Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 352
Now that he no longer had nightmares, Wang Xiujin felt that the matter of adopting the child could be let go, and he did not agree with the village head about the adoption, but only asked him to help him. The conditions for adoption are simple. The abandoned child, Wang Xiujin also emphasized to the village chief not to always think about the baby that is being nursed by other people's homes.Before leaving, he left a big red envelope for the milk baby who was missed by the village head.
The village chief didn't think about adoptive children with parents, but the Li family in the capital deliberately opened their mouths, and he couldn't say anything, so he was happy to send the big red envelope to the baby's family.He didn't make a trip in vain, and went back with a jar of wine, but he was still a little curious about how much money was sealed in the red envelope of the Li family in the capital.The few people who got the unexpected money looked at the hundred taels of silver bills in the red envelope and were very tongue-tied.The woman tightly hugged the hand of the young child, she didn't want to give the child to others, although life was a little bit hard, but she could afford to raise the child.
The man held his wife's hand, "Why don't you go to the capital and send the money to that household, it's not good for us to hold the money for no reason."
The woman thought for a while and nodded in agreement, so the man went to the village chief the next day. He didn't talk about giving money, but said that he felt a little uneasy after taking the red envelopes, and wanted to send some mountain goods to show his heart.The village chief didn't become suspicious, but asked how much money was in the red envelope, but was distracted by the man changing the subject.The village chief didn't say anything when he saw the man, thinking that after the man left, his wife would take the children alone in the village, for fear of being overheard and remembered by others.
Men can't enter the General's Mansion, but it's not difficult to see the Imperial Merchant. The village head told about the Imperial Merchant's shop. The man kept it in mind, and set off for the capital the next day. After the man left, the woman closed the door to thank the guests, even the husband's family and the mother's family came, and the woman also politely sent the man away on the grounds that the child was still young and it was cold, and she was afraid that the child would suffer.
After the man entered the capital, he quickly found the Wang Family Grain Shop, but he didn't see the Emperor Shang. He wanted to hand over the red envelopes to the shopkeeper, but he was worried that something might go wrong. After all, the number of red envelopes was not small, but He couldn't stay longer in the capital, and he still had his wife and children waiting for him at home, so he didn't feel at ease, even if he asked the village chief's aunt to look after him for a while before going out, he was still in a hurry to go back.
After returning to Beijing from Li Village, Wang Xiujin was so busy that he could sit in the shop all day, even if he went to the shop, he would go there in a hurry and leave after staying for a moment. He was really busy, and it was the end of the year. There are too many things to do, but he is as busy as a spinning top, and was dragged by the fourth prince to the security side for a circle. In the words of the fourth prince, Wang Xiujin's eyes are very poisonous, which one has a problem, and he will never escape Those eyes of Wang Xiujin.Wang Xiujin was speechless, he was not a monkey grandson, he could have sharp eyes, he could see monsters and ghosts, and he was lucky to be able to recognize people.But when the Fourth Prince spoke, he naturally couldn't shirk it.The day when the man came to look for Wang Xiujin in the shop happened to be the day when the Fourth Prince dragged him to Anbao to watch him.
Wang Xiujin walked behind the fourth prince, looking at each of the strong men. These people included men who had left the barracks, and some were half-grown children. Wang Xiujin went around and found no special labels, so he shook his head at the fourth prince. The prince breathed a sigh of relief, these people will be sent to big shops everywhere in the future, if there is anything bad, it will ruin his reputation.
When the two left, Wang Xiujin asked about the indemnity of Chuanfang. The main meaning was whether the money could be given to him a year ago.The fourth prince nodded to Wang Xiujin, "How can a dignified merchant be short of this little money? Not long ago, didn't I just distribute this year's ice money to you, I heard that the breeding ponds by the sea also made a lot of money, you stare Is that little compensation tiring?"
"I earn some money from breeding ponds, but after reselling them to workers, I put some out. Where is the rest, I put all the money for ice making into the breeding ponds and boat workshops. It seems that the Chinese New Year is coming soon. The money for the new year’s goods at the shipyard has not yet been settled, and the imperial merchants will have a lot of money?" Wang Xiujin cried poorly, he was not short of the compensation, but he must not miss the opportunity to ask for it, otherwise this matter may not be delayed. At that time, it might be procrastinated in the end, the royal family thought he took the money, and he didn't even see the shadow of the money, the cheap ones were the people from the household department.
The Fourth Prince was not the straightforward person at the beginning, after listening to Wang Xiujin's words, he also understood Wang Xiujin's plan, nodded Wang Xiujin's music, "Success, I will ask you later, I will definitely not let this matter go unnoticed. "
"Thank you, Fourth Prince!" Wang Xiujin cupped his hands in thanks.
After the matter of Qian was over, Wang Xiujin wanted to ask about the follow-up of the rebellion, but before he could open his mouth, the fourth prince suggested to visit the fifth prince, and then he talked about the storyteller competition, so he distracted the matter.After leaving the big security yard, I saw shopkeeper Wang waiting outside the door. The fourth prince knew there must be something, otherwise shopkeeper Wang wouldn't come here to look for someone, so it would be better to hold Wang Xiujin and ask Wang Xiujin for help. After killing the cattle and sheep, they let the people go.
After seeing off the fourth prince respectfully, Wang Xiujin asked shopkeeper Wang what was the matter?Shopkeeper Wang almost scared Wang Xiujin to sit on the ground when he opened his mouth. Luckily, shopkeeper Wang didn’t gasp when he spoke, otherwise Wang Xiujin would have been frightened. “Someone tried to throw a torch into the knitting workshop and was held down. There is no loss in the workshop.”
