Chapter 229
Anping Tea House is half his life's work, and if he really gives up, he is really reluctant. 【Fengyun Reading Network. But seeing that the owner had given up, and many shops with the signboards of Anping Tea Shop had begun to remove their signboards and change their appearances, he was even more heartbroken.
Now that he is really desperate, he will ask shàng mén to come, in fact, he has no bottom in his heart, after all, Zhang Ji has long been different. Not only is it difficult to find tea in the tea shop, but even people have opened the business in the capital early, and even the shops with the support of nobles behind them will beg shàng mén to come. Therefore, he was really not sure that Lin Baozhu would still take the business of Anping Tea Shop in his eyes.
When he arrived at Lin Baozhu, the shopkeeper Xu stabilized his mind. Looking at his wife's bearing and posture, he really didn't dare to be casual, after all, he was asking for something and it was difficult to speak, and he couldn't talk about business like the two of them did before.
This is the first time he has come to the door since he beat Zhang Ji and his family became the protector of the country, and he saw that the spacious yard was cleaned up, and there were people guarding the left and right, and the shopkeeper Xu was already muttering in his heart. When I reached the threshold, I saw the carpet of dark red flowers laid in the room, and I didn't dare to step in.
Seeing this, Lin Baozhu repeatedly asked Chunxi, who was waiting to laugh, to open the curtain and welcome the shopkeeper Xu into the door. You can't forget your roots, and the villagers in Peachtree Bay have a lot of friendship with them, so she is willing to take care of everyone in the village. And the shopkeeper Xu has a promotion kindness to Zhang Ji, and she has also saved her life with her own masters, which she will never deny.
Seeing that the shopkeeper Xu entered the room nervously, Lin Baozhu beckoned Dongmei to move a chair for people to sit down, and then asked Xiangming to serve excellent tea. Naturally, she still has healthy jujube tea at hand.
In the second and third stages of pregnancy, she will be anemia, a few days ago she always felt dizzy and dark, after seeing the doctor, said that there was a slight blood loss. It's just that now she doesn't want to drink more bitter tonics, but likes food supplements, which she doesn't discuss with the doctor, and will raise them with red dates every day.
Shopkeeper Xu saw that Lin Baozhu did not make any anger, nor did he have the slightest look of contempt, so he was slightly relieved. Seeing her gentle attitude again, and there was no domineering and unattainable between her words, he was really relieved, and the hesitation in his heart gradually dissipated.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know how the shopkeeper is doing?" Looking at the shopkeeper Xu's cautious appearance, he didn't even dare to make big movements under his feet, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but sigh secretly, what was the difference. But there are some things she doesn't insist on, she just remembers them in her heart.
"If you go back to Madame, everything is fine." Shopkeeper Xu paused, and then said, "I haven't dealt with my wife for a day or two, and I know that my wife is kind-hearted. I don't say any pleasantries now, but I'm here to ask my wife for something."
Lin Baozhu raised her eyebrows, but looking at the sadness between the eyebrows of the shopkeeper Xu, she didn't say anything, and let people talk about it first.
"Last year, I mentioned to my wife that the owner of the Anping Tea Shop wanted to change hands," the shopkeeper Xu sighed and said tentatively, "Now the business of the tea shop has plummeted, and the owner has abandoned it, so I want to ask my wife if she is interested in the next step." Not to mention anything else, the foundation of Anping Tea Shop for many years is still there, as long as it takes a little rest, it will definitely be able to flourish again."
It was indeed a little difficult to speak at first, but when he really said it, and did not hear his wife stop him, he really let go, and his words became smoother and smoother.
In fact, if the shopkeeper Xu didn't mention it, Lin Baozhu would really forget about the stubble. It's really that she is too busy now, from the village to the capital, and then all the way back to the capital, as well as the river beach in the village and those newly developed things, because she missed a lot, so now she is willing to give it a try as soon as she has time. Even if you can't think of going out, you can wake up left and right, and maybe you will be figured out by Zhang Ji's enthusiastic "researchers".
No, a few days ago, there were a few dogs left, and they were tinkering with grafting colorful peppers. The cause was just what Lin Baozhu said casually, there were good-looking colorful peppers in many side dishes in his previous life, and he didn't expect anything originally, but he was remembered by the dog leftover.
Having said that, Anping Tea Shop is indeed older than Zhang Ji's shop. And in the town, the county, there are shops, although the business is a little lonely, but I have to admit that it is not difficult to regain.
What's more, as Zhangji's business grew bigger and bigger, Zhangji's tea became less and less crowded with merchants from all over the world who came to buy dìng gòu. If you can really take over the Anping tea shop, it will be a good thing.
is originally a person who knows the roots, and Zhang Ji is not short of silver at all now. So next, with the shopkeeper Xu as the introducer, it didn't take much effort for the original owner of Anping Tea Shop to talk about this business with Shi Dayong, the person in charge of Zhang Ji and now the person in charge of the external world. On the second day, the two took stock of the shops and objects, and then discounted the current price, and handed over the shops of Anping Tea Shop, together with the tea workers and the shopkeeper, to Zhang Ji at a price of 1,000 taels of silver.
