Great Blue Night Watchman
Chapter 425 An unexpected surprise
Lin Zheng, he saw it. Judging from his appearance, he was handsome and unrestrained. Judging from his behavior, he was calm and calm, with the air of a general! No wonder the second princess likes him.
Lin Jialiang is also personable. Although he is polite, his politeness also has the calmness of an official.
As for Lin Su, his performance at this moment was completely different from his performance when he entered the palace that day. When he entered the palace that day, he pointed out the country, inspired people with words, and cut through the sky like a sharp sword. His heroic spirit of literary and Taoism is still there to this day. The four princesses were fascinated, but today Lin Su was a good boy, following behind his mother and brother without showing any sharpness.
Of the three brothers, he is the one with the least presence.
This kid...
What surprised him the most was his wife!
Yao Qianlu had seen many wives from wealthy families, and most of them were inseparable from their arrogant nature. Even the etiquette looked fake, but this lady was modest and polite, and the way her servants looked at her showed no fear, but fear. Respect and intimacy, such a wife is good news to the daughter-in-law. In the future, the second princess will not be miserable when she marries her!
He is very satisfied with the four heads of the Hou family!
He was surprised by the Marquis's house. From the outside, the house looked no different from an ordinary house, but when he entered the inside, it was completely different. The ground was paved with regular stones, and the corners and ditch banks were all covered with stone. With regular stones, the entire courtyard looked extremely delicate and clean. He had never seen such a meticulous courtyard. In addition, every tree, every flower bed, and even every branch on the tree was extremely pruned. Carefully.
"Third Master!" The master's voice came to his ears, which was Wen Dao's message: "Judging from this courtyard, the Lin family is really rich. These stones are so neat and orderly, so they must have cost a lot of money... Ah, this Gui family is very rich." Could it be that the floor of the hall is paved with jade? This..."
The master's Wen Dao transmission was suddenly cut off. He stared at the floor of Guitang that had just been opened, his eyes wide open.
What is this ground? It is as white as jade, the light can shine on people, and there are carved patterns on it.
Yao Qianlu was shocked. He was someone who had entered the Imperial Palace of Nanyang Ancient Kingdom. There was no such luxury in the palace, with such exquisite jade as the floor!
Yao Qianlu and his master looked at each other. Yao Qianlu shook his head slightly and signaled his master not to say anything. Although the Lin family's wealth and luxury exceeded their imagination, he did not forget that he came from Zhenbei Palace. He was not a country bumpkin. He could not express surprise. That would make people look down upon.
We sat down, exchanged greetings, and started serving food and wine.
As the food and wine arrived, things shocked them one after another...
The bowls were made of top-grade white porcelain, as were the cups and plates, the wine was made of top-grade white porcelain, and the dishes had a taste they had never tasted before, extremely delicious...
Yao Qianlu and his master sat at a table with the master's family, and the eight people accompanying him sat at a table with the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion. While Yao Qianlu was chatting with his wife, his eyes occasionally fell on another table, which made him blush every time. I was extremely careful when holding bowls and cups, for fear of accidentally dropping them...
At the wine table, they talked about the dinner, because it happened to be noon when they arrived, and it was considered a casual banquet at noon. According to Madam's idea, the dinner was to be held, and Magistrate Yang and the great scholars from Haining University were invited to come over, but Yao Qianlu declined. Yes, the meaning was clearly expressed. The marriage between the Yao and Lin families was a marriage between two countries. It was somewhat taboo, so it was better not to make it too public.
As soon as he said this, everyone turned their attention to Lin Su.
It must be said that when it comes to major matters, Lin Su is still the backbone of the Lin family.
In line with the guiding ideology of not stealing the limelight from her elder brother, Lin Su originally planned to be invisible today, but now, she can only express her position: "The friendship between gentlemen lies in the heart, and the friendship between relatives lies in the truth. Mother, just follow the Third Master Do as you say."
So, there was only a family dinner but no feast.
After the meal, only a group of people from Zhenbei Palace were left in the guest room, and they could talk openly.
"I really didn't expect that the Lin family is so luxurious. They walk on jade floors that are hard to buy for a thousand taels of silver. They drink from the top-quality Baiyunbian that costs a thousand taels of silver. They use cups, plates and bowls that cost a set of ten taels of silver. I'm not afraid of dad." It's a joke, my hand holding the bowl is a little shaky..." The person who spoke was the third master's son Yao Hong. He came to Da Cang with his father to gain some experience. Before setting off, he was a little dismissive of Da Cang, thinking that Da Cang Compared with the ancient country of Nanyang, Cang was always inferior in everything, but after just one meal today, he completely changed.
