At a quarter of 60, the sky just came out from behind the clouds, an old man dressed in wealth and with a big waist came to the Bishui Pavilion in Wucheng in a carriage. He had just been helped by his servant to get out of the car, and he felt dark in front of him. Because there was already a long queue in front of Bishui Pavilion, he took a closer look and saw that the first few in the row were the old gluttons who used to accompany him for food
The old man raised his head and looked at the sky. At this moment, the genius was bright. He thought he had come early enough, but he didn't expect someone to be earlier than him.
Seeing the sound of wheels rolling at the end of the street, the old man hurriedly asked the young man to take a place first, and he walked a few steps to the front of the three people and said dissatisfied: "Come with you at the appointed time. But I came to occupy the seat in advance, it is not kind!"
The three in the front line were similar in age to the old man. Hearing that, one of them laughed and said: "Outside Zhang, the three of us left the door two quarters before Maoshi, and we just got here in Maoshi. Isn't it a break from our promise?"
Another person said: "We didn't expect Zhang Yuanwai to go out at midnight, and it took two quarters of an hour to arrive."
Hearing this, Member Zhang's beard trembled, but he couldn't say anything to refute, he was furious, but he could only stand obediently in the last row of the line, look at the seven or eight people in the front line, and then look at this building with clear water. The two-story restaurant in the pavilion sighed deeply. It's too late tonight, I don't know if I can get some leftovers
If you put it a month ago, someone should tell Zhang Yuanwai that you will be willing to eat the leftovers after a month, Zhang Yuanwai will be furious and order the young man to drive away the rude person, but now...
The predecessor of this Bishui Pavilion was an inn, the business was mediocre, and there was little interest in it, but a month ago, the inn was suddenly changed into a restaurant and replaced with a "Bishui Pavilion" signboard. Zhang Yuan passed by by chance in front of the Bishui Pavilion. Smelling the fragrance of the food coming out of it, I couldn't move.
What he regrets most now is to inform those shameless old friends of the existence of Bishui Pavilion!
At four quarters, the gate of Bishui Pavilion opened on time. In just two quarters of an hour, a dozen people lined up outside Zhang. Seeing the gate of Bishui Pavilion opened, these local diners lined up orderly, not daring to bully others at all. It's because everyone knows that the new Xuanwei General Ge Xiuwu often came to Bishui Pavilion to hang out and give away things in two days. Obviously, he wanted to marry the owner of Bishui Pavilion. Although the owner of the Bishui Pavilion did not like General Xuanwei, everyone did not dare to make trouble in the Bishui Pavilion.
When they first learned that Bishuige’s head was actually a young girl, they were amazed. Zhang Yuanwai and several old friends even made up their minds. They also have several young and outstanding children. If they can win the hearts of Bishuige’s owners. , Isn’t it true that you can eat whatever you want
Of course, when they learned that General Xuanwei had also come to marry him, they didn't dare to move.
There were more than a dozen tables in the lobby of Bishui Pavilion, with a space in the middle. Everyone was waiting quietly, and then a woman surnamed Zhou came out and said: "Our owner has prepared a steamed goose today, everyone has a good taste. Up."
Although this steamed goose sounds unusual, Chef Gu's craftsmanship is unusual! Everyone craned their necks and looked in the direction of the kitchen.
After a while, two guys came out of the kitchen carrying a whole roasted lamb and placed it on the open space in the middle of the lobby.
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what this had to do with the steamed goose? But sniffing the smell of roast lamb that couldn't help passing through, many people smiled with satisfaction. This whole roasted lamb is so big that I can eat a few more pieces this time.
But seeing the woman surnamed Zhou, lifted a clean knife, cut a small opening in the belly of the sheep, and took out a steamed goose from the belly of the sheep.
An unspeakable scent spread instantly, and the diners swallowed one after another.
Aunt Zhou skillfully chopped up the big goose that had been taken out of the lamb's belly, and everyone looked at it eagerly, and it was a pity to see a little bit of meat sticking to the surface of the knife.
Soon, the steamed goose was divided into nine equal parts and delivered to the diners. Fortunately, Zhang Yuanwai got the last one. The people behind him saw Zhang Yuanwai take the last one. They sighed and asked Aunt Zhou if there were any leftovers
Aunt Zhou laughed and said that roasted whole lamb is also edible. Those who didn't grab the steamed goose all expressed that they could take it.
Aunt Zhou said: "Eating roast lamb in the morning is a bit tired, and our owner is going to learn about the tired fruit wine."
