"I haven't finished, you just said so much in a hurry. In my mind, my younger sister is the best, but it would be better if my younger sister can learn a little bit from your cousin Xue." Yixuan looked at Shi Jing and smiled. road.

"Can I learn from her? How tiring it is to learn from her." Shijing said indifferently, and at the same time took a big sip of black tea, "It's still a good combination. I really don't know why you like drinking tea so much. Even if It’s bitter before it’s sweet, it’s also bitter. I’m going to live a life like my mother’s or my cousin Lin’s, and I don’t want to work hard every day.”

It may be a matter of inertia, Jia Min still married Lin Ruhai, and Lin Ruhai finally managed the Yanzheng.But this time their fate was much better. Jia Min broadened her horizons and was not in a hurry to eat all kinds of birth formulas.In addition, when he was at home, the old man was partial to her, and gave Jia Min the prescription that Yihe found out from the bookcase.Jia Min's body is much better than that of ordinary military officers' girls, so she is not in a hurry at all.If there is a problem, no matter how you look at it, it is Lin Ruhai's problem. It is best to use food supplements to take care of her. Sure enough, she became pregnant within a few years of marriage.

Although Lin Ruhai is in charge of the Jiangnan salt administration, the tax collected by the salt administration is not as much as that collected by the customs.The eldest prince ran to that land within a few years after laying down that land. By the time Lin Ruhai took office as the Jiangnan Salt Administration, the eldest prince had already recruited many people in the country to govern the land in a good manner. Looks good.

Seeing the good start made by the eldest prince, the capable and thoughtful princes followed suit one after another.Either make war money to pave the way for yourself in the future, or get some merchant ships to go to sea, or try hard to the emperor, hoping to get the emperor's support.

In this way, the court struggle is not as obvious as before.The salt administration in Jiangnan was not irreplaceable, but it reduced Lin Ruhai's pressure.Coupled with the fact that Jia Min's son was brought up healthy, Lin Ruhai's fighting heart became active.

"Yes, yes, yes, our Shijing sees it the most thoroughly. At that time, our Shijing will definitely marry a wishful husband like Lin's cousin, who will sing in harmony." Yixuan teased.

"Second brother." Shi Jing blushed, lowered her head, and wrung her hands.

But Shi Jing is not a very well-behaved person after all, and soon her flushed cheeks returned to their original appearance, and Shi Jing and Yixuan started chatting casually.

Seeing that it was about to start, Shi Jing was a bit slow in replying.Yixuan looked at it with a smile in his eyes. The younger sister usually listens to some news from the servants at home with her mother. Could it be that she comes to a restaurant outside to listen to overseas news.

"Excuse me, can I sit here?" A rich man who looked very sunny and trustworthy asked.

Yixuan took a careful look, but didn't have any impression, it seems that he just came to the capital.The quality of the clothes is good, and the patterns and styles are from Jiangnan.Although the accessories looked the same as those of the rich kids, Yixuan still found a few small accessories, which were produced overseas and were rare.It seems that this family is either engaged in maritime trade, or there are senior officials who have fought overseas, but they don't know what their background is.

Yixuan glanced at his little sister, frowning slightly.Just about to say something, Shi Jing said: "No problem, you can sit on the other side of my brother!"

"Thank you!" The man thanked him and sat down. "Xiaoer, bring me another pot of Dahongpao and some snacks." After speaking, he turned to look at Yixuan and the others and said, "Thanks to the two brothers, I just came to Beijing. I heard that Jin Yutang said that some overseas customs and deeds are true. It's very good, so I came here just because of the name. I didn't expect so many people when I came, and there will be no good seats by then, so I will disturb you two."

Before it even started, a few people had a shallow conversation.I learned that the man's family is in the nautical business, and they are doing well.The man introduced himself as Jiang Honghan. The name comes from Tang Hanyu's "Lantian County Chengting Wall Records": "Boling Cui Sili cultivates academic achievements to store his own, and Honghan plays the mean, day by day to be unrestrained." This name was chosen. It was the family who hoped that he would be knowledgeable and get a good reputation, but he was not very interested in articles, but in the family business.

More than ten years ago, the country went out to fight and the development of commerce.After a game in all aspects, as long as you have not become a businessman, you can take the exam.It's just that candidates from merchants can't be officials above the fifth rank, and they are very excluded among the nobles, scholarly families, and poor children.

When Shijing learned that he had been to many places overseas, a lot of questions immediately popped up in her mind and wanted to ask him.But he didn't know what to ask, so he stayed there.

Jiang Honghan has been away for so many years, and he can tell what Shijing is thinking at a glance.Judging by their demeanor and clothes, they know that their backgrounds are not bad. They have many friends and many paths. Jiang Honghan took the initiative and casually guided Shijing to ask what she wanted to ask slowly.

"I want to ask that black man really wipes with his hands..." Shi Jing was a little bold at first, but she was educated as a lady, so she couldn't ask this question, but she really wanted to know.

Seeing Shijing hesitate to speak, Jiang Honghan smiled calmly. "If that's what you're asking, I can definitely answer 'yes' to you. It's just that he uses his left hand and eats with his right hand."

Then Jiang Honghan introduced that the fish in Africa can be caught out of the mud, and the tools they use to catch fish are very primitive. They will beat a plant with a wooden stick, and then catch fish.It is said that those black people said that they beat out the juice of the plants, and the juice has the effect of paralyzing the fish.

Jiang Honghan described those overseas customs vividly, which made Shijing and the others mesmerized.At first, Shijing and the others were listening at the same table, and gradually the nearby tables also became quiet.It wasn't until the beginning of Jin Yutang's lecture that he stopped here.

After listening to the storyteller, Shi Jing talked with Jiang Honghan about overseas customs and customs.Seeing that the weather was getting late, Shi Jing ended the conversation with some unfinished business.

Yixuan and Shijing sat in the carriage, and Yixuan adjusted his sitting posture to find a comfortable one: "I'm having a good time talking today, and I don't even go shopping that I liked before."

Shijing was still immersed in overseas affairs. When she heard her brother say this, she immediately returned: "Of course, it was wonderful to hear what people said before, but they listened to what others said. It's not like Mr. Jiang experienced it himself. Yes. I really want to go and see for myself, to see those customs and scenery." Shi Jing said with a look of yearning.

"Don't worry, when the time comes, we will find a good husband for you. Let you have the opportunity to travel around the country like your cousin Lin. To appreciate different scenery and taste different delicacies." Yixuan looked at with a smile Shi Jing said in a loving tone.
