I knew that I would be caught by the old man and hurt my feet, but now it's okay, Zheng'er is the grandson of his grandson, and he is also my son, and I, who is an old man, can't run away if I want to. He laughed twice, and said helplessly: "What is intolerable, is it so serious?" Zheng'er is my son, of course I have to help him! But it would be too difficult to put such a heavy burden on my shoulders! ”

Qin Xian'er chuckled and said, "Don't worry, my father has already arranged it, Xu Wei, Luo Min, Li Tai, Emperor Shi and others will do their best to assist Zheng'er." Coupled with my sister and you, Bao Zhun taught Zhao Zheng who was a civil attack and martial arts. ”

The people who manage the money, the people, and the soldiers, all of them have an inextricable relationship with Lin San, which is the solid foundation of the country, and the old man calculates everything to death, so that Lin Wanrong has to admire.

He nodded very seriously: "Okay, good, I'm not afraid of so many people!" ”

Miss Qin thought about it, but she instantly saw through his intentions, and said with a smile: "What are the many people, you want to take this opportunity to be lazy and escape, right?" ”

"How come," he hurriedly snorted, hugged Qin Xian'er into his arms, blew hot air on the root of her ear, and tempted: "Xian'er little girl, aren't you going to give birth to a son?" Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high, it is a good time to take seeds, what are we waiting for! ”

"Xianggong, I also want to give birth to two at a time!"

"Uh-this, let's talk about it, let's talk about it-Wow, Xian'er, you're such a hardworking person, you're starting to undress me so soon!"

The Lin family added two little sons overnight, and the eldest son, Zhao Zheng, was ordered by the emperor to the world. Qin Ci is the grandson of Emperor Dahua. Inner meaning. Everyone in the world understands. It's a big deal for a while. The congratulatory crowd broke the lintel of the Lin family. The flowing water banquet lasted for seven days and seven nights.

Fortunately, Mrs. Qiaoqiao opened a restaurant, and the food was immortal and delicious. Go a long way. Work starts day and night, but it is also taken care of. General Lin was still a little distressed about the silver, and when he went to the account place, Ning'er gave him the congratulatory gift account book. His eyes widened suddenly. happily hugged Miss Luo and kissed her: "Good Ning'er." Birth of a son. Hurry up and give birth to a son. We can make a fortune with this! ”

Three days later. Li Tai's army returned to the capital. The emperor opened the gate of victory and went ten miles out of the city to greet him personally. The soldiers of the northern land have unlimited scenery. Wait until I hear about the Lin family's happy event on earth. Everyone was even more excited, and they all rushed into the door to congratulate General Lin. This time life and death brothers meet. It's even more drowsy. Emptied the Lin family's wine cellar!

The wedding feast lasted dozens of days before it gradually dispersed. Lin Wanrong tosses every day. It was very tired, too. Finally, after the banquet, the guests took advantage of their leisure to drink tea and rest in the garden, amuse the children, and by the way, they had a profound discussion with the ladies on the issue of having a boy and a girl. The atmosphere was very warm.

"Big brother, is it really up to men to decide to give birth to boys and girls?" Qiaoqiao lowered her voice and shyly. asked cautiously.

The eldest brother hugged Lin Erlang triumphantly and shook it, and pecked Qiaoqiao's little face by the way: "Of course." When did Big Brother lie to you? The initiative in giving birth to children is all in the hands of men! But be warned. I don't have a patriarchal attitude, I like both my son and my daughter. You can rest assured and be bold! ”

Miss Luo smiled and looked at him charmingly, as if water could drip from her eyes. I think of this girl's hotness last night. When he took a bath, he had already jumped into his bucket. Lin Wanrong's heart fluttered. Sao smiled: "Ning'er." What do you want to have a baby? The position of the auxiliary ground is up to you! ”

Luo Ning blinked and said shyly: "It's all up to you to give birth to boys and girls, and people are not your opponents, and it's not how to get a big brother." So how do you get it?! ”

The ladies in the garden were all passers-by, and their faces were hot when they heard it. Sneered chuckles. But the eldest lady couldn't help it. With a red face, he twisted his arm fiercely: "Don't talk nonsense!" ”

It's here. Only the two young ladies of the Xiao family have not yet passed the door. Skinned naturally thinner. Lin Wanrong grinned and took Yuruo's hand: "Miss, what did you think about the latest lichen I told you about a few days ago?!" ”

Xiao Yuruo nodded, took out a Bojuan from his arms and handed it to him: "Look at it." Is that what it looks like? ”

Lin Wanrong glanced twice, only to see the outline of a long skirt carefully traced on the paper. The whole body is white and vivid. That day, he only said a few words and drew a sketch casually, and the eldest lady actually followed this clue and described the formula, which was really amazing.

