starling is not a bird

Since Prince Yu Fuquan fainted last time, Emperor Kangxi spared his elder brother from traveling in the imperial military plane, and only let him take charge of Guangshan Treasury. He is also more at ease with the money coming in and out of the inner court.Before Kangxi, he took pity on the old and the poor, and set up a public treasury for the children of the Eight Banners. It was because "banner people borrowed money from others whenever they were in urgent need, so that the salary they received every year was not enough to compensate, and they became more and more embarrassing. Therefore, a special public treasury was set up. , to help the poor and the Eight Banners' deficiencies."

I never thought that there would be those shameless children who took the interest-bearing silver allocated by the public treasury and it was just expenses. If there is no mention of returning it, the treasury is already tight, and there is still a shortage of relief for disasters. Without this money, Even more embarrassing, the emperor had no choice but to set up Guangshan treasury to exempt those owed by the soldiers of the Eight Banners in the public treasury; if the public treasury of the garrison banners was in good condition, the original borrowed bank would be taken back, and the profit and interest would be used as capital to establish the treasury. Guangshan treasury; those who belong to officials, officials and businessmen who owe money, ordered to recover the establishment of Guangshan treasury.Now that the emperor let his own elder brother take care of this place, it might be that he didn't intend to shock those Eight Banners. His family was renting the fields and the shop was doing business, but he refused to pay back the money. Could it be that the emperor didn't eat?

Prince Yu Fuquan had just taken over the command of the Guangshan Treasury, and the first person to borrow money was His Highness the Crown Prince's nanny Ling Pu, who said that he came to pay the loan according to the "order" of the Prince, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was short of money. After delaying the renovation of the palace, the crown prince can't be allowed to sleep in the rain curtain, right?In the past, the pen was first misappropriated here, and then returned immediately after the internal affairs accounted for it.

Prince Yu is well aware that there are love abuses here, the inner court scooping up money is nothing more than rewards from inside and outside, filial piety from outside officials, and corruption from doing projects.The emperor let himself take charge of this Guangshan treasury just to keep the money, so that those noble relatives of the Eight Banners would not go to the empress dowager's place to cry poorly from time to time. The empress dowager is honest, and the public treasury is so empty .The emperor was not forced to do anything, so why set up this Guangshan library?If you want to come to the prime minister by yourself, you just want to save the silver for the knife's edge, otherwise who can't control the hundreds of thousands of silver?

He wanted to show his prestige, but Prince Yu Fuquan didn't want to confront his nephew, the future emperor, so he sent his naughty officials to receive him, and hid himself.

The crown prince recently got someone he likes, and it was the time when he was happy. The firstborn son is already two years old. He is white and fat, and he is very pleasing to look at. The first daughter died, only one year old.But Li Jiashi of the side Fujin was in a good mood, and the imperial physician just reported that she was pregnant again. Li Jiashi was his favorite, and all his sons and daughters came from her.Who knows that there will always be people who don't go his way to bother him.The nurse Ling Pu has always been the most useful person in front of him, and he is entrusted with all incoming and outgoing information, but today he came back after a bump in his nose at his Uncle Huang's, and it depends on the owner when beating a dog. The crown prince has always been so used to it He is the one who is strong in front of Huang Ama, how can he stand this kind of treatment?

He brought people to Guangshanku, intending to have a quarrel with his uncle, but in vain, Prince Yu knew that his nephew was of noble birth and arrogant, how could he bear such disobedience?The last time he went to the northwest, Prince Yu Fuquan already regretted his quarrel with the elder brother, how could he offend this elder brother now?In the name of patrolling the flag, no matter how far, even if the crown prince uncovered the Guangshan treasury, it is nothing more than their own money, and his own emperor, Ama, is guarding the Forbidden City, so why bother to confront him? .

Eldest brother sent those Raksha devils away, and he was very relieved. For some reason, he always felt that the innocent faces of the people of Raksha country were hiding conspiracy. They were all spying on the reality of the Qing Dynasty, which made him very unhappy, and he believed even more what his younger brother said: "If you are not of my race, your heart must be different."

