Chapter 43: Qin Gongzi
It turns out that in any world, shopping with women is a distressing thing.
Su Ming and the four of them first followed Zhou Yun and these female disciples of Furong Hall to Jinxiutang, which is a chain industry that sells cloth and brocade embroidery, which is found in every city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and belongs to high-end clothing products.
The costumes inside are distinctive, keep up with the trend, the workmanship is fine, and the taste is noble, and it is generally patronized by warriors and wealthy people, who are proud to wear the clothes of Jinxiutang.
And the owner of Jinxiutang is the Qin family, one of the eight major families and the richest merchant family in the world. In the entire Qianyang City, the most prosperous street, a quarter of the shops belong to the Qin family.
In addition to Jinxiutang, the Qin family also has Baofenglong Money Village, Zhenbai Grain Store, China Literature Bookstore, Evergreen Shipping, etc., which control the economic lifeline of the entire dynasty.
Because of the strength of the Qin family, it also made the imperial Zhao family favored, and every emperor would marry a woman from the Qin family as a concubine.
Of course, in order to fear the power of the Qin family, other families stipulated that the women of the Qin family could not be made queens, and the children born to the emperor and the women of the Qin family were not allowed to become princes.
It's just that the previous one has been broken, and the current queen mother is not only surnamed Qin, but also after the death of the emperor, she listened to the government, controlled the government, and forced the son of the former queen, Zhao Zhen, who was made the crown prince in the early years, was unable to ascend the throne for a long time, and even forced the emperor's younger brother and Prince Zhao Xiang to go to the frontier, and has not returned yet.
If it weren't for the pressure exerted by the other seven families, this prince would have been deposed long ago, and Empress Qin would have made her son the crown prince and let him ascend the throne as emperor.
The power of the Qin family is not only reflected in the wealth of the rich country, but also in its own powerful power.
Empress Qin herself is an innate eightfold martial artist, only one step away from stepping into the Zhou Tian realm, and she is only forty years old, and she can reach this realm, and there have never been many people in history.
However, it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that she cultivates demonic skills, has a close relationship with the demon sect, and is still the holy daughter of the demon sect.
The ancestor of the Qin family is a strong man in the Zhou Heaven Realm, ranking seventh in the Heavenly List, and his actual combat strength is unknown, and he has not made a move for twelve years.
The contemporary head of the Qin family is the father of Empress Qin, who is congenitally seven-fold cultivated, ranking fifty-nine on the land list, and has good martial arts.
As for the martial artists of the innate sixfold and below, the Qin family is even more numerous.
Therefore, in the Qin family's industry, no sect and family disciple dared to act rashly, and this also made the Qin family's business more and more prosperous.
Su Ming followed Zhou Yun and the others into the Splendid Workshop, and these female disciples returned to the sea like fish, scattering in all directions, chirping and discussing in front of the clothes on display.
The steward of the splendid workshop knew that they were disciples of the Qingqiu faction, but they were also very respectful, and stepped forward to introduce the current popular styles, and said a few words of compliment, Zhou Yun and the others took out the money and bought a lot of clothes.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Qing, who was standing at the door, sneered and whispered: "Women just have a lot of things, why do you buy so many clothes?" Usually you can't go down the mountain for ten days and half a month, and you don't have a chance to wear it every day when you practice martial arts, what do you say is the use of buying these clothes? It's really stinky. ”
Fang Yan and Xiao Feng nodded in unison, deeply approving.
But Su Ming shook his head and said, "It's not right for a few people to say that. Women dress up as a manifestation of their love for life, because with their yearning for life and their expectations for life, they dress themselves up to make themselves more beautiful, which can not only make themselves beautiful, but also make others feel pleasing to the eye. A person who has lost his enthusiasm for life will not dress up for himself. ”
"This brother is right." Su Ming's voice fell, and a voice suddenly sounded next to him.
The voice was light, like the stirring of a mountain spring, and there was an ethereal and holy feeling.
The four of them turned their heads to look and found that the person who spoke was a beautiful girl, about sixteen years old, with dark hair tied behind her head, a jade-like face without a trace of flaws, a pair of beautiful Ruifeng eyes that seemed to contain thousands of stars, a straight nose bridge, thin lips, and a skin that could be broken by blowing a bullet, which together formed a charming appearance.
The woman in front of her was smiling, just by seeing the face, she felt that the spring breeze was coming, and she was unconsciously immersed in what she said.
Zhu Qing's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and said, "This girl is so familiar? Have we seen each other? I don't know what the girl's last name is? Where are they? ”
Hearing Zhu Qing's words, the 'woman' looked stunned, and a look of annoyance and shame appeared, adding three points of flattery, Sakura's lips opened, and she spit out four words fiercely, "I am a man." ”
The four of them looked at each other, only to find that the woman was wearing men's clothes and had an Adam's apple around her neck, and it was a man.
Zhu Qing's face was a little embarrassed, and he hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I, I was wrong." ”
This son-in-law, who is more beautiful than a woman, has a good temper, waved his hand, and said, "It's okay." ”
After saying this, the young man looked at Su Ming with a smile and asked, "What this brother Tai just said won my heart, and Brother Tai also thinks that women should dress up?" ”
Su Ming shook his head and said, "No, I still like women without makeup." ”
The young man asked suspiciously, "But you ...... just now?"
Su Ming said with a smile: "This is different, I recognize the right of women to pursue beauty, so there is nothing wrong with dressing up, and there is nothing to blame." But at the same time, I think that whether a person is beautiful or not is not important on the outside, but more on the inside. A person has a beautiful heart, a kind heart, is not delicate and pretentious, gentle and lovely, and has a good personality, which is really beautiful. ”
When the young man heard this, he gently raised his palm and patted it and said, "Wonderful, Brother Tai's remarks have opened my eyes." does not care about the external beauty of women, but pursues the beauty of women's souls, and Brother Tai's conduct is noble and admirable. ”
Zhu Qing next to him leaned his head and said appreciatively: "Of course, Su Ming's character is not said, and he is still the first day of our Qingqiu Sect, four days after three months, four days after tomorrow, four days after tomorrow, five days after tomorrow, very powerful." ”
"Oh?" The young man raised his eyebrows, his expression full of surprise.
Su Ming said with a smile: "I just put in more effort than others." ”
This is not wrong, Su Ming always felt a little out of place when he came to this world, it was difficult to integrate into others, and he didn't have many friends, so he spent all his time practicing martial arts, which was an important reason why he cultivated so quickly.
The young man just wanted to say something more, but the steward greeted him and said with a smile: "Qin Gongzi, you are here." ”
"Yes." Qin Gongzi nodded.
The steward immediately said: "Then please invite Qin Gongzi to come with the little one, the account books have been prepared." ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, there will be a date later."
Qin Gongzi arched his hand towards the four of them, took his old servant, and followed the steward into the back room.
And in the back, Zhu Qing said with a surprised face: "Surname Qin? This is the property of the Qin family, which means that he is the Qin family? ”
The four of them looked at each other, but they didn't expect to meet a member of the Qin family here.
However, the man was quite easy to get along with.
