Chapter 1557 Preliminary tasks, my love brain (16)
Yang Zhiyi took away the Xiao family's opportunity to curry favor with Marshal Yuan in order to stabilize his reputation and status as the successor to the Xiao family. However, Xiao Zhanyang had known Marshal Yuan for many years, and although they were not particularly good friends, they always met each other.
After all, he asked for so much money, so his attitude towards Yang Zhiyi had always been indifferent, accepting the money without any respect.
Regardless of the front or side, there is no intention to support him as the head of the Xiao family.
but……
how to say.
He also did not support Xiao Hongling.
After all... No matter how you put it, Yang Zhiyi is Xiao Hongling's biological father, even if he is a bride-in-law. As long as he does not object, it is natural for Yang Zhiyi to be in charge of the business. Even if Yuan Dashuai has status, there is no reason to interfere in other people's housework.
He didn't pay much attention to Yang Zhiyi, but he just gave the original hint.
It's a pity that the original person doesn't understand.
Xiao Hongling understood, so when she heard that Marshal Yuan was looking for Yang Zhiyi, she was as surprised and panicked as if her own mother wanted to take the mistress in and make her illegitimate son the heir?
"why?"
Xiao Hongling's round face was solemn.
Grandpa has been dead for four months. Although the Xiao family's "dedication" has come, Marshal Yuan has never treated Yang Zhiyi with false words. Yang Zhiyi wanted to visit the house several times, but the Marshal refused.
Why were you invited in person this time?
"Yes, is there something wrong with the war in Lingnan?"
Lingnan was being attacked by the invaders. Marshal Yuan sent his henchmen to lead the Yuan family army to resist the foreign enemies, but... In the land of China, he was not the only warlord. There were several warlords who did not want to see him become powerful and were bribed by the invaders. Mingli Secretly, he caused a lot of trouble for Marshal Yuan.
even……
When Marshal Yuan was injured by a stray bullet and died, they were secretly responsible for it.
"Yes, the war situation in Lingnan is indeed not going well. A team of grain trucks was hijacked by my second uncle. We don't have enough military rations on the front line, so we want to find a solution from the merchants in Haishi!"
Yuan Zhiyi sighed.
In troubled times, food is hard currency, and those who have the most food reserves are not warlords, but wealthy businessmen from various provinces and places, no matter what business they are doing, right?They all have houses and beds in their names.
Cloth merchants like the Xiao family have thousands of hectares of land outside the city.
After all, the Xiao family supports more than 2000 workers, and these workers all support their families, and they all rely on working for the Xiao family to make a living.
The Xiao family's wages are half ocean and half grain!
With no land in their name, relying solely on business was too restrictive. Moreover, in the troubled times, the tenants outside the city who helped them farm could be regarded as a kind of force.
Xiao Zhanyang can be regarded as a 'soldier' in disguise.
It's a pity that Xiao Hongling, who is only 11 years old, cannot take over this power. The tenants who are illiterate are the most feudal people. There are adult men and the masters of the house are there. Who would trust a yellow-haired girl!
"Marshuai Yuan wants to ask my dad for food?"
"When?" Xiao Hongling's face was as dark as water.
"Yes." Yuan Zhiyi nodded heavily, "Three days later, a banquet will be held in my villa. My second uncle invited the top 100 businessmen from the Haishi Trading Company, including your father."
Marshal Yuan did not mean to praise Yang Zhiyi, but...
Being able to participate in a banquet of this level shows that he has gradually been accepted by this class.
Xiao Hongling's face was extremely solemn. However, looking down at her 11-year-old body, no matter how anxious or chaotic she was, there was nothing she could do.
The way is step by step.
Eat one bite at a time.
No matter how high or far Yang Zhiyi climbs, even if he reaches the sky, just one word from his own mother can drag him down and make him fall bruised and bruised.
Ultimately, the biological mother is the key.
"Okay, Zhiyi, I understand this matter. I will slowly think of a solution. Now, I want to ask you something." Xiao Hongling forced out a smile and looked up at her deskmate.
Yuan Zhiyi lived up to the name of a playboy and a good-for-nothing. If Xiao Hongling said it was hers, it would be hers. This person had no hatred at all. He just thought that Hongling was the best and most powerful, so the topic was changed very smoothly. "What's going on?"
"Hong Ling, just me...how can I help you?"
Yuan Zhiyi had an expression on her face that said, "I don't know anything except eating, drinking and having fun."
Xiao Hongling also understands the characteristics of his friends, who are unable to do anything and eat everything without leaving anything, but, "...you can really help me with this matter."
"No one else can!"
"Oh, is it just me?" Yuan Zhiyi widened her eyes shyly and asked curiously, "What is going on?"
"It's just... you've been a dandy for so many years. Do you know where in our sea market there are more beautiful men selling their bodies?" Xiao Hongling asked quite bluntly, "I want the kind of, um, heavier makeup, bones. Be softer, be literate, know how to be romantic, and especially be a man with a good-looking face!"
Yuan Zhiyi:......
? ? ? ?
Big eyes, big doubts.
"Ah? No, Hong Ling, although I don't have much ability, I'm only 12. How come I'm a dude?" Yuan Zhiyi twitched the corners of her mouth, almost wanting to scream, "I treat you as my best friend, you Why are you scolding me?"
Oh oh oh!
So sad!
The truth hurts so much.
"Okay, okay, you're not a playboy, you just love to play. I misunderstood you!" Xiao Hongling apologized nonchalantly, and then immediately asked: "So, where is it?"
"I want a man!"
"Uh, Hong Ling, your words are too easy for people to misunderstand. You are only 11. What kind of man do you want?" Yuan Zhiyi smiled wryly and spread her hands.
"Then it's up to you, just tell me!"
Xiao Hongling urged impatiently.
Yuan Zhiyi blinked, "Man... uh, Hong Ling, although I can get along well in Haishi, there are many people who support me and take me to eat, drink and have fun, but look at me!"
"I'm only 12 years old, and my second uncle is famous for being ruthless. Those people beat me and they beat me. Who dares to lead me to look for flowers? What's more, the person he's looking for is a man!"
Are lives different?How to fall in love!
"You don't know at all?" Xiao Hongling raised her eyebrows in disbelief.
Yuan Zhiyi chatted and hesitated, "It's not like I don't know anything about it. The kind of man you mentioned can be found in theater troupes. Maybe there are also Bada Hutong. Another one, we are in Hong Kong City. Do you know about the racecourse built here?”
"There have always been some pretty boys there who want to eat soft food. They all look very fashionable and oily. It is said that some of them are expensive and can speak foreign languages."
"One more thing, you want to find someone with our knowledge. Well, I remember... there is a person in the Lihua Song and Dance Hall who specializes in this. It is said that he buys children from poor families and carefully cultivates them, just like the ladies of the ancient times. , there is absolutely no shortage of literary talents, but little prostitutes like that are reserved for dignitaries who are good at this kind of thing, and I am afraid they are not very old."
After Yuan Zhiyi finished introducing them one by one, she remembered to ask, "Hong Ling, why are you looking for such a person?"
