"I ......" Xia Yan said dumbly, she couldn't tell Xia Huai that she was twenty-eight years old, she knew more than you little kids.

"You see, you don't know." Xia Huai touched Xia Yan's head, "Brother, I have already thoroughly inspected him, except that he doesn't like to talk, there are no shortcomings, you can rest assured." ”

Xia Yan really couldn't complain, so he could only change the topic, "But I have to wait until I am twenty years old before getting married." ”

"Twenty! No, no, look at Xia Weiwei, she is eighteen years old and has not yet married and is in a hurry, and the people in the village laugh at her behind her back for being an old girl. Brother doesn't want anyone to laugh at you. ”

Xia Yan shook Xia Huai's arm and said coquettishly in a soft voice: "I don't care what others think, I just want to accompany you and my mother." ”

Half of Xia Huai's body was numb after being shaken, he thought about it, and felt that it would be good for his sister to accompany them at home.

As for the people in the village watching jokes, Xia Huai sneered, whoever dared to say that his sister was not, he immediately knocked on the door.

And that kid, if he really likes Yan'er, why not let him wait a few more years.

Time passed quietly when the brother and sister were discussing Xia Yan's lifelong events, and before they knew it, they came to the door of Ruyi Zhai.

Fu Duozhi had been waiting here for a long time, Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and he could finally end this embarrassing topic.

"Miss Yan'er, it's hard work." Looking at the cart full of radishes, Fu Duozhi touched his beard with satisfaction.

"Uncle Fu, this is a hundred catties of radishes as promised before, don't forget to send someone to my house to pull the rest in three days." Xia Yan handed the paper with his address written on it to Fu Duozhi, "My brother and I will pick them up at the intersection in three days." ”

"Okay." Fu Duo agreed, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that Xia Yan was pleasing to the eye, as kind as his own child.

"Miss Yan'er is really trustworthy, I finally didn't see the wrong person."

Fu Duozhi patted Xia Yan on the shoulder and encouraged: "Listen to the above meaning, if the sales of radishes in the county town are good this time, they are ready to buy them in large quantities and promote them to Ruyi Zhai across the country." Miss Yan'er, you have to prepare in advance. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Fu, for reminding me." Xia Yan blessed his body, and asked with some curiosity: "I wanted to ask before, is Ruyi Zhai a national chain?" ”

Hearing Xia Yan's question, Fu Duozhi immediately came to his senses, suddenly held his head high, and nodded proudly: "That's natural." I didn't expect Miss Yan'er that you knew the word national chain at a young age. It seems that Miss Yan'er is also a business wizard. ”

"Also?"

"The old man always thought that only the second young master of my family knew this word, but I didn't expect it. Sure enough, heroes have been born since ancient times, and we old guys are about to be caught up by you little heroes. ”

Fu Duozhi sighed, "Hey, it's old, it's old." ”

"Then your second young master must be very powerful." Xia praised from the bottom of his heart.

She's not a wizard, it's just that it's not uncommon to see nationwide chain industries on Earth, so she knows that there's nothing unusual about the term.

But this second young master of Ruyi Zhai is different.

After coming here for a few months, Xia Yan has come to realize that this is a country that is extremely backward in agriculture and commerce.

Many of the plants that are commonly found on earth are not found here, and there are no vegetables to eat in winter.

When you go to the market in winter, you can only buy rice, flour and meat.

These things are so expensive that it is impossible for ordinary people to eat them every day.

Not to mention those vegetables that grow in winter, they are simply sky-high, and only rich and noble families can afford them.

In the fall, ordinary people will pickle a jar full of pickles, with some brown rice, barely enough for a meal.

But eating the same pickles every winter will inevitably get tired, and eating too much of this stuff hurts the stomach.

When winter comes, the lives of ordinary people are particularly difficult.

The backwardness of agriculture has led to the lack of development of commerce, so Xia Yan was really surprised that the second young master of Ruyi Zhai could know this.

"He must have a particularly powerful gentleman, a famous teacher and a high apprentice."

Fu Duozhi shook his head, and his waist straightened even more, "The second young master of my family is a rare business genius in the world, he was born to know it, and he has no teacher. At the age of eleven, he took over the Chamber of Commerce that was on the verge of closing, and it took only two years to bring the Chamber of Commerce back to life. ”

Hearing this, Xia Yan suddenly had an idea: Could it be that this second young master also crossed over?

She asked tentatively, "Is there anything strange about your second young master?" For example, when you encounter an unexpected accident, you suddenly lose your memory and your temperament changes? ”

"I haven't heard of it." Fu Duozhi was a little puzzled, and he didn't know why Xia Yan asked this question, "Miss Yan'er, what does this mean?" ”

"Ahh It is...... It's just that people who have heard people say that people who have suffered major changes are smarter. I'm just asking casually, Uncle Fu, don't mind. Xia Yan was suddenly asked like this, and made up a reason with some embarrassment.

