Chapter 138: Cutting in line

Grandmother Lin immediately said: "Then I'll walk back, it's still early, I'll go shopping too." ”

Lin Run said: "Auntie, just take the car back, I'll ride back in a while, and let the coachman take you wherever you want to visit, anyway, he will be fine when he goes back." ”

After that, he and Lin Qingwan sent people to the carriage together, and only after seeing the people leave did they turn around and look at Lin Qingwan, "Sister Wan'er, is this putting the treasure on Brother Xin'er?" ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "Fifth brother is joking, is the treasure in my hand just a guard?" ”

"The guard in my sister's hand is not an ordinary person," Lin Run said: "It's difficult for the clan to borrow one from you, but you gave him one without blinking." ”

Lin Run shook his head and said, "Just trust him like that?" ”

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious," Lin Qingwan said confidently: "I still have this way of getting along, Lin Xin is a good boy, as long as he can live, he will not be ordinary." ”

Lin Run raised his eyebrows, and his heart moved, "If that's the case, it's my Lin family's luck." ”

The two got into the carriage, Lin Run pushed the window open and fixed it, and asked, "Where does Sister Wan want to go?" ”

"It's been a long time since I've been in the city, so the fifth brother will come with me into the city for a walk."

The carriage departed and went straight into the city.

Lin Run was curious where Lin Qingwan was going to take him.

But they really just went to the little streets, full of vendors with burdens and stalls, and the carriages were slowing down because of the congestion.

Lin Run looked left and right, but he still didn't see anything abnormal, but he could bear it, Lin Qingwan didn't say anything, he watched quietly.

It wasn't until he was about to walk out of the street that Lin Run heard a shout for sale, and then he poked his head out in surprise and looked over.

I saw two young men with baskets resting on the side of the road, shouting at the top of their voices, "Straw paper, toilet paper, Lin's straw paper, eight pennies for a knife——"

Soon a few people who looked like they were reading stepped forward to surround their baskets, and Lin Run's car was not far from them, and they happened to hear their conversation, "Maybe?" Our house is not far from here, but how much do we buy? ”

"How much do you buy? We have to have more than three cuts. ”

Those people hesitated for a moment, and finally discussed: "There are four of us, I want three knives, and they all only need two knives, can you send them?" ”

The two young men hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, as long as your home is not very far away, by the way, do you want toilet paper, just three cents." A pile that can be used for a long time. ”

A few of the scholars hesitated again, "Then let's get a stack for each of us." ”

The two young men were happy, and they picked up the basket and said, "Then the gentlemen will lead the way, and I will send it to the door for you." ”

Lin Run sat up straight silently, the carriage passed by them, and happily the two young men turned their heads to see the Lin family's carriage, they tilted their heads and looked at it, confirming that it was the car from the Lin family's courtyard and catching up, "But my aunt is inside?" ”

Lin Run coughed lightly, and was about to reprimand, Lin Qingwan was already close to the car window, raising her eyebrows and looking at them, "Is business good?" ”

The two young men grinned, "Very good, auntie, let's discuss with you, the business in Suzhou City is not good, we also want to go out, can you also lend us some silver?" ”

Before Lin Qingwan could speak, Lin Run had already appeared in front of them with a serious face, and the two of them were startled, and immediately straightened their backs and stood up, and said in unison: "Fifth Uncle is good." ”

Lin Qingwan laughed and said, "Let's go and greet your guests first, if you want to borrow money from me, you have to find a way to convince me." Lin Legend convinced me, and you obviously didn't, so I won't borrow it. ”

Then turn around and sit down, and let the coachman drive away.

The two young men looked at the carriage away with pity, but it was a pity that the fifth uncle was in the car, otherwise they still dared to think about it, since Lin Chuan could borrow money, why couldn't they?

Their ideas are much more thoughtful than Lin Chuan's.

The carriage swayed from the market in the south of the city all the way to the west of the city, and along the way, Lin Run saw many Lin clan people carrying burdens and selling paper.

And the business is not bad, Lin Run went from being surprised at the beginning to being accustomed to it, and then to being thoughtful.

He couldn't help but look at Lin Qingwan, Lin Qingwan was also surprised, looked back at him and said, "I also heard from Chief Steward Zhong that they did business so well, so I thought I would take a look if I still had time today." It was an accident. ”

Lin Run frowned and said: "Now that the output is low, they can still be safe, and in the future, when the output is high, they will inevitably compete with each other." ”

Lin Qingwan burst out laughing, leaned on the car and said, "Fifth brother is too worried, let them toss these things." Now we are the only ones who can make straw paper, and the outside straw paper has to come in from here, how much do you think they can make? ”

"Then you're asking me to come and see what they're doing?"

"I just want to see how they are doing, and also, in the future, there will be more and more people making paper in the clan, so it is better to choose a place to gather people, so as not to do it at home, the place is small, and it will pollute the water in the clan."

