288 West City in distress

"Auntie, will I send you home now?" As soon as he saw Liu Yuan leaving the house, he said flatteringly, and hurriedly removed a horse stool from the car to facilitate Liu Yuan to get into the carriage.

Cui Fu sent someone to pick up Liu Yuan, naturally he couldn't ignore it, the competent housekeeper had arranged for the carriage to wait here early in the morning, as for the coachman's enthusiasm that was higher than expected, it was estimated that the golden bean was still playing a role.

"Go to Zhibao Zhai in the West Market, there is something to deal with."

"Yes, aunt, sit down." The coachman gave an order, and with a flick of the whip, there was a crisp "snap", and the carriage ran forward quickly.

Liu Yuan decided to help Cui Mengyao handle things first, because there are too many dignitaries and nobles in Chang'an, who can guarantee that the rare cat's eye gem must still be in Zhibao Zhai, if you can't buy it, it is estimated that Cui Mengyao will be very disappointed, this is the first time Cui Mengyao has entrusted herself with things, but she can't mess up, she has to be worthy of a beautiful sachet to say anything, isn't it?

Besides, this line is also a triple win, Liu Yuan knows that the famous Zhibao Zhai, is located in the West Market, and the Jinyu family is just one street away, and the Jinghua study is on the opposite side of it, this line, Liu Yuan can finish Cui Mengyao's entrustment, you can see the operation of the Jinghua study in cooperation with the Moyun study, and then go a little longer, and you can go back to the Jinyu family to see the recent progress of the group of fine works, guide or something.

Smart people always have a good way to improve efficiency.

Zhibao Zhai, the largest antique and miscellaneous shop in Chang'an City, according to legend, the proprietor behind it is the prince of the East Palace, which is one of his means of preparing money and silver, anyway, no one dares to find its trouble, in addition to the deep background, another feature of Zhibao Zhai is that the goods are excellent, the variety is complete. There are not only antiques from the previous dynasty, but also all kinds of treasures, jade, fine gems from exotic lands, treasures, etc., there are everything, many Hu merchants who came from afar, many of them chose to sell good things and cash out to Bao Zhai as soon as they arrived in Chang'an.

Simple, the shopkeeper of Zhibao Zhai is a celebrity in the West Market, and has declared more than once that if there is anything good, just bring it to Bao Zhai. Ten thousand taels of cash gold are waiting for you to get them.

"Auntie, it's here." While still thinking, the carriage stopped, and the coachman said respectfully.

Liu Yuan nodded and jumped out of the car. With a polite gesture, send the coachman away. Only then did I look at the Zhibao Zhai in front of me: I saw that it was a two-and-a-half-story small building. The decoration is very elegant, the goods inside are dazzling, and the most surprising thing for Liu Yuan is that this guy from Zhibao Zhai turned out to be a stunning orchid, no wonder the business is so good. One by one, there is nothing to do, and they join in the fun, which is also a good innovation.

"Guest, I don't know what you're looking for?" As soon as Liu Yuan walked into Zhibao Zhai, he was soon greeted by a blonde orchid. asked with a smile on his face.

Unexpectedly, this orchid is also said so well, not only well, but also well, as soon as ordinary people enter the store, the shopkeeper will ask "what do you want to buy", but this orchid does not say what to "buy", but to say "find" something, although it is a word difference, but it leaves a very good impression on customers.

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "I want to find cat stone gemstones, I wonder if your store sells them?" ”

"Guest officer, your news is really well-informed, we just entered a batch of gems two days before Bao Zhai, among which there are just a few very high-quality opals, maybe there are you like, the first floor is antique treasures, the second floor is gem miscellaneous, I will take you to the second floor to see." Orchid said enthusiastically.

"Okay, let's go." Liu Yuan bought cat's eye gems for Cui Mengyao on this trip, and he didn't waste time when he heard the words, so he said directly.

"Guest officer, watch out for the stairs"

Liu Yuan's figure had just disappeared, and several beautiful shadows suddenly appeared on the street, looking and strolling around as he walked.

It was Xiao Niang, Du Sanniang, and Xiao Fluttershy, the personal maid who followed Du Sanniang.

The three of them were shopping together.

The little lady sighed to her little hand with her mouth, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect the weather to be so cold, and it is still so lively here." ”

"Isn't it" Sanniang said with a little feeling: "Beijing is the capital, much more prosperous than Yangzhou, hey, it's really good, sister, it's not bad to pull you out, you don't want to come out yet, it's better to say that the street is deserted than to be at home, it's time to be grateful to me, right?" ”

Sanniang is very satisfied with her current state: there is no Venerable Master at home to nag and reprimand, Liu Yuan is young and golden, the future is bright, the most important thing is that there is no shelf, and he is also very respectful of himself, no one says when he wants to get up in the morning, he can't say half of it, he can eat if he wants, he can play when he wants, he has brocade clothes and jade food, and he has slaves before and after the saddle of the horse for everything, which is simply too satisfying.

At that time, I was fortunate that I pinched it when I took a fancy to it, and my attitude was resolute enough, otherwise, where would such a good man get his turn?

Xiaoniang nodded and said: "Well, it is much more lively than Yangzhou, and there are more people in the spring and second seasons. ”

Fluttershy followed behind with a large pile of stuff and said happily, "There's a lot of delicious stuff here, Miss, why don't we buy more and eat more?" ”

"You little hoof, you're gluttonous all day long." Du Sanniang pointed at Fluttershy angrily and funny, and said, "Today you are fried millet seeds, rock sugar gourds, barbecued meat, and hu cakes or something, aren't you afraid to eat?" ”

Happy today, Du Sanniang let Fluttershy eat openly, this little girl, just the barbecue ate three big pieces, and the rock sugar gourd ate four skewers, I didn't expect to be able to eat it again, Du Sanniang is a little convinced of her, like herself, just ate half a piece of barbecue and some preserved fruit, and felt full.

