Chapter 51 第51章 Seed 萌芽 „I with that Gu Yanzhen, doesn't matter.” “我跟那个顾燕桢,没有关系。” The ray that in the darkness only then in one side house transmits, the Qinhuai River water current sound passes on with the wind sound/rumor, night fog like mountain. Ning Yi looks at her expression, this time nods bright. 黑暗中只有一侧房屋中传来的光芒,秦淮河水流声随着风声传过来,夜雾如山。宁毅看着她那表情,这次才朗然点头。 „Um, knew.” Passes the moment, pondered, „that you relate Ah? with he actually anything” “嗯,知道了。”过得片刻,又想了想,“那你跟他到底什么关系啊？” The Nie Yunzhu expression also brings earnestly, listened to these words, on the face the expression is complex, seems like struggles is wanting to stress that earnest the expression continues, such stretched for several seconds, finally cannot bear pū smile. 聂云竹原本表情还带着认真,听了这句话,脸上表情复杂,似乎是挣扎着想要将认真的强调表情持续下去,就那样绷了几秒钟,终于忍不住噗的笑出来。 „Before person of Goldwind House understanding.” “以前在金风楼认识的人。” She has a look at Ning Yi, why does not know, just now Ning Yi asks Gu Yanzhen, in her heart somewhat is suddenly anxious. Does not know that the opposite party heard what words, how in the heart thinks, how went to confess diligently is best. At this time when actually also because of of opposite party, she said again, in the heart unexpectedly is mighty waves does not bring, fleeting clouds, light winds chatted in front of the building when like former everyone was the same. Ning Yi paused: „Couple days ago listened to you to mention, is very famous talent?” 她看看宁毅,不知道为什么,方才宁毅问起顾燕桢,她心中陡然有些紧张。不知道对方听到了什么话,心中是如何想的,努力去想怎样坦白才最好。这时候却也因为对方的这句,她再说出来时,心中竟已是一点波澜都不带了,云淡风轻的如同之前大家在楼前聊天时一样。宁毅顿了顿:“前几天听你说起,是很有名的才子吧？” „Liheng has not listened, I find it strange.” “立恒没听过,我才觉得奇怪呢。” „Forgot.” Ning Yi shakes the head, „that present what's to be done?” “忘了。”宁毅摇了摇头,“那现在怎么办？” „I don't know either, already wants to make that side Er Niu (two cows) several relatives help, but has not thought temporarily.” Nie Yunzhu holds the chin, is somewhat worried, the matter that „originally, can handle are not many. To make a car, the selling point fried cake, showed that oneself is not completely uselessly also on that's all, to that Century Egg also thinks that like this, thinks that must sell for a long time some people to like very much, who knows is such several days, sold so many to go unexpectedly, does unable to do, too quick...... Um, I was very happy, after can, should what's to be done, really not think before. Liheng did you say?” “我也不知道啊,已经想让二牛那边的几个亲戚来帮忙了,但暂时还没有想好。”聂云竹托着下巴,也有些苦恼,“原本呢,会做的事情也不多。想要弄辆小车,卖点煎饼,证明自己不是完全无用也就罢了,对那松花蛋原也是这样想的,也以为要卖上很久才会有人喜欢,谁知就是这么几天,竟然卖出这么多去,做也做不过来了,太快了……嗯,我是很高兴啦,可以后应该怎么办,之前真是没想过。立恒你说呢？” „Century Egg...... do you want to continue to do?” “松花蛋……你想继续做下去吗？” „Will then not do business, therefore only planned sets up a stall......” person expensive/noble knew, Nie Yunzhu in Goldwind House so many years, the truly successful merchant also has seen much. Does business, sells the thing, has the profit to have the risk, something are not her disposition can easily make clearly, but: „Suddenly business such was good, puts unable to do...... to feel at present strangely was a pity......” “原本便不会做生意啊,所以只打算摆个小摊的……”人贵自知,聂云竹在金风楼那么多年,真正成功的商人也见过不少。