"It's nothing, it's just pawnshops, jewelry stores, tea shops, restaurants, inns and the like."

The industry mentioned by Baili Lan can be described as all-encompassing, too general, and confusing. Xin Xiang figured it out and asked, "Girl, what kind of store does your friend want to open?" ”

"Didn't I say it just now, why, didn't Xin Xiang listen carefully?"

Xin Xiang reacted at this time, it turned out that the long list that Baili Lan said just now was not a general reference, but everyone had to open one! What kind of routine is this, what kind of routine is this!

Xin Xiang felt the smell of scheming again, but he couldn't tell where Bai Lilan calculated him, so he had to answer stubbornly, "Isn't the girl joking?" How can one person open so many stores? I hope the girl won't entertain the old man! ”

"How can I have the strength to talk nonsense with you!" Bai Lilan gradually restrained her smile, and her serious appearance made people tremble, and she didn't dare to make a mistake, "I have many friends, and they all want to start a career in Nanzhao." However, if you are not familiar with the place and do not understand the customs and habits, it is inevitable that you will go the wrong way and do troublesome things. If you have Xin Xiang's help, you can give him some pointers, and send a plaque when you open, and the 50,000 taels will be purchased and sold. Xin Xiang can think about it himself, whether it is faster to get together 50,000 taels of gold, or to help me build those shops quickly. In short, in these two cases, no matter which one Xin Xiang finishes, I will return the Panshan Stone as it is. ”

Hearing these words, Xin Xiang naturally knew what to do. Stretching out his hand to take the detailed list handed over by Qiushuang, Xin Xiang said with a mouthful, "Girl, don't worry, as long as your friends are doing legitimate business, the old man will definitely send someone to take care of them." I wonder when the girl wants the store to open? ”

"The sooner nature is, the better. People are ready, the location has been carefully selected, just need Xin Xiang to announce to various departments, we will open immediately to welcome guests, Xin Xiang is also a good thing. ”

This sounds like it is for the sake of Xin Xiang's consideration and to alleviate his worries and troubles. But only Xin Xiang himself knows that he is afraid that he will fall for this little fox again!

After Xin Xiang left in disgrace, Baili Lan left and ordered Dongxue to contact the people of Baixiangmen, and asked him to send a number of elites to Nanzhao to take on the leadership of each rudder. And the cost of opening a rudder is to be solved by Baili Lan himself. Such a good thing, if Dugu Jiuhe hears it, he will definitely be happy to dance.

"Eldest sister, if we contribute money and efforts, won't this transaction be a loss?" Everyone was busy, only Xiaobao sat on the chair, dangling his legs, and talking to Baililan.

"From Xiaobao's point of view, is it right or wrong for the eldest sister to make this decision?" Bai Lilan didn't answer Xiaobao's question, but asked back, wanting to hear his opinion.

Eating the crisp dates in his mouth, Xiaobao meditated seriously for a moment, and then said, "Xiaobao thinks that this place is what we are looking for, and the money is also spent by us. In this way, the eldest sister is the boss behind these shops. How much money can a shop make, if there is the cooperation of Baixiangmen, we can take on some other business. I heard my brother say that Baixiangmen's business is very expensive, and if you receive three or five pieces a month, you can eat and drink spicy food all month. The combination of these two, the wealth is not rolling in? And the eldest sister designed to drag Xin Xiang into this matter, but also to use his power to expand the popularity of the store. Many dignitaries will patronize, not to mention bringing wealth, but also benefiting the Baixiangmen in the shadows, so that employers have a sense of trust. Anyway, no matter how you think about it, it is far more beneficial to us than the 50,000 taels of gold. Eldest sister thinks, my analysis is correct? ”

Patting the top of Xiaobao's hair with satisfaction, Baili Lan smiled, "It seems that during this period of time, your cultivation with Senior Brother Dianhai has made you improve a lot. In the future, you have to work harder, and if one day you can put these schemes before others think, then you can become a teacher. ”

Xiaobao was very happy to get Baili Lan's praise, and immediately dragged Dianhai and shouted to continue studying. Looking at his high energy, Baili Jun also bent the corners of his mouth slightly.

"I heard that yesterday Dianhai invited you to visit the flower market, but you refused. Why, can't you let go of Shangguan Yan in your heart? ”

Just as he was concentrating, Bai Lijun suddenly heard Bai Li Lan say this, his face was stunned, and then he lowered his head and said, "That person's life and death have nothing to do with me for a long time. Yesterday I was just tired and didn't want to go out. Besides, the eldest sister is skillful, and the flowers bought outside are not as beautiful as those planted by the eldest sister herself, so what do you do when you buy them back, it will only increase the laughing stock. ”

"You're complimenting me on my work." Carelessly putting the pruned flower branches into the vase, Baili Lan said leisurely, "Even if I don't say it, you know that Dian Hai is a person worthy of trust. Didn't you say last time that you had already promised someone, and Dianhai was the best candidate. If you haven't moved until now, I'm afraid you'll be suspicious. ”

"Presumably, the eldest sister has already thought of a countermeasure in her heart. That's according to what the eldest sister said. I don't have an opinion. ”

Baili Jun's appointed attitude made Bai Li Lan stop the movements in her hand, she looked back at Bai Li Jun with a frown, and her tone became calm.

