Chapter Twenty-Six: Thrilling

Ji Fan and Ji Zheng came to Tian'anju.

The two walked straight to the private room at the end of the third floor, only to see that the mother of the Youxiang Pavilion had not yet arrived.

Ji Zheng looked at the empty private room and said to Ji Fan, "Brother Huang, you said that woman shouldn't come, it's almost now, why can't you even see a figure?"

"No, she will definitely come," Ji Fan began.

Ji Zheng just wanted to speak. But I heard a coquettish laughter outside the door, and then the mother who was dressed in a gorgeous Youxiangge, shaking a fan in her hand, still wearing enchanting makeup, twisted her waist and walked into the private room.

As he walked, he said, "Ah, I'm sorry, Gongzi Lu, Miss Lu, Mom, I'm delayed on the way, I'm just a little late, I hope you don't have to be surprised."

"Hey, why didn't that blind Miss Atsuichi come?" asked the mother of Youxiang Pavilion in a shrill voice.

"My sister ate the wrong thing this morning and is recuperating at home, by the way, she said she couldn't come, and let me say sorry to you" Ji Zheng said without hesitation.

In the past two days, there have been people in the vicinity of Zhuo Rangshe to monitor their every move, presumably this mother has already known about the matter of inviting a doctor this morning, and she is still deliberately talking here.

"Yes, then I have to tell the second lady to recuperate," my mother said with concern.

"No, mom is worried," Ji Zhengpi said with a smile.

Then Youxiangge's mother smiled politely and spoke to Ji Fan

"I don't know what I said three days ago, how is Childe thinking?"

Ji Fan looked up and saw that Youxiangge's mother was wearing a pear blossom hairpin on her head, her brows furrowed, and she spoke

"I've already discussed it with my father, it can be, but I don't know what kind of business we are working with."

Mom looked at Ji Fan, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and she raised her hand and touched the pear hairpin on her head.

Ji Fan's heart tightened, and she always felt that she deliberately brought that pear hairpin, could it be that he and Jin Ran had left some clues left by the night exploration of Youxiang Pavilion that night.

I saw the mother pluck the pear hairpin on her head, looked at the pear blossom on the hairpin and said with a smile

"What to do, don't you know?"

It seems that the events of that night were revealed.

Ji Fan also smiled contemptuously, and said, "Our Lu family has a big business, presumably you also sent someone to check the bottom, just like the informant who is outside Zhuo Ranshe every day, we should naturally be courteous if we want to find a partner, after all, it is better to cooperate by knowing the roots, so this is only a late night visit, do you say, Miss Mo Qingqing"

Ji Fan had already asked Lixia to help them make a fake identity, and these people would definitely not be able to find out.

Ji Zheng was stunned when he heard it next to him, what kind of dumb riddle are these two people playing, they didn't chat like this three days ago.

"No, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing here, why is it still Mo Qingqing girl, it is said that this Mo Qingqing girl is the top brand of Youxiang Pavilion, does it have anything to do with this mother?"

The mother, who was called Mo Qingqing, smiled, raised her hand and clapped her hands after finishing her pear hairpin, and said sharply in a voice that didn't seem to be before, "Yes, Lu Gongzi really has two clicks, and he found out my true identity so quickly."

Mo Qingqing also sent someone to check Ji Fan's identity, it is indeed true, it is rich and rival in the north.

When Ji Zheng heard that his mother's voice had changed, it was quite good, and he opened his mouth in surprise

"You, you are really Mo Qingqing"

Then I saw a few black-clothed people suddenly appear in the room, and their eyes surrounded Ji Fan and Ji Zheng with a fierce light.

Then Mo Qingqing retreated behind the man in black and spoke

"Yes, I am indeed Mo Qingqing, and I am also the mother of Youxiang Pavilion, since you all know, I can't let you leak it out" Then he spoke towards a man in black led by him

"Kill, tap"

Ji Fan chuckled lightly and said, "Haven't you thought about it, why, does this son know what you are doing behind and dare to bring your sister to the appointment, is it too early to do it now?"

Seeing that Mo Qingqing was unmoved, Ji Fan continued to speak

"Since we dare to come, we naturally come with sincerity, after all, it shouldn't be easy for you to find a more suitable merchant than our Lu family now."

The man in black approached step by step, Ji Zheng was already ready to make a move, but Mo Qingqing's voice suddenly came, "Stop" The man in black stopped his movements when he heard the voice.

Then Mo Qingqing continued to speak

"Then how dare you guarantee that you won't say anything about us"

"There is no need to guarantee, we are now in the same boat, mutual benefit, as long as the ship does not capsize, we will always be in the same boat"

"Hahaha, Lu Gongzi is really ambitious" Mo Qingqing spoke.

Then he continued to say to the man in black, "You guys should step back first."

After the man in black retreated, Mo Qingqing continued to speak

"Just now I was careful to test Lu Gongzi, and I hope that Gongzi will not take it to heart, after all, the partner we are looking for must not only have money, but also have brains"

"It's okay, after all, it's also the first to visit your Youxiang Pavilion at night, you don't suspect it's abnormal."

"Wait, brother, you went to visit the Youxiang Pavilion at night," Ji Zheng asked rhetorically.

Then he remembered something, turned around and asked Mo Qingqing

"No, brother, he is strong in martial arts, it is impossible to leave clues when he visits your residence, how did you find out?"

