Gu Zheng knew that many of the great salt merchants of various dynasties in Chinese history relied on selling salt to get rich and wealthy! In the same way, it can be proved that if Gu Zheng can really get the permission of the imperial court and open a sugar bureau in Tongzhou to sell sugar, then even if she can't become a wealthy businessman, the money she earns is enough for her to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life!

It's just that I don't know if the imperial court is strict about opening a sugar bureau, can Master Cen ask for the emperor's permission and invite the emperor's holy decree?

Gu Zheng thought about it, Mrs. Jian had already written the letter to Master Cen, grabbed a handful of fine sand and sprinkled it on the letter to absorb ink, and saw that Gu Zheng had been in a daze, so she couldn't help but smile and asked, "What?" Wanwan thinks his grandmother's idea is not good? Or do you not want to take care of the sugar bureau? ”

Gu Zheng hurriedly shook his head in denial: "Grandmother, you misunderstood, your idea is excellent, I wonder if the emperor will easily agree to this matter?" ”

Mrs. Tai smiled and asked Gu Zheng: "If we don't give it a try, how do we know if the emperor will agree?" ”

Mrs. Tai's words made Gu Zheng feel a little disappointed: "It turns out that grandmother is not completely sure......"

"Silly boy! Now the several sugar bureaus opened by the imperial court are all taken care of by the Hui people, and none of them are taken care of by the people of our Dafeng Dynasty, I think if the emperor knows that our Cen family's sugar bureau will be taken care of by the Cen family after it is opened, he will definitely support it," Mrs. Tai said and stretched out her hand to 'touch' the top of Gu Zheng's head, and said with a smile: "You just wait to do a big job!" ”

Gu Zheng was a little embarrassed to be 'touched' by Mrs. Tai, and she got into Mrs. Tai's arms and sprinkled coquettishly: "Grandmother, what you think is 'very' thoughtful, and I am also happy to take care of the sugar bureau, but since the money earned by the sugar bureau is our own, then the sugar house, shops, etc. are afraid that we will also have to pay for the preparation of the sugar house, and the court will not allocate money for us to prepare, right?" ”

"Well, the court of the sugar bureau is just a name, such as the sugar liao, the shop, and even the purchase of sugar cane, refining white sugar, etc., we have to do it ourselves," these ladies have already calculated in their hearts, and now that Gu Zheng asked, she simply said her plan "sex": "I want to buy a ready-made one——— if the Zhang family is willing, we will pay to buy their sugar liao, and then ask them to help you make sugar together." ”

Not to mention buying the sugar liao, just buying the six or seven acres of land of the Zhang family will cost a lot of silver, so Gu Zheng inquired from Mrs. Tai and said, "I'll come when I go" and hurried back to Tingquan Courtyard......

Gu Zheng rushed back to Tingquan Courtyard in a hurry, didn't even bother to talk to the spoon, so he turned over all his 'private' room money, piled it on the table and counted it carefully, Gu Zheng found that although she earned a lot of extra money by designing jewelry styles for Baoqing Yinlou, she first took out a large part of the money to buy a birthday gift for Mrs. Tai, and then forced some to use Gu Feng's usual turnover, and she 'spent' a lot of it, and now there are only three hundred taels of silver left......

Gu Zheng didn't know how much silver was needed for one mu of land in Tongzhou, nor did he know the market for buying and selling a soil sugar liao the size of the Zhang family, as well as the shop used to do business, and he didn't know how much silver he would get for renting for a year...... After carefully calculating all kinds of expenses, Gu Zheng could only pour all the silver into the black lacquer-inlaid luodian 'flower' box, and after holding the box, he went straight to Rongshoutang again.

When Gu Zheng rushed back to Mrs. Tai out of breath, she took the initiative to offer the silver without waiting for Mrs. Tai to speak, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Grandmother, I only have a total of three hundred taels of silver in my hands, I don't know if this silver is enough to buy the Zhang family's sugar liao?" ”

The longing for the future made Gu Zheng's heart very 'excited', so she trotted back and forth this time, making her little face run red and fluttering, like a ripe cherry, very cute, so that Mrs. Tai couldn't help but laugh when she saw it: "You rushed back to Tingquan Courtyard in a hurry, just to come over with this box of silver?" ”

"Yes, my grandmother said that she wanted to buy a sugar house, rent a shop and open a sugar bureau, which of these don't need to 'spend' money? I can't use my grandmother's money anymore, I have it myself! Although Gu Zheng was afraid of his 'chest' and said that he was rich, but when he thought that he only had a pitiful amount of three hundred taels of silver, his voice couldn't help but be a lot smaller, and his tone was a little more shy: "It's that I only have three hundred taels of silver, I don't know if it's enough......"

