Chapter 534: Peace

Shang Mingjie was a little depressed, he had not been able to rest since Lin Qingwan fell ill, he was already tired, coupled with the bitter summer, he couldn't help but be bored when he was treated like this by his mother at this time.

As soon as Lin Yubin came back, he saw him lying facing the wall, thinking of the news he had just received, so he "shh ”

Shang Wenhui clapped his little hands and asked Yingyan to carry him, and Lin Wenze had already run out first.

The girls in the room also quietly retreated, and Lin Yubin came up to see him, "Are you sick?" ”

Shang Mingjie turned over and said with a smile: "I'm not sick, I'm just a little tired, you and Kang'er go out to play, I'll just lie down for a while." ”

"On a hot day, you can lie down if you are not sick," Lin Yubin did not force him to get up, but pushed him and asked, "You haven't had a good night's sleep during this time, just put the matter of seeking knowledge and rest for a few more days." ”

Shang Mingjie smiled at her and didn't speak, just closed his eyes tiredly.

He was really tired.

Lin Yubin lay beside him and said softly: "In two months it will be my mother's birthday, when you take her and Kang'er and them on an outing, she always worships the Buddha and goes to the Tao, and she will always be bored." ”

Shang Mingjie said in a sullen voice: "Although there are fewer posts handed to the family, it is not nothing, you have to keep filial piety and not treat guests, but she is fine, what is there to be bored?" ”

Lin Yubin said thoughtfully: "There are times when gossip is boring, why don't we find something for our mother to do?" ”

"What to do, do you want to feed in the tube?" Shang Mingjie frowned and said, "It's still you and the fourth sister who manage it well." ”

Shang Mingjie didn't find out that his mother was pretending to be sick this time, but he was not a fool, and he knew that the feed could not be handed over to his mother, otherwise the family would definitely be in chaos again.

Lin Yubin smiled and said: "It's not a feed, don't you have some money in your hands, it's better to buy an industry for your mother, Zhuangzi is not good, it's better to shop, or make jewelry, or do silk and garment business, so you have something to do." ”

Shang Mingjie was thoughtful.

The money in his hand was earned from following his eldest brother in business in the past two years, and he had accumulated a lot of money, even if he wanted to buy property for his mother.

Lin Yubin saw that the look on his face was better, so he smiled and leaned on his chest and asked, "Are you happier now?" ”

Shang Mingjie hugged her and smiled: "My cousin still has a way, I will tell my mother when I go back and ask her what business she wants to do." ”

Lin Yubin nodded with a smile, and said, "Since you gave it to your mother, it's not good not to give it to your grandmother, do you have enough money in your hand?" If there is enough, I will buy a share of the property for my grandmother. ”

Shang Mingjie nodded without thinking about it, "Enough, enough, grandmother prefers Zhuangzi, I will ask if I have land and buy one for my grandmother." ”

When the Shang family raided the house, except for Mrs. Shang and Xiao Fang's family, who were able to take out part of the dowry, the rest of the property was all copied, and the second Mrs. Shang was copied the cleanest, except for some jewelry on her body, there was no property left.

Over the years, in addition to receiving twenty taels of monthly silver per month, she had to go to the public every time she spent money, although she needed to buy very few things, but the feeling of taking money from others was still very aggrieved.

Shang Mingjie will give her some every once in a while, but not much, in the final analysis, not having an industry in his hands is just a panic.

Why does she always want to take care of the feed?

Not only because you can train your subordinates and control your daughter-in-law, but you can also get money and not rely on others.

When she was in charge of Shangfu, her hands and feet were not clean, which shows how much she loves money.

So as soon as her son mentioned it, she became excited and asked as calmly as possible, "Where did you get so much money from your daughter-in-law?" ”

Shang Mingjie didn't refute, but just added, "I also made some money doing business with my eldest brother." ”

Mrs. Shang knew that maybe Lin Yubin subsidized some.

In this case, it is not good to open a shop with too high a cost, so as not to be unable to turn over, she thought about it and said: "In this case, let's open a ready-to-wear shop, involving gold and silver jewelry, the cost is too high." ”

"Then I'll start asking people to find a shop tomorrow, and my mother will take a look when she arrives."

Second Mrs. Shang nodded, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is this property recorded in your name and temporarily managed by me, or is it ......?"

Shang Mingjie smiled, "Since it was bought for my mother, it is naturally recorded in my mother's name and counted as your private property." ”

Mrs. Shang Er breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with him: "I only have a son like you, and my things will not be given to you in the future, so I will take care of them for you for the time being." ”

Shang Mingjie smiled, he didn't care, for him, everything that could be solved with money was a trivial matter.

Second Mrs. Shang no longer thought about tossing, the family was a lot more harmonious, Shang Mingjie felt comfortable, his eyebrows and eyes were stretched, but he was not as bored as before.

He has never valued money, so he simply kept only part of it and continued to hand it over to Shang Mingyuan for investment, and spent the rest.

Mrs. Shang got a shop, Mrs. Shang got a small village, and even Shang Danju received a small courtyard, which she could rent to others.

