"A dream is just what you want to do most in your life."
Lin Mengya tilted her head and looked at Bai Shao seriously.
For the first time, Bai Shao was not standing in anyone else's perspective, but only in her own perspective, thinking about her nineteen years of life.
"I want to... say it, Master, don't laugh at me. In fact, I want to become a rich man. If I am not a girl, I want to be the richest person in our Jin Dynasty!"
Looking at Bai Shao's longing face, Lin Mengya felt unable to laugh.
Behind every dream, perhaps, there is a sad past.
In his mind, he suddenly remembered what Bai Shao had said when he was wronged by the people in Yaxuan.
Beauty is not a woman's fault. But because of this unfounded crime, he will be criticized by many people.
This is inherently unfair to women.
"Master, I was just joking, please don't laugh at me."
From the sweet dream to reality in an instant, Bai Shao suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
It was like someone had revealed the secret that I most wanted to hide.
But if the other party was Lin Mengya, it made her feel less embarrassed.
"No, I think I'm quite ambitious. In the past, I thought that if I could buy you a generous dowry and find a good family, I would be responsible for you. Now it seems that I have wasted your talents. . No matter what you want to do, just do it with confidence and boldness. You have me and the prince to back you up."
Seeing Lin Mengya's serious look, Bai Shao quickly explained.
"How can this be possible? I just want to be a good girl for my masters. As for doing business, how can I do it?"
Before it even started, Bai Shao began to deny herself.
Let alone her, businesswomen are extremely rare even in the entire Jin Dynasty.
The most powerful thing is to manage the husband's property. If you want to do business in a public way, I'm afraid it won't work.
What's more, she is just a daughter of a common people, how can she do this
"How can you know if you don't try? Look at me, all the princesses in Kyoto are just admiring flowers and grass. Have you ever seen any princess traveling so far away?"
Bai Shao was still a little worried, but Lin Mengya held her little hand and patiently persuaded her.
"Actually, I don't plan to let you be this kind of businessman who travels around. In fact, I plan to let you help me manage an auction house."
There was no other way, so Lin Mengya could only coax her first to do things for herself.
Sure enough, when it came to his master's affairs, Bai Shao's eyes immediately showed some interest.
"I have a friend, and she has collected a lot of medicinal materials and treasures. Moreover, she also knows that there are many people who have good things in their hands, but they are priceless. So, I want to open an auction house. Firstly, I can auction some of my friend’s good things. Secondly, if someone else comes to sell them, we can also make a profit in the middle. In this case, you don’t have to stay away from me. And you don’t have to show your face. .No matter what it is, someone else will do it for you. What do you think?"
The idea of opening an auction house has been lingering in Lin Mengya's mind for a long time.
Sanjuetang's business is booming, and a lot of good things have been collected during these days.
Of course, the person who can come in exchange for information is not just someone who can provide money.
In the eyes of Jianghu people, money is not the most important thing.
Martial arts secrets, natural materials and earthly treasures, these things are more precious in the eyes of those in the world.
Although Lin Mengya carefully designed the place where these things are stored in Sanjue Hall. However, in addition to silver as a hard currency in circulation, there were also only a small amount of gold, silver and jewelry, which were sold and became basic funds.
But since then, things have been wasted.
It's better to set up an auction house to make these things have a higher value.
At the same time, it can also give a hint to those rich people.
There is nothing they can't get in Sanjue Hall. In this way, it also gave Sanjuetang a good publicity.
Those people below have enough money to do things, right
Although Yunzhu is good at dancing, running this kind of thing still requires some talent.
She had long discovered that Bai Shao was particularly powerful in mental arithmetic. The account books in Prince Yu's Mansion are recorded in the book, but no one can clearly remember them in their minds.
With such a ready-made treasure, isn't she stupid
Bai Shao looked at Lin Mengya blankly, and what he kept thinking about in his mind were his master's words.
If that's the case, maybe, she can really give it a try.
"Don't refuse me in a hurry. I'm afraid we can't handle this matter until we get to Kyoto. The most important thing is that the prince cannot find out."
The two women looked at each other and smiled. They loved the people in the courtyard, not much else but a lot of secrets.
