Bianjing City Wai Guanyi.

After settling down with his clansmen, he began to count the family's savings.

The more he counted, the more worried he became, and said to himself:

"The Song people are too greedy, if they continue like this, they can only sell horses."

Didn't move the dream:

"What the hell is my father going to do?"

"Didn't Uncle Zhongjing already report to the imperial court?"

"Thanks to him for not taking care of it, otherwise Daddy's previous behavior would have been detrimental to our foothold in the Great Song Dynasty."

He shook his head and said:

"Cao Bin's power position is too low, if I put all my family wealth on him, the imperial court will give me a state capital at most."

"In that case, my family will soon decline."

"And you are the most beautiful flower in Helan Mountain, I am proud of not moving home, how can I easily follow him?"

Wuximeng pondered for a moment and said, "But he is a close confidant of Master Pang, and he can directly influence Master Pang's decision." ”

He shook his head and said:

"Although he is Pang Ji's son-in-law, he is not Pang Ji himself after all."

"Let's take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty this time, at least like the She family in Linzhou, we must be able to guard one place for generations, and we must have a solid backer in the imperial court."

"And you! My daughter, the most beautiful flower in Helan Mountain, is my most important support. ”

The She family he said was the maiden family of She Lao Taijun of Tianbo Mansion, and Taizu had personally promised that the Zhizhou of Linzhou could be hereditary by the She family, which was equivalent to a small warlord.

If it was before, if I didn't dream of hearing this, maybe I didn't care, but I would have a sense of responsibility.

And now, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart......

The next day, Cao Bin first went to the political hall to hand in the task, and then went to the Foreign Affairs Institute to sign in, and then returned to the Zhongjing Waiting Mansion.

Sending an envoy to Western Xia was a major event, and he had to attend the court meeting and accept the emperor's personal inquiry before the official end of this errand.

The midsummer of the Song Dynasty was a bit difficult, and I was already covered in sweat just after going out for a walk.

Under Zhang Zhenniang's service, Cao Bin changed into a cool gauze dress, and moved a rattan chair to go to the garden to cool off.

Seeing Zhang Zhenniang's sullen look, she couldn't help asking:

"Sister Zhen, what's wrong? Could it be that he was unhappy about the fate? ”

"As I said, this seven-grade 'widow' is just a low-grade name."

"If I make meritorious contributions in the future, I will naturally earn my life back, don't worry."

The rank of the Song Dynasty was divided into:

Mrs. Yipinguo, Mrs. Jun, Mrs. Sanpin, Gongren, Gongren, Wuyiren, Six, and Seventh.

If she is sealed, although she is a concubine, she will have the same salary and treatment as court officials.

is qualified to participate in the queen's holiday banquet, and can also interact with the relatives of the officials of the DPRK and China, and no one dares to underestimate it.

At yesterday's dinner, Cao Bin gave the seven people to Du Shi Niang.

If you want to keep the fire in your backyard, you must follow the rules even at home, and you can't arrange it according to your preferences.

Du Siniang was the first woman to enter the house, and in order of priority, this position should also be given to her first.

Yesterday, Master Li and Zhang Zhenniang did not show anything unusual.

Why aren't you happy today?

Seeing Cao Bin say this, Zhang Zhenniang hurriedly waved her hand and said:

"No, uncle, I'm not sad about this, and I don't dare to hope for the position of a wife."

Saying that, she was quite ashamed and said, "I think I am too stupid......"

After inquiring in detail, Cao Bin understood.

It turned out that when Zhang Zhenniang first entered the house, she chose two properties, an antique gold and stone shop and a brocade village.

The antique gold and stone shop is okay, and it can make a lot of money every month.

But the silk village is much more miserable, and since she took over, it has been losing money.

Even the profits of the antique shop were lost.

Watching Du Shi Niang and Li Shishi's industry make money day by day, Zhang Zhenniang was both envious and wanted to cry without tears.

In addition, during last night's banquet, Du Siniang danced and Master Li sang, which made Zhang Zhenniang even more ashamed.

Because she doesn't know anything but needlework.

But Hou Fu is a professional tailor, she can't be used at all, and she is set off stupid and stupid, so she is sad.

At this time, Du Siniang and others happened to walk in:

"Cao Xun helped Sister Zhen think of a way, we came up with a lot of ideas, but none of them worked, and Sister Zhen is about to go bankrupt."

Zhang Zhenniang's eyes were red and she begged:

"Uncle, you can take these two properties back to the mansion."

"In order to maintain the business, the slave family has already owed thousands of silver to the two younger sisters."

"If this continues, the slave family will not be able to live."

Seeing her like this, Cao Bin couldn't help laughing.

Eighth Sister Yang was so envious that her eyes were red,

"Cao Bin's property for you? How much does he have to buy and sell? ”

"Even if you sell it at a loss, you can get back a lot of silver, right?"

Without waiting for Zhang Zhenniang to explain, Cao Bin had already rolled his eyes:

"You still say that I am a gentleman, and I will sell my property if I lose some money? You're a loser! ”

"No wonder you're so poor that you jingle around."

Sister Yang was so ridiculed that her face turned red, and she said embarrassedly: "If you want to die, you are so poor that you are so poor that you jingle ......"

Du Shi Niang pulled Cao Bin and said, "Cao Xun, you don't want to sell Guanzi, hurry up and think of a way for Sister Zhen." ”

Cao Bin nodded and smiled: "I have a money-making business, which is very suitable for Sister Zhen." ”

As he spoke, he called a servant and told him to buy tools and materials.

Then, not too hot, he got up in the courtyard himself.

Ingredients such as peach gum and beef pith are mashed and then steamed with various flower petals.

Du Siniang was curious: "This is making rouge?" ”

Cao Bin nodded, and while explaining to Zhang Zhenniang, he concocted it, and after more than half an hour, he made several kinds of rouge.

Cao Bin wiped a little rouge very professionally and tasted it, then nodded with satisfaction:

"Which of you wants to try?"

Du Shi Niang dodged, worried: "It won't be poisonous, right?" ”

Cao Bin didn't care about her, and directly picked up Master Li's pretty face and smeared it, she didn't resist, but was willing.

Looking at Cao Bin's serious appearance, his eyes were full of sweetness.

Seeing such a situation, Du Siniang regretted it a little.

Eighth Sister Yang muttered: "A big man, tinkering with his daughter's things, is really not doing his job!" ”

Hu Sanniang nodded in agreement and said:

"I think Mrs. Yang is right, Uncle should practice martial arts more."

The rouge made by Cao Bin has both blush, contouring, and lipstick, which is a complete set.

"It's a good color, it's so beautiful."

As the makeup gradually became ready, Du Siniang was already amazed, and her face was full of incredulity.

"I didn't expect Cao Hao to be good at making rouge."

She couldn't wait to stretch her neck and let Cao Bin operate on her face.

Master Li touched his cheek, and hurriedly took a bronze mirror and took a photo, his eyes full of joy.

At this time, Sister Yang had already reached out to snatch the rouge, and Hu Sanniang did not show weakness, only the two of them acted the fastest.

Du Shi Niang pouted and said: "Say one thing, do another, it's really ......."

Cao Bin asked Zhang Zhenniang at this time: "Sister Zhen, do you think this rouge can make money?" ”

Zhang Zhenniang nodded again and again: "The rouge made by Uncle is excellent, and it will definitely make women all over Tokyo flock to it." ”

Cao Bin nodded and said, "That's fine, I'll paint you a few more paintings, and ensure that your antique shop will also make a lot of money......"
