Du Qi stayed at Guiyi Lane for the entire night and did not return home. He had been out frequently these few days and had informed his mother and the Jeong Clan in advance. Although the Jeong Clan doted on him, the Jeong Clan was extremely strict with him. If he did not report and did not return home at night, who knew how he would be punished when he returned home.
The night passed in the blink of an eye.
Early next morning.
Du Qi was waiting at the city gate early in the morning. Before nine in the morning, carriages carrying boxes of tea leaves arrived one after another. After all the goods entered the city, they were brought to Du Qi's table.
The leader was called Su Shisan.
He did not have a name. Because he was ranked thirteenth, he was called Su Shisan. He was the person Jin Wuque had arranged to be in charge of the delivery. He usually did not appear outside. Today, he was in charge.
Su Shisan came to Du Qi's side and said in a low voice, "Young Master, everything in Mount Zhongnan has been cleared. Our traces have all been cleaned up. "
"Good!"
Du Qi nodded.
He took a deep breath and said, "Let's go!"
The group headed straight for the Yin Clan's shop. Although the journey from the southern part of the city to the northern part of the city was quite far, the group of people made the best use of their time to hurry. Hence, they did not spend much time before they arrived at Yongxing Square in the northern part of the city and arrived at the back door of the Yin Clan's shop.
They were not going through the front door but the back door.
All the goods had to be stored in the warehouse.
When Yin Changqing heard the news, he arrived early. When he saw Du Qi, he smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Mu, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you here for a long time. Some of the merchants who have placed orders have already sent people to ask when the goods will be delivered. Now, we're just waiting for your tea leaves. "
Du Qi reached out and took out a tea leaf from a box. He opened it in front of Yin Changqing and said, "Young Master Yin, the quality of this batch of tea leaves is very good. However, I would like to have tea leaves that are better than the best in the world, but this batch is not as good. If you want to improve, you'll have to wait for the next batch. "
"Come, take a look!"
As he spoke, Du Qi handed the tea to Yin Changqing and said, "Take a look and smell it."
Yin Changqing took it and sniffed it.
The faint fragrance of the tea entered his body.
His spirits were lifted as he exclaimed, "Wonderful, truly wonderful! You said that these tea leaves are far from being the best tea in the world, but in my opinion, they aren't that far off. Shopkeeper Mu, with you in charge of the tea frying, this young master can rest assured. "
He had no doubts about Du Qi.
The reason was very simple. In Yin Changqing's perception, Du Qi was on the same line as him. The two of them earned money together and shared glory and loss together. Therefore, the tea leaves that Du Qi brought out must be of the highest quality. Only in this way could he and Du Qi continue to earn money.
This was a very simple principle.
Du Qi chuckled and said, "Young Master Yin, please check the tea leaves delivered here again. Then, prepare for the handover. The weight of the tea leaves has been recorded clearly. "
Yin Changqing flicked his sleeves and said, "What's there to count? I believe you. Let's go, let these people unload the goods and send them to the warehouse. Let's go in and count today's money. "
"No problem!"
The corners of Du Qi's mouth curled up into a smile.
He waved his hand and his subordinates began to move the goods. Du Qi and Yin Changqing strode in and soon arrived at the main hall of the tea shop. Du Qi took out the account book and explained everything. He said, "Young Master Yin, the total price of today's tea leaves is nine thousand six hundred and fifty-eight strings of coins. After deducting the small change, it's nine thousand six hundred strings of coins."
Yin Changqing said seriously, "No, there's no need to deduct the small change. It's how much it should be. Shopkeeper Mu, this principle is set now. In future transactions, it will be the same. How much money is, is how much it should be. "
Du Qi smiled inwardly when he heard that.
Because Yin Changqing owned the shares, he did not bargain at all. This was a good thing for Du Qi.
Du Qi said, "You're right, Young Master Yin. I'll keep that in mind." Du Qi paused for a moment and said, "Young Master Yin, I'll hold a banquet at my residence tonight to celebrate. Also, I'll have to pass your share to you tonight. "
"Sure, no problem!"
Yin Changqing agreed without hesitation.
Yin Changqing immediately arranged for the nine thousand six hundred and fifty-eight strings of coins to be delivered.
If it were when he was working with Cai Youde, Yin Changqing would not be so easygoing. He would never settle everything in one go. But now, it involved his own money, so Yin Changqing didn't hesitate at all and settled all the money directly.
Du Qi got the money and got up to leave.
Yin Changqing also got busy and began to deliver the tea leaves he had just received.
Du Qi did not care about Yin Changqing's arrangements. He brought all the money back to his residence in Guiyi Lane and quickly delivered the money. He also dismissed the people in the residence. He changed his clothes and removed his makeup before leaving.
There was nothing in the house.
There was no one.
Du Qi went back to the Number One Tea Shop in Yongxing Lane after a while. When he returned, Qianxue came up to him. She went to the second floor and brewed a cup of tea for Du Qi. She stood behind Du Qi and massaged him. She said, "Young Master, has everything been settled?"
"Yes, everything has been settled!"
Du Qi nodded and replied, "Starting from the tea mountain in Mount Zhongnan, the entire system has been cleaned up. Although the tea mountain in Mount Zhongnan is controlled by Jin Wuque, it is also controlled behind the scenes. The person in charge of the tea mountain in name does not know. "
"So, we can't get anything out of the tea mountain. We can only find out that someone paid to buy the tea leaves and created the scene that Yin Changqing saw."
"As for the place where the tea leaves were processed and the place where the tea leaves were sealed, they have all been removed. The ground is clean and there is nothing left. Moreover, there is nothing left in the residence."
Du Qi said, "Now, I am looking forward to the scene when Yin Changqing finds out. Sigh, I am looking forward to it!"
Qianxue's beautiful face was full of smiles. She said, "Young Master, from beginning to end, you have earned nearly 13,000 strings of cash from Yin Changqing. Such a large sum of money is not a small sum for the Yin Family Tea Shop. Especially when the problem of the tea leaves is exposed, it will be enough to make the Yin Family Tea Shop suffer. Young Master, you are really clever. "
Du Qi shook his head and said, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, there are loopholes in our plan. If Yin Changqing had not been blinded by money and was not in a hurry to make money. Then, he would not have been schemed against like this. This time, it was against Yin Changqing, so the plan succeeded. If it had been someone else, it might not have succeeded. "
Qianxue said, "No matter what, it succeeded."
"Yes, it succeeded!"
Du Qi leaned back and leaned on Qianxue. When his head leaned back, it touched something soft. This caused Du Qi's heart to flutter and a look of intoxication appeared on his face.
So comfortable!
