After listening to Lin Daiyu's instructions, Jia Cong arranged the people who went to Heishan Village, and then came back to the three small flower halls with the plaque of "Furen Yude" hanging on the south side of the gate of Daguan Garden. ”

"Huh?!" Xue Baochai, Li Kun and others, everyone here, including Jia Baoyu, was puzzled.

Jia Cong: What medicine did you take wrong?

That's not your personality and style!

"If the secret recipe of soap, glass, and arsenic is leaked, it will be very bad for our future business, and at that time, several can be manufactured, and there will be no strange goods to live in, and without scarcity and monopoly, we can only do ordinary small shops." Among them, Xue Baoqin is more anxious, their Xue family is not one property, the big house and the second room have been separated early, so she can travel the world.

Now his brother Xue Zhen can lead the imperial business, and he can help with business, thanks to the various formulas given and researched by Jia Cong, she takes it very seriously.

"Soap and soap have been around for a long time, and it is only a matter of time before others imitate it, but glass and arsenic vanamin are not so simple, just to remove the bubbles of glass, I believe that there are few companies in the world that can do it." Jia Cong smiled confidently:

"Moreover, after arsenic vanamin, the glaze factory and glass technology that I have worked so hard to build cannot be in vain, and I am preparing to use these to produce glasses and glasses, and as for whether the glasses should be improved, I have to discuss with the imperial court. I didn't fully apply a lot of glass technology in the glass factory, because it was not my own son, and we had expanded our production workshops in Xixiaoshi and Ningrong Street, so I wasn't too careful. ”

"In addition, soap with Nanyang spices is almost exclusive to us, and I don't believe that there are a few others that have such channels and deep pockets."

As soon as Jia Cong finished speaking, even Xue Baochai, who had always been from a wealthy family, calm and well-informed, couldn't help but stare at the apricot eyes and exclaimed, "Glass? That's too extravagant, isn't it? I'm afraid it's too expensive, but no one buys it. Back then, Feng Yatou's glass kang screen was not owned by every family, and Ning Guofu still came here to borrow it. ”

"Even glass kang screens are bought, not to mention smaller and cheaper glasses? Isn't the favorite thing for scholars and wealthy businessmen to be elegant? What kind of grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, this glass must have a way, I see that the glass mirror also has some in our house. Jia Cong remembered that when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden for the second time, she broke into Yihong Courtyard drunk, and she was very surprised by the Western dressing mirror, and she mistakenly thought that the dressing mirror reflected herself was her in-laws. This shows that the dressing mirror shines more clearly and realistically than the bronze mirror, and the second also proves its scarcity and preciousness, when glass was not popular.

"Glass, I don't know what it's like to use it?" Jia Tanchun said longingly: "Brother Cong, hurry up and make it and send us a few!" ”

"We might as well go and have a look, right?" Jia Yingchun was very thoughtful.

"Of course." Jia Cong said with a smile: "There is an expanded workshop on Ningrong Street, and there is a direct road in Xifu, so I and the people in the mansion will accompany you, so it is not out of line." ”

"I'll take you to see it in two days."

Lin Daiyu looked at Jia Cong, then at Jia Baoyu, and sighed silently, Jia Baoyu is completely out of temper now, Jia Cong is already a veritable pillar of Jiafu, and now Jia Cong doesn't need anyone from Jiafu, but Jiafu needs him.

Now the Shi family, the Xue family, and Jia Cong are gradually tied up.

At the beginning, the most powerful and powerful Wang family had a weaker relationship with him.

However, everyone thinks that the Wang family and Jia Cong will still have a connection, because one of Jia Cong's mother-in-law, Aunt Xue, is the Wang family, and the second Mrs. Wang is still there, and all the properties of the Wang family in Jinling must still exist before they are wiped out.

Jia Cong is already the center of most of them, but will the Wang family put down their bodies and beg him?

Especially Wang Xifeng, how can the grievances and grievances between Feng Yatou and Jia Cong be clarified in a few words?

Originally, when Jia Cong returned to Jiafu, he should have asked the head of the whole clan to discuss the major affairs of the clan, but at this time, Caixia, Fei Pozi and Amber all came to say, and the two wives and the old lady said to let Jia Cong rest first, and when it came to the New Year's Festival, it would not be too late to negotiate again, and it would be good if there was no major incident.

