Chapter 258: Yijia Industrial Plum Garden

In this period, as long as there are yellow turban thieves or bandits, the city will be under martial law, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city will be strictly interrogated about some strangers entering and leaving the city.

Jicheng has Yi family shops and other industries, after Yi Ji reported her name, she could enter the city immediately, and the officers and soldiers at the city gate did not leave any difficulties.

This day continued to rush on horseback, Yi Ji was really a little unbearable, after getting off the horse, she even limped when she walked, and she had to be supported by Huang Wudie to be able to walk.

If you don't know, you think she has been subjected to some kind of inhumane bullying.

Yi Ji pointed the way, turned around in the city, and finally arrived at a courtyard of the Yi family in Jicheng.

Liu Xian has paid attention to the surrounding environment when he came, this urban area should be the urban area of some wealthy people, the mansions here are one after another, almost every mansion has a plaque written in front of the gate of Zhang's mansion, Li Mansion, Zhao Mansion and so on, and each mansion gate has a guard guarding the door.

It is estimated that those who live in this area are either wealthy businessmen such as the Yi family, or the mansions of some wealthy families, and naturally the residences of some officials.

Jicheng is the capital of Youzhou Prefecture and the economic and political center of Youzhou. Therefore, the wealthy families and so on in all parts of Youzhou will try their best to build some industries in Jicheng.

However, Jicheng is now a little depressed, and this economic and political center of Youzhou, which was once the center of Youzhou for a certain period of time, has become a bit out of name.

In fact, Jicheng is not the largest city in Youzhou, and now, many of those wealthy families will not live in Jicheng. Therefore, now Liu Xian sees that these mansions that seem to be quite good do not seem to be popular, and they all seem to be a little quiet. You know, now that the New Year is coming soon, this atmosphere should be very lively, if it weren't for the festive things such as red lanterns hanging out in ordinary mansions, then there really wouldn't even be a little sign of celebrating the New Year.

The mansion that Yi Ji brought Liu Xian and the others into was not called Yi Mansion, but Mei Xiangyuan.

After entering the inside, the garden is full of plum blossoms, and the plum blossoms are in full bloom at this time.

The Yi family probably bought this mansion to plant plum blossoms. Usually, there are people from the Yi family who take care of it here, and when these people saw Yi Ji coming, they hurried to greet their Miss Yi family one by one.

Sure enough, Yi Ji said to Liu Xian and Huang Wudie: "Brother Liu Xian, Wudie, this plum garden was bought when I was a child, and I lived here for several years. At that time, it was very lively here, and every Chinese New Year, especially on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, our family would also open a plum appreciation chamber of commerce, inviting some merchants and literati to come to enjoy the plum blossoms. Sometimes, they also hold activities such as lantern guessing, couplets, poems, and so on. When I was a child, every time during this period, people were the happiest, because there were plum blossom lambs to eat, which was very fragrant. ”

"It's so beautiful, Brother Xian, Miss Yi, let's go see the plum blossoms." Huang Wudie saw the plum blossoms in the garden, and really liked it, pulling Yi Ji and wanting to walk to the plum garden behind, where there were rockery pavilions and pavilions, which should be the place for activities in the past.

"Uh, Dancing Butterfly, plum blossoms are here. You can go see it whenever you want, and I'm tired and want to rest for a while. "Where is Yi Ji still in the mood to enjoy the flowers now? The ass is all turned upside down.

"Oh, well, that's no hurry." Huang Wudie also realized Yi Ji's current situation at this time, so she had to press the impulse in her heart.

"Rest first, this time we come to Jicheng, it is estimated that it will take a few days to negotiate things. What's more, we live here, so we don't have to worry about running out of opportunities. Well, the day after tomorrow is the Spring Festival, let's do an event. Liu Xian reached out and grabbed Huang Wudie's little hand and said: "Look, many plum blossoms have not fully bloomed, and it is estimated that they will be fully bloomed in a few days, and they will be even more beautiful when the time comes." ”

"Do you want to do an event? What kind of activities are you doing? Yi Ji was interested when she heard this, and said with some expectation: "Do you want to invite some friends to come and start a chamber of commerce like our Plum Garden used to be?" Cocktail party? “

"Ha, Miss Yi laughed, I just came to Jicheng for the first time, where did I know any friends? I mean, it's just us who have a barbecue together, and everyone has a lively and lively party. Of course, if you know any friends in Jicheng, then you can invite them to play. We can sing and dance together, of course, you can write poems if you want, couplets, and if you want to guess the lantern fans, you can do it. Anyway, let's just have fun. ”

Liu Xian saw the expectant look on Yi Jiqiao's face, and vaguely knew that she should miss the happy and happy time when she lived here when she was a child. Therefore, Liu Xian can do what he likes and make her happy.

