September is about to enter, and the climate in Beijing is still pleasant, but the grassland will feel chilly in the morning and evening.

In addition to jackets and vests, small sweaters and clothes should also be turned out and prepared.

Shu Shu felt a little sad.

Mrs. Baylor would be polite when she saw the prince Fu Jin, but Mrs. Beizi would be respectful when she saw the prince Fu Jin!

Think about the deposed crown prince, the string of princes, county princes, and the shells on the ninth prince...

At that time, there will be a bunch of princes flanking Fujin, and county princes flanking Fujin...

Shu Shu felt that Viscount Bei's rank was too low.

I had never thought about the discussion of etiquette among female relatives before.

If they are older and younger according to their status, this salute is enough. After all, they are all elders.

But according to the level of the title...

It seems I can't bear it...

Not only does she have to pay tribute to countless blessings, but her children also have to be born into the prince's palace and the prince's palace. After the elder brother is born, he is not even as good as a commoner.

The same emperor and grandson, why?

Shu Shu felt her heart was a little confused.

Facing the temptation of power, remaining calm and calm really requires concentration.

It is not easy to settle for mediocrity.

Even before Ninth Prince had the idea of ​​seizing his legitimate son, Shu Shu had ambitions.

She asked Walnut to dig out the pen and ink, and began to write her own notes to calm herself down.

The grassland scenery is vast and magnificent...

The sadness of the eldest daughters marrying far away...

There are also prosperous business opportunities contained in this frontier land...

Shu Shu was a little stunned.

The "filial piety" shown by Brother Nine to Kangxi the day before yesterday was considered the first...

There will be a second crop and a third crop in the future...

When can I accumulate a prince hat?

Not to mention reaching the sky in one step, it is fundamental to become a prince or a prince.

Just as she was thinking about it, someone pulled the pen out of her hand.

"Are you thinking about some evil ways?"

It's Brother Jiu who is back.

While playing with the brush, he teased, his eyes wandering over Shu Shu's body, his expression waning.

Shu Shu did not smile, but leaned into Brother Jiu's ear and whispered seriously: "I'm wondering how much gold I need to change my hat into a county prince's hat..."

Brother Jiu's hand stopped and he looked at Shu Shu and said, "How do you bring this up?"

Shu Shu didn't hide it, pointed to the direction of the upper room, and said with emotion: "If my title is lowered, I don't know how many people will have to pay tribute to Fujin in the future..."

The two princes are flanking Fujin, and the prince is flanking Fujin.

In addition to the princes who were later crowned princes or county kings, there were more than a dozen princes and county princes outside the clan.

Brother Jiu took Shu Shu's hand and whispered: "The belt idea is hopeless... But it can be done once, not twice, it's just a one-time deal... Selling medicine can be a long-term success.

...I guess I can save a lot of money by then..."

Shu Shu thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "No one can be taken advantage of. Even if the sales are good at the beginning, what will happen in the future? Some tribes in Mongolia are not far from the capital, and many princes' sons are working in the capital... When the time comes, we will figure out the price difference.

It will be difficult to do business..."

Brother Ninth fell into deep thought, and finally felt helpless: "Yes, the two places are connected with each other, and they are not separated for a long time... The side of Monan Mongolia is just a one or two years of living; the side of Mobei is far away from Beijing, and the children are in Beijing. There are only a few, and it can last for two or three more years..."

As he said this, he felt a bit reluctant: "Will this trade route be useless in two or three years? Otherwise, let's try selling tea on the border..."

After hearing this, Shu Shu quickly shook her head.

Since she started paying attention to tea, she has checked a lot of information.

The business of selling tea on the border is really hard to get involved in.

In the decades since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the border tea market has matured.

For the sales of official tea in Mongolia, the departmental invoice system is adopted.

This ticket, similar to a tea ticket, was issued by the Lifanyuan Yamen.

The Lifanyuan is divided into three seasons: spring, summer and winter, and invoices should be sent to three local yamen.

In the spring, it was issued to the "Suiyuan General's Mansion" in Guihua City, in the summer to the "Chahar Dutong Mansion" in Zhangjiakou, and in the winter to the "Tongzhi Yamen" in Dolonnoor.

