Chapter 534 Chong Er is safe outside
On the other side, when Chen Lian learned that Zhao Pan'er was in danger, he ignored the case at hand and immediately went to the study to save people. However, due to He Siyi's back and forth, there was a lot of delay in the middle. When he received the news, Zhao Pan'er and the others had already left Go back to Osmanthus Alley and discuss the following matters.
Chen Lian turned back to the house anxiously, and he was relieved until he confirmed that Zhao Pan'er was safe and sound.
Gu Qianfan was away dealing with the private ship fraud case in the south of the Yangtze River, and he will return in a few days. If he knows that something happened to Zhao Pan'er, he will never forgive himself.
Because of this worry, Chen Lian decided to suppress the affairs of the Imperial City Secretary. In the next few days, he would stay close to each other, following Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang.
The so-called choosing a day is worse than hitting the sun. Zhao Pan'er gave Ouyang Xu another three days in "Night Banquet Picture", threatening him that this picture involves a big scandal in the Jiangnan officialdom. Need sundries.
Zhao Paner had made a decision long before choosing the location of the tea house. After purchasing the necessary supplies, he brought Song Yinzhang to a two-story shop on Maxing Street in Beishi.
Song Yinzhang didn't understand why Zhao Pan'er chose this place. Zhao Pan'er came to the balcony on the second floor of the tea house, as confident and calm as before, pointing to the busy street below: "There is a lot of people here, but there are many people around here." They are all bruises, blacksmith shops, herbal medicine shops, cloth shops, and grain shops. We open the tea house here, and there is no competition around, and that is the only business."
Zhao Paner described the future in high spirits. Sun Sanniang knew that she had no education, so what Zhao Paner said would be what she said.
Only Song Yinzhang, who obeyed her in everything in the past, blinked with some doubts, and after Zhao Pan'er's high-spirited talk, he asked weakly: "If this is the case, why don't others open a shop here?"
"This..." Zhao Pan'er still had a confident smile on her lips, but a hint of unhappiness flashed in her heart, and she replied lightly, "It doesn't mean we can't do it if others can't do it. It's not that simple to do business", and settled the tea house like this.
Song Yinzhang couldn't persuade him anymore, so he could only write down the matter and plan to take time to visit Mr. Zhou to ask his opinion.
Back home at night, Zhao Paner took out the accounting book and recorded the recent expenses. The rent of the tea house was 30 guan, and the tables, chairs, stools, tea sets and porcelain were a lot of expenses.
After finishing the accounts, Zhao Pan'er looked at the accounting book in her hand, rubbed the center of her brows, and said melancholy: "Money goes like running water, before the opening of the business, dozens of pens have already been spent."
Sun Sanniang thought of something and said: "By the way, the eighty taels of gold that Ouyang Xu gave you is still buried under your bed in Qiantang, so it won't be stolen, right?"
Chen Lian smiled and said: "No, Mr. Gu asked me to arrange the manpower. There are people watching at the tea house, Sister Pan'er's house, and Sister Yinzhang's house, and they can't escape!"
Zhao Pan'er was relieved when she heard the words, and asked Chen Lian to take out the big box she had buried in the south wall of the kitchen, exchange the gold, silver, jewelry, house deed and land deed into flying money, and send those calligraphy and paintings to Tokyo.
Chen Lian curiously asked her whose small box belonged to her.
"That's from the introduction." Zhao Pan'er glanced at Song Yinzhang, who was stunned for a moment, and Zhao Pan'er said again, "Your money is all right. I insisted not to give it to you at that time, because I was afraid that you and Zhou She .”
"I understand, I was ignorant at that time."
When Song Yinzhang heard Zhao Paner mention Zhou She again, he bowed his head and apologized to Zhao Paner both moved and guilty.
It never occurred to me that Zhao Pan'er was just an accountant at the beginning, and received a fixed salary every month. He could neither get rewards from high-ranking officials like her, nor could he be invited by rich merchants and rich people with her. Where do house deeds, land deeds, gold, silver and jewelry come from?
Zhao Pan'er saw Song Yinzhang bowing his head towards her, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and comforted him gently, "It's okay, it's all over, if you think it's safe to keep the money by your side, you can also ask Chen Lian's friend to help you bring it here."
"Sister Pan'er's teahouse is just about to start, so it would be a good thing to have more capital." Song Yinzhang was more and more moved, looked at Zhao Pan'er with a sincere face, and said softly, "Then please exchange all the trouble~~"
"Miss Si Teng's tea house seems to be remodeled soon, right? You don't want to keep some, what if she is short of money?" Zhao Pan'er said earnestly.
Song Yinzhang hesitated for a while, but shook his head and said, "Probably not? I trust Mr. Zhou."
噢噌噌~咟~! clang clang clang clang~~~
A remote house in the south of the city.
Zhou Ji glanced at the grass stage team that was still rehearsing, went straight to Si Teng and sat down, turned his head and said, "The rehearsal is almost done now, didn't the introduction say that Miss Pan'er is also preparing to open a tea house? Don't see you in a hurry?"
