Bai Yueguang's substitute only wants salted fish

Qi Wenyao spent a long time trying to cover up the bite marks left by Fu Yichen.He gave up and specially wore a thick high collar dress, trying not to show any skin, so that Yu Shaoning would not see the clue.

The Shanhuan he dressed up this time is particularly bloated and fat.

"My lord." Wei Quan persuaded, "It's quite hot outside."

The current weather has a large temperature difference between morning and evening, and it is hot at noon.Qi Wenyao glanced at the sunny weather, hesitated for a while, but felt that staying indoors would not get too hot, "It's okay, the temperature will cool down at night."

He insisted, Wei Quan didn't stop him, and arranged a carriage to take him to find Meixuan to find Yu Shaoning.

Yu Shaoning is still busy today, walking around the small shop.Not only does he have to sell things, but he also needs to talk to old customers and cooperative painters about the upcoming move, so that he won't be able to get in touch when the time comes.

"Where are you going to move?" Everyone asked.

Yu Shaoning would always answer patiently, "I'll tell you as soon as I find the place."

Qi Wenyao happened to hear it, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Boss Yu is going to move to a lively place... probably Ruyi Square?"

"Brother Shan." Yu Shaoning was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, "Well, try to find a shop in Ruyifang."

Having said that, both the painter and the guest officer settled down.Especially the painter, who originally thought it was unreliable for Yu Shaoning to run away suddenly. He heard that the shop was going to be moved to the bustling Ruyifang.

Yu Shaoning got the famous post, and couldn't help feeling, "Brother Shan's words are better than me saying thousands of words."

"It's Ruyifang. Ruyifang is the busiest place in the imperial capital, and it's easy to make money by opening any store."

Yu Shaoning looked at him, "Brother Shan, have you considered it?"

"Let's go in and talk about it?" Qi Wenyao pointed to the room inside the painting and calligraphy shop.

Yu Shaoning also felt that it was inappropriate to talk more about business in an open place with many people, so he invited him into the house.Serving tea and snacks, I took the details I wrote down when I visited the shop earlier, and asked again without haste.

"Brother Shan, have you really thought about it? Doing business will not make a profit without losing money."

"Yeah." Qi Wenyao said helplessly, "You told me last time."

As if he wanted to test him, Yu Shaoning asked, "Brother Shan, do you remember what I said?"

"Remember, you said that there are few customers in the early stage of opening, and it will take a while to recover the cost. Enke is about to start. Talents are busy preparing, and the works are reduced. They have to rely on pens, inks, papers and inkstones to make up for it. What I think is calligraphy and painting Friends are different...Actually, I don’t want to make money by painting friends.”

"Fate? This..." Yu Shaoning didn't quite understand what he said.

It's hard for Qi Wenyao to reveal his true identity, "Anyway, I've thought it through. Didn't you write back to say that you've found a good shop? Are you going back on your cooperation by testing me like this?"

When Yu Shaoning heard the question he threw back, he couldn't pursue it anymore, "The shop has paid attention to it. But Ruyifang is too expensive, so I didn't dare to think about it."

"What happened to Ruyifang? I can get the money."

"That's a lot of money. Once the turnover is over..."

"I'll take care of it." Qi Wenyao said bluntly, "If you invest, you will get rewards. The location of Ruyifang is really good."

Yu Shaoning was still hesitating, "I'm afraid that the poor management will hurt Brother Shan,"

"If you don't find a shop in a lively place, you will be in trouble. You have made Xunmeixuan to this extent with your own hands, and you should understand the difficulties of doing business in a deserted place."

He said it bluntly, which made Yu Shaoning think a lot, "Yeah, I also suffered a lot."

Once, there was a disturbance nearby, which made the people of Huangdu afraid to go this way.Yu Shaoning delivered the goods himself, but he couldn't restore the declining customer flow. One time, the old painter who had cooperated with him for a long time was unable to use his legs. Yu Shaoning tried to pick up the paintings at home, but he couldn't last long because of insufficient manpower and the long distance; One time, the guest officer wanted to buy more, but after visiting once, he found it really inconvenient, so he gave up decisively.

Most talented people don't have the leisure to sacrifice time to find a boss with no background, and most guest officials don't want to take a detour to buy things.

Yu Shaoning's taste is elegant, but not to the point where it would be difficult for people to come here. He always follows behind the well-known and well-known shops to drink soup, and can't eat a few mouthfuls of meat.

"Brother Shan is right." Yu Shaoning nodded, "But the rent of Ruyifang is 50 taels a month."

Qi Wenyao's expression was calm, "Oh."

It's not calm, it's just that there is no concept.

He wasn't as preoccupied as he was when he just crossed over, thinking about how to save money and escaped from the palace, his concept of money had been blurred by the glory and wealth.Qi Wenyao, who represents power, can fetch ten thousand taels for a painting, but a group of dignitaries want to buy it but can’t find it.

"That shop can only display some calligraphy, paintings and tables, and there is no place to rest behind."

Yu Shaoning gestured to explain what a sky-high price 50 taels was.

