Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 272

Qin Song was clear about this, as his position when he entered the officialdom was related to law.

I knew those laws by heart, but unfortunately I never had to use them again.

Qin Song felt a little embarrassed by what she said.

Ye Xi thought that since the other party agreed, the next matters of selecting and opening a shop would be left to him.

From this we can see whether he is capable of doing the job, after all, the matters in the future will be the most difficult.

Ye Xi didn't waste any time and made her requirements clear, and asked Qin Song to open the branch within a month.

Qin Song didn't expect Ye Xi to be so rude and really treat him as a subordinate, but he also admired Ye Xi for being able to make his requirements so clearly.

When seeing Qin Song off, Ye Xi stuffed a bag of silver into Qin Song's hand, the amount of silver in it far exceeded the one or two taels that he had promised to give him.

"I know that your aunt is seriously ill. Apart from the one ounce of silver I promised to give you, the rest is for your medical treatment. It is also a token of my appreciation as the employer.

If you need money to open a shop, just tell me. All I have done is to ask for your loyalty and diligence."

Qin Song felt the weight of the bag of silver and roughly guessed how much it was.

It was indeed a big deal. He was not unshocked. It was like helping someone in need, this was the real deal.

"Qin will definitely be loyal and dedicated." Qin Song said.

"You don't have to work so hard. It's just a small business. Just go for it, sir. I hope to see your results."

Ye Xi didn’t know whether she had really picked up a treasure, but she decided to give it a try anyway.

After seeing Qin Song off, the next thing to do is to deal with that uncle, Old Li.

The escort found out yesterday that Old Li was "accidentally injured" by his fierce daughter-in-law because he instigated his son to pull out the seedlings in the field. He has been recuperating at home recently and has not gone out in the past few days.

Ye Xi looked at the green seedlings in the yard and felt that there was no need to rush.

Ye Xi let Qin Song do it freely, and she was naturally happy to have some free time.

Today she was very happy to see the seedlings growing well, and she was in a good mood when walking on the street.

Suddenly, they heard some noise at the corner of the street. She walked closer with her bodyguard and saw that several young beggars were surrounding an old man in tattered clothes.

He said, "You old fool, how dare you beg here without even checking whose territory you are in? I'll beat you to death!"

Ye Xi then remembered that begging for territory division was not a new thing throughout history.

However, the other party was so old that he could not withstand the punches and kicks of these young people. Ye Xi quickly asked the bodyguard to bring the man out.

When the young beggars saw that it was a big man skilled in martial arts who attacked them, they could only let the man go while cursing.

When Ye Xi wanted to leave with the bodyguard, the old man who was beaten actually spoke and seemed to know Ye Xi.

"Thank you for rescuing me, otherwise I would have died here. You're still here?"

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Ye Xi wanted to respond politely, but after hearing the second half, he turned around and carefully observed the old man in front of him.

His clothes were different and there were some scars on his face, but Ye Xi still recognized him.

Isn’t this the farmer named Lao Li?

"Uncle, why are you here? And you look like this?" Ye Xi asked in surprise. It was really like looking for someone in vain.

"I want to come here to beg and give some supplementary income to my family. After all, I can't do other work at my age." Old Li did not tell the truth.
