Chapter 188: Hold on to the façade
Xiao Er was a little frightened, he covered the silver in his pocket and stared at Yang Zichen vigilantly.
"If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it, and he hasn't shown his face, but I heard that he is a big man who can't be shaken."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Hao frowned lightly, "Why do you see a big man?" ”
Xiao Er shrunk his shoulders in a sneer, looking indifferent.
"In short, I heard that he has a generous shot and a strong background, and as for the other small ones, I don't know very well."
After speaking, Xiao Er added new tea to the two of them, shook the towel around his neck, and turned his head to leave.
Generous shots and strong backgrounds?!
Xuanyuan Hao muttered to himself, kept repeating Xiao Er's words, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
"Zichen, let's go!"
After speaking, he got up and walked away, Yang Zichen looked confused, and raised his heel.
"King Hao, what do you mean by this? Don't ask halfway through the question? I don't know who is behind this gambling house! ”
Xuanyuan Hao glanced at Yang Zichen meaningfully with cold eyes, didn't say a word, and waved away.
Back in the palace, he went straight to the study, followed by the anxious Yang Zichen.
Yang Zichen circled around Xuanyuan Hao left and right, bursting with curiosity.
"Xuanyuan Hao, do you know anything?"
Xuanyuan Hao's eyes didn't lift, he took out the topographic drawings of the capital by himself.
"You take a closer look at the distribution of these shops that have changed owners, and then think about the words of the shopkeeper Xiaoer, the people behind this curtain are about to come out."
Hearing this, Yang Zichen put his face on the drawing, and his fingers kept drawing circles according to the direction of the store.
Finally, the restaurant and shop form a closed circle, tightly surrounding the Prince's Mansion in the middle.
Yang Zichen was shocked, he patted his head, and suddenly realized, "Oops...... I didn't think it was him! ”
Xiao Er once said that the people behind the scenes have a strong background, and who else has a stronger background than Prince Xuanyuan Qi's background!
Yang Zichen's pair of phoenix eyes became more and more provoked, and his eyebrows were covered with dark clouds.
"His Royal Highness King Hao, if it is really him, then the matter will be in trouble!"
Xuanyuan Hao squinted, a cold light flashed at the bottom of his eyes, he tightened his fingers, and his bones crunched.
"Without further ado, this king has to be on guard!" As he spoke, he came to Yang Zichen's side and spread out the map together.
"At present, the shops acquired by Xuanyuan Qi are quite controllable, and this king has to hurry up and hold the rest of the shops in his hands."
"Hmm...... Without further ado, indeed. Yang Zichen rolled up the map, his face slightly nervous.
Xuanyuan Hao raised his head, pinched his face and pinched the bridge of his nose, his face was full of sadness, "Zichen, you hurry up now, and quickly buy the rest of the shops in your name, be sure to catch up before Xuanyuan Qi moves." ”
"Good!" Yang Zichen nodded solemnly, he collected the map, hid into the night, and disappeared without a trace.
Soon, more than half of the shops in the capital were in the hands of Xuanyuan Qi and Xuanyuan Hao.
Yang Zichen found a confidant and capable person to serve as the shopkeeper of the newly acquired store.
A few days have passed, and there has been a commotion in the capital, and on the day when Shen Ruoxiao was idle in the palace, Shui Su hurriedly broke into her room.
"Miss, Miss, go out and have a look, the capital is going to change!"
"Changing the sky?" Shen Ruoxiao raised his eyebrows and pressed the panicked water soda, "What's the situation, you say it slowly." ”
Shui Su gasped heavily, and finally calmed down, she pulled Shen Ruoxiao and walked out.
"Miss, someone is buying stores in the capital, and most of the capital has changed their surnames."
Hearing this, Shen Ruoxiao looked nervous, and her hand holding Shui Su worked harder.
"Is there anyone eyeing our shop?"
"I haven't heard any news for the time being," Shui Su was a little pained and twisted twice, "Miss, why don't we go to the store and have a look!" ”
"Without further ado, let's go!" Shen Ruoxiao simply cleaned up and went out of the house with Shui Su.
Along the way, the shops in the capital are still located, but most of them have changed their plaques.
Shen Ruoxiao was curious, silently observing the new plaque of the store.
"Shui Su, it seems that most of these shops have been bought by two families!"
"Two families?" Shui Su was surprised and puzzled, "Miss, how can this be seen?" ”
Shen Ruoxiao hooked his thin lips, raised his hand lightly, and pointed to the red seal in the lower right corner of the new plaque.
"You see that there is no new plaque with a seal of this size, but there are two kinds of marks on the seal."
"Oh......" Shui Su looked at Shen Ruoxiao's fingers, like an empowerment, and suddenly realized, "Which two families are they, so rich!" ”
Shen Ruoxiao sneered, she waved her hand, shaking her head, "It's none of my business!" Let's go, go to our shop. ”
With that, she was handed over, her eyes swelling with undercurrents, and she walked quickly towards her shop.
It seems that the capital has not been stable for long, and the two forces are already ready to move.
Shen Ruoxiao knew in her heart, and after she let out a long sigh, she pretended to walk in front easily.
When he arrived at the door of the store, Shen Ruoxiao was slightly shocked, the door panel at the door that had lost paint was actually painted with vermilion at this moment.
She pushed the door open and walked in, looking around the shop all the way, the corners of her mouth hanging high involuntarily.
"It's a new look, it's good, it's good!"
At this time, Yu Bing, who was wiping the vase in the hall, suddenly raised his head and looked happy.
