Chapter 471: Bafang Supermarket
Chapter 471: Bafang Supermarket
The plan of the year lies in the spring, and this is true for agriculture, animal husbandry, and industry and commerce. Today's Huarong Yunshang has become famous, orders are in short supply, a large number of raw materials come in every day, finished products come out, gold and silver roll in, of course, there are countless cumbersome things that increase, and the workload of Sumei Liu Meiren and Bosshan has gradually increased, and they have to go out early and return late, so that they have snubbed their husbands, Li Huaitang has complained about this.
As soon as the sky dawned, in front of the gate of the General's Palace, several carriages were ready, and the heroic female cavalry hugged each other, waiting to leave.
When Su Zizi and the others went out, they met Pei Xiaoniang.
"Where did Sister Ruoxi go so early?"
In contrast, Pei Xiaoniang seems to be idle, the workload of the printing workshop is not large, and the only thing that makes her tired is the teaching materials for the soldiers to learn culture, but it has been completed by her in the past winter. Today she has an appointment to accompany her brother to visit the city and talk about friendship.
The traces of the spring breeze several times overnight were still faintly left between Pei Xiaoniang's eyebrows, and when she met Su Zizi, she seemed to feel a little guilty.
"Sister Zizi is busy, Ruoxi will go to find my brother, and we will go to Huarong Yunshang together to have a look, so that my brother can see more."
It's a pity not to go to Ningyuan City to watch Huarong Yunsheng, ordinary people can't enter the workshop, and with Pei Xiaoniang's light, Pei Qing can have such a blessing.
After a few pleasantries, the beauties parted ways.
As if in response to the proverb that the early bird has worms, the morning business area is not deserted, and the industrious merchants are already looking for business opportunities, especially the caravans that are about to set off to various places, have swept the desirable goods in this huge market, and strive to reach the foreign market as soon as possible, and grab the most nutritious first bowl of soup.
Pei Qing came to Ningyuan City for the first time, and like other first-time merchants, he was surprised or surprised, whether it was the tall city wall or the vibrant commercial market, which completely subverted their understanding of the barbarism of the Western Regions.
Ningyuan City is not as big as Chang'an, and its population is far less than Chang'an, but if you talk about the scale and prosperity of the commercial market, Ningyuan City is beyond reproach as the first in the world.
The goods that are available in Chang'an City can be found in Ningyuan City, and many of Ningyuan City's specialties are cheaper and have more styles than those in Chang'an City. Such as a variety of white cloth, glittering glass cups, mellow grape wine, and all kinds of leather goods, such as boots, gloves, leather belts and so on. Since last year, the goods from Ningyuan City in the east and west cities of Chang'an have been increasing day by day, and they are very popular with the Tang people.
Pei Qing lingered in front of various shops, and was very interested in all kinds of Western Regions specialties.
Seeing this, Pei Xiaoniang said: "If my brother likes it, just take it, and my sister will give it to you." β
"This?" Pei Qing smiled embarrassedly, he naturally knew that his sister was not short of money, but emotionally speaking, it was difficult for him to accept.
Pei Ruoxi's heart was as careful as dust, and she noticed her brother's embarrassment, so she smiled and said: "Brother rest assured, it's the husband's meaning, and he wants the concubine to give you a gift on his behalf, so my brother doesn't have to be polite." Li Lang also said, if you push, you will not give him face. β
"Hehe, my brother-in-law is really, tsk, okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey!" Pei Qing generously accepted his sister's gift.
There are rich people who pay the bill, Pei Qing is naturally not polite, and he scans the goods to his heart's content.
Pei Xiaoniang saw that Pei Qing paid attention to the exquisite jewelry, and suddenly understood how much in her heart.
"Which little lady did my brother fall in love with?" Pei Xiaoniang quipped.
Pei Qing was stunned, as if he had feelings, his mood seemed to be a lot lower, he put down a piece of jewelry in his hand, and said, "What's the use of falling in love?" Can I choose for myself? The marriage of the children of the Pei family has long been doomed. Sometimes, I envy my brother-in-law, who marries everyone he likes. β
"Brother, I'm sorry." Pei Xiaoniang is a person who has come over, and she understands this feeling very well, if it weren't for the fact that she met Li Huaitang by accident, I am afraid that her fate would be even more unbearable.
It takes courage to fight against fate, and the process is undoubtedly painful. Pei Qing has a strong father, who is destined to live in the shadow of his father for the rest of his life, and his original intention in joining the army is to change his weakness through joining the army, and escorting the messenger to Xiao Bolu is a rare opportunity for him.
"Forget it, don't talk about this." Pei Qing put down an ornament in his hand, and his tone was quite distressed and helpless.
"Sister, can you help my brother?" Pei Qing hesitated and changed the subject.
Pei Xiaoniang nodded and said with a smile: "My brother is in difficulty, and my sister is duty-bound." β
"Good. The envoy said that if I solve the food problem in Anxi, I will definitely give me a great job. At that time, my brother and I will achieve great achievements and glorify our ancestors, and my father will also be impressed by me, maybe he will allow me to marry, that, hehe," Pei Qing became more and more excited the more he said.
Pei Xiaoniang asked suspiciously: "Grain?" How can my brother ask my sister to help? β
"It's easy, it's easy, my sister just needs to tell you what the poultry on the farm eat!" Pei Qing looked at his sister nervously, expecting an answer that would make him soar.
Understood what her brother meant, Pei Xiaoniang frowned, the secret was indeed very simple, but she couldn't say that Li Huaitang had already told them the stakes.
"This matter is very important, brother don't mention it, sister can't help you. Li Lang repeatedly warned us that we were not allowed to reveal this secret, to make you know it means that everyone in the world can know it, when the secret is no longer there, even if you come to make you know, it will no longer have any meaning, and it will affect Ningyuan City. β
Pei Qing couldn't help but be disappointed, his sister's attitude was resolute, and it was not good to entangle again.
The brother and sister talked and came to the largest store in the city, Bafang Supermarket.
"Octagon Supermarket? This name is good. Standing in front of Shang Qi's shop, Pei Qing chewed on the meaning of the four lacquered gold characters on the plaque.
Pei Xiaoniang is very proud, from the Bafang store to the Bafang supermarket, there are only two words, but it shows her love for the finishing touch.
Supermarket means a complete range of goods, which means strength. Bafang Supermarket is really not ordinary, just the wide faΓ§ade shows its difference.
Noticing that there were more than the Pei family brothers and sisters in Bafang Supermarket, at the same time, the two Hu people suddenly made trouble in the shop.
It was the Hui people who committed the murder, and Ningyuan City allowed the people to bring knives to protect themselves, which gave the evil people an opportunity to take advantage of it. Without warning, the two guys fell in a pool of blood in front of everyone's eyes, and in the shop, chickens and dogs walked away, panicking.
"Sister, let's go!" Pei Qing drew a knife to protect Pei Xiaoniang.
The two Hui murderers were like madmen, holding up their scimitars and slashing when they met people, and Pei Xiaoniang, who was noble and delicate and had no ability to resist, became their target.
