"What's it, how can you make jewelry if it's so ugly?"

This was the first sentence that Xiaobei said after seeing those rough and angular ruby sapphire rough stones in the Putuo Mountain Inn that day. After returning to Ningbo, Mrs. Su really followed Wang Fulin's words and invited those craftsmen with the best polishing skills, especially those who had been exposed to ruby sapphires before, but only found two in total. Ten days later, the jade craftsman delivered the first batch of twenty preliminarily polished gemstones.

When the bag was untied in front of everyone, the moving gems were dripping and rolling on the black flannel cloth on the plate, red and fiery red, blue and blue, except for the flat bottom and plain square, there were also two small round beads, even with Wang Fulin's critical eye, the polishing skills of these two jade craftsmen were already good, not to mention others.

The Ye family is rich, but the things handed down by the ancestors, the red sapphire inlaid is only a few pieces, and the others are either red gold, or southern pearls, or jade inlaid with emeralds, even if these exotic gems are not the most popular in the mainstream circle, they are still dazzling and overwhelming.

Most women like this kind of shiny thing, with few exceptions, even Mrs. Su, who didn't care about accessories in the past, couldn't help but pick up a grain and look at it carefully, let alone others. Xiaobei deliberately divided these gems into two piles according to their size, but beckoned Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei to come, and nodded towards the gems: "Five big ones, fifteen small ones." ”

I think that Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei also helped people string beads to make jewelry, and they were happy to earn a few private money, but now these valuable things that they couldn't think of in the past are placed in front of them. Wang Xiaomei is young and fine. Just look at it with sparkling eyes. Wang Erniang looked at Wang Fulin with her eyes, and finally said in a low voice: "Brother, you have worked so hard to go back and forth between Ningbo and Putuo Mountain, these things are also used by people to offset the payment, Sister Mingyue and Sister Xiaobei can pick a few, and send two more to the eldest sister, and my little sister and I don't need it." ”

"Silly girl!" Wang Fulin rubbed Wang Erniang's head with a smile and said with a relaxed expression. "The gold and silver he gave me alone are enough to cover my capital. After all, this is the new style of those machine shops and dyeing workshops this year, but the most important thing is that those Franc machine people dare not go ashore lightly, and Zhang Taizheng's gang is obviously not familiar with business experience, or they are not interested in making money, so they can make me such a big bargain. These six boxes of gems can be said to be all picked up for free, so you can take them boldly with confidence, this is the first batch of polishing. There will be better ones in the future! ”

As soon as he said this, Wang Erniang put her mind at ease. She glanced at Mrs. Ye, who was talking to Mrs. Su with a smile, picked for a while, carefully picked a big ruby and two small sapphires, and then said with satisfaction: "This red one is used to inlay a hairpin and give it to Sister Xiaowei, these two blue ones are just inlaid with two lilac earrings, little sister, what do you want, the second sister will choose for you." ”

At Wang Xiaomei's age, she just thinks that shiny things are good-looking, and she doesn't have too deep obsessions. So, she just pointed to a ruby with a cute shape, and said with a smile: "I'm going to use it to make buttons!" ”

Although Wang Erniang laughed and scolded the tyrannical things, after all, Wang Xiaomei wrapped it in a handkerchief, but the two of them said that they would not take more. Seeing this, Wang Fulin had no choice but to hold the plate in front of Mrs. Ye, and said with a smile: "Old lady, if you don't come to Ningbo this time, if you don't happen to go to Putuo Mountain, I won't be able to catch up with such a good thing, even if I borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give them to your old man." Ye Xianzun is my parent in charge of She County, Huizhou, he is in She County, I don't dare to send things casually, now in Ningbo, I am not afraid. Don't push it back, because when my wife first saw me, I gave a lot of gifts. ”

"I'm just a bundle, and what I thank you for your hard work for so long is that you give away gems as soon as you make a move?"

Mrs. Su was angry and funny, and was about to persuade her mother-in-law to refuse, but she didn't want Mrs. Ye to look at Wang Fulin with a smile, and suddenly beckoned someone to get closer, and then whispered to Wang Fulin's ear. Rao is her ear is very good, but she didn't hear clearly at this time. I saw that Wang Fulin's mouth was wide open, and his face was a little red, and he didn't know what Mrs. Ye said. The next moment, she faintly guessed, and saw her mother-in-law take the plate in Wang Fulin's hand with a smile, and called at Ye Mingyue and Xiaobei: "Mingyue, Xiaobei, you all come here." ”

Waiting for a pair of granddaughters to come to her, Mrs. Ye smiled and picked out a huge round sapphire, and couldn't help but stuff it into Ye Mingyue's hand, and then said: "Mingyue, you have a demure temperament, just like your father's name back then, like a bright moon in the sky, this dark blue is most suitable for you, go back and wear a collar, it must look good." ”

After saying this, she picked out a huge square ruby and stuffed it to Xiaobei, who was a little at a loss: "Although your father and mother only recognized you back, I also knew that you are a granddaughter, but since you have entered the Ye family, it is the Ye family." Your temperament is like fire, red is the most suitable, and you will wear a collar like your sister when you look back. ”

One red and one blue, one movement and one stillness, Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei couldn't help but feel very appropriate, only Wang Fulin thought about Mrs. Ye's words just now, not embarrassed, not annoyed, when she touched her nose and stepped aside, she saw that Mrs. Ye was putting the remaining gems aside, holding Ye Mingyue and Xiaobei and whispering something. When he saw this old lady who was completely rejuvenated compared to when he first saw him, looking at him with a smile in her eyes, her eyes were full of expectation and smile, he couldn't help but think of Old Lady Xu and Old Lady Fang, who had also looked at him with this kind of eyes.

