Siheyuan: I have broken space

Wang Tingxuan was not in a hurry to leave, he wanted to make some preparations for his future.

How should we survive after traveling to ancient times?

If you want to be an emperor, then gunpowder, firearms and other technologies are necessary. Once you have your own territory, you can gradually strengthen yourself and dominate the world with advanced weapons.

If you don't want to dominate the world, it's better to be cautious with technologies such as gunpowder and firearms. In ancient times, even if you hid more swords in your home, you would be reported. Taking out such technology rashly is almost like courting death.

Apart from these technologies, what else is left?

The most common and feasible answer is glass and grain.

The importance of food does not need to be overemphasized, especially during this period, there were already traces of Westerners in the south of Chu State. This gave us a better excuse to bring out grain seeds. As long as food was promoted, it would be a talisman.

As long as you don't seek death, your status is more stable than that of the royal family.

As for glass, it is a tool for making money. Once you have glass and take out the mirror, it is not an exaggeration to say that you will make a lot of money.

Moreover, what the emperor needs most now is money. Only by presenting the secret recipe of glass and mirror at this time can he maximize the benefits.

Don't forget, Wang Tingxuan's true identity is that of a secret guard. With such an identity, there are many hidden dangers. Wang Tingxuan is not willing to be a secret guard all his life.

As an orphan, he lived in the emperor's farm as a child and had no access to the secret recipes for glass and mirrors. Only through his identity as a Westerner could he easily find out.

During this period, Westerners came to Chu State for the purpose of trading. The goods traded were tea, porcelain, and silk.

So, Wang Tingxuan came up with a trick to lay eggs by borrowing a chicken.

"Master Lin, I need your help with something."

"I don't know what happened." Lin Ruhai was still very puzzled that Wang Tingxuan was not in a hurry to return to Beijing.

But the identity of Wang Tingxuan's imperial bodyguard was not something he could hear at will.

"Actually, it's nothing. There is a Westerner in Yangzhou City, and I negotiated a deal with him. He needs some porcelain and silk. I hope Mr. Lin can help provide some."

This is not a requirement. Westerners look different from Chu people, and not many people are willing to do business with them. This is the reason why it is difficult for them to do business.

The Lin family has its own porcelain and silk shop, so there is no need to worry about these at all.

"I will ask Butler Lin to do it."

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Lin, you don't have to give them something too good, just something a little better than what's on the market."

Nowadays, most of the Westerners who can come to Chu State to do business are closely related to pirates. If he can blatantly deceive them, Wang Tingxuan will not show mercy.

Lin Ruhai agreed, and Wang Tingxuan had nothing to do and said: "Master Lin, I will return to Beijing tomorrow."

Lin Ruhai said: "I asked someone to diagnose and treat my little girl. My little girl's body also needs pills."

Wang Tingxuan said: "Mr. Lin, it's not that I don't give it to you, but you have to understand a truth. Only if you are good can Miss Lin live a good life. If you can't solve your own crisis, what will happen to Miss Lin in the future?

?"

"If you can overcome the difficulty, I will naturally give you the elixir. According to my observation, Miss Lin's body does not appear to be a natural frailty. I suggest you check the people and things around you."

Wang Tingxuan can only help so far, and if he continues to take action, he will really cross the line. He is the emperor's secret guard, and there is no reason to help the emperor's enemies.

Ever since Lin Ruhai's health recovered, the world of Lin Mansion has changed, and those around Butler Lin have begun to take power again.

Of course Jia Lian also knew that there would be no chance to bring the Lin family's property back to Beijing this time.

So, Jia Lian led people to block Wang Tingxuan: "Who are you?"

Wang Tingxuan said: "Master Jia, who I am has nothing to do with you."

"Do you know the consequences of offending Rongguo Mansion?"

"I didn't offend Rongguo Mansion. I would like to ask Mr. Jia to tell me where I offended Rongguo Mansion."

If you block the Rongguo Mansion's financial path, doesn't it count as offending the Rongguo Mansion?

But Jia Lian didn't dare to say this. If he said it, wouldn't he hope that Lin Ruhai would die soon?

This is where Jia Lian is in trouble.

Wang Tingxuan didn't have to do anything. As long as he cured Lin Ruhai's illness, everything planned by the Jia family would not be realized.

Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion have declined sharply since the death of the two brothers Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua. They cannot even maintain their power in the capital, let alone in Jiangnan. The only person Jia Lian can rely on is the Jinling Zhen family.

However, the relationship between Lin Ruhai and Zhen Yingjia was not good, and the two fought many times over the salt administration.

While Lin Ruhai is alive, Jia Lian cannot rely on Zhen Yingjia's power, at least not openly.

Anyway, he had no chance to teach Wang Tingxuan a lesson.

Of course Wang Tingxuan knew that Jia Lian was following him, but Jia Lian was not a big shot, so he didn't need to care about him at all.

Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Ruhai hesitantly, but hesitated to speak.

Lin Ruhai said: "Yu'er, what do you want to say?"

"Dad, you should take this pill."

Lin Ruhai said: "Yu'er, don't worry, dad still has a lot of pills in his hand. You are not in good health, so just take it. Dad still needs you to help manage the house."

Lin Daiyu nodded and took the pill.

After a while, Lin Daiyu said: "Dad, I feel much lighter and my body is warm."

Lin Ruhai said: "That's good. You are in good health, and I can rest assured to leave the housekeeping affairs to you."

Lin Daiyu said: "Of course Yu'er is willing to share the worries for dad, but Yu'er has never done this housekeeping thing before. She is afraid that if she doesn't do it well, her dad will be angry."

Lin Ruhai said with a smile: "You are the eldest lady in the house. Except for dad, everyone else will listen to you. Just do it with confidence and boldness."

Seeing that Lin Daiyu no longer postponed her resignation, Lin Ruhai said again: "Your grandmother was afraid that you would have no one to teach you, so she wrote to you many times to take you there. I was busy with official duties and couldn't take care of you, so I agreed to your grandmother's proposal. Now look

Come, but I was not considerate enough and ignored that your grandmother is old and has no energy to teach you."

Lin Daiyu frowned when she heard the reason for sending her to the capital for the first time. In the Jia family, Jia's mother did take care of her, but her own young lady could only learn some needlework, let alone a guest lady.

For the right to manage the house, the eldest and the second eldest brother-in-law of the Jia family were fighting overtly and covertly. How dare they, little girls, get involved.

"Since the father trusts his daughter, the daughter should try her best. However, if the daughter does not do well, the father is not allowed to blame her." Lin Daiyu suddenly said playfully.

Lin Hai laughed immediately, "Yu'er, just don't worry."

Lin Ruhai believed Jia Mu's words and sent Lin Daiyu to Jia's house. Only when she came back this time did she realize that Jia Mu had not fulfilled her obligation to educate her. When she came home, she was cautious for fear of offending others. Is this the eldest daughter of a scholarly family?

In addition to her personality, Lin Daiyu's talents and learning have not improved much. Many things were taught to her by herself. She didn't understand them at the time, but she remembered them in her heart. Now she just understands the meaning.

From every aspect, Lin Daiyu was not suitable for marriage from a wealthy family. Lin Ruhai knew that even if she passed the current difficulties, it would be in vain if she could not find a good in-law for Lin Daiyu.

Fortunately it's not too late.
