Chapter 177: Contract (Second Update)
"Madam, just laugh at me!" The cuckoo, who was teased by Shi Jinxiu, pouted, "Madam, I know your preferences, but what I can't be sure of is the preferences of adults!" ”
Shi Jinxiu realized that she was telling the truth.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Yuwenyan is really a little uncertain, and it is a bit difficult for Du Juan to arrange such a large mansion alone.
"Alright, I got it." Shi Jinxiu is the same as the cuckoo.
After Yu Wenyan returned, Shi Jinxiu asked him what he thought about the furnishings in the house.
Yu Wenyan smiled and shook his head with her: "I don't have any ideas, just follow your preferences." ”
In the second half of the day, Shi Jinxiu called Mrs. Wu and opened a warehouse set up in the courtyard.
I really don't know it, but I know that Yu Wenyan's treasury has a lot of good things, and the pineapple wood and rosewood furniture alone are full of two rooms, and the vase flowers and trees are even more dazzling, and the ones she married at the beginning are stored in another room.
"These ...... All of them were saved by adults? Shi Jinxiu, who couldn't hide his surprise, asked.
There are a lot of good things in this house, which are not bought with money.
Shi Jinxiu's heart thumped.
Could it be that these are all bribes given to him by others?
Mrs. Wu stood aside and smiled: "There are a lot of good things in this that are rewarded by the emperor and the eldest princess during the New Year's Festival, but because the adults did not live here before they got married, I asked people to lock these things into the warehouse, such as this jade tree that is taller than a person, and it is not good to be bumped by someone outside." ”
Listening to Mrs. Wu saying this, Shi Jinxiu's heart couldn't help but wonder: "Was Mother Wu also on an errand in the eldest princess's mansion before?" Why do you know so much about these things? ”
Mrs. Wu smiled when she heard this: "I used to be an errand boy in the eldest princess's mansion, but since the emperor gave this house to Lord Yuwen, the eldest princess sent me to help Lord Yuwen take care of this treasury......
"That's no wonder......" Shi Jinxiu suddenly realized.
She and the cuckoo picked and chose in the storeroom.
Although her bedroom is empty now, she looks at the emptiness, and she doesn't want to add more furniture, so she picks up things like plum bottles and tall saucers, and when she is about to leave, she unexpectedly finds a round glass fish tank.
When Mrs. Wu saw it, she brought the account books and registered them one by one, and then instructed someone to carefully send them to the main room.
Shi Jinxiu especially likes the round glazed fish tank.
"Let Mother Qi find someone to buy a few goldfish and come back, and keep them on the windowsill, it must be very good-looking." And she commanded the cuckoo.
The cuckoo smiled and left, but when he came back, he reported to Shi Jinxiu: "Third Master Lin is here!" ”
Shi Jinxiu knew that Lin Xie was a master who did nothing but go to the Three Treasures Palace, so he hurriedly changed his clothes and went to meet the guests.
Because Lin Xie was a foreign man, Shi Jinxiu met him in Yu Wenyan's outer study.
"Third Master Lin, but what good news do you want to tell me?" Shi Jinxiu began to laugh when she saw him.
In her dream, Lin Sanye's merchant ship returned to Tianjin shortly after the New Year, bringing back many good things that everyone had never seen.
"There's good news!" Lin Xie smiled with Shi Jinxiu, "My merchant ship has arrived in Fuzhou a few days ago, and after a little rest and supplies, they will go north to return to Tianjin, and this time, they have brought back a lot of good things." ”
Lin Xie said, and took out a bill of goods from his sleeve to show Shi Jinxiu.
I don't know why, he has always been arbitrary and alone, but he just likes to come to discuss with Shi Jinxiu, and he never thinks that the other party is just a teenage girl.
Shi Jinxiu unfolded the manifest.
Many of the items recorded on it were sought-after goods that later swept the entire capital.
And she was looking for what she wanted in the manifest.
"Sure enough!" The emperor lived up to his wishes, she really found some spices from Tianzhu and Dashi in that list!
"Third Master Lin, can you sell all of these to me first?" Shi Jinxiu pointed to the spices.
This time it was Lin Xie's turn to be surprised.
He is also a man who has been dealing in seafood for many years, and he claims to be more knowledgeable than the average person, but even so, there are many things on this manifest that he has never heard of.
But Shi Jinxiu only glanced at the name on the manifest, and didn't even need to look at the real thing, so he asked for it all!
Is this her boldness, or is there something really special about her?
"You...... Are you sure? Although he knew that Shi Jinxiu was different from ordinary boudoir women, but after all, she was just a young girl who had never even been out of the capital, so he felt that he had an obligation to remind her, "Even I am not sure what these are." ”
"These are all the best spices from Tianzhu and Dashi!" Shi Jinxiu explained with a smile when she heard this, and in order not to make Lin Xie suspicious, she added: "I have seen it in an ancient book that records the development of incense and the production of incense." ”
"An ancient book for making incense?" Lin Xie thought about it and was relieved: after all, during the Tang Dynasty, there were many merchants who drove camels to and from Chang'an, and the monk Xuanzang also went to Tianzhu, so it is not impossible to have a record left.
"If Miss Shi thinks this is useful, I'll have someone send it to you as soon as my merchant ship docks." Lin Xie made a promise to Shi Jinxiu.
"No!" Shi Jinxiu shook his head and refused, "Third Master Lin was broken at sea before, and he made a comeback so quickly, I don't know how many eyes are staring at you in this capital!" ”
"If you send someone to me, it will definitely arouse the interest of these people, and it will be difficult for me to monopolize it at that time!" Shi Jinxiu smiled with him, "So, I want you to send the goods to a warehouse over there first, and then I will send someone to escort the goods back, so that you can do it without knowing it." ”
"This ......" Lin Xie had to admit that Shi Jinxiu was a chess master, and he had never considered these.
"Can't you?" Seeing that Lin Xie seemed to want to speak and stopped, Shi Jinxiu straightened his face and asked, "And if it is feasible, I hope that Lin Sanye can supply me with all these spices in the future!" In this way, no one in this capital can come out of the right side of the Xinxiang Pavilion. ”
"Since Miss Shi is so sure that these spices are easy to use, there will naturally be no problems on my side!" Lin Xie said to Shi Jinxiu, "But this route, affected by the monsoon and ocean currents, can only run once a year, so I can only supply once a year." ”
Although Shi Jinxiu didn't understand what Lin Xie's monsoon and ocean currents were, she was relieved with Lin Xie's promise, and signed a contract with Lin Xie in black and white, which really finalized the deal.
