Chapter 174: Selected as an Imperial Merchant

"And you, do you think I didn't know that you arranged it? From today onwards, be grounded for half a month, not allowed to see anyone, and think about your behavior. ”

The emperor asked everyone to leave Concubine Jing alone, and said sternly.

Concubine Jing originally wanted to refute, but seeing the emperor's angry expression, she was afraid, if this matter really had nothing to do with her, then she naturally dared to argue with the emperor at this time.

But if this matter is investigated, it will still involve her, and even more.

So she had to admit her mistake to the emperor at this time and accept the emperor's punishment.

And here Du Ruonan inexplicably got the butterfly clothes spinning, which made her feel a little incredible. The emperor naturally did things in a high-profile manner, and directly asked people to issue a holy decree.

However, Du Ruonan quickly calmed down, and taking over Dieyi Textile was both a good thing and a bad thing for her.

If she can research new fabrics as soon as possible, then not to mention Butterfly Cloth Spinning, even her own Ruoyu Building will go to the next level.

But if you are not careful, then butterfly textile is your own burden.

After taking over Butterfly Cloth Spinning, she immediately changed her name to Mingyue Pavilion, although Su Mingyue strongly objected, thinking that it was better to call Ruoyulou, but Du Ruonan was very firm.

Then all the guys stopped working, because Wang Quan immediately put into production after getting Du Ruonan's craftsmanship at this time, and Du Ruonan promised everyone that she would not sell these fabrics in the future.

Therefore, it has now caused the phenomenon that the two large cloth mills in the capital have stopped production at the same time.

If the people in Ruoyulou hadn't believed in Du Ruonan and Su Mingyue's character, they would have already left, after all, they couldn't sit like this, they needed wages to support the family.

It turned out that many people in Dieyi Textile chose to leave, they felt that their shopkeeper was targeting Du Ruonan, and Du Ruonan would naturally not be merciful to them.

It's better to leave happily, although Du Ruonan repeatedly said that as long as they are willing to stay, everything will remain the same.

After two months, Du Ruonan and Su Mingyue successfully researched a new cloth - snow satin.

After discussion, the place to promote snow satin was chosen as Mingyue Pavilion, which was regarded as a signboard for Mingyue Pavilion, although everyone knew that Mingyue Pavilion also belonged to Ruoyu Building.

With such a new force, Ruoyulou soon returned to its previous liveliness.

No one dares to underestimate Ruoyu Building, although it is still full of birds yesterday, but it is a city today.

Seeing that Ruoyulou had returned to its past, the guys in the cloth workshop were also full of energy. Since many old customers came to cheer, they knew Du Ruonan's good deeds, so they were waiting for Du Ruonan to open a store again to welcome people.

Soon it will be time for the annual election of the Imperial Merchants.

And this so-called imperial merchant is what tens of millions of people want. Because once you succeed in becoming an imperial businessman, then you don't have to worry about it in this life.

Of course, this imperial merchant will be re-elected once a year, but as an imperial merchant, even if it is a year, it will be a lot of money.

Now the ladies in the palace are also choosing who is the imperial merchant, because in this case, because they are the merchant of the imperial merchant, they are naturally very grateful to them.

In this way, they were able to give the merchants some benefits and do things for them. Over time, these businessmen became their eyes on the outside.

"Your Majesty, I think this year's imperial merchants should be handed over directly to Ruoyulou, and we all see their contributions to the country, so this time the imperial merchants belong to them."

At this time, the DPRK and China were discussing this matter, because of Du Ruonan's original feat, he won the battle and the country was able to keep it, so at this time, many people recommended Du Ruonan to be the imperial businessman this year.

"This matter must not be done, although she has contributed to the society, but she is just a woman, and it is difficult to guarantee that when she made this move, she did not think of moving the emperor and winning this year's imperial business, so it will be unfair to others."

Some are for and naturally there are against.

And these opponents were naturally arranged by Concubine Jing Niangniang to Wang Lun, and Wang Lun arranged them.

"Whether she thinks it or not, the credit for her is in front of us, so she deserves it."

Everyone began to argue in the court over this matter.

Although Du Ruonan's cloth workshop has been built on a large scale in just one year, there is still some distance if you want to be an imperial businessman.

The emperor was also a little hesitant at this time, not knowing what to do.

"Okay, don't make any noise, it's too loud."

The emperor said angrily.

He thought about it for a while, and felt that he could still give Du Ruonan this opportunity, of course, he would not favor her, and after passing it for the first time, it would depend on her own ability.

Ruoyu Building.

"Ruonan, we have been selected as the Imperial Merchants."

Su Mingyue excitedly told Du Ruonan the news, and this news didn't need to be told to her by the second prince, and now it is known all over the city.

This is an annual event, and everyone is watching who can become this year's royal businessman.

