Wanjin Lady

Chapter 137 Everyone wins

After much thought, the young lady opposite let out a long sigh, and finally made up her mind, "Then please remember what you said, Young Master Yuan Liu! After my father and I get the money, you will never bother us and let my father and I go home on our own!"

Become!

When Yuan Jing signed and sealed the thin piece of yellow paper, he finally felt relieved!
Wen Family Winery... is now owned by Yuan Jing!
As a witness, Mr. Liu from the Cao Gang was the first to congratulate him.

"Young Master Yuan Liu's courage... I'm afraid even your aunt from Bozhou would be ashamed of herself upon seeing him! No wonder I felt at first sight that Young Master Yuan Liu had a striking demeanor and a promising future!"

Mr. Liu was quite generous. After all, even if the deal didn't go through, there was still righteousness. "An invitation is worse than an accidental meeting. Young Master Yuan Liu, your wish has come true. I'll set up a table for you all at Yuxian Tower. Come! Come!"

When Zhao Gaolou saw Yuan Jing put down his fingerprints, he knew that the matter was a done deal and his face was filled with worry.

Yuan Jing smiled and put his arm around Zhao Gaolou's shoulders. "Brother Zhao, I know you've had a hard time traveling all the way here. It's not easy coming here from the southeast! Brother Zhao, please treat me tonight. I'll drink three cups as an apology, okay?"

After that, he called out to the Wen family father and daughter, "Come too! Come all!"

Zhao Gaolou pushed his hand away, saying coldly, "I won't be eating this meal today! I still have a mess to deal with at the winery."

He perfunctorily bowed again, his face filled with impatience. If there weren't others present, Zhao Gaolou would have disregarded his dignity and scowled. "Congratulations, Sixth Master Yuan... This winery... you'll have to keep an eye on it... My Xingyi Winery has been doing very well over the years. Perhaps in time, I'll be able to meet the Yuan family in Bozhou!"

Yuan Jing laughed heartily. Since he had won the game, why not be more respectful?
The sarcastic words of a loser are the most beautiful words in the world.

"Oh, winning and losing in business is a common occurrence. Brother Zhao, please don't act on impulse!"

Zhao Gaolou was embarrassed and left in anger.

As soon as Wen Wan got on the carriage, she immediately instructed her companion, Master Tu, "Master Tu, please follow that Shopkeeper Zhao and find out who he is."

The father and daughter got into the car one after another. Seeing that there was no one around, Wen Weiming was relieved. He opened the car curtain and watched Yuan Jing go back happily to raise money.

Wen Weiming was completely unsure about what had just happened in the winery.

"There's something strange about this!" After the joy of selling the wine at the normal price faded, Wen Weiming finally came to his senses. "That Boss Liu..."

He looked at Wen Wan and said firmly, "You are the one who invited the sedan bearers!"

Wen Wan smiled slightly, "Father has a sharp eye."

"Hmph, I just realized it now. I just listened to Liu Hui flattering Yuan Jing one sentence after another, and with just a few words, he made the boy lose his mind. Then he waved his hand and gave him 3,500 taels."

Father Wen frowned slightly. "The winery's prices have indeed been raised, but I'm worried... that guy won't pay. You're driving up the winery's prices, but Yuan Liulang isn't stupid. What if he plays into your plans, signs the contract to send Manager Liu and Manager Zhao away, and then exhausts us? How will you respond? As far as I know, that guy gave all his cash to Zhu Wang, and now he can't even make a single penny!"

The young lady's voice was calm and firm: "No."

"Why?"

"Yuan Jing is determined to take over the winery. If he fails this time, he will be unable to explain himself to both the Cheng and Yuan families. Moreover, Yuan Jing is a bastard and has a bad relationship with his mother. He is counting on taking over our winery to ask for credit from Madam Yuan."

Wen Wan turned her head, a faint smile still on her face, "Don't worry, father. As long as the contract is signed, no matter whether Yuan Jing stole, borrowed, or robbed, he will hand over the 3,500 taels with both hands."

