Chapter 111: Li's Gold Shop?
Li Yong promised Li Xueyan to make a new set of jewelry for her, and then dragged his tired body back to Li's house, but when he returned home, he was once again asked for a set of jewelry for each person at home, and was let go. Later, the continuous improvement of steel technology, although it could not be done like that of later generations, but in this era, without the blasting of gunpowder, coupled with the locksmith's made lock inlaid in it, a proper copy of the future insurance, the treasury of Xishan Bank has already been installed with this kind of steel, but the matter of the gold shop is usually busy with Li Yong to forget, this time Changle's and the ceremony is a wake-up call for him, plus today's free publicity, Xishan's new exquisite jewelry will definitely be sought after by those nobles, the idea has been decided, Li Yong, but in terms of candidates, he originally wanted to hand them over to Zheng Liwan and Wu Cao, but he thought that the two of them had enough things now, and they couldn't be busy, so Li Yong's desire for talents increased even more, but the students of Xishan University Hall had not been cultivated yet, so he was very helpless. So in the past few days, when he was worrying about the gold shop, Li Xueyan suddenly came to him and asked her jewelry, Li Yong's eyes lit up, why did he forget her? How can I say that she is also my future second wife, so Li Yong looked at the glamorous and moving Li Xueyan like a weasel seeing a chicken, but I can't say that Li Xueyan is indeed beautiful, with fair skin and a tall person of one meter and seventy, convex and backward, thin where it should be thin, and big where it should be, if it is placed in the future generations, it will be a proper model, Li Xueyan was also frightened by Li Yong's eyes, although she had already been engaged to Li Yong, but after all, she was not married, although the Tang Dynasty men and women were open, but after all, she was a child of the royal family, Educated by the royal family, so she shyly thought that Li Yong was going to do something to her, Li Yong looked the tall Li Xueyan up and down, and made a strange sound of "tsk~" from time to time, Li Xueyan was also looked at by him, and said angrily.
"What are you doing? Haven't seen enough? ”
Looking at Li Xueyan who was blushing, Li Yong was also a little embarrassed, he touched his head and said.
"Snow goose, I'm sorry, I can't help but see you with such a perfect body, I have something here, I don't know if you want to do it?"
Li Xueyan immediately turned red when she heard that peerless face, and even her ears were red, thinking that she was really annoying, we are not married yet, how can we do that? But it doesn't seem to be impossible, it's just a little sorry for Changle's girl, if Li Yong knew what this girl thought, he would definitely die happily, but unfortunately he didn't know that what he said could make Li Xueyan have such a big ambiguity.
"I'm sick of it, but it's not good in broad daylight?"
"It's just daylight, so you can see clearly."
"You're so annoying......"
One didn't know what was wrong with what he said, and the other was already ashamed to think about it after hearing this, Li Xueyan's ears were red, and he lowered his head and played with his fingers, but he was extremely looking forward to it, but in exchange for Li Yong opened one box after another, and then took out a gold necklace from it, the pendant of the gold necklace was still a vivid wild goose, Li Yong picked up the chain and came to Li Xueyan, at this time Li Xueyan lowered his head and didn't find out what Li Yong was doing. only knew that Li Yong had already walked in front of her, she felt that her heart was about to jump out, and her red face was very beautiful, but Li Yong didn't notice it, and thought that the summer was too hot, Li Xueyan felt hot, but he didn't look at his pig brain, Li Xueyan was wearing the coolest big-sleeved shirt, thin as light wings of leno made of clothes, no matter how you look at it, it won't be hot, and when Li Xueyan was at a loss, Li Yong wrapped his hands around her swan-like white snow neck, and then put the necklace on her, Then took a step back and looked at the necklace around Li Xueyan's neck, the snow-white skin made her look more gorgeous, and Li Xueyan saw Li Yong retreating, she was also slightly stunned, she reacted, she was already wearing a thing around her neck, she took her hand up and looked at it, and was also deeply attracted by the gold necklace, especially the pendant of the wild goose, it was simply perfect, Li Yong quickly pulled her to the full-length mirror in the study, so that Li Xueyan's shyness that had retreated slightly came back again, and thought that Li Yong was going to pull her away. However, when she came to the full-length mirror, looking at herself in the mirror, especially the gold necklace around her neck and the beautiful wild goose pendant hanging in front of her chest, she began to constantly look at the mirror left and right, and she had already forgotten all those shameful things. This combination simply blinded Li Yong's pair of dog eyes, looking at Li Yong's stupid appearance of drooling in a daze, Li Xueyan laughed out loud "poof~", and Li Yong said stupidly.
"It's beautiful, it's fairy-like."
