Because of the provincial affairs, the atmosphere of the whole palace is a little different.

This time, the three people on the concubine seat, as well as the biological mother of the seventh prince, Ning Concubine, and Yi Concubine, are among them.

Forget about others, Concubine Yi has no children and no daughters, but she is also allowed to save relatives, and others can't guess why.

Most of them thought it might be a placation to the generals.

Only Gu Jiuxing felt that he might know the truth......

After all, after listening to what Yan Shiyue said at that time, Emperor Ming Yan said with emotion: "Yue'er's ability to make money can't even match my horse." ”

Then he put Yi Concubine into the list of provincial relatives.

But this idea is also what he secretly thought about in private, after all, who would believe that the emperor asked the concubine to save his relatives in order to slaughter the concubine's mother's family?

It was at this time.

The counties that have been in the Ming Dynasty for 13 years have been released on the trial list.

Emperor Yan of the Ming Dynasty issued a special decree a year ago, starting from this year, for three consecutive years, students of the Northern Academy can participate in the imperial examination across their nationality in Longmen County.

Of course, the number of children admitted will increase according to the number of participants.

After the trial release of Longmen County, among the children admitted, there were as many as 56 students from the Northern Academy, while Longmen County itself only admitted 77 people.

At the same time as the news came, Yan Shiyue's Ministry of Commerce textbook was finally preliminarily completed.

After dinner in the evening, Huo Qijing took it out and handed it to Xu Wenqu, and said, "Sir, Yue'er said that if there is an allusion like Guan Zhong's 'serving the silk and lowering Luliang', please ask Mr. to help put a few in." ”

Qu Sinian and Gu Hengsha, including Huo Qiyang, all followed the past.

A very thick stack, if you put it in modern times, it is estimated that there is a thick book as a dictionary. About one-third of the front is Yan Shiyue's words, and about two-thirds of the back is Huo Qijing's words.

When they first came in, a few people were still talking and laughing, but gradually, they all sank in, and the room was quiet, except for the sound of flipping books.

It can be seen that she really put a lot of thought into writing this thing.

The front is a new accounting method, and the back is a chapter by chapter explanation, which is simple and practical. In order to make it easier to understand, there are also many examples in it, including the service of silk and the reduction of Luliang, as well as some operations of the Ministry of Commerce.

Yan Shiyue's idea is to write two parts, this one is an introductory textbook, biased towards sales, and the other one is to cultivate "traders", the overall situation, current affairs, the way of balance, etc., all of which will be talked about, well, of course, this one still only exists in her mind.

The four of them saw the ugly moment (2:15 a.m.) before they finished reading it one after another, Xu Wenqu finished reading it first, pressed his hand on the table, and sighed: "I suddenly felt that I had been reading ten years in vain today!" ”

Indeed, although this is superficial, but if you really look at it carefully, even if Xu Wenqu doesn't understand economics at all, he can get a glimpse of the doorway, in Yan Shiyue's words, it's all dry goods.

Huo Qiyang said: "Master, in fact, there is no need to make a big move, businessmen don't have to be too demanding in terms of literature and science. ”

"Yes," Qu Sinian agreed: "It's good to only correct the mistakes and omissions, and it's better to be superficial." ”

The four cultural people were so interested that they simply rolled up their sleeves and copied it, and the four of them were separated, and they could finish copying it when they were in the early dynasty.

Then Qu Sinian copied this new version, and after the early dynasty, it was given to Emperor Ming Yan.

Emperor Ming Yan heard that the four of them hadn't slept all night, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Is it really so good?" ”

Qu Sinian said: "The emperor will know when you look at it, and the ministers are really impressed. ”

Emperor Ming Yan smiled and responded, but he was entangled in affairs, and he didn't care about it for a while, and wanted to call Xu Wenqu to talk at lunch, but he heard that he took a three-day vacation, and it seemed that he wanted to concentrate on repairing books.

