"Hey, slow down, things are expensive," Wang Muze stood at the door directing people to move things carefully, "Put them all away, if it breaks, I'm the only one to ask you."

Yan Qi rolled his eyes, picked up the ax and chopped all the discarded furniture into firewood, thinking to himself, with your body, who else can ask?

The gate and plaque of the new house have been changed, but the plaque still has the previous name - Wen Le Ning Mansion.

A few days ago, early in the morning, Wang Muze was picked up by Shen Wenxuan to clean up the house before he woke up.

The entire Wujinyuan consists of an outer courtyard and four inner courtyards. The inner courtyard has main rooms, east and west wing rooms, side rooms, and inverted rooms for servants. It can be converted into a stable.

The two front and back gardens on the west side are separated by resting guest rooms and several pavilions, and there is a small lake connecting them. Surrounding the garden is a full circle of verandas.

Wang Muze looked while walking, and when he found the parts that needed to be repaired, he wrote them down on a piece of paper, and said in amazement: "Okay, old man Wen, why is your ancestral house worth 6000 taels?"

"More than that," Old Man Wen snorted triumphantly, "In this location, I have to add another thousand."

Wang Muze nodded in agreement with him, and said, "It's just a bit too broken."

The withered grass under the porch grows higher than the guardrail. According to his current statistics, there are dozens of houses in several yards, and there are more than a dozen of them with roof problems. Also collapsed.

Not to mention the front and back gardens on the west side, the lake is dry and the mountains are down, the grass is growing, and the walls are ruined. Only the pavilion in the center of the lake is left there, and you can vaguely see the exquisite and beautiful layout of the previous flower scene.

Old man Wen glanced back at him.

Wang Muze smiled "hehe" not to be afraid of him, broke the spider web in front of him with a pen, and asked, "Since this is your ancestral house, why don't you ask someone to take care of it? You clean it every year, weed and so on, and you don't care about it." As for breaking like this."

"Trust someone to take care of you? Who can you trust to take care of them?" Old man Wen rolled his eyes, his face showing a bit of despair, "My family's heirs are weak, and I'm the only one in my generation. When I was young, I couldn't do anything. , only caring about romance, not building a family business, and not even leaving behind a descendant."

In front is the ancestral hall, except for the key at the gate, he still keeps the keys of the other rooms. He has lost the keys of other rooms. At this time, he can only rely on Zhao Er, who is behind him, to pick the lock to open it.

On the altar is the tablet of the ancestors of the Wen family. Zhao Er and Wang Muze looked at each other, stepped back and left, leaving the old man here alone for a while.

"Work and work."

Wang Muze patted the dog's tail grass in his mouth and said: "What are you doing? Playing handsome? Hurry up and take people like you to get rid of the grass first."

You let me get rid of me?Wouldn't that be embarrassing.

Yan Qi rolled his eyes, turned around and continued to stand still with the dog's tail in his mouth.

"You don't want to do it, right? Fine," Wang Muze took out a lot of work written down on the paper just now, "Anyway, you are going to do the weeding and river channeling. I will be the supervisor of the house repair and the future home Steward, you have the right to report to the young master that you are passively sabotaging—”

"Who?" Yan Qi turned around, "Which son are you telling?"

"Of course it's Shen Wenxuan, Young Master Shen, respectfully." Because their combination is a bit too special, it doesn't feel right to call Mr. Shen Wenxuan, Master, Patriarch, etc. After much deliberation, "Young Master" is more appropriate, then huh Jiao is the little boy.

"There is also the issue of the moon silver between you and your brothers." Wang Muze looked at him with a troubled face, and glanced at Yan Yan, "How much should I give?"

He didn't feel sleepy when he heard Yin Zi's words. He immediately took the dog's tail grass out of his mouth and stood upright: "This...Of course, I will give as much as I can, and I came here voluntarily."

"Tsk, it depends on your own performance." Wang Muze turned his hands away and walked around him.

Yan Qi stared at his back and took a deep breath, picked up a sickle and looked at the brother behind him. Before he could speak, a dozen people had already jumped into the grass with the sickle and began to cut. The movements were swift.

Yan Qi: "..." As expected of his brother, they have a tacit understanding with him.

