At noon the next day, Nanning rushed in to report, the rainbow, really tried out, the weather happened to be good in the morning, they took those few big bamboo tubes to the suburbs to try two or three times, each time they tried out, Li Xiaoqi was overjoyed, let Nanning take a bamboo tube over, this bamboo tube is made of a very thick dry hair bamboo tube, three or four bamboo tubes through the bamboo joints, the head is nailed with brass nails drilled with thin as cow hair, dense holes of the brass sheet, Nanning and Changchang to Li Xiaoqi tried, absorb water and press it out with all his might, The water in the bamboo tube spewed out like a mist, yes, the rainbow is the sun's rays shining on such fog beads!

Li Xiaoqi was extremely satisfied, thought about it carefully, and ordered: "Transfer these six spray throats to Changming, you must be careful, the Wu family is just repairing the Pan Bridge, which is connected to the Jinshui River, and it is very lively, the most suitable, but seeing that it will be completed in the next few days, just these two days, and then there is a good day like today, let him take someone to send this rainbow gift, explain to him, these six people, don't look for others, just use the few people he brought over this time, send it out, and immediately burn these six spray throats, this brass sheet must be turned into copper blocks, Throw it into the well, and you won't be left for a moment! In case someone intercepts it, you can find those craftsmen with this copper piece, and if you find a craftsman, you can find us, Changming will immediately rush to kill it, such details are only afraid that they are not thoughtful, you run a trip, you must explain and understand! Nanning agreed in a deep voice, wrapped the bamboo tube, and carefully carried it out.

Li Xiaoqi instructed Danyue to take the yellow calendar and turn it over slowly, the time flies really fast, it's already March, tomorrow is March 3, this is the big day of Taiping Mansion, everyone who knows so many words must find a small ditch, what is the flow of meandering water! I heard that Kaiping Mansion is also fashionable now, what is it called to raise Wenqi, Li Xiaoqi half lying on the couch, shaking his feet and calculating, that Zhao Jushi, must be Prime Minister Lin Cheng's death and his wife Xiao, for the sake of safety, or have to find someone to recognize it, after Xiao's death, the Lin family sent a group of servants and servants out of the house, and I have to think of finding a few such people, there must be someone who has seen Xiao's here, and I can only identify and understand, in case of oolong, this head falls, I can no longer turn over, I must be cautious. However, the preparations have to be done first•••••• Li Xiaoqi twisted his brows, dug out his heart and thought for a long time, sat up, ordered Danyue to take a pen and paper, held his breath and concentrated, and wrote the first words crookedly:

Zengsan smallpox stamen pearl palace. A thought fell into the dust. The lead is washed away, the pearls are not resistant, and the bones are fairy.

I rode a whale drunk to the east, and I drove Suluan. Weeping rainbow to see the moon, rooftop to collect medicine, with whom is it more the same.

This is Lu You's words, she remembers this clearly, among the calligraphy and paintings hanging in her study back then, there was this one, Li Xiaoqi raised the piece of paper and read it again, put down the pen, and ordered Yuan Yuan to come in.

Li Xiaoqi handed the piece of paper to Chang Yuan, ignoring Chang Yuan's astonishment at her unique font, and calmly ordered: "Look at it and remember it." Chang Yuan bowed slightly in agreement, his lips moved and read silently a few times, handed the piece of paper to Li Xiaoyi, and said with a smile: "Write it down." ”

"Hmm." Li Xiaoqi took the piece of paper, threw it into the paper basin next to it, looked at it and commanded: "Transfer it to Jiayi and let him let this out, just say that Prime Minister Lin Cheng did it on March 3 this year, Prime Minister Lin Cheng has never been proud of his talent, and this time someone happened to see it and spread it." Chang Chang blinked, he couldn't understand what Li Xiaomi's intentions were, he didn't understand, he agreed neatly and simply, and determined a few details with Li Xiaoyi, and quit to make arrangements.

Huang Yuanshan sat in the tea shop at the head of Junyi Bridge with Erlang's legs crossed, absentmindedly drinking a bowl of tea, and paying attention to the east end of the alley, this tea shop is one of the places where those husbands and sons touched things from the palace to find buyers, he has been here for two days, and he didn't even see a husband, Huang Yuanshan changed his legs anxiously, today is the second day, and the king of Hades only gave himself three days! Just when he was irritable, a figure flashed at the east end of the alley, and the tea bowl in Huang Yuanshan's excited hand almost fell out, and he hurriedly threw down the tea bowl, carrying his robe in three steps and making two steps towards the figure.

Rushing to the man, Huang Yuanshan bowed to the end, greeting with a smile on his face: "It turned out to be a businessman, you are good, it is better to meet by chance, you always appreciate face, and the little one invites you to drink a cup of tea?" Shang Dawang propped up his eyelids and glanced at Huang Yuanshan, and there was no trace of expression on his face with pleats on them, and he snorted contemptuously from his nose: "Master, you also did this business?" ”

"Look at what you said, this Shi don't have to be impressed in three days, don't worry, don't stick to anything, the small ones can be done, and it's also a small luck, there is an uncle who rewarded a small business, the uncle said, there is too much silver, just worry about no place to spend it, the merchant can rest assured, the small first time to do a big business, not limited to silver, just to open an auspicious good head, the small one does not charge the merchant a penny of commission, anyway, it is also a business of one hand of silver and one hand, the merchant will take care of the small this time, and never let the merchant suffer a loss." Huang Yuanshan accompanied him to be careful, and strongly persuaded Shang Dawang that he must win this business, this is a life-threatening matter!

