Chapter 165 A Good Idea

Shi'an returned to Jiuquli and saw two people standing in front of his house. When he got closer, he saw Congtou and a young apprentice hanging a plaque on the door.

Qingyu and Hongtao stood in the alley, looking at whether the door plaque was crooked or off.

Hearing the footsteps, Qingyu turned around and called out "brother" with a smile. Onion, who was hanging the door plaque, also turned around, said hello with a smile, and then turned to continue working with his little apprentice.

Hongtao turned her head and saw Shi'an carrying a cloth bag on his back. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I brought back something good."

Qingyu also walked over. Hong Tao pulled open the bag and saw a bunch of cute little yellow things. He was so surprised that he grabbed one and said, "Is this the bookkeeper who is doing the rewards?"

Shi'an smiled slightly: "I would like to call it fortune-telling income."

He turned over the peach of hearts and found out a hosta and a book of posts. He took them out with both hands and asked, "What is this?"

"The hairpin was given by the state pastoral office. The post states the fortune-telling schedule for this year."

Qingyu took the post and opened it to see that it was all arranged from June to February next year, but only one name was written on each month.

Hongtao leaned over and took a look, full of doubts: "You only count one person per month?"

Shi'an smiled and nodded: "One person is enough." No matter how many there are, it's not rare.

Hong Tao looked at the gold in her hand again, "If you count one person, you get one gold?"

"There are twenty gold here. I think half of it was given by Cao Cao, and the other half was given by another person. Counting one person, it should be ten gold." Qingyu said.

Shi'an nodded again: "Not bad."

Hong Tao opened her mouth with joy, ten gold, one hundred taels, and this post has been scheduled until February next year. Doesn't this mean that they will still have a monthly income of one hundred taels in the future.

"Brother, you, you, you... you still have the same style as expected." Hong Tao said "you" for a long time and praised.

Onion, who heard these words, had a look of surprise and envy. His little apprentice was obviously still a little confused, as if he thought he had heard wrong, and looked at Onion. But Onion smiled, comforting himself in his heart that everyone has his own destiny.

, he doesn’t care about others, he just has to do his own thing.

"It's hung up, let's take a look." Onion jumped off the stool, stood a little further away, and nodded with satisfaction at his workmanship.

Qingyu, Shi'an and Hongtao also stood a little further away. Qingyu looked at the seven big characters with dragons and phoenixes, her face felt a little hot, and she nodded casually, "Very good."

Onion laughed and sighed, "This is the widest door plaque I have ever made."

Shi'an looked at Qingyu with a smile, "This is a really good name, and it won our hearts."

"Hey, young master and ladies, you are busy today."

While they were admiring the door plaque, a sound came from the entrance of the alley. Several people turned to look, but it was Qian Laoer who walked into the alley with a well-dressed couple.

Shi'an cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Hang up a plaque on the door."

Qian Laoer brought his guests to the door, stared at the door plaque for a few times, and praised with a smile: "Good words, good words. Qingfeng Shili Tao Yaju, the name is also unique." It is indeed the home of the pavilion master.

Take the usual path.

Hong Tao asked curiously: "Are you taking them to see the house? Are you not afraid of being haunted?"

Qian Laoer gave a stiff laugh, "The feng shui environment here is not bad, and the price is not expensive. As for the ghost, it is just a rumor."

Then he turned to the two guests and said, "This is the house of the owner of Shange Pavilion, which has been very popular recently. I bought the house from him."

The couple were a little surprised. Rumors about the Shange Pavilion Master had been spreading in the inner city recently, and they had heard about it. Thinking that the Shange Pavilion Master lived here, the couple had no doubts about the previous hauntings.

A lot lighter.

Qian Laoer seemed to have something to say when he saw the red peach, and hurriedly said to the two guests: "Let's go in and look at the house. The house is still cheap now, eight taels per month, and it will definitely increase to thirteen or four taels in a while."

, this is a rare opportunity.”

After all, the couple had only heard rumors, but what they actually saw was that the alley was full of life, with green trees and blooming branches, which was really pleasant.

What's more, there were several children in front of him, and everything seemed so ordinary, so he followed Qian Laoer into a house expectantly.

Hongtao thought for a while and said to Qingyu and Shi'an: "I'll go take a look. You go back first."

"Sister." Qingyu called her and made a silent gesture.

"I know, I know." Hongtao smiled, twitching the corners of her mouth, and followed Qian Laoer.

Qingyu shook her head helplessly, paid the wages with Congtou, and said to Congtou: "We still have something we need you to do, but... let's sit in the room and chat. You can see it first before talking."

Onion's face was overjoyed, he said hello quickly, put his tools on his back, and followed Qingyu and Shi'an into the courtyard with his little apprentice.

The group of people came to the main room, Shi'an poured water for Congtou and his little apprentice, while Qingyu went into the room, and soon came out with two drawings.

"I drew it when I had nothing to do in the morning." Qingyu said to Shi'an. Then he placed the drawing in front of Congtou and asked, "Can you do this?"

Onion immediately studied the drawings carefully, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. After a while, he opened his mouth, embarrassed and unsure, "I haven't done it before, so I'm not sure if I..."

"It doesn't matter. The wages are easy to talk about, and we need it urgently. It will be used at the King Guan meeting next month. My idea is that you might as well go back to your master and ask him to see if you, master and apprentice, can do it together."

Onion was reminded and immediately laughed, "The master is here, I should be able to give it a try. Okay, I'll go find my master now." After saying that, he carefully folded the drawings and put them into his chest pocket.

"Also, these thirty taels are the deposit." Qingyu took out the thirty taels of silver that she had prepared in advance and handed it to Onion.

Onion was startled, "Miss... Miss, I..." He really didn't know what to say. Ever since he set up his own business, the Qingyu family had given him a lot of business. He knew that his craftsmanship was not as good as heaven's.

, but they were willing to give him a chance and trust him, which really moved him.

"You deserve this, and you only have one month. You must have other work on hand, but I was a little too demanding." Qingyu said with relief.

"No, Miss, you're welcome." Onion was no longer shy, carefully put the money into his pocket, and then said seriously: "I will go find my master right now. Don't worry, miss, I will ask my apprentice to send you a message as soon as there is a result.

.”

After sending Congtou and his young apprentice out, Qingyu said to Shi'an: "I have been thinking about how to not lose face at the Guanwang Conference these two days.

Fortunately, the things we know are relatively new in this world, so I came up with this idea. Considering that I don’t have much time, I didn’t have time to discuss it with you. I’ll talk to Senior Sister when she comes back in the evening.”

Shi'an affirmed: "Your ideas are always right. I think senior sister is also waiting for you to make up your mind."

Qingyu smiled, took out the account book, recorded all the recent income and expenses, and then put Shi'an's twenty taels of gold into Xuannv Hall.

As soon as he finished all this, Hong Tao came back, and he was delighted when he entered the door: "Qian Laoer said that our house has now risen to two hundred and seventy taels, and it will rise to more than three hundred taels in a while. I'm afraid it won't happen."

It will return to 400 taels in two months. Junior sister, head, we have made a lot of money this time."

Qingyu smiled and shook her head, "Everything requires a balance, and nothing can be one-sided."

Hongtao picked her chin and asked Shi'an: "Then are you still going to set up a stall? Is it really only once a month?"

"Things are rare and valuable. Once this rule has been established, it cannot be broken." Shi'an looked at Hong Tao and said: "If you have nothing to do, you can also go and sit at my stall."