"What's wrong, isn't it?" Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Xiao Yuruo was worried. Hurriedly asked softly.

Lin Wanrong shook her head with a smile: "It's not wrong, it's too right!" Miss. It's not me complimenting you, you're really a genius! ”

The man snapped his ass. It's the ultimate realm! The eldest lady's face was flushed. Rejoiced in his heart, and secretly held his hand. Gently stroked it in the palm of his hand. made Lin Sanxin's heart crispy.

"Still, there's a little bit of a flaw." He leaned into the crystal earlobe of the eldest lady and said unhurriedly.

Xiao Yuruo's expression tightened: "Where, where is there a flaw?!" ”

He smiled and made a few strokes on the chest of the long skirt: "Here, the chest, it should be lowered, well, the lower the better!" ”

The eldest lady suddenly blushed: "How can this be done?" Cut like this, what woman would dare to wear it? You nasty bitch! ”

"What are you afraid of, this garment was made for you, so I only wore it for me, a nasty ghost." Lin Wanrong breathed hot air in her ear and said with a grin: "Didn't you ask me what the name of this dress is?" ”

Xiao Yuruo's heart trembled, her whole body was soft, and she nodded weakly.

"It's called a wedding dress!!" He suddenly kissed her earlobe, and said, "I don't know if you are willing to do it, Miss, are you willing to do it, or are you willing to do it?" ”

"I'm not going to do it!" Xiao Yuruo sighed, her face was red, her ears were red, she shyly threw her small fist, and hurriedly smashed it into his chest, and when it fell on him, it was already silent.

Lin Wanrong laughed proudly, and Xian'er Luo Ning and the others were also in a hurry to come up, and after looking at the pattern a few times, they were immediately overjoyed, and they all turned a blind eye to the suggestion to open their minds lower. There was even some snickering. Anyway, I only wear it for this

If a lewd ghost looks at the ground, he will be fascinated to death!

See him smile so treacherously. The eldest lady blushed for a long time before she mustered up the courage and whispered, "Is this material?" Of course, we can weave it! No problem with handwork! It's just a little longer! How many pieces are you going to make? ”

How many pieces to make? He snorted twice, but he didn't dare to say anything. This is the top secret of the Lin family, and it cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Seeing his hesitant appearance, Qin Xian'er snorted: "To make a few pieces, I'm afraid he won't be able to count them himself!" Sister Yuruo, you can weave more of this material, be prepared, it's not difficult to do it again! Who knows how many small plots he raised in the Turks ?! ”

Qiaoqiao and Yushuang giggled. Regarding the affairs of the Golden Knife Khan and Lin Sandi, the storytelling in the teahouse has already been spitting and flying, and the tea guests are even more relishing, what arrows cut the lover, the snow in June, and the red face and white hair. There are as many as twenty or thirty local versions in the market, and the more they spread, the more gods they become. The friendship between the two of them was described to the earth-shattering ghosts and gods. This kind of innocuous affair not only did not damage General Lin's majesty, but also attracted more admiration and envy, pushing his prestige to the peak.

Ning Er grinned and said, "Before the eldest brother left, my sister warned him. Don't bring a bearded woman back! It's good for now, and he promised that he did. But we left our hearts in the grassland, we don't gain more than we lose! ”

Everyone laughed and laughed, annoyed, but few people were really angry. Curled up for a few days, he saw a deep scar on his chest. knows what kind of pain, sorrow and joy he went through with the Golden Sword Khan. It's too late to feel distressed, so how can you bear to blame him?

Lin Wanrong laughed dryly, her expression was embarrassed, Qingxuan had only been confined for more than ten days. Regarding Yujia's matter, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he was embarrassed to mention it to her.

