Song Xinshu said to those strong men: "Everyone has worked hard early in the morning, you go to the front store to get some snacks, and it is all considered breakfast." ”

After thanking those people, they left, Su Xueqing was still immersed in the shock and couldn't extricate herself, and said in disbelief: "Do you have to be like this when choosing a dart game?" ”

"No, I just want Madame to pick and choose." Ning Zhi said respectfully.

Song Xinshu didn't expect such a big battle, but the first batch of dart masters on the field looked very powerful, so he asked: "I think the town's west dart game is very good, what are the qualifications?" ”

"Madame has a good eye, the strength of these dart bureaus is comparable, but there are more dart masters in the Zhenxi Dart Bureau, and they are also willing to take some orders that are far away."

"Then I'm going to visit the shopkeeper of this dart game another day." Her trip was extraordinary, and she still had to discuss it carefully with the shopkeeper.

Su Xueqing couldn't recover from the shock all morning, she only felt that these people in the dart game were savage and tough, and when Song Xinshu said that she was going to visit the shopkeeper of the dart game, she would also follow to see the world.

In fact, Song Xinshu has never dealt with the dart game, and he is also a little apprehensive, worried that there will be some so-called rules on the road.

When Ning Zhi heard Song Xinshu's worries, he laughed and said: "The Zhenxi Dart Bureau is one of the most famous dart games in Jinling City, I used to have some dealings with them, I went with my wife, and there will be no problems." ”

Su Xueqing asked everyone to pack some pastries from the store, and the three of them went to the dart bureau to discuss matters together.

As soon as he entered the door, Song Xinshu felt that the atmosphere inside was very solemn, everyone was doing their own work, and no one took the initiative to talk to them.

Ning Zhi came to a corner of the hall with a familiar car, and there was a man who seemed to be a bookkeeper sitting at the table, holding a pen and not knowing what to write.

"Accounts, we're looking for the shopkeeper."

The bookkeeper pointed in the direction of the backyard, and Ning Zhi motioned for them to follow him with his eyes, and only after bypassing the two people carrying the big boxes did they come to the backyard.

I saw a middle-aged man in a practice uniform waving a long whip in the middle of the courtyard, and they didn't want to come forward to disturb him, so they stood aside and waited for him to finish a set of exercises.

Ning Zhi whispered to them: "This is the shopkeeper Wu, in the early years, he relied on his fists to open up a world in Jinling City, and then he took the money to open a dart game, and slowly achieved the current scale." ”

Song Xinshu also heard that in the early years, Jinling City was not as happy as it is now, and several schools were in conflict day by day, and later they gradually got on the right track under the governance of Taishou.

After the shopkeeper Wu finished practicing a set of long whips, he saw the three people waiting on the side, and Ning Zhi stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper Wu, I'm here again, and I also brought the shopkeeper of the Taste Pavilion." ”

Ning Zhi then introduced: "This is Song Xinhu, the shopkeeper of the Taste Pavilion, and the other is Miss Xueqing. ”

Shopkeeper Wu bowed to Song Xinshu and said, "Shopkeeper Song, I have admired my name for a long time!" ”

"Don't dare to be, I came here today to visit you."

Su Xueqing handed over the prepared pastries and said, "Shopkeeper Wu, these are the characteristics of the Taste Pavilion, you can taste them." ”

"I'll tell you the truth, my youngest daughter likes to eat your Taste Pavilion pastries the most, usually I'm afraid that she will eat too much and eat bad teeth, now she will be happy!"

Shopkeeper Wu called someone to take the pastries and invited them to sit down on the bamboo chairs in the courtyard, Song Xinshu felt that this shopkeeper Wu was very approachable, and it seemed that it would not be particularly difficult to negotiate business with him.

After the four of them sat down on the bamboo chair, Shopkeeper Wu ordered some tea again, Song Xinshu thought for a while and said, "Ning Zhi, you take out the map and show it to Shopkeeper Wu, and we can discuss the route." ”

Ning Zhi took out the map from his arms and unfolded it on the table, who knew that the shopkeeper Wu's face changed when he saw it, and he said to Song Xinshu in surprise: "The place you are going to is the front line?" ”

Song Xinshu didn't know why Shopkeeper Wu's reaction was so big, nodded and said, "Yes, I want to transport a batch of grain and grass to the front line, and I will leave after January." ”

Shopkeeper Wu waved his hand again and again and said, "I can't do this business, you better please go back." ”

Song Xinshu was very surprised, looking at Ning Zhi, he also looked puzzled, but she felt that there was still room for negotiation, so she continued: "Shopkeeper Wu, I know that this trip is very dangerous, if it is because of the price, we can talk about it again." ”

Shopkeeper Wu shook his head and said: "This is not a matter of price, the imperial court is now collecting grain and grass, we are blatantly transporting grain and grass to the front line, if the imperial court knows, our business will not be done, I still have so many brothers here who need to support their families, and please ask Shopkeeper Song to understand." ”

"If all the grain and grass collected by the imperial court can really reach the hands of the soldiers, I don't have to make a special trip like this, after layers of exploitation, no one knows how much can reach the front line."

Song Xinshu can understand the difficulties of the shopkeeper Wu, but she still wants to give it a try.

"Shopkeeper Song, if this had been placed ten years ago, I would definitely have helped you run a trip." Shopkeeper Wu said earnestly. "But now that I have a family, it's no longer time to take risks, and if you still want to give it a try, I can recommend you a few dart games."

