As the night gets deeper, the day gets colder.

The charcoal in the furnace fire burned for a long time and covered with a layer of white ash, and the cold wind penetrated through the window, scattering the ashes.

At present, the market of charcoal has seriously deviated from its own value in the context of existing production technology and market, and Zhu Chengjun knows that it is time to find another way.

Shen Ze and Xu Xiao saw Zhu Chengjun frowning at the charcoal fire, and consciously held their breath and condensed.

"Gaga...... Chirping...... ...... door was pushed open, and a cold wind blew in.

The cold wind blew on his face, and Zhu Chengjun's train of thought was interrupted.

Zhu Chengjun's eyelids lifted slightly, and saw Xiang'er walking in with a tray in both hands, Xiang'er was afraid of the cold wind entering the house, so she used her slender body to block the door as much as possible, showing her legs and waist and covering the door with her back.

Xiang'er's series of subtle actions Zhu Chengjun saw it in his eyes, it was the first time he had been taken care of so intimately after coming to this world for so long, and he suddenly felt a warm flow in his heart.

“…… Miss Xiang'er. As for the question of Xu Xiao, Shen Ze hesitated for a while before speaking.

Xiang'er responded to the two of them with a slight bow, and her slender and slender body came to Zhu Chengjun's side like a weak willow supporting the wind, gently put down the tray, and then took a small bowl of porridge and held it in front of Zhu Chengjun with both hands, and said softly: "Son, the slave family boiled lotus seed porridge, drink a bowl while it is hot to warm your body." ”

Zhu Chengjun took the steaming lotus seed porridge and asked casually, "Have you eaten it?" ”

"There's still in the kitchen, Xiang'er will eat it later." Xiang'er stood on one side with low eyebrows, graceful and lovely.

"Give them both a bowl too." Zhu Chengjun instructed Xiang'er.

"Don't work for Miss Xiang'er, let's just do it ourselves." Xu Xiao and Shen Ze hurriedly waved their hands.

Although the two didn't know how Zhu Chengjun would place this woman, they thought it was always right to behave respectfully and politely.

Zhu Chengjun saw the expressions of the two and said in his heart: Is it a misunderstanding of us.

Xiang'er saw that Zhu Chengjun was eating with relish, and felt satisfied for a while, knowing that the three of them still had important matters to discuss, so she immediately bowed her body and said goodbye, saying: "Son, you are busy, Xiang'er won't bother, so go back to the room to make the bed for Son." As soon as the words fell, Xiang'er felt that what she said was too explicit, and immediately blushed and ran away.

The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is easy to think about, and Zhu Chengjun's eyes couldn't help but widen.

"Ahem......" A mouthful of hot porridge choked Zhu Chengjun's face red.

"That...... If the proprietor has no other command, he will rest early. Shen Ze got up and prepared to retire.

"The younger brother has also eaten well, and the eldest brother will ...... if he has no other instructions."

Zhu Chengjun saw that the two of them were becoming more and more presumptuous, so he immediately glanced at the two of them, and said with a straight face: "I see that the newly recruited servants and nurses have no rules, give you a month to teach and teach well, and make sure they are reborn." ”

"Big brother, don't worry, I have almost mastered your training methods, and I guarantee that you will see a well-trained nursing home brigade in a month." Xu Xiao patted his chest and promised.

Shen Ze met Zhu Chengjun's gaze, knowing that it was his time to perform, and without waiting for the owner to speak, he took the lead and said, "Is the owner ready to switch to other businesses?" ”

"In the current chaotic situation, what is the fastest way to make money?" Zhu Chengjun asked.

Shen Ze felt that the owner was knowingly asking, and replied: "Grain, medicinal herbs, salt, iron, and tea can still break into it with our existing capabilities." ”

Since ancient times, no matter how bad salt and iron is, it has been a joint venture between government and business, and no one in the DPRK and China has been able to obtain a business license certificate at all.

Zhu Chengjun knows that if he wants to get a piece of the pie from all walks of life, it is easy to be squeezed out by his peers.

"Business is all over the world, goods are all over the world, what does a word mean?" Zhu Chengjun intends to take the school Shen Ze.

Shen Ze frowned, his eyes lit up in an instant, and he was excited, and said: "The meaning of the owner is to establish a huge business network that can be plugged in no matter what kind of business, as long as there is an opportunity to make money in any industry, we can intervene the fastest and most accurately to make a profit!" ”

"You're impressing me more and more." After listening to Shen Ze's recovery, Zhu Chengjun was greatly satisfied, and then said: "To build such a huge business network, just think about it with our current strength, and of course, it can also be regarded as a grand goal that we have been striving for all our lives." With our current strength, it is not difficult to build a small comprehensive business network in Xiaozhongli County. ”

Zhu Chengjun immediately said the ideas and plans in his heart, based on the new charcoal that is now being popular, it blossomed in all directions, and then began to penetrate into all walks of life with the business network that was built.

The grand blueprint depicted by Zhu Chengjun made Shen Ze feel more and more enthusiastic the more he listened, if he could really unfold them one by one, it would no longer be an unattainable dream to do all the business in the world with such a business model.

"The owner is talented, Shen Ze is convinced!" Shen Ze immediately bowed down and admired Zhu Chengjun so much that he threw himself to the ground.

Zhu Chengjun personally helped Shen Ze up and ordered: "After the charcoal coupons are realized tomorrow, you will immediately take down the stores in the county town and cities while the current stores are cheap, this is the first step for us to create a grand cause, and I will leave this matter to you." ”

"The subordinates will live up to the trust of the son!" Shen Ze knew that this was Zhu Chengjun's supreme trust in him, and with such a boss to work hard, the future must be limitless, after listening to the blueprint drawn by Zhu Chengjun, Shen Ze's original intention to earn the first pot of gold and set up his own door instantly dissipated.

