Chapter 146: I Miss Him
"But now there are more and more people going back to Baihualou······ Lu Qing frowned slightly.
"So I've asked the heads of the two teahouses to start preparing for a finch god competition." Heavenly Spirit Dao.
"Sparrow God Contest?" Lu Qing became more and more puzzled, what does this have to do with preventing the guests of Baihualou from going back?
"Exactly, the joy of chess and cards lies in winning and losing, and if you crown this victory and defeat with glory and wealth, then the fun will be even greater." The corners of Tianling's mouth raised, "As long as I make sure that this fun can attract most of the guests and arouse them to participate in the Sparrow God Competition, then why don't they go back to Baihualou?" It's just that it is a place where you can play mahjong and fight the landlord, if at this time, I will tell everyone that the teahouse has a whole deck of cards for sale, which can be taken home, and you can play when you want, so in addition to the real gamblers, who is willing to spend a lot of money to stay in Baihualou to play? ”
"There is no value in playing itself, the value is in the person who has fun, so I let anyone who wants to play these two kinds of pai gow can play without blowing any effort, and he learns how to play, but it is just to stop the boiling."
"If that's the case, the business of our own teahouse will also be affected, right? Our current foundation is not as good as Baihualou, and if the jade is burned like this, I am afraid that if we don't defeat them by then, my side will be hit hard. Lu Qing hesitated for a moment, but still said the worry in his heart.
"The teahouse's business will definitely be affected, but we have a new income." Tianling winked at Lu Qing, leaned over to her and whispered, "The mahjong tiles and landlord tiles sold in the teahouse are all white silver. ”
"Then you're not afraid that the other side will also follow you to learn, and follow the sale of mahjong tiles and landlord cards? Since they can do such a thing as learning to play, they are very thick-skinned, and this kind of thing may not be nothing. Lu Qing was still a little worried.
Tianling looked at Lu Qing approvingly, he was really smart, and then patiently explained, "Not only Baihualou, but other gambling houses in Pingjing City may also follow suit, this is something that cannot be avoided, so our chances of winning are not here." ”
"In that case, why do you have to act like that?" Lu Qing was puzzled.
"Selling mahjong tiles and landlord cards, it seems that they are digging a hole for themselves, but in fact it is the best choice, because this idea, sooner or later someone will think of it, so we have not thought of this thing when no one has thought of it yet, is to seize the opportunity. In business, most of the time, whoever starts first wins. Tian Ling said with a smile.
"I see." Lu Qing suddenly said, "This is the same as my singing opera and singing music, after a good drama is sung, there is no guarantee that it will not be surpassed by the latecomers, but in that period of time, the person who is remembered and praised by people must be the first person to speak on stage." ”
"That's it." Tianling nodded, "So as long as we seize the opportunity and sell a part of the mahjong tiles in Pingjing City first, we will win, as for how to go in the future, it depends on the situation behind." ”
"Then we're going to have to get started." Lu Qing heard Tianling say this, and stood up a little anxiously, "This matter has to be carried out in secret, and the news can't be leaked, can the third prince deal with it?" Is there anything I can help with at the teahouse? Send someone to inform me if you need to. ”
"Miss Lu Qing don't have to worry, this matter has been arranged." Tianling grabbed Lu Qing and pressed her back to her seat, "The girl has a heart, Qingliu is very grateful, but it is not appropriate to involve the girl in this matter, and I am reluctant to involve the girl." ”
"What do you say is not involved, when Childe said this, did he want to share with Lu Qingsheng?" Lu Qing was a little dissatisfied.
"Miss Lu Qing is someone close to me, I treat a girl like a girl, how can I be angry?" Heavenly Spirit reassured.
"That's it." Lu Qing sighed, "If you care, it's chaotic, I'm in a hurry, I can think of it, how could the third prince not think of it······"
"There are also things that Qingliu can't imagine." Heavenly Spirits are a serious way.
"Really?" Lu Qinghu said suspiciously.
"Seriously." The Heavenly Spirit nodded.
"What is it?" Lu Qing asked curiously.
