(Thank you 's~~ Huan Bao, brother Tai for the reward, thank you.) [].

Well, Cheng Yu, how is it good? ）

But now Lian Zining has dared to be sure that with these two wars, he has a place in the history books, but it is not enough!

This can be said to be the place where you started.

I heard that the capital was here, I got to know Dai Qinglan, and then I got to know Dai Zhangpu here, when the general flag of Shangchen Zi was here, it was here to form the Wuyi Army, and it was also here that I was ordered to go south to quell the rebellion, and I went to the north with the army, and it was also here.

This capital, the place where the soul haunts dreams!

Lian Zining's heart suddenly felt hot, how many people in this city are thinking about it by themselves? On that day, the head of the Xishen Acropolis, at the end of the road, almost died there, and after walking at this life-and-death juncture, he became more important to certain things.

Lian Zining asked Shi Dazhu to take these cavalry around the city and go directly to the Jingnan camp to rest, while he took Liu Sheng Zongyan and other close guards to enter Beijing directly from the north gate.

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, when foreign officials return to Beijing, especially those with high ranks, they must first go to see the emperor, if the emperor does not have time to see you, you have to live in the post house first, and then go home when you see the emperor. But now no one takes this seriously, there are officials with women in Beijing, and when they enter Kyoto, they go straight to their homes.

Lian Zining is naturally no exception.

Walking alley, even the backyard of the house, in the back garden.

Now September 27, in the future, it is almost November of the solar calendar, and the north is already full of autumn winds, and the land is golden.

The lush back garden of Lianfuli in summer has turned into a sea of golden yellow at this moment, and a bleak autumn wind rolls up, rolls up the yellow leaves on the trees, and sways in the air and circles for a while, and finally falls on the white stone paved path. In the small lotus pond, only the dead lotus remained, and the water level also dropped slightly, revealing white stones, which looked extremely deserted.

The sky was blue and blue, reflected in the water, and when a gust of wind came, it became a broken shadow.

However, the benefits of autumn are naturally very numerous, the sky is exceptionally clear, the air is exceptionally fresh, and it seems that seeing things has become a little clearer.

On an autumn afternoon, through the window lattice, the warm sunlight spills into the room, reflecting patches of light on the ground, illuminating the inside of the room.

There were many people standing in the flower hall, but everyone deliberately held their breath and didn't dare to make a single movement

There were about a dozen people standing here, all dressed in robes, hats, and a little pot-bellied, but with shrewd sparkles in their eyes.

At first glance, you can see that they are all businessmen.

They were talking to each other in whispers.

Suddenly, I heard a crisp voice say, "The eldest lady has arrived!" ”

These people all stood up straighter, and their waists were slightly bent, and they all looked at the position of the head.

The bead curtain leading to the back of the flower hall sounded, and a girl walked out, she was wearing a long skirt of snow-white Huxiang silk, with a goose-yellow plain jade belt tied around her waist, and a green forehead on her forehead. The jadeite is a fine glass ground, the water is excellent, and the look is clear, but in the middle of the forehead is a piece of yellow jade that is more rare than the jade. This one alone is worth 10,000 taels of silver.

This girl is Cheng Yu, but she has a straight face, and she is a little bit majestic.

She sat at the top of the seat, glanced around the crowd, and didn't have any opening words, so she simply said: "Everyone is here, let's pay the bill!" Shopkeeper Liu, you come first. ”…,

"Yes, Miss!"

A middle-aged man in his fifties who was a little fat stood up, he already had a few strands of gray hair on his sideburns, but his attitude towards Cheng Yu was respectful.

He copied out a thick account book from his sleeve, but he didn't open it, cleared his throat, and said: "Tell the eldest lady, from July to September of the fifty-first year of Zhengde, our Lian's chaebol, the seven grain and oil shops under the management of our Lian clan, cost a total of 159,637 taels for the purchase, 290,350 taels for the accounts, the total wages of the guys are 950 taels, the total loss of warehousing is 3,450 taels, a total of 3,500 taels for the soldiers and horses of Shuntianfu, and 78 taels for the heavy rain in July to renovate the shop. The cumulative expenditure was 167,615 taels, and the net profit was 122,735 taels. Now that all of them have been recorded, please send someone to check it. ”

Cheng Yu listened very carefully, she frowned, and asked, "Why is there more expenditure for these yamen this time?" And so much? ”

The shopkeeper Liu smiled: "Last year, we were originally in accordance with the rules on the street, and we would pay as much business as we wanted, and these three yamen, our specifications were one hundred taels per month, and it should be nine hundred taels in one quarter." Since the uncle sealed the six counties last year, we don't have to pay this money. Two months ago, when the news of the defeat of the Northern Expeditionary Army came back, some people from Shuntianfu urged the levy, saying that we owed money for eight months and asked for 800 taels, and then Jinyiwei was even more ruthless, asking for 3,000 taels, and 50% of the soldiers and horses asked for 1500 taels. No, a few days ago, the uncle defeated the Jurchens in Xishenwei, and the holy dragon Yan was happy, and he ordered a reward, and the news came. They all came to the door again and sent back a lot of the money, but a total of 3,500 taels said that they had already spent it, but they would not come back.

