Cub Nursery

"The supply and marketing mall in Beijing."

The six flying and phoenix characters stand on the top of the double-storey concrete building, which can be seen clearly from a long distance.

Regardless of whether you are a native of the capital or a foreigner, you must first look at the three-story cement building of Honglu Temple. There will be another "Beijing supply and marketing mall". The glass window, now that the formwork blocking the surroundings is gone, you can get a closer look at the inside, and you can still see the triangular steel frames clearly.

"I heard that it sells things, just like a grocery store. It sells everything, but I don't know the price and who sells it."

"That's definitely not a place we can go, just look outside."

"You said Master Yan used so much cement to build this square, and what was it used for?"

When everyone is free, they like to gather in the square in front of the mall, look inside through the glass, and guess again how Yan Xun wants to manage such a large mall.

On the concrete road outside, a young eunuch in the next grade hurried past with his head down.

On the concrete bridge, the little eunuch hurriedly took out a waist card, shook it, and took out a handful of broken silver, without waiting for the deputy guarding the bridge to ask.The deputy general guarding the bridge looked at it and let it go.

The little eunuch walked along the Danxin Bridge, and when he reached the other side of the bridge, he saw the cubs playing outside, so he hurried over and said, "Young masters, I am the person next to Concubine Lu..."

Seeing that he was someone he didn't know, Messi ran to the back and stood there.

The other cubs were not afraid, they looked at each other, and finally the Huashu cub stood up and asked, "Follow me, my lord is busy, I have to ask him if he is free first."

"Yes!" The little eunuch didn't dare to raise his airs, and hurriedly nodded.

Yan Xun was talking to Dan Baobao in the room, so he naturally had free time.

When he got to the small room outside, Yan Xun looked at the little eunuch calmly, he saw that although the clothes he was wearing were new, the inner clothes were not old, and the shoes were slightly worn out, so he knew it.

"What's the matter?" Yan Xun asked.

"Concubine Lu asks my servants to bring some clothes to my lord." The little eunuch didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly brought up the bundle, and opened it in front of Yan Xun.

The clothes inside are not Yan Xun's, but the cubs' clothes, all of which are made of good materials, patterns embroidered with gold thread, shoes and hats are all available, almost comparable to the young masters of rich families.

When the little cubs saw it, their eyes lit up, and then they reacted again, and quickly put on a straight face, pretending that they didn't care.

"Sure, put your clothes down, I understand." Yan Xun cleared his throat, stood up, and personally sent the little eunuch out.

Yan Xun directly sent the little eunuch to the carriage, arranged to send it back, and then went back to the house.

The clothes in the baggage were still put there, unmoved.The little cubs looked disinterested, but they were actually very concerned. Seeing Yan Xun come back, their eyes obviously lit up.

"Okay, let's take it to the house to see." Yan Xun said with a smile.

"Oh!" The snake-bodied cub hurriedly jumped off the bench, swam to the front to look carefully, and followed all the way into the house, watching eagerly as the clothes unfolded one by one.

The clothes are made of excellent materials, using gold and silver threads, and the shoes and hats are slightly larger, which are just right for the cubs.

"My lord!" The snake-bodied cub leaned over, "Why does Concubine Lu want to give us something?"

"Could it be that there is something you want from us?"

"We are mainly busy with shopping malls now, does it have something to do with shopping malls?"

"Sir, what should I do then?"

Although the cubs were very happy to see these clothes, before Yan Xun nodded, they would not get carried away, but discussed the matter rationally.

Yan Xun was very pleased that these little cubs were so rational in the face of such temptations, and he felt that the stories he usually told played a big role.

"Do you know who Concubine Lu is?" Yan Xun picked up a piece of clothing and looked at it, the stitching was indeed very good, and there were some ingenuity in it, it could be seen that these clothes were put into thought.

The little cubs shook their heads in unison.

"This Concubine Lu is a brother." Yan Xun said, "His family used to run a tailor shop. One year when the emperor was out of the palace, he happened to see Brother Lu who was embroidering with embroidery needles in the tailor shop, so he went to ask Would he like to enter the palace..."

