Why are all the emperors from ancient times to the present happy to go to the south of the Yangtze River
There is of course a reason for this. First, Jiangnan is a land of fish and rice, so it is rich and wealthy; secondly, the four seasons in the south of the Yangtze River are warm and peaceful like spring.
Therefore, I think this "the emperor goes to the south of the Yangtze River" is somewhat similar to the monk in the temple who goes out to cook food.
However, His Majesty the Emperor is naturally no better than those poor monks. He is not holding an ordinary wooden bowl. His Majesty the Emperor is holding a bright purple-gold bowl. This Zijin Bowl is nothing else, it is "the authority of the Central Government to traffic and sell tea".
This authority is firmly in the hands of the Hangzhou Lu family, that is, my grandfather. At that time, the biggest tycoon in the country was the Lu family, and nothing happened to our Shen family. However, my grandfather was destined to be childless, and all the babies born were either premature or sickly. In the end, only my mother was left with an only daughter. The whole family was very precious. When I was betrothed to my father, the dowry It took more than half a month to complete the shipment after stacking one truck after another.
In the early years, my grandfather had inherited two sons from the Lu family's collateral line. I don't want to, two years after my mother got married, my grandfather ascended to immortality on the front foot, and arrived with an imperial decree on the back foot. He listed ten crimes and justifiably confiscated the Lu family. The tree fell and scattered, and all the assets of the Lu family were charged into the national treasury, that is, The emperor's pocket. However, there are rumours that the wealth that the late emperor had seized from the Lu family was far from being as plentiful as estimated. Since then, there has been a rumor in the market that in fact, Master Lu saw that Lu Jiashu's big move was going to decline, and he thought about it a long time ago and transferred his assets bit by bit. Where did it go? The Lu family is thin, and everyone guessed that my mother is on the head. I don’t think my mother is also a beauty and a poor life. After giving birth to me, I will be immortal only three years later, and the Shen family is not as everyone guessed. And the Lu family became rich overnight, but with my father's diligent efforts to expand the business little by little, everyone can see it, so the whereabouts of the Lu family's bulk assets is still a mystery.
After my grandfather passed away, the power to transport and sell tea was also withdrawn, and it was evenly distributed among the various tea-producing places. The tea merchants checked and balanced each other for many years, but I did not see which one was bigger. Unexpectedly, when the emperor went down to the south of the Yangtze River at a banquet for businessmen, Jinkou opened up and said that he wanted to regroup the tea power from various places and set up a unified transportation power. Since ancient times, tea and salt have been the two lifebloods, and if you hold the power of tea, you will undoubtedly wait for the gold in the future. For a time, the major merchants were eager to try, and everyone wanted to take this opportunity to jump into the dragon gate. Of course, this also includes my father and Song Xiyuan.
In the end, who came out on top? The emperor's unique insight fell in love with Song Xiyuan, a tea addict. In this regard, His Majesty the Emperor said: "Song Xiyuan is a young and promising businessman, he has a deep knowledge of tea, and has unique insights. I am very relieved to hand over the power to transport and sell tea to him."
Afterwards, I vaguely heard that Song Xiyuan had spent 5 million taels of snowflake silver to donate a small and insignificant official, and all the merchants suddenly realized that they had no regrets. Looking at Song Xiyuan, it is obvious that he has not paid a cent, but in fact he has invested a lot of money, and there is no suspicion of bribery. Donating officials is not a justifiable reason. Calling His Majesty the Emperor not only wiped away his face, but also filled the treasury. And I also heard that somehow, through Song Xiyuan's matchmaking, the nine princesses who accompanied them fell in love with the prefect of Hangzhou, and they waited for the emperor's decree to marry him when they returned to the capital.
Song Xiyuan's up and down management was very successful this time. After more than a month, His Majesty the emperor had a lot of alms, and by the way, he reluctantly brought a Jiangnan beauty that Song Xiyuan presented to the capital with satisfaction. Everyone gets what they want, everyone is happy.

After sending this Buddha away, the days went by in a smooth and unhurried manner. In a flash, it was three years. Song Xiyuan's business was booming, and Pei Yanzhen took the seat of the Governor of Liangjiang. On the contrary, Chaquan looked very happy and relieved. The big brother is now officially learning to do business with his father... Everything is done logically, but only one thing makes me a little sad...
It is the little doll of Tang Yuan. Very disturbing.