Lin Run frowned, "Will it pollute the water?" ”

"It's not a big problem now, because they feel sorry for lime and medicine, they are all used back and forth, and it may not be necessary in the future, so it's better to prevent problems before they happen," Lin Qingwan nodded his knees and said: "Isn't there wasteland near Linjiazhuang, dig a big pond downstream, and build a few thatched huts near there to dry paper." ”

Lin Run bowed, "You came to me to talk about this?" ”

"No," Lin Qingwan looked at the crowd outside and said, "Fifth brother, didn't I mention before that I wanted to rebuild the Lin family's army?" I live in the Lin family's courtyard, and my government army can only protect the courtyard, and I can't care about the clan. ”

Lin Run was taken aback, "Do you want the clan to build one as well?" ”

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and didn't speak.

Lin Run was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "I understand, I will discuss it with my father and two uncles." ”

Lin Qingwan curled the corners of her mouth and didn't talk about it again. She looked at the children of the Lin clan who were carrying burdens outside and drilling in all the alleys, thinking that the Lin clan composed of them would one day be able to shelter all the clansmen, not to bully others, but also not to be bullied.

The carriage stopped when it arrived at Hanmozhai, and the brothers and sisters heard the noise outside before they got off the car, Lin Qingwan opened the curtain to see, and saw that Steward Liu personally sent a group of people out, and said again and again: "I really don't hide it from you, the bamboo paper is really gone, and now the orders are scheduled for three months, you first write down the name, and I will immediately notify you to receive the goods when the time comes." ”

The person who was sent out looked displeased, "We are here from the capital, and it is not easy to go back and forth, so what's wrong with you giving us some first?" ”

Steward Liu looked embarrassed, "It's not that I don't want to be even, but I really can't get even, and it's really out of stock." ”

"Who's next? Give me his family first, don't you have new goods every day, just let them wait one more day. ”

The other party's identity is obviously not low, and Steward Liu is sweating, and he doesn't know how to refuse.

Lin Qingwan frowned, got up and got out of the car, and looked at them with a frown.

Steward Liu saw her as if he had seen a savior, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Meet my aunt and grandmother, patriarch." ”

Lin Run bowed slightly, glanced at the guests over there and said, "What's going on?" ”

"Is it Patriarch Lin?" When the other party heard Steward Liu's words, he didn't squint at Lin Qingwan, but arched his hand to Lin Run, and said with a smile: "Below is the owner of Wanshuge in the capital, this time I came specifically for bamboo paper, but I only came to know that your family's inventory was gone, so I want to ask your store to give me some." ”

He sighed with an embarrassed face: "After all, the capital is too far away from here, and it is not easy to go back and forth, so I also ask Patriarch Lin to be accommodating." ”

Lin Run looked embarrassed, although there are also bamboo paper elements in the clan, there are not many, and the dominant power is in the hands of Lin Qingwan.

The other party left Lin Qingwan, the main master, but came to him, he didn't know if the other party was embarrassed or not, anyway, he was very embarrassed.

Lin Qingwan stood aside, glanced up and down at the stupid owner, and then shook her head and entered the store.

When Steward Liu saw this, he immediately bent down and confessed to Lin Run, and turned around to chase Lin Qingwan.

Lin Run coughed lightly at the guest and said, "The owner of Wanshuge, this Hanmo Zhai is my cousin's property, I can't interfere in these things, why don't you go and talk to her?" ”

The proprietor looked sluggish.

"But my sister has always been very trustworthy, but I'm afraid that she won't be willing to cut people in line, so ......"

Xu Ling was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that the Lin family was headed by a woman, and the head of the Lin Run family couldn't speak, which was completely different from the situation of his family.

He turned his head back to look at the woman who had just entered, and couldn't help asking, "Are you talking about the girl just now?" ”

Lin Run nodded.

Xu Ling immediately turned around to chase after him, Lin Run's forehead twitched, and he thought that the other party would be somewhat embarrassed.

Lin Qingwan sat in the inner room and was comfortably holding a cup of tea.

Xu Ling broke in, and as soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said, "Xiaosheng has seen Miss Lin." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "Everyone calls me Aunt Lin, you can call me the same as them." ”

…… Auntie and grandmother.

Xu Ling raised his head and met Lin Qingwan's smiling eyes, endured it, and waved his hand again: "Aunt Lin, Grandma Lin." ”

The smile on Lin Qingwan's face deepened, and she stretched out her hand and said, "Lang Jun doesn't have to be polite, I don't know your surname." ”

"Your surname is Xu," Xu Ling said with a smile: "Speaking of which, my Wanshuge and Hanmo Zhai are still old partners, and they have been cooperating since the time when Lord Lin was there." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, lowered her head to drink tea, but her eyes glanced at Steward Liu.

Steward Liu nodded secretly, it was also because the two had cooperated for too many years that he couldn't refuse.

But my aunt and grandmother gave an order early in the morning that no one was allowed to cut in line, lest it be spread out and damage his reputation, so he would be so embarrassed.

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyelids, took a sip of tea and put it down, knocked on the table and said to Xu Ling, "I know why you came." ”

Xu Ling raised a big smile......

"However, I can't let you cut the queue," Lin Qingwan ignored the other party's suddenly frozen smile and said: "If you want to cut the line, others will also cut the line, so what's the point of queuing?" ”
