This time, Liu Shangzhong came to Lujiazhuang, just to sue Sù Lu Yishou, Ying'er's incident, the yamen has conducted a public trial, and made a ruling, Ying'er committed the crime of murder, but in view of the fact that the person she killed is not dead, and the age has not yet arrived, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is inescapable, and she was sentenced to exile to the land of the Southern Barbarians for 3,000 li, and 10 years of labor.

Ye Xiaoyu was also beside her at the time, and when she heard such news, she had mixed feelings in her heart.

Decade?

Such a heavy punishment is indeed too much for a substitute who has been commanded. This qiē should have been borne by the culprit Lao Wu, but now the wicked man is at large and continues to do evil, but another person bears ten years of labor for him.

Listening to Liu Shangzhong, Ying'er did not have any justification in the court, and confessed to all the crimes, which was really unexpected by Ye Xiaoyu. With Ying'er's temperament, she is definitely not a kind person, and she doesn't even have a defense, which has to make Ye Xiaoyu a little suspicious.

But the court has already been sentenced, and this matter has really come to an end, and the matter of dealing with the fifth child can only be considered slowly and in the long run, they all live in the Lu family, Ye Xiaoyu doesn't believe that the fifth child will not show his feet.

This time, the reply from the shopkeeper Liu came very late, and when Ye Xiaoyu began to imagine planting some mushrooms in the field, the delivery guy brought a reply.

The content of the reply was very brief, just a simple explanation to agree with Ye Xiaoyu's suggestion, asking her to make some ready-to-wear clothes and sell them in his store first, and then discuss the next step if the sales are good.

Fabrics are needed to make clothes, but Ye Xiaoyu doesn't have fabrics herself. She plans to take out a few pieces of fabric directly from the handkerchief provided to her by Shopkeeper Liu, and first make a dozen pieces and send them to his Yuling cloth workshop for trial sale, to see how the market effect, and if the sales are good, then plan to open a store.

In fact, it is said to be a store, but the land price in Yuejing is expensive, and Cheng Dù will not be lower than the metropolis where Ye Xiaoyu lived in his previous life, not to mention the most prosperous commercial street, which is the more remote North District, and a small store will cost at least 2,000 taels. Needless to say, Ye Xiaoyu is a defender. Every year, they travel back and forth from the south. At most, I can earn a few hundred taels of silver, which is a lot. Ye Xiaoyu now only has a few hundred taels of silver on hand, and with such financial ability, she wants to open a store in Yuejing. It's almost a dream.

That's why she can't go it alone. It is necessary to pull up the shopkeeper Liu to work together.

Shopkeeper Liu has a storefront. And it is the most prosperous commercial street in Yuejing, although I don't know who the big proprietor of Yuling Cloth Fang is, but it can be seen from the previous business exchanges. Shopkeeper Liu can be independent, as long as his ideas are recognized by him, and the ready-to-wear is sold in his store, not only can he take advantage of the reputation that has been formed by Yuling Cloth Fang, but also have its past customer flow, people in the metropolis love to catch up with the trend, the last time embroidered with cartoon characters' purses, handkerchiefs, socks have confirmed this, as long as the quality and style of their ready-to-wear is appropriate, Ye Xiaoyu dares to guarantee the sales.

used the fabric provided by Shopkeeper Liu, and sent it to his store for sale, these dozen or so clothes Ye Xiaoyu did not intend to ask Shopkeeper Liu to pay for the work. She wants long-term benefits, and when she works with people, she always wants them to see that they are profitable, especially if she only has an idea.

However, Ye Xiaoyu's "three-legged cat" craftsmanship can only be made into simple handkerchiefs to fool customers, and things as complex as clothes, even if she dares to do it, what she makes is not like it. But Liu Mei'er is different, her craftsmanship as a female worker has been unanimously recognized by everyone in the village.

The women of the Zhuang family have no special strengths, that is, they love to compare in their spare time, compared with their own men, than their family background, than clothes, than appearance, than craftsmanship, in a group of such people, Liu Meier's craftsmanship can still be recognized, and the work can be seen in general. Last time, she made a skirt for Lu Qian, not only did Ye Xiaoyu think it looked good, but even Lu Qian, who had always been picky and disgusted, closed her mouth with satisfaction. There is also the workwear she made for Ye Xiaoyu, that is, men's clothing, which is very good in terms of workmanship and style.

So after getting a reply from Shopkeeper Liu, Ye Xiaoyu decided to re-divide the work. I wrapped small things such as handkerchiefs and purses, and let Liu Meier concentrate on making clothes. As for the style of clothes, Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to innovate this time, and planned to take Liu Mei'er to the capital for a walk in the next two days, so that she could follow the ordinary style of pedestrians on Yuejing Street.

In view of the fact that the rent of shops in Yuejing is so expensive, in fact, Ye Xiaoyu has thought about opening a house in Qingkou Town, which is across the river, where the land price is not much different from that of Quanxiu Village, and more than 100 taels of silver can buy a house with an independent courtyard on the street.

But after thinking about it for a while, I realized that this idea was not appropriate.

