Chapter 938: Please give me an idea (monthly ticket)
Ninth Prince's Mansion, Shangfang.
The ninth elder brother was telling Shu Shu about the third elder brother's fall into the trap, and said: "This person really can't be too bad. He has bad intentions and his luck is bad. You said that the third elder brother is so unlucky. I'll be sorry later."
There is one more thing to keep in mind!”
Shu Shu was also surprised and said: "This... isn't the third elder brother famous for his literary talent? He also had an errand in the Ministry of Rites before?"
Brother Jiu hummed, "Why else? Greed. In the Ministry of Rites, you are greedy for fame. When you come to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you are greedy for money. Compared with fame, money is naturally more attractive to others..."
Having said this, he shook his head and said: "It's really a death wish. At other times, Khan Ama wouldn't care about him. At this time, he was planning to deal with people. It's hard to say that he really wanted to 'kill the monkey and scare the chicken'."
Shu Shu felt that the third elder brother may not be as courageous and greedy as he might be just making trouble in a small way.
Brother Ninth Brother saw her disapproval and said: "He is not greedy. Some people are trying to force him to be greedy. Everyone in the Ma family left before. This time Brother Three will come forward and he will definitely stick to it."
Shu Shu said: "Since the emperor wants to clean up the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he should be well aware of it. However, the tenth brother is implicated this time. The censor may have to take note of it."
Brother Jiu said: "If someone really stares at Lao Shi and bites him later, I will ask someone to say hello."
Shu Shu felt relieved after hearing this.
If a Han censor is upright and upright, and a gentleman may do something or not, he may not yield to the power of the prince's elder brother, but the Manchu censor is different.
If you go around and around, you can find a connection, just ask someone to go over and talk...

The entrance of Qianqing Palace.
When several imperial censors from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came out, they all looked grave.
In the eyes of the guards and guards, there was a lot of speculation.
Is this a complaint?
I'm afraid it won't be of much use.
The prince's elder brother who had been ennobled by other princes could still have his salary suspended and demoted, but the tenth prince has not yet been ennobled, so he cannot be demoted or stopped.
Qianqing Palace, Xinuang Pavilion.
Kangxi thought for a while, looked at Prince Jian and said: "It is extremely rude for the emperor's tenth son to whip the censor. The clan will discuss it and demote him to a first-class title for his serious offense."
Prince Jian was stunned.
When was it discussed?
That old boy Sunu, bypassed him and gave the emperor a discount directly?
Kangxi said: "The clan government has come up with this report."
Only then did Prince Jian realize that it was a misunderstanding and there was no discussion.
He hurriedly bowed and said: "嗻!"
When he left the Qianqing Palace, Prince Jian's waist was straight and there was no resentment at all about taking the blame.
Taking the blame for the emperor, is that still called taking the blame?
As for the tenth prince, Prince Jian is not worried about offending him.
The tenth elder brother has also been in the clan mansion for three years, so he is a worry-free person.
Even if you don't worry, there is nothing you can do.
The Prince's Mansion of the Tenth Prince was built according to the wishes of a county prince, and now it has been carried on his body. The first rank is Baylor.
Even if the emperor gives more "grace" and still makes the county king, he will still be inferior to the hereditary and irreplaceable prince...

In Yuqing Palace, study room.
The prince felt a little gloomy after hearing the news from outside.
The third elder brother is different from the ninth elder brother. He is ranked first, and he is both civil and military. He is one of the most valued sons of the emperor's father.
Concubine Rong...
She seems to be the last of the four concubines, but in the end she is the first concubine in the harem, and she has been in the palace for a long time, and grew up with the emperor's father, so the relationship is different.
The third elder brother has always been close to him, but the prince does not appreciate this kind of closeness.
Now, he has to think about his relationship with his third elder brother.
He called the eunuch in charge of Yuqing Palace and said, "Dragon Boat Festival, what did Sanbeile Mansion send you?"
The eunuch in charge thought for a while and said, "Zongzi, realgar wine, tea, and fans..."
"Where is the Ninth Prince's Mansion?" the prince asked again.
"It's the same four things, rice dumplings, roast chicken, tea, sachets..." said the eunuch in charge.
They are all four, they look almost the same.
The fan is suitable for the occasion, but in terms of spices, the spices are more expensive.
"How did the Crown Princess return the favor?" the Crown Prince asked.
"The prince's palace outside the palace, except for the Zhijun Prince's Palace, all have four kinds of return gifts, rice dumplings, daughter's tea, palace fans, and sachets; the Zhijun Prince's Palace adds two more items, four pieces of Taixi yarn, four strings of eighteen agate seeds...
"The eunuch in charge said.
The prince couldn't help but frown after hearing this.
Although he understood that these extra things were for a few little princesses who had lost their mothers, he still felt uncomfortable.
Who doesn't know that these young bosses are tit for tat with him?
The Crown Princess acted like this, as if Yuqing Palace was afraid of the boss, so she bowed her head first.
However, in the eyes of the elders in the palace, they all felt that the Crown Princess had done the right thing.
The prince couldn't help but feel blocked.
He also hopes that the couple will be in harmony with each other, but the Crown Princess is a person who has her own ideas and does not act according to his preferences.
She just looks gentle. She is round on the outside and square on the inside. She is not as virtuous as her elders see...
*
It was said that only well-informed people got the news that day, and they still half believed it. The next day, the third elder brother went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs in full view of everyone. Everyone knew that the rumor was true, and that the third elder brother was really the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Ninth Prince's Mansion, Shangfang.
A visitor has arrived.
The Seven Fortunes are here.
"My man is a quiet man who keeps his mouth shut. I can't ask any questions. I'm really worried, so I came over by myself..."
