The son crosses every night

You Qianqu is only willing to make a profit from the fabric business. Tanghua discussed it with him earlier, but now he regrets it, and he feels very embarrassed.

He quietly asked Ruan Shijie for advice, and Ruan Shijie appreciated You Qianqu's move.

Tang Hua glanced at him and said worriedly: "Sir, do you also think he should take [-]%?"

Ruan Shijie followed him to the tea table to drink tea. Hearing this, he raised his head and asked, "How much do you think you should give him?"

Tang Hua said earnestly: "It was said earlier that [-]% of success is [-]%. A gentleman promises a thousand gold, how can he break his promise in a short time?"

Ruan Shijie: "Your statement is also correct."

Tang Hua originally thought that her husband disagreed, and she had saved up a lot of words to persuade him, but she didn't expect him to say that, so she was stunned immediately.

Ruan Shijie handed him a cup of tea, "Doing business is different from doing test papers, there is no optimal solution, as long as you think it suits you."

"Is that so?" Tang Hua's forehead was full of confusion, and he said in a low voice, "Shouldn't you be seeking to make money in business?"

"It's not bad in the long run, but businessmen like us don't seek to get the maximum benefit from every deal." Ruan Shijie said: "You are not short of money now, and you and You Qianqu are good friends. , He helped you a lot, even if nothing else, just relying on this, you can justify the profit."

Tang Hua agreed with her whole face, and nodded vigorously, "Sir, that's exactly what I think!"

Ruan Shijie smiled, and said: "I guess your friend thinks the same way. Just because you are good friends, he is even more unwilling to take advantage of you. When we talked about this business before, your elder brother hasn't come back yet, and the sales mainly depend on Youjia Over there, it is right to divide him [-]%, and now you are out of the shop and looking for ways to expand sales, it is an advantage for him to divide it into [-]%."

Tang Hua said without hesitation: "If he is willing, I would rather he take advantage of me."

Ruan Shijie warmed his voice: "That's not the way to say it. You don't worry about being few but uneven. Your business is not limited to the two of you. You each have a big family behind each of you. It's okay to say that the business is small now. If one day, your fabric business In one fell swoop, it will become the largest fabric store in the imperial capital and even in the whole country?"

Tang Hua hesitated, "Is it impossible?"

"What's impossible?" Ruan Shijie raised his eyes and asked him, "Can you imagine that you would come here two years ago? Everything is changing. Xiangyunsha does have advantages. Not only that, you may also dye Make better fabrics, after all, your technology is at least 1000 years ahead of your time, if you are willing, I can guarantee that you will become the most successful businessman in your place."

Tang Hua thought for a while, then shook his head, "The tree attracts the wind, I never thought of making the business so big."

Ruan Shijie warmed his voice, "I'm just giving you an example. In my opinion, your friend's idea is very wise. It's better for you to agree than disagree. If you feel bad in your heart, you can make it up to him in the future, whether it's a gift or another He is a good choice for doing business.”

After hearing this, Tang Hua also thought about it, "Thank you sir, I will sign another contract with him tomorrow."

If there is no class today, Tang Hua still has to study hard.

When he was studying in the Hanhai Room, he couldn't sit still and often slipped out with his classmates to finish. After coming here, he developed the habit of concentrating, and he could read a book for a long time.

That night, he not only read the reading list specified by Chen Sui, but also read the introduction about the gay community.

Ruan Shijie asked him when he said goodbye: "How is it? Did you gain anything?"

Tang Hua nodded, and said honestly: "Yes, thank you sir."

"Still like men?"

Tang Hua's face was covered with a thin layer of red, he responded indiscriminately, and hurriedly said: "Sir, it's getting late, I'll go back first, good night."

Seeing that he looked like a rabbit with its tail on fire, Ruan Shijie smiled, "Good night."

When Tang Hua went back, his heart was still beating extremely fast. He picked up the pot of residual tea left on the table and drank two cups before the heat on his face dropped a bit.

After washing up on the second day, Tang Hua sent He Hua to send a message to Youjia, and asked, "Is my eldest brother here?"

He Zi hurriedly stepped forward to report, "My son has entered the palace."

"Huh? Why did you enter the palace at this time?"

This is not something that He Zi can inquire about. He shook his head to express his ignorance, but Yanhua didn't make things difficult for him, and planned to wait for his brother to come back to ask.