With such an emphasis on it, Emperor Ming Yan became curious, and took it after eating.

Then I watched, postponed the afternoon's events, and saw the moon and the sky.

It's really interesting, it seems to have opened a new door, and she can understand her previous operation a little.

Emperor Ming Yan asked someone to send this to the crown prince.

On Xu Wenqu's side, it took three whole days to change the book from beginning to end and send it to Yan Shiyue, Yan Shiyue felt very guilty: "I'm sorry, sir, I may have to change a few ......"

Xu Wenqu said with a smile: "It's okay, you change it, you can fix a book, it will be available for ten or eight years, so what's the harm if you change it a few times?" ”

Yan Shiyue said, "In this case, I will tell you while changing it, then when you copy it again, it will take less effort." ”

Xu Wenqu smiled and responded, Yan Shiyue entered the study, took a red pen, and directly added and changed on the paper. On the other hand, he couldn't help but sigh: "Sir, it's really feng shui in turn, it's only been a few days, I can circle words for you!" As he spoke, he also circled a note.

Xu Wenqu smiled silently.

Yan Shiyue's change took another two days.

Then Xu Wenqu spent another two days copying out the fourth edition...... Yan Shiyue was extremely embarrassed and changed a few more places.

In the meantime, the four princes came to the door and took the third edition.

In this way, it was changed until the seventh edition, and then the preliminary draft was finalized and handed over for printing as soon as possible.

Yan Shiyue named it "General Knowledge of the Ministry of Commerce", the original work Yan Shiyue, revised Xu Qing, there is an index in the front, and a selection of questions and reference answers are attached at the back.

Originally, this was a normal operation, but before it could be printed, two unexpected guests came to the Guogong Mansion.

The seventh and eighth princes came, and said to her seriously: "Imperial sister, can you hand over the sales of "General Knowledge of the Ministry of Commerce" to us?" ”

Meow?

Seven or eight is two years younger than Huo Qiyang, saying that she is ten years old, but in fact, she is only nine years old, she is used to Huo Qiyang's youth, but these two ...... She's still the little kid who plays six sides in her head.

Yan Shiyue asked, "Who called you here?" ”

The seventh prince said: "We are coming by ourselves, I asked my father, and my father said that you can agree......" He grabbed her, blinked his eyes and coquettishly: "Sister, you let me try, the silver sold, we will share it with you." ”

Well, she didn't want to use it anyway.

So she said, "I can leave the matter to you, but, first, the book must reach the cities as soon as possible." Second, the selling price of a book should not exceed 30 taels. ”

With movable type printing and improved papermaking, the price of the book was slightly lower, but her book was very thick, and the cost was at least about ten taels.

The Seventh Prince nodded: "I know, this thing has a different meaning, relying on strange goods to raise the price, it will damage the reputation of the imperial court, and you can't lose a big one because of a small one!" ”

Okay, with this awareness, nothing big can happen.

Yan Shiyue raised his hand and handed over this matter to him.

The royal child is really not simple, he dares to ask for things to do at such a young age.

In the evening, Yan Shiyue chatted with Huo Qijing, and after chatting for a long time, he didn't answer, so she asked, "Did you hear it!" ”

Huo Qijing has been holding a stethoscope to listen to the fetal heartbeat since just now, and she hasn't spoken for a long time, she asked, and he said, "I heard it." ”

She said, "I ask the fetal heartbeat!" ”

He smiled: "I can't hear clearly, is the child too young?" ”

Really? Yan Shiyue couldn't figure out the time, so he said, "Then I'll listen to it in a few days." As he spoke, his eyelids kept closing in one place: "I'm so sleepy, I'm sleeping......"

Huo Qijing hurriedly put away the stethoscope, blew out the lamp and candle, and she leaned on him and fell asleep in seconds.

Huo Qijing slowly put his hand on her huge belly, his fingers trembling slightly.
