Chapter 7: Linyuan City

In late April, the grass grows and the warbler flies, it is a fresh season, Linyuan City is very prosperous, the streets and alleys are a peaceful atmosphere, many children play on the street, and there are countless street vendors! The cloves planted in front of the people in the city are extremely bewitching, and the fragrance is compelling!

When Linyuan City was built, it was backed by Qi Mian Mountain, built a dam canal, led the mountain spring water of Qi Mian Mountain in the city, and there was a moat built by Yuan Ling outside the city, and the waterway could go straight down to the west, and it would be able to enter the gentle water town in less than a month. Although it is not as prosperous and luxurious as Wenxi City, it can also be compared with the water town west of Wenxi City, so this place is also a place where talented and beautiful people in the east and famous families are entrenched.

Today the breeze was peaceful, and in the morning it had just fallen a little drizzle, and the mist was thick and beautiful. The most famous restaurant in Linyuan City--- Yichun Building has been in the market, and the talented man who tastes fragrant tea by the window on the third floor, sees such a scene outside the window, and can't help but compose a poem:

When the drizzle is accompanied by fragrant flowers,

Breezy mist Revlon;

At the banquet, I heard my daughter's tears,

It should be a golden hairpin with a letter.

Between the lines, it was full of teasing of her daughter's family, which caused the girl downstairs to blush for a while, and she couldn't help but laugh and scold, and the building was also lively and jubilant.

At this time, a carriage slowly entered Linyuan City, the carriage was delicate and chic, with a glass lamp hanging on one side, and an ancient jade plaque on the other side, carved with plump and three-dimensional white characters, and the two people who were driving, one seemed to be about twenty years old, with a plump body, delicate and white skin, slightly raised eyebrows, beautiful eyes, and a scarf wrapped in black hair. The other seemed to be a young man, dressed in a dark blue brocade robe, with faint moire embroidered on the collar and cuffs, delicate facial features, slightly sharp eyebrows, hair tied up high, and the same fair skin.

The carriage passed through the streets and alleys, attracting the attention of countless people, and finally stopped at the inn opposite Yichun Tower.

Sakura Niang jumped down from the carriage gently, and only then did she half-lift the curtain and wait for the person inside to come out, the person was wearing a dark brocade robe, the robe was not decorated at all, holding a white jade fan, and a string of extremely pure Bodhi root bracelets were rippling back and forth between her slender wrists.

The person in the carriage held the corner of the carriage with one hand, and landed safely with a slight jump, and the passers-by around saw this person and couldn't help but tremble, the person's facial features were exquisite, his eyes were as deep as the deep sea, as bright as a black pearl, the bridge of the nose was high, the skin was bright and white, and the black and thick hair was tied with a jade crown on the top of the head, and he smiled slightly, revealing his white and neat teeth, and his lips were pink and tender, as if they were smeared with honey.

If I grow up a little more, I don't know how many girls will become haunted by her dreams.

Sakura took the burden and followed Mo Yanxi into the inn, while Xiangxue followed Xiao'er to the backyard to park the carriage.

As soon as the two entered the door of the inn, they were greeted by a clever little er, who asked enthusiastically:

"Two guest officers, it's better to stay in the hotel."

Sakura said: "Stay in the hotel"

"Oh, please inside the guest officer, the shopkeeper, someone lives in the hotel!"

Xiao Er shouted loudly, and then led the person in front of him to the counter.

The shopkeeper saw that the person who came was dressed extraordinarily and his temperament was also top-notch, so he asked flatteringly:

"Two guest officers, I don't know how many days to stay, our family has three kinds of rooms left, I don't know how many you want?"

"The shopkeeper, the three of us, want two ordinary guest rooms for ten days."

Mo Yanxi finished speaking lightly, watching the shopkeeper's face gradually change from the original flattery to stupidity. The shopkeeper was a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to ask some basic information in a light tone, and then registered, received a deposit of five taels, and waited for the day of check-out, and then collected five taels.

Mo Yanxi didn't care too much, people in the world, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages are like this, just know whether you are warm or cold.

Waiting for Xiao Er to lead the two to the guest room, Sakura Niang took a long breath and lay on the table and couldn't move, this way has been walking for more than ten days, the road is tired, even if it is an inn, it is not good to sleep, and now when it arrives at the destination, the taut strings suddenly relaxed, and it is indispensable to be sleepy and uncomfortable.

A quarter of an hour later, after Xiangxue settled down, she also pushed the door in, and lay on the table in the same position as Sakura Niang. Mo Yanxi looked at the two of them, shook his head slightly, and didn't say anything, the two of them had been driving outside all the way, they were really tired, and they should have a good rest, thinking so, Mo Yanxi called the two of them to go to the room to sleep comfortably, and he took a medical book and read it.

About a certain time, the two of them woke up loosely, went downstairs to bring some food to Mo Yanxi's room, the three of them sat down, Mo Yanxi did not immediately move the chopsticks, but discussed with the two of them.

"I want to wait for a while to eat and go to the market, now we have only twenty taels of silver left, not to mention the countless things that need money in the future, as far as the current situation is concerned, we have to spend money on eating, drinking, living and traveling in this Linyuan City, I am afraid that this silver will not last long, we have to find a reliable way to make some money quickly."