Gu Tangyu stayed in the palace for a while and didn't come back until noon.

Tang Hua waited for the news, and finally finished his lunch. He Zi hurried in with a look of joy on his face, "Master."

"But big brother is back?"

He Zi shook his head, "There is no news from Shizi yet, but Gu Zhun sent someone to send Liuli, who is waiting outside, young master, do you want to summon him?"

It has been more than a month since Tanghua returned to the imperial capital, and even though he gave Gu Zhun the recipe for making colored glaze before leaving the village, it is not easy to make good colored glaze just based on the recipe.

Tang Hua didn't expect that after only a month, he really burned it out, and immediately said pleasantly: "Quickly pass it on!"

He Zi rushed out, and brought a strong young man in after a while.

The person who came was also an apprentice from the porcelain kiln, his name was Ge Jing.

Ge Jing was small and thin when she came to the village, but before she knew it, she had grown into a vigorous young man.

After he came in, he kowtowed to Tanghua, and Tanghua asked, "Are you here alone?"

Ge Jing said: "Young master, the village is short of manpower, so Gu Guanshi sent a villain to come."

"Is Liuli here? Bring it up and have a look."

Ge Jing hurriedly took down the box from her back, and He Hua handed it over to her.

He came on horseback, fearing that Liuli would fall on the road, he wrapped it in coarse cloth, then wrapped it in straw layer by layer, and finally put it into a box filled with chaff.

He Hua hurriedly cleaned out the chaff, unwrapped the straw and coarse cloth, and presented the glass.

This hard-won glass is mottled in honey color, with air bubbles in it, and it looks opaque, which is far from the crystal clear glass I saw at Mr.

Tanghua held the piece of colored glaze through the coarse cloth, and after looking it over and over again, he felt a little disappointed, but it didn't show on his face.

He looked at Ge Jing who was waiting restlessly and bowed his head, and said in a gentle voice, "You guys have done a great job. After you go back, tell Gu Zhun that each of your colored glaze burners will get an extra month or two of silver this month, and Gu Zhun will get an extra five months. two."

Ge Jing couldn't help but kowtowed, "Thank you, my lord!"

Tang Hua's expression became more gentle, "The colored glaze has to be fired again. When the colored glaze is as clear as crystal, I will reward you."

Ge Jing was full of confidence, "Yes!"

Tanghua asked He Hua to take people down to rest, and wrote to Gu Zhun with a pen, telling him to adjust the formula and test it a few more times to see if he could burn out transparent colored glaze without bubbles, and allocated 300 taels more for him. He is experimenting.

Tanghua is not here, so He Rui and Gu Zhun are the leaders in Biezhuang.

Gu Zhun is not very literate at the moment, and Tanghua is fine when he is around, but it is a bit troublesome to write to him when he is away, and he can't write anything confidential, for fear that it will be leaked when someone reads the letter.

Tanghua thought in his heart, Biezhuang also had to hire a gentleman to teach the servants how to read and count.

Tang Hua was in a very happy mood when the results came out on the other side of the glass. He stared at the glass in his hand and suddenly remembered something. He called He Hua and gave some instructions.

Gu Tangyu didn't come back until it was getting late.

Tanghua sent people to visit his yard several times a day, and went out to drink tea with You Qianqu in the afternoon, and the two parties signed a contract. Who knew that when he came back, his elder brother hadn't come back yet, so he was called a anxious.

As soon as Gu Tangyu came back, Tanghua anxiously brought people to his yard.

Gu Tangyu had just changed his clothes, when he saw his younger brother in a hurry, he scolded, "Why is there no stability at all?"

After being scolded by him, Tang Hua's heart tightened, and he hurriedly suppressed his expression, and greeted honestly, "Brother."

"Sit down, is it time for dinner?"

"not yet."

Gu Tangyu said: "For use in our yard, let the kitchen add a flavored wine-stuffed duck and a flavored three-cup chicken."

These are all the dishes that Tanghua loves to eat, and his eyes lit up again.

The servants took orders and hurried away, and brought back a few food boxes after a while.

Tang Hua sat down to eat with his brother.

Gu Tangyu said: "Your fragrant cloud gauze, I have presented it to Uncle Huang today, I think Uncle Huang will wear it when the weather is hot in two days."

