The people in the commercial bank have received the news a long time ago, and people from the government office will come over today, and everyone will show their special skills.
Gu Yu followed King Xiaoyao and saw at a glance the two shopkeepers of Linlang Pavilion and Nishangfang. They were both smart people and they pretended not to know him when they saw him.
The one hundred thousand taels, two hundred thousand taels, and five hundred thousand taels she said in the government office were restrained. After the news of the official investment promotion actually reached the trading houses, it was like an antelope falling to the wolves, and every merchant was watching eagerly.
Get some meat.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for merchants. Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, merchants have always been suppressed from below. If the scholar class can help them promote it, their status will be greatly improved.
Junze Da Ma sat in the business office with his head straight, and the shopkeeper of Mingxiangzhai brought tea with great foresight.
"Your Majesty, this is the Ever Spring Silver Leaf, produced in Jiannan. The tea soup is like nectar, fragrant and refreshing, and tastes mellow and sweet. It is best to use it to moisturize the students' mouths when talking."
Seeing the shopkeeper of Mingxiangzhai coming up, the other shopkeepers were not to be outdone and surrounded Junze.
Junze looked through the dark heads and saw Gu Yu sitting alone in the lower seat, undisturbed, taking a sip of tea and a bite of cake. He felt very uncomfortable and said:
"My fellow shopkeepers, I only go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to supervise the investment promotion. The person next to me who can really decide the list is Prince Gu next to me."
Gu Yu still had a mouthful of cake in her mouth. When she saw everyone looking at her, she hurriedly swallowed it. Among the shopkeepers, Linlang Pavilion and Nishangfang were being squeezed so hard that their faces turned green.
She took a sip of tea to clear her mouth. Since King Xiaoyao wanted to be lazy and leave the choice to her, don't blame her for being partial.
Seeing the shopkeepers crowding in front of her, she hurriedly said:
"Everyone, shopkeepers, please be patient. Let's do this. Everyone first sorts the food, clothing, four treasures of the study, etc. that you want to sponsor, and arranges them into a book from top to bottom according to the number of strokes in their names. Then give it to me. The prince and I will follow the order.
Call everyone in one by one."
After hearing what Gu Yu said, everyone got together to write a list.
"Shizi Gu is good at what he does." Junze found that Gu Yu was very organized in everything he did and could often get twice the result with half the effort.
"Your Majesty's excessive praise is just for the convenience of others and yourself. I will bother you and I to think about it later," Gu Yu said.
After a while, the people from the trading company handed over the roster.
Gu Yu called people one by one and asked them to introduce their store information and the funds or goods they could donate to the symposium. Even though Gu Yu was prepared, he was still shocked by their enthusiasm. They all spent their money and came here, vowing to
To be a blockbuster.
It's not that whichever merchant has the highest investment will be used. Gu Yu has his own considerations.
Most of the people who come to Beijing are poor scholars, and the things given to them are too shabby, and they lose the dignity of a saint, and they are too expensive, which can easily make the poor scholars unbalanced.
She was writing furiously on the side, recording the information reported by each merchant one by one. King Xiaoyao became a mascot, sitting on the seat with his legs crossed and watching her busy.
Whenever she asked: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
He said a few perfunctory words: "I am only supervising the affairs. It is better to leave the specific matters to the officials to decide."
Gu Yu couldn't figure out this person. Why did the Holy Spirit ask him to supervise the matter? Now that he was here, why did he act like he was careless about the matter?
Although Linlang Pavilion and Nichangfang are both properties under her control, they are also secretly competing on this matter. The two shops jointly bid for the emblem of the student's shirt.
King Xiaoyao, who had always been with the old god, suddenly said after the shopkeeper of Linlang Pavilion left: "Why are the jewelry sellers here to join in the fun?"
Gu Yu was secretly vigilant, wondering if his sudden question meant he had seen something.
"The Talking Conference is valued by the Holy One, and all walks of life want to get a share of it. This is not surprising. Linlang Pavilion has contributed a lot of money this time, and can also provide cotton quilts, so it is more sincere."
Junze turned the jade ring on his hand: "Shizi Gu seems to be paying special attention to Linlang Pavilion. When the shopkeeper of Linlang Pavilion came in just now, Gu Shizi asked more detailed questions than other shops."
Gu Yu knew that this man had a sharp gaze and that he could not hide his little tricks from him, so he said: "It's just that my sister prefers Linlang Pavilion's jewelry. If it is suitable, I would like to be a favor."
Junze smiled: "It's a pity that there are specialties in the arts. Linlang Pavilion is good at jewelry, but in terms of clothing and cloth, it is probably not as good as Nishangfang, Yuyi Bureau, and Jinxiu Pavilion."
Gu Yu lowered her head, curled her lips and smiled, knowing in her heart that you would interfere with it. Nishangfang and Yuyi Bureau also belong to her, and Jinxiu Pavilion is not worth mentioning.
"Since it is the prince's kiss, I humbly record Nishangfang, Yuyi Bureau and Jinxiu Pavilion."
Junze could hear the slight pleasure in her words and smiled knowingly, "This Gu Yu is a bit interesting."
After meeting all the merchants, Gu Yu was very tired and handed the compiled booklet to King Xiaoyao. He didn't even look at it and said: "Young Master Gu has done well, I, the king, can rest assured. Let's go."
Gu Yu turned her wrist and followed King Xiaoyao out of the business amidst the compliments of the shopkeepers.
Kyoto's trading houses are located in the west of the city. This is the place where ordinary people in Kyoto come most often. They gather in Goulanwashe. When they walked out, a theater troupe was performing a play lively. The audience was overcrowded and shouted from time to time.
Say hello.
King Xiaoyao stopped and said, "If you have nothing important to do later, Prince Gu, please follow me to observe the sentiments of the people."
The stage in Vasili was very simple, but the theatergoers still stared at it intently.
As soon as Gu Yu and Junze came in, the waiter at Wase saw that they were both rich and noble, so he enthusiastically gave them a front seat and served them melon and fruit tea.
Junze asked: "What is this performance?"
The waiter replied: "This play is called "Mandarin Duck's Dream". It tells the story of a wealthy family in Zhezhou in the past dynasty. There was a young lady named Cuiniang in the family. She was very beautiful. She had an affair with her cousin Du in the family early on.
Yinglang made a marriage contract, but Cuiniang was spotted by the emperor who was visiting privately in disguise during a trip, and he called her into the palace and made her the empress."
"The two lovers were separated by a palace wall and never saw each other again. My cousin Du Yinglang was heartbroken over this and drank heavily every day."
"The play we are performing now is called "The Infatuated Man Gets Drunk and Robs a White Jade Bracelet". After getting drunk again, Du Yinglang fell in love with a white jade bracelet on the street. His cousin had a similar white jade bracelet, and Du Yinglang thought
Buy it and think about the people you see."
"It's just that he was short of money and was bought by a rich man at a high price. He was drunk. When he saw that the jade bracelet was being bought, he overestimated his ability and tried to grab it. The jade bracelet fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces. Du Yinglang was killed.
The rich man got beaten up."
After hearing this, Junze waved his hand and rewarded the waiter with a silver ingot, then turned to Gu Yu and said, "What do you think of this play, Prince Gu?"
Gu Yu replied with a smile: "I don't watch plays very much, I don't understand plays, I can't judge whether it's good or bad."
Junze turned to look at the stage, which was bustling with activity.
"A play is like life, and life is like a play. Then Prince Gu should appreciate this play carefully."
Gu Yu had a smile on her lips and looked at the stage with cold eyes.
