Chapter 278 Miaoxuan Firm
Yin Miao's firm did not have a name or a plaque. When the two arrived, the Wu family, a former scholarly family in the city, specially sent a large plaque.
"Thanks to the two of you, the old and young of our Wu family did not starve to death. This is the name that my father instructed and our whole family came up with. If the two of you feel that it is difficult to get into the elegant hall, you just need to accept it."
In the backyard, an elegant middle-aged man saw that the two of them had come unexpectedly, so he hurriedly greeted them with a bow.
"Why is this so embarrassing? I also asked Uncle Wu to thank Grandpa Wu for me."
Yin Miao said that Mr. Wu used to be the prime minister of the late emperor, and he has been living in Shangyun City since his retirement.
Two days ago, the family pulled nearly three carriages of jade ornaments to the business. Yin Miao and Xiao Xuan worked together for an hour to complete the liquidation. During this period, they also worked with this middle-aged man named Wu Yasheng. became acquainted.
"If I want to say thank you, I want to thank you two."
Wu Yasheng waved his hand and brought the two to the huge plaque.
When the big red cloth was unveiled, the eyes of everyone in the courtyard were attracted by the magnificent plaque.
It was a wooden plaque with a hot gold base. The high and raised parts around the plaque were engraved with complex patterns. If you look closely, it is clearly carved with lions of various shapes.
In the middle of the plaque are four bright black broad and flat characters - Miaoxuan Trading Company.
"Good word, good word! The four-character horizontal drawing is long and the vertical drawing is short. The so-called "silkworm's head and swallow-tail" and "twists and turns" are really wonderful."
Huang Tiancheng also arrived at the firm early in the morning, and the writing on the plaque made him linger.
"My father has been addicted to practicing calligraphy since he returned to his hometown. He also made this calligraphy by himself, and then let skilled craftsmen create wooden calligraphy."
Wu Yasheng finished speaking, and explained again: "My father insisted on using the names of the two to make a plaque, hoping that it would not offend the two."
"It's not offensive, I think it's fine.""
Yin Miao praised that she was also planning to name the firm, but she didn't expect someone to help name it so soon, and even the plaque was ready and sent.
"good."
Seeing that the names of the two are rarely in the same frame, Xiao Xuan said that he immediately planned to have this plaque hung at the main entrance of the business, which showed that he was also very satisfied.
Seeing that both of them were satisfied, Wu Yasheng finally felt relieved.
They are also considered rich families in Shangyun City. All the jade in the family has been exchanged for food. In addition to a lot of food, they also store a large amount of vegetables in the business. When you need it, you only need to come and get it. .
As far as they are concerned, they also want this firm to be able to open for a long time.
"Since Uncle Wu is here, let's go get some food and go back. Today, there are some meat and eggs in the store, which just happened to be used to make up for Mr. Wu and his family."
Yin Miao said.
"Really meat and eggs?"
Wu Yasheng said in surprise, that must be very precious, right?
"Uncle Wu, don't be polite. In order to thank Mr. Wu, we will not keep the accounts today."
Yin Miao said to Huang Tiancheng.
"That's impossible, this plaque is the heart of our family."
Wu Yasheng hurriedly refused, but he was unable to withstand the warm hospitality of Yin Miao and the two of them. Before leaving, he was stuffed with a dozen live chickens and two large bamboo baskets of eggs.
Looking at Wu Yasheng who left in awe, Yin Miao also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xiao Xuan, "Don't worry about the eggs breaking for the time being."
"Um."
Xiao Xuan glanced at Huang Tiancheng, who obviously wanted to talk to Yin Miao, and felt a little blocked for some reason.
A Miao has secrets with other men, but he has become an outsider?
"You can wait for me here for a while, or go to the store in front, and I'll come over later."
Yin Miao pretended not to see Xiao Xuan's rather sad eyes, Xiao Xuan only knew what she was investigating with Huang Tiancheng, but did not know the specific content.
“…”
Watching Yin Miao leave with Huang Tiancheng, Xiao Xuan suddenly felt that his previous vacations were all fake.
He had only been busy for a few days when Yin Miao started to dismiss him like this.
Next door, Yin Miao took a silver note from Huang Tiancheng. It was a huge silver note worth 500 taels of gold. The paper looked yellow and it was a little old.
"This is the silver note that my father got back, and my father and mother never touched it."
Huang Tiancheng showed a sad expression, just thinking about it, they make a living by selling characters, and the price of helping others to write family letters on weekdays is just over a hundred yuan, where would someone spend a lot of money and give out 500 taels of silver?
"Can you find other clues?"
Yin Miao asked.
This can only mean that it was an unusual business.
Huang Tiancheng shook his head: "I have searched my house, but I have never seen anything suspicious."
"Yeah, how can it be so easy to find, maybe it has already been destroyed."
Yin Miao comforted Huang Tiancheng for a while before walking towards her room in the firm.
There is a place for her to rest, and it is also a place where she can easily enter and exit the space. On weekdays, she will put the auspiciousness in it, but today when she went in, she found that one person and one bird were in the house.
"A Miao's affairs are still going well?"
Xiao Xuan seemed to be in a daze. Seeing Yin Miao coming in, he quickly pretended to tease Yin Miao.
“…”
Seeing that Xiangrui, who was obviously asleep, was forcibly woken up by Xiao Xuan, Yin Miao was dumbfounded.
Sure enough, he was still concerned about what she was doing.
"It didn't go well, the clue was broken."
Yin Miao said bluntly.
"Maybe I can help A Miao come up with ideas."
Xiao Xuan has an expression like I'm listening carefully.
Knowing that this matter will be known to Xiao Xuan sooner or later, but the system warned her not to reveal the world of a book to the people who originally existed in the book, so she took pains to think of a reason.
"You told you before that Yin Miao in this world has left, but she left a wish before she left."
Yin Miao sighed, Yuanshen's wish was for the family to be safe, but she couldn't say that.
"What wish?"
Xiao Xuan asked.
"She accidentally learned that Empress Qi of the current dynasty was the daughter of a criminal minister who kept her name incognito and was very likely to avenge the royal family. Later, the Yin family was exiled, and the whereabouts of her father and third uncle were unknown, so she suspected that these matters were related to Empress Qi. , so...she wants me to find out."
Yin Miao turned her back to Xiao Xuan and almost finished her speech with her eyes closed, but it was obvious that Xiao Xuan never doubted her words.
"Queen Qi? Qi Lingxi?"
Xiao Xuan thought of a woman who was taciturn and had no background, but was envied by the entire capital. He did not remember any official surnamed Qi being convicted.
Is it…
"That's right, she is the daughter of the previous city owner of Shangyun City, her original surname is Shen."
Yin Miao said. The daughter of a criminal who was beheaded by the whole family, incognito, and became a queen... This is very telling.
