Delicate Flower - Chapter 198

[Chapter 197]

So fast!

Yu Tang was very surprised, but after being surprised, he became happy again, and felt that he was lucky to have chosen shopkeeper Xiao Tong to help.

She thanked shopkeeper Tong Da.

The big shopkeeper Tong waved his hand and asked for the shopkeeper Xiao Tong to come over, and the three of them sat in the small flower hall in the inner hall behind the pawnshop to discuss the future.

The meaning of shopkeeper Tong Da is to ask the outside masters to help make a batch of incense sticks the size of foot basins and incense sticks with thick arms. They will be used for offering incense at the sermons, and then they will be taught to the masters and laymen of Ku’an Temple. How to make this kind of incense, plus the method of making incense that the second and third misses have taught, a large part of the incense is sent to Pei’s incense candle shop for sale, and a small part is left in the temple, or sold to door-to-door. People who ask for incense, or pilgrims who come to Kuan Temple to offer incense.

The former Yu Tang can understand, this is exactly what she thinks, but the latter she does not understand a little, said: “Ku’an Temple is quite remote, there are almost no pilgrims, it is good for those who come to offer incense to give some Buddha incense. , can sell incense to those who come to ask for incense…”

Eight or nine out of ten no one buys it!

Shopkeeper Tong’s chubby face smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and said, “Miss Yu, doing business is not that simple. Sometimes it’s to make money, sometimes it’s to gain fame. Sometimes, making money is more important, there are At times, reputation is more important. After all, Ku’an Temple is to do good deeds. Since it does good deeds, reputation is more important. Besides, Ku’an Temple has no reputation at all, so how to open Ku’an Temple’s reputation is The most important thing. As you said, Ku’an Temple is remote, there are few pilgrims, and even fewer people come to ask for incense, but our original intention is not to sell incense – think about it, if you If you go to Ku’an Temple to offer incense, you will get incense, but those who don’t go in to offer incense, want to buy the Buddhist incense of Ku’an Temple with money. Do you choose to go in and offer incense? Or choose to just buy it without entering Why don’t you leave as soon as you smell it?”

Yu Tang was stunned and thoughtful.

Shopkeeper Tong looked at and nodded secretly.

No wonder Yu Xiucai was reluctant to marry this daughter, this is a clever one, and it is obvious that in a few years, he might really be able to support the Yu family!

As soon as the shopkeeper Tong was happy, he simply said more: “So, the incense given to Zhaoming Temple is very important. It must smell good, and it must make those women feel comfortable smelling it. Ah Hai went over there. , the first thing is to smell the smell of those Buddha incense. I heard that there is an incense that can make sandalwood-flavored Buddha incense. I think this is good, we can make a batch of sandalwood-flavored Buddha incense separately When you come out, you can give it to festivals such as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, on a first-come-first-served basis, while supplies last. You can also make some soothing incense. Many older pilgrims have trouble sleeping…”

He said It was a long story when it came to business, and when he felt that Yu Tang was looking into his eyes, he was

surprised that he was talking too much, so he quickly stopped the topic and said with a smile, “These are all what I thought casually. , what to do specifically, we have to analyze it in detail based on the actual situation, and we will discuss it carefully.” But just

talking about it casually has already opened Yu Tang’s eyes.

She hurriedly said: “you say, you say. It’s just that I didn’t think about it so much before. I was afraid that I didn’t remember it for a while. Could you let me find a pen and write it down?”

Shopkeeper Tong was stunned, and then laughed out loud.

Yu Tang blushed and said anxiously: “I, my brain is really not enough, you better stop laughing at me.”

“It’s good, it’s good.” Master Tong didn’t care and smiled, “I also bring People who have had many apprentices, I’m not afraid of not knowing, but I’m afraid of not being serious. You are very good, and the business of Ku’an Temple will definitely be able to do.”

It turns out that in the eyes of the shopkeeper Tong, the matter of Ku’an Temple is nothing but nothing. It’s a business.

Yu Tang smiled awkwardly.

Shopkeeper Xiao Tong had a chance to speak at this time.

He respectfully asked Yu Tang: “Can I have a look at the incense recipes? I’ve heard that you found these incense recipes from the orphan book. Since they are in the orphan book, they must be the incense recipes from the previous dynasty. People use incense to advocate luxury, and today people use incense to advocate elegance, and this incense recipe may need to be adjusted.”

This is a misunderstanding.

This incense recipe was matched by Gu Xi in the previous life, not only in line with the hobbies of modern people, but also especially popular with women.

Shopkeeper Xiao Tong has never seen the prepared incense, so he will naturally be worried.

Yu Tang readily agreed: “We just want to help Ku’an Temple to have an income, not to rely on incense to live, you can change it however you want.”

As long as the person hired by the shopkeeper Xiao Tong has this ability.

The shopkeepers Big and Little Tong were obviously relieved.

Yu Tang secretly pursed her lips and smiled.

She stayed at the pawnshop for almost an hour, and the three talents gave a rough outline of the future regulations, but if they continued to talk, some details would be involved.

Shopkeeper Xiao Tong had just taken over, and Yu Tang had not visited Ku’an Temple yet. He didn’t know what he asked or answered. They did not continue the discussion, but made an appointment to wait for Shopkeeper Xiao Tong to visit Ku’an Temple. , I found the incense maker.

Yu Tang got up to say goodbye.

The shopkeepers Big and Little Tong sent her out.

