Chapter 212: Heartfelt Conversation (2)

said a thousand ways and ten thousand, Fu Jin is worried about the prince and misses it! Can a couple who have been in love for more than 20 years miss each other for a year?

"Lord Wang, where have you been?" Fu Jin still hasn't forgotten this topic, she still has a lot of questions and things to ask the prince.

"The place we went to is not far away, but it is not close."

"What kind of place is that?"

"If you want to say close, the three of us haven't left the capital."

Fu Jin's eyes widened, and his mouth opened, looking at Wang Ye, not knowing what he was talking about.

"If you want to say far, more than 200 years later."

"Lord Wang! Don't scare your concubines! Can you be clearer and more detailed? ”

"That is to say, we went to the capital more than 200 years later, and Master called it 'Exotic Space'."

"Bad understanding. How is it possible that the people of the present have run away to the future? ”

"Then let me ask you, who did you hear say that the person who fell into the well will be lifted up with a lotus flower? Back then, I fought on the battlefield, I was seriously injured, and I died, but it was the Master's water that saved me, what panacea in the world can help a dead person up? And you, and Yun'er, who pulled our family back from Huangquan Road? Don't you know who Master is? He has the ability to let us transcend time and space and go where we should go, isn't that also an easy thing for him? ”

"You say that, Xiu'er understands a little. Is that place good? What did you do when you went? ”

"This is a long story, and it can't be said that it is good or not, and compared with the Qing Dynasty, they are two completely different worlds. Xiu'er, this year really makes you think about it. I'm also anxious over there, but I can't come back until it's over, and I can't come back no matter how far I go, and I don't have that ability after hundreds of years? There is also no way to write a letter. ”

"Master said to take you to Yunyou, do you still use Yunyou in this place in the capital?"

"There are many forms of cloud travel, not necessarily just sightseeing. In the past, there were monks and Taoists who traveled specifically to endure hardships. The three of us have a mission, go out to buy things, learn trades, and then come back to do business. ”

"Doing business? However, the officials of the Qing Dynasty are not allowed to do business, not to mention that you are still a prince! ”

"This is a task given by Master, and it must be completed. The Qing Dynasty prohibits business, which means that officials are not allowed to use their positions to accumulate money for themselves in the form of business. We are in business to help the next emperor create a glorious history, and there is no personal self-interest. You say that we will give a certain amount of the money we earn from business to the emperor, will the emperor object? This is not in a hurry, it's not like you're going out to sell things tomorrow, you have to be prepared, right? It's normal for you to be worried, but what, this is the master's arrangement, the master's order, and we can't make any discounts, and the three of us went to the foreign land to prepare for this matter. It's not something we want to do or not, it's something that must be done and done well, and the boat will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge, and you can learn if you don't understand it. Going to a foreign land, Yun'er is afraid that you have an idea: why didn't the housewife go to her? If I don't go, I can't do it, then if you go to the mansion again, there is no one who can hold it down, can Yun'er hold up a palace? Not at all. On the other hand, Yun'er is young, curious, interested in everything, and wants to learn everything. The legs and feet are sharp, and it is convenient to go out to buy anything, but the master thinks about the problem, but no matter who is the status or whose face, he thinks about it holistically, and he does not mean to look down on anyone. So it was decided to let Yun'er go. You really don't have an idea? ”

"You're thinking too much about it. The concubine is already in her forties, and she is much lazier than before, and she can hide from some things. Thanks to Yun'er and Liangzi, two young people following you, there is something to run before and after. Besides, Yun'er is also your woman, what's the difference between her going to me and me? This year has made Yun'er tired. Thanks to her going, she was able to take care of the prince. ”

"This is because you understand the righteousness, for the careful eye, maybe you think that this prince led Yun'er away."

Fu Jin laughed: "You and Yun'er ran away from the concubine, but there is no way at all!" But if you run away, the monk can't run to the temple, you still have a throne and children. ”

The prince laughed: "The throne is small, I have to lead you to run together, holding my daughter and carrying my son, and taking Yun'er ......"

"Then what are you going to run, it's better to live a stop in the house!" The two of them laughed.