Yao Qianlu glanced at him: "Are you a little trembling? You are trembling all the time! You are a worthless thing!"
Yao Hong blushed...
The master smiled softly: "Third Master, do you think... could this be deliberately artificial by the Lin family?"
"... Even if he is deliberately pretentious, he is still sincere. At least, he is willing to spend so much. But what I don't understand is that the Lin family was confiscated just the year before last, and the family property cannot be strong. Why does the family have such financial resources? The layout and the standard of entertaining distinguished guests are all unimaginably high.”
Yao Qianlu said.
Everyone feels the same...
A person came out from behind, but it was Yao Zhilue, a great scholar who was accompanying them. Yao Zhilue spoke: "Before leaving, the prince specifically asked to take a look at the Lin family's family tradition and appearance. To tell the truth, everything is beyond my understanding. If I have to find some flaws, maybe there is only one thing... There is no commode in such a luxurious guest room, which may be called a hundred secrets and a sparseness..."
Everyone was slightly startled, there is no toilet?
Eating, drinking, and having sex is the most basic thing for entertaining guests. How could you neglect it?
Yao Hong also searched around, but there was really nothing, but he made a new discovery, that is, he actually discovered a new luxury product, Spring Tears perfume! There was also a very delicate wooden box. He didn't recognize the contents inside the wooden box. It smelled fragrant and must be snacks. He took the wooden box out and showed it to his father...
Yao Daru's expression changed: "I am not afraid of the slight frost on my jade skin, I hate that there is no running water to illuminate the ice shape. I looked at it from the beginning and saw the first branch in the southeast for the first time... This is the jade skin soap, used for bathing. It has just been introduced to Nanyang. A box of ten taels of silver, they actually prepared all this?"
Yao Hong blushed on the spot.
It's so shameful for a dignified prince to treat this bathing thing as a snack.
At this moment, a girl's voice came from outside: "My slave Xiaoxue is the girl next to the madam. The madam asked my slave to come over and deliver some tea to the distinguished guest."
"Come in!" Yao Qianlu said.
The two girls next to him hurried up to meet them. These two girls were brought by Yao Qianlu from the palace to serve them. They took the tea, expressed their gratitude to Xiaoxue, and also asked about one thing: Sister Xiaoxue, tea, these things, slaves Let's do it. Please point me to a place and let's boil water.
Xiaoxue took them into the tea room, picked up the pot on the table, and gently turned a knob next to it. The water rushed down. When the water was full, she closed the knob and placed the pot in a slot. The water began to bubble. When Xiaoxue raised her head, the two girls' eyes widened: "Sister Xiaoxue, don't you need firewood?"
Most people in the palace would not express their ignorance directly, lest they appear ignorant, but the girl was very direct and asked directly.
Xiaoxue smiled softly: "This is designed by Sister Chen in the mansion. There is a fire magic stone below, so no firewood is needed. In addition, I will show you the place for bathing and toileting..."
After this trip, the two girls really responded to the scene in "Dream of Red Mansions". What? Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.
For the first time, they learned that they could collect water while sitting in the house, that the toilet had a different shape, and that all they had to do to take a bath in the house was turn a knob.
It was also the first time that they knew that a bottle of perfume worth three hundred taels of silver and a box of soap worth ten taels of silver were actually prepared in the guest room. Moreover, the sister in front of them told them that these are all prepared for you. You can come anytime. Can use……
"This... I don't dare to use this slave!" Both girls turned pale.
Xiaoxue smiled softly: "It's nothing. All the girls in our Lin family can use it at any time. The things we produce are not so precious in the Lin family..."
The two girls were frozen in place, not even turning their eyes, as if they had stopped breathing...
After Xiaoxue left, the girl woke up and first reported the toilet issue that everyone was concerned about (Master could no longer hold it in at this time). When everyone heard this, they were all confused...
They searched a lot but couldn't find the toilet. They thought the owner had neglected it, but that was not the case! In the Lin family, there is no toilet at all. They use a novelty called a flush toilet. To urinate and defecate in the toilet, you press the knob and it is automatically flushed away. There is also an automated faucet on top. As long as you turn the knob, hot water will naturally flow down to take a bath. In this way, the latrine will be fragrant, clean and tidy, better than all the nobles in the world, including the royal family!
Why do they suddenly feel like they are really country bumpkins?
Next, the girl reported the second thing: "Third Master, that sister Xiaoxue just told us that Baiyunbian wine, porcelain, soap, and Spring Tears perfume are all produced by the Lin family..."
The third master shouted: "What?"
Even the master who was using the toilet in the toilet almost jumped up.
