If you have a pair of eyes, looking down on Jinyangjing from the gloomy clouds this night, you may be able to see the Chinese lanterns held high in the palace of the King of Chu, the colorful flags are gorgeous, and the groom's face has been cold, perfunctory and staggered with the guests; After the bride in the new room who had removed the phoenix crown and the curtain accepted the prostrate kowtow of the maids led by Lang Xing, she was holding Lang Xing's hand and saying polite words, with a gentle smile on the corner of her lips, but her eyes were full of concern; may be able to see that in the lonely courtyard of the West Garden of the Royal Palace, Aunt Zhi is whispering to Mingyue, one looking sad and the other secretly plotting; You must also be able to see Xiao Xie's eyebrows dancing to accept the polite congratulations of the nobles, the old princess happily chattered with Princess Kang and other female relatives, Yijing suddenly got up and found a quiet place, sipping tea alone, and soon Wei Zhao came over, and the two talked happily.

Of course, you can also see the conspiracy and trickery that is sprouting in the Qianrao Pavilion.

There is also a courtyard in the outer city, where the anxious Liao Da and Huang Tao sighed relatively.

Or Zhen's Mansion, Mrs. Zhen, who was invited but did not go to the palace for a banquet, sat alone in the warm pavilion, firmly pressed the clothes that Zhen Lian was wearing when she was an infant to her chest, and after the tears in her eyes dried up, she undoubtedly revealed resentment and unwillingness.

How many people's joys, sorrows, life and death, honor and disgrace are brewing quietly and silently.

The wheel of fate slowly turns, leading to an unpredictable future.

A little later, the banquet gradually dispersed, and some people said goodbye one after another, but the groom who should have been "flower candles in the cave room" was frequently greedy for cups, so that the guests who stayed at the banquet such as the king of Nanyang County became more and more interested, and attacked in groups, Yu Zhou still did not refuse, which made the two concubines look at each other, one of them asked the eldest brother of the groom, Yu Feng, for advice: "Let Erlang drink like this again, you have to get drunk, for fear of snubbing the bride...... How is it good? ”

The three princes at the same table smiled slightly, glanced at Yu Zhou, and then looked at Yu Feng.

"The second brother has always been drunk for a thousand cups, so there is no need to worry." Yu Gebu also smiled slightly.

Suddenly, he got up and turned to go out.

The third prince followed a few steps: "Yuanyang-"

The four princes, who were talking to King Fu, looked at this side, and raised their eyebrows.

In the inner house, the ladies also said goodbye, Yi Jing personally sent the reluctant Wei Zhao to leave with Wei's aunt and uncle, and went back to Guan Suiyuan directly, and found that Yu Feng had already returned to the house one step ahead of her, and seemed to have washed, scattered her hair, leaning on the kang to look at a stack of thick papers, and was extremely surprised: "Why are you so early?" Although you are not the protagonist today, there are a lot of gentlemen here, can you let you go so early? ”

In fact, he was really almost tripped by the three princes, and the four princes followed, but dragged the three princes into the banquet hall to honor the groom, so he was able to get out.

"Today, the second brother has to fight for his own strength, but I don't need to block the wine for him, but my wine is drunk by the four highnesses." The old god of the Yu Pavilion is here.

Yi Jing was even more surprised: "How can the Fourth Highness block the wine for you?" ”

"The princess guesses."

Yijing leaned back: "I can't guess...... Could it be that you have done something for the Fourth Highness? ”

Yu Feng didn't sell Guan Zi anymore, and smiled slightly: "A trivial matter, someone in the Chen family has taken a fancy to the lack of a child in the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, this position has been personally granted by the Holy Lord, and Qin Xiang has no choice but to entrust me." ”

Yi Jing raised his eyelids slightly: "The Yu Pavilion Department can never ignore this kind of thing...... "Could it be that he has already chosen the importance of helping the four princes?" Yijing didn't know the character of the four princes, she didn't pay attention to it at all in that life, and she couldn't pay much attention in this life, in the end, she was a woman in the house, and even if she had some contact with the princes, she was not very familiar with it.

However, the four princes can arrange for the assassination of their siblings by the dead, and they should also be ruthless people, and besides, although the mother of the four princes is a noble concubine, the saint does not seem to have much preference for this son, and the fourth prince was the first to be suspected when the prince was assassinated.

I was worried, and I slapped it on the head.

"Don't think about it, the matter of the storage position is not figured out by the courtiers, I just did it this time, the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau is not involved in power, but it is a fat shortage, and the officials in charge have always been awarded to the emperor's relatives and relatives, or the sons and nephews of the favor, just to let them get the benefits of wealth and silver, it is for compassion, but the princess thinks about it, how could His Royal Highness suddenly focus on this position at this time?" Yu Feng "succeeded in one blow", and seeing that Yijing was no longer worried, he leaned on the table and put the stack of papers in his hand on the kang table between the two.

