Abandoned the boat and went ashore to feel so good that I wanted to cry, Song Zhan glanced at the dock, in order to persuade the mother concubine to agree to go to Changchun Mansion first, the money spent was really tears of thought, but fortunately, I was finally able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River at ease, everything was worth it.

Entering the Jiangnan boundary, it is as if you are in the peach blossom spring. Although his maternal grandfather's ancestral home is from Hecheng, Song Zhan, who was born and raised in the capital of the north, has not inherited a little grace in the south.

As long as the emperor doesn't speak, no one dares to really discipline these bear children, but fortunately, Song Zhan, who has been the leader of the bear children since he was a child, is now slowly sensible and restrained, and he is not as willful as he was in the early years.

Standing on the clean bluestone road and looking at the white walls and black tiles around him, Song Zhan felt that those Jiangnan landscape paintings were still not good enough, and they could not reflect the true beauty of Jiangnan at all.

The mood that had been depressed for several days before was as bright as the morning sun at this moment, and he shook off the cottage fan that he had just bought at the stall, Song Zhan raised a bright smile and strode towards Qianguo Street.

Why is it a knock-off that a fan is a copycat? Nonsense, the fan seller said that the words on the fan were Yan Qing's authentic handwritings, and he couldn't fool others if he deceived him.

When I was a child, I accompanied him in the study, and won a bet with the eldest prince, and according to the bet, the eldest prince secretly tore his emperor's father's favorite fan into eight petals, which was the real Yan Qing's real handiwork.

For the sake of this eldest prince, he lay in bed for half a month, and at that time, the princes and accompanying children who had to get up early to study and rush to homework at night were envious, but they were not willing to bloom like the big prince's disgraceful ass.

Qianguo Street was shouted by vendors as early as the morning light, and the stalls on one side were next to each other, and the side of the store was also open.

Qianguo Street is the most prosperous street market in the entire Changchun Prefecture, and the ground rent is also the most expensive.

Song Zhan is wearing a white straight-necked cardigan, embroidered with delicate and unique cursive on the front and back of the body, and a black hakama on the lower body.

After returning to the Zhizhou Mansion, Tong Qingyan and the three of them read Wen Qi's sealed meal, and they all wisely shut up. Wen Lan looked at Tong Qingyan, whose face was not plump, but seemed to be thinner, and blamed herself.

"An'er can't get used to eating in Wenfu for half a month? Why did you lose so much weight, your brother is getting more and more pressed, and my mother can't hold him for a few months. ”

Tong Qingyan understood that this was her mother's self-blame, and after having Brother Ping, her energy was taken away and she had no time to take care of her eldest daughter. After thinking about the Wen family's affairs, he didn't think of a suitable solution for a while, so he simply didn't bring it up to make his mother embarrassed.

"I eat five meals a day in Wenfu, where will I not get used to eating, my grandfather's family is very tolerant of me, I think every day where I will lose weight when I eat, probably the meat will grow on the body. It's good for my mother to take care of my younger brother, and I have to count on my younger brother to support me when I get married in the future. ”

Wen Lan immediately laughed when she heard her daughter's words, and sighed at her daughter's cheekiness, but she couldn't help but complain.

"When you get married, it will only take two or three years to work hard, and expect your brother to support you at that time? What will he do, wet the bed or play with saliva. You haven't even been able to get married yet, but you're in a hurry to get married than your two cousins. ”

Speaking of Tong Manjiao's marriage, Wen Lan stretched her neck to look in the direction of the door, and lowered her voice to pull Tong Qingyan to talk about the gossip she heard.

"I'll tell you, you have to be careful in the next few days, your father asked me to tell you, it's best not to sneak out of the house in disguise in the next few days, and let it go of the Ruyi Building for the time being. When the nobles from the capital are gone, you will go out again. Your aunt has been in a lot of interest recently, and the Moon Moon Tower has been cleaned up no worse than the post station. ”

Tong Qingyan was originally not interested in the nobles in the capital, but now listening to her parents' advice, the arrival of this nobleman hindered her career, and she immediately exuded a strong unpleasant aura all over her body.

Wen Lan was still thinking about it, thinking about the long sigh when her master soaked his feet before going to bed, and felt that she had to tell her daughter more.

"When the nobles come later, except for the necessary courtesies and accompanying meals, you have to show up, and at other times you will stay in the Hanlian Garden and don't come out, even if you are sick."