"Lord Wang, you, Yun'er, and Liangzi didn't bring a tael of silver or a piece of clothing when you left, how can you solve the problem of eating, wearing, and living this year? And those things, where did you get the money to buy them? ”

"We didn't bring any silver, and as you know, Master asked Yun'er to bring a few antiques, some of which were her dowry back then, and some were the bottom of Mr.'s old box. Over there, antiques are called cultural relics, and the real thing is still very valuable. We lived on these antiques there, and we bought a lot of things, and as you can see today, Yun'er's building is full. I lived at the house of Master's friend Sister Han. We also have a few antiques in our house, do you dare to sell them? are all rewards from the emperor. ”

"You mean that everything you bought back was bought in exchange for antiques from your husband?"

"Is it just these things? The year we lived in a foreign land, the rent, water and electricity, food, drink, and supplies, as well as Yun'er's hospitalization and children's expenses, even the wages of the people who took the car, helped us transport and carry the goods, and the people who helped us take care of the children, drove the car, and took us to the street to buy things, all the expenses were exchanged for antiques by Mr. ”

"Isn't this the same as Yun'er and Mr. feeding you? Give the money back to the gentleman. ”

"I was about to tell you this. Master has requirements, whether it is money or antiques belonging to Yun'er, they are all in the business mission, no matter how much silver the antiques have exchanged in a foreign land, Yun'er has to give it for free, so she won't ask for it if you return it to Yun'er. Sir, the money exchanged for antiques is not Yun'er's? I don't think it's Yun'er's dowry, the silver that Mr. took and the antiques that Zhou's shopkeeper collected back to him. How much savings do you have in our house? Can you make up for it? If you don't have enough, how much will you give to Mr. first, don't worry, take your time. ”

"Then how much silver do you tell your concubine to pay back to her husband?"

The prince pondered for a while and said, "This is really not good. But there's no hurry, Yun'er has an account there, and I'll prepare for him when I understand it. Thanks to the antiques of my husband and daughter, I not only covered the expenses of the three of us for a year, but also bought a lot of things. The prince did not specify how much silver was exchanged for the Qing Dynasty, let alone how much money was exchanged for foreign lands. The money on both sides is not a ratio, and saying it will frighten Fu Jin.

"The concubine Qian over there doesn't understand, just say the number, the concubine also has a plan in her heart, if the money is huge, you really can't pay it all back at once, and the house still has to live."

"Then pay it back slowly, don't be in a hurry, in the future, when you do business, you will deduct it from the deducted capital to Mr. Master gave us 25 to 30 years to do business, and the 20 years should be paid off. Thanks to Mr.'s antiques, otherwise it would have been unthinkable. Thanks to Master's friend Sister Han, the eldest sister's husband, Mr. Zhong, his younger brother, their daughter and son-in-law, and the great help of several friends, we have not been delayed for a day, and we have been busy non-stop. The eldest sister is a capable character, and before we arrived, we arranged almost what we had to do, and let us go to get familiar with the situation, and we couldn't come back for three years. ”

"There is a part of the antiques, and there is also Sister Yun's dowry, so Sister Yun should also be given some silver."

"Yun'er's share doesn't have to plan, and she can't ask for it if you give it to her. Let's pay it back to Mr. slowly. What else? He doesn't have a son, and he can support the antiques and give me all the most valuable ones. If we didn't have these antiques, we would have gone for nothing. Thinking back, including me, who had been a monk for more than ten years, I hadn't considered myself a true cultivator before Yunyou. Master told us that in addition to the three of us, there are you, Mr., Mrs. Chen, and even many people in our mansion who have come down from the holy world. We people want to do business, make money for the next emperor, and help him create a glorious history, this is our mission. Just like Tang Seng learned scriptures, he went through a lot of hardships, walked step by step to the Da Lei Yin Temple, obtained the true scriptures, established virtue in the process of learning the scriptures, and achieved positive results. Our cultivation path is different from Tang Seng's, and we have to deal with the demons of profit, money, and materialism in the process of doing business. People in the world live for fame, profit, power, and power, and even fight for a little bit of petty profit, trap and harm others. On the contrary, we take the capital for doing business, and we have to give part of the profits to the emperor, and we have to give a part to the people involved in processing and operation, and leave a part of the capital for us, without any benefit from us. Do you think you can handle it? ”

