Chapter 233 Using My Palace
After hearing this, Hu Huanxi frowned and said, "It's been a year since I took over Dingfeng. During this year, I have folded up all businesses that are not profitable or have no hope. If Zuiyuelou If there is no profit until now and the loss continues, then there is no need for this business to continue, I will ask someone to review the books, you tell the accountant, and I will ask someone to take over in a few days."
Hu Xing did not expect Hu Huanxi to say this. When he said that there was no profit, he was afraid that he would distribute dividends to Gongzhong.
Because the old man has a rule, but for any business funded by the public, 50% of the profits must be returned to the public. Over the years, he has always claimed to the old man that the Zuiyue Building does not make money. The old man does not believe it, but he treats it as a subsidy for the second room. , and he would not come to Zuiyue Tower for inspection, so he just fooled it.
However, this Hu Huanxi is not an old man. After she took over Dingfeng, she resorted to ruthless means. Whenever there is no profitable business, she cut it off with a knife.
Zi'an curled her lips into a smile. In fact, since Hu Xing denied that he had bought a little girl today, she knew he was lying.
If a person is lying, no matter how perfect the lie is, facial expressions and body language will betray him. Zian had minored in psychology, so he could tell Hu Xing was lying at a glance.
He denied it, but Hu Huanxi didn't express any doubts, but immediately believed him, but changed the subject for a moment. To Hu Xing, it was a fatal decision to abolish Zuiyue Tower.
So, he didn't dare to answer Hu Huanxi's words, but instead obediently changed the subject, "By the way, sister, you said you wanted to find a girl, whose family does this girl belong to?"
Only then did Zi An make a sound, "My lord, this girl is mine. Some people said they saw her being sold into Zuiyue Tower."
"You are?" Hu Xing looked at Zian, and looked at her again. Although she sat here silently, her aura was not inferior to that of the Eldest Princess and this little bitch.
"My name is Xia Zian."
Xia Zian?
Hu Xing is really not unfamiliar with this name at all, or it can be said that people in the capital are not unfamiliar with this name. The future princess regent, the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, and the king of Liang who repented of marriage were not condemned, and even got it. Appreciation from the Regent and Empress Dowager.
I heard that she also knows medical skills for no reason, just like the little bitch in their family, she used to be a submissive little girl, but she suddenly became able to understand everything.
This is really strange, how come these women have risen one by one recently?
"It turned out to be the daughter of the Xiangfu, disrespect and disrespect!" Hu Xing said with a fake smile.
"Young Master, you are serious." After Zian knew Hu Huanxi's plan, he was not in a hurry, and sat calmly waiting for Hu Xing to send him up.
Hu Xing asked: "Miss Xia just said that someone saw the little girl being sold into the Zuiyue Tower with her own eyes? Did this person make a mistake?"
Zi'an shook his head, "There should be nothing wrong, because the person who sold her said it himself, and he is not afraid of the son's jokes. This girl offended me, so I got angry and said that I would sell her. When the housekeeper heard it, she said Thinking that I was really going to sell her, I took it to the Zuiyue Building on my own."
By saying this, Zian was tantamount to telling Hu Xing that it was her fault that she sold Xiaosun, and had nothing to do with Zuiyuelou. If she handed her over, nothing would happen.
Hearing this, Hu Xing laughed, "So that's the case. Since it is said that it was really sold in Zuiyuelou, maybe Huaniang didn't know it. She was busy, so I am afraid I didn't notice it. These little things, or else, Xiao Ke go out and ask other people."
Zi'an smiled and said, "There's Mr. Lao. It's because I'm used to this girl serving by my side. Others are not used to it, so I come to bother Mr. Lao."
"You don't know each other, you don't have to be polite, miss, please wait a moment and have a cup of tea first." After speaking, he cupped his hands at Murong Zhuangzhuang and went out.
After the door closed, Hu Huanxi sneered and said, "I have always disapproved of keeping Zuiyue Tower, it should have been taken over long ago."
Murong Zhuangzhuang looked at her, "Come on, what do you want from helping me like this?"
Hu Huanxi yelled that she was wronged, "Didn't the princess misunderstand me? Where is there any request? It's just a favor."
"Don't tell me, right? Then I will be favored by this favor." Murong Zhuangzhuang gave her a sideways glance, and said angrily.
Hu Huanxi sneered, "I really can't hide anything from the princess."
She straightened her expression, "It's like this, the Tai Tuo has been in close contact with the old man recently, and intends to come to propose marriage for His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Marriage proposal? Isn't there already a candidate for the princess? Xia Wan'er, the daughter of the Xiangfu, the queen has given her orders." Murong Zhuang Zhuang said strangely.
"Xia Wan'er is the Crown Princess, but she can still have Liang Di Liang Yuan." Hu Huanxi said flatly.
Zi'an and Murong Zhuangzhuang looked at each other, the empress and Tai Tuo are really careful planning.
First let Xia Wan'er be the crown prince's main concubine to consolidate the power in the court, and then marry Hu Huanxi as Liangdi. Then, with the power and financial resources, and the Hu family as a great source of water, what can they do?
Murong Zhuangzhuang joked: "It's good to be a prince Liangdi. In the future when the prince ascends the throne, the princess concubine will be the queen. No matter how poor you are Liangdi, you can become a concubine and give birth to a prince. You will be a noble concubine."
"Yes, you don't want to bury me, whether it's the imperial concubine or Liang Di, whoever you like should go, I, Hu Huanxi, don't care."
Zi'an smiled slightly, "However, it's not easy to get away from being targeted by the empress and the Taifu."
"No," Hu Huanxi pouted, "It just so happens that you came to me, so I have a backer."
"You are shameless, a little girl is doing such a big favor for me." Murong Zhuangzhuang snorted.
Hu Huanxi smiled and said: "Businessmen, it is inevitable that they will be more cheeky. The princess is used to it."
Murong Zhuangzhuang turned his head to look at Zian, "Look, her thick skin is even worse than yours."
Now it's Zi'an's turn to yell out, "When did I get thick-skinned?"
"What do you think?" Murong Zhuangzhuang snorted.
Zian thought for a while, well, she is indeed brazen enough to grab a lot of backers, but why not use her connections? Isn't that a good thing? No matter how independent a woman is, she also needs helpers. People live in a group society. Many things cannot be done by one person, and connections can be won back by one's own ability.
Or in other words, having connections is itself a manifestation of ability.
Seeing that Zian was speechless, Murong Zhuangzhuang said: "Only Bengong is so stupid. In our Great Zhou Dynasty, women were mostly teased by men in the palm of their hands, but Bengong was used repeatedly by you two girls. , who made me soft-hearted?"
"Didn't you also watch one good show after another?" Zi'an remembered Chen Liuliu's words, and couldn't help being angry and funny.
"That's right, it's not a loss!" Murong Zhuang said generously.
