Shang Jun turned to look at Murong Shuqing, his long jet black hair fluttered in the night wind, his face was always soft and light smile, but he was wearing only an indigo long gown. Although he was in the warm south, it was early winter. The night wind is still cold. Shang Jun frowned slightly and said, "Winter is coming, and I don't know how to add clothes when I come out. Let's go in and talk about it."
The two entered the bamboo house, and it was much warmer inside. A pot of flaming charcoal was placed by the window. Even if there was a cold wind blowing in, it would not look cold. Obviously, Shu Qing could not take care of herself, but the people around her took care of her. well done.
After pouring a cup of hot tea for Shang Jun, Shu Qing asked, "Why are you free to see me? Did something happen?"
"It's okay." Holding the tea in his hand, Shang Jun smiled, "I went to the sea area, and I came to see you after passing through Huadu on the return trip."
Standing beside Shang Jun, leaning against the window lattice behind him like him, Shu Qing asked, "Sea area?" She has only been here for more than two years. She has only heard of Cang Yue and Yan Rui, but she doesn't know that there are sea areas. such a place.
Although there is a charcoal fire, the night wind is not cold, but Shu Qing's thin Tsing Yi is still blown to the ground. He is used to staying in Linfengguan and is not afraid of the cold, can Shu Qing stand it? Taking Shu Qing to the inner room, Shang Jun explained: "The sea is at the end of the East China Sea, and few people know how to get in and out, so there is little contact with the inland. I went to see it this time, it is very rich and rare. There are also many treasures, and I want to trade with them frequently.”
After entering the inner room and looking around, Shang Jun realized that there was nothing else in Shu Qing's room except a large bed, a reclining chair, and a half-faced bookcase. Let Shu Qing sit down on the reclining chair, and Shang Jun simply sat on the ground beside her, not caring about his snow-like white clothes. He continued: "The sea area is an island country. You can't grow good tea or produce fine cotton. The people there like these two things very much. So, I want to buy tea and silk cotton with you for a long time. How about?"
Murong Shuqing burst into laughter. Although she did not possess martial arts, her body was not that weak. Shang Jun is attentive and thoughtful, and Shu Qing sees it in his eyes. He is always thinking of others, but he always forgets how to take care of his own woman. Who can not feel distressed? Taking Shang Jun's hand and letting him sit side by side with him, Shu Qing replied with a smile: "Of course, I'm planning to expand the tea garden, sell the tea in grades, and leave some good ones for you."
"Grading?" Shang Jun looked at the tea in his hand inexplicably.
Murong Shuqing nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, I found that there are only new teas and old teas, and the variety is far from enough. The same variety of tea should also be graded according to the land, sunlight, rain, and picking time. Even a tea plant can be subdivided into tea buds and tea embryos, and I want to sell the tea at the price of gold."
Let the tea sell for the price of gold? Shang Jun raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled with interest: "This idea is interesting."
"Things are rare and precious. There is never a shortage of rich people in the world. I just borrowed the vanity of human nature." good tea. Those people don't know how to appreciate and taste tea at all, what they drink is nothing but vanity.
Good personal vanity, Shang Jun shook his head and sighed: "You still know how to do business."
Half-relying on Shang Jun, the two were back to back, Shu Qing teased: "You are not bad, I heard that whoever wants to deliver goods to Cangyue or Long Canyon must find Misty Mountain Villa, you are big. Famous." He took down the golden passage of Dragon Canyon, which was worth much more than her tea.
Shang Jun nudged Shu Qing with his back, and said with a wry smile, "You are here to entertain me again."
The two laughed, and a piece of jade pendant that was different from Shang Jun's waist clattered down the reclining chair. Shu Qing bent down to pick it up, the moonlight outside the window shone on the jade pendant in her hand through the window lattice, the lustrous dark green brilliance made Shu Qing whisper, "This is?"
Shang Jun smiled and replied, "Blue jade pendant ring." When he saw it for the first time, he had a feeling of heart palpitations, as if he had a great fate with it. Upon closer inspection, I found that the engraving on the sapphire was Hanli, my mother's favorite flower. Maybe he really has a relationship with it.
Shu Qing caressed the jade body gently, delicate and moist, and the round carvings make it look full of patterns. The most rare thing is that the sculptor's understanding and love of sapphire are all reflected in this small jade face. The emeralds on a natural texture correspond to a bud of Hanliu, which is delicate and beautiful. The jade color of splashing ink and the ultimate carving work are really a rare boutique.
"Do you like it?" Seeing that Murong Shuqing couldn't put it down, Shang Jun laughed softly, "I'll send it to you." Hanli, also known as He, is elegant and noble, and is a perfect match for Shu Qing. If she really likes it, why not send her off? .
However, Shu Qing shook his head gently, handed the jade pendant back to Shang Jun, and said with a light smile, "A gentleman does not take people's favor." I have known him for more than two years. Since you can carry it with you, you should love it very much.
