Chapter 27
What kind of fate is this??The corners of Nangong Rongjin's lips curled up unconsciously, and he ate the cold cake in one mouthful. His slender fingers tapped on the table, seemingly carelessly waiting for something.
After a while, a white-faced scholar in Tsing Yi stepped into the elegant room with a smile on his face.
"That young master Huaxi is really a wonderful person." The white-faced scholar sat across from Nangong Rongjin, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all with a raised neck.
"Who is making trouble for him?" Nangong Rongjin suddenly stopped tapping his fingers on the table.
The white-faced scholar recalled what he saw and heard just now, and couldn't help laughing out loud. He told the whole story one by one, five one, ten ten, and added some thoughts of his own at the end, "I don't think anyone can let He will suffer. Whether I go or not, the result will be the same. My lord, I was too worried this time."
Nangong Rongjin hummed, and the topic changed suddenly, "How long has Zhou Fu been gone?"
The white-faced scholar put away the smile on his face, "It's been more than half a year. I think he's coming back with a lot of joy and reluctance to leave."
"Spent this king's money recklessly. If he fails to learn something when he comes back, this king will copy his old background."
"I know the prince's way of doing things well, but I don't think he has the guts. Although the greenhouses are effective now, compared with the output of Daqing, it seems to be a level behind. Fortunately, the grain reserves in various places are enough to cope with this. The second drought. So far no casualties have been reported. It is Xiaosheng who has an unknown incident. Could Anzhen be so close at that time? It is said that General Sheng protected him like a pearl, and even the emperor had to stand up to him when he met him. Agree." It was unheard of for him to spoil a brother like this.
"Since you are a businessman, you must be mercenary. Otherwise, if you are my king, can't you hear a little bit of sound when the money is dropped?" After speaking, Nangong Rongjin stood up.
"What the prince said? It's very true, Xiaosheng is stupid." The white-faced scholar also stood up and hurriedly followed.
"It's not rude to come and go. When the merchant ships from Daqing arrive, treat them with stinky tofu."
The white-faced scholar paused, and responded with a casual smile of "Yes"
To buy a large shed in Daqing, the prince spent tens of thousands of taels of silver out of his own pocket.He had to think about how much the prince could recover with that stinky tofu.
*****************
In the bumpy carriage, Huaxi sat comfortably, calmly letting He Yunmu's probing eyes scan him.
"Now that Young Master Mu and I are friends, will there be a discount if we sell a lot of salt?" Huaxi didn't feel embarrassed at all, and the export was even more natural.
"Lean on my carriage, just to tell me? This?" He Yunmu almost didn't jump up, looking at Huaxi like he was looking at a monster.
"Rely on your parents at home, and friends when you go out. Although my family has never let me rely on it, I believe that you are a very reliable friend. How is it? Is there any?" In this era, the price of salt is The most expensive.If he wants to make salted duck eggs or salted egg yolks, he needs a lot of salt.
In terms of purchasing, he likes to buy the best ingredients at the lowest price, salt, and of course there is no exception.
"That will disappoint you. My name is not as useful as you imagined." He Yunmu gave him a hard look. A brother who is favored at home can only be a brother.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have already paid you as a friend. Is there enough private money? Have you considered investing in something to expand your own small coffers?" Huaxi looked indifferent, as if casually I am just joking.
He Yunmu raised his eyes disapprovingly, "Why? You want to borrow money from me? Let me charge you interest?" That's it?
Huaxi shook his head bluntly, "Short-sighted, how much can you earn by putting interest money?"
He Yunmu looked at the disappointment in Huaxi's eyes, and suddenly realized what he meant by investment.
"Invest in you, so that you can open a restaurant? With your little food and street stalls, it's barely enough. How can you get on the table?" It's not that he looks down on it, but that he doesn't like what Huaxi made. thing.Although he has never eaten it, he never buys food from the stalls. It is very cheap, okay?
"Then I'll take it as your rejection, don't worry, I won't ask you again in the future. But, who did you meet when you wore this red body?" Hua Xi shrugged indifferently, as if just It's just sitting together and gossiping about family affairs, and I haven't been affected by being rejected at all.
"You take care of yourself." He Yunmu Lima raised his face, shook Huaxi's eyes and closed his mouth, deciding not to speak to him again.
He didn't mention it at first, he almost forgot.
The youngest son of the protector of the country, said? He climbed high and wanted to enter the door? He could only be a servant. If he hadn't been dragged by the servants, he would have passed by earlier. Even if he married a lame and blind man, he would never give it to anyone else. Even if he is small, what's more, he is backed by the He family, the largest salt merchant in the Dachang Dynasty.Why does he look down on him.
As soon as he thought of this, He Yunmu felt angry. He also wore red clothes for the other party's hobby. Now, it seems that he is a joke.
Seeing the instant anger on He Yunmu's face, Hua Xi probably also guessed that the result might be very unsatisfactory, so he closed his mouth wisely, and simply closed his eyes to rest his mind, as for the carriage, it is not always possible to sit in it.
He Yunmu peeked at Huaxi who had lost his voice, and he was inexplicably relieved. If Huaxi insisted on asking the bottom line, he might become angry on the spot and beat him up.
