He liked the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" very much in his previous life. Wang Zuxian's appearance was extremely stunning. Originally, Xichun's appearance was a bit like Wang Zuxian's when he was young, with picturesque features, and today's makeup, especially the bun.
It is similar to Wang Zuxian in "A Chinese Ghost Story", so it suddenly evokes Feng Ziying's memory of that era. Otherwise, it would be absolutely difficult to remember this poem that was originally mixed together.
But he never expected that when he looked at Xichun, the strikingly similar glance caused some misunderstandings between Xichun and Xing Xiuyan, and also made Xiangyun and Tanchun, who insisted on giving their speeches, also be moved, and even
Even Li Wan was in a daze.
I have to say that in this era, poetry and songs are really blocking women and they are absolutely lethal, even more powerful than Hermès or Ferrari in previous lives.
But at this moment, Feng Ziying noticed something from the sudden silence of the girls and the blurred eyes and complex expressions on their faces, and she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
The artistic conception and meaning of this poem are indeed somewhat special. If it is about Baochai, Baoqin, Yingchun, and Daiyu, it seems to be a bit showy in it, especially about Tanchun and Xiangyun. If it is not about Baochai,
Chai Bao Qin and Dai Jade welcoming the Spring Festival have a profound meaning and are undoubtedly a kind of seduction. It depends on how you understand it.
Seeing this posture, Feng Ziying felt a little happy and a little guilty. All in all, this poem seemed to hit the mark. It was a pun, and everyone can understand it by themselves. He could pretend to be crazy and act stupid without explaining.
After this poem, the whole atmosphere seems to have changed. Sisters Baochai and Baoqin are thoughtful, but Daiyu and Yingchun have blurred eyes. As for Tanchun, Xiangyun hangs his head in silence, while Xichun and Xiu
Yan and even Li Wan and the other girls were confused and flustered. All in all, when Feng Ziying realized this, she realized that she had to leave quickly, otherwise the situation would become even more embarrassing and stagnant.
For many people, it is a difficult night.
Once a person has something on his mind or has some thoughts, his mental state will not be different. Whether it is expectations, doubts, worries, or fears, people can no longer be a bystander.
And becoming a participant, this kind of mentality transformation is very important.
Feng Ziying didn't know that the seed he sowed unintentionally would affect countless people's hearts. If he really knew, well, he would do so without hesitation.
Having fun alone is not as good as having fun with everyone. It is really good to be good to everyone.
As for scumbags, they don’t exist in this era. They like the new but never get tired of the old. In this era, they are a responsible and noble quality worthy of praise.
*********
Emperor Yonglong met Zhang Jingqiu in the East Study.
Seeing the calm but tired Emperor Yonglong, Zhang Jingqiu was filled with emotions.
Eight years ago, I was promoted from Nanjing and returned to Beijing. The emperor was still in high spirits and had great ambitions. However, eight years later, the emperor's health became worse and worse. He was no longer in the same state as he was eight years ago. I heard that on the contrary,
It is the Supreme Emperor who nourishes his mind and body every day, and although he is nearly eighty years old, he is in good health. There is also Prince Yi Zhong, who is three or four years older than his emperor, but is still very energetic and energetic.
"emperor."
"Well, Zhang Qing, I haven't seen Zhang Qing for a long time. Is the Jingtong Ercang case almost over?" Emperor Yonglong actually didn't really want Zhang Jingqiu to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but in that round of personnel changes, Zhang Jingqiu had to make the final decision.
You can only go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
The Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Husbandry, and the Ministry of Justice were all controlled by Jiangnan scholars. Even Qi Yongtai, who had always been strong, was unable to confront Ye Fang and Li. In the end, they only managed to win the positions of Minister of War and Ministry of Industry for northern scholars.
The Huguang scholars were given a newly-established position as Minister of the Ministry of Commerce. Except for Gu Bingqian who had secured the position of Minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, they could only let Zhang Jingqiu go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Otherwise, they could only let Zhang Jingqiu go to the Ministry of Commerce to exchange with Guan Yingzhen.
, for myself, it is not suitable.
"That's almost it. All the criminals have basically arrived at the case and have confessed. There are still some follow-up closing matters for the remaining searches, which are expected to be basically completed by the end of October." Zhang Jingqiu is not too interested in the Jingtong Second Warehouse case.
, but Qiao Yingjia was very interested, and Liu Yisui, the Minister of Punishment, was also a new official and wanted to make some political achievements, so these two cases were handled like lightning and were quickly brought to justice.
This is all secondary. The key is that the auction method pioneered by this kid Feng Ziying has made a big splash, and the proceeds have been beyond imagination. Not to mention that he even took his father to the northwest to pick up a lot of bargains.
But Hubu Huang Ruliang was actually willing to do so.
"How much money can I expect to sell in the future?" After Emperor Yonglong asked this question, he shook his head subconsciously and laughed, "I have almost become a miser now, and I am obsessed with money."
"It is a blessing for the country that the emperor can care about the revenue of the treasury. What's wrong with that?" Zhang Jingqiu replied, "It is estimated that there will be another three to five million taels of silver income. Feng Keng told the minister that it was just that amount. After all, in the early stage
Everything that can be sold is basically sold when the time is right.”
