1. Birthplace

In 1888 AD, it was the 14th year of Guangxu, when the British army invaded Tibet in the Qing Dynasty. The Beiyang Marine Division of the army was established—but none of this had anything to do with Liu Erhan, a guy at Mipu.Now that he has finished his day's work, he is talking to his daughter Guilan about the Young Master's home that just came back today: "I haven't seen you in the past few years, and the Young Master's family has grown so big. It looks more and more like the second grandma who passed away."

Just as he was talking, Zhu He, the young master he was talking about, stepped into the door.Zhu He's father is Zhu Cong, the shopkeeper of Mipu.This master Zhu Cong is not just running a rice shop business.Zhu's family is a family of merchants, and their ancestors were born in Shanxi merchants. Relying on their meticulous handling and not afraid of hardship, the family business has been saved little by little, and they are also a well-known family in the local wealthy.When the Qing soldiers entered the pass, the Ming Dynasty was destroyed.The Zhu family has a big business, even if they are cautious, they will not be immune to disaster.At any rate, the Zhu family made friends with several dignitaries when they were in business. Now that the dynasty has changed, some of them have changed positions and continued to work in politics.The family property is gone, and the relatives are dead.This descendant of the Zhu family couldn't help but wept a lot, carefully starting the business from scratch, trying to get back the previous glory.The family rules for dealing with officialdom were also set at this time.The descendants of Zhu's family are also very competitive. When they came to Zhu Cong's grandfather, they opened the business from Shanxi to Suzhou. This grandfather was shrewd. Nothing was wasted, the daughter married the weaving envoy of Jiangning and became the third concubine, and the son also married the daughter of the Ye family, the largest silk business in Jiangsu, "Neon Clothes".This Zhu family has established itself in the most prosperous Jiangnan in the Qing Dynasty.

Zhu Cong's father was born to the daughter of the Ye family, which is also strange for the Ye family, with two sons and three daughters, but Zhu Cong's father is the only grandson.The white-bearded old man stood in the ancestor's ancestral hall for a whole night, saying that the family business was passed on to his sons and not to his daughters, but there was no way for him to have two sons and so many concubines without giving birth to a boy.In this way, the Ye family's business was handed over to Zhu Cong's father.This father is also amazing, and he made persistent efforts to expand his business from weaving to silkworm farming, and finally even started a real estate business——buying land, hiring people to raise silkworms, and uniting the Ye family, Zhu family, and others. The power of the weaving envoy started the "imperial court enshrinement".Zhu Cong's father bought a big manor, and took good care of the Ming buildings in the garden. He often invited some celebrities, dignitaries, and business elites to come and talk, so that the eldest son Zhu Cong could listen to more. Look, take on the business of these two.

Zhu Cong is also a smart person. Growing up with everyone, he naturally learned to read words and listen to others.Moreover, because of his exposure to the three teachings and nine streams, he is naturally well-versed in human feelings and has excellent experience.When Zhu Cong took charge of the family business, the Qing Empire was already in turmoil. Zhu Cong had a long-term vision and realized the impact of foreign goods on China's local economy, so he gradually started the business of acting as an agent of foreign cloth, and even sent his son Zhu He to the German Empire. Knowledge of dyeing cloth.I also opened an old branch in Guangdong - the shop is not big, but the good thing is that I can get news from foreigners as quickly as possible, isn't it?This rice shop and money shop are also properties that were opened by the way—too few people are not enough to use and too many are not suitable, so I just opened a few more shops, so I can bring my son here. I am talking about management and learning to do business, but in fact it is Exercise and see how far this kid can go.

In this Guangdong store, several big guys and shopkeepers are old people. Liu Erhan is an old guy who has been with Zhu Cong for more than 30 years. Still listen to him.Zhu He and old fellows like Liu Erhan were already acquainted. This time they were outside together. It was Zhu Cong who told Liu Erhan to "take care of him and don't let him be mischievous."

This year, Zhu He took Guilan, the eldest daughter of the Liu family, as his concubine.Liu Erhan was so happy that his face blossomed.

