Chapter 630: Untitled
After Yichai Lingwu left, Jiang Chengzi raised his eyes to look at the Linshui Pavilion opposite. In May, the lotus flowers are already in full bloom, pink, white, pink, and all kinds of lotus flowers reflect the jade green leaves swaying in the sun, and the pond is full of brilliance.
On the side of the platform on the second floor of the waterfront pavilion, the curtains rose and fell, and there were faint people leaning against the platform. Jiang Chengzi's eyesight was excellent, and she could see at a glance that it was Wang Xie, and she waved her hand to him happily.
Wang Xie saw her early, and his heart was also moved, and then he turned into the room, bowed to Dugu Sinan who was playing "Xia Cicada", and said, "Sir, Ah Zi is back." ”
Dugu Sinan dropped the piano, walked out of the door at once, stood on the platform, and saw his daughter coming quickly on the lotus leaf.
"Quick, go open the door. He shouted.
Wang Xie had already gone downstairs and opened the door, letting Jiang Chengzi in.
On the second floor of the Linshui Pavilion, there were only Wang Xie and Dugu Sinan, and as soon as Jiang Chengzi entered, he sat down on the rattan chair very upside down, and shouted crisply: "Dad." ”
The corners of Wang Xie's mouth twitched, Jiang Chengzi saw his appearance, and shouted crisply: "Wang Heping." ”
Her voice was crisp and sweet, and when she called him, it was always as if her superiors wanted to give orders, and many times she shouted code names.
He had thought about how beautiful it would be for her youngest daughter to call him by his name. When he heard it at this moment, he only felt his blood boiling, and he wanted to say something to deal with it, but he didn't know what to say. I want to squeeze out a smile, but I don't know what to do. Therefore, the expression on his face is more broken and how broken.
Jiang Chengzi looked at him like this, pursed his lips, and said, "What kind of expression do you have, it's ugly." ”
"You, in the future, still call me Wang Xie. Wang Xie lowered his eyes and said very seriously.
"Can't you call Wang Heping in private?" Jiang Chengzi is like a curious little girl, in front of her father and old brothers, she has no strategy and determination at all, only coquettishness.
Wang Xie shook his head resolutely and said, "Here, I am Wang Xie, not Wang Heping. ”
"Well, you're boring. Jiang Chengzi stuck out his tongue at him.
Wang Xie pretended not to see it, and still looked at the scenery outside the window expressionlessly, but he was bitter in his heart: Your name is "Wang Xie", I only think you are calling someone else, as soon as you call "Wang Heping", I feel that you are calling me, every bit of my previous life has come out, how can people be calm?
"Dad, I heard that you found Dugu Xin's seal letter, and helped them find the treasure, and you also got a reward. The imperial court wants to build a mansion and a temple for the Dugu family, and also give land property?" Jiang Chengzi asked with Dugu Sinan, who was dressed in white.
Dugu Sinan looked at her daughter lovingly, nodded lightly, and said, "Yes." ”
"But why don't you just choose a Hanlin cultivator? I think you can enter the East Palace to assist the crown prince. The prince had already planned this. Jiang Chengzi leaned on his father's arm and asked coquettishly.
Dugu Sinan chuckled, nodded her nose, and said dotingly: "Can you not know why? I have only entered the imperial court now, and there is no power behind me." In addition, the prince also needs to know that if you want to hurry, you can't reach it. It's not a good thing that he's snare too many people in a short period of time. ”
"Well, that's true. Jiang Chengzi nodded, and his impression of his father's old pedant had changed a little.
"I also told the prince directly. I can help him, but in the shadows. Now, I am a little Hanlin cultivator, a nobody, unable to block the way of others, so that I can leap into the sea. Of course, he chose such an official position because he could stay in Chang'an. He nodded Jiang Chengzi's nose as he spoke, and said, "I finally found you, and I don't want to be separated from you." ”
"I don't want to. Jiang Chengzi said with a smile.
Dugu Sinan looked at her eccentric daughter more and more like her previous life, and in her previous life, her daughter's appearance was very similar to her mother. In an instant, when he thought of his wife, his heart sank, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Chengzi asked.
Dugu Sinan shook his head and said, "Seeing you, I miss your mother." ”
Jiang Chengzi was also silent, although Wang Xie was watching the scenery on the side, but he was just looking outside the building, but his heart was listening to the conversation between the father and daughter. At this moment, he heard that the father and daughter were not in a high mood, so he turned around and said, "We can all have this adventure, and Auntie must have her own adventure." You really shouldn't be like that. Maybe one day, we can meet again. ”
Jiang Chengzi raised his eyes to look at Wang Xie's serious appearance, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Wang Heping, I think you are quite Zen." ”
Wang Xie waved his hand in disgust and said, "Don't call me Wang Heping." ”
"Alright, alright, Wang Xie, Wang Xie, Wang Xie. Jiang Chengzi stood up, ran to the edge of the building and sat down, looking at him and shouting.
