Good man, he has a golden finger

Chapter 205 Colorful Glass Bottle

"This is very good, Zhuzhuer. If you need anything, I will get it for you."

The emperor was happy when he thought that his troops could use such good things. He felt that money was not a problem. Besides, he had directly reduced military expenditures by more than 50%. How could the emperor be unhappy?

"Why use the prince's brother's private treasury? Those aristocratic families all have their pockets full of money. I am releasing this glass bottle today just to make those aristocratic families bleed out and not contribute to the country all day long. It’s the same old thing, boring.”

Xie Tingzhou laughed and then explained his plan. At this moment, the emperor suddenly understood why his younger brother gave those glazed bottles to the princes and arranged for them to give gifts to their families. It was absolutely incredible!

"Zhuzhu'er still knows how to feel sorry for me. Those aristocratic families are like maggots in the tarsal bones, which is annoying."

The emperor had no sympathy for those aristocratic families at all. Even though the Xie family was also an aristocratic family four hundred years ago, the Xie family did not treat the people as slaves and bully them at will.

But what have those so-called aristocratic families done now?

In addition to a few people who went to court to prevent him from attacking the Xiongnu, he also took the opportunity to raise the price of food during the floods in the south of the Yangtze River. The emperor was so angry that his anger level soared, and he directly slaughtered more than 8,000 people from an aristocratic family, which shocked the emperor. Only after the aristocratic family at that time did the subsequent disaster relief work.

It can be said that in prosperous times, aristocratic families cannot add glory to the court, but in troubled times, aristocratic families have to step on the bones of common people to rise, which is simply outrageous.

The emperor has been tolerant enough to the family in the past few years. Why did the family organize the emperor to attack the Huns? It was because once the Xiongnu were killed, the emperor's reputation would spread throughout the Yong Dynasty. If the emperor took action against the family, the common people would only Will support the cry.

A court that is prosperous and the people's lives are getting better and better does not need so many aristocratic families to look at it.

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, and then Xie Tingzhou took out two more artifacts.

"Brother Prince, not only the glass bottle, but also the white sugar and snow salt. I think that aristocratic family likes this kind of thing the most. In order to protect their face, this thing must be of great value, so just give it to me. Not to mention the military resources, it can also save more money for the prince's brother's private treasury. "

After all, in the ancient environment, in addition to normal battles, there were also various natural and man-made disasters, so it was necessary for the court to save more money. It was best to get all the money from those aristocratic families and empty their pockets.

"If Zhuzhuer is determined, then he will do what Zhuzhuer wants."

The emperor understood what Xie Tingzhou meant, and thought that the Xie family used to be so towering over the people. But after becoming the emperor, he saw the suffering of the people, and now he ignored it and only wanted to let the people They live a good life.

As an emperor, he is no longer the emperor of the Xie family, but the emperor of the Great Yong Dynasty. What he needs to protect is not the aristocratic family, but all the people of the Great Yong Dynasty.

No one knows what the two discussed after that, but at least the emperor was happy when he left Zhaoyang Palace. This worried Xie Jinyu who went to the Queen Mother's place for dinner at first, but later he no longer worried.

Because I heard from the Queen Mother that the Holy Father dotes on his nominal father the most and will never do anything to him.

On this day, Xie Jinyu slept in the same bed with someone for the first time. Next to him was the prince chosen by his biological father. Initially, Xie Jinyu thought that he would be nervous. However, under the other party's endless questioning, Xie Jinyu fell into a peaceful sleep. middle.

The princes' mother's family also welcomed angels from the palace in the days approaching the New Year.

When an angel arrives, all the heirs in the family will kneel down to greet him. Even though this angel may be sent by the prince, he still has to go through the clear path of the Holy One, and it is exactly the same as the Holy One's will.

After the eunuch who delivered the decree finished reciting the oral instructions, he brought up the gifted glass vase. At this moment, the dazzling flowers and the dazzling and gorgeous glass vase suddenly attracted everyone's attention.

The eldest prince's maternal family, that is, the empress's father, Cheng'en Gong, stood up at this moment, and with a wink, he asked the servant on the side to hand the banknote to the eunuch who delivered the order.

"Eunuch, the crown prince and the princess have given you such a glass vase, and I am very happy. I wonder if the new year is approaching, but what are the instructions from the Holy One?"

That’s right! The empress's father, Duke Cheng'en, was a straight man. He didn't make any big achievements. Although he came from a wealthy family, he always grew up quietly. The most awesome thing in Duke Cheng'en's life was that he gave birth to a good daughter and married into a wealthy family. In the palace.

Therefore, if the emperor has something to do, he will explain it directly and will not mince words. After all, Chengen Gong will be the prince's natural ally in the future.

"Don't worry, Mr. Cheng'en. The Holy Lord has shown grace this time, allowing the prince and princess to give the good things they donated to their mother's family. Not only the prince's gifts, but also those of other princes, and the princesses' houses as well."

The eunuch first said these words to reassure Duke Chengen, and then continued.

