In any case, at this time, the haze of the Jia family dissipated, and everyone was happy for a while. Mrs. Jia also took out the rice wine and poured a glass for each person.

The helpers in the outer courtyard of the Jia family were also emotionally infected, and looking at the expression of the master's family, it seemed that the trouble encountered had been solved.

Jia Jingmin had something on her mind, and she was embarrassed to sit with Qin Feng for too long. Second, I also want to negotiate the perfume business as soon as possible. So after a hurried meal, I took Ruyi to the room to configure the sample.

Qin Feng and Jia Song drank a few glasses of rice wine with Mrs. Jia and were about to return to the outer courtyard to rest for a while.

Jia Jingmin came out with Ruyi. Jia Jingmin should have deliberately dressed up, Luo Yi He fluttered, and his light clothes were far away from the wind. In the midst of the beautiful eyes, a faint fragrance of roses came.

Qin Feng only felt a flower in front of him, and said with a little wine: "This is the fairy who came out of the painting?" ”

Jia Jingmin's eyes widened and glared at Qin Feng fiercely. This time, Qin Feng could see clearly, and there was a lot of anger.

Jia Song twitched his nose and praised: "It's so fragrant!" I'm afraid that before my sister talks about poetry, Miss Shu will ask you where the incense comes from. By the way, sister, what kind of new words are you preparing? But you did it yourself? ”

"I don't understand what words are said to you!" Jia Jingmin scolded her younger brother, and glanced at Qin Feng inadvertently. Qin Feng thought in his heart and understood: if life is only as it was when I first saw it......

Mrs. Jia went back to the room to rest, Qin Feng and Jia Song accompanied Jia Jingmin and walked to the outer courtyard as she wished.

Seeing Jia Jingmin go out in the carriage with Ruyi, Jia Song said in a low voice: "Sir's sentence, the fairy who came out of the painting, said it well. It's much better than what is beautiful and sensitive. ”

"You know?"

"I don't understand, but I can read my sister's expression."

"When you're tired, go back to your room and rest. If there's anything to do, don't bother me. ”

Today, the Jia family is full of joy and sorrow, and Qin Feng is involved in it, and he is also bothered. Whether it was Mrs. Jia or Qin Feng himself, they all needed to rest.

Plans didn't change quickly, although I wasn't ready yet. But in order to solve the crisis of the Jia family, he had to start the perfume business first. Now that it's started, try to do it well. In short, the Jia family must not be allowed to fall into a crisis and let his attempts against Miss Jia come to naught.

After drinking two pots of tea, take a nap.

Jia Song came to call the door again and invited Qin Feng to sit in the front hall. It was said that Master Liu, who was the county government, brought a head catcher to report the case, and Master Liu proposed to ask Qin Feng to go over and sit with him.

Qin Feng still has a little impression of Master Liu, and the day before yesterday in the court, he looked at each other a few times. But why did you ask me to attend the case when you came to Jia's house to report the case? A master, a beautiful woman, are you afraid of gossip? Isn't there still a servant and Jia Song? Yes, Master Liu is also a reader, and a reader needs a reader to sit with him, as if he is so particular.

As soon as he went out, he saw a head catcher sitting at the stone table drinking tea, and when he heard the sound, he turned his head to look at it, and immediately stood up, with a smile on his face: "Qin Xiu is good!" Qin Feng smiled: "Cao Zhutou!" Such a coincidence? ”

"It's not a coincidence, Master Liu is coming to Jia's house, I said that I often patrol the streets here and know where Jia's house is. I said a few words to Qin Xiucai again, and I took the initiative to ask Master Liu to come over. Cao Zhutou explained with a smile.

"Cao Zhutou has a heart." Qin Xiucai arched his hand. Cao Zhutou pointed to the front hall: "Qin Xiucai, let's go in, Master Liu is inside." ”

Walking into the front hall, Master Liu was sitting on a chair, and when he saw Qin Feng coming in, he stood up and said with a smile: "Qin Xiucai, how is your leg injury?" ”

"Thank you Master Liu for your concern, the leg injury is fine, Master Liu came to the door today, Qin Feng doesn't know, he missed the distance, and please forgive me." Qin Feng bowed.

