Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

There has been a lot of rain this year, but the temperature in the south is really not low. Wu County is said to be in the south. Compared with the territory of the vassal king, it is considered to be in the north.Relatively speaking, the weather in Wangcun is still very moderate. Although there is humidity, it is still good.Going to the feudal king's territory this time, he didn't pass by Wu County, nor did he deliberately turn over to take a look. Wang Xiujin thought about going back to Wang Village when he returned to Beijing, and now it's important to hurry.

The journey along the way can be called day and night, and it can also be said to be a fast horse. That's it. It took more than a month to arrive at Qiucheng in Yunnan and Guizhou. Now, how can I care about my identity and manners? I rubbed the sore spots on my body while walking, hoping to reduce the pain.Seeing Mr. Li Er, Wang Xiujin performed the junior ceremony, and asked directly when he would eat, and then he needed to rest. He would take a walk in the city tomorrow, and then go to the government office here to see.The matter of establishing a workshop is not to come here today, but to make a decision tomorrow.

Master Li Er didn't think that Wang Xiujin was being rude. We are all a family, so it's better to go straight to each other. It's too tiring to go around in circles all the time.Instruct the kitchen to prepare the meals, and then ask someone to fetch water, and ask the group to wash and change their clothes first.

After Wang Xiujin cleaned up, he felt much more comfortable. It was not as hot as he imagined, and it was even cooler than the capital, which surprised Wang Xiujin.Although the temperature is lower, the humidity is not low at all, but I still feel comfortable.Wang Xiujin asked his servants to light the incense that smoked insects, so as not to attract mosquitoes when he fell asleep at night.

After leaving the house, Wang Xiujin walked around the yard, but after all, it was in the barracks, so Wang Xiujin didn't dare to wander around, he could only look around, and then went back to the yard, someone came and led him to the dining hall , Wang Xiujin thought that he might not leave in a day or two after arriving here, and he should rent a yard, after all, it is inconvenient to live in a military camp.During the meal, I mentioned this matter to Master Li Er, and Master Li Er did not refuse, "After renting the house, I will send some people there. This is not the capital city. It is easier to do things with the help of local people."

Naturally, Wang Xiujin would not refuse, even if Mandarin is widely used in later generations, when he went to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places, he still could not understand the local language, let alone, it is a good thing to have a beneficiary to help.After the meal, Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan shared their thoughts, and of course they did not forget to ask where Li Sushan and his party lived. Li Sushan decided to move out with Wang Xiujin with the two of them without even thinking about it. As for the others, they stayed in the barracks.Wang Xiujin had no doubts about Li Sushan's arrangement. After taking a walk in the yard, Wang Xiujin yawned again and again, then separated from Li Sushan and went back to sleep.

After a good night's sleep, Wang Xiujin stretched himself, shook his arms and kicked his feet in the yard, and asked the servant to call Li Sushan, who was going to go out for a stroll, to see if there were any early ones, and to taste the snacks here OK.After a while, Li Xiujin came over, the two asked about the location of the market, and went out.

The markets all over the country are similar, there is no big difference. In the morning, there are many people coming and going, and there are constant yelling. Unfortunately, the two of them can't understand what they are yelling. The food stall, but the two looked at it, and couldn't whet their appetite, so they could only go back home silently.

After listening to the experience of the two of them going out for a while, Master Li Er was very happy, "Don't say it's the first time you see these local foods and you can't get your appetite, even if I stay here for a while, I can't get used to it." I can't adapt, not because the food is not clean, but because there are many small animals with high protein in the food.

After eating normal food in the barracks, Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan went out with the people sent to them by Master Li Er.First went to Xunguanya.Wang Xiujin discussed with Li Sushan, and after renting the house, they would return to the barracks for three meals, and Li Sushan nodded in agreement.Although they won't stay for a few days and leave, they won't stay for too long either. Ruiwen, who came all the way from Jingcheng Road to clean up the house, can do it. It's because local food is unacceptable to them. If they hire a cook who can cook Beijing style, they are not short of money, but it is not necessary.

With the locals following, it was not difficult to rent a yard, and it was done in one morning. The location was not far from the military camp, and both of them were very satisfied.The two also noticed that the former vassal prince's mansion was also listed for rent and sale, and they also went in to take a look around. The place is not small, but if they want to build a workshop, it is still a bit smaller.After all, it was the mansion of the vassal king. Before the emperor made a formal statement, it was listed to the public. Some people were tempted, but they didn't dare to do anything. No one dared to guess what the emperor was thinking.

When the two came out of the feudal prince's mansion, they were a little bit tongue-in-cheek about the extravagant attire in the mansion. One of them was not short of money, and the other had real power in his family.Wang Xiujin lamented that the king of one side is really different, just like the emperor of the land, even if the imperial decree is issued, and the governor comes over, it is estimated that the stone will fetch water and sink to the bottom, which will not have any effect. The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away. .

