The shopkeeper pondered for a while, gritted his teeth, and said, "I can bring in fifty stones of rice in three days, and the rest will be collected within a month, girl, what do you think?" ”

Leng Qiuling raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that this store was still quite powerful, and she dared to take such a large share, nodded and said, "No problem, I'll let people come and pick up the goods in three days, and the rest is not in a hurry, the shopkeeper's slow preparation is enough." After speaking, Leng Qiuling took out a silver ticket of two hundred taels from her purse, handed it over and said, "This is a part of the deposit, and the rest will be paid when you pick up the goods." ”

Shopkeeper Wang took the silver ticket with a smile, his mouth couldn't close, if he succeeded in this business, it would be more than he had earned in the past few years.

"That's so troublesome, the girl said an address, and I'll let the guy send it over when the time comes."

Leng Qiuling shook her head, she hadn't even found a place to stay now, where she could say the address for someone to send, and thought about it, "Don't be so troublesome, I'll let people come and pick it up, if the shopkeeper has time, help me get the goods together." ”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper of the king no longer insisted, they were very busy in the store, if they sent someone to deliver it, it would definitely delay the business, and after rolling his eyes, the shopkeeper Wang continued, "I haven't asked the girl for her name, I don't know if it's the young lady in the town." ”

Leng Qiuling glanced at it lightly and said, "I'm not from here, I'm just passing by, my father's surname is Li, so you don't need to know your name when you go out." ”

Shopkeeper Wang nodded knowingly, anyway, he didn't really want to know, but he just asked out of politeness, and said with a smile, "Of course, of course, Miss Li should be careful when she goes out." ”

"Okay, then I'll go first, and we'll see you in three days." Leng Qiuling walked to the door, as if she remembered something, turned around and said mysteriously, "Shopkeeper, I heard that the eldest lady of your host family is the first beauty in the town, is she so beautiful?" Leng Qiuling's voice contained a hint of jealousy.

The shopkeeper smiled confidently and replied without hesitation, "Of course, it's not a boast, the eldest lady of our host is really a beauty, she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if the girl doesn't believe it, you can go and see it in person, our host is very hospitable, and it will definitely be welcome when the time comes." ”

Leng Qiuling's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Zhihua and said, "The shopkeeper said this, I really want to go and see it, but I don't have time today, tomorrow afternoon, I will ask the shopkeeper to pass it on my behalf." ”

"No problem, then tomorrow the old man will be waiting here for the girl." Shopkeeper Wang touched his hat, and his heart was also very happy, the owner of such a big business must also be interested, and when he meets someone tomorrow, maybe he can still receive a lot of reward.

Leng Qiuling walked out satisfied, this time not only got in touch with the Liu family, but also went to meet Miss Liu in person, which is very helpful for future plans.

"Sister Leng, you're finally back, I thought something was wrong, I'm worried about me." Cao'er was the first to see Leng Qiuling, trotted over and dragged her clothes and said.

Leng Qiuling smiled, took Cao'er's hand and walked over and said, "What can I do, just talk to someone a little more, Li Wei, find a place to live first, and let's go to Liu's house together tomorrow afternoon to meet the famous lady of the Liu family." ”

"See, what are you doing when you see her, and you don't know her, and besides, do people want to see us?" Dacao looked entangled, wanted to see it but was afraid to see it, and he couldn't do it in a panic.

Tong Guò's contact in the past few days, Leng Qiuling also understands Dacao's character, is soft-hearted, and has no opinions, if she is left in the past, she doesn't even bother to say anything, this time for the sake of Li Wei and Cao'er's face, she can only do what she promised in advance.

Leng Qiuling didn't explain anything to Dacao, turned around and left, it was not early now, and they had to find a place to stay.

"Second sister, others are helping us, why do you want to do so much, since Sister Leng said that she can see us, then there must be no problem." Cao'er glanced at her second sister disapprovingly, how did this kind of character develop, and their father and mother didn't seem to be like this.

A few people followed Leng Qiuling into a medium-sized inn, the store was also very clean, Xiao Er, who was cleaning up the table, saw the guests enter the door, ran over, and said, "A few guest officers, you still live in the hotel." ”

Zhihua took the lead in speaking, "I want three upper rooms, and the covers must be newly bought, if you don't have them, you can go out and buy them, and the accounts will be counted together, and they will be settled together later." ”

"Okay, the guest officer upstairs, please, if you have any requirements, just mention it." Xiao Er walked in front with a hunched waist, and after bringing a few people to the room, he hurried down.

"This room is too good, Miss Leng, in fact, we just live in an ordinary place, so we don't have to waste it so much." Li Wei stood at the door and didn't walk in, he felt that he was not suitable for living in such a good place, just find a bunk to make up for the night, why waste so much silver.

