Chapter 294: Merchant

In Jinjia Village, a merchant carrying a burden is shaking a rattle in his hand, there are basically no people in the village during the day, the older children go up the mountain to chop firewood, and the younger children are either in the mountains or in the river, and most of them can't stay at home.

In addition to the old ones who are really inconvenient to go out of the house with their legs and feet, the legs and feet are also diligent people, most of them go up the mountain to fetch firewood, no way, the young people in the village are now busy and have no time to go up the mountain to fetch firewood, and the old ones are reluctant to buy firewood money and have to go on their own, so there is basically no one in Jinjia Village during the day.

The merchant carried the burden around the village, and today he had only one goal, that is, the Ji family of the Su family's big house, according to the news that their people got, the people of the Su family's old house will occasionally come to the village to hang around.

The merchant was not disappointed, and soon saw a woman walking towards him, the merchant had seen the portrait of the man in the old mansion earlier, although it was a little different, but he could confirm that the woman walking opposite was his target.

The merchant shook the rattle and greeted him with a smile.

"Eldest sister, there are a lot of new goods today, why don't you see if there is anything you like?"

Ji was also bored in the village, and he couldn't find someone to talk to, so when he saw this merchant, he saw a lot of things in his burden on both sides, so he stopped to see that he didn't plan to buy it.

She is now the eldest lady of the Su family, and if she wants to buy something, she has to go to the shops in the city to buy it, what kind of thing is the merchant Ying, she will be able to see it, but she forgot that when the merchant entered the village in her hometown, she was so excited to pick up the goods.

Seeing Ji pulling the goods with his hands, the merchant knew that she had no intention of buying it, so he hurriedly started talking.

"Eldest sister, why haven't I seen you when I came to the village to sell goods, you are not from Jinjia Village, right?"

Ji Shi's eyes rolled when he heard the merchant's words.

"How often do you come to this village?"

"Look at what the eldest sister said, my father's generation did this, and my generation has been doing it for almost ten years, don't say it's Jinjia Village, there is nothing I don't know about the nearby villages."

"You know the Su family in the village, right?"

Most of the people in Jinjia Village have the surname Jin, and there are several other surnames, but there is only one surname Su, which is the Su Lao Er family who moved over last year.

"You're asking the right person, why don't I know the Su family, didn't they just moved to Jinjia Village last year."

"Yes, it's this Su family."

"But this Su family is not simple, I heard that the daughter of the Su family is going to marry Lord Yu in the future, do you know the eldest sister of Yufu?"

Ji shook her head, she really didn't know, she only knew that the father and son of the Yu family were officials in Kyoto City, but she didn't know what kind of officials they were.

"Lord Yu is a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and that little Lord Yu is even more amazing, after winning the top prize, he first went to the Hanlin Academy, and now he has been promoted by the emperor to a bachelor's degree, which is a big celebrity in front of the emperor. But then again, this Su family is really not simple, but I heard that Miss Su has been in the palace several times, and those who are officials have to give some face when they see Miss Su. ”

As soon as he heard that the merchant knew the situation of the Su family very well, Ji asked everything he wanted to ask.

"Then you know the Su family's workshop, right?"

"I don't know this, the Su family's workshop has opened several, and the bacon sold by his bacon shop is made by their own workshop, the bacon is really a fragrance, many big families in the city go to his house to buy bacon, and last winter, his family had to earn tens of thousands of taels a month for the shop alone."

Ji Shi was stunned when he heard this, I dripping a mother, so much silver.

As soon as the merchant saw Ji's appearance, he knew that she didn't know, and he said it more energetically.

"This is still the most unprofitable shop in the Su family, and the newly opened restaurant behind it was opened by the eldest young master who his family just recognized, the one who used to be the head of the Bai family, the Bai family's business is very large, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the richest man in Kyoto City, the business of the restaurant he opened can be bad, and at least tens of thousands of taels of income a month.

Let's talk about the rouge shop that the Su family just opened, and the business is even more terrible, and it can't stop at least 100,000 a month. ”

Ji's eyes were red when he heard this, the second family's business was so profitable, and they lied to them that they didn't make money, and when she went back later, she told her mother-in-law that this family must be divided.

"And you know that these fields next to Jinjia Village account for more than half of the Su family's fields alone, and his family's fields must be at least thousands of acres."

The merchant is bigger, in fact, whether the Su family's shop is so profitable, how can he be a spy who inquires about the news, anyway, it is right to say that it is bigger.

"But eldest sister, although the Su family is rich, I advise you not to get too close to his family."

When the originally fiery heart heard this, it was like being poured a scoop of cold water.

"Big brother, how do you say this, you have to explain it to me."

"Actually, it's nothing to tell you, there are many people in the city who know about this, saying that the Su family has offended a great person, and I am afraid that the future will not be better, and it is difficult to say whether there is a life or not."

The Ji family knew that the Su family had offended people, but they didn't expect that even the merchants who walked the streets and alleys knew that the offending thing was not known to almost everyone in Kyoto City.

"Big brother. Let me tell you the truth, I am a relative of the Su family, and I came to join the Su family a few days ago, but when I heard you say this, I don't dare to stay any longer. ”

"What, eldest sister, are you a relative of the Su family?"

The merchant looked embarrassed.

"Look at what you said, I'll just casually say that you don't care."

"Don't be big brother, I see that you are a sincere person."

"That sister, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."

The merchant carried the burden out of the village in a panic, and no matter how much Ji shouted in the back, he couldn't shout.

This contact with people is also famous, otherwise you will find someone to do things for the first time, and it is not a matter of lice on the bald head, so you have to take your time.

But what the merchant didn't know was that he had just left the village and was targeted, and followed people all the way to the back door of the eldest princess's mansion.

Ji saw that the merchant was far away, so he went home in a panic, and hurried to the Westinghouse as soon as he got home.

The two old men had just slept after lunch, but they didn't expect Ji to break in in such a panic, and Mrs. Li's face immediately pulled down.

"I said the eldest daughter-in-law, when did you change your frizzy temperament, now it's not like in your hometown, in Jinjia Village, we Su is also a face-saving family, you have to pay attention to your own image, Brother Chen will be an official in two years, you can't lose face for him as his mother, otherwise you see which of those young ladies in Kyoto City will look up to you as a mother-in-law, and marry your daughter to our family."

From time to time, Mrs. Li would say that she was beaten, and the Ji family was used to it, it was completely the left ear in and the right ear out, and she had more important things now.

"Mother, I have two things, a good thing and a bad thing, which one do you listen to first?"
