Chapter 231: Set up
The shopkeeper hurriedly stood up with an apologetic face, "It's the villain who is in charge, the two of you wait, wait." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
When the money shopkeeper went out, he was at the door, talking to the steward, He Zongxiu couldn't help but tilt his ears, and the shopkeeper Zhu stood by the door on tiptoe, listening attentively.
The sound outside is high and low, and I can't really hear it, only the money shopkeeper surprised the 'pearl curtain', and both of them really listened to it.
The money shopkeeper came in, and He Zongxiu asked with a bit of inquiry, "Business matters?" Got a business? ”
"Yes! It's a pearl business. "The money shopkeeper is very honest.
"Tell me about it." He Zongxiu said politely, the money shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, "The business that has been negotiated is a pearl curtain, a small maritime merchant in Quanzhou, this year lost a boat, his family only has two boats, and they go together in a large caravan, and they bring people and goods...... Alas, he took some inventory and asked me to help sell it, and the rest was fine, including a pearl curtain, which was considered a valuable item, and someone wanted to buy it just now, and he would send it to others to see in a while. ”
"Let someone show me." He Zongxiu had heard of the pearl curtain, but he hadn't seen it yet, the money shopkeeper hesitated, went out and ordered, not long enough, Chang Sui came in with a one-foot square box, opened it, and the money shopkeeper two, one of them picked up one end, lifted the pearl curtain, and put it in front of the window.
He Zongxiu's eyes widened involuntarily, and under the light behind the bead curtain, the pearls were glowing with a warm treasure light, slightly moving, brilliant and gentle.
He Zongxiu couldn't help but step forward, and reached out to touch the dense, round, and beautiful pearl, "This bead is not big." An exclamation rushed to his lips, and He Zongxiu changed his words again.
"It's a shame to have big beads." The money shopkeeper motioned to Chang Sui to put away the curtain, "Beads of this size are not worth much, but the difficulty lies in the fact that there are so many beads, all of which are the same color and size, and they are round, and they are extremely rare when they are put together." ”
"How much does this curtain cost? How much does it cost? He Zongxiu's eyes could barely be removed from the jewels in the box, the luster of this pearl was too tempting.
"This curtain is small, worthless, and only 100,000 silver, if you talk about the cost, this is hard to say." The money shopkeeper was sloppy, but He Zongxiu was not polite, "Why can't you say it?" Tell me about it. ”
"Yes." The money shopkeeper is a little helpless, "one is to see the origin of this bead, secluded like this, did a lifetime of seafood business, from the South Seas do not know how many pearls to bring back, his family small business, this pearl, are their own sorting and then go out, encounter such a small but round beads, a single sale can not be bid, just stay, a few years down, it has accumulated a lot, and then hire a good craftsman to punch and thread, make this hanging curtain, in his family, that is, to give the craftsman some wages. But if you make a special trip to buy it, the price will be unbelievable. ”
He Zongxiu sighed in disappointment, his eyes did not leave the hanging pearl curtain, reached in and touched it and asked, "Who bought this curtain?" ”
"This ......," the money shopkeeper said to the end, "this is really unspeakable." ”
"Hmm." He Zongxiu was a little unhappy at once, but he didn't say anything, snapped the box, motioned for Chang Sui to take it, sat down again, looked at the money shopkeeper and said, "Tell me, what good things do you have on hand now?" ”
"Yes, it's up to Master He to do whichever business he wants to do." The money shopkeeper was enthusiastic.
He Zongxiu frowned, he just wanted to do the most profitable and cost-effective business, Zhu Da shopkeeper took He Zongxiu's meaning, and said with a smile: "We Maochangxing, we can do whichever business we want, we can do whichever business we want, what do you mean now?" ”
The shopkeeper Zhu rubbed his fingers, and the money shopkeeper sighed, "Yes, this kind of business can be done, it's just that such a Qiao Zong'er has to look at the opportunity, He Ye rest assured, as long as there is such an opportunity, the villain will definitely come to find He Ye first." ”
He Zongxiu was a little disappointed. This trip to the pepper silver, only a month, has to be handed over in full, the pepper silver is handed in, he wants to do the seafood business, where does this money come from? Waiting for the opportunity, where can he afford to wait?
"You take some fine pearls and gems first, and take them to Maochang tomorrow, show me."
If you don't do a few small businesses first, buy some pearls and gems, turn them upside down, and sell them to the palace, you can also make a small profit, at least make back the loss of peppercorns this time.
The money shopkeeper agreed, got up and said goodbye. The shopkeeper of Zhu sent him out.
He Zongxiu took Zhu Da Shopkeeper out of Qingfeng Building, and not long after, Li Tong wore a hat and also came out of Qingfeng Building, got in the car and went out of the city to return to Wisteria Villa.
…………
Dingbei Hou Mansion, Ning Yuan stood in front of the study window with his hands behind his back, listening intently to June's report: "...... He Zongxiu took the shopkeeper Zhu Hongnian, and saw the money shopkeeper who shipped goods for the major maritime merchants in the capital all the year round, and it was only half an hour that he inquired, saying that He Zongxiu wanted to do the seafood business, and asked the money shopkeeper if there was any business that could be done. ”
"Doing the seafood business?" Ning Yuan chuckled, "The boss is so short of money?" Just a bunch of idiots from the He family, can they still do the seafood business? Do you want to buy and sell in the capital? ”
"One more thing." June ignored Ning Yuan's self-talk, looked up at Ning Yuan, and hesitated a little, "Two quarters of an hour before He Zongxiu arrived at Qingfeng Tower, Miss Li of Wisteria Villa entered Qingfeng Tower, and a quarter of an hour after He Zongxiu left, Miss Li also left. ”
Ning Yuan was stunned for a moment, then turned around sharply and asked, "Is she alone?" What is she doing in Qingfeng Tower? Who did you meet? ”
"I brought two girls, a mother-in-law, in the private room next door to He Zongxiu, just one person, I didn't see anyone, out of Qingfeng Building, I got in the car and went out of the city directly."
June answered very carefully.
Ning Yuan took two steps back, sat on the armchair, and frowned, this is the first time she has moved out of Jiang's house and into the city, right? With her current situation, how could she enter the city unless she had to do so?
When you entered the city, you just sat in Qingfeng Tower for more than half an hour?
No way!
Is she for He Zongxiu? Ning Yuan's eyes burst into a bright light, if this is the case, it will make sense, this is what the eldest princess meant! Jiangnan is one step, and there is one more step in this capital! Let her come forward and start from He Zongxiu, is she going to cut off the boss's financial route?
"Tell Cui Xin, keep an eye on that money shopkeeper, who you meet, what you say, what business you are involved in, the more detailed the better!"
"Yes." June answered, withdrew and passed the word, and stood at the door with his hands down, waiting to hear the summons.
Ning Yuan stood up, stood in front of the window again, and thought for a long time, he had to find a chance to meet this Miss Li. (To be continued.) )
