Lin Ruan was a little embarrassed, and was about to explain, Liang Twelve had already seen the situation of Yun Keju on the other side.

"I said little girl, I went to give you some advice, but you can't even be a Yao San, are you deliberately letting those pus-filled officials in Qingzhou City see the jokes of the master?"

The corners of Lin Ruan's mouth twitched, "Twelfth Master, this is only temporary, believe me, in two days, all those guests on the other side will come to our store." ”

At this time, an idea suddenly flashed in Lin Ruan's mind, and he immediately pulled Liang Twelve to the side: "Twelfth Master, I have something to discuss with you." ”

Liang Twelve slapped the back of Lin Ruan's hand: "If you have something to say, what are you doing like this?" ”

Didn't you see that his colleagues had been looking at each other since they entered the store, deliberately teasing him?

Lin Ruan really didn't notice the wit between the other brocade guards, and shook his hand that was hurting, Lin Ruan pointed to the backyard: "Go to the back and say." ”

Liang Twelve was stunned, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Xiao Jingchen.

Xiao Jingchen only gave him the back of his head.

Liang Twelve touched his nose and followed Lin Ruan to the tea room at the back.

As soon as he entered the door, Lin Ruan said straight to the point: "Twelfth Master, I want to open branches in other counties in Qingzhou City, but I don't have anyone to use now, so I need your help to find a few shopkeepers, in addition, it is best to have another group of running guys, these people, I will buy them with silver, there is only one requirement, all of them are signed as death deeds." ”

As he spoke, he took out a peacock green pearl from his pocket, "I don't have much cash now, please accept this pearl from the Twelfth Master, and the excess is considered to be the hard work fee for the Twelfth Master." ”

Liang Twelve's eyelids jumped: "Little girl, do you use this bead as a sugar pill?" ”

This bead looks a little bigger than the previous one, and this is enough to buy as many people as you like in silver.

Lin Ruan smiled, "There are just a few of them, and it's too late to exchange them for silver, so the Twelfth Master will be a little troublesome." ”

Liang Twelve didn't know what to do, now that the shares of this store were no longer in his hands, in case he was on his side, his grandfather was not happy, so he couldn't complain about him?

But his grandfather didn't allow him to tell Lin Ruan the truth.

It's sad.

After thinking about it, Liang Twelve took the bead over: "I'll help you see it first, if you can't buy it, I'll return this bead to you." ”

Lin Ruan smiled and said, "The Twelve Masters have vast magical powers, so there must be no problem." ”

Liang Twelve waved his hand angrily: "Give me less high hats!" ”

Lin Ruan didn't say anything about it anymore, changed the subject and asked, "Does the Twelfth Master's wife like the gift I gave last time?" ”

Liang Twelve was stunned and reacted, "Oh, I like it, but it's too expensive." By the way, you didn't say I almost forgot, she prepared a return gift for you. ”

As he spoke, he took out a box from the purse hanging from his body.

His pearl was cut off by his grandfather and exchanged for three thousand taels of silver, and he took the silver to buy a set of noodles for his daughter-in-law, saying that it was given by Lin Ruan, and his daughter-in-law returned the gift.

Inside is an agate bracelet, the color is very bright, very suitable for a little girl of her age.

The gifts were exchanged, and Lin Ruan was not polite, and accepted it directly: "Please bring a message to Mrs. Zun for me, I like this bracelet very much, thank her for her kindness." ”

Liang Twelve waved his hand and turned to go upstairs.

Lin Ruan didn't have any jewelry, and she wasn't interested in these things, so she didn't buy anything for herself, and even her head was only slightly decorated with a simple head rope and silk flowers.

At her age, she looks good wearing anything, so she has always made do with it.

A few days ago, she received the pair of bracelets from Mrs. He in Fucheng, she liked it very much, but she had to do a lot of things every day, and it was very inconvenient to wear the bracelets, so she put them away.

This bracelet is very delicately made, each bead is very small, and when worn on the wrist, it makes the skin white and translucent.

Lin Ruan was idle, so he put the bracelet on, raised his hand to look at the light carefully, turned around and prepared to order Lin Fu and them to serve the group of brocade guards.

When I turned around, I was startled by the person standing at the door.

"Master Xiao, why are you here?"

Strange, when did this man come? Why didn't she hear a sound?

Xiao Jingchen glanced at her wrist, raised his feet and walked into the tea room, sat down on the main seat very casually, and said, "Will those strawberry seedlings of yours bear fruit in winter?" ”

Lin Ruan looked like he was going to have a long talk, so he also sat down on the chair next to him: "Theoretically, as long as the temperature is enough and the management is appropriate, it will be effective." However, as I said before, these strawberries are just cultivated and not stable enough, so they may not bear fruit. Unless ......"

Xiao Jingchen looked at her: "Unless what?" ”

Unless she goes there herself.

But she didn't want to go, he was the prince, and he was Jinyiwei, and the strawberry seedlings he bought from her before knew who he gave them to.

She didn't want to go to the capital, it was too troublesome, and she had to delay a lot of time when she came and went.

Xiao Jingchen said bluntly: "Your batch of strawberry seedlings, I gave them to the Queen Mother, she likes them very much, in order to raise them well, she has spent a lot of effort, but she has only seen flowers, not fruits, so she specially ordered me to take me to the capital and plant strawberries for her." ”

Lin Ruan had a little headache: "Master Xiao, we agreed before, after the strawberry seedlings are sold to you, I don't care about the after-sales." I can't leave here now, so I'm afraid I won't be able to agree to this matter. ”

Xiao Jingchen said lightly: "This is the will, no one can refuse it." ”

Lin Ruan's chest suffocated, this fucking power!

After a while, Lin Ruan discussed: "Xiao Ye, I really can't leave here, this shop has just opened, and there are people on the other side who are eyeing me and trying to destroy me, if I leave, my store will be over." See if you can ...... like this."

"I can't."

Xiao Jingchen didn't give her the right to finish speaking, "I said, this is the will, no one can disobey it, otherwise there will be only one word in the end." ”

Die.

Lin Ruan was helpless, he knew that he was not greedy for the 1,000 taels of silver in the first place.

It's a big loss.

Xiao Jingchen looked at her annoyed look and said, "You can not go to the capital, but unless you can give me a batch of strawberry seedlings that have already hung fruit and are guaranteed to ripen smoothly when you arrive in the capital." Otherwise, you will have to pack your things immediately and go back to Beijing with us. ”

As soon as Lin Ruan heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he couldn't help nodding: "This is no problem!" How much does Xiao Ye need, you name it, and I will prepare it immediately. ”

Xiao Jingchen's eyes narrowed: "Can you conjure fruit-bearing strawberries out of thin air?" ”

Lin Ruan smiled slightly: "Xiao Ye is really good at laughing. Don't hide it from Xiao Ye, I have been in and out of Shenwu Mountain for the past few months, and the vegetables used in my store are also planted in Shenwu Mountain. There is a spa valley and the temperature inside is suitable for plant growth. I transplanted the strawberry seedlings into the valley after the winter, and the first ones to bear fruit these days are almost ripe. I'm about to use this batch of strawberries to compete with the cloud guest house on the other side. ”
