183: The fifth master who took the wrong medicine
Cui Yan was slapped in the face by the results of the monthly exam.
In his words, the results of this monthly examination killed a businessman's giant armor, and the son of a wealthy businessman, Young Master Cui, who wanted to make a lot of money, died, and the one who survived was Cui Xiucai, who wanted to be a slaughterer for the official and a first-class official residence......
Cheng Qing laughed so much that he sprayed the food in his mouth.
Cui Yan is really a smart person, he quickly sobered up after a short period of confusion, and no longer insisted on expanding the scale of the fragrance business, and learned from Cheng Qing's approach: let it be as fate as you earn!
Cui Yan's ability to wake up so quickly is related to his own intelligence, and it is also related to his growth experience of being born in a wealthy family.
What he is obsessed with is not the silver itself, but the joy of making money.
As soon as he found out that this happiness conflicted with his studies, Cui Yan immediately stopped from the precipice.
But Cheng Qing's eldest sister Cheng Hui, who grew up to nineteen years old, fell in love for the first time - Qi Yansong didn't count that time, it was Qi Yansong's fiancé and cousin's double filter that was playing tricks.
Cheng Qing has already expressed his opposition, but Cheng Hui is not so easy to stop.
In the blink of an eye, it was August 15 of another year, and for three consecutive years, Nanyi's Mid-Autumn Festival was held in Ji Laoshangshu's annex on the riverside, and Lao Shangshu was generous and sponsored many funds.
It turned out that when I was not qualified to go to the cultural meeting, I wanted to go with my head sharpened.
Now that you don't have to pay the threshold fee for entering and exiting at will, Cheng Qing's feeling about this cultural meeting is very ordinary, and she is in the middle of whether she can go or not.
Cui Yan too.
In the first year, I was very excited to enter the literary club with problem solving.
Now he is also a showman, and no one stops him when he walks in, but he doesn't have that feeling of excitement.
But Cheng Qing had to go again.
The Wenhui is an important place of communication, Meng Huaijin, the 'light of Nanyi', went to the capital, and Cheng Qing, the little Sanyuan, didn't go again, wouldn't the Mid-Autumn Festival Wenhui be much bleaker?
At this year's literary meeting, Shen Xuedao can no longer be seen.
A provincial Xuedao only served for three years, and Shen Xuedao would be transferred to another post after the expiration of the term.
Many official positions in the Great Wei Dynasty are rotated every three years, like Li Zhixian, whom Cheng Qing prefers, and in a few months, he will have to go elsewhere to serve. Whether he is still a county magistrate or not, whether he will be promoted, Cheng Qing doesn't know.
But it should go up, right?
During Li Zhixian's tenure in Nanyi, there were no major malignant incidents in the county, Nanyi's academic style was at its peak, and there were more talents in the county every year than elsewhere, which was also Li Zhixian's political achievements.
Cheng Qing was quite reluctant to Li Zhixian, and he was replaced by a new magistrate, and he didn't know if he would get along well.
Li Zhixian is going to be transferred, and Yu Zhifu probably won't stay for long.
Cheng Qing listened to the gossip in the literary meeting and met He Laowai.
The old man came alone this year, and He Wan didn't follow.
Cheng Qing thought that He Wan was afraid of the recurrence of last year's falling into the water, and He Lao told him with mixed feelings that He Wan did not come because he took someone to Fucheng to discuss business, and he couldn't return to Nanyi during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Miss He is amazing, Cheng Qing wanted to say that she admired, but Old Man He pulled her aside:
"Xiaolang, do you know what happened to your fifth uncle, a few days ago, the people from the Internal Affairs Office arrived at the Xuandu Mansion to choose the satin for the internal supply, and the old man saw that the fifth master Cheng was interested in running for the election, and he was already a person from the Internal Affairs Mansion. This is different from what we have discussed before, the matter of Wang Bu is a lesson from the past, the Wang family used to be more beautiful, and now what is the end? “
It is indeed profitable to supply the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the weaving mill only brings one kind of satin to the palace, which can be used to drive the sales of other goods.
