Tian Minyan thought for a long time on the carriage but still couldn't figure out what Qi Shiqi's hint was, to go further? She pursed her lips. If it was about getting rich, then needless to say, she would definitely go further. She
I have already planned a path for myself, and I will move forward bravely despite all obstacles.
However, she had a vague feeling that Qi Shiqi meant something much more than that, but he didn't say what it was, and it was hard for her to ask.
"Miss Tian, we're here." The driver said respectfully outside.
Tian Minyan shook off the thoughts in her mind, got out of the carriage, and saw a very luxurious carriage parked in front of her house. Whose family does this belong to?
Before he entered the door, he saw Jixiang looking at the door. When he saw her figure, he hurriedly ran forward and said: "My good girl, you are back. The Lord of Hui'an County has been waiting for you for a long time."
Tian Minyan was stunned, the head of Hui'an County is here? Didn't he agree to let her go to some flower viewing party? Why did it happen at the right time?
She walked quickly to the inner house, and when she came to the main courtyard, she saw a room full of people, Luo and the others were all there, Jiang was sitting at the top, but he was very cramped and had nowhere to put his hands and feet, and the head of Hui'an County was sitting at the bottom left.
, the two sisters Huang Wenyuan sat next to her and led her to talk, but Hui'an had a little impatience on his face.
"County Lord, why are you here?" Tian Minyan stepped forward with a smile, made a blessing ceremony, and asked with a smile.
Seeing Tian Minyan, Hui'an County Lord was obviously relieved, stood up, took her hand and said: "You little heartless little thing, I invited you, but you didn't come, so I had to come to find you, but you came again
not at home."
"It's not mine. I forgot to read the almanac when I went out. I didn't know that the county mistress would be visiting today. Otherwise, I wouldn't go out at all. It's a serious matter that the sky is falling." Tian Minyan pretended to be annoyed and said:
"Now that I've had to wait for the county mistress to do this, it's really my fault and I deserve a beating." As he said this, he turned his hand into a palm and was about to hit himself in the face.
Hui An chuckled after hearing this, and hurriedly took her hand and said, "You girl is more interesting to talk about." She was really impatient to wait. These two people said they were cousin Tian Minyan, and they were noisy like sparrows.
The fierce flattery made her impatient. As soon as the tea was finished, she wanted to leave. Fortunately, this girl came back.
As soon as the two sisters Huang Wenyuan heard what the county lord said, they felt a little uncomfortable, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces. They tried to please the county lord lightly in every possible way. When Tian Minyan said this, she laughed so hard that her eyes were bent.
.
Comparing people with each other makes people angry!
"You girls, go and talk in the yard. It's a bit stuffy here, and you don't feel comfortable with adults here. I'll prepare some snacks." Luo Shi felt slightly relieved when she saw that Tian Minyan and the head of Hui'an County were getting along comfortably and casually.
, suggested with a smile.
When people came to report that the Lord of Hui'an County had come to visit, she was really shocked. Although she recognized the more noble prince, she had never seen the County Lord after all, and Tian Minyan was not here. She was the hostess, and she could not entertain her like this.
It was careless, so I had to bite the bullet.
Accompanying her respectfully, she racked her brains but couldn't come up with anything to talk about, and she broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, Tian Minyan also came back.
"Then I'll trouble Mrs. Tian." Hui'an said with a smile and bent his knees.
"No trouble, no trouble." Luo Che waved his hands repeatedly, somewhat flattered.
"Come on, let's go to your room to talk." Hui An said, holding Tian Minyan's hand.
"Sister Yan, let's talk to the county leader together, and we can also have some fun." Huang Wenyuan immediately looked at Tian Minyan and said.
Tian Minyan glanced at Hui'an's face and saw that she was a little impatient and disgusted, so she smiled and said: "Cousin Wenyuan, I haven't seen the county mistress for a long time, and I have something to whisper, I'm afraid..."
Huang Wenyuan's smile froze and she said awkwardly: "That's it, then we won't disturb you."
"Come on, take me to your boudoir quickly. I finally caught you little girl, so you have to talk to me properly." Seeing that Huang Wenyuan was so understanding, Hui An nodded with satisfaction and couldn't wait to pull Tian Minyan away.
Tian Minyan was a little helpless, but she had no choice but to take her to her boudoir obediently.
"This shabby house is not as good as the County Lady's Qiongtai Yuyu. I hope the County Lord will forgive me." Tian Minyan joked as she invited the County Lord Hui'an into her boudoir with a smile.
Hui'an glared at her, smiled and tried to pinch her mouth, and said angrily: "I asked you to make fun of me."
Tian Minyan giggled and begged for mercy, and invited her to sit on the couch. She then took the tea handed over by the girl and served it to her personally. She also sat down with a cup of tea and asked: "Why is the county master here? I
Remember the flower viewing party is tomorrow, right?"
"I was bored at home, so I went out for a walk. I thought your home was nearby, so I came over to talk to you. Who knew you weren't there? It was because I didn't know the etiquette, so I came here so recklessly. I deserved to wait for you.
"The Lord of Hui'an County took a sip of tea and laughed softly.
