C14 Undercurrents Surged

The originally calm Cangdale was now filled with water.

Ever since Su Ziwan had spread the news, people had been coming to visit the Su family. Without exception, all of them were stopped. With the excuse that the old master of the Su family was too ill to see guests for the time being, they were all sent away.

...

"What, you don't even want to see our Zhu family?"

The one who spoke was a burly man dressed in silk and satin. He was sitting at the head of an eight immortal table, munching on a chicken leg. The long servant who had just entered bowed and did not dare to look up.

"Master, I've made myself clear. But Housekeeper Su still won't let go. He still refused to say that Master Su is seriously ill and doesn't want to see guests."

This man's name was Zhu Qin, and he was related to the Su family. However, at this moment, he was also rejected outside the door. However, when he heard that he was rejected, he did not get angry. Instead, he continued to eat and drink in the restaurant.

"And the Hsu family's oldest servant also went today, and the Su family also refused."

The situation in the Hsu family was similar to that of the Zhu family. The only one who had yet to arrive was the Cen family.

"What is the Su family trying to do now? Do they have to wait for the Cen family to come before they can see them?"

Zhu Qin was already getting impatient from waiting. He had just bragged to the people in the restaurant that the Su family would definitely meet with the Zhu family, but fortunately, the food in the restaurant was good, and he started eating shamelessly again.

"Cen Kongqing, that good-for-nothing, what can he do? For such an important matter, he didn't come himself, nor did he send anyone over..."

Zhu Qin spoke as he ate, and his words were unclear, so the long servant could only reply perfunctorily.

In any case, this master couldn't say anything important.

However, as soon as he said that, many people in the restaurant burst into laughter.

Recently, in Cangdale, all those who appeared were famous figures in Lanshore. None of these merchants and family members were afraid of Zhu Qin. They said that Cen Kongqing was useless, but they didn't even look at themselves.

He couldn't even enter the door, yet he had the nerve to say that he was a relative. What kind of relative was he?

Zhu Qin was also a very generous person. He only cared about his own food and drink. He really didn't care about what those people thought. After all, the Hsu family did not go in anyway. If he did not want to go in, then so be it. Thinking of this, Zhu Qin tore off the other leg of the roasted chicken and started to eat it in big mouthfuls.

Right now, the entire Lanshore was paying attention to this matter. Even some of the small families and small merchants who did not accept the Su family's property had come to Cangdale to watch the show. This matter was related to the brand new reshuffling of the Lanshore.

Officials and commoners alike were talking about it.

This was exactly what Su Ziwan wanted to see. Since she was going to take over the Su family in the future, she would use this matter to spread her reputation. He also had to make some people give up on their thoughts that they shouldn't have.

In a short period of time, the influence of this matter in the Lanshore had even surpassed that of the border war.

Su Ziwan made Housekeeper Su refuse all visitors and directly set a location - Fragrant House. At that time, she would directly auction off all of those properties and convert them all into real money. There were some things that Su Ziwan did not even tell Su Lingyou. Therefore, he was not worried that any news would be leaked before this.

However, those people weren't the only ones who had come to the Cangdale City. Other than those who wanted a share of the spoils, there were also the worried stewards.

Su Ziwan looked at the stewards who were sitting and immediately sighed with emotion. However, she had no choice but to do so.

"All of you are elders of the Su family, so I won't be polite. From now on, I will be in charge of the Su family. Those who are still willing to follow me, stay. Those who want to leave with a business, let me know. I will explain it to the new owner when the time comes. If you want to leave, our Su family will return your freedom. Just take it as my thanks to all the stewards."

"Eldest Miss, please think about it carefully. It would be fine if you sold one or two shops, but how could you sell all the good farmland in the tea garden and the silver building? This was accumulated bit by bit since the ancestor of the Su family arrived in the South State. In an instant, he was dead. The ancestors of the Su family will blame us..."

The one who spoke was Manager Zeng, who was in charge of the property in Tianzhou. He was also a loyal servant of the Su family.

"Uncle Zeng, when did I ever think of selling the properties left behind by the old ancestor? But now that my big brother is seriously ill, how can we, aunt and nephew, defend this wealth?"

But how could the stewards believe this? The Su family was one of the largest families in the Lanshore. How could it just decline like that?

"Eldest Miss, what about South State?" One of the stewards mentioned the Su Clan.

Su Ziwan, who had a bitter expression on her face just now, instantly changed her expression: "What right do those people have to criticize our direct line of business?"

When these people saw Su Ziwan's change, their hearts suddenly sank. These people were all smart enough to roughly guess what was going on. However, the old master and the young miss had always been helping the people there. Why did their attitudes suddenly change so much?

However, even if they fell out with the clan... They would still have to inform the South State if they were to sell the Su family's properties. Now that the auction had started, he didn't even inform the main family. They couldn't guess the reason behind it either.

