Chapter 43 The shop is worth a thousand taels of gold

The conversation in the study did not end until dawn.Gongsun Wuyou knew that Gongsun Jin was also in the mansion early in the morning, so he took him to Qingjun courtyard for breakfast, looked at the soy milk and soup dumplings made by Qianzimo, and a long strip things, they were dumbfounded.Their curious baby-like eyes were all caught by Qian Zimo.

"This milk-like thing is called soy milk, which is freshly ground from beans. This long thing is called deep-fried dough sticks. You can eat it occasionally. You all know this bun, but what about the buns I made? , the stuffing inside is not stuffing, but chicken soup." Qian Zimo explained patiently, they were not interested in the first two, but they were a little curious about the latter.Soup can be filled in the steamed stuffed bun?
Qian Zimo glanced at the extremely strange eyes of Gongsun Wuyou and Gongsun Jin, and then at Gongsun Jiuye's calm expression, she was inexplicably displeased.

Gongsun Wuyou and Gongsun Jin picked up the chopsticks, picked up a small soup dumpling and put it to their mouths to test the temperature, then put it into their mouths in one gulp, and then chewed with a blank expression.Chewing and chewing, the two glanced at each other, and then gave Qian Zimo a thumbs up!He also had an admiring expression on his face.

Qian Zimo glanced at Gongsun Jin and Gongsun Wuyou indifferently.My heart slanders: You can be successful like this with just this little thing?What a bumpkin!
Gongsun Jiuye was confused by the expressions of the two of them. He also picked up his chopsticks and ate a soup dumpling.

"So-so. Nothing special."

Gongsun Jin and Gongsun Wuyou were dumbfounded.How tricky is Gongsun Jiuye's mouth?How could he say that something so delicious was nothing special?Qian Zimo, on the other hand, half-approved and half-opposed.Indeed, this thing is nothing special in modern times, it's just a bad street breakfast.But in this era, these things are unique, okay?
"Then don't eat it!" Qian Zimo brought the breakfast plate in front of Gongsun Jiuye to Gongsun Wuyou with a displeased face.When Gongsun Wuyou saw these delicacies, he couldn't help but cast a look at his father who deserves to be hungry.Gongsun Jin also had a gloating look on his face.Gongsun Jiuye smiled gently.He took away Gongsun Jin's breakfast plate at a speed that could not cover his ears.And said something shamelessly.

"Fifth brother, ask your sister-in-law to make you another." Gongsun Wuyou was instantly amused by his father's shameless behavior.

However, Gongsun Jin was annoyed by his unscrupulous fourth brother, and he reached out to grab the plate, but Gongsun Jiuye grabbed him tightly and couldn't move his hand.Gongsun Jin's face was so distorted that it was almost out of shape.Qian Zimo was also amused by their childish behavior.

"There's another one in the kitchen." Qian Zimo said lazily, then buried himself in his food.When Gongsun Jin heard this, his expression immediately returned to normal, and Gongsun Jiuye also immediately sent the stolen share to Gongsun Jin.A look of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.Unexpectedly, his Gongsun Jiuye would do such a thing of grabbing food from his younger brother!snort!It's all because of that woman!Before he knew it, Qian Zimo had been written down by Gongsun Jiuye again!
Gongsun Jincai didn't want it anymore, and pushed the plate in front of Gongsun Jiuye, and then flew away.

In the small kitchen, Bai Muting in Tsing Yi was preparing to go out with the ready-made dipping sauce. Looking at her masterpiece, she was quite satisfied. She raised her eyes and strode towards the door. Unexpectedly, someone was caught at the door. It hit me right.The well-prepared dipping sauce was also sprinkled all over the floor. The key point was that Gongsun was sprinkled all over his body, and the bottom of his skirt was also wet.

Gongsun Jin saw that his white clothes were instantly tainted by the smell of vinegar, his face froze instantly, his favorite white clothes!His image of Mr. Pianpian was tainted by the vinegary dipping sauce!
Bai Muting was stunned for a moment, seeing that Gongsun Jin's clothes were wet a lot and still smelled of vinegar, she immediately blushed.

"Prince Xian. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I'm sorry."

Gongsun Jin immediately came back to his senses, automatically ignoring the smell of vinegar on his body, and still had a signature smile on his face, but the smile looked fake and forced.

"It's nothing." After saying that, before Bai Muting could reply, Gongsun Jin disappeared.Only Bai Muting was left standing blankly at the door of the kitchen, messing around quietly.

