Han County and the provincial capital are as prosperous as ever, as if the drought had never affected this place, but it is also true that most of the residents in the provincial capital lived by buying food, and most of their homes had deep wells. At this point of the grain, coupled with the pressure of Tao Taishou, the merchants were prevented from raising the price of grain.

Now, after a heavy rain, people's hearts are stable, and they have regained their prosperity. Du Qingchen wanted to go home first, but was stopped by Tao Xiude, "Your family is in my house, aren't you with me? "

They knew that I was coming back, so they should have gone home already?" Du Qingchen said.

"How come, even if they want to leave, my family must keep the distinguished guests! They can't leave." Tao Xiude laughed.

Du Qingchen had to follow Tao Xiude to Tao Mansion first. Speaking of which, this was the first time he went to Tao Mansion.

"What do you want, you have to think about it now, my father will definitely ask you, don't say that I have nothing else to ask for! Otherwise, maybe my father is like Shao Qing. Your disposition is unruly and untamed, and you are dissatisfied."

"That's fine, then I want the exclusive management right." Du Qingchen had already prepared, even if Tao Xiude didn't ask, he would also talk about this matter.

"What exclusivity?" Tao Xiude had never heard such a statement.

"It's white sugar and vermicelli. I want to do this business in Han County. I am the only one who can do this business, and others can only do this business with me. If someone steals my recipe and runs it in Han County, Tao Taishou will do it. Call the shots for me." Du Qingchen said.

Tao Xiude thought for a while and then understood, "You have a good idea! But can this order be given? Besides, even if it is given, the other provinces will still be unable to control it!"

Du Qingchen pouted, "Then I won't mention it, you say I'm arrogant, Master Shao is still targeting me because of this, and now I mention it, and you say you can't do it, then you just say what you want to give me, don't let me I mentioned it. As for other provinces, I really can't control them. I only say that they are in Han County! For business, they only occupy one province. If I sell it outside, I can still do it, and besides, is my recipe so easy to steal?"

Tao Xiude hesitated, Du Qingchen had promised Su Junxia that this business would be done with Su Junxia, ​​if they agreed to this request, They also benefited from themselves. Now the Tao family is extremely short of money, and it is just when they are desperately trying to get money. It is too dangerous to scrape the people's fat and people's cream. The real big families rely on gathering affiliated families and relying on others to collect dividends. Or if you have an industrial field or something like this, thinking about it like this is a bit embarrassing, and you shouldn't refuse.

No wonder Du Qingchen didn't make this request to Shao Qing, but instead looked for him! This is a dilemma even if they know it, and the Tao family will not refuse it!

Tao Xiude said with emotion: "Okay! Then I'll go back and talk to my father. As for whether it can be done or not, I can't help it. After all, officials cannot take the interests of the people, and there has never been an official order to allow only certain It's really unreasonable that the business makes someone do it." This order will definitely be questioned, but whether he can resist this questioning, and whether he wants to resist it, that is his father's business.

Du Qingchen smiled, "I think it's quite reasonable, I am in Han County, and I have merit!" Du Qingchen said seriously to Tao Xiude: "As long as my reputation spreads, my actions will be known to the world, and I will receive this award, and then Who would be embarrassed by Prefect Tao?"

"What does this mean..."

"How did Young Master Tao support Boss Su in the first place? Forgot?" Du Qingchen chuckled.

Back then, in order to be able to take advantage of Su Junxia, ​​Tao Xiude deliberately spread the news to let the people know that it was Su Junxia, ​​who was chivalrous and fearless, who went down the secret way to save those children, and obscured him, causing all the glory to be gathered in Su Junxia, ​​and it was also accomplished. His fame paved the way for him to take over the Chen family industry.