After renting the house, Wang Xiujin is not in a hurry to renovate the workshop. He has to check the situation in the city first. Whether it is an oil workshop or a textile workshop, the places needed are not small. How will the money for relocation be distributed? How to divide the land and how to accommodate the people who moved away are all problems.Money was not a problem. Wang Xiujin brought a lot of cash with him during this trip, packed it in boxes casually, and didn't show too much caution, so he didn't attract attention.The biggest problem other than money is when the fourth prince's construction team will arrive.

They spent some money to hire someone to clean up the house, and Wang Xiujin and Li Sushan brought people to move there. They didn't bring many things, just simple clothes, and everything else was left in the barracks.

"Buy more meat, and if there are rabbits, buy a few." Wang Xiujin felt that after a night of disturbing in the military camp, he had something to entrust to Mr. Li Er, so he had to treat someone to a good meal as a reward, so he gave it to him. The local servants took some money and let him run errands.

After listening to Wang Xiujin's instructions, Li Sushan guessed what Wang Xiujin meant, "But you want barbecue? How about I take someone up the mountain? Is there anything you want to eat?"

"Which kind of mountain is this meeting? I'm not familiar with the place where I live. It's better to be honest and eat ready-made ones." Wang Xiujin rolled his eyes. Why bother to venture into the mountains and cause trouble for things that can be bought with money. "The mountains and forests here are no better than those in the north. Who knows if there are poisonous snakes infesting them, or buy ready-made ones."

Li Sushan could only nod his head, and didn't mention the matter of going up the mountain, "I'm afraid buying ready-made ones won't be enough for so many people in the barracks, and everyone may not be able to share a share."

"This..." Wang Xiujin knew that what Li Sushan said was true, but he always felt that the mountains here were too dangerous.

"People in the military camp must go up the mountain from time to time to touch a rabbit or kill a wild boar, just let them go." No matter how strict the military camp is, there will always be a few thorns doing something outrageous near the side of the mountain. Things, although there is no shortage of food now, but it is impossible to offer meat every day, every day, and the man who can't bear it sneaks out to touch a rabbit and comes back to make tooth sacrifices. It is not too outrageous, and the boss will turn a blind eye. glance.

"You can have this, I will say it, or you will say it?" This matter needs to be greeted.Wang Xiujin didn't wait for Li Sushan to answer, and answered, "Let me go! You go and tell the matter, otherwise you will be criticized by General Li."

Li Sushan hooked Wang Xiujin's finger, his eyes were full of smiles, he especially liked watching Wang Xiujin think about this and that for him.

Wang Xiujin went to look for Mr. Li Er, and told everyone about the barbecue and the difficulties, and then asked Mr. Li if he could let someone hunt some wild game back.Master Li Er listened to Zhile, then nodded in agreement, and expressed his hope for the barbecue at night.

Qiucheng is preparing for the barbecue, and in the capital, the Zuo Xiang who was sent to the prison before has been interrogated similarly, involving more than a dozen murder cases, hundreds of official business cases, and even involved the court ladies in the palace. With the change of waiting, the emperor couldn't sleep for several days after hearing about it, and he didn't know whether he was frightened or angry.In addition to these two crimes, there is also nearly ten million taels of silver embezzlement, and the silver moved out of Zuoxiang's mansion can be piled up into a hill.

The account clearing staff in the Metropolitan Procuratorate scratched the abacus every day, calculating how much money they could share, and each of them had a golden light in their eyes.Some people who were involved with Prime Minister Zuo before were worried that they would also be involved, and they were all cautious. Some people went to Mr. Wang secretly, hoping to save their current position by donating their family property.Lord Wang will naturally not give accurate words, and of course he will not let these people go, but he will not speak now, so let these people be anxious first.If they didn't get an answer, they felt uneasy, like ants on a hot pot.

Because of the matter of the left prime minister in the capital, the vassal king who came to Beijing was completely ignored. The eldest son who was detained in the palace was very anxious. When the two sons arrived in the capital, the empress dowager sent someone to tell her that the eldest princess was worried. After that, she never heard from her two sons again.Thinking of the youngest son, the eldest princess, who was harmed by her, her heart ached, but she couldn't do anything, and she shed tears all day long.

How could the emperor have the mind to care about whether the vassal king is not the vassal king, the left and right also cut the vassal, if he didn't cut it directly, he had already demonstrated his benevolence.What the emperor is worried about now is whether the leftist party has been caught, especially those in the palace.The left prime minister stretched his hand too far. Could it be that he wants to rebel?If it weren't for the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice and the Metropolitan Procuratorate wanting to ask something more from Prime Minister Zuo, he would very much like to issue an order immediately and make a decision.
