Chapter 281: Seduction
On the eve of the Midyear Festival, Jiangxi and Li bought a lot of yellow paper and came back, intending to fold it into ingots.
It's not that there are no ingots sold in the town, but Li said that only when you fold them yourself can you put your mind in it, and the people below can feel it.
Jiang Xi didn't believe in these superstitions before, but since many things happened to her, she slowly began to be in awe of these so-called superstitions.
Moreover, even though she knew that the old man would not receive these ingots, she still wanted to pin her grief on it.
Folding ingots, Jiang Xi didn't let the girls below participate, originally Jiang Qian could have come to fold, after all, she was going to marry into the Jiang family in the future, but because of the provincial workshop, Jiangxi left her there and didn't bring her over.
When she went home this time, she and Li didn't bring many people, so she brought two girls, one was a girl in green to serve closely, and the other was responsible for sorting things and running errands.
As for the Li family, they also brought two back, Lianzi and another little girl.
Speaking of which, the little girl beside the Li family was brought back by Jiang Xirang.
Before, when Li and Jiangxi were chatting, they inadvertently talked about the little girl who was inquiring about the workshop. Jiang Xi kept an eye on it, and took advantage of this time to go home, so as to bring the little girl back, so as not to let people take advantage of the loophole when they were not there.
In addition, she plans to find a chance to test this little girl. As the saying goes, if you can't figure out the identity of this little girl, you will always feel uncomfortable when you keep it by your side.
"Girl, everything has arrived."
Lianzi hurried from outside, with excitement on his face, and said to Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi's eyes moved, and he quickly got up.
"Really delivered?"
"Hmmm! Sent over! ”
Seeing this, Li Shi was puzzled: "Xi'er, what kind of dumb riddle are you two playing, I can't understand what you are talking about." ”
"It's okay, mother, we're talking about my uncle who sent the fruit from the orchard!"
"Fruit?" Li Shi was stunned for a moment, "That fruit is not being delivered at any time, you are so excited, my mother still thinks something is wrong." ”
"Ahem!" Jiang Xi suddenly coughed dryly, a trace of discomfort flashed on his face, and he quickly spoke: "That, I asked my uncle to help me bring something last time, that's why I'm excited, mother, I'll go out and have a look first, you fold it yourself, I'll come in a while!" ”
After saying that, Jiang Xi ran away.
Li Shi looked at her back as she left, and muttered puzzledly: "This child, when did she let her uncle bring things, the provincial capital should have everything." ”
Li's voice was not big or small, and the little girl who was waiting beside her could hear it.
As soon as these words came out, the little girl's eyes moved, as if she suddenly thought of something, and a burst of light shot out of her eyes.
It's just that because she is behind Li and has her head down, others can't find out.
Jiang Xi and Lianzi came out of Li Shiyuan, and walked towards the front yard, their faces returned to normal little by little, and they were still half excited at the moment.
"Girl, did you think she would come along?" Lianzi whispered beside Jiangxi.
Today's incident is a bureau set up by them, in order to test the little girl's bureau. If the other party passes and doesn't come out to check as they guessed, then Jiang Xi plans to trust this girl and no longer guard against her.
Of course, not following not only means that this little girl is not someone sent by some family, but also that she is too stupid to understand the conversation between her and Lianzi. If that's the case, she doesn't have to worry, it's impossible for someone who is too stupid to find a place and leak things out.
By Li's side, the girl didn't know that she was calculated, and only thought in her heart that it should be impossible for Jiangxi to let Li Chuncheng bring other things over, so the only possibility was that she brought the raw materials for the production of glass crystal.
Before entering the house, she explained two things: the first is to find a way to find out the location of production, and the second is to find out what the raw materials are.
At the moment, it is a little unrealistic for her to find out the location, and this time she followed her to the town, and she didn't know when she would be able to go back, so she could only work the raw materials.
The raw material is this, she was in the courtyard of the provincial capital before, and she didn't hear a clue, thinking about it, it should be in the town.
She had been back for three or four days, and every day she saw only a large amount of fruit, fish, and some limestone being brought in.
The fruit is used to make canned fruits, the fish is fed to fish and shrimp, and as for the limestone, lime is also burned here, and the lady also uses this to wrap eggs.
Of course, more of it was sold, and a lot of silver was made, who made more lime on this mountain.
Although she didn't know how the glass crystal was made, it was obviously impossible for these three raw materials, otherwise the Jiang family would have let people in so generously?
Moreover, these three things are too common, if you can make glass crystal, then glass crystal will not be made now.
