General doctor's wife

Chapter 182 Discussing the Caravan
Suzhou is bitterly cold in winter, and the earth dragon is still burning inside the house. Inside the house, there are a group of serious and solemn people standing.

They knew that their mission here was arduous and trivial, and they also knew that they came because of their master's trust.

"Yes, I will not disgrace my life!" He is not a soldier, but he looks like a soldier.

Because they, like soldiers, have their own battlefields.

It's just that the soldiers' battlefield is on the battlefield, and their battlefield is in the back house.

"Okay, tonight is the first day we arrived in Suzhou. I specially ordered the kitchen to cook the special roasted whole lamb here. We have finished talking about ourselves. Fuling, you go and call the person who is working in the house now." Everyone, come in, and everyone on duty will send a portion of mutton." Qin Ranran said with a smile when she saw that everyone had already understood her responsibilities. ,
Fu Ling responded, got up and walked out.

Not long after, the existing cook and a few rough envoys' wives and servants walked in tremblingly.

Qin Ranran comforted them with a smile: "Today is a good time to get to know you. You have worked hard these days. From now on, follow the rules of the house and work hard. Unfortunately, I can't take you with me."

The few people were still a little nervous, but in desperation, Qin Ranran asked them to bring wine and meat, and went back to the kitchen to enjoy themselves.

The scene in the house was full of enthusiasm. Li Guanshi took a bottle and said mysteriously: "Madam, try this wine. I got it from the Persians."

While talking, he took a small white porcelain bowl and slowly poured half of it.

Qin Ranran saw that the wine did not look like the usual clear transparent color, or the mellow old wine color, but a bright red color with a ruby-like luster, which was even more radiant against the white porcelain bowl, which was really beautiful.

Bow your head and sniff lightly, there is also a sweet and sour fruity aroma.

Under Li Guanshi's expectant eyes with a smile on his face, Qin Ranran took a sip, and felt a soft fruity aroma mixed with wine filled her mouth. She was delighted to feel this novel taste, enjoying the With a sweet and sour aftertaste in the mouth.

"Uncle Li, this wine tastes really good, and it's not the same as the usual plum wine or other fruit wine." Qin Ranran said after enjoying it.

Li Guanshi laughed and said: "This is wine. Persians make it from grapes. It is said that drinking it often can keep a woman young forever. I bought some from a Persian businessman I know well. If my wife likes it, I will send someone to drink it in a while." move."

"How can I win people's favor?" Qin Ranran said politely with a smile.

Li Guanshi waved his hands again and again: "I'm not used to drinking, but I still like our Da Zhou's daughter Hong and Shaodao."

"Then I won't be disrespectful." Qin Ranran was not polite, and continued, "Fu Ling, you and Hong Xiu will go to Uncle Li's in a while and bring back all his good wine."

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere returned to cheerfulness. They talked about interesting things after they came to Suzhou, and told Qin Ranran about the customs and customs of Suzhou.

"I've heard people say that the wife of the governor's family is a little...not smart enough. It is said that she often causes troubles for Governor Yang outside, and what she says is what Governor Yang feels the most." Mai Sui also talked about the rumors in the market. Some gossip.

"That's right, I went to the governor's mansion to sell flowers that day, and I heard the woman there say, the governor's wife always said that in Suzhou, who can control her." Chen Yuezhu also said.

Qin Ranran took another sip of the bright red wine in the glass: "It seems that the management of the governor's mansion is also very lax, and even a rough envoy woman dares to spread the words of the master casually outside, so it can be seen that the governor's wife is no big deal ability."

"There is another nephew." Lu Jiu followed up, "It can be seen that there is no good way to manage the family, and to educate future generations."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"There is also Commander Jiang. His wife is also from a family of military generals. She has an upright temper and loves to fight against injustices. She is also skilled in martial arts. When she is free, she will fight against Commander Jiang at home." Chen Yuezhu continued.

Chen Qingyu pinched his sister's bun: "How do you know so much?"

Chen Yuezhu shook her head: "I just learned this, and I can't even get any information. Isn't it a waste of learning?"

Zheng Hongwen smiled shyly, and said: "I met Commander Jiang's son in the school. He is very serious and eager to learn, not the kind of doting at home. He and I can be regarded as good friends now. Listen to what he said. It means that his tutoring is very strict."

Qin Ranran asked strangely, "Didn't you study with Mr. Kang? Why did you go to school?"

"Mr. Kang said that I should go to the school to get to know more people and learn more about things, lest the one raised at home can only read." Zheng Hongwen scratched his head with a smile and said.

Qin Ranran nodded: "Mr. Kang is right. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. If you have more knowledge, you will naturally understand the knowledge in the books more thoroughly."

"What Madam said is very true." Mr. Kang agreed, "I still plan to spend a while, after everyone settles down in Suzhou, I will let the children follow the caravan and go a few more places."

When talking about caravans, Qin Ranran's eyes lit up immediately: "I want to build a few caravans between Suzhou and Shangjing. It's really hard to support our big family with the general's salary alone. I want to earn more money." some silver."

Mother Liu narrowed her eyes with a smile when she heard the words: "The money earned by Madam is for making cosmetics. The general gave us a bank note some time ago. I figured it would be enough for several years. Tomorrow I will sort out the account books for you." The madam sent it, and the madam should also catch up the accounts of the house."

Qin Ranran didn't want to care about it with a bitter face, but she knew that she couldn't ignore it, so she finally changed the topic back: "Then what do you think about this caravan?"

"Ma'am, there are many bandits and water bandits along the way, the safety of your cargo..." Mr. Kang spoke first.

Qin Ranran smiled and said, "Don't worry about it. The general took over a water bandit leader on the way. He seems to be a useful person along the way. He is also a troubled Gongsheng. I plan to ask him to help me escort the caravan."

"I know a few Persian merchants who can buy the goods at a low price. Such exquisite Western goods are hard to find in Dazhou." Li Guanshi also said.

"I also know a shopkeeper who is very loyal and reliable, but his hometown was hit by a disaster and he was the only one left, so he went to Suzhou to keep accounts for others to eat." Liu's mother also said.

"There are caravan escorts, western goods, and shopkeepers. Hongxiu is the one who contacted the shopkeeper for me to keep accounts, and now the store is missing." Qin Ranran counted with her fingers, "Everyone really helped I'm very busy."

Ms. Liu smiled and said, "Tomorrow I will ask the shopkeeper to come over. Madam, you can also meet me. I have been in touch for a while, so I am a responsible person."

　Two more!Comrade Qin Ranran is going to start working in many ways and make a fortune!
