Chapter 020: Discovery

It is an exaggeration to say that it is a 'matchmaker', but Huo Jinxiu can have a connection with the Xie family, and there is indeed a reason for Gu Jialuo. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since three years ago, Master Miaozhen was in the middle, Gu Jialuo and the richest man in Daqi Xie had business dealings, when Gu Jialuo and his wife went to the southwest, the Xie family was even more proud to send each other all the way, and opened up a new business in the southwest.

Gu Jialuo was able to live comfortably in a wild place like Wumeng, and the strong logistics capabilities of the Xie Clan played a crucial role.

Gu Jialuo is very grateful to the Xie family, and he also has a good impression of the current wealthy and scattered Xie Xiangdong.

So, when Gu Jialuo was about to open a characteristic plantation in the southwest, she first thought of the Xie family.

Growing pepper with the Xie family, Gu Jialuo and the Xie family became closer and closer.

At that time, Huo Jinxiu's marriage happened to encounter a sudden change, and Gu Jialuo felt sorry for his best friend, so he wanted to divert her attention. When writing a letter to Huo Jinxiu, Gu Jialuo focused on his various encounters in the southwest, and also proposed to invite Huo Jinxiu to invest in the plantation.

If it is not to make money, it is also good that Huo Jinxiu can no longer indulge in the grief and anger of being retired.

Besides, even if it's about making money, it's nothing. The Huo family prepared a rich dowry for Huo Jinxiu, but for women, they didn't think they had too much dowry.

Moreover, after the pepper is ripe, the Xie firm will transport the pepper to all parts of the country for sale, and the capital is the main battlefield for sales.

However, Huo Menglong is the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, commanding the garrison of the capital, and he can be regarded as a local snake, and the pepper business is profitable, and with the strong support of the Huo family, the business can be smoother.

Huo Jinxiu was very curious after receiving Gu Jialuo's letter, she knew the value of pepper, but she never thought that pepper could be grown in large quantities like grain, melons and vegetables.

After listening to Gu Jialuo's suggestion, she was quite moved, so she showed the letter to Cui's family.

Cui's rules are important, but she is not an old antique who does not understand the world and does not know how to change, on the contrary, as a housewife who presides over the feed, she knows the importance of money better than anyone else.

The Xie family, the first emperor merchant of Daqi, was also involved, and the Cui family was even more convinced of the feasibility of this business.

After some discussion with her husband, Cui told her daughter, "This is possible." Garo treats you like Akagi, and he has lived up to your childhood friendship. Don't let her down in the future. ”

Huo Jinxiu nodded again and again, Xiang'er treated her well, she knew it. She and Xiang'er want to be good sisters for a lifetime.

Huo Jinxiu immediately replied to Gu Jialuo's suggestion, and sent a silver ticket of 5,000 taels of silver given by Cui's with the letter, which was used as the principal for the shares.

Five thousand taels of silver, a lot, but Gu Jialuo didn't pay attention to it.

She was willing to pull Huo Jinxiu into the shares, not for money, but she understood the meaning of the Huo family, and a transparent person like the Cui family would not be willing to take advantage of Gu Jialuo in vain.

After thinking about it, Gu Jialuo accepted the silver ticket, and gave a share of her shares to Huo Jinxiu, she personally wrote the share sharing agreement, and collected some special gadgets from the southwest to send them back to the capital together.

…… In this way, Huo Jinxiu, Xie Shi and Gu Jialuo became partners.

Huo Jinxiu's shareholding, Gu Jialuo did not hide it from the Xie family, after all, the Huo family's shareholding is also very beneficial to business. In order to show her respect, she still wrote a letter to Xie Xiangdong in person.

Xie Xiangdongsheng had a delicate heart, and after reading the letter, he understood what Gu Jialuo meant, and he specially went to Huo's house to visit Huo Menglong.

Neither of them said anything about the pepper business, just chatting about some gossip in Beijing, but they both knew in their hearts that from then on, the two were business partners.

Subsequently, if the Huo family has any red and white ceremonies and banquets, the Xie family will send people to participate appropriately.

And what activities the Xie family has, the Huo family will also participate in one or two selectively.

When they meet in public, the daughters of the Xie and Huo families will communicate.

Slowly, the two became acquainted. It is precisely because of this familiarity that when the Cui family chooses a husband for their daughter, they will include the sons and nephews of the Xie family in the list of candidates.

"No matter what, it is also the fate of heaven that they can get married."

Qi Jinzhi listened to Gu Jialuo's words, and couldn't help but smile and said, "I have also seen that Xie Xiangnan, and he is indeed a good and motivated young man." He has handsome eyebrows and extraordinary appearance, and he has a bit of the freedom of Wei and Jin celebrities in his gestures. If someone who didn't know his identity saw him, they wouldn't have thought that he was born in a merchant family. ”

Gu Jialuo listened carefully to Qi Jinzhi's analysis, and interjected, "Wei and Jin celebrities? He—He's not too debauched, is he? ”

The so-called celebrities and celebrities want to be uninhibited and challenge the world, Huo Jinxiu is a good girl, Gu Jialuo doesn't want her to encounter scumbags one after another.

Qi Jin was stunned, and then laughed, "When I say that he has the style of Wei and Jin, it is not that he is debauched, but that he is not as rigid as many scholars nowadays." Xie Xiangnan, this kid, Yunwen Yunwu, reads well, but he doesn't despise martial artists. On the contrary, I feel that the real good people who govern the world should be like Wang Xie, who can pacify the world and govern the country and enrich the people......"

Gu Jialuo's eyes lit up, "How can he have such knowledge?" ”

If that's the case, then this Xie Xiangnan is really a good seedling.

You must know that as Daqi becomes more stable and wealthy, and with the deliberate guidance of saints, the officialdom has gradually tended to emphasize literature and light military force from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

More and more scholars, and even scholars, preach all day long the idea that 'everything is inferior, only reading is high', and despise all other existences. Martial artists, in particular, were the main objects of ridicule and contempt of the literati.

In the main hall of the court, the boundaries between the civil and military generals are becoming clearer and clearer, and the distance between them is getting bigger and bigger.

The sage was happy to suppress those princes and generals who held military power, and whenever he encountered a civil and military conflict, as long as it did not involve the principle of the general direction, he would favor the civil servants regardless of right and wrong.

After a long time, Wenchen's status was faintly higher than that of military attachés of the same rank.

With such a trend prevailing, scholars are even more dismissive of those who practice martial arts, and they even have prejudices against martial arts. It was as if training their legs and feet and riding a horse would stain their noble bodies.

Qi Jinzhi has only one comment on this kind of reader: "Reading is stupid, don't you know that a gentleman has six arts?!" Compared with those stupid nerds, Xie Xiangnan is indeed much better. and Xiao Ruyu, who is also a good boy who is both civil and military. ”

Gu Jialuo raised his eyebrows, "Uncle has seen Xiao Ruyu?" ”

This is the object that the county lord of Qinghe specially chose for Qi Minzhi, and she didn't believe that Qi Jinzhi would not care.

Qi Jinzhi nodded, "I also heard my father mention it yesterday, and I went to talk to him after I got off the office today." I wanted to tell you after I probed his details, but I didn't want you to know it already...... That kid, not bad, barely qualified to be my sister-in-law. ”

Gu Jialuo couldn't help but chuckle, "You didn't 'learn' martial arts with him, did you?" "In the name of learning, do 'beating people'?

said that, Gu Jialuo found a problem in his heart: whether it was his mother-in-law or Cui's family, they all chose a scholar from a noble background for his beloved daughter. It's worth playing. (To be continued.) )
