Chapter 12 The Beauty in the Picture

"Girl, the little man is the shopkeeper of this heavenly residence." The shopkeeper nodded to Hu Yimeng with a smile.

"I don't know what the shopkeeper calls it?"

"The villain's surname is Jia."

"Shopkeeper Jia." Hu Yimeng looked at the shopkeeper Jia, looked at the plate of marrow cake on the table and said, "In order to satisfy the appetite of diners, the little woman thought it was inappropriate to make this plate of marrow cake to kill dozens of animals. Everything in heaven and earth has life. If it is not a big deal if it is just to satisfy, but if it is slaughtered just to taste the marrow but to increase the killing, can you stop making this marrow cake?

Hu Yimeng can't stand such cruel food. She is an environmentalist. She dares not eat bone marrow such as monkeys, elephants and tigers.

"Yes, what the lady said is very true." Manager Jia smiled and looked at Hu Yimeng with a kind face, saying yes.

Hearing that the shopkeeper Jia also agreed with his opinion, Hu Yimeng smiled and said, "You take away the marrow cake and bring some full food. These dishes are too exquisite."

"Yes, please wait a moment." Manager Jia nodded, arched his hand to Hu Yimeng, and turned downstairs.

Shopkeeper Jia went downstairs and went around to an elegant room in the backyard.

He pushed the door and went in, bowed, lowered his head, and respectfully reported to the man sitting behind the desk, "Young master, the villain has gone to see the lady mentioned by Xiao Er, which is indeed very similar to the person in the painting."

The man is only 267, wearing a purple brocade robe, his hair is meticulously combed, and he wears a white jade hair crown on the top of his head. His face is white, his face is a little thin and long, his tall nose is slightly eagle hooked, his eyebrows are flying, his eyes are bright, and he is a shrewd and meticulous at first glance.

His name is Shen Qingxi, and he is the boss of the sky. At the same time, he is also one of the richest businessmen in the State of Dayu, and his other unknown identity is one of the most important advisors under Beichen Yeli, the emperor of the State of the State of Dayu, who secretly runs a large number of industries for him and earns huge wealth.

He raised his head and stared at the shopkeeper Jia, "Really?"

"Real seriously." Housekeeper Jia is very sure.

The woman in the painting that the young master showed them has a different spirit from that of ordinary people, and she has become a charming color, as if they are not ordinary people. The lady on the third floor is not only very similar to the woman in the painting, but also looks like the person in the painting. It can't be wrong.

I got the exact news from the shopkeeper Jia. I secretly searched for the master for three years and finally found the person in the painting. Shen Qingxi was secretly relieved.

He looked down at the charming woman in the painting.

The skin is as white as gel, black as black as black ink, looking forward to shine, smiling skillfully, and the eyes flow like delicate and anger. There is a natural charming color. It is really the posture of heaven and man, and it is difficult to find in the world.

Looking up again, Shen Qingxi already has a plan in his heart.

The time when this girl appeared was also really coincidental. He just received a letter from the Lord's flying pigeon, saying that he had secretly left Beijing and would come to Tianji City to secretly discuss with him about the corruption of the Wang family, and he would arrive tomorrow.

He only needs to order someone to leave the girl, and when the Lord arrives, he can personally verify whether the girl is the person he is looking for.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingxi ordered Shopkeeper Jia, "Shopkeeper Jia, you must find a way to keep her, take her back to Jia's house, and wait for the Lord to come to confirm in person tomorrow."

When Manager Jia returned to the third floor, he still had a generous smile on his face, personally holding a large tray of gold lacquerware with a steamer on the tray.

When he walked to Hu Yimeng's table, Hu Yimeng had already eaten.

"Miss, I asked the cook to steam a new cage of crab buns. You can taste it while it's hot." With that, Mr. Jia took the steamed bun from the tray and put it on the table in front of Hu Yimeng.

As soon as the cage drawer was opened, with the white steam, the fresh and fragrant taste overflowed.

Hu Yimeng's eyes lit up when he smelled the fragrance, and even the little fox squatting on her shoulder couldn't help jumping to the table and looking at the big white and delicious steamed buns with drooling.

Hu Yimeng picked up a steamed bun and took a bite. The skin was thin and stuffed, delicious and juicy.

The little fox next to him whined twice and motioned Hu Yimeng to give him one.

Hu Yimeng and the little fox had an agreement before going down the mountain that the little fox must not speak in front of outsiders to avoid disaster.

Hu Yimeng took a steamed bun and put it in front of the little fox. The little fox happily stretched out his paws, sat on the table with this steamed bun about the size of his body, and took a big bite. I don't know how to make my face full of soup. It made Hu Yimeng and Shopkeeper Jia laugh.

"Miss, is your pet a fox?" Manager Jia has been in charge of the sky for many years and is also a very knowledgeable person, but he was a little surprised to see a fox who was regarded as a pet and could be so clever for the first time.

"It's the fox." Hu Yimeng nodded.

