Chapter 192: Insider
(Thank you for the re-tipping of Tan Tan Meimei.) )
The clouds collect and the rain disperses, the dew droplets and flowers are thick, and the lingering time flies like a shuttle, regardless of the autumn wind swaying the window edges.
There was even more leakage, and the moment they woke up from Chunmeng, the two got dressed and got up, snuggled up on the chair, Su Jin stroked Rou Niang's hair and asked, "How is the business at home now?" Didn't they bring anything with them? ”
Rou Niang said angrily: "Now that I think about it, I asked, just now the slave family was ready to report to the master, but the master was so anxious." ”
"Xiao Beisheng is newlywed, it's excusable, it's not too late to ask now." Su Jin was actually a little ashamed, but he quickly forgave himself, who called his sixteen-year-old body a twenty-three-year-old soul hidden in his shell, it was an age with strong desires, no wonder he was.
"Since you left, the business at home has gradually been on the right path, the master's tricks are really wonderful, the sales of high-end silk and satin garments in Luzhou City have increased very quickly, nearly 1,000 pieces of ready-to-wear have been sold this month, and the profit is more than 1,000 yuan, Zhang Lao shopkeeper and Zhao Da shopkeeper smiled together, and before coming, he also asked the slave family to ask the big owner for them, and praised the son for his long-term vision, which is a last resort."
Su Jin was happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "I don't dare to do it even if I have no last resort, it's just a small skill of carving insects, this is not my credit alone, everyone worked together to get what we have today, and the improved clothing style designed by you and Huanniang is also indispensable." ”
Rou Niang said: "I can get the praise of the son, the slave family is happier than anything, this time I brought a few new styles, Sui'er sister and Huanniang have, Ming'er asked them to wear it for you to see, the master has a unique vision, and also helps me find the shortcomings." ”
Su Jin hugged her tightly and said: "It's hard for you to have not slackened off, Huanniang has also made a few styles, and when you go back, you will bring them back to Luzhou to make improvements, these things are very important, as I expected, in less than half a year, other businesses will follow my Su Ji clothes, and then focus on launching a batch of new styles, and leave them behind forever, understand?" ”
"The slave family understands, didn't the prince say last time, 'I have no people, I have new people, and I change when people are new', this old shopkeeper is on his lips every day."
Su Jin nodded and said, "You can understand this truth, what about the grain store?" What went wrong with the granary and the cloth silo? ”
"The grain shop is still supplied in accordance with the master's orders, and there are not many rumors on the street, and a few warehouses are safe, but the old shopkeeper Zhang said that it is a little unusual to be so calm, but he is worried about it."
Su Jin laughed and said: "How can there be such a thing, it's okay to still hope that something will happen?" The Chamber of Commerce didn't find fault because they hoarded more food, and they didn't dare to report me Su Ji hoarding Juqi, for fear of setting fire to himself, and how could he talk about others if his buttocks were not clean; Second, I am afraid that they don't know the location of the new granary, they can't find the granary, and they won't do anything about framing me Su Ji, so they have to tell Zhang Da that they must think about the safety of the granary, and someone must inspect it nearby, and they must not be exploited by the Chamber of Commerce. ”
"The slave family knows, and there is one more thing I don't know if I should tell my son." Rou Niang hesitated.
Su Jin laughed and said, "Say, what can't you say, are you secretly in love with a little guy?" Ask the Lord to fulfill you? ”
"Son, you say this, it makes no sense; Slave ...... Don't you understand the mind of the slave family? As a childe, he died as a child's ghost, if you say such a joke again, Rou Niang will die in front of you to show her heart. "Soft and girly tears rolled.
Su Jin hurriedly hugged her and apologized, feeling both moved and embarrassed, he inadvertently regarded her as a woman in later generations, such jokes in later generations are very common and ordinary, but in the Great Song Dynasty, these words are a humiliation to women.
"Good Rou Niang, don't be angry, I just joked casually, who dares to beat my Rou Niang's idea, I directly cut off his head as a night pot."