"Wow, wow!" Lin Erlang seemed to understand his father's thoughts, and suddenly cried loudly. Don relieved him. Zhao Zheng was not far behind, and the two children cried each other. Beat these mothers to the ground and messed up. Hug the ground, coax and coax. I don't have the heart to ask anymore.

Erlang's father suddenly burst into tears of gratitude: My son is still the most considerate!

"Lin San, Lin San!" An anxious voice came from the door, and a figure rushed in.

"This way, this way!" Lin Wanrong smiled and beckoned: "Young master, come here, eat osmanthus cake!" ”

Guo Wuchang rushed to him in a few steps and shook his head hurriedly: "No, don't eat it!" Lin, Lin San, there is a Westerner who wants to see you and found us in the shop! ”

Westerners looking for me?! Lin Wanrong was also taken aback: "Who?" What is your name? Where are the people?! ”

The young master said shyly: "His Western language is too fast, I didn't hear it clearly for a while, I don't know what his name is!" But I brought him to you, and he's waiting outside the door! ”

I didn't hear it clearly, but the young master really has my demeanor! Lin Wanrong was overjoyed and hurriedly waved her hand: "Hurry up and bring the ghost guy, oh no, invite that Western guy in!" ”

When the Westerner entered the garden, he saw him at a glance, and immediately beckoned excitedly: "Harrow, Mistolin, Harrow!" ”

"This Westerner is a little familiar!" Xiao Yuruo frowned.

Lin Wanrong stared at it for a long time, then suddenly jumped up and said, "Tavoni, is it you?" ”

The ghost guy nodded one after another, and ran over quickly: "It's me, it's me, Missolin, long time no see, how are you?" ”

The eldest lady blinked and was overjoyed: "I remember, this is the French man we met when we participated in the Chamber of Commerce in Hangzhou, named Tavoni, who sells diamonds!" ”

Seeing this Tavoni, a lot of past events came to mind, the vicious fight on the ground in the restaurant, the smoke and rain by the West Lake, and the continuous cutting of the red line, the eldest lady suddenly had infinite joy in her heart, and couldn't help but secretly look at Lin San, but saw that the wicked man was smiling and winking at herself, obviously thinking of a place with her.

The eldest lady was warm in her heart, and she held his hand fiercely, and tears blurred her eyes with joy and yearning.

"Hi Tavoni, I haven't seen you for nearly a year, you're getting more and more handsome, I can barely recognize you, haha!" Lin Wanrong stepped forward, spoke broken English, and warmly hugged the French.

Tavoni was imprisoned by Tao Dongcheng last time, and he was extremely embarrassed, and he used a lot of diamonds to Lin San to escape with his hand. This time, it was majestic and radiant, no wonder the eldest lady and Lin San didn't recognize it!

Tavoni excitedly said, "Mistolin, I've finally found you!" I heard that you became the governor of the country and gave birth to twin sons, which is really gratifying! ”

"Where, where, it's so-so!" Lin Wanrong grinned and said, "Tavoni, when did you arrive in the capital?" Why didn't you come to me earlier?! ”

The French shook their heads: "I brought four big ships from France this time and went directly to the port of Shandong. It has been several days since I came to the capital from there. It's just that no one can understand me! Fortunately, I remember that you worked in a cloth shop, and I saw your portrait in the old store of the Xiao family in the capital. That's when I saw you! ”

This old boy must have made a lot of money selling silk tea last time, so he will revisit the old place, and he also brought four big ships, and his appetite is not small! He knew that I was a commander, and he was so anxious to find me, maybe he had something to ask me. Lin Wanrong grinned and nodded: "Tavoni, thank you for your hospitality!" Have a seat. Have a seat! ”

Tavoni didn't sit down, glanced around a few times, and suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Lin, are these your wives?" My God. It's so beautiful! Tavoni's greetings to the ladies! ”

He leaned down to take her hand and kiss the back of her hand. Qiaoqiao was startled, her face was red, and she hurriedly hid behind her eldest brother.

