Chapter 58: Rules?
Mrs. Mu asked, "Liang Xiao, what do you think of the little girl?" ”
"Mother?" Mu Qinxue was taken aback.
Liang Xiao said without hesitation: "She is worthy of being the first strange woman." ”
Mu Qinxue secretly glanced at Liang Xiao, full of joy.
Mrs. Mu looked at Liang Xiao and sighed in her heart.
This kid is a talent, and he has the enthusiasm to serve the country, but he is also worthy of his daughter, but he is ......
Thinking that her daughter was born with brute strength and strong martial arts, just like her mother-in-law, this child would inevitably become her father-in-law and wife in the future, Mrs. Mu was really a little unbearable, and sighed: "Let's talk about the sugar business, right?" ”
Liang Xiao readily agreed.
This time, on the basis of Liang Xiao and Mu Qinxue's previous discussions, Mrs. Mu raised the deposit of sugar to 10,000 taels, which surprised Liang Xiao as well.
Liang Xiao reminded: "Madam, I don't have so much sugar in my hand now, and besides, I can only supply half of it to you at most each time." ”
Mrs. Mu said: "It's okay, we signed an agreement, if you can't supply it, you don't have to compensate anything, just return the deposit." ”
Liang Xiao was stunned.
The lady's attitude towards him had changed a hundred and eighty degrees, which really surprised him.
Mu Qinxue seemed to see Liang Xiao's doubts, and said: "Liang Gongzi, in fact, my grandfather and grandmother, when the capital was moved, my grandparents were still in the north and could not be spared, so my mother has always hated Beihu." The reason why Beihu grew stronger was inseparable from the materials provided to them by some mercenary Great Zhou merchants. ”
Liang Xiao suddenly said solemnly: "Madame, don't worry, my father was still shown to the public by Beihu, how can I, Liang Xiao, do business with Beihu." On the contrary, every copper that I Liang Xiao earns today may become a sharp arrow to Beihu in the future! ”
Mrs. Mu no longer doubted.
Mu Lingxiao said excitedly: "Liang Xiao, do you know martial arts or the art of war?" ”
"I understand a little." Liang Xiao nodded.
Mu Lingxiao smiled: "I'm looking forward to fighting with you in the future!" ”
After Liang Xiao chatted with the three of them again, Mrs. Mu left with her children.
Back home, Mu Qinxue complained: "Big brother, he is now the only seedling of the Liang family, how can you fool him into going to the battlefield!" ”
"Oh yes, he and you haven't had a boy and a girl yet." Mu Lingxiao pouted.
Mu Qinxue snorted: "It's good that you know~"
Mrs. Mu looked at her daughter and sighed: "Giving him a deposit of 10,000 taels is the last thing my mother can do for you, I hope he will not live up to your expectations." He holds 10,000 taels, and his face does not change, which shows that his heart is outstanding. In the future, you have to work hard for yourself. ”
"My mother is the best for me!" Mu Qinxue happily hugged her mother.
The only thing in the way now is his bastard daddy!
Liang Xiao sat in the room, looked at the 10,000 taels of silver tickets in his hand, and thoughtfully said: "It's time to develop this thing." ”
After reading the roster today, he also realized the severity of the situation in Da Zhou.
The relationship between the government and opposition officials is intricately intertwined, and less than half of them can really serve the country and the people.
But now there are only two sisters left in the royal family, and the empress can't get rid of her dependence on these families for the time being.
Fortunately, the military power is firmly in the hands of the empress, which is the rule since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Moreover, there is also a dedicated prime minister like Zhuge Hui who assists the empress in stabilizing the government.
The Great Zhou Dynasty is a relatively special dynasty, but it is still a feudal dynasty after all.
Now he needs a lot of money, and with enough money, he can do things.
He has always wanted to train an elite for self-preservation, of course, it would be best if he could get the support of the empress, so it would be logical.
