Everyone knows that the northern country produces good charcoal, and the silver silk charcoal produced in the Su Dynasty is very rare, but it is everywhere in the northern country.

However, everyone in the world also knows that there are few gem deposits in the north, and there is only one kind of translucent gemstone called DR Blue, which produces quite a lot. The northern country is not near the sea, and the lakes are frozen in all seasons, so there are no corals or pearls.

Most of the things decorated by the women of the northern country are decorated with gold and silver, and they are often ridiculed as tacky by the people of the Su Dynasty.

Unlike the women of the Su Dynasty, the rich and noble people used pigeon blood red, opal, turquoise, pearls, and agate to make Yingluo and bracelets, in short, they were full of tricks, and the common people also had a few beads and hairpins with poor color, or coral bracelets.

In short, the treasures produced by this Su Dynasty are much more than those of the Northern Kingdom.

Song Zhi thought of this, raised his eyes to look at the buck ear, and saw that a diamond-shaped sapphire the size of a walnut was embedded in the middle of her sideburns, and a pair of long blue ears hung on the earlobe, swaying slightly with her speech.

"Although the blue is beautiful, if you use turquoise, you can think that it can set off the mother's eyes more deeply and charming. It's just that I didn't know the color of Niangniang's eyes before, otherwise I would have made a turquoise face instead of agate. ”

The two stood facing each other, and the lanterns hanging on the roadside promenade emitted soft candlelight, outlining the side faces of the two of them.

Song Zhi stood beside Buck Ear, looking much more petite, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, the bridge of her nose was straight and delicate, and the side curve was gentle. If someone comes from afar, they may not know which beauty will fall on first.

When she heard Song Zhi say this, she thought she agreed, and was about to take her arm, but she heard her say: "However, all I can do is this face." The mother said that she wanted to do business with me, but I didn't have the ability to do it. ”

Buck Ear smiled slightly, and said, "The princess is so humble? Don't you think you have too much money and don't want to make any more money? ”

Song Zhi's expression remained unchanged, but he secretly slandered to himself, "After reading the expense account book of Yu Xinlou, how dare you think that the palace has a lot of money?" I'm afraid that I have to grit my teeth to make money in order to raise these secret guards. Thinking about it, Shen Baiyan is also an honest man, he pays for his own support, but he goes out to do things for the imperial court, and now that this Yuxinlou has been destroyed and moved south, in the long run, it has saved a lot of money. ’

Song Zhi came back to his senses slightly, still under the guise of saying. "Niangniang laughed, it's just that I don't have enough skills."

Buck Ear snorted lightly, paced a few steps forward, tilted his head slightly, and said, "The impostor wants to breed grain, and the prince wants to breed horses." After careful calculation, it is natural that we have lost some, and now we want to ask the princess for some more, but we can't, it seems that this deal is difficult to achieve. ”

When Song Zhi heard this, she smiled, she had already seen that this lady was not the kind of woman in the deep palace who only knew how to dress up, but she also had some knowledge.

"I have to discuss this matter with the prince, if it really happens, it will depend on the prince's people." Song Zhi made a cowardly little daughter-in-law, and she glanced at her, clearly not believing that Song Zhi was this kind of character.

However, this is not a long-term deal for women to send jewelry to each other, and it is naturally a big deal, and it should be discussed with Shen Baiyan, so she chuckled and said, "Then I'll wait for the good news from the princess." ”

After the dinner, Song Zhi and Shen Baiyan went back to the house to settle down, and Meteor whispered to Song Zhi: "Madam, after you go out with that noble concubine, the fifth princess's face is ugly!" ”

Song Zhi was fiddling with the tassels on his waist purse, and when he heard this, he glanced at Shen Baiyan, and saw that he blinked slightly, but did not speak, as if he had acquiesced.

"She has a small family style, what does it have to do with me? Originally, the business that Buck Er talked to me about today should be more appropriate for her to come and talk to me, and I think it was also because the impostor knew that she had a character that was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, so she let Buck Er come to talk to me. ”

Song Zhi had just told Shen Baiyan in the carriage about selling gems to the northern kingdom, Shen Baiyan nodded when he heard it, and only said that he would go back and talk about it, so everyone in the car knew what Song Zhi's 'business' meant.

Everyone heard that Song Zhi was using these words to spread anger, and they all honestly shrank their heads and stopped talking. If it was usual, she wouldn't use such mean words to talk about others, but Song Zhi still remembered the original provocation of Jiucang.

The impostor also knew that Jiucang had offended Song Zhi, and asked someone to send some things the next day, which was not valuable, but it was with Song Zhi.

"My lord said that these velvet hats are worn by the children of the princess's family, a little care, and the princess will make amends for her sins." The person who came spoke very straightforwardly and frankly, which made Song Zhi a little embarrassed, seeing that the corners of her eyes were densely wrinkled, she thought that she was a little old.

Seeing Song Zhi looking at herself, the grandmother smiled and said, "Princess, I am the nurse of the king." ”

That's the case, as the nurse of the impostor, her identity is naturally more valuable than that of ordinary palace maids.

