[Red House] A beautiful girl welcomes the spring

The emperor was short of money, Jia Amnesty knew it, and Jia Yan knew it too, but they never expected that the emperor would come to their Jia's house again in a private visit to the white dragon fish suit in a micro-service when they were so busy closing the pen a year ago!

In the Rongxi Hall, which has been changed to the regulation of Marquis, the left is headed by Jia Mu, and the right is headed by Jia Amnesty. Jia's family, men, women, old and young, salute the emperor.

The emperor talked nonsense with Jiamu, and politely sent Jiamu back to Rongqing Hall to rest on the grounds that Jiamu was old.

Then Jia Zheng was also sent out. When only Mrs. Jia Shexing and Jia Yan were left in the Rongxi Hall, Jia Yan offered the secret recipe of glass and glass mirrors without waiting for the emperor to speak.

The emperor couldn't believe his eyes: such a precious thing as glass was fired with sand?

Although there are recipes about making mirrors with tinfoil and mercury, there are also methods for blowing glass, and there are contents about glass processing with emery, the emperor still couldn't believe his eyes.

He always thought that glass was made of precious minerals such as meteor sand, so the price remained high.But, use river sand?Ready-made broken crystals?real or fake?

For a moment, the emperor thought that there was something wrong with his eyes.

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, Jia Yan rolled his eyes and knew what the emperor was thinking, and said: "Long live must not have thought of it? I didn't think of it either. But don't worry, long live, this prescription is absolutely reliable. Maybe long live doesn't know yet Well, overseas, our porcelain, even the kind of rough porcelain that costs more than a dozen pennies, can still be sold for the price of gold. Also, overseas countries such as Qianxiang Kingdom, they say they are our vassal countries, every time People who come to pay tribute will cry poorly, but in reality? In their country, hundreds of catties of jadeite are pulled by bullock carts, and treasures such as sweet potatoes are also forbidden to be exported. Once found, they will be shot...”

When the emperor heard about it, his heart moved, and he said, "Is what you said true?"

Jia Yan said: "Isn't it true? Long live, have you forgotten that my brother has a concubine, and her mother's family is originally a maritime merchant in the south? The maritime merchants all know this! It's just that the adults in the court don't know that's all. Long live , In this recipe, you need to pay attention to charcoal, the best anthracite carbon, such as silver frost charcoal. However, compared with the price of glass today, these silver frost charcoals are nothing more than trivial. Long live If you don’t believe it, you can let the manufacturing office use broken crystal sand to try it first? It’s also written in the prescription, if the fire is not strong enough, it’s glass, and if it’s hot enough, it’s glass.”

Xuanhui Mansion is responsible for the supply of the inner court, and has gathered the most capable craftsmen in the country who make daily necessities. If there is any place in the world that is most likely to make glass, it is only the Manufacturing Office of Xuanhui Mansion.

The emperor said: "Alright, I will ask someone to try it later."

Jia Yan said with a smile: "If it succeeds, what reward will Long Live give me?"

The emperor frowned, thought for a while, and said, "A promotion for you?"

Jia Yan chuckled lightly and said, "I don't want it. My father just got promoted to noble, and I have already appointed Concubine Shu before I entered the palace. If I get promoted again, wouldn't it be putting our whole family on the fire?"

Hearing that Jia Yan and the emperor were no different, Jia Amnesty burst into a cold sweat.

But the emperor was right in front of him, so he couldn't persuade him, so he could only secretly worry down below, but he didn't even dare to wink at his daughter.

The emperor frowned and said, "Then what do you want?"

Jia Yan pointed to the prescription in the emperor's hand and said, "You are short of silver, and I am short of silver. In this way, I will not compete with you for the bonus of this glass mirror, but I want [-]% of the bonus of this glass." .”

Jia Amnesty softened his hands and feet at that time.

As for the emperor, he glared at Jia Yan and said, "What do you want so much money for?"

Jia Yan said: "Of course it is for the palace that is about to start construction. Who told you to tell me that my natal family also practiced the palace. Don't you know if our Jia family has money? If there is no other income, we are not Sister Lin’s dowry money can only be borrowed from the national treasury. And once borrowed, there is no big income, and it must not be repaid. I can’t bear it and I’m sorry to go My aunts and aunts can’t get over the hurdle in my heart. But if you ask the treasury to borrow money... you are looking for money, isn’t it just to relieve the victims and prepare for the famine in the coming year? If the treasury is borrowed again, what do you get? to do these things?"

The emperor said: "You don't need to borrow..."

Jia Yan said: "You don't need to pay interest on borrowing money from the treasury. If you borrow it from outside, it's usury. You can't pay it back if you sell our whole family. Moreover, I have already booked a high position before entering the palace. How many people are staring at me?" What about our family. If something goes wrong, it’s a small thing to lose my face, but it’s a big thing to ruin yours. Say it, don’t you?”