……

Xinglong Street, Lin Zhixiao, Zhou Rui and his wife, Laiwang and his wife, and Leng Zixing, the owner of this room, returned from the court safe and sound, and after the sea trade made great profits and increased their shocking achievements, they were all dejected and shocked.

Lin Zhixiao's family was the first to leave: "According to the old body, everyone has dispersed, Cong'er is now a person we can't afford to offend, and we don't want to talk about such things anymore." ”

said that he pulled Lin Zhixiao away, this Lin Zhixiao's family was originally very powerful in Rongguo Mansion, and when he went to Yihong Courtyard to inspect, Jia Baoyu and the attackers had to be respectful, calling her "aunt", she could also teach Jia Baoyu a lesson, after Jia Congqing withdrew, she was originally very unconvinced.

"The daughter of the Lin family is doing things for Jia Cong, it is estimated that they are counting on her to support her in old age." Laiwang Road.

"Yes." Zhou Rui said: "We have worked hard for the house for half our lives in vain, and in the end we will become pawns for the masters to fight among themselves." ”

"Father-in-law, don't be discouraged, the ups and downs of this sea are the norm, we still have to contact Jia Yucun again, and give more gifts." Leng Zixing explained.

They went out for a walk in the market, and when they arrived at the area of Dexibianmen, they were heavily guarded, and the forbidden army and the internal army were densely packed, Leng Zixing asked what was the matter, and Cao Zongqi, who was patrolling and always corresponding, replied: "The largest warship and defender in the south, the silver that was personally brought in, the emperor personally came to pick it up, and the secretary of the military department also went to do it in person, do you say this is a big deal?" ”

"Make sure you can't make a mistake!"

They only saw the river warships coming in from a distance, and the largest warships, the river here, could not be opened, but those hundred warships and dense flintlock guns and artillery also made them stunned and speechless for a long time.

……

Jinling, treasure Tianhua, outstanding people, the circumference of the imperial city is ninety-six miles, the city gate is thirteen, the circumference of the outer city is one hundred and eighty miles, and the city gate is sixteen.

On this day, Jinling South City Dazhong Bridge to the west, from Huaiqing Bridge to the west of Wangmen Bridge in Sanshan Street to Sanshanmen, and north from Cangxiang to Yecheng, turn to the east, to the inner bridge Zhongzheng Street and stop.

Department stores gather, its material resources are many and the main is few, the city is full of people, and thousands of noisy among them.

The trade here is developed, and it is not very far from the master of Qinhuai, among which Zhen Baoyu, who visited and studied in the Jinling branch of Shanhai Bookstore, adapted to this kind of life, although the former brocade clothes and jade food lingered.

Soon someone outside the store got off the sedan chair, the guy reported that a noble person came, Zhen Baoyu was overjoyed, greeted out of the front store, and suddenly saw that the person who came was a female guest, with a golden step on the sideburns, with a maid and servant, the female guest was stunned for a long time when he saw him, and asked: "Are you ...... The shopkeeper here? ”

"Yes, for now." Zhen Baoyu thought for a while, and said in her heart: "Could it be that this woman can't take her eyes off me when she sees me plump and handsome?" ”

As soon as she said that, she hurriedly came in to take her to see the goods, and the female guest moved her eyes, Zhen Baoyu saw that she was slender, and the fly in the ointment was that her face was sickly, and the female guest took someone to pick up the goods and said: "Is the Beijing Shanhai Bookstore your head office?" Selling books and selling soap as well? ”

It turned out that she was here to buy soap, no wonder, Zhen Baoyu thought, this thing should be the most loved by women, Zhen Baoyu replied: "Exactly." ”

"Your mansion turned out to be the president's mansion of the Qincha Jinling Provincial Tiren Academy, is your surname Zhen?"

Zhen Baoyu was silent for a while, and said, "What is the guest's surname?" ”

"I'm from the Jinling Wang's family, and I want to talk to you about business."

"I can't do the big business, otherwise you can talk to Brother Jia Cong."

"Okay, I can, you write to him, I'll buy more."
