Chapter 42: Hall of Fame
The Dragon Boat Festival in May is sunny.
On the banks of the moat surrounding the imperial city, willows hang down, and the shade is like smoke.
On the sparkling surface of the river, the breeze blows through and ripples.
Next to a wooden bridge in the moat, more than a dozen beautifully crafted dragon boats are docked, each with a flag on it, and the traditional characters on the flag are different.
"Sister Wan, are these dragon boats provided by the imperial court?" Bai Qingshuang, the original owner, has never come out to watch the dragon boat race, so she is an absolutely lonely girl.
"This is not provided by the imperial court, it is all made and trained by the famous trading houses in the capital themselves. One is because of the traditional festival, everyone is lively and lively together, the second is that there is a reward in the court, and the top three can get the bounty of the court, and the third is also for their own shops to do publicity. Do you see the flag with the word 'Qin' embroidered on the flag in the middle? Wan Niang knew that Bai Qingshuang had stayed at home before, so she was willing to patiently explain it to her.
"Could it be that you mean Qinfang Building? The word 'Xin' is Xinyue Teahouse? "Bai Qingshuang can make sense and so on.
"That's right, they are all famous and famous in the capital!" Wan Niang pulled her to a herbal tea shop, stood still, and then said, "Ordinary small shops don't have the ability to build their own dragon boats and come out to race dragon boats!" ”
"Actually, this still means that the rich are richer, and the poor will never have a chance!" Bai Qingshuang nodded, but he didn't think it was unfair, after all, no matter which dynasty it was, such a vicious circle was universal.
And she can only look at this situation with a blank eye, after all, she is a little person living at the bottom of society!
"However, will the owners of these dragon boats appear?" Bai Qingshuang couldn't help but think of the behind-the-scenes master of the Xinyue Teahouse, didn't he say that it might be a prince?
Thinking of the prince, she couldn't help but think of the Nine Emperor Princes, how could she think that kid didn't have the demeanor of a royal person?
"Some will come to cheer up the strong men under their hands, but some will not, such as the owner behind the Xinyue Teahouse, because the legend is that he is a prince, therefore, it is impossible to appear on such an occasion to cheer up his own people!" Wan Niang took Xinyue Teahouse as an example, "As for the rest of the shops, it depends on whether the master has the leisure and leisure!" ”
"Oooh!" Bai Qingshuang nodded teachablely, and looked around, I don't know if her father and brother have come out, if they don't occupy the place earlier, they won't be able to see the opening in front of them later.
She also wanted to see what the ancient dragon boat race was like, but in order to make money, she could only endure it temporarily, and told herself that as long as she couldn't go back, she would have a chance to watch it in the future.
They came a little early, and at this time there were not many people out of the city, but there were many people selling flowers and setting up stalls like them, and they were all occupying a position and preparing to do a good job.
However, Bai Qingshuang and Wan Niang were very confident that they didn't peek at the flower girls who sold flowers, but a few flower girls who passed by them, their eyes couldn't help but look into the flower baskets they covered with red silk, and everyone had a depressed look on their faces, obviously because they didn't know what new tricks they had made so mysterious.
No, a flower girl who came from behind knew Wan Niang, but she usually didn't sell flowers in one place, at this time, when she saw Wan Niang, she hurriedly came up and asked: "Yo! Wan Niang, what strange tricks have you come up with, covering them with red silk, are you afraid that we will steal from the teacher to learn art? ”
This tone, no matter how you listen to it, seems sour.
But there was no way, who let them not grow jasmine and magnolia flowers? Although the wild roses in the wild are white and have a strong taste, there are too many thorns, and they don't dare to pick them at will and weave them into handbags to sell people.
Therefore, I can only envy and hate, and watch Wan Niang and a little girl make a windfall.
"Sister-in-law Li, look at what you said, what a novel trick, it's just that Sister Shuang thinks that the sun is a little spicy today, and she is afraid that the flowers will wilt, so she will build a red silk to shade the sun!" There are really new tricks, but it's still early at this time, and Wan Niang doesn't dare to let them see it, otherwise, they will definitely be able to weave a few of them later.
"Oh! This is your sister frost, the little girl is really handsome, and she has a lot of ideas at a young age! Sister-in-law Li glanced at Bai Qingshuang, and she was really unconvinced.
Isn't it just selling flowers? What do you think about so many famous halls, but it is cold to those of them who have been selling flowers for several years.
"Hello Sister-in-law Li!" Bai Qingshuang smiled sweetly and said hello.
She looked at the disgust in this person's eyes, but she didn't want to deal with such a cautious and incapable person, so it would ruin her own grade.
"Anyway, what are you doing standing here? You should go a little further and find a good place, otherwise you will be careful that the flowers will not be sold later! Sister-in-law Li said as a mention of their intentions.
In fact, after looking at this place, she felt that Wan Niang and Bai Qingshuang would really occupy the space, because there is a pergola here, there will definitely be people who feel thirsty to come over to drink tea and rest cool, so they don't need to shout, maybe someone will take the initiative to buy flowers from them.
Therefore, when she said this, she actually wanted Wanniang and Bai Qingshuang to go away, so that she could find an excuse to occupy this place.
"We don't have a lot of flowers today, they just sell out, so we won't squeeze forward!" Wan Niang is also a sleek person, she saw Sister-in-law Li's plan, and she didn't come with her, but only prevaricated in four or two.
Sister-in-law Li had the heart to stay, first, she wanted to occupy an area, and she wanted to see what tricks Wanniang and Bai Qingshuang played, but seeing that the flower girls next to her walked from her side to the river one by one to find a location, she could only mumble unwillingly that she didn't know the hearts of good people, and walked away.
Wan Niang looked at her and turned around step by step, and didn't know what to mutter, and couldn't help laughing: "They are really afraid, what tricks will we use!" ”
"The most taboo thing in doing business is to operate unchanged, no matter how small the business, you have to try your best to change the tricks to expand, in order to win by surprise!" Bai Qingshuang smiled slightly, "And we just want to be the first person to eat crabs, and keep coming out with different tricks!" ”
"You, there are a lot of ghost ideas, I have sold flowers for four or five years, and I have never used my brain to think of such many patterns!" Wan Niang smiled and nodded her forehead, no need to think about it, she knew that she could make a lot of money again today.