But how can the imperial merchant be so easy to be.
Rouge gouache and the like are the easiest to cause trouble.
Today, this concubine was poisoned with rouge, and tomorrow the lady rubbed the powder and had a rash, and after tracing it, it is difficult to say whether the ladies who are fighting back and forth will have something to say, and the relevant people of the Internal Affairs Department who handle the fat powder will definitely be unlucky.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs checked the heads of the merchants who paid tribute to the fat powder, and it was obviously not the merchant's fault, and it said that you were wrong, and it would definitely be unlucky.
The Wang family had an accident for similar reasons and was involved in the battle of the palace, but it was defeated in a few years.
Under the influence of the Wang family, veteran cloth merchants like He Laoyuanwai refused to go to the Internal Affairs Office. The silk of Xuandu Mansion is famous all over the country, but there are not only He and Cheng who operate silk, so let those new cloth merchants compete for this glory, and He Lao repeatedly warned his sons that they were not allowed to go away.
Master Cheng Wu used to be the same as Old Man He, how far away he was from the Internal Affairs Office.
Nanyi Cheng's reputation, how can it have anything to do with businessmen?
There are indeed mulberry fields in the clan, but the weaving mill and the silk business are all hung in other people's names!
Outsiders don't know the depths, but old neighbors like Mr. He naturally know. It was precisely because he knew that Old Man He wondered if Master Cheng Wu had taken the wrong medicine, and why did he take the initiative to do business with the Internal Affairs Office.
Master Cheng Wu did this, for what purpose?
Is there something that Master Cheng Wu knows, but he doesn't know yet?
After all, there are people in the Cheng family who are big officials in the court, and Old Man He suspects that Master Cheng's abnormality is due to a reason. He didn't ask Cheng Wu directly, but came to ask Cheng Qing, just to use Cheng Qing's message to be a buffer.
When Cheng Qing heard this, he chuckled in his heart.
He didn't know the cause of Cheng Rong's death, so naturally he wouldn't connect the two things.
But Cheng Qing knows!
The Ministry of Internal Affairs was procured for the Imperial Palace.
In addition to the emperor and concubines and other masters in the palace, there are also palace maids and internal eunuchs, the latter two add up to 10,000 or 20,000 people, without the procurement of the internal affairs office, the daily necessities of the palace from the master to the palace people cannot be solved.
Palace maids and internal supervisors are not allowed to wear silk until they are of a very high grade, and the silk purchased by the internal affairs government is mainly for the masters of each palace...... The fifth master wants to do the tribute business, and it is difficult for Cheng Qing to convince himself that the fifth master just wants to make money.
What does the fifth master want to do!
Is this thing stable?
Cheng Qing was worried, but he still pretended to be okay on his face, and promised to ask the fifth master for Old Man He.
He Lao Yuan also skipped this matter and did not mention it, a group of people walked this way lively, He Lao Yuan took a look: "Hey, how is Ji Lao Shangshu, his old man has not seen a foreign guest for two or three years, I didn't expect to appear at the literary meeting this year." ”
Ji Lao Shangshu has already sent a message.
However, the sea has been up and down for decades, and people have left many protégés who are old, and they have returned to their hometowns to retire, and the past relationship has not been lost.
Cheng Qing saw Ji Hao at a glance.
The old Shangshu who is past the age of old is coming to join the excitement of the literary meeting, which is naturally to pave the way for his nephew Ji Hao.
Old man He misunderstood, and asked Cheng Qing a little depressed, "Those scholars are enthusiastic about Ji Lao Shangshu, they want to be Lao Shangshu's grandson-in-law, and there are several young ladies in Ji Mansion who are still waiting for the boudoir...... Xiaolang also wants to step forward to flatter Lao Shangshu? ”
If she dares to say that she is interested in the little ladies of the Ji family, He Lao Yuanwai will definitely beat her.
Cheng Qing is not stupid.
She was only interested in the young master of the Ji family.
- Ha, that Ji Hao actually left Ji Laoshangshu and walked towards her!