Liu Xian is a person who has come over, a daughter like Yi Ji hid it from her father's family for no reason, and followed her to Jicheng, you know, there are still two or three days before the New Year. Chinese people pay more attention to filial piety, and during the New Year's holidays, the family will have a meal together neatly and reunite. But Yi Ji actually followed like this, if Liu Xian still didn't understand that Yi Ji had some meaning to him, then Liu Xian was really a fool.

Well, sometimes, Liu Xian is really annoyed that when he watches the Internet in later generations, those male protagonists travel to other worlds, and they are basically idiots in front of women.

As the saying goes, haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?

Even if I haven't been in love, but under the bombardment of those movies and television on the Internet, don't you know how those women behave to themselves is interesting to themselves?

Well, if you are pretentious and don't like people, then you should say nothing. Or, we are a peerless good man, we are single-minded, and we will never be abusive, and this should not be said.

As for those who don't have a heroine from beginning to end, they have cultivated and cultivated to become stronger and stronger from the beginning, and a retreat is a situation of more than a hundred years or even thousands of years. Well, immortality, the strongest in the universe, but there is no lover around, and there is no lover to share the happiness with, so what does it mean?

If eye contact can reach orgasm, then what else do you need to do with your body?

Liu Xian is definitely an amorous person, and it is most difficult to live up to the hearts of beauties.

A girl doesn't care about coming to herself, so what are you still reserved?

Love should be there, and there should be something to be expressed.

Therefore, Liu Xian had insight into some of Yi Ji's thoughts, so he found a way to make this Spring Festival more lively and make her happy.

"Really? Then I'll go and see it tomorrow, and if there are any friends in Jicheng, then they will invite them to come over. Yi Ji was really interested, and said excitedly: "But in this way, you have to prepare a lot of things, is there still time?" I think about it, first of all, I have to go to the Juyun Building in Jicheng to invite the chef, because the plum blossom cake he makes is the most delicious and has the most variety. Also, you have to go to buy wine, buy more red lanterns, and prepare other New Year's goods...... Heck, I'm afraid it's too late to purchase so many things. ”

"Hehe, Miss Yi, these are not as worrying as you are. Isn't there someone else taking care of your plum garden here? Is that what they are? Liu Xian said, pointing to some men, women, and children who had come to meet Yi Ji one after another.

There are seven or eight of these people.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Qiu, are you all here?"

Yi Ji said to the subordinates who stood aside to meet them, one of them Uncle Zhang should be in charge, and Aunt Qiu was in charge of housekeeping.

"Miss Yu, originally there were a total of eighteen people in Mei Garden, usually the eldest young master would come here to live for a few days, the eldest young master had returned to Youbeiping earlier, and the two of them accompanied the eldest young master back. The others went home on leave. Only eight of them are still left in the Plum Garden. The old servant Zhang Bodao, who was about fifty years old.

"That's enough, I've got about thirty people here." Liu Xiandao: "Uncle Zhang, right? You arrange our accommodation, and the horses, and take care of them. Then, listen to what Miss Yi said, who should be invited to buy anything, just go and buy it. There are not enough manpower, you can call me at any time, if it really doesn't work, you can also invite people from outside. ”

"Also, I need some bamboo, and I'll tell you when I get it. Also, buy some lamb...... Let's buy sheep directly, buy the one with tender and delicious meat, and beef, chicken, and fish, all of which should be fresh. Well, I'll write you a note in a moment, and I'll go buy some spices by the way. ”

Liu Xian confessed one by one.

After finishing speaking, seeing that Uncle Zhang's eyes were fixed and did not answer, he couldn't help but say: "Uncle Zhang? Didn't hear clearly? ”

"Huh? No, no...... Heard clearly. Uncle Zhang shook his head and nodded violently, but his eyes looked at Yi Ji.

