Chapter 34: The Weaving Mill

Even a cheeky person like Cheng Laoyou has his own embarrassing things, so after Li Er mentioned this matter, he could only stand there in embarrassment and scratch his head.

Seeing Cheng Laoyou's expression, Li Er suddenly felt more than half better, and it was not good to embarrass him anymore, and said, "Say, what's inside?"

Cheng Lao Demon smiled at this time, and said while opening the box: "Your Majesty, there is a new cook in Lao Chen's house, make me a delicacy." The old minister tasted it himself, and it was indeed very delicious, so he brought it to His Majesty to taste. ”

At first, Li Er raised his eyebrows, wondering what this guy's idea was. Cheng Lao You's things can't be eaten indiscriminately, last time Wei Chi Gong ate his plate of pine flower cakes, and he blackmailed a general.

But when he completely saw what was inside, Li Er's face instantly became gloomy.

"Cheng Qing, what does this mean?" The change in Li Er's title represents how angry he is in his heart.

Locusts are poisonous, he knows that. And now he is annoyed by locusts like this, so Cheng Laoyou took out the locusts, and obviously hit the muzzle.

Cheng Lao Demon didn't talk nonsense, he directly grabbed a locust and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's okay now, no matter how angry Li Er is now, seeing Cheng Lao Demon like this, he immediately stood up in shock and exclaimed, "What are you doing here?"

Cheng Lao Demon had already taken advantage of this time to swallow the locusts, raised his head and smiled at Li Er and said, "The taste of this thing is really good, Your Majesty wants to taste it."

Li Er didn't speak, got up and walked to Cheng Laoyou, and reached out to pick up the box containing the locusts.

I saw that there were four locusts inside, and from the outside, they were exactly the same as they were alive. It's just that it smells burnt.

"Your cook made this thing?" Li Er reached out and grabbed a locust and asked at Cheng Laoyou.

Cheng Lao Demon didn't know what Li Er meant, so he smiled and said, "Actually, it's not my cook, it's just a poor scholar who rents my house." When they saw the locusts rising everywhere, they caught a few and roasted them. It also happened to be seen by the old minister, and he couldn't help but eat a few for a while......"

Saying that, Cheng Lao Demon smiled very embarrassedly, the first person to eat locusts must be Li Er, and it can only be Li Er. He still knows that.

Li Er nodded after hearing this, and asked, "Tell me honestly, what's going on?"

Seeing Li Er ask, Cheng Lao Demon immediately told Qin Ze about Yicang and eating locusts.

After listening to Cheng Laoyou's words, Li Er didn't speak, but looked at the locusts in his hand, and swallowed the last bite.

The more a person has, the more timid he becomes.

Obviously, for Li Er, even with Cheng Lao Demon in front of him, swallowing locusts is also a matter that requires great determination for him.

Yicang's matter was agreed by Li Er, but when it came to how to reward Qin Ze, it was difficult.

Especially when he knew that Qin Ze's origin was unknown, it made him difficult. After thinking about it, he said to Cheng Laoyou: "Reward him with ten copper coins, plus a pair of jade walls." At the end he added, "Let it be rewarded from you."

So in this way, Qin Ze, who was waiting at home, got ten copper coins from Cheng Fu, plus a pair of jade walls. Although he had already had this expectation in his heart, when he really saw the reward, Qin Ze still smiled bitterly.

But he also knew that his origin was unknown, and Li Er would not make any moves until he knew his purpose.

As he thought, Cheng Lao Demon was tasked with finding out Qin Ze's origins. If Qin Ze's conduct is really upright, Li Er doesn't mind rewarding him with a half-official position.

And just when Li Er gave Cheng Laoyou an order, the eldest grandson was also curious about the character of Qin Ze. She specially asked her brother eldest grandson Wuji, and when she learned about the locust plague, Qin Ze also reminded her.

At that moment, he was even more curious about this person, so the eldest grandson Wuji also got the task of investigating Qin Ze.

And about these, Qin Ze didn't care at all, he wished that they would find out to the end, as long as they checked, Taoism would not dare to move. Therefore, Qin Ze can live happily for a few more days.

After doing all this, the rest of the things are not something Qin Ze can do, what he has to do now is to help Wang Fu and open the cloth village.

Speaking of which, Changsun Chong is also trustworthy enough, and directly transferred a shop on Yuanzhen Street to Cheng Huailiang.

Last time, I originally planned to go with Cheng Huailiang to take a look, but I was delayed by Cheng Laoyou's matter, and today I have time, Qin Ze naturally wants to go and have a look.

Otherwise, the system will judge him as a failure to complete the task, which is not good.

In the past two days, the entire Chang'an has also become nervous because of locusts, and even the rice that is ten wen a bucket on weekdays has risen to fifteen wen.

Qin Ze even heard that there were already a large number of refugees from Lantian County who wanted to pour into Chang'an.

However, Qin Ze was not worried about this, he knew that Li Er was planning, as long as he ate the locusts in front of the people of the world. Then it will all come to an end.

