"I don't know where you heard the news, but I've sent someone to make it clear. There is such a person as Ren Weizhi. His family has a salt farm in Ziliujing for some years, but now there is almost no salt, and even the company commander can't find a few." Seeing that Shuxiang inn is already in sight, you Yue and you Fangyin tell each other, "my identity is different from you. I don't know what kind of dirty place this Shuxiang inn is. I'll stop the carriage outside and wait for you in the opposite teahouse. You will go into the Inn and ask for the details. Come back to me later. If someone asks about your identity, you will say that you are only here to get information, and there are big customers behind you. Don't pretend to be a wolf with a big tail in front of outsiders
You Fangyin was used as a servant girl.
And it's easier to use than a maid.
Since this little cheap hoof can have money of unknown origin, it's probably earned by herself. No matter whether it's true or false, send her to hide people's eyes and ears to avoid her coming out in person. Second, try the depth of the hoof to see if she's hiding anything. Third, if there's any accident, it's convenient for her to plant it directly on you Fangyin's head.
If the servant girl is her own, it doesn't work well.
You Yue is very satisfied with her plan.
You Fangyin didn't speak after listening to these, and she was submissive.
The carriage stopped as soon as it arrived opposite Shuxiang inn.
You Fangyin gets out of the car.
You Yue only said: "remember not to tell people that you are from Qingyuan uncle's house. Ask carefully, especially the situation of the salt field and the money he needs."
You Fang Yin nodded and went to Shu Xiang inn.
The name of Shuxiang Inn tells us that it was set up here by businessmen from Sichuan.
The west of the capital has never been a place for princes and nobles to build their houses. Instead, there are a lot of tile houses and fences. Most of the people walking on the streets are from south to north, and even some beggars are sitting on the street begging.
Fortunately, you Fangyin has seen the "grand scene".
After all, the last time I came into contact with the raw silk business, I went in and out of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Guildhall, and I went through dozens of chambers of Commerce. Although there are some worries now, she is not at a loss at a small Shuxiang inn.
It was also at this moment that she clearly realized that she was different from before.
Standing at the door of the inn, she squeezed her fingers, took a deep breath, and went in.
The upper and lower floors of the inn cover a large area, but the interior decoration is very common. It looks old and dilapidated. There are knife marks on a few tables in the lobby. I don't know what happened before.
It's past noon, and there aren't many guests.
Only a few peddlers and passers-by stop here, order a pot of wine and a few dishes to eat in the corner.
The shopkeeper also stood listlessly behind the counter.
When you Fangyin went in, he took a look and yawned as if he hadn't seen it. It was not until the eyelid touched the lower eyelid that he suddenly got excited and realized that there was a guest.
Just open your eyes, you Fang Yin up and down a look, and some wonder.
Nowadays, it is rare for a girl to come out alone.
He laughed and asked curiously, "do you want to stay in a shop or a top girl?"
You Fang Yin looked at the stairs nearby and said, "look for someone."
The smile on the shopkeeper's face decreased, and his expression became strange. He said, "no, I'm looking for someone, too? Miss, don't tell me that you're also looking for Ren upstairs? "
You Fangyin was surprised: "is Mr. Ren here?"
The shopkeeper's book had opened the account book, took out the abacus, and was about to receive the guests. Now he turned his eyes and closed the account book directly. Without raising his head, he pointed to the left staircase and said, "turn left upstairs, the innermost one. But it was only half an hour ago that someone came to see him, and he hasn't left yet. "
If I had known that so many people were coming, I should have collected the money according to my head.
If you come to find him, you can charge a few Wen, or you can subsidize the house money that the poor guy owes!
But you Fangyin didn't know what situation Ren Weizhi was in. When she heard the shopkeeper's directions, she was very grateful. She bowed to him and said, "thank you, shopkeeper. I'll wait for a while."
I don't know if it's business. It's not good to disturb others.
She didn't have any money and couldn't order anything, so she stood by and waited.
After a while, it happened that no one came down from the upstairs.
Step on the long wooden stairs, creak creak.
You Fangyin looks up and sees a young man in a long shirt coming down from the upstairs. He has an ordinary face and a thin figure, but he has a happy posture. He carries his hands on his back and plays with a fan Pendant of Hetian Huangyu between his fingers.
He came down and stopped in front of the counter. He took a silver note out of his sleeve and put it in front of the shopkeeper. He said, "the extra money for Mr. Lou's room is for the future. If the time is long, it will be recorded in the account. On the 15th day of the lunar new year, I will go to the youhuang hall in the east of the city. "The shopkeeper was startled: "Oh, rich!"
He picked up the money ticket and looked at the seven words "Tonghe ticket number one hundred Liang" on the top. He immediately said with a smile: "it seems that we should congratulate this noble man and Mr. Ren. This is a good business negotiation!"