It is the season of spring when flowers bloom. The camphor tree branches in the courtyard of the pawnshop’s inner hall are green and fresh, and the koi raised in the pond under the tree are swaying and lively and lovely.

Yu Tang couldn’t help but pause slightly.

She suddenly thought of the first time she entered the inner hall.

Pei Yan was in the private room.

She saw his silhouette across the patio.

It seems like it happened yesterday.

But in fact, almost two years have passed.

Yu Tang tilted the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

At that time, she just thought that Pei Yan was handsome and compelling, and people could not forget it, but she didn’t expect that one day she would become Pei Yan’s guest and would have so many entanglements with the Pei family.

She returned to Yu’s house happily.

On the other side of Pei Mansion, Shu Qing came back from Ku’an Temple and was talking to Pei Yan about the road construction: “It’s all arranged, at most ten days, the road will be clear, but if it’s all covered with bluestone slabs, I’m afraid it will take a long time. Half a year.”

The most important thing is that during this time, every household is going to spring ploughing or planting mulberries to prepare silkworms, and there may not be young and middle-aged people to help build roads.

He hesitated and asked, “Would you like to ask Tang Zhifu to do me a favor?”

Tang Zhifu’s nine-year term was about to expire, and he was always looking for a way to move to a better place, but it was revealed last time that the Li family kept refugees in private. Afterwards, he didn’t want to offend the Pei family, nor the Li family, who in his eyes were upstarts. The result of both sides’ favor was that both sides were dissatisfied with his handling results. At this juncture, neither of the two families would naturally. help him.

He was in a hurry about it.

But Pei Yan didn’t want to give Tang Zhifu this chance, he said: “Our roots are in Lin’an City. If we condone a parental official like Tang Zhifu, what will the officials who will take office in the future think? According to me, the Li family takes refugees in private. The matter has to be mentioned again and again, and kick him into a corner to become an official, so that those who come to Lin’an to become officials will open their eyes and know what to do and what not to do.”

Shu Qing thought it made sense, so he nodded, and was about to continue talking to Pei Yan about the prefect. After the prefect of Tang left, who would come to Lai’an to be the parent official?

Who knew that Pei Yan changed the subject and went to the lecture at Zhaoming Temple on the Bathing Buddha Festival: “Has the schedule for that day come out? How is the donation arranged?”

He was stunned.

To be honest, this is a trivial matter, and with his status in the Pei Mansion, he will not pay attention to this matter at all.

But as a staff member, he couldn’t say he didn’t know.

He immediately called for Hu Xing to come in.

Hu Xing immediately said: “The specific regulations have not yet been set, but Lao’an people mean to donate first, then teach the scriptures, and those who want to donate again can continue to donate. All those who have donated that day can stay. The name, engraved on the stone tablet, stands next to the Enlightenment Pine behind the temple. Do you think this is okay?”

Originally, there were old rules to follow for such things. Although Hu Xing said that Lao An had not fully determined it, the regulations must have been approved by Lao An, otherwise he would have directly let Pei Yan make up his mind.

He said this just because he was afraid that Pei Yan would disagree with Lao An, so he just said hello in advance.

Of course, if Pei Yan must change, he will definitely modify it according to Pei Yan’s intentions.

It’s just that the probability of this happening is very small.

Pei Yan is the suzerain of the family. He is someone who wants to take care of important affairs. This kind of thing about throwing incense money and donating some sesame oil money, he didn’t need to ask him before.

Hu Xing thought that he might just ask on a whim, and he stood up confidently and waited for Pei Yan to praise him.

Because they continue to accept donations after the lecture, most of these donations after the lecture are ordinary people who are excited after listening to the lecture, which is a momentary act of excitement.

But in this way, the donations and silver taels must be more than ordinary incense conferences. This time, the lectures funded by the Pei family will definitely be famous in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, making the Pei family the icing on the cake.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yan glanced at him, but said: “This matter is well arranged. However, this time, I invited the eminent monks from the South Shaolin Temple to come over, the main thing is to let everyone listen to the teachings of the eminent monks, so don’t overwhelm the guest. Lectures will be held. The donation after that is the same, the donation before the lecture…” He pondered, “The temple will arrange for the monk Zhike to take it up, and the master of the Zhiketang will sing a list of donations. When it comes to showing your face, it’s better for the Pei Mansion to be less involved.”

Hu Xing and Shu Qing timidly agreed, and the other opened their eyes wide and didn’t blink for a long time.

Pei Yan doesn’t care what these people think.

After arranging things, the string that had been breaking in his heart finally loosened.

Everyone acted in unison. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com was temporarily changed again, so Miss Yu shouldn’t have a chance to make trouble, right?

He pondered in his heart, wondering if there was anything wrong with him.

Hu Xing and Shu Qing bowed and saluted strangely one by one, and exited the study.

Pei Yan began to think about Tang Zhifu.

However, Hu Xing grabbed Shu Qing and asked him in a low voice sincerely: “What does the third master mean? Do you think my previous arrangement was too high-profile? He won’t be angry, right?”

The new suzerain , moody, really let him not understand the context.

Shu Qing was thinking about Yu Tang.

Does this matter have anything to do with the lady of the Yu family?

Therefore, when he answered Hu Xing, he was a little absent-minded: “Probably not! However, it was said that Miss Gu’s family would come to join in the fun that day. Although she is the eldest grandson-in-law, the position of the suzerain falls to the third master.”