After Mo Yanxi finished speaking, Sakura Niang Xiangxue and the others also nodded in agreement, and after eating, the three of them left the inn and started from the East Market.

I have to say that the market in this Linyuan City is still very lively, the street is full of people, selling everything, judging from the clothes of ordinary people to high-ranking officials and nobles, this is definitely a wealthy place, and the beggars on the street are very rare, and this will be evening, many people have come out to play.

There are also many stalls on the side of the street that guess lantern riddles, and as you walk forward, there are several chic and delicate painting boats floating in the river that crosses Linyuan City, and the painting boats are full of sheng songs, and the geisha doors sing melodious songs, and the guests inside are either drinking and having fun, or watching chess games, so that they are not romantic.

It's hard to imagine that the people here are so good at enjoying life, what a great place!

It wasn't until the time of the year that the three of them finished the east, west, and south markets, because the North City is a concentrated residence for high-ranking officials and dignitaries, especially the South Willow Lane, which is a house of daughters, plus the three of them are not locals, if something happens, it is not easy to argue, so they did not go to the North Market.

When the three of them returned to the inn, Mo Yanxi leaned against the window, drank tea calmly and asked:

"There are indeed a lot of interesting businesses in this city, but after all, we are from other places, and there are very few people who can intervene. What do you guys think? ”

Sakura Niang blinked her eyes and took the lead:

"Today, I have to say that this Linyuan City is really prosperous, and there are frequent business trips with other countries, there are a lot of foreign objects in the market, but there are still some things in this place that are not circulating, one is ink, just a circle, there are few shops to buy ink in the three markets, even if there is, there is no good ink, I also inquired just now, the top Qingshan ink is only sold in the North Market, but this business is not easy to do. Not to mention that we don't have a source of goods, even if there is a way down to extract profits, less than half of them can reach us in the end. ”

"There is also incense, there doesn't seem to be a habit of wearing incense sachets in Linyuan City, and I haven't seen any shops selling incense all the way down, and even incense is very simple, not to mention the body fragrance that my daughter's family wipes or something."

After listening to Ying Niang's words, Mo Yanxi couldn't help but sigh that he was worthy of being a child of a businessman, his sense of smell was very sensitive, and he already knew everything about the business in the city after a circle.

Mo Yanxi nodded with satisfaction: "Your second one is with me, although there is no incense shop, but there are still a lot of business trips to buy spices in this city, just stopped in front of the stall of guessing the lantern riddle, the lantern with the lantern riddle is very fragrant, since ancient times, there is a saying that the paper is painted with incense, this spice is estimated to have been sold by the paper-making shop, added to the paper, I think the reason why incense is not popular here may also be the lack of professional technicians, if we can be one step ahead of others, seize this position, And take the opportunity to make a reputation, I believe that the entire city east of Wenxi City will have a place for us. It's just..."

The idea is very beautiful, but for the same problem, she doesn't know anyone who understands how to make incense.

Ying Niang seemed to know what Mo Yanxi was thinking, and then patted her chest and said, "Miss is worried that there is no incense technician, I don't know what Ying Niang is like?" ”

"You know how to make incense?"

When Xiangxue heard this, she couldn't help but cry out excitedly.

"Naturally, my mother is a famous incense master, and our caravan is in short supply of incense, although I don't have the skills of my mother, but I will be an ordinary technician, and I know a little bit about ordinary technicians."

Sakura Niang couldn't help but be arrogant when she said that, and she was ecstatic to Xiangxue worship, so she almost pulled Sakura out to show off.

This is really a good way, Mo Yanxi originally thought about opening a medical hall with the reputation of the Bai family, but after all, it is not a perfect solution, and now if Ying Niang can really make incense, she can save a lot of trouble.

Thinking like this, Mo Yanxi's eyes lit up, and he turned his head and asked, "I wonder if you can add some medicinal herbs to your incense-making process?" Since we have decided to do the business of incense, we must be different from others, otherwise we will definitely be compared to the place where incense shops are popular when we go out of this Linyuan City, and we will not go long. ”

Sakura Niang heard the words and said: "Miss rest assured, I have a lot of my mother's exclusive secret recipes here, Bao Zhun Er is different from others, and this medicinal material can also be added, but the process is more complicated, not only to retain the effect of the medicine but also to cover its taste, the general incense shop technician and not to say that they can't find a way, even if they find it, it will take a long time to neutralize it, so it is rare to see it on the market." ”

Mo Yanxi couldn't help but be overjoyed after listening to Ying Niang's words, since he can make something different from other people's families, it means that he can have the right to monopolize the market, plus he is familiar with pharmacology and Ying Niang will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, it is really a godsend, it couldn't be better!

"It's just... Even if we want to open an incense shop, it will cost a lot of money to buy spices, rent a storefront and a workshop, and even if we pawn all the valuable items in our body, it will only be a hundred taels, and our money will be..."

Over there, Mo Yanxi and Ying Niang were discussing the way of making incense fiercely, and here Xiang Xue pointed out the key issues, and Ying Niang only felt that a basin of cold water was splashed. But Mo Yanxi is still confident at the moment.

"You, miss, I'm the kind of person who talks on paper, look!"

Mo Yanxi said, and took out a piece of rice paper sprinkled with gold leaf from his arms.