This person is not someone else. It's Lu Xian, the owner of youhuang hall, who is not doing his job. He has seen a lot of the shopkeeper's philistine face. Now he waved his hand and said, "it's just easy to help. I haven't talked about any business yet."
The shopkeeper immediately said, "yes, yes."
Lu Xian scolded you for knowing a fart in his heart. He sniffed and didn't care much. He turned around and left.
At this time, the shopkeeper was in a better mood, so he chanted to you Fang standing on the other side: "girl, now Ren's guests are gone, you can go up and have a look."
You Fangyin knew that young scholars were Ren Weizhi's guests.
She couldn't help looking at it more.
Lu Xian saw a girl in this kind of place, although he also felt a little strange, but at first he didn't think much about it, so he walked over.
When the shopkeeper's voice was heard, he stopped abruptly.
This girl is actually looking for Ren Weizhi?
Lu Xian didn't hold back. He turned around and looked back. This happened to be opposite you Fangyin.
It's really "jingchai cloth skirt". It's a bit shabby. Looking at the facial features, they are pretty, but they are weak and thin. Their eyes are very big and bright. When they look at them, they are astonishing.
He was stunned.
The girl didn't seem to think that he would turn back. She was startled. Like a frightened rabbit, she withdrew her eyes and bowed to him with a little apology. Then she went upstairs.
Lu Xian's brows wrinkled: is it Ren Weizhi's relatives? But I haven't heard that he has any sisters, let alone a family.
There was something suspicious in him.
As soon as he stepped out of the shabby Inn, he saw the carriage parked across the street. When he looked at the emblem on the top of the carriage, his eyelids leaped and his mind flashed: there was a carriage in Youfu, and there should be the owner of Youfu in the teahouse opposite. The girl he met just now was thin and haggard, though she was wearing the clothes of a servant girl and even a servant girl It's not as good as that. However, it doesn't look like a maid. Is it
"The commoner girl in Qingyuan mansion?" Lu Xian looked back at Shu Xiang Inn once more, and thought deeply at the bottom of his eyes. At last, he said with a smile, "interesting! That's interesting... "
With a caress of his hand, he had made up his mind.
Originally, I was going to go back to youhuang hall directly. But I changed my mind. I got on the soft sedan waiting by the road and said, "go to Xiefu."
*
you Fangyin went upstairs.
Turn left to the innermost.
She stopped outside the door, reached out her hand, and knocked on the door: "is Mr. Ren in?"
Ren Weizhi is twenty-four years old. He has failed to pass the exam many times. Before he was twenty years old, he took over the salt factory after his father died. However, after three generations of salt production, he had nearly dried up after hundreds of years of mining. He was also bookish and not good at management. After only two years, his family's situation was not as good as before, and even worse.
Up to now, the original long-term workers have gone.
He couldn't borrow money everywhere. He had to sell a lot of his ancestral property to get enough money to go to Beijing. He had been in Beijing for nearly a month. Many people came to the inn to inquire about his invention of zhuotungjing. But most of them didn't really want to lend him money or buy shares. They just wanted to cheat him to have a look at the drawings in his hand.
One to two to cheat, nature slowly scattered.
There are fewer and fewer people looking for him in this inn. Many people even say that he is a liar. He has lost all his ancestral property and failed to manage the salt farm well, so he came to Beijing to cheat under the banner of invention.
In the words of those people -
for hundreds of years, so many people haven't come up with a way to dig deep wells. You are a nerd who is buried in reading. You haven't even been to the salt field several times, and you haven't personally drawn brine. You actually say that you have a way. I want to know that it's on paper. It's nice!
Just after seeing LV Xian off, Ren Weizhi was a little frustrated.
Having contacted so many people and had been in the imperial examination field, he could see that LV Zhaoyin was by no means a small man. However, the other party was not as eager as others. Although he also inquired about the situation of Ziliujing salt farm and zhuotungjing, he was even willing to give him money as a temporary relief, but he never mentioned the issue of money as a shareholder. He only said that he would come back to him in a few days.
Ren Weizhi doesn't know how long he can last.
He was wearing a dark blue brocade robe. His sleeves were wrinkled. His white face had a pair of good-looking Danfeng eyes. His lips were neither thin nor thick. He was a face that had not suffered much since he was a child. There was something between his eyes that he could not put down.
Now I'm worried and I'm pacing the house.When he heard the sound of knocking on the door accompanied by the sound of inquiry, he was stunned at first. Then he hurried forward to answer the door and said, "yes."
"Squeak" a glottal open.
Ren Weizhi saw the man standing outside. He turned out to be a pure girl.
He looked behind her, but he didn't see anyone else. He couldn't help but feel puzzled: "yes, girl is looking for me?"
You Fangyin didn't expect that he would open the door so fast, and his knocking hand was still in the air. At this time, he put it down awkwardly and said, "if you are Mr. Ren, I am looking for you."
