Chapter 172 is a good business
The next day, Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er took half a day off and went to the pen and ink shop in Beicheng.
When it was auspicious, the shopkeeper Qin took out the firecrackers and put them off.
At this time, the lion dance team suddenly came outside, and the two golden lions shook their bodies flexibly, attracting many onlookers.
Xiao Qi: "Shopkeeper Qin, is this what you invited?" ”
Shopkeeper Qin said: "No, I only bought firecrackers." ”
Soon, a man came in at the door of the shop.
"Master, this lion spirit, I asked Ngawang to find it - our most expensive lion dance team in Pengzhou."
Xiao Qi: "What should I do, we don't have the budget to do lion dance." ”
Feng Xiaogongzi: "How can I let the master pay for you, this is what I specially asked Ah Wang to invite in order to celebrate the opening of the master's shop, and I don't need the master to pay." ”
Xiao Qi: "You are wrong, first, I am not your master, and second, you also have a share in this shop." ”
While the house was talking, Mu Ziqi came over with a cash cow on his head.
Xiao Qi's eyes sparkled as he looked at the cash cow on Mu Ziqi's head, "Second Master Mu, you are really dressed up rich today!" ”
Mu Zichen raised his chin, "Of course, today is a good day for the opening of the shop, so I deliberately dressed to be more festive." ”
"Didn't you say you had to sign a paper deed? Hurry up and bring it to me to sign. ”
After Mu Ziqi and Feng Xiaogongzi signed the deed, they stood at the door of the shop together to watch the lion dance, attracting a bunch of women to watch.
Feng Wanbao and his wife also followed Feng Xiaogongzi in a sedan chair, standing in the corner and looking in the direction of the shop.
Feng Wanbao instructed the Feng steward: "When the lion picks the green, you must mess it up." ”
Mrs. Feng pinched the handkerchief in her hand, "Master, how can you be like this, it was specially invited by Yu'er." ”
Feng Wanbao glared at Steward Feng: "What are you doing here, don't do what I say." ”
"Yes, sir."
Steward Feng immediately sent Feng Wanbao's guard Feng Jiu to destroy the lion harvest.
At the door of the shop, the lion dance is at the critical moment of green picking, and the two colorful lions jump to a beautiful cabbage hanging in front of them at the same time.
Feng Jiu threw two stones and smashed them at the two colored lions, Xiao Qi reacted quickly and immediately flew to catch the stones.
Feng Jiu saw that the task was about to fail, and immediately threw out the third stone, which smashed directly in the direction of the cabbage.
Xiao Qi was about to pick up the third stone, but was blocked by a white figure, and the person who caught the third stone was the handsome and peerless Mu Ergongzi.
"This son is so beautiful."
"The posture of an immortal."
……
The big girl, the little daughter-in-law, the old lady, and the little girl all came around.
Xiao Qi was squeezed aside, she threw the two stones back the way they came, and Feng Jiu was smashed to his knees.
Xiao Qi was about to chase after Feng Jiu, but was stopped by Hua Xi'er.
Xiao Qi looked at Hua Xi'er, who was standing calmly on the side: "Aunt Xi, why are you holding me?" ”
"Today is a good day for our shop to open, so don't make a big fuss. I've seen that the man was sent by Feng Wanbao, and Feng Wanbao is standing in the corner. ”
"Aunt Xi, why didn't you make a move when the pebble was thrown over just now?"
The corners of Hua Xi'er's mouth hooked slightly, "With you, which round will I make a move?" ”
When the lion ate the cabbage in his mouth, Hua Xi'er announced loudly: "Today, our Qixi pen and ink shop is open, and all couplets will be sold at half price, for a penny and a pair." ”
Mu Zichen and Feng Xiaogongzi walked into the shop, and the women also rushed into the shop.
The guests paid, and Mu Ziqi helped deliver the things.
So women, regardless of age, poured into the shops to buy things.
Xiao Qi: "I really didn't expect that business would be so hot." ”
Hua Xi'er: "There shouldn't be so many people tomorrow, you didn't see it, the people who came in to buy things were all women, and they only bought some things at random, and their eyes didn't look at the things in the shop at all, they were all focused on Mu Zixi." ”
Seeing a five- or six-year-old girl with a double hair also holding two copper plates in her hands, Xiao Qi said: "Children, we are a pen and ink shop here, and we don't sell snacks." ”
"I don't buy snacks, just sell me something, but ask that good-looking boy to show it to me."
Xiao Qi looked in the direction that the little girl was pointing at, it was Mu Ziqi, who was dressed in white and was chic and handsome.
