Chapter five hundred and ten Lian Heng
This movement of Pearl almost made Hongsi scream. This gold and silver jewelry is the most delicate. The appearance is novel and unique, and the workmanship is fine. You must be careful when storing it. How could the palace master twist it so hard.
The boy who was kneeling below saw Pearl's movement and had a smile on his lips. He didn't say anything, lowered his head and knelt down in a dignified manner.
Pearl held the hairpin in her hand and played with it for a while, then made some gestures on her head, and said to Wu Wu: "Put the hairpin on for me and see." Wu Wu held the empty box in his hand and kept it in place.
He was stunned for a long time, he knew that Pearl meant to him, so why
Why should I go over to insert hairpins? To put hairpins on a woman's eyebrows is part of the joy of the boudoir, and it is a very ambiguous matter. No matter what the reason is, although Wu Wu can't figure it out,
Still holding it involuntarily
He walked over to the empty box, took the hairpin from Pearl's hand, and made gestures on her head. He saw that the palace owner seemed to be staring at the inside of the box. It turned out that he was not asking him to come over to "insert" the hairpin, but to let the box
Come here. I don’t know why.
Why is the Lord so awkward? If she says, "Bring the box over," can he not take it over? Why do you have to find such a way that is full of ambiguity and makes others fantasize? It's fun to tease people, or something?
Wu Wu cursed in his heart.
Putting aside the awkwardness in Wu Wu's heart, Pearl saw that there seemed to be a piece of folded white silk under the brocade spread at the bottom of the box, and there seemed to be looming ink marks on it. Finally she found it, Pearl stretched out her hand to take the piece of white silk, opened it and looked at it
There is only one short line, which reads: About the Prince's assassination
You must use all your strength to investigate the guest incident. The following is signed with the character "Heng". This time the jewelry gift incident has finally come to light. This is King Heng telling himself through the Silver Tower that he is responsible for everything. But everyone is blaming each other.
, the conspiracy stumbles, he will also return the truth to Pearl.
Pearl's heart felt hot when she saw it. King Heng was telling her that he was still there at the critical moment. Pearl tried her best to calm down her emotions, sniffed, put the white silk into her sleeve, and returned the golden hairpin to the robe.
, raised his head and said to the guy. "This hairpin
I like it very much, but don’t force anything. It doesn’t matter whether the hairpins in the future are exquisite or not. What’s important is the hairpin itself. The most important thing is the authenticity. Your bank is already busy, so don’t let a hairpin delay your business.
Errand."[
"The general's lesson is right, we will be measured. We have to be busy, so we can't slack off on this matter. The boss is very angry, so the hairpin is ready, and I have sent the little one to deliver it. If you have any requests, general, just tell me
There are many skilled craftsmen in the silver building, which will satisfy the general. I hope the general will not be polite. Since the general likes the way he looks today, then I will let him go.
I'm relieved. I'll go back and talk to the shopkeeper. If there are any new tricks in the future, I'll send them to you right away. Don't worry, General." The clerk kowtowed again and stood up to leave. "Since I brought you hairpins, how could you not?
Get the silver and go back. Hongsi gives this little brother a gold ingot for running errands and three hundred taels of silver for jewelry. Send him out," Pearl ordered.
The young man stood for a moment, then took the money from the pearl with a calm face, and exited the study. Chensheng accompanied him all the way to the gate, and sent the young man off very politely. Chensheng was about to enter.
, I saw a flat-headed carriage entering the alley. There were no signs on the carriage.
, followed by about a dozen horse-riding entourage. When they got closer, Chen Sheng saw that it was Mr. Wu, so he hurriedly ran down the steps and greeted him personally below: "Our general was talking about it just now, but by chance you are here."
Here you go, please slow down." Chensheng held Mr. Wu's hand and got out of the car.
Chensheng took Mr. Wu directly to the study room, where he also got the news. When he saw Mr. Wu coming, he opened the curtain and let Mr. Wu go in directly. Mr. Wu wore ear protection, a fox fur cloak, and a chinchilla skin.
Weaknesses, he
She was already fat and wore so much, so her whole body was made of cotton, like a big moving rice dumpling. Seeing Mr. Wu come in, Pearl quickly stood up and gave up her seat, "I invite you over at this time, it's really important.
I’ll discuss it with you.”
Master Wu first greeted Pearl, then took off his cloak and handed it to the boy beside him. He took the hand stove from another boy and held it in his arms. Is it that cold? Pearl seriously doubted that she was a woman and a human being.
A frail and sickly woman, but she barely feels any cold
Come on, it hasn't snowed since the beginning of winter. She only wore a leather jacket and skirt. She never used the hand stove and foot stove once. There was only one smoker in the house, which made her feel that the weather in the south was really warm.
, but seeing Mr. Wu acting like this, I realized that winter is also very cold.
This is Pearl's carelessness. Not to mention that Mr. Wu is over fifty years old, he does not have the cooks and medicine witches from the temple to specialize in conditioning his body. How can Master Wu drink fairy porridge with her every day?