The carriage suddenly became quiet, and He Yunmu couldn't help but take a peek at the Huaxi, which seemed harmless to livestock. It was not as quiet as before.
So, leaving the protection of the family, can a person really change so much?
He Yunmu couldn't help thinking deeply.
The speed of the horse-drawn carriage is not comparable to that of an ox-drawn carriage. In Huaxi, it felt like I just took a nap and arrived at the destination as soon as I opened my eyes. It was not a little bit faster.
So in order to save time, it has to be a horse.
Huaxi jumped out of the carriage lightly, and waved at He Yunmu casually, "Thank you, now you know where I live, you can come and play with me when you are free."
He Yunmu glanced at him, without leaving a word, put down the curtain of the carriage, ordered the groom to return, and the carriage left.
Huaxi laughed, he was still a child at heart.
The villagers saw the horse-drawn carriage entering the village from a distance, and now that they had left, they dared to lean over and looked at Huaxi with different expressions, but there was a kind of "remarkable" in their eyes. The message is coming.
Always attracting attention, such days are also very distressing.Hua Xi insisted on responding to the kind and rough people who greeted him, claiming that he was tired, so he was able to leave the enthusiastic crowd and return to the house.
Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth just to complain, but she still poured a bowl of cold boiled water for Huaxi in distress, "Where are Brother Qing and the others?"
"They came back after shopping in the city. I took a special car and came back earlier. Goddamn, is there not enough people in the family? Mrs. Liu and the others have to go out to set up a stall during the day and come back to help in the afternoon. Now at home Busy with the craftsmen's lunch, just you and Xiang'er, are you tired?" He was negligent, he should have hired two or three people to take care of him, instead of seeing Zhang's temples protruding It was only with white hair that I remembered my failure.
"Don't waste your money anymore, I won't be tired of this job, do you hear me?" Now what Huaxi said, Mrs. Zhang can understand right away. There is a deeper meaning in what he said .
Mrs. Zhang said? Mrs. Zhang, Huaxi also had her own ideas in mind, so she nodded casually.Then I asked about collecting eggs today.
As soon as Ma Qing'er announced that he wanted to buy eggs, Huaxi and the others had just left when someone from the village came to sell eggs.
There are not only eggs, but also goose eggs, duck eggs and quail eggs.
Didn’t I see those small animals in the village? I didn’t expect them? Everyone is a hidden master, and they are breeding at home.
I already marinated the duck eggs yesterday. When the weather temperature is still at its highest, it is just right to make preserved eggs. It may be the first batch before the hot weather, and it will also be the last batch.
Mrs. Zhang is still busy making lunch for the craftsmen, leaving Xiang'er to Huaxi as a helper.
There are hundreds of eggs of all kinds. Two people, one older and one younger, sat by the water tank in the yard and began to carefully clean all kinds of eggs.
Don't look at Xiang'er's small hands, she helped wash it once yesterday, and she is much more proficient in doing it today.
There was a hesitant figure lingering at the door, and it was still Xiang'er with sharp eyes who saw the shadow shaking in the crack of the door.
"Big brother, the door? There seems to be someone outside."
"I'll go and have a look." Huaxi looked up and happened to see a shadow passing through the gap in the door, then wiped his hands and went to open the door.
A clean-dressed little girl was suddenly startled by the sound of the door opening, she twitched her fingers awkwardly, and stammered, "I, I'm here to help." Said? After finishing, she immediately lowered her head.
"Whose family do you belong to?"
"Big Brother, it's Sister Meng'er, the daughter of my little uncle's family." Xiang'er poked her head out from behind Huaxi, saw who was coming, and immediately explained clearly and grinned.
Meng'er replied obediently, but she didn't dare to raise her head, she just stared at the tip of her shoe, "Grandma, let me come over."
"Come in, you go to the kitchen to help with something."
Meng'er let out a sigh, and when she passed Xiang'er, she lightly touched her on the head, and walked quickly into the yard.
Huaxi turned back and closed the door, and heard Xiang'er muttering to herself, "Sister Meng'er hasn't been here for a while."
This Meng'er should be Ma Laosan's eldest daughter? She looks relatively immature and should not be very old, but she looks about fifteen or sixteen.
But these are other people's chores, as long as you work honestly and do not play tricks, he will use them.
Now, there is a serious shortage of people!
"Well, let's continue to wash the eggs. After washing the eggs, you have to help me coat the eggs with mud, and I will count your wages for you after finishing the work, okay?"
Xiang'er didn't think as much as the adults thought. When she heard that she was paid, she quickly clapped her hands happily, "Okay, okay."
Huaxi wiped the bridge of Xiang'er's nose in a funny way, and before he could say anything, he heard a man's joking voice from outside the courtyard across a door, "You still get paid for playing in the mud? Can such a good thing be counted as my own?" ?indivual?"
The voice was not too familiar, Huaxi only felt a sudden pain in the head.
He wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but the other party didn't want to let him go, so he slammed the door loudly.
For the first time in his life, he felt an urge to beat someone up.