The only difference is that Mrs. Ye actually pierced her words. At that time, she actually said: "Okay, I'll accept the old woman, I'm waiting for you to come to the Ye family to give a dowry!" ”

At that time, he only hesitated slightly, and actually missed the opportunity to deny it. Or does he not want to deny it in his heart? Even if it is not from the perspective of the relationship between men and women, only from a utilitarian point of view, although Ye Dacang is a bit unreliable as a father-in-law, Mrs. Su is still very powerful, not to mention that Mrs. Ye is also an understanding person. He was a little entangled in his heart at this moment. deliberately didn't go to see Ye Mingyue and Xiaobei. He snorted and said, "That's right." I remembered that I had also made an appointment with a few people to discuss the price of those spices, and the old lady and everyone slowly appreciated them, and I lost my company first. ”

When Wang Fulin left the room and heard the laughter coming from behind him, he shook his head with some annoyance, secretly thinking that Old Lady Ye was even more difficult than Mrs. Su. With this feeling, he walked quickly to the door and immediately took the two courtiers to discuss business. Ultimately. That batch of Sumu and pepper, although he didn't make the most money, he could still ship it at a fair price. And because of the great achievements of the previous dart masters in escorting Mrs. Su from Hangzhou to Ningbo, coupled with the relationship between him and Chen Xianzun, he naturally chose a good day and hung up the sign of the Ningbo Changfeng Dart Bureau Branch.

I don't know if it was because of the relationship between the bloody heads at the beginning, or because of the reputation of the Ye family, as soon as the dart game opened, it took over several small businesses to escort business trips and goods, which made Yang Wencai and others overjoyed. Although they are only in Zhejiang. At that time, people thought of a peaceful and prosperous place, but the business travelers who often went out knew it. How common are bandits and all sorts of troublemakers in the Southeast. However, when the crackling artillery battle was over and the red confetti was cleaned up, Wang Fulin poured a basin of cold water on everyone's heads after gathering people together in the freshly baked Ningbo Branch.

"Don't look at the many people who are cheering today, most of them are looking at the face of the Ye family, and although you can fight and fight, but these targets are only a few dozen taels of small businesses, and the use of two people and four people has reached the sky, if you encounter a group of bandits of more than a dozen people, can you resist? Even if you can bear it, you have counted the damage and even said that there are no dead or wounded, huh? ”

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Wang Fulin took out a booklet from his arms and threw it to Yang Wencai: "Old Yang, you know how to read, go back and read it to everyone, this is all kinds of precautions that I specially sorted out." From the line to the standard line, several other companies in Hangzhou have changed to the standard line, taking the road of relying on the door of the wealthy businessmen and gradually washing the white, protecting the goods, and making a cameo appearance as a bodyguard to protect the hospital, which is the same as what you did for me before, but to go out completely, even out of Zhejiang, out of the southeast, before simply relying on brotherly righteousness, relying on good courage and ruthlessness, that road will not work. What you want is to be familiar with people, and you want fame. Therefore, Changfeng Dart Bureau can only do business in Zhejiang at present. ”

Wang Fulin's words made a group of men who were originally full of energy all fall into deep thought. At this time, Wang Fulin continued: "Before, the Dian Mansion Zun and even the Wu Buyuan came to me, hoping that I could take over all the messes that had participated in the Beixinguan Rebellion, but I didn't agree. First, it's because I can trust you, but I can't trust them, and second, I don't need to spread out a big spread for the time being. Because, to really play the banner of the dart game, it is not an overnight thing, and a few characters who can really make a name for themselves are needed. ”

Yang Wencai was taken aback when he learned that those bigwigs in Hangzhou's official face had wanted Wang Fulin to come out and clean up that dial, and when he wanted to object, he was relieved to hear that Wang Fulin had refused. When he heard the end, seeing that his companions were all curious, he couldn't help but ask: "Little official, what else do you need to prepare?" ”

"Lao Yang, you sue me, not counting those warriors who served in the army, in Hangzhou and even on the southeast ground, as far as you know, who is the person with the highest martial arts and the most capable of fighting? Don't put gold on your face, I want to tell the truth. ”

There is no first article, no second martial arts, if it weren't for Wang Fulin's annotation, Yang Wencai almost wanted to report Zhong Nanfeng's name. Since he couldn't do this, he thought about it again and again, and finally said: "If you want to talk about the Southeast Hero, the first Danyang Shao Hero, it is really a battle of righteousness and wealth, and the traffic government, it is said that the comeback of the first Gao Ge Lao is his handiwork." And to say that in our Zhejiang, the most famous and the most capable is not in the line, but in the ......"

He paused, looked up and asked, "Have you heard of Mr. He Xinyin and He Fushan?" He has a disciple Lu Guangwu Lu Gongzi, thinking that Hu Zongxian Hu Butang was in a temple in Hangzhou City, raising 700 monks, Lu Gongzi and a teenager went to play and were insulted by the monks and soldiers, and for a while he single-handedly attacked 500 people, and was called the world's warrior by Mr. Xu Wenchang Xu. Later, Lu Gongzi joined the army to kill the Japanese, and Mr. Xu Wenchang also used to write poems and make great deeds, and now Lu Gongzi is over forty years old, and he has come out less, so he lives in seclusion in his hometown Xinchang.