"Really? Am I beautiful or am I long? ”
, send a proposition? How dare Li Yong say it, if he dares to say that it is beautiful, not to mention that Changle in the palace killed him, and the few people in the family still didn't tear him alive, seeing that Li Yong didn't dare to talk, Li Xueyan didn't embarrass him, continued to look in the mirror and carefully fiddle with his headdress, and kept going to Li Yong's desk to dress up with some other jewelry one by one, what kind of wrist gold bracelet, or can be directly inserted into the hair bun, the gold flower is especially under her meticulous arrangement, no more, no less just to perfectly decorate the hair bun, In this way, Li Yong is even more determined that Li Xueyan is the best person in charge of the gold shop, her natural model figure, and the perfect support of these gold and silver jewelry, is a living signboard.
"Snow Goose, what I told you just now is that I want to open a gold shop that focuses on these gold and silver jewelry, and I want to help you take care of it, what do you think?"
Li Xueyan was also stunned when she heard this, it turned out that he was talking to himself about this just now? Embarrassed, knowing that he would be wrong about Li Yong's meaning, this made Li Xueyan very embarrassed, and he didn't dare to look at Li Yong, and Li Yong thought that she didn't want to do it, and he was also very anxious, because he knew that there was no suitable candidate for Li Xueyan, and Li Xueyan noticed Li Yong's anxious look, both of them were silent, and Li Xueyan finally calmed down, she found that Li Yong was anxiously waiting for her reply, Li Xueyan thought about it carefully, although I don't know why he suddenly handed over this family property to himself, But she still wants to help Li Yong from the bottom of her heart, after all, it is her family's industry, and if she marries in the future, she will definitely help him take care of some of the family's industries, although now Zheng Liwan and Wu Cao are already taking care of all Li Yong's industries, and even the submissive Wu Shun is also taking care of a theater, and the county lord of his own dynasty is not less than a few of them? So she nodded at Li Yong and said.
"Okay, but I'll say it first, I don't understand anything, don't blame me if I lose when the time comes."
Hearing that Li Xueyan agreed, Li Yong happily jumped up to hug her and kiss her, but later he found that this was not good, so he endured it.
"It's okay, it's all your own industry, I have confidence in you, as for manpower, you can ask Liwan or Wu Cao for it."
"Okay, what is the name of our gold shop?"
"You're the boss lady, you can take one."
"Then it's called Li's Gold Shop, do you think it's okay?"
Hearing this name, Li Yong's head was full of black lines, and my surname is Li, and you are also surnamed Li, is it just casual? But he didn't think it mattered, she was happy.
"Okay, you can do it if you like."
In fact, Li Yong resisted in his heart, but who made her his own woman? Who made her the picker? After discussing, Li Xueyan looked in front of the mirror for a while before leaving the Li Mansion wearing a gold jewelry, and when she returned to the Hejian County Palace, after everyone saw her golden jewelry, it was as if they were all fixed by a spell, just like Li Yong at that time, the tall figure with these jewelry was like a fairy, and a rough voice came out of the house at this time.
"Snow Goose is back? Hey? ”
Li Xueyan's father Li Xiaogong walked out of the house, and saw his bejeweled daughter, he was also stunned, but he couldn't say that his daughter was really a fairy under this dress, the old man touched the beard of his chin to hit Li Xueyan in front of him, and began to look up and down, left and right, Li Xueyan also generously opened his hands and slowly turned around in front of his father, showing off in front of the old man, Li Xiaogong was also attracted by his daughter's jewelry, this workmanship is really exquisite, Even the craftsmen in the palace can't make such beautiful jewelry, Li Xueyan said with a smug smile in front of her father.
"Father, how's it going? Isn't it good-looking? This was designed by Li Yong for his daughter. ”
Li Xiaogong naturally knew that Li Yong had made it, because he had seen it in Changle and Lu Li, and now he could make such a thing in the entire Tang Dynasty, but when he heard Li Yong's name, he was in the same mood as Li Er, and his good daughter was brought by him with flowers and pots, although he was a flat wife, but he also wanted to save face, the dignified lord of Hejian made a flat wife, Li Xiaogong seemed to have been trampled by 10,000 divine beasts, and under Li Xueyan's soft and hard work, he reluctantly agreed to marry Li Yong, This also made him a joke among the nobles of Chang'an for a while, but for the happiness of his daughter, the old man also fought hard, probably because Li Xueyan's mother died soon after giving birth to her, he was training Li Er outside at that time, and his wife's death was not able to come back, which is also his preference for Li Xueyan This is how it is, as for his sons, they were all kicked by him to serve in the army elsewhere, and the officials went to the officials.
