"Eh, you dead boy!" The middle-aged man bowed and stared at his son, his expression so distressed.

Young Master You Xuanyi was a little impatient, "Father, it's 160 taels, and I don't give them much, doesn't it mean that they have other prescriptions in their hands, these 160 taels are conditional, and their prescriptions are only allowed to be provided to us, not sold to other families." ”

"It's still this big brother who is refreshing." Sister Qiu said with a smile, and in an instant, this awkward and arrogant young master was much more pleasing to the eye, he was young and had the courage to give money. Listening to 160 taels, she felt a burst of ecstasy in her heart, desperately pinching the palm of her hand, not to show her expression too much, this is the first huge amount of money she has earned since she came here, and the palms of her healed hands are all sweating.

Since his son has said this, the middle-aged man is not good at saying anything, so he asked the guy to take a pen and paper, and asked Sister Qiu to write a prescription for the food, and he wrote a contract here, and asked the guy to go to the account room and pay 160 taels of silver.

Sister Qiu thought that she wrote the brush words like a dog * crawling, and the task of writing the prescription was handed over to Zhang Ruoxu, who wrote the best among them.

The contract on the middle-aged man's side has also been established, but the buyer and seller are both there, but there are fewer Chinese. Sister Qiu is not familiar with Huyang's life, and no one she knows at all can be the person in this contract, and she is not at ease if she asks the boss of Liufanglou to find someone in the contract.

"What then?" The Great Seal asked.

Sister Qiu thought for a while, "Let's go find Young Master Zhou's relatives, I heard him say that he is visiting his uncle today, and ask his uncle to be a Chinese person for us." When Zhu Pingshan left, he was afraid that they would have something urgent to find him, and he also left the address of his uncle's house.

Lin nodded on time, "This is also an idea, let's buy some gifts and go to the door, if he is not happy, let's think of other ways." ”

Sister Qiu told the boss of Liufanglou about her own thoughts, originally thinking that they could go to find Zhu Pingshan's uncle by themselves, but the boss had another idea, not to mention that a few children did not know the way in Huyang, afraid that they would not be able to find the place, so they insisted on asking the two guys to lead the way for Sister Qiu and a few people.

In fact, he was not very emotional when he saw Sister Qiu and a few people listening to the 160 taels of silver, and he felt that they were not very satisfied with the price, and he saw a few people getting together and muttering for a long time, afraid that they would run away under the pretext of looking for the middle man, and the prescription for boiling river fish would fall into the hands of other taverns, but it would be bad.

Sister Qiu could probably guess what he was thinking, since she was determined to sell this prescription, she didn't think about selling it again, just since someone was willing to be a guide to lead the way, she was also happy.

On the street, under the guidance of the guys, Sister Qiu found a pastry shop that looked quite high-level, weighed 100 copper plate pastries, and several people carried them to Zhu Pingshan's uncle's house.

Zhu Pingshan said that his uncle was a scholar, surnamed Wang, and his family had hundreds of acres of good land, and there was a brocade shop and a paper and pen shop in Huyang City.

Grandpa Wang's home is in a quiet alley in the west of Huyang City, with a red lacquered gate, and there are two small stone-carved lions by the door.

"It's really you!" Zhu Pingshan was surprised and delighted, "When I heard the porter talk, I was also shocked. ”

Sister Qiu smiled and said, "I didn't want to bother you and Grandpa Wang, but we really don't know anyone in Huyang." As he spoke, he handed the pastry bag in his hand to Zhu Pingshan, "This is for Grandpa Wang's family." ”

"Hey, what are you doing like that!" Zhu Pingshan said with a smile, after thinking about it, he still took a little heart, if Sister Qiu was sent to the Zhou family, he would definitely not be able to accept it, but this is to beg his uncle to do something, or to send it better, looking at the paper that wrapped the pastries, Zhu Pingshan smiled and said: "It's the pastries of Zhenbao Zhai, good things!" My cousin and cousin liked the pastries of this shop the most. ”

Sister Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "You're fine." She was also afraid that Grandpa Wang's family would be wealthy and look down on the pastries they bought in the roadside shop.

A few people were not familiar with Grandpa Wang, and they didn't enter Grandpa Wang's house, so they waited by the door, and after Zhu Pingshan entered, in less than a moment, he walked out with a middle-aged fat dun one after another.

The middle-aged fat man is about forty, with his hands behind his back, wearing a dark red cotton robe, a smiling face, a beer belly, and a white and fat dry food that has just come out of the steamer.

"You're Hirayama's friends?" Grandpa Wang looked at Lin Zhun and Zhang Ruoxu with a smile and asked, the two boys all looked good, one was steady and kind, and the other was beautiful and gentle.

The two of them brushed together to salute the prince, and after a few greetings, the guys led a few people to the Liufang Building.

However, after meeting with the boss of Liufanglou, Grandpa Wang and the boss all laughed, one called each other cousin, and the other called each other cousin. Zhu Pingshan is also confused, after the explanation of Grandpa Wang, Liufanglou is also the property of the Wang family, Boss Wang is his cousin who came out of the five suits, but Grandpa Wang also met to know, in the end it is too far away, only in the annual family sacrifice to see one, look at the face familiar, he studied at home to practice calligraphy, rarely pay attention to external things, to know today.

"This Wang family...... Is it the Wang family? Sister Qiu quietly touched Zhu Pingshan and asked.

