Chapter 1027: City-wide Action
Gu Hui didn't know what Peng Ze was thinking about at all, what she should do every day, very calmly.
Occasionally, Jing and the county lord joked about her, and she just smiled and didn't say much.
Soon, it was the tenth day of the first month.
The neighboring five countries all know that the newly arrived county commander of Kuncheng in Dazhou intends to hold a Lantern Festival.
This year's trade zone also chose to open on that day, and the trade zone will not only open again every once in a while, but open at any time, you can enter the city to do business, but you need to pay a certain deposit when entering the city, if you make trouble in the city, then the deposit will not be refunded, and you will never want to set foot in Kuncheng.
A lot of businessmen are ready to move.
They also hold Lantern Festival in their own country, but they always have a little less flavor, and they are not as lively as those in the Great Zhou!
Therefore, there are many merchants from the neighboring five countries who plan to come to Kuncheng for the Lantern Festival, and those people from the royal family want to come, but they dare not come, for fear of being caught by the Peng family, so they can only send people around them to take a look and go back to tell about the excitement of the Lantern Festival.
The people of these countries, except for the Goddess Country, have always existed independently, and the other four countries were all established by officials or generals of the previous dynasty who retreated to the corner to support troops and stand on their own.
It's a pity that except for the Xingnan Kingdom, which is the closest to the capital, none of these countries can enter the territory of the Great Zhou from other passes, and only enter Kuncheng to trade with the merchants of the Great Zhou.
The royal family of the Great Zhou has always been very harsh on their countries, if you want to enter the Great Zhou, okay, the annual tribute can ask for more than half of your treasury, who will come?
Their ancestors also knew about the Lantern Festival, but they couldn't make it feel like it was recorded in the books, and they wanted to experience it for themselves!
……
Gu Shouxin asked the officials to stop the people from putting lanterns.
The people had no materials, but the yamen provided them, and during the Lantern Festival, the people sold the silver from the lanterns, and the yamen took back half of the money.
It's almost a city-wide operation.
Families of all sizes are rooted.
Gu Shouxin divided the officials into groups, half of them patrolled normally, and half of them went to the trading area and the area of Peng's Mansion to arrange lanterns.
The yamen set an example and put some large lanterns in a conspicuous position.
Gu Nian didn't join in the excitement, in addition to training every day, she was still engaged in her research, and Gu Xin would call Gu Si and Cheng Huaiyu every day to see the arrangement of the lanterns.
Sun Yumei and others are rushing to make the embroidery that needs to be sold at that time, this time it is not only handkerchiefs and purses, but also fans and small screens.
Cai Xiaolian told Sun Yumei that on the day of the Lantern Festival, she went to watch it in person, and if the other party wanted long-term cooperation, how to negotiate the price.
It can be regarded as teaching Sun Yumei to do things hand-in-hand.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Hua Shiniang couldn't help it and came to the yamen to ask for advice in person.
She missed the song that Gu Xin and Gu Si talked about that day so much.
As a result, she didn't see Gu Xin and Gu Si when she came over, and it was Cai Xiaolian who received her personally.
Cai Xiaolian called Sun Yumei out, and this matter always has to be resolved.
Hua Shiniang is a woman in her twenties, dressed as a woman, she has been in Kuncheng for so many years, this is the first time she has come to the county office, and she has come to see the county lady who is not the same world as her.
The apprehension when I came gradually disappeared after seeing Cai Xiaolian and talking for a while.
Because, Cai Xiaolian told her about the other development of the Worry Relief Building.
None of the women in the Qinglou wanted to do such a business, they were all forced, and at first glance, Hua Shiniang was a little speechless with excitement.
After she calmed down, she asked, "Why would Mrs. Gu help a woman like us?" ”
