Chapter 498: Finally Able to Attend a Wedding Banquet
Meng Ge didn't know if this could be done, but she knew that since the girl had come here, it would be a death sentence to send her back, so it would be better to do a good deed.
It's just that the people of the Shi family are willing to take care of this matter?
"Yu Yang, you tell me all your future plans, if you have a future, which elder is willing to marry your daughter to you. Besides, you can actually ask for a job, as long as it doesn't involve confidentiality. Meng Ge thought for a moment.
As a little catcher, he is indeed not worthy of the daughter of someone else's mansion.
Yu Yang opened his mouth, and finally said in frustration: "I don't want to sell my life anymore, just go back to the army." However, when I was in the army, I learned that there was a place in the northwest that was rich in jade. But the jade isn't worth much here. I thought, mine those jade with someone, take the rough stone back and put it back, wait for the price of that jade to sell before selling, and open a jade workshop by the way. ”
This is a good way to make a living, Yu Yang has channels in the army, and it is guaranteed in terms of transportation and purchase, except for the northwest, this small country in the southeast is actually rich in jade. For example, jadeite.
It's just that in the current market, nephrite, Dushan jade and Xiuyu are the mainstays, and jadeite and quartz jade, which are jadeite, have not yet formed a market, but they can seize the opportunity first.
It is said that there is already a certain market for turquoise now, so don't meddle anymore.
However, Yu Yang became a gem merchant, and Master Fu could agree to marry his daughter to him?
Wang Ran has something to say about this. He saw that it was a little inappropriate for Yu Yang to stand with something in his hand, so he asked him to go and sweep the elders first.
"Since the emperor came to power, he has been more tolerant of merchants, and even raised their value, allowing people who have been freed from slavery and the second generation of merchants to participate in scientific examinations. Wang Ran helped Meng Ge to go down the mountain, while explaining.
In other words, no matter how low the status of the current businessman is, it is almost the same as that of a farmer, and even has an advantage over the peasant.
The peasants depend on the sky for food, and those who dig in the fields have limited money. But businessmen are different, they have an advantage in finances in the first place, and with a wide network of contacts, they are more able to buy books and good gentlemen.
At this point, the emperor did elevate the status of the merchants. As for the scientific examination of slaves who are allowed to leave the country, it must also give those who sell their bodies a chance to compete fairly.
In the old system, only the third generation of people who had left their nationality were allowed to participate in scientific examinations.
Since the emperor is so open-minded, then she will let go of her hands and feet and ask the people of the Shi family for help. If Yu Yang made a big fortune and had the help of the Fu family, his descendants would not be limited to the identity of a businessman.
Besides, Yu Yang also has two large granges, and his household registration is also a farmer, so he is not a pure businessman at all.
"Then you say, will the people of the Fu family squeeze Yu Yang, ask for money from him, and pave their Qingyun Road?" Meng Ge was still not at ease.
Wang Ran was also very helpless at this point. But anyone who walks in the officialdom is inseparable from a money word. Yu Yang's ability in this area is outstanding, and it is inevitable that he will be squeezed.
Well, officials and businessmen have not been separated since ancient times. No matter how low the status of businessmen is, there are officials behind them who support them.
Isn't there an existence of an imperial businessman, it's better to let Yu Yang fight for this title.
"Then I'll ask him to go to a small country in Southeast Asia to find some jadeite jadeite, and by the way, buy a few mines in their local area. Meng Ge thought for a moment.
Historically, the territory where she now lives also has jade origins. However, the jade varieties here are relatively large and not pure enough, and most of them are topaz and malachite. And the topaz here belongs to nephrite, which is not highly transparent, but slightly glowing with a lustrous milky color, which is very warm.
But there are also large crystal mines here, and crystal products can be used as the main thing at that time. For example, a complete set of dinner plates, bowls and cups, as well as a variety of large crystal ornaments, the value is not too high.
"I'll ask him to find some masters who can polish and carve, so that he won't have to get a piece of the pie. Meng Ge thought about doing it, and quickly helped Yu Yang plan for the future.
Wang Ran listened to it on the side, and said dissatisfiedly: "You have opened up any road for Yu Yang, but you don't care about the future of our children?"
Meng Ge was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Okay, you Wang Ran, you said that you will marry me to share it for me, but I still bear everything by myself, what use do I want you?"
Wang Ran shrunk his neck, very carefully shunned Meng Ge's hair, and said, "I'm not worried that you will think about any benefit for others, but you will snub our children." Besides, haven't you been taking care of anything lately, and I've done it all for you. ”
Well, that's exactly what happened. But Meng Ge was still unhappy and said, "What you did was what I had already thought about." You say, can you think about it for our children? If you can't figure it out, you can just go back to the capital. ”
As soon as Wang Ran heard this, he knew that he was jealous, so he quickly admitted his mistake, and also said his plan for the child's future.
Meng Mao and Meng Ji laughed when they heard it in the back, thinking that after Meng Ge got married, he would be like a child. Wang Ran can spoil her, otherwise the two will quarrel every day.
However, no matter what, under the mediation of the Meng Ge sisters and brothers, and with the help of the Shi family, they quickly asked for a family affair for Yu Yang.
After Yu Yang got the good news, he breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said aggrievedly: "Everyone else is happy to marry a daughter-in-law, but I am the only one, and I am always frightened when I want to marry." Now, when I sort out some dowry gifts, I will personally take them to Beijing to ask for relatives, and send people back by the way, so as not to be criticized. ”
Yu Yang's marriage is definitely going to be held in his hometown, and Meng Ge is happy that he can finally participate in a wedding.
She probably had a grudge against the wedding in her life, and when Zhao Lei and Zhao Jier got married, she fell ill. Last time Xing Fan's wedding, she went to the northwest again. Later, it was Shi Wenzhen and Wang Yan, who were pregnant again and couldn't participate.
Now on her doorstep, she didn't believe she could miss it.
So she counted her fingers every day and waited, and when Yu Yang got married at the beginning of the New Year, she took gifts and went to the door to drink the wedding wine.
Wang Ran and Meng Mao looked at her helplessly, and couldn't bear to tell her that her due date was just a few days away.
Meng Ji, who was about to leave, felt sorry for Meng Ge, and after thinking about it, he had to comfort her like this: "Sister, you wait, I will say that I will marry in the future, and you will be indispensable for a while." and Xiao Mao'er, he will get married in the future, and you will help him do it. ”
At the mention of this, Meng Ge's face darkened, and he roared: "Okay, you Meng Ji, you married a daughter-in-law and didn't let her be in charge of the house, took over my burden, and you still want me to run around for Xiao Mao'er's marriage, you are treating me as a cow." Don't forget, I'm married. ”
Okay, the fart slapped on the corbel.