Although Qingkou Town is a town, in fact, the people there think and think similarly to Quanxiu Village, and it is more difficult for them to take the lead in accepting a new thing than to ascend to the sky. But if a trend has already formed elsewhere, it is much easier for them to become vassals. Ye Xiaoyu is going to open a store to sell clothes, which is also a new model in the case that the whole society is generally custom-made clothes. It's not that she looks down on the people of Qingkou Town, but because there is already a precedent for cartoon purses last time, she still decided to spend more money to cooperate with Shopkeeper Liu. Since this is a new model, then she Ye Xiaoyu has to start from one of the most prosperous cities in the country, otherwise, if she opens one in Qingkou Town, if the sales are good and others follow suit, then she will lose a lot. After all, there is no patent or copyright protection system in this time and space. And there is another key factor, Qingkou Town is the base camp of the fifth child, his son originally lived there, and recently he not only bought a house there, but also brought his daughter Chunyu over to open a shop in the enemy's lair, Ye Xiaoyu's courage has not yet been fattened to this kind of Cheng dù.

Because of the hurry, Ye Xiaoyu discussed with Liu Mei'er and decided to take her to the capital the next day.

Now it is much more convenient to go to the capital than when Ye Xiaoyu sold handkerchiefs before, due to the supply of vegetables, Qinglang and Uncle Yang have to go to the capital every day, Ye Xiaoyu and they want to go, and they don't need to hire another car, just take the car to transport the goods, although the time is a little early, in the early morning. But maybe it's because of the influence of the surrounding environment, maybe it's because of living in the countryside, after coming here, Ye Xiaoyu's problem of liking to sleep has changed a lot, especially since this year, even if there is no alarm clock, she can get up from bed on time.

When Ye Xiaoyu was talking to Liu Mei'er about this, Lu Qian happened to be there, and when she heard that she was going to the capital, she also shouted to go together, even though Ye Xiaoyu emphasized to her that the departure time was in the early morning. Seeing that Lu Qian was going, Liu Yu also asked to go with him on the pretext that he hadn't been to the capital for a long time and wanted to go to see it. So when they set off in the early morning of the next day, because there were too many people, they had to use the carriage as well, and Qinglang and Uncle Yang each drove one, one to transport vegetables, and the other to transport Ye Xiaoyu.

Because of the early departure, when I arrived in the capital, the morning market had just begun.

This is the first time Ye Xiaoyu has personally experienced the so-called morning market, and its scene is different from the afternoon market, which has a unique flavor. The whole street of Yuejing is a bit like a wholesale market, surrounded by ox carts transporting goods and busy unloading and carrying men, although the lunch market is bustling and lively, but the real embodiment of Yuejing's economic and trade strength is the morning market with such a large carrying capacity of goods.

The location of the Lu family's unloading was in an empty yard in the North District, which was specially bought by the five merchants to put the vegetables and fruits they had harvested, but because the vegetables were generally purchased from the vegetable sellers in the North District before, the quantity was not large, so there was no problem of zài storage. Now after cooperating with the Lu family, not only the variety of vegetables has increased, but the number has also increased a lot compared to before, and the business is not afraid to become bigger, so the five merchants jointly purchased such a yard to store vegetables, although no matter how much the Lu family transports, it can be sold out on the same day, but at least it can give people a place to unload. But then again, the vegetable vendors in the northern district of Yuejing are very expensive and have few varieties, and since the supply of the Lu family has stabilized, the five merchants rarely go there to buy them.

It is said that there are five merchants, but in fact, the owners of these five are all surnamed Huang and belong to the same clan brothers. The Huang family is a real big family in the capital, and although they are businessmen, their ancestors have a close relationship with the supreme ruler of the Great Cause Kingdom.

According to rumors, it seems that the grandfather of the Huang family followed the emperor to go on expeditions and fights, and when he went on an expedition to the Southern Barbarians, due to not adapting to the local climate and terrain, the army of Daye Country appeared various diseases as soon as he arrived there, like a plague, and soon the military strength was greatly weakened by the disease. What's even more hateful is that the people of the Southern Barbarian Land are good at using poison, and on the day of the battle between the two sides, I don't know what was ignited, and with the spread of smoke, all the soldiers of the Great Cause Kingdom fainted, and the Nanban won without a fight. During this war, Ye Xiaoyu had heard Ling Yu say that the poisonous gas on the battlefield should be the Thousand Soul Flower used by Liu Banxian.

At that time, the Emperor Taishang was a royal driver, and he was also in the army, and it was said that he was also hit by some poisonous gas, but fortunately, the grandfather of the Huang family was by his side, and he didn't know what method he took to rescue the Emperor.

After the grandfather of the Huang family saved the emperor, he did not go back to the capital directly, but went to a place according to the instructions of the emperor, as for what the specific place is and what to do, no one in this dynasty knows except the two of them, anyway, after the two disappeared for a short time, not long after, the palace received a good news from the southern army, and the great cause of the country was victorious. Such a reversal of the tide of the war was a surprise to everyone at that time, and several ministers in the court at that time thought that the emperor would not return, and they were ready to assist the prince to ascend the throne.

But since it is a triumphant return, there is nothing for everyone to say, the celebration that should be celebrated, and the addition of officials to the knighthood.

But there is a strange phenomenon among them, that is, the grandfather of the Huang family, it stands to reason that he has the greatest credit in this battle, and he must have been added to the rank of knight when he came back, and he was in a high position, but in fact he did not, after escorting the Emperor Taishang back safely, he did not wait for the Emperor Taishang to do anything to him, he voluntarily resigned from the position of the general, but this is not the strangest, the most bizarre thing is that when he learned that he was going to resign from his official position, the Emperor Taishang, who has always cherished talents, did not even say a word to keep it, as if he was a very unimportant person, Just let him go. (To be continued......)
