Chapter 828 Watch the show

 It was probably impossible to shirk it, so I took it first, and when Wan Xinyue got married to Lu Jingyan, she treated it as a make-up gift and could justifiably return it.

Wan Pengyun was quite happy when he saw that Bai Shitang did not refuse, and only talked about business matters with Bai Shitang.

Bai Shitang and Su Mulan had lunch at Lu’s house at noon, and stayed for a while before leaving.

The two people took a carriage and arrived at Linglong Pavilion together.

“My boss.” Shopkeeper Guo saw Bai Shitang and his wife approaching and hurriedly responded.

“Where is Chen Shang?” Bai Shitang asked.

"Packing things in the backyard." Shopkeeper Guo replied, "Originally, he wanted to leave directly. He also said that it was too much for him to resign and not to go. How can I get the boss to see him off in person? I tried every means to stabilize him and only said that the boss After he came, he was asked to give him another sum of money, and he agreed. "

Bai Shitang looked around and lowered his voice, "Did you find the person you asked to find?"

“Don’t worry, shopkeeper, we’ve already made arrangements. If we count the time, it’s almost time to arrive.” Shopkeeper Guo said, “My boss will be there right now?”

"Send a message to Chen Shang first and ask him to go to the teahouse first. I will arrive soon."

Shopkeeper Guo got Bai Shitang's order and went to the backyard to look for Chen Shang.

Su Mulan raised his eyebrows when he saw Bai Shitang and Shopkeeper Guo acting like this, "It looks like there's something good to watch?"

"Then do you want to go to the theater together?" Bai Shitang laughed when he saw Su Mulan's thorough understanding, "That teahouse is very good at making tea. Although the refreshments are average, they are barely in the mouth. There are operas and singing there. It’s very good, you can go and listen to it.”

Su Mulan thought for a while and shook his head, "Since it's a good show you asked people to sing, just go and listen to it. The day is getting warmer and I need to prepare some clothes for the children. I'd better go to the shop to pick out some fabrics. "

The child was originally growing taller, but after spring, he grew taller and longer. The clothes he made in autumn were all a little shorter. Although he had prepared some spring clothes for winter, they were too late because of the variety. , I don’t have much to do, I have to make two more outfits and wear them interchangeably.

Furthermore, Bai Shitang has obviously made a plan. Since it is his business, let him perform it well and don't be distracted anymore because of her.

"That's fine." Seeing Su Mulan say this, Bai Shitang nodded, "Then I'll be back later."

"Yeah." Su Mulan said, "I will pick out the materials later and go to the back to look at the bamboo leaves. If you don't find me in the shop when you come back, just go and look for me in the back."

Bai Zhuye has been staying with Aunt Qin recently and has not been home for half a month. When Su Mulan came to the county town, she also prepared some things and will take them with her later.

"Okay." Bai Shitang smiled and found a waiter to take Su Mulan to select fabrics. He suppressed the smile on his face, put his hands behind his back, and went to the Qingfeng Tea House not far away.

It is the afternoon. Although it is still winter, the day has gradually warmed up after the beginning of spring. At this time, the sun is warm and the breeze is blowing. It is a prosperous time after the new year. Qingfeng Teahouse is quite lively here.

Actors in heavy makeup were singing on the stage. The lobby on the first floor was full of guests, cheering and applauding from time to time. The waiters shuttled between the tables carrying tea and refreshments, and were very discerning in refilling the half-empty tea cups of the guests. , giving a small plate of peanuts, melon seeds, etc. to regular customers who come often. Compared to the lively first floor, the private rooms on the second floor are much quieter.

Because it costs at least one hundred pence to go to the private rooms, not many people go there. Most of them are empty at the moment. Only one or two rooms have guests there, but they are not here to listen to the show and drink tea. Come to discuss things.

The waiter knew that these people didn't like what other people heard, so they only served tea and snacks and stopped approaching. Therefore, there was not even a waiter on the second floor at this time, making it even more quiet.

A tall and thin figure in blue looked around, came out of the backyard of the tea house, went straight up the stairs to the second floor, looked around again, then ducked into the house, stretched out his hand and hurriedly closed the door.

There was a similarly tall and thin man in the private room. He opened the window and looked at the slim actor on the stage with interest, tapping his hands gently on the table.

"Why are you keeping the window open? Are you afraid that others won't see you here?" Chen Shang's face darkened and he reached out to close the window.

The yin and yang sounds outside were suddenly shut out, and the sounds became muffled, as if they were in another world.

"What are you afraid of? After all this is done, even if he knows, he can only suffer the consequences of being dumb. What else can he do?" Guo Shuisheng stopped playing the rhythm, poured a cup of tea for Chen Shang, and laughed.

Chen Shang saw Guo Shuisheng's nonchalant look, snorted coldly, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Looking at Chen Shang's appearance, Guo Shuisheng's eyes flashed with impatience, but he still smiled and said, "Speaking of which, when are you going to set off?"

"I'm going to resign in the next few days. I should have left in the morning, but shopkeeper Guo refused to let me go. He also said that Bai Shitang would be coming in the afternoon. Seeing that I was a filial son, he wanted to give me an extra ten taels of silver and let me go back and take care of him. My wife at home.”

Chen Shang said in a deep voice, "These ten taels of silver should not be taken seriously at first, but since it comes to this, I have to stay until the afternoon to meet with Bai Shitang, lest he become suspicious."

Hearing this, Guo Shuisheng scratched his ears and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? When will you go to Hangzhou?"

"And what's the point of resigning? What's the point of resigning in such a good way? If you leave Linglong Pavilion, who will go to Hangzhou to buy goods? I've made a deal with you. I've already found the buyer. Than It was higher before, I could earn 25%..."

"When will I go to Hangzhou?" Chen Shang was also a little surprised, "I just did it once after I told you. Why did you find a buyer?"

 Chen Shang's face suddenly darkened as he spoke, "You shouldn't have even signed the receipt, right?"

"That's natural. The other party offered a high price, and the only requirement was to sign the receipt. But after signing the receipt, the other party gave a deposit. This is a lot of money..." Guo Shuisheng laughed, "If I can get this money, When the time comes to purchase real estate and land, you no longer have to look at other people’s faces to do things..."

"I've made a deal with you. You have to go to Hangzhou whether you want to go or not. You can't give up your job temporarily. If you can't get the raw silk by then, you will have to pay double the deposit."

"You will have to bear the compensation!" Chen Shang gritted his teeth, "You are so obsessed with money that you dare to take on any business? It doesn't matter whether you have such a big belly and can you hold so much food?"
