So, under the active Zhang Luo of the birthday celebration and Uncle Guo, Mo Hongsu and Wen Xiangrong sat face-to-face at a table.

Mo Hongsu didn't do anything, that is, there was Emperor Li Xun of Dayan sitting in front of him, and Mo Hongsilk wouldn't do anything, but the flesh on Jiang Mengguo's right minister Wen Xiangrong's face jumped and jumped, it was hard to believe that General Mo of Dayan Country would be a woman?

For a moment, he wondered if he had been deceived by Uncle Guo, this so-called General Mo was actually found by Uncle Guo for Zhuangzi to manage the affairs of Zhuangzi somewhere, the purpose was to trick him into taking out the silver.

But soon, he denied this idea, not to mention that no matter how muddy the uncle is, he will never deceive people with national affairs, even the momentum of the woman in front of him is not something that ordinary people can pretend.

Although Wen Xiangrong has never been on the battlefield, he has come into contact with a lot of generals, and the momentum exuded by Mo Hongsilk is unique to generals who have really been on the battlefield and killed the enemy, and even said that there are very few generals in Jiangmeng who can have her kind of momentum, this is self-confidence in his own strength, and only people with really strong strength can have this kind of self-confidence.

Wen Xiangrong quickly determined that Mo Hongsu was really the general of Dayan Kingdom, a woman could achieve the position of general, not to mention her outstanding ability, her family background must not be simple, otherwise ordinary women would not even have the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

So, under Wen Xiangrong's deliberate inquiry and friendship, he also had a good conversation with General Mo, who has always been indifferent to people.

At the same time, the atmosphere of the conversation between Uncle Guo, who sat down to drink again, and the birthday celebration became much more lively.

Thinking of Old Man Wen's distrustful eyes towards him before, and knowing the fact that he had successfully approached a general of the Great Yan Kingdom, the change in his eyes already made him very happy, and who would dare to say that he relied on his sister to make a fortune this time.

As for how to talk to General Mo, that is the matter of Old Man Wen, if everything has to worry about him, the uncle of the country, what else do you want them to do?

Five catties of wine cost Uncle Guo a thousand taels of silver, but when he thought of his meritorious service after returning to China, his brother-in-law was happy to reward him with more than this amount, and he was so beautiful in his heart. Wouldn't it be happier if I could offer this wine to my brother-in-law?

It's a pity that no matter how much you hint to Qingsheng, Qingsheng didn't say anything, and if this wine is the same as boiled water, it will be worthless, but thinking of what Qingsheng said before, the wine is from Ningyuan Palace, presumably there will be a lot of Ningyuan Palace, if you buy wine from Ningyuan Palace, even if you can't drink enough, you can always buy more than him.

Here, Uncle Guo was thinking about how to buy wine from Ningyuan Wangfu, and at the same time he was close to the birthday celebration, Wen Xiangrong also told him just now, so that he could have a good relationship with the steward, maybe he could really get unexpected benefits from him.

"Brother, you make a lot of money a year, right?"

Qingsheng scratched his head and smiled very honestly, "Not much, not much, this is not to save more money to marry a wife." ”

Uncle Guo couldn't help but exclaim, "Huh? Brother, you haven't married a wife at this age? ”

He is now thirty-four years old, let alone a wife, the children are all in their teens, and they will have grandchildren in two years, but the person in front of him, who looks not much younger than him, has not yet married a wife, runs such a big Zhuangzi, and has not saved enough money to marry a wife, how much silver does this Dayan country get to marry a wife?

Qingsheng listened to it and said: "It's not that I want to start a business first and then start a family, and save a few more years of money......"

Uncle Guo patted Qingsheng's shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother, but you have delayed your grandson like this." ”

Qingsheng's face turned red, "Uncle Guo, I'm only twenty-three years old, so I'm not in a hurry." ”

Uncle Guo's hand stiffened, and he didn't expect that this steward, who seemed to be not much different from himself, was only twenty-three? Although it was a little late to marry at the age of twenty-three, I couldn't get my grandson up.

I want to say that Qingchang is old, but I am really afraid of hitting people, so I simply held a wine glass and said with some embarrassment: "Drink and drink." ”

Qingsheng didn't suffer much damage, it's a good thing that he is mature, he is two years younger than General Mo, if he grows tender again, he wants to marry General Mo as his wife, I'm afraid there will be hardships.

Eating and drinking here, the atmosphere of Wen Xiangrong's conversation with Mo Hongsu was a little weird, Wen Xiangrong encouraged him to have a three-inch tongue, and praised General Mo all the time, saying that she was a woman who did not let her eyebrows be shaved, and said how heroic she was to defend her family and country as a woman, but to put it simply, General Mo just stared at his mouth, and occasionally flashed a surprised expression, as if to say: This old man can really speak in the vernacular.

Wen Xiangrong's mouth was dry, and finally pushed a box prepared before in front of Mo Hongsu, he didn't expect to be able to say that Mo Hongsu betrayed Dayan at one time, as long as Mo Hongsilk was convenient for them at a convenient time, it would not be in vain that he was embarrassed to be stared at by Mo Hongsu like a monkey.

