Chapter 366 What a great trick to make friends out of nothing!
Chapter 366 What a great trick to make friends out of nothing!
The ministers who happened to be approaching the door paused for a moment, and after just a few breaths, they suddenly quickened their pace!
It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early!
There was a big treat as soon as they arrived. Isn't this the blessing for them to work hard while having fun? !
"Good luck, Master!"
"Master, how are you?"
A group of upright people happily paid their respects to Emperor Mingze, and then happily stood in the corner, briefly forgetting the purpose of their visit.
Anyway, they are here mainly to show their faces today, so let’s not talk about those little things!
Eating melon is important!!
Jiao Hongmiao: “…”
Jiao Hongmiao gritted his teeth and relied on his willpower to resist the urge to beat up his colleague.
The blue veins on his forehead couldn't stop throbbing.
Eat! Eat!
Just know how to eat!
Eating everything will only harm you!!
At the same time, he was also very conflicted.
——He really wanted to know what his bastard brother had done, but he didn't want to find out about it in such a "lively" situation.
However, the little girl's voice rang out happily, and she didn't care at all whether Uncle Jiao, who was exposed by her, was happy or not, or whether he would die socially or not. She just ate the melon in her soft and sticky childish voice, with a sense of beauty that showed she didn't care about the life and death of others at all.
Jiao Hongmiao closed his eyes tightly.
The trend of eating melons finally blew on Jiao Hongmiao.
[Hmm... it's a bit messy... let Chengcheng sort it out first...]
Sitting on the armchair covered with several layers of cushions, Jiang Yingcheng frowned, his round eyes full of confusion.
[The main property of Uncle Jiao’s family is registered in the name of the nephew of his uncle’s wife’s sister’s husband’s family… er…]
This relationship was too complicated. Jiang Yingcheng only read the information once and felt dizzy. He felt like his head was filled with so much gossip.
All the ministers present followed the little fellow's thoughts and tried to figure out the relationship. They had only figured out half of the relationship when they all turned their gazes to Jiao Hongmiao with a dull look on their faces.
You are really good at getting around! !
Jiao Hongmiao lowered his head and slowly swept his toes back and forth over the small open space in front of him.
Ok……
this……
He also has his own difficulties.
Although the dynasty did not prohibit the family members of officials from doing business, his identity as the Minister of Revenue still caused many inconveniences and he inevitably had to be more cautious...
By registering the business under the name of such a distant relative who was hardly a relative, he could, on the one hand, avoid many attacks from his political enemies; on the other hand, he still held the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, so he did not have to worry about the other party turning the tables.
This move has only benefits and no harm. He just made a mistake that all the ministers of the Ministry of Finance in the world would make. To round it off, he did nothing wrong!
[Hmm... yes, they are relatives!] Jiang Yingcheng's brain failed to activate, and he simply and roughly defined the relationship between the two.
[Although this relative is the owner of these shops on the surface, in fact, they are all managed by Uncle Jiao’s wife.]
[Uncle Jiao trusts his wife very much and never interferes too much in matters... Wow! It seems that Uncle Jiao is still a good family husband! ]
Although this kind of thing is nothing in modern times, if it happens now...
That is a truly valuable quality!
Jiao Hongmiao couldn't help but reveal a smug look on his face. He held his head high and puffed out his chest, shouting in his heart at the top of his lungs -
Correct!
That's right!
Just promote him like this!!
He is such a good husband who loves his wife.
[But it was precisely because of this that Uncle Jiao's brother had an opportunity to take advantage of it! ]
The smile on Jiao Hongmiao's lips froze.
Hearing the words of praise coming from the little guy's heart, he was so excited that he forgot for a moment that they were talking about such a fatal message.
[Uncle Jiao's younger brother lied that he had a friend who introduced him to a huge order and wanted to order a large amount of goods from Uncle Jiao's business. Because it was introduced by a family member, Aunt Jiao did not doubt it and agreed to it on the spot.]
Jiao Hongmiao was stunned for a moment, and then a chill went from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!
He actually had some impression of this incident!
Some time ago, his wife suddenly became in a good mood -
It’s not that she was in a bad mood on weekdays, but during that period of time, every time they met, her face was filled with an unstoppable smile, and she was in high spirits and extremely busy.
She was very secretive. When asked what she was doing, she would laugh happily but refused to tell him what was going on. She even claimed that she would give him a surprise later.
Later, he learned from others that it was his incompetent younger brother who brought a huge order to the family.
——How relieved he was then, how angry he is now.
Good job Jiao Hongxi! You were waiting for him here!
it is good!
Well done!!
[What a great trick to create a friend out of nothing and sneak into Chencang! ]
[This is a complete trap! ]
[That man was the gangster he hired. He stole the deposit from the Jiao residence. Only the goods that Aunt Jiao was about to deliver were real!]
Jiao Hongmiao's ears were filled with roars, and his nerves were tense and stretched into a straight line. He even felt that if someone just touched him a little bit again -
"Click——"
Suddenly, an extremely subtle and crisp sound rang out, and was infinitely amplified on his fragile nerves.
Jiao Hongmiao raised his head suddenly with red eyes and looked fiercely in the direction where the voice came from!
"Forehead……"
Minister of Rites Chu Jiaxu took out a handful of melon seeds from somewhere, and when he saw Jiao Hongmiao looking at him, he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Want some?"
Jiao Hongmiao: “…”
Jiao Hongmiao: “???”
Are they still human?
Are you still human? !
【ah! ! 】
The little guy on the seat suddenly let out an earth-shaking roar in his heart.
[Because of the delay in the construction period, Aunt Jiao has not had time to hand over all the goods to Uncle Jiao's brother. It may not be too late to stop it now! ]
Jiang Yingcheng, who was sitting peacefully on the armchair, suddenly twisted into a caterpillar: [No, we can't delay any longer, Chengcheng has to find a way to tell Uncle Jiao immediately! ]
Jiao Hongmiao's grief and anger were finally relieved a little at this moment.
Woohoo, it still has to be his little dumpling!
The pain was worth it!!
As for the little guy's little note...
It’s not that we can’t save—
Jiao Hongmiao turned around and met the eyes of Lu Yao who was among the crowd of onlookers.
Lu Yao nodded in understanding and stepped forward: "Brother Jiao! There's a thief in your house!!"
Jiao Hongmiao: “…”
Otherwise you might as well kill me.
Even though the process was not satisfactory, Lu Yao finally succeeded in reporting the news. After obtaining the approval of Emperor Dao Mingze, Jiao Hongmiao left the place in a hurry.
Jiang Yingcheng finally resolved the important matter that had been weighing on his mind, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
[It’s good that Uncle Jiao knows about this! ]
But speaking of money—
[Why hasn't Brother Li Feng come back yet? ] Jiang Yingcheng's mouth pursed, [Brother Tong, Brother Tong, quickly help Chengcheng check what the two of them are doing? ! ]
The Qingliu present: "..."
How on earth are these two connected to money?!
