A new journey of accumulating wealth

Chapter 382 Journey to the Homeland 3 in 1

Wu Shulai stood in the corner and didn't dare to lift it up. Lord Long Live has not been in a good mood recently.

So is the Queen!She was fine at first, but finally the emperor got over that effort and was willing to get along well with her, so why did he want to have a child?He knew that the Queen's place would receive the medicinal materials for the son on time every month.Because there were not many Huang Amas in the palace, the emperor didn't say which harem woman was fortunate, so he gave him a bowl of Bizi Tang.He will definitely release people in the queen's palace, and the queen is not shy about hanging the medicine bag, and drinking soup and medicine on time on the first and fifteenth day of every month.This is the queen's own statement before she became a queen.She has been like this ever since.Even at the beginning of this month, the Queen's Palace received it on time.

It's no wonder the emperor was angry.

If it happened, it would be an accident.Whether the child will be born as a boy or a girl is still a matter of course, the emperor can't afford to get angry over this.

The emperor was angry that the queen lied to him.Knowing that she was pregnant, she still kept taking that medicine.Who is she coaxing?What about the rest of the paralyzed harem?Or even the emperor is guarding against it.

She is trying to make it a reality.

Wu Shulai stood like this, not daring to speak.When he raised his eyes, he looked at him as if the imperial doctor was asking for help.He watched his eyes, nose, nose and heart, and did not give any response.

The imperial doctor over there scolded Wu Shulai in his heart. He didn't know, but he knew that after today's incident, the palace would not be a good mess.He just thought about whether he should take the medical department of the academy, where he can avoid the limelight.I heard that there is only one student there now, and I'm afraid they will recruit more next year.

Because there is this retreat, I am not afraid.Therefore, he really dared to think wildly here.

Until I heard that majestic and undisputed voice: "Really? The queen is pregnant? At the queen's age... is pregnancy a hindrance?"

Although it is an advanced maternal age, the queen is in good health.Besides, that old lady lives in the garden, if it is not possible, she can be sent there to raise a baby, and it will definitely ensure the smooth birth of the first line.

But of course he didn't dare to say that, he just followed the emperor's words: "Yes! This is exactly what I am worried about. Although the fetus is safe, but it happens that the morning sickness suddenly becomes so severe, and I have to take care of it after that..."

Keep it carefully? "So you can't be tired?"

Imperial Physician: "..." I didn't say that, but I didn't dare to say that I could make the queen tired.Of course you can do whatever you want.So he said: "Elder pregnant women have to be careful, no matter how careful they are, you can't be too careful." Don't ask me to offend the queen.

Qianlong read Wu Shulai, "The queen has made a contribution to conceiving a dragon heir, reward!"

Wu Shulai responded with a 'yes', and was about to retreat, when the emperor said again: "The empress doesn't care about the palace affairs for the time being, leave it to... Lingfei. The most important thing is to take care of your body, the dragon heir."

Wu Shulai responded again, and when he went out, he winked at the imperial physician and took the unlucky guy out.

The imperial physician bowed his hands to thank him as soon as he left the house, and Wu Shulai gave a half-hearted smile.

This imperial doctor knew what the other party was laughing at, didn't he walk closer to the Queen's Palace?Which concubine in the harem is sick or something, he also informs the kind.And...the empress is pregnant but hides it from the emperor, is there any fault of her own?

have it!I gave the queen the pulse two months ago, but the pulse did not show at that time.He didn't pay much attention to it, and just said that he would look at it in a few days.Every month, I would ask my master for a pulse for peace, but a few times later, the queen said that she was in good health, and asked more about the concubines in the harem, but she never gave him a pulse.Now that something like this happened, no one seemed to believe me if I said I didn't know.

I opened my mouth several times to explain, but what should I explain?The emperor has said that this is a happy event.That can only be a happy event.

It's going to be windy in the palace.

Wu Shulai laughed: "From now on, the Empress and the First Prince will be freed from you."

