No matter what the prince's father does, Chen'er Si'er's father is you, besides, your father is not the prince, is the emperor, okay!

Regardless of whether the prince's surname is Ye or Xie, you have to have the surname Ye.

Speaking of this, she almost forgot about it, and instructed Zheng's mother, "Lin Moxuan will reward two months of money." ”

Mother Zheng frowned lightly, the palace only rewarded one month of money, and Lin Moxuan rewarded two months, isn't it impossible to get along with the princess, but if she opposes it, she can't say it, it's not her money, the princess of the county has orders, and she can do it, and you can't do anything that blocks other people's money.

Zheng's mother went down, Ye Guiyue looked at her puzzled, and Zhiwan explained, "The second brother served as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, the princess rewarded money, Lin Moxuan was independent, there was no reward, I thought that Chen'er Si'er was entitled, and I didn't reward them, so I took the opportunity to reward them." ”

Originally, it was a good thing that Chen'er Si'er was enthroned, but he was demoted by the accompanying things, who would dare to touch his moldy head at that time?

Zhiwan gave him green vegetables, and asked casually, "Will you come back so late every day in the future?" ”

"I just entered the palace once," Ye Guiyue ate the vegetables.

Then talking about the things in the imperial study, Zhiwan heard that it was because Xie Xinyu made trouble in the street that it spread to Emperor Wenyuan's ears, and he was a little surprised, "How did you tell the emperor?" ”

Ye Guiyue looked at Zhiwan, saw that her eyes were shining, and said with a smile, "What else can I say, how can you tell me, how can I tell the emperor, the matter of my father will be dealt with when my father comes back, the emperor means that there is a war at the border pass, so there is no need to trouble him about this matter, I just don't know if the people from the palace and the Xinguo Mansion will send a letter to my father." ”

However, he thought that even if he sent it, his father would not pay attention to it, let alone do anything that would affect the military situation.

Zhiwan thinks that as a general, he often needs to make trade-offs in times of crisis, even the names of his loved ones.

After dinner, I realized that the house not only rewarded the monthly money. In the evening, each person also added two meat dishes, not only for this meal, but for the next three days.

The next day, there were quite a few people who came to congratulate them.

Zhiwan is the nominal daughter-in-law of the princess. Naturally, she wanted to entertain guests, but she found that where she was, there was always some restraint, after all, Ye Shizhan was a fourth-rank official, the king of Yuejun received the rank of general, and there were three fourth-rank officials under his hands, and when their sons and daughters were crowned kings and county lords, they didn't come to congratulate.

Everyone said why they didn't come, and it was naturally a happy event to seal the little prince and the little county lord. But the prince of the county was demoted, and it was naturally more important than pleasing the two little babies, naturally the thoughts of the king of Yue County.

Zhiwan smiled gently and didn't say anything.

But the more she was like this, the more difficult it became for those noble ladies to sit still. Sure enough, she still has a pimple in her heart, she is on the water side, and she still cares about the congratulatory gifts they sent?

On the contrary, they need to convince her, in the water side beauty court, the top care, that is not something that can be bought with money!

So far. It is also the princess, Princess Liuhua, Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Chu, and Mrs. Rong...... I counted on ten fingers.

As long as you spend 1,000 taels on the water side, you can get a free top-notch treatment.

There are so many things that sell in the water side. It is also worth a lot of money, as long as it consumes more than five taels of silver, a specific invoice will be issued, and generally a medium-sized mansion will consume a thousand taels in two months at the worst.

Like them, the mansion is huge. There are many daughters, and a thousand taels of rouge gouache, headdress, and food every month may not be enough.

And Princess Liuhua can take care of them for free for only five hundred taels!

That's the difference!

Now a new industry has been born outside the water side, which is the collection of invoices.

Those ordinary people, it is rare to buy a set of headdresses at a time, a year and a half can not get together a thousand taels, see someone receive invoices, on a dozen, one or twenty copper plates to sell the invoice, of course, the price will definitely change with the amount on the invoice.

For this reason, the counterfeiting industry was also born.