Mo Qingqing smiled and said, "The books on my desk will habitually pull out a corner of the third book every time I leave, although the order is placed after you came that day, but the books are placed neatly, and my pillow in the backyard of Youxiang Pavilion will also be deliberately tilted, but the amplitude is not large, but you put it neatly."

Ji Fan didn't speak. Mo Qingqing saw this. placket

"Since Childe has promised to cooperate with us, it is better to think about it now, how to show sincerity"

"I can provide you with a new place to make private salt, and our Lu family will pay all the costs, but you have to tell me where to sell it" Ji Fan said expressionlessly.

"Lu Gongzi is refreshing," Mo Qingqing replied.

"In order to show sincerity, we can pay all the expenses, but you also have to let me meet the people behind your scenes, I heard that Miss Mo and Gu Ning, the deputy envoy of the Salt Division, are old acquaintances, I think it shouldn't be as simple as just the deputy envoy of the Salt Division."

"That's natural, what is the deputy envoy of the Salt Division, don't worry, as long as you show sincerity, you don't need to ask for it, our master will personally ask to see you"

"Okay, what our Lu family has is sincerity," Ji Fan said.

Although I really want to know who the person behind them is now, I can't be in a hurry, the trust that I have earned so hard will definitely make Mo Qingqing suspicious if I continue to ask it.

"Okay, then I'll be responsible for contacting you unilaterally, and Childe also knows that what we did is not dishonorable, and I ask the insider to keep his mouth shut" After speaking, he glanced at Ji Zheng.

When Ji Zheng heard this, he also smiled and spoke towards Mo Qingqing

"Mom, no, Miss Mo, don't worry, although I'm not as smart as my brothers and sisters in the family, I will never get along with money, right?"

"That's the best," Mo Qingqing said.

"By the way, Childe, you said a new salt-making place, I don't know if there is already a favorite place"

"If you want to make private salt, you have to go by the sea, and the West Market must be the best choice, but in order to arouse unnecessary suspicion, it must not be too spacious, so I think it is appropriate to open a dyeing workshop." Ji Fan said quietly.

"That's right, brother, you are so smart, the dyeing workshop must have water, and there must be workers, and the taste of the dye can be very cleverly covered with the lo-mei of salt, and the dyeing workshop must be located close to the water, so that it will not arouse suspicion," Ji Zheng praised mercilessly.

"It's really good, the dyeing workshop depends on the son, and I hope that we will cooperate happily."

。。。。。。。

In the evening, Jiang Guantong got up from the bed and sat on the recliner in the courtyard, thinking that Ji Fan, Ji Zheng should also come back.

There were maids passing behind him, and after saluting Jiang Guantong, he continued to walk, only to hear one of the maids speak

"Do you know, I accidentally dropped the noodles into the kelp soup when I kneaded the noodles in the dining room today, and after I fished them out, the noodles turned blue, which is amazing."

"You just talk nonsense, how did the noodles turn blue when they entered the kelp soup, don't fool people, I don't believe it"

"If you really don't believe it, you ,,,,"

These words just reached Jiang Guantong's ears, and Jiang Guantong immediately straightened up and said to the maid just now, "Stop, you"

When the maid heard this, she immediately turned around and walked to Jiang Guantong's side, and blessed her body and spoke

"Princess, what's the matter?"

"No, I just heard you say that it's true that the dough fell into the kombu soup and turned blue?"

When the maid heard this, she immediately knelt down and spoke

"Returning to the princess, there is no half-truth, the dough did turn blue after falling into the kelp soup"

Jiang Guantong listened to the sound of the maid kneeling and said, "Hurry up, I just want to try it too, or you help me to the dining room, let's try it ourselves."

Dining room.

Jiang Guantong instructed the maid just now to cook a pot of kelp soup, a pot of seaweed soup, and a pot of kelp soup, and then asked another maid to knead three doughs.

Have them wait until the soup is cooked, then throw the dough into the three pots of soup and cook it.

Jiang Guantong couldn't see it, so he had to wait. Then I could only hear the little girl who was looking at the kelp soup exclaiming

"Princess, princess, this dough has really turned blue"

Then another little maid also spoke

"Princess, princess, this seaweed soup and kelp soup have also turned blue."

Jiang Guantong said, "Could this be the kind of magical substance I'm looking for?"

I wonder why the kombu soup turns the dough blue. Jiang Guantong spoke.

"Do you know what turns blue when you put it in kombu soup?"

"Returning to the princess, the slave doesn't know," the maid replied in unison.

"In that case, why don't you find something to put in the soup and boil it, and see if there is anything that will change color."

Then the maid found a lot of vegetables and put them in the soup to cook in turn

The maid didn't know why, so she had to stand obediently and observe the color change.

But there was no color change.

Then Jiang Guantong fell into meditation. The flour used to knead the dough is mainly obtained from potato crops, and then Jiang Guantong said, "Go find me some more potatoes and sweet potatoes"

After the maid found the sweet potatoes, Jiang Guantong asked the maid to put the sweet potatoes into the kelp soup and boil, and soon the potatoes also turned a faint blue.

When the maid saw that the potatoes and sweet potatoes had turned blue, she hurriedly exclaimed, "Princess, princess, it has changed, the potatoes and sweet potatoes have turned blue."

Jiang Guantong got up, and what can make potatoes and sweet potatoes turn blue is the magical substance in kelp.
