Chapter 359

Wei Furong didn't go to the patriarch's house, there was something to do at home, and the New Year's Eve dinner needed to be prepared, and Wei Hao, Wei Yuanzhao, Wei Ting and the others came to Wei Yuanzhao's house.

"Come on, let's drink tea today, the desserts are served, and we will have dinner at my house at noon, this year we will be able to get together today!" Wei Furong invited everyone to sit down, and for today's drinking tea, he specially brought We set up 6 tea tables, let everyone sit down separately, and make tea by ourselves. "Let me take a place to make tea!" Wei Hao said with a smile, and everyone laughed when they heard it.
Everyone knows that this tea is only sold by Wei Hao's family, and it is also made by Wei Hao.

"Uncle Shenyong, we have convinced you. When it comes to food, no one can compare to you. The key point is that you not only like to eat, but you can also use it to make money. The business in Juxian Building is not good. Every time you go If you want a private room, you have to reserve it in advance, otherwise, you can only sit in the living room!" Wei Yu sat there, looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"I don't need it now. Now I have about 40 boxes. Is it enough?" Wei Hao asked with a smile.

"Is there enough? It's usually not enough, not to mention that during the Chinese New Year, everyone wants to go to Juxian Tower when they come back. The boxes are very tight!" Wei Ting immediately said to Wei Hao.

"Then I don't know, I don't care much about things over there!" Wei Hao said with a smile and shaking his head, he really didn't care much about the restaurant.

"Well, our family has indeed taken advantage of Shenyong. Now, the children of our Wei family live comfortably in Chang'an. At least, the family gives them a lot of subsidies, and those of our family Those who are in business, no one dares to bully, the main thing is you!

Last month, someone robbed a child of our family's cloth shop, and Wei Ting came forward later, otherwise, the cloth shop would have been robbed, and the boy came back to express his thanks, saying that he would donate 100 guan, but I didn't want it , not that bad, as long as they strive,

If you need people, just hire the family's children to work, but, Shen Yong, I have heard some news, I don't know if it is true or not, you have to tell me! "Wei Yuanzhao sat there and asked Wei Hao.

"Well, patriarch, tell me!" Wei Hao asked while making tea there.

"I heard that dozens of workshops will be established in the eastern suburbs, and many of them are artisans from the Ministry of Industry. Now they are producing in private houses in the eastern city. The benefits are very good. We also tried to get in touch with them, but they just In a word, they don't care about the cooperation with you! Shenyong, but is there such a thing?" Wei Yuan looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Your news is really well-informed, there is such a thing! However, it is best for every family not to touch this business. This is something His Majesty is staring at, and the profits here are so high that you can't even imagine , if you take this equity, I don't think His Majesty will be relieved, but you can go to research the workshop by yourself, why do you have to wait for ready-made ones?" Wei Hao sat there, looked at Wei Yuanzhao and asked, those People laughed wryly when they heard it, how could it be so easy to open a workshop?

"Shen Yong. We don't have such abilities!" Wei Yuanzhao said helplessly to Wei Hao.

"These workshops, Patriarch, you really don't need to think about them. After the next year, I will definitely set up rice workshops and flour workshops. At that time, the family can buy shares, and there will be a lot of profits here.

In addition, what kind of workshop the family wants to build, you come to me, I will help as much as possible, don't count on my workshops, they are useless, your majesty can rest assured, your majesty will not say anything about the workshops you build yourself ,is not it?Figure out a way first. "Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao and said. Wei Yuanzhao didn't understand what Wei Hao meant.

"I understand what Shen Yong means, patriarch, we really need to listen to Shen Yong, what kind of workshop do we want to build, tell Shen Yong, if there is any problem, tell Shen Yong, and Shen Yong will solve it for us , the workshop belongs to our family,

In this way, other families have no share, our family has only one share, and His Majesty really can't say anything, if the profit is big, wouldn't it be good if we also share the royal shares? " Wei Ting was sitting there at the moment, looking at Wei Yuan and talking to them, they understood what was going on.

