"Young Master Chen wants to order in our shop?"

Facing Shopkeeper Ding's surprised eyes, Young Master Chen nodded indifferently, "Yes, our Chen family's grocery store has always sold salt, but now the salt piled up in the shop can't be sold, so Young Master Ben wants to buy some goods in your store." ”

Shopkeeper Ding noticed that the other party's eyes did not evade, and his tone was full of sincerity, and he hesitated for a moment: "Young Master Chen should already know the rules in our shop, this piece of snowflake salt in Lingnan can only be sold for ten wen a catty, and the goods you buy in our store are thirty wen a catty, how do you earn silver?" Or are you looking to sell overseas? ”

"Haha!" Young Master Chen laughed and said: "Shopkeeper Ding is smart, Young Master Ben likes to deal with smart people, although our Chen family is not as good as the family in the Central Plains, but there are also a lot of family businesses, the Chen family also has a lot of industries in cities outside Lingnan, you don't have to worry about sales, with the reputation of this young master, snowflake salt will never be sold in Lingnan." ”

Shopkeeper Ding didn't agree immediately, but took a sip of herbal tea, and the bitterness in his mouth made his head sober a lot.

He put down the tea bowl, "Lingnan's herbal tea is good, it can not only clear heat and detoxify, but also refresh the mind." ”

"Shopkeeper Ding is used to drinking!" Young Master Chen looked at him with a smile, his expression was not in a hurry at all, as if he was sure that he would definitely agree.

Shopkeeper Ding noticed his expression, and when he saw that the other party was as immobile as a mountain, he admired it in his heart, and sure enough, his family background was calmer than his mud legs.

"As long as Young Master Chen can abide by the rules set by our princess, everything is easy to say, doing business is to welcome customers from all over the world, laugh at all kinds of wealth, and do not do business at the door, it is not Xia Ji's style of acting. Of course, the most important thing is to take a fancy to the character of Master Chen, and I hope you can do what you say and don't disappoint the princess. ”

"Haha, let's wait and see!" Young Master Chen raised his hand and hugged his fist at him.

Shopkeeper Ding immediately stood up and hugged his fists and saluted back, "Wait and see, sincere cooperation." ”

Young Master Chen was very satisfied with his attitude and was a knowledgeable person.

Next, the signing of the contract and the payment of the advance payment were very smooth, and when they were sent away, the shopkeeper Ding shook his head and turned back to the shop.

Since the opening of the salt shop, the whole city has become popular, and it can be said that the people of the whole city have been swept through without much effort, and it can be said that the household registration yamen of the city has not yet been clear about the salt shop.

The news spread to the villages and towns below, and many people came to the shop to ask, and Shopkeeper Ding reflected the question to Xia Jing.

As a last resort, Ye Fei and his team members, who had just finished the household registration in Fucheng, were sent by Xia Jing to the following towns to continue the census.

Take the village as a unit, issue a small book according to the household, and if you want to buy cheap snowflake salt in the future, you can only rely on a small book, and you have to make up for it according to the rules.

Prince Qian has naturally been paying attention.

No, it should be said that the entire royal palace is paying attention.

"Lord, Weichen has sent someone to find out, the princess has set up a salt farm in Linhai Town, and I don't know where she got the technology to use seawater to make snow-white snowflake salt, and now the people in the city eat snowflake salt from the princess's shop.

It can be said that since the opening of the princess's salt shop, the coarse salt in the whole city has been unsalable, to the point that no one cares.

Lord, you said, we don't need to invite the princess to come over to discuss, the family doesn't talk to each other, they all eat in the same pot, she can't leave you to drink some soup when she gets rich, right? ”

Mr. Zhang felt that his words were brazen and shameless, but there was no way, the prince managed Ruoda Lingnan but did not have overnight food, and he had no confidence in his heart.

Mr. Yan raised his eyes and glanced at Mr. Zhang, pursed his lips and did not open his mouth to persuade, he couldn't say the words of the robber's logic.

Prince Qian sat on the throne with a dark face and didn't say a word, and the people below couldn't figure out what he meant for a while?

Mr. Zhang said this with an open face, but he did not get the echo of others, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.

He coughed lightly: "Old Yan, what do you say?" ”

Mr. Yan was forced to say helplessly: "Lord Wang, Weichen heard that even the Chen family is looking for the princess to cooperate, it seems that it is really a big fat meat." ”

It makes everyone want to come up and take a bite.

Mr. Zhang nodded, looking like he was thinking about you: "Yes, it's a piece of fat, even the perverse young master of the Chen family has asked her to cooperate, you can imagine how many forces will stare at the princess in the future."