"However, this glass vase is a rare thing in the world. For such a beautiful object, it is best that there are people who can appreciate it and understand its value. Don't you agree, Mr. Cheng'en?"

When Duke Cheng'en heard this, he immediately understood what the Holy Master meant and hurriedly said.

"I understand, I understand."

After they left, Duke Chengen looked at the six glazed vases that were delivered and the unknown types of flowers blooming in winter on them, and said directly.

"I'll post a post tonight and invite my best friends to come over tomorrow to enjoy the flowers."

Mr. Cheng'en looked at his wife. His wife was much smarter than him. Naturally, she understood it at the first time and nodded.

"I will also post some invitations to invite close friends."

Yes, there is no need to say more about smart people.

That night, many famous families received invitations to post invitations. They were all invited by the maternal families of princes and princesses. Of course, among the maternal families of these princes, only the maternal family of the prince was a noble family.

Because of the special arrangement of the emperor, the concubines selected by the other princes were all from ordinary families, so they only invited their relatives and friends.

It snowed on the second day, but how could the invited people not give face to Mr. Cheng'en? After all, if the prince became the emperor in the future, Mr. Cheng'en's identity would be even more different. He was a member of the emperor's family.

So even if it snowed, it still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of these noble sons and daughters. After receiving the visiting cards, they all came with their elders. Some came to see the flowers, and some had some ideas, which was not certain.

But the protagonist of this banquet was none other than the glass bottle. Even though they were from aristocratic families and had seen many rare treasures, it was the first time they had seen such a beautiful glass vase.

Although it was snowing, the glass bottle, which should have been transparent, was now shining with colorful light under the refraction of the sun, which was simply dazzling. Moreover, the ancients always believed that colorful light was divine light, which could protect descendants.

Now many people had their eyes on the glass bottle and asked Cheng Engong.

Cheng Engong did not hide it either, saying that it was something from the palace, and that it was specially rewarded by the prince and the princess, so they wanted to enjoy it with everyone.

Everyone also wrote a lot of poems for the glass. After all, who doesn't like such a beautiful, expensive and rare thing?

After this day, the colorful glass bottle was completely resounding throughout the capital, and even the street vendors had heard of it, saying that it was a bottle used by the gods, so it could emit colorful light.

Although Xue Baocheng's sister in the palace did not give birth to a child, she still saw the glass bottle.

"Oh my god, how can there be such a treasure in the world?"

Xue Baocheng had seen colored glaze before, but most of them were yellow or green, with some impurities in them. How could it be like what he saw now? It was so beautiful that it made people feel shocked. I felt that only immortals could own this thing.

"This is the seven-color colored glaze bottle, a gift from the palace."

Xie Jinyu raised his chin proudly. He had more than the other princes and princesses, more than a dozen, all placed in the Anle Palace, and there were several in his bedroom, which made Xie Jinyu naturally happy.

He brought the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry here this time to make colored glaze, but this colored glaze is not something you can make if you want to. It requires a venue and subsequent research and development funds. In fact, Xie Jinyu has had money over the years, but since his father asked to bring the boy from the Xue family, Xie Jinyu didn't think it was a big deal.

"The things in the palace are really good!" Xue Baocheng felt that he was an illiterate at this time, and he couldn't praise a good poem, so he could only stare at the colored glaze bottle blankly.

When he heard Xie Jinyu say that they wanted to study the method of making colored glaze together, he was stunned.

"Your Highness, what did you say? You said that I can also share the secret recipe of colored glaze?"

Oh my God... Xue Baocheng felt that his brain was about to break down, otherwise how could he hear such words.

"Yes, from now on, this item is a sacred item passed down by your Xue family. The production process is complicated. It was originally a gift to the emperor. But if some wealthy and extravagant people, and some noble family servants come to the door, you, a small imperial merchant, will not be able to resist. You can only raise the price. It is difficult to buy colored glaze treasures with ten thousand gold coins. Do you understand?"

Yes, this is all the plan. The emperor cannot come to sell things in person, but the Xue family can!

Xue Baocheng is the imperial merchant. He doesn't know where he got this colored glaze bottle from. After giving it to the emperor, he must have hidden it, right? So when everyone comes to you, they give you some benefits and more money, you have to give it, right?

At this moment, Xue Baocheng suddenly understood that his current identity was the money bag of the glass bottle. If someone asked, he would sell the glass bottle at a high price. After the matter was completed, he could also get 10% of the secret recipe of the glass.

How did such a good thing come to him?

"Your Highness, am I dreaming? How... how did such a good thing fall on my head?"

Xue Baocheng did not think he was powerful, but was a little at a loss.

Xie Jinyu was a little jealous of Xue Baocheng. He was obviously just traveling with his father, but he was remembered by his father. He could only grit his teeth and say.

"That was my father's personal instruction. He asked you to do it. If you can't do it well, it will embarrass my father in front of the emperor."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Baocheng understood why the big pie fell on him! He immediately knelt down with a plop.

"Your Highness, please rest assured! I will do it properly at this time! I won't embarrass the prince!!!"
