Yan Cigui.

Chapter 16

Lin Yunyan stood still and looked up at the shop sign.

There are three big characters in the letter, Taohezhai.

She had heard of this place, but it was the first time she had come back.

When she heard the name of the shop, it had changed hands for two years.

Looking up, the windows facing the street on the second floor are half open.

"Third Master, Jun..." Chen Gui paused, and simply changed it to be correct, "Master, that nobleman has arrived."

Lin Xun nodded: "Have you seen him?"

Chen Gui said softly: "It seems that he went upstairs from the back door of the shop, and my younger brother didn't see him."

Lin Xun stroked his beard.

It's fine if one side goes forward and the other side goes behind.

As for the origin of the other party, anyway, I have been curious until now, and there is not much difference between a moment earlier and a moment later.

Lin Yunyan entered the shop after Lin Xun.

Jing Dabao was waiting at the stairs. He had already heard Xu Jian's identity, so he gestured for him to go upstairs.

Then, he saw Lin Yunyan frowned.

Seems to be dissatisfied?
Jing Dabao glanced at his round belly.

Do you think he is in the way?
That's right, it's just such a narrow opening, and his fat figure is going to this stop...

The elders are more casual, it doesn't matter if you squeeze or bump into each other, but this is a princess, even in men's clothes, she is still a delicate girl.

Jing Da was very knowledgeable, since he couldn't move his seat at the bottom, he lifted his foot up and led the way: "The steps are a bit steep, nobleman, be careful where you step."

squeak-

squeak-

When the nobles all went upstairs, Jing Dabao took another look, and the princess' face became even more serious.

Could it be that the princess doesn't like climbing stairs?
Lin Yunyan reached out and rubbed the center of her brows.

Xu Jian is really amazing.

The leg is not broken, and if you can walk, you can walk up such stairs casually?
Chen Gui said that if the shop has a backyard, then there will be a house. Obviously, the meeting place can be set on the ground, but they have to climb a flight of stairs.

Based on her understanding of Xu Jian, this is very likely to be a part of testing. She wants to see how she reacts to "climbing the stairs". The greater the reaction, the less blind she is.

Lin Yunyan could guess that she was not happy.

Xu Jian had better be a blind cat, but he bumped into a dead mouse and made a mistake.

If not, she seized the opportunity and had to think about it carefully, how could it be so troublesome to hurt her leg!

Jing Dabao knocked on the door.

Soon, the door was opened from the inside.

It was a young boy who opened the door.

When Lin Xun saw it, he felt more at ease. Yun Yan said that the other party was a junior, and she really didn't lie to him.

The servant got out of the way, Lin Xun entered the private room, raised his eyes and saw the person standing by the round table, and swallowed the word "virtuous nephew" abruptly.

Young, yes.

Junior, that's right.

But he is Fu Guogong!
He, Lin Xun, is just the younger brother of an uncle!

Can you have the audacity to call someone a "virtuous nephew"?

Lin Yunyan took a step forward, lowered her eyes, and said in a calm tone, "The Duke is in good health."

Lin Xun also wanted to salute, but when he heard this sentence suddenly, he couldn't help but glance at Xu Jian's leg.

When greeting Fu Guogong, can you say "you are in good health"?

How could Yun Yan have such a trouble?

"Third Master, Princess," Xu Jian bowed back, "Please take a seat."

Lin Xun was still thinking about the question just now, so he ignored the fact that Xu Jian recognized Lin Yunyan at a glance, said a few words politely, and sat down.

The servant came forward to offer tea.

Lin Yunyan is no stranger to him.

His name is Shen Chen, two relatives chosen by Xu Jian's grandfather for him, and they grew up together since childhood.

In the past, Lin Yunyan didn't understand martial arts, and Xu Jian was not good at it. If it wasn't for Shen Chen and Xuan Su's protection, she would have lost her life long ago.

It's a pity that under such a conspiracy, the few of them failed to figure out their tricks in the end.

Shen Chen and Xuan Su were killed successively, she and Xu Jian were trapped to death in the fire...

Thinking of this, Lin Yunyan turned her eyes to Xu Jian.

Xu Jian's demeanor was composed, but Lin Yunyan didn't see any clues just from the surface.

He noticed Lin Yunyan sizing her up, raised her eyebrows, and returned her gaze with a half-smile.

Lin Yunyan felt a little surprised in her heart.

In her memory, she had never seen Xu Jian with such an expression.

Except when he couldn't agree with the Liu family, Xu Jian was always steady and restrained.

The empress dowager also said that after all, Xu Jian has a calmness beyond his age after inheriting the Duke.

Words like frivolous, flamboyant, presumptuous, never fell on Xu Jian.

Xu Jian in front of her made her feel strange.

Xu Jian didn't intend to continue the lawsuit, he took a sip of tea, and said straight to the point: "The business in Honest Alley, since the Chengyi House is interested in participating, it should have some insights, right?"

Lin Xun said: "The mansion discussed it before, that alley..."

"I can't talk about opinions," Lin Yunyan interrupted Lin Xun, "The Duke originally wanted to buy an alley with his family, right?

You have made such a generous move, and you already have a plan for how to make money in the future.

We are just taking a share of the pie. The Duke will give the big head, and we will take the small head. Naturally, your opinion shall prevail.

isn't it, uncle? "

Lin Xun nodded hurriedly: "Yes!"

I almost forgot just now, he is just an accompanying guest, and Yun Yan will come to discuss business, and she can't do it for her.

Xu Jian's eyes turned between Lin Xun and Lin Yunyan.

"Do you make money..." Xu Jian laughed and said, "To tell you the truth, I never thought about making money when I bought Honest Lane. I quit the Ministry of War and have nothing to do on weekdays. I just bought an alley. I don't Lack of money, I don’t care if Honest Lane pays back its capital in a few years, it doesn’t matter if it loses money, your government plans the same as me?”

Lin Xun felt his scalp go numb.

He had never dealt with Xu Jian before, only heard some rumors, none of which was "acting like a dude".

Could it be that injury changes a person's temperament?

wrong.

This behavior is not considered a dude. Buying fields, land, and shops is a serious business, not cockfights. Gamblers come and go, and the money disappears.

That is, it is not in line with their sincere intent.

However, this makes their ideas all the more valuable.

The charter is all set out, there is a lot to do, and there is a profitable business easily, Fu Guogong should not refuse.

"That's the case..." Lin Yunyan pretended to be deliberate, and said, "You are willing to discuss with us because you have a good relationship. I have the audacity to ask, can the Lord send the Buddha to the west and buy it in another alley? "

As soon as these words came out, not to mention what Xu Jian felt when he heard it, Lin Xun's scalp became numb, and his whole body became numb.

How is this cheeky?
You can't say such things even after ten layers of city wall skin.

Fortunately, my mother was not present. If she was told to listen, the old man would probably hold her breath in her throat.

Today is really strange, Xu Jian is different from the rumors, since Yun Yan stepped into this private room, she also speaks with a stick and a gun, which is different from her usual.

Is this the way to talk about business?

Although he doesn't have much experience, he has also run errands and handled errands for his elder brother. He has never seen such a way.

Duke Fu would not be happy to hear such a request.

I saw Xu Jian leaning back in the chair: "What if I don't change?"

"Then it's up to Chen Gui to discuss with Jingdong's family how to make money," Lin Yunyan answered as a matter of course, "You just need to be a shopkeeper."
