Chapter 39 The Black Panther and the Teenager (29)

Ophiopogon japonicus is the shopkeeper of the branch of Wangshan Town, Zhinuan Buzhuang. As early summer is approaching, summer clothing materials need to be prepared in advance.

The silk and silk needed in this summer also needs to be decided and distributed by the big shopkeeper of Zhinuan Clothing Village in the county town.

It was for this matter that Manager Mai was planning to take his 15-year-old eldest son to the county town.

At this time, the father and the two were standing in front of the carriage saying goodbye to their wife (mother) and children (brother and sister-in-law).

Manager Mai’s wife looks pretty. She holds a girl about ten years old in her left hand and gently instructs her husband and eldest son.

"The road is too bumpy, don't rush to rush. If it's too late, stay in the county for one night and come back tomorrow.

I have packed the clothes I have changed. The dried food and pastries steamed in the morning are packed in the food box, and the sheepskin is filled with honey and cool white blooms."

Manager Mai also laughed softly and said, "I'm all cicadas and will take good care of myself and my eldest son. Don't be tired at home."

Then he pulled away the youngest son who is now five years old and still holding his legs, clamoring for candy and toys.

He said to his daughter again: "Your mother is weak, so you can help her take care of your brother at home. When your father comes back, he will buy you the golden lilac from Yujinlou."

The little girl responded softly, but her eyes glanced into the carriage. There was a bamboo curtain hanging at the door of the carriage, so naturally I couldn't see anything.

Next to the cloth shop is a shop selling rouge and water. As soon as the boss's wife came out to splash water, she cursed in her heart that she was "not ashamed" when she saw the couple saying goodbye.

But he turned his head and pinched his dull husband's waist blue.

The shopkeeper of Rouge Shop is not really dull, he is just stupid and can't speak. When he grinned and looked out, he knew that he must have been implicated by Storekeeper Mai.

You said you were just going to a county town. If you were a little anxious, you could get back and forth in a day. Besides, you had to go eight times a year without going ten times a year. As for the return trips so hard to part with?

The children have all given birth to three, and the eldest son is about to get married. Can you be more shameful?

The most important thing is, can you not give eye drops to other men?

Manager Mai:...

cannot!

His heart for his wife is understandable, and he wishes that the whole world knows it.

Not to mention the shopkeeper of Rouge Shop who suffered unintentional disasters, even Liu Kongqing and Changsheng, who were hiding in the carriage, were forced to feed a wave of dog food.

Only Liu Kongqing also heard the voice-over of the couple Yiyi farewell outside the car.

Mai Ophiopogon jackpot was not only asking her husband, but also asking Liu Kongqing, who was hiding in the carriage.

The Liu family has the habit of "being a bell doctor before sitting in the hall". First, it can quickly accumulate rich treatment experience, and second, it is also a kind heart for pity for poor people to treat diseases.

The shopkeeper Mai Ophiopogon japonicus and the shopkeeper’s wife Bai Zhi are both orphans taken in by Mr. Liu while practicing medicine.

This Zhinuan Clothing Village was originally available, and it was Liu Kongqing's great-grandmother's dowry, and it is also a time-honored brand in Yangchengfu.

Over the years, there have been eighteen branches alone. Two years ago, they opened in Wangshan Town. Mai shopkeeper every month had to go to Zhinuan Clothing Village in the county to exchange accounts and ask for new fabrics.

It can be said that this time will come back every month, and it will not seem abrupt.

How could those who were surveillance think that two years ago, Liu Kongqing, who was only twelve years old, had already planned what happened today.

Those carriages that set out from the road carriage are not just the guise of the ancient maze.

The coachman, the boy who hired cars, and even the ambushing stakes on the road were all Northland Rangers.

The seven kingdoms of the North are famous. Most of these people come from wealthy families, have good martial arts skills, are famous for being generous and easy to make friends, and are committed to committing suicide and righteousness.

The group of rangers who were contacted by Liu Kongqing were born in the royal family of King Tang and were friends with Mr. Liu.

When something happened to the Liu family, he invited Mr. Liu to Tang Kingdom. Mr. Liu was unwilling to leave because of the stigma of "there are losses in medical ethics."

This time, this Wangnian handed over the letter of help that Liu Kongqing asked someone to send him. He didn't feel troublesome, but instead thought that Liu Kongqing would live better than his grandfather.

...