However, the paper on the water side is specially made, and in addition to dark lines, it also has a unique fragrance, and it can even be changed by the potion.

The sale of invoices cannot be stopped, and fraud must be suppressed.

On the water side, in order to prevent the guy from stealing the invoice, the invoice above fifty taels will take the initiative to press fingerprints and seals, which is absolutely not fake.

After congratulating the princess, a lady looked at Zhiwan and proposed, "There are snacks, candies, stir-fried goods, jewelry, rouge gouache in the Pujia Pavilion, why don't you sell silk and satin cloth?" ”

"That's right, there are also many decorations on the Treasure Pavilion, I haven't seen much, there are a lot of famous calligraphy and paintings, but unfortunately they are not sold, if there is, there is no need to run again."

They have 100% trust in the quality of the water side, either fake one to accompany three, or fake one to accompany ten.

All the ladies have made suggestions, eager to double the size of the water side, accumulate all things into one, and it is better to have embroidery needles.

Of course, this is obviously impossible, but Zhiwan is very satisfied with their response, the greater the demand, the better!

These ladies don't usually go out much, and most of these things are done by subordinates, but now that they are on the water side, they are relaxing and playing in it, and when they leave, they buy silk and satin by the way, what a good thing.

The princess sat there, listening to all kinds of bad tastes, she had already done so much on the water side, and with the silk and satin cloth business, wouldn't the business of her silk shops be about to plummet?

She has a silk shop very close to the water side, although it is not face to face with the water side, but it is also opposite to the water side, this month, the manager was ecstatic to tell that the income has increased by more than forty percent compared with the previous month.

Not many days after the opening of the water side, her shop has risen by forty percent, if it is a month, the sound of the shop will definitely be better, she is happy, this is good, the water side is going to compete with her for the silk business.

Thinking about it, there is a little fire in my heart, and I can't show it on my face, and the business is done by people all over the world.

Zhiwan, as the behind-the-scenes boss on the water side, expressed her views in a timely manner, "Everyone, rest assured, the silk business, in the water side will be done, and has been actively communicating with silk merchants all over Dayue, be sure to get the most exquisite and high-quality silk, be sure to ensure that the variety is complete, so that everyone can consume happily, in the middle of next month, the silk room will be opened." At that time, I would like to invite all the ladies to come. ”

"There are also furnishings, which were originally planned to open next month, but recently there have been some problems with the funds on the water side, and those items are more valuable. It may have to be postponed for a while, and if nothing else, it will be sold at Daguan Pavilion early next month. ”

Zhiwan said that the clouds were light and light, but they listened to their eyes round, in their opinion, on the water side it is a gold cave, and on the water side there will be no shortage of money if there is anything missing, but because of the lack of money, the goods will be uneven?

It's too unbelievable, is it not just a rumor that the king of Zhennan took 1.6 million taels on the water side as a military salary. Is it true?

The ladies looked at each other, and a question popped up in their minds: Was King Zhennan's head caught by the door?

Even if you are dedicated to the public, it is enough to take 600,000 taels, but you can take 1.6 million taels!

What kind of concept is that, even if it's a silver ticket of 10,000 taels. There is also a pile of ah, if you want to exchange it for gold, for silver, for copper plates......

There are already people who can't stand swallowing saliva, and seeing Zhiwan's eyes are getting brighter and brighter, the princess of the county is so courageous, let the prince take 1.6 million taels like this. It's so calm and admirable to say it.

Some shrewd people can't help but ask if they need to join the shares.

The question is very tactful, after all, the water side has not always been so short of money, at most this time next year, there will be another 1.6 million income. There will be more, not less.

A year is not a long time, but it is not a short time.

The princess took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Although the prince took a lot of money from the water side, I think the court should return the money to the water side." If there is a real shortage of funds, how can the royal government give you 100,000 taels. ”

Zhiwan nodded his head and said, "It's not particularly lacking, as long as you can maintain a balance between the two sides, in fact, Su Fu intends to buy shares, but I don't agree." ”

Everyone knows that Princess Yuejun is the granddaughter of the Su family, one of the seven great families, and compared to outsiders like them, it is naturally the grandfather's family that is more trustworthy, and everyone understands the truth that fat water does not flow into outsiders' fields.