"I can eat a little more." Fluttershy says in her phase.

"Okay, take it well, you can buy whatever you want to eat later." Du Sanniang said with a smile.

"Yes, miss."

Xiao Niang looked at the sky, and then saw Xiao Fluttershy holding those satin, rouge gouache and other things, frowned and said, "Sanniang, or let's go back, you see, we have bought so much." ”

Du Sanniang smiled and said, "Sister, let's buy one more thing and go back." ”

"What's that?"

"Let's give Liu Yuan a gift for the New Year, we have a gift, and we will also give him a copy to make him happy." Du Sannian sighed a little and said: "This year, he is tired enough." ”

A lot has really happened this year. For the second daughter, it is not too much if she changes to a new life, Du Sanniang no longer does the cheap business of singing, sells the house and goes ashore, and with the help of Liu Yuan, she is out of the country, and now she has become a happy little woman to be married; The experience of the little lady is even more tortuous, first the pain of losing her father, the family business is not guaranteed, and she is about to sell herself into the Qinglou, but fortunately, the senior brother turned the tide. After several twists and turns, it was the last time to live such a good life.

Unconsciously, more than half a year has passed, and I can only sigh that time has passed and the world is myriad.

The little lady said with some emotion: "Senior brother is too hard. It's to give a gift to make him happy. After speaking, the little lady looked at the well-decorated Zhibao Zhai and said, "Sanniang." Are we going to Zhibao Zhai to buy gifts for my brother? I only have a few dozen taels on me. I don't know if it's enough. ”

Du Sanniang shook her head and said: "Those treasures and whatever, I think it's better to forget it, first, it's expensive, and secondly, Liu Yuan is making jewelry, these are nothing to him." We don't buy some books for him, so that when he has free time, he can be more studious and motivated, you know. Those officials and masters, all of them are full of experience, if they have no knowledge, not only will the officials look down on them, but it will also be difficult to be promoted, Liu Yuan has only cared about making money recently, and has wasted all his knowledge, which is not good. ”

"Sanniang, you are still thoughtful, it just so happens that there is such a big study here, let's go in and have a look."

"yes, okay."

"Hehe, two beauties, where are you going, why don't you let me accompany you?" When the two women were about to enter the study, a man in official uniform suddenly appeared in front of them, opened his hands, blocked the way of the two, and said with a lewd smile.

Sanniang looked up, her pupils contracted, she took two steps back in fright, and said in surprise, "It's you?" ”

This person was in Yangzhou when he kidnapped Du Sanniang, and he almost succeeded in his son: Changsheng Shengwen, I didn't expect to meet him here.

"That's right, it's me, little beauty, I didn't expect it, you still remember Young Master Ben, hehehe, it seems that the fate of the two of us has arrived, but I can't open it if I want to, no, Yangzhou farewell, I didn't expect you to come to the capital to find me, and you look handsome." The eldest grandson Shengwen shouted proudly.

"Lord Captain, I think this little lady admires your talent, and she has come all the way to find you for a tryst."

"That's it, that's it, who in Chang'an doesn't know that the eldest grandson captain is suave and has an unlimited future."

"Yes, beauty, Captain, there are two more at once."

"The two beauties are the old looks of our captain, tsk, the captain is really blessed."

A group of soldiers surrounded the two girls, and as soon as you said a word to me, they teased Xiaoniang and Du Sanniang.

Seeing that someone wanted to stretch out her feet, the little lady was so frightened that her face turned white, and she was a little scared, and stammered: "You, what are you going to do, I, my senior brother is a six-grade official." ”

There was a danger, Xiaoniang immediately remembered her "protector" Liu Yuan, and immediately moved Liu Yuan's official position out.

The eldest grandson Shengwen, who was standing in front, seemed to be startled, and asked a little disbelievingly: "What?" Six-six grade officials? ”

Seeing that he was afraid, Xiao Niang's courage suddenly increased a lot, and she said loudly: "That is, my senior brother is a six-grade official, if you dare to offend me, he will arrest you and put you in prison." ”

"Ha Lu Ha"

"Ha Lu Haha" The eldest grandson Shengwen suddenly laughed loudly, laughing so much that tears almost came out, holding his stomach, he wanted to roll on the ground, and those subordinates all laughed up and down, as if they heard a very funny joke.

The capital, that is to treat Lang more than a dog, the prince walks all over the ground, the third or fourth grade of the big man is here, if he has no real power or a deep background, then he has to walk with his belly, what is the six-rank petty official, if it is not a Beijing official, people leave their hometowns and are cheap, it is estimated that he is a martial artist of the Wu Hou shop, and he can also bully him.

The eldest grandson Shengwen was escorted back to Beijing in a very humiliating way, and he wanted to take revenge, but the other party was a person from the Qinghe Cui family, and the background was too deep, not to mention that his father, who was the governor of Yongzhou, did not dare to act rashly, but he loved his eldest grandson Wuji very much, and he did not support it, and he could only bury it in his heart and hide it, but it was okay, the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson Xiang thought that he was idle in space, so they found him an errand and made a lieutenant in the infantry yamen of Yongzhou Mansion, which was regarded as a future for him.

This infantry captain is extraordinary, even the Wuhou shop in Chang'an also has to take his temperance, coupled with his illustrious background, many people respect him for three points, let him three points, usually take people to patrol everywhere, and there are many benefits at ease, Changsun Shengwen is also very satisfied, when he went to the West City to inspect today, he didn't expect to find the prey that made him feel excited.
