old friend
One afternoon, Mu Yi lay lazily under the tree to enjoy the shade, while listening to Baoshui talk about the recent things in Yidu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Miss, Linglong Pavilion has been open for ten days, and it has received sixty-four guests, including twelve first-grade Mrs. Miss, eighteen second-grade Mrs. Miss, eight third-grade Mrs. Miss, and the rest are the families of the wealthy businessmen who are among the best in Yidu."
"Young Master Lin just calculated it yesterday, and after deducting various expenses, he made a net profit of five hundred taels."
"Young Master Lin has been busy lately, let me ask Miss, it's time to buy some new materials, and the inventory can only last for about eight days."
After speaking, Baoshui handed over the purchase list sorted out by Baolin, and looked at the items that were clearly organized, Mu Yi was very happy, Baolin was really a business genius, and at this speed, it was just around the corner to establish the power in his hands.
Mu Yi handed back the list, closed his eyes and leaned on the recliner, and ordered, "Tell the eldest brother that this list is very well organized, so I will purchase according to this, and in addition, in a few days, I will be ready to implement the next plan, you will follow the eldest brother and give him a hand." ā
When Bao Shui heard this, his eyes lit up, and he started to do it, which meant that the young lady was going to cultivate herself, and she thought that she could learn from the young master Baolin who she admired, and she almost danced with joy.
"Thank you, Miss, Baoshui will definitely follow Young Master Baolin to study hard, and will not disappoint Miss and Young Master Baolin's cultivation."
"You ghost elf, by the way, after dinner, tell your brother to come here, I have something to explain."
"Got it, then Baoshui will go back first." After saying that, he bowed and retreated.
The courtyard was quiet again, and only the fish in the pond swam merrily.
Mu Yi recalled the conversation with Baolin half a month ago.
"Big brother, now you can use all the bookkeeping methods I taught you, everything in Linglong Pavilion has been prepared, and my identity is inconvenient to come forward, so this boss must be you."
"This ...... This is the effort of all of us, especially you, who have poured so much effort into it, I ......" was interrupted by Mu Yi before he finished speaking.
"Big brother, you know the most about Linglong Pavilion besides me. Since I let it go and hand it over to you, I am naturally relieved. I trust you so much when you are my own brother, if you excuse yourself, you just can't look down on your sister's heart. ā
"No, no, that...... Well, I'll do my best. Pauline's gaze was firmly assured.
"Well, thank you, big brother, you will have to pick this burden in the future. Also, in order not to reveal your identity, you must give up this identity, are you willing? ā
"I was originally a slave, and I could only be a small servant for others for the rest of my life, and at most I would become a housekeeper, and it would be the end. But my godmother recognized me and treated me like my own child, you and Arnold respect me as a brother, I can't finish this friendship for a few lifetimes, don't talk about it, even if you go to the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I am willing. ā
"Big brother," Mu Yi's eyes were moved with tears, you must know that in Dongqiguo, it is a great disrespect to the ancestors for a person to change his name and surname, and he will be poked in the backbone.
On the second day, Baolin took Fu Bo and some things with him, and left the Shen Mansion on the pretext that Fu Bo had returned to his hometown to recuperate.
Three days later, when the Linglong Pavilion opened in Yidu, everyone was reciting, speculating about where the sacred establishment was.
Some say that the boss behind the scenes is from Qucheng, some are from Yidu, and some are from other countries, even overseas.
Nothing was found in the specific situation.
Whether it is a man or a woman, whether it is old or young, where do these things come from, how to make them, they are all secrets that plague people, and the news in the market spread quickly, which really shocked Mu Yi.
However, in this day and age, everyone has little fun and relies on passing gossip for entertainment.
Therefore, by everyone's false rumors, the reputation of Linglong Pavilion is even louder, coupled with the principle of customer goals discussed before, only accept the family members of officials above the third grade and businessmen of a certain status, for a while, Linglong Pavilion has become a symbol of status, and the things inside are highly sought after by various ladies and ladies, and they are hot.
The days are getting hotter and hotter day by day, and in the afternoon, Mu Yi, who had just woken up from sleep, put on a cool gauze skirt, Lianxin combed her hair again, and went to Munuo's house with the finished summer product, fruit shaved ice.
Mu Nuo's yard, compared to Mu Yi, has a few more big trees, blocking a lot of dazzling sunlight, plus the ice cubes that Mu Yi let people transport, put them in the house to cool down, the whole house has no trace of stuffiness, but is very cool.
The sound of "squeak" pushing the door sounded, and Mu Nuo looked up and saw Mu Yi wiping his sweat, waving a small fan and sticking out his tongue from time to time, the funny look was really cute.
"Sister, you're here again."
"I've given you and your mother all the ice I brought in, and on such a hot day, could it be that I'm still hiding in my house? Of course, it's my ice cube brother. ā
Saying that, Mu Yi walked in, holding two cups of shaved ice in his hand, Mu Nuo put down the book in his hand, walked over, took the things, and the two of them sat down and ate.
"It's really a good thing, and if you eat it, it's much cooler." Mu Yi smacked his lips with an aftertaste.