On the water side, there are 10,000 taels owed to the Su family, milk, goat's milk, wool, and beef jerky, but they are all from the Su family.

I heard that the Su family and Chu Pei have set up a line to transport salt out of the customs, and it is much more convenient to buy cattle and sheep to enter the customs.

Recently, the price of salt has dropped a lot.

There is the credit of the Su family, and there is also the credit of Xinzhou.

On that day, she taught the Su family a simple way to turn salt brine into edible salt, and the Su family painted a scoop according to the gourd, and the salt business was out of control.

Tea, salt, wine, cloth, grain, rouge gouache, jewelry, porcelain.

There is only tea, and Zhiwan did not interfere.

Compared to the rest, the profit of tea is much less.

From this month onwards, on the water side and the Su family, they are attacking the other six families.

When the remaining nineteen are established on the water side, the income of the six major families will definitely shrink by at least thirty percent.

At this time, the An family knew how lucky it was to marry the Su family, although they were criticized, but the An family took the initiative to find the Su family to make beef jerky, the Su family did not refuse, and there was also a wine business, they took the initiative to discuss with Chu Pei, and the order they got was definitely not as much as the Su family took when they said hello, even if it was just one percent more, it was a big profit.

Originally, the six great families could also join forces to criticize the water side, unite the officials of the DPRK and China, and recommend the emperor to lift the alcohol ban, but now, the income of the water side has been given 1.6 million taels as military salary, and the six major families are willing to take it out?

If you are willing to do it, you can make it up today and cancel it tomorrow.

The court doesn't care if you sell alcohol or not, what the court wants is money!

The six great families who are blocked in one sentence are speechless, and then take a step back and say, on the water side is the Zhennan Wangfu, the king of Yuejun, and the emperor's favorite little prince and little county lord, who dares to drag his legs behind and carefully cut off your legs!

The backstage is too hard, so that when you negotiate business on the water side, the price is the cheapest, the quantity is the largest, almost how much you want, smash the pot and sell iron, and you have to make up the amount for sleepless day and night.

If you can take the initiative to send it to the door on the water side, you have to wake up with a smile in your dreams!

Not to mention anything else, just take the tribute as an example, the court supervision officials also went, heard the four words on the water side, and said respectfully, "This matter is not in a hurry, first follow the water side first." ”

This is the attitude of the imperial court.

When it comes to being on the water side, everyone's eyes are full of envy and jealousy, and they have looked at the head of the night several times, the same head, how can they think so much, so they will make money?

After looking at Zhiwan, I went to see the princess again, and the light in my eyes turned into sympathy, there was such a rich and powerful daughter-in-law. It's hard to be a mother-in-law, isn't it?

They had inquired in private, and they heard that the princess couldn't control Lin Moxuan's affairs, although she was uncomfortable, it was better than going against the princess of the county.

This is no longer the right of a daughter-in-law to be a housewife. It's that the housewife is worried about her daughter-in-law's marriage.

With the water side, not only is there money, but also an extra layer of talismans, if something happens to her, it is difficult to guarantee that everyone will not think about making money and killing people, such gossip is the most hurtful!

The princess sipped the tea, and couldn't even taste the fragrance of the tea, it was a happy event for Zhan'er to be crowned official, but everyone was more interested in the water side, and I really didn't know what they were happy about. Money drilled into people's pockets, and he was happy to be straight.

Coming out of the Purple Bead Courtyard, Poria Cocos, who had been holding back for half an hour, finally breathed smoothly, and smiled like a little fool, "The emperor handed over the matter of getting rid of the seven great families to the prince of the county." As a result, one is on the water side, and the six great families plummet, isn't this what the princess of the county often says? ”

Zhiwan smiled at the bottom of her eyes, "It can be said that it is not enough to shake the business of the six major families by thirty percent, it must be at least fifty percent, but the Su family ......." ”

Go on like this. The Su family will sit firmly in the position of the second largest family, there is too much money, if the background is not hard enough, it is always unsafe.

