Chapter 223: Ni Er invites you to meet Jia Yun for the first time
The next morning, Jia Lan and Wu Gui walked out of Ningrong Street to a house outside Zhaowu Gate in the outer city of Shenjing.
There is a plaque "Ni's Trading Company" hanging on the main entrance of the courtyard.
This is a two-in-one courtyard. The front yard is very wide, enough to accommodate many people. The back yard is relatively narrow, but not too small. To buy such a yard in a place like Shenjing where land is at a premium, Ni Er
It is also worthy of the name of a local snake.
Entering the inner courtyard, Jia Lan saw Ni Er who was giving orders to his men.
"Brother Ni, I originally planned to visit you a few days ago..."
Jia Lan cupped his hands, and while chatting with Ni Er, he looked around the yard.
"It seems business is good?"
In the front yard, a team of horses was ready to go, with loads of goods on their backs.
Ni Er was very happy to see Jia Lan and quickly invited Jia Lan to sit down and drink tea.
"Thanks to you, I took several trips to Liaodong and the profits were good."
"...Where is the north?"
"It's a bit of a loss, but overall it's fine."
Jia Lan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Is he okay?"
"Fifteen of them died and five were seriously injured." Ni San's eyebrows felt heavy.
More people died than were seriously injured. You can imagine how fierce the battle was.
"Meet Meng Yuan's cavalry?" Jia Lan asked in surprise.
Ni San's horse business is still in the start-up stage, and it is following a relatively stable business route. It is said that it will not enter the Mongolian Yuan's sphere of influence at all.
"It's not Meng Yuan, it's the horse bandits."
"Horse bandit?" Jia Lan's eyes darkened slightly.
"Have you found out who is behind it?"
The horse bandits on this grassland are said to be horse bandits, but their origins are complicated. There are all kinds of people, and there are even frontier soldiers pretending to be them.
Ni Er shook his head and looked slightly relaxed: "It's probably not someone who deliberately targeted us. After that, we walked three more times without running into him. It was probably an accident."
"Speaking of which..." Ni Er changed the subject, "I came specifically to find you a few days ago. Actually, someone asked me for help and asked me to introduce him."
When Jia Lan heard this, he couldn't help but show a bit of surprise on his face.
There are also people who know the relationship between Ni Er and themselves, but these people actually don’t need to know themselves through Ni Er.
For example, Xiao Tianfang, the king of Zhongyi County.
Most people think that Ni Er is connected to the Qin family of the Ministry of Industry.
Even though Qin Ye is just an old and unpopular Ministry of Industry official, judging from his official position alone, he is already among the top 10% of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
If you don't do this kind of business, someone else will do it. No one would be willing to offend a fifth-grade doctor for no reason.
"Who can actually talk to you, Brother Ni?" Jia Lan asked with great interest. He knew that Ni Er was a very measured person, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to talk to him.
Ni Erdao: "This person actually has something to do with you, Langeer."
Jia Lan was about to ask, but he heard footsteps behind him, so he looked back.
But I saw a tall, slender man walking in.
His temperament is very different from that of the clerks in Ni Erma's shop. He has a long face and looks elegant and delicate. However, his eyebrows are colorful, as deep as pure wood, as deep as mountains and swamps, and he looks very stable.
When the visitor saw Jia Lan, he quickly pressed his hand and respectfully grabbed him to greet him.
"Are you...Brother Yun?"
Jia Yun responded, with a bit of surprise on her face.
He is from the Jia clan, and according to Li Wan, he is the son of the fifth sister-in-law under the West Corridor.
But the Jia clan is too big. In terms of closeness, Jia Yun, who is already the fifth generation, is not close to the two families in the direct lineage. But after all, he lives under the west corridor and has some contact with Rongguo Mansion on weekdays, which is not considered a close relationship.
Those relatives who only have the surname Jia but are very distant.
But despite this, Jia Yun and Rong Guofu are still far apart.
The servants in the mansion only knew about the existence of such a "Master Yun".
That's why Jia Yun was surprised and happy when Jia Lan called out her name accurately.
Jia Lan stood up to greet Jia Yun, but the other party hurriedly said he didn't dare. After a while of politeness, they each sat down. Jia Lan glanced at Ni Er and asked with a smile: "Brother Yun, what do you want from me?"
Jia Yun was startled. He didn't expect that Jia Lan didn't mince words when speaking, and asked him straightforwardly. He was a little speechless for a moment, and seemed to be confused by Jia Lan's words, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing Jia Yun's wild thoughts, Jia Lan laughed: "Brother Yun, don't be surprised. I have never liked those red tapes. The fact that Brother Ni can come forward in person is enough to prove his recognition of you. I can trust Brother Ni. Now everyone
Sit together and just say whatever you have to say."
When Jia Yun heard this, she was startled again. Her eyes subconsciously glanced at Ni Er, who looked proud, and a hint of envy flashed in her eyes.
Looking at the handsome Jia Yun in front of him, who had nothing to do with "Blue Eyes", Jia Lan couldn't help but smile. In fact, he probably guessed Jia Yun's purpose.
Sure enough, after a short period of astonishment, Jia Yun immediately made up her mind: "Lang Geer, I shamelessly came to you this time because I wanted to find something to do with you."
Ni Er also spoke at the side: "Brother Lan, Mr. Yun has been my neighbor for many years. He is a rare person. People all over the street are afraid of me, the landlord, but he is the only one who treats me with a normal heart."
..."
Hearing Ni Er constantly saying good things for her, Jia Yun couldn't help but cast a grateful look at him.
"I naturally believe in Brother Ni's character." Jia Lan turned to Jia Yun, "But I don't know what Brother Yun wants to do?"
Jia Lan's tone was friendly, but there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes when he looked at Jia Yun.
He will not doubt Jia Yun's character, but he will not blindly believe in his abilities.
At this time, Jia Lan slowly unfolded his spiritual sense and was watching Jia Yun's next every move.
Feeling the gradually stagnant atmosphere, Jia Yun couldn't help but shudder in her heart, and at the same time felt a little grateful to Ni Er again.
Ni Er reminded him repeatedly before that Jia Lan must not be underestimated due to his age.
Even if no one reminds her, Jia Yun will not underestimate Jia Lan.
Eleven-year-old Jieyuan is number one in the country.
Who dares to look down upon it?
But at this time, facing Jia Lan's deep gaze, Jia Yun almost couldn't bear it.
The feeling that she had been completely seen through made Jia Yun immediately restrain all the chaotic thoughts in her heart and answered honestly.
I learned that Jia Yun not only farmed and helped people settle accounts, but even once carried goods to sell on the streets.
Seeing that he was wearing a robe that had been starched many times and was not new, but was still meticulously dressed, Jia Lan couldn't help but nodded.
Jia Yun is undoubtedly a generalist in business, talented and willing to work hard, and is also familiar with the prices of many commodities on the market.
"Brother Yun, let me ask you this. With your talent, it shouldn't be difficult to earn a family fortune, let alone wealth."
After listening to Jia Lan's comments, Jia Yun showed a bit of helplessness on her face.