People who eat nutritious meals have never paid attention to these pearls, which is why I am confused today.
The head of the Wu family rested in the room for a long time, and Pearl saw that he had probably calmed down, so she said: "Master Wu, I went to the palace to see the emperor today, and I accidentally took on an errand. I thought Master Wu might do the same."
I was interested, so I called you to discuss it." After Pearl said, she looked at Mr. Wu and did not continue. Mr. Wu didn't say anything either, looking attentive and waiting for Pearl to continue.
"The emperor's treasury has no money, and there will be no money for next year's war and court expenses. I told the emperor that I could lend him money, and then asked him to give me the right to manage official salt. Finally, the emperor and several veterans of the cabinet said
I was asked to pay for it, and I finally thought about it and agreed. I will bring it to the head of the Wu family today just to ask how much silver it would be appropriate to buy." Pearl said, counting the rosary beads in her hand.
Mr. Wu's eyes sparkled after hearing this. He looked at Pearl seriously for a few times, leaned forward and said in a low voice: "My lady asked me to come, do you also plan to share my share of the pie? There are people in the Wei Dynasty who have the right to manage the official salt."
There are many people who are willing to pay millions of taels of silver but it is not available. There is no price for this. As long as I can buy this management right, I will pay any amount of money. I am willing to share the burden with the lady, and when the time comes, I will be able to run the horse for the lady.
Just the legs." Mr. Wu's attitude was very low, because no matter how rich he was, he still couldn't get this management right, and if Pearl could get it, he had long recognized Pearl as his master, and this time Pearl came to him
Probably because she wanted to share his share of the pie, and secondly because she could see such a big piece of fat and couldn't eat it. No matter what the reason was, of course it had to be dominated by other people. As long as she had the right to operate the official salt, she would be able to eat it.
You won’t have to worry about making money from now on.
Of course, Pearl knows how impressive the official salt management rights were in ancient times. Official salt has always been exclusively owned by the state. Being able to obtain the official salt management rights means that she has obtained the permission to monopolize the country's economic lifeline. The temple has salt, but she has always
I am thinking about a way to produce salt without the gods knowing it, and how to cover up the fact that there is salt in the temple. That is, unless you have the right to operate salt, it is best to have a salt farm, so that you can have one-stop production and sales.
.
This idea is perfect for Tianyi, but how to achieve it, Pearl has never been clear about it. This matter has been lingering in her mind since she learned that there is salt in the temple. The best way is to tell the emperor directly and let him The emperor gave himself the right to operate official salt, or gave himself a salt farm. It didn't matter which one he got. She was not so delusional about getting it at the same time.
But every time he met the emperor, he always ended up unhappy. Then there was still a chance to ask for his favor. Pearl didn’t know what was going on. Emperor Wei was a self-righteous person who always had a way to irritate himself, so he did it himself. His loyal minister, isn't it good to be a pure minister? After many contacts with the emperor, Pearl found that she had no chance at all. She couldn't handle all the messy things that were coming her way, let alone this matter. So it was put on hold.
Today, when she was in Nuange of Qianqing Palace, she happened to encounter Emperor Wei and his cabinet ministers who were at a loss for money for the treasury in the coming year. She had an idea, and the plan that had been lingering in her mind reappeared. It was a God-given opportunity. She had the opportunity to use a She said it as a savior, and in turn asked them to beg her. Thinking about Pearl made her laugh.
Pearl looked at the excited head of the Wu family. He must still not know that this was not the entire conversation she had with the emperor and ministers. She wondered what her expression would be like if she knew the whole story. "I see, but not only did I ask the emperor for In order to obtain the official salt management rights, I also need a salt farm, which requires more money. You also know how much money I have, and my money may not even be enough to pay for one." After Pearl finished speaking, she stopped. , looking at the head of the Wu family.
"I will pay for the rest of the money, whether it is lent to the general or the general allows me to take shares. If the emperor agrees to these two places, we will definitely get them, even if we lose all our money, we will get them. "The head of the Wu family didn't wait for Pearl to speak, and immediately said that he would pay for the money. According to his experience in dealing with Pearl, Pearl would not ask for his money for nothing. Businessmen pursue profit. This is determined by the nature of capital. No wonder Head of the Wu family, he has always wanted to get involved in the sales and production of official salt, but he has no chance. Today, Zhenzhu took the initiative to ask him to borrow money. How could he not borrow it? Even if Zhenzhu didn't let him get involved now, it wouldn't be possible. He will not be allowed to get involved in the future. As long as these two rights are in Pearl's hands, he will have hope.
"I don't know the market price. I may have one million taels in hand. I'll ask the head of the Wu family to prepare the rest. If it's similar to what I think, we'll come to a conclusion in the next few days. Don't worry. When the time comes, the emperor's things will be given to you, but we won't be able to come up with any money." Pearl said.
