The next day, a sake brewery called Wanli Xiang appeared in the market where Babbitt was located.

When I heard that a jar of wine was sold for ten gold and the quantity was limited, and Feng robbed a few people to continue to make amway, and there were many dignitaries and nobles who wanted to try it, and for a time thousands of miles of incense were like a market.

In just two days, the first batch of wine brewed by Shang Shifu was snatched up, and the name of Wanli Xiang also resounded throughout Xianyang.

The 800 gold from the sale of wine was to be handed over to the state treasury at the rate of 8 tithes, and the rest was to be kept for my personal property.

When Feng Zao heard that Wanli Xiangshi was taxed, he wondered why my own property had to charge such a high tax. You must know that because of the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, the current city tax is generally 20 taxes and 1, which is already extremely high.

I only replied: "The emperor has no selfish wealth!" The little I have left behind has other uses, and the rest of nature is taken from the noble, and used for the poor. ”

There are also a lot of rumors in the market, saying that Wanlixiang's shopkeeper Yinglan is the emperor's sister, and some say that it is a nobleman of the Ying family, and there are rumors that it is the property of the Ba family......

When I heard these rumors from Meng Hebao, I smiled and didn't care.

Lan'er is the maid by my side, so naturally many people know her.

After Li Si and the two left yesterday, I thought about it and went straight to Wan'an Palace.

Listening to Liang tell me, Lan'er is still depressed. Thinking about it, staying in the palace all day, although she left the Sihai Palace, after all, she was still in Xianyang Palace, and there were so many rules and constraints, which would inevitably deepen her thoughts about the punishment.

When I arrived at Wan'an Palace, I saw Lan'er, and I was really haggard.

Lan'er was originally fair-skinned, although this is not uncommon in Guanzhong, but there are more people with wheat complexion, her eyes are also clear and bright, and her melon seed face is very attractive. Now her face is still so fair, but it has become a little pale, her eyes are not as smart as before, and she rarely sees a smile on her face.

When he saw me, he smiled from the bottom of his heart and bowed.

After chatting with Liang for a while, I explained my intentions.

"Lan'er, I want you to leave the palace, I mentioned this matter to the queen mother before, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Lan'er hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, but what did Lan'er do wrong?" ”

Seeing her crying, I quickly comforted, "It's not that you did anything wrong. I've heard that you're not comfortable in the palace, so I've found a place for you. ”

"Remember Peach Court? I opened a Wanli Xiang Distillery nearby, selling liquor brewed in Shang Shifu. It's just that I don't want the people to think that I am competing with the people for profit, so I need someone to run the winery for me. Now that there is no one in charge, I think of you, and if you want to, I will give you the winery. ”

Hearing this, Lan'er raised her little face, two lines of tears could not stop falling, bowed deeply, and said, "The slave is willing, thank you, Your Majesty!" Empress Dowager Xie! ”

This look is really pitiful to me.

"In addition, from today onwards, I will give you the surname Ying, the name Yinglan. In addition to enjoying the same rights as the Ying clan, you can enjoy the right to walk in the palace. ”

Lan'er knelt down directly, made a five-body bow to the ground, and choked up in her mouth: "Your Majesty Yinglan Xie, Empress Dowager Xie!" ”

Liang also sighed, and said weakly: "Hurry up, we will be a family from now on." ”

Yinglan got up and bowed again.

I laughed and said, "Okay, it's a good thing, how did you make it so sad." ”

Yinglan and Liang also laughed.

I got up and said, "You will go to Zongzheng in a while, and I will order Qiwan to go with you." After everything was settled, I went to Wanlixiang near Bashi Terrace, and I had already ordered Meng He to settle it. ”

Yinglan bowed down and responded: "Follow Your Majesty's order." ”

After chatting with the two of them for a while, I got up and went back.

After saying goodbye to Liang here, Lan'er first went to Yingwu for naturalization, and then went straight to Wanlixiang.

As soon as I arrived at Wanlixiang, I saw that there were already two people sitting in the shop, directing several strong men to move things into the house.

After Yinglan entered the house, the two also saw her. One of them was the first to stand up and speak, "It's Sister Yinglan, right?" ”

Yinglan only felt that this person was familiar, but she didn't remember who it was, so she hurriedly saluted: "Yes." ”

The man replied, "I'm Ba Taoyao, and this is my sister Ba Ling." ”

It was Tao Yao and Ba Ling.

I originally wanted Meng He to take full charge of it, but Meng He didn't know anything about business, and he didn't even know how to set up the counter, let alone arrange the account room and manage things.

In desperation, I had to ask him to find Tao Yao and help set up the shop.

Ying Lan also remembered, and suddenly realized: "Ying Lan has seen her sister and sister. I once had a relationship with my sister, but I didn't think about it for a while, don't blame my sister. ”

Tao Yao showed an understanding smile, approached Yinglan, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty ordered me to help you set up the shop." ”

Then he said: "Congratulations on the opening of my sister's winery!" ”

Ying Lan said gratefully: "Sister Xie helps." ”

Ba Ling blinked his eyes and looked Yinglan up and down, and said secretly in his heart: "I didn't expect Your Majesty to be young and have already learned to hide Jiao in the Golden House!" ’

Tao Yao saw that Yinglan also looked at Ba Ling, and when she turned her head to look at her expression, she knew that this girl was starting to think crankily again.

"Baling, don't be rude, how can you look at others like this, and you have forgotten...... A word of warning to you? ”

Baling pursed his lips and responded, "I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten!" ”

changed to a sweet smile and saluted: "I've seen Sister Yinglan." ”

Ying Lan saw that she was full of girlish nature, and she was also quite fond of it, so she replied with a salute: "Sister Baling is very lively." ”

Tao Yao held her forehead and sighed: "If she hadn't made a fuss and had to follow me, she would still be grounded at home." Since the last time a noble person admonished her, she only obeyed her for two days and then started to behave again, and I also have a headache. ”

Seeing that Tao Yao was about to drop her, Ba Ling hurriedly jumped and ran to the backyard, leaving only a gust of wind.

"I'll go and see if Sister Yinglan's bed is made!"

Tao Yao is big again.

Yinglan smiled: "Sister Baling is still young, and her nature is like this, so my sister doesn't have to worry." ”

Tao Yao also smiled and said, "The shop has been settled, and it will be opened tomorrow when someone comes to deliver wine, Your Majesty has made arrangements in advance, and the business will not be bad." ”

Ying Lan sighed lightly: "I'm just a maidservant, Your Majesty has thought so carefully about me, I feel that I can't repay it." ”

Tao Yao pulled Yinglan to sit down next to her and comforted: "Your Majesty is benevolent and virtuous, not comparable to ordinary people. As long as we are loyal to Your Majesty and do the things Your Majesty explains, it will be the greatest reward to Your Majesty. ”

Yinglan nodded: "In the future, I will need my sister to help me more." ”

Tao Yao smiled: "That's nature. However, there are still three days left for me to go to the Western Regions with the caravan, which is a long and dangerous journey. At that time, Baling was alone in Xianyang, and my sister watched her a lot for me. Although she is stubborn, she has some talent in business, and she can also help her sister. ”

Ying Lanqi said: "Western Regions? Where is that? ”

Yinglan has never been out of the palace, and she doesn't know much about many things now.

Tao Yao dragged Yinglan to the backyard and told Yinglan about the recent events, and the two chatted until sunset before they reluctantly separated.
