Chapter 630: Rich Couple
Luo Junhe frowned and refused coldly: "There is no need to go to the City Lord's Mansion. We are just here to sell rice. There is no need to trouble the City Lord."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuntang glared at him, and quickly stood up and said, "Lord City Lord, don't listen to him. This is our first time coming to Liangzhoukou, and it is our honor to meet you. My husband is naturally willing to be your friend. Please, Lord City Lord, take good care of us in the future."
Jiang Wangbei's dark face began to relax at this moment.
He was just saying, how could anyone be so ignorant as to reject his invitation in public?
It turns out that the couple don’t even have a consensus.
But no matter what, as long as Ji Yuntang agrees, it will be fine.
Jiang Wangbei had no idea that the reason why Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe refused and agreed respectively was to give him the illusion that they wanted to get to know him.
They must go to the City Lord's Mansion, but if they agree directly, it will seem that their purpose is not pure.
Therefore, Ji Yuntang came up with this idea and asked Luo Junhe to cooperate with him in acting out a play.
He played the bad guy and he played the good guy to dispel Jiang Wangbei's doubts.
She knew that if she and Luo Junhe were selling rice here, the other party would inevitably doubt their identities.
The distance between Lin'an City and Liangzhoukou is even farther than that between Liangzhoukou and the capital. She didn't believe that Jiang Wangbei would be able to find out their identities in a short time.
Both parties had their own purposes in mind. Seeing that Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe agreed to go to the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Wangbei was too lazy to waste words with them anymore.
He made a "please" gesture and said, "In that case, Mr. Yun and Mrs. Yun should pack up and follow me to the City Lord's Mansion."
Jiang Wangbei was about to leave, but Ji Yuntang suddenly said, "Lord City Lord, wait a minute."
He turned to look at Ji Yuntang, "Madam Yun, do you have any questions?"
Ji Yuntang glanced at the people standing not far away, pointed at the rice in front of him, and said:
"Many people have already paid for the rice. Lord City Lord, you have to let my wife and I sell all the rice first before we follow you to the City Lord's Mansion."
"Business people should be honest. If we don't give rice to people after they pay us, then wouldn't my husband and I be considered dishonest? How can we set up a stall and do business in the future?"
Jiang Wangbei: "..."
For a moment, he couldn't find any way to refute Ji Yuntang's words.
When he first arrived, he noticed the rice they were selling.
His original intention was to have Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe bring the rice to his City Lord's Mansion and then give all the rice to him.
After all, as the city lord, even though he had been eating the best refined rice, he had never eaten such full rice.
Jiang Wangbei couldn't help but want to try it. What was the difference between this rice and the rice he had eaten before?
But he couldn't say such words because of his face.
Jiang Wangbei originally thought that after arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe would definitely take the initiative to give him some rice out of courtesy and etiquette.
But unexpectedly, the other party said he wanted to sell the rice before him.
What qualifications do those untouchables have to eat such good rice?
It would be a lie for him to say that he was not angry, but Ji Yuntang didn't care. She called the people over and soon sold out the remaining 500 kilograms of rice.
After selling everything, she was still happily counting the money and then shared it with Luo Junhe.
"Husband, look, we have earned a total of twenty taels of silver today."
When Manager Cao and Wang Dafu heard this, they almost fell to the ground.
She sold over a thousand kilograms of rice and only made twenty taels of silver in total. I don’t know what she was so happy about.
If they were to sell it, it would be impossible to get less than five thousand taels, right?
Unexpectedly, Luo Junhe reached out and touched Ji Yuntang's head, and said lovingly: "Madam is really amazing. She can already sell things by herself."
"From now on, you will be in charge of our family business. I will be there to assist you. As long as you are happy, that's all."
Wang Dafu and Manager Cao: "!!!"
The two of them almost vomited blood.
They thought it was amazing that the couple could get together.
One is not good at business, and the other is a top love expert.
With people like this, won’t this entire business be ruined in the future?
Ji Yuntang collected all the money he had earned, then took Luo Junhe's hand and walked in front of Jiang Wangbei.
"City Lord Jiang, aren't we going to your City Lord's Mansion? We can set off now."
Although Jiang Wangbei felt a little sorry that the rice was sold out, he had already said it, and it would be inappropriate not to take them with him now.
Thinking of this, he curled his lips and smiled, "Then Mr. Yun and Madam Yun should follow this city lord."
Liangzhoukou is quite large, and the City Lord’s Mansion is not far from here.
Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe walked about 800 meters and saw a magnificent house in front of them.
Looking around, the house is magnificent, with a towering and majestic vermilion gate, and green tiles and eaves arranged in an orderly manner. In the center of the gate, there is a vermilion plaque hanging with three large gold-plated characters "City Lord's Mansion" inscribed on it.
At the entrance, there are two large stone lions, looking majestic.
Before Luo Junhe entered, he glanced at the outer wall of the City Lord's Mansion and could tell at a glance that it had been renovated recently.
The paint on it hasn't dried yet, it's no more than a month old.
Nowadays, the land in Liangzhoukou is dry all year round, and the people are penniless, but Jiang Wangbei actually has extra money to renovate his house.
This shows what?
This means that the other party has more money than he imagined.
Luo Junhe couldn't help but wonder what kind of industry could provide him with such a rich source of funds?
By the way, it can also make him willingly stay in Liangzhoukou and serve as the city lord.
Jiang Wangbei got off the sedan chair and said to Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe: "Mr. Yun, Madam Yun, this is the City Lord's Mansion."
"My humble abode is simple, please do not mind. Please come in."
Ji Yuntang stood at the door and said politely with a smile: "No, no, Lord Jiang's mansion is much more beautiful than I imagined."
"I thought that the houses in Liangzhoukou were all loess, blue brick and thatched houses. Today, when I came to the city lord's mansion, I found that there was something else inside."
"It turns out that there is such a luxurious house in Liangzhoukou. The city lord knows how to enjoy it."
As Ji Yuntang spoke, he gave him a thumbs up.
Jiang Wangbei: "..."
Jiang Wangbei: "!!!"
For some reason, he always felt that Ji Yuntang was deliberately plotting against him, but he couldn't find any evidence.
