Chapter 153: Concubine Yi

Jiang Lingran took the jade candlestick and looked at it for a moment, twisted his eyebrows and said, "How many more such candlesticks are there?" ”

Mu Zili said: "There are such situations in this batch of goods, large and small. ”

Jiang Lingran remembered the defective products he found in the small warehouse when he first came to Yutang Spring.

Thinking that this jade bank has been cooperating for several years, could it be that such a situation has always existed?

"Take me to see it." ”

Mu Zili led Jiang Lingran to the warehouse, opened a few boxes, and said, "That's it." ”

Jiang Lingran picked a few pieces casually, and there were either dense impurities precipitation on the jade, or the jade quality was not good, without exception.

Mu Zili said: "Our purchase price is high, and the price we sell must also increase, so that we can maintain our capital and make profits." But if the goods themselves are defective, and we can't sell them at a reduced price, in the long run, the customers will wither. ”

"Making buyers feel genuine is the way to do business in the long run." Jiang Lingran put down the jade, turned to look at Mu Zili and said, "What does the wooden shopkeeper mean?" ”

Mu Zili said: "Keeping such a jade artifact is also taking up space for nothing, so it is better to return it." ”

Jiang Lingran said: "Does the wooden shopkeeper have a good jade store to recommend?" ”

Mu Zili hesitated a little when he heard this, and frowned slightly: "Since I have become the shopkeeper of this Yutang Chun, I have the responsibility to make it better." ”

"There is indeed a jade shop down there that I understand, but."

Jiang Lingran understood what he meant from what he said halfway through.

Seeing the entanglement on his face, he smiled and said, "What did the wooden shopkeeper say about which jade store you were in charge of before?" ”

As he spoke, he said: "The wooden shopkeeper doesn't want to talk about it because I'm worried that I suspect you of colluding with Yuxing and pretending to be a public servant, right?" ”

Mu Zili waved his hand and said, "The girl is smart. ”

Anyone else would think so, right? As soon as I came, I rejected the commonly used purchase jade store by others, and recommended the jade store I was familiar with.

"Since I have invited the wooden shopkeeper to come, I trust you." Jiang Lingran smiled and said, "Let's contact them." ”

"However, I still have to look at the price and quality of the goods first."

Muzi Li bowed: "This is a matter of course." As he spoke, he pointed to the inferior jade in the box and said, "Girl, what to do with this batch of goods?" ”

Jiang Lingran said: "Just follow the meaning of the wooden shopkeeper, go back." ”

Muzi Li should go down and hurry up to handle it.

In Huayang Palace, Concubine Yi looked at King Rui sitting opposite, and said with a smile: "What are you busy with these days?" Don't even remember coming to see me? ”

King Rui leaned idly on the pillow, pinched a few white melon seeds in his hand and slowly knocked them, sighed when he heard the words, and said, "It's not those bad things, every day is burnt." ”

Saying what he thought, his expression became even more anxious, put down the white melon seeds, and hummed: "Since the end of the Halloween Festival, I haven't encountered a pleasant thing." ”

Concubine Yi's expression froze, and she said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?" As he spoke, he stared at Princess Rui.

The front court is quite stable, could it be that there is a fire in the backyard?!

Princess Rui was stared at by this star, and she shook her head and said, "My daughter-in-law doesn't know." ”

King Rui squinted at Princess Rui and sneered, "What can she know?" ”

Princess Rui's face stiffened slightly, but she lowered her head and didn't make a sound.

Concubine Yi didn't care about Princess Rui's emotions, looked at King Rui anxiously, and said, "What happened, tell me quickly." ”

Rui Wang said: "It is now the middle of May, and the rainy season is approaching. ”

"At this time of the year, the Ministry of Industry will write to my father to ask the emperor to dredge the river and strengthen the river embankment to prevent floods."

"This year is no exception, as soon as my father mentioned this matter, I immediately expressed my willingness to take over this errand."

"But my father gave the errand to the crown prince and the king of letters!"

Since ancient times, building roads and rivers has been fattening, and Concubine Yi understands King Rui's mood.

After a moment of silence, he said: "The emperor has not reused the crown prince for a day or two. ”

As he spoke, there was a cold light in his lowered eyes, and he snorted: "However, the king of letters has been jumping too often recently." ”

King Rui saw that Concubine Yi was on time, and immediately sat up straight, and said angrily: "That's what my son meant." ”

"The prince doesn't care, the middle palace is out, the prince of the East Palace, the father and the emperor are reused, and the officials rely on it, this is normal."

"What is a credible king? Where can I compare my origins and talents to him? For such an important errand, the emperor would rather give it to him than give it to me! ”

Concubine Yi saw him slamming the table, frowned, and said, "Don't be impatient, your father has his own thoughts." ”

"In recent days, you have been going to the Diligent Administration Hall more and walking around."

"However, don't say right and wrong about the two of them in front of your father, your father has always hated this."

King Rui couldn't lift his spirits and didn't answer.

Concubine Yi couldn't see his appearance, and said: "You also learn to believe in the king, he stays in the Qinzheng Palace all day and doesn't see half of the impatience." ”

"Bring tea and water, shush the cold and ask for warmth, don't you know? Why did you let the king of faith take possession? ”

King Rui said tiredly: "There are not a hundred or eighty servants in the Qinzheng Palace, where can I be used?" ”

Concubine Yi sank her face and said angrily: "They are them, you are you." ”

"Don't always think about being lazy, just serve tea, and it won't be missing your piece of meat!"

"Do it for a few more days, and your father will naturally love you when he sees your intimacy? When the time comes, find a few trustworthy officials to write and praise your father's kindness and filial piety, wouldn't it be a beautiful talk? ”

"What's more, the Diligent Administration Hall has always been the first to know the reports from all over the world, and it is of great benefit to you, so why not?"

The more King Rui listened, the more solemn his expression became, and when Concubine Yi spoke, he nodded and said, "What Concubine Mu said is very reasonable. As he said what he thought, he was suspicious: "My father is willing to give an errand to King Xin, could it be that he flattered him in front of the emperor?" ”

Concubine Yi frowned and reprimanded: "I just said that you should be cautious in your words and deeds." ”

"Your father doesn't like the brother's wall, you should pay attention to it in the future."

Brother wall? King Rui suddenly thought of his words and deeds in the Qinzheng Palace on the day of Wanshou Day in order to bring down the prince and the king of letters.

Could it be that his father alienated him because of this?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that it was possible, and I was apprehensive.

He took the tea and drank most of it in one go, and said, "I'll go to the Qinzheng Hall tomorrow." ”

Concubine Yi saw that he was being taught, her face softened, she pushed the dim sum into his hand, and said, "You can eat two pieces of what you just made." ”

Rui Wang casually pinched a piece and took a bite, frowning and said, "How did the taste change?" ”

When it came to this, Concubine Yi didn't have a good face, and snorted: "I heard that there is no cook in Yanqi's mansion, so your father called the imperial chef over." This dim sum is made by someone else, and the taste is different. ”

A prince, a king of letters, and a Yan Qi, even the straw bag of the king of Xiang is blue-eyed than him! The flame of anger burned King Rui's heart, he sneered and put the dim sum back on the plate, and said, "Just poison him with some poison." ”

Zhizi Mo Ruomu, hearing King Rui's words, Concubine Yi was so frightened that she almost dropped her cup, and said hurriedly: "Quickly put away your plans!" ”

"Don't even think about this kind of thing, if your father knows about it, you and I won't be able to live!"