Xiao Qi pouted towards Hua Xi'er: "It's really amazing, such a young child is fascinated by a cash cow." ”
Hua Xi'er: "Have you ever heard the story of the fruit car? Legend has it that there was a handsome man named Pan An, and every time he went out in the car, a woman would throw fruit at him, and every time the car would be full. ”
Xiao Qi: "When our business is not good one day, I will call Mu Ziqi over to deliver things again, and ensure that the business will be hot again." ”
Mrs. Feng saw that the business in the shop was booming, so she said: "I didn't expect Yu'er's shop to be so hot when it first opened." ”
Feng Wanbao snorted coldly, "In the woman's opinion, paper is so expensive now, they only sell a pair of couplets for a penny, and they lose a pair of couplets, and they don't have to wait for dividends, it is estimated that the shop will close down soon." ”
Steward Feng looked happy, "Master, I just went over to see it, the cabbage is not a real cabbage, but the jade carved cabbage in your study, fortunately Feng Jiu didn't knock the cabbage to the ground." ”
Feng Wanbao fainted directly on the ground when he heard this.
In the afternoon, Feng Xiaogongzi returned home and secretly put the jade carved cabbage on the desk, and was arrested on the spot.
"Kneel down for me, you stinky boy, you actually took our family's heirloom and let the lion pick the green."
Feng Xiaogongzi knelt on the ground straight: "Dad, I was wrong, I really know that I was wrong, I have put the jade carved cabbage back on the table." ”
Feng Wanbao trembled and pointed at his youngest son: "You still dare to say it, do you know that the cabbage was almost broken by Feng Jiu." ”
Feng Xiaogongzi: "What, Dad, why are you so despicable and let Feng Jiu sabotage the opening of our shop?" ”
Feng Wanbao picked up the book on the shelf and threw it at his youngest son, "Dare to say that your father is despicable, I will kill you as an unfilial son." ”
Mrs. Feng stopped between the two fathers and sons, "Don't you, master." ”
"Dad, you threw me a precious ancient book." Feng Xiaogongzi hurriedly picked up the books on the ground.
Feng Wanbao was so angry that he fell on the Taishi's chair.
……
Just after the New Year, the catchers were all sent by the Mu Governor to build wooden houses outside the city.
Lu Zhutou: "The prefect of Mu asked people to close the east and west gates, and concentrated all the victims outside the south gate, a few days ago a lot of wooden houses have been built outside the south city, but it is still not enough. ”
"According to Master Wang, there may be a lot of snow in the next two days, so we all have to go out of the city to help build wooden houses."
Xiao Qi hugged Hua Xi'er's arm, "Aunt Xi, that Master Wang is really powerful, and he can actually watch the sky." ”
Hua Xi'er: "It sounds like a talent. ”
Carrying wood is a heavy job, even if Xiao Qi is a person with infinite strength, he is not light tired after carrying wood for half a day, not to mention other fast catches, at noon, all of them fell to the ground and were unwilling to get up.
Hua Xi'er thought for a while and said to Lu Feng: "Pengzhou City is surrounded by moats, and the timber is cut from the mountains in the north, so it is better to put it in the water and transport it to the south city gate, Lu Zhutou, what do you think?" ”
Lu Feng: "Miss Xi'er has a point, I'll go and discuss with Master Wang." ”
Master Wang listened to Lu Zhutou's suggestion and nodded repeatedly: "This is a good idea, it can save a lot of manpower, you can arrange it quickly." ”
With the method of water transportation, the efficiency of transporting timber in the afternoon is really much higher.
Master Wang held his beard and praised: "Yes, yes, this idea is really good, and if you do it for another day tomorrow, it should be enough for the victims." ”
When Mu Zishan returned home in the evening, Mrs. Mu was very distressed when she saw that his hands were full of blisters.
"Don't let Qi'er pass tomorrow."
Mu Zhifu: "I have a lot of things to do in my yamen, and Qi'er can represent me outside the city." ”
Mrs. Mu: "I don't care, anyway, I can't let Qi'er do such a hard thing." ”
"There must be someone to go, if Qi'er doesn't go, then let Yun'er go."
Mrs. Mu: "Yun'er still wants to study, or let Qi'er go." ”
Mu Zhifu gently hugged his wife's shoulders: "Qi'er is stubborn, he should hone and hone more, he went to Jiangnan to buy grain a few days ago, and he did a good job." ”
……
Another day was built of wooden houses, this time very efficient, a total of dozens of houses.
Master Wang was very satisfied, and said to everyone: "The house is still not enough, let the victims squeeze it, it should snow at night." ”
That night, there was a heavy snowfall.
