Soon the shopkeeper of the embroidery shop came back at a trot. When the two little maids saw the shopkeeper coming back, they quickly stopped talking, took the selected pieces of embroidery and asked the shopkeeper to count the money and settle the bill before leaving.

Mingjia waited for the shopkeeper to finish his work, then ran over and said, "You have kept me waiting. My wife said that the handkerchief you ordered can be picked up in three days. This quilt will take ten days."

Mingjia thought about it and realized that he could wait for ten days. "Okay, let's place the order! The shopkeeper will help me calculate the deposit, and I'll give it to you right now!"

Seeing Mingjia's cheerful answer, the shopkeeper didn't even negotiate the price. He happily quoted the amount of money and even offered a small change.

Ming Jia gave the shopkeeper the money, got up and followed the shopkeeper to the counter. The shopkeeper was going to give Mingjia change, "Hey! Shopkeeper, whose house are those two maids just now?"

Ming Jia saw the shopkeeper counting the pieces of silver and asked. The shopkeeper was not distracted and answered casually, "It's from the Sun family in the county. His mistress likes our embroidery very much."

Mingjia nodded, Sun family! Mingjia only inquired out of curiosity. Mingjia just hoped not to encounter the tragic story of Chen Shao'ang and the eldest daughter of the Zhou family again.

Mingjia collected the change, took the order for picking up the goods, and left the embroidery shop. Ming Jia looked at the sky, waved her hand, and said to Shi Shi and Cheng Wen, "Let's go! I'll treat you to dinner!"

Mingjia took people directly to the largest restaurant in the county. It was lunch time. Mingjia glanced at the seats on the first floor and found that they were almost full.

"Is there still room on the second floor?" Mingjia asked the waiter who ran over to receive him.

The waiter quickly led the person upstairs, "There is a seat on the second floor. Sir, please come upstairs!" The waiter glanced at Ming Jia's clothes and immediately gave up the idea of ​​asking people to share a table on the first floor.

In this noisy environment, Shi Shi and Cheng Wen were particularly vigilant and kept looking at the people around them. Suddenly, Fourteen saw a somewhat familiar figure leaving from the first floor carrying a food box.

Mingjia ate less, but Shishi and Chengwen were there! So Mingjia ordered several of the restaurant's signature dishes and asked Shishi and Chengwen to sit down and eat together.

Sitting down and waiting for the food, Shi Shi thought for a while and finally spoke out about what he had just discovered. "Master, I just saw Li Shuan's boy. He must have brought a food box to buy some vegetables and went back."

Mingjia was a little surprised. Isn't that Li Shuan preparing for the exam in Xuzhou?

Mingjia originally wanted to find an opportunity to formally thank Li Shuan for his help. As a result, the talent list directly pushed Li Shuan to the forefront, and Mingjia has been very busy since then.

Just now in the embroidery shop, Mingjia only heard the second half of the gossip, or because the shopkeeper went to the backyard, the little maid slightly lowered her voice.

However, although Shi Shi and Cheng Wen stood at the door, they listened to the entire gossip. "Master, the scholar that the maid of the Sun family was talking about in the embroidery shop just now seems to be Li Shu'an."

Several dishes had been served at this moment. Mingjia used his chopsticks first, and then asked Shi Shi and Cheng Wen to eat first.

Mingjia felt that if it was Li Shuan, why did he feel that Li Shuan was being plotted again? This man is quite unlucky!

Ming Jia said: "Eat first! After we get back, ask Uncle Li to come to the county to find out whether Li Shu'an is from Tonglin County, and what's going on with the Sun family."

In the afternoon, Mingjia didn't buy anything more. After all, they were going to really start their journey after leaving Xuzhou.

Back at the rental yard, Mingjia called Uncle Li over and told him what happened today. "Uncle Li, please help me inquire. If there is no problem, we won't care."

Uncle Li saw that Miss Mingjia didn't tell her what to do if there was a plot, so he guessed that Miss Mingjia still wanted to help. "Okay, I'll take someone to inquire."

After Uncle Li left, Mingjia fell into deep thought. She just saw Uncle Li's eyes. Mingjia was a little unsure, if Li Shuan was really being plotted, should he intervene?

Mingjia has never wanted to get involved in other people's causes and effects, just like Chen Shao'ang's matter. Because of his intervention, Xuzhou's natural harbor was indirectly discovered two years in advance.

Mingjia didn't know how big an effect this "little butterfly" could have. From Chen Shao'ang's perspective, six years later, the impact of the vibration of wings was already huge.

Because Mingjia remembers this time point very clearly in the summer of the fifteenth year of Kaiyuan, but what about those things and time points that Mingjia doesn't remember at all?

Especially when the male protagonist of the original book abdicated, Mingjia didn't know that something had already begun to affect her from the time Li Shuan lent her the carriage.

In the end, Mingjia decided to wait until Uncle Li came back from the investigation before making a decision!

The next day, before Uncle Li returned to report anything, Cheng Zhi and Cheng De returned from Xuzhou City.

"Master, we have looked at several good single-family shops in the city. We will give priority to the ones for sale according to your instructions." Cheng Zhi took out a detailed list from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Mingjia with both hands.

Mingjia looked at the locations of the shops on the list, recalling the streets of Xuzhou City in his mind, and soon counted the approximate locations of several shops.

Suddenly, Mingjia asked curiously: "Have you ever come across a shop that is very suitable, but the owner doesn't want to sell it?" Okay! Mingjia was considering whether to wait for Xuzhou to clean up and pick up the leaks himself.

Cheng Zhi and Cheng De looked at each other and shook their heads. The two of them looked for a yaozi in the city, but they didn't look at the shops that were not owned by the yaozi.

Ming Jia didn't feel disappointed either. After the Cao family and Song family were liquidated, taking over a lot of their wasteland by himself would not attract much attention, but if he went to pick up missing shops, he would probably attract attention.

Mingjia just hesitated for a while before deciding which shop to buy as the address of Xuzhou Shiqu Building. The location was not good and a bit remote, and of course the price was cheap.

Mainly because Mingjia and Chen Shao'ang had talked about Xuzhou City's future plans. Mingjia didn't care about current profits, so Mingjia bought this shop and made a sure profit.

It has been half a month since Mingjia wrote to Chuanzhou, and Huang Zhengqing should have received the letter. Mingjia's letter asked Huang Zhengqing to bring several children from primary school to Xuzhou.

The primary school not only trained children who knew herbal medicine, but later added arithmetic and accounting courses. If Mingjia was allowed to stay in Sichuan, Daliang No. 1 Technical College might be born in Sichuan.

Ming Jia also hopes to have his own people available as soon as possible. Huang Zhengqing was transferred all the way to Xuzhou by himself, and Huang Jiawen still wants to study in Chuanzhou.

"Hey! I don't have anyone in my hands, so I'm really restricted in everything I can do." Ming Jia now only hopes that Huang Zhengqing will come to Xuzhou as soon as possible.
