Chapter 2
The Hu businessman hurriedly saluted her.
She laughed loudly, and while waving her hands, she covered the child beside her legs behind her.
"Kangkang, look at how serious you are. What an abruptness, I think this gentleman is really cute."
To be able to face her directly is to vomit, which is really rare among Middle-earth people.
Many of our middle-earth gentlemen are still pious.
Kang Kunlun nodded, and Hu Shang left quickly.
She turned her head quietly, and the child had disappeared.
Kang Kunlun didn't seem to notice either.
Only then did Kang Kunlun turn to her with a smile, and led her into the wine shop, up the stairs, to find a quiet private room in the attic to talk.
Suddenly downstairs was a little chaotic.She bent over the railing and looked out.
Just now, the Hu businessman was walking in a good manner, and suddenly fell on the spot.
After getting up with great difficulty, he had already fallen into a disfigured face, and his originally deep and three-dimensional facial features were all in a mess.
she:"!"
Kang Kunlun looked back and smiled faintly: "He came to Datang for the first time, and he was not acclimatized."
.
The private room upstairs is covered by a painted screen.
Only when the two of them sat opposite each other did Kang Kunlun slowly take off the hood on his head.
It turned out to be an extremely young man, the lines on his face were like sculptures.
Mischievousness even flashed in a pair of blue eyes.
"...The man was called Pu Changhai just now. He just came from Sogdia."
Xi Niangzi was full of anticipation, "What does he do for a living?"
People in Sogdia are good at doing business, and I heard that men are taught the ability to do business at the age of five, and they will go to anything that is beneficial in the world.
Therefore, they engage in many kinds of business, such as selling gold, sand, five-color salt, crystal cups, agate bottles and various jewelry, and some even make and sell chain mail, bows, shields, long swords, spears, etc. weapons.
It can be said that as long as it is a profitable business, they will do it.
Kang Kunlun was holding the teacup, and his gaze slid across her face playfully, "...he has skills and can build buildings."
"Yo~" Xi Niangzi looked at Kang Kunlun's blue eyes, then turned away, "This is rare."
Presumably what Pu Changhai is good at building is their buildings in the Western Regions.
Those who have such craftsmanship, if they are skilled in craftsmanship, will soon gain a reputation in this prosperous and wealthy city of Chang'an that pursues freshness.
The small abacus in her heart began to start rapidly.
However, she didn't want Kang Kunlun to see it.
She changed the topic by herself, "... Mr. Zuozheng, have you heard anything interesting these days?"
Kang Kunlun snorted softly while pinching the teacup, "Every time I see you, if I don't say three words, you must just turn to business."
She giggled, took out a purse from her bosom and stuffed it into Kang Kunlun's hand, "The last bonus."
.
Money comes first, but Kang Kunlun is only indifferent, as if he doesn't care about it at all.
His blue eyes only fell on her face.
"...You don't have to count everything. Just keep it with you for the time being, and just settle the accounts at the end of each year."
She smiled, "Our Kangkang is different. That's right, Kangkang is now an official of the imperial court, and he is also a gentleman of Zhengzheng. He has the salary of the imperial court and the offerings of Hu merchants. My idea is in the account. You won’t come into our Kangkang’s eyes.”
But she still pressed the purse firmly into his palm.
"But I don't like to owe debts. One sum is one sum. Only after the calculation is clear can we move on to the next one."
Kang Kunlun put down the teacup.The fingertips circled the rim of the cup to hide the depression in my heart.
"In your heart, I will always be just a business partner."
She raised the corners of her eyes, unconsciously revealing three points of charming, three points of playfulness, and four points of fierceness, "Aren't you still my Kangkang?"
At that time, she had just named him, and said with a smile, "Come on, let me be healthy."
Facing her smile, he was slightly dazzled, and murmured to her, "Kangkang?"
She blinked immediately, "Ah, yes, I'll call you Kangkang from now on, okay?"
He lowered his eyes, looking at the reflection on the teacup.High-quality white porcelain with rich glaze, like the best suet jade in the Western Regions.
He smiled lightly and put away the pouch.
"There is a rumor in the court, which sounds quite interesting."
.
Xi Niangzi shrugged her knees, sat up immediately, and leaned her upper body towards him.
"Come on~"
Kang Kunlun's eyes were half down, "Cui Qian, Dali Sizhi, is ill. I heard that this illness is quite strange."
She raised her thick eyebrows slowly, "Saburo Cui? If I remember correctly, although he is Saburo, he is the only heir."
Kang Kunlun nodded with a smile.
Xi Niangzi's eyes flickered, "What kind of strange method is this disease?"
Even by intuition, she also knew that this illness was probably not just a "disease".
Seeing her like this, Kang Kunlun couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips slightly, "...this disease is urgent and extremely dangerous. The Cui family has hired famous doctors, but no one can tell what the disease is, let alone rule."
"It's like this, the Cui family's Saburo is already dying of illness in only two months. I heard that the Cui family is already preparing for the funeral in private."
"Yo..." Xi Niangzi couldn't help but groaned.
Her eyes turned around the teacup, "So, the last way is to greet the relatives and celebrate the joy?"
Kang Kunlun stared at her quietly with blue eyes.
"It's a ready-made business. I just don't know if you dare to accept this marriage."
.
Xi Niangzi smiled, and the smile rippled slowly from the corners of her lips.
"Cui Jiaguo has this intention? Then there are marriages in this world that my wife would not dare to accept!"
Kang Kunlun stared into her eyes.
She didn't know it, but the makeup on her face was so heavy that it was shocking, but at this moment, her eyes were clear and flowing, and all the colorful colors on that face were washed away.
"...This Sanlang of the Cui family is from the Cui family of Qinghe. Do you dare to accept his marriage?"
.
"Hey!" Her red lips curled up, "It really is a tough one!"
The Cui family of Qinghe, a giant family in Shandong, has been a prince for many generations.The prestige was once ranked above the royal family.
In the 12th year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong ordered Gao Shilian, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, to revise the "Clan History" and complete it.The Cui family in Nei Lie is the first class, while the Li family in Longxi from the imperial family is only in the third class.
The Cui family of Qinghe even disdained marriage with the royal family.
In a fit of rage, Emperor Taizong ordered "marriage-forbidden households" to prohibit these aristocrats from marrying on their own.
But in fact, these aristocratic families didn't pay attention to Emperor Taizong's will at all, and married in private as usual.
After all, this is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. If the court finds out, the court may not seriously punish these forbidden marriages because of the fear of the power of the gentry, but maybe the court will spread its anger on the matchmaker Xi Niang.
People like matchmaker Xi Niang are like ants, and the court can handle it as they want.
To accept this business, you must bear the risk of losing your head.
Xi Niangzi drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, and turned the teacup upside down on the table.
"I'll take it!"