Ren Weizhi didn't know her, but said, "what's the matter, girl?"
You Fangyin remembers what Xu Wenyi taught him when he was doing a raw silk business. When he should be brief and comprehensive, he would never sell the key words, so he said very briefly: "Ziliujing, Yanchang, zhuotungjing, pay money to become a shareholder."
Ren Weizhi suddenly slightly opened his mouth, only feel incredible: this girl doesn't look like rich!
But who doesn't have a character in Beijing?
I have nothing. Can't someone cheat him with a beauty trick?
When he thought of this, he suddenly laughed at himself, stepped back, let you Fangyin in, and said, "it's also about salt. Please come in. I haven't asked the girl what to call me? "
Although you Fangyin has discussed business with Xu Wenyi before, Xu Wenyi is not young and even has children. She only regards Xu Wenyi as an elder.
She is the same age as Weizhi.
After entering his shabby guest room, she was bound to be a little stiff and said, "my name is you."
Ren Weizhi nodded: "I'll call you miss you. Please sit down."
In the guest room, there was only a bare square table with a plate of cold corn pancakes, several cups of tea and a pot of tea on it.
There are three chairs on the side.
He asked you Fangyin to sit opposite him. Then he took the teapot and poured a cup of tea for her. He was ashamed to smile: "the other day, when you served such crude tea, I still couldn't wipe my face. But at the end of my life, I just couldn't do it. If you are forced by circumstances, please don't give up
You Fangyin was flattered and took the tea cup with both hands. He only remembered that he couldn't even drink a mouthful of crude tea in Bofu. For a moment, he felt a little desolate and said, "I don't want to give up."
Ren Weizhi looks at her.
She took a sip of the tea cup in her hand. As soon as she looked down, she saw the plate of cold corn pancakes. She looked up at Ren Weizhi and said slowly, "can I eat this?"
Ren Weizhi was stunned. When he looked at the plate of pancakes, his face almost burned, and his speech became stumbling: "this, this, at noon, you can eat, but it's cold..."
You Fang said, "it's OK."
She's just a little hungry.
With the host's consent, you Fangyin put down the tea cup for a while, picked up a corn pancake from the plate and nibbled it.
Cold food slides into the abdomen and is warmed by the heat of the body.
She didn't feel aggrieved, but after taking a few mouthfuls, her tears rolled down and nearly choked.
Ren Weizhi only thought that she had an unusual customer. Unexpectedly, she cried before she finished eating half a pancake? For a moment, I was in a hurry. I wanted to find Fang Jin PA to pass it, but I didn't find it for a long time.
Can only dry tunnel: "you, you don't cry, others thought I how you!"
You Fangyin buries her head and stares at the gap on the corn pancake, but murmurs something irrelevant: "it's so hard to live. What's the point of face..."
Ren Weizhi was suddenly stunned.
*
Jiang Xuening has been waiting in the car for a long time.
On the left, you Yue can't come out of the teahouse; on the right, you Fangyin can't come out of the inn.
She felt bored.
What about boredom?
You Yue always bullies you Fangyin in her own house. If she doesn't go down to look for you Yue's bad luck, it's hard to say.
Thinking like this, Jiang Xuening said decisively: "get off the bus."
Tang'er and lian'er helped her down, and she went directly to the teahouse nearby.
The teahouse is in the shape of Hui. There is a stage at the bottom for people to sing opera or tell stories. But at this time, there are neither opera singers nor storytellers. It looks rather cold.
You Yue is on the second floor.
Jiang Xuening went in and looked up the stairs. He could see you Yue's position. He pointed at the position to the waiter who was coming up. He took out all the arrogance he had been holding for several days and said, "I want the position upstairs."
As soon as the waiter looked at her posture and her dress, he knew that she was a rich master. Now she was smiling and wanted to welcome people inside. Who would have thought that this young lady was amazing.
The smile froze.
The eyelid jumps to look toward upstairs, he swallowed throat mouth water way: "but, that position already had someone..."Jiang Xuening's eyelids lifted and glanced at him: "tell her to roll."
Waiter: --
The girl has a grudge. I can see that she's looking for something!
The waiter was sweating on his forehead. I didn't know what to do.
The teahouse is not big either.
From upstairs to downstairs is not two Zhang, the lower head to speak, the upper heard clearly.
You Yue is muttering about how you Fangyin can't come out. As a result, she hears someone talking below and saying "tell her to go away". You know, there are not many guests upstairs at the moment, and the voice is very familiar.
She frowned and looked downstairs.
This glance almost didn't make her hate so much that she suddenly got up from her seat and said, "well, I'm not going to embarrass you, but Jiang Xuening is going to embarrass me! How dare you tell me to get out of here? "
Jiang Xuening raised her head, as if she had just seen her at this time, and covered her lips in surprise: "I thought it was miss you er who had no eyes in the upstairs who occupied my favorite position."