"Sister, it's better to eat less, and be careful of stomach trouble if you eat too much."
"Don't worry, I'm measured."
Mu Nuo nodded, "By the way, Arnold, I plan to go out to see my eldest brother tomorrow, it's been a month, but I just listened to Baoshui's reply once every ten days, and I thought very much." Do you have time tomorrow? ā
Recently, the martial arts left by the Taoist chief have been practiced every day, and then I have read a lot of books, and it is good to relax for a day, and after thinking about it for a while, I promised her.
Mu Yi smiled very happily, and at the same time looked forward to meeting Baolin tomorrow, in the evening, he told Mu Qing about it, Mu Qing just gave a few words, and agreed.
On the second day, the two sisters and brothers went out to the secret passage with the two maids (red sleeves, red fei) and two little servants (Yu De, Yu Li) sent by Baolin.
Speaking of this secret passage, it was an idea that Mu Nuo came up with, after all, they had a special identity.
If someone finds out that they go out frequently, they catch some tricks, and they may also reveal the secrets of Linglong Pavilion.
The secret passage was completed four days ago, and Baolin bought a three-in, three-out courtyard next to the Shen Mansion, and asked the servants to dig a tunnel, which was directly connected to Mu Nuo's study, so that it was convenient and not easy to find, and those who knew this secret, except for the six people who went out, were Mu Qing and Luyi.
Baolin, who was waiting in the courtyard early in the morning, was also very happy to see the sister and brother coming out of the tunnel, and several people had not seen each other for many days, and they missed it very much.
The red-sleeved red fei served them tea and exited the door.
Baolin couldn't wait to ask, "Godmother is okay, what about you?" ā
"It's all good, big brother rest assured." Mu Yi replied.
"That's good, I won't see you in January, I think Grandma is more beautiful." Pauline complimented.
Mu Yi was not shy, and touched his little face, "Brother is very knowledgeable." ā
"Haha" A few people laughed for a while, and then got to the point.
"This is the income and expenditure situation and cash flow statement of Linglong Pavilion during this time. Now, we have a profit of 1,300 taels on our books, which is the net profit after deducting costs, labor expenses, etc. Pauline said as he handed over the ledger.
Mu Yi took it over, looked through it, the handwriting was clear, the accounting was clear, the income and expenditure were normal, put it together, and said to Baolin, "Big brother, thank you, this Linglong Pavilion is supported by you, I am really relieved." ā
Bao Lin just smiled and didn't reply, Mu Yi knew that Bao Lin must have put a lot of thought into today's results, and he didn't know what he could give him except for being moved.
While he was still talking, there was a knock at the door.
"What's the matter?" Pauline asked.
"Back to the master, someone came to the store, saying that there was an old man who arrived, and asked the slave to show this thing to the master, and the man also said that the master would know when he saw it." Yu De, who was outside the door, replied respectfully.
Paulin frowned and looked at the two, both of whom were also puzzled, "Take it in." ā
Yu De entered the door, handed over the things, and stood aside waiting for the master to speak.
A delicate wooden box opened, put a hairpin, silver beating, look at the handiwork is very fine, at the end of the hairpin, a small also carved a "treasure" word.
Mu Yi picked it up, looked at it carefully and didn't see anything, turned his head to look at Arnold, and there was no clue.
Just as he was wondering, he heard Baolin's excited and expectant voice, and instructed Yu De, "Let the store bring the distinguished guests here, and tell the cook to prepare the meal, I will entertain the old man." ā
"Well, the minion is leaving."
Yu De closed the door, and Baolin couldn't wait to say to the two, "It's a wonderful person, the young lady of Master Jia's family is here." ā
"Wonderful?"
"Why is she here?"
The two blurted out a question, of course Baolin didn't know the reason, but two shallow blushes appeared on his white face, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Mu Yi saw this situation, his mind turned, and he understood what was happening.
quipped at the moment, "Oh, it turned out that the future sister-in-law came, no wonder my brother was so excited, haha, his face was red." ā
When Bao Lin heard this, his face turned even redder, and he said incoherently, "What sister-in-law, is it...... It's Miss Jia. Ah Mo Hu said. ā
"Stains, if it's not the sister-in-law, then why is there a family heirloom hairpin of the eldest brother, why is the eldest brother so happy, do you want to deny it?"
Mu Nuo also understood the meaning, and followed Mu Yi to tease Baolin mischievously, "Wonderful person, it is the Miss Jia family who was related to one side back then, she is really beautiful." ā
After speaking, he touched his chin and had an expression of wanting to find out.
Baolin was very embarrassed by their staring, and dropped the sentence, "I'll go see if the food is ready", and slipped away, Mu Yimunuo looked at Baolin's expression, glanced at each other, and laughed.
Actually, speaking of which, Baolin is also nineteen years old, and he has already reached the age of marriage, this Miss Jia family, it is really the right time to come, looking at Baolin's appearance, the two of them are probably also affectionate and concubines.
You must take a good look at it, and then make a marriage with ease, it couldn't be better.
Mu Yi thought to himself.
