Chapter 102: The Jade Shop

Jiang Lingran spent two days sorting out the dowry and Jiang Ji's share of the real estate shop.

Compared with the ones they brought into the big room from the second room back then, these things are almost negligible now.

But these are said to be more than half of the Jiang family's official accounts.

Wan redundant accused them of secretly making false accounts and being cunning and shameless.

It is imperative to check the accounts and be fair.

Jiang Xian Mu counted the gold and silver expenses spent on raising Jiang Ji's brothers and sisters over the years and Jiang Lingran's dowry, and cried to Jiang Ji with the public account that could not make ends meet.

Wan redundant gritted his teeth, I don't know from afar, don't they know that Jiang Lingran's dowry was left by Meng Yuegu a long time ago? !

This time I took it out and said it, it was really for some yellow and white things, and I didn't even want to lose my face.

Jiang Ji thought about the nurturing feelings, and did not want to tear his face because of the separation of the family.

Now I don't want to be embarrassed by these things outside my body.

silently took what he had shared, and knelt down to say goodbye to Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Xianmu.

Although most of the shares are lost to the shops with empty shells, there is one of them, which is quite popular with Jiang Lingran.

Yutangchun on Siyu Street is engaged in a jade business.

Looking at the accounts of previous years, the operation is mediocre, and there is no loss or profit.

There are some stocks in the warehouse, but I don't know how many fine things can be used by her.

Jiang Lingran decided to take a look for himself.

closed the account book and asked Xiang Zhu: "Is my brother still in the front yard?" ”

Xiang Zhu said: "Childe and Uncle Wen went out together. ”

Jiang Lingran was a little surprised: "Where did you go?" Why don't you tell me. ”

Xiang Zhu smiled: "Childe said that you are slow to read the account book, so I won't interrupt you." ”

Jiang Lingran had nothing to refute.

Said helplessly: "Do you know where you went?" ”

Xiang Zhu shook his head and said, "Childe didn't say it." He guessed again: "But the prince went out with a generous gift, and I think he either went to the third master's house or went to the mansion of the ten thousand people." ”

Jiang Lingran frowned.

Third Uncle Jiang has already visited them last night, and Jiang Ji will not go again today.

Did you go to Wanjia?

But if you go to Wanjia, you should tell her to go together.

Xiang Zhu looked at her like this, and said, "The slave maid went to the front yard to ask, right?" Maybe Childe left a message in the front yard. ”

"I don't have anything here, let alone the front yard." Jiang Lingran said: "Leave him alone, pack up and let's go out of the house." ”

Xiang Zhu was surprised: "The girl is going out?" ”

When the carriage arrived at Siyu Street, Jiang Lingran opened the corner of the curtain, looked at it for a moment, shook his head and said: "Yutang Spring is here, it's no wonder that business can be booming." ”

The streets are lined with poor people dressed in simple clothes and even patches, and most of the shops on both sides are selling needles and cloth, rice and oil.

The people who come to this street want food and clothing, not the luxury of the house.

Xiang Zhu and Qingyu looked out of a window when they heard this, but they didn't understand what Jiang Lingran meant.

When the carriage arrived at Yutangchun and stopped, Jiang Lingran stood outside the shop and looked inside, and sure enough, it was deserted.

The three of them walked in and turned around the outer hall of the small shop, but they didn't see a single figure.

Xiang Zhu muttered, "Where has this person gone?" ”

Jiang Lingran's eyes wandered, and he saw a piece of sour branch wood paperweight with thin dust on the counter, and motioned for Xiangzhu to go.

Xiang Zhu pinched it up and slapped it twice on the counter.

"Bang" twice.

A rough shout suddenly sounded in the backyard: "Who! ”

Xiang Zhu heard it and slapped it twice.

"Who!" This time, there was irritation in his tone.

Immediately there was the sound of tapping and tapping.

After a while, a young man in Tsing Yi walked out with a small pot of fishy mutton soup, snorting and eating.

Jiang Lingran frowned.

Xiang Zhu also frowned and said, "What about your shopkeeper!" ”

The young man shook his eyes when he heard the sound.

What I saw was not a small-headed man in coarse linen, but three brightly dressed and extraordinary-looking girls!

"Hiccup" burped, put the small rice bowl on the cabinet behind him, wiped his mouth, and smiled earnestly: "What do the girls want to buy?" ”

Xiang Zhu still said the same sentence: "You shopkeepers!" ”

The young man's eyes rolled and he looked at the three of them.

When you come to the shop, you don't look at the goods, as long as you look for the shopkeeper, what does this mean?

Xiang Zhu blocked Jiang Lingran behind him, raised his eyebrows and reprimanded: "Presumptuous! ”

The young man was a little stunned by this unfamiliar word.

After being stunned for a moment, he replied to the Shen'er and said angrily: "Who are you! ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the plain-clothed girl who was blocked behind him, and hummed: "Are there any rules for shouting in other people's shops?" ”

Xiang Zhu was beaten upside down, and he was not angry, and just about to speak, he pressed a hand on his shoulder.

She shut her mouth and took a step back.

Jiang Lingran looked at the young man and said softly: "I'm Jiang Si, I'll find your shopkeeper to see me immediately!" ”

The young man twisted his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and suddenly understood that the person in front of him was their new owner.

Frightened, his face turned white, and he hurriedly walked out from behind the counter, lowered his head and said, "The little one doesn't know if it's the fourth girl, how much offended, how offended." ”

Xiang Zhu said coldly: "Why don't you go find the shopkeeper soon!" ”

This time the young man didn't dare to say any more, so he answered the chord and trotted away.

I don't know where to find it, but in a quarter of an hour, a middle-aged man in a royal blue satin jacket, with a big belly and a bright face, walked in.

Seeing the plain-clothed girl sitting on the chair under the window, a smile suddenly appeared on his anxious face, and he stepped forward a few steps, waved his hand and said, "I've seen the four girls." ”

Jiang Lingran looked up at him and said, "You are the shopkeeper of Yutangchun." ”

The tone is cool and cool, without half a point of emotional fluctuations, and with her expressionless face, it makes people feel a sense of oppression that they dare not treat at will.

Wiping the sweat from his head, the man nodded and said respectfully: "The little one's surname is He." ”

Jiang Lingran nodded and stood up, and said, "Shopkeeper He, lead the way to the warehouse." ”

Shopkeeper He realized that Jiang Lingran was here to check the account inventory, and he was even more panicked for a while.

but did not dare to disobey her.

Accompanied by caution, he said: "Four girls, please come with the little one." As he spoke, he led her to the backyard.

The storehouse is nothing more than a small low room with peeling walls.

Shopkeeper He opened the rusty lock, pushed the door open, and suddenly a musty smell came to his face.

He looked at Jiang Lingran with some trepidation and explained: "These days are really a bit humid, just wait until spring begins." ”

Jiang Lingran didn't speak, and walked in.

There are a few pieces of jade and silver scattered on the two sets of shelves, but they are all ordinary things that cannot be more ordinary.

His eyes were on a few large wooden boxes in the corner, and he asked the shopkeeper, "What is that?" ”

The shopkeeper He said: "It is also the inventory in the shop." As he spoke, he stepped forward and opened the box.

Although it is finer than the appearance on the shelf, it can't get into Jiang Lingran's eyes after all.

She was a little disappointed, but when she thought that this was a big house for their brothers and sisters, she couldn't help but laugh at herself for having undeserved extravagant hopes.
