Chapter 205: Parting Ways
In any case, the first task now is to reach Miao Jiang, then untie the Gu on Li Sui's body, and then go to Rongguo, you must ask clearly, and if you can't ask, you will beat him again.
Ye Jinyu is a boring journey here, Qingdai is busy and crazy, since Ye Jinyu issued an order to cooperate with Ganzhou City, she is busy with her feet not touching the ground, the cloth village and the garment store that were originally planned, can only open the cloth village first, and sent a henchman to Ganzhou City to negotiate, 10 million taels of silver is not a decimal number, so you have to plan well, if you don't open the cloth village, it must be easy to pull out, now it may be a little troublesome, first send Jiang Yi a million taels of silver to Jiang Yi under the exchange of officers and soldiers. Here to revise the expansion plan of the Treasure Pavilion, get 10 million taels as soon as possible, and the first investment into Ganzhou City, should be able to see results soon, and then is the time to really start and spend money.
Thinking like this, Qing Dai and the Li family discussed again, and decided to sell a batch of top jewelry that was ready to be sold on June 6 first, in order to solve the urgent need, and the capital to acquire the Golden Jade Pavilion has not yet returned, although it was purchased at a low price, but it is also a large number of gold and silver utensils, and now it can only be a little higher price, and it is exported to other places, and the profit has declined, but it is also a large amount of income.
After Qingdai was busy, she finally had some eyebrows, thinking that Ye Jinyu asked her to quickly pick some talents and cultivate them into her own son, and now that she is finally free, she can go and have a look.
Qing Dai called the groom and went to the suburban courtyard, which was originally the idle courtyard of the Sui Palace, Ye Jinyu saw that some of the employees of the Treasure Pavilion were homeless, so he wanted to come and make it their home, and now Qing Dai is used to train the next class of henchmen.
"How is Elder Li doing?" Qing Dai got off the carriage, and Li Lao often came over to pick out some good qualifications and teach some skills to identify gold, silver and jewelry.
"Elder Li has been in good spirits recently, and he came here for two hours yesterday, and he said a lot of things, and everyone benefited a lot." The steward of the courtyard was also a down-and-out middle-aged businessman who Qing Dai took a fancy to at the beginning, Xu Hua.
"There is a labor manager in this courtyard." Qingdai has a lot of respect for Xu Hua, Xu Hua is upright, he has always been warm-hearted and kind-hearted, even if he is down, he has his own bearing.
"What did Miss Qingdai say, everyone is in the backyard, do you want to take a look?"
"Okay, I haven't come to see you in a few days, let's go straight to the backyard."
"Miss Qingdai, please."
"Please."
The two came to the backyard, the master was teaching, and the people selected by Qingdai did not require good qualifications or talents, but only looked at character and brain.
Qing Dai did not bother the master, first went to the study with Steward Xu to discuss the affairs of the other courtyard, Ye Jinyu had instructed before leaving, business and war are very similar, talk about strategy, morality, and fight for his soldiers.
"Steward Xu, you've been in the courtyard for some time, do you have any comments on this courtyard? Or did you find some problems? "Qing Dai doesn't come to the other courtyard often, and the other courtyard has not been established for a long time, since Ye Jinyu left, it was first built, and this Xu Hua Xu was the income of Qing Dai at that time.
"This annex, not long after it was built, there are naturally problems, since Miss Qingdai asked, I will say it directly."
"Xu is in charge, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Qingdai listens to it."
"There are some aspiring young people in the courtyard, but there are some deficiencies, the place where they live determines the knowledge, of course, these can be achieved by the efforts of the day after tomorrow, but the country is easy to change its nature and difficult to change, and many times it is difficult for people to restrain their own nature." Steward Xu was already very tactful, but Qing Dai still heard the meaning of the words, because these people are all fourteen or fifteen years old, their families are poor, and they have never done anything to steal chickens and dogs.
"I'll consider these, do you have any other opinions?"
"There are some others, there are a lot of people in this courtyard, the yard is not small, but more than 30 people live together, one is difficult to manage, and the other is that there are talents who cannot be effectively trained, it is better to streamline them, pick out some talents for training, and the rest are not suitable to be buddies or something, and if they are not good, they will give some money and send them home." On the contrary, Steward Xu's years of experience in shopping malls have made him better understand what kind of kindness is beneficial to others and himself.
"Everyone listens to Xu Guanshi, Xu Guan just has to let it go."
"Okay, thank you Miss Qingdai for your understanding, there is one more thing, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
"Just say it straight."
"It's not a big deal, it's just that we built this courtyard for a while, but now we don't even have a name, I think about whether to hang a plaque, it's a bit famous."
"What Steward Xu said is very true, the princess seems to have mentioned it once before, I was too busy to faint, and I ignored it for a while, I will send someone to do it when I go back, what does Steward Xu think should be called?"
"If you let me say it, it's better to call it Jingyuan Courtyard, quiet and far-reaching."
"Steward Xu is good at writing, so he will call Jingyuan Courtyard, and I will send someone to engrave a plaque when I go back, and then send it."
"Okay."
While talking, the master in the backyard had already left, a kind of fourteen or fifteen teenager was packing up his things, Qing Dai and Steward Xu were standing in a hidden yard in the backyard and watching, a few boys were playing and making trouble, and some were quietly sorting out the knowledge taught by the master.
Two boys attracted Qing Dai's attention, one was the most fierce in the fight, and the other was quietly packing up the schoolbag, the two were obviously completely different personalities, but Qing Dai saw the two almost the same eyes, of course, and similar appearances.