The most important thing is that we have been in Lingnan for a short time, many things are not clear, the clouds are covered with fog, and Weichen is afraid that the princess will step on the pit. ”

"That's it!" King Qian's face was so irritable that he couldn't hear them whispering in his ears, so he turned his head and instructed Anu: "Go and invite the princess over, and say that this king has something to find." ”

"Yes, the old slave will go." Anu glanced at a few people and stepped back.

I just hope that the princess knows the prince's intentions, and don't whip the prince.

When Xia Jing heard the word, she couldn't figure out what King Qian was looking for her for a while, and it was Anu, a personal eunuch, who personally invited her, so she didn't delay, so she followed her to the study.

Because the weather is too hot today, Xia Jing did not wear an inner skirt and an outer robe like other women of this era.

She is dressed in a light riding suit, simple, plain, capable and neat.

She sat down on the soft couch next to her, took a sip of the tea handed by Hongmei, and sat there waiting for them to speak.

King Qian sits on the throne, it is rare to sit upright today, if you look closely, you can find that he has lost some weight these days.

But even though he has lost some weight, his whole body is still fat, and fat people are afraid of heat.

"The princess seems to be very busy lately, and she hasn't been able to see your figure anymore."

Xia Jing pursed her lips and smiled, and said honestly: "Is there a difference whether you can see my figure or not?" Lord, you are not short of people to accompany you. ”

Red sleeves add fragrance, confidantes, not to mention ten hundred, five or six are there. The man who is not lonely still wants her to accompany him, dreaming!

King Qian: "."

He took a deep breath, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "Princess, is this the blame for the king snubbing you?" ”

Xia Jing: "."

Thinking back to what she just said, it really didn't mean anything other than telling the truth.

She rolled her eyes in her heart and poured a basin of cold water on him on the spot, "I hope you don't pretend to be sentimental." ”

King Qian nodded good-naturedly, "Oh, this king understands." ”

Mr. Zhang stroked his forehead: "."

The topic is a bit off the hook.

You husband and wife don't have to flirt in front of them.

Xia Jing couldn't stand his self-righteous eyes, and pushed the teacup aside, "Come to me to talk about something, I'll go back if it's okay." ”

"Oh." King Qian seemed to remember the purpose of coming to her, "This king heard that the princess has been busy with chores recently, and she seems to be enjoying it, so he thought of inviting the princess to come over and discuss, and we can make money together." ”

"Make money together?" Xia Jing's eyes rolled slightly, and she knew what they were thinking.

Stinky man, this concubine will listen to what you say about flowers today?

King Qian said confidently: "Yes, I heard that the princess set up a salt farm in Linhai Town, and now the salt eaten by the people of Fucheng is from your shop. ”

"Concubine Ben is afraid that you ate garlic early this morning, and your breath is quite loud!"

Xia Jing raised her eyebrows, glanced at the two gentlemen, and sneered: "In the past, I always heard that dignitaries and nobles like to play with empty gloves and white wolves. ”

The two gentlemen began to talk, and the old face of the ridiculed one turned red.

King Qian didn't care about the faces of the two gentlemen, he said disagreeably: "How can this king call the empty glove white wolf, let's join forces to become bigger and stronger and make you make more money, is this wrong?" ”

Xia Jing was too lazy to pay attention to him, and she didn't speculate for more than half a sentence.

King Qian saw Xia Jing tilt his face to the other side, and said shamelessly: "We are husband and wife, what you earn is not the king's, and the money earned by the king is not equal to yours, don't be so careless as a family, it's not beautiful if you care too much." ”

Xia Jing laughed angrily at King Qian's shameless logic, "What I earn is yours, the old lady solemnly declares to you today, what I earn is mine, don't think of robbing any of you robbers!" ”

King Qian: "No, what a robber."

Xia Jing waved her hand to interrupt him, and she snorted: "It is said that the old lady is in charge of the inner courtyard, and everything you earn is mine, but the old lady disdains your little silver, so please don't worry about my pocket!" ”

Not to mention King Qian, the shock in the hearts of the two gentlemen could not be expressed.

Looking at the princess's behavior during this period, the princess's impression in their minds is that she is dignified, generous, reasonable, discerning, and focuses on the overall situation.

It's just that they didn't expect that she valued money so much, which was unexpected.

Mr. Zhang was afraid that the couple would quarrel again, so he had to speak: "Princess, everything is based on the overall situation, Weichen saw that you built salt fields these days, lowered the price of salt, sent troops to suppress bandits, and thought about the people in everything." You and the prince joined forces to better build Lingnan, why do you refuse? ”

Xia Jing squinted slightly and asked, "Just because I saw that my mother did a few practical things, you think I'm a bully?" ”

"This" Mr. Zhang glanced at King Qian, then at Mr. Yan, and said a word of panacea, "You will be good when Lingnan is good!" ”

The importance of table salt cannot be overstated.

has his own salt pans in the fiefdom, and he doesn't have to worry about being stuck.

