Chapter 382 Qingxin Bank
After the rules and regulations of Qingxin Money House had taken shape, Xuanyuan Yan quickly called Shangguan Qingyue to his house to discuss the matter.
Shangguan Qingyue was a little surprised when she saw the table full of various kinds of food.
"Ayan, it's not even time for lunch yet, why are there so many dishes? If you can't finish them later, won't it be wasted?"
Shangguan Qingyue is now considered a wealthy woman. However, she has never lost herself in money and has always adhered to the principle of not spending what she should spend and not spending what she shouldn't spend.
Therefore, although she never treated herself badly, she was considered a very frugal person in the eyes of her servants. The food in front of her could not be wasted, but there was probably no need to prepare lunch.
Xuanyuan Yan naturally understood what she was thinking, so he said softly:
“These are all delicacies that Bai Er collected from all over the capital.
You have been busy and didn't have the chance to taste it, so luckily I asked him to buy some, so you can save lunch today."
The little girl's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. Isn't this the legendary snack feast? She can finally eat to her heart's content!
So she sat down happily, looking at the table full of delicious food, excited. There was almost no sweet food, all of them were salty, which she liked, and there was even spicy food!
Xuanyuan Yan also saw the plate of spicy dried tofu and explained:
“Ever since Qibaozhai launched spicy food and it was well received, many restaurants in Beijing have begun to follow suit.
This shop used to specialize in tofu, but now they have launched several new dishes that are very popular. Let’s try them and see how they taste.”
After hearing this, Shangguan Qingyue immediately picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it in her mouth to taste it carefully. The spicy, salty and fragrant taste immediately spread in her mouth.
Although the taste was very different from the dried tofu snacks she had eaten in her previous life, it was enough to satisfy her!
Then she tried some other snacks and praised each one.
Xuanyuan Yan held his chin with one hand, looking at the little girl sitting opposite him eating happily, his heart was full of satisfaction. He thought, this is the greatest happiness in his life!
No matter how thick-skinned you are, you will still feel uncomfortable if you are stared at for too long. Shangguan Qingyue put down the food in her hand, wiped her greasy hands with a wet towel, and then said:
"Ayan, why don't you eat? Is it because none of this suits your taste?"
She suddenly felt a little ashamed. Relationships are always a matter between two people, and she seemed to have always been the one being taken care of...
Seeing her like this, Xuanyuan Yan said with a smile:
"Why, you feel guilty for such a small meal? If that's the case, then make me some more ice cream. There are only a few left in the ice house."
"No, this is not negotiable."
The guilt that had just arisen immediately dissipated, and Shangguan Qingyue rarely turned cold and began to preach:
"Ayan, didn't we agree on this? This ice is not suitable for summer consumption. It is very harmful to the spleen and stomach. Why are you still addicted?"
She walked up to him, reached out her hand and gently patted his head, saying with a smile:
"Be good, don't worry about the ice cream. I'll make you something else delicious."
Before she finished her words, she was already ready to escape, but when she turned around to run, she suddenly felt a tightening around her waist, and her whole body was lifted into the air and fell into someone's warm arms.
Xuanyuan Yan smiled evilly, breathed hot air into the little girl's ear, and said in a hoarse voice:
"The little girl is getting bolder and bolder. She even dares to call herself sister."
As soon as he finished speaking, he bit the other person's small and delicate ear, nibbling it gently with a hint of punishment.
Shangguan Qingyue only felt an electric current passing from her ears to her whole body. She instantly lost all her strength and could only fall limply into someone's arms.
The sweet fragrance of the young girl filled the air at the tip of his nose, mixed with... the scent of the damn silver dan grass, causing the already somewhat addicted man to slowly regain some sanity.
Xuanyuan Yan tightened his arms and hugged the person in his arms tighter. He took several deep breaths before his rapidly beating heartbeat finally slowed down.
Although they are engaged, they have not yet gotten married. The difference of just one word between the two makes a world of difference.
There was a muffled sound coming from behind my neck.
"Qingqing, can we get married soon?"
At this moment, Shangguan Qingyue was like a cooked shrimp, and she even suspected that there was steam coming out of her head.
Especially the ear that was bitten, it was so hot that it was scary.
She was a virgin, and had been so aroused that she didn't know what day it was. When she heard the man's deep voice from behind her ears, she replied in a daze:
"What marriage?"
Thank God, she wasn't stupid enough to ask 'what is marriage', otherwise she would have been laughed at by someone for a whole year!