Seeing Su Ziwan's reaction, the stewards no longer discussed it. During this period of time, they had already witnessed the ability of the future head of the Su family. He was decisive and decisive. He could even sort out the old scores. There were many ways to deal with it that even they couldn't think of. Even Su Lingyou felt that this "sister" was quite similar to his father.

Although many of the stewards still had doubts, most of them were people who had followed Su Lingyou's father. They would not object to Su Ziwan's decision. As for the clan, it had nothing to do with them.

After everyone left, they looked for Housekeeper Su under the lead of Steward Zeng. They believed that Housekeeper Su must know something.

"Brother Su, we haven't been in Cangdale for the past few years, so there are many things we don't know. If Master and Miss don't want to tell us, you have to tell us. Selling the property of the Su family is not a small matter!"

Housekeeper Su saw that the people who came were all his confidants who followed the old master back then, and a few of them were even his good friends. He also knew that the Su family, which he had taken care of with great difficulty, would not be willing to let go just like that. However...

"I know you guys don't want to, but there's nothing we can do. Before this, both the old master and the young miss were seriously ill, and the people there were eager to take over the property of the Su family. If it wasn't for the blessing of the Su family's ancestors, the young miss would have recovered. Perhaps when the old master returned, the old man would come over. Fortunately, the old master left the young miss to marry into the Du family and then return to the family. Originally, the young miss could not hold on, but who knew that she would recover? And then there's the young miss. Everyone knows that she hasn't been well since she was young. As for the clan..."

Housekeeper Su was also a shrewd person and knew how to say these words. All the direct descendants of the Su family were suffering from illness. If it wasn't for the unexpected recovery of the Eldest Miss...

At this point, the few chief stewards also understood what was going on. The biggest variable in this matter was Su Ziwan. The young miss, who could have died, had unexpectedly recovered. Not only did he support the Su family when Su Lingyou was seriously ill, but he also got a lot of chips from the Du family.

If that wasn't the case, then Su Manjing's fate...

After Housekeeper Su fell silent, he gritted his teeth in anger and said, "I'll go out and talk about the news. Although I've been in Tian Province for the past few years, I still have quite a few connections. Even if Miss wants to buy it, she can't afford to lose money. Brother Su, please tell Miss that my Zeng family will follow the Su family for the rest of my life! "

" We are all indebted to the Old Master and the Old Master. Now that the Old Master is seriously ill, we will help Miss get through this crisis. As long as we are still alive, those old things in the South State won't be able to cause any waves..."

"I'll go to the restaurant and take a look. The eldest servant of the Hsu family is familiar with me. I'll go and find out what's going on."

"A few stewards have asked me about the Su family's tea garden. Old Li, come with me and ask for more information."

...

The stewards from all over the Lanshore quickly took action. Although some of them were old, they were all extremely loyal. Especially after Housekeeper Su's description, they understood what they should do at this moment.

In fact, Housekeeper Su didn't really know what the clan had done. Even the eldest miss of the Cen family had been complaining these past few days. The entire Su family had been on guard against the outside world since an unknown time.

But the Su family never doubted Su Ziwan's decisions, especially after she showed her outstanding ability.

Seeing that everyone had left, Housekeeper Su immediately went to find the eldest daughter. He had to tell the eldest daughter about the loyalty of the stewards. This matter was very important to the Su family at this moment.

Su Ziwan was watching people count things. Su Lingyou had already resigned, so this emperor's house could no longer be lived in. So he had to make arrangements as soon as possible to prevent himself from being flustered when he returned to the South State.

There were still a lot of good things in the warehouse, such as antiques and so on. It would be a lot of money to sell them all. So Su Ziwan was not worried at all about whether there would be any money in the future.

Only those properties were the biggest fat meat of the Su family. Which major power didn't have these few dead things in the warehouse?

As long as she threw away those hot potatoes, her life with Su Manjing would be easy.

After Housekeeper Su found Su Ziwan, he reported the situation to her and suggested, "Eldest Miss, these people have basically all followed the old master. You can leave the rest of your assets to them to manage. Firstly, they are familiar with each other, and secondly, they are more at ease."

"Then I'll have to trouble Housekeeper Su to help me keep an eye on them and remember the names of the people who stayed behind. I'll assign them later. This matter would take a lot of effort. After all, in the future, we will also need some capable people."

Seeing that Su Ziwan had agreed, Housekeeper Su was naturally happy. He was afraid that the young miss would clean up all the people and properties, so he brought Su Manjing back to the South State and found a place to hide.

The only thing was that the young lady had left so little property, a few farms and bookstalls, that the profits were not even a fraction of the profits of the tea garden.

Originally, he wanted to ask the master to persuade the young miss to stay a little longer, but he was stopped by Su Lingyou's words.

"If they stay any longer, it will take their lives!"

These words frightened Housekeeper Su, so he did not mention these things anymore.

Just as Housekeeper Su saw Su Ziwan, the servant at the door rushed over.

"Housekeeper Su, Housekeeper Su, the cousin of the Cen family is here!"