做生意,卖东西,有利润就有风险,有些事情不是她的心性可以轻易弄得清楚的,不过:“突然生意这么好,摆在眼前做不了……又觉得怪可惜的……” „Then the matter becomes somewhat troublesome.” “接下来事情会变得有些麻烦。” „Um?” “嗯？” „Century Egg will sell many, you will invite some people, the initial 1-2 months, the sales volume will expand, especially...... after at the Kang Xian also within the home banquet propagandizes one, Emerald Egg and Riches and Honors Egg...... fall short of demand, you will continue the expansion, the new thing is this......” “松花蛋会卖得更多,你会请一些人,最初的1-2月,销量会扩大,特别是……在康贤也在家中宴席上宣传一番之后,翡翠蛋、富贵蛋……供不应求,你会继续扩大规模,新东西都是这样……” Ning Yi took a branch, is saying at will, while goes in the ground picture: „At this time you will discover that oneself lacks the management experience, originally the person with some slightly ripe point, the small workshop that for example the Er Niu (two cows) relative and friend make into, various clashes can start to appear. Then another side, Century Egg starts some people to imitate, three months, almost can come out, perhaps also slightly early, if keep secret strictly, drag less than four months later......” 宁毅拿了根树枝,一边随意说着,一边在地上画来画去:“这个时候你会发现自己缺乏管理经验,本来是用一些稍微熟一点的人,譬如二牛的亲戚、朋友弄成的小作坊,各种磕磕碰碰会开始出现了。然后另一边,松花蛋开始有人仿制,三个月,差不多就可以出来了,或许还稍微早一点,如果保密严格,也拖不到四个月之后……” „The Century Egg flow technique content is not high, you drag the dry firewood to come back to burn every day, buy the pulverized lime, these matter people with high aspirations check to check. Now had/left the roll-call, is the condition of falling short of demand, in several Alehouse scopes starts to spread, perhaps stared on some already people, you sold Century Egg, above had has not washed the clean mud powder trace, the method that the opposite party served as the salty duck egg does the experiment, the issue was not big. If the expansion makes a small workshop, exposes the approach, is the simple matter.” “松花蛋的流程本身技术含量不高,你每天拖干柴回来烧,买石灰粉,这些事情有心人一查就能查到。现在出了点名,又是供不应求的状态,几个酒楼的范围内开始传开,说不定就已经有人盯上来了,你卖松花蛋,上面有没洗干净的泥粉痕迹,对方用做咸鸭蛋的方法做实验,问题不大。而如果扩大规模弄个小作坊,暴露做法,也是更加简单的事情。” „On simple, the price war, the person who can be were then getting more and more, they will also cause some new ways of eating, 20 writing sells does not come up, you can only reduce prices, they also reduce prices, more people will do, and finally, sold Century Egg also with selling the sesame seed cake similarly...... Uh......” “然后就简单了,价格战,会做的人越来越多,他们还会弄出一些新吃法来,二十文卖不上去,你只能降价,他们也降价,更多的人会做,到了最后,卖松花蛋也就跟卖烧饼差不多了……呃……” Ning Yi is saying, turned head to look at the past, Nie Yunzhu is also holding the chin to turn head to look, in the eye was some happy expressions. Ning Yi curls the lip, refers to her with the branch: „When the time comes, you will receive the attack.” 宁毅说着,扭头望过去,聂云竹也正托着下巴扭头望过来,眼中似是有些笑意。宁毅撇了撇嘴,拿树枝指她一下:“到时候,你会收到打击。” What Nie Yunzhu thinks is other things: „Actually Liheng is very fierce at these matters, yes?” 聂云竹想到的是其它的事情:“其实立恒在这些事上很厉害,是吧？” „Um? Which matters?” “嗯？哪些事？” „Does business.” “做生意。” The Ning Yi silent moment, soon after said: „The old monster reincarnation who I can do business, can could it be also tell you?” 宁毅沉默片刻,随后道:“我是很会做生意的老妖怪转生的,难道也要告诉你吗？” The Nie Yunzhu pursing the lips chuckle, soon after caressed ear bank hair: „Actually I have wanted to ask, Century Egg can sell so many suddenly, has the relations with Liheng?” 聂云竹抿嘴轻笑,随后抚了抚耳畔的发丝:“其实我一直想问,松花蛋忽然能卖出去这么多,跟立恒有关系吗？” „Makes a bet, must do something, is not good to wait to lose.” Ning Yi smiled, „at first truly is my idea, now looked like an accident/surprise, outsmarted oneself, poured increased the burden to you. If we had known asked some idlers, to stop well, because actually it is estimated that arrived at you unable to make so many, I also made Old Kang not do to publicize on Emperor's Son-in-Law Residence specially randomly......” “打了赌,总得做些事的,不好等着输吧。”