Lin Wanrong patted Xiao Nizi's weak shoulder and said with a smile: "Tavoni, you and I have different customs. These etiquettes are waived! Lest the next time I go to France, I will have to hug your wife and kiss you for half a day! ”

The French smiled awkwardly. His eyes fell on Xiao Yuruo, and he said strangely: "Lin, is this also your wife?" God, I remember the last time I saw her, she was your master! The master becomes a lady. I don't know what kind of means you use. I really envy your good luck! ”

The eldest lady couldn't understand English, but when she saw the ghost staring at her,

couldn't help but pull Lin San and said curiously: "What did he say?!" ”

"Oh, he praised us as a match made in heaven. Congratulations on the early birth of a precious son! ”

The eldest lady snorted softly. His face was flushed, and he was ashamed and happy.

Wait until tea is served. Take a few sips. Lin Wanrong sighed beautifully: "Brother Tower, why did you come to the capital this time?!" ”

Tavoni said loudly: "Lin, I am on a mission this time on behalf of His Majesty Louis. He sent an envoy to Dahua to establish friendly diplomatic relations between the two countries. And open a trade channel! ”

Yo ho, this old boy has been promoted. From diamond dealer to diplomat? What is the mission of His Majesty Louis, I'm afraid that you all have taken a fancy to my Dahuadi silk tea and porcelain, and want to pull it back to make money, right?

Lin smiled and nodded: "Establish diplomatic relations and open trade?" Well, that's good! You should have met His Majesty the Emperor of our country, right? ”

Tavoni shook his head a little disappointed: "I arrived in your country, there is no translator, and there are very few people who can understand my speech!" Visited the city halls in various parts of your country. They blamed each other, and none of them dared to recommend me to His Majesty the Emperor! ”

So you kid came to me? Lin Wanrong smiled. Trade and trade matters. Which yamen dares to call the shots? It's you yourself who didn't understand my Dahua national conditions, who can blame you?

Seeing Mistolin silent. Tavoni hurriedly said, "Lin, I've found out all this time. I heard that you married His Majesty the Emperor and gave birth to twin sons. His Majesty the Emperor has great trust in you. It is a matter of diplomatic relations between your two countries, please help me and introduce me to the emperor of your country! ”

France and Dahua were thousands of miles apart, and under the guise of diplomatic relations, they were just to sell more tea, silk, and daily necessities to go back to Europe to earn gold coins.

"Is this—" Lin frowned, looking embarrassed!

Seeing him frowning, Tavoni was suddenly a little anxious, and hurriedly took out a wooden box from his side and handed it to him: "Lin, look! ”

As soon as the box was opened, the room suddenly became brilliant and dazzling, and the eyes of the people who took care of it were dazzled. It contains dozens of jadeite diamonds, all of which are sparkling and full of alluring.

This is not the last time a defective product was found on Tavoni, but the largest, purest and brightest South African diamond, which is rare in the world. Lin Wanrong has been a human being for two lifetimes, but he has never seen such a large diamond. He couldn't help but reach out his hand, his eyes widened, and his hands began to tremble as he stroked the delicate brittle diamond.

This is the biggest and brightest, reserved for the little sister of the crescent moon! The one next to it is as big and bright as it is, leave it for Qingxuan! This is the fairy land, this one is for the fox sister, Qiaoqiao, Xian'er, Ning'er...... He counted for a long time, drooling, and in the blink of an eye, he distributed the diamond!

"Lin, Lin—" Tavoni screamed a few times, jolting him out of his dream.

Lin Wanrong's heart was tickled like a cat's scratch, and she resisted the temptation to stuff the box back into the hands of the French. Reserved, he said, "Tavoni, what do you mean by showing me this?" These diamonds, which you French people regard as treasures, cannot be sold for a good price in our Dahua. You saw it last time, too! ”

I didn't expect Lin to be so upright! Tavoni was anxious. Hurriedly stuffed the box into his arms: "It can't be sold for a good price, but this is a gift from His Majesty Louis to you, how can it be calculated in gold coins!" ”

"It's okay, you can't just accept gifts. Let's be here first! Mistolin was unmoved. Set the little box on the table. The smile is silent.

