Chapter Twenty-Eight: Lewd Men
"Your Highness, the spies of Luoyang County have sent news that Your Highness's token has been found in our place." A man in black knelt down and said.
"Oh? But confirmed? Gu Zhiqi was playing chess alone, and after listening to the report of the spy, he was stunned by the chess pieces in his hand.
"It has been verified, and it is indeed His Highness's token." The man in black replied.
"Let's go." Gu Zhixian smiled slightly, stood up, and patted the middle hem of his robe.
"Your Highness?" The man was a little confused.
"I heard that Linglong Pavilion is going to open a new Linglong family in Luoyang County, as the prince of Nansu, he naturally wants to explore the truth. Can? The smile on Gu Zhiqi's face expanded.
"Subordinates obey." The man in black nodded, and stepped back to arrange the matter.
"I know you won't die, see you in Luoyang County." Gu Zhiqi looked at the peach tree outside the back door after the man in black left, which he ordered someone to plant half a year ago, and it was already full of peach branches at this time, and he was dizzy after the wind.
These days, it's quite comfortable for Tao Yaoyao, since she moved to Linglong's house, and opened a trail to avoid that man, she hasn't met again, Tao Yaoyao deliberately ignored a trace of expectation in her heart, and melted her enthusiasm into the opening of Linglong's house tomorrow.
In the past few days, there have been a lot more outsiders in Luoyang County, and most of these people are merchants from all walks of life, and they want to see what Linglong Pavilion is doing. The inn foot shop in Luoyang County has long been full, and the Dust Inn is no exception.
"Miss, what are you thinking?" Xiaoshan brought a pot of high-quality Bihu Jian'er, and he could smell the tea from a distance.
"Did someone send it?" Tao Yaoyao asked rhetorically.
"I just arrived, and I'm waiting in the yard." Xiaoshan put down the teapot and said.
"Well, this tea is good." Peach smelled the aroma when she got up.
"This is the Bihu green of Bihu Town, and it will come out a little bit at this time of year, and only take the tip of the tea, which is even more rare." Xiao Shan said.
"How much silver?" Tao Yaoyao took the cup that Xiao Shan poured with great interest.
"A thousand taels of silver, I only sent it to Miss to try it in the past few days." Xiao Shan said, this price is not for anyone to drink, it has to be the biggest rich man.
"How many more?" Tao Xiaoyao nodded.
"I guess I still have five or six catties, and I'm going to send them to various commercial houses." Xiaoshan thought about it.
"Yes, Ming'er will use this!" Tao Yaoyao now looks like a wealthy financier.
"Miss?" Xiaoshan was stunned, what do you mean.
"You heard it right, someone else's exchange for another one, just send our Linglong's stored value card, as for the value, you can do it yourself. This tea will be placed at the gate tomorrow, and when people come in, a cup will be given, whether they are young or poor. Tao Xiaoyao said.
"Miss, this ......" Xiao Shan understood now, but he was even more confused.
"This tea is very good, it is fragrant for thousands of miles, and people know the foundation of Linglong Pavilion before they enter the door." Xiaoshan, sometimes you can't just think about the present, you have to take a long-term view. Think about it, who are those people who patronize Linglong's house on weekdays, how have they ever tasted such good things, but it doesn't mean that they don't want to, this will come to Linglong's house to buy things cheaply and face, enough for them to brag about for a year. Are you afraid of them running? Tao Xiaoyao said sentence by sentence.
Xiao Shan pondered for a long time, his eyes were a little stunned, and he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Shan has been taught, thank you Miss for your advice." β
Tao Yaoyao saw her eyes shining, and knew that her words had made some difference. In fact, these truths are very simple in modern times, which is nothing more than casting the value of the brand, and the value of the brand is precisely formed by the accumulation of money and population.
"Let's go, go to the yard and see how those people are." Tao Xiaoyao finished speaking and went out.
When the two of them arrived in the courtyard, the Bailai people who had just been a little noisy in the courtyard suddenly fell silent, and they stared at the man in front of them. I heard that there was another owner behind Linglong Pavilion, but I didn't expect it to be so young.
"Since you were sent from there, I don't have much, just a word, I believe in your loyalty. From now on, as long as you are loyal to the Linglong family, I will naturally not lose everyone. If someone eats inside and outside, you know the methods over thereβ" Tao Yaoyao coughed twice and said lightly. She is wearing men's clothes, and her delicate appearance will naturally be considered a bully.
"The little ones don't dare." Everyone was taken aback and replied. It seems that this young man is not simple, and some people have lowered their heads, not daring to recklessly kill a large number of peaches.
The turnip and stick policy works well anywhere, Tao Xiaoyao thought to himself.
"Someone will arrange it for you later, and some of you will be security guards, mainly responsible for the security of Linglong's family. Some will work as waiters, mainly to explain to customers or give directions, pick up goods and other goods. Some of them will go to make plain clothes, and you will wear ordinary clothes, but if you find anything stealing or stealing in Linglong's house, you must be stolen and sent directly to the yamen. Do you understand? Tao Xiaoyao roughly explained.
"The little one understands." Everyone replied that they were originally people from Xianchilou, and their loyalty was guaranteed, and they were also very good at these brainless jobs.
"That's good, let's divide it." After Tao Yaoyao glanced at Xiao Shan, Xiao Shan sent a plate of silver down one after another.
