Chapter 433: Qiu Fu's desire to perform
Looking at Qiu Fu with a look of novelty in everything, Chen Kan's face was impassive, but he thought in his heart that he should raise the price of the things produced by his family after he went back.
It doesn't matter if it's cheap, but luxury goods such as perfume glass are all profits.
There is never too much money for Chen Kan.
Raise the dead, raise the guards, raise the killers, raise the spies, and don't need money.
Including that he can get Zhu Di's favor now, to put it bluntly, isn't it because he can make money for him and bring him real benefits.
Zhu Di's son-in-law is not only him, in terms of his identity, Chang Ning he married is still Zhu Di's concubine, if he has no effect, how can Zhu Di trust him so much?
Yuan Rong Li Rang still married his daughter-in-law, and he did not have the slightest mercy when he took away the title.
Qi Guogong said good things, who dares to say bad things?
Chen Kan is still brainstorming.
Qiu Fu had already picked up a glass pixiu from the shelf and looked at it.
Pixiu is pure and flawless, without a little impurity, Chen Kan can see that Qiu Fu really likes this fist-sized little Pixiu.
It's even to the point where I can't put it down.
"Ingenious, ingenious, I never thought that there was such a pure glass in Beijing."
Qiu Fu reluctantly put Pixiu back on the shelf, this kind of thing is a luxury since ancient times.
Although Daming has mastered the technology of burning paper glass, it is extremely rare to find glass ornaments of this quality.
Of course, the price of 3,000 guan is enough to discourage most people.
This also includes Qiu Fu.
The Qiguo Mansion has a big business, of course, it is not so much that it can't afford to buy a piece of glass.
It's just that Qiu Fu's position is too high, and weighing the pros and cons has become his instinct, and it is extremely uncost-effective for him to spend three thousand yuan to buy a useless ornament that can only be put on display.
Chen Kan saw him put the glass back in place, so he glanced at the guards on the side.
The guard was also a clever one, and after bowing slightly, he put away the Pixiu gift box.
Seeing this, Qiu Fu glanced at Chen Kan with a smile, but didn't say anything.
A group of people walked out of the supermarket and visited a few more shops before heading towards the end of Xizhimen.
Of course, the shops that Qiu Fu visited, as long as he revealed the goods he was interested in, were all packed into gift boxes.
These are the things that Qiu Fu can see.
And what he couldn't see, what he couldn't see, of course, was that after he left the shop, a small sign was set up next to all the things he was interested in, and of course, the price also rose a lot.
Xizhimen Street is located in the northwest corner of Beijing, and at the end of it is the city wall of the Forbidden City.
The Forbidden City in Beijing is almost a copy of the Forbidden City in Nanjing.
Including three major halls, including the harem, including Chengtian Gate, Hongwu Gate and many other gates that enter and exit the palace.
Chen Kan led Qiu Fu to turn a corner at the end of Xizhimen Street and came to Hongwumen Square.
"Grandpa, do you want to enter the palace to have a look?"
The current Forbidden City has not yet been completely completed, and there are still many craftsmen in the Imperial City who are still busy.
After all, it is an imperial city, no more than a private house, and everything can be fooled with cement.
In the common advance, every brick and tile has a law.
What color of floor tiles are used in the imperial road, what kind of carving skills are used in what palaces, and what kind of lacquer are painted, these things must be in accordance with the etiquette system.
Not to mention anything else, it took a whole year to find the seventy-two pillars that supported the Fengtian Temple.
Because the royal pillars not only need to be made of precious wood, but also have requirements for the growth period, height, and number of annual ring teeth.
Five years is naturally not enough to complete the construction.
Of course, if you want to live in people, you can live if you barely clean up, at least if Zhu Di wants to go north, he doesn't have to go to the palace in Cuiwei Mountain.
Hearing Chen Kan's proposal, Qiu Fu glanced at Chen Kan with a smile, and then nodded: "Since you're here, it's good to go in and have a look!" ”
Hongwu Gate is naturally closed to the public now, so if Qiu Fu wants to enter, he can only take the small door where craftsmen enter and exit.
Qiu Fu didn't mind, Chen Kan took him through the low door, and after passing through the long corridor, the Fengtian Hall of the Forbidden City of Nanjing, which was reproduced one by one, came into view.
The imperial palace in Beijing is basically the same as that in Nanjing.
It's just that compared with Nanjing's, there is an extra palace behind the imperial city.
From the imperial city to the palace city, in addition to the passage of the hidden soldiers, there is also an urn city as the last line of defense of the palace.
Others, such as the six yamen, the five military governors' mansions, and the Jinyi Wei yamen are all exactly the same.
Qiu Fu inspected it very carefully, and when he passed by the Jixian Palace, he specially asked the craftsman to knock on the pillars of the Jixian Hall and check it.
The reason why Qiu Fu wanted to inspect the pillar was because during the Hongwu period, when Hong Wuye held a ceremony in the Jixian Palace, there was a scandal that the expensive golden silk nanmu pillar was replaced with a hollow pillar.
This Jixian Palace, if nothing else, will also be held in the future.
Of course, such a scandal as stealing beams and changing pillars should be avoided.
After inspecting the imperial city for a whole day, Chen Kan, a young man with good physical fitness, felt that his legs were as heavy as if they had been filled with lead, and Qiu Fu was still checking every detail for any kind of possible problems.
Finally, it's getting dark!
To be honest, after a day of walking, Chen Kan was already hungry.
