Daming female local tyrant

Of course, Shen Wan's method cannot be disclosed to Jing Lan.

After all, she is a reborn person, and some of the secrets she has grasped are too early for her age. Even if she doesn't want to hide anything from Jing Lan, this is something that cannot be said, and she is afraid of scaring Jing Lan.

"Lan'er, you'll know when the time comes. Although I have such an idea, how to do it depends on the right time, place and people, as well as proper consideration." Shen Wan leaned on Jing Lan's shoulder and said.

Jing Lan stroked her back and said softly: "You're right, we usually don't cause trouble, and we are not afraid of trouble when trouble arises. Now that your father has sent guards from the Shen family, Xiao Yulang still wants to take advantage of the crowd and break into the house." We can't do it anymore. Let's see each other and discuss things together, even if we encounter any obstacles, we can get over it."

The two were chatting and laughing together for a while, and then they heard Kikyo saying through the curtain that the New Year's dinner was ready, and a table and screen had been set up outside to invite Shen Wan and Jing Lan to go out for dinner.

Because today is the new year, Shen Wan, as the master, wants to celebrate the new year with the servants of the old house, so a screen was placed in the hall, the women sat inside, and Qiu Liu and others sat outside. Sit at that table outside.

Shen Wan went to the main hall of Xiulou with Jing Lan and sat at the table inside. Zhao Siniang brought Bai Ju and others with food boxes and filled the table with the food inside.

After a lively lunch, Cuizhu and the others accompanied Shen Wan to play leaf cards in the afternoon.

Shen Wan intends to give some money to the maids who have served her for a year, so she loses more and doesn't want their money when she wins.

In the afternoon, the servants including Zhao Siniang had at least one or two taels of silver in their accounts, and they were all overjoyed.

In the evening, Shen Wan stopped celebrating the Spring Festival with the servants. She asked Zhao Siniang to cook a few delicate side dishes that Jing Lan taught her, and then set up a shabu-shabu with some tofu, vegetables and fish slices. The people set up a small table in the Xici room, and the two drank and laughed at each other, eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

The inside of the room was as warm as spring because of the large braziers. Jing Lan and Shen Wan wore thin padded jackets with moon, white clouds and geese pattern alone, and satin jackets with cinnabar red peony, gold, jade and wealth patterns alone.Shen Wan combed a bunch of silk, Jing Lan put her hair in a high bun, and inserted a golden hairpin with two lotus petals.

The two rolled up their sleeves and guessed, and the loser drank.

This wine is also sweet wine, Jing Lan likes to drink it, so she doesn't take it seriously when she loses, she just leans her neck and drinks it.

However, in order to make this kind of happiness last longer, Shen Wan did not use a wine bowl to pour the wine, but a small pastel wine cup to pour the wine.

The snow outside was falling heavily, and the snow wind blew through the window lattices, making the window paper rattle, and the snow wind seeped in through the window cracks from time to time.The sound of laughter from Cuizhu and others in the wing was wrapped in the wind, making the night even more silent, and it also made Shen Wan and Jing Lan in the banquet room in the west room feel that they are full of each other at this moment.

Good food and wine, beauties by your side, or mutual affection, both Shen Wan and Jing Lan hope that this moment can be longer, longer...

It wasn't until the two of them drank a jar of wine and finished eating half of the table's dishes that they were both drunk, and they took each other back to the inner room.

They hugged each other and fell on the bed, and then continued to taste the sweetness between each other's lips and tongues, and continue to magnify the joy just now.

In the brocade tent, the spring is boundless in an instant, and the warbler's song is melodious.

……

A few days after the small year is the big year.

On New Year's Eve, the Shen family's old house was even more lively, not only decorated with lanterns and festoons, but also the best fireworks in Jinhe Town, attracting the townspeople to look up one after another.

From the first day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Wan and Jing Lan received guests and relatives from the Yu family who came to pay New Year's greetings, and then they would go to other homes to pay New Year's greetings.

After coming and going, soon on the ninth day of the first lunar month, all the shops in Jinhe Town opened up and began to do business again.Shen Ji's silk and satin shop also opened, and Jing Lan started to get busy again.

Shen Wan had already chosen the Suzhou City side, and the shop that she negotiated to rent was also opened, and shopkeeper Wu and the brothers from the Zhuo family were in charge of opening the shop there.

Since the store was planned to open last year and all aspects were well prepared, Shen Wan basically went to Suzhou every two days to see how the new silk and satin store was getting ready.

After she came back, she told Jing Lan that everything was going well, and on the first day of February, the selected auspicious day, the Shenji silk and satin shop in Suzhou City would be able to open for business.

Opening this relatively large silk and satin shop, the two of them also calculated how much money they could make. About 600 taels of silver would be credited to the account in a month. In addition to various expenses, they could make a net profit of 5000 taels of silver in a year.

With this money, next year Shen Wan can open a weaving workshop, buy looms, and hire workers to weave satin.

Jing Lan once asked Shen Wan why she had to set up a weaving workshop.

Shen Wan told her that because the weaving workshop can take over the work of the government, the so-called work of the government means that the satin weaves will be sent to the palace.

Any weaving workshop that takes over the work of the government can not only earn money, but also gain a reputation.

With a reputation, the business of the silk and satin shop he opened is better than that of his peers.

