Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Chapter 1835 Gossip

Man Bao counted the various loopholes he knew with his fingers, "It is said that officials can't do business, but none of the officials in the DPRK and China have one or two servants hanging out with shops? No matter how bad it is, there are relatives and friends who can cooperate Basically, as long as you don’t fall down, these cooperations can go on for a long time.”

She did not shy away and said directly: "For example, the imperial physician of our Imperial Physician Office, Xiao Yuanzheng has several pharmacies in his home, and they are listed under the names of his two sons. Although Imperial Physician Liu and the others do not have their own pharmacy, they all have close friends. Pharmacy, occasionally go to those pharmacies to place orders, or help them visit some patients who are very important but cannot be hired by an imperial doctor..."

"There are also some pharmacists who can be recommended for pharmacies. Just based on these, you don't need to pay to get a share every year," Man Bao said: "I come from Ji Shitang, and the shopkeeper Zheng Da has hinted several times that you can get it from the shops in the capital. Give me 10% of the proceeds."

Chang Yu and Ming Da opened their mouths wide, and Ming Da asked curiously, "Did you take it?"

Man Bao shook his head, "I was also moved, but thinking about it carefully, with this 10 percent of the income, I will have more responsibilities in the future. If I go to other places, I will not feel comfortable, so it is still Ding, Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao, forget it. ."

Yin He: "But don't you go to Jishitang from time to time? I heard from my eldest sister that someone wanted to invite you from the Imperial Physician's Office, but the Imperial Physician's Office didn't approve it, so I ended up going the way of Jishitang. to you."

"Hey, are you talking about the wife of the Pei family?" Man Bao said, "I only went out to this outpatient clinic last time."

She smiled and said: "She gave the money, and there is a fee for the consultation, why didn't she go to the doctor? Speaking of which, I would like to thank the shopkeeper Zheng for recruiting patients for me. This is considered reciprocity. How can I be embarrassed to take money from the shopkeeper Zheng? "

Bai Shan said: "This is the difference between thin skin and thick skin, but officials who have been in the officialdom for a few years, if they love money, no matter how thin they are, they will become thicker. Therefore, it is impossible to expect officials to be self-disciplined. Row."

Mingda said: "The DPRK and China have clearly stipulated that officials can't do business. How else can they stipulate that they can't require their servants and relatives not to do business?"

"This definitely won't work," Bai Shan and Man Bao didn't need to object, Bai Erlang said directly: "If Bai Shan passes the examination to become a jinshi in the future, but I don't pass the examination, then I will definitely go home to farm."

He said: "Besides the busy farming season, I must do some business to make a living. If my relatives can't do business, what should I do?"

Crowd: ...

Mingda looked at him curiously and asked, "Are you still in business?"

"That's right," Bai Erlang said, "I have so much land, I have to take out the food I harvest. If I see good-looking silk, satin, brocade, etc. outside, I can bring it back to Mianzhou and Yizhou."

That's what his father did, but his father seldom did such a thing himself, he always asked the steward to come forward, and he would just take care of the steward.

The water in the stove on the side boiled, and a grunt sounded, and the pot on the top gave off the aroma of meat. Yin or meal, who was about to speak, turned his head and asked, "Why is there still steamed meat? "

Man Bao said: "I asked Mr. to bring it in today."

Chang Yu also smelled the fragrance, took a breath and said, "It's really fragrant, how many bowls did you bring?"

"Three bowls, I brought all the ones that Mr. brought into the palace." Man Bao said to Yin He: "You can eat more of this, Mr. said that my sister-in-law said that the nobles in the palace are definitely not short of oil and water, so This time, she made the powder a little thicker, and put some radishes under it, so the steamed meat is not so greasy."

Yin He's expression didn't change much: "Actually, it's the same as before."

Liu Huan turned his head and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Yin or nodded, "they gave me some during Chinese New Year."

At that time, he was shocked when he received this New Year's gift. It was the first time he received steamed meat as a New Year's gift, but he ate two pieces that night, and left the rest to his father, grandmother and six. Sister ate, very sorry.

Liu Huan was jealous in the scent, "Why don't you give it to me?"

Man Bao blinked, couldn't help but look at Bai Shan, hesitantly said, "I'll give you a copy next time? The New Year's gift we give to your family is not cheap, right? This steamed pork is not worth much, and your family's A lot, here's a bowl for you, can you eat a piece?"

Liu Huan thought it too. They have many families, which are different from Yin or theirs.

Seeing that the confusion was over, Man Bao quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that they strayed from the topic again, Chang Yu couldn't help but banged on the table and asked, "Speaking of which, are you still discussing it?"

Man Bao reassured her: "Don't worry, this kind of thing can't be discussed once or twice. Anyway, you still have a long time to get married, and you are not in a hurry to do business."

Mingda is no longer in a hurry. She took a sip of tea and saw that she was afraid that it was true to talk about things, to eat delicious food, and even to chat happily.

She also turned her head and said to Chang Yu: "Or don't think about doing business. Like me, you can take care of the fief at that time. The Wei family is expensive, and Young Master Wei may not be suitable for your luxury."

Chang Yu said: "Then we can live separately. He lives in Wei's house, and I live in the princess' mansion. How good? I'm more comfortable."

Mingda didn't expect her sister to have this idea, she rounded her eyes, and Man Bao also widened her eyes, and asked in disbelief, "Are husband and wife living together?"

Chang Yu said as a matter of course: "Of course you can live together. Several of my sisters and brother-in-law don't live together. If something happens, I will call the concubine to the princess' mansion to talk."

Bai Shan couldn't help but become curious, "How about the relationship between the concubine and the princess?"

Chang Yu thought for a while and said, "There are bad ones, and naturally there are also good ones."

Man Bao shook his head and said to her, "My parents have never been separated."

Bai Shan: "I feel a little sympathetic to Brother Wei now."

Changyu:  …

Mingda didn't think so. She said, "This is the privilege of a royal princess. It's not easy for women in this world. Only you men are allowed to sleep in flowers and willows and decide whether to go home. Women are not allowed to have their own houses and places to live?"

Man Bao nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes."

Bai Shan: "...I live in your house now."

Bai Erlang said: "Actually, a house for one person is still too big. If you want to play together, you have to walk a long way. If you really want to be at ease, one person has a yard, you are free, if you want to talk and play together, it's fine. Come together."

Yin Or: "...Aren't we really going to talk about the business of officials and royal relatives?"

Bai Shandao: "Actually, there is nothing to say about this. These problems are well known. The solution I can think of at the moment is that close relatives cannot do business in the places under the jurisdiction of officials. Close relatives include relatives within three generations and wives within two generations. Relatives; there is a stricter tax assessment to minimize tax evasion and evasion.”
