"This street looks quite prosperous." Chu Yanze said, but only he knew how sincere his words were. Having seen the prosperity of Wangjing City, Beiguan City is really nothing to see. If it is just for the novelty, it will not last long. Xu Youquan thought he was sincere and replied with a smile while waving the folding fan, "This is something we tried our best to recover after the war last year. In addition to the government's encouragement of commerce and the introduction of many tax reduction and exemption regulations, there are also Madam deserves a lot of credit.” "Oh?" Chu Yanze raised his eyebrows and looked at Mingyi, "I also heard that Mrs. Xue brought your Fuji and Deji Hall to Anxi. Not only Beiguan City, but also several other state capitals have your business. ? In addition, my wife also organized a caravan and purchased a horse farm. In just a short time, my wife has already taken root in Anxi. It really makes people sigh that she is a heroine among women!" Mingyi listened to his "hearings" with a smile on her face, twitching her lips and said, "Master Chu is really well-informed." Strangely enough, the same "Madam", Xue Lin or someone else It's nothing to say, but why is it so unpleasant to hear it coming from the mouth of a person named Chu? Chu Yanze frowned suddenly, as if Xue Lin had said this to him yesterday. "Actually, if my governor hadn't been so generous with money and all his wealth was used to support the army officers, I, a woman, wouldn't have to work so hard, let alone bear the false reputation of a heroine in Mr. Chu's mouth. Who wouldn't be able to live a leisurely life? ? Now that I have said this, I hope Lord Chu will take our little incense and help the soldiers and civilians of the Fourteenth Prefecture of Anxi to tell the world about the situation here. Even if the arrears of military pay cannot be made up for a while, this year The weather is going well, and when local taxes are collected, they must give some. And if the Ministry of Revenue can agree to reduce or reduce taxes for the caravan from Anxi to the Central Plains, that would be great." Mingyi looked towards him with a smile on his face. Chu Yanze. Chu Yanze's forehead twitched twice, and here comes another debt collector. The atmosphere was inexplicably stiff, Xu You laughed and smoothed things over, "Oh! As we go on, we arrive at my sister-in-law's shop. Mr. Chu, do you want to go in and take a look?" Xu You folded his fan and faced not far away. a little. Up ahead is the most prosperous part of Changmen Street. Mingyi's Fuji, Deji Hall and Hua Xiangrong are all in this section.
"Of course I have to take a look! The grains and medicinal materials sold in Mrs. Xue's shop are worth their weight in gold at critical times, and you can't buy them with money." Chu Yanze pointed out. Xu You's eyes flickered, but Mingyi seemed not to understand, and said with a smile, "If Mr. Chu likes something, just take it. In addition to food and medicinal materials, I also have a rouge shop. With Mr. Chu, If you are well-informed, you should have known about it a long time ago. The business is pretty good. I will give away everything that Mr. Chu in the shop likes, no matter how expensive it is!" Chu Yanze's smile was almost unbearable, "Mrs. Xue is joking, I am not here to plunder people's wealth and wealth." "Oh! Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Mingyi raised her hand to cover her mouth, saying sorry, but there was no apology on her face. Several people were talking and walking forward. The first person who passed by was Hua Xiangrong. Since they were all here, Mingyi naturally wanted to go in and take a look, "This is my little rouge shop, Xiao Hou." Lord, Mr. Chu is upright and upright. He refuses to plunder the people's wealth and wealth, and he will probably not go in to see it, so as not to stain his official reputation. You just have to endure it today and stay with you outside. I will ask Fan Shuang to give you the latest news later. Put on the makeup." Mingyi said as she walked towards Hua Xiangrong and glanced at Chu Yanze, her expression showing a hint of proud provocation. Chu Yanze frowned. Did he say he wouldn't go in? He is not trying to plunder the people's wealth and anointing, he is just inspecting the people's sentiments. This is also the duty of the border patrol. While