The Story of Leaping from the Dragon Gate

As one of the time-honored brands on Fanbo Street in Xishi, Mu's House is a typical family business.It is Mu Sanye who is in charge of the Xidu head office, and Mu Qiye is the one who runs the long-distance north-south.One for the inside and one for the outside, these are the two most important pillars of Mu family.Mr. Liu was in poor health, so he stayed in his hometown in the Western Regions and did not come out, and was responsible for controlling the supply of goods.The rest of the brothers, some passed away at an early age, and some were not good at management, so they are not worth mentioning.

Due to the opportunity to open up the Cochin market in southern Xinjiang, the Mu family plans to send some of the more outstanding disciples of the second generation to establish a permanent base.The mature north-south trade routes are slowly being handed over to the next generation.The newly opened east-west trade route from Xidu to the capital will be taken care of by the third master and the seventh master.The emperor's imperial decree Jinkou Yuyan ordered Taifu Temple to entrust the Mu family with the two procurement tasks of fur medicines for the palace and official use.This is a good start, and it may not be able to gradually erode and monopolize more fields if it is broadened and deepened.

Looking at the overall situation, Mu's is the first firm in the West City that simultaneously connects the north-south and east-west trade routes.In time, it is likely to become the leader of Fanbo Street.For Song Wei, who has helped a lot by not showing off, he is naturally very generous.

Mu Sanye and Mu Qiye met Song Wei together, but it was Qiye who mainly spoke.The third master just sat on one side, occasionally looking at the young man, drinking tea with a smile.Because he didn't run out very much, he seemed richer and more amiable than Qi Ye, who was used to traveling long distances.Song Wei had met the third master from a distance several times before, and this was the first time he had really dealt with each other face to face.

After exchanging pleasantries, let's get to the point.The Mu family thought very carefully and prepared four plans for Song Wei to choose from.

Mu Qiye first opened a box on the table, and it was dazzlingly bright, and the jewels and jewels instantly shone brightly in the room.

"These are jade, gold and a little jewelry. How much is it worth? It's too flexible. It's hard to say. You can see for yourself."

Then he pointed to a stack of papers: "These are the land deeds and deeds for the shop of the farm. The harvest of the farm is good, and the shop is also in a good location. If you don't mind, I will give it to you as well." After that, Mu Qiye will Handed over the contract full of words.Song Wei waved his hands again and again: "No need, I can't understand. Besides, I still can't trust your youngest?"

Then Mu Qiye picked up an inconspicuous jade tablet next to him: "This is a token from my Mu family to the shopkeeper. After taking this, you will be treated like the shopkeeper. If you want, you can try to run away with me." Jingdu Commercial Road." Glancing at Song Wei, he added, "So far, there are no more than three people who have this brand in their hands, excluding the one surnamed Mu."

From the point of view of the Mu family, Song Wei has a lot of connections with King Jiaozhi, Princess Minghua, and the Marquis of Xian, and since he is capable, of course it is best to try to get on top of his own ship.The big shopkeeper not only has a good salary, but also can share the shares of the owner and participate in the core business, so it can be said that the future is boundless.Mr. Mu thinks that this is a plan that has the best of both worlds and everyone is happy. Song Wei must make this choice if he has a brain.He also knew Song Xiaolang's age and appearance, and after being introduced by his younger brother, he decided that he was a rare talent, so he inevitably wanted to recruit him.It just so happens that there is a young girl who is waiting to be married under her knees. She is present today, but most of her thoughts are on examining the son-in-law candidates.

Fortunately, there is another Mu Qiye who knows Song Wei better, seeing that although his demeanor is gentle, his eyes are actually always light, so he knows that these are not very satisfactory.Pick up two sheets of thin paper and a small seal from the tray on the far side: "This is the last two. Starting from the first opening of the Kyoto trade route this year, all profits from this trade route will be divided into half a year for you every year. For 20 years. The paper is the contract, and the seal is the token, take a look."

Song Wei's eyes lit up.This is the legendary eating dry stock, which is commonly known as the so-called rice worm.He grinned unabashedly, and stretched out his hand to take the things: "Master Qi, Master Third, you two are too polite! How dare you pretend to be..." As he spoke, he accepted the handed-over item from Lord Mu Qi with a smile on his face. Pen, too lazy to look at the content of the contract, signed his name with a swipe, dipped in cinnabar to stamp it, and put the thumb-sized seal into his arms.

Gold, silver, jewelry, and farm pavement all have to spend their energy on looking after them, and they will suffer for nothing.The position of head shopkeeper of the Mu family is certainly attractive, but he, Song Wei, has never had that kind of ambition.He saluted the two bosses sincerely and thanked them. When he looked at Mu Qiye, he had a flattering expression of "Your old man knows me best".