The tone of the shopkeeper Wu was also very sincere, and Song Xinshu couldn't continue to say anything, so he left the Zhenxi Dart Bureau.

Su Xueqing looked at Song Xinshu's sullen appearance and said, "Xinshu, should we try other dart games?" ”

Ning Zhi said very apologetically: "Madam, it's all my fault, I should have explained these situations to Shopkeeper Wu in advance, and now I will cause you to run away in vain." ”

Song Xinshu adjusted his mentality and said: "It's not your fault that I shouldn't have thought of this situation, let's try other dart games again, maybe someone is willing to take this business." ”

The three of them looked for the list of dart bureaus given by Boss Wu one by one, but these dart bureaus heard that the Zhenxi dart bureau did not dare to accept this business, and they also said that they would not accept it.

Song Xinshu hit the wall one after another, and the blood in her heart gradually cooled down, did she think things too simply?

Seeing Song Xinshu's sullen appearance, Su Xueqing took her hand and said, "Xinshu, you see that there is a seller of silk flowers in front of you, let's go and have a look!" ”

Song Xinshu let her pull herself, came to the stall selling silk flowers, only to see all kinds of silk flowers on the haystack, Su Xueqing took a cyan flower and inserted it in Song Xinshu's hair, and said with satisfaction: "Xinshu, this color is especially suitable for you, what color do you think I wear looks good?" ”

Song Xinshu knew that she was deliberately pleasing her, so he took a red flower and inserted it in her hair and said, "I think this color is very suitable for you." ”

Su Xueqing likes red the most, she shook her head mischievously, and said to Ning Zhi: "Ning Zhi, do you think I look good wearing this color?" ”

Ning Zhi didn't expect her to ask herself a question, and she stumbled when she spoke for a while: "Okay... Pretty. ”

His humble appearance amused the two girls, Su Xueqing saw that Song Xinshu's mood improved a lot, so she took her arm and said, "The dart game in Jinling City is not good, let's think of other ways, and then I will go to the next town with you to take a look." ”

Song Xinshu didn't have a good way for a while, so she could only agree, but she still belonged to the Zhenxi Dart Bureau in her heart, after all, it was an old dart bureau in Jinling City, and her reputation was guaranteed.

How can I get the shopkeeper Wu to agree to his request, this matter is not trivial, and we must show enough sincerity.

After making up her mind, she had confidence in her heart, Su Xueqing saw her mood change, and asked curiously: "Xin Shu, do you have an idea again, I don't see your brows frowning." ”

Song Xinshu smiled slightly and said, "I can't say anything yet, but I still have to give it a try." ”

Early the next morning, Song Xinshu packed some pastries from the Taste Pavilion, went to Linglong Pavilion to pick up some rare silk and satin, and then took a fashionable little girl's clothes, and walked towards the Zhenxi Dart Bureau with these things.

She came early, and before the dart game opened, he stood at the corner door in the backyard with his things and waited.

It was not until the early cries of the street began that the corner door slowly opened, and a young woman came out with a little girl in tow.

Song Xinshu greeted him and said: "You are Mrs. Wu, this is the little daughter that Shopkeeper Wu often mentions, it's really cute!" ”

When Mrs. Wu saw her suddenly appear, she was a little surprised and said, "Are you ......?" ”

"I'm Song Xinshu of the shopkeeper of the Taste Pavilion."

As soon as Song Xinshu's words fell, Mrs. Wu was already clear and said, "I know you, the master told me yesterday, I'm afraid that we really can't help with the matter of Shopkeeper Song." ”

Mrs. Wu said very modestly, pulling the little girl to enter the door, Song Xinshu hurriedly stopped them and said: "I came to disturb yesterday, I'm very embarrassed, I was very happy when I heard Master Wu talk about you, and said that the little daughter likes the pastries of the Taste Pavilion, I will bring some today, and I hope Mrs. Wu will not dislike it." ”

Mrs. Wu wanted to enter the door, but seeing that Song Xinshu was very sincere, it was not easy to refuse directly.

Song Xinshu saw that Mrs. Wu stopped, and quickly took out a piece of osmanthus cake from the box and put it in the little girl's hand and said, "I heard your father say that you like to eat this the most, this is a new one made this morning, can you taste it?" ”

The little girl saw that the pastry could no longer be controlled, so she couldn't help but take the pastry, put it under her nose and sniffed it with satisfaction, and said, "It's so fragrant, my mother will eat it too." ”

The little girl held the pastry high above her head, and Mrs. Wu touched her head lovingly and said, "Mother doesn't eat it, you can eat it." ”

"This kid is very well-behaved and cute." Song Xinshu said with a smile.

"Thank you sister for not yet."

The little girl said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, sister!" ”

Song Xinshu saw that Mrs. Wu no longer blindly rejected herself, so she took out the prepared satin clothes and said: "This is some silk in my store, and Mrs. will use it to make clothes, I think it is very suitable for your temperament." ”

When Mrs. Wu saw those silks, she was surprised and said, "This looks like the craftsmanship of the Linglong Pavilion, could it be that the Linglong Pavilion is also your shop?" ”

Song Xinshu said embarrassedly: "Yes, Linglong Pavilion is also in my name." ”

Mrs. Wu was quite surprised and said: "Shopkeeper Song, you are really unseemly, I didn't expect you to do such a big business at such a young age." ”