宁毅笑了起来,“最初确实是我的想法,现在看来出了点意外,弄巧成拙了,倒给你增加了负担。早知道只是请些闲人,点到即止就好,其实因为估计到你做不了这么多,我还特意让康老别在驸马府上乱做宣扬……” „Originally is really this.” She muttered this, the corners of the mouth secreted a happy expression, „did Liheng look for the request?” “原来真是这样啊。”她喃喃说这,嘴角泌出一丝笑意,“立恒找了托？” Ning Yi nods. 宁毅点点头。 „But isn't Liheng...... does not know Gu Yanzhen?” “可立恒……不是不认识顾燕桢吗？” „That morning met Li Pin, spoke thoughtlessly to mention this matter, he said that several friends were in any case bored, can help, wants to come is some talent and so on. I did not know, perhaps that Gu Yanzhen is one of them , makes a bet with Old Kang has agreed that does not take the reputation to create the propaganda as this Century Egg...... Uh, remembers that your 2nd day me told Century Egg did sell six? Heh, four are I buys.” “那天早上遇上李频,随口提了这事,他说有几个朋友横竖无聊,可以帮忙,想来是些才子之类。我不认识,那顾燕桢或许就在其中吧,跟康老打赌之时约定过,不以名声为这松花蛋做宣传……呃,记得你第二天跟我说松花蛋卖出了六只吗？呵,有四只都是我买的。” Nie Yunzhu narrowed the eye, a face suddenly: „Ah…... I am strange, why Alehouse small two will buy four Century Egg suddenly, Liheng pushing a cart to do well, first day, originally...... Heh......” 聂云竹眯了眯眼睛,一脸恍然:“啊……我还奇怪呢,为什么酒楼小二会忽然来买四只松花蛋,立恒把推车弄好,才第一天呢,原来……呵……” Before daybreak the dim light of night, in the sky the also has star, Nie Yunzhu raised the head to smile, many things, within the heart was broadmindedly bright. 黎明前的夜色,天空中还有星星,聂云竹抬头笑了起来,许多事情,在心中豁然明朗了。 „Does Liheng feel this/should what's to be done?” “立恒觉得该怎么办呢？” „Thought that interesting does in a big way, no meaning stops. Looked that you thought was interesting.” “觉得有意思就做大,没意思就停下来。看你觉得是不是有意思了。” „Actually also has the sense of achievement, thought that oneself is very fierce. But I also know that oneself is cannot, Liheng...... will teach me?” “其实也蛮有成就感的,觉得自己很厉害。可我也知道自己是不会的,立恒……会教我吗？” The silence of faint, Ning Yi looks at her one eyes: „...... Good.” 微微的沉默,宁毅看她一眼:“……好。” Early morning of Wu Dynasty Jǐng-Hàn eight years of March/three months, this light voice, resounds before Qinhuai Riverbank daybreak in the mist. soon after is only some trivial minor matters, the dining, chain, highly liquor and industry chain and so on at sixes and sevens, the two people before small building stair like ordinary speech, regarding anything, are on the contrary unimportant. In the rear small building room, the maidservant named Hutao (walnut) lies on the window sighs, in the heart is still worrying for own Young Lady. 武朝景翰八年三月的清晨,这一句淡淡的嗓音,响起在秦淮河畔黎明前的雾气中。随后只是一些琐琐碎碎的小事,餐饮、连锁、高度酒、产业链之类的乱七八糟,小楼台阶前的两人如平常般的说着话,至于说什么,反倒不重要了。后方小楼的房间里,名叫胡桃的侍女趴在窗户上叹了口气,心中兀自为自家小姐担忧着。 White fog flowing and dispersing, the sunlight rises, in Jiangning City the crowd moves. We pick up its speed, sets ahead the path of Sun, when the time is close to noon, lets loose finger. Nie Yunzhu is taking a small package at this time, inundates walks on the street that the store in the city converges without goal, because Hutao (walnut) is defending the shop with Er Niu (two cows) currently. 白雾流动、散开,阳光升起来,江宁城中人群活动。我们加快它的速度,拨快太阳的轨迹,当时间接近中午时分,才放开手指。聂云竹此时正拿着个小包裹,漫无目的地走在城市中商铺云集的街道上,因为胡桃跟二牛目前正在守着铺子。 If several days custom, she will hurry back to think before this time hastily how to increase the Century Egg output, in the afternoon should buy the firewood to where, which price measures to be cheaper. But today is somewhat different, starting from the morning, she was closely being coerced by a state of mind, in the heart train of thought surges, to at this time, has not had subsides slightly. 