Or if you don't want to rent it, you can also change it into another courtyard and go out to live for a while.

And Mrs. Yang also received a gift, and she couldn't help but sigh at Shang Mingjie's intimacy.

Even Mrs. Yang had a gift, and Lin Yubin and her two sons naturally had it.

However, they are not an industry, but Shang Mingjie specially invited craftsmen to make toys for them, which are wooden birds and wooden horses made according to the book, and can be assembled by themselves.

And Lin Yubin is a pair of jade bracelets, which Shang Mingjie occasionally saw when he went to choose a shop for his mother, which is a very beautiful mutton fat white jade.

Knowing that she liked jade, Shang Mingjie bought it with all the rest of the money, and borrowed some from Shang Mingyuan.

Lin Yubin was pleasantly surprised when she saw the jade bracelet, and sighed after touching it: "My aunt likes jade the most, especially mutton fat jade, if she sees this pair of jade bracelets, she will also like it." ”

Shang Mingjie scratched his head and said, "It's a pity that there is only one pair of jade bracelets, and they can only be given to you." ”

Lin Yubin glanced at him and said, "What a fool, I didn't let you buy it for my aunt, can't I buy it?" ”

Shang Mingjie smiled.

Lin Yubin put the jade bracelet on his hand, looked at it and said with a smile: "It looks good, but it must be very expensive, you make so much money doing business with your eldest cousin?" After buying so many things, he even had the money to buy me a bracelet. ”

The price of this pair of bracelets is no less than that of a shop.

Shang Mingjie smiled calmly: "It's gone now, but there should be an income when it comes to the New Year." ”

"Then you have to thank your eldest cousin, whoever makes money is as easy as you, as long as you invest money, you don't care about everything, you will have money after the New Year."

Shang Mingjie smiled and did not excuse himself.

He knows that he has no business skills, but the eldest brother is very talented, and sometimes the eldest brother needs to use his prestige to do something.

Everyone in the family has gifts, the atmosphere is better, and Mrs. Shang Er no longer recites Buddha or scriptures every day, and pulls Mrs. Yang to see her shop whenever she is free, but more often she goes to see it by herself.

She also knew that unless they moved out of the Lin Mansion and went back to the Shang Mansion, it would be almost impossible for her to snatch the housekeeping power from Lin Yubin.

Take a step back, it's just snatched over, in the case that most of the people in Manfu are descendants of the Lin family, who will listen to what she says?

It's just a violation of yang and yin.

Therefore, it is best to hold the industry in your own hands.

Mrs. Shang was old, and she was happy that her children and grandchildren gave her things, but she was impatient to take care of it, so she asked Shang Mingjie to choose a village head and threw it to him.

She just teases the children every day.

In this bustle, Xia received, Suzhou harvested, and Lin's Zhuangzi harvested a large amount of grain.

Lin Yubin went back to the other courtyard to deal with it, and released a part of the grain, and most of the rest was stored and left for the year before the year, and then released in batches at the beginning of spring and March and April.

This has become a tradition of the Lin family.

And this year, the imperial court also bought a batch with her to enrich the treasury.

This year has been quite smooth, except for a few small places with drought and floods, most areas are peaceful, including Chudi, which has only just survived the war.

This year, the imperial court will finally send a batch of relief grain to that side, and in the future, it will be up to them to be self-sufficient.

Fortunately, the roads damaged by the war were basically repaired, and through the official roads, it was convenient for all kinds of materials to come and go, and the Li Fan Yuan had set up a mutual market at the junction of Jingnan and Shu, and the people of the two places on the border had additional income, and life gradually improved.

Although there are still many people who suffer from hunger and cold, very few actually starve to death and freeze to death.

Under the special management of Liang and Shu, the relationship between the two countries is not bad now, especially the people of the two places at the border pass are originally Chu people, and even the soldiers of the two countries stationed in the two countries are recruited from Chu locally.

When the two sides meet, except for the different clothes, they are all in the Chu language, and then again, hey, not only was it a family five hundred years ago, which relative of your family still went out from our place, we are distant relatives.

In this case, there is almost no conflict between the two places.

Unlike other borders, although they are Liang people or Shu people, they always feel that they are Chu people in their hearts.

So who is okay to go to war with their own compatriots?

Xiang Shan naturally discovered this, and originally wanted to transfer some people from Lin Xin, but thinking about it, what is important now is peace between the two countries, and this kind of small exchange between the soldiers in private is more conducive to the relationship between the two countries.

Therefore, after thinking about it, he let it go, and only repeatedly demanded that his military information not be leaked to other countries.

Emperor Shu was originally worried that the Liang State would use troops against Shu in order to quickly dominate the world, but he didn't expect Liang Guoan to be quiet and quiet, and he looked like he loved peace and would never start a war.

You must know that the Liang State is now the strongest country, and the Shu State has been seriously consumed in the war against Chu, he feels that if he is the Liang Emperor, he will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue.

But I didn't expect to wait, the border was peaceful, and there was not even the least quarrel on both sides, and I heard that the soldiers on both sides would meet to drink flower wine in the mutual market.

Emperor Shu: "......"
