Old man Qian's last words moved the hearts of the big house and the second room. In the countryside, what about the shopkeeper, where is it better to catch up with the provincial capital? They all nodded in agreement.

Qian Sangui said with a smile, "What my father said is that in the future, our descendants will not only become provincial people, but also strive to go to the capital to develop and see what the Son of Heaven is like at his feet." ”

These words made everyone yearn for it, and they all talked about their longing for the future.

Old man Qian patted his thigh and said, "Since we want to develop into the provincial capital, it is better to open the general shop of the 'old brother' in the provincial capital." There is convenient transportation, there are many people, and the purchasing power is strong, and it is easier to make money. Manchuan and Manhe can also go to the provincial capital earlier and help the fourth child to do it together. ”

Qian Sangui thought about this reason, why didn't he think of it? He also became excited, and asked Qian Yixiu to call Qian Hua and bring the account book.

Qian Hua came to report to them, and there were still one hundred and eighty taels of silver on the account. Old man Qian asked Qian Sangui to bring one hundred and fifty taels of silver to Qian Sigui this time, so that he could slowly open up the situation in the provincial capital, and the younger generations would go to the provincial capital to live in the future.

“…… In the future, the shop will be called 'Old Brother Dim Sum Zhai', which is also better. Old man Qian threw a peanut in his mouth and said proudly.

The crowd joined in again.

Wang Shi smiled, "It stands to reason that I don't have the right to speak at this time, but I still want to say a few words." ”

Old man Qian gave the eldest daughter-in-law more face, and said, "The eldest daughter-in-law will say something if she has something." ”

Wang said, "It's not that I don't believe in the fourth uncle. But he is so far away from us, and so much silver is spent on him...... Brother, do you have to settle accounts? ”

Tang is much more straightforward, "This is a lot of money for the fourth uncle, he is greedy for ink, we don't know......"

Qian Ergui scolded angrily, "If you can't speak, close your sniffing mouth." ”

Mrs. Qian was so angry that she took a bite of her and threw the chopsticks in her hand at her. Unfortunately, the force was too small, and the chopsticks fell on the table.

Tang Shi hurriedly smiled, "Mother, don't be angry, I'm just stupid." The meaning is the same as that of the sister-in-law, why don't you like it as soon as you say it. ”

These words offended Wang again, and Wang glared at her fiercely.

Qian Sangui said, "What my sister-in-law said is also the truth. Although we can all trust the fourth brother, the brothers are settling accounts. If you want to do business for a long time, you must first set the rules. Let's do this, let's find a trustworthy account office and write down the accounts clearly, so that we can check the accounts at any time. ”

Old man Qian nodded and said, "Okay, that's how it should be." After thinking about it, he said, "I have a good candidate, that is, the Li Qin boy, he has been in private school for three years, and he is also clever, and everyone knows the roots." If he is willing, he will learn to keep accounts with Qian Hua, and then send them to the provincial capital. ”

Wang Liqin is sixteen years old and is Wang's distant cousin, and of course Wang is willing. And they all said yes.

At this time, Qian Yixiu did not have the right to speak, as an observer, she saw the discussion of several people in power, and the Qian family business had a qualitative leap.

At night, Cheng Yue hugged Qian Yixiu tightly when she slept, and repeatedly said things like "You must come back soon, my mother is looking forward to it at home".

The weather is hot, and it is not very comfortable to be hugged by the little lady, but I can understand her mood, and Qian Yixiu is also hugged by her.

The next day, just after dawn, the family got up.

When she went to the provincial capital, she was not familiar with the place, and Qian Yixiu didn't dare to dress up as a celestial person, and the scene of being robbed by the opera troupe in the county town made her feel palpitations until now.

She brought with her two sets of old clothes, one she wore yesterday and a muslin dress made this spring. Wearing the peach-colored muslin dress made last year, it was already a lot shorter, Qian Xiaoyu connected the jacket and skirt with a circle of moon-white muslin, and also embroidered a circle of peach blossoms on the muslin. At her feet were straw-soled fabric sandals of her own invention.

Qian Yijin wore a set of bright blue muslin shorts and shorts.

Qian Yixiu was very envious of what he was wearing, in this era, boys can wear shorts, but girls can't wear short skirts, and they can't even wear short-sleeved clothes.

This is still good in the previous life, a man is not a gentleman when he goes out in shorts, but a woman is sexy when she wears a crop top and ******.

After eating, Qian Hua and Huang Tie took all the things they wanted to bring to the gate and put them away.

The little lady held the two children and kept instructing, and when she saw Wang Liang's carriage coming, tears couldn't help but roll down. Qian Yixiu and Qian Yijin put one arm around each other and persuaded a few words, then let go of their hands and followed their grandfather into the car.

