0241 Inn

When he entered the post station, Ning Yushi revealed his identity and asked Yi Cheng to quickly arrange a room, hot water and meals for him. He was going to wash up and eat as soon as possible, and then hurry up to rest.

The people who can be Yicheng are all very discerning people, especially when they saw Ning Yushi's identity as a messenger, Yicheng didn't dare to be careless. He quickly arranged everything for Ning Yushi and the others to wash. So by the time he finished washing up and appeared in the main hall to prepare for dinner, he had already regained the dignity of an official.

The first step downstairs Yu Shi is a young man who has just joined the Metropolitan Inspectorate, and he takes Ning Yushi as an example in everything, so Ning Yushi is also willing to support him, and even take him with him when he goes out this time, so that he can get in touch with practice as soon as possible.

When he saw Ning Yushi walking out of the door, he stepped forward and said, "Lord Ning, the meal has been arranged, just eat a little and rest early!" It's not far from Jingshi, and we'll be there tomorrow before the gates are locked. ”

Ning Yushi nodded when he heard this, and then sat down at the table under the leadership of the young Yushi. At this time, there were already four dishes on the table, and the combination of meat and vegetables looked very good. The two humbled each other and began to enjoy the man's meal of the day.

Not long after the two of them sat down to eat and chat, two people who looked like wealthy merchants walked into the post station with their servants. Among them, the taller one directly threw Yi Cheng a piece of silver and said, "I'm tired of arranging a table of wine banquet, and I'll see off my friends!" In addition, the servants and chariots and horses outside the door should also be taken care of, and the necessary money should be deducted from here. ”

Ning Yushi and the two looked up, and the two lowered their heads and continued to chat while eating. Because there are just too many businessmen like that. Originally, no one other than officials was allowed to stay in the inn, but after the officials interfered in business affairs, things changed!

Now those merchants are grandly staying in the post station under the banner of officials, and the merchants who can pay the silver normally like this are still good, and they are even more bullying, they will use all the resources in the post station in vain, and they will shout at the post and others, as if they are officials.

The two businessmen sat down at the empty table on Ning Yushi's right and began to chat. Since there were a lot of people dining in the post station at this time, the voices of the two people were inevitably a little louder, and even Ning Yushi could clearly hear the two people talking.

At first, the two of them were still talking about some business things, but when the food and drinks were delivered, the topic of the two slowly changed direction. I only heard the taller merchant say: "Speaking of which, this time the virtuous brother will return to his hometown and pass through the area of Miyang, I heard that the smallpox there has subsided, otherwise the virtuous brother will have to go around in a big circle!" ”

Another businessman said: "This is thanks to the quick response of the imperial court, and the Qin messenger who went down used his life!" Otherwise, I don't know how many people will die! ”

Ning Yushi and the two of them smiled lovesick when they heard this, quite proud! But then the words made their faces change color! I only heard the tall merchant say: "Yes, the foolish brother also heard that the deputy envoy of the Qin mission has made great contributions this time, and Your Majesty will reward him again in the next few days!" ”

Another businessman said: "I have also heard about this matter, but I don't know what he has done. ”

The tall merchant smiled and said, "This kind of thing can't be said!" I guess there are some tricks in it! ”

Another merchant said strangely, "Why do you say that?" ”

The tall businessman said: "Brother Xian, although you and I are not officials, but there are many officials in contact, how have you ever heard that the deputy envoy can have more credit than the main envoy?" I think there must be a reason for this! ”

Young Yushi's eyebrows had already raised when he heard this, but Ning Yushi patted his hand and motioned for him to continue listening. At this time, I heard the short merchant say: "If you say so, that deputy envoy must have a very good background?" ”

A businessman smiled and said, "Exactly! That envoy is said to be from a noble family, and he has won the blue eyes of His Majesty! And the most important thing is that this person is rich, and very rich! ”

The merchant on the other side asked: "There are many rich people in Xungui's family, but there are not many who let my brother say that he is rich twice!" Who are you talking about? ”

The tall businessman didn't pretend to be mysterious, and said directly: "It's Liu Haojia, the second young master of Gu Ningbo's Mansion!" ”

The merchant on the opposite side slapped the table lightly and said, "I've heard of him!" It is said that he made the mirror that has become popular all over the world recently! I wanted to buy a batch of goods and send them to my hometown to sell, but I couldn't get them at all! And the price of the mirror is extremely high, and it definitely contains huge profits! ”

The tall merchant said, "That's nature! Do you think, mirrors are similar to glass, and glass is similar to porcelain, they are all things burned out of soil, how high can it cost? I'm afraid there will be millions of profits in a year! It's just that we can't figure it out for a while, and if we figure it out, we won't be far from the rich world! ”

The merchant on the opposite side obviously didn't have a good impression of Sui Xungui, he snorted and said: "It's a pity that this kind of thing falls into the hands of Xungui, and it is useless for the country and the people!" If the imperial court had mastered the method of making mirrors, and the huge profits would have been properly used by people of insight in the court, I don't know how much could be done for the imperial court! ”

Ning Yushi was almost stunned when he heard the last words of the merchant, he couldn't hear any other voices at all, and all that was left in his mind was how to turn these things into a feasible plan! In his opinion, Xungui holding silver is nothing more than pleasure, and only in the hands of these moral people can it be a good thing that can benefit the country and the people!

If it is really as the merchant said, then wouldn't the Liu family have a million taels of silver in the account every year? This Liu family is really rich! If this money is used for the dynasty, I don't know how many scholars can be cultivated?

Thinking of this, Ning Yushi's chest was already agitated, and he couldn't help himself, and his face became flushed! Even the young Goshi didn't even hear him talk!

He didn't react until the young Yushi asked him twice, and then smiled apologetically and said, "I'm tired from the journey, and I'm a little distracted!" ”

The young Yushi smiled and said, "In that case, adults should rest after eating early." ”

Ning Yushi nodded very reluctantly, and after a few bites of food, he said goodbye to his subordinates and returned to the room, he wanted to take advantage of the time before returning to Beijing to complete the whole plan.

In the evening of the next day, the tired Ning Yushi walked into the Jingshi, and after handing over the recital to the palace, he sent someone to invite all the imperial histories who were familiar with him in the inspectorate to his home. The meeting didn't end until the early hours of the morning, and everyone involved left excited.