She felt that something as exquisite as that must be similar to amber and crystal, where they were dug up, they were originally there, and the Jiang family just did a processing.
When she was on her master's side, she was also fortunate to see the glass crystal, although it was only a quick glance, but it was enough to attract her whole eyeball. To this day, she is still sighing that there is such a pure, crystal clear object in the world.
The master and her thoughts are similar, and they also think that where did the Jiang family dig a glass crystal mine, which is the main reason for sending her over, that is, to let her stare at it to see what the raw materials are and where they are dug from.
"Madam, you have been sitting here for a long time, and you must be thirsty, so the slave will go and pour you a cup of tea."
The little girl spoke, wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to follow and see, but if she missed this time, she didn't know how long she would have to wait. Next time, maybe she will return to the provincial capital, and it will be difficult to think of this town again.
Li folded the ingots in his hand, relaxed his body, nodded to the girl, and thought that he should indeed drink something to moisten his throat.
"Okay, there you go."
When the little girl got the order, she showed a slight triumphant smile on her face, and quickly retracted it, worried that she would be seen by the green-clothed girl on the side.
She has always been disdainful of the Li family in her heart, and the most feared thing in this family is Qin Hao, she is not very afraid of Jiangxi, and she feels that no matter how powerful she is, she is just a woman.
Just now, Jiang Xi was not easily exposed, so excited, at a glance, he knew that it must be the raw materials of glass crystal that were sent.
Out of the courtyard, she pursed her lips and instructed a rough girl outside: "Go to the kitchen and ask them to prepare two cups of tea, and I will serve them later." ”
The rough girl listened, and ran away at once, while she headed for the outer courtyard, and to-day, she must find out what the raw materials were, and even more so find a way to find the mines. In this way, the master will definitely value her, and maybe she will be a concubine by the master's side in the future.
Thinking of this, she was even more motivated.
Jiang Xi and Lianzi were beside Li Chuncheng at the moment, looking at the fine fruits he had brought from the orchard, the corners of Jiang Xi's mouth couldn't help but smile.
"Uncle, this year's fruits look really lovely, big and fragrant, and it makes people appetize when they look at it."
"But no, this year's harvest is really good, including the fruit groves on our mountain, which is also a bumper harvest.
Speaking of which, the whole village has asked me to say thank you this year.
Originally, everyone saw that the harvest was good and thought that the price would be lowered again, but we still used the same price as last year to harvest the fruit. You don't know that those fruit sellers who wanted to take the opportunity to buy fruit at a low price have a gray face in our village.
Later, they also had to follow last year's market price, and the price of the fruit was not suppressed at all this year, and many fruit farmers were able to have a rich year this year, and everyone thanked you from the bottom of their hearts. ”
"Thank you for this, we don't need it, we are also making money, and we are not losing money because we help others.
It's just that the fruit sellers in the past saw that the harvest was good and deliberately lowered the price, just like a bumper harvest of grain.
If our government is willing to implement the system, the price of grain will always be set at a certain point. When the harvest is harvested, the price is not lowered, and the government bids to hoard the grain. If the harvest is not good, the price will not rise, and then the hoarded grain will be put on the market, and it will be good. ”
Jiang Xi just mentioned it casually, but it made Li Chuncheng's eyes light up.
"Xi'er, don't talk about this, maybe you can really have a head."
"What?"
"Don't you know the Song family in the provincial capital, you can let them try. I heard someone say a few days ago that there is a very high probability that there will be a war in the past two years, and this year's grain is about to mature, and this year's harvest is good. ”
After speaking, Li Chuncheng scratched his head again and said, "Xi'er, uncle, I am also a big boss, I can't think too much about things, and I can say everything I think." You and Hao'er are both scholars, and they should know more than your uncle, if you think it's not feasible, then assume that your uncle didn't say it, haha. ”
Li Chuncheng laughed dryly at the two of them to hide his embarrassment, but Jiang Xi suddenly said: "No! Maybe it's really possible! ”
Jiang Xi decided to write a letter to Song San overnight, informing him of all this and asking him to come up with an idea.
Just thinking about it, he was suddenly touched by Lianzi's elbow, and Lianzi whispered in her ear: "Girl, she really came out, you guessed it right." ”
Came out? That's good.
The corners of Jiang Xi's mouth hooked, and he suddenly said to Li Chuncheng: "Uncle, this time it's really hard for you, and you brought things over, let's put this car here first, I'll find someone else to come down, you go to the backyard with me to eat tea." ”