Qi Ye hated that iron can't be made into steel, but he didn't have the position to teach him a lesson. He pointed at his nose and said, "You...ah!"

Song smiled even more obsequiously: "Well...Qiye, can I, um, advance some money..."

Mu Qiye's face was serious: "Didn't you say you were executed at the Weng's house? Could it be that the Weng's house still deducted your wages?"

"Recently the expenses are relatively high, and money is a bit tight..." I specially made an appointment with my mother this afternoon, just to have more money in my pocket.Going shopping with famous prostitutes is also an honor to spend money.

Mu Qiye knew his bachelor habits very well: "What expenses can you have? It's nothing more than drinking and having fun. From now on, the annual bonus will be divided into three times for you, so as not to throw it at brothels and restaurants, and finally come to me to beg for food!"

Song Wei blushed, bowed her head in acquiescence, and begged softly.Mu Qiye had no choice but to throw him a bag of copper coins and two gold bars in the end.

Third Master Mu watched coldly, seeing that Song Wei didn't respond to Chongbao's wealth first, and now he was acting like a baby for a little money, thinking that this person is really not simple, but it is not suitable for him to be a son-in-law.Neither simple nor appropriate.

Song Wei screwed up a blind date unknowingly.After coming out of Mu's house, I had lunch at a roadside restaurant, and then rode leisurely to the East Archway.Because I was dating a beautiful woman today, I thought the donkey was cheap, so I rode a horse instead.No matter how gray the color of Deda's coat is, he is a good horse after all.

It's still early, and the beauty hasn't arrived yet.The East Archway is the east entrance to the West Market, and it is also the main entrance.Customers come in groups in the afternoon, which is very lively.Song Wei first sat at a roadside tea stall drinking tea, spanking and chatting with people.Later, I felt that the field of view was too narrow and the location was too low, and it was easy to miss, so I got on my horse and stood in front of the pillars of the archway and waited.

Song Manji bought him a lot of clothes since he came back from the south.The mother has always been willing to dress up her son, and with a lot of money on hand, each outfit she buys is more beautiful than the other.At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, Song Wei wore a ramie single shirt embroidered with multicolored silk on a white background, which was both gorgeous and refreshing.Wearing a small felt hat with a turned-up brim askew on his head, he is very playful and handsome.People who come and go, especially the opposite sex, from teenagers to decades, can't help but look at him more.Quite a few young men who also wore felt hats were secretly sour, and followed suit, quietly pulling the brims of their hats, thinking they were extra chic.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd.Song Wei looked up, and saw a group of people riding horses pushing towards this side.The entrance is congested, and most people will dismount and walk when they come here.People like Song Wei who climbed onto the horse's back stood still and didn't move much.The group of people who refused to get off the horse was surrounded by a young girl, who seemed very impatient, and rode forward while scolding.Judging by the way she dresses, she must be a lady from a wealthy family.Since they appeared, the pedestrians around have given way, and some people have recognized the person who came, it is a celebrity in the Western capital city, Miss Xue Changshi, Xue Sanlang's relative sister, notoriously domineering.

Song Wei heard it, curled her lips, and stood still.

Because the crowd moved quickly, forcing them to squeeze out of a way, the horses began to trot.

A couple with several children are walking to the bottom of the archway.The man carried one on his back, held one in his hand, and the woman led one, who was just able to walk, and followed an older one, only six or seven years old, who kept looking around.Hearing the commotion behind them, the family stopped to watch the commotion.When he realized something was wrong, he panicked and hid to the side.Holding the little one in his hand, he turned around to shout for the big one, but the kid was already lagging behind, but panicked in a hurry, his feet were unsteady, he fell to the ground, crying loudly.And the horse hooves of the servant at the head stepped over...

Song Wei suddenly clamped the horse's belly, pulled the reins, Deda turned around and jumped out.One person and one horse are very good at maneuvering in a small area, like a martial arts master who is empty-handed, he sneaks through the gap between the crowd and arrives at the child in an instant.Song Wei raised his hand and grabbed the opponent's horse's neck, the horse neighed and stood up with its hooves raised.Immediately, he hooked his feet on the stirrup, bent down, picked up the child and dragged him to the side.

When Song Wei got off his horse and gasped for breath, the servant of Xue's mansion who fell to the ground just got up.During the movement, the hat rolled down somewhere, Song Wei rubbed his head and looked around, and soon someone brought it up, and the crowd applauded him one after another.Song Wei waved his hands and smiled, patted the ashes on the hat, put it on again, comforted the couple who came to thank him, and led the horse to hide aside.He didn't want to have a direct confrontation with Miss Xue's family, even if Xue Sanlang had something to say, it wouldn't be a good thing.

Unexpectedly, what is afraid of will come.Before he took two steps, he heard a sharp female voice behind him: "Stop!"

Song Wei had no choice but to stop, turned around, took off her hat and bent over: "May I ask Miss what's your order?"

