Back at the county lord's mansion, Zhuo Lao Er and Zhuo Er's sister-in-law were already waiting at the door.

Zhuo's second sister-in-law's eyes were red, and she laughed and cried: "You have been gone for three years, and you are finally back!" ”

The big egg Zhuo Changli and the second egg Zhuo Changyi also stepped forward to salute, and they all jumped up, and Zhuo Changli had the calmness of an adult.

The two of them also saluted each other with the three eggs Zhuo Qingyun seriously, which made people laugh.

Zhuo's second sister-in-law's daughter Zhuzhu is also five years old, her face is the same as Zhuo's second sister-in-law, fleshy, her smile is very sweet, her mouth is also sweet, and she calls her uncle and aunt affectionately, and she doesn't recognize her life at all.

After some pleasantries, everyone went into the house to talk.

Zhuo Lao Er looked at Zhuo Fan: "Daddy and mother haven't seen you for almost six years, I have already sent someone to pick them up, and I will definitely be able to arrive before the year." ”

"Not only my father, but also my eldest brother and sister-in-law."

Zhuo's second sister-in-law answered: "The eldest brother's little concubine, Hu Shi, is bent on coming to the capital with the eldest brother.

It is said that Jin Xue is also four years old this year, and he has not asked the third brother and you to say goodbye, and it is not like that. ”

Zhuo's second sister-in-law snorted: "When I don't know her plans, it's just that I see that the third brother and the third brother and sister have a lot of wealth, and I also want her daughter to follow suit!"

When the sister-in-law saw this, she simply proposed that the whole family come.

Daddy, we will definitely stay, and the eldest brother's family is afraid that they also have plans to settle in the capital. ”

Elemental Sakura nodded: "It's okay to come, if anything is close to the ground, you can take care of each other." ”

After a pause, Elemental Sakura couldn't help but ask, "It's been four years, and my sister-in-law only gave birth to one of the four eggs."

The eldest brother loves the Hu family so much, she only has one daughter under her knees, Jin Xue? ”

The Hu family was the boss of Ba Shangzhuo back then, and he was greedy for wealth and nobility.

Not only for the sake of wealth, but also for the sake of giving birth to a son.

Zhuo's second sister-in-law shook her head: "Maybe this is retribution."

I heard that my father and mother asked my eldest brother to go to the doctor a few times, but I didn't see anything wrong.

If he can't give birth to a son, the Hu family can only count on Jin Xue's daughter.

What can Jin Xue do if she stays in the countryside? Naturally, I want to bake you, with the name of the county lord and the niece of the marquis, you will also be able to find a good family in the future. ”

Elemental Sakura smiled and shook her head, It's too early to say this.

Moreover, she doesn't think it's better to find her in-laws in the capital than in Qingyu County.

There are many things in rich and noble families, and there are many poor women in the backyard.

Zhuo Lao Er said: "After you go to the North Star Mansion, Concubine Deng and King Fu's people often take care of Zhuo's pastry shop.

I didn't dare to admit their affection, so I gave generous gifts every time, or begged the people left by the Marquis of Dingxiang to help.

When you were about to come back, King Fu's cronies invited our family to come over to talk to us, how dare I go, I shirked everything. ”

Zhuo Lao Er was already shrewd, and after coming to the capital, Zhuo Fan and Elemental Sakura mentioned something, and Zhuo's pastry shop under his name also collected a lot of news.

In addition, the emperor, the queen mother and the marquis of Dingxiang all occupy a share of the beet sugar workshop, and he often manages the workshop and often contacts the dignitaries, can you still understand the situation in the capital, the purpose of Deng Guifei and King Fu?

He naturally heard about the third brother back then, and Deng Guifei and King Fu were not good at winning over the third brother and the third brother and sister, so they wanted to start from him.

If he really accepted the love of others, and even was a little confused and suffered from other people's calculations, the third brother and the third brother and sister had to get on the ship of King Fu even if they didn't want to.

Zhuo's second sister-in-law sighed: "The people in this capital talk and do things in a set way, and some people have the idea of me and the children.

I was annoyed, and I was afraid that I would step on some trap stupidly, so I simply went to your village to hide and be quiet.

