In the official announcement article of the Southeast Mansion, it has always been said that Yan Changwu's wife is Yang Ying'er, and the first woman is the concubine Shuang'er, but in fact, there is another person who has allocated Yan Changwu's lead.
……
In the Governor's Hall of the Tainan Military Governor's Office.
There is luxuriously decorated, everywhere is full of atmosphere, the floor is built of granite on Kaohsiung Mountain, all of which are built with one meter, in most areas, the floor tiles are just small green bricks, and the surrounding decoration adopts gold silk sandalwood, and the appearance is only oil varnish, which fully presents its charming metallic luster, a piece of brilliance, and the furniture is made of red sandalwood, stable and generous.
The Overseer's desk and chair sit north and face south, a step above the surrounding area, surrounded by a circle of chairs, and at the other end is a long table cut from a large piece of mahogany with a clear texture on it, surrounded by chairs for tea.
Yan Changwu was reviewing documents and meeting with arranged visitors, and he was very busy.
Just sent off a visitor, a new visitor walked in with a small footstep, Yan Changwu raised his head and looked at it, slightly surprised.
A girl, wearing a light blue elegant back (also known as a gown, can be used as a coat, generally divided into two types: where the placket. large sleeves, usually a lady's dress; Where the placket. Small sleeves, usually for ordinary women's casual clothes. She wore large sleeves, a fuchsia collar, and a skirt that revealed a pink peony placket, and the upper and lower clothes were very harmonious.
Looking at the face, she has a plain goose egg face, dignified facial features, high appearance, and a white complexion, she is a beauty from the North, at least with the level of "Sister Chi Ling".
Look at the chest, not small (later field exploration, confirmed that his eyes are good).
Looking at the height, the charm is charming, at least seven meters, which is considered high in ancient times, but she should be from the north, or not surprisingly, she is just a girl from the north, ran to Fujian Province, and entered his office?
Her temperament is the style of a royal sister, full of femininity, but she is still young, less than thirty years old.
Facing Yan Changwu, the girl saluted and said, "The people have seen the Overseer!" Her voice was pleasant and soft.
Yan Changwu raised his hand and said, "Please take a seat!" ”
This Shu's name is "Zhang Gongshi", and she is the hostess of the famous "Henghechang" business in Fuzhou on the other side of the strait!

The armored suit (that is, the deer armor) is not there below, in fact, there is, but it is too ugly, so the guys in the southeast mansion are wearing armor above, and the ones below are gone to fight, becoming a big scene on the battlefield, Yan Changwu hid his face and left!
This can't be helped, how good can the things sewn out by Yamanomura Gu?
Having won battles (if you don't win, you won't have the heart), plus with money, Yan Changwu is determined to upgrade the fleet uniforms and accessories to show his majesty.
"The Buddha relies on gold clothes, people rely on clothes, don't be afraid to spend money, let everyone see our officers and soldiers, and have a kind of 'wow, they are so majestic and handsome', then I will achieve the goal I want."

As soon as the news of the bidding came out, the major garment stores on the other side of the strait immediately rushed to cross the sea to bid, and as a result, the "Henghechang" where the "Zhang Gong's" was located successfully won the bid with only fifty percent of the asking price of the second winning bidder.
"Are your things ready?" Yan Changwu asked.