Now he can do the same. Although he doesn't dare to brazenly say that he saved Han Jun, the second batch of relief food is indeed saved by him, right? Otherwise, it would have turned over early on the mountain road. It was also he who found out the spies in Han County, eliminated possible hidden dangers in the future, and even helped a lot when he distributed food for disaster relief. After all, Tao Xiude did not trust others and could only calculate it himself, but he In terms of arithmetic, it is indeed weaker, and Du Qingchen is responsible for almost all the work.

After such a credit, isn't it worthy of an exclusive reward after it spreads? Not to mention, the recipes for white sugar and vermicelli are his own, and they are reasonable. If anyone else does this business, they must have stolen the recipes from his family. This request he made is only to protect his own rights and interests. That's it, not too much! After all, it is an ordinary family, if there is any unique recipe, even if it is to be passed on to men and not women, just for fear of being known by outsiders, his request, which is reasonable and reasonable, will also be recognized by the world.

Tao Xiude also understood, "I always feel that your words seem to be very resentful for what I did at the beginning."

"Why? I put it down."

"You really didn't spread the news to me at the beginning. At that time, all the credit is attributed to Su Junxia, ​​and you are ignored, and you feel dissatisfied?"

"I really don't! You believe me." Du Qingchen said seriously: "How about I raise your hand and swear to you."

"Come on." Tao Xiude smiled and pressed Du Qingchen's wrist, "I understand what you mean, I will tell my father when I go back, and I will also say good things for you. We, our own people, can speak openly. The Tao family is also profitable, although it is a bit embarrassing, but as you said, you have done meritorious service, but you can't give official rewards, and an exclusive management right is not out of the ordinary. I will persuade my father."

"Thank you so much." Du Qingchen cupped his hands.

"Let's make a fortune together! Boss Du!" Tao Xiude patted Du Qingchen on the shoulder.

"This is not like the son of an official, a scholar, Mr. Tao, you have got the stench of copper." Du Qingchen teased, in exchange for Tao Xiude's roll of eyes.

Tao Mansion, Tao Taishou met Du Qingchen in the living room. Du Qingchen was polite, neither humble nor arrogant. He didn't look like a farmer from a village at all, which made Tao Taishou smile and nod. many things.

Tao Taishou sat in the upper seat and said with a chuckle: "You have made a contribution, but what do you want?"

Du Qingchen glanced at Tao Xiude, Tao Xiude immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "On the way back, my son is still with him. Brother Du mentioned this matter, saying that his father is clear about rewards and punishments, but he is lenient, and he will definitely ask you what reward you want, so Brother Du thought about it all the way, and finally came up with what he wanted the most, but the matter is complicated. Rong son will talk to his father in detail later."

"Oh, that's fine." Tao Taishou nodded, but didn't go into details. Anyway, since Tao Xiude thought it was okay, it was a little more complicated, and it shouldn't be a big deal, so he didn't. questioned.

"Brother Du has worked hard all the way. I haven't seen my family for a long time, and I miss him very much. Father, since I have seen it, why don't you let Brother Du go to see the family first!" Tao Xiude said.

"Well, let's go!" Tao Taishou smiled and nodded.

Du Qingchen saluted and backed out, and then went to the small courtyard where his family lived under the diligent command of the housekeeper. The family knew that Du Qingchen was coming back, and even Su Dong was waiting at the door. As soon as he saw Du Qingchen, he wanted to come over. After running two steps, he walked over to support him, "Be careful, don't run around."

"I didn't run, I just wanted to walk over." Su Dong blushed.

Du Qingchen saw that Su Dong's lower abdomen had already swelled. In a few months, his child would be born. It was amazing! Du Qingchen sighed.

"Is it okay these days?"

"It's okay, the Tao Mansion also invited a doctor to check my pulse from time to time, saying that I am in good health."

Du Qingchen nodded, "That's fine."

"Cough cough..." Du Qingchen The father coughed, and in a large audience, how long would it take to hold hands and complain to each other! Seeing this scene reminded him of that embarrassing family letter again, it's time for his son to educate him.