The imperial doctor was sweating, and said "definitely" on his mouth, but his body fell down without any symptoms, and with a "plop", he fell firmly on the ground and rolled down the steps.Although there are only three steps, the steps made of stone are hard.He fell down straight, his head was bumped layer by layer, there was a knocking sound, and after rolling down, he was still straight, didn't move, and didn't cry out in pain.

Several young eunuchs ran over, wondering if they should step forward to check.

But Wu Shulai cursed cunningly, gestured quietly, and asked a few young eunuchs to carry him out.It's really a skill to fall hard on the flat ground!I'm afraid that this fall will not get better before the queen gives birth.

He sneered and passed the decree.

Looking at the rewards being carried in like water, the queen maintained a smile on her face, but her heart was like a fire burning.She had already figured out the wording in her stomach, and she asked herself that based on her understanding of the emperor, this article would always be turned over.But today it happened so suddenly that no one was prepared.

All the people left, and Nanny Rong knelt down, "Your Majesty, it's the servant's fault."

The queen waved her hand, "No! It's not your fault." Even without you, someone would call the imperial physician.This is already planned.

Rong Rong frowned: "Empress, no matter how much I think, I still can't figure out how this news got out?"

The queen closed her eyes, "Go to Zhuangzi, I was spotted by that one."

"Your Majesty, do you mean that the empress dowager plotted?" But this doesn't make sense, it has nothing to do with the empress dowager.

The queen smiled, "Didn't you say that He Jing went after him?"

Mother Rong's complexion changed, "You mean... Princess Hejing?" Princess Hejing doesn't have any siblings of her own, so which prince will be the crown prince in the future, isn't it all the same to her?

That may not be the same.

He Jing has never been alone, the Fucha family is a big family, and their interests have always been tied together.

I am a queen, and if I don't have an original wife, if the prince is the one in my stomach, then the meaning is different.The Fucha family and He Jing would like to find a mother who doesn't appear to be from the mother clan, nor would they be willing to take the lead by themselves.Although his own Ama is not good, but Ulanara's family is a noble surname, and there are too many people in the clan.Just like the empress dowager in the palace, her background is not high, but now when it comes to Niu Gulu's family, no one would say it is the empress dowager's natal family.If you really stand in that position, not to mention the clansmen within three or five generations running up, even within eight generations, as long as you wave your hand, there will be people who are willing to work hard for you.

Therefore, they are willing to stand out from others with a small surname, and they are not willing to stand out by themselves.

This is what I thought before I was pregnant.

Nanny Rong's lips trembled in anger: "If the Queen Mother and the Empress Dowager don't tell me about such things, how will Princess He Jing know about it?" Her tears came down all at once, "Your Majesty, how can this be done?" Over there If it was calculated, both the empress and the little prince would die.

The queen slowly closed her eyes: "No! It was me who was wrong. I thought the winning ticket was in my hands! I thought that the empress's wife was really a Bodhisattva, as long as she asked for it, she would give it to her. It turned out that I was wrong... ...How can that empress be a talkative character. She can lend her hand only if she gives it. If she doesn't give it, she can't ask for it. I'm out of my head and have committed a taboo."

Nanny Rong understood a little bit, but a little bit didn't understand: "Even the old sage let the emperor manage the affairs of the academy..."

"Wrong! The emperor allowed the old sage to manage the academy. But the women's academy is just the opposite. Think about it, if the queen mother in the palace is in charge of the women's academy, can I extend my hand?"

No!

yes! "I'm just bullying the queen mother who is the queen mother and not the queen mother... I bully the queen mother who is not the mother of the Lord Long Live, thinking that she will have no other choice but to give in. Now that I have been bullied to the head, shouldn't she be allowed to fight back? Besides, did he do anything? He just told He Jing. As for He Jing's choice, he has no control over it."

Mother Rong was speechless: "What should we do now? The Empress Dowager hasn't sent anyone so far, so it can be seen that she is annoyed. The Emperor has taken over the palace power, and the Empress Dowager outside has also been offended. Few people in the palace have good intentions." "My lady, what should I do?"

The queen waved her hands, and after a long silence, she said, "Where's Mrs. Tong?"

what?

"Mr. Tong." The queen looked at Nanny Rong, "Compared with Concubine Ling, who is stronger and who is weaker?"