Shang Jun put the jade pendant in Shu Qing's palm, clenched it slowly, and replied cheerfully: "A gentleman has the beauty of an adult." Giving a good thing to a good friend should be a beautiful thing, maybe Shu Qing is more suitable for this piece than him. Sapphire Hanli.
After pushing and shoving the jade pendant for a while, the two suddenly looked at each other and laughed, what are they doing, a gentleman, when did they follow the way of a gentleman? In life, everything is just at will. Shu Qing held the jade pendant, and finally replied calmly: "Mr. Shang, I accept this jade pendant, thank you."
Shang Jun shook his head and replied: "If you like it. It was found by chance in the sea area. I also selected some fine products and they will send them over tomorrow. I am in Linfengguan, and I just want to do exchange and trade, and it is not convenient to open a store to sell it. , Those ancient jade treasures always have to be resold, it is better to sell them to the Murong family, you can sell them, and the price will naturally be set by you."
Murong Shuqing's eyes lit up, this idea is not bad, the Murong family's original silk cloth business is really good, but there is no way to do it without a new industry, if Shang Jun can find good antiques and jade, she is interested in giving it a try . Playing with the jade pendant in his hand, Shu Qing smiled and said, "It seems that I'm going to open a few antique shops. The sea area can produce so many rare treasures, it should be a place full of spiritual energy."
Although Shu Qing is lazy, when he does things, he must do what he says and what he does. Shang Jun chuckled, and soon there will be an antique shop in the east corner. Not long after getting off the boat, he ran all the way to Huadu again. Shang Jun was a little tired and half leaned on the soft couch. Speaking of the sea, he raised the corner of his lips slightly and replied, "Not only is it full of spiritual energy, but it is also very strange." At least He hadn't heard of it.
Shu Qing took the empty teacup in Shang Jun's hand, and seeing him smiling strangely, he couldn't help but wonder, "Why is it so strange?"
"The folk customs in the sea area are special. Women are respected there, from the king to the merchants and pawns. It's better."
"Really?" Shu Qing laughed, not expecting that this other world also has a matriarchal clan society, it is really interesting, "That's interesting, do you feel like a duck in water?" A woman like Shang Jun, here, definitely deserves it. It is not necessary to say that the upper woman will not let her men go to the sea area.
Unexpectedly, Shang Jun pouted and replied with a dejected expression: "Unfortunately, I am a man now." Thinking of the fat hand that Master Meng rubbed on his hand, he felt disgusted.
Ah? Shu Qing couldn't help laughing, what happened to this world, in Cang Yue, Shang Jun had to disguise himself as a man in order to make himself stand in the heaven and earth, but when he arrived at the sea, it was difficult for women to be respected, but he was a "man" again. ! Why don't people sigh, things in the world are mostly unsatisfactory.
When he got up and put the cup in his hand beside the bookshelf, Shu Qing realized that there was a light rain falling outside the window, hitting the calm lake. It was silent, but there were ripples. She likes such a cold rainy day, the mist-like drizzle can make her refreshed, if the heart is like this calm lake, do you also expect such a moisturizing and silent love
"Shangjun, since you are here, stay in Huadu for a longer time. The weather in Linfengguan is cold. I have some white mink furs. I will have them made into leather jackets tomorrow. Huadu can't be put on either." Murong Shuqing turned around and saw Shang Jun on the soft couch with a calm expression and his eyes closed slightly, as if he was asleep, but also as if he was just closing his eyes and resting.
"Shangjun..." Shu Qing whispered.
"Huh?" After a long time, Shang Jun replied softly.
Shu Qing sighed, when will he be able to get a good night's sleep, so he doesn't need to be alert and awake even when he is sleeping? When will that beautiful face bloom into a soft smile
Shang Jun, how long will this girl who is only double ten have to suffer
In the end, Shang Jun didn't stay in Huadu for long, so he hurried back to Linfengguan, because the winter solstice was approaching, and he wanted to spend the festival with Xiaoer. Hurrying up and down, he finally arrived at Misty Mountain Villa before sunset, but Yang Zhong was the only one who greeted him at the door.
"Master, you are back."
"Where's Xiao'er?" In order to make Xiao'er happy, he didn't fix the book early, saying that he would arrive today? Why don't you see a smile
Yang Zhong laughed and replied, "Miss knows that you are coming back today, so you have to buy your favorite sweet-scented osmanthus honey in person. The guards escorted her out." After receiving the news three days ago, the eldest lady did not Don't bother, plant new flowers and plants for a while, buy new curtains for a while, and go out to buy nectar just now, so it's not enough to let the guards go.
He knew Xiao'er's temper, and he was also a cow when he was stubborn. Shang Jun laughed and asked, "How long have you been gone?"
Yang Zhong looked at the sky and replied, "It's been a while."