Since the Eastern Ming Dynasty, most of the north including Kyoto no longer planted mulberry and raised silkworms, but planted white cotton, woven into white stacks, cut ready-to-wear, the cost is far lower than silk, although the nobles still love brocade clothes every day, but the people's demand for white stacks is also a lot.

Kyoto around the mulberry field silk sharply reduced, Jinyang weaving and dyeing bureau gradually into nothing, from Jiangsu and Zhejiang and other places to collect and transport silkworm cocoon silk brocade costs are too high, and there are thousands of looms maintenance, craftsman costs and other consumption, often weaving and dyeing bureau out of a silk, far more than the price of buying from the market several times.

After the founding of Dalong, the weaving and dyeing bureau was abolished to "recruit" and "forcibly recruit" craftsmen, etc., but the implementation of "collar weaving" mode of production, but there was a silk weaving task, which was undertaken by the weaving bureau to find a handicraft workshop with exquisite weaving skills, and the finished products were purchased by the weaving and dyeing bureau and sent to the court.

Jiangnan and other places are important places for the production of sericulture silk, and the local weaving bureau is responsible for the silk used by the royal family and the clan, and the Kyoto weaving and dyeing bureau is only responsible for the use of the Son of Heaven to reward hundreds of officials.

However, with the cotton ribbon silk in the north, the first-class craftsmen gradually lost, the silk weaving workshops decreased sharply, and the ordinary silk weaving and dyeing bureau could still supply in the way of "collar weaving", such as Yunjin and other precious silk Kyoto workshops could not do anything, so most of the weaving and dyeing bureaus would purchase from the major silk merchants at market prices.

I learned a little about these things through the Di Bao, and I knew a lot from the mouths of the shopkeepers, and then I thought about it a little, and suddenly thought that the Liao family was not the main silk?

"The four princes want to benefit the Liao family?" Someone was like an initiation: "This is the trap you buried? ”

Seeing that Yijing guessed so quickly, Yu Feng was slightly stunned, shook his head and smiled: "I really can't hide everything from you." Only then did Yi Jing look at the stack of land deeds, and said: "The New Year is approaching, the palace needs to reward hundreds of officials, Yunjin Ayaluo is in great demand, Liao Dacai was stripped of most of his family wealth, and he was divided into four highnesses' 100,000 dividends, which is already stretched, and ordinary ways can no longer solve his urgent needs. ”

Seeing the number of acres of mulberry fields, Yijing quickly calculated an approximate one, and his eyes widened: "These are ......"

"Ours."

View: !!

Son, you are really a rich man.

"All in the Jiangnan area, most of the medium-sized silk weaving workshops are now the finished products for silk merchants to sell to various places, there are also large scale of famous self-operated shops, many small workshops are relying on the" collar weaving "profits, we have so many mulberry fields, has always been with large workshops to cooperate more, not long ago there was a shopkeeper suggestion, it is better to cooperate directly with silk merchants, we supply silkworm cocoons to the workshop at a lower price, the workshop must be with the designated silk merchant deed for the contract, so that the silk merchant can also share part of the dividends to us."

In fact, going around this circle, making profits is only one of the purposes, the key is to dig a pit for Liao Da, so that he can scatter all his family wealth, and it will be difficult to turn over.

Yi Jing understood after listening to these three words, but he still had doubts: "Liao Da took over this transaction from the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, even if you can't buy silk from the workshop you cooperate with us, you can choose another workshop." ”

Yu Feng is in the old god: "In the end, it is a royal thing, of course, it cannot be supplied by an unfamous workshop, the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau is subordinate to the Ministry of Industry, and the purchase of silk from which workshop needs to be reviewed and limited by the Ministry of Industry, this time Liao Da received this fat difference from the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, he never thought that the workshop had no goods, and he could not pay the difference, maybe he would be accused of bullying the king, not to mention that the person in charge of this matter is still the people of the Chen family, Huang Tao will never offend the mother family of the Four Highnesses for this, they have no way out, they can only buy from the silk merchants who cooperate with us at a high price, However, the money allocated by the household department to the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau is based on the market price, and even if His Royal Highness wants to help Liao Da, it is impossible to make up for the difference by himself. ”

To put it bluntly, the prince of the world has cut off Liao Da's purchase channels, and this is not an ordinary business, the buyer is the government, it is the royal family, Liao Da has received the silver from the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, and it must be delivered on time.