"Concubine Ling was born in the House of Internal Affairs..."

"How dare the House of Internal Affairs do anything to Tong?" the queen asked.

I really dare not do anything.Although Tong's son passed away through adoption, that child was raised by the old sage.They dare not do anything to Tong.Although Mrs. Tong is only a nobleman, she doesn't associate with anyone in the palace, so she seems to be very responsible.But the supply provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not as good as that of concubines, but comparable to that of concubines.

After thinking about it, Rong Momo understood everything, "The servant will call her now..." After finishing speaking, she hesitated, "Mother, will she still be obedient now?"

"It doesn't matter whether you listen or not." The queen smiled, "It's fine to restrain Concubine Ling and don't make her grow up. By the way, let's see Tong's disposition. If it is available, you can use it with confidence in the future. If it is not available... in the future Just keep it at arm's length. Go! I know it."

So Mrs. Tong stood in front of the queen, a little far away. She didn't say congratulations when they met, but said: "Your Majesty, why didn't you inform the emperor in advance. Anything happens, even Bizi can't avoid it 100% Yes. If there is such a situation, this is God's will. The emperor will love the little elder brother a little more. What the empress did not conceive a child, but concealed the mistake. The emperor is the husband of the empress and a concubine I don’t understand the truth, but I know that trust is the key between husband and wife. How can the empress not trust her husband as a wife?”

"You know a lot." The queen said lightly.If there hadn't been 20 years of indifference, how could she have concealed it.It is precisely because we know too well that we dare not trust.These are not worth talking to her about.

Mrs. Tong didn't seem to hear the indifference in the words, so she just lowered her head, "I used to live in Zhuangzi, standing in the yard over there, I can see the old saint and the old lady eating loose food on the path every day. After a concubine, husband and wife should be like that, that's why I said this."

These words are like a sharp sword piercing into the heart.The queen's face was in a daze for a moment, and she immediately withdrew her thoughts, "You will come here less in the future, and I won't be able to take care of you in the future. You should be more considerate, understand?"

Tong's heart was beating very fast, and then she answered yes in a low voice.When I went out, I came back again, "Is there any soup for you, my lady?"

The queen's complexion changed, she looked at Tong Shi, her eyes narrowed, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

Tong knelt down and kowtowed, "The concubine hurt her body when she gave birth to Duanbeile in the early years, and it is the life-threatening talisman if she is pregnant. Therefore, I ask the queen to give you the best son soup."

The queen gave Tong Shi a serious look, and then smiled: "Okay! Get up. If you are not feeling well, call the imperial doctor to see you. If you are sick, just take care of yourself."

This is the perfect soup for her.

Tong kowtowed again, and then withdrew.

Mother Rong felt cold all over: "Your Majesty, you have to be on guard against this person."

The queen smiled, "She is a smart person. She knows that she has to fight against the concubine Ling, and no one can do it. No matter how bad the palace is, she is still the queen. How can there be fewer people in her hand? She is surrendering. It is not unbelievable, What everyone wants is different. She has a son, but her background is limited, and she will never be a queen. Therefore, being a concubine is the only way he can choose. She lacks wealth and freedom to see her son. What she wants is the same as ours. No conflict, no hindrance!"

This is also the reason why Rong Momo thinks about it. The child has been raised for so long and suddenly separated. No one has mentioned this from the beginning to the end. If she does not rely on herself, who else can she rely on.No matter how others tell her that her son is fine, but if she doesn't see it with her own eyes, no one can tell.This is the heart of a mother.Thinking of this, she was a little more tolerant towards Tong, "I know what to do now."

The queen then said: "Check the palace once, don't underestimate the concubine Ling. She would rather have fewer people than talk about ostentation. This woman knows how to win over the emperor's heart because of her relationship with the former queen." The foot-washing maid's background is considered vulgar by others, but the concubine is not ashamed but proud, playing the old queen's card.People with this kind of heart are terrifying.

Concubine Ling, who was being naughty by the empress, dismissed the Hexi people with a smile, and only then listened to the report from the palace servants.