Seeing that the emperor didn't speak, Jia Yan stepped up: "Speaking of which, I also grew up listening to your affairs. If I don't talk about anything else, I just talk about the concubine's family visit. If others don't know, I will not You know? You see more and more refugees coming to Beijing from outside, and the imperial court has no money to pay, and you are afraid that these refugees will have nowhere to go and cause trouble, so you think of letting the concubines' natal families The purpose of building the Xingqin Villa is to enable these refugees to find a livelihood as soon as possible. I don’t know how much you love the people? If you were not pushed to the extreme, would you bet on your reputation and popular support? It’s just me who can’t wait. Every girl in the world knows that such a thing, if you are not careful, someone will hold you back, and give you a reputation of extravagance, absurdity, and disregard for the lives of the people. You have no place to complain! Since you don’t even care about this Come on, I can see your difficulties. I have no other skills, so I will help you find more money and food for you. However, if you want the horse to run, you must not feed the horse. Tell me, am I right?"

The emperor frowned, staring hard at Jia Yan.

Jia Yan's words gave him more confidence in this secret recipe, but he really needed the money too much. The capital and manpower were all paid by Xuanhui Mansion. As a result, Jia Yan had to take [-]% of the profit for every mouthful, even if it was just glass. The profit is too much in his opinion.

The emperor said: "No, at most [-]%!"

Jia Yan said: "Fifteen percent!"

"No! Only [-]%!"

Jia Yan said: "Okay, okay, I will give you another cement recipe, free of charge. However, I still want [-]% of the profit of the glass!"

The emperor frowned: "This cement is..."

Jia Yan took out another fold from his sleeve: "Look for yourself."

Indigenous cement, although ordinary things such as iron slag, charcoal, and clay limestone are used, can also be used to imitate Taihu stone, but its real use is in strategy, in the construction of border fortresses!

Although this booklet only briefly listed some uses, the emperor already knew the military significance of this prescription.

Perhaps the hardness of this indigenous cement is not as strong as that of glutinous rice as the main raw material, but it is cheaper and can be supplied on a large scale. What needs to be paid attention to is, as mentioned in this booklet, sand lung.

Of course, if this is used well, it can also become an important means for the country to keep cement secret.

After reading these two prescriptions, the emperor took a deep breath.

Well, he admits it.

God knows how many good things this little girl still has!For the sake of long-term consideration, I still followed this girl first.

The emperor carefully put these two copies into his sleeves, and said: "You are the first person who dares to bargain with me!"

And it's a woman!

She is still his concubine in name!

The emperor was extremely depressed, and after being depressed, he was also a little fresh.

It is true that when he was young, he also liked Lin Daiyu's one because it was interesting.But as he got older and busier, he began to like women like Jia Yan who are bright, bright, and straightforward.

After all, he is the emperor, even before he ascended the throne, he was also the prince who was in charge of official duties, where would he have the time to play guessing games with women?

His current request to the concubines is very simple, either they can help him, or they can make him relax, if they can't do both, just leave.

He is busy.

As for Xue Baochai, he didn't know who Xue Baochai was before, even if he knew, he didn't dare to accept his advice.

Such a woman, such a natal family, will only have a lot of desires, just like Jia Yuanchun, so the more stubborn Jia Yuanchun is, the more the emperor fears her.

Jia Yan smiled and said: "What's the way? Who told me that I will spend my whole life with you in the future. What's the fun in hiding and getting along with a mask? Anyway, you have already made your will, and now you want to return it It's too late."

In fact, as early as when Jia Yan had just won the first-class county monarch to enter the palace and kowtow to him and talked to him, the emperor had vaguely known the temper and character of this little girl.

The emperor turned cold on purpose, and said, "Don't you know that the first requirement of a concubine is virtuousness?"

Jia Yan said nonchalantly: "Come on! The one who needs virtuousness in your harem is the empress, and the one who is capable can only be the empress. What does it have to do with me? I just need to be beautiful and keep my heart." .”

Well, this reason is also very good.

The last word.

The emperor said: "Hey~! I, I say, you are playing your temper!"

Jia Yan stretched her neck, leaned over, and said to the emperor:

"I'm not only petty, I'm also jealous and jealous! Let me tell you first, you are not allowed to spoil other women in my house. That is my house, my bed, and I want to sleep at night! You are here I don’t care about favoring those concubines in the side hall, but it’s not allowed in my house! Also, I won’t give you the maids around me! If you let those maids go, I will be the one who will be ashamed. Moreover, I will never introduce my sisters and cousins ​​to you. I can give up everything in this world, but only my husband and children, I can't give up!"