If we talk about the silk and satin industry, we can quickly open up the situation, sell the most satin, earn the most money, open a weaving workshop, and get a job from the government is a shortcut.

Although Jing Lan just heard Shen Wan say such a shortcut to quickly accumulate fame and wealth by opening a weaving workshop, she also understands the key here.

That is, there are many people who have money to open weaving workshops, but very few people can get government jobs. In Suzhou, it is the satin that the Suzhou Weaving Yamen is responsible for weaving for the imperial palace.

It has nothing to do with it, and it can't be obtained, especially if it has something to do with the eunuch in charge of the Suzhou Weaving Yamen.

The person in charge of weaving in the weaving yamen of Suzhou is a senior eunuch who came out of the palace and was trusted by the emperor. How should this relationship be resolved?

So, she told Shen Wan about her doubts, and asked her to explain how she could get through this relationship.

Unexpectedly, Shen Wan said: "Don't ask this in a hurry, isn't our weaving workshop opened yet? It's still a year away. When it opens a year later, I will naturally give you a surprise."

"After you said that, I became more and more curious, Wanwan, how many secrets and abilities do you have that I don't know?"

"My wife, don't you like me if I have the ability?"

"Of course I like it, well, then I will just wait for the good news from my wife."

Fortunately, Jing Lan is a modern time traveler, she adheres to the principle of getting along with each other, giving each other a certain amount of freedom, not breaking the casserole and asking the truth about everything, and she doesn't ask about things that Shen Wan doesn't want to talk about.

Shen Wan likes Jing Lan very much, she thinks this is the reason why Jing Lan is open-minded.

Compared with Jing Lan in the previous life, Shen Wan found that Jing Lan in this life is very different, not only in intelligence, but also in bearing and heart, she is stronger than Jing Lan in the previous life.

Jing Lan in this life is very capable. In less than a year, she has been able to preside over the business of the silk and satin shop in Jinhe Town. At the same time, the family affairs are also arranged very properly.

She likes Jing Lan like this, but she is also worried that Jing Lan is too capable and will leave her in the future, so she will never stay at home and be a virtuous woman.She hoped that she would always be a little bit better than Jing Lan, so that Jing Lan would always look up to her and not feel betrayed.

On the first day of February, Shenji Silk and Satin Village in Suzhou opened as scheduled.

Because there is a capable person like shopkeeper Wu in charge of the store business, with the help of fellows like the Zhuo family brothers, and with the full support of the Tao family, many new designs and colors of goods were sent to Shenji silk and satin shop.

As soon as the silk and satin shop opened, the business was very good.

Three months later, the sales of satin at the silk and satin village more than doubled what Shen Wan expected.Many merchants from other places also come to Shenji Silk and Satin Shop to purchase goods, and some of them sell their goods overseas.

It was already the second year of Longqing. As soon as Emperor Longqing succeeded to the throne, he abolished the closed-door policy of his father, Emperor Jiajing, and reopened it, allowing merchants to do business with foreign countries again.

And silk satin is the most popular Chinese product for foreigners. Suddenly, the number of people selling silk satin abroad for profit increased greatly, and the merchants who sold silk satin sold more goods.

Shen Wan's newly opened Shenji silk and satin shop sold twice as much as expected in three months, thanks to the new opening and closing policy of the imperial court. Doing business.

Jing Lan thought that Shen Wan opened a new large silk and satin shop in Suzhou with a lot of vision, and it was just at the right time, no wonder the business was so booming.It seems that by the end of the year, the money earned will double the expected 5000 taels, and it is estimated to be tens of thousands.

The booming business of Shenji Silk and Satin Shop lasted until August, and it seemed that the Mid-Autumn Festival would be celebrated in three days. On August [-]th, an official from the Suzhou government came to take away shopkeeper Wu, and ordered Shen Ji silk and satin village closed its doors and put a seal on the door.

Shen Wan got the news from the brothers of the Zhuo family who rushed to the Shen family's old house.

She asked Zhuo's brothers if the officials from the Suzhou government office had given any reason when they came to take shopkeeper Wu away.

The Zhuo family brothers reported back: "Those officials who came to arrest shopkeeper Wu and ordered the shop to close down said that a merchant who bought our silk shipped it to Japan for sale and was exposed and reported. The government arrested him and found that he was a The Japanese people who have lived in our Suzhou for a long time, our shop was implicated in it, and the crime was of colluding with the Japanese."

"Tongwa?" Shen Wan's face turned cold, and then she sneered, "It's a good thing they figured out this crime."

In the first year of Longqing, although the emperor ordered the switch to be switched on again, the people could do business with foreign countries, but the places they could go were other places except the Wa Kingdom.Anyone who was caught transporting goods to the country of Wa would be charged with the crime of collaborating with the country.

When Emperor Longqing’s son, Emperor Jiajing, was alive, his generals often fought wars with the Wa Kingdom. When Emperor Longqing succeeded to the throne, he did not forget this hatred, so the Wa Kingdom was listed separately, and merchants and common people in Ming Dynasty were still prohibited from transporting goods by ship. place of sale.

If there is any disobedience, it will be punished as Tongwo, and if the situation is serious, it will even be beheaded.

The most common thing is to fine money and go to jail and exile.

The author has something to say: Thank you GN for your concern. I went to the hospital to see it. It seems that it will take a while to recover.
