Second Master Xue of the Red Chamber has space

Chapter 428
Li Shaoyou was dumbfounded, and after hearing Xue Hong's words, he also said: "It is only a corrupt official like him who knows how to enjoy these things, right? I have opened my eyes today, the house is not big, but it can be tidied up like this. Now I feel that I have picked up a huge bargain."

Seeing his stunned look, Xue Hong couldn't help laughing: "You, you live in a down-to-earth way, this house should be prepared for you. If you really feel that you deserve it, how much will you do to protect your family and the country in the future?" Just do something for the people."

Li Shaoyou also knew this truth, nodded his head, his eyes were firm, and he didn't know what promise he silently made in his heart.

Seeing the servants of the Xue family tidying up the house so diligently, Li Shaoyou asked: "Brother Hong, if I plan to invite some servants, what should I do? You know, I have never been used to these things, and my mother is I have only lived in the capital for a few years after the exam, and I am not familiar with it, so I have to ask you a few words."

Xue Hong thought for a while: "About this matter, you shouldn't ask me, you might as well ask Feng Ziying. It's not that I won't help you, it's just that even if you want to be servant, you will still serve your mother and your wife in the future. Your Yue's family will naturally ask your wife to bring servants to accompany the house, and let them choose other candidates who are still vacant. First, the servants who have come and gone in and out of General Shenwu's mansion over the years have hundreds if not thousands. What kind of slaves and what kind of parallelism, their wives are clear, and there are generations of domestic slaves, there should be some people who are not assigned to work, and it is better to use them than to use them. You let them spend a lot of money Just worry about it.”

Li Shaoyou thought about it for a while, and it was for this reason that he hired servants to take care of Feng Ting. Now that the problem of his house has been solved, the money in his hand is not only not tense, but also a little more generous, which is enough to hire servants to take care of the house and Taking care of Feng Ting.

Hey, wife.Yes, she will soon be my wife.

Seeing that Li Shaoyou didn't know what he was thinking, Xue Hong smiled like an idiot, but he just smiled and let him go, handed over the house title deed to Li Shaoyou, and ordered the servants at home to work hard, Xue Hong turned around and left After leaving this house, there is a place that he must go to no matter what.

And the place Xue Hong is going to is the Flower, Bird, Fish and Insect Market.

Xue Hong was an old BJ in his previous life. He knew that in the last few decades of the Qing Dynasty, the banner people got money every day when they were idle at home.

At that time, the Bannermen's games were clearly divided into "upper five games" and "lower five games".

"Shangwuwan" refers to Wenwan walnuts, hand-twisted gourds, Buddhist bead bracelets, bodhi (eighteen seeds), and jadeite (accessories).From hand-twisted gourds to Buddhist bead bracelets, eighteen seeds, and jadeite, the "Shangwuwan" pays more attention to the word "pan".

The "lower five play" are purple sand pot, folding fan, pipe, caged bird and song insect. People in BJ like to carry birds in cages. Playing with birds is not as simple as cages and birds. Lark, Hongzi, Oak, Thrush, Yellow Bird, Indigo, etc. are called sounds; Zao'er, Zao'er, etc. play the bomb and hold the flag. The BJ people played like crazy.

In addition, there are those who raise pigeons, those who cook hawks, and those who raise dogs and cats. There is only one wave of people who love to raise ornamental fish so much.

No matter what age it is, the most important thing in life is mentality. I don’t know anything else. Anyway, these Eight Banners disciples were divided into eight divisions after the Qing soldiers entered the customs. Everyone has a noble status. Competing with everything, those clansmen who are so poor that they are far away can have a trick for fun, not to mention those powerful and powerful nobles in Beijing.

Therefore, even during the Kangxi period, these toy-selling industries in the capital were very developed.Therefore, these flower, bird, fish and insect markets are everywhere in the capital city. There are many poor people. As long as they are willing to work hard to practice the skills of catching birds and raising insects, they will not starve to death.

With curiosity, Xue Hong came to the best flower, bird, fish and insect market to have a look. He saw that the streets were bustling with people. Every shop and stall was crowded with people, and the sounds of commenting and haggling were endless. .

Xue Hong was curious before, and also came here once with Xue Pan, and he found that in this kind of place, if you don't have any purpose, you can go shopping for a day.So this time, he went straight to what he wanted to see, and quickly found his target.

He came to a shop selling goldfish, which had the most complete variety of goldfish, and almost all kinds of goldfish could be seen here.

There are also many kinds of ornamental fish, and the two most common ones at this time are goldfish and koi.

The fish seller also had a wink, seeing that Xue Hong was dressed brightly and followed by the boy, he knew he was the son of a rich family, but judging by his age, he probably didn't look like an old player.

The fish seller said: "Master, come and see the fish. Don't think our shop is a bit small, but the fish here are top-notch. Here are goldfish. Take a look at this." There are jade rabbits for the white ones, pearls for the red ones, ink dragons for the black ones, and these mixed-color ones, what is Lanshou, what is Huashi, what is Wangtian, what is called blisters, what color do you like, what appearance, take your time~
If you don’t like goldfish, there are koi, which also have better colors. The red and white ones are called Bright Future and Plum Blossom Dianxue, the black and white ones are called Jiuzhilong and ink-colored lotus, and the gold ones are called Lucky Fortune. The black, red and gold ones are called Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang, the silver gray ones are called Yinlin Qiucui, and black, white, red, gold and silver are called five blessings! "

Xue Hong was taken aback by this fish seller's boastful and confident introduction. To be honest, he didn't have any research on this ornamental fish.

"What's the price of these fish?"

"Master, each of these fish has a different price. After all, the quality is different and the value is also different. It is sold to different people and has a different price. Buying live fish is also a fate, don't you think? "

Xue Hongxin said, this is someone who knows how to do business. He didn't say the price to death, but he knew that the customer was interested, so he just threw out the bait and waited for the customer to take the bait.

Xue Hong smiled silently, and stopped asking the price, but led Tang Jiu and Zhuxi to take a good look at the fish, and asked countless questions, and the vendor showed no sign of impatience, but Xue Hong asked more. , the happier he answered.When others came to ask, he also had a smile on his face.

Well, this person not only knows how to do business, but is also a person with a high price in his eyes. At this time, Xue Hong not only admired his business acumen, but even admired his vision. It was obvious that Xue Hong had the heart to buy, so Showed 12 points of service enthusiasm.
