Chapter 61: Brick Kiln

Her joy was obviously revealed on her face, and she didn't hide it at all, only Xu Jingxuan on the other side looked at the root of her teeth itching, glared at her hatefully, and didn't make a sound.

Bai Qingshuang shrugged her shoulders, secretly funny, a child's heart is really a child's heart, joy and anger are colorful, and he doesn't know how to hide it.

How did she know that what she thought was intentional was also the same in Xu Jingxuan's heart.

At this time, the speed of the carriage slowed down significantly, and the waiter on the carriage outside asked with a little melancholy: "Master, you are almost there, do you want to move forward?" ”

"A little more!" Xu Jingxuan didn't lift the curtain to look outside, so he commanded.

"Yes!" Although the servant answered, he was very unimpressed.

He really felt that this stinky girl who had never been inferior was not worthy of the master's appreciation at all, but he didn't understand why the master wanted to do this for her.

You must know that the luxurious carriage of his Nine Emperor Princes is a special symbol and storage of the capital, but anyone who is interested in it will make the most accurate judgment when he glances at the carriage from a distance.

The master asked him to go a little further, that is, to let the people in the brick kiln see clearly who the person who got off the carriage of the Nine Emperor Princes was, which was also taking care of the little girl in disguise.

I just don't know if this little girl who doesn't know what to do, and I don't know if the master's troubles have been arranged!

Alas~ Could it be that the master has not opened meat at this age, so that he has a good impression of such a little girl who only has the posture of Pu Liu?

As soon as this thought appeared in the mind of the servant, he himself couldn't control a chill, and quickly shook his head in order to shake off this unrealistic idea.

Compared with Xu Jingxuan's calmness and the presence of the old god, Bai Qingshuang, who did not understand his kindness, was excited, and had already lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside.

According to her calculation of about the same time, it took a stick of incense for the carriage to drive out of the capital, that is, more than half an hour, so if she walked back a little faster later, she should be able to go back in more than an hour, so she didn't have to worry about not being able to go back before dark.

Through the car window, you can already see a red brick and green tile building in the distance, surrounded by a wall, and the exposed wall is a high and high brick wall, mostly red, as well as blue bricks and gray bricks.

"Tsk, I didn't expect this brick kiln factory to be quite large!" Bai Qingshuang sighed.

After coming to this other world, she didn't care that there were no mud houses in the capital, because she didn't learn the history of her previous life very well, and she didn't know if there were bricks and tiles in ancient times similar to the previous life of the Guo Dynasty.

But at this time, I couldn't help but be surprised when I saw such a large-scale brick kiln factory.

"Master! It's here! The carriage stopped, and the waiter outside had already lifted the curtain, and a dissatisfied face appeared in front of Bai Qingshuang.

"Go down!" Xu Jingxuan glanced at Bai Qingshuang, who was about to get up, but she really didn't understand, how could this little girl not even understand the most basic politeness.

"Uh-huh!" Bai Qingshuang couldn't hide her excited expression, nodded again and again, and couldn't wait to get out of the carriage, waving her hand and saying, "Thank you!" ”

One side has already run towards the gate of the brick kiln factory not far away.

"Don't forget about tomorrow!" Xu Jingxuan felt that she should remind that stinky girl again, otherwise she would definitely forget about it.

But when he lifted the curtain, he could only see the slender back of the little swallow that had flown to the door of the brick kiln.

"Master, is it a return trip or a ......" The waiter secretly pursed the corners of his mouth, he knew that this stinky girl was also quite rude and impolite.

"Wait a little longer!" Xu Jingxuan didn't put down the curtain, but looked at the little girl with complicated eyes, as if she was already talking to the doorkeeper.

Then, when the gatekeeper looked this way, he lowered the curtain and whispered, "Let's go!" ”

"Yes!" Of course, the master's small actions were in his eyes, and he sighed silently again, thinking about whether to tell the Seventh Prince about the master's abnormality?

Bai Qingshuang didn't know that his luck was so good, and he was invited to visit without any obstacles.

Walking through the door, there were neat rows of three-color bricks stacked up, as well as gray or black tiles, although the colors and styles were more monotonous than those of later generations, but they were also very rich, at least in the eyes of a complete layman.

In the middle of these neatly arranged bricks and tiles, there are two spacious circular buildings, not built of bricks and tiles, but in the form of clay embryos, and on the same round roof, each has a large chimney, and the smoke in the chimney curls up to the sky, which is obviously a brick kiln for firing bricks and tiles.

When she was amazed, Bai Qingshuang certainly did not forget the purpose of her trip, not to study and visit, but to do business.

"May I ask this uncle, how are the bricks here sold?" The one who led Bai Qingshuang in was a middle-aged man in his forties, and she was very enthusiastic about her very simple clothes, so she naturally relaxed a lot.