"Uh...... This is Liu Xian, the young master of Liu Mansion in Liulin Village, Julu County, Uncle Zhang, what he said is what Miss Ben said, so let's do what he says. Yi Ji saw Uncle Zhang looking at herself, she came to her senses for a while, it turned out that she hadn't introduced Liu Xian yet, but, under normal circumstances, she didn't need to introduce her friends and guests to the next person, she just needed to tell him.

"Oh, it turned out to be Liu Gongzi, the old slave you said has already been written down, do you need to prepare anything?"

"Hmm...... There's charcoal in the plum garden, right? I want the best kind of charcoal, the kind that doesn't usually smoke. ”

"Yes. However, there should not be too much inventory. So buy some more? ”

"Yes, buy more, it's useful anyway."

"That, then......" Uncle Zhang said as if he was about to speak and stopped.

"Uncle Zhang, Liu Gongzi is not an outsider, just say what you want to say." Yi Ji said.

Not an outsider? Uncle Zhang kicked in his heart, and couldn't help but doubt the relationship between his young lady and this Liu Gongzi. However, he is just a subordinate, although he is equivalent to watching Yi Ji grow up, but he has no right to ask about Miss's private affairs.

But he still said it and said: "Miss, Miss, the cost of purchasing these things may be a lot, where and where is this spending?" ”

The focus of the Yi family has long been absent in Jicheng, so this place is equivalent to an industry of the Yi family in Jicheng. And every year to maintain the normal operation of these industries, it costs a lot of money, so there will be a fixed expenditure.

Yi Ji didn't think about it.

Nowadays, wine and meat are expensive, and a cow or sheep is actually about the same as a horse. It's really not cheap in terms of price.

I am afraid that it will cost more than one million dollars to purchase so much at a time. Estimates are not enough.

"Just from Mei Huayuan's account, it is indicated that it is my Yi Ji who asked for it." Yi Ji said without hesitation.

"This, this ......"

"No, these purchases, when the time comes, you give me a bill, and how much you spend will be counted as my son." Liu Xian waved his hand.

"Huh? This can't work, this plum garden is my home, you are a guest of other people, how can you spend money? Even if my father knew about this, he would scold others. Yi Ji hurriedly said.

"Hehe, Miss Yi, don't argue, these are trivial things, not to mention, we may have long-term cooperation in the future. We don't have to be so clear. Liu Xian smiled and said, "Miss Yi made a special trip to Jicheng to accompany me, I understand it in my heart." Please give me a chance to behave in front of the beauty, as long as you are happy. ”

Hearing Liu Xian say this, Yi Jiqiao's face turned red all of a sudden, she bit her cherry lip lightly, and didn't argue anymore, just looked at Liu Xian waterily, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

"Then, Aunt Qiu, you can take them to settle down in a place. I'll go shopping right away, you guys, come with me. Uncle Zhang said at this time.

As he spoke, he ordered four or five people to leave, leaving Aunt Qiu and two little maids.

"Dancing Butterfly lives in someone's small building with me, Brother Liu Xian, you also live in the back garden, just live in my brother's small building." Yi Ji said to Dancing Butterfly and Liu Xian.

"Whatever, as long as it's convenient for you." Liu Xian naturally doesn't care, if it wasn't for Yi Ji to come this time, Liu Xian, the thirty or so people, would have to go to the guest house, which is also a lot of expenses.

Yi Ji asked Aunt Qiu to take a maid to arrange the residence of Liu Xian's guards, and she asked Huang Wudie to help her, and under the leadership of the last maid, she went to the backyard.

This plum garden is about the same size as Liu Xian's Liu Mansion in Liulin Village, not as big as the Yi Mansion in Youbeiping, nor so luxurious, but it is also very exquisite.

After settling down, there was nothing to do, and after eating together, they rested separately, after all, after a day's journey, they were a little tired.

Liu Xian took Huang Wudie and Zheng Bo to Jicheng Prefecture, intending to meet Liu Yu.

Yi Ji originally wanted to go with her, because she had met Liu Yu two or three years ago, and she met Liu Yu with her father.

However, because she rode a horse yesterday, she was only now sore, and it was difficult to walk a few steps, so she had to give up and stay to rest.

It didn't take long for Liu Xian to find the gate of Jicheng Prefecture.