Brother Lu nodded and followed into the palace. After giving birth to a prince the next year, he became Concubine Lu.

"Concubine Lu, are you the same as Concubine Xian?" The long-haired cub picked up the baby egg that was dangling in the nest, and asked Yan Xun curiously.

Concubine Xian has helped everyone several times, and she is the closest person in the Du family to Yan Xun, so all the cubs know that Concubine Xian can be close.

"It's not the same." Yan Xun sighed, "Concubine Lu doesn't look outstanding, and she doesn't know how to compete for favor. She only has embroidery skills, which is useless after entering the palace. The emperor probably will forget about him. "

"He gave birth to a prince, how could he still be unfavored?" The long-haired cub felt very strange.

The little cubs also had question marks on their faces.

Because in the eyes of the cubs, Yan Xun treats each of their cubs the same. He never deliberately treats anyone well or badly. Even the younger brother is the same as the cubs. , so it is difficult for everyone to imagine being favored and not being favored.

"It's not that simple. The Tian family's family affairs are also state affairs, and they involve a lot. I will explain to you later." Yan Xun smiled and said, "Now, you can take all these clothes and see which one is yours. , if I'm not mistaken, each of your cubs has a set."

The clothes seem to be similar at first glance, but the embroidery on them is all different with different thoughts.

Obviously Concubine Lu didn't know what the cubs looked like, but the embroidery of each piece of clothing was different, so Yan Xun asked the cubs to divide them according to their preferences.

The cubs all got new clothes, which were given by others, and they were all very happy.

Yan Xun personally wrote the brochure, before the mall opened, it was necessary to choose a store manager, the fourteenth prince was the most suitable.

The zhezi was sent to the palace, and the emperor saw it, and immediately became angry.

Let’s not talk about the shopping mall, because Yan Xun signed contracts with those shops and people because of the land occupation, so he built a huge double-storey concrete building with great fanfare. The glass and steel bars used in it are more than those used in the palace.

Up to now, Yan Xun has not sent much glass to the palace, but used a lot of glass in the nearby place,

This time, the shopping mall chose a store manager, and even wanted Qin Shishi to go.

"There's no reason for that." The emperor threw the memorial to the ground, "Call me for Concubine Lu, I want to ask, he's so daring, he dared to stretch his hand outside the palace."

Not long after, Concubine Xian took the lead, followed by Concubine Jia with her big belly, and Concubine Lu behind.

Lu Ge'er was not outstanding in appearance and not gorgeously dressed, the emperor had forgotten about it all these years ago, if it wasn't for Yan Xun's book this time, the emperor would not know when he would be able to think of Lu Ge'er, maybe he would not be able to remember him for half his life.

As soon as they entered the Imperial Study Room, Concubine Xian and Concubine Jia surrounded the emperor from left to right, without giving Brother Lu a chance to come forward.

"Your Majesty, what kind of shopping mall is that, why don't you give it to His Royal Highness?" Concubine Xian said softly, "I heard that there will be more than one shopping mall in the future, and the neighboring state capital will also open. More than half of them have to walk from the mall..."

If this is the case, there will be a lot of money flowing in the mall.

The emperor originally wanted to nod, he watched Qin Yi grow up and taught him personally, but... the emperor remembered that Qin Yi even lied to him, just to win Yan Xun's sympathy and for the property under Yan Xun's name.

Now if the shopping mall is sent there again, will there still be an emperor in Qin Yi's eyes?

"No." The emperor glanced at Concubine Lu who was kneeling below, and said calmly, "Call Fourteen here, I haven't seen him for a few days."

As soon as these words came out, the ending was doomed.

The next day Qin Shishi left the palace to look for Yan Xun.

"You are Shisan's younger brother." The snake cub brought over tea with the tip of its tail curled up. "I'll drink it for you. There is fruit juice in it, which tastes sweet."

Fourteen sat on the bench cautiously, holding tea in both hands, taking a sip from time to time.