"My son didn't expect that I was so important in Miss Lu Qing's heart, which really surprised and delighted my son!" Tian Ling said, and looked at Lu Qing fixedly.
Lu Qing was looked at like this by him, and a trace of embarrassment appeared in his heart, and he raised his eyebrows and glared at Tianling, "The third prince just told me a lot of opportunities, why don't you arrange it at this time?" Aren't you afraid of being one step late and being preempted by others? ”
"Hahahaha, it's really the girl Lu Qing I like, and she even says it so beautifully." Tian Ling laughed and got up and came out, feeling extremely happy.
Zuo Wen asked him about the hairpin, Tianling has already talked to Lu Qing, and next, it is time to talk to Zuo Wen about the carriage and horses, mahjong and playing cards!
That's right, when the teahouse opened, Tianling ordered a lot of cards from Zuo Wen, but at the beginning, it took a lot of work from material selection to molding, so it could only be used by the teahouse.
But now these are already in shape and are being put into large-scale production.
Then let him eat this piece of meat in Pingjing City before anyone else has reached in!
Tianling arrived at Yunmuzhai, but was told by the guy there that Boss Zuo was not there and left a letter for him.
said that I would meet at the shop, why wasn't anyone there?
Zuo Wen is not the kind of person who does not keep his promises, if there is something temporary, just let the guy in the store tell him, why bother to leave him a letter, it can't be that something happened, right?
Tian Ling's heart groaned, and he quickly unfolded the letter that Zuo Wen had left for him.
But I saw that Zuo Wen wrote sprinklely on the letterhead, "The scenery of the mountain pond outside the city is pleasant at this time, buy wine for my brother first, Brother Jiang remembers to bring the cloud cake of Li Ji in the east of the city, the xiaolongbao of Master Zhang's family, and the flower chicken on the shop of the Zhou family······"
Tianling glanced at it quickly, and there was a column of food behind him, the amount of food completely exceeded the amount of food he and Zuo Wen ate, and the style of which shop was meticulous, which was really different from the boss Zuo who didn't pick anything.
Cloud slice cake, xiao long bao, called flower chicken ······, and so on! Tianling's eyes lit up, it was Lord Song!
"Quick, you hurry up and buy these things, and then go back to the house and let the small kitchen make some good food and deliver it, I'll wait for you here." Tian Ling smiled and told the Hou Mansion attendants who followed him about the contents of the letter.
"Yes, Third Prince." The squire commanded.
After the heavenly spirit finished giving the order, he turned around and asked Yun Muzhai's men for a horse, and when the waiter came back with the packaged food, he threw it on the horse's back and beat the horse out of the city.
The mountain pond outside the city mentioned in Zuo Wenxin's letter is actually a mountain cliff pass, surrounded by a small flat surrounded by mountains on all sides, and a small basin terrain is formed.
The people here call the terrain high and low in the middle called Tangkou, this place outside Pingjing City, it can be seen from the name, it is not special, otherwise why is it so perfunctory called Shantang, even a modified word is stingy?
When Tianling arrived at the mountain pond, he glanced at the surrounding scenery, and as he expected, the scenery that Zuo Wen said in the letter was pleasant, but it was just that the flowers and trees were flourishing elsewhere, and there was nothing strange about the whole mountain pond.
"Pleasant view?" Tianling raised his eyebrows and looked at Zuo Wen with a smile.
Zuo Wen coughed lightly twice, and touched his nose a little embarrassedly, "What, the scenery mentioned in the letter is pleasant, it doesn't mean that the scenery here is good." ”
"What does that mean?" Tianling dismounted, took off the two large bags of food on the horse's back, and stuffed one bag in Zuo Wen's hand, "What other meanings does this word have?" ”
"I don't think so." Zuo Wen shook his head resolutely.
"You're a ghostwriter for that letter, except for the name of the letter, it's not what you want to write, right?" Tianling didn't go around in circles with Zuo Wen at the moment, and directly debunked their tricks, "Where is he?" ”
I haven't seen Lord Song for a long time, and Tianling misses him a little.
