As soon as he received the silver ticket from Gao Jian, Han Xiao entered the palace to meet him.

Zhang Lingyang shook his head helplessly when he saw the silver ticket sent by Han Xiao, feeling bitter in his heart.

Originally, Zhang Lingyang still wanted to be lenient with the Gao family, but seeing this situation, Zhang Lingyang couldn't help but make up his mind.

Glancing at Han Xiao, Zhang Lingyang said, "You will take someone to the Gao Mansion now and raid the Gao family!" ”

"Wechen obeys!"

Han Xiao replied, and was about to turn around and leave the hall, but was stopped by Zhang Lingyang again, "Forget it, let's wait for Gao Pei to be buried before going to check it!" ”

Seeing that Zhang Lingyang had no other instructions, Han Xiao retired.

After Han Xiao left, Zhang Lingyang stayed in the Heart Cultivation Hall for another two hours, and it was not until evening that he walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Coming to the noble concubine's bedroom, Zhang Lingyang hesitated at the door for a long time before pushing open the door.

Everywhere you look, there is a lot of gloom in between.

Originally, the noble concubine's bedroom was the most lively place in the harem, but at this moment, in the courtyard of the noble concubine's bedroom, there was no trace of a human figure, and there was a faint dilapidated appearance.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Lingyang strode into the courtyard and pushed open the door of the dormitory, only to see the noble concubine sitting there alone, even her face a little older.

On one side, except for a big palace maid waiting beside him, he didn't see other palace maids and eunuchs.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Lingyang subconsciously frowned.

Although it is common to step on high and low things in the palace, Zhang Lingyang did not expect that the noble concubine would be so dilapidated so quickly.

When the palace maid who served the noble concubine saw Zhang Lingyang coming, she was overjoyed, made a salute, and wanted to go out to prepare tea for Zhang Lingyang.

But as soon as he stepped out of the gate of the dormitory, he stopped.

Since the noble concubine was confined to the dormitory, there has been no good tea here.

Now entertaining Zhang Lingyang, the noble concubine can't even get good tea?

The palace maid couldn't help but feel embarrassed, grabbed Sun Sheng's sleeve, and explained the situation here.

Sun Sheng gave the palace maid a slightly calm expression, and said, "What kind of tea have you drunk these days, just bring it over!" ”

The palace maid was still hesitant, but after thinking about the current situation here, she gritted her teeth, and finally made up her mind, bowed to Sun Shengfu, and then left.

In the dormitory, Zhang Lingyang sat down beside Concubine Gao, opened his mouth, and when the words came to his mouth, it could be seen that Concubine Gao's face was always light, and the words that came to her mouth were still not spoken.

The room fell silent for a while.

At this time, the palace maid walked in with two cups of tea.

Zhang Lingyang took one and took a sip, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although Zhang Lingyang doesn't know how to taste tea, in the past few years, his mouth has already been raised, and as soon as the tea is in his mouth, whether it is good or bad, Zhang Lingyang can still taste it.

Coupled with the cold room, Zhang Lingyang already has an intuitive understanding of the current life of the noble concubine.

In the end, Zhang Lingyang still spoke: "In two days, it will be the day of Gao Pei's burial, you can go out of the palace to pay respects!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Concubine Gao's tone was still very cold.

Zhang Lingyang touched his nose and said, "Also, Han'er will still be raised by you in the future!" ”

"......" Concubine Gao's face finally became a little moved, and she opened her mouth to say something grateful, but in the end she didn't say anything.

"I'll go first!" Zhang Lingyang got up and left the noble concubine's bedroom without looking back.

Just a few steps out of the palace gate, Zhang Lingyang looked back at Sun Sheng, and said lightly: "The eunuchs and palace maids who left the concubine here are all killed, and the eunuchs who are responsible for the food and clothing of the concubines are also pulled out and killed!" ”

"Slaves obey!"

……

In March, the warbler flies and the grass grows.

On this day, the English envoy Wilson came to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty again.

This time, in addition to a large number of machinery and equipment, Wilson also brought thousands of experts, scholars and skilled workers.

For Wilson's visit, Zhang Lingyang welcomed it very well.

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhang Lingyang met with Wilson.

As always, Wilson sent a handwritten letter from the Queen of England and asked Zhang Lingyang to purchase a batch of pills for the treatment of the Black Death.

Zhang Lingyang agreed without thinking about it.

After knowing the news that the Black Death was raging in Europe, Zhang Lingyang had already issued an order to plant relevant medicinal materials in several imperial villages.

Nowadays, the cost of medicinal materials has been compressed to an extremely low level.

From this, Zhang Lingyang's benefits are also dozens of times.

But these Wilson didn't know it, and still purchased a batch of pills at the price of one or two pieces of silver.

Besides, even though Wilson knew that the cost of these pills was extremely low, he had to purchase them.

Now, because of these pills, the current cabinet of England has been questioned by citizens.

If these pills are not delivered back to England in time, it is only a matter of time before the cabinet falls.

This time, Wilson was accompanied by dozens of English merchants.

In addition to purchasing pills, they also had to purchase large quantities of luxury goods such as silk, tea, and porcelain.

As for the price?

Naturally the same as last time.

Silk, tea, porcelain, these three kinds of five products, the Great Zhou was in a monopoly position, Wilson and others naturally had no bargaining qualifications.

Because of this, Da Zhou earned another sum of silver.

After careful calculation, although Da Zhou purchased a large number of machinery from Europe and introduced thousands of scholars and technicians, in the end, Da Zhou had earned millions of taels of silver.

Actually, this situation is not surprising.

The machinery produced in Europe now is actually not too valuable.

As for those experts, scholars, and skilled workers, Wilson is not a human trafficker, but only earns an intermediary fee from it, and Da Zhou naturally did not spend much money.

Besides, the price of population is very low in this era.

But why did Wilson bring thousands of people from thousands of miles instead of dozens of ships of goods?

In fact, in the final analysis, it is the Great Zhou that does not have much demand for European goods.

If you carefully calculate the accounts, it is not difficult to find that in the nearly 200 years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the European merchant ships sent the most to the Great Zhou not others, but gold and silver.

It can even be said that more than half of the gold and silver mined in Europe in the Americas flowed into the pockets of the Great Zhou, how could the Great Zhou not be rich?

Naturally, the European powers and economists from various countries were aware of this and introduced a number of policies to restrict the flow of gold and silver into the Great Zhou.

But in the face of huge profits, European merchants still kept going back and forth between Da Zhou and Europe.

Over time, by now, these policies have become a piece of waste paper, and they have no effect at all......