Qi Fujin said quickly: "Okay, why are you being targeted by the censor? Whose descendant does not understand the rules so much?"
Shu Shu took her hand and welcomed her into the house, saying: "It's no big deal. The emperor used our father to make a raft to show his authority to the imperial censor. It happens to be hot, and our father is eager to rest."
Seeing Shu Shu's behavior, Qifu Jin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's so lively outside, even the brothers are talking about the feud. I'm still worried that you won't go to the garden?"
Qi Fujin also wanted to follow and said, "When the time comes, let's play leaf cards with the concubines."
Shu Shu thought about the mental stress of playing cards, thanked her, and said: "I can't sit still. When the time comes, you can ask the third sister-in-law to make up the number..."
Qi Fujin glanced at her and said in confusion: "You are generous and don't hold grudges?"
Shu Shu smiled and said: "If the third master robs our master's title or something, I still have a reason to hold a grudge. This job doesn't mean that it belongs to whoever it is. How can there be such a reason? It's other brothers.
, and it didn’t say that he was dominating any Que’er, wouldn’t the six divisions also come in turn?”
Qi Fujin snorted softly and said, "It can be seen that life is going smoothly and people are becoming more generous."
Shu Shu smiled and said: "The little ones in my family are very clingy and look for someone every day. Now that our father is at home, I really can't wait to..."
Speaking of this, she thought of Qi Fujin's San Gege, who was born on April 26 last year and turned 26 this April, but there was no wine.
"I haven't gone out for the past six months. How is my niece doing now?" she asked with concern.
Qi Fujin lowered his voice and said: "I changed two nannies, they are all used to pick up the ones that were just born. I don't know if the three grids are too big, but they are still useful. They look better than before, so I thought about giving her a supplement first."
"As for whether you are slow to learn to walk or speak slowly, don't worry, just don't let your body suffer."
Shu Shu was very unfamiliar with this kind of parenting knowledge, so she just said: "Ask the imperial doctor for everything, it's not easy to learn on your own."
Qi Fujin nodded and said: "I don't mind, our father has invited all the good doctors in the capital this year, even foreign doctors..."
Speaking of this, she hesitated for a moment and said: "There is something I want to shamelessly ask you for help with an idea..."
Shu Shu hurriedly said: "If you have something to do, just give me your orders. They grew up like little sisters, and now they are brothers-in-law. These are heretics."
Qi Fujin sighed and said: "Sangege is like this. I don't know where she will go in the future. I have to stay with her to rest assured. I just want to save more dowry for her."
Her dowry was less than that of her parents-in-law, but more than that of her husband.
She had never cared about it before, but when she saw that Shushu's silver shop, restaurant, and pastry shop were prospering, and Shifujin's foreign goods shop was also making a lot of money, she became tempted.
"Several dowry shops were used to save worries. Except for the silk and satin shop and the rice shop, the others were rented out and the rent was collected directly. After a year, there was not much money..."
Shu Shu thought about it carefully and decided that if she wanted to make steady profits, she would invest in things with small risks and low risks, such as food and clothing.
But there is nothing new in the restaurant and pastry shop. The business with her is serious, and with Qi Fujin's temper, she will not do it even if she proposes it.
Shu Shu thought of the banner people's customs, love of dignity, eating and wearing in season.
But even if the Eight Banners are hardcore farmers, not every family is a noble, most of them are ordinary people.
Shu Shu asked, "How many other shops do Sister-in-law Qi have idle at?"
Qifu Jin said: "There are three more places. Land in the capital is hard to buy, and we don't have many father-in-laws. The dowry industry here is just a village with five shops and two small yards."
Shu Shu was not in a hurry to speak, but looked at the tea tray.
The tea cups in the tea tray come in a set of six. Now each of my husband and I use one, and there are four left.
Shu Shu took out one and said: "Banner people love dignity, but the new clothes of the season are not easy to wear. To buy materials, you have to find needleworkers. Qisao has a ready-made silk and satin shop, and the population of the mansion is huge.
If there are more, you can directly add a ready-made clothing store to sell new clothes before the season changes. It doesn’t use too good materials, the price is moderate, only the styles are fashionable, and you can also undertake customization..."
At this point, she picked up the second tea cup and said: "Some people don't like to wear old clothes, or it's out of season and they want to buy new clothes and don't have enough money on hand. Then Sister-in-law Seven, you can get a small shop and open a shop."
A clothing store can also make a small income by collecting and selling these old clothes..."
Then she picked up the third tea cup and said: "In addition to those clothes for daily use, there are also some formal clothes and large clothes that are not worn once in eight hundred years and are expensive. Ordinary people are reluctant to buy them, but they are still expensive for weddings and funerals."
When you need something to wear, you can convert the remaining shop into a clothing store, make some expensive clothes, put them away, and rent them out..."
"It's just a small amount of money, but both men and women in the banner family love to save face. Once these three shops are opened, business will not be bad..."
"The key is that there is a silk and satin shop for fabrics, and there are people from Fuzhong who are sewing and threading people, so it is easy to get started..."
Qi Fujin held Shu Shu's hand and was speechless for a long time.
This sounds like a way to make money.
Shu Shu herself has no shortage of money and can do whatever she wants.
Qi Fujin shook his head and said: "No, I can't take advantage of you like this. Let's forget about it. If you have everything in mind, just take care of it yourself."
Shu Shu shook her head and said: "I just thought of it, it's a bit crude. If you want to make money, you need to perfect it. Anyway, this idea was for Sister Seven. If you don't use it, I won't use it. A while ago, Master Jiu and I talked about it.
I said, we won’t build new shops anymore. The decorations are too big and don’t look like people. They are not merchants after all. We just need enough money..."
