Text Chapter 47 Liu's children
Cuiyunlou is the largest and most prosperous restaurant in Beijing, and the biggest feature of it is different from other restaurants is that it has famous chefs from five countries, only here, you can taste the most characteristic delicacies of the five countries at the same time, of course, its price is not cheap, unless the dignitaries are dignitary, ordinary people can not afford to eat. And in the private room on the third floor of this restaurant, Yun Yuhong, who was wearing black men's clothes, saw Bai Ziyu, the eldest son of Bai who he was thinking about.
There were only two people in the private room, Yun Yuhong and Bai Ziyu, Lao Dao and the others did not follow, but Bai Ziyu was a little uncomfortable facing Yun Yuhong alone. Yun Yuhong smiled and poured a glass of wine for Bai Ziyu, Bai Ziyu hurriedly said that he didn't dare, he wanted to grab the wine jug, but he accidentally touched Yun Yuhong's hand, so frightened that he hurriedly let go, and his face turned red.
Yun Yuhong smiled very happily, and also poured wine for herself and said, "Bai Gongzi doesn't have to be restrained, I won't eat you." ”
But this sentence not only did not play a soothing role, but made Bai Ziyu's ears red.
Yun Yuhong didn't want to embarrass him too much, so she changed the topic and said: "This restaurant and the Fenghua Building in the south of the city are both my property, and the guys are also my own people, so it is very convenient to speak, and I don't have to worry about the wall and ears." ”
Bai Ziyu was stunned for a moment, looked at this private room carefully, and said to Yun Yuhong: "I don't know how many such shops there are in the hands of the eldest princess, but there are also rice shops and cloth shops and the like, how does it compare with the Yu family?" ”
Yun Yuhong frowned: "Don't call me the eldest princess when you go out, I'll call you Brother Bai, and you call me Brother Xian." ”
Bai Ziyu nodded in response, "In front of outsiders, I will call you a virtuous brother." ”
Yun Yuhong continued: "I have a lot of shops of all kinds, but unfortunately, most of them are in the other four countries. In Moyun Country, especially in the capital, the power of the Yu family is too great, and many industries are monopolized by the Yu family, so it is difficult to get involved. You ask this, but what do you think? ”
Bai Ziyu nodded: "The Yu family has been crazy about accumulating money recently, driving up prices, and making the people's livelihood difficult, because their family industry is too large, and most of the people's living needs are controlled by it. If the household department does not mention this matter, it is useless for the government to come forward, so I want to find some way to check and balance one or two, at least the price must be reduced as soon as possible. ”
Yun Yuhong's business is all taken care of by Aunt Hong and Han Yijun, Yun Yuhong knows which ones are her industries, but how to operate her is always a hands-off shopkeeper, never asking, the reason is very simple, she doesn't understand, and obviously, Bai Ziyu understands these very well.
Yun Yuhong thought for a while, took out a token with the word "Jun" written on it from her arms, handed it to Bai Ziyu and said: "This is the token for mobilizing these shops, show it to the shopkeeper, they will act according to your orders." However, I don't have many shops in Moyun Country, only about forty, I don't know if it can help. ”
Bai Ziyu looked at the jade card but didn't take it, but looked at Yun Yuhong deeply and said, "The eldest princess is so trustworthy?" ”
Yun Yuhong smiled and said ruffianly: "Trustworthy, you like it, it's not impossible for me to give you these shops, but you have to pay a price!" ”
Bai Ziyu's face turned red again, and he couldn't help but laugh and scold: "Why don't you have a good line in three sentences?" ”
Yun Yuhong raised her eyebrows and said, "What's wrong with me, I gave you a shop, is it not right for you to do something for me?" You're not thinking crooked, are you? ”
Bai Ziyu was angry and funny, and there was no way to take Yun Yuhong at all, but he still took the token.
"I have some ideas, but there is still a lack of business talents, do you think Mr. Ning or the stingy ghost is feasible?" Bai Ziyu thought for a while and asked.
Yun Yuhong shook her head: "Mr. Ning is not good at these, he is too stingy, not like a businessman, I called the person who is in charge of these shops, if you have something bad to come forward, let him come forward, his name is Han Yijun, he is very good at doing business, he is a typical businessman, and it is not easy to show his feet." ”
Bai Ziyu nodded, but still hesitated for a moment before continuing: "It's not easy to fight against the Yu family, and I can't guarantee that you won't lose any of these businesses." ”
Yun Yuhong smiled: "I know, I just want to deal with the Yu family when I get these shops, you can use them." "As long as I have money to spend, what I really care about is Han Yijun and stingy ghosts. Of course, the latter sentence was omitted by Yun Yuhong.
The business of the two people has come to an end, and next, Yun Yuhong and Bai Ziyu talked about some of the things they have seen and heard over the years, and occasionally talked about calligraphy, painting and poetry. Bai Ziyu is well-read, knowledgeable, and has his own unique views on many things. Yun Yuhong has traveled all over the five countries, is familiar with the customs and customs of various places, coupled with the influence of thousands of years of civilization in her previous life, she can see things more clearly and understandably, and her words are also very humorous, which makes Bai Ziyu even more impressed with her. The two talked together eloquently, and they were very close to each other, and before they knew it, they didn't stop until sunset. When the two looked at the hour, they couldn't help but look at each other and smile.
