System, help me be an empress

Chapter 5 How Many Rich Merchants Are There in Jiangnan

Although Xu Youxi's childish voice was childish, no one underestimated the posture in front of him: "Nurse Wang looks down on Jin Yiwei's ability? Do you think that no one but yourself knows that you helped your granddaughter escape to the frontier a year ago? The matter of opening a restaurant. Your lord Yu has already investigated all these messy things in your family. "

Yu Xuejing:?

And this matter, he...knows, right?
"Princess, please let You You go, she is still a child." Nanny Wang burst into tears.

Yu Xuejing couldn't help seeing Wang Momo who was rushing forward, and kicked the person away. Damn, what dirty things are not far away from the little princess.

"My lord, send Mother Wang away safely."

For Wang Momo, her granddaughter is the bottom line. Although Xu Youxi didn't say anything at all, it was enough to drag down Wang Momo's psychological bottom line.

How ruthless Jin Yiwei's methods are, Xu Youxi knows very well that Wang Momo will definitely not end well if she falls into Xue Jing's hands.

But so what!
As for why she didn't do it on the way, she had to drag it to the south of the Yangtze River to do it, Xu Youxi can roughly guess the reason.

Although Princess Anguo lives in the south of the Yangtze River, her son-in-law has been stationed at the southern border all year round and holds a heavy army.Once I die at Princess Anguo, Emperor Chongjiu will more or less have a grudge against his sister and brother-in-law, and the scheming people behind are instigated by some accidents, and maybe the two sides will fight each other first. It just happened to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Xu Youxi sighed, this matter should be taken as a lesson, the value of loyalty is definitely not static, she still needs to observe the people around her more when she is fine.

Alas, the great emperor is always so lonely.

……

A few days later, Xu Youxi's illness was completely cured.

Started to wander around Princess Anguo's mansion.

[Ding, the check-in of Jingyitang has been completed, earning points*1]

[Ding, the check-in at the racecourse has been completed, earning points*1]

[Ding, the check-in of the Hundred Flowers Corridor has been completed, earning points*1]

[Ding, the Book Pavilion check-in has been completed, earning points*1]

I don't know if it's because the princess mansion is not as big as the palace, and the points for checking in at the place have been reduced by half.

Seeing the shrinking points, Xu Youxi made up her mind. Although she lost the points, she must not lose the chance to get rich!
"Really, are there many wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan?"

Jia Zhenzhen is the daughter of the chief steward of the eldest princess's mansion. She grew up in the mansion since she was a child. She just turned 12 years old this year, and was arranged by the eldest princess to take care of her daily life by Xu Youxi's side.

In order to protect Xu Youxi's safety, except for the few people brought by Xu Youxi who know her true identity, in the eyes of others, she is the only daughter of the son-in-law's younger sister who died young, a cousin who came to seek refuge.

"Miss Biao, of course there are too many! More than half of the wealthy businessmen in our Daqian are in Jiangnan, and there are rumors outside that the wealth accumulated by Shen, Liu, Zhuang, and Zhang alone is worth half of the national treasury." .”

"It's an exaggeration."

"Right, I also think it's too exaggerated!" Jia Zhenzhen said longingly, "It is rumored that in the national treasury, there are rare treasures that have been collected for hundreds of years! No matter how rich a rich businessman is, he can't compare with the emperor."

"Ah."

Just relying on the treasury that is cleaner than the toilet? !

"You just said that Shen, Liu, Zhuang, and Zhang are in business?" Xu Youxi asked curiously.

"The Shen family has a lot of weird treasures, and it is said that they are all shipped from overseas, such as the ivory chopsticks used by the eldest princess, spices that are used in our house every day; the silk, satin and porcelain of the Liu family are sold all day long. The Zhuang family owns a lot of fields, and the farmers often say that they work hard every year to pay the rent to the Zhuang boss. Compared with the first three families, the Zhang family has a slightly worse family background, but the Zhang family is more or less the same as the first assistant. My lord is close, someone backs me up, alas, even the governor sent by the capital wants to give the Zhang family some face."

"But it's true, you said so much, but you didn't tell me what kind of business the Zhang family is in."

Jia Zhenzhen pursed her lips, wondering: "Miss Cousin, you are too young, anyway, their Zhang family is not doing a good business."

Xu Youxi stared at her expression for a while, and seeing that Jia Zhenzhen's ears were red from anxiety, he suddenly asked, "Is the Yangzhou skinny horse the property of the Zhang family?"

Jia Zhen really didn't expect Miss Biao to know such things when she was only five or six years old, and the shock on her face was completely fake: "Miss Biao, you..."

Xu Youxi made a "shh" gesture: "Don't worry, I won't say anything. But, how do you really know so many things? Didn't you grow up in the mansion?"

"Miss, you underestimate me too much. Besides, people in Jiangnan know about these things." Jia Zhenzhen said with a smile, "But I didn't expect you, Miss Biao, to be interested in these things."

"Really, let's go shopping."

"Miss Biao, do you want to buy something? I'll get someone to prepare the carriage and silver taels."

"If you don't want to buy anything, just go out and have a look on the street." Xu Youxi waved to Yu Xuejing who was following behind her, "Come out with us."

"Yes, Miss Biao." Yu Xue Jing changed into a black robe today, even though he was clothed in commoner clothes, it was hard to hide his nobility.

The street is bustling, with shops with unique decorations on both sides. There are also small stalls set up by small vendors selling everything from rouge jewelry to fabric sachets.

Yu Xuejing walked in front to open the way for the two little girls, just like the eldest brother who takes his sister out at home.

It was also rare for Jia Zhenzhen to go to the street, his face was full of excitement from beginning to end, Xu Youxi also secretly observed the surroundings, but the more he looked, the more frustrated he became: "These wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan have almost monopolized the profitable business, and there are still more What is the way to make money?"

"Make money?" Yu Xuejing said in surprise, "Mr. Biao, how could you have such an idea, you don't need..."

Jia Zhenzhen immediately cooperated with Yu Xuejing and shook his head nervously: "Miss Biao, don't think that those businessmen are so good! They are ranked at the bottom of the list of scholars, farmers, businessmen, and the court has a rule that one person in the family should do business. This family is not allowed to wear silk clothes; if it was a few years ago, the children of businessmen and merchants would not be allowed to test their merits."

"Under Putian, could it be the land of the king; on the coast of the land, could it be the king's ministers. In other words, everything in the world belongs to the saints." Yu Xue Jing tried to tell Xu Youxi that the whole world belonged to him while thinking that he could not reveal his identity as a princess. It's all yours, so why bother?

"You can read the "Book of Songs", but there is no reason to read half of it. Under the sky, is it the land of the king; on the shore of the land, is it the king's ministers; if the doctors are not equal, I am a sage." Xu Youxi finished the second half of the sentence, " After reading the entire article, it is clear that it expresses complaints about the 'unevenness of doctors'."

"It is said in the Book of Songs that some people sit comfortably at home, while others devote themselves to the kingdom; Some people go for walks and gossip, while others have to do everything."

"The full text is so long, but there are only two sentences that are talked about by the world. It would be too much to say that the world took them all out of context, but the person who first publicized these two sentences must be flattering. It's ridiculous. Later generations actually worshiped it as the truth.”