There was a bit of anger in his words, but there was also a hint of contempt and pride.

"A bunch of snobs!" Cheng Yu sneered: "Shopkeeper Liu, you will take someone to them when you catch up with Ming'er, how much they owe us, you will give me back if you don't have a penny." It doesn't matter what excuse they have, whether they spend it or divide it, they dare to cut meat from us, and I will let you spit it out as much as they eat! Give them a three-day deadline, and they say that they can't return it within three days, and they will do it themselves! ”

"Yes, Miss!" The shopkeeper Liu's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly responded, he smashed his mouth, and said with some worry: "Miss, we can't compete with them for a few thousand taels of silver, right?" These villains have offended them, but they are quite troublesome! ”

"It's not a matter of a lot of silver!" Cheng Yu waved his hand: "I don't care about this silver, it's a face!" My brother is now so scheming outside, defeating the Jurchens, being named Wu Yibo, and being named General Songhuajiang, we don't need to be polite with these snobs now. If you are angry at this time, it will make people feel weak and look down on us, I can't embarrass my brother! But do you get it? ”

After all, these people are all businessmen, and those who have only been in the eyes of money all their lives have narrowed their horizons, and they only know that the people do not fight with officials. At this time, after pondering, it took a little taste to taste, and now, it is not as usual. These yamen don't need us to stammer, but they have to stammer with us!

Drink, this business is done, happy!

Cheng Yu said again: "Shopkeeper Wang, you go on!" ”

"Yes, Miss."

"From July to September of the 51st year of Zhengde, the three supermarkets under his management spent a total of 561,570 taels on purchases, and 890,150 taels were recorded in the accounts......

Next is the big car shop, bookstore, cloth village, silk village, grange and other businesses run by the government, and the shopkeeper who manages each business comes forward to report the income and expenditure. Cheng Yu listened very carefully and asked some questions, all of which were to the point, showing a very keen business talent. …,

Almost an hour later, the shopkeepers finished reporting one by one, and they all retired, leaving only a thick stack of ledgers on the table next to them.

Cheng Yu's face was full of exhaustion, she supported her forehead with her arms, leaned back on the chair, closed her eyes and rested for a while.

The bead curtain flickered, and Yu Susu walked in, followed by a little maid, holding a tray in her hand, on which was placed tea and a few snacks.

Yu Susu said distressedly: "Seeing that you are tired, how can you rest in this realm?" Come, have a bite to eat, and go back to the house and lie down for a while. ”

He turned around and beckoned: "Shi Jian, you go down first, I will say a few thoughtful words to your master, and put this plate on the table." ”

The sword answered, put down the tray, and went out.

"You, I see that you have been meeting people day and night these days, asking about income, raising money, why are you so desperate?" Yu Susu sat down next to Cheng Yu, took her hand, and said with a slight annoyance.

"Sister Susu, I'm fine!" Cheng Yu stuffed a piece of snack in his mouth and said vaguely.

"Don't think I don't know, it's not because of him!" Yu Susu said angrily: "A few days ago, your sister-in-law who had not passed through the door came with news, saying that the Ministry of War had issued an official document to recruit him back to Beijing. Calculate now, it's almost time for a few days, you are in such a hurry to raise money, isn't it for his convenience? ”

"Okay, Sister Susu, I know the severity, don't be angry!" Cheng Yu swallowed the dim sum, took Yu Susu's hand and grinned: "My brother has made a great career now, and Cheng Yu is very proud of him in his heart!" A few days ago, Cheng Yu went to the grave of his father and mother, and told them that he would be very happy to come to them to know about the spring. I heard that now the imperial court has made my brother a general of Songhuajiang and expanded the army for him, you don't know his temperament, and it will cost a lot of money to do something! I don't have much ability to be a sister, so I can't drag my brother back! ”

"You, you! I have him in my heart! Yu Susu hated that iron could not become steel, nodded Chengyu's little nose, and said angrily: "He has made a great career, but he has not been at home year after year, and I don't know if he still remembers you as a sister in his heart?" It's really a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs, just like that Xu Xian......"

A sunny laugh sounded outside the flower hall: "Yo, Yu Da Shopkeeper, why are you idle and have nothing to do to provoke our brother and sister relationship?" ”

"Brother!" Cheng Yu Huo Ran stood up, and in an instant, he was already full of tears.
