The status of Shuntianfu Yin is actually quite prominent. [Ran^Text^Library] []

Fu Yin is two orders higher than the ordinary prefect's yamen, and he is a member of the court of the third grade, and even the local governor cannot manage the Shuntian Mansion Yin.

However, for the officials in the capital, they are not afraid of this Lord Yin. But it is also because there are too many high-ranking officials in the capital, and although the remaining officials of the six science corridors are all seven-grade petty officials, they don't even dare to provoke the first assistant of the cabinet.

There is no big difference between today and the past, and after Lord Yin Qian of Shuntian Mansion came back from the early dynasty, he stayed in the Yamen study and sat idle, waiting for something to be dealt with.

It's just that the capital has been really safe in recent years, and there are Jinyi guards who maintain the stability of the capital, but it makes him, the Shuntian Mansion Yin Qing, too idle, except for being busy when collecting taxes every year, most of the weekdays are sitting in the yamen study.

Flipping through the scroll in his hand, he was really a little tired, so he was about to go out for a walk, when he suddenly heard a voice outside the door: "Master...... The Li account room of the smoking building asks to see ......"

"A little bookkeeper wants to see the old man?" Lord Qian is also gentle on weekdays, and in the hearts of the merchants and people in the capital, he is still a relatively amiable official.

It's just that I'm really a little bored in my heart today, probably because the tigress at home wants to buy jewelry and rouge gouache, and the little money on hand is not enough.

Or in this hot summer, he can't even afford an ice house in his home, and it is said that the governor of Jiangxi, Lord Han, has built three ice houses in his home, but they are all very exquisite.

The capital is like a tiger's den in Longtan, Lord Qian can't do things too much, firstly, for better promotion, but secondly, it is still for the meager money, and it seems that it is not too much to be an official for thousands of miles just for money.

It is indeed easy to be promoted in the capital, and those colleagues who are far away from the capital are envious of him for being close to the emperor, and his prominent position as the Yin of Shuntian Mansion is really envious.

It's just that Lord Qian, who is in this position, is even more envious of those officials who are far away from the emperor of the mountain, and he doesn't have much ambition in life. As long as you live this life in peace, it is enough for you to have more money for your expenses.

It's just that because of this tranquility, he went all the way smoothly, and he got to where he is today, which is really helpless.

There were all kinds of trivial things today, so I still lost a little temper, but I quickly returned to normal. After pondering for a while, he realized that the Li bookkeeper was not an ordinary restaurant bookkeeper.

Maybe Li Quan is really ordinary. But the smoke building is still not ordinary after all, even if there is no Liu Hanyan in the building, but someone was in this building back then, and the impact is still there.

Lord Qian is not amazed by Shen Wuyan's literary and martial arts, in his eyes, Shen Wuyan's literary talents and poetry are all bullshit, what Wang Shizhen and Li Panlong have to do with him, he only knows that it is the king to mix up with Zhishi in an safe and stable way.

If you want to do that, you have to make a lot of friends, up to the Cabinet Fellows. Down to these officials in the imperial history, in short, everything is done without doing anything, which is the best action.

There are still many officials like this in the capital, and perhaps more of them are not as self-motivated as Lord Qian, after all, he still loves money, although he is more cautious, he still does not have a lot of silver. There is always something to say in my heart.

Master Qian had actually seen Shen Wuyan, and he knew that this Mr. Shen had spent a lot of money in the capital a few years ago, and he had thrown hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the six departments in one day, and he was really a generous person.

He even suspected that Shen Wuyan's current official position was bought from the emperor for money, although his official position was not large. But there are also all kinds of oil and water, and I must have reaped a lot of benefits.

But these are all later words, today this Li Quan came to find himself, thinking that it was for the sake of the smoke building, most of these restaurants and teahouses in the capital have backgrounds, but they are not the adults of the six ministries, or the cabinet scholars.

Although Shuntianfu Yin is not a petty official. Even in many cases, things in the capital have to be done by him, but these businessmen are good friends in person, and in essence, they don't give much benefit.

However, there is much better than nothing after all, and he guesses that Li Quan is here today for this reason, so he is still excited, if he can get involved with Shen Wuyan through Li Quan, it is also a beautiful thing.

After simply tidying up his clothes, Master Qian instructed Li Quan to wait in the side hall, and he hung Li Quan for a while before passing. According to Lord Qian, this is called wanting to get away with it.

It's just that after walking to the side hall, seeing Li Quan's heavy attitude, he suddenly felt a little disappointed, and looked at the other party left and right without any gifts, and the sense of disappointment in his heart became a little stronger.

It's just that he has always mastered that smile, so he always has a smile on his face and smiles: "Mr. Li...... I don't know what happened to the Yamen today? ”

Although Li Quan said that he was just lifting people, he was older than Lord Qian, and Mr. Cheng was also said in the past, but Li Quan still returned the courtesy respectfully, which was also a matter of courtesy, he said: "I have seen Lord Qian......"

