It is not easy to live in the capital. No matter which dynasty or generation, where the capital of a country is located, the ecology is the most complex. As far as the purpose is concerned, Ning Yi led the crowd to the north this time, first of all, he had to give Su Tan'er a front station, buy a house, inspect the location of the store, investigate the ecology of the place in the capital, and the ecology of the restaurant, whether it is the Su family's side or Yunzhu's side, there must be a rough arrangement, and all of this will be pressed in ten days and at most half a month, which is really a bit rushed.

In the past, the Su family could only be regarded as a small way in the capital, and they could be big cloth merchants, and every household had a little cheats, and the two kinds of cloth that the Su family was best at would send a little to the capital every year to consign, and know some shopkeepers, but that's just it. If you come to travel, people will naturally welcome you, maybe you will welcome you, come to do business and grab a job, that's another thing. The purchase of raw materials, where the workshop is opened, how to hire people, it is not easy to sort out a clue in the short term. If it weren't for the fact that it was imperative to split the family, Su Yu would not want his granddaughter and son-in-law to face such a stall with nothing.

After the separation, the Su family gave Su Tan'er the most, I am afraid that it is quite a lot of silver, as for the Su family's original workshops, shops, and skills north of the Yangtze River, it is still very far away from Bianliang. And silver is in Bianliang, and after a certain extent, it is of little significance.

This is the most developed era of commerce in the history of this land, the status of merchants has improved, the hoarding of wealth, and the gap between the rich and the poor has reached an extremely alarming level. But under the feudal system, all this does not give much of a shock, because wealth does not necessarily mean unlimited resources. Power is the most tangible thing in this era, and an official worth tens of thousands of taels will not envy a businessman worth millions of taels, no matter in terms of the resources he can get, the enjoyment he gets, the respect he gets, and so on, the former has the advantage.

This is especially true in the capital, and it is not surprising that there is no respect for being covered with money. Of course, things are a little different when you have a background.

“…… The place is not big. But in terms of elegance. It's still good, there are only four courtyards, the main hall is spacious, but some time has not been cleaned, just tidy up...... Next to it is the guest house, behind is the main house, and the kitchen and the people's quarters are all over there...... This tree in the main hall is nice. I like it, the yellow leaves are scattered in autumn and the atmosphere is very good...... There is a lotus pond in the courtyard of the main room, and the flowers have bloomed after a little clear of the silt every year......"

Came to Bianliang and arrived on the third day. Monk Jueming found a place for Ning Yi and them, which was not far from the Da Goods Street with the most shops in Bianliang City at this time, but this place located in the transition area was quite quiet, suitable for living, a total of four courtyards, and facing the river, a few trees on the side of the main hall, and the largest locust tree was afraid that it was hundreds of years old. The crown is green. It gives people a sense of intimacy and does not disrupt the formality of the main hall.

Each courtyard has some large and small garden buildings, which seem to have been carefully arranged. But what stands out is not ornamental but the breath of the living environment, a lotus pond in the backyard is accompanied by pavilions and mountain stones, lotus leaves and fields, lotus flowers have bloomed, and there is a refreshing and pleasant atmosphere in the summer light. And you can imagine what kind of lazy atmosphere there will be in autumn when the leaves in the courtyard turn yellow and fall slowly.

These gardens, I think it is through the hands of masters, every season and every weather will have its connotation, and it is not prominent, but it is a better dissolution for people. Even if Ning Yi doesn't have much research in this area, he can see its benefits.

"There's a river right outside and there's living water around, so it's not too hot in the summer...... The one next door is on duty in Dali Temple, but I heard that people can ......."

This Jueming monk had a handsome face, a white robe with wide sleeves, and stood under the eaves and casually introduced Ning Yi and the others. It's been three days since he came over, and after the first conversation, Ning Yi probably knew his background, he was originally called Zhou Changfu, the word Shaoqin, after the royal bloodline county king, he became famous in Jinghua when he was young, and he became a monk as a result. He practiced the Zen of entering the WTO, worshiped the master but did not enter the mountain gate, traveled extensively in the capital, participated in various poetry clubs to make friends, and interacted with various figures, but he was very strict.

It is said that he was a famous merry and talented man when he was young, and after becoming a monk, there are still many Qinglou women who are in love. It's just that after he became a monk, he didn't get close to women, he didn't drink alcohol and meat, he would go to the upper class meetings, and he also came and went to the lowest class people, put food and porridge in winter, practiced medicine to save people, and it is said that some people even saw him suck out the pus and blood from the wounds of half-dead beggars in an emergency. Ning Yi thought to himself that he might have been an idealist at first, but by the time he reached the age of forty, there was not much sharp thing on this monk's body, just like a round stone that had been washed by the river for many years, round and translucent. belongs to the kind of people who are the best and the worst to get along.,It's not too high, but it also has a hearty and free feeling.。

This time, with the people who came to see the house, Ning Yi was on his side, in addition to Xiaochan, Yunzhu, Jin'er, and Su Wenyu and Su Yanping, and over there were Jueming, Cheng Zhouhai, Qin Shaoyu, Wen Renfuji and the three brothers of the Qi family. Along the way, although the three brothers of the Qi family are well-known subordinates, they also get along well with Su Wenyu and Su Yanping, and they walk around with admiration. Although Qin Shaoyu was arranged by Qin Siyuan, Cheng Zhouhai and Monk Jueming were there, and he couldn't say much, Xiaochan and Jin'er looked around, Yunzhu was originally following Ning Yi at a distance, and was also pulled away by Jin'er soon after-she and Jin'er actually wouldn't live here.

