Chapter 11 Wan Niang

The teahouses in Suzhou City are the best places to inquire about news. Every morning, the people who come to have morning tea and listen to gossip almost occupy the entire teahouse.Whether it is a merchant or a casual citizen, they all like to sit by the window and ask the waiter what news they did not know about what happened recently.Or, the policemen in the yamen would also come to buy some cakes to eat when they are free. The two of them sat at the door and waited for Xiao Erer to pack and deliver the cakes, while chatting about the big and small cases in the yamen.

"Oh, that's really unfortunate." As soon as he got to the door and sat down, the fatter policeman spat on the ground.It's not that he didn't feel that the noisy teahouse became a little quieter, it must be that many ears were pricked up at this time, trying to 'eavesdrop' on some government affairs from the fat policeman.Just listen to it!The fat catcher didn't even look at the gossiping faces around him, and continued: "Yesterday, I found a male corpse by the East River. Oh, hey, it's all soaked in water. You weren't there yesterday. You put the matter of 'finding the master' on my head, but I'm exhausted. Just such an unlucky ghost who fell into the river and drowned, what kind of family is he looking for? It's unnecessary!"

Male corpse?The tall and thin catcher was a little taken aback, probably because there hadn't been such a case in Suzhou City for a long time, the tall and thin man grinned and laughed, thankfully the catcher of the government office didn't entrust him with this matter: "Hey, If the boss entrusts you with such a big task, he thinks highly of you, maybe if you do this well, you will be promoted immediately!"

"Bah! It doesn't hurt to talk while standing!" The fatter policeman spat on the ground in displeasure, slapped the silver on the table, and then walked towards the government office with the things, muttering incessantly : "I don't know where the unlucky guy came from, and I'm going to drag me as an outsider to death! Promotion? Thank God for not letting me take care of this!"

Shen Juexin discussed business matters with Master Shen in the study.For the first time, Master Shen really decided to hand over one of the stores to Shen Juexin to take care of, but before that, he wanted to know more or less what Shen Juexin thought about the future of the Shen family's business.

"Father, I know that our Shen family has been engaged in jade ornaments since our grandfather, and we are considered famous and wealthy here in Suzhou. But have you ever thought that jade mining requires a special approval document from the imperial court, and Master Su and the Shen family have a good relationship before we grow up?" Open the door of convenience. Once the city of Suzhou is changed to "head to heaven", can father guarantee that the newly appointed magistrate can still hand over the privilege of jade mining to the Shen family? If that happens, father can only temporarily seek a way out, so, It's better to open up new business channels now." She should have thought about this a long time ago, Shen Juexin mentioned the matter of getting involved in a new business without any concealment, she had a confident face, and she was no longer as lazy and cynical as usual.

Hearing this, Master Shen frowned slightly: "Open up new business channels?" He didn't believe that he would not understand the purpose of marrying the Su family. If he had plans to start a new business, how could he have put in so much effort? To please Master Su?I wish the daughter of the Su family would marry into the Shen family tomorrow.

"For my Shen family, it is naturally a new way of doing business." Shen Juexin smiled, and the look in his eyes became more and more scorching: "Father should know other people outside the Hu family. He was a mediocre person, but he was in the hands of others Borrowing money to start a rice and grain business, although not good at business, has made a lot of money, and now there is no shortage of food and clothing. Xin'er thinks that most businesses in this world have a limited time, if you want to grow bigger and last longer , only rice, grain, tea, salt and other businesses. Looking at those rich merchants, none of them made their fortunes from the rice and salt business. So, why don't you..."

"It's okay, it's getting late, you should go to the store to see how the business is doing these days." Master Shen naturally didn't want to listen to Shen Juexin's 'find another way', without waiting for the tea on the table to warm up. Liang Liang got up and opened the door, leaving a hasty sentence: "In the end, it's too young to do nothing, and I don't know how to be practical. I hope it will be better after getting married." Alas, in the future, the business of the family will be handed over to Xin'er, and I don't know if it will be a blessing or a curse. .

Looking at Master Shen's back, Shen Juexin stood in the study for a long time without moving.After a little silence, she smiled with the corners of her lips hooked.Could it be that there is such a tiny bit of hope in my heart, how can I speak so bluntly?Since he knew what his father was thinking, he should quietly follow his own mind as he thought before.

"Sigh." Shen Juexin looked down at the newly changed boots today, and didn't intend to go to the so-called 'shop that Master Shen entrusted her to take care of'.She knew that jewelry store very well.It's an old shop, and the business is not getting better day by day, and the account manager is an uncle who is the same age as her father. He looks honest and kind on weekdays, but he is a very thoughtful person.It was fine when Master Shen was there, but if it were her who took over, there would be some accidents to make things difficult for him. "Chen Ci." She finally walked out of the study, and when Shen Ci trotted towards her, she pointed her fan lightly in front of her and said, "Let's go out for a stroll."

There are people coming and going on the street, and the goods sold by the hawkers are even more dazzling.Shen Juexin wandered around doing nothing, feeling depressed in his heart.She wanted to develop the Shen family's business with her own ability, but she was restricted everywhere because she had no assistants.Although I thought about asking Shen Ci to run errands for her, but he is too young and pure in heart, so where is he suitable for bargaining and intrigue? !

If there is no suitable candidate, it can only be shelved later.It seems that it is necessary to wait, to wait for a good time when the time, place and people are harmonious.Thinking like this, Shen Juexin tapped his palm lightly with the folding fan, and when his pace slowed down, a figure rushed towards him unexpectedly.The man hurriedly rubbed shoulders with Shen Juexin, and if he was not careful, he sprained his ankle and was about to fall to the ground.

The screams that should have been heard were drowned out by Shen Juexin's quick eyesight and quick hands. She turned around to support the man when he was about to fall, and with a little force, the frightened woman fell into her arms. "Wanniang?" When she lowered her head, Shen Juexin had just seen the man's face clearly. Even though she lost a lot of weight, she still did not change her past graceful charm.But, why is her face so pale?There were clearly tears on the cheeks.

"Wanniang, why are you so anxious?" Although he was puzzled, Shen Juexin never showed a little concern, and still teased between his brows and eyes: "I haven't seen Wanniang setting up a stall for a few days, so I'm really thinking about it. I don't know if I can eat today." Wanniang's...tofu..."Where are the flowers?

"Mr. Shen?!" As if she didn't expect to meet Shen Juexin here, Wanniang couldn't help being surprised.However, she had extremely important things to do, and even a little shyness was dispelled by anxiety, so she ran straight ahead without having time to answer.

"Master, she?"

"There must be something urgent." Shen Juexin looked at the direction where she was leaving thoughtfully, after thinking about it, he actually did something 'nothing' that he had never thought of before.She said to Shen Ci, "Let's go and have a look." Anyway, idle is idle.