Coughing reservedly, he jumped down the corridor and began to mow the grass. The number of brothers behind him was not complete. A few injured on the top of the cliff are still being treated by Dr. Zhao. These few will not be out of moon silver, right?no!He needs to cut harder!

Zhao Er finished picking the locks of all the rooms, turned around and saw Yan Qi mowing the grass with a group of brothers behind him, he couldn't help but think of when he took his brothers to collect protection fees in Anhe County, he was full of emotions in his heart, picked up a He took the remaining sickle in the corridor to Yan Qi's side, bent down and started cutting too.

Yan Qi turned his head to look at him.

Zhao Er: "You're welcome."

Yan Qi: "..." Thank you, you are sick.

Wang Muze invited more than [-] people to clean out the rotten furniture and curtains in the room, wipe them clean inside and out, replace all the broken doors and windows with new ones, hired a bricklayer to repair the roof, and the walls of the whole house All repainted.

The old man Wen in the ancestral hall did not allow outsiders to touch it. He wiped the memorial tablets one by one, cleaned up the altar, and placed new incense sticks.

The most difficult thing to do was the garden. All the precious flowers and plants that had been planted had withered, and only a dozen or so trees were still alive. The rest were pulled out and new flowers and plants were planted.

That lake is connected to a tributary of the Yuejiang River, and it has running water, but no one has been in charge of it before, and the river channel was blocked. Wang Muze invited masters who are proficient in this field, and asked him to lead these people to dig the river channel again. Pass.

I have been so busy for five or six days.

Shen Wenxuan stood on the pier where he landed a few days ago, glanced around, and caught a glimpse of a person wearing an official uniform who was patrolling in the distance. It should be the water transport envoy. When he turned his gaze, he saw a person in front of him again. He was in charge of the porter carrying the goods, and walked over to him with his hands behind his back.

This man looked like a middle-aged man, with a strong physique and a simple and honest face, with shrewd eyes and a sweat scarf tied on his forehead.

"Are you the helmsman here?" Shen Wenxuan asked, and looked back at the passing ships. There are quite a few people loading and unloading here every day. There are dozens of porters, if not a hundred. I've seen it at the station.

Helmsman Yang Shun was holding a few thick booklets, earnestly urging the porter to move things, but in fact he kept looking at the water transport envoy in the distance, waiting for him to come to check the list of goods, when he heard Shen Wenxuan's question, he couldn't help but feel A little impatient: "What's the matter?"

Shen Wenxuan turned around: "Can you transport spices here?"

"Unlucky, if you want spices, go to the Baixiang Pavilion in the city, they sell them there."

Shen Wenxuan laughed a few times and said, "I smelled pepper in your place a few days ago."

Yang Shun turned his head to look at him, frowned, and seemed to be in a bad mood, and said, "What's wrong with the shipment? It's someone else's product, and I just helped someone move it down, why? You still want to buy it from me?" "

"It's not just to help people move down, but to help them deliver it all the way?" Shen Wenxuan looked down at him and said, with a polite, cunning, businessman-like smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The porter over there was still a cargo transporter when I met him at the post station. He unloaded the cargo from the ship a few days ago and handed it over to you. It seems that you not only occupy the pier, but also help people in the cargo transport business. "

He noticed these people when he smelled pepper a few days ago. If he can get low-priced spices from here, he can greatly reduce the cost of hot pot.

Hearing his words, Yang Shun was frightened into a cold sweat. He quickly glanced at the Water Transport Envoy who was still some distance away, grabbed Shen Wenxuan's arm and pulled him into the shed beside him.

"Brother, it's not easy for us to eat together. You, you let me go today, and I promise I will never do this kind of thing again." Yang Shun's face was a little pale, and he quietly pulled down the purse plug at his waist Into Shen Wenxuan's hands.

If it was normal, he wouldn't be so afraid. He would have ordered someone to drag this boy who suddenly appeared into the alley and beat him up, and then he would give some money to threaten him. Boss Yang has plenty of people in Pingle. I'm not afraid of his words, but today is not a coincidence, the water transport envoy will come to inspect, if he knows that he is privately transporting goods...

Yang Shun swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stared at Shen Wenxuan.

Seeing his reaction, Shen Wenxuan knew in his heart that the helmsman could not do water transportation by himself, and if he was really capable, it would not be too convenient for him to guard himself.

But he pretended not to understand. After all, we still need to cooperate in the future, and we can't destroy the relationship.

