The fragrance of flowers passing through the Red Chamber

"Second Master, this is just the beginning. After news of the jade heart embedded in the stone that Prince Beijing sold to us spread, our business will flourish even more." Shopkeeper Huang stroked his goatee and looked at it with a smile. With an excited and triumphant look, Xiren said confidently.

"Yes, our business will get better and better." Xiren pulled Shopkeeper Huang, so excited that he almost picked him up and turned around on the spot a few times.

"Second brother, come here, let's talk inside." Jiang Yuhan looked at Xiren's excited look with cold eyes, and said lightly.After finishing speaking, he turned and walked into the room.

Xiren blinked, not understanding why Jiang Yuhan kept a cold face?Isn't he happy to make money?Turning around to look at shopkeeper Huang, shopkeeper Huang gave Xi Ren a half-smile look, then turned around, pretending to appraise the stones he bought, and put Xi Ren aside, ignoring him.

"Just go, can he still eat me?" Xiren muttered, moving step by step, slowly walking towards the inside.

"Hurry up." Jiang Yuhan's cold voice came from inside, Xiren's body paused, and he immediately quickened his pace and rushed inside.

Shopkeeper Huang turned around with a smile when Xiren rushed inside, staring at the still shaking curtain, stroking his goatee, squinting his eyes, with a very complicated expression on his face.

"Ma'am, you..." Jiang Yuhan hesitated to speak, looking at the inexplicable attacking face in the inner room.

"Say what you have to say!" Xi Ren said very strongly, but he was uneasy in his heart.Looking at Jiang Yuhan's solemn expression, she felt completely at a loss.

"Congratulations, you made your first voice!" After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Yuhan still couldn't utter the words of reprimand.

The attacker breathed a sigh of relief.It turned out to be to congratulate me, ahem, I was shocked!She couldn't help staring at Jiang Yuhan complainingly, and said: "Jiang Yuhan, please finish speaking in one sitting, don't hesitate, it makes me think I did something wrong."

"I remember." Jiang Yuhan replied with a wry smile.Obviously he wanted to question her, why did she blame him in the end? "Aren't you going home tonight?" Looking at Xiren's beautiful face, Jiang Yuhan asked tentatively. For the past few days, Xiren and the two shopkeepers have been nesting in the pawn shop, busy with betting on stones.In order to be able to see her at any time, he also lived there, enduring the pain of living together but not being able to share the same bed every day.Looking at the happy and busy Xiren, he really wanted to ask her: Is doing business so attractive to her?A woman, as long as she is a good wife, why should she be so strong and want to compete with men in the man's territory?

"Go home? What are you doing? Things in the pawn shop haven't been done yet, so I can't go back." Xi Ren said stupidly with his eyes wide open.To be honest, she is enjoying it now, and she doesn't want to go back to that so-called home at all.

"Then you should also take a good rest! In the past two days, for the sake of business, you only sleep for two hours a day. Most of the time, you are not studying with shopkeeper Huang, or formulating some business strategies. You even put aside the business of the silk shop. Are you tired?" Jiang Yuhan looked at Xiren's thinning face distressedly and said.

"It's okay, I'm fine at all. I'm in good spirits now!" Xiren said happily.Unexpectedly, when she came here, she could still give full play to her strengths and earn the first pot of gold in her life. It's really "planting flowers on purpose but not blooming, but unintentionally planting willows and willows to make shade." Ah!hehe!

"You don't..."

"Master, Second Master, come and help!" Jiang Yuhan was about to persuade Xiren not to be too aggressive, when Shopkeeper Huang hurried in from outside, pulled the two of them up, and ran outside.

"Master, what's the matter? What needs our help?" Xiren, a curious baby, naturally asked first.

Jiang Yuhan looked at shopkeeper Huang puzzledly, waiting for his answer.

"A lot of people came outside, all of them came to redeem the stones they sold. I can't do it alone, so please help me." Shopkeeper Huang replied out of breath while pulling the two people to run. .

"Could it be that they all heard that there is jade heart in King Jing's stone?" Xiren boldly guessed.

"Well. Now it is rumored outside that most of the stones bought through our pawn shop are filled with jade, so everyone has come to redeem the stones they sell, wanting to see if there is jade in them." Shopkeeper Huang didn't forget to stroke his goatee while running, and said with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Huang, don't run away, we are here." Jiang Yuhan saw the place, but shopkeeper Huang still ran forward and hurriedly reminded.

"Hehe! The old man is so happy that he is confused." Hearing this, shopkeeper Huang turned his head and saw that indeed, they ran past.Embarrassed, he turned back and made fun of himself.

"Master, are you sometimes confused?" Xiren also made fun of shopkeeper Huang.

"Poor mouth!" Patting Xiren on the shoulder, shopkeeper Huang said reproachfully, "If you don't come to help, the guys are all busy." Saying this, he joined the busy ranks of the guys.

Xi Ren and Jiang Yuhan obediently joined in the busy work.