"Hahaha." Fu Duozhi was amused by Xia Yan's embarrassed appearance, he stroked his beard and smiled: "Tong Yan Wuji, Tong Yan Wu Ji." The second young master of my family didn't become smart when he encountered an accident, but he can never forget it since he was a child. ”

Xia Yan smiled awkwardly and changed the topic: "Then his father must be very happy that he has such a powerful heir." ”

"Hey." Speaking of this, Fu Duozhi said with some loss: "The people of the entire Chamber of Commerce hope that the next president will be the second young master. But it's a pity that the second young master is only the illegitimate son of the president, and the biological mother is unknown, and he has no inheritance rights. Therefore, this chamber of commerce can only be the eldest young master or the third young master in the future. ”

"Then he took so much painstaking effort, didn't he make a wedding dress for others, and he was willing?"

"This is also what makes the second young master admire." Fu Duozhi's eyes were full of appreciation, "He has no intention of competing with several brothers for the chairmanship, everything he is doing now is to repay the president's kindness." Only by making the Chamber of Commerce develop better, his brothers can take over the Chamber of Commerce more smoothly in the future, and the president can also be more worry-free. ”

"Won't he take power in the future?" Xia Yan was puzzled, there were still such indisputable people in this world.

"No, it won't." Fu Duo said affirmatively: "Before the second young master took over the Chamber of Commerce, he had signed an agreement with the president that he would never fight for the inheritance, so they were relieved to let the second young master preside over the overall situation." ”

"Is he really that selfless?" Xia Yan was still in disbelief.

"That's natural, the second young master of my family still has a bodhisattva heart, and often goes to help some poor people. It's really a fairy-like character. ”

"Immortals?"

"This is the nickname given to the second young master by the official ladies in the capital: Fairy Prince. Don't look at the young master as a businessman, but in the eyes of those young ladies, even the children of the official eunuchs are not as good as the young master, and they cry and shout one by one to marry him. ”

"That's a wonderful person."

This kind of perfect male god-level character makes Xia Yan can't even be a nymphomaniac, because he has no capital.

For this second young master, Xia Yan only admired and admired.

If he were to be himself, he would not be as indifferent to the world as he was.

After finishing the conversation with Fu Duozhi, taking the silver they deserved and confirming the time of pulling the goods again, Xia Yan and Xia Huai left Ruyi Zhai, had lunch, and wandered around the market leisurely.

"Yan'er, look, there are sugar gourds selling there, bring some for my mother and Mu Fan."

"Don't bring it to Mu Fan." Xia Yan pouted and turned his head angrily.

"Okay." Xia Huai regretted that he shouldn't have talked too much, and mentioning this name made his sister unhappy, "If you don't bring it, you won't bring it, Mu Fan's kid just doesn't clean up, let's starve him for a few days and let him beg for mercy." ”

The brother and sister took three strings of sugar gourds and went home leisurely, but they didn't know that in the shadow of the place where they were standing just now, someone was excited: "Those two children mentioned Mu Fan just now? Great, after looking for so long, I finally got a clue, and my life was finally saved. ”

In an instant, the person disappeared from the spot.

In a magnificent courtyard in the county town, an elegant gentleman about forty years old looked at the black-clothed man kneeling in front of him with a gloomy expression, and said in a voice that could not hear any emotion: "Have you found the young master?" ”

"Also...... Not yet. ”

"And the face back? The time limit for the writ is approaching. ”

The man in black's voice trembled, "But...... Is it a subordinate looking for ...... I've found some clues, and I've sent Nine to follow. ”

"Tell me."

"My subordinates heard two children discussing the young master's name in the market."

"Have you heard anything else from them?" Mr. Ruya immediately came to his senses, the disappearance of the young master was like a stone sinking into the sea, and more than 20 guards searched for several months without the slightest clue.

"The subordinates vaguely heard them saying that the young master was not cleaned up, and he wanted to make him hungry and beg for mercy. I'm afraid the young master was imprisoned by them. ”

"Smack!" Mr. Ruya grabbed the cup on the table and slammed it on the ground, saying angrily: "They dare! One, you immediately take all the guards to support Nine, and if you resist, you will be killed. I want to see who is so bold as to imprison the Third Highness. ”

"Yes." Number One retreated profusely sweating.

I am really unlucky today, how did I meet Xu Changping, a cold-faced gentleman, where are the dissolute Master Liang and the good old man Manager Fan?

At this time, Xia Yan, who had just returned home, didn't know that the wind and rain were coming, and the danger was coming, and he was still puffing out his cheeks and Mu Fan.

"Mother, you can't give him your sugar gourd."

"Yan'er, Mu Fan is a guest, you can't do this." Yan looked at the children who had not yet reconciled, and shook his head helplessly.

She put the sugar gourd in her hand in front of Mu Fan and said softly, "Child, eat it." ”

Mu Fan looked at the tempting string of sugar gourds, swallowed his saliva, and turned his head angrily.

Xia Yan was furious, opened his mouth and said something that he regretted for a long time: "If you have the ability, just leave, don't eat my family's food in the future." ”

Mu Fan snorted coldly, got up and walked towards the door.

"Mu Fan, it's getting dark, where are you going? Yan'er, she is not sensible, don't be like her. Yan persuaded anxiously.

"Get out for a walk."

"It's good to go out for a walk, be careful on the road, and remember to come back for dinner."

Yan thought that this was just an ordinary child quarrel, and Mu Fan would come back when he was angry, but he didn't know that Mu Fan had disappeared when he left.
