As one of the most prosperous streets in the capital, West Street has many bead shops and fruit shops, including silk and satin shops.
But the silk and satin here is not the highest quality. The highest quality is in Panlou Street, where most of the princes and nobles get their custom-made clothes.
¡°Some small businessmen, or suburban landowners with some spare money, or people who are ready to buy as gifts for relatives in other state capitals, will appear on West Street.
Zhuangji Colorful Silk Shop is a new store with a history of more than ten years.
¡°Compared to the shops in the capital that are often 70, 80, or more than a hundred years old, Zhuangji Colorful Silk Shop is naturally very young.
The owner, Zhuang Jingtao, came to the capital from the south more than ten years ago. After taking possession of the shop, he started a colorful silk business. It has developed very well in recent years. He has hired five clerks and a shopkeeper, and the business is booming.
But Zhuang Jingtao is not just a regular businessman, he also has a side job.
That is to help families whose men have disabilities or disabilities to find young women for marriage; or to find children who have just been born without memory and give them to families who have no children to raise them.
??To put it bluntly, he is a population broker, the kind with a good reputation.
With the development now, Zhuang Jingtao does dozens of business every year and earns thousands of taels of silver, which is almost equivalent to the profit of his silk shop.
At this time, Zhuang Jingtao was drinking tea behind the shop.
He thought that there was a locust plague in his hometown this year. If he returned to his hometown in the twelfth lunar month, he would naturally be able to buy fertile fields at very good prices.
¡°In the past, I could only buy two acres of land, but this year I¡¯m afraid I can buy three acres.
Inadvertently, a waiter ran in from outside and said excitedly: "Master, there is a rich man and his wife from Hebei. They want to buy two hundred pieces of colorful silk to visit the wife's relatives! "
"Two hundred horses!?"
Zhuang Jingtao didn't even bother to drink the tea, he stood up quickly and rushed outside.
I saw a young couple standing inside the shop. The young lady seemed to be one or two years older than her husband. The two were holding hands and laughingly commenting on the colorful silks in the shop.
Behind them stood seven or eight majestic men, who looked very powerful at first glance. Most families could not afford to keep such servants.
Thinking about it, having such a majestic servant accompanying you to your daughter-in-law¡¯s natal home means you don¡¯t have to worry about safety along the way.
Although the Gyeonggi area has been wiped out by the Habayashi Guards to suppress bandits, almost no one can pick up any items on the road, but if you go to other areas, you still need to be careful.
Thoughts flashed by, and Zhuang Jingtao's face was filled with a smile: "Hello, you two, I am the owner of this room, Zhuang Jingtao. May I ask how I should call this young master?"
"My surname is Liu."
Liu Mingqi looked at the thin man and said, "I just entered the capital and found that the things you have here don't seem to be that high-end."
"Who said that?" Zhuang Jingtao said sternly, "Master, you and the young lady need two hundred pieces of colorful silk when they return to your parents' home. They can't all be high-end goods supplied to the palace and various princes' palaces, right?
Although our store may not have a big appearance, we have high, medium and low-end products. You can decide who should be in which grade according to your own choice. Isn¡¯t this great? "
Liu Mingqi frowned, "Do you think I have no money?"
"No, no." Zhuang Jingtao quickly waved his hand, "Master, I am thinking about you! The price difference between a high-end colored silk and a low-end colored silk can be more than 50 taels of silver! Young Madam, please tell me, yes There are relatives and friends, so there is no need to waste so much. In the end, it¡¯s not your own pocket that will be the loss?¡±
Zhuang Jingtao spoke from the perspective of Liu Mingqi and Bagu. If she were a normal woman, she would certainly listen.
After all, your natal family is your natal family, but you can¡¯t have nothing to eat for your own little family just because of your natal family, right?
Bagu nodded knowingly, "Ms. sir, I think what this boss said is reasonable. Let's take a look first, shall we?"
"Thenokay!"
Liu Mingqi looked around and saw that there were many customers looking at the ingredients. He frowned and said, "There are a lot of people here. Please move the ingredients to a clean place inside and we can slowly select them."
"Okay, Young Master and Young Madam, please come in!" Zhuang Jingtao thought that a big fish had taken the bait, and the smile on his face became even brighter, "Old Qin, hurry up and pick out all our upper, middle, and lower third-class colored silks. Then make a pot of good tea and send it in!"
While talking, he took Liu Mingqi and Ba GuLiu Mingqi has been around for so long, and of course he understands that it's time to become a villain himself.