Zhu Pingshan nodded, "In the entire Huyang, the Wang family is the largest family, with more than a thousand children, and five or six out of ten industries in the city are all from the Wang family." Not only Huyang, but also Jinzhou in the south, and the provincial capital in the north all have side branches of the Wang family. Seeing Sister Qiu's thoughtful look, Zhu Pingshan said softly: "The Wang family you went to is the descendant of the Wang family in Huyang, and the young master is the young master of the Wang family's long house, the seventh in the preface." ”

Sister Qiu thought about the young master who didn't learn well and wanted to frown, fortunately, the young master of the Wang family is not all of this virtue, look at the young master of the oil Xuanyi, although he is a little arrogant and naïve, but he is not as disgusting as the seventh young master of Wang.

Although Grandpa Wang and Boss Wang are considered a family, they are too far away, and in terms of intimacy, Grandpa Wang must be on the side of Zhu Pingshan, very fast, the contract of sale and purchase will be written, Sister Qiu used a brush to write down her name as neatly as possible, and pressed her handprint with bright red ink.

On the side, Boss Wang gave Sister Qiu a copy of the contract in triplicate, and gave a copy to the Chinese grandfather Wang, and ordered the guy to carry 160 taels of silver.

In Daxing, 16 taels is a city catty, Sister Qiu is tired of conversion, and she uses 10 taels for a city catty when she keeps accounts. The silver coins that the guy carried up in the box at this time totaled 10 catties, and 1 tael of silver coins was equal to 1,000 copper coins, but if it was exchanged at the bank, 1 tael of silver coins could only be exchanged for 970 copper coins.

After opening the box, Sister Qiu asked Zhang Yuxiu and Zhang Ruoxu to check the silver money, she heard that many black-hearted shops use silver coins mixed with lead and iron to pass off as sterling silver, or old oxidized silver coins to charge back. Before the death of the Zhang family's aunt, the Zhang family's life was very good, Zhang Yuxiu and Zhang Ruoxu had also seen real money, and they had some judgment in this regard.

In fact, there is no need for the two of them to go to see it, Sister Qiu, a layman, can also see that the silver in the box is in good condition, and it is expected to be seen on the face of the prince.

After inspecting the silver coin, Boss Wang praised with a smile: "The little lady is really careful!" ”

Sister Qiu smiled and asked, "Boss Wang, how much is the banquet for ten people in your Liufang Building?" ”

Boss Wang didn't know what she wanted to do, so he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "For an ordinary banquet, ten dishes will not exceed two taels of silver." Sister Qiu took out a small piece of silver from the box, about two or two, handed it to Boss Wang, and said with a smile: "Boss Wang, it's almost noon, we will invite you to have dinner with Grandpa Wang here in the Liufang Building!" ”

However, to Sister Qiu's surprise, Boss Wang set up two tables of wine feasts, one table had him and his son accompany Grandpa Wang to eat and taste wine, and the other table asked Zhu Pingshan to take Sister Qiu's children to eat.

The guys led Sister Qiu and them to the sixth floor of the Hexagonal Building, standing upstairs with fine and dense bamboo curtains, the style of the entire Huyang City was in full view, and several children didn't care about eating, and they all stood by the window to watch the scenery.

"Look, that's the ancient canal that Brother Zhou talked about!" The Great Seal pointed to the north and preached.

A few people looked over, and if it was really a wide river, Zhu Pingshan said with a smile: "The riverside wharf is lively, it's a pity that it's not free today, I can't see it, let's see it another day." ”

"This canal is still in use?" Sister Qiu asked, didn't she say the ancient canal, she still felt that the river was silted up and abandoned.

Zhu Pingshan nodded, "It's still in use, it's just that the river in the north is silted up by the imperial capital, and it can still be used in the south, that is, with this canal, Huyang is more prosperous than Jinzhou in the south, and the provincial capital in the north." ”

Sister Qiu looked at it with a smile, and realized the difficulty of climbing high and looking far away in ancient times. She didn't think about it, when she first entered Huyang City, she was determined to come to Liufanglou to eat when she had money, and she ate it so quickly.

After a while, the guy quickly served ten dishes, and respectfully invited Sister Qiu and a few people to eat.

The dishes are meat and vegetarian, there are boiled chicken, etc., and there is a roast venison specially introduced by the guys, and when it is served, the bright red venison is still steaming.

A few people eat very happily, Sister Qiu is the first time to eat the dishes in the tavern, and the heart is gloomy compared with the dishes made by herself, the conclusion is naturally that each has its own merits, she is better in the novelty of the dishes, but the tavern is not in vain, just this sauce beef, tender and tender melt in the mouth, Sister Qiu thinks that she can't make it.

"I didn't expect you to cook!" During the meal, Zhu Pingshan smiled at Sister Qiu and said, "It's so good!" ”

Dayin looked at the eldest brother who lowered his head to eat the dishes, and sometimes served the vegetables to Sister Qiu, and said loudly: "Sister Qiu not only knows how to cook this one dish, we often eat her dishes!" ”

Dayin had already realized that Sister Qiu belonged to his eldest brother, and it was also their Jiang family, and it was obvious that his eldest brother didn't like this surnamed Zhou to talk to Sister Qiu.

Zhang Yuxiu also interjected with a smile, "I think that Boss Wang is a sour and stingy person, I didn't expect him to be so generous, and he invited us to dinner." ”
