Chapter 124 124: He Came to Sit for Her (Part [-])

"Why, are you scared?" Seeing her in a daze, Xie Jin asked deliberately.

Chang Xi came to her senses and replied with a bright smile, "Master Xie Jiu is not afraid, what am I afraid of?"

Xie Jin's complexion turned dark, there must be no good intentions in this woman's words.

Xiao Mian, see if I can't cure you?

If Chang Xi thought about it, with Xie Jin's appearance and figure, if something romantic happened, she would not be at a loss. A handsome man would be delivered to her door again. The premise is that he looks in line with her aesthetics, so it's not for nothing.

Don't think that only men are beautiful.

Her reverse operation made Xie Jin's face even more ugly, and she succeeded in changing his face, and she went down the mountain in a good mood.

Xie Jin looked at her figure galloping on the mountain road. This woman has a good body and is not too delicate, which is really rare.

When Chang Xi returned to the valley, two big shopkeepers had already arrived in a hurry, one was the shopkeeper Guo of Taiming Tea House, and the other was the shopkeeper Ma of Qingxiang Tea House.

"Ms. Chang, are you sure you're here?" Shopkeeper Guo said happily.

Chang Xi nodded with a smile, and then said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Shopkeeper Guo. This place was recommended by you. The location is really superior."

Shopkeeper Guo laughed out loud when he heard the words, and said that Mrs. Chang is indeed a person who knows the goods.

Shopkeeper Ma laughed at the side, and it could be seen that the relationship between Old Guotou and Chang's was very good. His eyes flashed. These are the two major shareholders of Tea Brick Workshop. Maybe he would gain more by getting along with them Li, I should feel sorry for shopkeeper Zhu who lured him into a small group, but he is only human, and it is his nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

While thinking about it, when he saw Xie Jin walking slowly, his eyes lit up immediately, and he hurried forward to salute and say hello. He still looked down on Chang's a little bit in his heart before, but now seeing Xie Jin come forward to support her, he immediately put Chang's status has been raised several notches.

Xie Jin still maintains that high-cold attitude, for others' flattery, he hears it with his left ear and the right ear, and doesn't take it to heart.

Shopkeeper Guo was discussing the construction of the workshop with Chang Xi, and when he saw Xie Jin, he didn't dare to neglect, and hurried over to pay respects, but his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, not as nasty as Shopkeeper Ma's flattery.

Not long after, the other two shopkeepers also arrived. They also met Xie Jin, and their attitudes became extremely respectful.

Chang Xi's teeth itch when she saw it. As expected, high status is a good thing. She has shown so many talents, but she has not been able to gain the real approval from the bottom of these people's hearts. But once Xie Jin appeared on the stage, the situation was different. He turned into a dog leg directly.

Of course, this also made her overestimate Xie Jia's energy by another level.

This time, Chang Xi went very smoothly because of Jie Jin's pressure. The construction of the tea brick workshop was completely according to her idea. Now that there is sufficient funds in the early stage, even the workers' residences will be built together. All facilities should be in place at one time.

In particular, the idea of ​​the small pier she mentioned immediately made the four shopkeepers look at each other. The workshop is set up here, and this area is expected to become prosperous in the future. They even want to build a row of houses here. You can earn a lot from renting.

Chang Xi is well aware of their Xiaojiujiu, but they ignore that this geographical location only serves the Tea Brick Workshop, and it will not be open to the public in the short term, so they try to do whatever tricks they want, as long as they can afford it , it may still be profitable in the future.

After everything was discussed here, the scribes sent by the government to measure the land data also arrived. After all, this land belongs to the Yiyang City government, so whether it is renting or selling, you have to deal with the government.

Also because of the presence of the great god Xie Jin, the official clerks are also quite talkative, not to mention making things difficult, and even release a lot of water, which saves Chang Xi a lot of money for buying land.

At this point, Chang Xi finally recalled why Xie Jin had such an abnormal behavior today. The real purpose of dealing with Qin Shi was probably fake. The real purpose was to give her a seat, and it was also for the [-]% she gave up last night. The return of profit allowed her to act in his name.

To a certain extent, Xie Jin is a person who is very clear about public and private affairs, and even has a steelyard in his heart. Such a person cannot be a profiteer, but if he is an official, it will definitely benefit the people.

That problem came again. As far as she knew, Xie Jin had the fame of Juren, but he never went to Beijing to rush for the exam. For the Xie family who had made a lot of achievements in the court, it was really a strange thing.

But the matter of Xie's family has nothing to do with her, so she won't bother with it. She will leave Xie's house when she gets the first pot of gold, at most it will be in the spring of next year.

All of this was done before it got dark.

Chang Xi personally sent away the four shopkeepers, as well as the official scribe, of course, how polite these people were to her.

When turning around again, Xie Jin had already ridden on the horse that Zhou Nan had brought over. He glanced at her and said, "Get on the horse, or the road will be difficult later on."

"Madam, did you send someone to report it?" Chang Xi still remembered to tell Qin Shi, otherwise she might be criticized by Qin Shi after the incident.

