Chapter Seventy-Three: The Same Root But Different

Just after the end of the day, the sunlight sprinkled on the golden curtain hook of the car curtain, reflecting the golden light, "Madam, you are awake." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Aunt Chen hurriedly turned sideways slightly to help the Queen Mother up, and after the Queen Mother left the palace, everyone called her Mrs. Huang. The Queen Mother frowned, "There are still a few days to arrive." Aunt Chen lifted the curtain a little and asked the driver outside.

"Yes, there are still some days, ma'am, and the road is long.... Do you feel unwell? The Queen Mother rubbed her shoulders, "I'm old, I used to go out of the palace like this, where would I feel unwell." "Yes, when she was young, she used to sneak out, and when she rode a horse, she only felt refreshed, and she was sore when she was sitting in a carriage now.

"I'm fine. She shook her head.

"Your Majesty has sent a letter. Hearing this, the queen mother sighed, it has been two days, and the emperor found out that his mother was gone, and she didn't know whether to be relieved or sad, and she was glad that the emperor was concerned about the suffering of the people these days, and she was sad that even her mother had time to ask.

"Said something. Aunt Chen carefully took out the letter, "Mother.. See for yourself, ma'am. The letter was sealed with beeswax, smooth and clean, and the Queen Mother glanced at Aunt Chen and opened the letter.

This kid... A smile appeared between her eyebrows, "Said that the mourning family should be careful, saying that the mourning family did not go to Fujian in Jiangnan, and asked the mourning family to find the Taifu together if they really want to go to Fujian, and said that they had already repaired the book to the Taifu side, and knew that the mourning family was out of the palace." ”

Aunt Chen glanced up at the Queen Mother, "Presumably, the emperor is very worried about you." "Yes, every sentence in the letter can't bear to reprimand her, so she arranged for her to go to Jiangnan to find the Taifu first, she is not willful, but when she thinks of being far away in the palace, those dog slaves have honey on their mouths, and when this kind of big thing happens, the emperor can't go because he is under too much pressure, so she, the mother, can go, and return everything she sees, hears, and feels back to the palace to tell the emperor.

"How long does it take to get to Gangnam. "Aunt Chen's hometown is Jiangnan, so she is very familiar with it, "Mrs. Hui, if you go to Jiangnan, you will arrive tomorrow." The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief, "Then go to Jiangnan first." ”

Lin Family... For the emperor, it is a very special family, not only supported the eighth prince who had no power at that time, but also sent the best Lin Qingmu of his family to the emperor, so probably the wealth of the Lin family is also acquiesced by the emperor....

.......

An Lingluo got up, after freshening up, took Qinglian and a few people to Mrs. Xue's side to ask for peace, and after breakfast, he went to the stone courtyard where Xue Chengxin was.

The courtyard is green and shady, and the birds are chirping. When the subordinates of the Stone Courtyard saw An Lingluo coming, they hurriedly stopped their respective affairs and saluted An Lingluo. An Lingluo nodded slightly and walked into the courtyard.

Xue Chengxin was instructing Jiang Shi to take his coat and prepare to go out to the old lady, when he saw An Lingluo coming, he bowed his head slightly, and motioned for An Lingluo to go to the study, since he had something to discuss, then he would listen to what his niece wanted to say to him, so as to change his mind.

After An Lingluo saluted Jiang Shi, he followed Xue Chengxin to the study.

Xue Chengxin's face was serious, and An Lingluo bowed and saluted, "Second uncle." He stood up and said, "Second Uncle wants to ask about the grain collection and the tea, right?"

Xue Chengxin always felt that An Lingluo was still the little girl with a pure smile in his memory, and he wanted to count her down with a sigh of relief, but looking at An Lingluo Tingting standing in front of him, he suddenly wanted to say those ugly words, but he couldn't say a word.

"Lingluo, I know that you came from Donghua City to see your grandmother, and I know that your mother probably ordered you to discuss things with your grandmother. But the matter between business, even your mother has not been involved, you are so nonsense, don't you bring the entire Xue family with you?" Xue Chengxin tried his best to talk to her in a consultative tone, An Lingluo smiled and did not answer

"Ling Luo just came on the way, met Jiajia's sister, asked her why she went, she said that she wanted to go to Mengze Lake with her good friend to write poems and paint, Jiajia's sister is innocent, really likable. An Lingluo smiled calmly.