"That's the reason, Patriarch, you really need to do this, count on me, no, His Majesty can't get through, and now His Majesty is forcing me to get those workshops out as soon as possible, and the court is also short of money!" Wei Wei Hao looked at Wei Yuanzhao and said.

"It makes sense, it makes sense. We really have to figure out a way to do this. If you have any good ideas, let's talk about them!" Wei Yuanzhao said to those children.

"Well, I won't think of it for a while, but if we think of it, we will definitely come and talk to the patriarch." Wei Ting thought about it, shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"Don't talk about this, tell me about you, how is this year? Brother Wei Ting, you and I won't ask. You are rising steadily, and His Majesty also values ​​you. You don't need to worry about your position. I guess the next step will be the sixth department." Shang Shu! However, it is not so fast, it will take several years!" Wei Hao looked at Wei Ting and said,

Wei Ting also nodded with a smile. He is indeed good this year, but he still said to Wei Hao: "It's because of you. Although His Majesty also thinks highly of me, if my colleagues make me stumble, I can't do anything about it, but Because with you here, they don't dare to trip me up, knowing that if you are offended, you will do it!"

"That's nonsense, I don't have that much power!" Wei Hao waved his hands quickly and said.

"Uncle Shenyong, you really have such power. Anyway, I go to the Sixth Ministry to do business, and they dare not make things difficult for me." Sitting there, Wei Yu said,
And Wei Cong is very bitter at the moment. If he had known earlier, he should not have left Chang'an County. It would be great to be a county magistrate in Chang'an County, and he has merit. Now that he is at the court, hey, it is very difficult to get promoted.

"How about you, how are you?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Yu with a smile and asked.

"I'm not bad. Anyway, in Chang'an County, Uncle Wei Cong laid the foundation for me and let me pick up a ready-made bargain!" Wei Yu immediately said to Wei Cong.

"Hey, I'm also obsessed with ghosts!" Wei Cong said with a wry smile, and the others also laughed.

"You, I'm not talking about you. For you, how many relationships the family has used. In the end, you are not satisfied. I told you as an old man. You have to think about it carefully. The result, you can see for yourself!" Wei Yuanzhao also looked at Wei Cong helplessly and said.

"Yes, it wasn't me at the beginning, hey, don't mention it!" Wei Cong thought for a while, but he didn't have anything to say, it was already like this, so what else to say.

"Well, let the others talk!" Sitting there, Wei Yuanzhao watched those people ask questions, and the officials continued to talk about their affairs this year, what they want to do next year, and those who want to be promoted, just watch Wei Hao,

Wei Hao also gave them some suggestions, and told them that when they need help, they can come to him, and he will help if he can. If he can't help, then don't blame himself.

Throughout the morning, Wei Hao chatted with them, Wei Hao also talked about the future policy direction of the court, and let them know what to do next?How to do it?These people heard it and kept it in their hearts. They all knew that what Wei Hao said was not groundless. After all, Wei Hao was the closest to His Majesty and knew what His Majesty wanted to do. Therefore, they attached great importance to Wei Hao's words.
At noon, Wei Hao had dinner with those people at Wei Yuanzhao's residence,
After eating, Wei Hao went back. When he got home, the servants at home were also busy. Some of the servants didn't go back because they were not married, and some were bought by the family, which belonged to them. They didn't go home, but those who had a home would let them go home.

Wei Hao lay on the side of the living room for a while, and before he knew it, it was getting dark, and then the family sat in the living room and had a New Year's Eve dinner. At the same time, those servants also asked them to eat. Now Wei Hao and the others do it yourself.

"Come on, drink some wine, don't drink too much!" Wei Furong was holding the wine bottle, Wei Hao saw it, stood up quickly, and took the wine bottle over. Now sitting here are all Wei Hao's elders, two grandparents , plus Wei Furong and Wang Shi, and those concubines.

"Come on, let me come, everyone have a drink, just one drink, and I will keep watch at night!" Wei Hao said to Wei Furong and the others.