"Miss, are you here? Sit down! ”
Yu Bing welcomed Shen Ruoxiao over and sat down, and hurriedly greeted Yu Jie, "Hurry up, go and pour a cup of tea for Miss!" ”
"Okay!" Yiyun Chinese
Yujie nodded hurriedly, put down the rag in her hand, wiped it twice on the yellowed dress, and hurriedly entered the inner hall.
After her eyes wandered in the hall for a long time, Shen Ruoxiao's face was full of relief, and she took the teacup handed by Yujie.
"Yubing Yujie, Houde will go out with me in a while."
"Yes, Miss!"
Shen Ruoxiao nodded with a light smile, drank the tea in the cup, got up and patted the hem of her skirt.
"Let's go!"
Houde put down the broom in his hand, straightened his clothes, and hurriedly followed.
A group of people walked towards a ready-to-wear store.
Yu Jie hung her sleeves and followed behind Yu Bing, and she reached out and pulled the hem of Yu Bing's skirt.
"Sister, what did Miss bring us to this garment store for? Would you like us to help with the pick-up? ”
Yu Bing stretched out his hand and pressed it to Yu Jie's mouth, with a vigilant expression, "Shhh...... Don't speculate on Miss's thoughts, we just need to do what we are told. ”
Yu Jie was angry, and after making a grimace at Yu Bing, she obediently lowered her hand to the side.
After Shen Ruoxiao walked around the ready-to-wear shop, he picked out two sets of clothes with the same style and different colors.
"Yubing Yujie, come and see, do you like this suit?"
Yu Bing was stunned, her apricot eyes widened, and she looked at the clothes in Shen Ruoxiao's hand, looking puzzled.
"Miss, this shirt? It's for us ......."
"Uh-huh!"
Seeing Shen Ruoxiao nodding affirmatively, Yu Jie jumped up excitedly, and she grabbed Yu Bing.
"Sister, this is the clothes prepared for us, do you hear?"
She hurriedly approached Shen Ruoxiao, grabbed the pink dress, and couldn't put it down in a circle.
Yu Bing looked panicked, she held down the excited Yu Jie, forcibly took the dress in her hand, and handed it to Shen Ruoxiao in a regular manner.
"Miss, what do you mean by this, Sister Yubing is not very afraid, are you planning to miss Sister Yubing?"
As soon as these words came out, Yu Jie was stunned on the spot, and her hand raised in mid-air trembled slightly.
No, they didn't make any mistakes with their hard work!
She looked worried, two faint eyebrows were tightly locked, a pair of eyes were panicked, and she pulled Yu Bing's sleeve.
Yu Bing looked sideways and didn't say a word, just panicked, not daring to look directly at Shen Ruoxiao.
Seeing this, the corners of Shen Ruoxiao's eyes and eyebrows were immediately dyed with a bright smile.
"Who said I didn't want you anymore? Don't think too much about it, I just think that in the future, you can be regarded as supporting me for the façade, how can I do it without a few decent clothes? ”
Hearing this, Yu Bing was still frowning, but Yu Jie was happy, and she was dancing and pulling Shui Su's arm.
"Sister Shuisu, is this true? If you don't drive us away, will you buy us new clothes? ”
Shui Su pursed her lips and snickered, and her fingers gently pinched Yujie's face.
"Yes! We can't make people think that the workers of our Shen Kee restaurant are too poor and sour! ”
After speaking, Shen Ruoxiao gave Shui Su a thumbs up approvingly.
"That's what Shui Su said, you guys really think too much."
"But...... Miss, let's ......" Yu Bing was a little embarrassed, but she didn't know what to say, she just looked at Shen Ruoxiao gratefully.
Shen Ruoxiao pressed her shoulder and stuffed the shirt back into her hand.
"It's nothing, it's okay to do it in the future, and beat the name of our Shen Ji Restaurant."
Yu Bing nodded again and again, a pair of apricot eyes containing crystal teardrops.
"Miss Xie, we will live up to our expectations."
Shen Ruoxiao smiled and nodded, and stretched out his hand to edict the Houde Houcai behind him.
"You two go pick two pieces too!"
After looking at each other and smiling, Houde and Houcai bowed and saluted, and then picked up his own clothes.
After Houde Houcai also picked out his clothes, Shen Ruoxiao bought four sets in a row, which attracted the attention of the proprietress in the store.
The proprietress of the ready-to-wear store hurriedly greeted her and looked at Shen Ruoxiao flatteringly.
"Miss has a good eye, and she buys the most popular styles at the moment!"
Shen Ruoxiao pulled up a fake smile, wanting to pass by, "Boss, how much silver is this!" ”
"Just ten taels!" The proprietress smiled from ear to ear and looked up and down around Shen Ruoxiao.
"Miss has an extraordinary temperament, and she is so generous, the shop will give you a handkerchief!"
"Then there will be more bosses."
The proprietress took out a handkerchief embroidered with a carp leaping dragon gate from the counter and placed it on four ready-to-wear clothes.
"This handkerchief was embroidered by my own hands, and I hope Miss won't dislike it."
After some negotiations, Shen Ruoxiao finally became interested, and she looked at the person in front of her.
I saw that the proprietress was over forty years old, and she was still charming, and the years had not left many traces on her face, but looking at her actions, she was a clever person.
Suddenly, an inspiration rushed straight to Shen Ruoxiao's brain, and then she hooked the corners of her mouth.
If she had unified the clerk's outfit, would it look more professional? It's also a little more distinctive!
Thinking of this, she snapped her fingers and laughed.
"The hostess is very cheerful, I want to make a few more sets of clothes for you?"