The French are really in a hurry. Tavoni gritted his teeth. I glanced around a few times. Carrying the ladies behind his back, he lowered his voice and said, "Lin, do you remember what you said to me last time?" I'm here this time. In addition to diamonds, His Majesty Louis also specially asked me to bring you two of the most beautiful ** in France! They take a milk bath every day, tsk. The skin is as smooth as your splendid silk! One of them is still our queen's sister. Even His Majesty Louis didn't dare to move! ”

This old pervert. How dare you seduce me with a beautiful woman! Lin Wanrong pursed her lips disdainfully, but her heart jumped straight in anger: "Brother Tower." Don't be like this, I'm actually a very upright person! Oh. Is your queen's sister beautiful? ”

"Legend has it that His Majesty Louis saw her. I regret that the queen was sealed early. Do you say she's pretty? Tavoni smiled mysteriously and patted the small bag in his hand: "I bought a mansion in Beijing. These two ** are waiting for you inside! Here are the keys and the contract, both with your name written on them. Beauty and real estate, it's all yours, it's nothing to do with us! ”

He put the key together with the box containing the diamonds, and looked at him eagerly. As if waiting for an answer.

Lin Wanrong laughed a few times. Shaking his head, he said, "Tavoni, rely on our friendship." What kind of bribery and gift-giving are you doing? That's pure contempt for me! It's not that I don't help, it's really that the emperor of my country is wise and wise, a hundred times better than me, what do you and your majesty Louis think in your hearts. Even I can see it, isn't his old man still clear? You want to trade with us. Isn't it good to make a lot of money selling our cheapest goods to Europe? ”

The French hesitated. I'm embarrassed to speak.

"Actually, I can say two words in front of the emperor, it's not impossible to trade! But that money can't make you all the money, can you? That's all the blood and sweat of our Dahua people, and you will earn hundreds of times as soon as you change hands, of course we are unbalanced in our hearts! Therefore, we are going to impose foreign trade tariffs on your purchasing ships to subsidize our people! ”

"Tariffs? How much do you charge?! Tavoni stood up in fright.

"This depends on your land cost and surplus, and the specific tax amount is agreed by both parties!" Lin Wanrong grinned and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry." Our aim is mutual benefit and win-win. We will never treat the people of Dahuadi badly, of course. I won't let you and His Majesty Louis lose money. Otherwise. Who's going to do business with us? Ha ha! ”

Tavoni suddenly understood that France wanted to do business with Dahua. It is necessary to give back to Dahua the windfall profits obtained by the caravan from the resale of Dahua's goods in proportion. There are still gold coins to be made in this business, but it is not as lucrative as it used to be, and the shrewd Chinese have clearly realized the local business opportunities.

Tavo

Ni pondered for a while, nodded and smiled bitterly: "Lin, if you have you in your country, you will definitely not eat it!" As you said, Dahua's goods, plus the French caravans, this is a reciprocal trade, and it is acceptable to collect tariffs, but you can't let us lose money, otherwise, no one will want to trade with you! ”

"That's natural!" Lin Wanrong laughed: "I will definitely let you earn it, so that you and His Majesty Louis will have energy!" ”

"Then now can you introduce His Majesty the Emperor to me?!"

"Oh, yes, but I've been interested in European culture lately! I want to send a few people to France to visit and inspect mechanical Seiko and the like, about 30 people a year, and come back every three or five years! Is it convenient for you to arrange a reception over there?! ”

"There's no problem with that, I have a shipyard and a machine shop at home. But the cost—"

"I'll pay for it myself, oh, they'll definitely go to see the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, and bring tourism revenue to France by the way!"

At that time, Tavoni only saw Dahua's exquisite porcelain and silk, and had not yet realized what Dahua lacked.

"By the way, Brother Tower, did you bring four big ships, all of them ironclad ships? Are there any cannons, muskets, or anything like that? I want to go to the sea in a few days, and maybe I will go to Goryeo with me. It's just that I don't have a suitable ship at hand for a while, and I want to buy one from you! ”

I've seen ripping off the ground. But I've never seen it so upright and bright! For that reciprocal trade, for the gold coins. Tavoni gritted his teeth: "Lin." What do you say to buy, I'll give you one, these boats are my latest products in France. Each ship was equipped with four guns and ten muskets. It's all about protecting against pirates. ”

Protected from pirates. But they didn't guard against me, a land bandit! Lin Wanrong said shyly: "Brother Tower, how embarrassing is that." I'd better pay for it, so as not to be reported for corruption and bribery! Ten taels of silver to buy a fully equipped ship, is it enough? I'll buy the smallest one. I've been running out too much lately, and if it weren't for that, I'd add another five taels of silver. Buy your flagship! ”

Tavoni was so angry that smoke rose above his head. Fifteen taels of silver to buy my flagship? I'm afraid I can't even buy the rudder on the ground! What else can I say. If all the big Chinese people are like this, who would dare to do business with him?