He strode to Zhuang Jingtao. Zhuang Jingtao saw a flash of cold light and a "peng" sound. A grand master's chair had been cut in half by a big knife.
Looking at the snow-white sword being sheathed, Zhuang Jingtao couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"How disgusting!"
Eight Gu found that the ground where Zhuang Jingtao was standing was wet, and water droplets were seeping out. Of course she understood what it was, and walked aside in disgust.
At this time, Zhuang Jingtao realized that he was so scared that he peed.
But he couldn't move even half a step, and his mind went blank.
"Boss Zhuang!"
It was Liu Mingqi¡¯s cry that called his soul back.
"My prince is still very familiar with Master Miao. I know that he hates people who kidnap children and women. As long as they are caught, they will be punished with the most severe punishment.
¡°If I kill you at this time, there may be some trouble. But because you are disobedient, I will cut off one of your hands and feet, and even he will not say anything to me. What do you think? "
Zhuang Jingdao glanced at the smiling young man blankly, his whole heart was cold.
¡°These dear princes really don¡¯t regard human life as human life!
But Zhuang Jingtao also knew that Liu Mingqi was capable of such a thing.
??????????????????????????????????Didn¡¯t he lead his men to openly beat Duke Lu, the son of King Li?
Even Duke Lu dared to beat him, and he was not afraid of punishment. He chopped off his own hands and feet. Who can say anything?
¡° If Zhuang Jingtao was just a businessman with his duty, he would not sit still and wait for death. He would definitely sue Liu Mingqi afterwards - it would be fine if he left the capital afterwards. The clan members are usually not allowed to leave the capital area anyway.
But it¡¯s a pity that Zhuang Jingtao knew very well what he had done.
Such things are absolutely shameful.
Liu Mingqi came to the door, so he was absolutely sure that he would not be able to resist. If he dared to go to Miao Yan to complain, he might really lose his life in Miao Yan's hands.
"Have you earned enough by doing this kind of unscrupulous business for so many years?" Liu Mingqi said, "As long as you help us today, I will send you out of the capital immediately. From now on, when the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, you can go home and be a What's wrong with being a big and stable landowner?
Do you have to risk your life here to be happy? When you earn so much money, should you spend it on your wife or on other wild men? Can you still see your children and grandchildren?
Oh, by the way, your hometown is in xx County, right? I heard that you bought thousands of acres of land? There are 17 people in the family, right? "
All right.
Zhuang Jingtao is a timid person, otherwise he would not only do a little business as a business broker.
Now facing a prince who could kill him, and hearing that Liu Mingqi had found out where his hometown was, his only resistance collapsed instantly.
??????????????????????? If people who do business like theirs will not bring harm to their families, just listen to it and don¡¯t take it seriously.
"Your Highness, what do you want me to do?" Zhuang Jingtao asked fearfully.
Nonsense.
He is just timid, not a fool.
How can you earn such a large family fortune if you are not smart?
How can it be so small that the young prince and princess can take action personally and even threaten his life?
" The thing that can make the young prince guarantee that he will escape unscathed means that after this incident, he will never be able to stay in the capital again, unless he is seeking death.
So it¡¯s strange that Zhuang Jingtao wasn¡¯t scared.
"It's very simple. You take us to Xiqiu Village." Liu Mingqi said, "You go in the name of someone who wants to buy a dozen children between the ages of seven and ten. We are your followers I guess they won't suspect it. ?¡±
Zhuang Jingtao asked tentatively: "Your Highness, are you going to arrest people or rescue them?"
¡°The main thing is to save people,¡± Liu Mingqi said.
"Then there will be no problem." Zhuang Jingtao breathed a sigh of relief, "When you see the children who were abducted and sold today, just tell me and I will buy them. Then there will be no trouble."
"It's best that way."
Liu Mingqi said with a smile.
"Bagu wanted to ask Liu Mingqi, "Don't you want to punish those bad guys? Why can't you just save people now?"
It¡¯s too weak to have to spend money to buy it, right?
Only Chi San¡¯s heart was beating wildly.
Since His Highness was rescued from drowning, his personality has changed a lot. He can tell lies without blinking his eyes.
You want to buy someone?
"Your Highness doesn't even know anyone, how can he buy those three children alone?"
Why would you bring so many guards with you if you want to buy someone, and even call Dazhu who is so brave?
This is obviously the rhythm of big things!
Chi San looked again at Zhuang Jingtao, who was obviously in a relaxed mood, and a hint of amusement flashed across his face.
"You won't know how naive you were until something happened!"