After listening to it once, she frowned: "I summoned Mrs. Tong..." She frowned slightly, and then laughed, "After all, she is the queen, but she will choose someone. This person... We really can't help it. That's all! As long as it doesn't go too far, let her Let's go." Anyway, it has nothing to do with major matters.

The palace man answered in a low voice, waiting for the order again and again.

Concubine Ling scratched at her long nails, and said after a while: "Send the message, and take care of the fifth elder brother. But whatever the fifth elder brother asks for, there is no answer. This matter must be known to the queen mother."

The palace people were puzzled: "The other elder brothers are all studying outside the palace, do you want to send some food on time?"

Concubine Ling shook her head: "Be kind to all the princes and daughters, that's what a queen should do. Be kind to fifth elder brother, that's what I should do most now." Anyway, I can't be a queen, so why should I be virtuous? people watch.The queen mother is holding the fifth elder brother... She now feels that it is in her best interest to hold the fifth elder brother.Then hold it, so... the Queen Mother should be satisfied.In the harem, it doesn't matter if others are satisfied or not, as long as the Queen Mother is satisfied.

The palace man said, "Princess Hejing..."

"Don't get close!" Concubine Ling said with a complicated expression, "Be more respectful, just treat her like a little master."

cooperate?Princess Hejing looks down on her now, and she...doesn't really want to get close to Xiuying.

Dehai turned around and reported the affairs in the palace, Lin Yutong frowned, and put a question mark behind He Jing's name.He Jing is very powerful, but he is so powerful in the one-third of an acre of land in the palace.She is actually being kidnapped by the Fucha family now!The priorities are reversed.Through her hands, the Fucha family can float outside, as if there is no Fucha family in any mess, so the Fucha family becomes more and more like spring snow.Even with her son-in-law, she also considers her son-in-law's interests more.Otherwise, as Princess Gu Lun, it is enough for her to be well favored.No matter what, Fucha is still a courtier, but what if Fucha's status as an important minister can bring more benefits to the forehead?Interest is such a bundle.In fact, she paid a lot, but what did she get?Nothing more to gain.She did nothing, her Ama would give her as much as she did a lot, her Ama gave her.

So is this smart really smart?

He Wan was still kneeling at the door, Lin Yutong asked her to come in, she came in from the outside, knelt on the ground again, with her head lowered, "Granddaughter knew it was wrong. Grandmother, granddaughter really knew it was wrong."

Lin Yutong looked at her: "What's wrong?"

"You shouldn't act impulsively." He Wan lowered her head, she really didn't expect He Jing to act like that.What she originally thought was that the queen wanted power, so she couldn't control anything when she was pregnant.Just let He Jing use such an excuse to squeeze the queen down.The identity of He Jing is easy to handle, but the meaning of the mother of the country is different.But it never occurred to him that He Jing would do things this way, and it would not be a simple matter to involve the rights and wrongs of the heirs of the harem.

"If you can't grasp the result, you must always keep three points. This principle must be remembered. This three points are not for others, but also for yourself." Lin Yutong called her up, "This incident is a lesson. "

yes!He Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "If the emperor finds out that He Jing is plotting against him..."

"No one dares to pierce this layer of paper, because we all know that it is useless to pierce. Will the emperor despise and respect him? Or will he benefit the person who exposed it?" Lin Yutong sighed, "Do you think the emperor is serious? I don’t know anything? But, to others, the emperor is just the emperor. To Yu Hejing, that person is her Ama. In front of the child’s Ama, there is always the right to make mistakes and the right to be willful. And in In the eyes of a father, there is nothing wrong with the child, and all the careful calculations are because he did not give the child better."

Therefore, the emperor is the father only with He Jing, and the emperor with others.

She laughed when she thought about it, yes!Only He Jing really regards the emperor as her Ama, so as long as her Ama is the emperor, she will always be a princess who can make small calculations.

Lin Yutong raised his hand and touched her head, "So, a bird that grows under the shelter of its wings will never learn to fight in the sky."

kindness!Because she doesn't have to.

