When Gu Song heard this, he felt that something was wrong when he thought about it, but when he remembered the calm and flat expression of the Nine Emperor Princes at that time, he felt that it was nothing, so he said: "The little child's family, you can't help but have too much heart." It's just a hanging ornament, you keep it, you can wear it if you want to wear it, and if you don't want to wear it, you can put it aside. I can't return it to the Nine Emperors, saying that my sister picked it up, so I don't want this thing!"

At this time, the third wife happened to hear the words of the two brothers and sisters, took the jade and looked at it, and couldn't help but say good: "When I was not married in the past, I also saw some good things, but it is very rare to see such a clear one." This is still a rare imperial green, and it is still a little purple, which is a good thing, so keep it. ”

Ah Yan pursed his lips, and the cold and handsome little appearance of the Nine Emperor Princes appeared in his mind, and he hesitated for a while, and finally touched the jade pendant.

looked down, and finally said: "One is Guanyin, the other is Buddha, to say that it is not a pair, I like it, so I naturally wear it." Besides, he is a prince, and there are many good things around him, even if he leaves a Guanyin jade pendant, he may not be able to wear it. ”

Gu Song saw that his sister wanted to open it, and immediately nodded again and again: "My sister is very right!"

That night, Ah Yan lay on the bed, tossing and turning but couldn't sleep, and somehow remembered the dream that seemed to be true the day before, there was the Nine Emperor Princes in the dream, and he also fed himself medicine. So she simply got up, opened the makeup box, and took out the jade pendant, holding it in the palm of her hand, with a cool touch.

She rubbed like this, thinking back to her previous life for a while.

In fact, after the Nine Emperor Princes became emperors, she had also seen them several times, but they were far away, and they couldn't really see it, they only knew that he was far away, and his expression was faint, as if nothing could make him see it in his eyes.

Such an unattainable emperor is now just a cold child who doesn't like to talk.

Rubbing the jade pendant in her palm, Ah Yan felt that this emperor, who once made her dare not even look up, did not seem to be so far away.

On the second day, because of something, I didn't go to home school. Early in the morning, news came from outside the second gate, saying that the young master had come, and he didn't dare to come to the third room first, but went to meet the ancestors of the family with generous gifts.

Who knew that the ancestor said that he was not very comfortable today, and his body was not good, so he didn't even see him, so he sent the eldest young master to accompany him.

The eldest young master is also a non-existent person, and after showing his side, he hung the young master there.

Seeing this, the young master also knew the scene in the house, and now he had fulfilled all the etiquette, so he came to the third room to meet his aunt.

Ah Yan heard that her cousin was coming, so she was ready early in the morning, and when the young master came to the room to meet her, she also went over, relying on her young age and close relatives, there was nothing taboo.

The young master of the table has a royal blue moire tuanhua lake silk straight jacket, which sets off the figure of the jade tree in the wind, and the sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man, with a handsome face, stands there, speaking politely, and it is liked at a glance.

When Ah Yan walked over, he looked at his cousin and couldn't help but smile: "Brother Armang, you are here." ”

The young master's name is Amang, at this time, I heard the little girl's family call her name delicately, and when I looked at it again, I saw Ayan combing her hair and wearing pink and tender flowers on her head, and her little face became more and more delicate and lovely, as if she could pinch the water.

She was also wearing a soft silk armor with pink and blue edges, and a pleated skirt of the same color underneath, just standing there prettyly, looking at herself with big crystal eyes, just like a peach blossom hanging on the branch after the rain, trembling, people didn't even dare to touch it.

The young master hadn't seen Ah Yan for a year or two, and when he saw him at this time, he felt so stunned when he looked at it, and then he smiled himself, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sister Ah Yan, how are you doing lately?"

Ah Yan smiled and said: "Brother Armang, thank you for sending it yesterday, I like a lot of things in it, especially the little carriage that can walk by itself, it is really exquisite, and I have never seen it before." ”

When the young master heard this, he was naturally happy: "That one that really can't be seen ordinarily, I heard that it is a thing shipped from overseas by a merchant who is out of business, I look at it interestingly, I think you must like it when you see it." ”

At this time, the little maid came up with tea and pastries and fruits, and the third lady sat there, with a smile on her face, and said lovingly: "It's hard for you to run outside to buy and sell, and you still think about her." She, what kind of thing is just three or two days fresh, why should you spend money on that Rausch thing? ”

Young Master Cousin smiled respectfully: "Ah Yan likes it, naturally it should be spent as much as it takes." ”

Speaking of Gu Song for a while, the young master hurriedly congratulated: "Actually, I have heard outside that Ah Song has now gone to King Ning's Mansion to read with the Nine Emperor Princes, which is really gratifying." ”

The third lady was also happy when she heard the young master mention this, and smiled from ear to ear: "But isn't it, I'm finally relieved, thinking that it is the prince's accompaniment, and I hope to have a good future in the future." Originally, it was said that if you really can't study and don't make progress, you will follow your students' wishes. ”

When the young master heard this, he said: "This is absolutely unacceptable, Ah Song and I are different, he is a young master in the Guogong Mansion, how can he follow me to learn this." Besides, there is a lot of suffering in going south and north, how can my aunt bear to let Ah Song suffer this hardship. ”

Having said this, Ah Yan suddenly said: "Brother Aman, in fact, I have something I want to talk to you about when you come this time." ”

The young master looked at Ah Yan with a smile, his eyes soft: "Sister Ah Yan, you just say it." ”

Ah Yan smiled at his mother, and then at Brother Aman, and then said his thoughts: "Brother Aman, you should also know the situation of me waiting in the mansion now. is the so-called jackal around, struggling, and now that my brother has been selected to accompany the prince, we are even more to blame. ”

The young master frowned when he heard this, remembering that he went to the old lady's courtyard to meet him today but was turned away, and then remembered all the rumors he had heard, and now, looking at the sorrow and seriousness that appeared on Ah Yan's immature little face.