"Really?" Tang Hua didn't hold back his voice a little bit. After being swept away by his brother's warning eyes, Fang reluctantly suppressed the surprise and said, "In this case, I will hurry up and get the fabric out."

"Talk to Gu Ende, let him help you if you have any doubts."

"I know, thank you, brother!"

A faint smile flashed in Gu Tangyu's eyes.

Tang Hua felt more and more happy when eating next time. Originally, there were his favorite dishes on the table. Once his appetite started to whet his appetite, he ate an extra bowl of rice than usual.

Gu Tangyu originally told him about going to the frontier, but when he saw the expression on his face, he sensed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Hua hurriedly shook his head, "No problem."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, a little hiccup came out.

Tanghua wanted to cover his mouth before it was too late, Gu Tangyu saw him so angry and funny, "I told you to be greedy, will you hold on this time?"

Tang Hua refused to admit it, "I, I just swallowed a few more breaths."

Gu Tangyu was too lazy to listen to his excuses, so he turned his head and asked his servant to fry a bowl of Xiaoshi tea and come in.

Tang Hua was afraid of drinking bitter medicine since he was a child, and when he saw the pitch-black tea, his face almost collapsed, "Brother."

"It's useless to shout." Gu Tangyu ignored his defense, nodded and asked: "Are you drinking by yourself or waiting for someone to pour it?"

He's not a child, how could Tang Hua do such a thing as cheating and not drinking the medicinal soup?He finished the Xiaoshi tea with a bitter face, and picked up two pieces of tangerine peel to suppress the bitterness.

Now there is food and water in the stomach again, and I am fuller.

Tang Hua bid farewell to his elder brother. Before leaving the house, he suddenly remembered and asked, "Brother, have you made a plan to return to the frontier on April [-]th?"

Gu Tangyu nodded, "On that day, if I stay any longer, my bones should be stiff. Do you have anything else to do?"

"It's nothing, just a gift for you, and you will know when the time comes."

Gu Tangyu knew that he could often get some magical skills in his dreams, so he was really curious for a while, but he was mysterious and refused to say more.

It was Tang Hua's first time to take care of the business, he was the son of the prince's mansion, he couldn't go off in person, so he had to ask Gu Ende to send someone to run errands with He Hua.

You Qianqu also sent someone over there.

The shop that Gu Tangyu gave was already tidy, so they don't need to clean it up after they take over, they just need to clean it up and replace it with new ones.

Tang Hua followed Ruan Shijie to read so many books, and his aesthetic concept was very advanced.

Other fabric shops put the counter at the door, set up shelves around them, put the fabrics in rolls, and then ask the attentive staff to greet them.

Tang Hua is not the case. The counter of his shop is against the wall, and the floor is covered with a wooden floor. hats etc.

The most striking thing is that he dug out a window on the two side walls and decorated it with a wooden frame to bring in the light.

There are tables and chairs in the shop, and on the table are small vases with matching flowers and plants.

The most amazing thing is that this vase is as red as blood and moist as jade, small and exquisite, and gorgeous.

Such a peculiar shop has never appeared in the imperial capital. After Tanghua made it like this, many guests with poor family backgrounds smelled the faint incense coming out of it, and they dared not come to the shop, but only looked at it from a distance.

Tang Hua was not in a hurry, and told the store not to go out to solicit customers. Whether customers can come in or not depends on fate.

He put a lot of thought into this shop, and the shopkeeper was Lin shopkeeper recommended by Youjia. This shopkeeper had also opened a fabric shop before, and the owner's family went south. Find something to do.

The shopkeeper of You Qianqu's family knew the reputation of shopkeeper Lin, so after reporting it, You Qianqu asked Tang Hua for his opinion, but Tang Hua was worried that he couldn't find anyone, so seeing that shopkeeper Lin was still honest and honest, he decided to use him.

The fabric shop of Tanghua opened really unusually, and soon there were customers coming to the door, even if they didn't buy it, it would be considered knowledgeable to take a look at it.

Their reputation spread from ten to ten, and in just a few days, there was a faint tendency to be ranked in the imperial capital.

Gu Tangyu was amazed when he found out, "I didn't see it, but my younger brother still has this ability."

Tang Hua said earnestly: "Scholar will look at you with admiration in three days. I have learned so many things, so I am different from before."

Gu Tangyu patted him on the shoulder, "I hope you will be successful."

Tang Hua still remembered En Kao in autumn, and when he heard this, his heart tightened, and he became a little nervous for no reason.