"Well, it's not bad. At least it can help the Jingying side to have some peace of mind. Huang Ruliang complains to me all day about how poor he is, so he just stares at the little money in my inner treasury and Jieshen treasury that is at the bottom of the box.
, I don’t understand why our ministers of household affairs don’t think about how to increase the treasury income, but they stare at me all day long? Could it be that the great Zhou Dynasty can’t find a solution to the current lack of financial resources?
A subject?"
There was already a bit of anger in Emperor Yonglong's words.
Originally, he was not in good health during this period. Every time he went to court or discussed matters in the East Study, various problems would arise, and he would argue frequently. He might not be able to calm down for an hour or two, which made Emperor Yonglong exhausted. This was also
Emperor Yonglong felt more and more that it was time to go to Tiewang Mountain to recuperate.
Zhang Jingqiu remained silent, and after a long time he said with emotion: "Your Majesty, when it comes to this point, I have to admit that Feng Keng has extraordinary abilities in this area. As far as I know, this summer harvest, although Yongping Mansion is in
There is not much increase in Xia tax, but the commercial tax has increased six times compared to the first half of last year. I wonder if Mr. Cui has reported it to the emperor?"
"Yongping Mansion?" Emperor Yonglong was startled, "Cui Qing only said that the income of Jieshen Treasury has increased significantly compared with last year, but he did not mention which specific mansion or how much the increase was. From what you said, Zhang Qing, this
Is there anything unusual about Yongping Mansion? Is it because Feng Keng laid the foundation last year?"
"Well, Yongping Mansion has not only digested the nearly 100,000 refugees who passed through Shuntian Mansion last year, but even some Mongolian refugees from the grasslands who caused the White Disaster last year have also entered Yongping Mansion to seek food. It is estimated that the number will not exceed 100,000.
There will be less than ten thousand people, which is very rare." Zhang Jingqiu said calmly: "In the past, the government would have driven these people out, but this year there was no movement in Yongping Prefecture. The reason is that Yongping Prefecture has established many new charcoal factories.
, cement plants and ironwork workshops have a great demand for population, and with the opening of Yuguan port, Jiangnan materials will be directly shipped ashore from Yuguan to Liaodong and Mongolia. The Ministry of Commerce is preparing to set up a branch of the Municipal Shipping Department in Yuguan. Several original officials have
It’s no longer enough.”
Emperor Yonglong stroked his beard and said nothing.
He has also heard about this situation. Yongping Mansion has now become the most important place for merchants from Shanxi and Shaanxi. Iron smelting, iron making, coal making, coking, and the addition of new gadgets, cement, have completely changed the situation in Yongping Mansion.
Originally it was just a strategic location in Jingdong, and could only be self-sufficient in food, but now it has become short of food. However, iron materials, ironware and cement are shipped out in large quantities, and food needs to be imported from Jiangnan and even Guangdong.
With the opening of Yuguan Port, the Ministry of Commerce also mentioned that the tariffs at Yuguan increased sharply, almost every month. Before, Emperor Yonglong thought that Guan Yingzhen might be bragging about his students Feng Ziying and Lian Guo, but now
It seems that the situation may be much better than imagined.
Commercial taxes, tariffs, Emperor Yonglong muttered. He remembered Feng Ziying vaguely saying that when the industrial and commercial taxes and tariffs in a place exceed the Xia Qiutian tax, the changes it brings are unparalleled. He doesn't quite understand the significance of this, but
It still seems that Yongping Mansion is becoming what Feng Ziying herself said is a experimental field.
"Zhang Qing, I remember Feng Keng also said that he introduced some Western Yi seeds from Xu Guangqi, and they are found in Yongping Mansion and Shuntian Mansion?" Emperor Yonglong asked.
Zhang Jingqiu's failure to enter the cabinet was the greatest regret for Emperor Yonglong.
Fortunately, Zhang Jingqiu should be appointed as the censor of Zuodu, which also allows the other party to escape from the complicated affairs of the Ministry of War, and can help him observe and understand the affairs of the court from a broader perspective. After all, the Metropolitan Procuratorate can supervise any ministers and related affairs.
In Emperor Yonglong's mind, he was an alternate cabinet minister, and he would give Zhang Jingqiu the status of a bachelor no matter what.
"I have also learned about this matter. Yongping Mansion is mainly located in the line from Kaiping Central Tunnel to Zhenzi Town and the Santun Camp in the north. There are many wastelands in this line, and most of them are the original garrison areas. We have communicated with the Ministry of War to practice state affairs.
, Ji Town was also very supportive, and they reached a cooperation and planted a batch of potatoes and sweet potatoes. It is said that the yield is very high, but there are still many problems in taste and preservation. However, for now, it is still very cost-effective to supply it to the refugees.
of."
Zhang Jingqiu has obviously put a lot of effort into it. "Although its yield varies depending on feedback from various places, the yield per mu is six to seven times that of wheat, and it is three to five times that of wheat. It depends on the soil quality and the situation. Whether it is
This applies to potatoes and sweet potatoes."
"Oh?" Emperor Yonglong looked shocked, "So high? Do you have any special requirements for the land?"
"It's not too special. If you can grow wheat, you can basically grow these two types of crops. Even if it's a little barren, you can make do." Zhang Jingqiu replied.
