Shen Guan, who didn't get an answer, showed displeasure on his face, "What? Shopkeeper Ding is worried that I won't pay you? Don't worry, I'll charge you as much as you have, just use Jiaozi to settle the bill."
The officials of the Song Dynasty were very rich despite being very wealthy. This was also related to the court's good policy towards literati.
Besides, this time Shen Guan asked for perfume not for himself, but for the nobles in the palace. After he got two bottles last time, one was left for his favorite concubine, and the other was for toiletries. The people were sent to the imperial palace in Bianliang City.
Shen Guan was able to get the position of Shaoyin because there was someone behind him, and she was the mother of the country, Empress Cao.
A bottle of perfume was given as a fresh gift. But Shen Guan underestimated the allure of perfume to women. No, Empress Cao was very satisfied after using it, so she sent a message saying that such a thing was for her. need more.
This is the queen's intention, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the key point is Yizhi.
After receiving the message, Shen Bing personally waited for a businessman here regardless of his identity.
It can be said that Shen Guan gave Ding Wanshi enough face, but he did not get the results he needed, which made him look a little ugly.
"It's just a mere perfume, how come it's gone? So, hurry up and buy the goods, I'm here to use them in a hurry." Shen Guan, who had no idea about the importance and strangeness of perfume, said something out of the ordinary.
Hearing this in Ding Wanshi's ears made him look ugly.
Just a perfume?
After Qian Bao left, Ding Wanshi thought about getting some for himself. He originally opened a spice shop and had a lot of good stuff. But after several experiments and wasting a lot of raw materials, he got nothing. A lot of money was wasted.
He has become discouraged.
Think about it, if perfume was so easy to make, wouldn't someone have already made it? How could two thousand gu a bottle come from and still be in short supply?
"Sir, the perfume is really gone, but the people are trying their best to contact customers, so I think they will still be able to buy it." Ding Wanshi could only reply in an uncertain tone.
"Can you still buy it? Okay, it couldn't be better. In this way, if there is any news, notify me as soon as possible. Again, as much as you can get, understand?" After hastily throwing down this sentence, Chen Shen After that, we started serving tea to the guests.
Ding Wanshi walked out of the government office in a daze. When he returned to the spice shop, he was frightened by the crowd of people in front of the door.
"What's going on? I've only been away for a while, why are there so many people here?"
Ding Wanshi looked puzzled, and soon the waiter ran over when he saw him and explained the whole story.
It turned out that news came from Bianliang City, saying that the nobles there all liked perfume and wanted it.
In the past, communication was poor and we could not get feedback from Bianliang City immediately. Now, the news has been uniformly transmitted back, and these people blocked the door of the spice shop in order to buy perfume as soon as possible.
"What a sin." After learning what happened, Ding Wanshi did not dare to go back to the store. He could only take a detour back to the house and began to pray wholeheartedly for Qian Bao to appear soon. Otherwise, I am afraid that this year He was going to have a hard time.
The more things you can't buy, the more you want to buy them, which makes the name of perfume even more famous. Even in Qianqizhuang, Su Shi, who was having dinner with his parents, heard Zhao Feier talking about this matter.
"Hey, I got the news late. When I went to the spice store to find out about the perfume, it was already out of stock. I don't know if there will be any more perfume for sale." At the dinner table, Faye Zhao seemed to have a look of regret.
Said like.
"It doesn't matter, I've sent people to keep an eye on the perfume shop. As soon as there is perfume for sale, I will notify you right away. There's no rush." Su Feiyang said with a doting look on his face.
The couple had a very good relationship. They had been married for almost twenty years, and they never even had a quarrel. This made Su Shi very envious.
Of course, Su Shi wanted to say more, do you want perfume? My son has plenty here.
But he couldn't, just like toothbrush, soap, facial cleanser and other items, Su Shi didn't dare to take them out. Just because he couldn't explain the origin clearly.
Lou Yang and Yue Siling can use it because they never ask themselves why. It's different here with my parents. Last time, they almost doubted themselves because of the underground treasure.
Su Shi is already preparing to go out after the New Year. At this time, he will not do anything that will make his parents worry.
Regarding the matter of leaving Qianqizhuang to go out and explore, Su Shi first said hello to his father, Su Feiyang. The other party did not refuse, but just asked where he was going. Because Su Shi had not thought about it, he only said that he had an idea.
Now that the Chinese New Year is only a little over a month away, which means the day of leaving his parents is getting closer and closer, Su Shi will spend more time with his parents.
Still sitting on the wooden chair.
