    Seeing that this was the case, the head of the Zhuang family knew that it would be impossible not to show up. He stood up, walked between the eldest wife and the second concubine, and said tremblingly, "Hua Ying, Xiumei, we are all a family, If you have something to say, don't hurt the peace. Prosperity is the life of the fourth nephew, how can it be said that it will end? Now that the imperial court has imposed a 'ban on opening the sea', the tea shop still has a bright future, how can it be just because of a momentary spirit. End everything? Everyone calm down and discuss slowly!"

    Zhuang Zhicheng kept comforting. No matter what, Shengshi is the first 'hand' chair in the Yangcheng tea shop. It is the largest in scale and has the most confidence. Even if it becomes a commercial tea later, it will have a good prospect. Their clan is still waiting for the money. Of course you can't just sit back and watch the tea line come to an end.

    The eldest wife looked at the second concubine opposite and snorted, "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to talk about it, but that some people 'force' people too much, which is intolerable! I won't compromise on the issue of the heir, and I will ask my uncle. Be in charge!"

    Zhuang Zhicheng saw that the eldest wife had such a tough attitude, so he had to look at the second concubine and said earnestly: "Xiumei, you are also a member of the banker, no matter who is in charge, you can still benefit from you less? Make money!"

    Originally, a concubine of Li Xiumei had no room to speak in front of the Zhuang clan chief, let alone bargaining like this, but just because her brother-in-law is the prefect of Hu, the prefect is a five-rank official, unless Li Xiumei committed something wrong. The big sin of forgiveness, otherwise who would dare not give Hu Zhifu face and embarrass his sister-in-law?

    The more scruples everyone is, the more arrogant and indomitable Li Xiumei becomes.

    At this time, she would not give in even more: "Uncle, how can you say that it is my persistence? The tea shop is the work of the master's life, and his surname is Zhuang. Of course, it must be passed on to the descendants of the Zhuang family. She Jiang Huaying has been reluctant to take the Zhuang family's head 'Hand over' come out! Until now, she would rather end the tea business than 'give it over' into the hands of the Zhuang family's descendants. The wolf's ambition is obvious! Although I am a concubine, Li Xiumei is no more honorable than her real wife, but I just don't want to bow to her! She doesn't want to compromise, and I won't compromise!"

    Speaking of this, the second concubine suddenly glared at her and raised her voice: "Since you can't compromise, it's better to split up the family! It's irrelevant in the future!"

    The eldest wife was startled when she heard her mentioning the separation.

    In fact, the eldest wife didn't mean to end the tea shop at all, this was just an expedient measure to 'force' them.

    The tea shop is not only the work of the master's life, but after so many years, she also has a deep affection for the tea shop. She has spent countless hard work and energy in it, which is equivalent to the child she raised alone. Where to end it?

    And what about the workers and slaves who have been relying on the tea shop to eat after the end? Many of these people have children from their own families. They split up with the master and worked hard together with the master. If they really want to close the tea shop, what should these people do? How should she compensate them? There are more slaves bought from outside, who work diligently, just to stay in the prosperous world and live a little life in peace, without having to be resold to be displaced and suffer, how should she settle them? What about those old and young? What should do?

    In the eyes of the eldest wife, these people are not just tools for making money. The eldest lady and the late Master Zhuang have the same idea. As long as they are dedicated to the banker, they feel that they have a responsibility to these people, and they are also the banker's a part. ( ) They cannot be cold-blooded and completely disregard the life and death of these humble people.

    Therefore, only when the prosperity is managed can everyone have a stable life.

    The eldest wife had the idea of ​​family separation a long time ago, although the master was the most opposed to family separation, believing that separation represented family discord and was the beginning of the decline of the family. Because separation means the dispersion of family funds in the first place, which is particularly unfavorable for family development. But if family conflicts cannot be resolved, separation is the only way.

    It's just that she didn't expect that the second room, who had always been reluctant to split up, would take the initiative to mention splitting up today. In order to avoid the easy separation of the family, the master said in his will that he was against the separation of the family, but if he really wanted to separate the family, it had to be unanimously approved by the three houses. It was because the second concubine refused to separate the family that they could not be separated.

    The eldest wife calmed down and said slowly: "Separating the family is also a way. The master said in his will that if we need to divide the family, we will take up 60% of the large room, 30% of the second room, and 10% of the third room. Let's do it, The tea shop belongs to my big house, and I will let Steward Jiang clean up the accounts for so many years, and together with the big house, I will give you 40% of the money!"

    Although they can't get the tea leads for the time being, they still have tribute tea in their hands. No matter how arrogant Mr. Hu is, they must be given tea leads in the face of the tribute tea, but the number of tea leads will definitely not be many, but slowly Slow down, will always find a way in the future to maintain the livelihood of so many people in the banker.

    The third concubine on the side was also very excited when she heard the separation. Although it was only 10%, it belonged to her completely. In the future, if she had support, she would no longer have to look at other people's faces!