"Haha, you are a talented teacher, I am a down-and-out man, I am older than you, if you don't dislike it. How about calling me Brother Liu? ”

"Brother Liu!" Qin Feng is very happy, looking at his identity, Master Liu is a lifter, and he is qualified to call Mr. Speaking of age, call Uncle Liu, Qin Feng should be. Master Liu just asked Qin Feng to call him Brother Liu, that is, he looked up to him very much and was willing to associate with his peers.

After saying hello, Mrs. Jia beckoned everyone to sit down again, served tea as she wished, and waited aside.

Master Liu opened his mouth and said: "Brother Qin called me Brother Liu, I know Brother Qin, but Brother Qin doesn't know me." My name is Liu Ziqi, five years ago, I was in the middle of the move, I had no way out, waiting for the court to send me, and there was no time for me. happened to meet Lord Wei, and they felt quite close to each other, so they followed Lord Wei and did chores for him, but they didn't want to waste their time. ”

Master Liu's words are plain and sincere.

The scientific examination is once every three years, and each time it is on the list, hundreds of them. When I met the emperor, I was overjoyed, and I occasionally opened Enke, and there were hundreds more. The number of Jinshi people is increasing, and there are more and more people. There are only so many official positions in the imperial court. Therefore, the longer the dynasty lasts, the more difficult it is to pass the imperial examination, and the more idle talents will be. At this time, Dahua can nominally be an official, but in fact, he has long been out of office. The official positions awarded to Jinshi are not enough, where is the turn to be promoted?

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Brother Liu said this, where do you put me and other talents?" ”

"Oh? Hahahaha, it's me who lost my words, it's me who lost my words! Master Liu laughed.

The most effective way to comfort or flatter others is: Don't beep, look at me, I'm not as good as you!

Mrs. Jia listened to the two gossiping, and saw that Master Liu's attitude towards the Jia family and Qin Feng was completely different. I had another feeling in my heart: A man, you have to be famous......

A few words of greeting, the distance is much closer. Liu Ziqi said: "I came today, first, to see how Qin Xiucai's injuries are. The county lord also remembered Qin Xiucai, saying that Qin Xiucai was a talent, his speech and demeanor were quite magnanimous, and he would have a bright future in the future. Qin Xiucai is a local student of Nanchang, and the county is still counting on Qin Xiucai to be a blockbuster. My Nanchang County also has the name of a phoenix and a crouching tiger. ”

Qin Feng was a little embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again: "The county lord thinks highly of me, Nanchang County is talented, but that is not a junior brother." Hehe. ”

Liu Ziqi bowed slightly: "Brother Qin doesn't need to be too humble, there are thousands of encounters in life, who can say for sure?" I have come today for one more thing. ”

Only then did Liu Ziqi turn sideways and say to Mrs. Jia: "It's for the Jia family, let's talk about yesterday's case." ”

Mrs. Jia nodded: "There is Master Lao Liu." ”

"Yesterday, I received a report from Jia Song, and the Yamen immediately went to investigate. The shopkeeper of Qi registered Qi Yuanyi in this county, and he pretended to be someone else, and the real Qi Yuanyi farmed at home. His wife and children were leased from a nearby village. The identity of that group of Hu merchants cannot be verified, but the road strips are all real, and this group of people and the shopkeeper disappeared together, and no one can be found. The officials also went to the Xinjian County Ya, and the four gates of Nanchang Mansion had no record of this batch of silk going out of the city. Liu Ziqi looked at Mrs. Jia, showed regret, and said: "So, I can teach Mrs. Jia to know that this loss may be ......."

Mrs. Jia shook her head: "Alas, thank you Master Liu for coming to report. If you can't catch it back, there's no way to do it. ”

Liu Ziqi nodded silently, turned to Qin Feng and asked, "Qin Xiucai, do you have any other opinions on this matter?" ”

Qin Feng shook his head: "Shopkeeper Qi and the others have been planning for a long time, the layout is reasonable, and the escape plan must have been prepared in advance." It's almost impossible to catch them. ”

Liu Ziqi said: "Exactly! It's just that this group of people has been entrenched in Nanchang for nearly 100 days, eating, drinking, and having fun, and their lives are extremely luxurious. Calculate the expenses, I am afraid that the silver consumption is only three or five hundred taels. Why? ”

"They are not for money, their purpose is just to bring down the Jia family. So there is no record of silk going out of the city, because there is no going out of the city at all, where it comes from and where it goes back. Naturally, there is no way to find out where the silk went. The shopkeeper Qi and others scattered and fled lightly, and it was even more difficult to find. ”

Liu Ziqi raised his eyebrows: "Where did you come from, where are you going?" Qin Xiucai refers to the Wu family's secret mastermind? For Miss Jia? ”

"The Jia family does not have any evidence. This is my personal, little conjecture. Brother Liu doesn't have to take it seriously. Qin Feng smiled slightly.

