Miss Zhai Si whispered the process of Miss Jiang San's search for her.
He didn't hide what he deliberately concealed in the first place.
"It's me who is shallow." She apologized, "I shouldn't dislike your identity."
Qixing smiled: "This is not shallow, nor do you dislike me, you just don't understand. This is human nature."
Miss Zhai Si also smiled and waved her fan: "I know now, this fan will become my treasure from now on."
While talking about comforting Huo Lian.
"Don't be afraid. This has nothing to do with you. Du Cha Si is like this. He has spies everywhere and knows everything. There is a private joke that they even know when the family dog will give birth to puppies."
Qixing seemed to be amused by these words.
Miss Zhai Si hurriedly signaled her not to laugh: "Maybe someone is watching her now."
Qixing pursed his lips and stopped smiling.
"Anyway, don't be afraid." Miss Zhai Si said again.
Qixing nodded: "I'm not afraid."
It seemed that she was indeed not afraid. Miss Zhai Si took a look at the girl and realized that she was an embroiderer after all, neither an official nor a noble.
"Just go about your business in peace, Du Cha Si has nothing to do with you." She whispered. The other companions also got in the car and were waiting. She said no more, said goodbye and left.
Qixing stood in front of the door and watched the ladies' carriages go away.
Qing Zhi was a little nervous behind her. She had listened to some of what Miss Zhai Si just said.
Miss Zhai Si doesn’t know that Linglongfang is not really just doing business safely...
Ducha Si had already dealt with the young lady earlier, and the relationship was still very close.
"Miss, are you okay?" she asked in a low voice, looking around quietly.
Qixing smiled: "It's okay." Without even looking around, he turned around and went in.
…
…
Early in the morning, the streets were crowded with cars, horses and people. The shopkeepers who had not yet opened the shop knew without looking that it must be the bustle of Linglongfang opposite.
When the door panel was removed, we saw carriages and horses parked in front of Linglongfang, and several people came down, all speaking with foreign accents.
However, although there were many people, Linglongfang had a sign of closure.
"What? You're losing money so much that you stop doing it?" A hawker carrying a basket asked in surprise.
The shop assistant here sighed: "What are you talking about so early in the morning? They are expanding the workshop." He raised his chin and said, "These are the manpower sent from Xucheng to build the workshop. The next door has been empty for a long time.
The house is also rented.”
The hawker was even more surprised: "You can still make money to expand your workshop?"
That business was done at a high quality and low price, but no matter how you looked at it, you were going to lose money.
The shop assistant next to him sighed again: "You don't want others to be well? If Linglongfang's business is good, what harm will it do to you?"
There's really no harm in that. Linglongfang's business is good and it brings in a lot of people. The business on the whole street is also good. Even he, the steamed cake seller, is making more than before.
"No, no." The hawker smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid that its business will not be good. I worry about it. I know that business is good and I can keep it open."
He was busy changing the topic, and when he saw another person getting out of the car, sitting in a wheelchair, he couldn't help but let out an ooh.
"This boss has no manpower? Why did he send a cripple?"
The lame man's ears were very pointed. He looked over with a swipe, then he shook the armrest with both hands and stood up.
The shop assistant and the waiter widened their eyes and let out a haha.
Then he took the lame man and rocked the wheelbarrow, and it rolled up the steps. Although the steps and thresholds had been laid with wooden boards in advance, it was still shocking.
"What a strange car! Never seen one before."
"It's amazing! It can actually make a paralyzed person stand and walk!"
Listening to the discussion behind them, Mr. Wei snorted: "People from the capital who have never seen the world!"
Shopkeeper Lu shook his head: "You are showing off to a passerby."
"It's not that I want to show off." Wei Dongjia said, "Who makes us attract attention?"
Shopkeeper Lu didn't bother to argue with him, Qing Zhi had already greeted him with a smile.
"Mr. Wei, Shopkeeper Lu, you are here."
Shopkeeper Lu was also smiling: "Miss Xiaoqing, it's been a long time since we last seen you."
