The best county magistrate

"Oh? Thanks for the reminder, sir, we'll go take a look now."

After Yang Xuanchen replied, he immediately took Zhao Xue's hand and walked away quickly.

"Master, slow down, oh, please slow down."

"Why are you walking so fast? I still want to walk around for a while."

Seeing that he didn't speak and just walked forward, Zhao Xue felt helpless and had no choice but to speed up his pace.

After the two of them walked away, Yang Xuanchen looked back, took a few deep breaths, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, that guy is definitely a homosexual! I was scared to death."

"What is homosexuality?" Zhao Xue asked with her big eyes flashing.

"I mean, that guy just now has a habit of cutting off his sleeves. We two are so handsome, maybe he has taken a liking to us."

Zhao Xue got goosebumps all over her body when she heard this. She held her shoulders with her hands and shook. She seemed to feel a little scared.

But the next sentence made Yang Xuanchen shocked on the outside and tender on the inside, "Master, can you men also have sex with men?"

"The person next to you, Mary, is thinking about something stupid."

He said and pulled her, "Let's go and have a look at Xihe Building. Don't you want to buy a hairpin? Master will buy it for you today."

Whether in modern times or ancient times, women seem to be naturally irresistible to shopping.

I saw Zhao Xue's eyes smiling like crescent moons, dragging Yang Xuanchen towards Xihe Building, a little faster than before.

Xihelou is a newly opened shop on Menghua Street. It is a business for women. It has a complete range of products including rouge, gouache, and jewelry.

The two of them were picking up items when suddenly the big shopkeeper behind the counter came out with a smile on his face.

"Master, why are you here today?"

"There's chaos ahead, let's go to the backyard to rest."

"Come here, serve some tea!"

The young man didn't speak just now, nodded to the shopkeeper with a smile, and walked ahead.

But after walking a few steps, he saw Yang Xuanchen again. He turned around and walked over.

"Young Master, we met again. I didn't expect you would actually come to Xihelou."

"Acquaintance means destiny. Today I will make a decision. As long as the young master picks up something, no matter how many pieces it is, no matter how valuable it is, I will give it to him."

This sentence was said to the shopkeeper, which made him a little confused.

What the hell?

Free gift?

What if this pretty boy vacates the store?

"My boss, this... I'm afraid..."

Before he finished speaking, the young master's tone suddenly became much sharper, "I will bear the blame, and I won't make it difficult for you."

Then he smiled at Yang Xuanchen and said, "Master, what do you think?"

At this time, Zhao Xue was a little unconvinced. She jumped out and shouted: "Handsome guy, why can my master give it away for free, but I can't?"

The young master didn't seem to take her rudeness to heart and just smiled lightly, "I only send the young master as a gift. As for you..."

He pinched his chin and thought for a moment, "That's fine. If you like it, I'll give it to you too."

"Wow, thank you handsome guy!"

So Zhao Xue pulled Yang Xuanchen and shouted excitedly, "Master, you would be foolish not to pick up the bargains. Let's pick them up quickly!"

However, Yang Xuanchen did not move. He endured the strong discomfort in his heart and met the young master's gaze.

"You don't have to be like this, Your Majesty. We pay for it ourselves, so there's no need to be so polite."

"The items in your store don't look cheap, how can I let you spend money on them?"

As he spoke, he took out a hundred-tael silver note from his sleeve and stuffed it into Zhao Xue's hand, "Xiaoxue, let's spend our own money on whatever we like."

Who knew that Zhao Xue seemed to be suffering from some serious illness now, muttering, "Master, your banknotes are not enough. It costs more than 200 taels to buy four hairpins."

Yang Xuanchen's little face fell, and he cursed in his heart, "Grandma's bear, don't you know how embarrassing it is to shout like this?"

Looking in the direction of Zhao Xue's little finger, I saw the hairpin next to my Mary's. Is this hairpin inlaid with gold? Why is it so expensive?

Even if Qingshui County is wealthy, there are very few women who can afford dozens of taels of hairpins.

Just thinking about it, he glanced at the other jewelry a few more times. They were all good, and some were cheap.

Then she glared at Zhao Xue and said angrily: "It's not like you don't know our family background, just pick something cheap."

At this time, the young master took some hairpins that Zhao Xue liked from the counter and stuffed them into Yang Xuanchen's hands.

"Young master, don't be polite, just treat me as a friend."

As he spoke, he did not forget to reveal a more charming smile, which made the hairs all over Yang Xuanchen stand up.

"Master, just accept it. This handsome guy is so sincere, we can't help but appreciate it."

The one next to Mary, am I the one who doesn’t know how to appreciate someone?

Didn't you see he touched my hand just now?

My hands are not clean anymore. Heaven and earth, who will save me?

After some pushback, Zhao Xue finally accepted the hairpin happily.

"You two gentlemen, you must have bought them to give away. It just so happens that I still have some good items that I haven't put on display."

"Why don't you go to the backyard with me to have a cup of tea and watch slowly, it's still early..."

Hearing this, Yang Xuanchen waved his hands repeatedly, "Ah, no problem, there will be dinner later, so I won't bother you any more."

"Xiaoxue, thank you for your kindness, Master!"

Watching the two people leaving, the young master's face was inexplicably filled with excitement, and the excitement was palpable.

In the backyard of Xihelou, he took a cup of tea and took a sip, "This Zixiao Fairy Cui is pretty good, it's much better than the Lanshan Yunwu."

"I arrived a few days ago and spent some time looking at Qingshui County."

"It's just that I didn't have the opportunity to visit some of the industrial parks in the south and north of the city."

He was talking to himself, and then changed the subject, "By the way, do you know those two gentlemen just now?"

The shopkeeper shook his head with a smile, "I haven't seen it before, but there are not many people in Qingshui County who can come up with a hundred taels of silver notes."

"Master, would you like me to go check it out?"

"Forget it, just check and see which family the young master belongs to."

After the young master sent away the shopkeeper, another woman who looked like a maid came to the yard.

"Young Master, the investigation you want to investigate has come to fruition."

He nodded and motioned for the woman to continue.

"The share of sea salt next year has increased by 30% compared to this year, with a total of 26 products."

"The starting price is still ten cents per catty, and each share has been increased to eight million catties."

"It seems that the salt drying fields in Qingshui County have expanded in recent years."

"However, the county magistrate Yang Xuanchen has not shown up about the auction so far. The county magistrate Wei Junzhi has been hosting the various salt merchants."

"Our people have contacted him and have not received any useful information."

"..."

After listening to the report, the young master did not express his opinion immediately. He just kept tapping the stone table with his knuckles.

"Shaoyao, do you have someone you like?"

The question shocked her.

Shouldn't I be asking about the auction? Why are you asking this so suddenly?

Could it be that he has been doing things poorly recently, and the young master wants to marry him off without him?

So what should I do with this infatuation?

"Shaoyao will be the eldest son for the rest of his life and will not like others!" She was so frightened that she knelt on the ground.

"Haha, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to ask you women, what would you do if you liked someone?"

Shaoyao raised his head and looked at the young master in front of him with strange eyes.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "I don't know what it feels like to like someone."

"But I believe that if you like someone, you will think about him and give him all your good things."

"No matter how bad he treats me, he will still like him without hesitation."

At this time, the young master asked: "Don't you ask for anything in return?"

Shaoyao thought for a moment and replied seriously, "No."

"Okay, please step back and let me be quiet."

As the sun set, the last ray of sunset reflected on the young master's face. He twisted the one hundred taels of silver note in his hand and put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it.

The faint scent of osmanthus is refreshing, and the smile at the corner of the mouth adds a bit of color to the feminine face.
