Chapter 503: The Cannon Fodder Cousin of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination Paper (25) (Additional update with a spotless heart~)
On this day, the clerk came to tell him that Xu's perfume had arrived, and servants from various provinces lined up at the door of the shop.
The shopkeeper didn’t believe in evil and ran to see it himself. He didn’t expect that it was really like this.
He couldn't figure it out: "What's so good about this perfume?"
After thinking for a moment, he ordered the waiter: "Quick! Sneak into the queue and grab a bottle of perfume for your boss. If Zhang asks you which house you are from, be smart and forget about Liao Ji and just say...buy it for your master." It’s for my wife.”
"Why!"
The guy responded and ran to line up.
But while lining up, he noticed something was wrong:
“Excuse me, why do you guys have wooden signs in your hands?”
He found that the ladies in front and behind him all held wooden number plates in their hands.
"Ah? Are you asking about this?" said the woman in front of him, "This is the number plate for buying perfume! The shopkeeper saw us old slaves running to the shop every day to see if the perfume had arrived, so he gave us this number plate." As soon as the perfume arrives, someone will be sent to the mansion to inform you. Moreover, you can only buy perfume if you have this brand. As for you, which mansion are you from? I haven't seen you before. Didn't you get the brand? Then It's no use waiting in line. I heard that from now on, Xu's perfumes will only accept reservations."
The waiter was so dumbfounded that he had to quit the team and went back to Liao Ji to tell the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was also confused after hearing this: "What? Number plate?" What is this thing?
What should I do if I can’t buy perfume?
The shopkeeper of Liao Ji thought about it for a while and came up with a bad idea: let the clerk disguise himself as a beggar, and by begging, he would bump into the maid or woman who bought the perfume, and steal a bottle back when she was not prepared.
The man did as he was told.
After a while, he came back with disheveled hair.
“Where’s the perfume? Have you got it?”
ification
The waiter took out the perfume from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper after touching it several times.
The shopkeeper immediately went to the owner’s residence.
Liao Guangtian got the perfume, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sniff.
In an instant, his fox eyes widened as if they had not been awake for a long time: "Good stuff!!"
No wonder women from all over the country are willing to spend huge sums of money to buy them.
After bathing, apply a little on the body, it will not make the master fascinated.
You must know that the fragrance that seems to be there but not at all is the most attractive.
Compared with this incense, the ointments and balms sold in shops are nothing!
"Mr. Xu..." Liao Guangtian rubbed the perfume bottle as if thinking to himself, "We can't let him have the opportunity to dominate the family!"
“Master, you mean...”
"If Mrs. Xu was still alive, I wouldn't mind negotiating a business deal with him, but as you can see, there is no one in the Xu family who can make the decision now. The daughter of the Xu family... ha! I'm afraid she's shivering if she isn't holding the secret recipe for perfume. !”
At this point, Liao Guangtian narrowed his fox eyes: "Sooner or later she won't be able to keep this formula. Instead of taking advantage of others, it's better to help me, Liao Ji."
“Dongjia means…”
"Originally, she could be my son's daughter-in-law, but it's a pity that she is still in the filial piety period, which is unlucky. Then... hire a few people to scare her. If she obediently hands over the formula, she can say anything. If she refuses, give some to Mrs. Xu. To save face, leave a queen for the Xu family and don’t kill people..."
“But when I was young, I heard that the daughter of the Xu family was paying filial piety to her parents and had not left the house for a year. There were also rumors that she was not in the house at all, but was keeping filial piety in the cemetery.”
“Then send someone to find out. It would be great if they really kept their mourning in the cemetery. Who would know what is going on in the wilderness.”
…
"Recently, I always catch some ragged beggars at the door of the house, begging just begging, and always looking into the house. After scolding them, they came over not long after, and I even closed the side door. Anyway, If the girl doesn't come back for the holidays, the door will not be opened except for the kitchen where shopping is needed. If you want to leave the house, remember to ask Xu Xing to open the door for you."
“Oh.” Sikong responded. The lowered eyelids cover the bottom of the eyes thoughtfully.
The next day, after finishing his work, he went out for a trip.
Xu Xing, the boy who was in charge of the key to the side door, scratched his head when he saw him saying something to the beggar who was peeking out of the house. He felt that Sikong Accountant was very strange. He had been in the house for a year, and he had nothing to do with the people in the house. He still didn't talk much, but he had quite a conversation with the beggar on the street.
Late that night, a figure floated out from the Xu Mansion. It was like a ghost and as fast as lightning. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the vast night.
"who!"
Chashan Villa, the nurse on duty vaguely saw a few figures climbing over the wall of the second courtyard, and shouted in alarm.
"His! Sixth! It must be you again. You were caught after climbing over the wall for a moment!"
“Just discover it if you find it! We are not here to do good things. Only those who do good things will remain anonymous! I am here to do bad things, Jie Jie Jie Jie—”
Several other thieves: "..." They didn't find it funny at all.
But since the nursing home discovered it, we had no choice but to solve it.
The second she entered the hospital, Xu Yin had already woken up before Zi Yuan and Hong Qian rushed in in panic to wake her up.
"What happened?"
She quickly put on a piece of clothing outside her nightgown to cover the protective clothing inside.
“Girl, a group of men in black came outside and injured several guards. Wang Huyuan asked the girl to evacuate immediately.”
“You want me to withdraw? What about you?”
“The slave buys time for the girl.”
The two maids spoke in unison, both seeing the determination in each other's eyes.
Xu Yin patted their arms comfortingly: "It's not that time."
After saying that, go to the door.
“Girl!”
The two maids were so anxious that they wanted to stop her: "You can't go out, girl!"
“It’s okay.”
Xu Yin pretended to take out the treasure vase next to the door, but actually took out a strong wooden stick from the system space, put it in her hand and patted it.
She used the red tree trunk of Taoyuan Star to sharpen this wooden stick for self-defense. She could easily break ordinary wooden sticks, but the red tree trunk was as strong as an iron rod and could not be broken easily.
The two small worlds had not been used before, and I thought that this small world was probably useless, because there was a nursing team of twelve people protecting her day and night, and the nursing team solved the problem before she could take action. .
I didn’t expect that it would come in handy one day.
…
She opened the door and walked out before the maid could stop her.
In the courtyard, three of the guards had fallen to the ground.
The eight people were fighting with the man in black, and the leader of the nursing team, Wang Huyuan, was guarding the door of her room.
The sound of the door opening made him turn around quickly.
“Girl!” he said urgently, “go quickly, girl!”
"Leave?" The leader of the men in black waved away the guard who was fighting with him, and looked at Xu Yin, "It's not impossible to leave. Today, six of my brothers came here just for one thing."
“What?” Xu Yin asked coldly.
“Secret recipe for perfume.”