Wang Liang hadn't seen Cheng Yue before, but when he glanced at it today, he was also shocked. It turned out that he heard that the daughter-in-law of the Qian family's third room looked better than a fairy, and he thought it was an exaggeration. I feel that the countryman has never seen the world, and when I see a white and good-looking woman, I think it is a fairy. Although he didn't dare to take a closer look today, even if he only glanced at it, he had to admit that no one of all the ladies in the Song Mansion could catch up with Cheng's appearance.

Qian Sangui took his grandchildren and jumped to sit in the carriage, and Wang Liang and Qian Hua sat outside.

Because the car will often pull items from the township, it is huge. Even if the things brought by the Wang steward's family and the things brought by the Qian family are placed in the back, the remaining space is relatively large. Wang Liang had a heart, knowing that Qian Sangui was not in good health, and made his special seat more comfortable, so that he could recline and rest.

Qian Sangui accepted his affection and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang." ”

Wang Liang said with a smile, "Third Uncle Qian is an elder, so there is no need to be polite. ”

The carriage stopped at the entrance of Darong Village, where Wan Dazhong was standing and waiting. Wan Dazhong got on the bus and didn't get into the carriage, but sat outside with Wang Liang and Qian Hua.

Riding in a carriage is boring and sinful. Although the small curtains on both sides of the carriage and the curtains in front of the carriage were opened, the compartment was still stuffy and bumpy. The two brothers and sisters were still interested at first, and after the carriage passed Xishan County, they fell asleep, and Qian Sangui had already fallen asleep on the back of the chair, and even the energetic jumping also fell asleep.

A few men outside the car were chatting and laughing.

At noon, I arrived at Wenhua County, a neighboring county. Before entering the city gate, Wang Liang said that he had to let the horse rest and feed some good food. When you go out, horses are far more expensive than people.

They found a small restaurant, Xiao Er was very familiar with Wang Liang, and after greeting him warmly, he led the horse to the backyard to feed the forage.

The wine is called Guangxing Wine Shop, which is not big, and most of the people who come and go are merchants.

Qian Hua helped Qian Sangui out of the carriage, and Wan Dazhong held Qian Yijin's hand tightly, and asked Qian Yijin to pull his sister tighter. Qian Yijin became nervous when he heard this, and pulled his sister's hand tightly.

A few people and a dog entered the wine shop, sat down around a table, and Wang Liang asked for a few dishes and a pound of wine.

Qian Yijin asked Xiao Erdan to take a bowl for Hopping again.

Although it is just a few home-cooked side dishes, Qian Yijin's little brothers and sisters also eat very fragrant. Probably to let the horses rest more, the men drank slowly, and the meal lasted more than an hour. Halfway through, Wan Dazhong asked for a few more dishes. After eating, Wang Liang and Qian Hua rushed to pay the bill, but neither of them robbed Wan Dazhong.

At the end of the day, the carriage continued to move. In order to be in a hurry, the carriage did not stop for dinner, and everyone ate some snacks brought by the Qian family.

The Great Qian Dynasty pursued the practice of closing the city at 5 o'clock in the morning, that is, closing the city gate at 8:08 p.m. in the previous life.

At the beginning of the year, the carriage finally crossed the moat and entered the provincial capital of Xizhou. At this time, it is the beginning of the lanterns, the shops on both sides of the street have not closed, the lanterns are hung high outside the building, and the candlelight is shining inside the building, which is a prosperous scene.

The curfew is only implemented at important moments, so it is still relatively lively and prosperous at night, especially in the provincial capital.

Qian Yixiu sighed a lot of emotion, it was really a thing, it was a ghost when he came here a year, and now he is a human.

Qian Sangui's eyes were red, how many nights of dreams in this place haunted him, thinking that he would never come again in this life, but he didn't expect him to come anyway. Although he is missing a leg, his net worth at this time is something he couldn't have imagined when he ran darts more than ten years ago.

At that time, his greatest wish was to save a net worth of five hundred taels of silver, so that his parents, wife and children would always have no worries about food and clothing. His wish was not fulfilled despite his desperate efforts, but it was fulfilled by the luck of his granddaughter.

Wang Liang once went to Qian Sigui's house and directly dragged them to a small street near the city. The roads are narrow and the houses are low, and it looks like a place for the poor.

Qian Sigui's family lives in a small courtyard, with four rooms on the front and four rooms on the left. The main room is occupied by people, and the wing room on the left is a drying room for making snacks, one is a warehouse, one is a kitchen, and the lowest one is a thatched house.

On the right is a fence that shares with another yard. Under the fence is a chicken pen with a few chickens in it.

There was also a towering tree in the yard, taller than his house.

It is this courtyard, and it is also rented by Qian Sigui's family for one tael of silver a month.

Qian Sigui already knew that they were coming, and the room was ready. It's just that I didn't expect Wan Dazhong to come and readjust the place where he lived. also said politely, "My house is narrow, and the big lieutenant general will be ordered." ”

Wan Dazhong did not have the consciousness of not bothering others, and said with a smile, "Fourth Uncle is polite, I am a rough person, and I can sleep with a layer of grass on the ground." ”

There are four houses in total, three bedrooms and one hall. Qian Sigui and Qian Sangui have a room, Wang has a room with Qian Manting and Qian Yixiu, Qian Hua and Wei have a room, and Wan Dazhong has a house with Qian Yijin and Qian Manpo sleeping halls.

