Chapter 112: The Box
Wei Quanbao walked over, and the two jade Taiji balls in his hand slowly rotated, "The eldest young master will be an apprentice from tomorrow, don't forget your responsibilities, so you can do things here!" He said.
When he just saw Mei Zhiyuan talking to a few tents, he was still holding the young master's shelf, and when he came to talk to Ruoxue, he didn't regard himself as an apprentice.
Apprentices like this, who can teach!
When Mei Zhiyuan heard this, his face was a little embarrassed, he knew that he hadn't put his identity right, and he was pointed out by Wei Quanbao, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "What the master said is, I wrote it down." With that, he took a few steps back and stood aside.
Wei Quanbao nodded approvingly with a smile, and turned around to send Ruoxue out.
Ruoxue took a carriage to the Mei family's warehouse on Pingyang Street, where the goods sent by the Mei family to the north were stored, and the goods from the north were stored here, and then sent to the shops in the south from here.
This is also the location of the Mei Family's Dart Bureau, and Fang Jin lives here when he is fine, so that he can teach his apprentices martial arts, and he also has the responsibility of protecting items.
The carriage entered a less crowded street, and after a little more walking, the carriage slowly stopped.
Qiaolian got out of the carriage and put down the footstool, and Peony helped Ruoxue down.
Wei Youde walked over from behind and stood behind Ruoxue, knowing that this was to take him to see the goods, but he didn't know what it would be.
Qiu Lin led a dozen guards to stand against one side of the courtyard wall, and there was an inconspicuous black door on the other wall, which was the back alley of the dart game.
Qiao Lian went up and patted the door a few times, the door opened, and the two guards in the door came out, and when they saw Qiu Lin standing not far behind Ruoxue, they knew that it was the eldest lady.
The two of them hurriedly bowed to Ruoxue, "Hello Miss!" They said.
Ruoxue responded with a "um" and walked towards the courtyard, "Qiu Lin, go and kowtow to you, and ask him to come to the back." She said.
"Yes."
Qiu Lin answered the call and entered the courtyard sideways, and took a detour to find Fang in front of him.
This model occupies an extremely wide area, almost half of Pingyang Street, and there are more than 40 large and small warehouses inside, and there are more than 80 guards guarding here.
Ruoxue stood in the courtyard and took a look, this courtyard covers an extremely large area, and there are more than a dozen rows of houses criss-crossed, and it is difficult for ordinary people to come in and find exactly what they are looking for.
A few guards came out of the corner of the house, two guards led two black-backed wolf dogs, and several people bowed together when they saw Ruoxue.
The two wolf dogs saw Ruoxue as if they had seen an acquaintance, and they snorted in their noses, and they were about to lean towards Ruoxue when they supported their bodies.
Ruoxue walked over and said, "Sit down." ”
The two wolf dogs sat obediently on the spot, looking at Ruoxue with burning eyes, and their long tongues stretched out from time to time to lick their noses.
Ruoxue reached out and scratched their heads, "It's really good, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you still know me!" She said.
"Bring something."
Qiao Lian turned around and went to the carriage, took two lotus leaf bags, and came back and handed them to Ruoxue.
Inside the lotus leaf bun are two boiled sugar-crusted elbows.
Ruoxue stuffed her elbows into her two mouths, and they bit down on the flesh and bones, and looked up at Ruoxue.
"Is the eldest lady here?"
From the back of another row of houses, a middle-aged man in an ink-colored robe came out, saw Ruoxue teasing the two dogs, and walked a few steps to greet Ruoxue, "Hello, eldest lady!" He said.
"Well, I haven't seen Sister-in-law Liu for a long time, how is she doing?" Ruoxue asked casually, reached out and took the handkerchief from Lianxin's hand and wiped it.
