Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Chapter 315



Eating a vegetarian diet during the Chinese New Year made Wang Xiujin feel a black thread. If he eats vegetarian food for three days, he will be able to let God bless the weather with good weather?Is this the ignorant practice of the ancients who did not understand technology?Not necessarily, there is a saying that "sincerity leads to spirit", perhaps the sincerity of the emperor will move the world, so that this year there will be fewer disasters and less hardships for the people.As for people like him who are not particularly sincere, I just hope that God will ignore them directly.

After eating vegetarian food for three days, Wang Xiujin couldn't help sighing when he saw the smell of meat, and then thought, why does the monk eat vegetarian food every day? He only endured it for three days, and he almost broke the meat. Ten days and a half a month, otherwise, he would have to steal it.Ordinarily he shouldn't be like this, he eats delicious food all the year round, and the emperor will enjoy some delicacies from time to time, so that if he doesn't eat meat for three days, he will feel like he's missing something, even tasteless in his mouth, so greedy!I can't even see it myself.

After the beginning of the new year, the emperor first worshiped the ancestors, and hoped that the ancestors would bless the Liangjiang Mountains for generations to come.Then I went to pray for blessings, hoping that God would bless this year with good weather and the soldiers who went out to return triumphantly.Worshiping the ancestors was nothing like Wang Xiujin, but Li Sushan was appointed to be responsible for the safety of the guard of honor, which also showed that the emperor attached great importance to the Li family.Afterwards, the emperor asked Wang Xiujin to participate in the prayer, and said with a smile that Wang Xiujin was the reincarnation of the God of Wealth.A high hat put Wang Xiujin in a state of trepidation. He repeatedly said that there are too many capable people making money. He just had a better chance, and he almost said that he had a super strong leg.

He repeatedly expressed his loyalty to the emperor, which made the emperor laugh out loud. Wang Xiujin wiped the sweat from his brow in his heart, secretly guessing what the emperor meant, and wanted to get some more money from him when he ran out of money?Or have suspicions about him?But neither of them should be. If he was suspicious, he would not be invited to participate in any blessing. Although he is a high-ranking imperial merchant, he is not qualified to participate in such a blessing ceremony.If it is said that there is no money, it is unlikely. He does not know how much money the treasury has, but it will definitely not be short of money.Unable to guess what the emperor meant, Wang Xiujin felt a little uneasy.

After the ceremony, Wang Xiujin left with his father, instead of going back to Li's house, he went to Wang's house. He wanted to ask his father for advice. He felt like flattering the emperor because he was so popular that he offended the emperor. Happy?Or did the emperor have other calculations?

Lord Wang looked at the younger son who was asking for advice with an open face, and was very speechless. When he should be worried, the younger son boldly said something that should not be said, and when he should not be worried, he was thinking wildly. Although the national treasury is abundant, no one would think that it is short of money. It is not that there are no shops under the emperor's name, and they are also making money, but is the speed of money coming in as fast as that of the youngest son?The bonuses to the royal family are also removed every year, and some money is donated to the treasury every few years. It is better to say that the son makes money, rather than being a treasurer for the royal family. As long as the emperor is not faint, he will not do anything to his son.

Mr. Wang only replied that he was thinking too much, and sent his youngest son away. He felt that his youngest son was afraid that he was too free recently, so he thought so much. He should find something to do, otherwise he would have to think about messy things .

How did Wang Xiujin know that his father was making up his mind, and he talked to Li Sushan after returning home. Li Sushan also felt that Wang Xiujin was thinking too much. With a worried face, Wang Xiujin felt that he should say a few words of comfort. Listening to what Li Sushan and his father said were similar, Wang Xiujin felt relieved, but he was still worried, but he let it go quickly. Even if the emperor was thinking about something, he had to But after drawing Dao Dao, it is useless for him to think more now.

Straightening his mind, Wang Xiujin threw himself into the business world of the new year.Not long after praying for blessings, the army fighting outside sent back good news that the army had reached the border of the invading enemy.After listening to Longyan Dayue, the emperor was busy among the courtiers, and pulled out two ministers who had participated in the last land allocation negotiation. There was only one request, that is, to ask for money and land.

The emperor of Daliang was fooled by Wang Xiujin, and he didn't pay attention to the demeanor of a great country. It is correct to put money and land in his pocket. I feel that there is too little land, otherwise I would not have sent troops to continue fighting after the previous anger. I took out a map and marked the area for the officials who are about to leave. From here to here, I must take it. It would be better if there were more , War indemnity, in addition to the normal compensation, there is also an indemnity for the death of soldiers, so that the generals can liquidate the battle damage, fifty gold for ordinary soldiers, doubled for each level up.Civil servants who were going to the front line glanced at each other, the empire is not short of money!

