The Jiang family's business has taken root in Shangjing for many years, and it has long been mature and on the right track, so it only needs to operate it safely.

And Jiang Shu felt that to really learn to do business, he had to start from scratch.

"Oh? What do you want to do?" Father Jiang was slightly surprised.

Jiang Shu shook his head: "I don't know, I'll go out tomorrow and take a look at the shops and shops." ”

"Well, it's an important step to look at the market." Father Jiang pondered: "Opening a shop alone is my consideration for you, if you can manage it properly, you can become a teacher." ”

"I will definitely live up to my father's expectations and teachings." Jiang Shu is full of confidence and enthusiasm.

The next day, Jiang Shu took Tanyu, who was also dressed as a man, and swaggered out.

The master and servant wandered aimlessly in the city for a long time, and when they were tired, they went to Cuiyun Tower to rest for lunch.

In order to find out the news, they did not ask for a private room, but found an inconspicuous corner on the second floor and sat down.

"I don't know who Cuiyunlou will fall into, and this dish will still not taste like this in the future."

"You said that this business is doing well, why is it suddenly going to be auctioned?"

"You don't know? The shopkeeper Tong's son had a strange illness and had to go to Jiangnan to recuperate, and the shopkeeper Tong had no choice but to sell Cuiyunlou and move his family south. ”

"What's so weird? I have to go to Gangnam. ”

"I don't know."

Jiang Shu heard the conversation at the table behind him, turned around and asked them, "When will Cuiyun Mansion be auctioned?" Why haven't I heard?"

"Hey, be alone, you. The day after tomorrow. ”

"Restaurants and shops are usually sold by transfer, why is Cuiyun House auctioned?" Jiang Shu was puzzled.

"There are too many people who want Cuiyun Building, and the bids are also different, in order not to offend people, the shopkeeper Tong simply auctioned it in public, and the one with the highest price will get it."

"This shopkeeper Tong is a smart man." Jiang Shu admired.

"If you are not smart, you can open Cuiyun Tower in Beijing? Joke. ”

"Dude said very much, thank you." Jiang Shu turned around, already having an idea in his heart.

"Auntie...... Young Master, you don't want to buy Cuiyun Tower, do you?" Tan Yu lowered his voice.

Jiang Shu raised his eyebrows lightly: "Why not." ”

"This practice is too big, and the Jiang family has no experience in running a restaurant." Tan Yu was worried.

Cuiyun Tower is one of the most famous buildings in Beijing, and the people who come here to eat are either rich or expensive. If you don't get it right, it's easy to offend people if you lose money.

"What's the hurry, I'll take a look first, buy it if it's suitable, and watch the excitement if it's not suitable." Jiang Shu comforted Tanyu.

Hearing her say this, Tan Yu was a little relieved.

The master and servant left after eating, and bumped into an acquaintance when they went downstairs.

"You...... How do you dress like this?" Shen Changze was so shocked that he almost didn't recognize it.

What a bad luck!

Jiang Shu frowned, and glanced at Shen Changze coldly: "It has nothing to do with you." ”

After speaking, Jiang Shu went downstairs sideways, not wanting to say a word.

Shen Changze wanted to chase after him, but a gray-clothed guard suddenly appeared in the corner of the building: "Lord Shen, my master has been waiting for a long time. ”

Shen Changze glanced at the back of Jiang Shu leaving, raised his feet upstairs and followed the guards to the private room.

Since the last time he met Yu Cheng a few times with Lu Mingke's light, Shen Changze successfully won Yu Cheng's favor, and now he is Yu Cheng's important minister.

Today, Yu Cheng asked him to meet in Cuiyun Tower to discuss important matters with several other people.

After coming out of Cuiyun Tower, Jiang Shu and Tan Yu went straight back to Jiang's house, and saw selling fried chestnuts with sugar on the way, so they bought two catties.

The master and servant ate as they walked, completely oblivious to the fact that someone was following behind them.

After seeing the two of them enter Jiang's house freely, they followed the others near Jiang's house and did not leave until after dark.

"You said he lives in Jiang's house?" The man in silk looked at the information in his hand and guessed Jiang Shu's identity based on the words of his subordinates.