Hearing this, Tong Qingyan's thoughts finally pulled back from the unhappiness of not being able to go to Ruyi Building, and looked at her mother's frowning brows with a puzzled expression.

"Why does my mother say that, what's wrong with that nobleman?"

"It's not inappropriate, your father got some news from the old lady when he saw the style in the house, and estimated that your aunt wanted to make Sister Jiao's marriage go to the next level by relying on the nobles. They must pull you if they want to behave, after all, you are the serious lady of the Zhizhou Mansion, your father and mother don't want you to step into those messy things, you are better than anything else in your life, after the noble person lives in our house, you will call it sick. If you can, my mother wants you to live in your grandfather's house until the nobleman is gone and come back. ”

Tong Qingyan thought about the two outstanding cousins, and then thought about herself who only loved food, and couldn't figure out what they could show with her.

However, the rules of this world are not aborigines, and it is always right to be obedient if you are not proficient, and if you don't let you go out, you won't go out.

Bingming his mother, he returned to Hanlian Garden to pack up, and went out with the pearl as usual. This time, I have to determine the menu of the crab feast, and I can't go out for a few days, so I have to rely on the guys upstairs and downstairs to work hard to make a lot of fresh money.

Last year, Ruyi Lou opened to catch up with the annual crab viewing season, but because several major restaurants jointly booked all the freshwater crabs in the hands of crab households, Ruyi Lou still missed the opportunity to hold a crab feast.

Tong Qingyan and her mother discussed finding another way, and decided to bypass the freshwater crabs raised by crab farmers and go to Haining County to find experienced fishermen to cooperate in the purchase of sea crabs.

This year, the good news came, and the method provided by Tong Qingyan was used to successfully send the soft-shell crab from Haining County to the Ruyilou Ice Cellar in Changchun Mansion.

Tong Qingyan, who has tasted fresh soft-shell crabs in the present world, knows that soft-shell crabs that have been frozen in thousands of years of ice are not as good as fresh soft-shell crabs, but compared to people who only know the taste of mature crabs here, it is also an excellent business opportunity.

Because of the early release of the wind, this year's crab feast in Ruyi Lou has attracted many gluttonous guests, and the rarity and uniqueness of soft shell crabs are also destined to be expensive and in short supply.

No matter what era it is, there are always people who are willing to spend a lot of money for the sake of appetite.

Song Zhan walked slowly on Qianguo Street, with a faint disappointment in his heart, if he only talked about the hustle and bustle of the market, where could he compare to the capital, but listening to the rough and bold sound of Wen Tun selling that was different from the capital, it felt quite novel.

Seeing that he was about to walk to the end of Qianguo Street, a magnificent restaurant suddenly appeared in his sight, Song Zhan blinked, thinking that he had seen a mirage, who opened the restaurant at the end of the street, can there be business......

A few people who looked like Hanako who were squatting at the door of Ruyi Building looked at Song Zhan, who was stunned, and exchanged glances, and one of the leaders stepped forward and shook his five fingers.

The reason why it looks like Hanako is because these people are unkempt and unkempt, but the clothes on their bodies are obviously not affordable for Hanako.

"Hey, from somewhere else, right? The weather is good today, so I'll give you a license plate for five taels of silver. ”

Song Zhan looked at Hanako, who was more than half a head shorter than himself and had to raise his dirty face, and was very puzzled. Who is this goods, open your mouth and ask for five taels of silver, and return the number plate, who wants it......

"I'm me, I've got five taels of silver, I've got it, hey, hey, hey."

A long-faced man in a gray fluttering small uniform diligently handed over five taels of silver, and his low-profile appearance flattered Huazi, who made Huazi look at Song Zhan, who was still out of condition, pouted, reached out and took the long-faced man's two taels of silver, and handed over a Nanmu card engraved with the word No. 10.

Seeing the long-faced man happily holding the wooden sign and turning around and running away, Song Zhan turned his gaze back to stop the person who was leaving.

"You asked me for five taels, why did you only take two taels from him."

It was already unpleasant for Hanako to be stopped, and when she heard Song Zhan's question, she showed an expression of "Are you a fool?"

"The price of this license plate is clearly marked, the highest price shall not exceed ten taels, and the minimum shall not be less than two taels, this is a rule that everyone knows, and I did not break the rules by accepting two taels from him. As for why you are charged five taels, it is because ...... I'd love to. ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly and left, this person looked very smart, but he turned out to be a fool.