"Why are you in a hurry?" Si Teng took his eyes back unhurriedly, with a calm expression, and wrote lightly: "I didn't open the teahouse to compete with others. What does it matter to me what she does?"
Zhou Ji couldn't help laughing and said: "I think she really wants to compete with you."
Si Teng's eyes were cold, and he revealed the confidence in his bones calmly, "The bottom level of a person's confidence is self-esteem, the middle level is personal ability, and the top level is mainly self-affirmation obtained from interpersonal interaction. If she wants to satisfy her vanity fantasy from me, then It was a big mistake."
Among the interludes of the gongs, the palace gate on the central axis of the Royal Road opened, and Ouyang Xu, the champion of the new department, and the second-best three followed the imperial **** into the palace to face the saint.
When Ouyang Xu received the order last night, he inquired about the major case that happened in Qiantang from the **** Xuanzhi. Combining with Zhao Paner's previous disclosure of the case involved in "The Night Banquet", Ouyang Xu frowned, not understanding Zhao Paner's relationship with this big and powerful man. What's the matter? Why do you have to get involved in such a dangerous incident.
If this case implicates the entire Jiangnan officialdom, no matter what the outcome is, it will do Zhao Paner all harm and no benefit.
Ouyang Xu wanted to help her, but he was powerless.
Gao Hu is more domineering than his daughter, and Ouyang Xu could deal with her at first, but because of Zhao Pan'er's arrival, he had to be distracted and worried.
Especially these days.
Ouyang Xu was in fear all day long, lest Gao Hu and his daughter would learn of Zhao Pan'er's existence from the Kyoto government office.
Now that the three-day period is approaching again, Ouyang Xu has no time to drive Zhao Pan'er out of Bianjing, stop being involved in the big Jiangnan case, and get out of the quagmire of Bianjing.
I can only rack my brains to find other ways, and seek a chance of life in the cracks.
"Salute."
While in a daze, Ouyang Xu suddenly heard the voice of the father-in-law leading the way, noticed that everyone stopped to salute, and hurriedly bowed forward.
Looking from a distance, a middle-aged Taoist priest with a sense of demeanor is riding a sedan chair in the imperial palace, and the old **** passes by in front of him.
Leading Father-in-Law stopped the three of them, and only reminded the immortal master after he had gone far away, "This is Immortal Master Lin of the Heavenly Heavenly Way. He is highly respected by His Majesty, and he specially bestows a sedan chair in the palace."
Ouyang Xu looked away from the Taoist who had gone far away, and with a thought, he suddenly thought that Gao Hu regarded himself as a noble person, often regarded himself as a clean stream, and looked down on those who sycophant and flatter the superior.
The last time he toasted another adult, he was criticized by Gao Gu just because he bent too deeply. If he took advantage of today's opportunity, he might be able to find another way to escape the control of the Gao family.
A young man in a green official uniform came out from inside.
Ouyang Xu vaguely heard just now that this person was also born in the imperial examination, but entered the Imperial City Division. He just solved a major case in the south of the Yangtze River, and was named the fifth-rank Xishangmen Envoy and the Deputy Envoy of the Imperial City Division.
Ouyang Xu couldn't help but glanced sideways at that person, Gu Qianfan noticed Ouyang Xu's gaze, and turned his head to look at him as well.
"Xuan Jinke First Grade Scholars, Shen Jiayan and three other people have an audience!"
The voice of the **** delivering the order yesterday came from the hall, Ouyang Xu hurriedly dressed and walked inside.
Kneel down and salute, and shout long live three times.
When Zhenzong Zhao Heng asked what the three of them usually have in their spare time, the number one scholar replied that he knew a thing or two about the king, his ministers and envoys, and the art of discriminating between yellow and yellow.
When it was Ouyang Xu's turn, Ouyang Xu replied that he didn't like anything on weekdays, but he liked to recite the Three Thousand Canon and study the art of Huang Lao.
Zhao Heng was a little surprised when he heard this, "Then tell me, what is your favorite scripture?"
"This minister likes the Great Cave Jade Sutra and the Taishang Xuandu Miaoben Qingjing Body and Mind Sutra the most." Ouyang Xu had already made a prediction outside the hall, and replied accordingly: "Besides, I still remember that the official family enshrined Zen On the eve of the pre-sacrifice, the fog and wind were strong, and candles were not allowed, and the wind stopped, the sky was clear, and the candle flame was still."
Zhao Heng recalled the day when he was enshrined in Zen, and he was full of emotions. He also used the reason that the newly built Ziji Palace in Xijing lacked an imperial edict to examine Ouyang Xu.
Ouyang Xu is flattering and flattering, with no literati style.
The number one scholar and the second place next to him looked quite contemptuous, but when they heard His Majesty canonize him as the Deputy Envoy of Zuolang Ziji Palace, and went to Xijing instead of the official family to invite Master Baoyi to come out of the mountain, the contempt on his face But it turned into ridicule and irony.
