Chapter 37: I see

After the crown prince became married, he moved out of the palace and lived in his own mansion. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info he is a collection of thousands of favors, since he was a child, he has been made a prince, has a strong backing, so he never has to live in the camp.

The prince's life is very regular, every day with the emperor's father to the morning court, and then go to the imperial study to discuss state affairs, and then go to see his queen's mother, and then he may have dinner with someone who has a good relationship with him, or he may be left to eat in the palace. Usually in the afternoon, it is his free time, he can read a book at home, take a nap, occasionally accompany his wife and concubine, or go out for a walk.

Dongfang Xu is one of the prince's few friends and cousins, so there are still many opportunities to meet.

"Your Highness. Dongfang Xu came after the prince woke up, looking at the prince's somewhat lazy appearance, he smiled and said, "What arrangements does Your Highness have today, do you want to go to the suburbs to ride horses together?"

The prince waved his hand, "It's only May, and the weather is so hot, I'm really too lazy to move around." ”

"Are you afraid of the heat?" Dongfang Xu nodded, "That's a coincidence, someone just begged me to come and wanted the prince to be a backer to do the business of summer melons." I asked people to bring two of them, Your Highness might as well eat a piece to dissipate the heat. ”

The prince was overjoyed when he heard this, "At this time, there will be a summer melon? ”

"The number of summer melons is not much, only four or five hundred catties, and at this time, you can make a lot of money by living in strange goods. He was afraid that someone would be jealous at that time, so he wanted to come up with some parts......"

"His Royal Highness doesn't look down on this little money. The prince waved his hand, is he short of money? "Let him give it to the master...... A hundred catties of summer melon should be regarded as the master's part. ”

Dongfang Xu likes such a tsundere prince, is a hundred catties of summer melons more? In fact, it is just ten big melons. But then again, the prince really doesn't have any common sense. He said that there were only four or five hundred catties, and ten catties of summer melons were only forty or fifty. His Highness's mouth is one-fifth......

The summer melon had been in the well water for a long time, and the people did not hesitate to get the melon, so they directly cut it into suitable pieces and presented it on a white jade plate.

The prince took the handkerchief handed by the eunuch and cleaned his hands, then picked up the summer melon and ate it. Immediately smiled, "Okay! This melon came just in time! Ah Xu, let someone send the reward to the merchant in a moment! and bring back the rest of the melons." ”

Although the prince is a little arrogant, he is not stupid, such a good thing must be used in a good place. As soon as Xia Gua arrived, he really threw Dongfang Xu off and rode to the palace, and went straight to the emperor's heart cultivation hall.

And this summer melon really won the dragon's heart, and the benefits obtained were naturally not comparable to Ruan Jingxin.

However, Ruan Jingxin also quickly heard the effect caused by the summer melon. At the beginning, the summer melons in Yunguilou were not sold, and only one person and one corner were given after spending a hundred taels. But the result is that everyone is eager to do it.

What is the most important thing in the capital? Rich people! What the uncles buy is not melons, but face! Therefore, even if the summer melons are finally sold by the corner, they are still very popular.

Ruan Jingxin finally got two thousand taels of silver tickets, which was only half of hers. In other words, more than 2,000 catties of watermelons were sold for 4,000 taels of silver! Even she had to admire Dongfang Xu's methods.

Two thousand taels, with this money as start-up capital, she has a lot of things to do. All the private money before, plus some jewelry pawns, was enough money to buy Zhuangzi. Now it's finally time to breathe.

You must know that in a big family like the Marquis of Yichuan, the monthly silver of the young lady is only twenty taels of silver, and the concubine is only ten taels. The lord's monthly silver is only one hundred taels, the wife is only sixty taels, and the aunt is only fifteen taels.

When there are major events in the house, they all go to the public account, and the other is that the ladies have shops and Zhuangzi to marry, and they also have some income in their hands. The marriage of a concubine is only a dowry of 5,000 taels, and the concubine is only 3,000 taels.

Many people didn't look at these thousands of taels of silver, but they all keenly grasped the opportunities and opportunities brought by this incident.

How are these summer melons ripe? What does it have to do with those vegetables that appear in winter? Can they be realized in large quantities? If this recipe is in your own hands, it is undoubtedly a good way to make money!

So a lot of people are ready to move. It's a pity that after touching melons all the way, he touched the prince's body......

The second prince had long been aware that this matter had something to do with the crown prince. Almost the crown prince entered the palace one step forward, and he received the news one step later.

Thinking of the emperor's praise of the prince's pure filial piety, and rewarded him with a garden, he couldn't help but be angry. A summer melon not only changed to a delicate and gorgeous courtyard, but also won the emperor's approval! This deal is too worth it! How could he not meet such a good thing!

The second prince has thought a lot from this aspect, the people take food as the sky, and clothing, food, housing and transportation are undoubtedly the most basic and can affect the political situation. If he has such a secret method in his hands, can he change his current predicament?

However, the second prince did not intend to make money from this, but wrote a copy of the report and submitted it to the emperor's desk. One is that he is convinced that this technology, if it is promoted, will definitely benefit all people. The other, naturally, showed to the emperor that he had no selfish intentions. It's not about fame, either.

It's just that the second prince thinks well, but how to snatch the benefits from the crown prince?

The second prince hooked the corners of his lips, his mind moved, and he thought of a good idea to kill three birds with one stone.

The prince didn't know that someone was calculating him, but Ruan Jingxin listened to Cuiluo's report, and her brows furrowed slightly.

It is not uncommon for the second prince to ask around about the origin of the summer melon, how could he make such a big fanfare, as if he was afraid that others would not know?

Ruan Jingxin stood up, walked to the window, and kept turning her brain. The second prince is a person who attaches great importance to profit, and it must be of great benefit to do so. Secondly, his constant mind is naturally the high chair, and the prince is the boulder standing in front of him!

When he did this, he was afraid that he was calculating something! It was still aimed at this summer melon incident. What is it? Ruan Jingxin closed her eyes and carefully strung the front and back carefully, and suddenly realized!

"I see!" Ruan Jingxin sneered. Sure enough, it was harming others and benefiting oneself! This Dongfang Huayuan really had a lot of thoughts, no wonder the prince's position was stable, and he was finally pulled down! Although he had his own financial and material resources to help her at that time, Dongfang Yuanhua never let her participate in political affairs. This is also the reason why her subordinates were torn apart.
