Chapter 443: Face Can't Be Eaten
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qi Jingyun, and the attendant beside Qi Jingyun took out a stack of silver tickets, there were ten of them, all of them were one hundred taels of silver tickets, a full one thousand taels, plus the previous five hundred taels, one thousand five hundred taels.
With so much money, it's more than enough to buy even one of the busiest shops on one of Kyoto's busiest streets.
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't speak for a long time, Qi Jingyun hooked the corners of his lips, bowed his head and said to Qiao Mingyue: "Lady, the shopkeeper is unwilling to cut love, and we can't be strong, forget it!" β
In Qi Jingyun's arms, Qiao Mingyue turned around three times in one step, and when the shopkeeper behind him saw that a few people were really leaving, he panicked, where did he care about his face, he stepped forward and grabbed the attendant's clothes, and his smiling face was full of folds.
"The prince stays, since the princess likes this shop so much, and it is also the blessing of this shop, I will reluctantly sell this ancestral shop to the prince."
The face can not be eaten as a meal, the shopkeeper is very reasonable and said that he can sell the store, Qiao Mingyue winked at Qi Jingyun, Qi Jingyun turned around indifferently, waved his hand, and the attendant handed over the silver to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper went to the back room, and after a while, he came out with the title deed, "This is the title deed, and even the cloth with this shop is all given to the prince, and it also makes it easier for the princess to take over the shop." β
Qiao Mingyue smiled and gladly accepted the shopkeeper's kindness, and the people around him left one by one when they saw that there was no excitement to see.
Originally, I thought I could see a good show of the prince occupying the store on the street! Who knew that it turned around, and it became a stupid prince to buy the store at a high price, and the shopkeeper was happy to blossom, and he packed it all and sent it away.
The shopkeeper seemed to be afraid that Qi Jingyun would regret it, and after handing over the title deed to Qiao Mingyue, he took the guys in the store to clean up, and left in a hurry in front of Qiao Mingyue, leaving an empty faΓ§ade and a room of cloth.
A gust of wind blew, and there was a desolate feeling.
Qiao Mingyue shook her head and sighed, sure enough, no matter what time it is, the power of money is great!
Accepting the store, Qiao Mingyue did not hire people to work in the store at will, but found a few cronies, dressed up as buddies in the store, and reopened the store.
On the first day of opening, not to mention how lively the store was, the people came to see the shop opened by the princess, and the dignitaries knew that Qi Jingyun and Qiao Mingyue were very good in front of the emperor, so they thought about taking the opportunity to stammer.
In short, the door is like a market, so it's not lively, Qiao Mingyue, the proprietress has to help collect the cash when she is busy.
Among these people, the most generous is the prince Tuoba Yu, who actually bought a hundred fine brocades, Qiao Mingyue looked at him, frowned and asked him what he was doing when he bought so much cloth, Tuoba Yu blurted out that he wanted to change the clothes of the maid in the house.
Seeing that he insisted, Qiao Mingyue had no choice but to let him go back first, and let Xiao Er send him to the house after a while, Tuoba Yu originally wanted to take the opportunity to say a few words to Qiao Mingyue, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Qi Jingyun who was standing aside with a folding fan to fan Qiao Mingyue, and decisively gave up this idea.
Sending Tuoba Yu away, Qiao Mingyue sat on a chair to rest, and while taking the water poured by Qi Jingyun, she teased: "It seems that we can make a lot of money by opening a cloth village!" β
After drinking the tea in one gulp, the dry throat was more comfortable, Qi Jingyun stared at Qiao Mingyue seriously, a little helpless and a little distressed.
Helpless, she always tries her best to make money, and feels sorry for her to make herself so tired in order to make money, but he doesn't want to influence Qiao Mingyue's thoughts, so he can only support her silently by her side.
Seeing that Qi Jingyun had been staring at herself, Qiao Mingyue stepped forward, thinking that she had been busy with things in the store all day today, which made Qi Jingyun feel left out and unhappy.
I wanted to coax him, but Qi Jingyun stared at Qiao Mingyue very seriously, and said in a deep voice: "Lady, I have something I want to ask you." β
Qiao Mingyue was stunned for a moment and nodded, "You ask!" β
"Do you think I can't afford to support you? That's why you work so hard to make money? Qiao Mingyue had just picked up a glass of water and put it in her mouth, when she heard the words, she almost squirted out a mouthful of water.
How could he have such an idea! It's not that she doesn't think that the current Qi Jingyun can't afford to support her, she is just taking precautions and leaving a way for the future.
"The prince misunderstood, I just don't want to rely on the prince all the time, what a man can do, a woman must also do, the woman that the prince looks at is naturally better than ordinary men, isn't it!"
With such a boast, Qi Jingyun suddenly swept away the haze just now, laughed, and rubbed Qiao Mingyue's head, "Also, this king is always discerning!" β
The two of them are tired here, and the little two over there trotted to the inner room, saying that another guest is coming, and he also brought gifts, Qiao Mingyue was stunned, almost all the ministers around Tuoba Yu have seen it, and the ministers on Tuoba Gong's side have come a few, and some unfamiliar ones have not come.
She really couldn't think of any other guests, "Just go out and have a look!" β
Seeing Qiao Mingyue's suspicions, Qi Jingyun pulled her to stand up, lifted the cotton curtain inside, and saw the people outside at a glance.
Dressed in a crescent white robe on his body, with only a white hairband behind him, he stood at the door, and the sunlight behind him shrouded him.
Qiao Mingyue narrowed her eyes, only then did she get used to the brightness of the outside world, "I never thought that Lord Ye would come here, I missed it!" β
Ye Yungui smiled indifferently, handed the gift in his hand to Xiao Er next to him, and said softly: "This time I came to worship, my parents didn't follow, and I was thinking about what to bring back, so I heard that the princess had opened a cloth village, so I came to take a look and choose a few pieces of fabric for my mother." β
This rhetoric...... Seamless, just ...... She didn't believe it!
What is the Ye family? The head of the five major families of Nanzhao, the business is all over the country of Nanzhao, and there are many talents in the family, such a family will come to this kind of small shop to choose gifts?
Although his thoughts flew in his heart, he still greeted Ye Yungui with a smile on his face, after all, everyone who came was a guest.
Ye Yungui smiled calmly, and chose a few pieces of fabric under the leadership of Qiao Mingyue, Qiao Mingyue saw that he was not in a hurry to leave, so he invited him to drink a cup of tea, and Ye Yungui did not refuse.
Entering the room, Ye Yungui looked around the inside, and then said with a smile: "This shop looks small, but although the sparrows are small, the princess is very discerning." β
Qiao Mingyue waved her hand, only saying that she just thought it was interesting, so she went down to play, which could not be compared with the Ye family's business.
Ye Yungui smiled, and a few people chatted for a few words.
