Chapter 412

Ye Xiaotian and Tian Binfei had a pleasant conversation. They talked about the future of their cooperation, and their opinions coincided with each other. They couldn't help but urge each other to drink, and their expressions showed that they regretted not having met earlier.

Tian Miaowen saw this and couldn't help but feel angry and amused at the same time. It seemed that she had worried for nothing. The poor girl had a round belly and drank too much. She was already a little tipsy, and her pretty face was flushed with peach blossoms.

Tian Miaowen had no choice but to do this. Her eldest brother's poisoning method was very ingenious. He didn't poison her earlier, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't poison her later. Therefore, she had to eat a few more mouthfuls of food after a period of time to make her eldest brother afraid. As a result, she naturally drank too much and ate too much.

Tian Binfei quickly glanced at the girl with a mischievous look in his eyes. How could he not see the girl's protection of Ye Xiaotian? However, he didn't feel jealous because of this. Even if it was only because Ye Xiaotian was a partner that she valued, it was normal for her to protect him.

This action didn't necessarily mean that she had feelings for Ye Xiaotian. Moreover, from Tian Binfei's point of view, if the girl really had feelings for Ye Xiaotian, she wouldn't have used such a subtle method to protect him. Instead, she would have given him a stern warning before the banquet.

Because of this deduction, Tian Binfei was in a very relaxed mood. He even had the leisure to tease the girl. Only when he saw that she was really a little drunk did he show a friendly and appreciative attitude towards Ye Xiaotian, dispelling the girl's wariness.

Tian Binfei smiled at Ye Xiaotian and said, "Tomorrow, I will return to Guiyang with the girl. When will Official Ye come to Guiyang? You are now a local chieftain, no longer a lowly official. Lowly officials, on the contrary, have to guard their land. You should go to Guiyang more often and make friends with those big shots. It will be very beneficial for you. "

Ye Xiaotian smiled and said, "I will go. If I have the chance to go to Guiyang, I will definitely pay you a visit!"

Tian Binfei laughed and said, "You are very welcome! Come, let's drink another cup! "

"Dang!"

The sound of the cups and laughter was clear. Although there were only three people in the small reception hall, the atmosphere was very lively.

...

Zhan Boxiong was waiting anxiously. Tian Miaowen was safe and sound, and she and Ye Xiaotian had successfully escaped and returned to the Yang Family Fort. This was the first 'boot', and it really gave him quite a fright.

He had been anxiously waiting for the "second shoe" to drop. Whether it was to make peace or to send troops to suppress them, at least he would know how to deal with it. However, there was no movement from Ye Xiaotian and Tian Miaowen.

Zhan Boxiong waited for a long time, but nothing came. He waited until he could not sleep well. He really could not wait any longer. He thought for a while and ordered people to prepare a generous gift. It was full of supplements. He sent his housekeeper to the Yang Fortress to express his condolences and to test the attitude of Ye Xiaotian and Tian Miaowen so that he could respond in time.

If his Head Butler was given the cold shoulder or even beaten back, then he would have to immediately prepare for battle. If the other party could treat him with courtesy and accept his gift, then... even if the other party knew what was going on, they were worried that the situation would escalate. They were worried that if they did not handle it well, the chieftains would resist and even the Yang Fortress would be lost again. So they wanted to appease the conflict.

That way, they could continue to maintain the harmony on the surface. When he and the Yang Clan of Bozhou were connected through marriage, they would form a complete political alliance. They would not be afraid of Ye Xiaotian's provocation. He believed that even if the Tian family was unwilling, they would still be afraid of the existence of the Yang Clan of Bozhou and swallow their anger.

Although Zhan Boxiong's plan was good, it was a pity that he did not succeed. The chief steward he had sent had brought a huge gift with him. He was welcomed into the Yang Family Fort in a grand and courteous manner. Then, a little girl of seven or eight years of age came forward to receive him.

This girl was called Yang Rong. She was the first female chieftain in the three hundred years since the establishment of the Yang Clan. She "accepted" Zhan Boxiong's generous gift with a smile, then seriously replied to the housekeeper's question, "You mean Chieftain Ye? This is the Yang Fortress, and Chieftain Ye is my guest. There is no reason for him to stay here for long. He has returned to Tongren. "

The housekeeper was stunned for a while, then asked again, "Then... what about the eldest daughter of the Tian family?"

"Elder sister of the Tian family? She has returned to Guiyang. She is not a member of the Yang Fortress, so of course she will not stay here for long. "

The housekeeper returned to the Zhan Fortress empty-handed and told Zhan Boxiong everything that had happened. Zhan Boxiong was at a loss for a while and could only sigh with a face full of worry. He had given a generous gift for nothing. This "second shoe" did not fall on the ground. Should he fight the Ye Clan or the Tian family?

…

"First learned literature, but failed in three years. Then learned martial arts. Shot an arrow on the drill ground, hit the drum official, and was expelled. Then he learned medicine, made some achievements, wrote a prescription, took it, and died." This was a joke, but Ye Xiao 'an was a living example.

Big Brother Ye was not good at literature, martial arts, or business. There was really nothing suitable for him to be a role model.

Yu Junting was entrusted by Ye Xiaotian. She asked her housekeeper to secretly help Ye Xiao 'an set up a carriage and horse company. A carriage and horse company engaged in transportation. As long as you could stand firm, it was a profitable business in the Guizhou region.

Ye Xiao 'an's carriage and horse company was secretly looked after by the Yu Clan. Whether it was transportation on the road or selling goods, there were no obstacles. Logically speaking, he should be able to stand firm in Tongren and make a lot of money.

