Chapter 766: Inspecting the Shop
Li Yanqing rarely criticized Mo Jun, but Mo Jun didn't discuss this matter with him in advance, and as a result, there was such a big turmoil, which made him very passive, if he didn't have an opinion on Mo Jun, it would be impossible.
Mo Jun showed a look of apology on his face, and he sighed softly, "This matter is indeed that I didn't think it through, and I didn't communicate well with Chen Dong and them, I originally thought that after the students came out to march, they would gradually attract the people of the capital, but this point was not explained clearly, let them arrange it themselves, and as a result, they misunderstood my idea and leaked the departure time of the capital in advance, which was too obvious and left a trace." ”
"Forget it, I have an excuse to explain this time, just be careful next time, especially if you discuss it with me in advance."
"Remember the humble position, but hundreds of thousands of people came out to keep the capital, which is not necessarily a bad thing, at least the court will not dare to move you easily, and in the future, the unification will raise its arms and shout, it will inevitably be a hundred responses, and a strong foundation of public opinion has been built."
Mo Jun is actually implicitly reminding Li Yanqing that there are two sides to everything, and you have to think about the good side, he knows his lord very well, he thinks too much negatively, and lacks excavation of the good side, so that the true value of many things cannot be fully reflected.
Today's matter is that if he can make full use of public opinion, not only can the lord sit back and relax in the capital, but once there is an urgent event, he can also recruit people as quickly as possible.
Mo Jun secretly decided that even if the lord was uncomfortable with this matter, he would insist on using it to the end.
"How does the capital plan to deal with the imperial court?" Mo Jun diverted the topic.
At the mention of the imperial court, Li Yanqing couldn't help but sneer, "To be honest, I don't bother to care about their mess, I want to take a good rest during this time." ”
After a pause, he smiled again: "If it's possible, I'd like to take Sisi over." ”
Mo Jun hesitated and said in a low voice: "It's better for the second lady not to come to the capital, it will be inconvenient to withdraw in the future, if Dutong really needs a woman, you can find one in the capital." ”
"I'm just casually saying that I don't want to provoke women now, and besides, I'm not a metropolitan now, so you don't have to use that title anymore."
Mo Jun's eyes were solemn for a moment, and he said with a straight face: "Maybe it's not on the side of the imperial court, but in the hearts of the 50,000 soldiers of the Jingzhao Army, you are still the commander of the capital, if you don't insist on it, how can your subordinates understand?" ”
"That's it! All right! ”
Li Yanqing's head was suddenly as big as a fight, and he just criticized him a few words, which attracted such a violent revenge, and he was tired enough after preaching for a day.
"You can call it whatever you want, I don't care, that's it! I'll talk about that tomorrow. ”
"Please rest!"
Mo Jun saluted and left in a hurry.
Li Yanqing was lying on the wide chair, banging on the table boringly, people are afraid of idleness, and when they are idle, they will have thoughts, women, they have been away from their wives for almost a year, and they need a woman.
Li Yanqing beckoned and called the two soldiers in.......
The sky was still bright, the two beautiful and charming dancing girls were quietly sent to the ox cart from the back door by the soldiers and left, Li Yanqing walked to the courtyard, only felt refreshed, the whole body and bones were stretched, he drew a sword, and danced slowly in the courtyard.
This sword practiced for half an hour, and he was covered in sweat, so he put away his sword and went back to the house, today is the first day that he has nothing to do, and he really has something to do.
After drinking a cup of tea and taking a bath in a large wooden barrel, Li Yanqing changed into new clothes, and then got into a carriage and went to Panlou Street.
Li Yanqing is going to see Bao Yan Zhai today, speaking of which he is an out-and-out young owner of Bao Yan Zhai, even if he has no interest in this shop, but this is his father's hard work for half his life, and now his father is not in the capital, and he doesn't even have a subordinate at the level of a steward, no matter what, he Li Yanqing should also care about this store.
Panlou Street is still the commercial center of Tokyo City, after the news of Song Jin's start of negotiations, more than a dozen shops reopened, even during the day, Panlou Street is quite lively, this is the characteristics of the Chinese nation, there will never be a lack of love for life in the bones.
The Baoyan Zhai rouge store on Panlou Street is the only point in the capital, although the supply has been cut off for half a month, the shortage is serious, so that many old customers are disappointed to leave, but the store must not be closed, which will damage the brand of Baoyan Zhai, this is like a very hot star, as long as it does not appear in people's field of vision for a period of time, she will gradually be forgotten, maintaining a sense of presence is a necessary means to maintain the brand.
Li Yanqing's carriage slowly stopped in front of Bao Yan Zhai, he was the focus of the city's attention yesterday, and now he doesn't want to be discovered.
Li Yanqing got out of the carriage and went directly into Baoyanzhai, he was wearing a black cloak with a large hood on the cloak that covered his face.