"It's just a little thing that makes you so sad. What would you do if you were to be held accountable for a major matter of human life in the future? Or do you come back crying and hide behind me? ”

was reprimanded by Baililan, Bailijun couldn't raise his head, and tightened his skirt, looking embarrassed.

Looking at her cowardly appearance, Bai Lilan was even more angry. Putting down the things in his hand, he walked in front of Baili Jun in three or two steps, Baili Lan raised his voice and asked, "You are no longer the fourth lady of Dingnan Mansion who has no worries about food and clothing, no matter what happens, you have to learn to solve it yourself." Yes, you are by my side now, and I can shelter you from the wind and rain. But when you get married in the future, do you want me to be by your side every day and help you solve those troublesome women in the house? If you don't take advantage of the time to learn to be brave and decisive, I'm afraid you will have to repeat the old path in Dingnan Palace, that is, to be a shadow, whether it is a master or a minion, you will be regarded as a dispensable shadow! Life has been in a hurry for decades, and you are willing to spend it in obscurity? ”

"I'm not reconciled, but what else can I do!" Baili Jun's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't understand what was wrong with the eldest sister today, and he had to say these uncomfortable words again, "My reputation has ruined Shangguan Yan, just like you said, except for Senior Brother Dianhai, I'm afraid there are no other men here who want me." But I have no feelings for him, and I am even afraid of having feelings for men, and I am afraid that like last time, I will give everything I have, but in exchange for betrayal! The eldest sister is the pride of the sky, fearless, and nothing can trap you. You are a height that I can't compare to in my life, so I don't think you can ask me with your requirements, I can't do it! ”

After Bailijun finished speaking, after a long time, he didn't hear Baililan's voice. Baili Jun must have hurt Bai Lilan with his excessive words and made her angry with herself. In fact, now for myself, who to marry is different, why not follow the eldest sister's meaning and marry Senior Brother Dianhai? I'm so impulsive!

Baili Jun raised his head and wanted to say something to remedy it. But what caught the eye was that Baili Lan was playing with flowers and plants with peace of mind. When she found her gaze, she put down the scissors in her hand and said casually, "Calm down?" ”

Stunned, Bailijun nodded slightly.

"Now that you've calmed down, listen to me carefully." Bai Lilan said with a gesture that no one could refuse, "Who said I wouldn't be afraid? What have I been through, and do you know? Everyone is not born cold, calculating. It's just that in order to survive, I have to force myself to learn those cruel ways of life. If you don't learn, you can, so clean yourself up and prepare to be someone else's prey with peace of mind. Anyone who wants to live must start calculating, calculating how to get rid of the injustice of fate, and how not to be led by the nose. The fact that you can now say what you just said willfully proves that you have not yet encountered the cliff of life. The person you want to be is up to you. You are my sister, I don't want to watch you be like those mediocre women in this world, husband and child, fighting with mother-in-law, fighting with concubines, and concubines. What do you get by living a life of confusion? It's just that your children are living the same life as you. Haven't you had enough of this cycle of life? Do you want your children to repeat the same mistakes? Bailijun, there is not much time left for you now, and it is up to you how to choose. If you really don't like Dianhai, then tomorrow you will go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet with me, there are many celebrities and squires there, see if you can find a wishful husband for you. In short, whoever it is, after three months, you have to get married! ”

"Three months? Eldest sister, why are you in such a hurry? ”

Taking a deep breath, Bai Lilan's patience was not much left, and she said briefly, "Are you really a fool to be a member of the official family?" It won't be long before they become suspicious of us. Moreover, Xin Xiang is on our side, which makes it easier for them to seize the handle, saying that these things are all instigated by Xin Xiang, and the purpose is to suppress political opponents. Xin Xiang can naturally keep the peace, but what about us? He may not have that much energy to scruple about it. So, you have to marry someone early to get rid of suspicion. ”

"If I get married, will I be separated from my eldest sister?"

"That's natural, although Nanzhao is open, but it is not to the point where the bride is allowed to leave at will. However, if you marry Dianhai, the situation is different. He is his own person, even if he doesn't follow me, he will take you back to Wulao Mountain. There are beautiful mountains and rivers, far away from distractions, and it is the best place for people of your temperament to live. That's why, I always wish you could marry Dianhai. But if you don't like it, I can't force you. The road is your own, and it's up to you how you want to go. ”

Lowering his head lightly, Baili Jun said softly, "Ajun, thank you for your hard work. It's just that can I think about it carefully and reply to the eldest sister? ”