Baiyunbian wine has been sold in the ancient capital of Nanyang for two hundred taels of silver per jar, Spring Tears are also priced at the same price, and porcelain and soap are sold for ten taels of silver per box. All of these represent the highest-end products.
Once it appears in the capital, it will be snapped up immediately, and no one else can grab it.
As the person in charge of the palace's foreign trade, Third Master also participated in many competitions and gained little.
Many people have asked where these magical things come from, but the people in the Song family firm are very secretive. They only say that they come from overseas fairy mountains, and they don't even disclose which fairy mountains.
Now that he stepped into Haining, he actually got this answer: These ceiling-level products all come from the Lin family!
The third master took a deep breath: "Are you sure these things belong to the Lin family?"
The girl said: "It's true! Sister Xiaoxue said that even the girl in the Lin family can use these things..."
Yao Hong slowly raised his head: "Dad, I think... it might be true. Otherwise, the Lin family wouldn't be so wealthy."
The master who had just walked out of the toilet said: "Third master, this is a big opportunity, can you..." His words stopped abruptly.
The third master's heart was pounding...
He knew what the master meant. In the past few years, the Zhenbei Palace gave up a lot of things for the sake of safety, and the profitable business was basically gone. Now that it has stabilized, it needs to consider the livelihood problems of thousands of people. This problem has always been there. On the third master’s head.
If these magical products from the Lin family could be brought back to Nanyang, wouldn't the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion make a fortune every day? All problems will be solved.
But how to mention this?
Such a high-end product is being snapped up all over the world, and the price tag is very expensive. It is not good to give people such a big problem when they first meet.
A follower came in from outside: "Report to Third Master, uncle is here."
Lin Zheng's arrival brought spring to Zhenbei Palace...
The Lin and Yao families reached a business agreement. Baiyunbian, Chunlei Qiulei, and even the newly produced Chunhen, porcelain, and soap were given sufficient quotas to the Yao family, and the ex-factory price was far lower than Yao Qianlu's expectations. Such a deal The big order was obtained without any effort. Yao Qianlu and his party of more than ten people all seemed to be in a dream.
Even Lin Zheng's heart was pounding wildly. According to the Yao family's own calculations, from this big deal, the Yao family would earn a net profit of 500,000 taels per year!
This is the courage of my brothers!
It’s also the love between brothers!
Although he, Lin Zheng, had been fighting at the border for ten years and had nothing, his brothers had already built the strongest foundation for him and would do anything for his marriage!
The third master finally let go of all his wariness and went up to the next level about the engagement. Considering that the two families were thousands of miles apart, there was no need to travel back and forth. The three matchmakers and six appointments were completed at once. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival and the princess is officially presented to the princess. Pass the door...
…
The sun is shining brightly above the Yangtze River. The weather in early summer is quite hot, but the rolling water of the Yangtze River brings a little bit of coolness.
A small boat was gliding among the waves. There were three people on the boat, all dressed as scholars.
But if you look closely, you will find that these three people are all from Xibei. They have red lips and white teeth, bulging breasts, and faces that are more delicate than flowers. They are clearly three beauties.
If Lin Su were around, he would definitely be surprised.
Because he knew all three of them, the two princesses Hongying and Hongye, plus the girl Xing'er.
No one would have thought that they would appear in Haining.
Feudal ethics have taken root in this world. The daughter's family must not go to the man's house before she gets married. Therefore, while the process of three matchmakers and six betrothals is still going on, it is impossible for the woman to follow.
However, Hongying just came.
She is from the world, and she has always been a maverick representative in the palace. Think about it, she can live with her wild husband for three years before getting engaged. What can't she do?
She wanted to meet her lover, so she had to come!
The prince had imprisoned her and blocked all her military power in the early stage, but he was still unable to stop her. Now that he had figured it out, he turned a blind eye and got on the ship.
But the prince never expected that some things could be contagious. Hong Ying, a shameless girl, ran away, and his fourth girl, who usually seemed very well-behaved, wrote poems and painted paintings, and always made him feel at ease. He also ran away.
And she even convinced her mother!
How to convince?
Until now, the princess feels that she has been trapped by her daughter...
The girl hugged her mother and said with emotion: The palace is really thrilling this year. In the early days, it was very precarious under the pressure of the royal family. But now it has finally cleared up, and the child is finally relieved and can go out to play with her sister. It’s time to play and relax, mother, don’t you think so?
When the previous events were mentioned, the princess felt frightened and empathized with her, and nodded deeply: Yes! Who says it's not?
As soon as she said this heartfelt emotion, Hongye jumped up: Thank you, mother, I'll go then!
Afterwards, the princess also realized that her daughter’s words contained something personal and she had been tricked! But it's already too late. If I personally promised it, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to take it back from my fourth daughter...