Of course, there are still many discussions about Du Ruonan's selection, and her opinions are also divided into two camps.

One is that she thinks that with her character, she will definitely be able to be selected as this year's imperial businessman, but the other opinion is that she is just relying on everyone's feelings for her so she was selected as an imperial businessman, and when she finally has to show her true skills, she will naturally be eliminated.

"I see."

Du Ruonan looked at Su Mingyue so excited, and said helplessly. Lazy people listen to books

She still knew about her strength, so as soon as she heard the news, she guessed that the emperor might have specially added her to thank her.

"Shouldn't you be happy to hear this? You must know that this is an imperial businessman, if we can really become an imperial businessman, it will be a supreme honor. ”

Su Mingyue saw that Du Ruonan was so calm, and asked her puzzled.

Su Mingyue was so excited, naturally she didn't fancy the silver that the imperial merchant could bring, but this glory, which represented the leader of the industry.

She used to want to be selected as an imperial merchant when she was in Jiangnan, but she never had this opportunity.

And now that she has this opportunity, she is naturally very excited.

"But with our strength, it's hard to make it to the end."

Du Ruonan voiced her worries.

"Who said we can't make it to the end, how can we know if we don't try, and even if we fail, at least we have struggled, and we can't give up now."

Su Mingyue encouraged Du Ruonan.

"You're right, we should believe in ourselves."

Listening to Su Mingyue's words, Du Ruonan's eyes lit up, she was indeed a little timid, and she was no longer afraid of tigers like her at the beginning.

But now she seems to be back to the beginning, but it is not a newborn calf, but an experienced experience.

"This is sent by the emperor today, and it is written on it the specific time and matters to be paid attention to."

Su Mingyue took out a piece of paper from her sleeve at this time and handed it to Du Ruonan.

Du Ruonan looked at the time on the paper, there was still half a month to go, which was enough for her and Su Mingyue to prepare. The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked to the embroidery room together.

At this critical moment, they naturally cannot relax.

Joy Inn.

"What? Ruo Yulou, I have never heard of it, where did it come from, how could it be selected as an imperial merchant this year? ”

A strong voice sounded, and when I saw this person, he was five big and three thick, with stubble on his face, and an apple in his mouth, and his words were full of disdain.

However, he naturally has his ability to disdain Ruoyulou like this, he is last year's imperial businessman - Gao Huan.

"The shopkeeper, but you can't underestimate this Ruoyu Building, it can grow to such a point in just one year, and its strength should not be underestimated."

The guy on the side saw that Gao Huan was so disdainful of Ruo Yulou, and hurriedly reminded.

"It's because he's only been doing it for a year, and his strength is not strong enough, so why fight with me. I don't know if it was because of the face of which lady in the palace barely entered the selection, what's the fuss about. ”

Gao Huan didn't care.

Seeing that Gao Huan didn't pay attention to Ruo Yulou because of this, the guy also sighed, and then slowly withdrew.

Red Rhyme Inn.

"Gao Huan, this guy is still as arrogant as ever."

A pleasant voice sounded, melodious and tactful, making people intoxicated by its voice and unable to extricate themselves, just listening to the sound can make people feel that this is a stunning beauty.

A pair of delicate big eyes are very eye-catching, with a straight nose bridge, a slender figure, and clothes worn on her body that do not hide her sexy figure at all.

A pair of jade hands makes people can't help but want to play with it.

I saw that she was dressed beautifully, a green dress on her body made people feel as if she had descended from heaven, a seat of black hair casually draped behind her, and a jade bracelet on her wrist.

She is the shopkeeper of Liuli Palace-Shangguan Liuli.

But don't look at her as a woman, if anyone underestimates her, they will suffer a big loss.

She was the last person to fight with Gao Huan last year, and after she went back, she studied even harder, and this year she came to the imperial businessman.

Of course, she was chatting about Gao Huan at this time because she felt that Gao Huan was her biggest opponent this time, and she naturally wanted to understand the movements of her opponent.

"But this Ruoyu Lou is really not simple, I hope it won't hurt my good deeds, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

Shangguan Liuli clenched his fists and said.

She has been preparing for this imperial merchant for a year, and if anyone stops her at this moment, it is deliberately looking for death.

The day of running for the imperial merchant was approaching, and everyone rushed to the capital from all over the country.

Du Ruonan is better at this time, she doesn't have to run all the way, she has to live in an inn when she comes to the capital, she is in the capital, and the distance from the palace is also close, so she only has to worry about her own fabrics and embroidery styles.

Although she did not occupy the time, she did not know the imperial merchants very well like several people, and even knew them by heart, but she had her own advantages.

Living in the capital, this is a geographical advantage, with the support of the emperor, this is a people.

Although the emperor said that he would not face her, who knows what the emperor thinks in his heart?