Unless Yuan Jing uses despicable means and sends someone to assassinate him.

This is something... we have to be on guard against.

Wen Wan said, "Father, please let Master Tu stay with you closely for protection these days."

Old Man Wen immediately chimed in, "Are you afraid the Yuan family will resort to underhanded tactics?" "It's better to be prepared than not, we have to take precautions."

Old Man Wen quickly pulled out a sharp dagger from his sleeve. The cold light flashed across the inner wall of the carriage like daylight. Wen Wan subconsciously narrowed her eyes.

Then got angry.

"Dad! You told me to put a feather duster under my pillow for self-defense, and you used a dagger yourself?!"

Am I still your favorite little girl?

Father Wen snorted coldly, speaking with confidence, "You have Zhao Heng guarding you every step of the way, while I, your father, am left alone at your bedside. Could it be that an assassin has come, and you want me, a fifty-year-old man, to fight him with my bare hands?"

He looked her up and down again and saw the slightly tense arm muscles on his daughter's slender arms.

It was obvious that beneath my daughter's thin and sweet appearance...she was full of martial virtues.

Wen Weiming blew his beard and glared, "Don't you think I don't know that you and Zhao Heng practice in the backyard every morning!"

Wen Wan felt guilty, "How about... I call you for morning exercise tomorrow?"

"What do you want me to do? To see you and Zhao Heng being so affectionate? To see you calling that guy "Brother Heng" all the time to fool him? To see you ordering that guy to massage your shoulders and legs?"

What kind of dog food should I eat so early in the morning?
Thinking of Wen Wan's previous suggestion of "killing the father and keeping the son," Old Man Wen sounded the alarm for Wen Wan anytime and anywhere, "I'm warning you, if you dare to think of driving Zhao Heng away, I've prepared ten feather dusters in my room!"

Wenwan laughed.

I thought to myself that this old man was too stubborn.

After she quietly sends the man away to a place hundreds of miles away, can Old Man Wen, an old man, still look for a son-in-law in the end of the world?

Thinking about the feather duster, Wen Wan did not argue with Old Man Wen.

She pointed to the heavens and swore with a pious look on her face, "Don't worry, Dad, I've given up on that idea a long time ago. We're a family, we'll always be together through thick and thin."

Father Wen was satisfied this time. "I am very pleased that you can figure this out."

But then he thought about the fact that the winery he had worked hard for most of his life was now owned by the Yuan family, and he felt mixed emotions.

Wen Weiming was extremely reluctant to leave, so he lifted the car curtain and looked at the scenery on both sides of the path to the winery.

Then there was a heavy sigh.

All fame and glory will return to dust and ashes to ashes.

At least... he can retire with his two daughters and some cash. As long as Yuan Liulang doesn't cause trouble for his family again, all this will be worth it!

Some are happy and some are sad.

Wen Weiming was worried, but Yuan Jing looked happy.

On the return carriage, Yuan Jing saw Zhu Wang's tense expression and felt a tinge of guilt. His original plan was to give the Wen family a maximum of 500 taels of silver, drag them down to death, and then force them to hand over the deed to the mansion to Zhu Wang. Now, his sudden change of heart had ruined all that plan.

Thirty-five hundred taels was beyond his means, but it wasn't an exorbitant price either. Yuan Jing wasn't the only one to be deceived on his trip to Bingzhou; which grain merchant in Tianshui Prefecture hadn't suffered a huge loss?
It’s just that Yuan Jing has bad luck.

Yuan Jing made up his mind that if his father and aunt asked about it, he would use these excuses to get away with it.

Besides, this winery is owned by Liu, the boss of the Cao Gang, and Zhao, the manager of the Xingyi Winery. If I can beat these two, my aunt will definitely feel proud!
The Wen family winery was finally taken over by Yuan Jing... not Yuan Qi!
