Xia Ming is right, she and Xia Ming were both born in the Star Picking Building, and they were both cultivated by national teachers. The national teacher was followed by a few powerful ones. Over the years, those Chang Sui have all been released as slaves, have a large family business, and have the status of a serious official in the Star Picking Building, not to mention how good life is.

There are also a few maids who follow the national teacher, and some of them married into rich families and became wives. Some even married into the families of petty officials and became wives. The two who didn't want to marry also stayed in the Star Picking Building and became a high-ranking grandmother. Life is rich and respected.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, that is to follow the national teacher. My own young lady will also be a national teacher in the future, so those who follow the young lady will definitely have a good place to go. And what I have to do is to listen to the young lady, be a good errand, and serve a good young lady.

Chunyin looked at Xia Ming, who was already busy preparing to go, and secretly scolded himself for not being smart enough, looking at Xia Ming, he had already figured it out. Follow the young lady wholeheartedly. There will definitely be benefits in the future. I'm still half-hearted here, if I am known by the omniscient lady, then I am not involved? Thinking of this, Chunyin cheered up and went on an errand.

Chunyin took the people and took the carriage of the star picking tower to the edge of the canal. It took nearly two hours to take a car from the inner city of the capital to the canal. This is also because the canal has to go out of the city after all, and it is still some distance from the capital. However, on the way to the canal, there was an endless stream of pedestrians, cars and horses, and Chunyin thought about it and understood. This is because now is the time when the grain is transported to the capital, and naturally there are many Jiangnan cargo ship merchants who come over to transport goods.

Chunyin went to the edge of the canal and found that it was becoming more and more prosperous, even comparable to the prosperity on the West Street of Beijing. The wharf is full of stevedores loading and unloading goods, and some are passenger ships, many people from Jiangnan choose to take a boat to the capital, a little slower, but not tired.

This wharf on the side of the canal has been developed for more than 100 years, so there are all kinds of facilities. There is a teahouse next to the wharf, and the little official who follows is very experienced, knowing that Chunyin is the first-class maid who follows Miss Mingzhu, so he called someone on the second floor of the teahouse on the second floor of the teahouse by the window of the wharf, set a location, and ask Chunyin to do it in the teahouse, while drinking tea comfortably, while waiting for himself to find out the news.

Chunyin drank tea while listening to all kinds of noisy sounds in the teahouse, most of the people who came to the teahouse were making sounds, and there were very few women, but it was not nothing. In fact, the people of Da Zhou are still very open.

After a while, the official came back and said to Chunyin, "The girl looked through the window, and there were three medium-sized merchant ships docked in the river beside the big willow tree, and they were the merchant surnamed He that our young lady had said. These three boats are full of fine silk, and the quality is still very good. I went to pretend to ask just now, and his price was very reasonable, and the quality of the silk was good. However, if you offend people, no one cares. ”

Chunyin frowned and asked, "Who did you offend?" How could so much silk not be sold? Isn't the silk in Jiangnan always a bestseller in the capital? ”

The officer said, "I've inquired about this too." The people of Beijing like the silk of the south of the Yangtze River. Because the silk and satin colors in Jiangnan are fresh, they are relatively soft and light. However, that also refers to the flowered silk. Who would use such plain silk for ordinary people? The people of Beijing like luxury, and only when there is a funeral at home, will they use white silk. Even if you use it, you like to use those white silks with dark lines, which looks high-grade. Who would use such a plain silk? ”

Chunyin couldn't help asking: "It's not a secret that the preferences of the people in the capital are not known, could this businessman surnamed He not know?" ”

The official said, "This surnamed He, although I have only talked to him for a few words, I can see that he is a shrewd person, and it is impossible not to know about it." He brought so much plain silk over, originally negotiated with a dye factory, and the three ships of silk were sold to the dye house. The people in the dyeing room take this kind of plain silk and dye the colors, and the price will naturally rise, but there is a lot of profit. This He Jinfang can also take the opportunity to make a profit. ”

"It was supposed to be a safe deal. He got the order for the dyeing house in the capital, so he returned to Jiangnan to buy the fine silk on three ships. It is said that he also asked his younger brother in his hometown to continue to buy it in Jiangnan. He first carried three ships of goods to the capital. However, when I arrived in the capital, it was already half a year later. The dyeing house in the capital was in trouble, and the family business was ruined. The entire dyeing room was bought. Natural trading is also yellow. ”

He Jinfang begged grandpa and grandmother everywhere to find customers to sell these satins. It's a pity that everyone is a clear-eyed person, and everyone refuses to bid, waiting for He Jinfang to support it, and then buy these three boats of silk at a cheap price and make a big profit. He Jinfang also knew that he was worried. Hey, at this moment, the heart of hanging is gone. It's a mess. ”

Chunyin understood.

The clerk suddenly said: "Miss Chunyin, you see, the one standing on the dock with a plain silk in his hand is He Jinfang. ”

Chunyin hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the officer. I saw a man wearing a stone blue Tuanwen robe, embroidered with a royal blue balustrade, looking shrewd, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but his face was already a little weathered, although he looked a little haggard, there was a lot of perseverance between his eyebrows and eyes.

Chunyin grew up in the Star Picking Building since she was a child, although she doesn't know how to do divination face-to-face, but she still knows some of this simple ability to see people. At such a glance, you can judge that this He Jinfang, if he meets a good backer and has good luck, I am afraid that he will be able to make a difference in the business field.

Chunyin said to the officials, "I'm tired of you." We still have some time, you can get in touch with this He Jinfang and the people around him more, and see if you can inquire more about him. ”

After speaking, Chunyin handed the clerk a small bag, which contained a bag of copper coins, although not much, but enough to buy a cup of tea.

The official thanked him, but he didn't take the bag, what he wanted was to show his face in front of the future national teacher Qin Mingyue, so naturally he wouldn't be greedy for the cheapness of these coppers.

Chunyin was stunned for a moment, but also understood that this official was a smart one, not looking at the present, but still thinking about the future in the future. However, this is also normal. Thinking that this clerk is very polite along the way, and he is also neat in his work, and now Miss is the time to use people, if this clerk can be of great use, he will also recommend one or two in front of Miss.

While Chunyin was thinking, the clerk had already gone downstairs to continue to inquire about the news. Chunyin looked at the figure of the official. I can't help but think that what Xia Ming said in the morning is too right. Following Miss is really promising, although Miss is only a six-grade official at the moment, she will definitely become a powerful national teacher in the future. The prime minister's door is a seven-rank official. She is the eldest maid of the young lady, although she is a slave, but the official officials of the Star Building have to scold themselves. Why can't you see your future clearly?
