Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 82
Zhu Xiuyuan glanced sideways and saw Dong Shuyu's distant mountain-like brows frowning slightly.

"How is this situation?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked curiously.

"Although this situation is rare, it is not unheard of."

Dong Shuyu turned around and faced Zhu Xiuyuan with a worried look on his face.

"It's just that every time this happens, it means... there will be a flood!"

Zhu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, then pretended to smile casually and said, "A flood of water? It shouldn't be the case!"

"I hope so!" Dong Shuyu nodded, "But our Jiangzhou City is close to the Yangtze River. If the water in the Yangtze River surges..."

Dong Shuyu couldn't speak any more.

Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly remembered that among the past stories about Dong Shuyu that Dong Yi and Dong Er had told him, there was this incident: There once was a young man in Ezhou who wanted to marry Dong Shuyu, but they all hired him. As a result, there was a flood in Ezhou, and the young man Unfortunately it was flooded!

……

The topic of making a big splash was a bit heavy, and neither of them wanted to continue talking.

The two of them continued walking along the corridor, and the delicate atmosphere threatened to become awkward again.

"By the way, have you found the purple sand mines in 'Huanglong Mountain' and 'Qinglong Mountain' in Yixing County?"

Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly thought of this question.

"Both the 'Huanglong Mountain' and 'Qinglong Mountain' in Yixing County have been found and purchased. The craftsmen we sent are working hard to excavate the two mountains. I believe there will be harvest soon."

"That's great!" Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, "If the purple sand mine is discovered, we must not leak any information. Everything must be kept confidential!"

"Why is this?" Dong Shuyu asked curiously.

"Because the value of the purple clay pot is too high! Since ancient times, rare things have been valued. This purple clay mine is extremely rare, and the fired purple clay pot is naturally also extremely rare. And the purple clay pot is very exquisite... How should I say, you can Treat it like jade..."

"That's it!" Dong Shuyu nodded slowly.

When they passed the Fuzhong Garden along the corridor, Dong Shuyu said again: "Xiuyuan, when the 'Huanglong' and 'Qinglong' mountains are excavated, you may need to go to Yixing County in person, Xiuyuan." Because the craftsmen don't know what the purple sand mine looks like, they naturally can't mine it, and they will trouble you then."

"It's natural. I'll go there myself when the time comes..." The two of them continued chatting about the "purple sand mine".

Then they talked about the business of the tea house, and the two of them said something to each other, completely dispelling the embarrassment.

When he walked to the east courtyard, Zhu Xiuyuan learned through chatting that the business of Dong's Tea House was actually getting better and better.

The name of the new tea also spreads around at a rare speed.

At present, in addition to regular customers from several surrounding counties who often visit tea houses, customers from farther states and counties, such as Yuezhou, Tanzhou, Yuanzhou, Fuzhou, Shezhou, Quzhou, etc., all come to tea houses to buy tea.

There are even guests coming from as far away as Runzhou Health City.

They were either the retainers of the powerful people of the day or the servants of wealthy gentry. They were very enthusiastic about the new tea and they all flocked to it!

Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't help but think: "The popularity of fried tea is far beyond my expectation. Do the ancients like drinking new tea so much? My father-in-law just joined the army as a clerk, and I...don't mention it. I wonder if I can keep this place in the future. A share of the family business..."

Zhu Xiuyuan was slightly worried.

……

"Uncle, eldest lady!"

Qiu Wen suddenly came over. After seeing the two of them, she was obviously stunned and felt unnatural.

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuyu looked over after hearing the sound, and saw Qiu Wen holding a teapot in her hand, with white gas coming out of the spout.

"It's Qiu Wen."

Zhu Xiuyuan noticed Qiu Wen's unnaturalness, but did not point it out.

After walking into Dong Shuzhen's boudoir with Dong Shuyu, he looked up and his eyes suddenly froze.

After being stunned for a while, I immediately thought of Qiu Wen's unnatural behavior just now.
