Chapter 159: Entering a New Industry
After such a few days, Mr. Song can be regarded as having thought about it, so he sent this letter to Chen Siye.
Seeing the letter, Chen Siye was also overjoyed, the plan to open a teahouse can finally be put on the agenda, and it can be regarded as entering a new industry, although he belongs to the type of small wealth and peace, and now there is no shortage of silver flowers, but he is mainly doing this because of interest, and it is really good to see that Mr. Song is telling stories, and it can make people in the capital listen to the story of Xianjian without spending a lot of money, so he plans to build a teahouse.
After reading the letter, Chen Siye looked up at the little maid with a smile, "Very good, I'm just waiting for this letter, what's your name?" ”
The little maid replied in a bit of a panic: "Slave maid... Slave little bell. ”
"Little Bell, is she? I remember, thank you little bell for coming to send me the letter. Chen Siye looked at Xiao Ling'er with a warm smile and thanked her.
Xiao Ling'er's face turned red, and she waved her hand again and again: "Chen Gongzi doesn't have to.. Don't thank me, slave first.. Retired first. Thanks to him, Xiao Ling'er couldn't say anything, turned around and ran out in the rain.
Chen Siye couldn't help but think narcissistically: No way, the charm is too great, just say thank you and let the little girl run away.
In the letter, Mr. Song said that he promised to be the shopkeeper of the teahouse, and it happened that the shopkeeper who sold the teahouse had not yet made a move, and if Chen Siye had not changed his mind, he would go to the teahouse to talk to him, and the address was attached at the end of the letter.
It just so happened that Chen Siye had nothing else to do, so he shouted immediately: "Xiangling! Come out and go out with me! ”
After killing Liu Xuan, Qiu Ju reported the incident and the cause and effect to Le Xuan, but Le Xuan didn't say anything, just told him not to cause trouble again.
Later, because of his fame in the capital in the past two days, some people even waited outside the mansion to ask him for a book.
After Le Xuan learned about it, she specially asked Xiao Tao to come over to pass the word, telling him to travel in a carriage in the future, not alone, and at least bring a maid to follow him, so as not to cause any more trouble.
Although it was to keep him from causing trouble, Chen Siye was still very happy when he found out, and his treatment has improved a lot.
"Hey!" Xiangling and Miaozhu heard the sound, and Xiangling said with a curious face: "Childe, why do you want to go out when it's raining today?" Where are you going? ”
Chen Siye said triumphantly: "Son, I am going to buy a teahouse to be a big shopkeeper, today I will take a look at this teahouse, and by the way, I will take a tour of the capital in the rain." ”
Miaozhu on the side begged when she heard this: "Childe, let me go too, I don't want to stay alone in Tingzhuyuan." ”
Chen Siye said curiously: "Why are you alone, isn't Jingqing also there." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard Jing Qing's complaining voice behind me, "Brother-in-law, aren't you going to take me there?" ”
Chen Siye was stunned and smiled, but he didn't know when Jing Qing arrived behind him, so he could only say: "Okay, go and go, Miaozhu, you go and prepare the carriage first, I'll pack up and set off." ”
The three of them were a little excited when they heard this, Miaozhu held up an oil-paper umbrella, and hurried to prepare the carriage, while Chen Siye went back to the house and took out his silver box.
Of course, you don't need so much silver to buy a teahouse, but there are several silver tickets in this silver box, and there is no subdivision before, so just take the car and subdivide it again, and then give people a silver number
Silver tickets can also save people some trouble.
After that, they brought some other things, and the three of them were ready to go.
Chen Siye walked in front of him with a silver box in his arms, and Xiangling followed behind to hold an umbrella for him, full of style, but Jingqing didn't have this treatment, so he could only hold an umbrella by himself.
Along the way, he met a lot of maids and maids, all of them took the initiative to greet him very politely, and Chen Siye also smiled back, which made him sigh that fame brought benefits, except for the maids who came with Jiang Xia to greet him, no one else took him seriously, but now it is different.
Miaozhu had already prepared a carriage and waited at the door, without stopping, Chen Siye and Jingqing got into the carriage directly, waiting for Xiangling and Miaozhu to get on the car.
However, the two did not get into the car, but the car moved, Chen Siye hurriedly called the coachman, lifted the curtain on one side and saw that Xiangling and Miaozhu planned to walk behind the carriage.
Chen Siye couldn't help but wonder: "What are you two doing?" Get in the car. Jing Qing also echoed: "Sisters, get in the car, there is still a lot of space." ”
The two women waved their hands again and again, and Xiangling said, "Son, don't care about us, let's follow the car." ”
Chen Siye didn't follow: "If you don't sit in a car, isn't it stupid, even if you hold an umbrella, you will definitely get your clothes wet, what if you get caught in the cold, get in the car quickly!" ”
The second daughter showed a hint of emotion when she heard this, Miaozhu glanced at Xiangling and said, "We are just maidservants, how can we ride in the same car with our son?" ”
Chen Siye said in his heart that Xiao Tao didn't mind, when he thought of Xiao Tao, he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, he rarely saw Xiao Tao these days, even if he came to talk to him, he came and went in a hurry, and he couldn't even find the opportunity for Qingqing and me, and he didn't know what Xiao Tao was busy with.