Leng Qiuling sighed helplessly, and in the end, at Li Wei's repeated insistence, she could only retreat from the other two upper rooms, and let Xiao Er find two relatively cheap rooms for the Li family brothers and sisters to live in.

After cleaning up, several people came to Leng Qiuling's room to discuss things, Dacao always looked uneasy, and he didn't know what he was looking at when he sat there with his blank eyes.

Leng Qiuling glanced at her, then took her eyes back and said, "Li Wei, Cao'er, you can go to Liu's house tomorrow with you, and go out to buy a set of clothes to change later, Dacao and the little brother will stay at the inn and wait for us to come back." ”

"I, don't I have to go?" Dacao came back to his senses at this time, and after listening to Leng Qiuling's words, he didn't know whether he was relieved or what, and his face was much better.

Cao'er sighed, patted Dacao's arm and said, "Second sister, you can stay at the inn with your younger brother to rest, with the eldest brother here, you don't have to worry." ”

Li Wei nodded at Dacao and said, "Yes, second sister, just leave this matter to me, and the eldest brother will definitely help you get justice." ”

Dacao's eyes turned red, and she lowered her head, she also knew that her temperament was too weak, if it weren't for the protection of her eldest brother, I am afraid that the gossip some time ago would make her unable to survive.

After discussing the matter, Zhihua took out a few taels of silver and handed it to Li Wei, asking the two brothers and sisters to go out to buy a few clothes and come back, Li Wei lowered his head and refused to pick it up, but Cao'er took it, pulled Li Wei and whispered, "Brother, this silver should be borrowed by us, as long as we work hard in the future, I don't believe that we will continue to be so poor." ”

Li Wei glanced at his sister in surprise, then turned around and reflected, "Third sister, it's the eldest brother who has taken a look, and he hasn't figured it out yet." After speaking, Li Wei bypassed Zhihua and walked to Leng Qiuling and said, "Miss Leng, I remember that you said that you wanted to do business, but I, Li Wei, have nothing else, and there is still no shortage of strength and sincerity." ”

Leng Qiuling raised her eyebrows, looked at Li Wei with a smile, and said, "You don't want to help your sister get angry first, anyway, I won't force you to do anything." ”

Li Weiyan shook his head and said, "The reason why the second sister's matter has come to this point is that our family is too poor, unless this status quo is changed, this kind of thing will definitely not be the last, and I don't want to make my younger sister suffer anymore." ”

Leng Qiuling looked at Li Wei's eyes more and more satisfied, although he was a little more affectionate, but he was able to distinguish the priorities of things and have responsibilities, such a person could be used, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll give you a chance, but after I go to Liu's house tomorrow, I won't be in a hurry to do business, we want to make money, not lose money." ”

Li Wei knelt down and kowtowed to Leng Qiuling, stood up and walked out with the grass, Zhihua closed the door and said, "Miss, what kind of business are you going to do, isn't it a waste of money to buy so much rice?" Zhihua pouted, looking disagreeable.

Leng Qiuling couldn't help laughing, scratched Zhihua's nose and said, "Just try your hand, if it doesn't work, think of other ways to make money, don't worry that Miss Ben won't starve you." ”

Zhihua stomped his feet, blushed and shouted, "Miss, the slave is worried about this, I can't tell you clearly, I'll go fetch water, you can rest early after washing." ”

Early the next morning, Li Wei and Cao'er appeared in front of Leng Qiuling in the newly bought clothes, both of them were dressed in gray clothes and coarse fabrics, their hair was neatly combed, and they stood there as if they were two subordinates who were waiting for orders at any time.

"Ahem, ahem." Leng Qiuling choked on the tea in her mouth, Zhihua hurriedly patted her on the back, Cao'er ran over and said with concern, "Sister Leng, are you okay?" ”

Leng Qiuling slowed down, pointed to Cao'er's clothes and said, "What are you two wearing, I asked you to buy clothes, not to let you wear a sack." ”

Li Wei's face turned red, and he said embarrassedly, "Miss Leng, other fabrics are too expensive, anyway, just wear them once, just buy some cheap ones, otherwise it will be a waste." ”

Leng Qiuling was not light, and he didn't say anything superfluous, so he pulled the grass and walked out, and let Li Wei follow behind, and found a relatively nearby ready-to-wear store and walked in.

Because it was morning, there were no customers in the store, the shopkeeper and the guy were lazily leaning on the counter in a daze, and when they saw Leng Qiuling coming in, the guy quickly straightened his waist, and said with a smile on his face, "What clothes do several guest officers want, the variety of small shops is the most complete in town." ”

Leng Qiuling raised her head and glanced around, and said quietly, "You can see what clothes are suitable for them to wear, and the price is not a problem." After speaking, Leng Qiuling sat there and did not move.

"Cold girl......." As soon as Li Wei came, he was glared back by Leng Qiuling's eyes, and he couldn't say anything about the rest of the words with his mouth open.