Only then did Du Qingchen turn to the others and called Father Du, but he put down Su Dong's hand, but he naturally embraced Su Dong's waist, supported him, and smiled at him innocently. The usual behavior is not pleasing to the eye at this moment, Du's father coughed again, this time even Su's mother came over and pulled Su Dong away, and supported herself.

Du Qingchen looked puzzled, what happened?

"Brother." Du Rulin saw that the atmosphere was weird, and the mental preparation he had made was about to collapse. He had thought about it, so he acted as if nothing happened, and still treated his brother the same as before, but the atmosphere made him unconscious. He also blushes, he is still a young man who just fell in love! His face is not as thick as those adults.

Seeing that Du Rulin's face was flushed, Du Qingchen poked his hand and said with a smile, "What's wrong? It's still hot today! Isn't it cool after it rained!" The rain last time continued for a day, and the land was thoroughly drenched. It's clear, and now the air is moist and moist, and it doesn't feel hot at all.

Du Rulin shook his head and said nothing.

Du Qingchen greeted Su's father and Su's mother again. Su's mother looked quite normal, still smiling and grinning, but Su's father didn't dare to meet his eyes. He was usually an honest and honest steel and strong man. At this moment There was some redness on the dark skin.

Eh ...

I always felt that something wasn't quite right. Du Qingchen would say something outside if he didn't want to, and greeted everyone to enter the yard, and the housekeeper naturally left.

Su Dong didn't let Su's mother pull him, so he approached Du Qingchen and pulled his clothes. Du Qingchen immediately turned around and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

Su Dong shook his head, bit his lip, and lowered his head. Said: "Everyone has read the letter you wrote." So you understand!

Du Qingchen's face changed slightly, "But I wrote a letter to you!"

"But everyone thought it was a letter from home, so they let Ru Lin read it in public." Su Dong was wronged, and he was very embarrassed, okay?

Is it possible to have a little privacy these days? Du Qingchen raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, causing a headache. Is that what he wrote called a letter from home? Is it good to call a love letter, and read it in public... No wonder Du Rulin blushed like that, and Father Su didn't dare to look at him. The two were young and tender and the other was old and simple. How could they have seen such a thing before.

fine! You have a thick face and a black heart! Du Qingchen entered the room as if nothing had happened. It was time to drink tea, drink tea, chat and chat. With the cooperation of everyone, the atmosphere gradually returned to normal.

On the other hand, Tao Taishou listened to Tao Xiude's description of Du Qingchen's request, and pondered for a while, "What do you think?"

"My son thinks it's okay, this matter is good for my Tao family, my son knows this business, and even tasted him using vermicelli. What you do, this business can make a lot of money, and my son is sure." Tao Xiude replied in the study.

"So, you should agree to him?" Tao Taishou asked, the Tao family is very short of money now, and it is indeed what they should do to help such a business that is beneficial to their own.

"Yes, also, what Du Qingchen said is also reasonable. As long as the things he has done these days and the credit he has made are spread and known to the world, even such an order is a little unreasonable, and others will not say anything. After all, this is a reward for merit, which is reasonable."

Tao Taishou nodded.

"And." Tao Xiude continued: "After the previous traitor incident, we dug out a lot of nails from Han County. Now we are doing both kindly and powerfully, regaining people's hearts and laying out Han County. This order can be tested a little bit. , to see who will object and will not obey his father's orders."

Tao Taishou said: "It seems that this reward must be given, but he will pick the time."

"Yes, my son also thinks that Du Qingchen is doing it on purpose. After all, before Shao Qing also asked him what reward he wanted, but he didn't want anything, but he made such a request to us."

"Shao Qing? He can't help Du Qingchen. Although Shao Qing has a high official position, he doesn't have his own. There are only one verbal order, who will listen to him? There are many people in the capital who are more senior and more important than him."

"Exactly, this is also Du Qingchen's careful thought."

"If that is the case, then promise him!" Tao Taishou said.

"Yes."