These days, the elder brother feels more and more that time in the palace is not good. When the third child and the fourth child go out to pay homage to the sage Confucius, the crown prince’s eyes are fixed on him. If his younger brother hadn’t followed him all the way, he would have been almost caught by those Luos. Sha Guizi was deceived. If they really got some news and passed it back, the contract negotiations here were restarted, and the Qing Dynasty fell into a disadvantage. Wouldn't he be the sinner through the ages?Thinking of him makes his teeth itch.

As soon as he got back to the palace, his confidant servant came over and told him that the crown prince got stuck in Prince Yu Fuquan's place, guarded the gate of Guangshan Library, cursed for a long time, and whipped him several times. magistrate.Yinti snorted, his younger brother always took advantage of his status to attack indiscriminately, and it was nothing more than beating up servants in his palace on weekdays. Those officials are serious people, so they are easy to fight?Even his relatives were beaten, the Duke of Shuncheng would spit a few times when he saw Wuyoudian now!If he really sat in that position, it seemed that he had so many brothers, wouldn't they all be dead?

After finally sending away those wicked Raksha devils, Yinhu finally freed up to take care of his younger brother's shop, but within a month and a half, the newly renovated shop was erected in Zhengyangmen. This is the most prosperous area of ​​shops, with two or three miles to the left and right, all rich merchants and rich merchants, and they opened their shops.Opposite the Xiaojiu shop is the "Zhengyi Temple" (because it is dedicated to the ancestor of Zhengyi Xuantan, that is, Zhao Gongming), a silver house run by Shaoxing people in the sixth year of Kangxi. It is solid and reliable, and often does not charge interest.Those who have deposits for many years and have gone to withdraw the silver have never been touched.Nearby is the shop of "Kang Wanwan" in Pingyang Mansion, Shanxi Province, the property of Fan's family, the imperial merchant of the House of Internal Affairs.I can't help but feel that the family of Concubine Wen Xi really treats people with sincerity, and Yin De deserves the four words of respect, sincerity and simplicity.

Xiaojiu was just doing it for fun, but when she really saw the beautiful shopfront in front of her and the time-honored merchants on her left and right, she felt extremely proud and determined to make a name for herself in the business.The shopkeeper in the shop was invited from Shanxi by Yin De's kindness. He was nice and tactful. He had already seen the nobleman at the door, so he quickly dropped his job and went up to serve.Brothers waved their hands and let him go to work.

Xiao Jiu looked at the people coming and going next door, and her shop was deserted, so she couldn't help but pouted: "Mynah, look here is full of money shops, Lingzi shops, jewelry shops, pawn shops, incense shops, rice mill shops, steamer shops, etc. I heard that there are three to four hundred pharmacies, big and small. You don’t let grandpa buy ginseng antler here, no wonder it’s deserted.”

Yinhu looked at his younger brother's appearance of having suffered a great loss, smiled and touched his head: "Merchants and merchants are low-class stuff after all, you are the prince and elder brother, do you want to eat with this? You must know that our Qing Dynasty All of the business is run by people from around the mountain, and the Eight Banners in Beijing have their own food, grass and silver to rely on, who would be willing to carry out such a cheap business? The Kang family across from you is known as tens of millions! The old rice mills where they ate were all from Lu. These Lu people were hardworking and hardworking. They replaced them and gained influence after a long time. The Gaihuichang bank, leather goods, and dried fruit shops are all from Shanxi, while the silk, satin, grain, and restaurants are all from Shandong. "

Xiao Jiu twisted his mouth slightly, but his ears were still pointed. Yinhu pinched his younger brother's earlobe, and in exchange for a coquettish glare, he continued, "If you want to sell ginseng, you have to ask Fan Shiken next to him." No, he is a serious imperial businessman, Huang Ama rewarded him for selling ginseng, if you go to snatch it, you are not embarrassing our Huang Ama? It is obvious that he can't afford to support his son and wants to sell ginseng!"