Listening to her words, she also looked down on Princess Jiucang, Song Zhi couldn't help but feel that the life of the fifth princess mother and son in the north was not easy, that is, but she didn't teach the two of them how to judge the situation and miss the opportunity to make friends with Song Zhi again and again.

Shen Baiyan was reading the letter sent back by Fei Lan in the room, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Song Zhi sitting at the table holding a rabbit fur hat and smirking, as if he was infected by the smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled.

He lowered his eyes to read the letter, and when he saw that Fei Lan's letter mentioned that he had a slight dispute with the local people, he couldn't help frowning slightly. Suddenly, he felt that there was a foreign object touching the top, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Song Zhi had put a fluff of a fox ear on the top of his head.

"What's wrong? What does the letter say? Song Zhi pressed Shen Baiyan's eyebrows and said.

Shen Baiyan put away the letter paper and said, "It's a trivial matter." ”

Since Shen Baiyan said that it was a trivial matter, Song Zhi stopped asking, changed the topic, and said, "Do we do yesterday's business?" ”

Shen Baiyan took off his hat from his head and put it on Song Zhi's head, only to feel that the fox ears were very compatible with Song Zhi.

"Impostor is not a stingy person, and it is a pleasure to do business with him. When we came this time, the grain and good horses were already on the surface, and even if we could detain some privately, most of them would have to cross the clear path of the imperial court. We can earn the gems ourselves. Shen Baiyan finished speaking in one go, thinking that he had calculated it in his heart.

Song Zhi looked at his husband, suddenly stretched out his hand and twisted his face, and said, "You are quite a businessman." ”

Shen Baiyan grabbed her little paw and said, "What am I, my father is powerful." I was also able to relax because of most of his tired family business. ”

The family business that Shen Baiyan said was not in Song Zhi's original account books, but Shen Baiyan didn't hide it from her. It's just that those industries are all secretly and all over the place, and Song Zhi can't understand it even when he sees the account books.

Listening to Shen Baiyan, these industries are all taken care of by Su Shui, Fei Lan, and the account office of Yu Xinlou, which Song Zhi has never seen.

A few days ago, Song Zhi also saw several of these account books on Shen Baiyan's case, and the number of transactions in one of them was staggering.

"Then if we take over this gem business, will it be easy to do? You have to open a mine, you have to have a fleet, right? Song Zhi thought about it, but still felt that this matter was long-winded.

"As soon as the mutual market is opened, our convoy will be able to mix in it, and it will not make the court suspicious easily. As for this gem, it's not a problem. Shen Baiyan said: "I have a few gem mines in my hands, but now I sell uncarved rough stones, if you want to do this jewelry business, you have to collect some people." ”

When Song Zhi heard Shen Baiyan say this, he settled a little in his heart, and said, "Okay, I'll think about this matter slowly when I go back." How did you talk about stallions? ”

"They disagree only about the number, saying that they say five hundred, but I want eight hundred." Shen Baiyan said lightly, not feeling that his request was too much at all.

Song Zhi's eyes widened and said, "You want to swallow three hundred horses?" ”

"Why not?" Shen Baiyan looked at Song Zhi very strangely, and Song Zhi hurriedly shook his head.

"I'm going to let my people pick and choose." Shen Baiyan said slowly, Song Zhi listened to his tone, and thought that if he was an impostor, he would probably make this person angry!

"What if the impostor refuses to let go?" Song Zhi felt that Shen Baiyan was a little lion-mouthed.

Shen Baiyan shook his head and said very firmly: "There is a radish hanging in front of him, no matter what, he will be willing." ”

"What do you mean? What bait did you give him? Song Zhi couldn't help asking.

"Ujinjel." Shen Baiyan knew the power of this thing, so he couldn't help but lower his voice and said lightly.

Song Zhi straightened up and said, "This is not a big deal, right?" This black King Kong was held in his father's hands, and the output was small, so he only gave the court a batch of weapons. Now that it is going to be sent to the impostor, isn't it too much to pay? ”

"It's just that he is allowed to make a move, although the black king itself is powerful, but if the forging process is a little unbeautiful, this weapon will have a defect, and if there is a defect, it will leave an empty door for the opponent." Shen Baiyan saw that Song Zhi's eyebrows seemed to disagree, and explained: "This defect is only known to me and your father-in-law, if the two countries are peaceful, they will not harm the impostor in vain." ”

Song Zhi nodded at this time, and said melancholy: "You have more contact with my father than me, because of Song Yan's matter, there is some dislike between me and my father." ”

Shen Baiyan shook his head and comforted: "Every time I write back, I will write that you are okay at the end of the article." There was a time when I was careless and forgot. My father soon wrote to me and asked me if you were sick, which shows that my father still cares about you. ”

Song Zhi lay on Shen Baiyan's shoulder and sobbed slightly, extremely moved. At this time, Lan Yue knocked at the door and said, "The prince, the princess, the captain has sent a letter." ”
