The ancient city of Xiushan is adjacent to Anyang County, surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing water on one side. Anyang County is rich in brocade www.biquge.info Xiushan develops fisheries and also produces minerals. The fame is not inferior to Anyang.

There are iron ore and salt mines in Xiushan, and it is even rumored that there are people who have found the gold ore here, and people from all over the world have gathered here, and they want to dig out the gold ore here based on the appearance of the gold stone. Therefore, the small Xiushan Ancient City also has a bit of prosperity in the eyes of Jiang Li and his party.

Since leaving Fenshui and going south, he has only seen poor mountains and bad rivers all the way, and finally saw a prosperous ancient city, how could Jiang Li obediently stay in the inn and not come out to walk. As for the Seven Poisons Sect and the Great Yan people who appeared out of nowhere, they all threw her out of the clouds.

In the afternoon, the sun was shining, and the scorching sun baked the moisture on the bluestone pavement, and the slate dried quickly. Outside the stone slabs, a row of weeping willows grew weakly on the riverbank, and a row of weeping willows outside the grass drooped with long branches.

Jiang Li looked at the river through the weeping willows. The lotus leaves on the river are defeated, and there are many large and small riverboats. On the big riverboat, the wind music song was scattered behind, and the warbler Yanyan, who was dressed in red and green, completely ignored the various eyes of the people on the shore, giggled and laughed, and made a thousand delicate gestures, relying on the railing of the riverboat to be looked at.

Jiang Li stood on the shore, wearing a moon-white cotton brocade robe, the hem of the robe was painted with plum blossoms, the cuffs and neckline were hooked with gold threads, and the white hosta on the head. Dressed luxuriously, handsome, and clearly the image of a beautiful son.

The riverboat is not far from the shore, everyone looks at the little guy behind him, Xiao Xiang, who has long feet and long hands, is only taller than Sixi, and the two of them are dressed in gray clothes and black pants. She followed her master closely, never leaving.

Sixi Sabre, who has an honest and honest face, has few words all the way, and at this time he is even more shy. Only Zhao San, who was thin and thin, turned a blind eye to these, and followed Jiang Li and his master and servant like a shadow.

A group of warblers and warblers whispered on the riverboat: At first glance, he is a rich master, and even the little guys are so handsome. A group of women, you push me, and a few bold ones are even more coquettish and soft, accompanied by flattering eyes.

Jiang Li shook off the goosebumps, looked elsewhere, a few small leaves by the river Cailing flat boat leisurely shuttled on the river, a string of crisp and pleasant songs with laughter, singing far and near. The lyrics are indistinct, but they are refreshing all at once.

Although Xiaoxiang is wearing a small dress, her daughter's nature is difficult to change, when Jiang Li listens to the song, she taps her toes on the lotus leaves, and picks up a few fresh lotus pods in her hands in a few jumps.

"Master, look, the lotus seeds are ripe!" Xiao Xiang handed over the lotus pod she had picked to Jiang Li's hands with both hands.

Seeing Xiao Xiang's coquettish and smiling face, Jiang Li swallowed back the reproach that he wanted to export, his face was still flat, but there was a faint smile on his lips.

Zhao San floated over and said in a surprised tone: "I saw that gang!" ”

"Which group?" Jiang Li and Xiao Xiang glanced at each other, and both of them were shocked. Seeing that the pedestrians on the long street are all fresh faces, I don't know who Zhao San is talking about without a head or a brain.

Sixi, who had always lowered his head and was bored, was shocked, and he was angry with the big Yan man who pretended to be pockmarked all the way, and when he heard the words, he pressed the scabbard with his hand and said, "But the big Yan man who escaped?" ”

"It's not. It was the gang that beat away the bandits in the mountains and forests. After Zhao San finished answering, he pouted at Sixi and sneered: "What if it's that Dayan?" Without the help of my eldest brother, second brother and fourth brother, you may not be able to subdue him when you see him. ”

Since losing to Sixi in Yanziji, Zhao San has to find an opportunity to hit Sixi's self-confidence at any time.

Sixi was stupid, and it was rare to answer Zhao San's contempt, and he looked at Jiang Li: "Master, do you want to find out their details?" ”

Jiang Li also has this intention. It can be seen that Sixi has been with her for so long, and she has also cultivated a tacit understanding.

Jiang left the mouth and instructed Zhao San: "Only you and Xiaoxiang have seen that group, you go." Look at which group of people have settled where, it is best to find out the details, if you can't and don't force it. We'll wait here, and we'll go back to the inn when it's late. ”

Zhao San responded and slowly turned to the stone road on the street, and the person disappeared.

As soon as Zhao San left, Jiang Li's master and servant were watching people Cai Ling by the river.

Several flat boats returned with a full load, and the boaters were actually two young girls, dressed in light blue clothes, with double hair hanging on their heads, holding a lotus leaf umbrella with one hand, although their faces were not very beautiful, their innocent and leisurely demeanor was the most charming.