Now that Lin Baozhu's body is heavy, not to mention that she is not happy to run bumpy, even Shi Dayong and Zhang Xiuniang, who are close to her, have repeatedly stopped her from running. And Mama Liu, who was sent by the Darui Palace, looked at her very seriously, for fear that she would have the right idea, and said that she would go to the county seat to sign the contract.
With such an experience, Zhang Ji's business can be said to have reached a new level. After all, Zhang Ji has a source of tea, and Zhang Ji Anping Tea Shop, which hangs a sign of Zhang Ji, has a doorway. In addition, Lin Baozhu asked the tea shop to give half a profit to the old merchants, so in just half a month, the Anping tea shop, which had been dead for many days, became prosperous again.
And the shopkeeper Xu is still the big shopkeeper of Anping Tea Shop, and Lin Baozhu only transferred an account office in the village from Taoshuwan to go over with his guys. The rest hasn't changed much.
By April, Lin Baozhu's belly began to bulge like a ball. And the eldest girl now goes to the private school every day, which is to help Lin Baozhu check the accounts, and the rest of the time will stay by her mother's side and talk to her younger brother Mèi Mèi in her mother's belly.
Lin Baozhu has never given birth to an heir, but in his previous life, he saw his senior sister get pregnant and give birth to a child after getting married, and it is said that early education is very meaningful. And now there are conditions at home, so she also asked people to collect some books for children's enlightenment, plus some small stories written by herself, so that the eldest girl can learn to interact with the baby in her belly.
Sensei said that it was a big girl, and even Zhao Di is coming over every day, from the three-character scripture to the hundred family names, it is always joyful. Both of them are unmarried children, and they have never seen the miraculous changes in the pregnancy of the people around them, and Lin Baozhu just satisfied the curiosity of the two.
In late April, news finally came from Mobei. And with the good news sent all the way to the capital, in addition to the greetings from His Royal Highness King Rui to the emperor, there was also a thick family letter from Zhang Manchu, a first-class general who protected the country.
Seeing the battle report of Mobei's victory, my heart was overjoyed. After more than half a year of campaigning, we have finally seen results. Looking at King Rui's respect and admiration for himself as a father, how could the emperor not be happy?
There is a comparison of the filial piety of King Rui who still does not forget to greet him when he fights outside, and now the fifth and sixth who are busy in the capital are busy winning over the courtiers to fight with each other, and they are more and more displeased with him. However, at present, the return date of the crown prince Rui is uncertain, and the court does need two people to act as shields, so as not to let someone do it again and move the foundation of the East Palace.
After a little glance at Zhang Man's hoarding letter that came with the good news, the emperor was full of black lines, and then rubbed his aching skull and waved his hand again and again to ask Zhang to find someone to send him to Peachtree Bay. Those short muttering words in the parents, no matter how you look at it, should not be said by a black-faced man like the protector of the country, but the fact is that it really makes the emperor feel helpless.
Originally, he thought that such a person was easier to control, but since he made King Rui the crown prince, he was really full of plans for himself as a prince. The prince is benevolent and has never been involved in partisan disputes, and now he is better friends with the trusted protector Zhang Manchu, but compared to the auxiliary generals and others who hold the safety of Gyeonggi, the foundation is still too shallow. So when the prince invited himself to Mobei, he made an exception and crossed General Xiong and ordered Zhang Manchu to accompany him.
First, he wanted to promote Zhang Manchu so that he could become the prince's right-hand man. Second, it is also to suppress other generals, so that Zhang Manchu can become the power of the crown prince.
Anyway, that's all for later. Now that he knows that the Great Zhou has won a great victory, the rebels have been pursued to the north of Mobei, and they are still fleeing, how can he still account for Zhang Manchu to come with the battle report and carry the letter, is it the same as the rules?
"Zhang Lai, drink Zhang Ji's white rooster comb today, didn't you give me some last time Chenyue entered the palace? Today, I just tasted what a good tea it was, which made so many people praise it again and again. "Since the start of the army, the emperor has not been so happy as he is today. It just so happened that he would see Zhang Manchu, the protector of the country, talking about Zhang Ji's business, and seeing the tea that was already cold at hand, he naturally ordered in a good mood.
is in a happy mood, plus the white rooster comb sent by Zhang Ji to the princess's mansion is made by Lin Baozhu himself, and the taste naturally cannot be compared to that made by ordinary tea masters. Moreover, the white rooster comb has the effect of washing the breath of the whole body, and the emperor is in a good mood at this time, and the effect is naturally twice the result with half the effort.
"The color of the tea soup is clear, the aroma is mild, and the teeth and cheeks are fragrant, and it is really a good tea."
So, the emperor drank only half a cup, and he praised it repeatedly. In the end, he personally decided to pay tribute tea in the future and add Zhang Ji white rooster comb.
If the emperor only said that the white rooster comb would be fine, he also added a sentence of Zhang Ji. In this way, there is no need to make a choice at all, and in the future, the tribute tea white rooster comb can only be made by Zhang Ji's family.