The inside of Bishui Pavilion was quiet, only the diners were eating and the constant admiration. Aunt Zhou held a cup of soup and put it in front of Member Zhang, and said with a smile: "Outside Member Zhang, this is specially prepared for you by our host. Cordyceps chicken soup." The lid was lifted and the strong fragrance spread. Member Zhang, who was eating the steamed goose cautiously, swallowed and couldn't help but smile: "Boss Gu is so polite."
Other diners have cast their attention, wondering why this member can be given preferential treatment
Aunt Zhou smiled and said: "Our owner heard that Huacheng has a very unique ingredient, and wanted to open a branch in Huacheng. I heard that you have some contacts in Huacheng outside of Zhang."
Huacheng is the border town of Chen State, which is only tens of miles away from Wucheng, but customs clearance documents are not so easy to handle. Even if it is done, it will be difficult for Qi people to take root in Chen State, let alone open a store and do business. Up.
Although Zhang Yuanwai was a native of Qi, he had friendship with the merchants in Huacheng, and even the local officials in Huacheng. Hearing this, I understood it, and immediately agreed. Aunt Zhou was overjoyed, thanked him, and said: "What else Zhang would like to eat in the future, just say one thing, our boss said, three meals a day will be prepared for you."
"Niangniang, there is news from Bianguan, saying that Gu Zhaorong has found a way and will be able to open a shop in Chen Guo soon."
Yao Yanyan was taking a nap when he received the news, and the sleepworm ran away immediately after hearing this. She looked at Qinghu in surprise, "So fast?" Gu Zhaorong has only been there for less than three months! This is too great!
Qinghu said excitedly: "It was Gao Zhuzi who knew it when he met someone outside. This is a letter from the border gate."
The letter was sealed with fire paint, and Yao Yanyan opened it and read it quickly.
On the surface, Qi and Chen have concluded a friendly covenant, but in fact they are both guarding each other. Although the business channel has now been opened, only some ordinary items are allowed to be traded. Regarding the large-scale sale of luxury goods, Chen Guo's attitude has always been very strict and guarded, for fear that Qi Guo will get some impractical silk incense. Anointed in exchange for their money and food.
However, the laws of the Chen Kingdom expressly forbid it, and it cannot stop the merchants from secretly arranging their positions. Businessmen like silk balm can make huge profits. Those merchants would rather take the risk of beheading. Yao Yanyan once sighed for this, asking for money but not life.
Gu Zhaorong wants to go to Chen Guo to open a store, but it is not easy to say, because judging from the identity they have arranged for Gu Zhaorong, it is impossible for her to easily get the customs clearance certificate and open the store smoothly on Chen Guo. But now that Gu Zhaorong has found the way on his own, everything is in order.
With the cover of that "Zhang Yuanwai", the people of Chen Guo should not doubt Gu Zhaorong. After all, in their eyes, Gu Zhaorong and Aunt Zhou, as well as the children from Anbu, are a group of weak women and children. Where can they easily think about the spies
Picking up a pen and replied a letter of encouragement to Gu Zhaorong, Yao Yanyan endured her sleepiness and turned through the account books sent below.
The business of powder shop and silk is very good. Now only the few shops in the capital can bring tens of thousands of taels of profit in one month. Especially after your Majesty ordered the liberalization of the people’s clothing restrictions, many private wealthy households also compete I want to buy some colorful silk, of course, the bright yellow silk that symbolizes the royal family. No one has dared to sell it yet, let alone buy it.
People from the Weaving Bureau and the Ministry of Industry improved the loom. It used to be able to weave a piece of cloth in seven days. Now a skilled female worker can weave a piece of cloth in three days. After dismissing dozens of concubines in the palace, many of the palace ladies no longer served, so Yao Yanyan ordered people to fill the vacant palaces with looms so that they could also learn to weave. Now this harem has become In the cloth workshop and the rouge powder workshop, you can see the high racks for drying silk and the dustpan for drying flowers and grass. Outsiders come in and look at them and they may be surprised to drop their chins. But if it weren't, there would not be so many silk and balsam powders sold in the palace.
Yao Yanyan occasionally went out for a stroll, and every time she stood on a high place and looked at the gorgeous silks flying around in the palace, she felt happy that the day for them to become rich is not far away.
"What happened to Mulberry Garden?"