The empress supports, this army is the elite regular army, and if it is not supported, this army is her own private army.
Nearest the king nearest the gallows.
Stay in the green mountains and don't be afraid of no firewood.
Liang Xiao knows too well the truth of rabbit death and dog cooking, and only wants to ensure the safety of himself and his relatives first, and cannot unconditionally trust and rely on others, including the empress and the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion.
There was no pilgrimage the next day.
In the early morning, Duan Yunyi took advantage of the crisp autumn weather and disguised himself as a boy in yellow to inspect the suffering of the world.
Walking and walking, Duan Yunyi went up to the second floor of the inn he secretly discarded.
It's right next to the market, and she can keep an eye on the people at any time.
Liang Xiao's people came to sell sugar again.
White sugar can be sold in two, one or two or forty, and as soon as it is put on the stall, it is sold out.
Duan Yunyi looked pleased: "The taste of white sugar is only slightly worse than honey, but it is far better than caramel and stone honey, I heard what he meant, this thing can become a military material in the future." I heard from the royal sister that the reason why his white sugar is restricted is that he doesn't want people to hoard it in large quantities, because white sugar is more practical than ordinary grain and grass. ”
The two Xuanwei commanders behind him also tasted white sugar and pastries refined with white sugar, and were full of praise.
Duan Yunyi silently watched the direction of the bazaar, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Let's go back and wait first, I have the heart to let Lin Duan test him."
In the afternoon, Duan Yunsleeve visited Liang Xiao as promised, with an eager face, and asked, "Are you instant noodles today?" ”
Liang Xiao replied: "My emperor summoned him, how can it be inconvenient? ”
Duan Yunsleeve suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and reminded: "I understand your ease and ease, but the palace is an important place, you must pay attention to the etiquette to some extent, you must not make mistakes, and you must leave the best impression on Your Majesty." ”
Liang Xiao agreed and got into Duan Yunsleeve's carriage.
Entering the palace, Duan Yunsleeve led Liang Xiao all the way to a palace and advised: "I'll go and report to Your Majesty, there will be other fathers-in-law to take you to face the saint later, you have to understand the rules." ”
After leaving the palace, Duan Yunsleeve covered his mouth and smiled: "This palace is going to bathe and change clothes, and I will give you a big surprise today, hum!" ”
Liang Xiao waited for a moment, and waited for the real celebrant to come to Lin Duan.
Lin Duan drank immediately: "This is the new hall for receiving VIPs, you come to face the saint, do you understand the rules?" ”
As he spoke, Lin Duan made a gesture to him asking for money.
"Rules? It was Grandpa Lin who brought me here. ”
Liang Xiao frowned and looked at Feiyun on the side, but Feiyun turned his head and ignored him.
Lin Duan sneered: "Now you are under our control, and Grandpa Lin is not useful!" ”
Liang Xiao pondered, and it was important to face the saint first, so he took out a hundred taels of silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Lin Duan: "Father-in-law, please smile." ”
Lin Duan accepted the silver ticket and said with a smile: "Come with our family." ”
Liang Xiao followed behind Lin Duan and said nothing.
This dead eunuch in yellow is also delicate, but he is far from Lin Gong, who he knows.
The two walked to the corridor ten zhang away from the imperial study, and happened to meet the empress Duan Yunyi, who came back from a private visit to Weifu.
Another yellow-clothed dead eunuch with a delicate face?
Seeing Duan Yunyi walking towards him, Liang Xiao was annoyed.
Lin Duan was about to salute, but Duan Yunyi had already taken the first step and said, "You are Liang Xiao?" This is the Royal Palace, beware..."
"I understand, I understand!"
Liang Xiao walked up with a smile and took out a silver ticket from his arms.
Under the shocked gaze of everyone, Liang Xiao grabbed Duan Yunyi's hand and stuffed the silver ticket into Duan Yunyi's hand.
"Father-in-law, please smile!"