He Wan understood a little, "So, He Jing has to intervene in the affairs of the academy. Because her focus should be different from ours." In this way, the emperor can rest assured that she can follow the emperor's grandmother's wishes and do it with fist and kick.So, she smiled brightly, "The granddaughter understands."

"If you understand, go to your sixth uncle, and then go and see if there is anything you want to buy." Lin Yutong sent her off, and the child really jumped out like a cheerful bird.

He Wan is easy to teach|teach, but Liugege and Shisangege of the two palaces over there are not so easy to teach.

The two never had a name, and Lin Yutong decided to give them a name.The big one, Thirteen Gege from Jiu Ye’s family, is named Buerhe, and the younger Liu Gege from Zhiwang’s Mansion is named Galuo.One means crane and the other means swan.They are all auspicious birds.These two people are slowly helping Lin Yutong with a chore.Most of them belong to the clan, such as the birthday and death of a prince, etc., someone needs to help them in a hurry, and then send some sacrifices and the like.There are also teachers from the Academy, whoever has something to do, someone has to deal with it here.

The two of them have a special yard beside them, and they usually deal with these things.

The two are very cautious, and rarely make up their own minds. When things are almost handled one day, they always come to talk about it.Then I asked Lin Yutong for instructions on what to do the next day, and did it according to Lin Yutong's wishes.

This point can't be changed in a short time. Lin Yutong was preparing textbooks for the medical department, but the two came again.This time, I reported to Lin Yutong about one thing. Sangege from 21 Family came back from Mongolia, and now I handed over a sign to see you.

Lin Yutong asked, "Is it 21 Fujin, or?"

"It's San Gege." Bullhe whispered, "The people below are here to report, and she is waiting at the intersection." She glanced outside as she spoke, "It's not a good day today, it's a bit cold."

Is it because you are afraid that the other party will be cold?

Lin Yutong: "...then call. Call in!"

The two of them went out to do some errands, and as soon as they left, He Wan came in and said with a smile: "My aunt is interesting, she came here on horseback."

kindness?

He said softly, "I asked the person who reported it just now, and they came on horseback. Two people ran here on horseback without anyone."

Two people?He also brought Zhai Sandorji, the grandson of the Thirteen Family?

Hey!When those two came to report, Wanquan missed the point.

Lin Yutong got up and said, "Go and meet you." As he said that, he called the waiter outside, and asked him to notify fourth master, and if he was done with work there, he would hurry back.

Fourth master should pay attention to this Zhai Sanduoerji.This kid is young and capable.Doing business with the Russians behind the back of the court.Of course it's not to pursue him now, but it's a pity that such a young man with a bright mind doesn't need to get up.What's more, this kid has already opened up the way, and many things can be done with half the effort.

He Wan went out and greeted the gate of the academy.You can't come in here on horseback. A man and a woman walked side by side on the opposite side, and the waiters didn't follow in.The girl in front had a smiling face, wearing a Mongolian robe, small leather boots on her feet, and a whip in her hand.Along the way, he refused to stop, hitting the flowers and trees on the side of the road with the whip from time to time, and from time to time he would jump on the curb and walk on tiptoe.The tall young man behind him just watched helplessly, reminding him from time to time: "Slow down, I've sprained my ankle!"

"You want to take care of it?" The girl jumped up and picked a leaf, and she was very happy, "Look! Look! Where there are trees, it's good. I think it's time to plant trees for the grassland. tall and big..."

While talking, I saw He Wan looking at her with a smile on her face.

She immediately stood up and turned to look at the young man, "How do you look at me? Are you not timid?"

The young man coughed, then squeezed his eyes, "Excellent! The most beautiful aunt."

The girl smiled triumphantly, raised her arms, the young man lowered his head, the girl patted the young man on the head, and said with satisfaction: "Good boy!" After she finished speaking, she remembered to ask, "Who is the one who picked us up? "

The young man smiled and said in a low voice: "You are not old, why are you so forgetful. That is Princess Hewan..."

The girl yelled, "Niece!"

He Wan: "..." That's great!It was indeed a first-year niece, she stepped forward and called, "Auntie."

Zhai Sang was so depressed that he hurried forward to pay respects, and then winked at the girl.Only then did she realize, "I've seen the princess!"