Seeing that Gu Tangyu was about to set off for the frontier, this day Tanghua carried a box and hurried to his courtyard mysteriously.

Gu Tanghan happened to be there too, and when he saw Tanghua, he snorted coldly, "What are you doing here?"

Gu Tangyu stopped majestically, "Brother Han!"

Unconvinced, Gu Tanghan glared at Tanghua again, and stopped talking.

Gu Tangyu knew that the two of them had been at odds for a long time, and he had no intention of reconciling with them at this time. Seeing that Tanghua was uncomfortable, Gu Tangyu said to Gu Tanghan: "Mr. stop."

When Tanghua heard Mr. Liyuan's name, he looked at Gu Tanghan in surprise.

Although Mr. Yuan was born as a counselor, it is said that his skills are also very good. Young people who aspire to join the army are all proud to worship under him, but Gu Tanghan has such an ambition.

Gu Tanghan achieved his goal, and when he heard his elder brother's cryptic intention to see off the guests, he hurriedly saluted and said goodbye.

Tang Hua has been holding on to the box tightly, and when he saw him coming, he made way to the side, fearing that he would repeat his old tricks and bump into people for no reason.

Seeing his vigilant look, Gu Tanghan smiled disdainfully and left with the servant.

Gu Tangyu waved and signaled him to come over and sit down, "Can you find me?"

Tang Hua carefully placed the box on the table, and pushed towards Gu Tangyu, "Brother, didn't you say that I have something for you earlier? Open it and see if you like it."

Gu Tangyu opened the box, and there was a leather-covered... long iron barrel inside. He stretched out his hand and weighed it, only to find that it was indeed an iron barrel, with the iron sheet inside, and it was very heavy in his hand.

There are some patterns drawn with paint on the outer scalp, which looks very delicate.

Gu Tangyu was a little surprised, but couldn't guess what it was.

Tanghua's face was full of expectation, and he stared at him, "Brother, pick it up and have a look."

"Ok?"

"Focus on the narrow end and see what you can see."

Gu Tangyu raised the tube in his hand and looked in with his eyes open. He originally thought he would see pictures, etc., but he didn't expect that there was nothing in the tube except crystals embedded in it. He squinted and saw the wall a few steps away. It seemed to be pulled in front of him at once.

"It's interesting." Gu Tangyu said softly, then raised it up and looked out at the garden.

The scenery in the garden suddenly became very close, and the veins of the leaves on the trees could be clearly seen.

Gu Tangyu put down the long tube in his hand, and tapped his knees with his fingers.

Tang Hua explained: "This thing is called a telescope, which is helpful for scouting the enemy's situation in the distance."

"You also got this in a dream?"

Tang Hua nodded embarrassedly, "Well, it should have been binoculars, but I didn't have time to get so many crystal chips."

"What do binoculars look like?"

Tang Hua had been prepared for a long time and took out a blueprint with detailed illustrations of the telescope.

Gu Tangyu knew it was a good thing at a glance. After solemnly taking the blueprint, he carefully wrote down the content on it, and said: "This is a very important matter. You must not show the blueprint to the second person."

Tang Hua nodded, "I asked the master of the jewelry shop to grind the lens, and the tube was made by another master, so it should not be spread, but this thing is not difficult, as long as someone takes it apart and takes a look, they can know what's going on inside. "

Gu Tangyu: "I didn't expect this thing to be able to cover it all the time. It will be a period of time if it can be covered for a while."

Tang Hua: "Brother, I made this telescope out of crystal. If you don't have a lot of money, you can also make it out of transparent glass."

Gu Tangyu asked: "I saw that you started to burn glass earlier, but you want to make this telescope?"

"No, I want to make some mirrors. If it is successful, colored glaze will be of great use. I didn't think of using this telescope."

Gu Tangyu: "Are you sure about making colored glaze?"

"Yes." Tang Hua didn't hide it from him, "I got the prescription from a dream, and I just need to experiment a few more times to make colored glaze."

Gu Tangyu tapped his knee again, he raised his eyes to look at Tanghua.

Tang Hua was disturbed by his look, and asked cautiously: "Brother, what's the matter?"

"I thought, aren't you rich in money? How about a partnership with your elder brother?"

"Really?" Tang Hua's eyes lit up, "I wish for it!"

Gu Tangyu smiled, "You don't listen to how I want to partner?"

