Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 34

The cellar in the small courtyard is not big, and after placing two hundred wine jars, Cheng Fu asked Endo and the others to stop moving in.But the business of buying jars and bringing in fruits and flowers did not stop. With the help of Aunt Hua, the six neighbor aunts kept helping each other every day, which completely freed the entire Cheng family from these heavy jobs.In about ten days, they completed the brewing of [-] altars of wine.

Cheng Fu estimated that these were enough for the early stage of the opening of the tavern.Now all that remains is to build the house she needs.

Aunt Hua's man, Ke Xiang, is just like what Aunt Hua described as a big and three rough. When Cheng Fu saw him in person, he couldn't believe that Shui Sheng was his son.Shuisheng is not tall, fair and thin, and shy. He looks neither like Ke Xiang nor Aunt Hua.

Ke Xiang is indeed a straightforward person who doesn't stick to small details. When he heard that Cheng Fu was going to hire craftsmen to build the house, he didn't ask the price, and just said it would be hired.Aunt Hua elbowed him on the side, and smiled awkwardly at Cheng Fu, hoping that the other party would not blame Ke Xiang for his recklessness.Cheng Fu didn't think there was anything wrong with Ke Xiang's attitude at all, but he didn't agree immediately, but asked them to sit down first.

"Uncle Ke, the building I want to build is quite complicated. My idea is to draw up a serious contract to clarify the responsibilities and wages of both parties." She wants to build a good building and let the other party make money. This is not a conflict.The contract is beneficial to both parties.

Ke Xiang came back to his senses, slapped his head, and realized that he was too sloppy before. He was looking for work for his brother, not talking about the construction period, engineering amount and wages. What to do if he suffered a big loss.Although the little girl is her neighbor and seems to be quite reliable, who knows if something will go wrong halfway.It's different with the contract in hand. If she suddenly wants to temporarily increase the work in the future and doesn't want to pay more, the brothers can still sit down with her and discuss with her based on the contract.

Cheng Han was responsible for drawing up the contract, and attached a large sample of the building drawn by his sister. Ke Xiang and Aunt Hua were not very literate, but fortunately they had a talented son, Shui Sheng.Ke Xiang called his sworn brothers to Cheng's house. There were thirteen of them, about the same age as Ke Xiang, in their prime of life, and everyone seemed to have been weather-beaten. These years have not been easy.Shui Sheng read the contents of the contract aloud to them one by one, and after confirming that there was no objection, he asked them to press their fingerprints on the contract one by one, and Cheng Fu had already signed his name and stamped his seal.

The tavern in Jinling is different from that in the capital city. Cheng Fu intends to spend a lot of money, so the construction period is at least half a year. Considering the placement of nearly a thousand jars of wine, she asked the craftsmen to build the warehouse first.At the same time, Gao Sheng in the capital was worried that they didn't have enough money, so he had someone send them bank notes if they had a surplus.

These days, spending money is like running water, and Cheng Fu did plan to borrow money from the ticket office, and the money sent by Gao Sheng can be said to be timely.

Wu's second room
After recovering from her injuries, Zi'er consciously returned to Wu Ying's side to serve her. Wu Ying's attitude was the same as before, and Zi'er was greatly relieved.She is a concubine who is a servant of Israel, besides her color, what else should her master cherish.She has to work harder on her master before she grows old, so that the other party can take care of her in the future and give her a good old age.

When Ding Tong came in, he saw that Zi'er was fanning Wu Ying with half of her shoulders open, and her eyes turned away unnaturally.

"Go down." Wu Ying leaned on the rocking chair and read idle books, looking bored.

Zi'er bowed her body, gathered her clothes, and left with a low eyebrow.

Ding Tong also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The details of Cheng's brothers and sisters have been found out."

Wu Ying put down the book and was at a loss.He didn't expect that Ding Tong came here because of the Cheng family brothers and sisters. In fact, after so many days, he almost forgot.But Ding Tong specially came to report, indicating that the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family should have some background.

"The brothers and sisters of the Cheng family were originally not named Cheng, but Gu. They were the sons and daughters of the Duke of Liang, Gu Zheng. They were expelled from the family a few months ago and settled in Jinling with the help of friends in Beijing and China. Recently, this third Miss Gu, no, should be called Miss Cheng now." A large amount of wine was brewed, and craftsmen were hired to build buildings, no doubt for business..." Wu Ying started to venture into shopping malls at the age of 12, and her contacts spread all over the country. Ding Tong managed some news channels, and soon found out the past of the Cheng brothers and sisters. Including the turmoil of Gu Changyan's marriage contract, and the reason why their brother and sister were expelled from the clan.

"Speaking of which, she owns the most distinctive restaurant in Beijing today, called 'Youjian Restaurant'." Ding Tong found out after inquiring that this restaurant is now making a lot of money. It opens every afternoon and closes at night, and does not sell soup and rice. Only wine and appetizers are served, accompanied by unique storytelling.Nowadays, if you want to have a drink or two, you must make a reservation in advance, otherwise you will definitely not be able to line up on the day.

Wu Ying raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect that they were a pair of poor little brothers and sisters.If he remembered correctly, the third young master and third miss of Liang Guogong's mansion is only 11 years old this year.

"You said Cheng Han entered Yubei Academy?" This also surprised him.