"Why do you say that? I came to you just to ask you to deliver the goods." Shen Wenxuan threw the money bag to him.

Yang Shun hurriedly put away the money bag, glanced at the water transport envoy who was getting closer and closer, and said anxiously: "Don't talk about whether to transport goods or not, hurry up, I won't do it!"

"Why?" Shen Wenxuan asked in confusion, the wind and rain under his feet were as calm as a mountain.

Yang Shun: "Oh, it's just that the plank road doesn't accept cash? One person charges 30 taels, which is several times more powerful than the previous bandits. Who can afford this, so I quit, you hurry up!"

"Oh, if that's the case, you don't have to worry about it. It's just that you will be charged 30 taels this time. In the future, you will be charged according to the weight of the goods, which will be cheaper than bandits, and—" Shen Wenxuan looked at Yang Shun and said, "I am Master of this road, in the future your people will not be charged money when crossing this road."

Yang Shun was stunned for a moment, and looked Shen Wenxuan up and down: "You—"

"I want spices, a lot of spices," Shen Wenxuan interrupted him, "It's bigger than Baixiang Pavilion, but I don't have the source."

Yang Shun frowned: "You mean to buy directly from Baixiang Pavilion's supply source? That is the place controlled by incense merchants, and Baixiang Pavilion is just one of their shops, and it is absolutely impossible to supply you. You want spices You have to find the source yourself."

Shen Wenxuan raised his eyebrows: "Nothing is impossible, you should think about it again, helmsman, and come to me after you think it over. I live in Zuixiao Restaurant."

After speaking, he came out of the shed and passed by the water transport envoy who was only a few steps away from the shed.

The water transport envoy looked back at him, then turned to look at Yang Shun again.Yang Shun saluted with a stiff smile, walked a few steps forward and handed him the brochure in his hand to check, quietly glanced at Shen Wenxuan's back, feeling lingering fear in his heart.

Shen Wenxuan was in a good mood. After squatting for a few days, he ran into the Water Transport Envoy's inspection. He thought he needed to write a letter of complaint to the Water Transport Envoy to lure him over.

The Wen family's ancestral home.

"Come slowly, come slowly."

Dr. Zhao happily led the people to move the newly-made medicine cabinet into the yard he chose. The name of the yard was still named by him, and it was called Yaoxuan Pavilion. Old man Wen lived next to him, and he was carefully taking care of his box. Take it out and put it on a shelf.

"Old Man Wen!"

The old man Wen shook his hand and almost dropped the jade ornaments in front of him. He suddenly became furious, and looked back at Dr. Zhao who was not conscious at all: "What are you doing!"

"Hey you," Dr. Zhao wrinkled his steamed bun face, and put the medicinal wine in his hand on his table, "We will be a family from now on, I greet you and make you yell, let's go."

"Cough! Cough!"

Doctor Zhao stopped.

Old man Wen put down the jade ornament in his hand, turned his hands behind his back and said with a stiff face: "It's not time for dinner yet, how about a game of chess?"

Dr. Zhao couldn't help laughing once or twice: "You are awkward."

People are still coming to the gate. These are the things that old man Wen brought Wang Muze to buy a few days ago. He traveled almost half of the prefecture. Which one has the best mahogany furniture, which one has the most elegant porcelain vases and jade wares? Whichever bedding is the softest, whichever calligraphy and painting, hanging screen, silk, felt, pen, ink, paper and inkstone are all selected and bought.

Wang Muze instructed people not to mess things up, and his hands and feet were trembling from the busyness.

"The loquat tree was planted in the innermost Hanxuan courtyard, the dog kennel was also put in, the plum tree was planted in the plum grove in the back garden, this screen was put in the storeroom, and the porcelain vases were carefully..."

Speaking of fewer people waiting for him to greet him, he poked his back, and Wang Muze turned to look at him.

Yan Qi: "Then what, this job is done very well, how much is Yueyin's business?"

Wang Muze: "Why do you want Yueyin? Is there something wrong?"

"...It's fine, but—"

"Let's talk about it later," Wang Muze interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "I don't have Yueyin yet."

From the beginning: "..."

grass!Was he tricked?