The conversation was in full swing, and the three of them were still unsatisfied until late at night.

Zhu Chengjun returned to the main house belonging to the owner of this mansion, and when he saw that the lights were still on in the room, he couldn't help but think of the 'wife' at home, and he had mixed feelings for a while.

Throwing away complicated thoughts, he pushed open the door and came to the bed, and Zhu Chengjun saw that Xiang'er was sleeping sweetly. The heat emitted by the charcoal fire warmed Xiang'er's white jade-like cheeks to white and red, as if dyed with a layer of rouge.

A picture of a beautiful begonia sleeping in spring was in front of him, and Zhu Chengjun felt that his eyes were deeply attracted.

"Huh...... Hey, Childe, are you done? Ah......h

After getting out of bed, Xiang'er did not forget to fold the warm quilt again. After making the bed, Xiang'er floated to her like a shy elf, and a pair of soft little hands reached over to untie Zhu Chengjun's wide clothes.

"Xiang'er, serve the child...... "At this moment, Xiang'er's white and tender pretty face is like a persimmon in late autumn."......

Zhu Chengjun didn't stop Xiang'er's gentle service, and let her take away the excess burden on her body.

"When the snow melts, it's the coldest, so Xiang'er will go and prepare hot water for her son to soak her feet." Xiang'er turned around with a red face.

As soon as the quilt was lifted, a rich fragrance came to his nose, and the quilt full of beautiful body fragrance caused Zhu Chengjun's heart to sway and sway, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly suppressed the heart in his heart.

After a while, Xiang'er came to the couch with hot foot-washing water.

Enjoying the gentle and thoughtful service of the beauty, Zhu Chengjun looked at Xiang'er kneeling in front of his eyes and said, "You don't have to wronged yourself, you are free from the moment you come out of the Piaoxiang Courtyard." ”

Xiang'er didn't speak, took a towel to wipe the water on Zhu Chengjun's feet, moved the footbasin away, stood in front of the bed with her delicate head lowered, and said with a stunned face, "Although the world is big, Xiang'er finds that there is no place for herself at all, besides, ...... Xiang'er doesn't know any other skills to make a living...... Childe, is this going to drive Xiang'er away? Before the words fell, Xiang'er met Zhu Chengjun's eyes with a pair of pear blossoms and rain.

Zhu Chengjun avoided Xiang'er's pitiful eyes and said, "You misunderstood what I meant, you can stay during this time, think about it in your spare time, plan more for yourself, and tell me at any time when you think about it." ”

Zhu Chengjun is giving her the right to choose her life, Xiang'er doesn't think so, thinking that Zhu Chengjun is driving her away.

"Does Childe dislike Xiang'er for having fallen into a green building and her body is not clean?" Xiang'er said with tears in her eyes.

The more he continued to talk like this, the more indescribable it became, Zhu Chengjun hurriedly changed the topic and said, "You still have family?" ”

Xiang'er shook her head helplessly, seeing that the sadness on Xiang'er's face was even stronger, Zhu Chengjun blamed herself in her heart, with her experience, even if she went home, she might not be able to live a normal life. Even if a woman in the Qinglou is good, in the face of secular prejudice and the colored eyes of ordinary people, she is destined to gossip and cynicism.

"Childe, just let Xiang'er stay by your side." Xiang'er immediately knelt down and begged bitterly.

"Get up." Zhu Chengjun sighed secretly.

"Childe, did you promise Xiang'er?" Xiang'er was still kneeling and reluctant to get up, and her eyes were full of tears.

Zhu Chengjun motioned for Xiang'er to sit up, and said earnestly: "I won't mention these words again in the future, it's up to you to decide whether to go or stay." ”

"Hmm." Xiang'er wiped the tears from her face with her sleeves and cast a grateful look at Zhu Chengjun.

Zhu Chengjun looked aside and asked, "What was your previous surname and what was your name?" ”

"The slave's surname is Lin, Lin Xiang'er." Xiang'er rubbed her sleeves and replied.

Zhu Cheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Change your name, just start a new life from this moment." ”

"Son, please, give a name." Xiang'er saw that Zhu Chengjun didn't want to see her crying, so she immediately lowered her head.

"Birds love the forest, I will call you Bird'er in the future, Lin Bird." Zhu Chengjun smiled.

Xiang'er smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said in a greasy voice: "Just follow the son." ”

"It's late at night, go down and rest." Zhu Chengjun saw that Yu'er was in a cowardly mood, and unintentionally glanced at the huge room, this newly bought house has not yet had time to buy enough living needs.

Before Zhu Chengjun could speak, Yu'er took off the white dress on her body, and her clothes fell like lily petals, revealing her round and white lotus arms. Zhu Chengjun was frightened by the sudden fragrant scene, and hurriedly stopped Yu'er's little hand that wanted to untie the profane clothes, and said sternly in an undoubted tone: "Put it on." ”

Zhu Chengjun pushed Xiang'er's warm quilt inside, and he used another quilt to wrap his body and cover his head and sleep.

There was a steady breathing sound in his ears, and after confirming that he was asleep, Xiang'er half stood up, and a pair of tender eyes were full of his peaceful sleep at the moment. Yu'er silently recited the new name he gave herself over and over again in her heart, and said secretly: Flying birds love the forest...... Eagle...... Childe, you are the 'forest' of the eagle.

Zhu Chengjun, who was asleep, suddenly turned over, so startled that Yu'er hurriedly lay down, and repeatedly confirmed that the embarrassment he was staring at him just now was not discovered, and then he hid in the quilt with a thumping little heart, and was shy.