"Silly boy, with your grandmother here, how can you use your money?" Mrs. Tai smiled and stuffed Gu Zheng's precious money box back into her arms, and said: "The sugar house and the shop have to be sold on the spot, and the fresh sugar cane has to be purchased by tenant farmers as soon as possible, and in addition to the Zhang family, we have to hire a few more talents, all of which have to be 'spent', how can you have enough money?" ”

Mrs. Tai's words made Gu Zheng's pretty face suddenly collapse, and she muttered in a muffled voice: "It's really not enough, then ...... Is there a lot of silver? ”

Gu Zheng's pouting and depressed appearance was very cute, so Mrs. Tai couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek, and said with a smile: "You don't have to 'bother' about the silver, grandmother still has a lot of silver here, even if it is more than enough to run ten sugar bureaus!" ”

"No, I can't keep 'spent' my grandmother's money!" Since he earned the first pot of gold through Liang Jingxian, Gu Zheng secretly vowed in his heart that he would never 'spend' Mrs. Tai's money again in the future.

"This is the dowry silver I left for your mother, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to give it to her until your mother died, so now you will accept it for your mother!" Seeing that Gu Zheng still wanted to excuse herself, Mrs. Tai pretended to be displeased and scolded her: "This is what I gave to your mother, you can only accept it for your mother, you can't refuse, otherwise you want me to be ashamed of your mother all the time!" ”

Mrs. Tai has said this part, Gu Zheng is not good at refusing, so she can only accept this gift for Gu Liniang: "Grandmother, I will definitely do a good job and will not let you down!" ”

"What are you doing with a girl's family? You tell Brother Feng about the method of refining white sugar, and let him help you take care of the sugar bureau, you are not allowed to give me a 'show' face! You haven't even said anything about people, how can you come forward to do these things?! ”

Although Mrs. Tai decided to put the sugar bureau under Gu Zheng's name, she didn't plan to let Gu Zheng 'show up' her face to take care of the sugar bureau——— in Mrs. Tai's heart, this is not what a serious lady should do.

After the grandfather and grandson happily discussed some details of the opening of the sugar bureau, Mrs. Tai put the dried letter paper into the envelope, and ordered Mama Yu to 'hand' over to the chief steward of the Cen family, and asked the chief steward to arrange for someone to send it to Master Cen as soon as possible......

However, he said that Master Cen had long been fed up with Mousavier's anger, and after receiving the letter, he agreed with Mrs. Tai's idea very much, and immediately entered the palace to face the saint, and asked the emperor to allow Cen's family to open a sugar bureau according to Mrs. Tai's instructions......

As soon as the emperor heard that someone in the Cen family could refine the white sugar that only the Hui people knew how to refine, he immediately approved Master Cen and allowed the Cen family to open a sugar bureau in Tongzhou.

As soon as the news came back, Mrs. Tai immediately helped Gu Zheng start to prepare for the Sugar Bureau, and Gu Feng also became Gu Zheng's "spokesperson".

The newly opened sugar bureau relied on the yellow clay refining method brought by Gu Zheng from modern times, and soon began to sell white sugar with a higher purity than the white sugar refined by the Hui people. And Gu Zheng is very kind, and the price is lower than that of the Hui people, not only did he soon attract people who needed white sugar near Tongzhou to buy it, but even some people in Luzhou would rather rush to Tongzhou to buy the white sugar of the Cen family, rather than go to the sugar bureau opened by Musavel in Benzhou to buy his white sugar.

As a result, the Cen family's sugar bureau soon became a market and business was booming, and half a year later, it reached the point of making money every day, which not only made other families very jealous, but even Mrs. Luo and Aunt Zhao, who had no opportunity and qualifications to participate in the operation of the Cen family's sugar bureau, were very blushing when they saw it, and there was a lot of talk about this sugar bureau managed by Gu Zheng in secret......