He was modest and courteous, Miss Xue looked down on her horse, and suddenly her face flushed.

"You are Song Miaozhi, right?"

"Don't dare, it's just a mere area."

Miss Xue looked at him for a while with a blushing face, then suddenly clapped her hands and smiled and said, "I came here specially to find you, I didn't expect to meet you just now, what a coincidence."

Song Wei's heart tightened when he heard this, and he lowered his head in a respectful manner: "I don't know what you can do for Miss?"

Miss Xue is used to showing her face in public, and regardless of the crowds around her, she pointed at Song Wei with a horse whip and said crisply: "My third brother is injured, I will take care of the execution, and I will lead the team to participate in the Double Ninth Festival. Today I came here specially to call you for the afternoon!"

Song Wei was taken aback and couldn't help but look up.Ms. Xue is very proud, she doesn't seem to be fake.Thinking of the gossip I have heard, it is said that this Miss Xue family has been like a boy since she was a child, and there is a women's shooting team under her command.Miss Xue was on the sidelines in the last match against Xue Mansion.Song Wei didn't pay attention at all, but unexpectedly she fell into someone's eyes.

With a forced smile, he said: "The young lady probably made a mistake. Song Wei is only employed by someone else, and Miss Xue's letter of challenge will be given to my proprietor, Young Master Weng Huan."

"Whatever his surname is Weng, I'm looking for you! If you lose in the Double Ninth Festival competition, you must come to Xue's mansion to be my long-term follower."

Song Wei felt a big headache.Of course, he wouldn't be so stupid as to ask what if he won, he just kept going back and forth to make excuses.

At the moment of the stalemate, a soft female voice sounded: "Young Master Song, my servant is late, and I have to wait for you for a long time."

But it was my mother who arrived.

Song Wei was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Miss Xue, I have made an appointment with a friend, so I will not accompany you." He raised his legs and went to meet my mother.

Miss Xue knows her brother's old friend.Occasionally there are entertainment parties, and my mother will also attend to add to the fun.Seeing that Song Wei ignored her because of a girl, she suddenly became angry from embarrassment, scolded, and surrounded the two of them with her servants.

Song Wei frowned and thought about how to get away, but my mother was generous and greeted the other party: "Miss Xue, I heard that your brother is not in good health, how is your recovery?" Pretentiously greeted, and then said, "I want to buy some Western Regions Items, please Song Lang to be a guide, so we will meet here. Miss Xue, if you don’t give up, why don’t you swim?” Before he finished speaking, he had already snuggled up to Song Wei’s side, with a sweet and shy look on his face.

My mother's appearance is outstanding, and many people are inquiring about it for a while.There were also people who recognized this famous prostitute in the western capital, and word spread quickly.The masses were very interested, and the onlookers became more and more energetic.

Miss Xue was so angry that her teeth were itchy, she was about to lose her mind, and she was fussing over with a girl in public.Song Wei felt something was wrong, and was about to run away with Yao Niang, when there was another commotion outside.

"Rang Rang! Quick! Rang Rang!" A group of people pushed through the crowd and squeezed in, followed by a carriage.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Xue Fan hurriedly pushed open the door: "Fourth sister! Don't be rude!" The servant helped him out and walked into the arena.Xue Xuan injured his leg, and he has been taking care of it very carefully in order to recover as soon as possible.

Seeing Yao Niang, Xue Sanlang was taken aback for a moment, but immediately regained his composure, and said to Song Wei: "Miao Zhi, Sister Sister is young, she behaves impulsively, sorry."

Song Wei shook his head, thinking to himself if he didn't leave now, when would he wait.Immediately, he got on the horse, stretched out his hand and pulled my mother onto the horse's back, and hugged her in front of her.But when he saw him riding a fine horse with a beautiful woman in his arms, he smiled casually: "Third Young Master, thank you very much!"

No more words, just slap your ass and leave.Deda carried a big beautiful woman on her back, she was extremely frightened, twisted and turned to get out of the crowd, went to the side alley with few people, and ran away.

Xue Xuan looked at Song Wei's back in a foolish way, only to feel that he was so unrestrained, so coquettish, so tempting and so seductive... Damn, why did he just run away like that!

Miss Xue has always been doted on by her family, but she never expected her elder brother to turn his elbows outwards, and he was so angry that he wanted to chase after her.Xue Xuan yelled at the servants to stop her, and the spoiled young lady became more and more angry, and whipped her head away with a whip.Xue Sanlang was furious, and ordered his men to take the lady home.It became a brother-sister battle for a while, and the crowd applauded.

Yao Niang and Song Wei, an old love and a new love, how these two get together, Third Young Master Xue has not yet figured out, but right now it is more important to keep a close eye on his sister, otherwise the Xue family will lose all face.