She is a princess, but she is only the head of the county.

He Wan stretched out her hand to help her up, "They are all from my own family, and we only talk about family etiquette at home."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, "It's been a long time since I left the capital, and I forgot a lot of things."

I can't think of my family, which means that I have a good life in Mongolia.

When he appeared in front of the teacher Lin Yutong, Lin Yutong was astonished. Since he came back, he has seen many children in the royal family, but he has never seen anyone as energetic as this child.The skin is not white, but wheat-colored, compared with the ladies in the capital, it is a bit dark.His facial features are correct, but his eyes are particularly bright and energetic.She is not tall, but not thin, and looks strong and strong. She helped her up, and the calluses on her hands were not worn out by writing or needlework, but the traces that can only be worn out by a whip and a rein .

"Zhu Xin?" Lin Yutong asked for the child's boudoir name on purpose.He, Ama, is good at poetry, and her name also has the elegance of a gentleman.

Zhu Xin smiled, "Yes! Fourth Auntie, I am Zhu Xin." Then she eagerly pointed at Zhai Sang, "This is Zhai Sang, it's amazing."

When Zhai Sang came to pay respects, Lin Yutong felt relieved, "You are very similar to your grandfather."

"Yes!" Zhu Xin said, "People asked me, how did you develop such a temper. I told them that I was raised by my nephew, and I got used to it, so I became like this gone."

Zhai Sang's face was full of helplessness, as if there was really nothing he could do about her.

Fourth master didn't come back, but asked Qian Sheng to pick up Zhai Sang and go to the academy.

As soon as Zhai Sang left, Lin Yutong asked Zhu Xin, "Your mother-in-law came to see me before and asked for a will to bring you back. Do you know why?"

Zhu Xin nodded, and withdrew her smile slightly, "I grew up with Zhai Sang...depending on each other." As he spoke, his eye circles turned red, "In fact, there are many things in the tribe. I'm just the county lord, help him There are very limited places for him. He has achieved it bit by bit by himself..." She wanted to say that the tribe is rich now, but after thinking about it, she still couldn't say this, so she swallowed it again, "Anyway , he is the closest person to me besides Ama'erniang." Then he quickly added, "But we are definitely not husband and wife. He is like Ama and brother, but he is not like a husband... the concubine beside him The two of us picked it out together, and we both gave birth to a daughter for him. We didn't expect that there would be a turning point, but we had already agreed that if I met someone I liked on the grassland, he would write to the court Said that I was sick and died, and then married me off." Then, she looked at Lin Yutong pleadingly, "I can't bear to leave him, he is very good to me, I have never been worse than the capital. But if there is Opportunity, I still want to go to everyone. His concubine is very good..."

She spoke in a hurry, even a little incoherent, as if she didn't know how to explain such a different emotion, as if no one else could understand.With a bit of annoyance, she burst into tears, "If I go back to the capital, I probably won't go to the grassland again, and I don't know how many times I will see you again in this life. I thought I would be crazy to leave the grassland and go home. But when I was about to leave, I realized that it was the same as when I left the capital and hated my Ama and Erniang..."

Her crying was the kind of howling with a grin, not the sobbing kind.Zhai Sang, who was still crying and talking to Fourth Master outside the courtyard, changed his expression. Can this place howl like that?

Fourth Master looked at Zhai Sang a few times, "Are you sure you want to dissolve this marriage?"

Zhai Sang nodded sincerely, "I don't have any close brothers and sisters. Since my parents passed away and got married right after, the closest one is my aunt." When he said that, there was a warm smile on the corner of his mouth.Sending him to the clan was the most embarrassing time for him to be embarrassed by the clansmen. She used the style of the county lord to scare people, raised her chin and asked people, do you know who this is?This is the grandson of Prince Yi.Don't think you can bully Zhaisang without my thirteenth uncle, I am his aunt, if you bully her, I will go back to Beijing and file a complaint immediately.

Although it is useless, there is always a person who claims to be an elder who always wants to protect her.

Later, he protected her all the way to grow up.