The balance of the Seven Great Families was shattered by her.

It was she who took Zhennan Wangfu and Chu Pei to break the identity of the seven families as enemies and friends, and the Su family stood firmly on her position, and through marriage. Brought the An family over, and with the help of the imperial court, they quickly attacked, and no matter how powerful the other five families were, they couldn't confront the imperial court.

In fact. The imperial court is only part of the factors, the most important thing is the goods, that is the last word.

Take wine and salt, for example, it is good and cheap, and everyone loves it.

Speaking of salt, after the salt mine in Xinzhou made Xinzhou a fief from the emperor, the first thing was to sell salt, salt is worth more than coal, and it has been two months, and I don't know how the income is?

In large households, the salt taste of the food is naturally suitable, but in poor families, many people cannot afford to eat salt, and the vegetables are much lighter, so they have money, not to buy meat, but to buy salt first.

The profit of salt is large, and it is a violation of the law to sell salt without permission, and it is punishable by rod or death.

Salt is especially popular in the grasslands, where sometimes a small bag of salt can be exchanged for a sheep.

Poria thought about Pujia Pavilion, she thought it was big enough, but she didn't expect it to be smaller, "Is the princess planning to put the silk shop in Nanyuan?" ”

Zhiwan is also worried about this, if the Pujia Pavilion is bigger, but Nanyuan is big enough, there is a place to teach embroidery, clean up the first floor, put the exquisite silk in it, all kinds of embroidery also, the more complete the kind, the better, but some embroidery just embroidery will take a year and a half, some exquisite, she is reluctant to sell it!

Naturally, there is no shortage of Pujia Pavilion, and some samples are placed for people to choose.

Two days later, there was news of the Xinzhou Salt Mine, which was specially asked about Zhiwan and Ye Guiyue, which basically meant that the regulations of the Dayue Dynasty were to pay taxes twice a year.

There is also the mineral tax, which is 100,000 taels, and it must be sent to the national inventory.

The salt mine tax in Xinzhou has reached 100,000 taels.

The court owes the water side silver, whether this batch of silver is deducted first, or sent to Beijing in accordance with the regulations, you must know the idea of taking it later.

To be honest, Zhiwan really wanted to deduct it, and that batch of money, to be precise, was not taxed, but divided equally with the emperor.

That is, she got 100,000 taels, and the emperor got 100,000 taels.

There are other mines, such as copper mines, and she has an easy way to refine copper, so that the price of copper in Xinzhou is two to three percent lower than that of other places, and the manufacturing price of copper is naturally much lower.

It's another lot of money.

Almost the same, the emperor has 150,000 yuan in her hands, and she doesn't want to give the emperor a word of her.

But she couldn't make up her mind, she didn't lack anything, and she had a lot less money, looking at Ye Guiyue, "Will you give the money to the emperor?" ”

"You have the idea."

Zhiwan rolled his eyes, and thought for a moment, "The money is 150,000 taels in the hands of the emperor, and then take it out and use it on the people, it is estimated that it will not even be 100,000 taels, why don't I use it directly for him, how about we build the road?" ”

Ye Guiyue raised his eyebrows, if he said that he was talking about building bridges, building houses, and building channels, he could still understand, how could it be to build roads, "Are you sure to build roads?" ”

Zhiwan nodded. "Have you ever heard of a saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads?"

Ye Guiyue shook his head and said later. "In the inner city of Kyoto, the bluestone is paved, and the carriage is not bumpy, but when you go out of the city gate, it is dust, and the carriage is bumpy, which is a waste of time, and the ordinary three-hour road will waste a day. What a waste of manpower, how good it is to build roads! ”

Ye Guiyue pondered it, this method is not impossible, and the imperial court often builds roads, but it has no effect. On the contrary, the bricks she used to repair the canal and build the dam are of good quality, "It is feasible, tell the emperor tomorrow, and the money will be used to repair the road." ”

Zhiwan thought to herself, if she repairs the road, how about it is also a highway, do you want to pay a fee?

The charge is too hated. Still don't.