Tea merchants collect tickets from Guihua City, Zhangjiakou, and Duolonuoer, and then sell tea in a limited area.

If you intervene casually, it will do more harm than good.

If you want to start a tea business at home, you can take the high-end route.

In addition to several prosperous places in the capital and Jiangnan, if you want to expand the market, you can also try exporting to the East or the West.

Shu Shu explained it carefully to Brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu nodded, and then shook his head: "Being a knight is not that simple. This does not involve bringing people into the banner, but only the princes and lieutenants under the five banners. A high title will easily cause dissatisfaction in the clan; bringing people into the flag will be divided. The one who is the leader of the Three Banners, Khan Ama probably doesn’t want to send more people out... The fifth brother and the others are on the side of military merit. In addition, there are only two county princes, and the others are Baylor, so the clan is still living well... If you want to have a higher title when you first receive the title, in addition to money, you have to save some other merits..."

Speaking of this, he said with annoyance: "If only I had been born two years earlier, I could have caught up with this wave... Once Galdan died, Mongolia fell into pieces, and we could live in peace for a while..."

Shu Shu thought about the known history.

When will the desert Mongolia become turbulent again?

The period from the later years of Kangxi to the early years of Yongzheng was also the time when the Fourteenth Prince, the "Great General King", and Nian Gengyao, the "Nian Great General", were most prosperous.

It was already several years after the second prince was ennobled.

"Don't be in a hurry, take your time... Aren't you going to make some plans when you go back? Then let's think about it and see if there is anything related to the people's livelihood..."

Shu Shu said: "Just make two preparations, make contributions, and save more money..."

Although this kind of credit is not comparable to military merit, if you really improve weapons or farm tools, it is also a political achievement that cannot be ignored.

Brother Ninth nodded, looking bright and cheerful: "Don't worry, I will definitely earn you the title of Prince Fujin..."

Shu Shu nodded without hesitation and looked at Brother Jiu with trust.

Even if Jiu Age alone is not strong enough, he still has the bonus of his own fortune.

It’s not like you’re competing for the throne, but you still can’t earn the title of a county king?

Shu Shu gained confidence and her face became more relaxed.

Brother Jiu was a little hesitant, hesitating again and again, and said: "Forget it about making money, Lao Shi is not short of money; how about accumulating merit, can I hold Lao Shi back?"

When Shu Shu heard the words, she opened her mouth, not knowing where to start.

The tenth prince is the son of a noble concubine, he does nothing, and he is crowned as the county king at first.

If I do it, will I be crowned a prince for the first time?

Most likely he is still the county king, because he needs to be suppressed and leave room for the next emperor to show favor.

Who is called the tenth prince?

According to the rules of the Taizu Dynasty or the Taizong Dynasty, if the prince makes a mistake or the throne is unstable, the tenth prince will be the next candidate for the prince.

But Kangxi's behavior was very contradictory.

Sometimes I pay more attention to my concubine, and sometimes I forget about my concubine.

Otherwise, he would not promote his eldest brother and create a situation where the eldest son and his legitimate son would compete.

After Brother Ninth asked, he also thought about the powerful relationship between them, and became frustrated: "The brothers next to me can earn titles through meritorious service, but Old Ten can only live in a dawdle in this life..."

Shushu silently.

Thinking about it from another angle, this is the way to save yourself.

If he really wants to make great achievements, then unless he takes the position himself or the ninth elder brother takes the position, anyone who takes the position will be afraid of him.

Just like the situation of Prince Yeyeol in the Taejong Dynasty.

Brother King, the leader of all kings, seems to be in a prestigious position, but in fact he is walking on thin ice.

There was also Prince Suwu, the elder brother of the Shizu Dynasty, who received a lot of grace, but that was because he had been killed by Dorgon.

The current elder brother Wang Yu, Prince Fuquan, has been silent for ten years since the 29th year of Kangxi.

Back then, Kangxi needed to promote his brothers to fight against the clan princes, so he made several of his brothers princes and transferred a large number of people from Shangsanqi to them.

When the clan kings passed away one after another, Kangxi was in great power and no longer needed his brothers to rely on each other, so he took back many assistants, and the princes were left idle.