"This silver is for you to settle down in the vicinity, if the Linglong family develops well, it will naturally settle down for you. But if you use this money to poison wine, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Xiaoshan said coldly.
"Thank you, Childe." Everyone is grateful, most of them have nothing to rely on, no place to live, and they came to think of eating a full meal, but they didn't expect to feel at home today, which made them really grateful in their hearts, and some even knelt down and kowtowed to Taoyao.
"Alright, let's go get the work." Xiaoshan knew that her master didn't love others to kneel on her, so she hurriedly commanded.
When they heard this, they also said yes, and then dispersed and took their own lives.
"Xiaoshan, the sky is so good, let's go for a walk." Tao Xiaoyao suddenly felt in a good mood, and the busyness of the past few days and the entanglement of the previous days were all swept away.
"Okay, Childe hasn't visited Luoyang County yet." It's rare that the young lady is interested, and of course she will.
Xiao Shan followed Tao Yao to sway around the street at will.
"Did you say it, Linglong's house will open tomorrow!"
"You know, you know, isn't that the one who sells jewelry?"
"No, it's a grain and oil seller."
"You're not right, I heard that everything is sold!"
"You boast of cowhide, you sell everything, even the grocery store doesn't sell clothes! That's not a big face! Hahaha! β
"Hahaha! You're right! Who's to say it isn't. β
"Ming'er went to join in the fun, but I didn't expect Linglong Pavilion's business to become bigger, and I didn't know that the sky was high and the earth was thick!"
"Good! Let's be in this together! β
"My rice is gone, and I say it's a lot less silver than the outside, so I'll buy some tomorrow."
"I'll have to see if there's any needlework."
"I'll see if there's a broom."
"Why don't you go and see if there's any paste! Hahaha! Full of mush! People who sell jewelry can sell brooms! Could it be made of gold? β
"Hahaha!"
"Childe, these people are so annoying!" Xiao Shan pouted and was a little displeased.
"Haha, they're right!" Tao Xiaoxiao laughed, and those words were listened to by the two of them word for word.
"Childe!" Xiaoshan stomped his foot.
"These are just ordinary people, and what they think is very normal. Whether it's good or bad, as long as you can let people go to Linglong's house, it's a good thing, so whether you can keep people next is the key. So we don't have to pay attention to those opponents who deliberately spread rumors, they not only did not harm us, but helped us a lot. Tao Yaoyao said with a smile.
"Childe is wise." Xiao Shan nodded, she still has a lot of shortcomings, she looked at Tao Yaoyao's bright side face, indescribable admiration and yearning.
"You stupid girl." Seeing her nymphomaniac, Tao Yao pointed at her little head with her index finger.
"This son, please stay-" Tao Yaoyao was frolicking with Xiao Shan, and was suddenly stopped by a person, not one person to be exact, but a person and a group of people who followed behind.
Tao Xiaoxiao turned her head and didn't speak, just looked at the person coldly.
"Don't get me wrong, there is no malice in the next place, I just want to discuss one thing with my son." The man looked sven, and although he was not handsome, he was also dignified.
"Oh?" Tao Yao snorted coldly, her natural sensitivity made her dislike the lewd man in front of her.
"My young master is interested in your maidservant, let me know each other!" At this time, the little guy next to the man said with a sideways face.
Tao Yaoyao didn't even look at the little guy, and stepped directly to leave.
"Eh, wait. This is a silver ticket of 1,000 taels, how about exchanging her? The man stepped sideways to block Tao's way, took out a silver ticket from his bosom and trembled.
"Poof-" Xiao Shan laughed.
"I wonder where the girl's house is? Can it be named? The man smiled when he saw Xiaoshan, thinking that others also loved him, and couldn't help asking.
"She's laughing at you." Seeing this, Tao Yaoyao said coldly on the side.
"Buckle?" The man seemed to be a little confused.
"It's an iron rooster that doesn't pull a hair." Tao Xiaoyao was not stingy and explained generously.
"Bold! Do you know who my son-in-law is! My son-in-law is the nephew of today's Concubine Rou! How dare you talk to my son-in-law like that! The little man immediately shouted, and the people in the street seemed to have heard something, and were gathering in this area.
"Miss, we don't have to be exposed." Xiao Shan leaned closer to Tao Yaoyao's ear and said, in the eyes of the lewd man, this is a beauty who has taken a fancy to himself and wants to persuade his master.
"Don't be rude, how many times has this son said, you can't make a show of your identity! Can't you remember! The lewd man lectured with a straight face.
Concubine Rou? Tao Yaoyao was stunned, Jiang Shaoqing? That's really a narrow road! Thinking that the chill on his face became more and more obvious, he laughed vividly.
"It turned out to be a relative of Concubine Rou, and it was rude. But this girl is not a maidservant below, I'm afraid it's a child-" Tao Xiaoxiao shook her head pretending to be vague, and left, but the coldness after leaving made the man shiver.
"Girlβ" The lewd man saw Xiao Shan following behind and was about to summon him.
"Childe doesn't need to say much, take his leave." Xiao Shan was a little displeased when he saw Tao Yaoyao, and hurriedly said.
"Go and follow and see what comes from." The lewd man's eyes rolled twice, thinking about the words of Tao Yao's deception, and he was reluctant to be beautiful, so he made a crooked idea.
"Yes!" The little man immediately ordered someone to follow.
Tao Xiaoxiao glanced behind him, and motioned for Xiaoshan not to speak, the good show was behind.