Inside the restaurant, Qian Zimo took a look outside.He muttered while eating this thing in his mouth.

"Why haven't you come back?" The kitchen shouldn't be so long away from here.At this moment, Bai Muting walked in with her head down and small steps.

"My lord, my concubine, my young lord." Bai Muting bowed her head in embarrassment, and then sat down. Qian Zimo saw that her empty-handed dress was still wet, and then looked at Gongsun Jin for so long. They didn't come back, so they guessed what happened between the two.Of course, Gongsun Jiuye and his son also noticed it, but they kept silent in a tacit understanding.

Since they didn't ask, Bai Muting naturally wouldn't take the initiative to speak up.Instead, it changed the subject.

"Princess, Mu Ting came here today to ask the concubine's opinion. What will the concubine plan to give for my grandfather's birthday?" Bai Muting mentioned it, and Qian Zimo remembered that grand master Qian's birthday was the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. There are only three days left today.

"Sister Ting, shouldn't my aunt and uncle handle these things? Why do you want my sister to ask my concubine's opinion in person?" Qian Zimo was really curious.

"A few days ago, my uncle sent a letter saying that my grandfather was dying, so my parents returned to their hometown, and my two younger brothers were still young, so I left it to me to arrange the birthday ceremony of my grandfather." Bai Muting explained.She looked at Qian Zimo, a little embarrassed, and then caught a glimpse of Gongsun Jiuye's indifferent expression, and she couldn't help but think of the scene when she ran into Gongsun Jin just now, her heart was pounding, and then she blushed.

"Oh. Then let's go to the street to buy things later. It just so happens that my concubine has been busy recently." Qian Zimo automatically ignored Bai Muting's blushing face and pretended not to see it.

"Huh? Miss Bai, your face is so red." Gongsun Wuyou said curiously with his big black eyes open.When Bai Muting heard this, her body froze instantly.His face turned red up to his neck, and he looked at Qian Zimo at a loss, his face full of embarrassment.In fact, how could Gongsun Wuyou not know, but he did it on purpose.

"Young Prince." After waiting for a while, Bai Muting didn't see Qian Zimo or Gongsun Jiuye saying anything, so Bai Muting could only call out embarrassingly, then lowered her head to avoid her embarrassment.

Gongsun Jiuye had no choice but to cough lightly.Only then did Gongsun Wuyou shut up resentfully.

The weather in winter is very cold, and the weather that is about to snow is so cold that people don't want to go out.

But Qian Zimo couldn't help but go out, she went shopping with Bai Muting, and she also wanted to buy something by herself.Because the person in their family said that matters such as human relations should be taken care of by the princess!This made Qian Zimo want to strangle him to death!He didn't give her the right to be the mistress of the house, she's just a nominal princess, okay?
After finally going shopping, Bai Muting took Qian Zimo to the Fashion Jewelry Store after buying a lot of things and handing them to Xiao Si who brought them back home.Only then did Qian Zimo remember that Bai Muting had bought things from her.

"I heard that Fengshang's latest hairpin was released yesterday. I don't know if there will be any more when we go today." Bai Muting said with some anticipation and some helplessness.

"There should be." Qian Zimo said after a pause, but he didn't think so.Every time a new product is released in the fashion jewelry store, a copy will be reserved for her.Of course she didn't have to buy it specially.

When Bai Muting heard this, she smiled slightly.Then he took Qian Zimo's wrist and walked forward together.

along the way.The two were relatively silent, Bai Muting didn't know what he was thinking, but Qian Zimo was thinking, Ruoxue followed her during this time, and her ability to manage the shop was improving day by day, so let her help her manage the shop in the future.She can do other things too.

Qian Zimo and Bai Muting hadn't approached the entrance of Fengshang Jewelry Store yet.The door was crowded with people.Among them, most of them are young masters and young ladies from high-ranking officials and dignitaries.Why do men come to patronize Fashion?That's because fashion jewelry stores not only do women's business, but also do men's business.For example, men's favorite jade pendant folding fan and so on.

Among the shops opened by Qian Zimo, the inn is the least profitable.You know, the old house she bought is of great use, whether it is manpower or material resources, it is a waste of money.

"What's the matter?" Bai Muting went up to pull a girl in red and asked, she looked as if she was afraid that there would be no stock and bought it for her.