However, Ye Xiao 'an was careless in making friends. Under Yan Shiwei's introduction, Ye Xiao' an quickly made a group of scoundrels. When these people heard that Ye Xiao 'an was the brother of Chief Officer Ye, they immediately flattered him. Ye Xiao' an had face in front of them, so he immediately took them as his confidants.

When they heard that Ye Xiaotian was going to open a carriage and horse company, these people rubbed their palms together and wanted to help. They introduced their three aunts and six uncles to Ye Xiao 'an. Ye Xiao 'an did not refuse anyone. In the end, so many people with connections were all placed in the newly established Xiao' an carriage and horse company.

These people all relied on their background and connections. If they wanted to work, they would do it. If not, they would not show up for a few days. When the time came, they would go to receive full pay. Not long after, they led the other workers to slack off.

Once the management was chaotic, there would be a lot of trouble. Business should be done with a smile and welcome customers, but they acted as if people were begging them to transport goods. It was fine if they looked bad and said bad things, but because of the chaotic management, they often made mistakes.

The goods that should be sent to Leping were mistakenly sent to Pingding, delaying their business, and they had to pay a large sum of money. There were many similar cases. Even if there was compensation, who dared to use their carriage?

In addition, there were workers who stole the goods. Ye Xiao 'an had a strong background, so people did not dare to sue him. However, they could at least not take care of the business of Xiao' an carriage and horse company, right?

As a result, when Xiao 'an's carriage and horse company first opened, there was an endless stream of carriages and horses. Not long after, it became deserted. Ye Xiao 'an was also a person who did not know how to run a business. It was clearly bad management, but he believed the reason of his subordinates: the bad business was all because other carriage and horse companies discriminated against them, not because of the war.

Without business, there was no source of income. Saving money could also save some money, but he liked to pretend to be strong. There was clearly no business, but there were still enough people in the carriage and horse company. Not a single worker was reduced, and the full salary was paid on time.

At this point, his partners could not take it anymore. They took out real money, and what they wanted was the golden signboard behind him. They hoped to make a lot of money by following him. They did not come out to do good deeds.

"You want to take money? Deal! "

Uncle Ye was a particular person. If you wanted to withdraw money, then withdraw it. He would not stop you. If you lost money in the previous business, the loss should be shared according to the shares held by each person. However, Uncle Ye was a worldly person and would not argue with you.

If there was no cash, he would write an IOU, directly writing an IOU according to the full amount of capital invested. All the previous losses would be borne by him alone. The money would be regarded as a loan from him, and he would also give you interest monthly.

"A group of blind people! Who am I? At the beginning, I was talented but not recognized! How can a golden scale be a thing in a pond? Once it encounters a storm, it will turn into a dragon. Without you mediocre people holding me back, I can show my skills. In the future, when the money rolls in, you will all be jealous! "

However, those who had great ambition but little talent were simply incurable. There was no business at all in Xiaoan's Carriage and Horse Shop, but the expenses were not small at all. Every day he opened, he lost dozens of taels of silver. Finally, he lost nothing.

The former partners came to ask for interest and capital all day long with an IOU. Those who usually praised the boss's benevolence and righteousness with their thumbs up every day had no wages. They also blocked the door every day to ask for wages.

Uncle Ye finally felt something was wrong, so he called the accountant to settle the accounts. But the finance of Xiaoan's Carriage and Horse Shop was also a mess. When he needed money, Uncle Ye always opened his mouth and directly paid the money without even leaving a note. The accountant listed out the accounts one by one. Some of them he could remember, and some of them he could not remember if he had used them. After counting, he lost thousands of taels of silver, but he could not find any problem from the accounts.

Uncle Ye finally decided to sell the mules, horses, vehicles, and houses. First, he could pay the arrears to the men. As for those former partners, he would owe them first!

Uncle Ye was born in a poor family, so he knew the suffering of poor people. It was decided like this. As a result, those who cheated from the customers, took from the consigned goods of the customers, and completely ruined the reputation of Xiaoan's Carriage and Horse Shop. After that, they basked in the sun every day and didn't work and still got full pay. Each of them took a sum of severance money and left.

Yan Shiwei "heard the news" and came to invite him to have a drink. When he comforted him with kind words, he was surprised to find that Ye Xiao 'an, the reincarnation of the Boy of Good Fortune, was not depressed at all. He felt very good about himself and didn't care about the debt he owed.

"I was born to be talented, and I will come back!"

From Uncle Ye's point of view, the failure of this business was entirely due to the fact that his partners were not of one mind with him. His other partners had tarnished his reputation. As long as he could find the right opportunity, he would be able to make a comeback immediately. Eventually, he would be as rich as a country!

Wine was the medium of sex. After Ye Xiao 'an sang loudly and got drunk, he met a young woman on the way home. She was very attractive and had a lot of affection for him. They exchanged glances, and Uncle Ye was attracted by the young woman's eyes and went home.

The two of them were naked and making love on the kang when the wife's husband suddenly came home with a shoulder pole and stopped them. Big Master Ye, who was hit by the "Immortal Jump", was shocked and almost had a stroke on the horse.

So, under the threat of the shoulder pole, he wrote another IOU. It didn't matter, the fleas wouldn't bite if there were too many of them. Now he was just unlucky. Uncle Ye believed, "There will be a time when the wind breaks the waves. Hang the sail straight to the sea!"

Second Brother Ye conquered cities and seized land outside and won again and again. He returned to Tongren City complacently, but he didn't know that his precious big brother had lost his troops and land at home, which was a mess.