To be poor in a provincial town is better than to live in the countryside, at least to live spaciously. At night, Qian Yixiu was so hot that he couldn't sleep, the space was already small, and he hung a gauze tent, which was even more stuffy.

It wasn't until the second half of the night, when the weather cooled down, that Qian Yixiu gradually fell asleep.

By the time she woke up, the others had already finished breakfast. Qian Manting smiled, "My mother said that you didn't sleep well at night, so let you sleep more." ”

Qian Yixiu came out to eat, and breakfast was a bowl of mung bean porridge, a piece of dim sum, an egg, and a piece of tofu. The mung bean porridge is boiled thickly, it is very delicious when it is cooled, and the tofu milk also has a unique taste.

"What about my father and brother?" Qian Yixiu didn't see them as soon as she woke up, not even the other men.

"My dad took them to the shop, which was two blocks away from my house." Aunt Manting said.

Qian Yixiu smiled and took out four silk head flowers from the package and gave them to her, which was made by Qian Xiaoyu, which was extremely beautiful.

Qian Manting smiled and browled, and immediately put two hairpins on his head in front of the mirror, "This flower is so beautiful," and wondered, "Why is it better than the flowers sold in the provincial capital?" "The little girl still has a sense of superiority over the provincial people.

Qian Yixiu said, "This is made by Sister Xiaoyu in the style of the capital." ”

"Oh, no wonder, the things in the capital must be better looking than those in the provincial capital." Qian Manting suddenly realized.

When I came to the courtyard, I heard Wei and Wang taking two people to make snacks in the drying room. The foliage of the large trees is luxuriant, blocking out the sunlight and making it look a little gloomy.

There was a scolding sound from the yard next door, as if it was a mother-in-law scolding her daughter-in-law. If the daughter-in-law is not convinced, she will also quibble a few words, and the mother-in-law will scold even more fiercely.

Qian Manting pouted and said, "This family has to quarrel every day, and it's annoying." ”

When Wang heard the two little girls coming out, he came out and instructed, "Xiu'er, play with Aunt Ting at home." The Xizhou capital is large, and there are many flowers. When you have an adult with you, you can go out and play. He said to Qian Manting again, "Tinggu is playing with Xiu'er and turning the rope, don't run around." ”

Qian Yixiu sadly followed the little girl Qian Manting through the rope all morning, until Qian Sangui and them came back.

Qian Sangui fully affirmed Qian Sigui's work, and the two brothers studied the specific matters of running the "old brother" dim sum restaurant. The business in the provincial capital was better, and Qian Sigui's family sold more than 100 taels of silver. It's just that the place and personnel are limited, otherwise it will be sold more.

The two brothers discussed renting a larger yard at a larger port, a shop in the front, a snack in the backyard, a few more apprentices, and two more stoves to expand the scale.

The next day, Qian Sigui, who had taken office as a new official, happily went out to find the courtyard.

Qian Sangui took his brother and sister and Qian Hua to go shopping, and Wan Dazhong didn't know each other and wanted to go with him. On the way, Qian Sangui hinted that he had a few beads that he bought when he was running darts in his early years, and wanted to sell them to buy some fields and buy a dowry for Aunt Xia.

Wan Dazhong said with a smile, "Before I came, my father specifically inquired about the market in the provincial capital, and said that Baoji Yinlou is Lao Tzu, and Tong Su is not bullied, so let me go there to buy some jewelry for Aunt Xia." But the stuff there is too expensive, and I can only afford one. For other jewelry ornaments, you still have to go to the general shop to buy. After saying that, he smiled embarrassedly.

Qian Sangui nodded and said, "Baoji Yinlou is really good, I also helped this Yinlou bet on darts back then." He also persuaded Wan Dazhong to say, "The things in this house are indeed too expensive, and the dowry of Dazhong should also be done within your means, don't be too expensive." ”

Qian Yixiu was still thinking about how to persuade the third noble grandfather to enter the Baoji Silver Building, but she didn't expect that they all thought that this house was good, but it saved her saliva. However, this Wan Dazhong really doesn't know each other, why doesn't he know how to avoid suspicion about this.

The Baoji Silver Building is on West Street, far from here. Out of the alley, Qian Hua hired a donkey cart.

The road is full of traffic, pedestrians are bustling, and the shops on both sides are lined up one after another, which is much larger than the county town of Xidingshan, and it is also much more prosperous. In this era, the defense of men and women was not very strict, and occasionally women in satin clothes could be seen walking on the street, but it was rare.

I walked for more than half an hour to reach the Baoji Silver Building on West Street. (To be continued.) )