    Qin Tian and Zhuang Xinyan on the side did not expect such a situation, they both felt strange, how easy is the second concubine? Willing to take only 30% of the banker, if that's the case, why is she still fighting so hard to be the head of the family?

    Sure enough, as soon as the eldest wife's voice fell, the second concubine laughed: "Jiang Huaying, you are really interesting. You can't even get tea leads in the future. What are you doing in the tea shop?"

    Speaking of this, she suddenly restrained her smile and sank her face, "The tea shop belongs to me, the prosperous world without tea is worth a few dollars, and 30% is already cheap for you! This dealer's mansion belongs to you, As for the money in your account, I don't care about you anymore, you two should share it!"

    After hearing this, the eldest wife turned pale with anger. The tea shop includes the hoarded tea leaves, so many slaves, ships, the scale that has been formed and the relationship between the various routes, which only accounts for 30% of the dealer, and definitely accounts for 60%. She never thought of taking advantage of her, but she actually took the share that belonged to her with a lion's mouth! Moreover, when the tea trade is in their hands, with the way they do business, how can there be good results? Isn't this the effort of the master to push so many workers into the fire pit?

    "Li Xiumei, are you crazy? You're really a lion! Even if there is no tea at the tea shop, it's definitely more than 30%!" The eldest wife said angrily.

    "You're not reconciled, aren't you, that's good, all are sold, and the tea shop has also sold the slaves. I want to see how much money a tea shop that is so valuable in your eyes is worth!" The second concubine exclaimed!

    When Qin Tian heard this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Before he could react, he heard the eldest wife's "excited" words, "The tea shop can't be sold! The slaves can't be sold!"

    Zhuang Mingxi, who was on the side, suddenly laughed and said softly: "Auntie, since you have already planned to end the tea shop, why are you not willing to sell the tea shop? Isn't this inconsistent?"

    "It turns out that this is a trick for you, eldest sister, and I almost fell for you, eldest sister!" The second concubine also covered her mouth and sneered.

    The eldest wife's face turned pale, and only then did she know that she had fallen into their trap.

    Qin Tian and Zhuang Xinyan looked at each other and felt each other's nervousness and anxiety. Things didn't go in the direction they expected, and the other party was far more difficult than they thought.

    Qin Tian couldn't help but look at Zhuang Mingxi, who was sitting on the chair with a slight smile. It was certain that the whispers she had just whispered in the second concubine's ear were exactly what she was talking about, but she could actually see through the eldest wife's thoughts. Coming up with such a temptation method within a short period of time, this little 'girl' mind is not generally terrible.

    As if feeling Qin Tian's gaze, Zhuang Mingxi raised his head to look at her, the smile on the corner of her mouth condensed, and she looked at Qin Tian coldly. After a while, she showed a faint smile again, and then turned her head away .

    The second concubine smiled very proudly, as if she had taken the initiative in the matter, "Masters of the clan, you must have seen it, the eldest sister doesn't want the tea shop to close the door, this person, you can't be too arrogant 'Private', if you want to dominate everything, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world? Uncle, you are the head of our banker, and you can only be the master of this matter!"

    The eldest lady was trembling with anger, but she couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while.

    Hearing this, Zhuang Chengzhi already had an idea in his heart, he turned to look at the eldest wife: "Hua Ying, it's not my uncle who told you, since you don't have the intention to close the tea shop, why bother to fight for your will? When I get older, the relationship between Xin Chuan and the prefect is so close, I think..."

    Before he could finish speaking, Manager Xu suddenly rushed in from the outside with a flustered expression on his face, "It's not good, it's not good, Madam, something big has happened!"

    As the chief shopkeeper of the tea shop, Xu Fuquan has always won the trust of the eldest wife for his calm and thoughtful work. At this time, his panicked appearance was something the eldest lady had never seen before. Ignoring Zhuang Zhicheng's words, he turned to face Shopkeeper Xu, and said in surprise, "Manager Xu, what happened, sit down first, have a drink of tea, and speak slowly!"

    The rest of the people were also very shocked when they saw this. For a while, they didn't care to say anything else, they just looked at the shopkeeper Xu.

    Manager Xu sat down on the chair, took two sips of the tea that Yueniang had brought over, and took a few deep breaths before saying, "Eldest madam, tribute tea... Huqiu..."

    Hearing the word "Huqiu", the eldest wife's heart skipped a few times and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with Huqiu?" Her voice trembled uncontrollably.

    Shopkeeper Xu's hands trembled, and the cup fell to the ground with a "bump" sound. At the same time, two lines of tears fell: "Huqiu is ruined! Someone wants someone to forcibly rob Huqiu tea, and the monks of Huqiu Temple. They had a dispute, killed several monks, the abbot set fire to the Huqiu tea tree in a fit of anger, the abbot died, and the tiger hill tea was gone! There is no tiger hill tea in this world anymore!"

    The eldest lady only felt a "hum" in her head, and murmured twice: "Huqiu... Master..."

    After speaking, his eyes darkened and he fainted.