Tang Hua: "As a big brother, I will definitely not suffer."

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Gu Tangyu said, "I see that you have one good thing after another, and it's not good at this moment. When you get more, you will be coveted."

Tanghua also knows this truth, so he has never dared to let go of the good things he knows.

Gu Tangyu said: "I am a man, you are a recipe and an idea, the profit is eight to two, and I have not discussed it with me. You are not allowed to sell new things. How?"

Tang Hua hurriedly said: "It's feasible not to sell new things, but the profit doesn't have to be that much. I have so much money and I have nowhere to spend it."

Gu Tangyu laughed at him: "Who has money but no place to spend it? I see that you are short of manpower. Didn't you say earlier that you want to train a team of guards? How can you afford guards if you don't have money?"

"Slowly, you will get rich." Tang Hua thought for a while, and said, "Elder brother, let's split it fifty-fifty, or I won't be able to bear it."

Gu Tangyu didn't argue with him about this, "Success, I'll leave the men and horses to you at that time, and send me a letter if you have anything to do."

The two brothers finalized the matter in the middle of the night, and Tang Hua was determined, and with his elder brother supporting him, he finally didn't have to take any risks.

He didn't dare to let go of his hands to make money before, because he was afraid that the princess would confiscate all the property in his hands on the grounds that he would not have private property if the family was not separated. Now he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Tanghua told Ruan Shijie about this at night, and Ruan Shijie asked, "Are all your properties located in the capital city or surrounding areas?"

Tang Hua became nervous, "Sir, what's wrong?"

"For the time being, there is no problem, but if you are involved in the military|industrial industry in the future, it is best to place the production site within your brother's sphere of influence. It is too dangerous near the capital."

Tang Hua hadn't thought of this yet, he frowned, "What are the military|industrial industries?"

Ruan Shijie paused, and Fang said: "Weapons, armor."

Tang Hua froze for a moment, "Should I take these things back?"

Ruan Shijie: "It's up to you, but I suggest you observe again. If there are differences in the frontier, it's best to hold these things that can change your destiny in your own hands."

Tang Hua worriedly asked cautiously: "Sir, do you also feel that the frontier is unstable?"

"Also? Who else feels unstable?"

"My elder brother." Tang Hua swallowed, and said, "He feels that the frontier is not stable, so he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't go to sit in the town himself."

Ruan Shijie looked at him, "Your side is too far away from here and lacks the necessary information, so I can't analyze it, and I'm not from a military background, so I don't have relevant acumen. But—"

Ruan Shijie paused, "We studied history earlier. From ancient times to the present, there are few countries that have been stable for more than 200 years. How many generations have you founded the country?"

Tang Hua nodded, and after a moment said silently: "I see."

Ruan Shijie comforted him, "Don't be nervous, it's always a good thing to be prepared for danger in times of peace. I'll just say this as a reminder."

Tang Hua stood up and solemnly thanked him, "Thank you sir for reminding me."

Today is still not a school day, Ruan Shijie saw that he was in a bad mood, and asked, "Do you want to go out for a stroll?"

Tang Hua shook his head. Ruan Shi's explanation earlier had completely mobilized his sense of urgency. Now he just wants to find a book and doesn't want to go out to play at all.

Ruan Shijie followed him, took out a book from the bookcase, and read it with him.

After Gu Tangyu returned to the frontier, Tanghua planned to go back to Biezhuang.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the business at the fabric shop is getting better and better. Tanghua has not heard the news of Xiangyun Sha from the palace, and he is a little unwilling, and has been undecided whether to go back now.

Gu Tangyu left thirty confidant guards for him, but the news of Tanghua is still not well-informed, and the news in the market is enough, let alone reaching into the palace.

No one helped to talk and inquire, and Tang Hua didn't know when His Majesty would wear the clothes made of Xiangyun Sha.

Yarn making in Jiangping Plain is becoming more and more proficient, and Tanghua has stockpiled more than 300 pieces, just waiting for the day when the business will suddenly improve.

This day, Tang Hua was studying, He Zi trotted in from the outside, panting, "My lord, my lord! Our Xiangyun gauze is going crazy!"

"Huh? What's going on?"

He Zi shook his head, "I don't know, I just heard the news from the fabric shop that business is extremely hot today."

Tang Hua immediately stood up, "I'll go and have a look!"
