Chapter 228 Check and Balance
Xia Zongping let her look at her, but in fact she was very nervous. If Zhu Youning still held on to his previous offense, he might have really given up all his efforts.
The most important thing is that he clearly made a pioneer today and gave the old foxes the first. If he left, those people would lose their opponents in vain and those people would have more opportunities. He felt that his approach was simply to make wedding dresses for others, which was very unfair.
After a while, when Xia Zongping thought Zhu Youning would reject him, Zhu Youning smiled and said, "Okay. Then Manager Xia will rest for the time being when he goes home. Let's accompany me to the capital in two days."
Xia Zongping was stunned at first, then finally let out a long sigh. The big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground and bowed: "Yes. Then we'll wait for news from our boss."
Zhu Youning nodded, said goodbye to Xia Zongping, and got off the carriage under the maid's service.
Xia Zongping turned sideways and watched Zhu Youning's carriage gradually fade away, then sighed and went home.

Chang'an Restaurant at the same time.
In the spacious private room, Fang Wenjing was sitting upright in the first seat and closed his eyes to rest.
On his side, several shopkeepers who should have gone back were gathered here.
Yu Qingyun sighed and said, "I didn't expect that the boss's attitude would be so tough. He didn't even consider the identity of the boss Xia in Hangzhou, so he asked Manager Xia to resign. I couldn't help but wonder if the boss was afraid of Manager Xia's power and deliberately wanted this person to leave so as not to cover up his sharpness?"
"It's possible." Dong Ze echoed: "Although the boss is as elegant as a lady and looks like a well-behaved cat, in my opinion, she is clearly a little fox wearing a well-behaved skin, and she is cunning in her heart. You see, she doesn't move from beginning to end, but everything is developing according to her thoughts, and it actually suppresses us."
"Yes." Several people nodded at the same time.
Recalling what had just happened, Qiu Xinghua couldn't help but sigh: "The boss is so determined and so cunning. It is probably not easy for us to seize the decision-making power, so we have to think of another way."
"That's true." Yu Qingyun also said: "A woman from the boss's family should be in trouble again, right? Then, she said she would marry her husband and children, and she would still want to continue to interfere in our business? Anyway, I don't want to listen to the command of a woman. Are we experienced shopkeepers not as good as her, a woman?"
"Shopkeeper Fang Da, you also think of a solution. After all, among us, you met the boss the earliest, and you also know her the most."
Everyone looked at Fang Wenjing together.
Fang Wenjing opened his eyes and shook his head with a serious expression and said, "I have said a long time ago that everyone should not underestimate the enemy. Just as Manager Dong said, even though the boss is a young girl, she is actually unfathomable. I know this best. Today we did not get the decision-making power while the boss just came out of seclusion. She was prepared and we would have no chance in the future. Everyone should stop this for the time being."
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and couldn't help but feel that Fang Wenjing was exaggerating.
"If a person fails, a horse fails. Can the boss still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai?"
Fang Wenjing shook his head, he did not dare to make some things public.
These people only know that Zhu Youning is Miss Jiu of the Zhu family, a member of Qiangwei, the honorary president of the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce, the Imperial Merchant, and the Imperial Merchant Walking as an Earl's Earl.
But only he knew that Zhu Youning could not only walk with the cemetery of an earl, but also knew a real master and had a close relationship with him.
The powerful methods of Yan Boye amazed them.
With the fact that Yan Boye became a celebrity in front of the emperor in just six years, and as a merchant, the emperor could make the emperor ignore the words of "merchants who are unrighteous" in the "Holy Ancestors" and become the first "benevolent and righteous" among merchants to be personally named by the emperor. His methods, insights, and successful methods are not replicable, but only to be looked up to.
In this regard, the success of Chang'an Money House cannot be copied, which is similar to that of Yan Boye.
Fang Wenjing couldn't help but remember that Zhu Youning had just gone into seclusion and went to school six years ago. He happened to have a half-day rest for the fourth time. Yan Sui, who came to Fuyang, made an appointment to Chang'an Money House.
At that time, Fang Wenjing knew that Zhu Youning didn't expect anyone to know that she was the secret of the boss behind Chang'an Money House, so he was very surprised to see Yan Sui coming with her. He wanted to pretend to be concealed.
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at a separate private room, Zhu Youning, who was an eight-year-old girl at the time, said to Yan Sui openly: "Chang'an Money House is my business. I'll give you the brand of my honorary president. You have to take care of my business in the future."
Then he said to Fang Wenjing: "Young Master Yan is my friend. What are your difficulties? If I don't have time to come out to solve the problem, please ask him."
At that time, Fang Wenjing only felt that Zhu Youning and Yan Sui must be particularly good partners, otherwise they would not have given a trust.
But as his experience increases, Fang Wenjing now finds the taste from it.
Zhu Youning actually reserved whether he treated Yan Sui or Fang Wenjing. He introduced them to each other in order to restrict each other.
Now, six years have passed since then.
Chang'an Money House is growing stronger and stronger, Yan Sui has become the most beloved Renyi Bo around the emperor, and he has also become the big shopkeeper who has hundreds of shopkeepers under his command.
However, the mutual support and constraints of Yan's industry and Chang'an money houses are still playing a role.
At the very least, if Zhu Youning did not give the foundation to Yan Sui, he would have no doubts about taking Chang'an Money House for himself with Fang Wenjing's current methods and thoughts.
But now Yan Sui's existence has become Fang Wenjing's greatest fear, and he doesn't have the courage to do that.
Fang Wenjing is now being restricted, and he truly feels Zhu Youning’s terribleness.
She was only eight years old when she came up with this mutual restraint idea.
Fang Wenjing thought a lot, but in fact it was just a matter of breathing.
He stood up and said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. Listen to me, if this time fails, it will be difficult for the boss to use tricks. In order to avoid getting angry, let's give up for the time being."
Several big shopkeepers looked at each other, but had to nod and think of another way.
At this time, Zhu Youning had just returned home when a servant who was passing messages came to the mansion and said with a smile: "Miss Jiu, the old man, please come to the national government immediately."
Zhu Youning's silence over the past few years has made those who are red-headed and white in the Zhu family less polite to her.
The servant's behavior surprised her and she couldn't help asking: "Do you know what grandfather is asking me for?"
