Xiao Chuan said: "Guirong." You....... ”

Lu Xin glanced at the small tube. Remind him and say, "Call me Childe." On one's mind. Don't make a mistake. ”

The little tube said, "Yes." Honorable. Minions must remember ....... ”

Lu Xin glared at the small tube again. Xiao Bozi hurriedly changed his words and said, "Yes." Public... Child....... Son. You don't know it. Recent. A large number of beggars poured in from the north of the capital. It is said that there is a lot of snow over there. The people's reserves of grain and grass are simply not enough to survive this winter. There are also herders whose livestock are either frozen to death or starved to death. A lot of people don't have a life to go by. That's why my family fled here. ”

After listening to Lu Xin. Weiwei said: "I see. It is also because of this that the people of the capital panic. So frantically rush to buy grain and grass. Isn't that so. ”

Xiao Tube said: "What Childe said is extremely true. That's the way it is. ”

Jin Fengxiangli. The stewards and treasurers of each shop gathered in the hall to discuss the lack of granary stock. Lu Xin's arrival quieted everyone down. Everyone was waiting for Lu Xin's speech. Lu Xin said straight to the point: "This time, gather everyone together. The main purpose is to discuss the shortage of grain and grass in the granary. I don't know if everyone has any suggestions to continue to buy grain and grass into the warehouse. Safeguard the normal operation of the store. ”

An old shopkeeper on West Street said, "Young Master Nalan." Now there is a snowstorm. This has led to a shortage of grain and grass. It can be said that everyone is at risk. How could those farmers sell us grain and grass? This thing ....... It's hard. ”

The shopkeeper of East Street also said: "Nalan Gongzi." Our shopkeepers have recently bought a little bit of grain and grass. However, the purchase price is more than double the usual purchase price. And. It's not a good product yet. It's not a way to go on like this.。。 ”

Other shopkeepers also said: "Even if you pay a high price, you can't buy enough grain and grass." What can I do? Nalan Gongzi. You'll have to figure it out. ”

Lu Xin looked at the shopkeepers and talked about the difficulties of operation. Xiao Bozi stood up and said, "Everyone be quiet. Everyone is quiet. My son-in-law has something to say. ”

Lu Xin said: "Everyone didn't think of any way. Ben Gongzi has an idea. I don't know if it's feasible or not. Let's take a look at it first. ”

As soon as the shopkeepers heard that there was a way. Hurriedly asked, "What way?"

Lu Xin said: "Because there was a snow disaster in the north. caused Yu Liguo to panic. The people are afraid that the snow disaster will spread to this side. That's why the current problem arises. Since there is no way to buy grain and grass in the country. Then it is better to try to buy grain and grass from neighboring countries and come back. The closest to us are the new country of Shu and the country of Landan. They have abundant food there. If purchased in large quantities. You can definitely negotiate a suitable price. What do you think? ”

The old shopkeeper on South Street said, "This." I've never tried this before. ”

The shopkeeper of West Street thought about it. Here's a rough summary of the drawbacks. He said, "Childe." It's a long way to go. Manpower and material resources are a big expenditure. And. It takes a long time. It's not a good deal. ”

But. Honestly. It's a loss-making business. Lu Xin didn't think about this. But. There is a snow storm right now. Your own inventory is insufficient. In order to be able to get food and grass. That's all it takes. After all. There is no such thing as a profitable business all the time. Fortunately, both the gold shop and the cloth mill made a lot of money before. Now let's take it to supplement these grain shops first.

Lu Xin said to the shopkeepers: "As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. It is imperative to buy grain and grass from neighbouring countries. You have arranged for two groups of people to go to the new country and the landan country to procure grain and grass. When everyone has purchased the first batch of grain and grass, they will first deliver it back to some people. The rest of the people continued to procure the second batch of grain and grass there. And the first people to return with grain and grass. When he returned, he had to go to receive the second batch of grain and grass immediately. And so on. Make sure you get enough food and grass to come back. In order to ensure the normal operation of more than 20 of our grain stores. ”

The shopkeeper of South Street said: "Although this method is full of twists and turns. But it's a good idea. The manpower side will be more expensive. But then our food and grass can be solved. ”