Next to the fire outside the door, the person they wanted to hide was sitting upright with his back to them.
The crackling sound of burning wood in the fire made the originally quiet night a little noisy.
In the tent behind him, his princess must have been sleeping peacefully.
Standing outside a person's tent like this to protect her. It seems that this is the first time.
Born in an imperial family, he used to think that women were just accessories to him.
Even if he were to marry a princess in the future, it would just be for the sake of continuing the family line and the icing on the cake.
Unexpectedly, the most unique princess in the world would just fall into his palace.
Thinking back, when he first met her, he didn't want to marry her.
In the blink of an eye, almost a year has passed. Thinking about it, I always have various feelings in my heart.
Only, there is no word "bored".
Not far away, Qiu Yu also walked out of the tent.
Unlike Lin Mengya's three girls who were so lucky, he and Long Tianyu had to live in public tents.
Although there were six people per room, those who could sleep under the double attack of snoring and smelly feet were considered gods.
In desperation, he had no choice but to sit by the fire and pass the time.
"I'll take over for you, you go to bed."
Qiu Yu sat beside Long Tianyu, stretched out his hand and fiddled with the fire.
But Long Tianyu's eyes were fixed on him tightly. There was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like this? I won't harm her. Just rest assured."
Qiu Yu seemed carefree on the surface, but Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu both vaguely guessed that this person was extraordinary.
Along the way, Long Tianyu also saw it. This person had no good intentions towards Lin Mengya.
This was not because he was stingy, but Lin Mengya's choice to trust Qiu Yu still brought him some unpleasant memories.
"I don't care what your identity is, if you dare to plot against her, I will definitely kill you."
Qiu Yu stopped his hand and turned his face to look at Long Tianyu.
The handsome face, who was also unwilling to be outdone, no longer had the pretentious relaxed smile. He looked steadily at Long Tianyu. Their eyes collided with each other, and neither one was willing to give in first.
"Don't sound so noble. Didn't you have another purpose in marrying her? Yes, I admit that it was my own purpose to get close to Lin Mengya. But don't think that she will be easily used by you. "
The two threatened each other like a riddle, but they already understood each other.
Long Tianyu just looked at Qiu Yu coldly, but his heart was suddenly shocked.
"You don't need to talk about the matter between me and her. If you dare to say more, no matter who you are, I will make you pay the price."
Standing up, Long Tianyu didn't want to talk nonsense to this person anymore.
However, his line of sight stopped at the tent door where Lin Mengya was for a moment, and then he went over and carefully covered the tent door tightly.
What he didn't want Lin Mengya to find out, she would never know.
But why is there always a sense of uneasiness lingering in my heart
"Brother Yuan, it's so late, haven't you gone to bed yet?"
Just as he passed by the tent where the female relatives lived, Sumei's gentle voice blocked his face.
Under the moonlight, Sumei's little face was as light as water. He was only wearing a single piece of clothing, but he looked pitiful.
But Long Tianyu just glanced at her lightly, then walked around her and strode towards his tent.
"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, I have something to tell you!"
Sumei didn't expect that this Yuan Mei would be so ruthless, so she could only follow him and call him a few times.
Long Tianyu really didn't want to deal with this woman, but the camp was so big. The other men who were keeping vigil all smiled ambiguously at him.
This feeling of being wronged was really not what he liked.
When she turned around, Long Tianyu didn't talk or smile, and looked at her without any expression.
"Actually, it's about your little sister."
He emphasized the pronunciation of the words on the little girl. If she spoke louder, others would definitely hear her.
Lin Mengya once said that she didn't want anyone to find out her identity. Long Tianyu glared at Sumei and whispered:
"You'd better watch your mouth!"
Sumei, who had been warned, suddenly burst into tears from her watery eyes.
His panicked expression was as innocent and pitiful as a deer's.
But in Long Tianyu's eyes, this kind of artificial woman is what he hates the most.
His handsome eyebrows wrinkled slightly. Although he didn't hit women, when he killed someone, he didn't distinguish between men and women.
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Actually, I just want to tell you that she might have done something wrong in Huichunfang. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything else to do. I just think that a It seems a little inappropriate for my daughter’s family, who is innocent, to do this.”