He frowned and looked at Ah Yan distressedly: "Ah Yan, I know that my aunt and you are in a bad situation in the house, and I hate that I am just a businessman's family, and I can't support my aunt." ”

Ah Yan smiled when he heard this: "Brother Aman, when I say this, I don't complain about anything. I just want to say that although my mother has some marriages, she is coveted by everyone, and besides, we are people who do not produce anything, so I am afraid that we will sit on the mountain in the future. So now I think, I hope that Brother Armand will help, and I will use my mother's dowry as a book, and find a few things to make a living, and I can also make some money, but I don't know what my brother thinks of my idea?"

When the young master heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the delicate person in front of him with appreciation, and couldn't help but smile: "My sister thinks very much, in fact, I already had this idea, but I didn't have time to mention it." ”

Although Ah Mang said this, Ah Yan only thought about it and understood. If the mother herself did not mention it, but instead proposed to use her aunt's dowry to invest in the shop, outsiders would inevitably think too much in their eyes.

Thinking of this festival, Ah Yan admired his cousin more and more, knowing that he was a good character, but he was also steady, and he felt that he had found the right person at the moment.

The third wife has always been ignorant of the economy, and she is also confused about these, and when she saw that Ah Yan and her nephew had a good conversation, she let them talk.

When she looked at it, the third lady thought that she should go to the ancestral house to say goodbye again. Even if the ancestor didn't give her a good face, she still greeted her three times a day, rain or shine.

After a while, the third wife left, Ah Yan became more and more unscrupulous, and said with a smile: "Brother Aman, I have asked you for all these things, help me first to see, what is good for a living, it is best to be safe, let's do it." ”

The young master pondered slightly, and said: "Actually, I have long taken a fancy to a business, but I don't have any knowledge at the moment, so it's not easy to meddle for a while." I thought that if this business could be done well, I would definitely be able to make money in the future. ”

When Ah Yan heard this, his eyes lit up: "What kind of deal?"

When the young master saw Ah Yan hear this, his eyes burst out with amazing brilliance, and he couldn't help but soften his gaze, and said with a smile: "Tea." ”

Tea?

The young master looked at the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Nowadays, in Yanjing City, nobles love to drink tea, and teahouses are popular. I also know some tea merchants, and I know a little bit about how to transport and make tea. ”

Ah Yan listened to it and felt that it made sense, now that the big families don't use tea to entertain guests, this is a matter of vassal elegance. If you can make the best deal for this, you will definitely make a lot of profits.

But Ah Yan is not stupid, listening to what his cousin meant, he understands that there must be difficulties in doing this business.

He immediately asked: "If this business is good, there must be a lot of people who want to come to Yanjing City to do this business, and there must be some threshold, which ordinary people can't easily do, right?"

Hearing this, the young master smiled and looked at the pink little cousin with more and more appreciation, and said with a smile: "Ah Yan is really very smart. In fact, this business, if you want to do it, there are four major difficulties, one is the best goods, this needs to carefully select the best tea garden, from which to pick up the goods, the second is the transportation capacity, because the tea is expensive in the fresh, the newly picked good tea, need to be transported to Yanjing and other prosperous cities at the fastest speed, and the third is the people who are extremely familiar with the way of tea to help operate. ”

When Ah Yan heard this, he groaned slightly, but said: "Although it is extremely difficult to do these three things, there must be no difficulty for Brother Amand. Brother Armand travels from south to north, whether it is water transportation or land transportation, he is quite familiar with each other, and Brother Armand also knows some tea garden owners and people who run tea estates, right?"

When the young master heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Ah Yan, you are only nine years old, but you are very elf, and you even guessed this! You are right, in fact, the most difficult thing is the fourth thing, that is, the tea introduction." ”

Tea induction?

Ah Yan thought of the tea introduction, but he understood.

Because Shen Congjia in the previous life, he once worked as a farmer in Taifu Temple, and managed food and grain, gold silk, tea and other affairs full-time.

Just because the dynasty implemented the tea system, all tea planting, operation and trading need to be approved by the imperial court and managed by the imperial court.

For example, if you want to open a tea house, you need to obtain a tea introduction, and only with a tea quotation can you be qualified to purchase and operate tea.

And this tea introduction is extremely rare.

Ah Yan vaguely remembered that there had been an endless stream of businessmen who came to the door to ask to see Shen Congjia, just to get the tea citation. Because of this, I don't know how many people have given how many gold and silver treasures.

At that time, Ah Yan didn't understand these affairs and economics at all, and he didn't take them to heart, and only occasionally heard Shen Congjia mention tea and tea, and he felt bored.

Nowadays, I never thought that if I wanted to open a tea house, the most difficult thing to do was to get a tea guide.

At this moment, Ah Yan still doesn't know Shen Congjia, who was in charge of tea in the previous life, and even if he does, Shen Congjia is just a young man who is reading now.

The people in the Jingguo Mansion would not help her at all.

So how did she get this all-important tea?
