In the next few days, Tang Ji lived the life of a 7-to-4 migrant worker. Although the agricultural reform was only implemented in the Gyeonggi region, many policies were launched in one fell swoop, which kept him busy, and he finally managed to get some rest.
day.
In the morning, a beautiful woman wearing a blue dress was sitting in the side courtyard of Prince You's Mansion. There was a long piano placed on the long table in front of her. Her slender white fingers were flexibly playing the strings, melodiously and cheerfully.
The sound of the piano echoed in the courtyard, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Tang Ji sat at the stone table, holding the problem in his hand, and wrote something seriously on the rice paper.
Just at this moment, a figure walked out of the stone archway and complained: "Tang Ji, why didn't you tell me about Xiu Mu today?"
"Why should I, Xiu Mu, tell you?" Tang Ji stared at the content on the paper intently and answered casually.
Li Yu snorted lightly. Ever since he came back to Kyoto, his life has been getting boring day by day. Of course he has to find some fun. The most interesting person in the house is Tang Ji. He missed it when he went to Jingwang County last time. Today this guy is taking a break.
Of course I have to keep an eye on him!
"Sister Jiang!" He said hello to Jiang Ran, sat down on the stone bench, and picked up the rice paper spread on the table: "Ji Ran Bar, Ji Ran Bank, Ji Ran Snack Street...these
What are they?"
Li Yu scratched his head in confusion. Although he was only seventeen, he was still well-informed. He had never heard of industries like bars and banks. He turned his attention to Tang Ji for answers.
Tang Ji finished writing the plan at hand, put down his brush, and after flexing his muscles, he explained: "Isn't the Yang family's industrial chain mainly based on brothels, restaurants, gambling houses and banks? Then of course I have to start an industry to suppress it. First,
Let’s talk about banks. The main business of Jiran Bank is deposits and loans. Deposits have interest and the interest rates on loans are low, suppressing the Yang Family Bank. As for bars, you, an ancient person, may not understand, so I will explain it to you slowly.
.....”
In this way, Tang Ji spoke out a series of plans he had conceived, and did not stop until he felt his mouth was dry: "...That's about it. Now there is just a plan, and a lot of money will be spent in the future.
Time to prepare.”
Li Yu had already been dumbfounded on the spot and swallowed his saliva: "You are so cruel. You have plotted all the Yang family's property. No wonder there are rumors outside that you are not allowed to offend you, saying that you are a guy who will take revenge...
..”
Listening to his non-stop chatter, Tang Ji interrupted bluntly: "Just tell me whether you want to participate or not!"
"Of course I will participate!" Li Yu replied without thinking. Although Tang Ji was a little too savvy, there was no doubt about his business ability. He would be a fool if he didn't make money even if he had money. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then asked: "But,
Doing so many industries requires a lot of money and manpower, right? For example, the Jiran Theater requires experienced actors, and there is also a snack street. It costs a lot of money to own a street. I have just developed my influence in Beijing.
Many places cost money, so I may not be able to help you!"
Tang Ji glanced at him: "I have known for a long time that you are unreliable. I will go to the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce later."
Hearing this, Li Yu curled his lips. How could he be unreliable? Even if he was, it was just a little bit. He didn't think much about it and said, "Without further delay, let's leave now."
Tang Ji shook his head, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it over: "I forgot to tell you that your "Hongke" lost a manuscript during typesetting. This is Yao Jin's letter. You
Take a look at it yourself, then complete the manuscript as soon as possible and let Brother Pangda take it back to Huaizhou."
Li Yu frowned slightly, took the letter, opened it and browsed it through, then said dissatisfied: "Tang Ji, this bookstore of yours is too irresponsible. Don't you need to compensate for the loss of the author's manuscript?"
"Of course we will compensate." Tang Ji arranged the rice paper on the table, raised his eyes and smiled: "But you are the shareholder of Ji Ran Bookstore!"
After saying that, he walked straight to his room.
Seeing this, Li Yu couldn't help but sigh. After all, "Hong Ke" was a work he had worked hard to write. It would be a pity if it couldn't be printed and put on the shelves because of a small part. Suddenly, he had an idea and looked at Tang Ji's
The figure from behind shouted: "Hey, Tang Ji, don't you claim to have a photographic memory? You must still remember the contents of my book, right?"
"I'm sorry, I haven't read your book at all..."
In the end, Li Yu stayed in the mansion to finish the manuscript, while Tang Ji took Jiang Ran, Jiu'er and Cheng Tie out.
...
Not long after, on the streets of Dongshi.
It had been about a month since he came to Kyoto. Tang Ji hadn't gone shopping with Jiang Ran yet. It happened to be that he had a rest today, so he didn't take the carriage and chose to walk. He bought a silver hairpin in front of a stall and raised his hand.
He placed it on Jiang Ran's hair and admired it for a few times before nodding with satisfaction.
Jiang Ran turned to look at Cheng Tie, who was covered in bags and bags, and said softly: "Buy less, Brother Cheng can't even carry it!"
Hearing this, Tang Ji glanced at the panting Cheng Tie, and couldn't help but remember the scene where he easily flew across the long bridge of the Ye family, and sneered: "He can walk like flying even with fifty kilograms of silver on his back, it's okay!"
Even so, Tang Ji did not intend to continue shopping. He put the silver hairpin into his sleeve and took Jiang Ran's hand towards the Tianxia Chamber of Commerce not far away.
Jiu'er didn't think much about it. She was holding a bunch of candied haws in her hand, with a happy smile on her face. But she had just licked up the frosting on the top candied haws, and was about to bite the hawthorn inside into her mouth, when someone suddenly
After a bump, the candied haws in his hand also fell to the ground.
Before she could get angry, the other party had already fallen to the ground.
"Ah yo~"
The young man in white satin clothes sat on the ground and groaned. He had regular features, thick eyebrows, and was as tall as he was. He raised his eyes to look at Jiu'er, and stood up with the help of the man in gray clothes: "How do you walk?
?”
After hearing his words, Jiu'er suddenly showed a look of grievance. In front of her was her uncle and young lady, and behind her was Brother Cheng. It was obvious that the other party bumped into her intentionally, but she knocked him down and pouted: "I should ask you this question."
That’s right!”
The servant in gray who was supporting Shen Yunchu immediately retorted: "How dare you talk to my young master?"
"Back off!" Shen Yunchu scolded, his eyes locked on Jiu'er. He didn't expect this little girl to be quite hot, but this makes it even more interesting. He raised the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to Tang Ji and said, "I wonder what you call me, brother?"
Jiang Ran saw the other person's thoughts through his eyes and gently pinched Tang Ji's palm.
Tang Ji wasn't stupid either. Of course he found out that the other party was lustful, but he didn't expect it to be towards Jiu'er and said in a cold voice: "Get away!"
After saying that, he was going to leave with a few people.
Shen Yunchu froze on the spot. He knew almost all the young masters from famous families in Kyoto, and he was sure that the other party was not among them. Then why was the pretty boy in front of him so arrogant? Thinking of this, he reached out to grab Jiu'er's arm.
But the little girl was a step faster and immediately hid next to Jiang Ran: "Miss!"
Hearing Jiu'er's name for the pretty woman, Shen Yunchu smiled again: "Brother, your maid bumped into me, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
