Chapter 136 Yangzhou Thin Horse, Huizhou Salt Merchant
The fine spots called by Wuyun Pavilion include goose oil, pepper and salt, and the price is not low, ranging from 140 to 200 yuan per piece. Shuanghonglou home pancakes also have sugar fillings and meat fillings. The salt merchant Chen Sanguan is rich and generous, and ordered the store owner to come and receive all the items as ordered.
Jia Cong tasted it carefully and it was delicious. Jia Lian completely let go of food and drink, took off his cloak, the Shuanghonglou was luxurious and beautiful, and the screens were separated into a elegant room. Jia Lian raised his head and said, "Why don't you not perform music?"
"Please use it slowly by Lord Tongzhi and Jia Xiaogong. Miss Caiwei will come here." Chen Sanguan's triangle face, pointed chin, wearing cloth clothes, and tied his hair. The businessman was not allowed to wear silk on his face, and turned around and urged: "It's been a long time since she was here? Can't I ask for three thousand taels?"
The entourage whispered: "Master, Miss Caiwei is arrogant and the thin horse in Yangzhou is all this kind of virtue. She didn't want to come here. The young men threatened the title of Duke of the Capital, and then dressed up, but they didn't care much... It was almost here..."
Chen Sanguan's expression was gloomy, just a firework woman, she looked down on us businessmen! He turned around and laughed: "Use it slowly, use it slowly, this girl is a famous skinny horse, so it's hard to ask for some..."
"It's okay." Jia Lian smiled and didn't blame him. Jia Cong looked like a good boy watching. After a moment, the followers came to his ears again. Chen Sanguan's face looked better. He raised his hands and slapped it. The sound of silk and bamboo orchestra behind the screen suddenly started, and suddenly sang a song with a Jianghuai accent:
"I heard the first update, and the drum was beating, and I was upset.
Thinking about how luxurious it was to hold a night banquet back then.
The lambs come in, the wine is poured, and the music is noisy.
Now in a lonely and deserted shop, I have to get drunk with the village wine.”
Ancient Chinese operas were divided into nine palaces in the north and south, with palaces, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, Yu, Bianzheng, and Bianzheng, and Biangong seven sounds and twelve rules, and got the eighty-four palace tunes, with north and south, and the north and south, and the north and south were divided into one palace to the end. The southern music did not limit the palace rhyme and was very flexible, but the same flute and piano sounds required the same or the same sound.
The guqin is also divided into seven strings. The woman's tone is very nice, and the matching tone is very different from the capital's overpass, which is softer and more charming. The song "Hangzhier" is sang sad and angry.
“…I remember when I slept on the gums, brocade quilts and silk…
Thinking about the momentum, who was disrespectful?
The nine ministers were called juniors, and the prime minister visited the private yard.
Now that the situation is gone, it is declining, and it is like a floating grass!
Thinking about it, in that day, python jade came to the sky...
The sound of chickens in the thatched hut, the moon shadow in the grass and the smoke on the bridge.
It's really a long distance, looking back and forth..."
With a sigh, a departure and three brushes, this song "Hangzhier" was sung to tears, and the sunken spirit was also gone, but the purpose was not forgotten: "It is not easy for Tongzhi to work hard and run all the way. I believe that Jingshi Lin is going to resign from his post by ill? What do you think of this song?"
"Okay! I can't tell where it's good, it's just good! Jiangnan is indeed awesome!" Jia Lian was surprised and said, and then he revealed his true feelings: "Mr. Lin cannot be cured. I'm going to wait for a while, maybe I will go back to Suzhou... Alas, why don't you ask Yangzhou Skinny Horse to come out to see you?"
Liu Caiwei's song really deserves her reputation. He heard Jia Cong's emotions in his past and present lives. As soon as he heard Jia Lian's words, Jia Cong cursed in his heart: "Idiot, Jia Lian, you idiot! "Guanzhier" is sung by Wei Zhongxian, it's fine if you can't hear it. Chen Sanguan obviously didn't mean the drunken man. He would invite us for no reason? At least he had to get some money... He is really a teammate of pigs..."
Chen Sanguan's eyes flashed happily, and he raised his hands again and slapped: "Miss Caiwei, come out, these two are the grandsons of the famous Duke, this is the second master of Lian, this master Cong, who is known as the number one prodigy of Dashun..."
The ink screen opened, and Jia Lian's eyes immediately straightened. A young woman with a long water-green dress, a Hangzhou eyebrow makeup, and a rabbit-like scarf walked to the banquet, shaking her steps and three times, petite, delicate, every frown, smile, and move, all of which were fascinating. Her pointed chin was full of charm.