Linglong Square is brightly lit at night, and it is connected to the courtyard next door. Several craftsmen are cleaning up the workshop, which is very lively, and Qixing is no longer the only one sitting alone in the room.
Qing Pheasant and Aunt Guo served the meals one after another.
"Taste the flavor of the capital." Qing Pheasant said with a smile.
Shopkeeper Lu reached out to pick up the vegetables, tasted them, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad, it's really delicious."
Qing Pheasant asked: "Shopkeeper Lu, are you guys going to stay and not leave?"
Shopkeeper Lu nodded: "I'm not leaving, after all..." He glanced at Mr. Wei's family and joked, "Those who want to be elders must of course stay with the boss."
The Wei Dong family twisted their beards arrogantly.
Qing Pheasant laughed, and Qixing also smiled slightly.
"Our business is getting bigger and bigger," Qing Zhi said.
"Yes." Shopkeeper Lu nodded, "It will be bigger and better."
Wei Dongjia looked at Qixing and said, "We already have an idea of what you want us to do."
Qing Pheasant put down the wine bottle and left with Aunt Guo. After all, Miss Guo’s business was an extraordinary one.
"Aunt Guo." She stood in the corridor and said loudly, "Send some refreshments to the workshop. Everyone is working hard."
Aunt Guo shouted yes.
The aroma of tea and rice and the chatter and laughter of craftsmen made the night more noisy.
…
…
"The people from the West Hall are here?"
The rich man's room was as quiet as ever, but it was not isolated from the world.
"Yes, it is to expand the workshop." Zhike said, and smiled again, "This lady is still capable. In a short period of time, she has become a popular business, making money or not. Now that she is popular, it is reasonable to be able to
Manpower arrangements have been made."
Rich Man Gao smiled: "You must be capable, Elder Xie's disciple..."
And the blood of Luo Gong.
There is no way he is a mediocre person.
"Speaking of Elder Xie." Zhike thought of something, "A young man stopped outside the capital. He is from Beitang and claims to be the current master of Beitang."
The reason why it is called self-proclaimed is because the previous elder hall master either died in Jin or died in the hands of the government. The old people dispersed, and the Momen was leaderless. There was no leader and no new hall master was elected.
To say that he is the master of the hall can only be said to be a self-proclaimed person.
Nowadays, there are many manpower outside the capital and the security is tight. Of course, the instructions conveyed are to protect the leader.
So this man who claimed to be the leader of Beitang was stopped when he tried to sneak into the capital.
"He said he wanted to see the leader." Zhike said.
The rich man Gao said calmly: "Tell him that the master is busy with important matters now, and the court officials are keeping a close eye on him. For the sake of safety, don't disturb him. We will talk about it after a while."
Most people were stopped like this, but there was really no way to stop the Linglongfang business banner going over the west hall.
It doesn't matter whether you are old or disabled in Xitang, just come and come.
Not so in Beitang.
After all, Qixing's mother is a disciple of Beitang, and Beitang can be said to be her mother's family.
Beitang was originally a group of people who were sent to the border as coolies. After becoming Mo disciples, they were still responsible for guarding the border, just like the Bei Navy set up by the imperial court.
Although they have no money or power, these people have inherited and mastered the offensive and defensive skills of the sages. Once a battle occurs, the Nanmo knights who are best at martial arts may not be their opponents.
Of course, that was before. Beitang was hit hard and almost everyone died in Jin. There were not many people left.
However, it is safest to have less contact.
Zhike understood Gao Caizhan's concerns and responded to leave. Gao Caizheng thought of something and called him back.
"What does that person want from the leader?" he asked.
The identity of Qixing has been revealed to the public. Xitang Qixing has not said who his mother is. Did Beitang recognize her?
How much does Beitang know about what happened back then?
If there is trouble, get rid of the trouble.
Zhike oh said: "He said that he would like to ask someone to build the Great Wall in the north."
The Great Wall of the North?
"Is it broken?" asked Rich Man Gao, sitting up straight, "Great."