"That morning, Jia Song proposed to go to Fujian to pull stone in the cloth shop, and if it didn't work, the Jia family sold themselves to pay off the debt. Is it also Wu Jin's conspiracy? ”

Qin Feng's face was hot: "It's not, this is the topic of my chat with Jia Song, who knows that he is serious." However, since this matter started by me, I will properly resolve this matter for the Jia family. ”

"Oh?" Liu Ziqi said curiously: "Qin Xiucai, do you plan to pull stone from Fujian?" ”

"Perhaps, it will definitely not work to only pull stones, and you will have to bring other goods, such as a caravan."

"Hahaha! Interesting, good! Then I'll see how Qin Xiucai made a caravan and went to Fujian to do business! ”

......

Liu Ziqi said goodbye and left, and Mrs. Jia got a report on the case that the clues were broken and everything could not be found. A meaningless report is an explanation to the victim.

Mrs. Jia's face was gloomy, without Qin Feng's perfume this time, the Jia family would be played to death by Wu Jin. But what about perfume? If Wu Jin doesn't give up, can the Jia family still resist the Wu family? Is this talent the Jia family's reliance? How long can it be relied on? Mrs. Jia sighed in her heart.

Jia Jingmin didn't come back until it got dark, and she didn't care about resting, so Jia Song called Qin Feng to the inner courtyard hall to discuss matters.

Jia Jingmin and Shu Yi talked, and it went well, everything was as Jia Jingmin planned. Poetry has not yet been spoken. Shu Yi was attracted by the smell of perfume on Jia Jingmin's body. Jia Jingmin naturally began to promote perfumes.

Shu Yi is naturally interested, but the family's business is in charge of her mother. If you want to cooperate in the perfume business, you have to negotiate with Mrs. Shu.

But Mrs. Shu has been in a bad mood recently, and she has no intention of taking care of business. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to make a special appointment with Jia Jingmin to talk about business at this time.

Later, Shu Yi came up with a way, Mrs. Shu went to Qingfeng to watch incense every day, and she happened to be going again the day after tomorrow. Shu Yi can accompany her mother, and then have a chance encounter with Jia Jingmin. The two then started the topic from the perfume smell on Jia Jingmin's body, and extended to cooperation. Of course, the best outcome is that the mother puts herself in charge of the perfume business.

Qin Feng frowned and said, "Mrs. Shu is in a bad mood, this time is really not appropriate. You can start talking when you meet the day after tomorrow, and it is more appropriate to wait for Mrs. Shu to talk about specific cooperation matters. ”

Jia Jingmin shook her head: "Mrs. Shu's mood, I'm afraid it won't get better in a short time." Recently, it has been said that in Jiangxi under the governance of Master Shu, literati are absurd and frolic. Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are the foundation of scholars, but Jiangxi literati, on the chess road, have lost to chess players from Dongying Goryeo one after another, and none of them have won. Governor Shu may be implicated in this matter. ”

Qin Fengqi said: "There is such a thing? It's just playing chess, how did you get involved with the governor of a province? ”

Jia Jingmin replied: "Shu Yi didn't elaborate on the reason, and I don't want to ask." But I also know that the Dongying Goryeo chess players have been playing in Yunshan Qingfeng Temple for more than half a year, and countless scholars and chess players in Dahua have challenged them, but they have all lost. Such a big thing, Qin Xiucai, how come you don't know? ”

Qin Feng sneered and explained: "I have just completed the period of filial piety, and I used to be at home every day, but I didn't hear anything outside the window. ”

Jia Song interjected: "Let me tell you, just because of this, our cloth shop appoints the floor stone!" ”

At that moment, Jia Song told the news he heard everywhere again.