Shang Dawang clasped his hands in front of his chest, obliquely tilting at Huang Yuanshan, he really couldn't take a commission but a good thing that he couldn't meet with a lantern, this commission money had to be taken away from 20%, he was really willing not to take a penny? Huang Yuanshan stared at Shang Dawang closely, leaned forward, and explained in a low voice: "Don't hide it from Shang Ye, the little one can meet that uncle, that is really the good luck of the Bodhisattva's blessing, Shang Ye doesn't know, that uncle has a lot of silver, and the small one is not that short-sighted person, Shang Ye, think about it, if the little one can catch up with this uncle, he can take over a few more businesses in the future, and today's commission is nothing." Shang Dawang nodded approvingly, Huang Yuanshan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly asked Shang Dawang to go to the teahouse and said: "Shang Ye, please, drink a bowl of tea, today's tea is very fragrant, Shang Ye has to taste it." Shang Dawang held his hands in his sleeves, followed Huang Yuanshan into the tea workshop and sat down, the doctor of tea and rice and wine served the tea, Shang Dawang aimed at the tea, or with his hands in his sleeves, stared at Huang Yuanshan and said slowly, softly: "Today is a big business, and the master is also in a hurry to use silver, ten taels, not two prices." ”

Huang Yuanshan didn't blink his eyelids, and said with a smile: "Master Shang also knows the rules of this industry, this goods?" ”

"Hmm." Shang Dawang lowered his eyelids, pulled his sleeves open by half an inch, revealing a blue porcelain thin tire cover bowl, glanced at Huang Yuanshan, pulled it out a little more, took out the lid of the bowl and said: "Take this to the uncle, this is a royal tribute, and you can't buy it with any amount of silver outside!" Today's business is going fast, you go and show it to the uncle, I'll wait here. Huang Yuanshan took the lid and stood up with a calm smile, but his heart was full of thoughts, where to find Uncle Hades? Huang Yuanshan turned his mind to think of a way, as if he moved to the door of the teahouse leisurely, and a seven or eight-year-old child on the opposite side rushed to him and shouted: "Uncle Huang, that uncle said that he was at the mouth of that alley!" Let you go! Huang Yuanshan was overjoyed, and before he could catch the child and ask more, the child turned his head and rushed back, reached out and took a large handful of ginger candy at the mouth of the alley, and ran away with joy.

Huang Yuanshan held the lid tightly and ran into the alley, in the alley, an old and tired merchant was resting on the pick, Huang Yuanshan looked at the merchant suspiciously, the merchant smiled honestly, raised a tight black cloth bag and said: "This master is Uncle Huang Yuanshan, there was a son just now, let the little one hand over this bag to Uncle Huang, the son said, the business matter, Uncle Huang is in charge, how much is not restricted." Huang Yuanshan stretched out his hand to take the cloth bag, his hand sank straight down, there were forty or fifty taels of silver in this bag, and his hand could hardly lift it, Huang Yuanshan was confused and surprised and stunned Looking at the cloth bag, the merchant picked up the burden, shook the drum, shouted weakly, and walked to the end of the alley. Huang Yuanshan stood in place, exhaled a few times with his eyes closed, carefully tied the cloth bag around his waist, and went back to the teahouse in a blink of an eye.

gave Shang Dawang ten taels of silver, Huang Yuanshan took the bowl, carried it in his arms like a baby, pressed one hand lightly from the outside, leaned towards Shang Dawang's side, and said with a smile: "Look, let me tell you, this uncle, that's the real uncle, to be honest, ten taels of silver, that master doesn't even look at it, Shang Ye turned around and got some really good things out, Shang Ye rest assured, in the future, I will only draw one percent of your helper silver, no, half of it!" As long as the merchant has good goods, we will •••••• make a fortune together! Huang Yuanshan twisted his fingers and said, Shang Dawang's business went surprisingly well, and he took two taels of silver, he was in a good mood, he stretched out his hand to pat Huang Yuanshan's shoulder, and his white but wrinkled face smiled into a chrysanthemum: "You kid has really changed his luck, don't worry, as long as there is something in the future, I will look for you!" Huang Yuanshan followed with a smile, sent Shang Dawang out of the teahouse, stood at the door of the teahouse, pressed the bowl on his chest with one hand, and touched the heavy cloth bag on his waist with the other, it was really like a dream in a trance.

Shang Dawang turned an alley, but did not go back to the direction of the palace, but walked quickly towards the alley opposite the palace, far away, a porter, a scholar-like person, and two hawkers not far away, Shang Dawang turned a few alleys, walked for more than half an hour, stood in front of a large courtyard, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door knocker, the door quickly opened from the inside, a small guy poked his head out to look, hurriedly opened the door, and let Shang Dawang enter with a smile.

Not long after, Shang Dawang walked out of the courtyard with a relaxed face, sleeved his hands, humming a little song happily, along the way he came, and walked back quickly in the direction of the palace.

The scholar shook the folding fan, watched Shang Dawang walk away, walked leisurely to the door of the courtyard, knocked heavily on the knocker, the door opened again, the little girl looked at the scholar curiously, said a few words, and politely let the scholar into the courtyard.
