In the face of Chen Shimei's denial, Fan Yu knew that it was useless to persuade him. People have even found excuses, and they must not turn back.

Fan Yu got up, hugged Chen Shimei and said, "Since Brother Chen has made up his mind, then I won't bother anymore." The fake can't be true, the real can't be fake, Brother Chen takes care of himself. As for Brother Chen's matter, I will report it to the official family according to the truth. Whether the official believes it or not, it depends on what the official thinks. ”

After speaking, Fan Yu turned around and went downstairs, leaving only Chen Shimei sitting upstairs.

Chen Shimei's face was cloudy and uncertain in the private room, sometimes showing a look of horror, sometimes showing a ruthless look. When he gritted his teeth, his handsome face was extremely hideously distorted.

Fan Yu is also in the mood today, but he will not really enter the palace again to see the official family. There is already a lot of movement in the palace today, so it's better to live in peace for two days.

Coming out of the teahouse, Fan Yu walked down the street alone, and unconsciously slipped to the Bianhe Bridge.

The Bianhe Bridge has always been a lively place, with many grocery stalls on both sides of the bridge.

Fan Yu was just passing by here, but he was attracted by the grocery stalls on the bridge.

At these grocery stalls, there are all kinds of gadgets, but there are a lot of variety. Hairpins, step shakers, combs, head ropes, and rouge gouache boxes are the most common. There are also lacquer boxes, bowls, straw baskets, willow baskets, etc., and all kinds of small utensils.

In addition, the colorful dolls of rouge clay sculptures, windmills, wooden horses, and gourd flutes are also placed in one place.

"Zhang's ancient beautiful rouge, the Xu family's good velvet! Take a look and take a look, you don't need money to get rubbed! But he was a merchant, and he also carried a burden to cross the bridge.

Fan Yu was not interested in the things used by these women, but at a glance, he saw a pot on the other side of the merchant's pick, which was a wok.

Just looking at the appearance of this pot, Fan Yu recognized it, it was stamped by the hydraulic press he made.

"Merchant, you go slowly." Fan Yu hurriedly greeted the merchant.

Hearing Fan Yu's greeting, the merchant hurriedly put down his pick, hugged his fist at Fan Yu and said, "This official, but there is something he likes that he wants to give to his daughters in the family?" I have everything here, and the officials can choose slowly. ”

Fan Yu stepped forward and knocked on the wok with his hand and said, "Where did you sell this pot on your behalf?" ”

When the merchant heard Fan Yu ask this, his face showed embarrassment, "Official, you are a nobleman, do you still want to grab this bowl of rice with the villain?" There are a few pots, and the villain only bought a few bites at a high price. The pot is a good pot, and if you buy the pot, you will get a recipe. If the official buys the villain's pot, I will be able to return to my capital. At that time, the officials will buy in large quantities, and they can also report the public account at the price of the villain. ”

Fan Yu couldn't help laughing, this merchant knew a lot of messy things. He thought he was buying utensils for the government, and he even said the words of reporting the flower account.

"It's not what you think, I already knew the person who sold this pot, but I don't know where he is staying in Bianliang now." Fan Yu smiled: "Don't ask you to run in vain, take me over, and give you a hundred dollars." ”

When the merchant heard this, he couldn't help but be disappointed. But when he heard that Fan Yu still had money to give, he was happy again.

"The officials are very open, so I will send the officials over." The merchant took up the burden again, and his steps were very brisk.

The two of them went out of the Baokang Gate in the inner city one after the other, and went to the outer city to the outside of the temple.

The merchant pointed to an alley and said: "Don't hide it from the official, this person did not open a shop in the capital, but rented a courtyard." If there is any goods that come, they will be placed in the courtyard and sold to those of us who walk the streets. ”

"But the surname is Zhou?" Fan Yu couldn't help asking.

"It's the surname Zhou, and he's not very old, he looks like he's twenty." The merchant nodded hurriedly and smiled.

Fan Yu arched his hand at the merchant, took another hundred yuan and sent it to the merchant, and said, "Since you have arrived, then you will have to work." I'm talking, please accept the money. ”

The merchant was not hypocritical, and received the money into his burden, so he shouted to the courtyard: "Brother Zhou, I brought you a guest, and you come out to meet him." ”

After shouting, the merchant said goodbye to Fan Yu and left.

Fan Yu saw the courtyard door creak open, and out of it was Zhou Feng, a footman who had dealt with Caoqiao Town.

Zhou Feng didn't expect that he would be able to meet Fan Yu in Bianliang.

"It turned out to be Brother Fan, you can still find it here, it can be seen that you and I are destined! I only heard that you arrived in Bianliang, but I thought that Bianliang was so big, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see it, but I didn't think that I would be able to see Brother Fan again. "Zhou Feng is a businessman, but he is very sleek and thoughtful.

Fan Yu was also very happy, he didn't have much to do with Zhou Feng, but he just met. However, although it was only one side, Zhou Feng was willing to take out one hundred and twenty yuan to order his own wok. The other party trusts himself so much, but he also has a bold person.

"Brother Zhou, I was also free today, and I saw a merchant selling a woks on the street, so I remembered to look for you." Fan Yu smiled: "Who knew that it would be such a coincidence, and I would find you as soon as I looked for it." ”

Zhou Feng stretched out his hand and said, "Brother Fan, please sit inside, let's talk slowly if we have something to say, we don't have to stand here." ”

As soon as I entered Zhou Feng's courtyard, I saw that there were several tents set up here, and there were many miscellaneous goods piled up underneath.

Fan Yu couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother Zhou is good at business, although he only rented a yard, it is not worse than a shop." Like you, you can make a lot of money by distributing goods to merchants and selling them. ”

"What is this?" Zhou Feng shook his head and said: "Those money shops and silver shops are really making money, exchanging copper coins and silver for money, and they are like getting it for nothing as soon as they go out and enter." It's just that you have to have a lot of money, but it's not something people like me can do. ”

"Brother Zhou is so shrewd and capable, presumably in a few years, he will be able to do the business of this money shop." Fan Yu said comfortingly.

Zhou Feng sighed and said, "The business of this money shop is not something that anyone can do if they want to. If there is no official background behind it, I am afraid that if the money shop is opened the first day, it will collapse on the second day. Hey! Brother Fan Yu, you are wearing a scarlet robe, and you are actually not a small official! ”

Just now, I only cared about recognizing Fan Yu, but I didn't pay close attention to what Fan Yu was wearing. At this time, when talking about the official background, I saw that Fan Yu was actually wearing a scarlet robe. The color of this kind of robe is at least a fifth-grade official, and Zhou Feng is not lightly bluffed.

Fan Yu saw that Zhou Feng's hands and feet had nowhere to put them, so he laughed, "Brother Zhou, what are you doing?" Didn't you just invite me to tea, but now I'm going to send it off. ”

"Yes, yes, I was negligent, Fan...... Official, please sit inside, and I'll make tea. Zhou Feng said in a panic.

After the two sat down and the tea was poured, Fan Yu said, "Brother Zhou, do you have the idea of opening a shop in Bianliang City?" ”

Zhou Feng smiled bitterly: "The rent of the shop in Bianliang is too expensive, otherwise I would have opened the shop a long time ago." Now I rent a yard, although I earn less, but I use less money to circulate. ”

Although Fan Yu found Zhou Feng today because of Xingzhi, after seeing Zhou Feng, he remembered that he still had two shops.

These two shops are still congratulatory gifts sent by the eighth king Zhao Yanyuan when they moved in. I haven't seen it these days, and I don't know what it looks like.