Regarding whether their son could stand up, Su Feiyang and Zhao Feier both asked Zhang Miaoshou. The answer was that there should be no big problem with Su Shi's body, but he had never been off the ground in the past thirteen years, so it should be
Have a mental disorder.
Psychological diseases cannot be cured. They need to be slowly changed and adapted.
The two of them had a son after they were in their thirties. As long as Su Shi is healthy, they don't dare to force him to stand up. Anyway, Qianqi Zhuang's business is huge and they don't need their precious son to do any work, so they can do it every day.
What about on a wooden chair?
Su Shi is of course lucky to have such parents. He really doesn't want to leave unless necessary. But every time he thinks of Xingzhe and the last time Shao Yin suppressed Qian Qizhuang, he feels a strong sense of crisis hanging over him.
above their heads.
Su Shi didn't like the feeling of having his fate controlled by others.
If he says that he is just an ordinary person and can't resist, then that's it. But now, with the existence of faith value, if he continues to stay in the village, someone may take the life of his family at any time, and he still leaves to fate.
If so, then I really feel sorry for my system.
Go out, you must go out. At least take control of your own destiny first.
After eating, he returned to his room. "Ling'er, bring over the books you didn't finish yesterday."
When Su Shi was in poor health, he spent most of his time reading. Therefore, Su Feiyang found a lot of books just to let his son pass the boring time.
The ancients said that there is a golden house in a book, and there is a beautiful face in a book. This is not without some truth.
For example, this folk history records the death of the eldest son and second son of today's officials.
In the Song Dynasty, the way of speech was still very open, and there were few crimes for speech. As a result, among the people, people often talked about the private affairs of the emperor's family. Some people wrote some of the things they heard into books.
Su Shi is holding one of these books in his hand.
When I saw what was said in the book, Song Renzong's eldest son, Zhao Fang, and his second son, Zhao Xin, one lived to be three years old and the other lived for less than a day. Now the official family also has a son, Zhao Xi, who is almost three years old.
This was just an ordinary record, but in Su Shi's eyes, it made him inexplicably surprised and his eyes shone brightly.
Su Shi was a history buff in his last life and had seen such a post on the forum. It was said that Renzong reigned for forty-one years and had countless concubines, but in the end he did not even have a son and only had four daughters.
For those who survived, this was not due to poor genes, but due to the two fires in the palace, which made the newly built palace unqualified. There was strong lead poisoning in it. If a person stays there for a long time, some body functions will not be good.
Did it.
As a result, Renzong later had no heirs of his own, so he had to pass the throne to Zhao Zongshi, the son of the clan.
Speaking of Zhao Zongshi, he was deeply loved by the officials when he was young. He grew up next to Empress Cao, so Zhao Zongshi had an excellent personality, was kind-hearted, and was good at reading. However, he only stayed in the palace for six years until Lady Miao.
After giving birth to the prince Zhao Xin, Zhao Zongshi left the palace.
The post said that Zhao Zongshi was able to become emperor and became Song Yingzong later because he was very close to Empress Cao, which gave him an advantage. In fact, among Renzong's three princes, none of them was Empress Cao's biological child.
Some even say that Empress Cao killed her in order to pave the way for Zhao Zongshi.
In particular, the post said that he had specifically checked the records of the royal family. The third prince Zhao Xi only suffered from pinworm disease (roundworms in the stomach) that caused him to lose his appetite.
cause of death.
There are many posts like this, most of which are the opinions of one family. They can just extend a lot of ideas from a certain sentence in ancient books. It does not have any authenticity. But now in Su Shi's eyes, he thinks
There is much to be done.
Zhao Xi also died at the age of three, which means that this prince will probably be killed by the King of Hell in the next year. And if you can save him, then think about it, saving a prince is
What a great achievement, but doesn't it make up for the sin of killing a spy from the Secret Service?
More importantly, once things are done and Renzong is happy, once he is granted an official position, he will become a member of the scholar-bureaucrats. In that case, who will bully him?
He and his parents don't have to act so cautiously, right?
Of course, this seemingly audacious idea is absolutely unfeasible in the eyes of others. But in Su Shi's view, it is feasible to control. His mother has always been stared at because she is a descendant of Taizu.
Be careful, no one knows whether one day the emperor will take action on them to avoid future troubles.
In real history, didn’t Zhao Kuangyin’s only two sons die inexplicably?
Especially regarding Zhao Defang's death, the "History of the Song Dynasty" recorded this: "In March of the sixth year, he died of illness."