I don't know if An Lingluo is agreeable, obviously he has made it clear enough, so it's useless to bypass the topic like this. Xue Chengxin was a little impatient, "Lingluo, my uncle is talking to you about business." “

An Lingluo said quietly, "Second uncle, Lingluo understands. It's just that what Ling Luo wants to explain is that the reason why Jiajia's sister is innocent is because she has no worries, she doesn't have to worry about not eating well and sleeping warmly, because she grew up in the Xue family, she doesn't need to have these worries, right?"

Xue Chengxin couldn't figure out what An Lingluo wanted to express, so he had to continue to listen to her, after all, he always smiled in front of people, although he didn't want to laugh so much inside, probably because he was used to doing business all year round.

"The Xue family is entrenched in Jiangnan, the wealth of Jiangnan businessmen is known to the world, second uncle, my father died, the wealth of the Xue family has lost its protection, and now we should still care about how much money we can make, or should we keep this wealth?"

An Lingluo's words, Xue Chengxin was not stupid, and he understood, he said, "Lingluo, you think too much, the Xue family is not rich for a day or two, there are always people eyeing it, but the Xue family is not a bird with broken wings, so many years, at least in Xin'an City, everyone still has to sell the Xue family's thin noodles, besides, what do these things have to do with your collection of grain, isn't it good for the Xue family to be an imperial businessman, isn't it under the protection of the emperor to be an imperial businessman." "If you don't cherish a great opportunity, you are a fool if you don't ask for such a huge benefit.

An Lingluo sighed, "Second uncle, do you know, not to mention Donghua City, the tea merchants in the major tea producing areas have a certain foundation, and there is an indescribable relationship with the household department, not that if you make good tea, you can become an imperial businessman, after all, His Majesty the Emperor will only drink tea last, and those layers of relationships in the middle determine whether your tea can reach the emperor's mouth." Besides, Lingluo has tasted many teas in Donghua, Yuhang tea, and there are still teas of the same quality. ”

No matter what An Lingluo said, Xue Chengxin was always reluctant to believe it, if these words were said from the mouth of an older person with a higher status, he would definitely shake his thoughts, but when it came out of his niece's mouth, he really didn't want to believe it.

"Then why do you want someone to collect grain, now every family has enough food, and even if they receive it, they can't sell it. ”

An Lingluo showed a mysterious smile, "Second uncle, although the people in Jiangnan have enough rice and grain, then, what about the people in the affected areas, their food must not be enough to eat, maybe some people have gold and silver piled up, but they can't exchange it for a grain of rice, not to mention, the disaster has just begun, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Xue Chengxin was taken aback, "Lingluo, you are..."This is a fortune that is going to make a national disaster, Xue Cheng felt inappropriate in his confidence, but when he thought that if the food arrived in the disaster area, then it would become a large amount of gold and silver back, he was a little shaken, if he took the opportunity to make a fortune, someone would definitely point at their nose and scold, but he was a businessman, and he never cheated people on weekdays, and there were always people talking behind his back, so why not make money openly.

Whether it is the money of the big house or the money of the second room, it is the money of the Xue family, after all, it is not separated yet, and he doesn't want to calculate it so clearly, because he understands his eldest brother, although he is indecisive, but people are sometimes too upright, and Ling Luo must not have told him directly, otherwise he would definitely not agree.

"Although it's a little girl, Suzuro also has a good brain. Xue Chengxin smiled and praised, forget it, the imperial merchant originally didn't think that the Xue family could be selected when the eldest brother proposed it, but now he will only question it when he hears unbelievable news, if there is a large amount of interests in front of him, then the person who doesn't make money is a fool, isn't it?

An Lingluo also replied with a smile, she didn't want people to think that businessmen were like this, but everyone had to think like this, so let's do it for the time being... After all, he can still bear this grievance.

Convincing Xue Chengxin is also part of her plan, after all, the effect she wants has just begun...