Thinking like this, Chen Siye got out of the car, and dragged the two little maids into the car, before saying, "Since you are following me now, you have to listen to me." ”
The two little maids blushed, and they were very moved in their hearts, so they could only say, "Thank you, son." ”
Chen Siye nodded with satisfaction, then stretched out his head and told the coachman the destination, the coachman thought for a while, and then drove the carriage to squeak and squeak.
Seeing that the two little maids looked a little cramped, Chen Siye couldn't help but laugh in his heart, opened the silver box and said, "It's just fine, you come and help me subdivide these silver tickets according to different silver numbers." ”
Saying that, dividing the silver tickets into four piles and giving each of the three of them a stack, Xiangling held a thick stack of silver tickets in her hand and said dumbly: "There are a lot of silver tickets..."
Seeing that they were distracted, Chen Siye smiled and said, "This is all my belongings, son, what's the matter, it's not that you haven't seen it, why are you so surprised?" ”
Miaozhu said with a hint of envy: "Seeing it is seen, but it is completely different from holding it in your hand." ”
"Is it different? I think it's just paper. Jing Qing said in confusion on the side.
This kid doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and he doesn't need to buy anything by himself, so he naturally has no concept of money.
Chen Siye smiled: "You'll naturally know later, okay, hurry up and help me get a point." ”
As he spoke, he classified the silver tickets in his hand according to the silver number, and the other three began to work hard.
In fact, Chen Siye wondered why there was no unified silver ticket regulation in Daji, and no official agency issued silver tickets, like these silver tickets were printed by the major silver numbers separately, and the denomination regulations were different, no
Not to mention the exchange in other houses, it is to exchange the silver number for the issuance of silver tickets, and a certain fee is also charged.
Before I went to Yongning Mansion, I also encountered the fact that the store only accepts cash and does not accept cash tickets. In this way, this kind of silver ticket has no other benefits at all, except for being more convenient to carry.
He also talked to Le Xuan about this, and at that time Le Xuan said that this matter could not be changed overnight, so there was no follow-up, and I don't know if she was interested or not.
There are a total of four silver numbers for these silver tickets, and after several people subdivide them according to the denomination and silver number, Chen Siye took them back into the silver box before exhaling and saying: "It's done, today I have a treat, eat a big meal, and treat you well." ”
The largest of these silver tickets is five hundred taels, and the smallest is only ten taels, which is very messy, a total of nearly 20,000 taels, and it is not a small project to divide these silver tickets, so Chen Siye is ready to wait until he is done and take them to eat some good food.
Jing Qing cheered when she heard this, and the two little maids were also happy, and they sincerely felt that Chen Siye was too good to them. In fact, it's just because Chen Siye, who is from modern times, is not sensitive to this kind of class consciousness, as long as it looks pleasing to the eye, he can be friends.
At this time, the carriage had already left the inner city, Chen Siye lifted the curtains and looked out, it was raining lightly, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and the scenery in the distance was covered in smoke and rain, which was very interesting.
Along the way, Chen Siye looked out the window with great interest, and the scenery in the car was completely different from walking to see the scenery, which made him a little happy and couldn't help but be distracted.
I don't know how long it took, but I heard the coachman say, "Childe, it's here." ”
Chen Siye came back to his senses at this time, and turned his head in response, only to see that Xiangling had already gotten out of the car first, and Miaozhu also got up and lifted the curtain, and when Chen Siye got up, Miaozhu also intimately blocked his head with her hand, so as not to touch his head.
Xiangling held an umbrella and waited under the car, as soon as Chen Siye came out, she stood on tiptoe and held the umbrella above his head, Chen Siye took a look, there was a stepping stool under the car, and he never used this thing when he jumped up and down directly.
Enjoying this treatment for the first time, Chen Siye was really a little unaccustomed to it, but when he thought about it, he wanted to be a man of the rich generation, of course, he had to get used to it, so he was relieved.
When Jingqing and Miaozhu got out of the car, Chen Siye took care to observe the surroundings, only to see that this place was really secluded, it was at the end of an alley, saying that it was an alley, but in fact, the buildings around here were very scarce.
The majestic city walls can be seen not far away, no wonder Mr. Song said that this place is remote, and the city is generally not very lively.
Not far in front of everyone is the destination of this trip, a three-story small teahouse.
This teahouse is not big, it does not occupy a wide area, it faces south, there are no other buildings around, it is open on all sides, there is a pole high on the ground paved with bluestone slabs in front of the door, a banner is hung on it, and the word tea is written, if it is sunny weather, it will definitely flutter in the wind, but at this time it is wet by the rain, and it can no longer float.
Looking behind the teahouse, you can see a few weeping willows that have been dyed green, as well as a narrow river, and the sound of gurgling water can be faintly heard.
I looked at the door of the teahouse again, and saw the plaque hanging high, with the words "Mingxiang Teahouse" written on it, and the door was open, but there was no one inside.
Chen Siye walked forward, Xiangling held an umbrella for him behind to cover the rain, followed by Jingqing and Miaozhu, and the four of them walked into this Mingxiang teahouse without pausing.