Called Cheng Huailiang and Wang Fu, and the three of them walked towards Dongshi leisurely.

Yuanzhen Street is located in the middle of the East Market, and Zhonghe Street behind Yuanzhen Street is a street dedicated to trading furniture and utensils. On the other side is the street where grain is traded. So Yuanzhen Street has always been full of people coming and going.

The shop given by the eldest grandson's family is at the end of Yuanzhen Street, although the location is not too good. But for Qin Ze, it was enough for them.

When Qin Ze and the three of them came, the handover of the store had already reached the end.

Qin Ze saw at a glance that Wang Yuxi was also among them, and today she was wearing Confucianism. These are actually two clothes, a short coat on the upper body and a long skirt on the bottom. It's a very elegant cyan, but it's extremely capable.

It was also after Wang Yuxi wore the skirt that Qin Ze discovered that she was not only extremely beautiful, but also in quite good shape. Especially the waist outlined by the short clothes, Yingying's grip is a little indescriptive.

Even if it is not like the Hou Tang Dynasty, the breasts that are bound by layers of chest cloths are quite large-scale.

In addition, she tied her hair up with a cyan silk today, which made her look extremely dusty.

"Fairy, I was born in ancient times, if I go to modern times, I guess how many otaku will be fascinated." Qin Ze sighed secretly in his heart, and then approached the little lady directly.

When Qin Ze saw Wang Yuxi, it was like a dog seeing it......

Forehead......

The handover between Wang Yuxi and the housekeeper of the eldest grandson's family has reached the end, and it has begun to draw. Qin Ze really couldn't figure out how she could show up as a woman.

Qin Ze avoided Chunxiang's gaze that wanted to bite him twice, and approached Wang Yuxi's side very familiarly. first sniffed the faint fragrance on the other party's body, and then turned his head to look at the other person.

It was an old man in his fifties, but he was dressed extremely gorgeously. There's even a nouveau riche feel. You don't have to think about it to know that this is a person from the eldest grandson's family, and looking at the other party's dress, you know that it should be a housekeeper.

Qin Ze was also idle, so he looked down at Wang Yuxi writing the store contract, although he couldn't recognize all the words, but he didn't bother to get Wang Yuxi's words, it was really beautiful.

It's the kind of long, slender willow leaf body, and every word looks full of beauty.

When Wang Yuxi finished writing the last word, Qin Ze finally heard the voice of the system: "You have fulfilled your wish to open a cloth village, and you have obtained two wish points, and the current wish is worth fifteen points."

After mixing for so long, it was only fifteen o'clock, which made Qin Ze very helpless.

The store was open, but it was difficult to do anything. The cloth village of the eldest grandson in the East City is much more famous than theirs, and under the same circumstances, it is impossible for people to come here.

Because he accounted for 10% of the profits, Qin Ze was also very concerned about this matter.

and so on to send the old man away. The four of them sat in the store and began to discuss, according to Wang Yuxi's meaning, if you want to open your reputation, you must make the store more varied.

Now it is better to sell other people's cloth first, and wait until your own weaving workshop weaves cloth to sell your own.

"But isn't it going to take a long time?" Selling someone else's fabric means that you probably won't even make a penny.

Wang Fu gave Qin Ze a roll of his eyes very cooperatively, and said stupidly: "If this is not the case, we have no choice." You think that if the eldest grandson's family gives you the store, there will be nothing left.

Basically all the cloth in Chang'an comes from the Changsun family, except for this method, the rest is to buy from elsewhere. ”

Wang Yuxi also glanced at Qin Ze, and then said: "Now our weaving in Chang'an has begun to be arranged. But it also needs someone to take care of ......."

Speaking of this, he looked at Qin Ze, and the meaning was very clear, if you don't understand anything, just manage this.

This is contempt, stabbing naked contempt.

Qin Ze was indignant and wanted to resist, but found that Wang Fu was also looking at him like this, and then turned his head to look at Cheng Huailiang, this guy didn't understand these either. But he even pretended to despise Qin Ze and looked at Qin Ze with disdain.

"Do you want to let you go down and manage this weaving?" Qin Ze asked knowingly.

Wang Fu stretched out his hand and patted Qin Ze's shoulder very sympathetically and said, "This is also no way, if we buy the cloth directly, we will not have much profit." Therefore, I can only buy silk threads and weave them myself. This is the most important step, and not everyone can do it. ”

"That's so nice, why don't you go?" Everyone knows that managing a weaving mill is not an easy task, and there is no easier and more comfortable than writing an account book in the store.

But when I think about it, I don't seem to know how to write calligraphy at all, so I seem to be able to do this only way.

"If you find it difficult, I can help you manage it." Wang Yuxi also felt that handing this over to Qin Ze was very likely to cause an accident, so he frowned and said at the moment.

As soon as he heard that Wang Yuxi was also going, Qin Ze immediately raised his head and said with a resolute face: "Since Miss Wang has a heart, she will definitely live up to her trust."