"It doesn't matter, we villagers don't follow the etiquette, the county master can come anytime." Tian Minyan said: "It's no coincidence, I was going out with my mother and the others today, but something suddenly happened and I was delayed.
"
"I heard from Mrs. Tian what kind of business you are going to be busy with. I really admire you for being so smart at a young age. Unlike me, who sleeps after eating. As my father said, it is no different from raising pigs.
Now, I have nothing to do and life is boring." Hui'an sighed.
"The County Lord is also joking. The County Lord has a rich body, a noble body, and a top-notch family. Why does it need to travel like us? How many people envy the County Lord."
"A daughter from a famous family also has her own rules. You don't know the hardships involved in this restriction and that restriction. Compared with being locked up in a room and being a prostitute, reciting poems and painting, I really envy you for being so busy with everything and having something to rely on.
"
Tian Minyan lowered her head and smiled, refilled her tea, and said, "This is everyone's destiny."
"Maybe. Hey, don't tell me, your first floor is really making a lot of money every day now. I think it almost compares to Beiyuan. Now you have to make a reservation in advance to book a banquet on the first floor.
It makes my eyes water, and I wish I could open a restaurant."
"As soon as the county owner's restaurant opens, my seat on the first floor will no longer be available." Tian Minyan laughed.
"Go ahead and laugh at me too."
Tian Minyan pursed her lips and smiled. An idea flashed in her mind, and she asked tentatively: "The county owner wants to do business?"
"In other words, you also know my identity. My brothers don't necessarily let me show up outside. I also have a shop at home, which is controlled by the stewards. It's none of my business." The head of Hui'an County sighed.
.
This is the lack of freedom and rules of a famous daughter. A real lady will not show her face easily, let alone lower her status to do business. Especially for a noble status like Hui'an, even if her family has a shop and business,
It's all left to the stewards.
"I have an idea. It happens that I also have a best friend who married into the Xu family. She is Xu Zhizhou's eldest daughter-in-law. Her maiden name is Wen Wen. She came to see me yesterday and she said that this woman will have a richer dowry.
, the more her husband's family looked at her, and she felt confident, so she thought about getting some money to start a small business and make some money." Tian Minyan looked at her, and seeing that she was listening carefully, she said: "I had already
I was thinking about opening a jewelry shop, but I had no capital. Since she was so interested, I thought of joining together. If the county owner is interested, the three of us could share the money and open one too?"
"Hey, you now have a restaurant and a MSG shop, and the kitchen and toilet factory is also yours. They are all profitable businesses. What else is there? Yes, I heard that they are also running a weaving workshop, right?
How much business do you want to do?" The head of Hui'an County raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you really want to become a merchant?"
"I won't be registered as a merchant. I have brothers at home who are taking the imperial examinations. I'm just saving some money for food." Tian Minyan smiled and shook her head and said: "I don't own the jewelry shop at home. If you are willing, let's do it as a best friend's business.
Have fun."
Hui'an pursed his lips and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult for jewelry shops. There are big names. Zhenbaozhai is famous. Now everyone is looking forward to Zhenbaozhai's new designs and is proud to wear Zhenbaozhai's jewelry.
, the state capital also has a Baibao Pavilion and so on, can we do it in a small way?"
Tian Minyan chuckled and said, "We can't compete with those old shops in terms of popularity, but we may not be able to compete with them in terms of tricks." She thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute."
Hui An was a little confused and watched as she ran to a desk-like desk to get some paper, then returned to the table where they were sitting with a charcoal pencil.
But when Tian Minyan closed her eyes slightly, thought for a while, pursed her lips and started drawing on the white paper with the charcoal pencil, Hui An looked at it strangely. Her painting method was very new, something she had never seen before, but
As she moved, the drawings on the paper became clearer.
After a while, Tian Minyan handed her the design drawing and said with a smile: "The county master is used to seeing good things. Please comment. How about making this design into jewelry?"
When Hui'an County Lord took the design from Tian Minyan's hand and looked at it, his mouth opened wide in shock: "This, this is?"
From the time she watched Tian Minyan pick up paper and pen, to start writing, and then to put away the pen, how long did it take for her to draw a bracelet design? The picture is simple and easy to understand, but the brushwork is unique, but it is very lifelike, the most rare thing
The bracelet pattern is very novel and elegant, not inferior to those of those century-old stores.
"How did you come up with this?" Hui'an County Lord looked at her with interest, then looked at the picture, frowned and said, "This looks a bit familiar."
"It's like the one from Zhenbaozhai, right?" Tian Minyan smiled slyly and said, "I seem to have forgotten to tell you that I drew all the pictures of Zhenbaozhai before. Do you know how much money I sold for the first picture?
?Three taels."
With these three taels of silver, she got the first pot of gold in her life and started her career. Tian Minyan thought of her actions last year. Now, more than a year later, she has made some achievements.
"How many things are you hiding in your brain?" After hearing her talk about selling pattern pictures, Hui'an took a long time to squeeze out a sentence.
"Is the county owner interested in this jewelry shop? We have ready-made jewelry designers who are as good as others." Tian Minyan smiled proudly.