"Actually, I don't even want to write the name of the payment." Zuo Wen was a little helpless and held the package that Tianling stuffed into his hand and said, "He is in a pavilion on the mountainside, and as soon as I sent the wine up, he knocked me down and asked me to wait for you here, for fear that you will not be able to find your way." ”
"Are you afraid that these eaters will get lost?" Tianling joked, what Lord Song is like he still doesn't understand?
"Shhh Zuo Wen blinked at the heavenly spirit, with a look of seeing through it without saying anything.
Thinking of Zuo Wen's worship of Lord Song, hey, this is the maintenance of the fan brother who is alive!
Tianling rolled his eyes, nodded resolutely and quickly, idol-worshipping fans are irrational, and must be resolutely obedient!
When he arrived at the mountainside pavilion, as soon as Tianling came up, he was hugged by Lord Song who rushed over, and then ······ snatched the package containing food from his hand, and turned it in circles while dismantling it, and in the end it almost didn't turn into a spinning top, and he saw that Tianling was holding his forehead.
It's still a familiar formula, it's still a familiar picture, the old problem of Lord Song turning in circles as soon as he's happy, it's been so long, and it hasn't been cured yet!
"Lord Song, stop for a moment!" Tianling was afraid that Lord Song would turn around again and faint and fall out, so he stepped forward to grab him.
Song was pulled by Tianling, his feet stopped moving, but his hand didn't stop, he took out a piece of cloud cake from the package and stuffed it into his mouth, and snorted with satisfaction, "Hmm~ That's the taste!" ”
Tianling hadn't seen Lord Song for a long time, and seeing him like this at this time, it was like going back to when he first came to this world and bribed Lord Song with xiaolongbao, Lord Song was also like this at that time, squinting his eyes and eating with a satisfied face.
Tianling smiled and passed the package from Master Song's hand and put it on the stone table in the center of the pavilion, "You don't have to cover these, we won't rob you, and, in addition to the ones written in your letter, I also asked the small kitchen of the Hou Mansion to prepare some food and bring it over, and Brother Zuo Wen has a big package over there." ”
"Who is afraid that you will rob it?" Song Ke's eyes widened, slapped off the pastry crumbs in his hand, and then made it down next to the table, "Besides, just the two of you, can you rob me?" ”
"Then you just ······" The Heavenly Spirit looked at the table meaningfully.
"You're smart!" Song snorted, "The people take food as the sky, and it's not a shame to love food, it's better than some people who love to suffer." ”
"When did I suffer?" Tianling pouted unconvinced.
"Jumping into the pit dug by others and not being able to get up, not to mention, and in turn taking a beating from others, isn't this a loss?" Song ruthlessly shook out the previous events of Tianling.
······
Two people who haven't seen each other for a long time, you come and I expose each other's shortcomings, Zuo Wen couldn't bear to see his idol jumping and scolding the street, so he found an excuse to hide, only Tianling and Song were in the pavilion, you stared at me and I stared at you.
"What do you see, it's you, you're not small, you even dare to open a gambling house?" Lord Song pulled a piece of flower chicken and put it in his mouth, and scolded while eating, "What? Do you dare not admit it? ”
Tianling was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Lord Song to know that the two teahouses were opened by him, and he didn't expect that Lord Song, who had been avoiding contact, knew about him so clearly.
"I opened the teahouse, so what is there to admit, who did you listen to?" Tian Ling asked out loud.
"Aren't you quite capable? Guess what. Lord Song didn't respond, holding Huan Shi who called the flower chicken to gnaw.
"It is said that people are short and eat people with soft mouths, you can teach me so confidently when you eat the chicken I bought, how did you do it?" Tianling was so worn out by Song Ke's appearance that he lost his temper.
"I'm a little skeptical now, whether the third prince of Jiang who is good at scheming and has nine tricks in Pingjing City is exaggerated." Song said.
"What do you mean?" Tianling was a little confused, didn't he talk about the gambling house? How did you get to people's comments on him?
"If it is not exaggerated, how can you be confused and open such a gambling house at the foot of the Son of Heaven?" Song said.
