Chapter 168: Unexpected
Shao Yi hesitated again and again, but finally decided to talk to Xia Yanqing about this matter.
Because what he said this time was related to King Chengjun, he did not ask Xia Zitang to accompany him this time, but asked people to inquire about Xia Yanqing when he was in the Grange, he looked for space and took Xiuyuan to Zhuangzi.
At this time, it has been ten days since the greenhouse was planted, and the long leaves of the vegetable seedlings have been stretched. In this season when the loess is everywhere and there is not a single green leaf in sight, these vegetable seedlings are really verdant.
Xia Yanqing looked at the vegetable patches with small puddles, and all he thought about was stir-fried cabbage, garlic chrysanthemum, camellia stuffed dumplings and other dishes.
Just when he was salivating and salivating, Hong Dagui came in to report that a young man surnamed Shao had come to Zhuangzi to see his aunt and grandmother.
At the end, he also added: "Xiao Jue, this is the famous first gentleman in the capital." ”
After speaking, his eyes were full of determination waiting for Xia Yanqing's reaction.
Although it was the first gentleman, if his aunt and grandmother didn't want to see him, then he couldn't open the door for him, and even he could try to beat the first gentleman out of the capital.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that her aunt and grandmother only paused for a moment, and then said, "Let him come in, I'll wait for him in the main courtyard." ”
Hong Dagui was surprised, but he didn't delay and took the order.
The main courtyard of Zhuangzi is a small courtyard, with three main rooms, with two wing rooms in the east and west.
This courtyard is usually empty, and occasionally the housekeeper of the Xia family comes to inspect and will rest here.
This year, because of the construction of the greenhouse, Xia Yanqing frequently came here to see the growth of vegetables in the greenhouse.
In addition, an elderly couple from Zhuangzi was also arranged to be responsible for guarding the door and doing daily cleaning.
Hong Dagui brought Shao Yi's master and servant in, Xiuyuan stayed at the gate of the courtyard, and Shao Yi entered by himself.
Xinxiu waited at the door, curtsied, pushed open the door and welcomed him in.
Although Shao Yi had something in his heart, after a month, when he saw Xia Yanqing again, his heart still couldn't help beating a few times.
In the house, Xinrong and Xinxiu were holding tea and snacks, Xia Yanqing pondered about it, and still gave Shao Yi a salute, "Shao Gongzi is here, there is a loss of welcome, and if you are rude, you still look at Shao Gongzi Haihan." ”
This is the first time she has faced a foreign man alone when she came to this world, and in this case, the rules don't seem to talk about what should be.
Because according to the rules, she is a single woman, and even a divorced woman, she really shouldn't meet a foreign man.
It's just that during the days when she and Shao Yi came into contact, although this guy has a reputation for being a gentleman, he is only a little impulsive when he competes with others, and he usually looks at it, and he is still quite measured
If you take the liberty of asking for a meeting like this, you may have something important.
Seeing that she was so entangled and still saying nondescript words, Shao Yi's heavy heart suddenly loosened a little, and he even wanted to laugh.
"Miss Xia is polite, she is reckless. There is really something important to say to Miss Xia, so I have to take the liberty to ask for a meeting. ”
Xia Yanqing: "Oh? With a sigh, she was not mistaken, and there was something important.
"This ......" Shao Yi paused, and then looked at Xia Yanqing's heart and heart without falling behind.
He can't say it in front of these two girls.
“…… Or, Miss Xia, let's go outside and talk, there are some things that we have to explain to Miss Xia alone. ”
Xia Yanqing blinked subconsciously, a little stunned.
She doesn't seem to know him that well, does she? If there is anything to say, it needs to be said by the two of them alone, and he didn't even call Xia Zitang to come together.
Shao Yi's tone was a little pleading: "It's really important, it's really inconvenient for others to hear it." ”
"Okay, let's go, go to the open space outside the yard." As a working woman thousands of years later, she can still see this thing.
Shao Yi felt relieved, but at the same time he was very pleased. Sure enough, it was Ah Can, who he was familiar with, and in important matters, she just couldn't care about the boring constraints of men and women.
In the open space outside, Xinrong, Xinxiu and Hong Dagui stood far away, looking at the two people in the distance with good eyes.
Shao Yi said to Xia Yanqing, who was two steps away: "I have a few subordinates, and a few days ago I found out that a few people in the Chengjun Wangfu came into contact with five people in the glass workshop, and it seems that in the end, a craftsman and two guys made a deal with them. ”
Xia Yanqing: "Chengjun Palace? ”
Shao Yi: "That's right, it's from the Chengjun Palace." ”
Xia Yanqing frowned.
The reason why she frowned was not because the person who stole the glass was from the Chengjun Palace, but because of Shao Yi, how could he know the movements of the Chengjun Palace?
She suppressed the doubts in her heart, nodded, and said: "Okay, according to what we said before, Shao Gongzi is responsible for getting the evidence that these three people sold the technology of the glass workshop, and when the others come forward together, we will deal with it together." ”
Shao Yi shook his head, "That's not what I'm talking about, after the people from the Chengjun Wangfu completed the transaction, they almost didn't pause, and immediately packed their bags and set off for the south." ”
"Huh? Are they going to the South to make glass? Xia Yanqing instantly understood, this was really unexpected by her.
If so...... How else does she play with people? People make money in the south, even if her glass is made well, no matter how bad the other party is, thousands of miles away, people can still make a lot of money without being affected.
Sure enough, she is a migrant worker from another world, and she falls in this ancient time when transportation and information are extremely underdeveloped, and she is very unimaginative?
"Does Young Master Shao know where they went?" After asking this sentence, Xia Yanqing regretted it a little.
Even if you keep an eye on someone in the capital or in the surrounding area, this kind of long-distance tracking not only consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, but may also worry about your life.
Her words were a little too reasonable.
"This, I just asked casually, Shao Gongzi doesn't have to care...... Hehehe. Xia Yanqing explained awkwardly.
Xia Zitang has a wide range of friends, if it really doesn't work, let Xia Zitang find someone to try.
Anyway, she has money in her hand now, and after two or three months, after thinking that the glass in the south can almost be burned, she will give five hundred taels of silver to each person, and then let them go to the south to find out where there is glass. It's also easier to probe and less obtrusive.
It was about the business of his daughter-in-law, and Shao Yi didn't feel that Xia Yanqing's question was too much.
He said: "They should have gone to Tangzhou, where the Chengjun Wang's mother clan is located, and there is a Liu Dafu who has something to do with the Chengjun Wang, who is very talented in business, and is now running there." I think that King Chengjun will definitely hand over the glass business to Liu Dafu to run. ”
Xia Yanqing's eyebrows skipped a beat, Shao Yi's understanding of King Chengjun was a little terrifying.
As for the glass business, if Tangzhou is the location of the royal mother family of Chengjun, she wants to argue with this Liu Dafu in Tangzhou, and it seems that it is not very good.
As the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that there are people in the capital, not a land head snake who bluffs people casually.
