supreme heaven

() Rare gadgets like fireworks were originally the gadgets of the dignitaries in Yunjing City, and they are rare in the southeast. .

It was also Liu Wangcai, an old boy who was so ingenious that he just copied dozens of bags of fireworks from the North and South Goods Store in Longjia Daxing City. It seemed that Long Aochen was planning to keep them for his [-]th birthday. Lonely month.

Not to mention ordinary residents in Luocheng, many smaller families have never seen such a rare thing. When they first heard the explosion, the whole house seemed to be shaking slightly, and everyone was terrified beyond description. When something happened, they ran out of the house one after another, only to see that the night sky was extremely gorgeous, with fiery trees and silver flowers everywhere, and the sky was endless at night, like meteors descending from all sides, or like immortals entering the mortal world.

After being stunned, a person on the tower shouted loudly: "Everyone, at this time, my young master Qin Guyue has prepared another generous gift to celebrate Miss Qian Xunxue's succession as the Patriarch of the Qian Family. Please enjoy it to your heart's content!"

The person who spoke was Qin Chen. This time, he saved enough face for Qin Guyue.

Hearing the children of the aristocratic families below sigh, this is the son of the aristocratic family... This is the tall, handsome and rich... Looking at the pearls and gold I gave each one, I feel tacky to death...

Their feelings for Qin Guyue have become more complicated... It's no longer envy, jealousy, and hatred has already begun.

At the same time, on the high platform in the courtyard of the Thousand Family House, a man was wearing casual clothes, holding a cup of fine wine, leaning on the fence, watching the gorgeous fireworks in the night sky outside, and the blooming light was reflected on his face.

His eyes were slightly squinted, and everyone was intoxicated when he was not drunk. He seemed to be intoxicated in such an artistic conception.

At this moment, behind him, a woman in plain dress and long skirt slowly walked behind him with a jug of wine, lifted the jug silently, and poured him a glass of wine.

With a slight stretch of his elbow, he almost knocked over the glass of wine. Turning his head, the young man who had just gotten drunk suddenly saw the beautiful shadow beside him.

"Huh? Xunxue, you didn't tell me when you came upstairs?"

These two people can be said to be the real protagonists in these few days' activities, one is the eldest son of the world's number one family, the other is a heroine from the southeast, a young and promising talent and an equally young and promising beauty, If this is a storybook legend, it is almost time to write the Dzogchen ending now.

"I went down to get you wine just now." Qian Xunxue filled up the glass of wine, slowly raised it to Qin Guyue and said, "I apologize to you for what happened in the afternoon with this glass of wine... "

"Uh..." Qin Guyue was about to stop her when Qian Xunxue raised her head and drank the whole glass of wine.

"Those who don't know are innocent..." Qin Guyue explained, "Actually, I didn't know about this beforehand."

Qian Xunxue teased Qin Guyue with a smile, "It's strange, Guyue, why didn't I realize that you have learned to be humble?"

"Ah..." Qin Guyue thought to herself, honesty is wrong too... Forget it, I'll tell some lies from now on...

"In short, I'm very satisfied with this gift, thank you." Qian Xunxue raised her head and skillfully poured herself another cup.

"Haha..." Qin Guyue smiled and said, "It belongs to the Long family anyway, so it's not for nothing..."

Qian Xunxue gave Qin Guyue a white look, and said sourly, "Well, I thought it was specially prepared for me by someone..."

"It's kind of lame." Qin Guyue smiled heartlessly, but gradually suppressed her smile and turned around, as if the wind from high in the night swept past, clearing his slightly drunk head Many, looking at the crowd in the carnival in the city, said for no reason: "These will be your people from now on... Have you thought about what you will do in the future?"

Who would have thought that Qian Xun Xue replied as if she didn't answer the question: "Then have you thought about what to do?"

"Ah?" Qin Guyue was about to ask something, when a pair of jade hands were wrapped around his waist, she stood behind him and said softly: "Don't forget, you are also one of the heirs of the Qian Family..."

"Chi Jiangzi's words are just polite words, don't count..." Qin Guyue was about to explain, but saw Qian Xunxue's face changed and said: "Chi Jiangzi is telling the truth. What I said myself, how could it be true?" Countless..."

Only then did Qin Guyue laugh dumbly and said, "Okay, what the girl Chi Jiangzi said counts..." Now, the girl in front of her is already the owner of Luocheng, and Chi Jiangzi's title has naturally come under Qian Xunxue's name.

"Tell me, I want to hear about your experience in governing the city." Qian Xunxue said, nestling in Qin Guyue's arms like a bird, and said softly: "After all, I'm just a girl. There are many things. I really need you to help me."

