Chapter 419: Xiao Zhanpeng felt sorry for his old son-in-law

With Cheng Yousan, the living treasure, the already lively Xiao family is even more lively, and the guards who came back together sat at the dinner table after finishing their work, eating meat and drinking wine, Cheng Yousan poured wine for people on the side, and asked people how the new business was going, and if there was anything particularly interesting.

These dart masters all know Cheng Yousan, and they are also bold, laughing quite loudly when talking about interesting things, and even popularizing Cheng Yousan to see the new rules outside, and Cheng Yousan, who listened, nodded again and again, eager to go on a trip himself.

Cheng Xiaosi and Yuan Su sat in the garden together to talk to her grandmother, Mrs. Xiao said that Xiao Chengli was back, and the family was going to prepare for his happy event, Cheng Xiaosi was curious, "Do you do it in the capital or go back to your hometown?" ”

"Naturally, I want to go back to my hometown."

Xiao Chengxin and Xiao Chengli have both set up family affairs, and they are also the girls of Xiao Zhanpeng's old friend's family, one family is a martial arts museum, and the other family is a horse seller, it is said that the girls of both families are cool and very good.

Cheng Xiaosi glanced at Yuan Su with a smile, told him about the origins of his two future cousins-in-law, and quipped: "In this way, my grandfather's family is a master of both men and women." ”

Yuan Su smiled and got up and arched his hand, "Please also ask Xiaosi to cover me in the future." ”

Cheng Xiaosi was overjoyed, and Mrs. Xiao also laughed, "This girl is getting more and more naughty." ”

At this moment, the emperor had already seen Xiao Zhanpeng, and when he saw that this old man had been running out and tossing for a few months and coming back so energetic, he was quite envious in his heart, "The old man doesn't have to be polite, how about this new business road?" ”

Xiao Zhanpeng replied respectfully, "If you go back to the emperor, it will be much better than expected, the road is not difficult, but you have to pass through a very desert, the journey of nearly three days is deserted and there is no water, this trip is quite smooth, but if there are more people walking, that place is only afraid that it is easy to breed bandits." ”

"The grassland tribes are very interested in the road we are taking, but they don't dare to cross the desert for the time being, and in the mouth of the grassland people, they say that the desert there is an ominous place."

"As far as we know, the local grassland tribes are among the most difficult in the whole grassland, mainly because of the shortage of food, but they have a lot of furs, jerky, and a considerable amount of medicinal herbs, and they also have open-pit coal mines."

Xiao Zhanpeng said what he saw and understood, and the light in the emperor's eyes flashed, and he immediately decided to build a mutual market in that desert, not to mention that it was a grassland in the past, even if it was all sand, it was also their land in Xijin, and they had to start first.

The coal mine is good, there are other mines are better, what to do, greedy, want to take that grassland.

"The old man has had a hard trip."

Xiao Zhanpeng hurriedly saluted, and spoke as he spoke, most afraid that the emperor would suddenly be polite.

Cheng Daqi said that the opening of the new trade road means more opportunities, and more and more merchants will try their luck, but it is still too scattered for the imperial court, and there should be a yamen who can directly manage these people, and it is good to open a post station on the road.

The emperor also thought so, his eyes fell on Cheng Daqi, and he had an idea in his heart.

You must know that he is very satisfied with Cheng Daqi's performance over the past year, but he has not given Cheng Daqi much real power, Cheng Daqi has only one uncle's title so far, and there is no official position.

"Daqi, I want to set up a trading house, a trading house affiliated with the imperial court, what do you think?"

Cheng Daqi hurriedly gave up his hand, "The emperor is wise." ”

It's long overdue.

The emperor smiled and picked up the tea, "I'll think about it again." ”

Xiao Zhanpeng thinks that this emperor is very interesting, you don't know what he means, if you can't do it in one sentence, what else do you want?

The key is that he brought it up himself, and suddenly he felt sorry for this old son-in-law, and he would deal with the emperor tomorrow, no wonder everyone was thin.

When he came out of the palace, he exhaled a breath fiercely, not to mention, seeing the emperor was more tired than going to bet on a dart.

With the arrival of this batch of goods in the city more and more lively, each family began to clean up the goods that night, originally ready to sell in batches, they all chose to take the goods to the annual fair to sell piecemeal, after all, the price of scattered goods is higher, and some people are already beginning to prepare for the next departure.

Cheng Daqi was even busier, the emperor handed over some of the errands of the new business road to him, and he had to worry about the New Year's Festival, but fortunately, Cheng Daqian could help share part of the work, otherwise he would have to lose two pounds.

At this time, the emperor announced the establishment of a commercial house affiliated to the imperial court, or the kind that did not allow outside merchants to become shareholders, and even the commercial bank established with the Wang family before would be under this commercial bank, and the person in charge of the commercial bank was Cheng Daqi.

Clear-eyed people know at a glance that this is a big fat difference, the business houses backed by the imperial court will be unmatched, each family wants to get a piece of the pie, Cheng Daqi has become a fragrant dumpling in the court, and it is difficult to get out of the palace gate under the court, and the people who come up are groups after groups.

"Uncle, you can't forget about the lower officials, no matter what position you are, as long as you can serve the court."

"Uncle, there are also sons and daughters in the Xiaguan Mansion who have a lot of experience in doing business, if the opportunity is right, please ask the uncle to give me a chance, the Xiaguan is grateful."

"Uncle Shunyi, congratulations, so you are afraid that you will be busy, if you need help at any time, Ben Hou will definitely help you."

Cheng Daqi was busy greeting these people, the emperor had just mentioned it before, he didn't have any preparations, who did he want without knowing anything?

It was not easy to get out of the palace, and as soon as he got home, Xiao He came and asked him if something had happened, "There are five worship posts in one hour, and some people are not very familiar with it before." ”

Cheng Daqi said the reason, Xiao He sighed, turned around and went to find the Qin family, I only felt that this year was not good, and I didn't know what it would be like to be tired.

The Qin family is very busy, because Cheng Sanniang is still half a month away from getting married, fortunately, Tu Miaoniang can support half of the things now, otherwise she can only catch Cheng Xiaosi to be a strong man, listening to Xiao He's words, she looked up at the sky and took a deep breath, "It's also a good thing." ”

Xiao He said that from today onwards, she will go to the dart game in the morning and be at home in the afternoon, after all, the dart game at the end of the year is also very busy.

"I told Lin Xiang about the accounts, she can help, Xiaosi don't let her be idle, just Sanniang, don't tire her anymore, let her have a good rest."

Tu Yaoniang on the side has not been very happy for the past two days, and she didn't know that the Cheng family was so busy at the end of the year, so she pressed the discomfort on her body and didn't speak, Xiao closed her eyes, and saw that her face was a little swollen, and it was whiter than before, and the white was not bloody, "Youqian's daughter-in-law is uncomfortable?" ”

"Do I see if you have this?"