When the dolls of other families are this big, they must be jumping up and down like a skin monkey, and they are about to go to the house, but the glutinous rice balls are different. They are as well-behaved and gentle as a girl. Bai Baiqing was leaning on the veranda holding a little white cat sent by Song Xiyuan, listening to the private school teacher who was invited to teach his little brother at home, shaking his head and reciting those sour words. It makes me sad!
This child did not cry much when he was still in swaddling, and was very quiet and peaceful. When he was a little older, he liked to laugh and not to cry. There was no one in the family who didn't like it, from parents to aunties and servants. The more you grow up, the more you follow me. It really confirms the folk saying that "female Xiao's father and son are like mothers", let's forget Bai Nen, but I don't think that his temperament will not follow me at all, and there is no sign of being active in martial arts. The team played martial arts, and I took him to listen to it, but this kid always had a way to fall asleep to the sound of clanging and clanging fighting.
When I was one year old, I set out a table of weapons, ranging from swords and hammers to small darts and silver needles, at the ceremony of catching Zhou. Song Xiyuan and Pei Yanzhen were also present at the time. Song Xiyuan must have rushed over halfway through the business, with ink marks on his hands.
I saw Tang Yuan opened her deer-like wet and dark eyes and looked at the table full of flowers. Under my earnest expectation, she stretched out a pair of small hands and grabbed the palm of Song Xiyuan's casually placed on the table. He licked the still-dry ink stains on his hands. I was devastated at the moment, is this child also a little white face who is destined to drink ink in the future? Really makes people want to cry without tears.
Pei Yanzhen hugged the dumplings without saying a word, took a glass of water and coaxed him to grunt and spit it out, which could be regarded as clearing the ink in his mouth. Song Xiyuan was very happy, and in the future, he spoiled the dumplings more and more, and sent some strange things to tease him every now and then. The little white cat was sent by him a while ago.
It's just that the cat has always been active and likes to stalk around to get mice. How can he spend such a quiet time with the dumplings and disappear all day long. Later, I don't know who made the kitten's beard cut short and neat. You must know that a cat's beard is no better than a human beard. A cat's beard and a cat's body are generally wide and narrow just to measure the size of a mouse's hole. As soon as it was cut, the cat didn't know that, of course, it still used the beard to draw the hole, and found that the hole was wider than the beard. Found it and pulled it out. After two or three times, the cat became interested in drilling a hole to get a mouse. In addition, the nails on its paws were cut by someone, and after that, they didn't run around very much. .
Everyone said that three-year-olds look old, but I can no longer tell Shen Xiao to be so quiet, so I asked someone to hire a martial arts instructor to teach Tang Yuan to learn martial arts together with my little brother. Although the dumplings are not easy to move, they have always been sensible and obedient, so they obediently met the master that day. The master frowned at the tender dumplings like a piece of water tofu, thinking that he had never brought such an apprentice before, and he didn't know how to teach him. up, hesitating.
But you might as well put her head up, winked innocently with a pair of phoenix eyes that had just begun to take shape, pulled the hem of my clothes, and said in a milky voice, "Mother, I have seen this master."
"Huh?" I looked at Tang Yuan inexplicably and asked him, "Where have you seen it?" The martial arts instructor was also inexplicably startled.
But Wen Tangyuan said: "The master posted on the door is the master, and the green warbler said that you can control the house." Then she turned around and asked the martial instructor curiously, "Master, can you control the house?"
Uh... I suddenly realized that Tang Yuan was referring to the door god posted on the door. Well, this martial arts head looks like a big five-three with a thick face, but it is not as ferocious and hideous as a door god. How can you learn such a poisonous mouth, this worrying child.
This is good, the martial artist also reacted immediately, his rough face flushed red, he snorted and hugged me with two breaths: "Miss Shen, I'm afraid this young master is not as thick as us. People are generally able to withstand beatings, so I'm afraid that the little ones can't take on this heavy responsibility, so please ask Miss Shen to hire Gao Ming." After speaking, he turned his head and walked out.
I made a series of apologies not to say that the child has no intentions, but the master is also a stubborn temper, and he will not return one when he is facing.
After that, I invited a few more masters, and they all came to resign within two days. After the three masters were replaced by the revolving lanterns, the dumplings did not even learn how to tie a horse. He said straightly: "This child is not a piece of martial arts material, don't make it difficult for him!" After that, he never invited a martial arts instructor, and let Tang Yuan be gentle and delicate.
Reciting the leisurely pace of heaven and earth, I feel lonely but shed tears...