Lu Xin continued: "Yes. Small wealth does not come out, and big wealth does not come in. And. I've thought about it. There is plenty of rain in the south. The quality of grain and grass is also better than that of our country. The production is also more abundant than ours. In order to make it easier for us to mobilize grain and grass in the future. I plan to set up granary stations in the counties along the way. Implement the procurement and transportation of grain and grass in different sections. ”

A shopkeeper asked, "Young Master Nalan has such a grand business mind at a young age. Dare to practice. The subordinates really admired. But. Do as Nalan Gongzi just said. Will there be too much movement. If we let the merchants of neighboring countries know our predicament. It will inevitably raise the price of grain and grass to sell to us. It will affect the price at which we sell. ”

Lu Xin thought for a while and said, "This is not a big question. It can be purchased in small quantities and shipped back. That way, the movement won't be too obvious. Lu Xin thought that this kind of cross-border business was indeed easy to attract attention. But he is doing business above board. It doesn't matter how much it gets. It can only be done as low-key as possible.

That's how the granary was settled. At last. Lu Xin encouraged everyone and said: "This time, everyone will go through the difficulties with me. As long as everyone works together. Our store will definitely survive this difficulty. I hope you can all believe me. Just do what I say. It's going to work. This matter is the sole responsibility of Jin Fengxiang's treasurer. The assistant shopkeepers of East, West and South Streets cooperated. It's important to get our plans up to date as soon as possible. If it's nothing. Let's all go back to work. ”

On the way back to the palace. Xiao Guan asked curiously, "Xin Guirong." You're the person you admire the most. How did you come up with such an idea? ”

After listening to Lu Xin. Laughed a little. He didn't answer right away. The reason why she was able to come up with such a way to give up the near and far was also forced to be helpless. She has a modern mind. He was also a business wizard. This time, it was just the method of import and export trade. And isn't there still a story of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project that can be used for reference?

Lu Xin said with a smile: "It's not difficult to come up with this solution. It's because it takes a lot of manpower. Spending more money is why it limits everyone's thinking. ”

Xiao Zi said, "Anyway. Xin Guirong, you are the most powerful in my mind. The most capable. The most beautiful people. ”

Lu Xin smiled and said, "Hehe." I'm good, I don't need you to say it, I know. Let's hurry back to the palace. Otherwise. Xiao Xuan is about to die. ”

Xiao Bozi said, "Uh-huh. Let's go. ”

Lu Xin and Xiao Guanzi hurried back to the palace. As they walked on their way back to the Phoenix Palace. I happened to meet Li Guiyi, who came out for a walk in the imperial garden. Lu Xin and Xiao Guanzi stood not far away, and saw Li Guiyi and several personal palace maids coming in their direction. At this time. The distance between Lu Xin and Li Guiyi is not too far. So. Lu Xin didn't dare to turn around and leave. I'm afraid that this will make people more suspicious. But. If it's close. Lu Xin inevitably had to salute her. As long as Li Guiyi or Xiaocui, the personal maid next to her, pay a little attention. That will surely recognize itself. Lu Xin stood in place. I thought anxiously: "This is really an enemy on a single-plank bridge - the road is narrow." What to do. ”

As Li Guiyi got closer and closer. Lu Xin and Xiao Guan both stood aside with their heads bowed to avoid it. This is the rule of walking in the palace. If the subordinates see the master, they need to retreat to the side of the road in advance to avoid it. Wait for the master to approach before saluting. If you see the emperor. Then you will kneel down and take the car from afar. When the emperor is out of sight, he can get up and leave. Lu Xin saw that Li Guiyi was only a few feet away from her. She thought to herself, "This is a dead death."

Suddenly. A voice sounded from behind Li Guiyi: "The emperor has arrived."

Suddenly. Liguiyi was like an electric shock. Immediately turn backwards. Take the palace maids to salute Xuanyuan Rui. Li Guiyi knelt down and said, "The concubine sees the emperor."

Xuanyuan Rui said, "No courtesy."