The young girl waved to Xiao Xiang and greeted her in a voice like a silver bell: "Little brother's light skills in dragonfly water are excellent, I can't imagine that people are so handsome!" ”

Xiao Xiang blushed. Another older girl on the boat scolded her sister, and the two of them didn't know what to say, and giggled and went ashore.

The people waiting on the shore were men and women, and they packed up the goods, and the little girl came over, holding the water chestnut in both hands and putting it in Xiaoxiang's hand, "My name is Hongling, and my home is by the river." These fresh water chestnuts are for you! After saying that, he turned around and ran away with a red face.

Jiang Li looked at Xiaoxiang's hands, it was some Hongling and Wuling.

"That girl has a crush on you!" Jiang Li gloated over Xiaoxiang's 'erotic encounter'.

Seeing that Xiaoxiang looked disgusted with the water chestnut that had just arrived, Jiang Li smiled and glanced at Sixi, who had been staring at the little girl just now. Jiang Li smiled and said: "Some people are not satisfied with sending things, and some people want and no one sends them, which shows that God is unfair!" ”

"It's just fresh water chestnuts, what's so strange." Xiaoxiang held a handful in her hand, drenched in water, and threw it or not.

Sixi stretched out his hand to pick it up: "If you don't want it, just give it to me." Little Xiangba couldn't get rid of it, so she did a favor casually.

Sixi held the water chestnut in his hand, with a look of treasure, "This Wuling is also called Yuanbaoling, I heard that only Jiangnan has it, and I didn't expect it to be picked in the Xiushan River in the north!" As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at the little girl who was walking away, and her chubby face squinted with a smile. sighed: "It's really rare. ”

Jiang Li's eyes rolled and he smiled silently. I don't know if Sixi is talking about water chestnuts or people.

"Sixi, how old are you this year?" Xiao Xiang asked in an old-fashioned tone.

Sixi blinked and replied honestly: "Eighteen years old." My grandfather and my father were married at my age. ”

"Oh!!" Jiang Li and Xiao Xiang spoke in unison and dragged out a long end.

Sixi reacted, didn't argue, blushed and peeled a water chestnut to eat.

On this kung fu, Zhao San returned to report the news: "That group of people entered a big restaurant, and I saw the name of the restaurant, which is called Mei Xianju." ”

"Mei Xianju?!" Jiang Li was stunned. turned around and instructed Sixi: "You go around to find someone to inquire, there are a few Mei Xianju in this Xiushan ancient city." ”

Four happy promises, back and forth for a moment: "Only this one." I heard that it is still a hundred years old. ”

Jiang Li smiled: "It's not a coincidence. Let's go, go to Mei Xianju. ”

Meixianju is the largest restaurant in Xiushan Ancient City, the building is divided into three, one facing the street, and two are back. The three buildings are connected by a gateway. Jiang Li first heard of this restaurant, or in this life, he heard his mother mention it when he was a child.

In addition, before leaving, the shopkeeper Ge gave her a detailed map of the Mei family's industrial distribution, and greeted the shopkeepers below through the caravan several months in advance, that is to say, this Mei Xianju restaurant was also one of the dowries given by her grandfather to her mother back then.

Including Anyang County, which goes further south, there are still several industries there, and Jiang Li knows these better than Ge Hai in his heart. Therefore, she said that she came out to hang out casually, but in fact, she still had a purpose. The reason why he didn't choose to take Jiang Ju and Jiang Gan directly to Mei Xianju was because he was afraid of the Seven Poisons Sect and the Great Yan people to chase after him.

According to Jiang Li's idea, people can run away if they are alive, and the property that belongs to her is there, if those people can't catch her, it won't be good to destroy the inheritance in her grandfather's hands in a fit of anger. If he hadn't wanted to inquire whether this group of people who had beaten away the bandits halfway were friends or foes, Jiang Liben wouldn't have wanted to go to Mei Xianju in person.

After entering Mei Xianju and seeing the layout in the building, Jiang Li took the lead and walked to the main building. A young and handsome man came out and politely stopped them at the top of the stairs.

The guy smiled and groaned, and his words were quite polite, with only one meaning: the main commercial building, the people who come and go are all big businessmen, and many business secrets are afraid of being overheard, and no one is allowed to enter the building.

The guy has a very good attitude, and he apologizes vigorously after talking about the rules. Jiang Li didn't want to be embarrassed for him, so he asked him to lead the shopkeeper to meet with him.

"It's useless for you to invite the shopkeeper to come, our restaurant treats everyone equally." The young man thought that the people in front of him wanted to beg the shopkeeper to let him go, but he didn't want to make trouble for the shopkeeper.

Jiang Li motioned for Xiao Xiang to take out the silver, and Xiao Xiang slapped it in front of the young man. The young man hesitated, but he never reached for the silver.

Jiang Li had no choice but to lie: "We are from Jiangnan, and we are relatives of Ding's shopkeeper's hometown." Shopkeeper Ge told him in advance that we were coming, so please go and tell Shopkeeper Ding. ”

The guy glanced at the few people in front of him, "In that case, please wait." And he brought the money and made a compilation.