Lord Qian nodded with satisfaction, then sat down and said, "Mr. Li is not more polite......

Li Quan nodded slightly, then sat down at the signal of Lord Qian, and then said, "I have always wanted to come and see Lord Qian...... It's just that I'm too busy, so I finally found time to come over today......"

Master Qian smiled faintly, and then said: "Mr. Li has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say it......

In fact, he was dissatisfied in his words, but his tone was very gentle, which made Li Quan a little surprised, and he couldn't help but sigh that this Lord Qian was really an old man in the officialdom and had some skills.

Before Li Quan could speak, Master Qian suddenly said, "Scholars have always been cheap businessmen...... But Emperor Taizu said at that time that industry and commerce are all fundamental...... The official thinks that Mr. Li has given up writing and engaging in business, and he is really generous. ”

What Master Qian said is also true, Li Quan was originally a person, and it stands to reason that he still has the qualifications to be an official, although the future is not very clear, it is better than business.

At this time, although Lord Qian's words were just casually mentioned, they also reminded Li Quan of another person.

When I came to the capital, I was disheartened when I learned that I was not on the list, so I threw all the remaining silver in the smoke building, but I met the scholar, and after a brief conversation, he stayed in the restaurant in a daze.

Now I think about it, but it's been a year.

Li Quan smiled, and then said: "Actually, there are no other major events...... I heard that Shuntianfu is going to have a banquet for this year's new science and technology scholars in recent days...... So I want to provide the yamen with 10,000 taels of fine tea......"

The banquet for the new science and technology is actually a new trick this year, but it is also very sensational, and the time is set for three days later, and most of the literati in the capital have heard of it.

"10,000 taels of silver......" Lord Qian couldn't help frowning, the tea court is actually a wave of silver, but it doesn't have so much budget, it's really a bit much.

Li Quan looked at Lord Qian, who was frowning, and immediately laughed, and said, "Actually, I also came from the Bake Teahouse when I woke up...... They had just come to the capital from Suzhou to open a teahouse, and after learning of this yesterday, they planned to donate 10,000 taels of silver of tea to the imperial court...... You see? ”

"Donate?" Lord Qian's heart suddenly rejoiced, if this silver was donated, then naturally he would save these thousands of taels of silver, and these silver could flow into his pocket naturally.

Before he could ask, Li Quan said again: "It's just that there are some questions...... The shopkeeper of the teahouse did not want people to think that the tea was given to the yamen for free, but he was suspected of bribery...... So...... I hope that the adults will declare that they are all purchased at the original price......"

This is what Lord Qian is looking forward to, so that once he takes the silver under himself, he will have no worries.

He didn't care where the Xingbake Teahouse came from, he only knew that he was about to get a few thousand taels of silver for nothing, just to build a few ice houses for his family, in this hot summer, it was really comfortable.

However, he couldn't be too eager, his face was still calm, with a smile on his face, and he said lightly: "This matter...... Not bad...... That's it......"

Li Quan looked bitter and sighed again: "The shopkeeper of the teahouse also has some requirements...... He hopes to use the tea utensils provided by the tea house on the occasion of the banquet...... That's how you can drink the taste of that tea......"

"No problem." Lord Qian agreed, but there was no need to hesitate.

Li Quan was stunned, this fact was a bit of a loss, but since it was Shen Wuyan's order, he didn't want to ask more, but this was really a lot worse than the previous move.

After all, 10,000 taels of tea, even if the smoke building is now a month, I am afraid it will be difficult to earn 10,000 taels of silver, which is really not a small amount.

After agreeing on this matter, Li Quan hurriedly left the Shuntian Mansion.

At this time, it was already dark, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he was greeted by a carriage, but it was Wang Tian who came with Shen Wuyan, so he got into the carriage.

After briefly explaining what he had done today, he didn't have time to go home, so he hurriedly walked towards the kiln in the south of the city.

Today's private kiln technology is already extremely good, compared with the official kiln of the Song Dynasty, it is not inferior to the slightest, but the capital is not as good as Jingdezhen in Jiangxi after all, and the quality is still better.

But this time I didn't come for porcelain, so I didn't pay attention to that.

The carriage stopped in front of a fairly large bunk, and the three of them got out of the carriage together.

The shopkeeper of the kiln was a chubby middle-aged man, and when he saw Shen Wuyan coming from a distance, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Shen Wuyan hugged his fist slightly towards the fat shopkeeper, and said, "There are a few drawings here...... So do it......"

The fat shopkeeper took Shen Wuyan's drawings, couldn't help frowning, and said curiously: "Sir, this glaze ...... Something seems wrong......"

Hearing the fat shopkeeper's doubts, Li Quan also hurriedly stepped forward to look, but it was some tea sets, but they were not like the landscape flowers and grass patterns on ordinary tea sets, but they were some words and very strong and conspicuous colors.

And at the bottom of that cup, there is also a very conspicuous three words of awakening eight guests, which is really abrupt. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
