Changning was covered with a light veil and carried a large box to a Hu shop.

The so-called Hu merchants are Hu merchants who do business with the Turks in the Western Regions, selling some things that the Great Chu does not have.

Although this Qing'an County is a small border city, it is a place where soldiers must fight, and the Eagle Eye Pass thirty miles away is even more important, claiming to be stationed with the strongest 100,000 soldiers and horses in Dachu. But there is life and death, the soldiers shed blood and tears here to defend the country, and the business of the Hu merchants also began here.

However, in recent years, the border has been stable, and there are more people doing business, and there are more Hu merchants, and this Hu Shang Street has flourished.

It's a pity that this season is now the off-season for trade, and all the goods sold are last year's tails, and there are a lot fewer people.

Fortunately, the things that Changning wanted were not in season, so she entered the store and knocked on the door: "Shopkeeper, is there any Hu Mu?" ”

"Hu Mu? No no. The shopkeeper crackled and waved his hand to drive people away.

Changning raised his eyebrows, he hadn't seen anyone doing this kind of business before.

Seeing that she hadn't left, the shopkeeper looked up impatiently: "I'm in a hurry to do big business here, how can I have time to entertain you, go quickly." ”

"Big business, isn't it just that the Shen family transports grain to exchange for salt?" Changning leaned against the door panel and asked with a smile: "What's the matter, I brought a lot of tea silk porcelain again, and I rushed to do business?" ”

The shopkeeper was slightly surprised: "You little girl knows a lot, but since you know, you should know how many Hu shops are rushing to do the Shen family's business, so go back if you are smart, it is estimated that no one will bother to find Hu Mu for you in the past few days." ”

Changning frowned: "Still need to find it?" ”

"Of course, Hu Mu's thing is not commonly used, it takes up both space and weight, and no one needs it except that it is hard enough to make a wheel, which family will hoard that thing if they have nothing to do." The shopkeeper flipped through the account books as he spoke, obviously counting his inventory, hoping to have something that the Shen family could see.

If you can change a batch of goods now, not to mention saving a lot of freight, when the first wave of Hu people comes in autumn, you may be able to grab the first business.

"It's so troublesome." Changning frowned.

At the beginning, she had seen Song Yisheng collect a large number of Hu Mu exercises, so she thought that this thing should not be difficult to find, but she didn't expect it to be a rare thing.

So how did Song Yisheng get so much?

"Let's go, I'm still busy doing business with the Shen family, but this year is the eldest lady of the Shen family......" Changning didn't hear the words behind the shopkeeper.

Buzzing in his ears, there were only two words about the Shen family.

"It turns out that he targeted the Shen family for this." Changning muttered, a pale and haggard woman's face in his mind.

"I said, will you go? I don't have time to take care of you," the shopkeeper shouted.

"Don't go," Changning strode into the door, and a silver ticket slapped on the table: "Shopkeeper, I want to give you a big business, it depends on whether you dare to do it." ”

The shopkeeper's hand shook, and the brush poked a puddle of ink on the account book, but he didn't have time to take care of it, and nodded busily: "Do, do, of course I did." ”

Changning took his brush, wrote something on a blank piece of paper on the side, folded it and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Give this letter to the eldest lady of the Shen family, wait for some time, and naturally there will be good news." ”

"Just, just a piece of paper?" The shopkeeper's unbelief, glancing at the letter, was obviously a little curious.

Suddenly, a white and tender hand pressed on the paper, and Changning said lightly: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, if you peek and delay, a happy event will become a funeral." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." The shopkeeper nodded again and again, and reached out to touch the fifty taels of silver tickets.

Changning withdrew his hand and did not object.

The shopkeeper happily collected the silver ticket, these fifty taels are worth his return to the goods, even if the Shen family's business is not successful, he will not lose.

"Very good, go and prepare some good wood for me and send it to Qing'an Houfu."

"It turns out that you are from the Hou Mansion, a small disrespect and disrespect." The shopkeeper was shocked, walked out of the counter, and hugged his fists in salute.

Changning was noncommittal, just knocked on the paper on the table and said, "You know the rules of doing things." ”

"Of course, of course, the little one will never say it to anyone." The shopkeeper said again and again: "I'll put it in the account book and present it to Miss Shen when the time comes." ”

Changning smiled with satisfaction and turned to leave.

She has been struggling on the verge of life and death before, and it was Song Yisheng who took the initiative to provoke her to fight back passively, but now that everything is on the right track, she doesn't have to waste time and effort to save her life, she can naturally free up her hands and take the initiative to attack.

And that's just the first step.

Changning walked on the road with a big toolbox on his back, thinking about what Song Yisheng would do.

Song Yisheng in his previous life was already planning to get a real job in Chang'an at this time, and at that time, he held the Mo family's tricks and urgently needed practical practice, so he aimed at the Shen family, a big salt merchant who was rich enough to rival the country.

He married the eldest lady of the Shen family, Shen Jinrong.

But now it's different, he has an injury on his leg and hasn't gotten the trick, and he hasn't even been able to get a job in Chang'an, so it's still a question whether he will take action against the Shen family now.

Looks like she needs to add to the fire.

Before the Song family proposed to the Shen Mansion, Song Yisheng's thoughts must be stopped.

Only she knows what position the Shen family's financial resources occupy on Song Yisheng's way up.

Song Yisheng's large expenses for practicing mechanical skills, his personnel team, network expenses, and even the reputation of his deceased wife, which does not originate from the marriage of the Shen family.

And that gentle and virtuous woman became the innocent soul of the Song Mansion back house.

A victim.

Changning has no friendship with the Shen family, and even hates her because the Shen family has become the Mrs. Song she wants to become, but she really has nothing to say about her character.

The Shen family, a big salt merchant, was raised by many aristocratic women, and it was a real lady.

Changning returned to the house, and the wood had been delivered.

At her request, Shanyun left the hut that had been expanded by the Qingnuan Pavilion to be used as a wooden room, and no one other than her was allowed to enter, and assigned the room next to the wooden room to Changning for daily living.

Changning checked the environment, nodded with satisfaction, and handed the toolbox to the handyman: "This is my aunt's thing, you can send it to the wooden room." ”

The little girl then stumbled: "Sister Shanyun, you have so much strength, I can't carry this box alone." ”

Changning smiled, found another maid to help, and instructed them to send the wood into the wooden room, while asking, "Is there any movement in the small kitchen of Qingshu Courtyard?" ”

The little girl was quite clever, and then said: "No, I heard that Aunt Gu was a little uncomfortable eating things in the small kitchen, and she lost her temper and scolded the cooks." ”

Changning clenched his fists suddenly, but his face was impassive: "Oh? Who did you hit? ”

"Who else can there be, the chef Ma who is in charge, but the entire small kitchen has been punished, Aunt Ma is old and senior, and she doesn't seem to have suffered any crimes, but she has made a big fuss." The little girl secretly glanced at Changning's expression.

said that Aunt Ma had a good relationship with her, but I don't know if it was true.

Changning heard it, and as if he was fine, he turned around and went to do something else.

The little girl shrugged her shoulders, and sure enough, the rumors were not credible.