And five years later, in 1894 AD, artillery fire rang out on the coast of China, but all this had nothing to do with Liu Erhan. One of his daughters gave birth to a daughter and died, and his second daughter Guixiang gave birth to the young master Zhu He. His son - Zhu Cong's third grandson.Zhu Cong sighed, let the kneeling Guilan and Zhu reconcile, and named the child "Zhu Qiming", which means he recognized the child.Guilan took Xiao Qiming away, and Guixiang threw himself into the river after crying all night.Liu Erhan looked at the crowd scrambling for rice at the door, and thought to himself: Dead, dead, everyone is dead.That is, in the winter of this year, Liu Erhan was defeated by the cold and passed away, and Zhu He went abroad to Japan again.Guilan lives in a side room in the Zhu family compound. The toddler in front of her is Xiao Qiming, who is still smiling innocently at her mother, unaware that she has no relatives on this continent. up.He also didn't know what kind of great changes his life would undergo.

2. Young Genius

Ye Lan felt that she had never seen such a smart child.

It was just seeing a little bird, and the kid who was shorter than him kept paddling on the ground, outlining the outline of the little bird after a few comparisons.

Ye Lan also squatted down: "Qi Ming, you are so powerful."

Zhu Qiming just raised his eyes, smiled briefly, touched his pocket with one hand, and then frowned.

Ye Lan looked at his cousin's performance with amused expression, then took out candy from her pocket, stuffed it into his cousin's small mouth, looked at his satisfied expression, and smiled.

After Zhu Qiming finished drawing the picture, he clapped his hands and stood up, threw himself into Ye Lan's body, and said vaguely: "Cousin is the best."

For Ye Lan, the cousin who cares about him, loves him, and always gives him delicious candies, Zhu Qiming really loves him.

Zhu Qiming is a genius, an out-and-out genius.

Rumors say,

As soon as Zhu Qiming learned to speak, he could recite the poems his father sang.

Rumors say.

As long as Zhu Qiming has seen something, he can draw it - at that time, he hadn't even started his private school studies.

It is said that

Zhu Qiming can use one mind at the same time in the private school. One time, when the husband got angry and saw him painting, he asked him about his lessons. Qiming recited the entire "Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion" that the husband just read!

It is said that...

Ye Lan likes this cousin very much, not only because he is smart, cute, lively, but also because of his enthusiasm and love hidden under the calmness.Cousin is the kind of child who smiles naturally when he sees it, and a child who has a special preference for sweets...Little Ye Lan sometimes has the illusion that Li Bai, the wild and unruly fairy who laughs up to the sky in poetry, is living in her own life. In this cousin's body.

"No class today?" Ye Lan asked.He himself received a new type of education. Although he did not look down on Chinese studies because of this, he felt that it was only Chinese education, which was too wronged Qiming.

"Go in the afternoon. I met my husband yesterday and got a half-day vacation." Zhu Qiming raised his head and smiled, with a proud expression on his face, like a child showing off to his parents, even though the person in front of him was only five years older than him age.

"Well, let's talk about it, what pair is it?" Ye Lan asked funny. zyzz

"Yesterday in class, my husband took everyone to Luopo. When I saw the waterwheel, my husband wrote an upper couplet: 'Waterwheel, waterwheel, water follows the vehicle. When the vehicle stops, the water stops.'"

"Good connection", Ye Lan praised, "But Qi Ming must be right, right?"

"Well," Chu Qiming smiled, "Actually, I didn't think of it right away. I happened to see a person fanning a fan, so I said 'fan, fan the wind, the wind comes out of the fan, fan the wind'"

"Oh, it's really a good match." Ye Lan smiled, and took out another candy: "Come on, reward me."

When the two of them were having fun, they asked the young master Biao in front of him, saying that there was a guest, and the two masters asked the young master Biao and the young master to go out for a while.

"Okay, got it" dismissed the servant, just seeing Qi Ming's unhappy face: "Doesn't Qi Ming like those people?"

"It's so annoying to sit still every time," Qi Ming said.

Ye Lan smiled, "Cousin will accompany you this time, let's go for a while and come back, okay?"

"Um"

It's just a formal entertainment, not an important guest.Zhu's and Ye's families didn't want their children to be of any use, they just wanted to gain insight.

After exchanging pleasantries, Master Ye asked casually, "Lan'er, what were you doing with Qi Ming just now?"

"We are talking about the right match." Ye Lan replied respectfully.

"Oh? That's right, this is Mr. Ma's specialty. You should ask Mr. Ma for advice."

"Where is it? It's just that there are some absolutes." Mr. Ma said modestly, and asked by the way: "It happens that I have some pairs, which I can tell the young master."

The first pair is: "Popper leaves, peach leaves, grape leaves, herbs and trees."

Zhu Qiming thought for a while, then said: "Plum blossoms, osmanthus flowers and roses, spring fragrance and autumn fragrance."

"Good! Good! The young master is really a god