若以前几日的习惯,她这时候会连忙赶回去想着怎么增加松花蛋的产量,下午该到哪里去买木柴,权衡哪儿的价格更便宜。但今天有些不一样,从早晨开始,她就被一种心绪紧紧裹胁着,心中思绪翻腾,到得此时,也未有丝毫平息。 Since Hutao (walnut) said „Young Lady you unable to marry him” —— to her to be perhaps earlier few days ago, since she detected own certain moods —— to the entanglements of these days Gu Yanzhen, the Century Egg business that has developed suddenly with aggravating the burden raids together, her state of mind, actually somewhat has been erratically absent-minded. But today is not this, throughout the morning she was very happy, the mood is open, various types of haze sweep away. 自前些日子胡桃对她说出“小姐你嫁不了他的”以来——或许还更早,从她察觉到自己的某些心情以来——到这几日顾燕桢的纠缠,陡然拓开的松花蛋生意与加重的负担一同袭来,她的心绪,其实一直有些恍惚不定。但今天不是这样,一整个上午她都很高兴,心情开朗,各种阴霾一扫而空。 Distant she sees a Su's Textiles flag, the such arrange/cloth signboard to see frequently, Jiangning has several Su branch stores, because in the past the relations of Ning Yi she not looked, but this she stood in the roadside time calmly looked some little time, looked in the shop the guest guest toward, the business was busy. 远远的她看见一个苏记布行的旗子,这样的布招牌常常看见,江宁有好几家苏记的分铺,以往由于宁毅的关系她都不怎么多看,但这一次她站在路边静静地看了好一会儿,看店铺中客来客往,生意繁忙。 In today the brain often resounded these words that Ning Yi speaks, that the nod said „good” as well as afterward some. 脑中不时响起今天宁毅说的那些话,点头说的那句“好”以及后来的一些。 „......, but, only then a point you must remember, I want you to remember why now actually decides to go a step further, even now money are not many, you still cross very happily, you want pancake stand, proving oneself can make a lot, this is Young Lady Yunzhu that I know. If in the future one day, walked is too quick, you must remember that your present mood, should stop stops, should fall back to draw back, do not force things reluctantly, exempts obtains finally on the contrary the sacrificing the substance for the shadow, forgot oneself to want anything. The been able to grip sand, raised it conveniently. Even if returns to now here, you have not lost anything......” “……不过,只有一点你要记住,我要你记得现在到底是为什么而决定进一步的,就算现在钱不多,你也过得很开心,你只是想有个煎饼摊,证明自己可以做成很多事情,这才是我认识的云竹姑娘。如果将来有一天,走的太快,你要记得你现在的心情,该停就停,该退就退,不要勉强,免得到最后反倒舍本逐末,忘了自己要什么。握不住的沙,随手扬了它。即便回到现在这里,你也没有失去什么……” After the nod, something that Liheng said are very optional, he takes the branch to draw at a ground point, by no means cares or is the appearance of having a familiar task and handling it with ease, „or” makes this, „or” makes that. Only has these words, seriousness that he said that soon after as if also self-ridicules smiles, does not know that thinks of anything. This saying Nie Yunzhu remembered, but her then mood, actually and Ning Yi said was not quite same. 点头之后,立恒说的一些东西都很随意,他拿着树枝在地上点点画画,并不在意或者是驾轻就熟的样子,“或者”做这个,“或者”做那个。唯有这段话,他说的郑重,随后似乎也是自嘲地笑笑,不知道是想到些什么东西。这话聂云竹记住了,不过她当时的心情,却与宁毅说的不太一样。 Some matter and some moods, in happen quietly, Ning Yi also by no means knows. In fact, yesterday morning Ning Yi and Su Tan'er they go to the suburb to go for a walk, eat something, Chan'er Juan'er they fly a kite. The person of picnic are many, Ning Yi by no means knows, Nie Yunzhu and Hutao (walnut) have seen them from afar. 有些事情、有些心情,在悄然间发生,宁毅也并不知道。事实上,昨天上午宁毅与苏檀儿她们去郊外踏青,吃些东西,婵儿娟儿她们放放风筝。郊游的人多,宁毅并不知道,聂云竹与胡桃远远地看到过他们。 