The salt merchants' eating habits are often too ugly, especially those from Huizhou who often use money to smash people. Liu Caiwei refuses to come in disgust. However, when people carry them out of the Duke's Mansion, she leans on the door to laugh and plays on the banquet, how dare she offend the powerful and powerful?
Her pretty face was always indifferent and cold, and she bent her knees to Jia Lian slightly. When she arrived in front of Jia Cong, her wonderful eyes looked at her slightly, and then she gave her a blessing: "The old man from Shanhai is famous in Jiangnan, but she doesn't know that the young master is still between the young clash."
"The girl praised it." Jia Cong smiled admirably. Not to mention that the thin horse in Yangzhou is really seducing people. Walking, speaking, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, dance and song are all cultivated to adapt to literati. To a certain extent, famous firework women are a hundred times more etiquette than the boudoir's daughter, which is most likely to attract scholars. In turn, firework women are also proud of marrying scholars and ashamed of marrying merchants.
"Is "Guanzhier" sung for Wei Zhongxian?" Jia Cong saw through Gu Ying, who was forced to come over, and deliberately used this song to ridicule Jia Lian and Chen Sanguan. Unfortunately, Jia Lian, who did not read poetry and books, did not understand the meaning of Chen Sanguan.
Liu Caiwei did not ask for forgiveness, and retreated to the side and frowned and said, "Young Master is so knowledgeable."
"Why do you want to dance a dance?" Jia Lian was in high spirits. He didn't know who Wei Zhongxian was.
"I have injured my front leg and can't jump." Liu Caiwei smiled and refused. Chen Sanguan was dissatisfied. Jia Cong said, "Then don't make things difficult for others, so that they can't let each other go."
Liu Caiwei smiled at Jia Cong. Although Jia Lian was moved, Chen Sanguan said that Liu Caiwei had a very famous relationship with Suzhou, Hangzhou, Weiyang and Jiangning areas. If it arises, it will be difficult for him to end. Such women are generally related to scholars and officials. It is reported that Liu Caiwei was once a concubine of Yang Qinghe, but was later expelled from the family and returned to her old career. The chief assistant Yang Qinghe was from Changshu, Suzhou, and Jia Lian did not dare to make a big deal.
Jia Cong made the decision and said, "Please go back, that girl, we are going to end."
Liu Caiwei gave a graceful and graceful gift, her eyebrows blinked slightly, her autumn waves smiled, and her legs were bent away.
Several people left, Chen Sanguan paid the bill, Jia Lian took his foot and left first. Jia Cong went out of the elegant room and saw someone next door talking about "The Scholars", secretly scolding the unscrupulous businessman. The copyright was in his hands. The book was sold in Jiangnan, and he didn't know, but he also laughed at it for fifty steps. Shanhai Bookstore sold Jiangnan books, which infringed on copyright. It was just two words to do commodity economy, and Jia Cong's face was too selfish.
But I can't travel around idle. Jia Cong said, "Mr. Chen's family is in Huizhou. The Sheyan County of Huizhou is famous all over the world. When I came to Yangzhou today, I found out that my books were sold. I have plans to buy a few workshops and buy a few rooms."
Chen Sanguan was perfunctory and didn't make much progress. Jia Cong was not good for him: "I only know that it was sold by Yanshe Branch and Jiangzuo Alliance."
"Jiangzuo Alliance? Who are their leaders?"
"I just came here. Jiang Huajiao, from Rugao, Yangzhou. He was promoted to the leader of the Jiangzuo League and a generation of Wenzong." Chen Sanguan slipped away with a smile: "I won't disturb my younger husband anymore. The young master wants to buy a few stores and buy a house, so I can find a tooth."
Chen Sanguan elegantly got down Shuanghong Tower and got into a sedan chair. More than a dozen followers were on both sides. He said hurriedly: "Chief Lin also said he had resigned from his post. Taking advantage of this moment, our 100 ships of salt will be transported to Shandong quickly. If there is any leak, the director of the salt farm will immediately dig a ship and sink the boat. Do you know? Has the Chamber of Commerce sent the 100,000 taels of silver there?"
"I've sent it, lord." The follower said: "I just went to inquire with the comprador of the Lin Mansion. The Prince Jia Cong is said to have called him to temporarily act as an assistant to the office."
"What?" Chen Sanguan was shocked: "Hurry, turn back quickly, I'll see him in person."