"Well, good!" Wei Furong nodded, and then Wei Hao poured wine for them, in order, the first one was for Wei Furong, the second was for Wang Shi, then the two grandparents, and then those aunts ,
After it was poured, Wei Furong also picked up his wine glass and said, "Everything is going well at home this year, Shen Yong also gained a title, and the family has also moved into a new mansion, which is the best mansion in Chang'an City. , there is money, there is food, everything is fine, Shen Yong has not caused much trouble to Hu Hao this year, today, let's drink some first, come! Two aunts, my son respects you!"

"Hey, both Jin Bao and Shen Yong are fine, both children are fine!" said one of the grandmothers.

"Grandma, my grandson respects you too!" Wei Hao also said while holding a wine glass. After clinking glasses with them, Wei Hao looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "Mother, my son respects you!"

"Okay, I'm proud of my son, I'm really proud of my mother!" Mrs. Wang smiled and clinked glasses with Wei Hao, and then Wei Hao held the glass and said to several aunts: "My aunt, my son respects you!"

"Hey, it's great that Shenyong has made the family proud. Auntie is so happy, she's proud to go there!" Li Shi also said with a smile,

And Wang and Wei Furong also touched each other, and then said: "Come on, everyone, our family has only a small number of people, there are not so many rules, after drinking, eating, Shen Yong and I will watch the night!"

"Okay!" Mrs. Wang also nodded with a smile, and then started to drink it all in one gulp. Wei Hao and the others did the same.

"Come, eat food, it's all good food, come, auntie!" Wei Furong began to pick up food for grandma and the others, and Wei Hao's aunts also picked up food for Wei Hao.

"Eat, eat!" Wei Hao also greeted, and the family also ate and chatted slowly around the table.
Wei Hao and the others ate this meal for about half an hour, and then they moved to Wei Hao's greenhouse to sit. Mrs. Wang and the others played mahjong, and Wei Furong played mahjong with his grandma and another aunt. Wei Hao served them tea and water, brought them snacks,

After midnight, Wei Hao went outside to close the gate, and those female relatives went back to sleep in their small courtyard. Wei Hao and Wei Furong were guarding the front yard.

"Hao'er, you can sleep!" Wei Furong said while looking at Wei Hao.

"Forget it. I slept all afternoon. I'm not sleepy. Let's sleep, dad." Wei Hao looked at Wei Furong and said.

"Yeah. Dad can't sleep either. Dad is very happy, really happy. Sometimes when Dad gets up from the bed, he has to think about it in a daze. Is it true? , although my son is a bit naive, he is really capable!

Look at this mansion, look at so many servants, dad is happy, Shenyong, you are better than dad, much stronger, dad is proud of you! "Wei Furong sat there, looked at Wei Hao, patted Wei Hao on the shoulder, and said with a little emotion.

"Hey!" Wei Hao laughed when he heard it.

"Dad was thinking at that time, my son's prodigal family should be slow, not so fast, so fast, dad can't lose so much money, and the family business will not be enough by then!
I just thought, if my son can marry a daughter-in-law, and then take a few concubines, after the child is born, father will train those grandchildren well, and father will not count on you. Unexpectedly, my son is a person with great ability ! "Wei Furong continued to speak to Wei Hao.

"Father, I'm just stupid, but it's not that I have a brain problem. Don't worry, Dad, our family's property, um, ordinary prodigals can never lose!" Wei Hao said with a smile, looking at Wei Furong.

Wei Furong heard it, and slapped Wei Hao with a smile and said: "You son of a bitch, what kind of prodigal son, our family does not have a prodigal son, and we will not have a prodigal son. In the future, my grandson will definitely not be a prodigal son!"

"Yes, yes, you just keep staring. I don't care if you keep staring!" Wei Hao also said with a smile.

"Okay, hey, okay, that's great!" Wei Furong said and grabbed Wei Hao's shoulder vigorously, affirming his son,
Wei Hao just smiled, and then looked at Wei Furong and said, "Father, take a break, I will rely on you at home tomorrow, and I have to go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings, and to pay New Year's greetings to those princes and dukes. You entertain me at home, but Need to sleep well!"