The feelings are very complicated, and I am very reluctant, "But she has to have her own life." She cannot be buried with me for the rest of her life.

Fourth Master skipped the topic, said he knew, and then asked about business, "Don't panic, I've always known about this."

Zhai Sang was so frightened that he sweated, "Slave... the slave is guilty."

"Forgive you not guilty." Fourth Master patted him, "Go, go in and talk to me in detail."

As soon as Fourth Master came back, Zhu Xin stopped crying, and after hiccupping, hurriedly greeted her.Seeing Zhai Sang looking at her, she turned her head guiltily, remembering that what she did seemed to be wrong.

"Let's all sit down." Fourth Master pointed to the chair next to him. Putting aside the children's affairs, he motioned Zhai Sang to continue what he said before,

Zhai Sang quickly said, "Now the main trading point is still in Qiaktu. The other party likes gold, silver, tea, silk, porcelain, and rhubarb. But now most of the tea comes from Huguang, and the tea road is not easy to go. The price It’s expensive. This business slave can’t afford it. Therefore, the tribe mostly trades wool with Lao Maozi. The goods that Lao Maozi gives us are mostly velvet, sea otter skin, mink fur, cow and sheep leather, fur coats, and All kinds of woolen products and things made of leather...Of course, slaves can’t afford that kind of goods. We mainly give the wool to others and exchange it for woolen fabrics. Then we take the woolen fabrics to other tribes to collect wool, and then exchange them later. Although there is some profit, it is only a small amount. The slave is making a small fuss..." The main thing is to avoid the court, "There are many merchants on the Qiaktu side. Speaking of serious business, the old Maozi can say It's a trade city, our side is not just a "trading place" at most. Their trade city was built by their imperial court, and our "trading place" was built by those big merchants. It's over if there are so many places to trade As he spoke, he lowered his eyes, "To put it bluntly, Lao Maozi collects taxes from the trade, and the taxes go to the treasury. Our side...only the merchants make a lot of money."

Therefore, he pointed out two main points: First, foreign trade is a matter for merchants and the court, and the court cannot ignore it.Second, it should have its own strict tariffs to enrich the treasury.

The fourth master asked, "According to your observation, do grains, ironware, gold, and silver go out much?"

"A lot! More and more every year." Zhai Sang seemed to understand something, "They think that silk is an expensive luxury. Especially the silk from Jiangnan is even more expensive. But ironware, in fact, the profit may not be high."

The fourth master was silent for a long time, Lin Yutong asked, "This time you came to Beijing, did you bring the woolen products produced by Lao Maozi."

I really brought it.

Zhu Xin hurriedly said: "I have it on my horse, I'll go get it right away."

Lin Yutong said: "Let someone bring the horse in."

Zhu Xin ran out after him, bringing a big cloak with him, "Look, this color is also very bright."

Lin Yutong took a look at it and showed it to fourth master.Fourth Master took a closer look and asked Zhai Sang, "In your transaction with the other party, what do you think the other party needs more."

"Old man is good at wine, the more spirits the more he likes them." But spirits need food, so this will definitely not work. "If the tea road is smoother, whether it is from Yunnan or Fujian, the profit will be higher. .And... the old man likes silk very much, but we seem to be unable to keep up with the quantity. This thing is also sought after by nobles, and the better it is, the more expensive it can be sold..."

But such things are generally made in-house, except for the use of the royal family, they are also rewarded for others to use.There are very few circulating in the market, let alone selling them for money.

Fourth Master knew it in his heart, so he kept Zhai Sang here for dinner at night, and invited a few people over at the same time.

Chang Wanda, who was a businessman, was the most surprised among those invited, "The old sage asked me to come over for dinner?"

How can it be?

He Wan also asked, "What's so special about Chang Wanda?"

Fourth Master hadn't spoken yet, but Zhai Sang seemed to know, "My surname is Chang? Are you from Shanxi?"

Exactly!

Zhai Sang understood, "The Chang family is one of the big merchants doing business in Kyakhta."

Then Chang Wanda is the young owner.

For the first time, He Wan suspected that her grandfather did not just look at the test papers when recruiting candidates!