For the sake of the trade land, Tavoni hurriedly accepted ten taels of silver from him: "Lin." My flagship has been sold to you, ten taels of silver! But I wonder when you will introduce your Emperor to me?! ”

Trade is a matter of reciprocity. With the help of the French caravans, Dahua goods were sold. Let them have land to earn. Just get that tariff under control. Westerners will get a small profit. The people of Dahua can also make a lot of money. Lin Wanrong nodded and smiled: "It should be just these few days, can't you still believe in my character?!" ”

I've seen your character! Tavoni was concerned and looked at the diamonds and real estate beauties that lay beside Mystolin. Although a little unwilling, it's just a gift. But how can you take it back? The most beautiful ** and the largest diamond are really cheap Mistolin, the white-eyed wolf.

Send Tavoni away. Lin Wanrong laughed happily, hugged the swaddling Zhao Zheng and kissed him fiercely: "Son, son." Your father is a big bloodletting for you. Just so that you don't lag behind the Westerners in the future! You remember. Do business with them, you must be ruthless! Don't sell the best to them. And help them count the money! If that's the case. Kill Lao Tzu and don't recognize you! ”

"Third brother, third brother. Madame Princess calls you! The little maid came in and hurriedly told him.

Since the two young ladies and the third brother got married. The servants of the Xiao family have long been shared with the Lin Mansion. Side, Xiao Feng, and Huan'er were all made by him and replaced others. I'm really not used to it.

"Okay, I'll go." The third brother smiled and sent his son to the little maid's arms.

Before Huan'er could take it, she let out an exclamation, and her little face turned red in an instant. It turned out that Zhao Zheng was hungry and was hugged by the girl, thinking it was a wet nurse, so he opened his mouth and bit it.

My son is not a simple person! His father was very happy and said busily: "Zheng'er." This aunt has no milk, let's go into the house and find your mother! ”

"Third brother!" Huan'er was ashamed and shocked. The face is flushed. Glaring at him hurriedly, he turned and ran away.

This girl is so stingy. Can't afford to joke. He smiled and stuffed the diamond deed into his arms, and hugged his son into the embroidery building.

In the green swirl room, the warblers and swallows are all complete. Lin Xuan was in his mother's arms, sucking milk in his small mouth, and the horn was rattling. Zhao Zheng was already hungry, and when he saw his younger brother eating happily, he cried loudly, and Ning Er hurriedly coaxed him and stuffed him into Miss Xiao's arms.

Seeing the two sons snuggled in their mother's arms, one on each side, happy **, Lin Wanrong smacked her lips, happy and annoyed, and hummed: "It's good now, there is no place for me!" ”

As soon as the words came out, the boudoir burst into laughter. Miss Xiao's cheeks were flushed, but she couldn't do anything about this husband, she could only look at him a few times, and her eyes were gentle like water: "Look at you as a daddy!" ”

Lin Wanrong took a look, there was one more person in the boudoir today, and Zhengmaimai sat on the side of Xiao Qingxuan's bed with his head bowed, his cheeks were full of redness.

He blinked and exclaimed, "Miss Xu, you're here too?!" ”

Xu Zhiqing hummed and didn't dare to look up, Miss Xiao smiled and said, "Sister Xu came to see me today, you are not allowed to be fierce to her!" ”

Fierce to her? Lin Wanrong's eyes widened, what did Xu Yatou say to Qingxuan, when did I kill her?

With Xu Zhiqing's arrogant temperament, she was able to come to see Qingxuan first, which was simply an accident within an accident. He hurriedly looked at Miss Xu, Xu Zhiqing secretly looked at him, and lowered her head shyly.

Xiao Qingxuan stroked the hair of the two sons in his arms, and said with a smile: "Lin Lang, I heard that you asked Sister Yuruo to make clothes, but I don't know how many sets to make?" ”

"This, this—" He hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Miss Xiao sighed lightly: "Husband, how many things did you not tell me?" Do you want to hide it from me for the rest of your life? ”