"Well, it's fine, you still have a chance to sleep tomorrow." Wei Furong nodded and said, then lay down on the sofa,
Wei Hao covered Wei Furong with a blanket, and he himself was sitting beside the tea set, drinking tea and eating snacks,
When dawn was approaching, Wei Furong woke up and asked Wei Hao to rest for a while, because after dawn, Wei Hao was going to the palace to have breakfast, and there was also Mrs. Wang, who also needed to go to the palace to feed the grandson queen pay a New Year call,
I don't know how long I slept, Wei Furong woke Wei Hao up, and then he washed up, and then his servants put Wei Hao on the Duke's Mansion and put on a cloak, which seemed to be made by the Queen.

Then he and Wang went to the palace. At this moment, there were already many people here, all of them were from various lords' residences, and they were all officials of the fifth rank and above, and they all rushed to Chengtianmen.

"Happy New Year greetings to you, Happy New Year!"

"Shen Yong, happy Chinese New Year!"

"Hey, Uncle Cheng, Happy Chinese New Year! Happy New Year to you!".
Along the way, Wei Hao and those people bowed their hands to each other, saying New Year's greetings and a happy new year, and Wang was very happy to see so many people greeting his son in the carriage, and now their imperial wives, They were all in the carriage, so there was no way to congratulate each other, but after arriving at Chengtian Gate, Wei Hao helped Mrs. Wang get off the carriage.

"Mrs. Wei, New Year's greetings to you!" Some dukes and wives saw Wang coming down, and said first, and Wang also said New Year's greetings to them, and then joined Hong Funu, who is also the wife of the imperial court, and she is also the king's wife. The husband and wife, plus they are the relatives of the sons and daughters, so they must be together now,

And Wei Hao was with those princes, chatting with each other, and soon the palace gate opened, Wei Hao and the others entered the palace, walking towards the Ganlu Hall,
At this time, in the Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin, Empress Changsun, several noble concubines, and the older princesses and older princes were all there. In addition, the crown prince and princess concubine were still holding them and his son Li Jue also Here it is, but the Crown Princess is very tightly packed, and now Li Jue is also being hugged by Li Shimin, teasing her.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and Mrs. Gaoming are almost here, and now they have entered the square of Ganlu Hall!" Wang De said to Li Shimin when he came in at this moment.

"Oh, that's good, let's go!" Li Shimin stood up and handed his grandson to Empress Changsun.

"Prince Concubine, Jue'er Ben Gong, come and hug her, Gao Ming, help the Crown Concubine!" Empress Changsun said to the two of them with a smile.

"Yes, thank you, Queen Mother!" Su Mei was very happy when she heard that, Empress Changsun hugged her and let the ministers meet, which shows that Empress Changsun loves and attaches great importance to this grandson

Soon, Li Shimin and the others arrived at the steps outside the Ganlu Hall, and Wei Hao and the others also arrived at the square. After standing separately, Wang De announced the beginning of the ceremony.
Together with everyone, Wei Hao first gave New Year greetings to Li Shimin, then to Empress Changsun, and then to the prince, princess, and concubines, princesses, and princes. They just clasped their hands and shouted,

After paying their respects, Li Shimin greeted everyone with a smile to go to the Ganlu Hall, where breakfast was already prepared, and Empress Changsun invited the wives to go to the side hall for dinner.

Li Shimin and Li Chengqian called a few princes and dukes to sit on the top. Wei Hao didn't want to go at first, but was called by Li Shimin. In terms of dukes, Wei Hao is now No. 1 in the Tang Dynasty. There must be a place for Wei Hao,

The other princes were separated, and each of them was accompanied by a group of guests, mainly those lords and ministers of the third rank and above in the court, and those of the fifth rank to the third rank were not accompanied by anyone.

"Shen Yong, do you want a drink today?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Wei Hao with a smile and asked, Wei Hao looked at Cheng Yaojin depressed.