Xiao Cui gently helped Li Guiyi to stand up. Li Guiyi lowered her head and didn't dare to make a sound. She stood silently aside. How excited I was. How she wanted to look up and look at the lover she had been thinking about. I want to see if his face is thin. I want to see if he is happy when he sees himself at this time, or if he is still as plain as water.

When Lu Xin and Xiao Guanzi heard that the emperor had arrived. Both of them fell to their knees. Hang your head. Lu Xin thought, "I really picked a good time to go out today." But I didn't pick a good time to return to the palace. The two people I least wanted to see were met. If it's usual. If you meet it, you will meet it. But now. I'm still wearing a eunuch's uniform. Looks like it's really going to be over. ”

Lu Xin's worries and anxieties were all included in Xuanyuan Rui's eyes. Xuanyuan Rui thought to himself: "Okay, you Lu Xin." If I am one step late. I don't know what sin I'm going to cure you. ”

Li Guiyi waited for a while, but she didn't hear Xuanyuan Rui speak. She raised her head slightly, and saw Xuanyuan Rui's eyes looking behind her. She asked, "Your Majesty." What are you looking at. ”

Li Guiyi said and was about to turn around and look back. Xuanyuan Rui suddenly set his eyes on Li Guiyi's head. and raised his hand to grab a golden hairpin on her bun. She couldn't move for a moment. Li Guiyi was taken aback by Xuanyuan Rui's actions. She said in a panic: "Your Majesty." The concubine .......... ”

Xuanyuan Rui looked at the person who was frightened by himself. He said expressionlessly, "This hairpin is very suitable for you."

Xuanyuan Rui's words fell. Immediately made Li Guiyi feel at ease. She said shyly and timidly: "Your Majesty." Have you forgotten. This was given to your concubine a month ago. The concubine liked it very much. I wear it every day. Just wear this hairpin. The concubines always felt the emperor's grace. Emperor. The concubine .......... ”

Xuanyuan Rui listened impatiently to what Li Guiyi said. He said, "All right. I know it all. I have something to tell you. ”

Li Guiyi listened. Immediately overjoyed. She asked, "I don't know what the emperor wants to explain to his concubines." The concubines will do their best to get it done. ”

Xuanyuan Rui said, "I know you have the ability to do it well. Prince Shun has been coming to the palace for some days. I've been busy with state affairs. and did not treat him with courtesy. Anyway, he is also an envoy sent by the Landan Kingdom to form an alliance. It can be regarded as a guest of our country. So. I want you to run a dinner party yourself. Invite civil and military officials. The harem concubines attended to entertain him together. to show my sincerity. ”

Li Guiyi listened. I thought in my heart: "The emperor actually entrusted such an important matter to himself. He really trusted himself so much. Do you value yourself? ”

Li Guiyi hurriedly knelt down and said, "The concubine will definitely not live up to the emperor's order." Will definitely arrange the dinner properly. ”

Xuanyuan Rui said, "Hmm. That's good. Let's go to dinner with me. ”

Li Guiyi said happily: "The concubine thanks the emperor for his grace."

When Xuanyuan Rui and Li Guiyi both walked away. Lu Xin slowly stood up. The eyes were still on the direction they were leaving. She touched her heart. How can you still be so sad. Especially the scene when he accidentally saw Xuanyuan Rui raising his hand to support the golden hairpin for Li Guiyi just now. Lu Xin thought: They are so close in front of people. That person doesn't even need to imagine it later. knew that he was not destined to belong to him alone. But he is stupid to think that he will love only himself. He won't like any other woman anymore. But why do you have to go against yourself?

Lu Xin thought more and more. The tighter the brow furrowed. I felt like my heart was gripping. The sadness in her heart. Only she knows. She hated Xuanyuanrui. Hate why he left himself like this. And then. Ignore yourself.

Xiao Guanzi looked at Lu Xin's sad expression. He has always been in the deep palace. This kind of thing has long been commonplace. He whispered to Lu Xin, "Guirong." Let's go back. ”

Lu Xin listened to Xiao Guanzi's words. I came back to my senses. Both of them hurriedly walked back to the Phoenix Palace.