It's just that the people here basically rely on the shoulder, which is unacceptable, affecting the speed and wasting manpower, and the carts on the modern construction site can appear, anyway, it is not difficult to make iron. It's just that the tires are not easy to do, and she doesn't know how to get them, but the wheels of the carriage are also wooden, so it's good to be wood.

"Let's build the road from Kyoto to Lishu first, and widen the road by two meters. After the road was repaired, Kyoto to Lishu can be reached in one day by horse-drawn carriage. ”

If you want to change it to the next generation, you want to build such a long road for 150,000 taels of silver, it's just a dream, but you can't stand the narrow road here, the labor is cheap, the salary is twenty or thirty copper plates, and it is enough to have enough food, and many things are free of money, such as the land on the side of the road, directly requisitioned, and then you will be given a piece.

Let the people here also realize that they can support their families without farming, just by building roads.

And in some places, as long as you build a bridge, you can avoid a lot of detours, sometimes not just a quarter of an hour, but a few hours.

The wooden bridge is not strong, it is barely possible to walk, it is absolutely impossible to cross the carriage, and it has to be built into stone, and it has to be made of steel bars.

Zhiwan decided to recruit bridge builders, as well as those ploughing cattle, many of which were raised when they were not cultivated, and they were requisitioned as labor.

Zhiwan decided to build the road, she wouldn't tell Ye Guiyue, she actually just wanted to go to the other courtyard in Lizhou to have fun, but she was afraid of taking a carriage and running back and forth for fear that her bones would fall apart.

You can't put it there as an ornament, you have to make it valuable.

Zhiwan needs a map from Kyoto to Lishu, about how many miles, how many people are appropriate, and how long it will take to repair.

Just do it, and it's not ambiguous at all.

Ye Guiyue really mentioned the matter of building the road to Emperor Wenyuan, Zhiwan said that he wanted to get rich, and Emperor Wenyuan agreed with the words of building the road first, the money did not come to the treasury, and Xinzhou was barren, so he was already very happy, and she was not a waste of money, so let's build the road.

It's just that some officials are not very happy, isn't this Ji Si Chen, that's what they should be in charge of, and they actually asked the princess of the county to rob it, or is it like that, what does it mean not to build a road, then the money will be paid off first?

Chiguoguo's threat, Emperor Wen Yuan also felt that his face was gloomy when he heard it, but when he thought that as long as he didn't pay it back for ten years, the money probably didn't have to be repaid, and he could still build a road out, that was a political achievement, cough cough, if he didn't pay back the money, he was willing.

Then the imperial court issued a holy decree to Zhiwan, and was ordered to build roads, with this holy decree, she could find the yamen, and requisition labor in a bright and bright way.

Zhiwan even saw that there were many fields belonging to the imperial court, and no one cultivated them there, just waiting for people to have children, and divided the land, he was really speechless, no one planted the fields, and the grain would pop out by itself?

Zhiwan decisively took the holy decree to do things, built the road for 100 days, did not take wages, was responsible for two meals, and could share one acre of fertile land.

Those who sign up must be between the ages of 17 and 45, with priority given to local residents.

As soon as this regulation came out, there were one or two hundred people who signed up a day.

They don't need to be paid, Le's Zhiwan giggled, and was worried that the money was not enough, isn't this enough?

It is estimated that there are many more, and this person has always been generous, and he serves meat buns in the morning.

Zhiwan was happy, the people who built the road were happy, the civil and military officials were unhappy, and the emperor was not happy when he was impeached.

Calculate the wages of the land of the imperial court, the princess of Yuejun is inevitably too fine, isn't this still a pit for the emperor?

But they can't help it, building roads is a good thing for the people, the road is smooth, the transportation is convenient, what local specialties you want to eat, it's also convenient, anyway, it's not their money, forget it, when you don't know.

However, where there is money, the most feared thing is undoubtedly greedy for ink, and it is inevitable that he will be greedy for ink, so he has sent a special person to supervise it.

At such an astonishing speed, the road from Kyoto to Lizhou was repaired in less than four months, which shocked Emperor Wenyuan and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