Both of them could see what the other was thinking, but they didn't dare to speak out against it. They could only sigh in their hearts. The emperor was poisoned by the emperor's business, and the smell of copper was all there. Shouldn't they speak to the old man, except for the emperor's business?It's just that with the current emphasis on the emperor's merchants, can they do it?Both of them smiled wryly in their hearts, fearing that it was impossible.Or send someone to do something secretly?Poison the emperor, or directly send people to kill?

Wang Xiujin didn't know that someone was planning to kill him, and he was taking the shopkeeper Wang to inspect the workshops and shops in the capital. The chain snacks he made before were handed over to Sister Liu to take care of them. When they passed by, the two went in to have a look Look, I packed some food by the way, and there have been more snacks in the past few years. Small chain stores can thrive as long as they keep the food hygienic.

In order to ensure food hygiene, the yamen in the capital also specially assigned some people to be responsible for supervision, but the conditions were limited and they could only see some superficial things. Even so, it could also play a sufficient deterrent effect.

Wang Xiujin listened to the people in the shop talking about the situation, and told shopkeeper Wang that the officials were very responsible for the people.Shopkeeper Wang responded with a smile. Anyway, the officials did not dare to make things difficult for their family. If the officials brought the servants over every three days, the owner would never say such a thing.

The two ministers in the palace left the palace after receiving the secret decree given by the emperor, and then went to Ge's home without stopping, expressing their thoughts in a tone of worry about the emperor's special concern for Daliang, Ge Lao Looking at the two ministers, they stroked their beards, but did not speak.Send the two ministers away directly. They don't know that after they left the palace, they were followed by people. They entered the old man's yard and the beams on the roof did not fall down. Everything they said and did entered the emperor's control. Ear.

The emperor looked at the person reporting and asked what Ge Lao meant, the man only said that Ge Lao had invited the two ministers out.The emperor pondered for a while before speaking, "Send someone to watch Mr. Ge." Since the emperor changed his mind, he felt that those who used to drive away the intruders had to pay the other party to let the intruders If the enemy wants to come back again, the opponent will feel that even if he loses, he will get money anyway. Why not send troops, because it can feed the tribe and strengthen the army. Only a fool will take the money and never come again.

The emperor hated the thoughts of the civil servants very much, especially when the other party wanted to find someone to assassinate or even assassinate Wang Xiujin. The emperor almost had the two civil servants taken captive and thrown into the river.Thinking about where they went, I don't want to give these two face, but Mr. Ge, I still have to take it into consideration.Let the two officials die silently, or there are many normal ways to die, but you can't let the two people leave the old man's yard at the front foot, and something will happen on the back foot.However, "You send some people to pay attention to the old man. People, when you are old, you should obey the will of God."

The people who came to report immediately understood the meaning of the emperor and took the order to go.

Wang Xiujin brought a lot of food home at night and added another dish. Yachang liked to eat chicken racks and chicken wings very much. The only daughter of the Li family who was not married laughed and said that eating chicken legs was the most affordable and meaty.Yachang hastily denied it, "Auntie's words are wrong. Don't look at the lack of meat in the chicken wings, but they are tasty enough. There are a lot of chicken thighs, but the more you go in, the less flavorful they are. But the chicken wings are different. There are all meat in them. Once the taste is in, no matter which side you start to eat from, the taste inside and outside is the same.”

Li Linfu raised his hand to pick up a chicken wing and tasted it. It seemed that it was exactly as his nephew said, but he ate up the meat in a few mouthfuls, which was not very satisfying.Li Linfu continued to eat chicken legs, but for some reason, he felt that the taste of chicken legs was much worse.Yachang thoughtfully took a piece of chicken wing for her aunt.

Looking at the interaction between the aunt and nephew, Wang Xiujin was very relieved. Thinking of the age of the sister-in-law, she was about to get married. Thinking of this, Wang Xiujin looked at the second uncle's family, "Second uncle, the younger brothers have also reached the age of marriage , is there an engagement?"

"Haha, the boss is already engaged. It's just that the other party has to wait a year for the elders to be filial piety. There is nothing else. The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law have to help take care of it. There is no need for a lady, even if you are too petty." If Wang Xiujin didn't ask, he would have mentioned it. The Li family has a great reputation in the capital, but in terms of face, the whole family is not as good as Wang Xiujin. From now on, it will still be the head of the Li family, and it will definitely not be difficult for Wang Xiujin to find a good marriage for the children.

Wang Xiujin asked the question casually, but he never thought that such a big matter would be burdened on his shoulders.

"Second uncle, let us who have nothing to do in the inner house handle this matter! Xiu Jin is so busy every day, how can he take care of these things, but he can inquire about it." Shopkeeper Mi immediately took over the second About uncle, "I'll discuss it with you later in the room."

"Success." Li Laoer is not embarrassing, he naturally knows how busy Wang Xiujin is, "You have to pay attention to safety, some people are not safe recently!" Although Li Laoer has not been in the capital for many years, Hu Peng is a good friend. But it didn't stop, so I got some news, so I told Li Laoer, and Li Laoer naturally wanted to tell Wang Xiujin.