"She's fine! I'm busy with lunch at the front. Liu Daxiong said with a smile: "She always said that she would go to the house to kowtow to the eldest lady, but she couldn't leave, wasn't she still talking about you just now!" ”
Liu Daxiong is the head of the warehouse here, in charge of more than 40 warehouses here, he is not like ordinary people with a good mind, what goods are stored in that room, what goods are placed, he remembers clearly.
Ruoxue smiled and said, "I know she is talking about me, so I came here." ”
"If she knew, she would have cried again." Liu Daxiong said with a smile.
Ruoxue turned around and walked towards the depths of the courtyard, "Take me to see what Deng Hu put here." She said.
"Oh! This side please. ”
Liu Daxiong took two steps forward to lead the way, he led Ruoxue into a sandwich road, and walked out of the sandwich road to the right.
Peony and Qiaolian followed closely behind Ruoxue, for fear that a wrong eye would lose their way in the criss-crossing houses.
Wei Youde also followed, he was a little curious about what the eldest lady was going to hand over to him at this time, and he actually stored it here.
Finally stopping in front of a room door, Liu Daxiong took out a bunch of keys from under the long shirt on his waist, and selected one of them to open the copper lock on the door.
The door opened, and the dark room lit up.
Ruoxue raised her feet and stepped over the half-foot-high threshold and walked in, and Peony followed into the house, where most of the space was filled with small boxes of the same size as red lacquered wood.
Ruoxue stood in the door and looked at it for a while, then retreated to the door again, and asked Wei Youde to go in to check, Wei Youde did not hesitate to step in and carefully checked.
After a while, Wei Youde retreated again, "The villain counted twice, a total of five hundred and forty-two small boxes. He said.
Ruoxue asked Peony to go over and hug one out, handed it to Wei Youde to hold, and asked Liu Daxiong to lock the door.
Ruoxue took Wei Youde to the front to see Fang Jin, Fang Jin smiled apologetically, he was practicing martial arts just now, and he was sweating all over his body, and when he saw Qiu Lin coming to kowtow to him, he said that the eldest lady was here.
Fang Jin hurriedly went to get two buckets of water and flushed it, changed his clothes before coming out to see Ruoxue, but it was too late, Ruoxue turned around and came to the front.
Ruoxue said that she was fine, so let Fang Jin not care, she pointed to Wei Youde, and asked Fang Jin to pick a few young people with good kung fu and go to the capital with Wei Youde.
Fang Jin glanced at Wei Youde, a slender person, holding a small box less than a foot high, standing two steps behind Ruoxue, looking nondescript.
When Wei Youde saw him coming, he immediately bowed down and shouted, "Uncle Fang." "He was holding a wooden box and couldn't give it up.
Wei Quanbao and Fang Jin know each other very well, and often drink and gossip in one place, so Wei Youde and Fang Jin are also very familiar with each other, and they were often instructed by him when they were young, and now they are still a little stunned when they see him.
Fang Jin smiled and nodded, he didn't know why the eldest lady wanted to be a shopkeeper with a guard, listening to the meaning of the eldest lady's words, it was to let this kid go to the capital to develop.
Fang Jin was about to invite Ruoxue into the house for tea, when a woman came over there, and knelt down and kowtowed to Ruoxue three times a few steps away, "Miss, Wanfu!" It's been a long time since I've seen the eldest lady, and the slave is thinking about it! On the day of the eldest lady's birthday, the slave stumbled over something, and she couldn't kowtow to you, and she always couldn't get over it! She said.
Qiao Lian went up to help her up, "The eldest lady also said that she wanted to come to see you, so I didn't stop by to come to see you." She said.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Sister-in-law Liu said in a loud voice, she had already gotten up, "Girl, don't touch your hands, look at the oil on my body, it stains the girl's white hands." She said.
Ruoxue smiled and asked her how she was doing, and then asked her how many children in the family were, and Sister-in-law Liu smiled and said that it was very good, the children were very mixed up one by one, and they had to be called several times a day.
"Don't go home, eldest lady, let the slave and maid serve you a meal!" It's just not as delicious as the one made in the house! She said.