"Yes, the villain waited until it was dark and didn't see him leave, so he must be living in Jiang's house."

"What did he do when he went out today?"

"I wandered around the city for half a day in the morning, went to Cuiyun Tower for dinner at noon, and then went back to Jiang's house."

"The surname is Jiang, he lives in Jiang's house, and he appeared two or three months ago, is it ......" A bold guess was about to come out in the heart of the man in silk clothes.

At the same time, King Jing's Mansion.

"Master, the secret guard is here to report, someone is following and investigating Miss Jiang." Chasing the clouds bowed down to report.

Yu Zheng had just finished bathing, wiped off the water droplets, walked out of the screen in his bedclothes, and said in a slow voice: "Who is it?"

"The Fang family is a young owner."

"Salt merchant Fang's family?" Yu Zheng twisted his eyebrows.

"Yes. A few days ago, the Fang family and the Jiang family had some conflicts in business. "Chasing clouds explains why.

Yu Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Keep an eye on it." ”

The Fang family is the largest salt merchant in Shangjing, and the rich party is the first party. In the past few years, his appetite has become bigger and bigger, and he has begun to get involved in other professions, and Jiang Shu is afraid that he will be in the way and be targeted.

The next day, Jiang Shu didn't go out, and looked at the information of Cuiyun Building at home to prepare for the auction.

Zhong Yue brought a plate of osmanthus cake for Jiang Shu to taste.

Since returning to Jiang's house, Jiang Shu has almost eaten with his family, and Zhong Yue has lost his usefulness and researches new dishes every day.

Jiang Shu tasted a piece of sweet osmanthus cake, and his apricot eyes lit up: "Well, this cake is good." Anything else? Let Yu send some to my mother, and leave some for Jiang Ning. ”

"Yes, it's already been sent to Madame." Zhong Yue said.

Jiang Shu nodded in satisfaction, and picked up another piece after eating.

Seeing that she was satisfied, Zhong Yue was a little reluctant to say, "I want to leave the Jiang family." ”

"Why?" Jiang Shu raised his eyes in surprise: "Are you unhappy in the Jiang family?"

Zhong Yue shook his head: "The Jiang family is very good, but my dream is to be a chef and become famous." The Jiang family doesn't need me, I want to go outside and break in. ”

She has no father, no mother, no relatives and no reason, and she came to Beijing alone not just to find an errand, but to make a name for herself and realize her ambitions.

Fortunately, she met Jiang Shu and spent a stable and beautiful life. But there is no such thing as a feast, and it is time for her to leave.

"You wait, maybe you don't have to leave." Jiang Shu strengthened his determination to buy Cuiyun Building.

Zhong Yue was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"I'll tell you when I come back tomorrow."

Jiang Shu didn't deliberately sell Guanzi, but she was afraid that she would say it in advance, and if she couldn't buy Cuiyun Building tomorrow, she would disappoint Zhong Yue.

Although Zhong Yue planned to leave, he was not in a hurry for the next day or two, so he waited patiently.

The next day, Jiang Shu took the silver ticket and Tanyu and went to Cuiyun Tower.

Cuiyun Building is overcrowded, and many people gather in the lobby on the first floor to watch the excitement, and the auction seat on the second floor needs to pay ten taels of silver to be seated.

Jiang Shu paid the money and led Tanyu to the second floor.

Tan Yu hugged the wooden box in his arms tightly, for fear of being robbed.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the first floor, the second floor is quiet and spacious.

Jiang Shu sat down and let out a long sigh of relief and began to look around, looking at her competitors.

After the auction began, all parties scrambled to bid first, and Jiang Shu was still looking around.

Suddenly, Jiang Shu saw a familiar face.

Yu Yuan.

She observed carefully and saw that Yu Yuan had been drinking and watching the excitement, but he did not make a bid, which was very strange.

Jiang Shu had a guess and decided to go over and ask what was going on.

"Yu Shizi." Jiang Shu bowed like a man.

Yu Yuan glanced at it casually, and then the wine in his mouth squirted out.

"You, you, you ......" Yu Yuan stammered with a ghostly expression.
