Chapter 128

The Ident.i.ty Of Liu Liang

Steward Qin, upon hearing that she had arrived, hurriedly stepped forward to greet her. “Miss, you’re here. That signboard …”

“I know. In a while, I will let Liu Liang bring the Emperor’s calligraphy over. You can have someone to copy it and make a signboard.”

“Alright, alright. I’ve already found a person. He’s the most famous decorator in Jingling City. He’ll definitely make the perfect signboard.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile, “I naturally believe in your judgment.”

Steward Qin realized that he had been too anxious and could not help but laugh, “Miss, with the Emperor’s golden signboard, the number of people who came to reserve seats today has suddenly increased by two times, and Bu Xian Luo full booked until a month later. Besides, early this morning, several merchants came to order tea leaves, but our teahouse was too small to supply.” His tone was full of regret. It was heartbreaking to see someone come to his doorstep with silver taels but be unable to bring it back.

“Our teahouse is small, but the entire Jiangnan Province is big. We can buy fresh tea leaves and stir-fry them ourselves. If some places are inconvenient to transport tea leaves, we can directly send a master who has learned how to stir-fry tea and find a yard to hang the sign of Bu Xian Luo. It would make it convenient to buy and sell tea. In the future, Bu Xian Luo will be bigger, and we will want to open a teahouse somewhere else. We would need someone to rely on in there. Why not do it now?”

Steward Qin was surprised for a moment. He then slapped his forehead and said, “My brain actually created of wood. I can’t believe I didn’t understand such simple logic. I’ve let Miss Mu make fun of me.”

“You didn’t think about it in such a short time, but if you were to go somewhere else, you would have to consider it in advance. The people you send out should be reliable as well. After all, the place is far away, and it is easy to create trouble. Our Bu Xian Luo hangs the signboard that the Emperor bestowed, so the quality of the tea leaves must be consistent. Even if we have gone to other places, we must keep a strict watch over them and not ruin the signboard.”

“Yes, I will definitely choose carefully. Please rest a.s.sured that the account books will also deliver on time. When the time comes, we will settle the accounts for Miss Mu.”

Mu Yunyao smiled. “Of course, it’s good. From now on, I’ll be sitting at home, and money will come from the sky.”

Steward Qin quickly went to make the arrangements. Mu Yunyao called Liu Liang over and told him to check on the beggars at the entrance of the garden.

Jin Lan couldn’t help asking, “Miss, why are you interested in those people?” No matter where it was, beggars and the like were not few in number. The same was true for Xiling’s Capital, not to mention Jingling City.

“I feel that they are a bit interesting. If the beggars could be of use, then not only would they open a path to survival, but they would also be able to effortlessly find a person who could use it, which would be killing two birds with one stone.”

“Miss wants to use those beggars?” Jin Lan couldn’t help but worry. “Although there are good beggars among them, many people have developed a temper and only want to accept help from others. Even if they have work to do, it would still be cheating. It’s probably useless.”

“I’m here only to take a look. If I can really use it, I’ll have to make a good selection.” Now that Bu Xian Luo was gradually becoming more stable and after reopening Ni Yun Fang, we will able to make money every day. It was time to find a way to nurture their own men and set up a new workshop and teahouse in other places.

Mu Yunyao handed over the matter to Liu Liang and then went to do the rest without worries. When dusk arrived, Liu Liang replied back and forth, “Miss, we’ve already found out where the beggar you were talking about is staying. Along with the young girl who spoke to you today, she’s also from Ci You Bureau.”

Mu Yunyao was a little surprised. “Ci You Bureau?”

“Yes, that is the place specially used to adopt the lonely elder and young children in Jingling City. That young girl is called Cai Qing, and the child you spoke with is called Nan’er, who arrived outside the courtyard a few days ago. Cai Qing had even learned embroidery needle techniques, but only learned half of it. There was a child in Ci You Bureau who got an accident, and she went back to look after the child, so she got delayed.”

“Interesting. Let’s take a look first.”

“Mistress, do you need people? I have already recruited some people. If you are needed, feel free to tell me.”

Mu Yunyao was slightly surprised. She didn’t ask any further after giving him the money. She didn’t expect that Liu Liang would actually found someone available in such a short time. “You can trust them?”

“Absolutely.” He nodded.

Looking at his determined appearance, Mu Yunyao suddenly asked, “Liu Liang, speaking of which, I still don’t know what your real name is? What did you do before?”

The reason why she could believe in Liu Liang’s character was that she had seen him by Jin w.a.n.g’s side in her previous life. Moreover, he had been loyal to Jin w.a.n.g from the beginning to the end. But, whether it was in the past or the present, she was totally ignorant about his history.

Liu Liang suddenly stiffened and unexpectedly kneeled down in front of Mu Yunyao. “I don’t remember. But please rest a.s.sured that I will never betray you, Mistress.”

Seeing his big reaction, Mu Yunyao, who had initially asked casually, suddenly had some thoughts in her heart. She carefully examined him with a cold gaze, “If I didn’t believe you, I wouldn’t have given my family life and mine in your hands. Get up, if you’re not willing to say it, so why bother to orchestrate yourself not to remember?”

Liu Liang is still kneeling on the ground, with a firm and stubborn look on his face.

Mu Yunyao’s forehead creased, and a hint of anger instantly filled her heart. “What? Are you not even willing to listen to my orders?”

Liu Liang quickly looked up with fear in his eyes. “Mistress, I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just …”

“Okay, do not doubt the use of others, and it’s not like you’ve been following me for a long time. If I didn’t trust you, I would have chased you away long ago. I was just casually asking. But it looks like you’ve got something in your mind.”

Liu Liang was not good at words. Now that Mu Yunyao had said it like this, he didn’t know how to answer it. Looking at his wooden appearance, Mu Yunyao smiled helplessly in her heart. She already knew what this person looked like, so why should she be angry at him: “Get up. If you don’t want to say it, then I won’t ask. Since you have someone that can use, then help me to look at Steward Qin’s movements. In a few days, he’ll probably send people to other places to collect fresh leaves to make tea. I need to understand some things, but I can’t completely let them go.”

Although she and Yue w.a.n.g were working together, they might end up enemies someday. It was better to be on guard against them.

“Yes, Mistress.”

“Let your people be more careful. They’d rather loosen up their surveillance than let anyone find out.”

“Please be at ease, Mistress. I will definitely give them a good warning.”

“Mm, you can leave.”

After Liu Liang left, Mu Yunyao raised her head and thought for a moment. Then, she slightly relaxed the s.p.a.ce between her eyebrows: At present, Liu Liang is still trustworthy. I only hope that he can always be like this.

The next morning, Mu Yunyao went to Jin Xiu Garden again. Thinking of the child at the entrance, she made a detour to the main entrance. At the door, the child called Nan’er was indeed there. When he saw her, he revealed a look of hesitation. “Greetings, Miss.”

“Your sister isn’t here today, but do you want to come with me to the garden to eat some snacks?” Mu Yunyao saw that he was thin. But his eyes were so bright, and she seemed to like him a little.

When Nan’er heard this, his eyes lit up. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head and said, “Many thanks, Young Miss. But my elder sister said that we couldn’t accept a favor without merit. I don’t do anything for Miss, so I can’t eat your food.” Not accepting a reward without work? This child is fascinating.