Early one morning. Jinhua Palace was full. Many concubines in the harem came to greet Li Guiyi. The concubine who used to be-for-tat with Li Guiyi in the prince's mansion. Since coming to the Imperial Palace. Their attitudes all fell in favor of Li Guiyi. Everything is based on Li Guiyi.

Li Guiyi looked at her palace full of concubines from various palaces and halls. But only I didn't see the beautiful and noble face of the Phoenix Palace. She laughed secretly in her heart, these are always the wind and the rudder. A woman who likes to climb dragons and phoenixes. Li Guiyi said: "Today. So many sisters came to my Jinhua Palace. I guess there's something going on. ”

Li Ji, who once hated Li Guiyi very much. Now I have to pat my ass and say, "Where is my sister?" What will happen to us? We all know that my sister has been so busy with the dinner party lately that she can't even take care of herself. We're all worried you're going to get burned out. So. Then they came over to visit. Hehe. ”

After Li Guiyi listened. smiled and said, "Hehe." I'm fine. It's good to take a break after you're done. Youlao, sisters, are worried. ”

Fan Ji also patted her ass and said, "Sister is so polite. Throughout the harem. is the only sister who can share the emperor's worries. It has to be valued by the emperor. We care about you, too. ”

Li Guiyi said with a smile: "I can share the emperor's worries." That's my blessing. This little tiredness and illness is nothing. ”

Fan Ji smiled and said, "What my sister said is true."

Li Ji said again: "That is what I said. But my sister still has to pay more attention to her body. Otherwise. In the future, I will manage this big harem. It's bothersome. ”

Li Guiyi listened to Li Ji's words. The heart is beautiful. She thought: "The emperor has already begun to let himself be in charge of affairs in the harem. Presumably, it is to hone your abilities. Seemingly. The emperor deliberately wanted to put himself on the throne. ”

Li Guiyi said, "Sister." Don't talk nonsense. Managing a harem is such a great responsibility. That is only qualified by the emperor to canonize the hand-picked queen. Now I'm just a second-class nobleman. And the harem has not yet canonized the queen. So. The emperor will entrust me to manage some affairs on my behalf. I never thought about it. I just hope to share the emperor's worries. ”

Li Ji looked at Li Guiyi's contrived demeanor. I couldn't help but feel angry in my heart. But she still held back the seizure. Silently stepped aside.

Then Li Guiyi instructed Xiao Cui: "Xiao Cui." Go and prepare the best pastries to entertain the masters. ”

When everyone tastes the pastries. The innocent Wan Ji suddenly said, "It's so lively today. Why didn't I see Sister Xin come over too. ”

All the concubines looked up at Wan Ji. Then I looked at Li Guiyi. In this harem. All of them knew that Li Guiyi and Xin Guirong had friction. There has been a competition for favor. And. They still know. When the emperor was not on the throne, he favored Li Guiyi the most. Later, because of the appearance of Xin Guirong, Li Guiyi was snubbed. After ascending the throne. The emperor favored Li Guiyi again. And let Xin Guirong fall out of favor until now. So. The relationship between them can be imagined.

Fan Ji broke this awkward atmosphere. She said, "Sister Wan. Don't you love this mung bean cake the most? Come. I'll give you this piece to eat. ”

As soon as Wan Ji heard that there was something to eat. Immediately said happily: "Thank you, Sister Fan." Then you're welcome. ”

When all the concubines left Jinhua Palace. Li Guiyi was still thinking thoughtfully. Xiao Cui looked at her and said, "Guiyi." What are you thinking? ”

Li Guiyi said: "I don't know if the emperor will come to Jinhua Palace tonight."

Xiao Cui said, "It will come." Didn't the emperor spend the night in our Jinhua Palace these days? Why should Guiyi worry? ”

Li Guiyi said: "The emperor has come to Jinhua Palace. But. He's just someone coming. But the heart did not come. Sometimes I think about it. I'd rather he didn't come. But. If he really doesn't come. I'm going to be sad again. It's sad. ”

Xiao Cui said: "Guiyi. The emperor's heart must be with you. If he doesn't like you. How can I keep coming to you? And I didn't go to the palace of the other concubines. ”

Li Guiyi said: "I feel that the emperor still loves her. I can feel it. ”