"Hmph. Wang Xie raised his head and looked at him with a proud face.
Jiang Chengzi hid his face and smiled, Wang Xie heard her laugh, so he glanced at her with a straight face, and said, "Be serious, Chai Lingwu is here." ”
Sure enough, Chai Lingwu had replaced his short fight and was coming this way.
Jiang Chengzi pretended to be pretending, sat upright, and asked Dugu Sinan to play the piano together.
"Listen to what?" Dugu Sinan played the piano for his daughter, and was very happy in his heart.
"Lotus song. This pond full of lotus flowers is just right for this one. Jiang Chengzi said.
"Good. Dugu Sinan sat down and stroked the qin.
The sound of the piano is long, like a gentle breeze, full of lotus flowers swaying, and with clear ripples but not bewitching nobility. Jiang Chengzi's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this, and she remembered that her mother's favorite was this "Lotus Song". However, my mother said, "I won't let your father's negative person know, hmph, let him think I like "Listen to Songtao" for the rest of his life." ”
At the end of the song, Jiang Chengzi whispered: "Dad, Mom's favorite is actually this one." ”
Dugu Sinan was stunned, and before he could ask in detail, he heard Chai Lingwu's applause. Chai Lingwu praised: "I have heard so many pianos, only Mr.'s piano sound can bring me into that artistic conception." Fang only felt that the sun was warm, the breeze was breezy, and the lotus flowers in the pond were shining. After that, I felt that it was a clear water lotus, and it was noble and fragrant on a moonlit night. It's an amazing feeling. ”
"Brother Yi, this song happens to be called "Lotus Song". Jiang Chengzi said with a smile.
Chai Lingwu said another word of admiration, and then changed the topic, talked about the dishes for today's lunch, and asked Jiang Chengzi and Dugu Sinan if they wanted to change it.
"The guest is as he pleases. Where else can it be changed?" Jiang Chengzi said with a grin.
"You're not a guest. You are a person who has a Chai Fu token, a Chai family surname, and a member of the Chai family tree. Chai Lingwu said solemnly.
"That's still the righteous brother in charge, the righteous brother is a particular person, and the meals arranged must not be bad. Jiang Chengzi said with a smile.
"Haha, I also arranged for the King of Shu. Chai Lingwu quipped.
"He's coming?" Jiang Chengzi wondered.
"You're here, can he come down? Maybe he's on his way now. Chai Lingwu leaned on the cushion on the side.
Jiang Chengzi shook his head and said, "The King of Shu sent an envoy to the Turks, and Concubine Shu must be very worried. The king of Shu is filial, and he will definitely go to see Concubine Shu today. Besides, you just said that something big happened in the court, maybe he was also stumped. ”
"Makes sense. Chai Lingwu said.
"What happened to the imperial court?" Dugu Sinan was surprised. In his memory, in 628 AD, except for the defeat of the Liang division, there was nothing big about the imperial court.
"It is reported that Gao Shilian, a servant in Yizhou, asked Wei Zheng to hand over the excerpt and participate in a copy of the officials in the Jiannan Provincial Army. Chai Lingwu said.
"It's not a big deal to join the Jiannan Provincial Army. Wang Xie analyzed. In his cognition, even if it is a general's transfer, it is just a small matter of the military department, how can it be said to be a big thing.
"If it's a general, it's not a big deal. I estimate that Your Majesty is making such a big move, and this Gao Shilian Shen is quite delicate, and it may be that the military officials of all sizes in Jiannan Province are involved. Dugu Sinan analyzed.
"I also agree with what Mr. said. Look at this court, this Chang'an is about to rise again. Chai Lingwu nodded solemnly.
Jiang Chengzi already has a spectrum in his heart. Before, at the Shuofang border, Li Ke ordered someone to give Gao Shilian a big gift. Maybe the evidence controlled by Gao Shilian is Li Ke's doing. If all the military circles of Jiannan Dao are investigated and replaced, the imperial court will successfully control Jiannan Dao, Shannan Dao, and even Jiangnan Dao, which have always been controlled by the Xiao clan. The vitality of the Xiao family was greatly damaged, and at the same time, Gao Shilian, who was not dealing with the eldest grandson Wuji, would also be promoted, adding to the blockage of the eldest grandson Wuji.
Li Ke's strategy is very good. Jiang Chengzi was only worried about whether he did it neatly or not, afraid that if it was not neat and tidy, if he left evidence, Gao Shilian would bite back, and it would be bad.
Jiang Chengziwu thought to himself, but he heard Chai Lingwu smile and said: "Regardless of his Xiao Clan, he is still the Changsun Clan, and he is still the South Dao of Jiannan, or of Shannan Dao." It has nothing to do with us, we just live our lives and make our money. ”
"I love to hear what Ah Wu said. Dugu Sinan said with a smile.
Chai Lingwu laughed, and then directly changed the topic, and told Jiang Chengzi that the decoration of his restaurant had been completed, and at the suggestion of Mr. Dugu, another teahouse was opened near the restaurant.
