Early in the morning the day after Gu Yan arrived at Pingjiang, the governor of Pingjiang and other officials were waiting at the gate across the bridge, waiting for Gu Yan's summons.
Gu Yan summoned all the officials of Pingjiang Prefecture and inquired about the government affairs and people's situation in detail. He invited all the officials to have a meal at noon. In the afternoon, accompanied by the people in charge, Gu Yan started from the Pingjiang Prefecture Prison and inspected the government affairs of Pingjiang Prefecture in detail.
.
From Pingjiang City, I saw the counties under Pingjiang Prefecture, and then took a formal trip to Linhai Town. Looking around, more than ten days had passed. When I returned to Pingjiang Villa, I heard from Wang Gui that Li Xiucai and his family were already there.
Pingjiang City settled down and had breakfast. Gu Yan, dressed in the usual attire of a rich boy, took Shigun, Wang Gui and others, strolling to the mansion to go to the school.
………………………………
The courtyard house that the Li siblings rent is in Cailian Lane. Coming out of Cailian Lane is a rather quiet street, next to the academy, called Academy Street.
Li Yinzhu held Li Xiaonan's hand tightly and stood at the entrance of Cailian Lane. She looked carefully from the left to the right, then from the right to the left, and let out a sigh of satisfaction.
"Grandma, look! It's so lively and beautiful here! This street is so clean, full of big blue stones! There are so many shops! Grandma, look at that front, it's so long! It looks like silk!"<
/p>
"This street is not very lively. The last time I came here with my eldest sister, the street coming out of the side entrance of Fuxue is really lively. It has to be three or four times as wide as this street. There are two-story buildings on both sides.
There are many three- and four-story buildings, all of which are shops, restaurants, and bookstores. I remember that I seemed to be going that way." Li Xiaonan pulled the third sister forward.
Li Yinzhu was dragged by Li Xiaonan, turning her head to look in both directions as she walked, "Isn't this street lively? How can it be lively? Look, A-nan, these two sides are full of shops, what are they selling?"<
/p>
"That one is a paper-pasting shop, that one is a book copying shop, and that one is a book repair shop. They are all businesses that we cannot do." Li Xiaonan hugged Li Yinzhu's arm and dragged her forward.
"Papering? Shoe-gluing type? There are special shops for people in the city to glue shoes? Huh? You just said that we can't do it? What's your idea, grandma?" Li Yinzhu was dazzled when he looked at it.
It took me to visit an inkstone shop before I realized what I was doing.
"Of course you have to start a business when you move to the city. You can't make much money just by weaving. This is the street!" Li Xiaonan jumped out of Academy Street, looked at the wide and lively street in front of her, and cheered.
Li Yinzhu stared at the busy traffic in front of him with his mouth open.
When they came all the way, Li Xiaonan huddled in the carriage without attracting attention. She stayed in the carriage with her until they arrived at the inn, and then stayed in the house. After renting the house, they entered the house from the big car, and then stayed in the house.
In the house.
This is the first time Li Yinzhu has seen the prosperity of Pingjiang City since he entered Pingjiang City for half a month.
"Ah-nan! I'm a little scared and dizzy." Li Yinzhu was nervous all over and held Li Xiaonan's arm tightly.
"Sister San, please let go! Your arms are scratched!" Li Xiaonan patted Li Yinzhu's hand hard, "Let's stand here for a while and wait until you stop feeling dizzy before we go shopping."
"Let's go shopping, you can go shopping even if you feel dizzy!" Li Yinzhu let go of his hand and immediately grabbed Li Xiaonan's other arm, but not so hard.
This street is wider than the threshing floor of their Xiaoli Village. Such a wide street is paved with large blue stones! Oh my God, how much copper it costs!
That car is so beautiful! Much prettier than the one in the New Year pictures! That man is covered in silk from head to toe! So is that one, and that one, that one...
Oh my god, why are there so many people wearing silk on this street!
Li Yinzhu held Li Xiaonan's arm tightly, her two eyes were not enough to see people and cars.
Li Xiaonan dragged Li Yinzhu and looked at the shops on the street while walking. She stopped from time to time and looked carefully for a while, thinking about which business they could do.
Their capital is small and they cannot withstand the hardships, so they have to find a business with small profits and limited losses.
The businesses on this street are so high.
She was wrong. If she wanted to find a small business with small profits and limited losses, she shouldn't go to such a busy place, she should go to the alleys!
Li Xiaonan raised her hand and patted her forehead.
Before she could escape from the bustle of Lujiazui, when she thought about business, she habitually went straight to the most prosperous and lively places.
Alas, the most prosperous and lively places must be big businesses with high capital and high profits, and it is not easy to get started!
Li Xiaonan's annoyance was interrupted by the smell of crab shell yellow.
About ten steps ahead, there is a small storefront only about three feet wide, with a shiny and clean counter extending out half a foot, with freshly baked crab shells arranged on top.
A clean-cut man with a happy face held a bamboo tong and loudly announced how much the cakes cost. He quickly picked up the crab shell yolks one by one and put them into the mulberry paper bag. The last word was "take it."
Hand it out.
There were about ten people lined up at the door of the cake shop.
"What is that? It smells so good, so fragrant!" Li Yinzhu was also attracted by the fragrance, sniffed it hard, and swallowed hard.
"Crab shell yellow is delicious!" Li Xiaonan drooled.
"Have you eaten it? My eldest sister bought it for you when I came back last time? It must be quite expensive, how much is one copper coin?" Li Yinzhu licked his lips carefully.
"I haven't eaten it before, but I read about it in the book. It's delicious." Li Xiaonan looked up at the rice cake hanging from the eaves.
Crab shell yellow and ten copper coins each.
"Sister San, how many copper coins do you have?" Li Xiaonan asked.
"What you are asking about is how many copper coins are left. The eldest sister has finished counting the copper coins in our house, and the second sister has hid them after counting them. I have never even touched them, but there are still a few left!
Do you have a copper coin? The eldest sister gave it to you?" Li Yinzhu glanced sideways at Li Xiaonan.
"You haven't touched it, and I've never touched it." Li Xiaonan slumped her shoulders and sighed.
A crab shell yolk costs ten copper coins. Even if the eldest sister was here, she would definitely not be willing to buy it.
"Let's stand in front and see what they do. After watching for a while, let's go back and do it ourselves." Li Yinzhu pinched Li Xiaonan's thin arm and lifted it up, signaling her not to be discouraged.
The two squeezed to the other side of the counter. Li Yinzhu put his hands on Li Xiaonan's shoulders, stretched his neck from behind Li Xiaonan and looked into the counter.
Inside the counter, there is a long case against the wall. Two or three waiters stand next to the long case, beating and kneading the soft dough, quickly making crab shell yellow embryos, covered with sesame seeds, and placing them in one plate after another.
Bake.
Gu Yan stood at the door of the shop next to the crab shell yellow, slowly swinging the folding fan, squinting at the salivating Li Xiaonan, frowning at the sight.
Luxiu loves tea, especially the spring tea of that year. He doesn't like these food and drink things. He only tastes them lightly. He has never seen Luxiu become so greedy.
Li Yinzhu and Li Xiaonan huddled together, craning their necks to stare at the waiters as they made crab shell roe. Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan for half a quarter of an hour, snorted vaguely, and stepped forward.