You Yue was impatient: "you --"
she was about to export ugly words, but she turned her eyes and was stunned. She just moved her steps and walked slowly down the stairs from the upstairs. She choked her voice and said, "Oh, I wanted to worry about you, but I think you are a chicken rather than a phoenix now. I think you are pitiful."
Last life such ridicule Jiang Xuening heard I don't know how much, really can't arouse her anger, just smile at you Yue approaching.
Her complexion did not change, but youyue's changed.
Seeing that this did not work, new and old grudges surged in my heart, and I became more and more vicious: "look at you. You are a small family. You are a savage who grew up in Chuang Tzu. You don't understand any rules, and you want to be a Phoenix. But I don't dare to take advantage of my daughter's reputation. It's just that I don't dare to tell you that it's the same thing for me to be a bad girl. I don't know who used to bully others by virtue of the power of the Yongyi Marquis's house, but now that family is going to be beheaded. First of all, Yan linshizi, I don't know what will happen to the cover in the future! "
The color at the bottom of Jiang Xuening's eyes is a little darker.
She slowly raised the corner of her lips and looked around the teahouse.
Finally, he murmured to himself: "it's strange that there isn't even a fish tank in this teahouse..."
Fish tank!
When you Yue heard these two words, her back hair almost immediately stood up, and she instantly remembered the scene of this madman pressing his head in the fish tank with a fierce face!
A sense of crisis immediately climbed up!
She saw that Jiang Xuening's eyes turned back, gently fell on her body, and even put her hand on her shoulder. Suddenly she screamed and brushed her hand!
When Jiang Xuening was a child, he was a little devil that people were afraid of when he was in the mountains of Zhuangzi. Not to mention being born again, he accumulated a whole body of anger that could not be released. He was not afraid of a little youyue.
She thought about making you Yue more "impressed" with herself.
But before I could do it, I heard tang'er say to her: "girl Fangyin is coming!"
Jiang Xuening's eyelids jump, and immediately think of the lie he told in front of you Fangyin. He is the one who was bullied by you Yue and didn't dare to say more!
You can't show it!
She is very quick to respond. She doesn't wait for you Yue to react. As soon as she bends her legs, she screams and falls to the ground. She presses her hand on her heart and sobs: "miss you, how can you..."
“……”
You Yue feels that the scene is a little familiar, and the back of her head begins to feel numb like a reflex.
She first looked around and confirmed that there was neither Princess Chang nor Yan Lin. then she was relieved. She turned to see that Jiang Xuening was still playing. She could not breathe and scolded angrily: "you crazy man! Who do you pretend to show all day? Did I push you? Did I push you? How can you really push me? Do you think anyone can see it now? "
As soon as you Yue's voice fell, she finally saw you Fangyin standing outside the teahouse.
This has always been docile and easy to bully in her eyes, a pair of eyes staring at her, eyes are red, word by word to ask: "you pushed two girls?"
You Yue remembers that Jiang Xuening is you Fangyin's life-saving benefactor.
But she didn't feel that she needed to be afraid of you Fangyin. She was just a concubine's daughter.
Now I sneer, and I want to sneer.
You Fang came down to the teahouse without a word!
"Ah, what are you doing?"
"You are crazy!"
"Help, help, help!"
You Fang Yin just came from the opposite inn. When she saw Jiang Xuening, she was very surprised. But then she saw her second sister push her down. At that time, she felt cold in her heart.But in a flash, the cold turned into endless anger!
She didn't know whether she was crazy or not, but at this moment, she didn't want to give in, and she didn't want to give in. She just wanted to be stronger and stronger, and she could protect the people she wanted to protect.
With the bench in her hand, she couldn't see the other people in the teahouse. You Yue was the only one in her eyes, so she approached her step by step.
You Yue, where have you seen such a wretched one?
Even if she uttered evil words, she was just a lady in a boudoir. What's more, she had never seen you Fangyin so fierce that she was possessed by an evil spirit. She was so scared that she even retreated, and tears came out: "you, get away, help
She screamed at the top of her voice.
But even the servant girls were frightened and screamed back.
You Yue falls to the ground in a panic, but when she looks around for help, she just catches a glimpse of Jiang Xuening who just fell to the ground -
Where does this bitch have the previous weak and pitiful appearance?
Completely a languid posture, good time to gently tidy up their own hair strands, and even quite with a bit of pity to look at her with a sigh.
He also gently waved his hand to the servant girl beside him and said, "I'm trying to persuade you not to give up your life."
You Yue is mad!
The same move to her a person to use twice, and she had once, the second time or even hit!
Ah ah!
This hateful demon! Gorgeous! Cheap! Goods!!!
