Cui Hao thought about it and nodded, "What you said also makes sense, then let's let them continue to study, but it will cost a lot of money, you go back and get me some silver, this cost is like running water." ”

"Now you know why I asked for a single part of the money, and I didn't ask for it for myself. It's hard to talk to your family about this kind of money. ”

Zilan smiled, if you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, it's so easy to raise a cavalry.

Cui Hao smashed his mouth, "The emperor slammed the door, and he didn't give anything to eat and drink for nothing." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, let people hear it."

Zilan looked around before approaching him and whispered in his ear, "You are not allowed to tell others about something I have to show you, nor can I tell your father and your brother, grandfather knows, he won't let you say it." ”

"What's that?"

Cui Hao raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a suspicious expression.

Zilan waved her hand and took out a mahogany box from the space and opened it for him to see.

"It's ......"

Cui Hao was also startled when he saw something, and repeatedly held it in his hand and looked at it a few times to confirm that it was true.

"The emperor gave it to me, my father specially explained that no one in the family was allowed to mention this matter again, and my grandfather didn't let me tell you."

Zilan twisted her body embarrassedly.

"If you don't have a conscience, you will hide it from me if you know it."

Cui Hao stretched out his hand and pinched her waist, glaring at her angrily.

Zilan lay on his back and coquettishly, "Hey, hey! Why are you still angry, don't you know that Gonggong Li came to my house to preach the holy decree that day. ”

"Then I don't know if I gave this."

Cui Hao glared at her, and dared to quibble.

"I thought you knew."

Zilan twisted her body and smiled flatteringly.

"I don't know."

"Then it's not too late for you to know now, pretentious."

"Humph! Anyway, I'm not the most important person in your heart. ”

"No, in order to prove that I only have you in my heart, I decided to give this thing to you for safekeeping, take it."

Zilan simply put the brand in his arms.

It was Cui Hao's turn to be dumbfounded, "I want it useless." ”

Zilan rolled his eyes, "Then what are you talking to me about?" ”

"Okay, okay, then I'll forgive you."

Cui Hao returned the things to her.

Zilan repacked the things in the box and put them in the space, which was safer.

"I didn't do anything wrong, why do I want you to forgive, don't bully me for not reading much."

Cui Hao was amused by her, hugged her and kissed her, "Why are you so cute." ”

"Go, are you going to soak in the hot springs at night?"

"Go, I'm going to take a medicated bath."

"Good. Then there you go. ”

On the second day, the group returned home, and Ma Qing came to report the situation outside.

"Let's go to the study."

When Zilan saw him, he got up and said goodbye to the old lady and mother-in-law, "Mother, I'm going to the study." ”

"Go ahead. You are busy with your own business. ”

Zhang waved at her.

"How are they doing, are they doing well?"

"It's not bad, some people are a little wrong, and they can be corrected in time, I think most of the market has been done, and it is very distinctive and attractive."

"How are those students of the Cui family doing?"

"It's okay to look at it now, and it's also hard work, and I'm really not lazy, I see that there are already stores that have begun to pick up things and prepare for opening."

"You have to worry more about things outside, there are other plans in the future, and whether this market can make money is very important."

"Yes, I'm watching outside, you just have to tell me something."

Ma Qing is mainly responsible for outside affairs and helps her run errands.

"How's the list of treasurers I want and the specific information I want?"

"Most of the people have been completed, and the main person in charge is almost the same, so I can't find out the news of people like Shang Yi, the palace maid and eunuch in the palace."

Ma Qing couldn't help the news of the people in the palace, and his hand couldn't stretch out so long.

"I'll figure out a way for those people, keep an eye on those merchants, and don't let them toss around."

"Yes."

Ma Qing and Yan Li have their own strengths, they are responsible for different directions but can cooperate well, so far Zilan is quite satisfied.

The market has been renovated, and merchants are starting to move in and prepare for business.

Breakfast stalls have also been set up, saying that breakfast can actually be open all day, and the advantage of the market is here, not limited to time.

In order to do a good job in the market, I deliberately looked for some people who have been working in the market all the year round, and they have been doing stalls that everyone is familiar with for many years, such as osmanthus rice balls, and they eat their best food when they are young.

There are also chicken soup and small wontons, such small stalls have no power, that is, ordinary people come out to make a little money and have been working for decades to feed a family.

This time, Zilan specially sent people to ask their addresses, and then persuaded them one by one to join the market, one of them has been working for many years, and the few have been for one or two decades. It's a living signboard.

Second, they need this income, and with the market, the streets can't be placed so long, which will squeeze out their living space.

She went door-to-door to persuade them to join the market, to leave a place for them and not to ask them for rent for three years.

The money itself is not made from them, it is from those big merchants who collect their taxes.

The market is beautifully built, there are small rooms and counters, which are all divided into areas, and people like this only charge booth fees, and tax and silver are also counted in it, and the price is not high and very cheap.

For this matter, the people of the yamen also deliberately followed along, and many people went from hesitation to gambling and signed an agreement and did it together.

Ma Qing is here to help everyone settle down, and to instruct them on what to do to adapt to the new environment, so that they can sell for money after opening.

Don't pay booth fees for the first three yearsFor ordinary people, three years is enough time to make money and settle down.

However, although the merchant does not need the booth fee for the first three years, he has to pay taxes, which is already a discount.

The merchants who took refuge in the family all participated, and they were basically full, leaving some temporary stalls for the common people, and some people would come to sell mountain goods during the New Year's holidays, and the people of this part of the yamen would be responsible for handling it.

Everything is settled, just wait for Zilan to hold activities and liven up the market.

Although it is only a primary market, she has thought of everything she can supply and arranged it as much as possible.

There are live fish, but there are no live seafood and there are not so many varieties, but there are still live fish.

All kinds of ingredients and spices from the south to the north, as well as dried seafood from the south, are all available, and they are clearly marked at a glance, and the prices are also clearly marked.

There are already people who have gone around strangely, most of them have set up their things and opened, and snacks are the first to open, and they are already busy.

Zilan pondered what kind of activity to do, thought about it for a while, and wrote a list and handed it to Ma Qing.

"You go and ask people to make a newspaper according to my picture, find a few more people to distribute it all over the street, and shout with their mouths if they don't know how to read."

"Yes."

Ma Qing took the things and left.

She drew a diagram and wrote a few slogans and addresses underneath. In this way, those who don't know how to read and read also know that there is a lively look, and it is easier to recognize words.
