Chapter 52: Incentives

Bai Wei wanted to talk to Bai Meng, but knocked on the door and went in.

Bai Meng sat at the table and gathered his heart to copy books.

She pulled open the stool opposite her and sat down, holding a book to read it. The above notes and insights were written in a elegant and free manner, like white clouds emerging from the mountains.

"Brother, I need you to help me." Bai Wei took out a silver note and put it to Bai Meng's hand. "I became famous at the treasure selection conference, so I took a step. No one can tell which step I can take in the future. The merchant's status is too low, and I need you to protect me."

She was well aware of this when she was in modern times. Her father took over the family business and married her mother in a business marriage. Her uncle was in politics and her aunt came from a political family. She helped her uncle in her career. The two brothers helped each other, and the family business became bigger and bigger.

Bai Wei put this lesson into practice. She went to business and Bai Meng went to politics. She gave him some money and took care of her business and complemented each other.

As for whether it can be done, she has never thought about it.

Don’t ask about the harvest, but ask about the hard work.

Bai Meng's hands trembled, and the ink almost dripped into the book.

He stared at the silver notes worth 100 taels, and the atmosphere was mixed. A set of books cost more than ten or twenty taels of silver, and he bought nearly one hundred taels of gold in the Four Books and Five Classics.

"I borrowed my colleague's books to copy, so I can't use so much money." Bai Meng pushed the silver bill back, "Mild bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, and her parents just bear it, and she will become more serious. It just happened that this incident happened and changed their ideas without compromise."

Bai Wei brows and smiled brightly, "Brother, I know you won't let me down!" She turned to a smile, "Mom said you burned the book."

"It's all broken books." Bai Meng lowered his eyes, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, don't worry about money, you're more than enough for your study."

Bai Meng and her had the same idea and reached an agreement. Bai Wei was very happy and could let go.

With a "bang", the door closed.

Bai Meng held the silver notes and remembered Bai Weiying's smiling eyes. He couldn't help but curl his lips, and flipped out the account book from the drawer and recorded the hundred taels.

——

Jiang and Bai Qifu stood at the door. Seeing Bai Wei coming out, Jiang quickly asked, "How is it? Have you persuaded your brother?"

Bai Wei sighed and shook her head.

Jiang's tears flowed down, hating that he was useless and letting his children suffer grievances with her.

"The child's father..." Did we really do something wrong?

Bai Qifu was frowning.

Bai Wei said: "Dad, I'll take medicine to her and the villagers are watching, and they have long been unfilial. You can do it and obey your breasts and let her live in our house and make trouble. My brother and I will not stay in this family. As children, we can watch you and your mother be bullied by breasts. We are too cowardly and incompetent, so we would rather be clean without seeing it."

She forced Bai Qifu to make a choice. Although he would not change his attitude immediately, Bai Qifu would also consider it if Old Lady Liu made excessive requests in the future.

"I……"

Bai Wei interrupted Bai Qifu, "Dad, think about it carefully. The second uncle has run a shop in the town for so many years. He is very smart. Where can he do a money-lossing business? He really loses money and can live in a wealthy mansion. He hires a maid to serve him at home? Bai Yuyan was removed from the list, and his family has a foundation in the town. How can he collapse so easily? It really falls, and Master Zhao is helping him! My grandmother's heart is so tilted that he always values ​​the second uncle and sister-in-law's children. I became famous at the treasure selection conference. She came from the town immediately. She must be unfair for Bai Yuyan and blamed me for stealing Bai Yuyan's glory. You don't want our family to be successful, just listen to the milk."

Leaving this sentence, Bai Wei was about to go to the shed, and saw Mr. Zhao standing at the gate of the yard and knocking on the door.

"Miss Bai, I have something to discuss with you." Mr. Zhao came in directly wearing a cloak, "When he entered the house, he said?"

Bai Wei pointed to the backyard and said, "Work Shed."

Mr. Zhao's eyebrows thumped. Which merchant saw that he didn't hold good tea to entertain him, and was afraid of neglecting him? Bai Wei actually took him to the shed!