Rou Niang broke into tears and laughed, and said: "Son, this matter is very strange, about ten days ago, the slave family was helping in the ready-to-wear shop, and a man came out of the door, sneakily said that he wanted to talk to the son, and the slave family told him that the son came to study in Yingtian; The man left without saying a word, and the slave stopped him and asked the reason, but the man only said, 'I will only talk to your son-in-law about this matter, and no one else will say anything.' 'Do you say weird? ”
Su Jin pondered, couldn't figure it out, nodded slightly, and said, "Is it a little strange, have you seen this person later?" ”
Rou Niang stretched out her hand and took a sip of the tea cup on the desk and said: "This time I came to Yingtian, out of my family knows, no one else knows, but under a mountain in Jiangjiagou, the boundary of Huainan Prefecture, was stopped by a few people to get off the mule cart, the slave family thought that they had encountered the bandits who robbed the road in broad daylight, but unexpectedly the leader was the man in the shop that day, the uncle who drove the car stepped forward to theorize, but the man pointed to me by name, and the slave family had to hide the sharp knife in his sleeve and get out of the car to talk to them......"
"What are you carrying a knife for? How many big guys can you beat? Su Jin said.
"Silly boy, the road in the world is not smooth, in case they have bad intentions, I will not be afraid if I have a sharp knife in my hand."
"Do you know martial arts? Can you kill them? Su Jin was even more confused.
"Can't kill them, can't the slave family kill themselves? Once the matter is urgent, the slave family will naturally cut it off by itself, so as not to be tainted by the thieves. ”
Su Jin was startled, his eyes widened and said: "How can you think like this, there are many ways to protect yourself, but you choose the most extreme method, confused!" ”
Rou Niang smiled and said: "Don't talk about this, fortunately, those people have no bad intentions, the man only asked me if I went to Yingtianfu to see the prince, and the slave family answered according to the truth, so the man asked me to bring a word to you......"
"What?" Su Jin faintly felt that things were not simple.
"That human, I want to know the cause of Heiqi's death, and go to the Huainan Bagong Mountain Cottage to find him, his name is Qiu Dabao, and he also said that there is a nickname called 'Diamond Mountain Leopard'." Rou Niang's original words are relayed.
Su Jin was shocked, his mind turned sharply, and he searched his memory all over the place, he didn't know a person who had Qiu Dabao at all, but this person actually said that he knew the cause of Liu Heiqi's death, and knew that he had a great relationship with this matter, it seemed that he must be one of the people who were in Luzhou that day, but he knew himself, and he didn't know him.
"The slave family saw that the man was mysterious, and he was afraid that this matter would disturb the child's mind, the matter in Luzhou had been so long, and the prince thought that he didn't want to mention it, but after thinking about it, this matter might be related to the safety of the son, so he said it." Rou Niang saw Su Jin's solemn face, and her heart was worried.
"Rou Niang, this matter is very important, Lord Bao left a message to me when he was leaving, asking me to carefully investigate the news, collect evidence and report it to him, this matter is not trivial, the Luzhou prefect and the Chamber of Commerce and others have taken more than a dozen lives, I have never told you about this matter, maybe this person has experienced this matter, and I don't know the reason for it."
Rou Niang's face turned white, and her voice became trembling: "More than a dozen...... A dozen lives? ”
Su Jin nodded and said: "Speaking of which, there are seven or eight bandits there, burning my Su Ji granary, including those who killed Qin Dalang, who are also innocent, but a few others have been exterminated, how can they sit idly by and watch such a lawless criminal act." ”
"Son, how can you manage it? Since Lord Zhu and the Chamber of Commerce are so vicious, how can you fight them. Rou Niang clenched Su Jin's arm, as if she was afraid that Su Jin's sense of justice would overflow and she would directly go to a hard fight.
Su Jin patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry, Master Bao is here, it's not my turn to come out in this matter, I'm just assisting from the side." ”
"Then ...... Is the prince going to the Bagong Mountain to find the leopard? That's a den of bandits. ”
"Naturally, I want to go, but not now, on the way back from the academy's vacation, I will visit this diamond leopard by the way to see what he knows? Don't worry, I have the protection of the dynasty and the horses, and I can't help the ordinary dozen or so men. ”
Rou Niang was worried, regretting that she shouldn't have told Su Jin the news, Su Jin comforted her for a long time, and then reluctantly put her mind down.
The two chattered for a long time, and Su Jin felt that he came up again, and hugged Rou Niang on the spring bench.
Xiao Sui'er, who couldn't help it, finally came to eavesdrop, and the small figure under the window stood up straight and bent over for a while, and the silk handkerchief in his hand was about to be crushed, until the two people inside shouted with satisfaction, and the little figure left quietly with soft hands and feet.
In the first bedroom in the west, Huanniang held her cheeks, her face was red, staring at the jumping candle flame, stunned.