"Hoo hoo, I'm exhausted!" Finally, a busy day passed.Xiren dragged his tired body back to his residence, sat down on the kang, beat his sore legs, and said in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Thank you!" Jiang Yuhan also sat on the soft couch, knocking on her legs, and said with a tired face.

"Master, second master, come, soak your feet and relieve your fatigue." Fang'er obediently brought a pot of hot water and put it in front of Xiren's kang.

"Fang'er, where's my hot water?" Jiang Yuhan looked at Fang'er who was eagerly serving Xiren with a smile, and asked deliberately.

"I, I'll serve it right away." Fang'er blushed, and ran out in a hurry, forgetting to wash Xiren's feet.

"Hehe, don't scare Fang'er." Xiren said with a smile.Her feet have been dipped in hot water, so hot!The water was so hot that Xiren almost pulled his feet back.However, the tired feet quickly adapted to the temperature of the water, and a comfortable feeling emerged spontaneously, with a satisfied expression on Xiren's face.

The door of the room opened again, and Fang'er walked in with a basin of water in his hand.

"Master, this is your water. Fang'er will wash your feet." Fang'er said, put the water in front of the soft couch, and washed it for Jiang Yuhan.

After a while, Fang'er finished Jiang Yuhan's work, poured out the water, and turned to Xi Ren, wanting to wash Xi Ren's feet.

"Wait, I'll do it myself, you go and spread the quilt for Jiang Yuhan first." Xiren dodged, refusing to let Fang'er wash my feet.She doesn't have the habit of letting others serve her.

"But..." Fang'er half-kneeled in front of Xiren hesitantly, looking at her suspiciously.

"Come on, hurry up." Xiren shouted with a straight face, pretending to be angry.

Fang'er was taken aback for a moment, then walked away in frustration.

"Really, I'm not a rich lady." Xiren muttered, kicking the water with her feet, although it was still warm, but the comfort was gone, so she called out: "Fang'er, don't be too busy Spread the quilt, come, pour the water."

When Fang'er heard Xiren's call, her little face immediately turned bright, and she ran over, picked up the basin of water, and left the room.

"This Fang'er is loyal to you!" Jiang Yuhan said with a smile.

"Hey! Are you envious?" Xiren raised his head triumphantly and said, squinting at Jiang Yuhan.

"Envy." Jiang Yuhan liked Xiren's smug expression very much, and felt that such a domineering woman was the one with true temperament.In this society where everyone is in danger and intrigues, she is a clear stream, people can't help but want to get close to, even possess.

"You know the goods!" Hearing Jiang Yuhan's answer, Xiren was even more proud, his eyes were shining brightly, and the joy and pride that came from his heart were beyond words.

"Knock button." There was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Jiang Yuhan asked loudly.At this time, who else will come?

The attacker also looked at the door strangely.

"Shopkeeper Huang, why are you outside the door, go in quickly." Fang'er's voice came from outside the door, and the door opened immediately, shopkeeper Huang was in front, and Fang'er was behind, and the two walked in.

"Master, it's so late, what do you want?" Xiren asked curiously, feeling suddenly uneasy.Could it be that there are some obstacles?

"Yes, shopkeeper Huang, it's getting late, why did you come?" Jiang Yuhan also asked with a frown, looking at Xi Ren's trousers that had not been put down, feeling a trace of displeasure welling up in her heart.

"Don't worry, the old man is just here to report today's results." Shopkeeper Huang said with a smile, stroking his goatee.He saw the expressions of the two of them one by one, and his smile deepened.

"Today's results? Tell me quickly." Xiren was very concerned about today's results, but because it was too late, it was not easy to find shopkeeper Huang who had also worked hard all day, so she was patient and wanted to Wait until tomorrow.

"Back to the two masters, today, the customer redeemed 492 yuan of stones, and the ransom was 4920 taels. Among them, we paid the guest 2960 taels in the honor of buying it, and made a net profit of 2960 taels." Shopkeeper Huang reported in detail, his face flickering from time to time. smiling.

"The profit is only 2960 taels, which is still too little." Xiren said greedily. 2960 taels, not enough to dissolve one-ninth of the jade heart.Earn so little!

"My second master, you don't know the sufferings of the people. Do you know that a mere five taels of silver is enough for ordinary people to spend for a year. How much time our profit today is enough for them to live on, sir, please calculate carefully." Huang The shopkeeper kept stroking his goatee and shaking his head.

"Oh." Xiren was ashamed by Shopkeeper Huang's words, lowered her head, and confessed her arrogance.

"Shopkeeper Huang, don't talk about it. Brother She didn't mean that. By the way, if this continues, how much can we make from betting on stones?" Hastily smoothed things over.

"A few days ago, we collected a total of 3103 stones, all of which contained jade. Today, these hundreds of pieces are just throwing bricks to attract jade. Starting tomorrow, we will no longer buy, but wait for customers to redeem them. However, the stone's The redemption price will increase by 100 taels a day, and I think that if all the stones are redeemed, we will earn more than 30 taels of profit." The shopkeeper Huang made a rough calculation and replied.