"Ah Zhi, Mr. Dugu has studied the technique of winemaking, and I have ordered someone to build a wine cellar on the outskirts of the city. What about the problem of tea?" Chai Lingwu looked at Jiang Chengzi with a smile, clearly asking for her tea-making skills.
Jiang Chengzi shook his head and said, "It's not that I don't give you tea-making skills, but the taste of tea has a great influence on the environment." This Chang'an can also grow tea trees, but even if it is the same craft, it is not as good as the taste of tea in Shu. ”
"I know that. I'm just saying, you give me an exclusive. Chai Lingwu looked like a profiteer.
"Okay, I'll send a letter to Yunzhu. Now the tea leaves in Shuzhong are all taken care of by Yunzhu. What kind of tea do you want, write them down one by one, and give priority to supplying them to you. As for the payment of taxes, you can report it to the court yourself. After all, this tea is now an official acquisition and operation. Those teas of excellent quality are all paid directly as tribute. Jiang Chengzi said.
After a series of blood-stained things, she still believes that it is necessary to grasp both economics and politics, and both hands must be firm. Moreover, you must have your own industry and economic resources. Although this tea is now officially operated, it is only a tea that is sold to ethnic minorities on a large scale. And some high-quality tea with high quality and complicated workmanship is directly tributed, or only traded here by a few wealthy families.
"If you agree, I'll go and ask for an exclusive sale. That's a lot of money. Chai Lingwu was very happy. In this way, his teahouse only received dignitaries, and tea was only sold to people of status. Moreover, there is only this one, and there is no semicolon. A lot of money, he was excited when he thought about it.
"Just get your license. I'm okay with everything here. Jiang Chengzi gave Chai Lingwu a promise.
Chai Lingwu smiled, and said that he had opened a ready-to-wear shop, so that Jiang Chengzi would have nothing to do and draw some drawings of clothes and pants.
"Yes. Jiang Chengzi agreed.
The clothes of the Tang Dynasty are gorgeous, but it is really inconvenient to drag mud and water, and she is not good at wearing strange clothes by herself. If you don't think it's weird, drain the trend. This ready-to-wear shop of the Chai clan was very famous during the Sui Dynasty. After passing through the Chai family's ready-to-wear shop, it was different. Everyone is flocking to it, and if you wear it yourself, there will be no problem.
"Then can you let your mother and Aunt Xiu design some emerald jewelry. Chai Lingwu said with a grin.
"It's going to take an inch. Besides, your family doesn't run any emerald shops, and you don't want to eat a big fat man who can't work. Jiang Chengzi pouted and said.
"Yes. Chai Lingwu nodded, and then asked, "Your family's Diancui design is very famous in Shuzhong." There are also people in this compartment who cooperate with you, right? How about the commission? The price is reasonable? If not, I will recommend one for you. ”
"Let's be so-so. It was made in Shuzhong before, and the contract has not yet expired. Wait until the year is over. Jiang Chengzi replied. She is not particularly satisfied with the few dots of Cui Shop that she has cooperated with Liufang before.
"Then wait for this year to pass, and look for you for my brother. Chai Lingwu patted his chest and packed the ticket, "I will definitely find a satisfactory partner for you." ”
"Didn't you just say that you wanted to recommend someone for me?" Jiang Chengzi became interested. Although she is not good at designing, his mother is a well-known jewelry designer, and she is still very knowledgeable and interested in jewelry appreciation.
"Oh, I'm talking about Chang'an Ruyi Fang. The jewelry of this Ruyi Fang, with its unique and novel style, is frequented by the craftsmen of the palace and the treasures of the palace bureau. Last time, I planned to open some emerald shops, and when I went to take a look, I only thought that those jewelry were very extraordinary, and the idea of opening some emerald shops was immediately dispelled. Chai Lingwu said.
"Who owns this Ruyi Fang?" Wang Xie interjected and asked. Even if this Chang'an is a small trader, there must be some power behind it.
"This Ruyi Fang, this is a branch. It is said that the first store is in Luoyang. Operating in Chang'an has only started in the past two years, but in other places, it is said that it is already famous all over the world. I asked people to secretly investigate and know that this shop belongs to the Luoyang Wang family. Wang Ying, the eldest girl who is both in operation and design, is said to be a talented and good-looking woman who controls the entire Wang family's long house. The other room bullied the long house, and the people were thin, and now they don't dare to act rashly, they are a wonderful person. Chai Lingwu talked about this story, and ordered someone to take out a few pieces of jewelry that he bought in Ruyifang a few days ago.
"Sister, I'll give it to you. Chai Lingwu said and took out a gold necklace, "This is their limited edition of ten, and there is only one in Chang'an." I thought it looked good, and I thought I would buy it for my sister's dowry in the future. ”
"Then you will take it out today?" Wang Xie interjected.
Jiang Chengzi looked at the necklace and was a little stunned. Dugu Sinan also came over all of a sudden, put the necklace in his hand and took a closer look.