Xia Jing never thought of monopolizing Yantian by herself from the beginning.

To be honest, with such a long coastline in Lingnan, as long as they know the method, they can build countless salt pans, and it doesn't matter if they are taught how to dry sea salt.

But she couldn't see the attitude that King Qian should have, and they wanted to stand on the highest point of morality and kidnap her with morality, and she couldn't bear it.

What focuses on the overall situation, what Lingnan is good can she be good.

Even if Lingnan is not good, she can still live well!

"Don't talk to the old lady about the big reason, you have to know that women play tricks, it's useless to care about any big reason for you, if you want to get benefits, you have to pay, if you want to talk about cooperation with the old lady, you have to show sincerity!"

Mr. Zhang looked at King Qian.

The master and servant have a tacit understanding.

I saw that King Qian hesitated for a moment, and asked directly, "Tell me what you want?" Or what do you want from this king? ”

Xia Jing's eyes were contemptuous, and she spoke: "You should know that there is no free lunch in the world, and you can't let me give you technology or shares for nothing." If you pay, you will be rewarded, and I don't ask you to pay anything, in a word, I want to be free! ”

King Qian looked at her with puzzled eyes, "Freedom? ”

"To freedom!" Xia Jing pondered in her heart, "Absolute freedom of words and deeds, you can also see how backward and poor Lingnan is, I may often go out to run errands in the future, and I will also carry out many industries in Lingnan, I hope that the prince will not interfere then!" ”

King Qian frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable, "What if, you break the law and discipline?" ”

Xia Jing glared and emphasized: "The old lady is a good person who abides by the law, don't slander me!" My conditions are here, it's up to you whether you agree or not, and if you want to own the salt pans, you have to agree to my conditions. ”

After that, she fanned the wind, the summer in Lingnan is really hot!

It doesn't snow in the winter, and it's so hot in the summer that you can't even cool down with ice.

King Qian received the expectant eyes of the two gentlemen, and he only felt aggrieved in his heart.

He took the wet handkerchief from Anu's hand and wiped it on his face and neck, and then reluctantly promised: "Okay, this king will give you freedom, and in the future, you will be free to travel and do things freely, okay?" ”

Xia Jing stood up with satisfaction and sharpened the ink for him with her own hands, "There is no evidence for empty words, let's establish words as evidence!" ”

King Qian raised his head in shock and said in shame: "This king is full of words, you actually doubt this king's character?" ”

"With the emperor here, where did you get your word?" Xia Jing handed him the wolf, "Come, write down the promise you just made and put your private seal on it." ”

King Qian hesitated, can he regret it?

Xia Jing seemed to see through the thoughts in his heart, and added another fire, "As long as you write this letter of commitment, you can own the Yantian that is making money every day, and this transaction will only make money and not lose money." ”

King Qian glared at her and snatched the wolf's hair, "In your eyes, husbands and wives can also make deals, you have no conscience, and Bai has been good to you all these years." ”

Xia Jing smiled silently, a man's mouth, a deceitful ghost, believing a man's words, and finally killing herself.

It's better to have a father and a mother than to have oneself.

Something can only be confident if you hold it in your own hands.

She is not a deep resentful woman who has experienced the poison of the book in this era, and she does not waste so many feelings on sentimentality.

King Qian noticed that there was no trace of flinching in her eyes, and he was angry for a while, dipped in ink, brushed and brushed, and a letter of commitment was completed in one go!

Throw the wolf and stamp it with a private seal at the end!

Xia Jing glanced down and saw a little ink splashed on her sleeve, and picked up the letter of commitment and blew it absently.

After the handwriting was dry, he folded it and smiled: "Hongmei, hand over the salt drying method I prepared to the prince, and we will get the silver and goods." ”

King Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and took the paper, "You don't give this king dividends?" ”

Xia Jing raised her chin, "Isn't this sending you money?" You can have your own salt pan this way, so why do you have to follow me to join in? ”

"If you have the idea of only taking money and not doing things, I think you don't daydream and want to make money and make your own trouble!"

Xia Jing's expression was as if she was afraid that he would take advantage, so angry that King Qian really wanted to snatch the letter of commitment and tear it up, lest it be as she wanted, but he was so angry that his liver hurt!

He gritted his teeth and warned, "Xia, don't get carried away! ”