Hearing this, Qi Wenyao asked a crucial question, "How much does your shop cost now?"

Yu Shaoning sighed, "Two Liang, the boss still let me live on the second floor."

Qi Wenyao had a deep understanding of Ruyifang's every inch of land and gold, "It's really expensive."

"Brother Shan doesn't care much about money?" Yu Shaoning asked softly, "Have you got married yet?"

Qi Wenyao couldn't help touching the half-covered bite mark on the back of his neck, "It's done."

It's an odd statement.Yu Shaoning was puzzled, and when he saw his embarrassment, he showed a considerate look, without asking, "Is the wife in charge of the money at home?"

"Yes." Qi Wenyao perked up when he heard the word "madam", and felt excited to think that he could be called Mrs. Fu Yichen.He began to think about it, and the corner of his mouth raised, showing an inappropriate smile.

Yu Shaoning understood at a glance, "Brother Shan and Madam are really affectionate."

"It's okay. He will support whatever I do."

"I'd better ask, lest Madam be upset."

Going around and back to the original question: Are you afraid of losing money?Still think about it.

Qi Wenyao became cruel, and said in a pretentious way, "It's really not necessary, our family has enough money, so we can afford it."

Yu Shaoning was stunned, and looked at his clothes unconsciously.

Shan Huan was dressed as an ordinary middle-aged man, without a entourage around him, so he didn't look like a high-ranking official.Don't take 50 taels seriously, and it seems unbelievable to say that you have money and can afford to pay.

Qi Wenyao understood, but he couldn't immediately take out a cash box and knock Yu Shaoning unconscious.

"The one in my family also makes money." Qi Wenyao thought about it, and decided to increase his confidence in other ways, "He earns much more than me."

Yu Shaoning sat up straight all of a sudden, "Madam is so powerful? Is it a big business?"

"No, he is a man who works in the court."

Before Qi Wenyao came here, he had already thought about it. To do business together, he must deal with the government.When he encounters trouble, he will definitely use the resources of his real identity to settle it. It will be too troublesome to explain to Yu Shaoning at that time, so it is better to just talk about it.

The scope of the imperial court's work is very large, he doesn't say much, and Yu Shaoning doesn't ask too much.

Even if he asked, Yu Shaoning would not have thought that "Mrs. Shanhuan" who "worked in the court" was the emperor.

Sure enough, Yu Shaoning didn't ask, "Okay. Let's go and see the shop in Ruyifang."

They set off together to Ruyifang.Ruyifang is the most lively place in the imperial capital, and it is hard to find a shop. The dentist who helped find a shop could not entertain them alone. Hearing that they wanted to see it, he formed a "shop viewing group" with other interested owners.

Yu Shaoning was still thinking about the one he saw last time, "Where is the one at the beginning of Dongsi Lane?"

"No more," the dentist smiled, "Such a good location, it was sold out the next day."

Yu Shaoning was startled, "For sale? Didn't you mean rent it out?"

"The master I like is rich, so I feel at ease holding it in my hand."

Yu Shaoning's complexion suddenly became heavy, and he turned his head and whispered, "Brother Shan, I'm afraid the most sought-after ones will be more expensive..."

"Let's see." Qi Wenyao said casually, his eyes fixed on a strong man in "Kanputuan".

The strong man was pretended by Wei Quan.Wei Quan was used to being a general, and he had a majestic spirit no matter how he walked, so he simply pretended to be a strong businessman.The way of pretending is very clumsy, choosing the fanciest clothes, wearing the brightest gold jewelry, and the mantra is "I can afford it".

Qi Wenyao took a few more glances, not because he was afraid that Wei Quan's poor acting skills would be recognized.

What he was afraid of was that this aura of nouveau riche was too attractive.

There are six people in the "Kanpu Group", and the dentist must have a certain emphasis.But Qi Wenyao dressed in a low-key manner, and Yu Shaoning looked weak because of lack of money, and the sense of presence together was not as strong as that of Wei Quan in disguise.

The dentist could see that Wei Quan was either rich or expensive, so he couldn't help wandering over, "Does the master like this one? What do you think? If you're not satisfied, there are other things!"

"Brother Shan, don't be angry." Yu Shaoning misunderstood Qi Wenyao's frown, "We've made up our minds, and it's not too late to talk to the dentist."

Qi Wenyao nodded, "No one disturbs, I can see more clearly."

"The sun can't shine in this shop, and the back tide will easily damage the calligraphy and paintings." Yu Shaoning has no money but has experience, so he looks carefully.

Qi Wenyao followed suit, and paid attention to the next room, "This room is good, with plenty of sunlight."

"It's so big, it's quite expensive." Yu Shaoning ran to ask the dentist, and when he came back, he had a sad face, "It's too expensive..."

"Brother Yu, buy it if it suits you."

"Buy?" Yu Shaoning was dumbfounded, "Brother Shan, don't listen to the dentist's nonsense, renting is not troublesome."

