Xue Jiazi

Chapter 33 Umbrella 4

It was almost noon at this time, and the emperor in the Daming Palace was enjoying a rare rest, lying on his side on a soft couch, holding a parasol in his hand, so that the stewards of the House of Internal Affairs could see that only I'm afraid they will be surprised, they didn't report this thing, but the emperor already has it?

Who offered this, in fact, you can guess without asking, who else could it be except the internal phase!To be an eunuch in the palace, especially as the inner minister, to become the No.1 person next to the emperor, is impossible without some vision, let alone ability, but the most important thing is to be loyal. The loyalty that dared to lie, the very first time Xue Xun delivered the item to Neixiang's house, the Neixiang had already confirmed that it was something that would interest the emperor. Besides, if someone sent something to his home, how could he? Dare to accept it casually?Is that a paranoia that is purely innocent to tease the emperor!He didn't have the guts, so he told the emperor almost immediately whoever gave him something, and the emperor was satisfied with his knowledge and didn't care about these things.

For Neixiang, he can get the emperor's satisfaction and benefit at the same time, he thinks such a thing is the most cost-effective.This time is no exception, the only thing that interests him is that he has never seen this thing, and most of the emperors have never seen what he has never seen before. Under such circumstances, it can bring something new to the emperor. It made him win the emperor's heart even more, so early the next morning, he delivered it directly to the emperor.

As an old man in the palace, he is very clear that there is only one reason why Xue Xun can send it to him, and that is that this thing probably wants to be one of the list of people who want to make progress. , he reported to the emperor immediately, and looked forward to what kind of boutique this would be delivered with a very curious tone.

Regardless of whether the officials or eunuchs are greedy, most of them are very greedy, but they also have their own unspoken rules, that is, they have to do things after receiving benefits, especially if they do not affect their own interests. It is also a kind of credit to help out, otherwise they will have no extra money to get in the future, right!

In fact, the emperor knew some of the tricks here, but what he wanted was a kind of control and balance, and he didn't care much about the little things in these people's minds. Besides, how much noise could an imperial merchant make?What he is looking forward to more now is whether the things that the Xue family can produce can really satisfy him.

Facts have proved that the emperor was also taken aback sometimes. Although he was still expressionless, but he was familiar with his temperament and had been with him for decades. It's so dark, the emperor may not know the details, but there is something tricky in it, he definitely knows it, anyway, this palace has never seen anything called cheap goods, but when he saw that the steward of Liugong sent it up to 2000 taels When he made the quotation, he was also a little unbelievable. When did these people know what it means to stop?This is impossible!It's not those officials, so there is a possibility that the price of this thing will be low when it is delivered.

Seeing this price, the emperor felt a little uncomfortable, and unconsciously thought, could it be that the price is too high for something else in his house?Fortunately, there is still the internal phase, he doesn't want to ruin other people's jobs, and finally make himself ashamed, and finally fold himself in, so he intentionally or unintentionally talked about what the manager of purchasing in Liugong said. This item was delivered for the first time, and I didn’t know if the palace would accept it, so I didn’t dare to quote a price, so I directly gave a cost price, and also mentioned that the purchase of this item from the Sixth Palace is not expected to be large, so the emperor will let it Let go of some doubts a little.

"Cost, so to speak, the Xue family is quite honest. Also, how much this thing can be used in a year, this box can be counted as a year's worth."

The emperor didn't know anything, at least he always knew that this thing wouldn't be needed in winter. Seeing that Xue Jiajin took one offered to him, he was very satisfied with the Xue family's taste, and glanced at the other umbrellas. At first glance, the interior looks very clever, and immediately began to open them one by one for the emperor to see.

"Hey, Lord Saint, look at this, this plum blossom is really amazing. Oh, this cat and butterfly is also beautiful, as if it is real, and this eyeball is still an opal! Isn't it alive! Ah, this , Songhe Yannian, it’s really a good meaning, and this, whoops, this is a goshawk, which is used by women..."

The inner minister Balabala picked it up one by one, and said one by one, his face blushed with excitement, and when he saw the goshawk, he even took out the umbrella for the tiger to go down the mountain, and couldn't help laughing.

"Master, isn't this intended to be rewarded by the master? But who is this tiger, this goshawk going to? Could it be for those old generals? Hey, those five big and three rough, if they get such a thing, how can they go out? , that doesn't fit well!"

When he said this, the emperor seemed to see such a scene in front of his eyes. The old man with white beard and hair was wielding a big knife in one hand and holding such a gentle parasol in the other. He couldn't help but also laughed. I became interested for a while, couldn't help but walked off the soft couch, went to the side of the box, reached out and took a few of them for a closer look, and then said to Neixiang with a mischievous smile:

"Looking at this pattern, it's appropriate. In this way, this tiger is given to Feng Tang. This old guy is not too old. I heard that he often hunts and practice martial arts. Well, this goshawk is given to Sang Qing. Didn't that guy raise it?" An eagle, this is just right, and this Songhe Yannian..."

The emperor's eyes narrowed, his eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth twitched:

"For Mr. Qi, he is not young, it just so happens that this meaning is good."

This is because he thinks that he is too old to occupy the head and assistant of the cabinet!Is this a reward, or a scolding for being old?Neixiang understood instantly, his heart sank, he respectfully accepted the order, and before he could say anything else, he heard the emperor speak again.

"Except for me and the empress, the others are only given to each of the four concubines. You can pick and choose. There are also princes and princesses. They are rewards for the Dragon Boat Festival. You keep the rest first. have a look."

After speaking, the emperor sat back at the back of the desk and continued to read the booklets. Neixiang hurriedly asked people to move the things to the back, and then turned his head to show off to the little eunuch who was following him.The emperor has started rewarding people, so this thing is naturally accepted, so he will naturally notify those in charge of the purchase, and inform the Xue family. Looking at the momentum this year, the emperor is still satisfied with the new gadgets. The price seems appropriate. According to my inner thoughts, I guess this year's Dragon Boat Festival, parasols will take up a lot of money. Should I make more money later?Let's talk about it again, let those stewards watch, if it's [-]% before the festival, it must be more.Other things are beyond his old eunuch's control.

Don't talk about what the palace thinks, or how the women in the harem like it, just say Xue Xun, since he is waiting for the news, he is naturally planning to use this time to make a living in his own shop in the capital. By the way, I also wanted to open an umbrella shop here, and make a name for my own umbrella. I don’t think it’s only been a day, and not only did the palace give the news immediately, but also accepted it all. He prepared a hundred more.Even in those shops belonging to the Xue family in the capital, many managers came to inquire about the parasols, and most of them wanted to buy women's styles. Xue Xun was surprised and delighted for a while.

To my surprise, my son was right. For arty things, people in the capital are more popular than those in Jinling, especially women, scholars, and dudes. The money of these three types of people is really easy to deceive.The joy is, with just such a list, the list of two hundred umbrellas entering the palace, he can directly earn 2 taels!Still went to the pure profit of those little money!There was even a person in charge who said that his price was too fair, which made it difficult for them to get stuck!God, this is the profit from his makeup list in previous years!This umbrella is so valuable!

Excited, Xue Xun immediately sent all the exquisite and high-end umbrellas that he brought with the ship into the palace, exactly two hundred umbrellas, no more, no less, and the rest were other regulations and high-grade umbrellas. The antiques were also placed directly at the fastest speed, and the jewelry store began to sell them on behalf of others.Earning money also needs to be in the limelight. Obviously, there has been such a trend of parasols from those families and palaces that he gave gifts to. In this scorching summer, the Xue family is afraid to rely on this umbrella. There are many benefits to be gained!