Mai Shopkeeper Mai Xiaodong has been following his father to the county shop since he was fourteen or fifteen years old. Anyone with discerning eyes can tell at a glance that this is the preparation for Mai Shopkeeper Mai to train his son as a successor.

Mai Xiaodong is clever and sweet-mouthed, and is mainly very good at doing business. The soldiers guarding the gate of the county town all know this little shopkeeper of Zhinuan Clothing Branch.

Mai Xiaodong quickly stuffed a piece of silver worth about two cents into the hands of the soldier Wang Jia who was guarding the city, and then whispered as if the two brothers were good: "Brother Wang, please remind me, is it difficult to enter this county town today?"

Wang Jia turned his hand and the broken silver fell into his sleeves. His face was serious, but there was no one on his mouth.

"The superiors are going to investigate people. The 14th Five-Year Plan boys, who are suspected of being taken away.

If you didn’t get along well with your brothers, you would have to let Uncle Mai go to prison to catch you. Then..."

Wang Jia laughed, and Mai Xiaodong and the shopkeeper Mai who were sitting on the shaft of the car were shocked, but their faces were confused and scared, they were the perfect actor.

I understand the Bing Ding this is the shopkeeper Mai who is fond of favor to the father and son. He took out a five-two silver ingot from the bag in front of him and stuffed it to Wang Jia.

"Uncle and your brother have nothing to do today. You and other friends will take this to drink. When I go to Ming, I will definitely bring you, brother to a table and give you a good table."

Wang Jia pretended to refuse a few words and then stopped, with a hint of sincerity on his face.

"Uncle Mai has done the job and hurry up and take Brother Xiaomai home. Not only our place, but the entire Yangchengfu is not at peace. When can I drink this wine? It's not too late to wait for five or six days."

Wang Jia glanced at the carriage and waved his hand to let go. The other soldiers squeezed at Mai Xiaodong and said silently, "Waiting for your kid's wine."

Mai Xiaodong felt a little thrilled, but he smiled with a pleasing smile on his face. He bowed to them and walked into the city gate with a carriage.

The Mai family and his son were speechless all the way. When they saw the signboard of Zhinuan Buzhuang on the north street of the county town, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Manager Mai entered through the front door of the cloth shop with a normal expression, while Mai Xiaodong rushed to the back door of the cloth shop with a familiar look and drove directly into the backyard.

Because of the reminder from the city gate guards, the Mai family and son were really busy. While it was not too late and the city gate was not closed, they pulled a cart of summer clothes out of the city.

...

The next morning, the shopkeeper of Zhinuan Buzhuang in the county town led his clerk to the mansion.

This is all convention, no one doubts.

Just as the shopkeepers of the town branch need to go to the county town to report the accounts and allocate fabrics, the shopkeepers of the county town also need to go to the main store in the capital town to hold a meeting.

As the shopkeepers of branches and shops from various counties arrived, the main store in Fucheng also took action.

In addition to the business of the cloth shop, the owner of Zhinuan Clothing Village is also a famous fur merchant in Yangchengfu.

No matter what era or society, the business philosophy of businessmen is the same.

"In summer, people who are in charge of skin, in winter, in bait, in boats, in water, in carts, in wait for lack of water". [Note 1]

In order to make greater profits, fur merchants accumulate large amounts of fur goods in summer and wait for the winter to sell them.

The Tang Kingdom in the north is the best place of fur production among the seven countries.

The unique purple cloud marten fur, snow wolf fur, and black otter fur, are exclusively used for royal families and great nobles in various countries, and can be said to be a treasure of every inch of her skin.

It's summer coming soon, and all major fur merchants are heading north together to catch up with the first batch of good furs.

On the third day of the third month, the merchant ship from Zhinuan Buzhuang had already docked at the Yudai Heyang Chengfu Pier.

The guys who had been waiting at the dock had brought boxes of fine summer clothes onto the cargo ship.

The shopkeeper of Zhinuan Clothing Village is a businessman who cares about the best use of things. How can this fur dealer run over empty-handed and waste manpower?

Therefore, the old shopkeeper went to Tang Guo to talk about Saluo's business, which happened to be followed by it.

...

When the merchant ship left the pier, Liu Kongqing crawled out of the large camphor wood box filled with silk and satin with Changsheng in his arms.

He stood on the deck and looked at the Yangcheng Mansion from afar, looking at the Xia Kingdom across the river, and only felt that the sky was high and the water was wide at this moment.

Even if you don’t know what the future will be, at least everything in the past can no longer become his shackles.
