Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Shopkeeper Wang has been waiting in the yard, and when he heard Mr. Wang's words, he wrote it down and hurriedly asked the assistant to find the doctor to come over and show the owner whether his hand was injured. The assistant went quickly and came back quickly. The doctor who came back was out of breath, and when he saw Wang Xiujin's hand, his beard was so angry that he almost yelled, his fingers were not even red, and he actually invited the doctor, isn't he too delicate.

Wang Xiujin was a little embarrassed by the doctor, he didn't expect shopkeeper Wang to react so quickly, and the waiter didn't know the situation, so he thought something serious happened, so something went wrong.Wang Xiujin could only bow his hands in embarrassment to apologize to the doctor, and asked someone to prepare a carriage to send the doctor back.The doctor understood that things went wrong, so he didn't care too much about it. He just told him not to let such a thing happen again next time.

The guy scratched his head, and was worried that his boss would dislike him because he didn't do a good job.Wang Xiujin was not a fussy person, he just ordered the shopkeeper Wang, and asked the waiter to drive the carriage to send the doctor back, and then asked the shopkeeper to weigh some of this year's new rice and send it to the medical clinic.

After seeing off the doctor, Wang Xiujin didn't have the heart to do other things, so he talked to shopkeeper Wang and left the shop.Originally, Wang Xiujin planned to go back to the General’s Mansion, but before the carriage came back, he decided to sit in the teahouse opposite and listen to the stories told by the storyteller. While waiting for the carriage, he asked for a pot of tea and melon seeds. It's no different than listening to a review.

Holding his chin, Wang Xiujin wondered if it would be possible to hold a storyteller competition in the sports field. If the best one is selected, he will be awarded the title of the world's best storyteller by the royal family, with a certain amount of bonus, and then tour 38 times in Daliang.Thinking of this, the carriage just came back, so he stopped listening to the book, got up and got into the carriage with the servants who were guarding the door, and went to the sports field.

There are countless storytellers in Daliang. It is not so easy to find the best one, but the speed of the business operation is quite fast. Although there is a lot of money in the national treasury, who would think that there is too much money? Biting hands, the royal family has a lot of idlers, and the annual maintenance costs all need money to support them. If you don’t make more money, it is absolutely not enough to rely on various national taxes, even if he spends the money every year. It seems that it is a lot to hand over a part, but so far, the emperor has not spent a lot of money, otherwise the national treasury would have been half empty.

When they arrived at the event venue, Wang Xiujin directly explained the purpose of his visit. After listening to the fifth prince, he was a little puzzled. Isn't this similar to the previous chess king and calligraphy and painting best? Why did Wang Xiujin think of doing this?However, Wang Xiujin shook his head, "The difference is that in the next 38 storytelling tours, a storyteller who was issued a brand by the emperor will not charge money for a book, and let people listen to it for nothing, just follow the corner on stage It’s like singing opera, they say that you have to charge an appearance fee for each performance, but everyone has curiosity, and whoever doesn’t want to hear what is different from what the person who has the brand said is naturally willing to pay to enter the venue to listen .

Seats are far and near, where the location is good, the price will naturally be high, and if the location is not good, the price will be relatively lower, and the earned fee will be distributed to the storytellers, so that they can speak more vigorously and speak better Well, think about it, after more than [-] shows, this year has almost passed, and then a new one will be held in the second year. After the new best comes out, it will be crowned with a certain contest, and then there will be another round of tour , Let the best of the two sessions be on stage at the same time, you say what I say. "

Wang Xiujin explained the competition system to the fifth prince in detail. If it weren't for the era that was not very developed, he would have wanted to make the "Super Girl" set, and it would definitely make a profit. Now I can only think about it in my heart, but it's just the previous one. Those are enough to circle a sum of money.

The fifth prince nodded as he listened, his eyes became brighter the more he listened, ever since he started to take care of the playground, he had to spend money everywhere, and every time he spent money, he had to ask his father for it. There is some surplus, but the premise of the surplus is that the money invested is not paid by him. The fifth prince is also anxious. The things in the playground need to be maintained. If they don’t keep taking money from the treasury, there will be some theaters from time to time. People come here for a walk, he is afraid that he can't afford such a big place.

After carrying the burden for a long time, the fifth prince finally understood why his father died from the defeated country to pick up money after he had been on the battlefield for a long time. Raising a big family includes more aspects. The fifth prince has always wanted to talk to Wang Xiujin about making money, but Wang Xiujin doesn't come here very often. He comes here for one thing or another, and he can't be ashamed to talk about it. Today When his son Wang Xiujin came over, he thought about asking what he wanted to say, and he didn't expect Wang Xiujin to think of it immediately. He just let him know about it and kept it in his heart. He didn't expect Wang Xiujin to bring it up on his own initiative, so it would save him. To save face, you have to force yourself to open your mouth.