Qin Guyue gently hugged Qian Xunxue in her arms, smiled and scratched her nose bridge and said: "You are a very good girl, I am afraid of you even if you don't give in to a man... "After finishing speaking, he held on to the railing with one hand, looked at the bustling crowd in the city, and said slowly: "First of all, start business. If I were to manage this city, the first thing I would do would be to expand the music market and reduce the taxes of these merchants." burden……"

"Huh..." Qian Xunxue couldn't help but wondered: "Guyue, the major families have always been farming-based, even if your Qin family is not the same. You must compare pennies and bucks on well fields and farm storage. Qian Zhuang doesn't pay much attention to it, why..."

"Because of the Long family." Qin Guyue said surprisingly, looking at Qian Xunxue beside her, she said, "In three generations, from an unknown low-level family, it has grown into a family in the southeast that is faintly comparable to our Qin family. , what do you think is the reason for this?"

"This..." Qian Xunxue thought for a while, and said: "The ancestors of the Long family were very ambitious, so the three generations have worked hard to rule. Compared with our families who are small and prosperous, they naturally develop much faster. ..."

Qin Guyue smiled lightly, and gently placed the three-legged bronze lord holding wine on the railing, looked at Qian Xunxue and said, "Look at this bronze lord, what you see is just the patterns on his surface, you don't See the liquid inside, and we use jug for drinking, right? So you only see the appearance, not the inside..."

At this moment, Qian Xunxue opened her eyes in surprise, looking at her "fiancé" in front of her, as if she didn't recognize him.

As if relying on Jiu Jin, Qin Guyue turned around, and Ling Feng said: "When I searched the Long family, I also checked some accounts, and I found that the characteristics of the Long family are different from our southeast family. merchants, not heavy agriculture... The family's biggest economic income is not farming, nor the pitiful well fields around Daxing City, but from the north-south trade, from the bank..." He raised his hand and pointed The fireworks that were still blooming in the sky said: "Look, these fireworks are brought back from Yunjing City by the Long Family's South and North Trading Company. Do you know how many times the profit is?"

"Five times the profit?" Qian Xunxue guessed: "The five times the profit is already very heavy!"

Qin Guyue shook her head lightly and said: "Each firework is the purchase price of one tael of official silver and the selling price of one tael of gold. I also knew when I was in Yunjing City that although this kind of firework is expensive, But it’s not as expensive as Jing, and a small rich family can afford it, but in the southeast, it’s probably not a special activity, maybe even a family like the Qianjia would be reluctant to use it?”

"Hundred...hundred times the profit?" Qian Xunxue was stunned when she heard Qin Guyue's description, especially when she heard Qin Guyue say that a firework is worth a tael of gold. There is something wrong with the eyes of the number one heroine in the southeast.

I feel sorry for the money...

If you are not in charge, you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive!

"What?" Qin Guyue seemed to have expected Qian Xunxue's expression like this, and said with a smile: "If you want to do this business, I will ask my father to introduce you to the Firearms Department when you return to Yunjing City with me on the Tusu Festival. It’s enough that the people in the store know you, and if you ask them to get these fireworks, the price may be much lower than that of Long’s North-South goods store..."

"This... These are made by the Firearms Department?" This time Qian Xunxue was surprised.Finally he knew why fireworks are so profitable, but almost no business is doing them... The reason is very simple, without an official background, without an unusual background, it is impossible for you to mention the goods!

What does the Firearms Division do?After all, not everyone who provides firearms for the army is a master of martial arts, and the number of physiognomy masters is very limited. Therefore, after absorbing the experience and lessons of Momen, His Majesty Taizu opened the "Firearms Department" for the first time in the army. Provide firearms for the army.

Facts have proved that this measure is quite correct. It not only made up for the embarrassment of not having enough physicists in the army, but also improved the overall combat effectiveness of the Shengtian Dynasty and the Shengtian Army at that time, so that it was later eliminated in the operation of Momen. , The firearms made by the Firearms Division are almost as good as the blue ones against the hidden weapons of the Shangmomen.

These fireworks are made from leftovers from firearms. The best fireworks are naturally presented to His Majesty the Emperor for royal celebrations. Most of the fireworks that can be used by the people are low-grade and inferior.

Even so, it can still feast the eyes of many people.

Seeing that Qianxunxue seemed to be persuaded by her, Qin Guyue went on to say: "There are many other forms of this kind of trade, just the income from this place, Xunxue, you can calculate by yourself, how many orchards and farmlands are equivalent What is the output? So this is the answer to the rapid rise of the Long family..." As he spoke, he pointed his hand to the south side and said, "There should be the Autumn Leaf Market?"

"Huh?" Qian Xunxue was about to ask Qin Guyue, but he spoke first: "Since there is a market, why not expand it? How about making it the number one market in the southeast?"

"Number one in the southeast..." Qian Xunxue was slightly taken aback by Qin Guyue's words, "Isn't that the Southern Capital City?"

Qin Guyue smiled and waved her hands, as if she was young and frivolous, said: "It used to be Nanducheng, but it will definitely be Luocheng in the future..."
