Chapter 13: Lord Si
After buying a house, Chuxin still has about five hundred taels of silver in her hand, which can be used to make her new money.
She has a very good idea, ancient people, whether male or female, when they go out, they either ride horses, take carriages, or walk, but it is not convenient to ride horses and chariots in this capital.
So she wants to come up with a new means of transportation, not to mention far away, just in the capital, not out of the city gate.
A tool that men and women, noblewomen, young ladies, young masters, and even subordinates and commoners can sit on.
That is the rickshaw, a convenience car in China's modern 70s and 80s, simple, convenient and easy to use.
She had to make three kinds, one for ladies and ladies, one for the powerful men, and one for the commoners.
Of course, the price of these three rickshaws is not the same, and the rich naturally can't live up to them, and the price is more or less their identity.
For ordinary cars, she will set them according to the distance of the journey, and the price is the right for the car.
At the beginning, I felt that rickshaws would make money, and now the key is to find a base first, open a shop, and then find a suitable and reliable car puller.
She has already designed the three patterns of the rickshaw, and when everything is done, it can be opened.
Chuxin led her darling and Qing Yu around the Imperial Capital City, and she wanted to find a cheap and big place to do a shop.
She is now coming step by step, making herself slowly stronger, in this era, if she is not strong, she will be as humble as a slave and be humiliated by others.
After inquiring for a long time, I finally found a place that met the conditions of my original intention, and just wanted to take a step, but I was blocked by a lot of guards.
"Get out of the way, Si Wangye returned to Beijing and disturbed the prince's holy drive, don't blame the ruthlessness of the knife." The guard with the knife said with a fierce face.
The guards wore swords and opened an unobstructed path, and all stood on both sides of the street with expressionless faces to greet the approaching people.
"Lord Si?" Chu Chu muttered in a low voice, is it Jiang Yi's mouth, the seventh prince who was very favored by the emperor?
"Yes! It is said that Si Wangye was sent by the emperor to provide disaster relief three months ago, and now he has returned triumphantly! A middle-aged man heard Chuxin's voice, touched his chin, and looked very knowledgeable.
"Disaster relief? What plague? A flash of curiosity flashed in Chuxin's eyes, how could she not have heard of a disaster there.
"River disaster!"
"What's wrong with the river?"
"Doesn't the little lady know?" The man gave him a strange look.
Chuxin wondered, what kind of eyes was this, and shook his head.
"On the fifth day of the fifth month of May every year in Jiangdu, the river god will marry a daughter-in-law, and select ten beautiful women to send to the river god, the river god is happy, there will be no flood, and the people of Jiangdu will have a good life, the wind and rain are smooth, and today the emperor specially sent the prince to go over." The man said with admiration, as if how powerful he was.
The first heart opened his eyes wide, and the river god married his daughter-in-law?
Offering the living to the river?
Doesn't this stay amorphous?
It seems that this prince is not a good product, taking a woman to worship the river god, such a ridiculous and brainless approach, pedantic to the extreme, is simply inhumane.
She only knew that May 5 was the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was almost the same to commemorate Qu Yuan.
"Look, it's Lord Si here!" Someone in the crowd shouted, and after saying that, people on the side of the road immediately surrounded them, and there were even women's screams.
Chuxin poked his head and took a look, and found that he couldn't see anything except the human head, and the people around him swarmed up and quickly moved back with his darling.
It's understandable that this woman is leaning up, but how can these men also lean up?
This is worse than the siege of modern fans, this Si Wang Ye is really old and young.
Si Di sat in the carriage, gently knocked his eyes, listening to the noise outside the carriage, the thick and black sword eyebrows frowned slightly, the delicate face as carved flashed with a trace of imperceptible disgust, and with a slight movement of his fingers, the curtain of the carriage fell.
The moment the curtain fell, Emperor Si opened his eyes, as deep as the vast universe, with a glimmer of cold light in his eyes, he asked people to clean up the streets, in order to rush back to the palace as soon as possible.
He didn't like the eyes of these people.
With a slight tilt of the head, I saw a mother and daughter, the small one snuggled in the woman's arms, and the woman bowed her head to protect the child in her arms, not affected by the people around her at all.
To be exact, he was not affected by him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, he had never met such a person.
When he wanted to take another look, the carriage had already flashed past, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in his heart, so fast that he didn't even realize it.
"Si Wang Ye is the most handsome man in our Yuyue Kingdom, legend has it that when he was born, the sky was surrounded by purple light, and auspicious rain fell from the sky, which was the great blessing of Yuyue Kingdom," a female nymphomaniac said.
When Chu Chu heard this, a flash of clarity flashed in his eyes, so it is so, no wonder men, women and children eat it together.
"You only say one thing, but you don't know the other, you must know that Si Wang Ye is ...... to death"
"Shut up!" As soon as the man was halfway through speaking, he was interrupted by the woman: "Those are all nonsense, and they have nothing to do with Lord Si!" ”
The man closed his mouth timidly, he was just a moment of quick mouth, you must know that those are taboos, if Si Wang Ye knows, he will definitely cut his tongue.
Chu Xin didn't care about the bickering between the two, watched the crowd disperse, saw Qing Yu's figure at a glance, and pulled his pet over.
After entering the palace, Emperor Si faced the guards around him and indifferently ordered: "This king should rest, and no one is allowed to disturb him!" ”
"Yes!" The man behind him stood at the door with a blank face.
"Sister Heart, did you really decide to be here?" Qing Yu looked at the gloomy room in front of him and couldn't help but shudder.
This used to be the place where the dead lived.
"Well, this place is wide, the most important thing is that the location is good and cheap, there is nothing more suitable than here," Chuxin looked satisfied, she just bought it easily.
"But ......"
"But what?" Chu Chu looked at Qing Yu and said with a smile: "Although this place used to be a mortuary, it didn't affect anything, aren't you afraid of those ghosts and gods!" ”
"Why, I'm not afraid of bad luck and affecting business?" Qing Yu smirked.
This place used to let the dead live, but it was relocated two years ago, and it was only vacant, and no one cared about it, so today when the landlord saw that someone wanted to rent, oh no, he wanted to buy it, and immediately touted it, for fear that they would not buy it.
Two hundred taels of silver is indeed not expensive, but it also depends on what kind of place it is, and in this kind of place, will anyone come?
Chuxin's eyes flashed with joy, she really picked up a big bargain today, she didn't have much money on hand now, and it was best to buy here.
Let's not talk about the loss, if the homeowner sees the profit at that time and finds trouble for you, then it is called trouble.
No matter what time it is, it's easy to use your own things.
If it is at the usual price here, how can it cost a few thousand taels of silver, so two hundred taels of silver to resell her is already a great bargain.
