Chapter 35 Nobles (1)

The queue in front of the shop had turned the corner, and Lian'er was so busy that she didn't even touch the ground. Suddenly, she saw that the two of them came back together, and she felt a little surprised, but she didn't care about asking in detail, and only complained to Xiaoyu a few words. Her eyes slanted and glanced at Li Qing again. Seeing that he was energetic, she took the money and threw it into the jar. She didn't count it anymore. She was even more excited than the twenty taels of silver she had obtained from her adopted father that day. Then Yang Zhao rushed over. After that day, Lian'er found that everyone seemed absent-minded, and she felt suspicious in her heart, thinking secretly: "What must have happened, I should interrogate Xiaoyu carefully at night."

A few days later, June 19th. This day was the first payday of the ice drink shop, but it was also the day of Guanyin Bodhisattva's enlightenment, and it was a grand temple fair among the people. On this day, the crowds of people from all counties and eight townships rushed to Langzhou City. The sun was still sleeping. The stalls and vendors who came to the market started land grabbing exercises on the roadside early. There was a clay stall here, and a vendor selling candied haws stood there, or climbed up the tree and hung several summer bamboo curtains; or lay a few white papers, and the old scholar selling words hugged in the corner and grinded ink carefully, as if he was with the merchant. His eyes seemed to have turned to the sky, but his long gown had patches overlapping, which was afraid that there were more than the Baizi's barbed robes.

Li Qing rushed to the store early in the morning. Today will be an extremely busy day and a day when copper coins are pouring in. Over the past ten days, the hot business day after day has kept everyone in full capacity, and the staff has been added one after another, from four to ten, but one thing is strictly controlled, that is, the recipe for ice and snow mud. So far, only Li Qing and the other three know that Lian'er and Xiaoyu have stopped coming to the store, and they stay at home to make snow mud so that they can sleep more at night.

Gradually the sun woke up and smiled. Impotence began to appear on the street. At the easternmost point of Fuqian Street, the Guanyin Temple was the Guanyin Temple. More and more people were crowded. People who had been incense in the temple came out. Most of the people sold on the street were toys and food. The short and fat man selling fried rice candy and boiled water was carrying a load and smiling. The rattle in his hands were loud and loud. From time to time, someone stopped him and spent a copper coin to drink a big bowl. But the children were more interested in the toys, mud roosters with mud and two red chicken feathers on their tails, which didn't look like it at all. But the children just liked it. If they had children at home, they could not buy them. Besides, they could whimper. In addition, there were small flutes, butterflies, bamboo dragonflies, and tumblers, which made the children's eyes dizzy.

But the most famous this year is Xiao Li Ji's snow mud and popsicle, especially snow mud. Many people came here specially for this. This fresh food made everyone who had eaten salivate, and those who had not eaten were even more eager. It even became the capital for children to show off. Those who had eaten twice were taller than their breasts that had only been eaten once, while those who had not eaten before were like leaves that had been frosted, drooping, and suddenly their eyes shone again, and they swear that my father would definitely take him to eat today.

There was already a crowd in front of Xiao Li Ji's counter, as if there were somehow three queues of rice shops before the famine came, and they all glared at each other, thinking that they were the first one. They were stalemate for a moment and then started scrambling.

Crowded, yelling, dozens of hands rushed to the snow mud on the guy's hand, almost squeezing the counter. Li Qing was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and roared: "Yang Zhao! Yang Zhao! Where have you died? Why don't you keep order for me quickly?" Yang Zhao hurriedly ran out of the inner room and asked Liu Ye, who was baking the cone, to pull it hard, so he barely stopped the situation from deteriorating further, but the noise and noise had never stopped.

Li Qing was so busy that he wanted to have a look. While collecting money, he stared at the invoices in the customer's hands carefully. Yesterday, fake tickets appeared, and they were made vividly, even the words on them were similar. He made new tickets overnight, temporarily replacing paper sheets with wooden signs, and customized a batch of iron signs, ready to use them tomorrow. Suddenly, he felt someone slapped his shoulders, and when he looked back, he was the most familiar Zuixianglou guy.

"My shopkeeper asked you to bring a small can of snow mud. Our boss is here to see you!"

When Li Qing heard that it was the mysterious boss who was looking for him, he felt a little uneasy. Could it be that he saw that his business was booming and he wanted to increase the rent? He hurriedly took a can of snow mud and turned around and shouted: "Yang Zhao! Come and help collect the money, I'll come."

This is the third time that Yang Zhao has to collect money, but every time he is asked to collect money, he will always be shorter by one or two minutes in the end. Li Qing also knows that his hands and feet are not clean, so as long as he is not too much, it is fine. Besides, his wife's body is also seen by him, so he can only treat it as a little spiritual compensation for him.

Yang Zhao was about to go into the inner room to enjoy the cool air, but suddenly he heard Li Qing ask him to help collect money. He was overjoyed. He originally wanted to eat Li Qing, but Li Qing seemed young, but his methods were sophisticated that he never gave him any chance to participate in core work, such as accounting and snow mud production, and even his wages were paid one day. He worked hard and rewarded him more, and he was deducted if he was lazy. Last time the black-faced man made trouble, he took a step back and was deducted for 200 cents of rewards. He even wanted to pay his wife out, but he failed to succeed. However, except for Li Qing being too calculating, other aspects were not good. In just half a month, he had already obtained ten stakes of rewards and wages, which was twice as much as he said at the beginning. He also opened five stakes of wages for his wife, and the house he lived in was also converted into a separate courtyard. So in general, Yang Zhao was quite satisfied with Li Qing's boss.

He ran over and took on the job of collecting money. No matter how long it took, he always had to take a position of two-man positions, otherwise he would be really sorry for this rare opportunity.

Li Qing carried a small can of snow mud and ran to the second floor. Although this kind of snow mud can takes a fine route, although it is not Yuezhou celadon, it is also crystal clear and delicate and valuable, just like the Maotai Wuliang of later generations, which is made of Han jade crystals and other packaging, which is exclusively for government cadres. No! It is exclusively for wealthy families to enjoy. Before he arrived at the shopkeeper's room, he saw a white girl's skirt whirling lightly, like a white cloud, floating past his eyes and flashing into the room. With a glance, Li Qing and her eyes met, with clear and pure eyes, like a face of ice jade, without any vulgarity in the world, like a fairy in the clouds.

Li Qing secretly admired her. Although there are many beauties in later generations, most of them are coated with a layer of copper smell, which is really a bit fairy-like. Either they act on the screen or pretend to be pure, but their eyes cannot be separated from the man's waist bag. The woman has a sense of extraordinaryness and extraordinaryness when she swirled and floated.

"Shopkeeper Li, the boss is waiting for you!" The shopkeeper leaned out to see Li Qing and waved his hand to let him in.

There was only the gentle owner in the room, but the girl just now was gone. Li Qing saw the pearl curtain swaying lightly, and knew that the girl had entered the inner room. She felt a little regretful, as if she had missed the most beautiful scenery.

"Mr. Li's business is booming, which is really beyond my expectations. On that day, I saw Mr. Li use twenty of his thirty steads of capital to pay rent. I admire Mr. Li's courage and worry about Mr. Li, but what I see now does not disappoint me."

The owner glanced at the porcelain jar on Li Qing's hand again, and continued with a smile: "The things Mr. Li sells are really unexpected. I claim to be rare in the world and can be seen all the secrets in the palace. But this snow mud is the first time I have seen in my life. It is simple to say, but I admire Mr. Li's imagination and have made such a delicious summer snack. I have eaten it and it tastes really good!"
