"It's better if I don't." Mr. Wei glanced at the sky and saw that it was already approaching noon. He had official duties to attend to in the rest of the day and had no time to spend time here with such a little girl.

Moreover, the purpose of calling Li Qingyou here was just to test her. Since there is nothing going on now, there is no need to keep her here anymore.

"I'll leave this matter to you. It's getting late and Si Qi is about to finish class. You can go and play with him." Mr. Wei waved his hand and then added, "If anything happens to the Shen family,

Come report at any time." There was a condescension in his words that even he himself was not aware of.

Report anytime?

Are they treating her as their servant?

Li Qingyou felt very unhappy, but when he looked carefully at the other person's calm face, he didn't seem to mean it. He must have not noticed that this tone of voice made him feel uncomfortable.

After thinking about it again, I realized that it wasn't that the other party looked down on her, it was just the environment in which he had lived since he was a child. All the slaves in the yard were obedient to him. I heard that Mr. Wei was successful at a young age. Such a person has a sense of pride in his bones.

, and cannot tolerate refutation from others.

But then you have to be more careful when talking to him.

After Master Wei finished speaking, he stood up and walked out. He wanted to go to the barracks to check, but after walking a few steps, he found that there was no movement behind him. When he turned around, he saw Li Qingyou sitting on a chair blankly.

This reaction...could it be that I was so happy?

Li Qingyou was not happy and stupid, but was a little surprised. She looked at Mr. Shen blankly, frowning slightly, "Young Master, you mean that this business is going to be done, and you want me to do it?"

She thinks the former is normal, but the latter is abnormal.

She is young, has no experience, and is a girl. How can anyone trust her to do the business?

The so-called technology investment she told Third Young Master Shen before was sheer nonsense. The prerequisite for doing business in partnership is the same as making friends. The prerequisite is equal status. When getting married, one should be well-matched.

There is no such thing as equality in ancient times. To ignore class is to seek death.

"Why not?" Mr. Wei raised his eyebrows, his reaction to Li Qingyou was a bit strange. Shouldn't she be grateful to him happily?

Why do you seem so reluctant?

The current so-called business is just child's play in the eyes of the Wei family. What they value is the subsequent development, and since it is not convenient for the Wei family to take the lead, it is most suitable for the common people, the Li family, to take the lead.

It's just a play among children, and it won't be a big deal even if someone finds out. In short, the Wei family will not get involved in this business until it becomes a big deal.

The current profit is nothing in the eyes of the Wei family, but it is a huge sum of money in the eyes of the Li sisters. And she came all the way without being threatened, doesn't she want some benefits?

?

"I'm afraid this is not appropriate." Li Qingyou considered the words. The Wei family and the Shen family were like two big mountains to her. How could she be okay if she was caught between them?

Another point is that judging from the attitude of Mr. Shen, he wants to try his best to curry favor with the Wei family.

The Shen family is a family of officials, and so is the Wei family. There will inevitably be political involvement between them. When things go well, it's easy to talk about anything. But when things go wrong, they might fight to the death.

She doesn't want to suffer disaster when the devil fights with the king of hell. She just wants to be a small rich man in peace, save a thick dowry, and wait a few years to find a suitable husband and marry her brother off.

of.

The reason why she came this time was that she didn't want to offend the Shen family. On the other hand, she also thought that once the Wei and Shen families cooperated, she couldn't let her lead in vain, right?

She always has to give her some benefits. When the time comes, she can ask for some money and go back to sell Sibao Zhai. She has observed Sibao Zhai and knows that there is a large yard behind it, and the pigs, donkeys and chickens at home will not be moved there. question.

At that time, she can make tofu and sell books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones at the same time, and at least she will have multiple incomes.

Otherwise, the Wei family would be willing to give her a shop. Then she and her brother would move to Yuzhou Prefecture, and it would be easier to live with the Wei family behind them.

Anyway, I don’t want to have anything to do with them.

It's just that she thinks so in her heart, but she can't say it like that. She has to be tactful.

Next, Li Qingyou listed the reasons why she was not suitable, such as being young, inexperienced, a girl, etc.

Mr. Wei returned to the desk and sat down. While listening to Li Qingyou's words, he had a playful expression on his face and tapped the desk with his fingers. Finally, he suddenly said, "You don't seem to be willing?"

He was more curious about the reason for her unwillingness than her unwillingness. In his opinion, there was no reason for her unwillingness, so he immediately asked, "Why?"

Why, don't want to cause trouble? Li Qingyou rolled his eyes secretly in his heart.

"I told you, I'm not suitable." Li Qingyou looked at the other party suspiciously. Did she just talk about her feelings for a long time in vain?

I wanted to stop beating around the bush, but I felt that although Mr. Wei seemed to be easy to talk to on the surface, he seemed to be a very stubborn person. If I couldn't say a word well, if I offended him again, the gains would outweigh the losses.

While Li Qingyou was racking his brains to think about what to say next, he saw Master Wei raise his hand, "That's okay, just don't worry."

Don't worry, before Li Qingyou could say anything, someone came from outside to report that a deputy general wanted to see Mr. Wei.

In this way, Li Qingyou no longer had the chance to speak. Young Master Wei also sent a steward to discuss the next matter with Li Qingyou. After all, it was considered a business of the Wei family, so it was best to remain indifferent.

The sent steward's surname was Zhao. He naturally did not dare to neglect his master's orders and led Li Qingyou out of Tingyuxuan to the front.

Manager Zhao was about forty years old. He looked kind-hearted and should be easier to talk to. Li Qingyou tactfully told him that he didn't want to take on this hot potato and asked him to help tell Mr. Wei.

It's a pity that Li Qingyou overlooked one point. No matter how easy-talking Manager Zhao is, he is also a member of the Wei family. Naturally, he will do whatever the master orders. He can also see Li Qingyou's reluctance and understands her difficulties, but this is beyond his control. .

All he could do was to handle the things ordered by his master, so he advised Li Qingyou, "Miss Li, don't worry. Since the eldest son has spoken, he will naturally not just ignore her. If you have any trouble, just come to him." "

"Besides, I think this actually doesn't do any harm to the girl, does it?"

Not only does it have no disadvantages, but it also has great benefits. If you do this to others, your nose will be filled with snot and bubbles.

This is a time to catch the duck.

Li Qingyou had no choice but to agree, but when she thought about it again, it was actually not a big deal.
