Nan Baoyi thanked Xiao Yi and rushed back to Jinyi Pavilion.

She took out the silver coins from the treasure box and counted them. There were 2,500 taels in total, including the red envelopes that the elders usually rewarded, and the lucky money she saved herself.

Two thousand five hundred taels is not a small sum, not to mention buying an actor, even buying a troupe is enough.

"I'm so rich..."

Having experienced the lack of clothing and food in the previous life, Nan Baoyi was very happy with the silver ticket, and hurriedly summoned Lotus Ye to prepare her to leave the house in a carriage.

He Ye has two big heads, "Little Ancestor, you have just recovered from your illness. What are you doing out of the house at this time? Don't worry about it. If something happens, how will the servants explain to the old lady and the third master?"

Nan Baoyi hid the silver note in her small purse, and cleverly made up an excuse: "Grandma's yard is strange and lonely, since she likes to listen to dramas, I will go to Liyuan to buy her two actors to keep in the mansion, and I can listen to it anytime I want. It's great to hear you. I'm filial, and my grandmother won't blame me for leaving the house without permission."

He Ye couldn't resist her, so he had to greet the carriage for her.

After half an hour, Nan Baoyi's carriage stopped steadily along the street.

She helped He Ye's hand to get out of the car and looked up. This is the largest pear orchard in Jinguan City. The four characters "Yulouchun" are inscribed on the plaque, which is very rich and elegant.

She made it clear to the steward in the garden, who looked at her a few times and said with a smile, "I don't know how old the girl wants to buy an actor? It just so happened that the boss has trained a few new actresses, all of them are twelve or thirteen-year-old girls. A pretty-"

Nan Baoyi took a silver spear and handed it to him, "The actor I want to buy has quite a history, you can't be the master, I want to talk to your boss."

The steward looked at her with a smile. The little girl in front of her was young and delicate, probably a young lady Jiaojiao who had never seen the world. She went to Liyuan to make a fool of herself, relying on how much money she had at home.

He said: "Our boss is very busy, and I'm afraid I don't have time to play with the girl. I can make decisions up and down the pear orchard. Even if the girl wants to buy the pillars of our pear garden, I will also be the master!"

"There's no need for a pillar... The actor I want to buy is called Liu Xiaomeng, is the steward the master?"

Manage a quirk.

He stared at Nan Baoyi incredulously, the little girl was squeamish, but her phoenix eyes, which were hooked inward and warped outward, seemed to be thickened with ink, filled with gloom and gloom that did not match her age.

He stammered: "You, how did you know Liu Xiaomeng?"

Nan Baoyi smiled slightly, "Take me to see your boss."

The steward had to lead her into Yulouchun's elegant seat.

The aroma of the wine filled the air, and a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old was half-bared, leaning lazily on the couch of the imperial concubine with a wine jar, raised her eyelids and glanced at her, suffocated her wine, and chuckled, "You want to buy Liu Xiaomeng? "

Nan Baoyi never expected that the boss of Yulouchun was actually a woman.

So young and beautiful!

Nan Baoyi nodded, "Girl make a price."

The girl was full of coquettishness, "Are you the fifth miss of the Nan family? You can find out that Liu's prostitution contract is still in Yulouchun at a young age, and he is more capable than your father."

She raised her head and took a sip of wine, her eyes gleaming with clarity, "For the sake of Fifth Young Lady's intelligence, the price is 50,000 taels of silver with snow patterns."

"Fifty thousand taels?!" Nan Baoyi lost his voice.

"I think Fifth Young Lady hates the Liu family very much. As long as she holds her deed of prostitution, she will not be able to enter the Nanfu. It's all up to you. 50,000 taels, buying your free and clean back house is a very cost-effective deal. …”

The girl drank slowly, and the drink slipped down her fair and slender neck into the ruffle skirt, becoming charming and romantic.

She raised her sleeves and pressed the corner of Yanhong's mouth, "Otherwise, when Mrs. Liu becomes the third lady of the Nan family, I will ask your father for money using a deed of consignment, but it will be more than fifty thousand taels."

In the past and present life, Nan Baoyi had never come into contact with such a businessman who used long lines to catch big fish.