Xie Jin gave her a sideways glance. Does she still need to talk about this?

Chang Xi saw his expression, what else did he not understand?
With a cold snort, she didn't say anything more, she directly rode on the little mare, and of course Huniu still sat behind her and ran for her.

In the night wind, he set off for another courtyard.

In the summer night, the stars are still quite bright, and Chang Xi enjoys the feeling of riding a horse, but unfortunately, the vision is not as good as in the daytime, and there is not much scenery in the countryside.

Of course, she took a few more glances at the lights from the small villages on the way, and she knew how many people there were in these small villages, and the next job recruitment was also on the agenda.

It didn't take long to arrive at the other courtyard. At this time, the other courtyard was brightly lit. Seeing the master's arrival, the steward immediately greeted him. He first held the rein for Xie Jin, waited for Xie Jin to dismount, and then said, "Master Yuan, it has been a long time. Wait a long time."

Chang Xi, who was being helped off the horse by Huniu, couldn't help being stunned again when she heard the steward's words, and immediately looked at Xie Jin with her beautiful eyes. She didn't expect him to make such a thoughtful arrangement.

Xie Jin ignored her gaze, but threw the whip to the steward beside him, and strode inside

Chang Xi followed immediately, she didn't want to miss the opportunity to meet Yuan Hao, not to mention that with Xie Jin in the lineup, she was more confident.

Before entering the main hall, Yuan Hao said loudly, "Ziyang, why are you so late? Let me wait..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Chang Xi who was following him, and was stunned on the spot , Why is Chang's here?
Last time Xie Jin concealed her identity a little bit, but this time he generously brought her out?This is interesting.

So, ignoring Xie Jin's cold face, he hurried forward to say hello to Chang Xi, "Miss Chang, we meet again."

Chang Xi greeted him, and replied with a smile, "Yes, Mr. Yuan, we meet again."

The two said they were strangers, but they were not very strangers, but they said they were acquainted, but in fact they were not. But they couldn't help it. These two are very good people, and they want to get closer. They can talk lively after going back and forth.

Xie Jin took a look at these two people, they were really hypocritical.

"Stop being polite over there, come and sit quickly."

Hearing Xie Jin's impatient voice, Chang Xi and Yuan Hao looked at each other, neither of them wanted to really annoy Xie Jin, so they accepted it as soon as they saw each other, and then went to sit on the first seat on the left and on the right.

Xie Jin handed over the things Chang Xi gave him to see last night directly to Yuan Hao, "Look at this first."

Yuan Hao took the materials handed over by Zhou Nan. He already knew the initial achievements of the tea brick business, so it was not surprising. What was strange was the improvement sketch of the textile machine.

Originally sitting very lazy, he immediately sat upright after seeing this, and suddenly raised his head to look at Xie Jin, "Where did you come from?"

Xie Jin didn't answer, but asked him directly, "Are you interested?"

"Why not?" Yuan Hao laughed.

If this thing can be made, how much money will it have to earn? This is incomparable to the tea brick business.

Chang Xi didn't intervene this time, but observed secretly, but she was thinking about what kind of alliance relationship these two people had, in short, it was weird that she couldn't tell.

"If you're interested, it's easy. I'll write a book and send it to Princess Qianrong." Xie Jin glanced at Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan immediately handed the sealed letter to Yuan Hao.

Yuan Hao looked at the letter, and then looked at Xie Jin. Has the terms been negotiated?In fact, he still has a lot of questions, but from Xie Jin's appearance, he doesn't intend to answer them.

"I will certainly forward this letter to my mother."

Chang Xi was watching quietly at first, but when she heard Yuan Hao refer to Princess Qianrong as her mother, she was startled, but she didn't realize that Yuan Tailiang was actually a relative of the emperor.

Seeing Chang Xi's surprised expression, Yuan Hao shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Didn't I mention my mother to Mrs. Chang?"

"Maybe I mentioned it, sorry, I didn't remember it, but I remember it now." Chang Xi said in a sincere manner, without any fear or embarrassment.

And based on Yuan Hao's age, Princess Qianrong is definitely not too old, she should be the daughter of the old emperor, so Yuan Hao is the grandson of the old emperor.

This identity is really useful.

But the strange thing is that Xie Jin can sit on the throne in front of this royal family member. This is really not in line with the feudal dynasty's ceremonies of monarchs and ministers. This doubt is just fleeting. She is weak now and doesn't want to know too much , or die faster.

"By the way, Master Yuan, I also want to ask, about tea bricks, how much tax does your municipal bureau have to pay?" She has been wondering about this question for a long time, "Since tea bricks are a new thing, Sir Yuan, I have some A small suggestion, or one or two for your reference."

Yuan Hao smiled, "Please tell me."

Chang Xi is being rude now. Ever since she planned to start the tea brick business, she has studied the Shibo Department. The Shibo Department has the absolute right to speak in overseas trade, and the export and import of goods have to follow this yamen. In dealing with them, without the certificate issued by them, the goods cannot go out or come in.

Of course smuggling is not included in this list.