But she regretted it immediately after she said it. How could she be so confused as to ask such a stupid question?
So she simply became a coward and buried her head in the other person's broad arms, determined not to say a word no matter what the man said.
There was a continuous vibration in the chest, and the man seemed to let out a series of low laughs from the depths of his throat.
This laughter sounded like the fragrance of mellow aged wine. Even if you just listened to it for a while, you would feel intoxicated.
"You are quite courageous, why are you so cowardly now?
Tell me, what do you plan to eat instead of ice cream?
Shangguan Qingyue: I don’t want to listen, I can’t hear anything!
Seeing that the person in his arms was reluctant to speak, Xuanyuan Yan simply stood up, held the person tightly in his arms, and walked towards the table.
Shangguan Qingyue, who had never eaten pork but had seen pigs run in her previous life, immediately panicked. This person, this person wouldn't want...
She no longer dared to think about what she wanted. She wrapped her arms around the man's neck tightly, and said anxiously with a thin mist in her eyes:
"Ayan, what are you going to do?"
Xuanyuan Yan did not answer and just walked forward on his own. The person in his arms struggled at first, flapping his legs, but soon calmed down.
He looked down in confusion, and saw that the little girl had returned to her calm state.
"Why, are you so confident that I won't do anything to you? We're already engaged, aren't you afraid..."
"Don't be afraid, Ayan, you won't do anything to hurt me. I was just a little panicked just now, but I was never afraid from beginning to end."
Xuanyuan Yan couldn't describe his feelings at the moment. He just felt his heart being pulled and twitched, but it wasn't pain, but an indescribable feeling... joy or happiness.
My chest seems to be filled with something and I always want to vent it out, but I don’t know what to vent it with.
With all kinds of contradictory and complicated emotions, he gently kissed the little girl on the forehead as if she were a rare treasure.
Soon Shangguan Qingyue was placed on the beauty couch next to the desk. Before she could react, a booklet fell into her hands.
The cover of the booklet had four characters written in a flamboyant style: Qingxin Money House. She was very familiar with the handwriting, so she curiously opened it and read it.
About an incense stick later, she finally raised her head, her face full of excitement.
“If this Qingxin Bank can really be established, I don’t know how many poor families will benefit from it.
that is……"
She couldn't help but frowning and sighing.
"If we do this, we will offend a lot of people, right? This is tantamount to destroying the jobs of other banks."
Shuiyunjian's bookstore has already offended all the bookstores in the capital. Now, are they going to go against the law and offend all the money houses again?
Money is loaned to poor families without interest, and there is an opportunity every year. The repayment can be made in installments within one year or in one lump sum.
Even with such a big pie, she was worried that the people would not believe it.
Xuanyuan Yan nodded in agreement, showing a sly smile.
"So, we have to find a backer first, just like Qingxin Academy did. After you and I have discussed it, I will go to the palace to find my father. If he agrees, we will do it.
If you don't agree, forget it. You and I are not immortals, let alone living Bodhisattvas who can save people from suffering. Just do your best in everything."
With this reassurance, Shangguan Qingyue completely calmed down. Suddenly she thought of something and asked directly:
"What should we do if the loan is still unpaid when the deadline comes? They are all poor families, and I guess they don't have anything to pay off the debt."
Shangguan Qingyue also understood that the Qingxin Money House was equivalent to a charitable foundation.
The money came from donations from nobles and wealthy families. Part of it was used for the daily expenses of the academy, and the other part was used to help the people.
But she still understood the principle of 'a little help is a debt of gratitude, a big help is a debt of vengeance', not to mention that some people are not only poor but also short-sighted, so they have to be prepared for these in advance.
Otherwise, she might not accomplish anything good, and end up with a lot of complaints. Shangguan Qingyue would never do something that was thankless.
However, what seemed troublesome to her was a trivial matter to Xuanyuan Yan.
He reached out and smoothed the little girl's frown, and said nonchalantly:
"This kind of thing is the easiest to deal with. If you can't pay it back, then just sell yourself to a money house and work as a servant for a few years to pay off the debt.
I am responsible for everything. Don’t frown casually in the future. I will feel bad. "
Shangguan Qingyue was touched and nodded obediently.
Unconsciously, the sun began to set. Shangguan Qingyue and Xuanyuan Yan squeezed onto a beauty couch. She rested her head on his thick shoulders and squinted her eyes comfortably.
This moment is so beautiful that it is intoxicating...