"Master Zhao doesn't like it, so please give me some advice." Bai Wei had intended to focus on cooperating with Master Zhao before. Master Zhao didn't value her and gave the shop she wanted to Bai Yuyan. She also held Bai Yuyan high in the treasure selection conference. She had already made a fuss in her heart. How could she be polite to treat her?

Mr. Zhao smiled bitterly, not daring to show off his promise, so he went to the shed.

The shed was clean and tidy. Mr. Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the bench, and looked at the bulging hill bags on the bed.

"My brother."

Mr. Zhao smiled and gave Zhaofu a wink.

Zhaofu respectfully placed the wooden box on the lathe.

Bai Wei raised her eyebrows, "What's this?"

Mr. Zhao made a call, "Gamble."

Bai Wei opened it and contained the land deed, which was the shop she liked.

"Bang" Bai Wei closed the lid and poured herself a cup of tea, "I don't understand what you mean."

Mr. Zhao reached out to serve the tea, Bai Wei took it to take a sip, and the smile on his face stiffened.

"Miss Bai, how are you treating guests?" Zhao Fu stared at his eyes, looking unhappy. Mr. Zhao was willing to give up his stance to find her, as he was polite to her, but he even dared to stick gild on his face!

Bai Wei sneered, "Customer? Where are there guests? Master Zhao came uninvited. Is he considered a guest?"

Mr. Zhao now understands it. Bai Wei is a woman with a small heart and holds grudges!

He only realized at the treasure selection conference that Bai Wei and Bai Yuyan were not in dealing with each other. Here he revealed the information that he wanted to cooperate with Bai Wei, but instead refused to give the shop to Bai Wei and gave the shop to Bai Yuyan. Bai Wei was probably remembering him in his heart.

"Ms. Bai, I'm here to discuss cooperation with you today. I hope that the unpleasant things before will be turned over." Mr. Zhao took out a painting and placed it in front of Bai Wei. "Mr. Duan revealed the news that he is interested in cooperating with the leader of this generation to carve a jade piece. I provide the raw stone and artwork, and please cooperate with Mr. Duan to carve it."

Bai Wei sneered in her heart and secretly scolded the old fox!

Duan Luochun was a palace jade carver who specialized in carving jade for noble people. After retiring and returning home, no works were passed down from generation to generation. Now he threatened to come out of the mountain, no wonder Mr. Zhao put his ideas on her.

But she is also a tempered person!

"How much money is Mr. Zhao going to spend this time?"

Mr. Zhao smiled mysteriously and was confident, as if he would agree to the question.

"I have a stone yard for you to provide jade materials, and the price is 10% lower than the market. As for this shop, it is worth the handmade fee." He took a teapot and brewed a cup of tea, took a sip, and glanced at Bai Wei casually, "How about it, this time I am full of sincerity?"

Bai Wei was silent. Mr. Zhao was indeed a very smart person. He knew that she had money in her hands and started with her needs.

What she lacks is jade material.

The conditions are very attractive.

"There are three jade ores in Baoyuan Mansion, two of which are controlled by Wen and Jiang families in Annan Prefecture. Sixty percent of the jade artifacts in Xiyue Kingdom come from these two families. The remaining jade ore is in my hands. Think slowly, I will wait for good news in the mansion." Mr. Zhao analyzed the situation and stood up to say goodbye, "Tomorrow, I will greet Mr. Duan."

At this moment, Bai Wei realized that Mr. Zhao was not simply trying to carve jade. He probably wanted to use Duan Luochun to hold Bai Yuyan before, but now he bowed his head to show his kindness to her, which is the same purpose.

Mr. Zhao was willing to spend a lot of money to pay Duan Luochun. He is really just a jade craftsman in the palace?

Bai Wei was holding the artwork and was worried. She had never seen Duan Luochun and did not dare to agree to Mr. Zhao rashly.

She glanced at the bed, and Bai Li was still sleeping soundly.

Fang fell ill, and Liu Lu did not come to learn the arts this day.
