Chapter 61: Meeting
After parting from the scholars, about a stick of incense, Sulch belatedly appeared in front of them with a hearty smile. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Friend, you're here." With a faint local accent, he strode in.
The last time we met, there was tension, and now Sulch was able to call them friends.
Relationships are delicately represented in this kind of place.
Su Erqi's greeting was addressed to Yue Xinran. She stepped forward and exchanged pleasantries.
After meeting Sulki, the next step was much simpler, and he led the way, and in less than half an hour came to a wide courtyard gate.
The yard is very large, with earthen walls and gray tiles, just like the scene of a farmer's yard.
I don't know if this is their usual place to stay, or if it was prepared temporarily.
The yard was quiet, only the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.
Hongge turned around and watched Yue Qi and Yue Xinran walk through the door, and at the same time saw the surprised look on their faces.
"It's you." Yue Xinran couldn't have imagined that the scholar who accompanied him all the way was the young master of the Hull clan.
Yue Qi shouted, pointing at Hongge and speechless for a long time.
A smile appeared on Hongge's face, "I didn't expect to meet so soon." We're really fated to do it. ā
Yue Xinran sighed in his heart, this guy obviously had ulterior intentions and deliberately waited for them on the road, which was actually very easy to guess. Seeing that they were hurrying, and that they were followed by an escort, they were on their way to Luoshi Hill.
"You did it on purpose." Yue Xinran said in a slightly cold tone.
Hongge's smile remained the same, and he was obviously a little brighter when he looked at Yue Xinran, "I was just trying my luck, I didn't expect our fate to be not shallow." ā
With such a smiling face and a beautiful voice, it is difficult to make people really angry. Yue Xinran didn't look over.
Maybe he thought he had met a long time ago, but Yue Qi no longer had the nervousness he had at the beginning, and laughed haha, "That's right, it's fate." He felt that the young master was very kind.
Yue Xinran had a different opinion from her father. This guy looks like a ghost, but he's not a really kind person.
Especially with a seductive appearance, those eyes always look at her a little strangely, which makes her uncomfortable.
Yue Xinran subconsciously took more precautions against him.
The trade was mainly for the trade of cotton and cloth, which had been passed long ago.
There weren't too many problems, and the deal went pretty well. In the end, it was sold at twice the market price and sold to the Hel family, and the profit directly doubled several times, after all, the extra double was all profit, and there was no cost included.
After the matter was finalized, everyone's mood was not bad, and Yue Qi's heart was completely relieved.
Hongge left them to eat, but Yue Xinran directly refused.
Su Erqi sent Yue Qi and Yue Xinran out, came back and drank a bowl of water, and said with a smile: "Young master, I have also made meritorious contributions, and I can't go back on what I promised before." ā
"Don't worry. I'll arrange it for you when you go back. "Hongge rarely smiles on weekdays, but now he has returned to his usual appearance.
Sulki was used to seeing his face, and if Hongge smiled at him, he would be afraid.
"Young master, how do you feel? That Yue Xinran is much stronger than his father. ā
"I said, that's just it, the last time you came back, you praised him with me, saying that he was more courageous than ordinary Central Plains men. I don't think so. Hongge raised his eyes, but he didn't know where he was looking.
"What? What do you think he can't do? ā
"Looks." Hongge touched his hair, his eyes flashing.
"Oh! Yes, he's a little girly, but doesn't that mean he can't look good or something? Sulch sat on the side and scratched his chin, looking a little confused, "There is no such girly man in our clan. I'm afraid it's hard to find a daughter-in-law in the future. ā
The corners of Hongge's mouth moved slightly, and this was his expression of joy.
He stood up, walked outside, and left a message on the way out, "Silly boy." ā
Sulch didn't hear clearly, but even if he did, he didn't know what it meant.
ā¦ā¦
The carriage went up the avenue, and the speed slowly slowed down.
Leyu fiddled with water and snacks on the side, and kept shouting that Miss was hard.
"This deal is too exquisite! Come to such a remote place. Leyu was very dissatisfied with the buyer's approach, and she was not allowed to follow in to serve the young lady before, so she could only wait in the courtyard outside the door.
Yue Xinran said with a smile: "This deal is very cost-effective, and you can make a lot of money." And my father said, "I shall have my share of the money I earn." When the time comes, I will leave it to you for safekeeping ā
Leyu's eyes immediately lit up, "Really? How many percent do you give us? ā
"It's a few percent, it's good to have an achievement." Yue Xinran shook his head and smiled. However, even so, it is not a small amount. Especially for the next cooperation, the other party wants more cloth and high-quality brocade.
She always felt that this transaction was not Chen Yuan's purpose, and this money did not necessarily have to be earned by the Hur people, everything depended on the future.
When the cooperation is getting deeper and deeper, the types of goods have changed, and the clues can be revealed.
Chen Yuan was able to get the antidote in just a few days, and the identity of the person behind him must not be low.
Is it Chen Yuan's younger brother Chen Yu? Does Chen Yu know about Chen Yuan's movements, or does he not know at all? I'm afraid the former is more likely.
"Miss, you see, this is not the same way we came."
Yue Xinran opened the curtain and looked at it, and found that it was really different, it was his father's order, after all, the route they came to had already let Hongge know. This is also done just in case.
The road is a bit longer than when you came. In any case, they were unable to return home before the gates were closed, and had to stay out for the night.
In order to stay away from Hongge and the others, they walked as much as possible and spent the night in an inn in Linxian.
ā¦ā¦
Inside one of the upper rooms of the inn.
"Your Excellency, a group of merchants has just moved into the inn. There were eleven people in all, a merchant, two coachmen, six guards, and two women disguised as men, who seemed to be one master and one servant. ā
Gongsun Yu's eyes were still staring at the chessboard in front of him, and he asked, "From which direction did you come from?" ā
The attendant pointed his finger.
"Oh?" Gongsun Yu put down the chess pieces in his hand, "Go and inquire, who it is." Don't be alarmed. ā
"Yes!" The entourage immediately received the order, saluted and retired, every movement was very neat and crisp, and at first glance it was specially trained.
ā¦ā¦
Obviously he was out of town, and he had just experienced a deal with the Hull clan, but Yue Xinran slept soundly this night.
She pushed open the window, breathed in the air, and felt her whole body stretch.
Leyu is still sleeping, and I don't know when I fell asleep last night. This girl has no heart on weekdays, but she was very worried yesterday.
She couldn't bear to wake up Leyu, so she simply left the water in the room to wash up.
It's convenient to wear men's clothes, and you don't have to carefully pan your head or choose your clothes carefully.
She glanced back at Leyu and decided to wander around the inn. Such opportunities are not common.