"What's not to do about that? Even the antiques of the concubines are the same. Don't say that there is no shortage of money in our house, even if there is a shortage of money, we have to do what Master said. Now the concubine suddenly understands how amazing Sister Yun'er is, so many precious antiques are exchanged for money, and the things she bought are sold for money, and no one can do it! During the day, the beard said in front of her, and people simply ignored the stubble, what kind of open-mindedness does this have to be? There is one thing that the concubine can't figure out, why only use Yun'er's antiques and not the concubine's? The concubines also have a lot of antiques as dowries? Anyway, you have to bear half of it alone, right? Mr. doesn't have a son, those antiques can really support the elderly. However, all of a sudden, she owed such a large debt, and the concubine ......"

"Don't worry, listen to me. If the antique was sold in the Qing Dynasty, it would not be worth much money at all. Do you remember that Mr. Chen pawned all the antiques for Yun'er's dowry. Those antiques, including such valuable ones as Shang Ding, were only sold for a total of 20,000 taels of silver. But on the foreign side, it sells for a lot of money. You say, is it already earned? The goods we brought back were counted as single pieces, and those that were not valuable were all daily necessities. But there are a lot of them. If these things are sold, you can still make a little money, anyway, Mr. will live in our house, and he will give them at any time. When I went out this time, I realized how powerful the background of my husband's family is. Yes, you also have antiques as a dowry, your ancestors are rich in Liaodong, and your family must have a lot of antiques. But do you know whose descendants the gentleman's family is? It is the main branch of King Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and their antiques are old. Among them is a pair of small bronze boxes, which are not very good-looking, but they are the spoils of war obtained by King Wu when he was fighting, that is to say, the age is earlier than the Zhou Dynasty, and it is an antique from the Shang Tang period or even earlier, called Shang Yi. There is also a small clay pot, which is an antique before the period of Dayu's water control. There are other oracle bones, porcelain from Rugong kiln, Wu Daozi's paintings, and Song Huizong's characters, all of which are very valuable. Your antiques may be beautiful, but the age is not necessarily as long as Mr.'s antiques. ”

"That's right, the antique dowry of the concubine is not as good as Dayu's water control and Shang Tang, and Wu Daozi's paintings and Song Huizong's words don't even think about it. Yun'er's mother often came to talk to her concubines when you were not in the house, and she said that their Chen family has been a poetry and book heirloom for many generations, a typical scholarly family. The ancestors of the concubines also studied, but they made their fortune from business, and they only started to be officials from the generation of the concubine's grandfather, where is the background? It turned out that Yun'er was still a descendant of King Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and he was also an authentic royal family. But the concubine knew that King Wu of the Western Zhou Dynasty was surnamed Ji......"

"Their family naturally went downhill in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and when the Zhou Dynasty fell, I am afraid that it will be wiped out. In order to protect themselves, each branch fled separately from Hokyo. Mr. This branch has an ancestor who was rescued by a farmer surnamed Chen, obviously to avoid any danger, so he took this opportunity to change his surname Chen. But their genealogy is still surnamed Ji, and it seems that they all have the surname Ji. ”

"Well, no wonder they have so many valuable antiques. Mr. Chen is really not simple, it will be over if he changes someone without making a sound, and no one knows what he has in his hand if he doesn't say it. ”

"You still don't know Mr. Chen, he has always thought that if I redeem the antiques, the antiques should belong to me. Just when Yun'er and I went out to travel, and the master let me take the antiques again, he returned the antiques to me in disguise. ”

"A person like Mr. should really be regarded as a beautiful day, and he doesn't take advantage of others at all."

"This is also a temperament of a reader. Yun'er performed quite well this time, and even I felt as if she had grown up several years older. If you change people and send the things you bought with the money you bought with your antiques to everyone, you will be criticized by others, and you will already be noisy. ”

"Isn't it, this concubine is angry enough, and the concubine's heart is messed up with her. It seems that the concubine's concentration is still not enough. You've all talked about an older sister, did you know each other before? ”
