The war has been going on for almost a year.

Rao is rich in Jiangnan, and he has been preparing silently in previous years, and he also feels a little pressure. After all, the amount of land in Jiangnan is only that, and the annual output is only that. There is not much in the land, and even if there is silver, there is nowhere to buy it.

Nanyang Commercial Bank got back hundreds of thousands of stones at once, and the follow-up was obviously a continuous source of energy, more food. The price of food in Jianning City soon began to fall, which made it like a bolt from the blue for many people who had a large amount of grain in their hands and were ready to make a fortune. And for ordinary people, it is great news.

Yesterday, it took 20 wen to buy a pound of rice, but today it was immediately reduced to 16 wen a catty!

Not to mention, compared with the existing grain on the market, the grain brought back by Nanyang Commercial Bank is extra fragrant and tastes better! Why did you find out so quickly, you ask? Because of the opening of the rice shop under the Nanyang Commercial Bank, for three consecutive days, anyone can receive a pound of white flowers and fragrant rice for free!

Whether it is the scolding of the grain merchants or the cheers of the people, it is worth determining that as soon as the Nanyang Rice Store opened, it became popular all over Jianning City. As for Ji Tong, who served as the chief treasurer of Nanyang Commercial Bank at a young age, everyone knows it.

Fortunately, to the reassurance of the grain merchants, Nanyang Commercial Bank did not go too far, and when the price of rice fell back to 12 wen a catty, it would no longer reduce the price. This price is still several cents more expensive than before the war last year. No one dared to offend the Qin State Mansion because of this little interest, pinched his nose, and admitted it.

The nobles saw a new way to make money from the dozen or so boats of grain in the Nanyang Commercial Bank.

Spend a lot of money to buy land in Daqing. How much can I buy? I heard that those small countries in Nanyang are full of wasteland, as long as you give a little money to buy the local officials, no one cares how you occupy the land! Moreover, the land over there can be three crops a year, and it can be harvested by the sky! There's no need to work hard at all!

Is there really such a good place in the world?

The nobles are all tempted! came forward to inquire, and for a while, Ji Tong invited countless banquets.

If it weren't for the fact that Daqing was fighting against Beijin, I was afraid that some officials would see the success of Nanyang Commercial Bank and would have suggested sending troops to the south! When Emperor Qinglong heard the news, he was also shocked. He also made an exception to summon Ji Tong. I asked him about his experience in Nanyang. It's just that there's nothing explicit.

Compared with the hot and noisy rice shop, the opening of Yun's silk and satin pile is much more low-key. But soon, the ladies and ladies of the capital also knew that the color of this satin pile was very novel and beautiful. And there is a kind of high-end goods. It is not sold in the store. Only the samples are made into a booklet for people to choose and pre-order, and each suit is at least two and up to five, and there will be no duplicates. The asking price is very high.

What the ladies care about is that no one wears the same color as themselves, and it is nothing to be expensive.

As a result, Yun's Silk Village soon gained a foothold in the silk business in the capital.

Shen Rouning heard about these news, but she didn't care too much. What she cares about is that she finally got the first dividend, not much, only more than three hundred taels of silver, and it came at the right time-

The Mid-Autumn Festival feast of flowers is just around the corner, and there will be many masters and mothers in the palace, so it is necessary to add people to serve these masters. Moreover, an old palace maid will also be released. There are a lot of vacancies, so you have to recruit from the outside, and the gap is very serious.

Because there is a war and a small election, there is very little movement in the palace to recruit show girls, and the first batch is even bought directly from various Ya women. Well, Daqing has been smooth and prosperous in recent years, and there is no shortage of these silvers.

However, Ya Po has limited manpower, and it is okay to respond to emergencies, not a long-term solution.

The long-term plan is to recruit young girls between the ages of seven and ten, and to adjust (teach) from an early age, so that they can do their jobs, be sensible and obedient, and use them with confidence.

Therefore, at the end of the year, the palace will definitely send people to the land of the two lakes to select young girls of appropriate age to enter the palace. The palace maid is not so easy to be. But anyone who has a way will not send their daughters to the palace to suffer, they are all poor families, so they will give up their daughters in tears.

If Shen Rouning wants to stuff people into the palace, she only has this opportunity.

Soon, her money was spent, and she got a list of ten names written on it. Regarding these poor little girls, Shen Rouning didn't have much contact, but just fulfilled her promise to them very carefully.

Within a few days, Master Shen Si received a notice to recruit twenty young girls between the ages of seven and ten in Yueyang County to enter the palace as palace maids. The ten little girls on Shen Rouning's list successfully lived in the courtyard prepared by the county government and them, and after asking someone to teach them a little, they were sent to the government office.

After Shen Rouning finished doing this, she didn't think much about it anymore and devoted herself to painting again.

She began to stop blindly imitating Western techniques, and had some of her own ideas and ideas, and after trying them over and over again, she was finally able to have a work that made her feel a little progress and breakthrough, and a little bit satisfied.

Even if she learned that Shen Rouqing and Shen Roulan both passed the primary election, she was only surprised for a moment and didn't pay much attention to it-

Although they are of the same clan, Master Shen San and Mrs. Shen San have always been very self-motivated. In order for Shen Roubing not to block the path of Qinglan and the others, she promised Shen Roubing without hesitation...... Moreover, Shen Rouqing and Shen Roulan must also be happy with this result, everyone has their own ambitions, why should she be worried.

The Shen family is not the Chen family.

The standards that the Chen family insisted on were not applicable to the Shen family.

Master Shen San is just a fifth-grade official. Qinglan and the others really entered the palace, but it was smooth sailing, and they stayed until the day when they really came out...... I don't know what will happen at that time.

Shen Rouning was not worried.

When Master Shen Si received the news, he just frowned, wrote a letter to persuade him, and did his best, and then put it down.

He now has something more to be excited about.

Mrs. Shen Si is happy!

After seven years, when Master Shen Si never looked forward to it, Mrs. Shen Si was pregnant with a child again!

When Fourth Master Shen heard the news, a person in his thirties who became the county lord trembled with excitement and couldn't speak! only looked at Mrs. Shen Si, there was only her in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth cracked to the sky!

He's going to have kids again!

Mrs. Shen Si was still faint, and she didn't see much joy, but she gently touched her lower abdomen, as if she had been out of her mind for a long time.

That night, after carefully settling Mrs. Shen Si, she asked for a table of wine and food from the kitchen for the first time to drink by herself. By the time Shen Rouning received the news that he might be drunk and rushed over, Shen Si was already crying and laughing.

"Ah Ning, you know what? I'm so happy today, I've never been so happy. Shen Si's eyes were drunk and hazy, so he sat down Shen Rouning, and wanted to say something, but tears had already flowed down the corners of his eyes.