I also secretly felt that what Wan Niang said was a bit exaggerated, everyone is a businessman, and they shouldn't turn away the business sent to the door, so she took it for granted that she was enthusiastic about middle-aged people.

She didn't know that the middle-aged man was muttering in her heart at this time.

He is a small leader of this brick kiln field, and he is relatively proud of himself in the brick kiln field on weekdays.

Originally, it was a gatekeeper at the gate guard who made a small mistake today, and he went to reprimand the hired man. But he didn't expect that when he heard the sound of the carriage, he looked up and saw the frame of the Nine Emperor Princes, so he naturally quickly shook his spirits and prepared to take over.

Who knows, this little girl got out of the carriage, dressed so plainly that she was close to the poor, and she didn't respect herself very much, and the Nine Emperor Princes looked this way from the carriage, and then left.

Of course, he was also reluctant to receive this little girl in person, but thinking that she got off the frame of the Nine Emperor Princes, he still tried to stay patient with her and help him as a guide by the way.

At this time, seeing the little girl asking, the middle-aged steward smiled flatteringly and said: "Girl, our bricks here are divided into three grades, the best is green bricks, firm and smooth, and durable." The inferior ones are gray bricks, which are just as strong, just a little rougher! ”

was waiting for him to continue to introduce the red bricks, but after waiting for a while without a sound, Bai Qingshuang couldn't help but turn his head to look at him strangely and asked, "What about the red bricks?" ”

The middle-aged steward was stunned, looked back at her with a very incredible expression, and said, "Red bricks are the lowest, and they are generally used by ordinary people!" ”

"I'm a common man!" Bai Qingshuang didn't understand why he had to add such a sentence later, and immediately frowned, and his good impression of him decreased a lot.

Dare to be affectionate, this is still a guy who looks down on people and looks down on the poor.

Unexpectedly, Bai Qingshuang's face immediately changed when Bai Qingshuang replied to such a sentence, and he also looked at her with a little scrutiny.

But if he can do the position of steward (albeit only a small steward) in the only brick kiln yard in the country, he must have his own specialty.

While judging Bai Qingshuang, he quickly calculated in his heart.

He should have seen her come up from the frame of the Nine Emperor Princes with his own eyes, and the Nine Emperor Princes deliberately waited for his gaze to be sure before leaving.

Then, the identity of this little girl is more difficult to guess.

Perhaps, the Nine Emperor Princes deliberately made their maids look like this poor to inspect them!

Otherwise, how could a small ordinary person come out in the frame of the Nine Emperor Princes, and after seeing himself and introducing himself, he didn't even have a little respect?

Uh-huh! Right! It must be like this!

After the middle-aged steward instantly set his guess, his face immediately regained and flattered: "The girl said that she was laughing!" ”

"I'm not laughing! Or behold that the material of my garment is coarse cloth. Bai Qingshuang looked at her coarse cloth clothes, although she also has a little money now, but for her future career, she still saved money and only bought a batch of coarse cloth, and the family bought two new clothes.

And what she is wearing today is the new clothes made by Bai Yao's own hands, but the material is just a little worse.

The person in charge was just staring at her clothes, so she said it on purpose.

But when she said this, the steward's heart was even more bottomless, so she quickly nodded and smiled, and apologized: "Please forgive me, the girl said the wrong thing!" ”

Bai Qingshuang was anxious to go to the sea = and went to Liulichang to have a look, so he didn't want to spend time here with him, so he waved his hand, stopped him from apologizing and asked: "Then what is the price of this red brick, and how is the gray brick sold?" ”

The appropriate amount of green bricks is not much, and it is difficult to burn, I heard that it is exclusively for the royal family like colored glass, so Bai Qingshuang did not ask the price of green bricks.

But she didn't know that her question made the steward misunderstand again.

He thought that it was indeed sent by the Nine Emperor Princes to make an unannounced visit.

Because the bricks are exclusively for the royal family, the price is fixed and cannot be changed.

However, red bricks and gray bricks can be sold to ordinary people, so there is a discrepancy between the reserve price quoted to the big boss and the selling price.

Thinking about it scares him a lot.

Silently sweating, he hurriedly quoted the same price as the report and said: "If you go back to the girl, the gray bricks are five dollars a penny!" Red bricks are ten dollars a penny! ”

"So cheap?" This price surprised Bai Qingshuang.

She remembered that Bai Yao said that the gray bricks were a penny a piece, and the red bricks were two pennies a penny, so how could they get here and be half cheaper?

Really, is it?

The steward was so frightened that he was really sweating, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. But I kept muttering in my heart: It's over! Finished! Is this really hearing the wind to check the accounts? What can I do? What should I do? R1152