Wang Xiujin didn't know what the fifth prince was thinking. After they finished speaking, the two of them said something, Wang Xiujin got up and left, and the fifth prince didn't stay idle. It means that there are four grades of gold, silver, copper and iron. The gold medal is naturally for No.1, and the other three are for the second to fourth place. For a storyteller on tour, you can't let only one person speak in each game. Instead, the four of them take turns, so that everyone can hear it well. The story can be the same, and the four of them can also talk about details such as what they are good at from the beginning to the end. All the premise is that the father To agree.

After the fifth prince entered the palace, he repeated to his father exactly what Wang Xiujin had said to him.The emperor nodded as he listened, just like when the fifth prince heard the proposal, his eyes became brighter and brighter, "I think it is feasible. You should discuss with the emperor about the early stage. Since it was proposed by him, you can ask more questions. Ask him, in terms of making money, you and the fourth child are not as good as him, and looking at the world, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him." The emperor's words are not exaggerated. Well, all kinds of ideas and ideas to make money are all thought up by himself, otherwise, even if the royal family supports an incompetent person, I am afraid that they will not be able to make money.

After Wang Xiujin came out of the playground, he went back to the General's Mansion. When he got home, Li Sushan just came back. The two met at the door. Li Sushan's eyes immediately became warm, waiting for Wang Xiujin to catch up, and then the two entered the door side by side. .While walking, Wang Xiujin was talking about meeting that ritual official today, as for the matter of being taken away by his father, Wang Xiujin didn't know.

As soon as Li Sushan heard that the man had been arrested, he wanted to inquire about it, but looking at Wang Xiujin's appearance, he was afraid that there was nothing else in it, so he had better wait. After his father-in-law asked, he would naturally tell them. What should be let them know, even if you ask again, the father-in-law will not say it.

Three or four days later, Wang Xiujin suppressed the urge to ask his father how things were going, thinking that his father would tell him after the interrogation, and then another day passed.Today, Wang Xiujin decided that he must ask his father, but he can't wait any longer, lest the more he thinks about it, the more entangled he is.Before Wang Xiujin stepped forward to look for his father, he saw the housekeeper of the Wang family looking for him with a letter.The two families were not too far away, but the housekeeper came with a letter. Wang Xiujin couldn't understand what kind of medicine his father was selling in his gourd.

Opening the envelope, Wang Xiujin read it carefully. There was not much detailed record in the letter, only why the ceremonial officer wanted to kill him in the first place, and the fact that the ceremonial officer was not alone, and there were other people who secretly supported him. What happened to Chang was sent by the person who secretly supported him.As for how the ritual officer returned to Beijing this time, what is the purpose, and the person who secretly supported the ritual officer, the letter didn't even mention it, that's it?And as for father writing a letter and asking the housekeeper to make a special trip to deliver it?

Wang Xiujin felt wrong no matter what he thought, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.He took the letter and read it up and down, and even thought about breaking up paragraphs and choosing characters to read. He even wanted to try it by roasting it on fire and dipping it in water, but was stopped by Li Sushan. "I heard that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been very busy recently. As for what it is busy, outsiders can't tell at all. My father-in-law must have no spare time. I only wrote the letter after seeing you, and the content of the letter may also involve some things. , we just waited, with the temperament of the father-in-law, we will definitely not let the family suffer."

Wang Xiujin was silent. If the last words were written more than ten years ago, he would never believe them, but now he does believe them. His father is more and more protective. He heard from his mother that when he was in Chuanfang, the elder sister was at her husband's house. Suffering some small grievances, my father heard about it from nowhere, so he called his brother-in-law to lecture him severely. "Then just wait."

From this day on, when Wang Xiujin went out every day, he always felt that there was a kind of tranquility before the storm in the capital, and there were more people patrolling the streets and lanes, which made Wang Xiujin faintly uneasy. He didn't know if he was too sensitive, or the weather was getting colder. It seems that there are a lot fewer people on the street, and the patrolling people are more conspicuous. Fortunately, Wang Xiujin has a good relationship with the yamen servants, and he casually greets them when they meet them, and there is nothing special about them.

More than ten days later, in the middle of the night, Wang Xiujin was awakened by the sound of Li Sushan turning over and getting out of bed. He stood up and looked at Li Sushan. He was about to speak when Li Sushan covered him. Wang Xiujin stared round his eyes. Li Sushan shook his head and walked away without shoes At the door, take down the bolt without any movement, and then don’t open the door. The yard is quiet, and Wang Xiujin in the room, imitating Li Sushan’s appearance, came out. Standing at the door, he saw the sky in the distance was red. It's not that the sky is getting brighter, and over there, it's not the direction where the sun rises and sets... Is it water?
