The outer chamber is not what I want, the general will send you a sword!

Chapter 172 Sunflower Field

When Xia Jin woke up, Lin Ziyi went to the court, and there were many things that he needed to deal with in the court today.

I asked for leave yesterday, but today I have to deal with the accumulated military affairs.

Xia Jin changed into men's clothes and left the General's Mansion.

Today is the official opening day of Zhuifeng Express, Xia Jin has to go to cut the ribbon.

As soon as he arrived at the scene, he saw that the gate was already full of people. Seeing Xia Jin coming, Mo Tuo rushed to meet him.

Xia Jin took the scissors, cut the silk and satin amidst the sound of firecrackers, and tore off the red silk covered with the plaque of Zhuifeng Express.

Chasing Wind Express officially opened for business, and the first order ushered in by the opening was an order for Linniang to deliver mineral veins.

But Xia Jin didn't want to open an escort agency, what Xia Jin wanted to open was a courier service!
And this needs to set up transfer stations and complete routes in each city. Xia Jin has already ordered Mo Tuo to do it well.

Otherwise, it would not have waited so long to open!
After the grand opening ceremony, Xia Jin ordered someone to take out a bulletin board.

There is a bulletin board with prices and times for shipping items.

"Items that originally took seven days to be delivered have now been shortened to two days. Not only that, the price is also half the price!"

"real or fake!"

Everyone was discussing, and then someone came in with the attitude of trying.

Not long after, I received one after another.

The more orders that need to be shipped, the more bodyguards are needed.

Xia Jin had already considered this point. During this period of time, Mu Da became the overlord in Tongluo Lane and took in a group of younger brothers.

I learned that they are going to open a large bodyguard agency, plus the rewards are generous, food and drink are included, and there is also a voluntary service to take care of family members after accidents.

Without saying a word, they joined in.

A boss who wants to take advantage of everything can't keep people. If he wants to keep people, he has to let the other party have no worries, so that he can wholeheartedly work for Zhuifeng Express!
Zhuifeng Express opened successfully, and next, Xia Jin had to solve the problem of spices that caused Xia Jin the most headache.

It is also a coincidence that the two merchants from the Kingdom of Jin who had been helped by Qin Haoou knew a merchant who sold spices outside the region, and they were recommended by him, and they quickly contacted him.

With Zhefeng Express, the problem of spices in Shishentang and Deshenglou was solved by bringing spices back from outside the territory.

The business is in full swing, and the food hall is often full of diners.

Xia Jin trained some chefs and asked Mama Zhang to take them to Wangxi Town to continue to open the God of Food Hall there.

It's been a while since I've been away, and the shop has been empty.

It just so happened that Zhuifeng Express opened now, the problem of spices was solved, and I had extra financial resources to open a second Food God Hall.

Next, Xia Jin plans to open a chain store in every place where Zhefeng Express is available.

During this time, Lin Ziyi has been busy with military matters, and it has been a month and a half since he left last time.

For the past one and a half months, Xia Jin has been very busy.

However, now that everything is finally settled, Xia Jin can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The sun was just right, Xia Jin was sitting on a wicker chair in the yard, holding pearl milk tea in her hand, basking in the sun.

It's summer now, so I can get some sun in the morning, and the skin will peel off at noon.

Fortunately, we have a good student like Li Qiang, the house is never short of ice cubes, even though it is already summer, there are ice cubes in the house to cool down, but it doesn't feel too hot.

However, if you go out, you will sweat profusely after a while, and your clothes will be soaked in the heat.

When Xia Jin was in her own yard, she only wore short sleeves, but if she wore it like this when going out, she would be said to be indecent.

Xia Jin was holding the blueprint, thinking that since they couldn't change their thinking, then they should change their trend.

Design several short-sleeved skirts, open a clothing store, and set off a fashion trend in the capital. In this way, everyone will wear short-sleeved skirts, and no one will say anything indecent.

"Ma'am, the old lady invites you to come over." Outside, the maid reported.

Xia Jin got up, put on a thin coat and went out, asking the maid while walking.

"Grandma is looking for me, what's the matter?"

"Today is Mrs. Qi's birthday, the old lady should be attending the birthday banquet!" said the maid.

Xia Jin has been busy for the past few days, so she forgot about it!
A few days ago, the old matriarch did tell her that she was going to attend a banquet at Madam Qi's mansion.

Mrs. Qi is the same age as the old lady. She used to be a good friend of the old lady, and now she is an old best friend. She also walks around on weekdays.

Therefore, at Madam Qi's invitation, it is natural to go.

"I'm going to change clothes!"

Xia Jin went back to the house and chose a dress suitable for a banquet. It's better to keep a low profile on this occasion, after all Xia Jin doesn't like to be the center of attention.

Compared with the content of the banquet, she was more concerned about whether the food at the banquet was good or not.

After getting dressed, Xia Jin went to the main courtyard.

Seeing Xia Jin coming and getting dressed, the old lady nodded in satisfaction.

"Jin'er, let's go!"

Xia Jin walked over and helped the old lady up.

The two left the General's Mansion and boarded the carriage to Qi's Mansion.

"Madam Qi is easy-going, she likes to sit when she gets there, and she doesn't like to listen to us, so she goes for a walk in the yard. Madam Qi loves sunflowers and has planted a field of flowers in the backyard. Come and have a look!" the old lady said. Said.

Xia Jin became a little interested in the sunflower field.

Not long after, when they arrived at the banquet, Mrs. Qi had no power, she was just an ordinary old woman, widowed in her early years, raised a couple of children by herself, and became a moderate official.

He is not promising, but he is upright, and there is nothing wrong with him.

However, this birthday banquet was a little deserted, after all, most people who came to the banquet came with a purpose.

If there is no profit to be made, there will be no extra effort to maintain redundant interpersonal communication.

Seeing the old matriarch coming, Mrs. Qi greeted her, and several old sisters gathered around to chat about the housework.

The old lady is right, she is really not interested...

Just in time, go and see the sunflower field in the backyard!
Xia Jin went out of the hall, walked around a garden, and saw a golden sunflower, and at this moment, many ladies had already come here.

It seems that there are many ladies who don't like to chat with the old lady and the others.

Before they got close, they heard a burst of laughter, as if something interesting was happening over there.

Xia Jin poked her head over to look, and was stunned with just one glance!
I saw that this group of young ladies was surrounding a young boy with a chain around his neck, crawling on the ground like a dog, eating the food thrown by those young ladies on the ground with his mouth.

That dog-like appearance made these ladies laugh.

If the young man is disobedient, someone will whip him from behind, and the young man will continue to eat the food on the ground.

The boy raised his head and saw Xia Jin standing behind him inadvertently, and was stunned with just one glance.

"..."

"Why didn't you move!" After being whipped in the back, the boy let out a pain, but he didn't move, but stared at Xia Jin firmly.

"Oh, I owe you a beating, right?"

The man whipped the whip again, leaving a bloodstain on the boy's back.

"stop!"

Xia Jin walked over quickly and stood in front of the boy.

The men, including these young ladies, all looked at him with weird eyes. The man who had just beaten the boy viciously recognized Xia Jin's identity and put on a flattering look.

"Madam General, he is just a slave, like a beast!"

"In my eyes, he is alone!" Xia Jin angrily grabbed the chain around the boy's neck, pinched it hard, and it broke with a click!