"Who!" Wang Xiujin's face was so dark that the ink dripped out. What kind of bad luck did he have this year? First the boat workshop, then the knitting workshop. The knitting workshop is full of female workers. If something happens, how much money does he have? Not enough to compensate them.
"That man has a strict mouth and doesn't open his mouth." Shopkeeper Wang's complexion is also not good, one thing is on the left and the other is on the right. If the boat workshop is far away from the capital and the water is gone, there are various reasons. At the foot of the emperor, if something happened, even if the owner was the victim, he would be talked about by some people with ulterior motives. "However, that person should not be familiar with the workshop. The place where he chose to throw the torch is a pond that was built in summer, and now it is only covered with thin ice."
Even so, Wang Xiujin couldn't calm down, "Where did that man go?" Wang Xiujin wanted to tear off the man's flesh and chop it into minced meat.
"I sent it to the grain shop. The knitting workshop is a place for women. The one who threw the torch was a man. It's a bit worse to take him in." Shopkeeper Wang explained carefully. He could feel the coldness emanating from the owner. , the winter sky is getting cold, even if he is wearing thick clothes, he can't stand it anymore.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look in the shop." Wang Xiujin was very angry, but he did not lose his mind. The rebellion happened not long ago, and the leader behind the scenes has not yet caught it. Is the matter in front of him his "personal enmity" or Someone wants to use him to embarrass the emperor?Still need to find out carefully.
When he reached the entrance of the shop, Wang Xiujin didn't notice the man staying at the door, and went directly into the shop.I wanted to give up on Li Cunhan who was about to go out of the city. He had seen Wang Xiujin from a distance once, but now he just felt familiar, and Wang Xiujin's complexion was not good, so he didn't dare to go forward directly, so he thought if this person was an imperial merchant. , he went in and asked the shopkeeper to ask.
The shopkeeper stared at the man for a long time. Ever since the rebels appeared in the capital, the shopkeeper didn't look like a good person, especially the man who had been wandering outside the shop for a long time. The first time I wanted to report to the government, if it wasn't for fear of causing unnecessary trouble to my boss, the man would have been sent to prison long ago.
After the man entered the shop, he directly explained the purpose of his visit without beating around the bush, and took out the red envelope given by Wang Xiujin, but when the shopkeeper wanted to take it for a look, he avoided it.After listening to the man's speech, the shopkeeper kept looking at the man in front of him. He looked like a dealer, "Just wait, I'll ask."
In the backyard, the man who intended to throw the torch was tied to a tree. Wang Xiujin frowned. Will it hurt the tree if he is tied to the tree in winter?This is a fruit tree, if it is injured, will it still bear fruit next year?
The shopkeeper ran in, didn't look at the man tied to the tree, but told the story of the shop, Wang Xiujin frowned, he gave a red envelope, so the man came to return the red envelope?This was the first time someone wanted to return the red envelope he sent out, Wang Xiujin couldn't help being curious, and even lost his anger. "Take a few ice cubes to extinguish the fire for him. If he didn't get angry, how could he think of setting fire."
The servant who was protecting Wang Xiujin listened, and immediately responded, quickly found ice cubes, and stuffed them into the man's clothes.The ice cubes stuck to his skin, making the man shiver from the cold. The man's mouth was blocked, and he could only shake his head non-stop, his eyes full of fear. Unfortunately, even if he shook his head, he couldn't do it, he could only bear it.
On the other side, when Wang Xiujin went to the shop in front, he saw a man with only two words "Sincerity" on the label on his head.Looking at the big red envelope that the man took out, Wang Xiujin seemed to understand the true meaning of "sincerity", but Wang Xiujin did not accept it. The red envelope he sent out would never be taken back, so he began to fool around, "Sincere" people How can I stand against the fraudulent businessman, not only took the red envelope back, but also brought a large piece of beef, I heard that this meat can only be eaten by dignitaries, the emperor also promised that he will be invited to work in the city next year.
The man was sent back to the village by a carriage sent by Wang Xiujin. He was still dizzy in the carriage, and when he got home, he didn't know whether he was stepping forward or backward.
On the contrary, the treatment of the man was the one who was tied to the tree. After Li Sushan heard the servant's report, he rushed over immediately. Looking at the man whose face was turning blue from the cold, he didn't care whether he was dead or alive. , but felt that there was no need to dirty Wang Xiujin's shop, "Give it to the father-in-law for trial? Maybe it has something to do with that?"
Wang Xiujin really wanted to say it's okay, this person is really not an accomplice of the rebels, but a typical street bastard, he asked someone to be a matchmaker before, but was rejected by the woman, and the woman worked in a knitting workshop, this bastard Then the son came up with a bad plan and burned the workshop, and the girl would have no job, so she had to marry him obediently. Thinking about the reason for this, Wang Xiujin wished that he was an accomplice of the rebels, at least he would not be blocked. shortage.
The village chief didn't think about adoptive children with parents, but the Li family in the capital deliberately opened their mouths, and he couldn't say anything, so he was happy to send the big red envelope to the baby's family.He didn't make a trip in vain, and went back with a jar of wine, but he was still a little curious about how much money was sealed in the red envelope of the Li family in the capital.The few people who got the unexpected money looked at the hundred taels of silver bills in the red envelope and were very tongue-tied.The woman tightly hugged the hand of the young child, she didn't want to give the child to others, although life was a little bit hard, but she could afford to raise the child.