The intention to buy this yard was immediately finalized, and if the things are good, money is naturally not a problem. From Cheng Zhouhai's words, Ning Yi also heard that this courtyard may have been the property of the county king's mansion before. Monk Jueming became a monk after the death of his parents, part of the family property was given to relatives, part of it was taken back to the court, and part of it was used by him to help the poor.

A few people didn't care about this cheapness, and after negotiating, they took a look. Although Cheng Zhouhai also asked about other things, Ning Yi is not a character who blindly takes advantage of others, such things as cloth, workshops, and finding people, so as not to always have to bother these leaders who work in the secret investigation department, and after a while, he will talk about poetry and poetry, such as the recent poetry meetings, and Yu Shaoyuan's "Wang Daofu", which is the most popular.

"Liheng finally came to the capital, this kind of place, you have to go and see it, right? Shao Yu should be very good at arranging this aspect. ”

After all, the Qin family is the owner, and when a few people talk, it is not good to completely leave Qin Shaoyu aside, so they have to find some topics to pull him in. Qin Shaoyu's personality seems to be quite simple, and he is a little confused: "Actually...... I'm not very good at poetry, but if this kind of poetry club is going to go recently, I've already inquired about it, and my uncle said that I want to entertain the good son of Ning......"

Ning Yi did not have any ill feelings towards this kind of young man who had just come into contact with the complex world, and Ha Luha smiled and expressed his gratitude: "However, I am not very interested in these poetry clubs, but they are the most famous buildings in Bianliang, and I want to go in and see them these days." ”

"Oh?" Cheng Zhouhai said with a smile, "Liheng just plans to take a look?" ”

"Just look, huh...... Brother Cheng knows the way, mainly for the restaurant, Yunzhu's bamboo is going to be opened in the capital, what is the best place in the capital, I still hope to be able to see with my own eyes, there is a concept, of course, I don't plan to grab business with them in the future...... In addition, there is a friend who may want to pay a visit. ”

Hearing him talk about Alum Tower, Monk Jueming smiled and said: "It's that teacher, girl, I heard that she and Liheng have known each other for a long time, I'm afraid I have to go to see each other." ”

Ning Yi smiled and nodded, this kind of contact for the sake of previous friendship is naturally not easy to make a big show, at most, when Master Li is free, he just calls the rest of the people to sit down. Ning Yi just agreed to the other party, and he had the heart to go to the alum tower to have a look. As for whether the other "childhood friends" have a deep friendship with him, he has no idea.

After chatting like this for a while, after having lunch outside at noon, Cheng Zhouhai and Wenren wanted to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Jueming also said goodbye. In the afternoon, Qin Shaoyu led Ning Yi and others to select various furniture and daily items, and they were selected until dusk.

After all, the house has been chosen, there is no shortage of money here, and Ning Yi also regarded this matter as accompanying everyone to go shopping and see the scenery of Bianliang, so he chose more than just a few pieces of furniture. A few people walked all the way from the street, and Jin'er pulled Yunzhu and Xiaochan in and out of various stores. She may not usually be like this, if it is only her and Yunzhu, or with one or two subordinates, it is not good to go to the store as a girl's house It is too exaggerated, but today Ning Yi and others followed, in her case, she can also be used as a husband's family to accompany her to buy things, and the feeling of having a shield behind her is different.

I only made an appointment to let the shopkeeper send the furniture I liked before, and as for some small items that I bought temporarily, including food and drink, fruit preserves, etc., I let two people take them. Then there was a small episode, when Jin'er happily bought a few clothes she liked, one of the subordinates who had empty hands was divided to do other things, Ning Yi and Qin Shaoyu were watching things by the shop next to them, Su Wenyu came over to pay for her, and then carried the package for her, she was not easy to refuse.

This kind of little thing happened inadvertently a few times in different ways, Su Wenyu was a little bolder, and he also tried to say a few words to her, but he was not rejected too much by Jin'er. Her answers and responses were quite polite, compared to the quarrel with Ning Yi, it was a very different appearance, and I think it was also what a truly cultivated lady could have at this time.

When the sun set, everyone was not far from the Wenhui Building, and on the way back from a walk, they heard a burst of laughter in front of them when they passed through a relatively remote alleyway.

"Little ~ Mi ~ Mi! Mushroom cool, have you seen my little ~ Mi ~ Mi? Haha......ha It's a golden snub-nosed monkey and I'm looking for my little golden monkey...... It's so high...... It's so big and cute...... But now it's gone, mushroom cool, you're wearing a skirt, can you show me a ......?"

The laughter was accompanied by the screams of the woman...... (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