Qi Wenyao glanced around and still couldn't change his mind, "But this one is really suitable. It's about the same size as your shop, and the place is conspicuous. You can tell it's not damp just by looking at the doors, windows, and beams. The back door can directly lead to Wenlin Street. There are many houses over there, I can buy a similar one to take care of it.”

Yu Shaoning was even more confused, "Brother Shan still wants to buy a house?"

"Well, my wife and I want to live in another place."

Hearing that he called Fu Yichen his wife, Wei Quan began to cough, "cough cough cough!"

Qi Wenyao glared, "Brother, did you catch a cold? Shall I take you to see a doctor?"

Wei Quan, who somehow became the younger brother: "..."

"Oh, it's not good to be small. I haven't served tea to the masters after watching it for so long." The dentist stuck to him again to flatter him.

Wei Quan couldn't get away, so he had time to ask Qi Wenyao, "Is your lady really his wife?"

"Yes, she is my wife." Qi Wenyao became addicted to bragging, "Just listen to me. When I get angry, he doesn't dare to look me in the eye."

Wei Quan frowned, Yu Shaoning was in a fog.

Qi Wenyao brought the topic back, "Younger, don't be afraid, I am in charge of the family's money, and he usually keeps it for me, and his words don't count."

Yu Shaoning nodded ignorantly, "Brother Shan is so lucky."

The dentist fawned over Wei Quan for a moment, but was surrounded by other bosses who were optimistic about the shop.This shop was really good, and the other three felt that it was an opportunity, and they all expressed that they could pay the deposit immediately.

Qi Wenyao hurried over and said, "I want to buy it."

The tooth merchant was surprised, and compared the number seven with both hands, "Master, have you figured it out? We need... this number here."

"Brother Shan, you still want to buy a house." Yu Shaoning reminded in a low voice, "It must be Qian, don't get it wrong."

Qi Wenyao frowned, "I know, I will definitely set aside money to buy a house."

"Go home and discuss with your wife first." Yu Shaoning reminded again.

Qi Wenyao sighed, "Yu Yu, trust me, my wife is really obedient..."

Yu Shaoning lowered his voice, "So I bit you?"

Qi Wenyao was dazed, and subconsciously raised his hand to touch his neck, "When did you find out?"

"I found out earlier." Yu Shaoning bowed his head in embarrassment, "It's hard to say."

Qi Wenyao couldn't explain it either, so he continued to follow the topic, "Just, because of this, he wants to compensate me."

Yu Shaoning ran out of tricks, and took out a piece of silver to say good things to the dentist, "We really want to buy it, but we need to think about it for two days. Can you please keep it for us?"

Two days is not long for the dentist to think about, and the owner of the shop is indeed inclined to sell.The fact that this place is so good means that the rent is expensive, and the previous tenants felt that they couldn’t afford it if they had a little trouble with their turnover, which invisibly caused a lot of trouble for the owner.

"Good sir." The dentist smiled, apologizing to the other three.

The other three people understood that the wealth and power were not comparable, so they accepted it calmly: it would be a big deal and come back to ask in two days.

They'll go see something else next.Qi Wenyao has seen the best one, but he is dissatisfied with the second best one.He looked around and made up his mind to buy it. When he wanted to say goodbye, he said to Yu Shaoning, "Thank you just now, let me pay the deposit."

"Brother Shan really thanked me, just listen to my persuasion."

"Tell me." Qi Wenyao saw Yu Shaoning's seriousness, and also put on a serious look.

"Your family members work in the imperial court, so you should understand that the emperor and the courtiers are the same? The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and Enke is about to start again. If there is an emergency... it is better to save some money and not spend it all."

Qi Wenyao understood that Yu Shaoning had good intentions, and patted on the shoulder, "I understand, so I want to put the money in business and find a way out."

"It's a solution, but don't be in a hurry. Brother Shan, go back and discuss it with your family first."

"Okay, I've thought it over in the past two days, and I'll bring my wife to see it next time."

Yu Shaoning was curious, "What kind of person is Brother Shan's family?"

Somehow, seeing Yu Shaoning's cautious look, Qi Wenyao became playful, "It's fierce."

Yu Shaoning's eyes widened, his lips fluttered and he didn't speak for a while.

"Ha." Qi Wenyao put away his joking thoughts, "Don't be afraid, I'm joking."

Yu Shaoning smiled, "I'm not afraid. Brother Shan can hold him down."

Qi Wenyao was very satisfied, "That's right! I'm amazing!"

It's cool to brag, but Yu Shaoning has to go back to the store, so he doesn't have the time to listen to his nonsense for so long.Qi Wenyao bid farewell to Yu Shaoning and started on the way back. After turning into the carriage back to the palace, he found that something was wrong.

"Where's Wei Quan?" Qi Wenyao wondered, "I won't be pestered by the dentist, right?"

A guard answered him, "Master Wei went back first and said he has something important to report."

Qi Wenyao was stunned, feeling the word "important matter" keep echoing in his ears.

It can't be a matter of calling madam, right?If Fu Yichen knew...

Qi Wenyao shuddered, feeling that he was in danger tonight.