At that time Nie Yunzhu and Hutao (walnut) contacted with a Er Niu (two cows) fellow villager, then went to the countryside to buy the duck egg, came back, saw Ning Yi and Su Tan'er in that side. This is the first time that Nie Yunzhu saw Su Tan'er, looked at the past from afar, two people spoke on the lawn, indescribable complex feeling. In the morning when she and Ning Yi meets the mood was being surrounded by the low mood, soon after Ning Yi also asked the Gu Yanzhen matter suddenly, that flash she really thought that suddenly was twisted to be the same by anything. 那时聂云竹与胡桃联系到了二牛一个同乡,然后去乡下买鸭蛋,回来的时候,看见宁毅与苏檀儿在那边。这是聂云竹第一次见到苏檀儿,远远望过去,两人在草地上说话,难以言喻的复杂感觉。早晨她与宁毅见面时心情就被低落的情绪包围着,随后宁毅又忽然问起顾燕桢的事情,那一瞬间她真觉得忽然被什么东西绞住一样。 Was good is then released because of soon after this mood, but she saw Ning Yi, has remembered yesterday the lawn of suburb, remembered the attire magnificently and expensively young beautiful Su Tan'er, but, other mood gradually welled up, especially after the Ning Yi nod said oneself is the Century Egg behind-the-scenes promoter, this idea already had was very long, at this time suddenly became defined. Like the outside world such that said that will a such person, why marry into the wife's household? 好在随后这种心情便被释放掉了,但她看见宁毅,一直想起昨天郊外的草地,想起衣着华贵又年轻美丽的苏檀儿,不过,渐渐的另外一些情绪又涌了上来,特别是在宁毅点头说出自己是松花蛋的幕后推手之后,这想法已经有了很久,此时才陡然变得明晰。如同外界都在说的那样,这样的一个人,为何会去入赘呢？ And the reason does not go to manage it, but Nie Yunzhu thinks suddenly. Liheng he has poetic talent, to have business talent, he is passing the present every day leisurely and carefree living simply day, real every day is happy? She knew before not many about Su Residence, after buying freedom, did not have the informed sources, only knows that Su Residence is very rich, with the present her such common people is really above the skies and beneath the earth. Afterward because Ning Yi two words become famous, her actually many heard some news, said that Liheng not business talent, but Su Family Young Lady doing business was very fierce, in the future will even take over control of Su Family. But Liheng has business talent, his such ability, the nevertheless marrying into the wife's household status, can only continuously in the words that behind that Su Tan'er hides one's incompetence by remaining silent, how will he think? 理由且不去管它,但聂云竹忽然想。立恒他有诗才、有商才,他过着如今每天悠闲的淡泊日子,真的每天都开心吗？她以前对苏府了解不多,赎身之后更是没了消息来源,只知道苏府很有钱,跟如今她这样的普通百姓真是天上地下。后来宁毅因为两首词出了名,她却多少听到了一些消息,说立恒并无商才,而苏家小姐经商很厉害,将来甚至会接管苏家。可立恒有商才啊,他这样的才能,却是入赘身份,只能一直在那苏檀儿后方藏拙的话,他会怎么想呢？ Liheng solved the Century Egg matter at will, can have the meaning of wanting to remain in limelight, he cannot within the home make a move, therefore outside, conveniently for it. 立恒随意地解决了松花蛋的事情,会不会也有不甘寂寞的意思,他不能在家中出手,于是在外面,顺手为之。 Therefore she understands suddenly oneself can make anything. 于是她忽然明白了自己能做些什么。 Could become his tool, making Liheng on oneself show that he is fiercer than that Su Tan'er, if can arrive at that...... 也许能成为他的工具,让立恒在自己身上证明他比那苏檀儿更厉害,如果能到那一步…… She in essentially or disposition quiet and refined female. Some things not good to think, she holds the small package in the bosom, nips the lower lip gently, walks passed from the Su's Textiles entrance, past time, but also looked toward inside. Then purses the lips, is somewhat thinking childish: In the future her the shop, be greatly more than this...... 她在本质上还是心性娴静的女子。有些事情不好去想,她将小包裹抱在怀里,轻轻咬了咬下唇,从苏记布行的门口走过去了,过去的时候,还偏头朝里面看了看。然后抿了抿嘴,有些孩子气地想着:将来她的铺子,要比这个大很多很多……
