Chapter 35: The Flower House

The next day, Qian went to Zhengnanfang to look for a shop.

This shop used to be a tailor, and although the location is average, it is a time-honored store in Zhengnanfang. The previous boss has been running this shop for most of his life, and he is more precious than his daughter. If it weren't for the fact that he was old and ready to return to his hometown to retire, he would definitely not change hands.

Qian Jin has also been here several times before. The boss saw that he sincerely wanted to buy this shop, so he half sold it and gave him a hundred taels of silver.

After the relevant delivery documents were completed, Qian Jin spent dozens of taels of silver to repair the entire shop. The main change was the addition of a small compartment with two one-foot-square mirrors hanging on the walls.

Qian Jin made up his mind to only sell women's clothes. Men's clothing is only a few styles anyway, and women's clothing is ever-changing. This cubicle is used for women to measure their bodies and try on clothes.

Five days later, everything was cleaned up. Qian Jin took the hand of the silkworm girl and stood outside the store to observe, and his heart was beautiful.

"Sister Hua, everything is ready, and I still owe a loud store name." Qian Jin said with a smile.

"The lord is full of poetry and books, and the name of a store is not yet handy?" The silkworm girl covered her mouth and smiled.

Qian Jin pretended to think deeply for a while, and said with a smile: "Actually, I have already thought of the name of the store, so it will be called 'Huajianfang'." ”

"Flower ...... Space...... Fang ......, why do you want to bring the word 'flower'? Silkworm Niang asked.

Qian Jin scratched the nose of the silkworm girl and said with a smile: "Because ...... This shop is for Sister Hua, if you don't have the surname 'Hua', do you still have my surname 'Qian'? ”

"Master, this is not going to work...... It's too precious. Silkworm Niang hurriedly waved her hand and said.

"Sister Hua has said that it is my person. What's yours is mine, what's the difference? ”

"Master, it's embarrassing to say these people in broad daylight......" Silkworm Niang said, and ran back to the store without looking back.

Looking at the panicked back of the silkworm girl, Qian Jin smiled knowingly, and was about to walk back to the store with his feet up, but he caught a glimpse of a small yellow door not far away waiting in the distance.

Qian Jin beckoned to him.

The little yellow man came to Qian Jin at a trot, and when he got closer, it turned out to be Father-in-law Su who was on an errand under Cai Qian.

Qian Shi said...... Let the slave family find a meal. Father-in-law Su took a breath and said.

"What urgent business does my father-in-law have?"

"Gonggong Cai asked me to tell you that Dai Xiaoru went to His Majesty to sue the royal complaint. Left and right are also some small things, and His Majesty said to let you play for another three months. ”

Qian Jin pondered for a while, but he didn't take this matter too seriously, and it happened to be another three months.

"Grandpa Cai has a heart, you just say that I already know, and I will be grateful in the future." Qian Jin smiled and patted Father-in-law Su on the shoulder, and stuffed a money bag in his hand.

Father-in-law Su took it quietly, thanked him and went back to the palace to resume his life.

Looking at the back of Father-in-law Su's trot, Qian Jin felt a little sore. Just now he sent out a hundred taels of silver. I just had a little silver in my hand, and I had already spent four or five hundred taels one after another during this time.

Of course, the father-in-law in this palace must be counted, and each father-in-law has his own price. This father-in-law Su didn't receive the reward money when he went to the courtyard last time to announce the decree, and it is estimated that twenty taels of silver is too little.

Money is always not enough, and we have to hurry up to make money.

…………

Three days later, the Blossom House opened.

The neighbors on the side of the street, as well as some nearby shops, came to congratulate them, and by the way, they also saw the strength and background of this shop. In the capital, if there is no backstage, this shop will not be open for a long time.

At this moment, Qian Jin was standing on a ladder and hanging a plaque draped in red silk above the door of the store. In the center of the plaque is the three large characters of Qian Jin's handwritten book, and the lower right corner is stamped with Qian Jin's private seal.

"Brother Jin, help me see if it's correct." Qian Jin shouted.