Yan Xun was busy outside, the little cub ran out to look for him, and whispered on the way: "My lord, I see that Fourteen and Thirteen are similar, but Fourteen seems to be more timid, no matter how I ask him, he doesn't speak. , If you give him candy, he won’t eat it.”

"Oh? Is Shisan coming today?" Yan Xun asked.

The little cub trotted along with his broken leg, "My lord, Thirteen said that I don't have time to come here today, so I can come tomorrow, so what about Fourteen?"

The little cub sighed decently, as if he was really sad.

"It's nothing." Yan Xun said, "Fourteen is also a prince, he will understand what he should understand sooner or later."

Yan Xun could understand why Qin Shishi was so reserved. He was born by Brother Lu, and his mother's family ran a tailor shop. , Brother Lu didn't communicate with other concubines, and he didn't know how to compete for favor. He didn't have the chance to read and write, so he could only raise Qin Shishi by himself.

Qin Shisan did not have a mother to support him, and he lived in the palace since he was a child. He has experienced more after all. It is different from Qin Shisan. Qin Shisan is protected by Brother Lu and taught by precepts and deeds. Naturally, he will become what he is today. appearance.

After entering the room, Yan Xun remembered what the little cub said, and knew that Qin Shishi hadn't gotten up since he sat down.

"The latrine is outside, I'll take you there." Yan Xun saw Qin Shishi with his legs crossed, trembling all over, holding the water glass with both hands, drinking in small sips mechanically, his face turned pale.

"En." Qin Shishi hurriedly stood up and followed Yan Xun to the toilet.

Back in the house again, the little cub quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were going to the toilet just now."

"No, it's nothing." Qin Shishi hurriedly waved his hands, stuttering a little, his face flushed with embarrassment.

"Relax, there's nothing else to do. Several older brothers above you have received errands from me." Yan Xun said softly, "Your father tried his best to get you to come to my place, you should also know..."

"I, I know!" Qin Shisi hurriedly said, "Father, he spent all the money he saved, and finally got together the cloth and gold thread. He didn't rest at night for several months, and finally sewed those Clothes. Dad said he has no skills, so he can only send me out... But, but I have no skills, my lord, my lord, don't dislike me."

As he spoke, Qin Shishi was about to cry.

The war rabbit cub saw it, and hurried over, took out a piece of caramel from his pocket, "I'll give you some candy."

The caramel exudes a sweet and sweet smell. Qin Shishi took it and put it in his mouth like a war rabbit cub. It was sweet, he had never eaten such a delicious candy, and couldn't help but want to cry again.

"I know you are wronged, just cry, just cry out." Yan Xun stepped forward and hugged Qin Shishi in his arms, and said gently, "It's great that you have your father's pain, think about others, how can there be such a thing?" father."

"That's right, I don't have such a good father who can sew clothes." The war rabbit cub said hastily.

The other cubs all nodded. They didn't have such good fathers, but they felt very good in the nursery. They had the best adults in the world.

"Wow..." Qin Shishi felt wronged and cried out loud, out of breath.

After crying for a long time, Qin Shishi stopped sobbing.

Yan Xun took a handkerchief to help him wipe away the tears on his face, and said with a smile: "You, follow me to study hard, and try to find a chance to take your father out of the palace to live in the rest of his life."

"Can, can you?" Qin Shishi has a red nose and red eyes, like a bunny.

"Of course." Yan Xun nodded seriously.

Staring at Yan Xun in a daze, Qin Shishi realized that Yan Xun was even more beautiful than everyone he had seen in the palace, like, like the stars in the sky, very dazzling, after a long time watching Eyes hurt.

Seeing Yan Xun start making arrangements in a daze, Qin Shishi murmured, "My lord is too pretty."

"En!" The long-haired cub nodded quickly, and suddenly felt that Qin Shishi felt strange, "You are so right!"

The next day, Yan Xun specially cooked a table of dishes.

Qin San, Qin Liu, Qin Shisan, and Qin Si who was reluctant but still came, and Brother Huan, all came.