"Yes, yes, that kid has a heart, what do you think? Don't have to work anymore? ”
The servants and maids who were fixed immediately lowered their heads and hurried away, Li Xueyan smiled and took the old man to the house, and laughed with him, Li Xiaogong also happily talked and laughed with his baby daughter, the two returned to the house like this, and after chatting for a while, Li Xiaogong suddenly asked Li Xueyan very seriously.
"Snow goose, you have these things, the one in the palace, right?"
"Dad, don't worry, the one in the palace, you don't know the relationship between Changle's sister and her daughter."
"Dad asked you because he knew about your relationship with her."
"Alas, Dad, do you still remember the events of that year?"
"Just say if she has it."
As for Li Xiaogong, he didn't want to have anything to do with the palace, mainly because he knew that his wife was seriously ill and wanted to come back, but Li Er ordered him not to return to Beijing, which caused him to even see his wife for the last time, although he was Li Er's cousin, it was because of this incident that he and Li Er gradually drifted away, and finally he resigned all his official positions and only did a Zongzheng of Zongzheng Temple who didn't care about anything. The royal family's affairs are unclear, and they are even more chaotic.
"Sister Changle naturally has, you don't know Li Yong's personality, he is different from others, he is not divided between us, and this time he is also going to open an industry, that is, how to sell these gold and silver jewelry, and he asked his daughter to take care of this industry."
Li Xiaogong put down the tea bowl in his hand in fright, looked at his daughter like a ghost, and asked uncomfortably.
"What? He asked you to take care of this gold jewellery business? Do you know it's all gold, how can he have so much gold? ”
In the Tang Dynasty, gold and silver were not in circulation, so gold and silver were very scarce in the market, most of them were in the hands of the royal family and nobles, and they would not be taken out under normal circumstances, unless the family reached the time of life and death, these things would be used, and now Li Yong took these things out and sold them, which made Li Xiaogong re-evaluate him as a future son-in-law, not to mention Li Yong, how did he have so much gold and silver, even if he did, why didn't he keep it, but took it out and sold it, in fact, he didn't know, with the help of Li Yong, The gold and silver craftsmen of Xishan have long mastered the dissolution of gold and silver at high temperatures, so that the gold and silver that melt into water are poured into the carved mold, so that those gilt hollow lifelike gold and silver jewelry will appear, those who are still primitive craftsmen carved by hand on gold and silver can compare, not only the consumables are serious, but also time-consuming, so even if there is gold and silver jewelry sold at that time, it is very rare, on the basis of hollowing, Li Yong's gold and silver jewelry can be completed with very few materials to complete exquisite jewelry, It's like the traditional craft to make a gilded hollow golden phoenix hairpin like the day of Changle and Luli, not to mention whether they can make it, even if it is done, Li Yong can make it with thirty taels of gold, and they need at least a pound or more to come out, so this comparison, the gap comes out, the most important thing is that because gold and silver are not in circulation, these prices are uncertain, to put it bluntly, there is no accurate number, how much is how much, it is worth more than copper money, such a BUG, If Li Yong doesn't make it, he will be a fool.
"My daughter doesn't know, but he has already made people prepare, and her daughter has promised him."
Li Xiaogong was still thinking about this gold shop, because he also smelled that this was a good deal, so he said to Li Xueyan.
"In this way, if you ask Li Yong, you will say that Dad is also interested in his industry, can Dad do it with him?"
Li Xueyan didn't know why her father was suddenly so interested in this matter, but she still agreed, after all, it was her own father, the next day, Li Xueyan came to Li Mansion again, her gold jewelry was naturally worn, the servants and maids of Li Mansion saw her, they all saluted her and called her second lady, but Li Xueyan was used to it, she also greeted them with a smile, she knew that these people were all from Xishan, they were all people of Li Yong's fiefdom, and they were also a group of people who escaped death. So she is kind-hearted and doesn't want other princesses to look down on them like the princess and county lord, but respects them very much, in fact, everyone in the Li Mansion likes Li Yong and these ladies very much, and those ladies are also very good to them, never beating and scolding, and even treating them as family members. Li Xueyan brought her father's words to Li Yong, who was sleeping lazily in the yard, and Li Yong agreed directly after listening to it.
"Of course you can, you can tell our father, I will let half of the shares come out, half for one person, as for how much money to invest, you and Liwan and they will calculate, but you must be responsible for the operation, your father is only responsible for dividends and does not participate in management, if you agree, then sign a contract."
So Li Xueyan returned to the palace with the number of shares calculated with Zheng Liwan, and told her father what Li Yong said word for word. With the help of Zheng Liwan, Li Xueyan's Li Gold Shop officially began to decorate the shop in the best location in the West Market, and Li Yong has always been obsessed with the name of the store, but what can be done, he has promised her, and it is not easy to regret it, so Li Yong is tired now, destroy it.
