Chapter 174: Righteousness and Kindness
Three days later, Mrs. Xian personally brought Zu Juntian to the Marquis of Changfeng's mansion to be hired.
Accompanying Zu Juntian to see Qin Zhiyuan, in addition to Sima Yulou, there was also Sima Jue, the king of the East China Sea.
After the period of the expedition was over, Qin Zhiyuan stayed in the house for two more days, and still returned to Biyun Temple, and came back when he was welcomed.
Old Madam Qin sent Xie over and brought the dowry list prepared for Jinru. In addition to the inheritance and dowry that her mother left her in front of her, the old lady remembered that Jinru grew up by her side, and gave her a lot of private property, plus the things added by Princess Chuchen, Jinru's dowry was much richer than Jinyi's.
Jin Yi and Jin Ru learned to manage the industry accounts together, in addition to inviting the shopkeeper to come to the house, Qian Mo and Liu Mama are also proficient in this. Since then, the two have been busy, in addition to learning these every day, they also have to embroider wedding dresses, and the rest of their spare time, Jin Yi will follow Jin Ru to learn words, or play chess.
The days are full, but Jin Yi enjoys such busyness, unlike in the past, when she was in Shangxiutang and Meiju, the boring practice and the gloomy future made her feel tired, if it weren't for her firm will, I'm afraid she would have been unable to support it and give up.
Now it's different, the first thing I do every morning is to put a green jade plum into the lily dew, and watch the plums in the bottle slowly increase, and my heart is also steady.
When she got up early this morning, Qian Mo came to greet her and said that Uncle Cheng was here.
After Uncle Cheng came in, he first let Qiao Wei, Qianmo and the others go out. Then he bowed to Jin Yi and said solemnly: "Subordinate Cheng Lei congratulates Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Jin Yi hurriedly stepped forward and supported him with both arms, "Uncle Cheng, don't do this!" …… Yekang has long since died, what princess is he called......"
He still insisted on finishing the salute, and then he stood up, looking at her with a look of relief in his eyes, "Seeing you like this now, my subordinates are relieved, and they are finally worthy of the life-saving grace of the lord of the country to me!" ”
Jin Yi shook her head, her eyes red, "If you hadn't saved me, I would have been buried in the desert with my father and mother." Uncle Cheng, from now on, don't mention the word subordinate, I have long regarded you as my own relative. ”
Cheng Lei was inexplicably moved, he was in the Western Regions back then, and later gathered a group of people in the desert to become sand thieves. Once, the team was surrounded by wolves and trapped for three days and three nights. Cheng Lei is profound, vigorous and vigorous, and fought until the end, countless wolf corpses were piled up around him, but the others were torn to pieces by the remaining wolves and gnawed clean......
The new Yekang Wang Yaoyun passed by here, ordered his guards to drive away the wolves with rockets, and finally rescued the dying Cheng Lei from the pile of wolf corpses and brought him back to the royal city.
Yekang is located in the westernmost part of the Western Regions, and the royal family is not as honorable as the Central Plains Dynasty. Yao Yun admired him for his strong martial arts, and he could have been able to get out of trouble alone, but because of his brother's righteousness, he fought to the end, and he was really a loyal and brave person. After rescuing him, he was fed and clothed, and took care of him day and night.
Cheng Lei was grateful to Yaoyun for saving his life, and since then he has stayed in the Yekang Palace and served as his personal guard.
…… If it weren't for Ji Shuxuan's rescue and arranging the identity of the concubine of the Marquis of Qingrong, Cheng Lei looked at the princess in front of him, she is now Qin Jinyi, with a safe and secure identity, she will become the new princess of Chuchen, presumably the spirit of the lord and queen in the sky, seeing the current appearance of the youngest daughter, there will be no regrets.
Jin Yi shook his arm lightly and pulled him to sit down, "Uncle Cheng, Yulou promised me that in the future, he will definitely find out the truth about Yekang's destruction of the country for me, you can rest assured." ”
Cheng Lei retracted his thoughts and nodded with a smile, "You two are both very smart, there is the deterrence of King Chuchen in the open, and there is the Yishan Hall to collect news in the dark, I believe that nothing can be difficult for you, I am naturally relieved." ”
Jin Yi said "um", "Did you send a letter to Mr. Ji?" ”
A trace of worry flashed in Cheng Lei's eyes, but Jin Yi didn't notice it, and said vaguely: "Mr. Ji already knows that the two of you are going to get married,...... But you also know that he will not go out of Shu, so he can't come to drink the wedding wine of the two of you, and only explain to Yishantang that from now on, it will be the two of you, and he will not interfere again. ”
In Ji Shuxuan's reply, Cheng Lei found that he was not unexpectedly happy about the marriage between the two, on the contrary, he had some faint objections, but he completely handed over the Yishan Hall he founded to the two of them.
In fact, since Cheng Lei arrived in Jianye, Ji Shuxuan has already intended to let go, and everything needs to be reported to Sima Yulou, and it will no longer be transmitted back to Meiju from the original pigeon station.
Jin Yi didn't notice Uncle Cheng's strange appearance, and remembered that Xiao Lou said last time that he would let him learn to do business, so he asked, "What is the situation of Yishantang now?" ”
Sima Yulou wanted to reopen the trade route in the Western Regions, and had already instructed Cheng Lei to have close contacts with the Hu merchants in the city. At this time, when she asked, she said: "Although Yishantang is a fundraising and charity hall on the surface, in fact, the business has been very big over the years, in addition to the silk villages, rice shops, and auction houses selling chips in Jianye City, the business is all over the south and northwest of the Yangtze River.
In the past two years, the Jiangnan branch has added more than a dozen new silk Zhuangzi, planted mulberry and silkworms by themselves, invited a large number of weaving and dyeing people, and sent silk to the Jiangnan weaving house every year. Cao Yun also has our fleet, and Jian Ye exchanging grain, rice and silk, in addition to Guan Cao, is our Yi Shan Tang's business is the most prosperous.
A few years ago, Yishantang began to make friends with merchants from all walks of life in the Western Regions, and many Hu shops in the city had red chips in them, and we would supply them from Jiangnan when they arrived, and then they would transport them to the Western Regions. It can be said that in the future, if the business road is officially opened, our business on the east and west sides of Yishantang will definitely be the first. ”
Jin Yi listened carefully, and wondered in his heart, did the Yishan Hall built by Mr. Ji be planned for Xiaolou in the first place?
She asked with some puzzlement, "Why did Mr. Ji start Yishan Tong in the first place?" If it's just for disaster relief and orphan relief, you don't need to make a big deal with the Jingzhong family. Now that Yishantang is really popular, why did he leave it alone? ”
"In the original Yizentang, orphans were raised only to select outstanding talents and cultivate them. However, the affairs of the mystical ones are very secret, and not many people in the church know about them now. ”
Jin Yi nodded, she was also in Meiju, she only vaguely knew some things about the mysteries, it was a group of talents personally cultivated by Mr. Ji, who were taught profound martial arts and business methods respectively.
"Nowadays, there is no such thing as a mystery, and the people who take care of the shops in various places for Yishantang are all shrewd and good at management, and these are the merchants. As for the Martial Masters, I don't know. Cheng Lei shook his head, "You can ask the prince about these things in the future." ”
Jin Yi nodded silently, but he faintly felt a little strange in his heart, King Chu Chen and Mr. Ji seemed to have a deep relationship. (To be continued.) )