"First of all, the silk and satin shop we saw was set up by Shandong people, and most of the so-called Xiang shops belonged to the Meng family. At first, Taichang in Qianmen was from Beijing, but it was because it was also a tribute to the inner court, otherwise it would not be able to compete with others. "

Xiao Jiu never knew that there are so many specialties in selling things, and she looked at herself suspiciously just now, isn't he fooling herself? "Brother, how do you know so much?" Yinhu continued to pinch his ear: "Who wants me to have a younger brother who wants to start a business but refuses to work hard? I don't go to check the information. Is it possible to watch my brother make money?" Being bullied for not having enough money? Hey, I’m a hard worker!” Xiao Jiu naturally knew that she had never thought about being in charge of the manager, since she has a grandfather and uncle and her own brother, why should he worry about it?It was only at this time that I realized that there was a lot of connections here, and I regretted my negligence.

He just refused to admit defeat: "Huang Ama is also true. Why did you entrust the ginseng business to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and supply it exclusively! Can I only sell some fur?"

Yinhu and the shopkeeper looked at each other across the hall and smiled, and dragged Xiaojiu to work behind him. There was already good tea for the work, and he gave them fine tea, "Jiudi, next time you talk to your brain, It’s not worthwhile for you to be Huang Ama? When our Eight Banners were still outside the customs, they were the eight major merchants. After entering the customs, Emperor Shizu hosted a banquet in the Forbidden City in person and summoned them in person to give them court clothes. It was their Fan family who took on the official job of "undertaking and picking and transporting military rations" the year before last, saving Huang Ama a lot of money. Yesterday Huang Ama also said that the treasury was empty and there was a serious shortage of copper catties in the country. I plan to allow merchants to go to Dongying to buy copper. The default list is all for their families. It’s useless if you are not convinced. Find a way to start your own shop first, and then think about going to Huang Ama to ask for some imperial errands. , are you afraid you won't have a chance?"

Xiao Jiu's eyes lit up when he heard what his brother said, but he still had a sullen face: "Brother, you said it easily, and it's not like you didn't miss it all the way. Shuangta Temple Li Jiaguan hat, Dongjiang Mixiang Dangjia shoes, Dashilan Songjia boots, Liu Cuijiaxiang from our academy, Liu Bitong hard-pointed pens. They have done everything they can, what else can I do!" Yin Huduan He picked up a cup of tea, blew it slowly, then looked at his younger brother with a smirk and said, "Xiao Jiu, you have flattered my elder brother, are you afraid that no one will teach you?"

Xiao Jiu hurriedly picked up the plate on the table, and held it high in front of Yinhu: "Brother, you just treat it as a brother, and let's do it once. I will give you half of the dividend at the end of the year."

Yinhu listened to his flowers, slowly let out a smile, picked a small piece, and stuffed it into his younger brother's mouth: "It turns out that you can spend money on your elder brother! Little heartless! Who cares about your money ah!"

Xiao Jiu was almost choked to death, and hurriedly took a cup to drink tea, but was burned again, and her face flushed from coughing, Yinhu felt sorry for her younger brother, patted him on the back with her hand, and gave him her own cup to drink, waiting for him After being quiet, he said: "I treat you as a brother and sister to think of you so caringly. It's good for you to send me money, really!"

Xiao Jiu waited until he could speak before he said: "Brother, you are really fussy. My brother loves money the most. I don't give it to ordinary people. I don't like it when my brother asks you to share it. I'm not happy. You want me to give it to you." how is everything!"

Yinhu glared at the younger brother, so angry that he wished to stuff him with another snack and choke him to death. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I'm tired today, so just trouble my younger brother to pinch his leg and beat his back."

Seeing her brother's awkward look, Xiao Jiu couldn't help laughing: "What about the back, that's all? My brother is still thinking about stealing some oil and kissing him!" Is your brother flirting with a girl? Little bastard!" As a result, Xiao Jiu looked like a dead pig who was willing to be beaten and punished to die laughingly, and opened his hand after a few casual slaps.

When I got back to the palace, I heard that His Highness the crown prince's eldest son had caught the wind and cold. I was afraid that it would be bad. The elder brother agreed, but he didn't show his face at all. He invited his younger brother to visit him, expressing his wish It shows brotherly care.Except for Empress Concubine De and Empress Rong, whose sons were absent, all concubines were able to express their concubine's concerns vigorously.

When the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother who were rushing back from Shandong received the news from the palace, the bad news was inevitable. The third elder brother regretfully told his younger brother that the toys he had prepared were useless, but it was a pity that he and his younger brother There are no heirs yet, otherwise it would be fine to donate it for your own use.