Song Zhan was still standing at the door of the restaurant with a confused face, the restaurant had not yet opened, and there were some men in the clothes of servants standing or sitting scattered on the side.

Shaking his head and preparing to leave, he suddenly heard a voice "Strong man, please stay", Song Zhan followed the prestige, and a very short young man was followed by a fat young man, and the two were looking at him.

Tong Qingyan looked at Wang Ah Da and scolded Song Zhan, thought about it and stopped him.

Slowly walked to a position five steps away from Song Zhan and stood still, looked at Song Zhan who had a questioning face, and explained kindly.

"The person just now is called Wang Ada, the number plate in his hand is the number plate of this restaurant, and the people with the license plate can sit first after the restaurant opens for business, and the people who do not have the license plate have to wait in line for the people who sit first to finish eating before entering. Spending two to ten taels of silver to avoid the long queue, you can eat food for the first time, it's still worth it, right, as for the real-time price of the license plate, Wang Ada's final say. ”

Song Zhan looked at the Ruyi Building with the door closed in disbelief, and after digesting Tong Qingyan's words, he chuckled, this smile is not difficult to understand, even Pearl can hear the disdain and ridicule in it.

"Thank you to this little brother for solving his doubts, they all say that there is no treachery and no business, and it is also a rare thing that there is such a restaurant in Changchun Mansion, where there are many literati. The restaurant that used such means to deceive people hasn't closed yet? ”

The small universe of pearls was about to explode after listening to Song Zhan's words, but her own young lady didn't give instructions, so she could only hold back.

Tong Qingyan narrowed her eyes and had a new idea about the stupid big man in front of her.

"Why did Brother Tai say this?"

"Hehehe, you can't see the means of this restaurant, after all, you are still young. I haven't seen any profiteers in the north and south for so many years, like this Ruyi Lou to find a few plays to play a few plays, and set off the otherworldliness of his own restaurant, which is in short supply, arousing everyone's curiosity, and it can be regarded as a little clever. ”

Tong Qingyan had a suddenly realized expression, and there was a look of expectation in her eyes, Song Zhan thought about it and said a few more words.

"Even if the food in this restaurant is unpalatable, this alone can steal a lot of customers from other restaurants. People are eager to get their hands on things, and if you perform a few more scenes like this, there will always be a big bait, and you feel that you spend ten taels of silver to buy the number plate that enters first is too different, even if the food is unpalatable, he will go out and tell the people in line behind him that the food in this restaurant is delicious and unforgettable. And the people who queue up to eat the food in the back will wonder if it is because they went in late, so the food they eat is not as good as the person who spent money to buy a license plate, and then, you know. ”

Song Zhan felt that he was very kind, and stopped a child who was very likely to be stupid, looking at the clothes of Tong Qingyan's master and servant, the family background should be not bad, if he was cheated by profiteers, it would be a little pitiful.

Pearl lowered her eyes and looked at the fan that was about to be pinched and deformed by her own lady, looked at Song Zhan sympathetically, and silently recited Amitabha.

Tong Qingyan took a deep breath slowly, revealing a questioning expression, her eyes fell back and forth on Song Zhan's angular face and the restaurant signboard, and finally smiled slowly.

"Brother Tai, do you want to make a bet with me, the food in this restaurant is a good taste that you have never tasted."

Song Zhan looked "If you don't believe me, I can't help it", reached out and patted Tong Qingyan's thin shoulder.

"Little brother, you ......"

"Brother Tai, don't you dare?"

“......”

"It's okay if you don't dare."

Without waiting for Song Zhan to answer, Tong Qingyan turned around and walked away, and the direction was the gate of Ruyi Building. Song Zhan shouted, "Wait a minute", and Tong Qingyan looked back at Song Zhan for a long time.

"Bet on what?"

"If I win, my brother will invite me to eat a golden roast duck from Ruyi Building."

"Cheng, what if I win?"

"You can't win."

“......”

"Hmm...... If Brother Tai wins, you can ask for it. ”

"Okay, that's a deal."

"Little... Childe, where did Ruyi Lou get the golden roast duck? ”

Pearl looked at Song Zhan who strode towards the door of the restaurant, and asked Tong Qingyan in a low voice.

Tong Qingyan took a folding fan to block her face that couldn't help but smile, tilted her head slightly and replied in a low voice.

"It's going to be soon, don't rush."