Their Nanjia business is honest and kind,

Don't deceive people like that!

She shouted profiteers in her heart, but her face remained calm, "As far as I know, Yulouchun nominally makes a living by singing songs and selling tea, but in fact, you raise beautiful girls and let them When they grow up, they will be concubines, and when they give birth to children, they will have a stable status, and then use their deeds to make a fuss and demand a high ransom from the host. I just don’t know, what will happen to Yu Louchun if the government finds out?”

This is Nan Baoyi's guess.

Because in Jinguan City, many rich and powerful families like to take beautiful actors as concubines.

She bet that there are not a few people like Liu Xiaomeng!

She used this threat, and the other party was willing to at least give her some discount in order to keep her mouth shut.

Seeing that the girl on the imperial concubine's couch just smiled and said nothing, she became more and more sure of her guess.

She tugged at the veil and summoned her courage: "For ten thousand taels of silver, I want to buy Liu Xiaomeng's life contract!"

"make a deal."

The other party agreed very readily, and Nan Baoyi couldn't help but gulp blood in his chest.

In the end, she doesn't go shopping very much, she seems to have less bargaining...

She had to continue with a sullen face: "I will raise money as soon as possible. Before that, I hope you don't leak the news."

The girl is full of charm, "I am the most honest in business, you can rest assured."

Nan Baoyi pouted.

Which actor in the world can sell for a high price of 10,000 taels, this girl is not blackmailing or what, but also honest, damn honest!

But in the end one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, she didn't say much.

When returning to the mansion, the carriage slowly passed through the bustling and bustling long street.

Nan Baoyi opened the corner of the curtain. This street is called Hanlin Street, which specializes in selling the four treasures of the study, ancient books of scriptures and history, and antiques of calligraphy and painting. The scholars and writers of Shu County like to shop here.

Xiao Yi gave her the idea of ​​taking chestnuts out of the fire. Should she buy him a gift?

The little girl pondered, and He Ye suddenly reminded: "Look, girl, isn't that Nan Yan?"

Looking at Nan Baoyi, a girl in a white dress with a weak willow Fufeng stepped into a Wenzhai with a genuine style, but it was not Nan Yan.

"The slave-maid listened to the people in the mansion and said that Nan Yan's elder brother was studying in Wanchun Academy, and he was going to take the imperial examination in two years. I think she came here to buy the four treasures of the study for her brother."

Nan Baoyi bent her lips: "Let's go and see..."

Stepping into Baoyanzhai, Nan Baoyi heard the shopkeeper's warm voice:

"Miss Nan, the stone of this Duan Inkstone comes from the Purple Cloud Valley of Lanke Mountain. The old master polished it with his own hands. You can touch the smooth and delicate hand, and then look at the carving pattern of Yuyue Longmen. There is absolutely nothing on the market that can compare with it. The inkstone! You said that you have seen it three or five times, so this time you just bought it neatly, right?"

Nan Yan reserved: "I really like this inkstone, otherwise I wouldn't come to see it every once in a while. It's just that your price is too high, can't it be cheaper? "

The shopkeeper laughed, "The girl really likes to joke, who doesn't know that you are the girl of the Nan family, the Nan family is rich and rivals the country, and only a thousand taels of silver, what does it mean to you?"

Nan Yan bit her lip and stared at the inkstone without speaking.

Although her father is the third master of the Nan family, the old woman of the Nan family manages it strictly. Daddy doesn't have much money on hand, and the pocket money he gives her on weekdays is pitiful.

Her brother's birthday is coming up, she really wants to give her a decent gift, this inkstone is her favorite, the carving of Yu Yuelongmen is so auspicious, she really doesn't want to give up...

I don't know what to do when suddenly there is a faint scent of hibiscus.

She turned her head, and the slender and charming girl came slowly.

The girl wore a beautiful double flat bun, a light pink shirt and skirt, and a string of precious and delicate pearls hung around her waist. The pair of woven gold shoes on her feet were actually made of Shu brocade.

It's Nan Baoyi...

When the person he hated the most saw his embarrassment, the blood all over Nan Yan's body rushed to his head.

Her beautiful face flushed red, "What a coincidence, I met my sister here... Is my sister here to buy things too?"