"Oh, Fengshang's accessories are too popular. The son of Ou Xiang's family wants to buy this store. The shopkeeper is entangled with him!" The son and daughter said anxiously.

The price of Fengshang Jewelry Store is very affordable, and the items are so good that ordinary people can afford them. However, no matter what they sell in Ou Xiang's shop, the price is sky-high!If they bought this for Ou Xiang's family, they wouldn't be able to buy such novel and unique things, especially things like hairpins, pearls and flowers.Thinking of this, everyone was anxious.

When Qian Zimo heard this, the corners of his mouth curved into an almost invisible arc.While Bai Muting was talking with people outside, she quietly left from the back and made a detour to enter the back door of the fashion jewelry store. The guard at the back door saw her and immediately invited her in. Qian Zimo waved his hand and walked up to him He said something in his ear, and then quickly returned to the door of the store.During this period, whether Qian Zimo's sense of presence was too low or her behavior was hidden, no one noticed that she had left.

And when Bai Muting turned around, Qian Zimo pulled her to squeeze forward.Before I walked in, I heard a woman's voice coming from inside.

"Master Jue, our boss said that you want to buy this store. Yes, 1000 million taels." The woman's words were interrupted by a middle-aged man's thick voice.

"What! 1000 million taels? Did your boss start from scratch?" These words were obviously a question, but many people present could hear the derogatory meaning in it, which was secretly talking about robbery.

"Anthracene, it's 1000 million taels less and I won't sell it." The woman's voice continued.

"That's fine! Call your boss out, and I'll discuss the matter with her." Ouyang Jue's voice sounded impatiently.But only the woman's voice continued to sound faintly.

"Our boss said that as long as the young master brings the money to the door of our store, the house deed will naturally be sent to your mansion."

What?Upon hearing the woman's words, Ouyang Jue became angry!If he was sent to the mansion, he would not be scolded bloody by his old-fashioned father!However, looking at the people outside waiting to buy things, the money will be earned back sooner or later.Thinking of this, he instantly felt a lot more balanced.

"Okay, the Japanese master will deliver 1000 million taels in a few days." Ouyang Jue turned around after speaking, but when the crowd gave way one after another and he was about to step out of the gate with his hind feet, he could only hear the woman The voice sounded faintly again.

"My lord, can you raise that much money in the past few days? If you can't, it doesn't matter if you can postpone it for a while. Our boss is talking about 1000 million taels of gold. This is not a small sum." The woman's voice As soon as it fell, Ouyang Jue almost fell down on the spot.

1000 million taels... gold?The people outside the door were also in an uproar!Only the corners of Qian Zimo's mouth turned up slightly.

"What? Didn't you say it was 1000 million taels? How did it turn into gold again? It really was a blatant robbery! Do you know who our young master is?" The middle-aged man beside Ouyang Jue scolded angrily.

The woman looked at them without the slightest sign of fear, and continued lightly.

"I know, the eldest son of Ou Xiang's family, I was interrupted by this master before I finished speaking just now." The woman pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said, when the middle-aged man heard her call himself the master, he immediately His face is embarrassing!He is just the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and being called that is more embarrassing than a slap in the face!
Ouyang Jue turned around.He looked at her with a pale face.He wanted to say that he was no longer buying a shop.However, in front of so many people.The words have been put out and cannot be taken back. Once he said he would not buy it, he would be ridiculed, saying that he bullied the common people. If he said buy it, the 1000 taels of gold is too much!Is his shop worth that much?Ouyang Jue's faint eyes were full of consideration.

"It's not impossible for me to give you 1000 taels of gold, but you have to sell your inn and pharmacy together. Otherwise, this small shop alone won't be worth that money." Ouyang Jue seemed to have thought of something. The way of words.

The woman didn't speak, but glanced at the crowd out of the corner of her eye, and saw Qian Zimo nod her head without a trace, and then she let go and said a good word.

"Cut! It's just a little girl! How dare you be so arrogant! Just wait for me!" Ouyang Jue scolded disdainfully.The middle-aged man also glanced coldly at the crowd before turning around and leaving with Ouyang Jue.

Ouyang Jue had just walked to the door when he heard a woman's voice coming from inside.

"Everyone, in the past few days, all Fengshang's items are on sale at a special price. Our boss said that the new store will open in a short time. At that time, please don't hesitate to visit us." The woman's voice came out, and Ouyang Jue's face turned black and blue!Only then did I realize that I had been tricked by someone!