Jin Taiming looked left and right at the door of the station, and said in a continuous voice: "It's right." ”

Qian Jin climbed down the ladder, clapped his hands and said, "Wait for the ribbon cut, we will officially open." ”

This tailoring workshop was prepared by Qian Jin to give to the silkworm girl. At first, he planned to keep a low profile, for fear that those strange costumes would cause trouble for the silkworm girl. Later, when I thought about it, there was a stranger who would never appear as a shield anyway, and if someone asked about the origin of the style of the clothes sold in the future, he would say that it was designed by the stranger.

"Little Lizi, Xiangxiang, you two will straighten the red silk a little when the ribbon is cut, and the big red flower will be placed in front of your sister Hua." Qian Jin commanded.

Li Liang and Li Xiang nodded solemnly when they heard this.

"Brother Jin, prepare to light firecrackers." Qian Jin shouted at Jin Taiming again.

"Good Lat, wrap it around me." Jin Taiming took a stick of incense and walked to the firecracker.

At this time, not far away, an obese man in black led more than a dozen people over. The big man in black shouted from afar: "Wait! ”

Jin Taiming was so frightened by this roar that his hands trembled, and the incense in his hand shook and just lit the firecracker, and a crackling firecracker sounded at the door of the store.

The silkworm girl also heard the roar, so she looked at Qian Jin with some hesitation, and the latter gave her an encouraging look. So the silkworm girl cut the colored silk, presented the big red flower on a plate and put it in the back room, ready to hang it in the store.

The man in black saw that the newly opened store did not obey the call, and his face was a little ugly. As soon as he waved his hand, more than a dozen bastards in various colors surrounded the flower shop.

"Who is the owner of this shop, get out of here!" The big man in black roared.

Qian Jin saw that the person who spoke was full of flesh, with two thick beards on his face, and he didn't look like a good stubble, so he gestured to the silkworm girl behind his back. The latter quietly entered the house and fetched a knife and a musket in case of emergency.

"This old brother, the shop is newly opened, if you offend, please bear with me." Although Qian Jin disdains this black-clothed man, he doesn't want to cause trouble for the silkworm girl, so he can get by with these people.

"Who calls you brothers? You didn't inquire, you didn't worship the pier of my sixth son, you still want to open a shop on this street? "The sixth son of the king is very dark, and his face is full of thick beards. Looking at the expressions of the neighbors around him, he must be extremely jealous.

"I have never heard of it." Qian Jin said indifferently.

"You ......," the sixth son of the king saw that Qian Jin would not eat him, so he threatened: "Look at your face is very raw, you must have just come to the capital, right?" Let me tell you, the commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses is my father. ”

Hearing that the sixth son of the king reported to his family, Qian Jin finally remembered an interesting anecdote in the market. Wang Wu, the commander of the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division, is only an official position of the sixth grade, and he has been in this position for some years. It is reported that because he was unsatisfactory in officialdom, he indulged in lust and married six wives one after another. However, his most beautiful sixth concubine gave birth to the ugliest son for him, which became a well-known joke.

Since this black-faced man claims to be the sixth son of Wang, he must have been born to the concubine in the sixth room of the Wang Command, who is obviously only sixteen or seventeen years old, but he is black and ugly, like a middle-aged man. I don't know if it's a genetic mutation, or the cuckold that the sixth concubine gave Commander Wang to wear.

Thinking of this, Qian Jin coughed lightly and asked knowingly: "I have heard a little about Commander Wang, but I don't know which concubine Commander Wang was born to?" ”

That Wang Liuzi is also a bully who is afraid of the hard, originally he just came to the flower shop today to knock and knock to see how many catties there are. As a result, Qian Jin revealed his details, and he couldn't help but be angry. I saw that as soon as he gave the order, the dozen or so bastards scattered in all directions and prepared to smash the store.

Qian Jin took the Miao knife from the silkworm girl's hand, and when he was about to draw the knife, he saw a yellow shadow rushing left and right, and a handful of Buddha dust was like having eyes, and Wang Liuzi and those bastards were knocked down one by one.

It was Mrs. Hui Jing who came.

I saw Master Hui Jing throw back the Buddha dust in his hand, put his hands together and said: "The money donor is opening today, and it is not appropriate to see blood." ”

Qian Jin handed the Miao knife back to the silkworm girl, gave a salute to Mrs. Huijing, and said, "Mrs. Hui has taught her a lesson. Today, the master is here, so that the small shop is full of brilliance, so why don't you ask the back house to have some tea first. ”

Master Hui Jing said "um", then entered the store, and took a wooden chair to sit on. Qian Jin glanced at Wang Liuzi and the others who couldn't move on the street, and followed into the store.