At noon, his request to Qiu Fu to find a restaurant to eat first was also refused, and he really couldn't walk at this time.
Seeing that Qiu Fu still had plans to continue to inspect Miyagi, Chen Kan hurriedly stopped him: "Grandpa, let's come to Japan for a long time, and it's not bad to inspect Miyagi for a while, you came all the way from Nanjing, so let's go to meet Lord Zhang Guanzhang as the host first." ”
Qiu Fu paused, and his face suddenly showed a sudden look: "Yes, yes, thank you for reminding the old man, otherwise the old man would have forgotten about this stubble." ”
After speaking, he couldn't help patting his head and said with emotion: "Oh, this person is old, he can't remember things, just remember what His Majesty explained, but forget that there are colleagues waiting, rude, really rude." ”
"It doesn't matter, Master Zhang is a humble gentleman, and he must understand the heart of the grandfather who is loyal to the king."
Chen Kan has already come as soon as he opens his mouth, Qiu Fu wants to act, and Chen Kan will accompany him to act.
He didn't believe that Qiu Fu had forgotten that Zhang Guan was still waiting for him, Qiu Fu had a bad memory, so there would be no one with a good memory in the Ming Dynasty.
Chen Kan estimated that there was probably something discordant between Zhang Guan and Qiu Fu.
For example, today, Chen Kan waited at the Temple of Heaven for a long time today and couldn't wait for Zhang Guan's car, and for example, Qiu Fu would rather surrender his identity and come to Beijing by himself than wait for him and Zhang Guan to pick him up on the boat.
Chen Kan felt that there might be more than discord between them, and there was not a small contradiction.
However, one of the two is in Nanjing and the other is in Beijing, and they belong to a relationship that can't be fought by eight poles on weekdays.
Then this disgrace is likely to have ended when Zhu Di was still King Yan.
In other words, Qiu Fu and Zhang Guan won't have a tearing war later, right?
Think about it, and look forward to it!
Chen Kan likes to watch the drama of enemies seeing each other, and they are all big shots, which is rare to see in a hundred years.
"Let's go, don't make Master Zhang wait for a long time."
Qiu Fu seemed to really realize his faux pas, and hurriedly urged Chen Kan.
When Chen Kan heard this, he cooperated and sped up his steps.
The Beijing city of the Ming Dynasty is composed of two county seats, Daxing County governs the east city of Beijing, and Wanping County governs the west city of Beijing, and the middle is bounded by the central street in front of Hongwu Gate.
The Shuntian Mansion includes the four prefectures under its jurisdiction and is located in the northeast corner of Beijing, and the government also includes the county government.
Its architectural scale is naturally second only to the Imperial Palace in Beijing.
Chen Kan sent guards to inform Zhang Guan in advance, so when he took Qiu Fu to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion, Zhang Guan had already taken all the subordinate officials of Shuntian Mansion to stand at the door of the Yamen to greet him.
The atmosphere is no less important than when Chen Kan first arrived in Beijing.
It's just that compared to when Chen Kanlai came, the expressions on most officials' faces when facing Qiu Fu were not enthusiastic, and they just maintained a polite smirk in the officialdom.
Chen Kan also understood their thoughts.
When he comes, he comes to avoid evil.
And as early as when he arrived in Beijing, he made it clear that he only needed 3,000 battalions of military power, and he would not interfere in the government affairs of Beijing.
He will not pose a threat to the officials on the ground in Beijing, nor will he embezzle their interests, and they will certainly be happy to befriend Chen Kan.
But Qiu Fu is different, no matter which local official is, he will not have a good impression of the Beijing official who visits rashly.
Although Qiu Fu is here to take over the Army Academy this time.
But his identity as a general is there, nominally overpowering the civil and military forces on the ground in Beijing.
And as soon as he came, he played the set of micro-service private interviews, and simply didn't take them as local officials seriously.
After waiting for a whole day in vain, a normal person will be angry in his heart.
"This official Zhang Guan, together with all the colleagues of the Shuntian Mansion, has seen Qi Guogong, has never greeted him from afar, and asked Qi Guogong to forgive his sins."
Zhang Guan led a group of people to give Qiu Fu a salute, and Qiu Fu hurriedly showed a flattered expression and helped Zhang Guan up.
"Oh, Lord Zhang, although you and I haven't seen each other for many years, how can I say that I am also an old acquaintance under the command of Yanwangfu in the past, how can I be so polite with the old man, please get up quickly, and list it as a colleague, let you wait for a long time, it is the fault of the old man, please get up quickly, please get up quickly!"
It is very strange that Qiu Fu is a military general, but he speaks in a set way, and he is more civil than a civilian official.
Zhang Guan got up and saluted Chen Kan on the side: "I've seen Master Hou!" ”
"Lord Zhang is polite!"
Chen Kan stretched out his hand to help, and then consciously stepped aside, leaving the battlefield to Qiu Fu and Zhang Guan, two old acquaintances.
Zhang Guan looked at Qiu Fu and said lightly: "Grandpa is from afar, and the official has prepared a little thin wine for Grandpa to catch the wind and wash the dust, Grandpa, please!" ”
Qiu Fu replied: "Lord Zhang, please first!" ”
Zhang Guan greeted Chen Kan again: "Master Hou, please!" ”
Seeing that the two of them were pushing and shoving and shoving officialdom etiquette, and they didn't look like they were going to tear up, Chen Kan couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
He replied lightly: "Grandpa, Lord Zhang, please first." ”