Jiyan has a good master Wang Shanhai who is well-known in Da Yue, and he himself is very talented and learned. If he hadn't had no interest in official career, he wouldn't have opened a small academy in Jinling and guarded the family's ancestral property to live.Although Wu Ying started business at a young age, in order not to let others gossip about the second wife, he also took the examination of a scholar a few years ago.Back then, three of the top five candidates in his same subject were students from Ji Yan, and there were only three students from Yubei Academy who took the entrance examination that year, which shows that this person is very good.

"Yes, I heard that Ji Shanchang got an A in the test paper."

Wu Ying narrowed her eyes, "The Cheng brothers and sisters are definitely not in the pool." He believed in his own vision.

"That……"

"Keep watching." He wanted to see how far the two kids could go.

Time flies in a busy way. In late August, the warehouse has been built and the foundation of the tavern has been completed.Cheng Fu also asked the neighbors and aunts to transport all the wine hoarded in Cheng's small courtyard to the warehouse. At the same time, she also brought in a batch of dried meat that could be stored for a long time.Even so, the warehouse remains empty.Considering that there will be more goods coming in in the future, she plans to go to the Chengdong Vegetable Market again and buy a few people who can kung fu to watch the door.

She also brewed a lot of wine and built warehouses and buildings, which soon spread around Shuimen Street.Everyone regards her as a small benefactor from a foreign country.

Gao Sheng's letter came along with September.In addition to the account books and bank notes of the capital industry, Gao Sheng also brought news from the capital.Gu Changyu got married, and apart from the fact that the dowry wasn't very generous, the wedding ceremony was pretty good.And Gu Changxi's marriage has also been decided, it is Pei Guogong Lu Yichun, who will leave the cabinet in March next year.The wedding date of Liang Guogong Gu Zheng has also been set, also in the coming year.The wedding date of the fourth prince Zhao Yanran and Miss Zhang Wanqing is in the twelfth lunar month.What's more, the crown princess recovered from her illness.

Cheng Fu didn't expect Gao Sheng to bring news related to the Chen family. The matter of Chen Mengling and Song Shaoxi is not new in the capital. Song Shaoxi's wife, Jing Shi, was worried that Chen Mengling would replace her, so she made a stupid decision, behind Song Shaoxi's back He brought a matchmaker to Chen's house, intending to accept Chen Mengling as a concubine for Song Shaoxi, but was thrown out by Chen's family with gifts, causing gossip all over the capital.Both the old man and the old lady of the Song family were ill with anger, and Song Shaoxi was quite ashamed in court.

As for her little friends Weng Qimin and Xu Ye, one eats, drinks and has fun all day long, and the other honestly works in the Imperial Academy.Cheng Fu already knew these things in the letters sent by Weng Qimin and Xu Ye respectively, and they knew more details than Gao Sheng did. Warm.

There was only one thing, neither of which was mentioned in the letter.It was the entanglement between Xu Ye and Wuding County Prince's Mansion.

It turned out that the woman who set Xu Ye up in Zhucui Courtyard that day was Ning Qian, the daughter of Prince Wuding's wife, who is also the eldest daughter, but in order to marry the current princess of the county, Prince Wuding did a particularly scumbag thing, and it was a lot of words There is a particularly bloody thing in this book—relegating the wretched wife to a side concubine, and the concubine's daughter became a concubine. Because the first wife couldn't bear such humiliation, she had no intention of bowing her knees to beg for life under the eyes of the new concubine. Abandoning her only daughter Ning Qian, she shaved her hair and went home.I heard that I even went to a nunnery far away from the capital.There is no room for maneuver.

Ning Qian is two years older than Ning Ying, and she has already reached the age to marry, but she doesn't have a mother Zhang Luo, and her father doesn't care. She is looking for marriage.She also knew that even if the princess of the county would marry her off in the end, it would not be much better than the other party's family background.

Ning Qian is very anxious, she is also an ordinary woman, she likes young talents, wants to be rich in her life, and the most important thing is to be able to be the head of the family and no longer be bullied by others.I don't know where I learned about Ning Ying's love for Xu Ye, and after hearing about Xu Ye and the fifth house of the Xu family, I made up my mind to snatch the marriage from Ning Ying.In front of King Wuding, she justified her defense: "Ning Ying stole my daughter-in-law status, so it's not too much for me to snatch her marriage.

Father, I am your first child, why do you never have mercy on me?What did my mother do wrong, and what did I do wrong?I can't blame anyone for the elders, but you can't be so partial.Ning Ying is now a daughter-in-law, and will be the princess in the future, and she can choose from the talents in the capital.But I have nothing, I... I only have Xu Lang.You can help your daughter. "The Ning family was disturbed by this outright appeal.

But the strange thing is that after that day, it gradually began to spread in the capital that the marriage between Wuding County Prince's Mansion and the Xu family was a certainty, Xu Ye fell in love with Ning Ying, and the two families had exchanged tokens in private.

Gao Sheng also wrote his doubts in the letter to Cheng Fu. The Xu family father and son would occasionally go to the tavern to drink and listen to books. Sometimes there would be acquaintances who wanted to share a table with them, including the Ning family children. But both father and son refused without hesitation.Once this kind of thing happens frequently, it can only show that the rumors outside are not credible.But Gao Sheng couldn't figure out why there were such rumors.

Cheng Fu confirmed that nothing bad happened to the people she cared about, so she felt relieved.Sooner or later, they will meet again, so please wait for a few more years, and when her wings are strong enough, she will definitely go back and be their backer.