I've also told them about the big eggs and the two eggs, no matter what, I can't get involved with the two of you, but fortunately, the two of them are like their fathers, and they are very shrewd. ”

Saying that, Zhuo's second sister-in-law sighed: "This capital is rich and rich, but the pressure is too great."

Thinking about you again, you are still dealing with the royal family, and it has been difficult all these years. ”

Zhuo's second sister-in-law later heard that the third brother was favored by Yun and the princess, and she sweated for the elemental cherry blossom in her heart.

Want to be her? I'm afraid that I will only be forced to die.

Now that the dispute between the crown prince is involved, even if she doesn't read any books, she knows that this kind of thing is very dangerous, and she can't make the slightest joke.

Elemental Sakura smiled: "Don't worry, it will be fine after a while." ”

Zhuo Fan glanced at the Elemental Sakura, and he was also curious about what his wife had planned.

On the day of the Emperor's Longevity Day, the Elemental Sakura entered the palace early.

The Emperor looked at the plan given to him by Elemental Sakura, and although he was confused, his intuition was a good thing:

"This ...... Not to mention the rest, it costs a lot of money to build roads. ”

Elemental Sakura explained: "Now that the tax revenue in various places has increased, the royal brother should invest some of it first, and then slowly take it back."

If you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and when the roads are repaired, will those good things in the mountains be transported out in time?

People who live in remote areas don't have to wait for the market to come out to take care of the business in the town and county?

Those hawkers who walk the streets and alleys, and the merchants who go to various places to receive goods, can they also go further? ”

Elemental Sakura's voice changed: "Of course, the road is repaired, and there is more than that.

Nowadays, there are too few post stations in various parts of the country, especially in remote areas, and there may not be one in several county seats.

If there is any news from below, or what decree the imperial brother wants to convey, it can't be conveyed in time, isn't this a delay?

If the roads to all parts of the country are repaired, the post stations will be scattered in every corner of the country......

Brother Huang, think about it, that scene ...... Is it beautiful or not? ”

The emperor thought about it for a while, it was indeed beautiful, but ......

"How much does it cost?"

The emperor made a bitter face: "Sister, the treasury is still poor, if you really do this, I'm afraid that I won't be able to fill in the old bottom of the Xuyou country!" ”

Elemental Sakura glanced at the emperor: "Who said that you have to take money from the treasury?" ”

Hearing this, the emperor immediately came to the spirit: "How do you say this?" ”

Elemental Sakura pointed to her plan, "This brings us to my second plan, the Shang Alliance.

Brother Huang, think about it, in the past few years, the people have eaten enough, do they have extra money in their hands, and they are more willing to spend money to buy things than in previous years?

When there are more people buying things, there will naturally be more merchants selling things.

However, now the whole country is inconvenient, the news is backward, and the merchants do not have a unified channel to inquire about the news from other places.

For example, if this year, the cane sugar cane in Cangyuan Province in the south cannot be sold out, and the beet sugar in the north is very out of stock.

What happens if the message doesn't work? ”

The emperor was very interested in business-related issues, and after hearing this, he thought about it and replied: "The price of beet sugar in the north will naturally increase if it is out of stock, and the cane sugar in the south will naturally have to be sold cheaply if it cannot be sold in many places." ”

Elemental Sakura nodded fiercely: "That's the truth!"

Brother Huang thought about it again, if the news from the north and south is connected, the cane sugar in the south can completely make up for the beet sugar vacancy in the north.

In this way, the cane sugar in the south does not have to lose money, and the people in the north do not have to spend a lot of money to grab beet sugar.

The Shang League is like the court that governs the entire Xuyou country, where there is a problem, it will be solved, but the court is to govern the people, and the Shang League is to govern the merchants.

The purpose of the imperial court in governing the people was to make the purses of the common people bulge, so that the treasury could also be rich.

The business alliance is to maximize the interests of businessmen all over the country, so that they will not be out of stock or pressed goods, and even drive the characteristic industries in remote places.

Brother Huang, think about it, if you become the president of the business alliance, you can not only sit and collect membership fees every year, but also hold a large-scale trade fair at a fixed time.

When the time comes, merchants from all over the country will gather, a dazzling array of goods, people who have heard the news, and even foreign businessmen who have come to visit......

Brother Huang, if the venue is successful, it may be able to develop into an international trade fair.

Without armed aggression, the imperial brother can also realize the coming of all nations! ”