Shang Jun simply stopped entering the village, and handed over the horse directly to Yang Zhong, saying, "I'll pick her up and let the kitchen make wine balls at night."
"Yes." Yang Zhong looked at the white shadow rushing down the mountain, shook his head, and smiled knowingly, these two brothers and sisters are both impatient.
Linfengguan Market is very lively on weekdays. Now that the festival is coming, everyone wants to prepare the supplies for the festival as soon as possible. Even if the twilight is getting darker, there are still people. Shang Jun went all the way, and saw a group of people gathered around the door of the market. He didn't know what was going on. From time to time, there were scolding voices of men and women. Shang Jun wanted to leave, but he felt that the female voice was a little familiar, so he thought about it. Think, or step forward to have a look.
"You are shameless!"
Shang Xiao crossed his hips and yelled at a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.
The skinny man didn't expect her to be so aggressive, so he couldn't help shouting, "Little girl, why are you scolding people!"
Shang Xiao was not afraid of him, took a few steps forward, and continued to scold: "What's wrong with you, you are shameless and take advantage of others' danger."
The people watching the fun saw the little girl scolding cheerfully, and no matter what happened to him, they would tease and laugh first. The man's face was a little overwhelmed, he pushed away the people watching the fun, pointed at a plain-clothed woman and shouted: "Joke, you can't read or you don't have eyes! I didn't see her writing in black and white 'Selling one's body for a night, burying my father' , I'm helping her, lest her father's corpse be exposed in the wilderness. She also wants to thank me!"
It turned out that there was still a person kneeling on the ground.
When everyone looked at the woman, they saw that she was wearing a plain dress and a simple skirt, with a withered grass stuck on her head, and behind her, there was a corpse covered with a white cloth. The woman looks beautiful and beautiful, but her face is bloodless, her eyes are staring straight at the ground, and there is no sadness on her face. The two people in front of her were arguing upside down over her, and she didn't even raise her eyes. If she hadn't been able to kneel, I really doubted that she was also a corpse.
"You?? You are shameless!" Shang Xiao pointed at the thin man and cursed. She was going to buy nectar, but when she saw that this disciple was touching and pinching the girl, the dead father is already pitiful enough, and his mouth is not clean. Such a brazen person, dare to speak out! What if she didn't teach him a good lesson.
"Shameless?" the skinny man hummed, "The girl is willing to sell, I am willing to buy it, can you control it!"
Shang Xiao took out a bag of silver from his arms, shook it, and said with a smile, "Okay, I want to buy it, I'll buy it!" She would never let him succeed.
"You buy?" The skinny man suddenly burst out laughing, pointing at the woman kneeling on the ground, and smiling slyly, "Hahahaha, what a big joke, people are selling themselves to sleep with you, not serving as a servant girl, You really wasted this watery big girl by buying it, why don't you let me hurt!"
Such foul language can't be heard anymore, so he rushed up and gave him a kick, scolding: "Bah! You don't even look in the mirror, the toad wants to eat swan meat, it's faceless and skinless!"
The man was kicked by her and fell to the ground. Shang Xiao has been practicing martial arts for several years, especially in the past two years, with the guidance of Shang Jun, and diligently studying and practicing hard, his martial arts have improved a lot. It is naturally a piece of cake to deal with such a thin man.
The man got up from the ground, grabbed the side pole of the hawker next to him and waved it at Shang Xiao, how could the guards beside him allow him to be arrogant, and the long swords in his hands were unsheathed.
Seeing this posture, the man swallowed and backed away. He dropped the pole, and only dared to reply calmly: "Damn girl, good men don't fight with women. I don't care about you, and you don't come to disturb the beauty of the young master. Do you know what other girls sell? ? Go go go!"
It was really unlucky today. After finally encountering a good thing, he was disturbed by a little girl, and he was kicked for no reason. He couldn't take this kick in vain. He pulled up the woman who was still kneeling on the ground, and the man said: " Little lady, get up quickly, your father, the young master, will help you to bury you, come with me."
I don't know what to do! Shang Xiao rushed forward, took the woman's other hand, stuffed the silver into the woman's hand, raised his head, and said proudly, "Let her go. I have paid for the silver, and she should come with me. "
The thin man was also anxious, and scolded: "Little girl, you are not a man. If you don't understand, don't come to join in the fun. The girl sells Chu Ye, can you use it if you buy it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter, and even some good deeds whistled in agreement, this time the man was proud, waved his hand, and the man deliberately pretended to be kind and persuaded: "Okay little girl. , it's getting late, you'd better go home early, the family should be worried."
Shang Xiao bit her lip lightly. She didn't understand what they were laughing at. Do you have to be a man to help this poor woman? After thinking about it, Shang Xiao raised his head slightly and replied loudly, "I... I can't use it, my brother can always use it, I'll buy it for my brother!"
"Smile!"
