I was a famous teacher in ancient times

Chapter 434 Copper Coins
After the banquet, Zhou Yu helped Yang Xixuan, who had been drinking too much, to send a few important guests, and then went back to rest.

Yang Xi returned to the backyard after work and asked with concern, "Why does Xixuan drink so much wine?"

Zhou Yu touched his nose, his eyes floated a little, but he said, "Whoever makes him have a lock on his mouth, I will pour him a few more cups."

"How many cups?"

Yang Xi can't believe it, how many cups can get people drunk?
Zhou Yu's eyes on his daughter-in-law were even more guilty, "Cough, I changed the drink with a high degree of alcohol."

Yang Xi couldn't help but stretched out his finger and touched Zhou Yu's forehead, "You."

Zhou Yu was still aggrieved, "Don't you know what he said?"

Yang Xi asked, "Have you bullied you?"

Zhou Yu's face was slightly stiff, "That's not true, he just wants to rob our son."

Yang Xi glanced at Xixuan on the kang, "There's less drinking water."

Zhou Yu smiled, "I knew my daughter-in-law was facing me."

When Yang Xi heard the music, this one also drank a lot, "Okay, let's go back to rest."

Zhou Yu nodded obediently and got up, followed his daughter-in-law out of the house.

As soon as the two of them closed the door, Yang Xixuan opened his eyes with a smug look in his eyes. He didn't pretend to be drunk, but he still wanted to drink. In the end, he was fine, but his brother-in-law was a little drunk. However, is brother-in-law so obedient?

Yang Xixuan didn't drink much, but he was so tired that he fell asleep quickly.

Today, the three heads of the Yang family are all tired. Mrs. Jiang and Steward Xue led people to clean up the garden. When they were all cleaned up, the masters didn’t wake up. In the end, it was dark and the kitchen could be set on fire at night, so that the master would not wake up and be hungry.

However, the three masters slept honestly. They belonged to people who were seriously sleep deprived. They were really tired recently. They took a good night's sleep by drinking alcohol, and they slept until the next day.

When they woke up, the sun was high up, and after washing quickly, just to have breakfast earlier, their stomachs sang an empty city plan.

Yang Xi drank two bowls of porridge in a row, and his stomach felt comfortable. In addition, his energy and spirit were good, and the whole person's complexion improved a lot. "I have a good rest."

The brain finally got a rest, and now the thinking is very active.

Yang Xixuan ate five minutes full, and the speed of eating slowed down, "I'm going out of the city today to check the early rice harvest. Brother-in-law, do you want to go together?"

Zhou Yu refused without raising his head, "No, I want to see a few merchants today."

Yang Xixuan reacted for a while, he had too many things to do, and then he remembered what his brother-in-law said a few days ago, a sea merchant from another state came to Fucheng, "Smuggled?"

Zhou Yu, "Have you ever seen a sea merchant who didn't smuggle?"

There was no serious maritime business when the country was dead, let alone now.

Yang Xixuan touched his nose, "They came to Fucheng to find out about me?"

Zhou Yu snorted, "On the one hand, you are on the one hand, on the other hand, maritime merchants take big risks to go overseas, and when the goods come back, they will naturally have to be sold, in exchange for greater value. Ruizhou has had a good year this year, and you are in power again. Ruizhou is A fat sheep in the eyes of sea merchants."

Yang Xixuan, "Oh, it's taking me as a big head."

He is crazy to buy useless goods.

Yang Xi, "We don't buy goods, but we can entrust maritime merchants to help find what we need."

Yang Xixuan knew that there were powers behind the maritime merchants, and said with a sullen face, "When my ship is built, I will rob them in a hurry."

Anyway, it is the norm for maritime merchants to be black and black, let alone innocent people who can do smuggling business.

Zhou Yu's tone was somber, "It's not enough to have a sea ship, you must have enough cannons, otherwise you will still not be able to go to the far sea."

Yang Xixuan's eyes lit up, "It's all up to my sister and brother-in-law."

Yang Xi was delighted, "We must work hard."

Yang Xixuan was beaming with joy, his sister and brother-in-law would definitely succeed, that's right, he was so confident.

In the afternoon, Yang Xi met the manager of Yang's shop, "Do you want to see me?"

The shop steward didn't dare to look up, and said respectfully, "Yes."

Yang Xi asked, "What happened?"

Only then did the steward raise his head, "The last two batches of sugar and spices have all been settled in copper coins. The first time the villain didn't feel that there was anything to give directly, and the second time he needed to settle in copper coins. The villain felt wrong and came to the house immediately. Please see Mr.

Yang Xi repeated the copper coins, and then fell into deep thought. After recovering, he said to the steward: "Go to all the stores in the house to see if there are any settlements with copper coins."

The manager's perception was an opportunity for promotion, so he suppressed his excitement and responded, "Yes."

Yang Xi waited for the steward to leave and said to steward Xue: "You send someone to check in other stores."

Manager Xue noticed something big and planned to take someone to check it in person.

In the tea house in Fucheng, Zhou Yu met three maritime merchants, and the three maritime merchants clearly knew each other, and Zhou Yu ignored the lawsuit of the three of them.

After the tea was delivered, Zhou Yu invited a few people to drink tea. After the atmosphere eased, Zhou Yu said, "You all want to cooperate with Yang Mansion, but it is a pity that Yang Mansion only cooperates with one family."

These maritime merchants are very greedy. They not only want to take root in Fucheng, but also want to cooperate with the Yang family so that there is only one maritime merchant in Fucheng.

Then he is not welcome, the Yang family only cooperates with one family, but the initiative to choose who is in the Yang family.

Sure enough, Zhou Yu's words fell. The three maritime merchants are not one faction.

Zhou Yu listened to the three of them saying that they were sincerely cooperating, but none of them threw their chips.

Zhou Yu was not in a hurry, and asked with a smile, "I heard that there are many interesting plants overseas. I wonder if a few of you can talk about it so that Zhou can gain insight."

The three sea merchants did see a lot of plants, many of which were not found in the Central Plains, from fruits to some medicinal materials.

Zhou Yu listened carefully, but he didn't have the rubber he wanted, but he was not in a hurry, instead he asked, "Can you bring the fruit trees back?"

The maritime merchant surnamed Zhao stroked his beard, "I did bring it back, and the old man also invited someone to plant it. Mr. Zhou likes novel plants. When Mr. chance comes to Zhao's house, Zhao's house has transplanted a lot of plants brought back from overseas. plant."

Zhou Yu was heartbroken, but unfortunately he could not do without Ruizhou, but he agreed.

The other two merchants were a little anxious and introduced more novel plants.

When Zhou Yu returned home, the man Yang Xi sent out to inquire about the news returned to Yang's mansion and told Yang Xi the inquired news.

When Zhou Yu came back, she saw her daughter-in-law's face was serious, and when she looked again, her daughter-in-law was holding a few copper coins in her hand.

Zhou Yu stretched out his hand and took the copper coin, which is just an ordinary copper coin, "Is there any problem with the copper coin?"

Yang Xi motioned Zhou Yu to sit down, took the copper coins and said, "In the past month, many shops in Fucheng have been required to settle the payment in copper coins. You know, the circulation of coins is mainly copper coins, and the loss of a large amount of copper coins will affect the state of Ruizhou. The economy, fortunately, was discovered early.”