Mo Hongsilk opened the box, and there were twelve round beads lying inside, each of which was almost the size of a pigeon's egg, and Mo Hongsilk was not uninformed, and at a glance, he knew that this box of beads was worth a lot.

If it was according to Mo Hongsian's temperament, she would never ask for beads, but before she came to celebrate her birthday, she expected that Jiang Mengguo's purpose was to see General Mo, and she was persuaded to do so, anyway, Jiang Mengguo people are stupid and have a lot of money, so don't want things in vain. General Mo took their things, in fact, it was similar to opening a Zhuangzi to earn their silver on his birthday, and there was no reason not to send the things in front of him.

So, General Mo was moved, but after hesitating for a moment, he closed the box, held it in his arms, and continued to stare at Wen Xiangrong's mouth.

Wen Xiangrong was even more embarrassed, and from the moment he sat down, General Mo said three words, 'Do you want to see General Ben?' ''You are the right minister of Jiang Mengguo?'' ''What are you seeing General Ben's for?'' ’

After that, no matter what he said, General Mo stared at him with that calm and somewhat indifferent gaze...... The mouth looks.

Now that everything has been accepted, it can be regarded as General Mo's expression, but she has been staring at him with this look, even if he is about the same age as General Mo's father, but there is a difference between men and women, he will be shy.

So, in embarrassment, Wen Xiangrong unilaterally exchanged a few words with General Mo before leaving the house.

It wasn't until he left that Mo Hongsilk opened the box containing the beads again, such a big bead is round and moist, it can be seen that it is a good thing, Xiao Rouer said that the better the beads, the better the pearl powder, I wonder if the powder from these beads will be better?

Well, take it back and ask Xiao Rou'er, if she says yes, it will be half of the powder for one person.

As for how much silver is this bead worth? General Mo said that she is not short of money now, not to mention that the silver earned from the birthday celebration has been given to her, even Xiao Rouer and He Louyuan will not treat her badly, except for the business of cowhide products discussed with Ling Xiaorou before, which has been done by her younger brother, after not a lot of investment, the income has been considerable, and now Mo Mansion is no longer as difficult to make ends meet as before.

Especially after the younger brother married his daughter-in-law, the second sister and the third sister of the concubine also got married, the days in the house can be said to be thriving, a new change every day, everything is in order, and no one will worry about the silver two anymore.

Even her annual income is not something that ordinary people can imagine, and she now has a few shops and a few Zhuangzi in Weicheng Mansion, just these few beads, it really doesn't scare her.

Is General Mo really a stupid woman with no knowledge? A few beads want to buy General Mo, hum! The envoys of Jiang Mengguo were destined to achieve nothing.

However, this is also a wake-up call to General Mo, the people of Jiangmengguo actually came for the purpose of bribing the officials of Dayan State, no matter what their ultimate purpose is, she also has to discuss with He Louyuan, like those officials who are not firm in their position, or have problems with their accounts, it is better not to make up in front of the envoys of Jiangmengguo.

And like their own people who have a firm position, there is one more way to make money.

Ling Xiaorou glanced at the beads in the box, for General Mo said that the idea of grinding into powder, Ling Xiaorou felt that it was really a waste, although she was already very rich, such beads had a box in her dowry, but good things were not so wasted, and General Mo was about to get married, so it was good to keep the bottom of the box, as for pearl powder, she really didn't need such good beads, in her opinion, as long as it was pure pearls, this kind of pearl grinding powder was a complete waste.

After persuasion, General Mo decided to add this box of pearls to his dowry, and only waited for the holy decree from the capital to send away these Jiangmeng envoys, and she would be a bride.

As for the fact that the envoy Jiang Meng still wanted to know some officials of Weicheng Mansion through General Mo, He Louyuan, who had been sitting next to him without speaking, finally spoke, "This matter can be done." ”

Just looking at the box in front of General Mo, with a thoughtful expression, no matter how you look at it, it seems that he feels that the fertilizer water can't flow into the fields of outsiders.

Therefore, the officials who can go to do this are naturally the cronies of King Ningyuan, of course, this number cannot be too much, and the people of Jiangmeng are not stupid, the number is really large, and Wen Youxiang will also be suspicious.

Finally, in Wen Xiangrong's anticipation, the holy decree sent from the capital arrived.

In mid-July, the envoys of Jiangmengguo, who had spent more than 100,000 taels of silver in Zhuangzi for more than half a month to celebrate his birthday, were finally invited out of Zhuangzi and lived in the embassy built by Weicheng Fuzhi to entertain envoys.

Of course, these hundreds of thousands of taels are just the cost of the Zhuangzi on the surface, like those gifts sent out cannot be calculated, fortunately, Wen Xiangrong felt that his things were done well, and he also inquired about these officials who were introduced by General Mo and came to meet him in Zhuangzi, combined with the secret report about Weicheng Mansion that was sent back to China before, these officials are indeed able to speak in Weicheng Mansion, and if they want to come to Weicheng Mansion again, these people can help if they encounter anything.

So, Wen Xiangrong was satisfied, and he didn't plan to make much effort from these people anyway, just in case.