Wang Muze settled the accounts in his heart. Shen Wenxuan gave him a total of 3000 taels for this renovation, 1000 taels were used for the renovation, and the remaining 2000 taels were put on the public account. It's the young master, and the calculation is really accurate. It is impossible to save money if old man Wen takes him to buy things.

Suddenly a white shadow flashed in front of his eyes, Wang Muze took a closer look, it was a dog leftover, running happily, and habitually glanced behind it, but he didn't see the big and small.

Eh?

"Gou Sheng seems to have been having fun here all afternoon, after running around the front yard and the back yard." Zhao Er said, gradually turning the corner in his mind, tilting his head and looking at Wang Muze: "Where is Ping'er and that kid?" ?”

"Where's the little boy?"

On Xishui Street, a few streets away from Fuping Street.

"Ping'er, Brother Wen, what did you promise me before you came out?" Jiao Shihan held each other and wandered aimlessly on the street.

Ping'er held a pottery ring ball in his hand and danced along with it while shaking it. He looked at the surrounding vendors with great interest, while Wen Ge'er was holding a nine-link study in his hand.

"I'll go back after only half an hour." Ping'er replied.

Jiao Shihan sighed: "But we have been out for two hours."

At first, I stayed in Tingshulou for half an hour, then I went to Shengping Theater for half an hour, and then said I was hungry, so I went to Suxinzhai to eat dim sum for half an hour, and now it is another half hour for wandering in the street. hour.

"Let's go back." Jiao Shihan stopped, squatted down and reasoned with the two cubs, "It's almost dinner time, if you don't go back they will find out."

Ping'er was a little displeased, and glanced at Wen Ge'er, he untied Jiu Lianhuan a few times with his hands, and noticed that his eyes were looking back, looking at that look, there was no intention of helping him at all.

Ping'er: "..." Bai Xia, I called you out to play!

"I want to eat candied haws, let's go back after buying candied haws." Ping'er said pitifully, this would be his last joy.

Brother Wen looked at him and thought for a while, then said, "I want it too."

Jiao Shihan said helplessly, "Okay."

Just in front of them, Jiao Shihan pulled them over and asked, "Which one do you want, Ping'er or Brother Wen?"

Ping'er opened his eyes wide and carefully selected for a while, then picked off one that he thought was big, and Brother Wen took one at random.

Jiao Shihan was about to pay the money when a voice suddenly approached from behind: "Little friend, what are you doing?"

Jiao Shihan shuddered, and slowly turned her head to find that it was indeed Ah Xuan, pulling down the hood on her head guiltily and pursing her lips into a smile.

The two cubs immediately evaded Dafa and hid behind Jiao Shihan.

Shen Wenxuan glanced at the two of them, and then looked at Jiao Shihan. There was no sign of dog leftovers around, so he deliberately said with a sullen face, "It's so courageous to sneak out without any dog ​​leftover."

"It's not that I don't want to bring it, it's that the dog is too excited to catch it in the new home." Jiao Shihan defended in a low voice, gently hooking Shen Wenxuan's clothes with his fingers, and getting closer to him.

Alas, there is no way to be so spoiled.

Seeing him, Shen Wenxuan couldn't help laughing, took another one from the candied haws rack and handed it to him, and after paying the money, he took his hand and turned to walk back.

Gousheng, a silly dog, didn't follow him, and went back to knock it on the head.

Jiao Shihan glanced back, Brother Wen took Ping'er's hand and trotted a few steps to the other side of Shen Wenxuan, stretched out his hand to hold his hand and walked together.

He decided to recognize this man as his brother-in-law's husband. Although the lintel is lower, he has a good temper. He is not angry when the family's two sons go out without permission. family law.

Shen Wenxuan glanced at the two cubs next to him, and held Brother Wen's hand back, thinking that it was not easy for these two to take the initiative to get close to him.

Jiao Shihan bit off half of the hawthorn and couldn't help laughing, and moved a little closer to Shen Wenxuan. Shen Wenxuan noticed it from the corner of his eye, and silently changed it into an hug, wrapping his arms around his waist.

Under the warm orange light on the horizon, there are four shadows close together. In front of them, Wang Muze, Zhao Er, Old Man Wen and Dr. Zhao are all standing on the steps of the mansion and waiting. Gou Sheng rushed out from behind the four of them. Running in the direction of their side, this silly dog ​​finally remembered that he was ashamed.
