Jiyun smiled sideways to avoid not being courteous to him, and hurriedly returned the salute respectfully: "It's the slave who didn't make it clear." That is the master of the slave. ”

"Oh?"

Jiyun turned around and helped Qin Yining to the side door.

The big shopkeeper also saw Qin Yining's appearance clearly, remembering the sentence "fairy-like young woman" described in the letter from the owner some time ago, he suddenly realized for a while, saluted respectfully, and then lowered his voice and said, "Are you the princess of Zhongshun?" ”

Qin Yining raised his eyebrows, "Do you recognize me?" ”

"No, no, no, the villain has never known you in your life, but when I wrote to the owner a few days ago, I mentioned that the Prince and Princess Zhongshun were about to arrive soon. He also instructed the villain to obey your orders in everything, the villain's surname is Yin, his name is Wuzhi, and in the future, please ask the princess to do her best. ”

"The shopkeeper of Yinda is too polite." Qin Yining couldn't help but sigh at Qiu Feishan's intelligence and arrangement.

It seems that she is still quite concerned about the affairs of Xiao Xiao now, thinking that Mu Jinghu and Xiao Xiao are advancing and retreating together, Qiu Feishan will not ignore Xiao Xiao's troubles for the sake of Mu Jinghu, right?

However, Qiu Feishan arranged everything properly, which really saved her a lot of tongue.

The shopkeeper of Yinda respectfully invited Qin Yining into the door, and the group went directly to the main hall of the back house along the verandah.

"You may be seated."

"You may also be seated."

The two sides politely sat down according to their identities, and Qin Yining said with a smile: "Is this time going well?" ”

If it weren't for Qiu Feishan's instructions, the shopkeeper of Yin Da would only feel that Qin Yining was too much in charge of an outsider.

But thinking about Qin Yining's identity and Qiu Feishan's attitude, the shopkeeper of Yinda has already concluded that Qiu Feishan must have taken refuge in the prince, and with the big tree of Prince Zhongshun in the future, it will be easier to do what Sitong has done.

Where do ordinary ordinary people like them have the opportunity to contact the dignitaries and nobles above? Now that they have this relationship, there will only be benefits to them in the future.

The opportunity to talk to Qin Yining now is simply too rare for him.

"Back to the princess." The shopkeeper of Yinda said respectfully, "Thanks to you and the prince's blessing, the Sitong number has been going smoothly for a while, and the local branch has been developing smoothly, although the business is not as good as the big towns, but it is not bad." ”

"That's good." Qin Yining said with a smile, "The prince is going to come here to take office in a while, and our family estimates that we will have to settle in Huichuan County for a long time, and I am afraid that we will have to work more to take care of the big shopkeeper at that time." ”

"Where, you just have to give orders, such politeness is really frustrating for the villain."

Seeing that Qin Yining was polite and polite, without the slightest arrogance of the superiors, the shopkeeper couldn't help but feel ironed, but the princess paid attention to etiquette, and he would not be really arrogant enough to feel that he could listen to this kind words with peace of mind.

The shopkeeper of Yinda stood up, saluted with sincere fear, bowed and said: "If the princess and the prince have anything to do in the future, they will just give orders, and the villain will definitely do his best to go to the soup and fire." ”

Qin Yining smiled and nodded.

At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in the mind of the shopkeeper of Yinda, and he suddenly said: "Princess, in fact, there is still a difficult thing these days. ”

Qin Yining raised his eyebrows: "What?" ”

The shopkeeper of Yinda groaned slightly, and said: "That's the case, Huichuan County has not been peaceful recently, and a group of people from the rivers and lakes have come from nowhere...... Hero. Recently, I was visiting large households in Huichuan County and the surrounding areas one by one, and borrowed money from large households on the grounds that they lacked capital to do business. You know, they're asking for money. Where is the day of return. ”

Qin Yining's heart jumped when he heard this, and he immediately remembered Guan Dahu's group.

"What are these guys like? How many people are there? How do you act? ”

Seeing that Qin Yining asked carefully, and did not mean perfunctory, the shopkeeper of Yinda secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said busily, "There are almost five or six people in that group, they haven't come to our house yet, and the number of people each time is not the same, that's about it." It's just that these heroes are all equipped with kung fu, and when they arrive at the homes of large people, they also pay attention to 'courtesy before soldiers', indicating that they need silver to do business, so they begin to exert some hard work on the spot. And then stalk and ask for money.

"Generally, no one wants to get into trouble with this kind of difficult guy, they all think that more is better than less, and almost all of them give silver, and there are ten taels or dozens of taels of rewards, but this group of people seems to be unwilling, and some of the rewards are not as good as their hearts, so they go to others."