"Miss, good means, the fox is the most cunning of all beasts, and it is not easy to tame it." When Shopkeeper Jia saw that Hu Yimeng's pet was really a fox, he greatly appreciated this girl with outstanding appearance and temperament, and expected that she must not be an ordinary mortal.

"Shopkeeper Jia is very good." Hu Yimeng squeezed her lips and smiled, with a comfortable expression.

"Miss, have you learned how to tame animals?" Shopkeeper Jia asked.

"I know a little."

Although Hu Yimeng has not learned any animal tamer, her current body is a nine-tailed sky fox, an ancient mythical beast. All beasts are not afraid. In front of her, even the most fierce tiger and leopard are obedient and frightened to clamp their tail. After all, this is a natural fear from the race. Therefore, Hu Yimeng's words are not a fraud to Jia.

keeper Jia's eyes suddenly lit up, "Miss, the villain has a mercy. I wonder if Miss can agree?"

"Shopkeeper, please tell me."

"Two days ago, my young master got a snow leopard, which was very rare and wanted to dedicate it to a big man in the imperial capital, but the snow leopard was violent and difficult to tame, so he was afraid to scare the big man, so my young master called me to find someone who knew the art of taming animals to tame the snow leopard. Miss Guan is a person who knows this way, so I want to ask her for help. Manager Jia bowed deeply to Hu Yimeng and made clear the reason.

"So it is." Hu Yimeng's eyes lit up. Snow leopard, this animal belongs to the world before she crossed is a national first-class protected animal! The snow leopard is named because it lives near the snow line all year round. Hu Yimeng has only seen the mysterious and elegant posture of the snow leopard in the animal world, but she doesn't know what it would be like if she could see this creature with her own eyes.

"Shopkeeper Jia, do you mean you want to ask me to tame this snow leopard?"

"That's exactly what the villain meant." Manager Jia nodded and said, "If Miss agrees, the villain is willing to reward him with a hundred taels of gold."

When Hu Yimeng heard that she was willing to tame the snow leopard with one hundred taels of gold, Hu Yimeng suddenly made a small calculation.

Although the gold and silver treasures in her space bracelet are enough for her to spend several lifetimes, there are many other things in the world, but there is no money. It's a fool to make money. Hu Yi dreamed that anyway, it was too easy for her to tame the beast just to communicate with the snow leopard and make it obedient not to cause trouble.

"Well, Manager Jia, I promised you that I've almost finished this meal. Why don't we go now?" Hu Yimeng said cheerfully. She had seen the 100 taels of golden gold wave to her.

"It's so good." Shopkeeper Jia also smiled, and his face was still full of harmony.

When Kong Long, who sat opposite Hu Yimeng and drank tea leisurely, heard that the shopkeeper Jia invited Hu Yimeng to tame the beast for his young master, and Hu Yimeng agreed without hesitation, his hand holding the teacup paused slightly, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. He looked at the shopkeeper Jia's kind smiling face and then looked at Hu Yimeng's innocent smile. He gently picked up the corners of his mouth, and a pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to smile.

It seems that something interesting will happen. Kong Long smiled. He returned to the posture of a noble man who was leisurely drinking tea.

At this time, the little fox couldn't wait to jump into the cage after eating the first steamed bun, buried himself in the steamed bun and ate all over juice.

Hu Yimeng looked at the little fox with a depressed face and his stomach was round and full of soup. She picked up the little fox's only relatively clean tail, carried him to herself, pointed her slender fingers at the little fox's nose, and said, "Little fox! You greedy, look how dirty you are now! Next time you are so sloppy, I won't want you!"

The little fox was held down by Hu Yimeng. Because he was too full, his stomach was big and round like a black ball. He could only grumble. He could only shrug his ears and listen to Hu Yimeng's resp.

The headkeeper Jia thoughtfully sent a cloth towel. Hu Yimeng thanked him, took the cloth towel, wiped the soup on the little fox's body, and then went downstairs with the little fox who couldn't stand it and the shopkeeper Jia downstairs.

At this time, a gorgeous carriage with two black horses was already waiting at the door of the sky.

Hu Yimeng and Shopkeeper Jia walked to the door together. Under the guidance of Shopkeeper Jia, the two got into the carriage.

As soon as Hu Yimeng and the shopkeeper Jia left, Kong Long put down the teacup in his hand, threw an ingot of silver to Xiao Er, stood up and left the sky calmly.

The carriage ran smoothly on the wide streets of Tianji City. Horseshoes and wheels pressed against the bluestone slabs on the ground and made a crisp sound. Before long, the carriage stopped.

Shopkeeper Jia got out of the car, pulled the curtain for Hu Yimeng in person and said, "Miss, here we are."

Hu Yimeng came out of the carriage with the little fox in her arms.

After getting out of the carriage, Hu Yimeng looked at the house in front of him. The road in front of the house is open, the courtyard wall is high, and there are some pine and cypress trees planted on both sides of the gate. There is a pair of powerful stone lions at the door, and there is a plaque with the words "Shenfu" hanging on the door. This font is powerful and domineering. I don't know which famous person it came from.