After being busy, Qian Jin served a cup of hot tea with both hands, bowed down and said, "Mrs. Shi, please use tea." For this Hui Jing Shitai, Qian Jinsheng can't make a little mistake. I suffered enough last time in the courtyard, and now my butt still hurts a little.

Master Hui Jing smiled and said, "The princess asked me to come and say hello, for fear that there will be a small person who doesn't open his eyes to make trouble." ”

"Princess Lao remembers, Master Lao is too big." Qian Jin replied, but muttered in his heart why did the princess know that she was opening today.

Mrs. Hui Jing caught a glimpse of Qian Jin's frowning appearance, but she didn't intend to solve his doubts, she just took a sip of tea and asked lightly, "Have you done what the princess ordered?" ”

"How dare you not care, it has already been arranged." Qian Jin said with a smile.

"Well, good boy." Master Hui Jing praised Mrs. Hui, and saw the silkworm girl waiting on the side, so she asked, "This is the girl in your family, right?" I knocked you out last time, but something was wrong. ”

The silkworm lady said a thousand blessings and said: "The younger generation spends the snow." The juniors don't remember the last time. ”

Master Hui Jing looked at the silkworm girl too carefully, said two "good" in a row, and then took out a jade pendant from his arms and handed it to the silkworm girl, saying, "This is a reward from the princess." ”

When the silkworm girl heard that it was a princess's thing, she exclaimed: "Mrs. Shi, by all means." ”

Next to him, Qian Jin hurriedly grabbed the hand of the silkworm girl who grabbed the jade pendant, squeezed his eyes at her again, and said with a smile: "Don't live up to the princess's reward." ”

Master Hui Jing saw everything in her eyes, but smiled and said nothing.

Two quarters of an hour later, Mrs. Hui Jing got up to take her leave. Qian Jin hurriedly followed out, but saw a person kneeling outside the store, about fifty years old, wearing armor. When the man saw Mrs. Huijing, he bowed his head and bowed: "Xiaguan Nancheng Soldiers and Horses Division Wang Wu, meet Mrs. Hui, and meet Mrs. Qian." ”

It turned out that the commander of the king had put on his armor this morning and was about to go out on some errands, but as soon as he went out, he received a report that his most troublesome son, Wang Liuzi, had been beaten. He didn't like Wang Liuzi in the first place, and he usually neglected to discipline, but the more this happened, the more Wang Liuzi made trouble for him, and then he didn't bother to take care of it.

Fortunately, this Wang Liuzi usually bullied some food and street vendors, and it didn't happen much. But this time is different, Wang Liuzi was beaten, if he doesn't care about it this time, the beautiful concubine in the family will give him a cry, two troubles and three hangings.

So, he said "bad luck" and led his entourage to Huajianfang. As a result, when he arrived at the ground, he found that Wang Liuzi and his gang of lackeys were all lying on the ground and couldn't move.

As soon as I inquired, I learned that it was the famous master who made the shot, and he suddenly went to two souls with three souls. He has been operating in the capital for many years, how can he not know who that master is? Looking at the plaque of the flower shop was still stamped with the seal of the new champion Qian Jin, he couldn't help but shout "bitter", so he simply knelt there and waited for it to fall.

Master Hui Jing glanced at Wang Wu too much, and said angrily: "What's the matter, I hit the small one, and the old one came out, right?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare. The dog collided with Shitai and Qian Shi, and he should be taught a lesson. ”

Master Hui Jing's face was full of disgust, and in a flash, he solved the acupoint of the sixth son of the king, and he also relied on the gourd to draw a scoop for the rest of the bastards.

"Take your bastard son back and discipline him." Master Hui Jing said angrily.

"Yes, the subordinate will receive the order." Wang Wu bowed and retreated. thought that most of his official position was not guaranteed this time, but he didn't think that this matter would pass like this, and he couldn't help but sigh. Looking at Wang Liuzi's dejected face, he couldn't help scolding: "Go back and give me a month of fasting at home, and the threshold is not allowed for me to step." ”