A rich and familiar fragrance comes to the face, refreshing, this is Youlan perfume, the most expensive perfume of Baoyan Zhai, a bottle costs fifty taels of silver, it can be used for two months, non-wealthy and powerful people do not buy, there is still stock here?
Entering the door is a variety of rouge washing boutique display table, containing the orchid perfume of the kiln small white porcelain bottle on the table, of course, is the folk kiln porcelain bottle, the official kiln porcelain bottle has long been robbed, the porcelain of the five official kilns is also an extremely precious collection even in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Next to him was a young man in a samurai uniform, obviously a samurai who was invited to see the store from the martial arts hall, the various bottles and cans on the display table at the door were worth thousands of dollars, he didn't allow anyone to run away as soon as he grabbed it, the samurai didn't recognize Li Yanqing, he saw a young man coming in, so he stood at the door vigilantly, blocking Li Yanqing's retreat.
Li Yanqing smiled, this warrior is quite interesting.
He walked into the store, the store is very large, there is at least one and a half acres at the entrance of the hall, there are more than 20 rows of shelves in turn, but there are few goods on the shelves, especially the rows of mid-range rouge, which are basically empty, and there are only two middle-aged women in the store who are choosing perfumes, followed by a young female clerk, who whispered to them.
At this time, a beautiful young woman walked forward quickly, "What do you want to buy?" ”
As soon as the words fell, she suddenly recognized Li Yanqing, and immediately covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Ah! It's the young proprietor. ”
Li Yanqing smiled and waved his hand at her, and glanced at the two middle-aged women again, fortunately, the two just glanced over casually, and then focused on trying on rouge, they obviously didn't know the relationship between Li Yanqing and Baoyanzhai.
"Young proprietor, please come here!"
The young woman invited Li Yanqing to the clerk's small room, which was also a replenishment warehouse, but it was empty, and there was no stock left.
Li Yanqing sat down and smiled: "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Amei, and I am from the capital."
Ah Mei hurriedly ran to pour Li Yanqing a cup of hot tea and served it to Li Yanqing, Li Yanqing took the tea bowl and took a sip, and asked with a smile: "You are now the manager of the store, right?" ”
Amei blushed, shook her head and said, "I'm also a clerk, because I'm the only one left, so the eldest lady asked me to take care of this shop temporarily, and the one outside is my sister, who came to help temporarily." ”
"From now on, you're the steward here!"
Although Li Yanqing never asked about the operation of Baoyanzhai, what he said still carried a lot of weight in Baoyanzhai, and even his father generally did not object.
Ah Mei was overjoyed and hurriedly gave a blessing, "Thank you, young owner!" ”
She stayed in the capital because her mother was not in good health and could not go south, but she did not expect to be blessed by misfortune, she actually officially became the steward, and the lowest level of the steward of Baoyan Zhai also had thirty-five monthly salaries, and now, the mother's money for medical treatment finally fell.
"Amei, what's the difficulty in the store now?" Li Yanqing asked softly again.
Ah Mei's nose was a little sour, almost all of Bao Yan Zhai's went south, and the store was supported by her alone, at this time, the young proprietor suddenly appeared and gave her great support, and she suddenly felt that she was not so lonely.
Amei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and whispered: "The main thing is that it is out of stock, but fortunately, there are not many customers who buy things, and they are struggling to support it, but it can only support it for half a month at most." ”
"Did you send a letter to Jiangxia?"
The new head office of Baoyan Zhai is in Hangzhou, but the cargo transit warehouse is in Jiangxia, and the replenishment is generally carried by Jiangxia ships.
"I have long asked my husband to go to Jiangxia to deliver a letter to urge the goods, but now half a month has passed, and there is no news."
"That should be almost there."
Li Yanqing heard her mention her husband, and hurriedly raised her voice a little, so that the little girl outside who was probing her brain could hear her voice, and the lonely man and widow were in the same room, even if the door was open, they had to try to avoid suspicion.
"What's so difficult about that?"
"And.... It's the money from the sale of goods. ”
"Someone robbed you of the money to sell the goods?" Li Yanqing saw her swallowing, and he was a little puzzled in his heart.
"Nope! No! No! ”
Ah Mei blushed, and hurriedly waved her hand to explain, "I have kept all the silver for the sale of goods, one or two is not a lot, I mean, there is a batch of silver sold for goods that has not been recovered." ”
"How many?"
"Five hundred taels of silver, the money for ten red treasure boxes, was bought by the family a few days ago, and they said that they would send the silver immediately, but it has not been sent to this day, and I dare not ask for it."
Amei took out an IOU from a small box and handed it to Li Yanqing, Li Yanqing took the IOU and looked at it, the debtor was Bai Jin, the fourth son of Chongguo Gong.
Li Yanqing laughed, it's really fucking interesting, it's actually Bai Shizhong's son.
