Chapter 35 The Mysterious Ling Jing

Ling Jing held the lotus flower, An An held the inscription, at the door of the bookstore, and sure enough, it opened soon.

"Out of the mud but not stained,... wonderful, wonderful!

"Little girl, how do you sell this purple lotus?"

A 20-year-old scholar came up to ask Ling Jing.

"Brother, this is my elder sister who carefully cultivated it. You must know that lotus flowers are rare here, especially purple ones.

Not much, five cents a flower, no bargaining"

Ling Jing's clothes were made by Yu Yueqing, and they were long skirts.

There is a layer of yarn added to the skirt, which looks like a tutu.

The scholar saw that the clothes the siblings were wearing were pretty good, and the poems they mentioned were also wonderful.

"Okay, give me this basket. I'll return this basket to you tomorrow!"

Ling Jing didn't expect to sell so many at once.There are more than 50 pieces in this basket, and the scholar gave 250 wen.

"Okay, tomorrow, I'll come here to pick it up."

Ling Jing was not satisfied, this rare thing, a basket of more than 200 Wen, although a lot of money, but it is small money.

So, she went to the storytelling place, which was not ordinary, but the largest storytelling teahouse in the town.

"By the way, this lotus fairy will come down to play one day.

Seeing a pool of clear water, I couldn't help but bow and taste it.Accidentally, the skirt fell into the water.

Within a few days, the pond was full of purple lotus flowers.

This flower should only exist in the sky, but accidentally falls into the mortal world! "

Ling Jing's voice was pleasant, and she repeated short stories, attracting many wealthy ladies to watch.

This storytelling tea house only accepts rich people, and the seat fee for an hour alone costs two taels.

"Little girl, your story is interesting. And this purple lotus, I have never seen it before. Is it really a drop from the sky?"

A delicate young lady walked up to Ling Jing and asked, with an aggressive look.

"Miss, I'm just telling a funny story. But this lotus is indeed the only one."

"Hey, look, there is a poem there, what kind of font is that, I have never seen it before."

But no matter what other people asked, Ling Jing always smiled mysteriously.

"Let me see, these two children may be young masters and young ladies who ran away from someone's family.

Look at their temperament, and this inscription. "

"Well, maybe! Little girl, how do you sell these flowers?"

Surrounded by a dozen or so women, they all came out of the storytelling teahouse to watch the fun.

If it was before, they just sent the maids away.

But now, I heard that a good word was mentioned, so I am not convinced to take a look.

"Miss, this purple lotus is rare, one tael of silver per flower!"

Ling Jing felt that it was worth it, but the others muttered.

I feel more and more that Ling Jing and sister don't know that a tael of silver is worth a lot.

"Okay, give me ten flowers!"

A careless young lady with a loud voice asked the maid to give her money.

"Xu Tian, ​​you are used to arty, can you understand that inscription?

Give me ten flowers, and I will go home and have a good time with my mother, unlike someone who can't even read.

Not to mention, what is so special about this gentleman of flowers. "

In fact, she doesn't understand either, but maybe she can't say it, she has to pretend to understand it.I also quietly wrote down the inscription.

Ling Jing understood the psychology of this group of people, but she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

"Sister, let's go."

Xiao An was very clever, pulling Ling Jing around and turning away the people behind her.

It's just the phrase "Out of the mud but not stained, clean ripples but not demon, the gentleman of flowers is also."

Overnight, it spread throughout the entire literati circle in the town.Even Wenqing heard about it and thought it was wonderful.

On Yu Yueqing's side, Qian Hu Caishi Street was asked to sell plums, and she and Lingling were selling watermelon ice at the entrance of Jiang Qifeng's shop.

"What, ten cents for a cup, it's better to grab the money!"

Someone heard the price and yelled loudly.

In fact, the bamboo that Yu Yueqing cut is very large, and this bamboo cup is at least a thousand milliliters.

"Hey, I have no experience. You may not be able to buy this kind of cold melon in Beijing. If you have the opportunity to eat such a cheap one, you still pick and choose. Be content!"

Jiang Qifeng spoke coldly, returning to his usual deserted appearance.

"That's right, did you hear that, even Mr. Jiang said it's a rare item. People in Beijing may not be able to eat it. It's a bargain for ten pennies."

Some people passed by often and knew Jiang Qifeng.There were also some who came to cheer for Jiang Qifeng's good looks.

Yu Yueqing knew that Jiang Qifeng helped her on purpose, and she was suddenly grateful.

"Don't buy it and get out of the way, I will buy it.

Sister, bring me five cups and take them away.Put more ice, it's a luxury to eat ice in summer. "

After the woman finished speaking, everyone realized that the ice cubes were worth a lot of money.

About an hour later, the big barrel bottomed out, and there should be 800 cups sold. Yu Yueqing counted, more than [-] cups.

Eight taels of silver is really hard to earn!
At this time, I saw Ling Jing with a bright face.

"When did you come back? Are you tired? I'll treat you to noodles!"

When Yu Yueqing saw Ling Jing and his brother, Qian Hu was not happy.

"Sister, me, and me. I'm also sold out, so amazing!"

Yu Leqing smiled, seeing that they were similar to children, her heart warmed.

"I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I thought I was very powerful. You are really better than blue."

Several people flattered each other, Jiang Qifeng could only curl his lips when he heard it in the room.

It's like a raccoon dog, I've never seen such a narcissistic one.

"Big sister, Huihui is in the school. It's almost time to finish school. You should go back quickly. Let's cook something for ourselves. Didn't you buy us noodles and a pot?
We have a lot of wild vegetables and fungi in our house, we can eat enough. "

Ling Jing took the opportunity to quietly stuff the money into Yu Yueqing's cuff.

Yu Leqing touched the heavy silver bag, and looked at Ling Jing suspiciously, this is too much!
"Boss, big sister, this is the money I sold the plums. The plums are so fragrant, I tasted two."

Qian Hu was too embarrassed to scratch his head,

About forty catties of plums were sold for more than 120 Wen.

Yu Yueqing took two strings of thirty Wen from the basket and gave them to Qian Hu and Ling Jing.

"Sister, we don't want it. We are happy to help you!"
"Yes, big sister, the man-in-law is right, I think so too!"

Now, everyone knows that Ling Jing is a girl, so Qian Hu starts calling her a man-in-law.

"Not much, take it first.

Ling Jing, I will come to see you tomorrow. "

Yu Yueqing wanted to give Ling Jing money alone, and find someone to repair the ruined temple by the way.

The mosquito coils brought today were not sold, but it went so smoothly, and it was indeed thanks to Jiang Qifeng's credit.

"This is a mosquito coil made by myself, with green pine nut powder in it, which smells good and can repel mosquitoes.

Thank you for helping me promote it today, it is tacky to mention money, and I will give you two boxes of mosquito coils. "

Yu Yueqing took out the porcelain box, the box was very delicate and delicate.

It's just that it's not expensive porcelain, Jiang Qifeng is even more puzzled by her.

Yu Yueqing thought of Yuanwai Qin, who would abduct him to the Qin residence later and beat him up.

 Ling Jing looks amazing.