Qin Yining nodded and said, "So you're a little worried that they'll come to Sitong to ask for silver?" ”

The shopkeeper nodded and sighed, "Not really." You also know that our Sitong number tree is very popular, and I am afraid that I will not be able to send these people away with dozens of taels of silver at that time. I'm afraid that it will cause trouble. ”

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper of Yinda smiled a little shyly, "There must be a lot of personal soldiers around the prince, if there is really something, please take care of the princess." ”

Qin Yining smiled and bowed: "This is natural, my relationship with Boss Qiu is there, she is not there, I naturally have to take care of Sitong." ”

The shopkeeper of Yinda suddenly had a sense of superiority with his back against the big tree to enjoy the shade, and said with a smile: "Thank you, princess." ”

The two chatted happily for a while, and suddenly a young man in front of them talked back and forth, speaking as fast as pouring beans.

"The big shopkeeper, there are a few people in front, and they don't mention what kind of business they do, nor do they buy things, but they are here to see you, I look at them like that, how do you look like the famous 'heroes' in Huichuan County recently."

The young man's expression was a little panicked, after all, they were all ordinary businessmen, and they just wanted to earn food in peace, and they really didn't want to get into trouble.

The shopkeeper of Yinda looked at Qin Yining, "Princess, look ......?"

Qin Yining thought for a while and said, "You go and meet them to see what they want, and you can also follow the example of other big local families and send ten taels first." If they don't agree, you can come back to me again. ”

"Whoa!" The shopkeeper of Yinda hurriedly responded, With Qin Yining's instructions, he had the backbone and quickened his pace to move forward.

Qin Yining, Bingtang and Jiyun stayed in the hall of the back house to eat tea, waiting for the news ahead.

After about two pillars of incense, the shopkeeper of Yinda came back wiping his sweat.

"Princess, the villain gave them fifty taels, they still feel dissatisfied, said to do a big business, if you can get investment, you can buy shares, the villain said that he is just a small shopkeeper, can not be the master, they began to mess around, have to see our four links of the owner. He also said that Sitong has a big business, and he doesn't want his business to be smashed. ”

Sweat slid down from the corners of his forehead, and the shopkeeper Yin Da hurriedly wiped it off with the back of his hand, "Princess, what do you do about this situation?" ”

Qin Yining held his chin and thought for a while, and asked, "What do those people who came look like?" The person in the lead, is not very hoarse when he speaks? ”

"Yes, the princess knows about him?" The shopkeeper of Yinda was a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask, and then regretted his quick mouth, and remedied, "The villain doesn't mean anything else, it's just surprise." ”

"I understand." Qin Yining said with a smile.

The shopkeeper of Yinda said: "There are five people who came, each of them is tall and big, and the leader is dressed like a scribe, and his voice is very hoarse, and his eyes are very sharp, which makes people feel uncomfortable when they look at it." ”

Qin Yining couldn't help but stand up and paced thoughtfully.

It seems that the people in charge of Dahu are in a hurry to prepare the silver.

They are in a hurry to ask for silver, what to do?

Going to Lu's house to buy the official's silver is tantamount to a waste, and I don't know when Lu Zheng's side will be able to get a refund, they are in a hurry to get the silver now, it must also be related to the treasure.

Qin Yining thought about it, but could only think that Guan Dahu wanted to raise money so that he could hire someone to rob the stone.

If that's it, they'll have a lot of money.

After all, the stone of the emperor's mausoleum, even if it is a stone, someone dares to make up his mind, and it is a capital crime to kill his head if he is caught by the imperial court. If they want to hire people to do such dangerous things, they naturally have to invest enough money, otherwise who would dare to live and die with them?

Thinking of this key, Qin Yining gradually had a plan in his mind.

Seeing that Qin Yining was silent, the shopkeeper of Yinda asked hesitantly: "Princess, ......do you see this matter?"

Qin Yining thought for a while and said, "I already have a way to do this, you go and tell them that at this time tomorrow, let them come here, and say that Boss Qiu of Sitong will see them in person." ”

"Princess? Boss Qiu, she ......"

Qin Yining smiled, "You just have to say that." I've got my own plans. If they still refuse to leave, you can tell them that our business has been landed everywhere, and the shop will not run away with its own legs. If they want to invest in business, they naturally need a large amount of silver, and they can only negotiate with the owner to achieve results. ”

The shopkeeper of Yinda was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't imagine that the princess was such a flawless person who told nonsense.

However, since the proprietor said in the letter that he would listen to the princess's orders, the shopkeeper of Yinda was naturally happy not to have to come out on his own, and even nodded and went out to deal with it.

After a while, the shopkeeper of Yinda came back refreshed and said, "Princess, they are gone, and they will come again." ”

"Hmm." Qin Yining turned around and instructed Jiyun, "You go out quietly and let Tang Xiu take a closer look to see if there are any eyes around." When the eyes are gone, let's go back. ”

"Yes." Jiyun bowed his head, picked up the oil-paper umbrella standing by the wall, put on clogs under the porch, and walked out quickly.

The shopkeeper of Yinda was stunned: "Princess, are you worried that the group of heroes did not leave?" ”

Qin Yining bowed his head and said, "It's okay to be cautious. ”

The shopkeeper of Yinda felt cold sweat on his forehead for a while.

It's not a pleasant experience to be stared at, if you don't know, it's just that, and now that you have doubts, you really have to mention it.