Yan Xun smiled and took out a jar of flower wine, "If you don't get drunk today, you won't go home."

"Okay!" Qin San took the flower wine and poured a full glass for Qin Shishi first, "Fourteen, you have the opportunity to follow your lord, you have to seize it, and you must not take it lightly. Look at the sixth and the thirteenth How was life in the past, how is it now..."

"Third brother, I heard that you are running to the beach every day to help buy some pottery pots. Can pottery pots be used at the seaside?" Qin Sipi said with a smile.

"I don't need to bother you." Qin San said calmly, "I heard that something happened to your train recently, and it almost overturned on the way? But is it true?"

Qin Si's face was ugly, and he hurriedly said: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, there's nothing wrong with it."

Yan Xun's face remained unchanged, he looked at these people with a smile.

Yan Xun knew about the train, and Brother Huan was also on the train at that time.

At that time, the train stopped suddenly while running, and all the technical craftsmen entered the front of the car to check for faults. Qin Si took some people to check the carriage. The carriage was full of coal, and there was no cover on it. Qin Si even climbed into the carriage with people. Ready to unload all the coal inside.

In the end, Qin Si didn't succeed, and his face remained dark.

Brother Huan had already told Yan Xun about this, but he just pretended not to know.

After the meal, Qin Shisan, Qin Liu and Qin San each brought Qin Shishi a souvenir and comforted him a lot.

After everyone left, Qin Shishi slept in the room by himself, feeling very excited inside.He used to be in the palace, only Lu Geer and the court lady and eunuch, and every time he saw other masters, he basically couldn't say a few words. Qin Shishi had also met Qin San and others in the palace before, but at that time They are all strangers.

Here at Yan Xun, everyone seems to be brothers of ordinary people, it feels very strange.

On Yan Xun's side, he hugged Dan Baobao for a while and found no signs of broken shells, so he sent them to the opposite room and let the cubs hug them. Recently, Dan Baobao always likes to roll around in the bed. Xun was worried that he would be crushed.

"My lord." Jing Fengye took out two clothes from his wooden cabinet, "I embroidered them."

"Let me see." Yan Xun became interested.

The clothes are very thin, Yan Xun knew they were obscene clothes.

Under the oil lamp, Yan Xun took a closer look, and saw two dragon scale traces embroidered on the chest of the jacket, the stitching was a bit rough, and the bottom...was embroidered with a string of dragon scale traces, similar to Jing Fengye himself. the same.

Holding the gesticulations, Yan Xun suddenly found a problem, and hurriedly asked, "Did you sew it wrong? There are two more holes here."

"That's right." Jing Fengye whispered, "This way...this way...it doesn't affect you even if you wear clothes..."

Yan Xun came to his senses and threw the obscene pants on Jing Fengye, "What are you thinking about!"

"Good stuff." Jing Fengye was delighted.

It was something he thought about for a long time. It's best to put on this kind of obscene pants after taking a shower. Then...it will feel completely different from usual, for sure...

Thinking about it, Jing Fengye hurried over, "My lord, try the size, I'll modify it again."

"Don't try. You sew those two holes up for me!" Yan Xun pulled the quilt to cover his face.

"My lord, just try..." Jing Fengye squatted beside him and begged, his voice pitiful.

In the middle of the night, the ears of the cubs on the opposite side were so good, Yan Xun didn't dare to let Jing Fengye keep talking, so he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, and tried reluctantly.

**

The Beijing supply and marketing mall has a store manager!It is the fourteenth prince.

Those who have been inquiring about the news all heaved a sigh of relief when they found out, thinking that this is serious.

If Yan Xun is the store manager himself, and I heard that he will go to other Zhou mansions to build the same supply and marketing shopping malls in the future, selling all the things that can be sold, how will other merchants do business in the future?

It must be inappropriate for Yan Xun to make so much money.

On this day, most of the shops in the capital received invitations from the Fourteenth Prince, inviting everyone to come to the Conservation Hall for dinner.

