The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 271 Will Jiang Suining fall flat on his face?

"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Suining chuckled and met Mei Qinnan's gaze.

The latter smiled and lowered his eyes, "To be honest, I really took advantage of Miss Jiang this time. I hardly worried about the whole thing."

"Since we are cooperating, there is no need to say all this. It was Qi Niang who told us the news in the beginning, otherwise we wouldn't have had so much preparation time." Jiang Suining said gently.

These words were naturally mostly polite, but when they came from Jiang Suining's mouth, they made people feel a lot more sincere.

However, Mei Qinnan did not spend much effort on this matter. From the beginning when they talked about the cooperation until now, Jiang Suining sent people to understand almost all the processes in between.

Jiang Suining brought the topic back to the topic and talked about some problems that he thought might arise in the bidding process.

Mei Qinnan originally thought that Jiang Suining would be unhappy, but she didn't expect the other party to react like this. Looking at Jiang Suining's serious and focused look, she was absent-minded for a moment.

However, Mei Qinnan concealed it very well and Jiang Suining didn't notice anything.

After talking about the things to pay attention to, Jiang Suining confirmed with Mei Qiniang whether there were any problems with the money. After getting a definite answer that everything had been prepared, he left Guangyun Tower.

Watching Jiang Suining disappear, Mei Qiniang slowly sighed and shook her head, "What a pity."

"Master, what's a pity?" asked the shopkeeper nearby.

"Watching Jiang Suining's behavior during this period, I really want to make friends with her. But unfortunately, she is going to suffer a big setback in the bidding for the land in the west of the city. And after that, it is naturally impossible for us to be friends."

The shopkeeper looked at Mei Qiniang, his eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "Master, I think that Miss Jiang is not as good as you. Although she did a good business before and gained some reputation, she still fell into your hands easily this time."

These flattering words did not make Mei Qiniang happy. Instead, she frowned and glanced at the shopkeeper.

"Liu Wu, you've been with me for so long, there's no need to say such things."

Liu Wu's smile was a little stiff. Seeing that Mei Qinniang's face was indeed unhappy, he quickly said, "Yes, I understand. Master, what about tomorrow's bidding..."

"Do as previously arranged."

She really wanted to make friends with Jiang Suining, but since that person had spoken, she and Jiang Suining could only be enemies.

……

The next day.

This public bidding for the land in the west of the city is the first time in history in the imperial city.

According to regulations, all those participating in the bidding need to arrive at the Ministry of Revenue before the hour of Si.

At one o'clock in the morning, Jiang Suining set out from home.

She brought Xier and Lin Jie with her. In addition, Jiang Mushi had nothing to do today, so he went with her to watch the fun.

When he arrived at the Ministry of Revenue, Jiang Suining stated his identity and purpose, and took out the certificate issued by the Ministry of Revenue a few days ago. He was successfully led to the auction place.

This time, the land in the west of the city attracted a lot of attention.

Although since the imperial court was interested in selling such a large piece of land and adopted a bidding method, the final price would certainly be high, many people still came with great interest.

As soon as Jiang Suining walked in, he saw several familiar merchants, even Lin Ziqing was among them.

"Why are you here too? Do you have enough money to buy land now?" Jiang Mushi looked at Lin Ziqing in surprise as he walked over.

Is selling information so profitable?

"I'm not here to bid. This is the first time in the imperial city. With so many people gathered in one place, there must be a lot of information. How can I miss it?" Lin Ziqing said with a smile, holding a folding fan in his hand. He waved the fan while talking, looking like a dashing and elegant gentleman.

But now that the Double Ninth Festival has passed and the weather is cool, there is really no need for a fan.

Jiang Mushi felt the cold wind blowing towards him and silently resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "Feng, don't forget our fan. If you fan your sister and she catches a cold, I won't forgive you."

Lin Ziqing froze as he held the fan. He coughed lightly and closed it silently, but he still held the fan in his hand and played with it.

Soon, several people sat down.

Lin Ziqing sat together with Jiang Suining and others.

There was an empty seat next to Jiang Suining, which was given to Mei Qinniang.

Not long after, Mei Qinnan came, looked around, and then sat down next to Jiang Suining.

Many merchants present did not know Mei Qinnan, but when they saw her charming appearance and sitting with Jiang Suining, they all became curious.

Among the people who were nearby, someone asked about the other person's identity. When they learned that the other person was the owner of Guangyun Tower, everyone present couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

The identity of the owner of Guangyun Tower has always been a mystery, and no one expected that it would be a woman.

Moreover, it seems that he is quite familiar with Miss Jiang. Could it be that the two of them have already agreed to jointly acquire the land in the west of the city?

For a moment, many people began to discuss in whispers.

This discussion continued until the bidding officially began.

Following a drumbeat, the official from the Ministry of Revenue in charge of the bidding walked onto the stage in front of everyone.

"Everyone, I am Ren Jian, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and I am mainly responsible for this bidding."

"Greetings, Master Ren!"

"Greetings, Master Ren!"

The vast majority of people present were merchants, and they all stood up and saluted.

Jiang Suining also stood up with everyone else. She actually knew something about this Lord Ren.

After the original Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Zhang Wangcheng was ousted by her, his successor was Ren Jian. He has had a good reputation since taking office, and has had some contact with the Jiang family because of the imperial merchants.

However, they were just contacts, not even close friends. In addition, the other party had a reputation for being fair and impartial, so it was impossible to expect Ren Jian to give Jiang Suining any extra help in this bidding.

"You don't have to be polite."

After Ren Jian signaled the middleman to take a seat, the bidding officially began without any further ado.

Ren Jian first stated that the sale of the land in the west of the city was in compliance with the emperor's order, and then gave a general introduction to the situation of the land.

Regarding these, everyone who is interested in buying the land today has already known them clearly before coming.

"Master Ren, I only have one question. After we buy the land, can we decide how to renovate it and what kind of business to do? "

"Yes." Ren Jian nodded.

After receiving a positive answer, many people seemed to be happier and more determined to get the land.

However, when Ren Jian announced the initial price, many people were immediately dumbfounded...