This so-called work Zuo Lang Ziji Gongjiao Deputy Envoy seems to have a great reputation and is of the eighth rank.
But in fact, he is a false-job manager who manages Taoist temples, and he has to leave Bianjing and go to Xijing, which is not worth the candle.
However, to the surprise of the two of them, Ouyang Xu didn't show any disappointment on his face. Instead, he seemed relieved, "I will not disgrace my life! Since I am an angel, I hope that I will leave Beijing to take up my post tomorrow! I will serve as a dog and horse for the official family." work."
Ouyang Xu's attitude even drew Zhao Heng's compliments.
It’s just a vain job to manage the Taoist temple, so why leave Beijing in such a hurry to take up the post?
The champion and the second place looked at each other, completely unable to understand.
as expected.
Knowing Ouyang Xu's performance when facing the saint, Gao Hu was furious as he expected, Ouyang Xu didn't dare to show any abnormality, let Gao Hu knock him down with a slap, stood up and knelt straight, " Father-in-law calm down."
"Don't call me father-in-law!" Gao Hu said angrily.
Ouyang Xu deliberately stimulated Gao Hu with his vain position as the eighth rank, all for the sake of marrying Hui Niang.
As soon as this remark came out, Gao Hu was completely disappointed with Ouyang Xu, walked away, and said angrily: "My Gao family can't afford a capable minister like you who borrows ghosts and gods to advance, so your marriage with Huier is over!"
"Dad! You can't do this! I will marry him, and I will only marry him!"
Miss Gao, who was eavesdropping outside, rushed into the hall and begged her father to take back her life, but Gao Hu made up her mind, and immediately ordered someone to take Gao Hui away and drive Ouyang Xu out of the house.
Ouyang Xu left Beijing overnight, leaving behind a personal servant to take care of Uncle De.
Ouyang Xu knew that although Ms. Gao was willful and reckless, she was sincere to herself. In order to save a way out for returning to Beijing in the future, Ouyang Xu repeatedly told Uncle De that he must often walk outside the gate of Gao's mansion and let Ms. Gao see him. to him.
If Miss Gao asks, just say that the old servant wants to visit her for the master.
Early the next morning, Chen Lian, who received the news, hurried to Osmanthus Alley and told Zhao Paner and the others.
Even though Song Yinzhang had already teased Zhao Paner about this official title, but when Zhou Ji was instructing the troupe musicians, he really lost his memory and couldn't figure out what it was.
"Gonggongguan? No, it seems to be Gongguangong?"
While eating at noon, Song Yinzhang talked about this matter, snapped his fingers, and said with a blank face, "Guan Gonggong? Guan Guanguan?"
"Are you arranging and combining?" Zhou Ji couldn't help laughing.
"What is a permutation and combination?" Song Yinzhang asked cutely, looking like a curious baby.
"It's nothing~ it's not important." Zhou Ji waved his hand and sighed softly, "Ouyang Xu is pretty smart, but it's easy to leave Beijing and difficult to return to Beijing, since Miss Paner has decided to stay in the capital, she will be able to wait for him sooner or later. "
"Hmm~ Sister Pan'er said the same thing!" Song Yinzhang listened to Zhou Ji's analysis and compared what Zhao Pan'er said, blinking cutely and adoringly.
Zhou Ji enjoyed Song Yinzhang's adoring eyes, coughed lightly, and said with a straight face: "By the way, how is the tea house over there, Miss Pan'er?"
"The layout is almost ready, and it will open in a few days."
Song Yinzhang hesitated and said, "It's just that Mr. Pan didn't seem to care much about what the young master told me last time. She still insists on the style of 'country and wild fun', and does not agree to replace ordered tea with loose tea."
Zhao Paner acted swiftly and resolutely. It took less than ten days from the selection of the store to the opening of the store. During this period, she didn't even do any research, and directly opened a tea house.
Zhou Ji rubbed the center of his eyebrows, as if he saw some entrepreneurs who worked hard to save hundreds of thousands, did not do market research, and joined the milk tea shop on the spur of the moment.
The capital is not much, and you dare to be so reckless, which is almost the same as gambling your life.
On the first day of June, 'Zhao's Tea House' officially opened.
On the same day, Zhao Paner specially invited Zhou Ji and Si Teng Hongkui to come to join in the show. Song Yinzhang sat in the crowd, holding the pipa horizontally and playing the relaxed and cheerful pipa music.
Joining the excitement, the teahouse was soon full of guests, and Zhao Paner and Sun Sanniang also began to get busy everywhere.
(When I took a closer look at the film, the more I looked at it, the more I felt that Ouyang Xu was "miserable". Zhao Pan'er and the others laughed at Ouyang Xu's flattery and slapped on the horse's leg. In fact, what he wanted was for the Gao family to voluntarily withdraw the engagement, and then avoid Zhao Pan'er and not let her Getting Ye Yantu involved in the big Jiangnan case is the limit of what an ordinary person can do in the quagmire.)