Fan Jinshui also accepted the invitation, and led a group of small-scale people who run their own shops without an owner, and went in a mighty way.The shops behind Wang Zhen'er, Pei Yu'er and other aristocratic families also hurriedly tidied up and brought Li Lai.

Others saw that everyone had gone, no matter what, they must go and see, so they went too.

Shopkeeper Dudu Wu did not receive the invitation, his shop is still outside, the walls are all in good condition, but it is lonely, there are quite a few people who go to watch every day, but no one actually enters the shop for so many days .

When it came to the construction of the Conservation Hall, Yan Xun took Qin Shishi and explained to everyone, "I will manage the middle circle, and the surrounding circle will be divided into shops. If anyone of you has an idea, you can rent it."

"This is a model." The cubs came over carrying the model.

There are places Yan Xun manages on the first and second floors, but the rest are in the best locations.Now that the shopping mall has not opened yet, it is already full of vigor and vitality in the capital. It is conceivable how many people will go there, and the business will definitely not be bad.

Those present were all businessmen, so they naturally knew that in business, besides stability, there was also Xin, which could make a small amount of money, and Xin might lose money, but it was the only way to make big money.

"Do all the shops here use such big glass doors and glass walls?" Fan Jinshui asked curiously when he saw that the model was made of glass.

"Well, it's all made of glass." The black and white cub nodded.

Such a large glass is more difficult to manufacture alone, as well as fixing and installation, as well as adjusting the glass formula, etc. For this reason, the black and white cubs and the flame cubs worked overtime all night.

"En, that's right." Many men nodded in satisfaction, not saying anything else, just talking about so many glasses, and there will definitely be people who come out of curiosity.

"Today there are more people than the shop, everyone should think about it first, let's bid." Yan Xun said, "The fourteenth prince will preside over it, and then we will sign the contract directly. Set the rules, otherwise, no matter how much money you give me, I will not be able to rent it out."

As for the status and status, with the fourteen princes around, even if the emperor came to ask for a shop in person, he would definitely not be able to open the door.

"My lord, why don't these shops bid?" Fan Jinshui asked again.

"I released these alone to compensate the people who occupied the shop." Yan Xun smiled at Fan Jinshui and said, "There are still some left for acquaintances."

Fan Jinshui hurriedly stopped talking, because he knew that he was one of his acquaintances, and Yan Xun had told him in advance to ask questions today.

The fourteenth prince was very nervous at first, but fortunately Yan Xun was always by his side, and the shopkeepers of Fan Jinshui, Wang family, Pei family, etc. were all very talkative, generous, and never bargained. I stopped stuttering, and found a faint feeling of calmness.

All the shops were rented out, so Yan Xun took the shopkeepers and entered through the small door that no one was paying attention to.

There are several gates in the shopping mall, extending in all directions, and the windows are all glass, so many.There are two rows of shops inside, and the corridors in the middle are paved with stones, which are extremely clean.In the middle is Yan Xun's place, surrounded by shops, so you can't see inside.

The shopkeepers were dumbfounded when they saw the genuine glass walls and doors.

"This is too big, how much money will it cost..."

"Not much, not much." Yan Xun hurriedly said modestly.

He seldom sells glass, but the price he sells is not low, but it is not difficult to make glass, especially now that the formula is stable, with coal to heat up, and with the help of black and white cubs, making such glass is not difficult. No trouble.

"Thank you sir." Fan Jinshui also has a small shop, the place is not big, even very small, but it has glass walls and glass doors, and he is extremely grateful.

"Brother Hui is right next to you, please help." Yan Xun said in a low voice.

"Understood." Fan Jinshui nodded hastily.

Brother Hui is the brother who helped Yan Xun a lot at the beginning, selling candied haws, and has a lame foot.This time Yan Xun specially gave him a small shop, enough for him to sell candied haws.

Going further inside, the size of the shop is different, and it is the same as what I saw on the model. At this time, the shopkeepers saw it, and hurriedly asked the guys around to write it down, and brought their own goods when they turned back. Such a good place , must be carefully decorated Caixing.