Even if the four princes were willing to help and stop the matter, the weaving and dyeing bureau would urgently look for other shops, and no one would dare to accept it.

Moreover, those shops with goods in their hands will be able to get Yu Feng's will, how can they shed this troubled water? It is impossible for the four princes to put the people of the mother clan on the guillotine for the sake of the Liao family.

If you don't follow the record and go to other weaving workshops to purchase, it is also a big crime to deceive the king.

Liao Da and a businessman may not know these powers, Huang Tao must know it, seeing the attitude of the four princes today, obviously he doesn't know that Liao Da has been struggling, which shows that Huang Tao just as Yu Feng expected, chose to swallow Huang Lian dumbly, and did this loss-making deal.

The little surplus money left in Liao Da's hands is afraid that he will have to lose it into the price difference.

What's even more wonderful is that the four princes have made a lot of effort from it, and they can't do without "dividends", it is estimated that Liao Da can only sell the shops in his hands in order to make money for the four princes.

If in the future, the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau still has to "take care" of Liao Da and let him undertake the task of purchasing silk in Jiangnan......

When Yi Jing thought of this, he couldn't help but feel pain for Liao Da.

"Tomorrow, the second brother and sister will have tea, can the princess prepare a tea ceremony?" Yu Feng suddenly asked again.

Yijing hadn't recovered from Liao Da's difficult situation yet, and nodded absentmindedly.

"Add this."

There was suddenly a box of things in front of Yijing.

"This is ......" Yijing was stunned, but saw that her family was very determined: "That's it!" ”

——

If the clouds have a pair of eyes, they will definitely be able to see the main hall of the Liao family at this time, and the anxious Huang Tao finally made up his mind, and slapped the case with a heavy palm: "Time is pressing, I can't hesitate any longer, if I delay the weaving and dyeing bureau......

Liao Da almost didn't cry: "The price difference is more than 100,000 yuan...... plus the bonus promised to the Four Highnesses...... Second master, can't you threaten those silk merchants? They're uniting to sit on the ground. ”

"Those people are also big businessmen, and they may not have no connections behind them, so our current situation ...... Alas, the saint cares about the people's livelihood and hates bullying people the most...... If the weaving and dyeing bureau comes forward, it can be forced to be levied at the market price, but we have already received the deed of the seal of the Ministry of Industry, how can there be an undertaker is us, but the weaving and dyeing bureau forces other merchants to sell at a reasonable price. Huang Tao also has a bitter face.

Liao Da finally cried: "But I don't have so much silver in my hands anymore......"

"I can only borrow money, deal with the urgent need first, and then transfer the shop in my hand to others." Huang Tao also felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.

"All these years of hard work can be folded in......"

"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, and now you can only keep safe first." Huang Tao gritted his teeth, and finally slammed his fist on the case.

"This can only make up the difference, the Fourth Highness ......"

Huang Tao had a layer of sweat on his forehead, and for a long time, he sighed: "There's no way, delay for a while, if you let the Fourth Highness know our situation, I'm afraid that Sanniang will be in a dangerous situation in the future...... If you can't do this well, how can Your Highness trust you and me in the future...... I have to hide it...... I have to ask my mother to help me in this matter, and she still has some dowry in her hand. ”

Weiguo Mansion, the Huang family, who had just returned to Herui Garden, was inexplicably flustered.

If the eyes on the clouds squint at this time, you can probably see that the banquet in the palace of the king of Chu has finally dispersed, Yu Zhoushen returned to the Jixia Hall where the new house is located, and saw Huang Jiangyue, who was dressed in a happy suit, stepped forward, but fell to the kang, kicked off his boots with two heavy feet, and the corners of his eyes were dim.

Even though Huang Jiangyue didn't have much expectation in her heart, her expression froze.

In front of the servant woman, Erlang, you can't leave me a little dignity?

asked the maids to retreat, and only let Lang Xing come forward with the decanting soup.

Yu Zhou took a sip of his hand, and with the strength of the wine, he slapped Lang Xing's hand away, and the whole bowl of soup was splashed on the bright red wedding dress of Huang Jiangyue, who couldn't dodge, and the black color soaked a large area.

Now both the master and the servant were pale.

Yu Zhou got up again, crooked and said to Jiang Yue: "I was caught off guard for a while, and I splashed Mrs. by mistake." But he kicked at Lang Xing: "I've been waiting for me all these years, and I still don't know my preferences?" If you don't wait, call Mingyue back...... What the? What does Madame mean...... Could it be that I have to go to Aunt Zhi's place today to find a proper maid to serve? ”

The wind and clouds moved, and a bend of the moon was revealed.

Isn't it like those smiling eyes?
