Chapter 255 Mu Qingqing Arrives at the County City
"Ruotong! So, if there is an engagement, you...you are willing to marry me!?"
Zheng Changjiang looked at Sun Ruotong with excitement!
In the past two days, Zheng Changjiang has been immersed in Sun Ruotong's beauty trap. Not to mention going to find honeycomb charcoal, he even did not leave Sun Ruotong's side.
And this was actually the strategy of Sun Ruotong and Sun Qiu!
Because Sun Qiu has a big business now, he doesn't want the Eighth Prince to know about it.
At the same time, he needs to go to other county towns to discuss business by himself, so... Sun Ruotong must stabilize Zheng Changjiang.
But what Sun Qiu didn't know was that Sun Ruotong was also very interested in Zheng Changjiang!
Because, if Zheng Changjiang can be used well, he can take her away from the Sun family!
Although Sun Ruotong was highly valued in the Sun family, she knew that her father... favored boys over girls!
There is no way the Sun family will be handed over to her!
Although Sun Yaozu's life or death is unknown now, but... Sun Qiu also has an illegitimate child in secret.
Maybe after a while, a new heir will appear in the Sun family.
And she, Sun Ruotong, is nothing more than a victim of the Sun family!
"Mr. Zheng, you are so mean. I have already told you, but you still want to ask me."
"As long as you, Mr. Zheng, are willing to propose to my father, I will definitely marry you~" Sun Ruotong said shyly.
Zheng Changjiang looked at Sun Ruotong's beautiful appearance and couldn't bear to refuse her!
"Ruotong, you...don't worry! I...I will ask your father for marriage tomorrow!"
"tomorrow?"
Sun Ruotong was slightly stunned.
I didn't expect Zheng Changjiang to be so anxious.
His father is not in Luzhou County now, and it will take at least half a month for him to come back.
Thinking of this, Sun Ruotong said hurriedly: "Mr. Zheng, let's get to know each other for a few days. There is no rush to propose marriage~"
"Okay~"
"Good good!"
Zheng Changjiang has been coaxed by Sun Ruotong to the point of losing his mind. No matter what Sun Ruotong says, Zheng Changjiang will not refuse!
……
Two days later, on the fourth afternoon after Jiang Chen left Luzhou County, Mu Qingqing brought Chen Yuanyuan, Xu Meng, and a group of veteran soldiers to Luzhou County.
Looking at the huge city wall in front of him, Mu Qingqing couldn't help but smile!
"Hehe~ Luzhou County, here I come~"
As he spoke, Mu Qingqing led his men into the county town and went straight to the house that Jiang Chen had bought in Luzhou County.
After arriving at the house, the first thing Mu Qingqing did was to send someone to inform the Sun family that the honeycomb charcoal they had requested had arrived.
At the beginning, Sun Qiu and Jiang Chen purchased honeycomb charcoal worth 100,000 taels of silver. This time, Mu Qingqing asked someone to bring some over on the way.
However, there was quite a lot of honeycomb charcoal, so Mu Qingqing did not transport the honeycomb charcoal into the city, but left it outside the city.
But even so, it still attracted the attention of Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan!
"Jiang Chen's people brought dozens of carts of charcoal!?"
"What are they doing!?"
Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan were both shocked and hurried to the city gate.
As for the Sun family, since Sun Qiu was not there, this matter fell on Sun Ruotong.
Sun Qiu explained this matter before he left, so...Sun Ruotong didn't think much about it.
She found an excuse to get Zheng Changjiang away, and then took her housekeeper out of the city.
When seeing those dozens of trucks of honeycomb charcoal, Sun Ruotong was also slightly surprised!
Unexpectedly, her father bought so much!
And these dozens of cars are actually just the first batch!
One hundred thousand taels of silver are not just for these dozens of carts. The rest... needs to be transported slowly.
……
But according to the agreement between Jiang Chen and Sun Qiu, as long as the first batch of charcoal is delivered without any problems, the Sun family will pay Jiang Chen the full amount of 100,000 taels of silver!
Jiang Chen needs to transport the remaining charcoal within ten days!
"This is Miss Sun, right?"
After seeing Sun Ruotong coming, Mu Qingqing brought Chen Yuanyuan to Sun Ruotong.
"My name is Sun Ruotong. May I know who this girl is...?"
Sun Ruotong looked at Mu Qingqing and Chen Yuanyuan wearing bamboo hats with a look of shock.
Although both of them were wearing hats and their faces couldn't be seen clearly, but... their figures and temperaments were obviously extraordinary!
Especially Mu Qingqing, her temperament is invaluable!
This made Sun Ruotong feel incredible. Wasn't it said that Jiang Chen was just a small village chief?
Is there such a person around him?
"Haha~ We are Master Jiang's subordinates. Now that our master is not here, he sent us to deliver the goods!"
"Please inspect the goods, Miss Sun. If there is no problem, give us the banknote first~" Mu Qingqing said with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, Sun Ruotong gave the housekeeper a look, and the latter hurriedly took people to inspect the goods.
But Sun Ruotong looked at Mu Qingqing.
"Miss, I wonder what your name is and what your status is under Master Jiang?"
"Hehe~ My name is Mu Qingqing, and I'm the shopkeeper under Master Jiang~" Mu Qingqing smiled faintly.
Although the contact was brief, Mu Qingqing could feel that Sun Ruotong was no simple person.
Seeing that she couldn't get anything out of Mu Qingqing, Sun Ruotong stopped talking.
……
"Miss, no problem!"
Soon, the butler came back after checking the goods.
Sun Ruotong heard what the housekeeper said and smiled at Mu Qingqing: "Haha, Miss Mu, since the goods are fine, then let's do it this way."
"Here are 100,000 taels of silver notes, please count them~"
Sun Ruotong said this and took out a small wooden box and handed it to Mu Qingqing.
As the small wooden box was opened, ten silver notes worth ten thousand taels were revealed inside.
"Haha~ Thank you Miss Sun, the subsequent goods will be delivered every day in the future. Please send someone to receive them~"
Mu Qingqing took the small box and said with a smile on her face.
"Okay, no problem." Sun Ruotong agreed without hesitation.
At this time, Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan also came here.
"This is……?"
The two of them were also stunned when they saw the dozens of carts!
Such a big scene, what...what are they going to do?
When Chen Yuanyuan saw Xue Wenyan and Chen Guang, she introduced them to Mu Qingqing in a low voice.
After hearing Chen Yuanyuan's introduction, Mu Qingqing took Chen Yuanyuan to Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan.
"My little girl meets the two adults~"
"You are……?"
Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan looked at Mu Qingqing and the other person in confusion.
"I am the shopkeeper under Young Master Jiang Chen. Now that Young Master Jiang Chen has left, he has handed over everything to me. From now on... I hope you two adults will take care of me." Mu Qingqing said with a faint smile.
"The shopkeeper under Jiang Chen!?"
After Chen Guang and Xue Wenyan heard Mu Qingqing's identity, they were both stunned!
Both of them have seen the world!
This... this Mu Qingqing doesn't look simple at first glance!
Jiang Chen actually has such a talent under his command! ?
"Miss Mu, may I ask why you pull so much honeycomb charcoal..." After Chen Guang came back to his senses, he hurriedly asked Mu Qingqing.
Xue Wenyan also looked at Mu Qingqing hurriedly.
Now that everyone is eyeing the honeycomb charcoal, Jiang Chen is still trading with the Sun family on such a large scale. What... is he trying to do?