"Steward Xu, who are those two children?"
"Oh, these are two brothers, one is happy and quiet, the other is happy, but they are smart, one is called Yuan Cang, and the other is called Yuan Qiong, but they can be cultivated in a key way."
"What are these two children? It's not like an ordinary child. ”
"I don't know much about this, I picked it up from the side of the road, and I still have one breath left after being beaten, so I thought it was pitiful, so I picked it up, healed my injuries, and sent it here." new world
"I didn't pay attention to it before, but I just came here recently?"
"Well, I've only been here for more than half a month, and I've been recuperating at my house before."
"Okay, tell them to come over and I'll take a look." Qing Dai thought that it was indeed her busiest time recently, so she didn't care.
"It's a blessing for Miss Qingdai to be able to add blue eyes to the two of them, so I'll call them over." Steward Xu used to call the two brothers of the original Cangyuan Qiong, Qing Dai was thoughtful, these brothers were obviously not ordinary people, Steward Xu was vague in his words, Qing Dai felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't turn a corner for a while.
"Yuan Cang/Yuan Qiong has seen Miss Qingdai."
"You're brothers?"
The two brothers have similar facial features, but their temperaments are diametrically opposed, the elder brother Yuan Cang is gentle and elegant, and the younger brother is ruffian, fifteen or sixteen years old, which should be the age of ignorance of the world, but the eyes of the two give Qing Dai an innumerable feeling.
"Yes, Sister Qingdai, you are so beautiful." Yuan Qiong's face was not serious, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his smile was bright.
"No matter how beautiful Sister Qingdai is, she is not as beautiful as Brother Yuanqiong." Qingdai has eaten for more than 20 years, which is more than enough to cope with a teenage child.
Yuan Qiong lowered his head and smiled, and stopped talking, Yuan Cang kept standing in place, and his standard smile never changed by half a point.
"Okay, in the future, you will follow Steward Xu and learn from the good students, and strive to come to the Treasure Pavilion as soon as possible to help my sister pick the beam."
"For the sake of a beautiful sister, Yuan Qiong will also study hard."
Let the two brothers leave first, Qingdai looked at a few more children, all of them are teenagers, in addition to the Yuan brothers, there are three people who are good, one man and two women, all of them are top-notch, and their martial arts are not weak, and they are worthy of a big responsibility.
Qing Dai finished reading it with satisfaction, and Xu Steward established ten people to focus on training, and selected another ten people, according to the current teaching methods to continue training, the remaining three were dismissed, and ten more people were trained, ready to be a buddy or something, if there is really potential in the future, it is not too late to be promoted.
Ye Jinyu and Li Sui arrived at the boundary of Yin State, disguised themselves as a pair of heroes in the rivers and lakes, and Qingcheng and others also took on another identity, planning to reunite at the junction of Yin State and Miao Jiang.
Li Sui and Ye Jinyu were dressed in white, riding white horses, galloping through the forest.
"Husband, I don't understand, obviously there is no danger in Yin Kingdom, why do we have to disguise ourselves?"
"Because it's faster and not noticeable, although there is no danger, it is inevitable that people will think about it when it is discovered that the former general of Yin State and the general of Mao State appeared in Yin State at the same time."
"So that's the case, it's only a five- or six-day trip in the territory of Yin State, let's go quickly."
"Don't worry, this is the border of Yin State, and I still have something to do."
"What's the matter?"
"At the beginning, Yin Guo and Mao Guo were originally a family, do you know?"
"Of course, I also know that three hundred years ago, the four central countries were one family, Miaojiang, the Western Regions, and Rongdi were tribes, which belonged to the central Great Qin Dynasty, and the world was unified at that time, but unfortunately the later emperors of the Great Qin Dynasty were mediocre and incompetent, and the princes rose up and divided the land, forming four major dynasties, and the three Fan tribes were also their own kings, forming a situation where the seven kingdoms stood side by side today."
"Yes, the founding monarchs of the original Yin State and the Mao State were good brothers, and the two also wanted to swallow the other two countries by merging together, and even the military supplies were ready, but unfortunately Rong Guo and Qi Guo were not easy to fool, and the two of them didn't know why, their brotherhood broke down, they parted ways, and each became the king."
"I've also heard of this, the founding emperor of Yin is Qin Jingxin, and the founding emperor of Mao is Li Yunyin, the brotherhood of the two countries can be seen from the name of the country, but it doesn't make sense."
"Oh? What did the lady think? ”
"If it's really a brotherhood breakdown, then why do the two use each other's names? This doesn't make sense. ”
"The lady is right, I originally thought about this, and even the affection that can be shared by the throne, what else can it be broken for? There are rumors in the outside world that it is because of the uneven distribution of spoils, and I think it is simply ridiculous and generous, so I just want to understand these things. ”
"What do you mean?"
"First of all, the founding emperors of the two countries once cooperated, and everything was ready to go to war and dominate the world, so why did they give up in a hurry? What is the reason for the breakdown of good affection? And most importantly, where did the prepared batch of quartermasters go? That's the treasure of the rich country, where is it? ”
"It's tempting, and there is no description of where this treasure goes in the records of various countries, why, do you want to find it? Is it right here? ”
"If I knew where it was, I would be sitting on the throne now, I came here this time because I happened to pass by, and secondly, I have heard that there is a small branch of Qin Jingxin and Li Yunyin's guards left over from that period living here, maybe I can know some clues."
"Why do you know? Don't others know? ”
