Chapter 168: The Place of Intelligence Gathering

Luo Jingzhou only instantly sensed the benefits of this private room.

Whether it is a dignitary or a powerful family in Beijing, or a wealthy businessman, who can have no secrets, sometimes it is inevitable to mention a few words during the banquet, which requires an extremely private and safe place, and the first floor of Yun Jinchu can provide this kind of "service".

Most importantly, it ensures privacy and keeps an eye on what's going on downstairs.

If you come here to discuss important matters, you don't have to worry about being blocked, even if there is something going on upstairs, you can find it at any time.

In such a good place, one word spreads, ten spreads hundreds, and the number of people who come will inevitably increase day by day.

The more secrets you talk about, the more you can get in touch with as an owner.

This......

Luo Jingzhou couldn't help but glance at Yun Jinchu, did she do it on purpose? Or is it unintentional?

Of course, Yun Jinchu did it on purpose, her foundation in the capital was too shallow, and the Song family couldn't use it often, and the secret agent of Zhennan Wangfu was not a spy she cultivated herself after all, so she might not be dedicated to her.

She wants to collect intelligence, collect information about the great cause of the court and the people, and a conspicuous place like the Qinglou is naturally not usable, but if this first floor is done well, and even gradually evolves into a place where literati and scholars gather, attracting courtiers and officials to come, there will naturally be countless news.

Of course, she is a simple and kind little white flower on her face, Yun Jinchu didn't seem to notice Luo Jingzhou's sight, and said with a light smile on her face: "I used to like to go out to play when I was in Jiangnan, but there are not many places for women to drink tea and talk and laugh. ”

Luo Jingzhou saw that she was serious, as if it was really just to satisfy her "selfish desires" that she had not been able to achieve before.

Seeing that she only smiled lightly as if she didn't mean anything else, Luo Jingzhou could only put the doubts just now into his heart, feeling that he was thinking too much.

Luo Qingyu didn't think so much, and he didn't notice the usefulness of the first floor, he leaned on the window with some curiosity and said: "When I came just now, I saw a lot of calligraphy and paintings hanging below, and your restaurant hasn't opened yet, why are there already people coming?" ”

Sun Yilan smiled: "The fourth prince is talking about those students, right?" ”

"Students?" Luo Qingyu was surprised.

Sun Yilan said: "Isn't this year's township examination about to start, some of them are students from Beijing Middle School, and some are students from other towns who have passed the township examination and plan to participate in the spring festival next year. ”

"The place behind the first floor is very large, and it is not easy for the princess to pity these students, so she chose two separate buildings in the back room, and provided these students with a low price to live, and also purchased their calligraphy and paintings to deduct accommodation and meals.

Luo Qingyu suddenly heard this: "So the calligraphy and paintings hanging in your building are all those students?" ”

"Not exactly."

Yun Jinchu said with a light smile, "Although I pity them for their difficult situation, they still have to do business in the end, so I only choose some of the most good calligraphy and paintings to hang, of course, if they don't feel ashamed and feel that they have ruined the face of the readers, they can also do some work in the first floor to earn money." ”

When Luo Qingyu heard this, he didn't feel that Yun Jinchu was stingy at all, but had an idea that the girl in front of him was really different.

Although he came from a wealthy background, he also knew how difficult it was for a commoner family to support a scholar.

If the family is in Beijing, it is fine, but if students from other places want to go to Beijing to catch the exam, it is very difficult, not to mention the long distance, some remote areas just to enter Beijing have to walk for several months, that is, the rent and various expenses after entering Beijing are not affordable by ordinary people.

Some students enter Beijing half a year or even a year in advance, and most of them want to find a college in Beijing to adapt for a period of time, and they can also find a job to support the next spring.

What Yun Jinchu did seemed inconspicuous, but it was a real benefit to students.

Not to mention Luo Qingyu, even Luo Jingzhou has a different view of Yun Jinchu.

"The princess is righteous." Loking state praised.

Yun Jinchu said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I am also selfish, these students are depressed at the moment, but maybe it is the hidden dragon in the abyss, I think I can help them today, in case a champion comes out of the first floor in the next year, I will pick up the cheap." ”

She made her thoughts clear, and Luo Jingzhou not only didn't feel bad, but looked at her higher.

She has this kind of selfishness that everyone will have, but there are few who can really benefit others, after all, once every three years, there is only one champion among thousands of students, who can be sure that these people who live on the first floor can really come out? Yun Jinchu seems to be playing an opportunity, but in fact, he pays more than he gets.

Not to mention others, it is Luo Jingzhou himself, if he is asked to sponsor a few students who look like they have a future before the spring, it is okay, but like Yun Jinchu, everyone will help him, and everyone will help him, and he will be reluctant to do it for more than half a year.

After all, this is a big expense, who can be sure that there will be a return?

……

"The princess, the owner, the wine is here."

There was a knock outside the door, and Liu Sanniang's voice came in faintly.

After Sun Yilan let people in, she saw Liu Sanniang leading people to bring in food and wine one after another.

Sun Yilan said: "The prince and the princess eat first, and I still have to keep an eye on the things in the building." ”

"You go get busy first." Yun Jinchu said.

Sun Yilan smiled and saluted a few people and withdrew.

Yun Jinchu and Mo Xuanchen had eaten, but the uncle and nephew of the Luo family had not yet had lunch, and the two accompanied them to eat some, and Luo Jingzhou and the others couldn't wait to start tasting wine.

Now there are only four kinds of wine in the building, in addition to the one that the Luo family had tasted before, there is a pot of spirits, fruit wine and sake, and after tasting them respectively, Luo Qingyu held the pot of wine with the highest degree and the most pungent aroma and said with sparkling eyes: "It's delicious!" ”

Luo Jingzhou is particularly fond of the mellow taste but not irritating sake, he tasted the faint aroma of wine left in his mouth, the wine is smooth and not irritating through the throat, there is both the smell of wine, and there is an indescribable freshness, and when the wine is swallowed, there is a faint sweetness in the aftertaste.

Luo Jingzhou couldn't help but say, "What is this wine called?" ”

"March of Spring."

"What about me?" Luo Qingyu hurriedly asked.

"Blaze."

The uncles and nephews of the Luo family all felt that the name was just right.

Yun Jinchu said with a smile: "Actually, there is a kind of wine in this building called Immortal Drunk, which is better than what you drink, but it is still in the cellar and can only be sold on the day it opens." ”

"Immortal Drunken ......"

Luo Jingzhou smacked the name in his mouth, only the few they have tasted are already excellent, what can it look like if they are better than these? The little hesitation in his heart instantly dissipated, and he turned his head and said, "Princess Shi, I have a business here, I don't know if Princess Shizi is willing to do it." ”