It was not early, Yun Yuhong said goodbye first, but before leaving, the two agreed that they would meet here again three days later.
Yun Yuhong is very happy, her relationship with Bai Ziyu today can be regarded as a step forward, and she can't help but think about what the two will talk about next time they meet. It's just that on the way back to the palace, it is a narrow road, Yun Yuhong and Liu Junqing, the third son of the Liu family who was beaten by her last time, walked face to face, and walked with him is a man who is older than him, about thirty years old, and a man who is somewhat similar to him, Yun Yuhong thought, this may be Liu Xiang's sister-in-law, and the next helmsman of the Liu family, Liu Junwei, the second son of the Liu family.
Yun Yuhong was dressed as a man, and Liu Sangongzi was not interested in men, so he didn't look at Yun Yuhong squarely, and naturally he didn't recognize her. The two staggered by, and Yun Yuhong heard Liu Ergongzi say, "You will be born for a few days, and you will go out to play when your father solves her." ”
Yun Yuhong heard what this meant, this Liu Xiang wanted to deal with someone, and he was involved with Liu Sangongzi, I was afraid that he was going to deal with her, but he had to guard against it, so he secretly followed behind the two.
Liu Xiang has a total of four sons and two daughters, the eldest daughter is a concubine, that is, a virtuous concubine, and the second daughter is a concubine, who is still a minor and is not very valued. The eldest son is the concubine Liu Junyi, who was born to the eldest aunt, but the eldest aunt passed away when he was very young, Liu Junyi was raised by Mrs. Liu's side since he was a child, and the second and third sons were born by Mrs. Liu, that is, Liu Junwei and Liu Junqing. The fourth son was born to a new concubine, who was less than a year old.
I heard that Liu is still relatively important to his eldest son, in the early years, in order to win over Jing Wuhou, he married Huang Xianniang, the concubine of the Huang family, as his wife, and this is also the beginning of the alliance of interests between the Liu family and Jing Wuhou, and because of this beginning, the second year, the eldest daughter of the Huang family, Concubine De, entered the palace as a concubine. The second son is also a talent, shrewd and capable, Liu Xiang set him as the heir, and married him to Jing Huihou's daughter Hu Jing, which also represents the union of interests of Liu Fu and Jing Huihou. And these three sons, originally Liu Xiang gave him a marriage to the eldest daughter of the imperial history, but he died early before he became a married woman, and Liu Xiang booked another daughter of Ma Yushi, but because he was still a little younger, he delayed the matter.
Liu Ergongzi taught his younger brother and said: "You are not young anymore, you can't always be reckless in doing things, the last time is a lesson, don't walk next time when you meet a woman, you this time, almost ruined your father's business, Ma Yushi deliberately retired his relatives, and was stopped by his father, you know, these literati are the most noble, and they pay the most attention to character and family style, and you will be more restrained in the future." ”
Liu Sangongzi retorted: "I just took advantage of it, I didn't do anything, I look like a little beauty, who knows that she is a tigress, let alone who can know that she is the eldest princess, I was really wronged." ”
"The people of our Liu Mansion are not so easy to be beaten, don't worry, Dad won't care, he will definitely help you fight back, even if she is a princess." Liu Ergongzi lowered his voice and said, but although his voice was low, Yun Yuhong's internal strength was deep, and his ears were so good that he didn't miss a word, and he heard it all in his ears.
Liu Sangongzi nodded, changed the topic and said: "Brother, you have to guard against big brother, big brother has recently been called the four shows of the capital with those sour Confucians, and he writes articles about facts all day long, but he has stolen a lot of your limelight." ”
Liu Ergongzi said with a cold face: "No matter how good his knowledge is, he is not a concubine, and his father has been dissatisfied with him recently, so if we don't need to do it, someone will clean him up." ”
Liu Sangongzi seemed to remember something funny, and giggled.
Liu Ergongzi was puzzled: "Is there anything I don't know?" ”
Liu Sangongzi said with a smile: "My sister-in-law's life has not been good recently, yesterday my mother punished her for kneeling for more than an hour, and the eldest brother finally came to intercede." ”
"Because of what?"
"What can there be, trivial things." Liu Sangongzi said nonchalantly.
Liu Ergongzi thought for a while, laughed, and asked, "What was the expression of the eldest brother at that time?" ”
Liu Sangongzi thought about it for a while, "It's nothing special, I have always admitted my mistakes, and I also said that what my mother said was right, and I will definitely change something in the future." I think it's a bit of a wretch. ”
Liu Ergongzi sighed: "He is not called a nest, it is called a bear of humiliation, and a dog that bites people will not bark easily." ”
The conversation between the two sons of the Liu family was a bit informative, and Yun Yuhong didn't understand it very well, but she was a little interested in this Liu eldest son and what Beijing Sixiu.
The two sons of Liufu talked a lot along the way, and soon led Yun Yuhong to the door of Liu's mansion, and the two of them entered the house, but Yunyu stayed outside. Looking at the majestic Liu Xiangfu, Yun Yuhong thought for a while, since she had already come, she would go in and take a look, anyway, it was getting late, so she would take the opportunity to be a gentleman on the beam.