Qinghu smiled and said: "Back to Niangniang, Zheng Chongyi and Wang Xiuyuan are about to take charge of Mulberry Garden now! The number of silkworms is increasing. Zheng Chongyi said with slave servants yesterday that Mulberry Garden is now a bit tight and asked if it could be expanded. local?"
Yao Yanyan nodded and agreed. However, she had a hunch in her heart that the price of silk should slowly come down.
After all, people have been misled by lotus silk in the past, thinking that only the silk thread drawn from the plant can be woven into cloth, and people think that the silk spit out by insects is probably as poisonous as spiders.
But now it's different. The name of silk has been spread out. It is estimated that some people will find silkworms in the near future. By that time, the silk business will not be monopolized by the palace.
It seems that I have to find something that comes quickly, and I don't know when Zhou Wanxiang can imitate the essential oils.
Like your majesty, Yao Yanyan feels a little distressed every time he sees that the money he just earned has to be put into the forging equipment of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, or replaced with grain to fill the granary, but with the shadow of the past life, the two of them dare not relax at all. Naturally, there has been no chance to build the Star Reaching Building that your Majesty is thinking about.
She touched her belly and said to the baby: "All this is worth it. Today's hard work will inevitably usher in the bright and beautiful tomorrow. Are you right, baby..." As soon as the voice fell, she suddenly felt the abdomen lightly When it hurt, she was stunned for a moment, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
Seeing her look different, Qinghu hurriedly asked: "Manny, what's the matter?"
Yao Yanyan looked up at her, and said in surprise: "Green pot, the baby seems to have kicked me!" She has been pregnant for more than seven months. Although she did not suffer from the horror of vomiting like Princess Fengyang, her body was a bit fatter. Circle, often backaches and backaches, and swelling and weakness in the legs in the middle of the night, Yao Yanyan sometimes complained to her belly twice. She could feel a life in her belly, but she never got a response, but today, the baby actually kicked Give her a bit!
Yao Yanyan: "I have to tell your majesty quickly!"
And your Majesty, is sitting in the imperial study room at this moment, discussing with Prime Minister Lin about the construction of the Xingwen Museum.
Prime Minister Zhang’s case was sentenced at the beginning, but the people have been kept in prison. Two days ago, he was finally released to ask and cut. His Majesty the Emperor looked at it with a very complicated mood. On the way, he heard the people around him talking about this chapter. The prime minister was guilty of violating power, and so on.
He just stopped in the street for a while, and he heard many crimes committed by the Prime Minister Zhang, and many of them were buckled on the head of Prime Minister Zhang by his account of Anbu. After listening to those, he deeply felt: The people are really a bit stupid, and they believe whatever they say.
He feels that these people who blindly spread rumors are a bit like the self who was trapped in the palace at the beginning, because they don't read books! No, these people have no books to read.
In his previous life, he didn't read books, so he believed whatever Prime Minister Zhang said, and the people of Qi, because they didn't have books to read, they couldn't open up their minds, and it was difficult to find talents.
Thinking of the dozens of advanced scholars who have been promoted this time, most of them come from wealthy families, but how many wealthy families can there be in a city
An ordinary book in the library costs one or two dollars. Many students from poor backgrounds can’t afford the books, so they can only copy and borrow them. So how can they compare to those students from rich backgrounds? And the number of ordinary people is far more than that of the rich. If the people who came from the poor can also have books, wouldn't the Qi country be able to produce more talents
This is why the emperor wanted to build Xingwen Museum. He wanted to build Xingwen Museum across the country. People who can read can copy and read books.
The emperor had this heart, and Prime Minister Lin was naturally in favor of it. He just wanted to build the Xingwen Museum across the country. The cost of silver was not a small amount. Prime Minister Lin meant that now, try to build one in the capital. If it works, then Push to the whole country. The two were discussing, and Gao Gonggong reported: "Your Majesty, Feng Shangshu asks for a meeting."
As soon as Feng Yuan came in, he said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Chen has sent troops to expedition, already..."
His Majesty the Emperor trembled, and said in shock: "Have you hit Wucheng?!"
Prime Minister Lin was also taken aback.
Feng Yuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't be surprised, Chen Guo sends troops this time to attack Wu Guo.
His Majesty the Emperor: "Guo Wu?"
Feng Yuan said: "A few days ago, Chen State sent envoys to Wu State, but the envoy was assassinated in Wu State. Emperor Chen was furious, so he launched his army to defeat Wu."
His Majesty: "Emperor Chen is really vicious. In order to become famous, he even killed himself!"