he was thinking, he followed Mingyi with a straight expression. Mingyi raised her eyebrows, met Xu You's eyes, and smiled. She kept looking behind her and stepped up the steps. She had already reached the door of the shop. She didn't notice that a figure suddenly rushed out of the shop and was about to hit her. When she realized what she was doing, she hurriedly stepped aside. , but there are steps behind him. A hand reached out to help her at the right time, stabilizing her figure. She turned around and saw that the person helping her was actually Chu Yanze, and raised her eyebrows in surprise. As soon as Chu Yanze's eyes made contact with her, he withdrew the hand holding her and frowned at the person who rushed out. Mingyi looked at him, took a step towards him, wrinkled her nose, and a faint light flashed in her eyes. Xu You also frowned and looked at the man and said, "What are you doing so frivolously?" The person who rushed out was wearing a colorful dress, who was it if it wasn't Pei Qingqing? She had almost bumped into Mingyi, but her expression had changed. But before she could speak, she was immediately dissatisfied when she heard Xu You's question. She turned around and choked, "You're not any better than me." ! What is so fierce?" When he looked at Mingyi, his expression and tone softened, "I'm sorry, I was waiting for you for a long time, and when I heard your voice, I came out in a hurry. I was rash, right? Can’t live.” Mingyi chuckled, "It's not a big deal, Mrs. Pei Wu, don't worry about it. You are waiting for me here, but what's the matter?" "It's not a big deal. I just heard that a patrol envoy came to Wangjing City, and he was a handsome man. You will accompany him, so I wanted to come and have a look." Pei Qingqing said, already looking behind Mingyi Chu Yanze looked at it and looked at it frankly. Xu You snorted and said nothing. However, the folding fan in his hand opened with a "swish" sound and he patted his chest quickly. Although he didn't say anything, his expression and movements said everything. Pei snorted softly and stared hard at the back of his head. His eyes fell back on Chu Yanze's face, looking at him from top to bottom. Scanned all over. Chu Yanze had never seen such a straightforward girl before, and his face suddenly became stiff. Mingyi glanced at him and felt that Mrs. Pei Wu was becoming more and more to her liking, so she smiled and took her hand, and asked with great interest, "How do you feel now that you see someone?" Pei Qingqing's expression was very intriguing. He shook his head and said, "She looks good, but her body is too thin. If she meets someone from Beidi, she won't be able to withstand a single move. Alas, she is from Wangjing after all. Men, we can't stand the sandstorms in Anxi!" These words were full of regret.
But all he had to do was make it clear that he despised him, Mr. Chu. In Wangjing, he was a noble and humble gentleman, but in Beiguan, he was nothing but an embroidered pillow that looked good. Mingyi caught a glimpse of Chu Yanze's suddenly livid face, and for a moment she could hardly help but laugh out loud. Mrs. Pei Wu was such a wonderful person, how could she know what to say to make this patrolman unhappy? "I have never been to Wangjing. At first, my father said that he would choose a husband for me in Wangjing. But if all the men in Wangjing are so meager, then forget it! I said it earlier, my future husband But it can't be worse than Governor Xue." Pei Qingqing remembered lowering her voice when saying this, but not much. Just looking at the expressions of Chu Yanze and Xu You, Mingyi knew that they could hear clearly. She saw Xiang Pei Qing's eyes were also filled with smiles and became softer. Mrs. Pei Wu felt that the way Mingyi suddenly looked at her like an old mother was strange. She frowned suspiciously and murmured in a low voice, "There is no man who can compare to Governor Xue in this huge Anxi. I thought this handsome man from Wangjing would be better, but he turned out to be like this. Could it be that... I can't get married?" The muttering was not too quiet. Chu Yanze's face darkened visibly to the naked eye, and the color went straight to the bottom of the pot that had not been cleaned for many years. Mingyi frowned in a good mood, as long as she could make Mr. Chu unhappy, she would be happy.
