Mingmen Family

Ye Yaming didn't know Tao's little awkwardness.

After Ye Hongrong and others left, she said to Ye Chongming: "Grandfather, we sold tea recipes last year. Although Longjing has become a tribute tea now, our family is not what it used to be, but there are always some people who want to trample us down. Go down, so that you can lift yourself up."

Ye Chongming's heart suddenly rose: "What do you think?"

"I'm going to make some silver pots, and it's not good to let people know about it. Can you find a suitable silversmith?"

Ye Chongming understood as soon as he heard it.

What else can a silver pot be used for?Of course it is fried tea.

Ye Chongming didn't know why the tea was fried in a silver pot, but what Ye Yaming said was right.

He only asked: "Is there any requirement for this pot?"

Ye Yaming shook his head: "No, as long as it can be made into a pot shape, it doesn't need to be too delicate."

"That's easy." Ye Chongming said, "I'll just ask your uncle to let us have an apprentice silversmith."

The Mei family runs a bank, so they naturally have exchange business.Sometimes the fineness of the collected silver is not good, so it has to be purified, or some silver ingots have to be made for others.They also opened a jewelry store, which will process gold and silver into jewelry for sale, which can be regarded as an expansion business.

So he raised a group of silversmiths.These silversmiths are all born in the family, and the craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation, and the deeds are all in the hands of the Mei family.

If Ye Yaming's request is high, it will be a bit difficult.After all, there are plenty of good silversmiths, and the Mei family may not give them.But her requirements are so low, it is enough to just transfer a silversmith apprentice.

"It would be great to buy an apprentice silversmith. If it's not possible, just ask them to make a few pots for you. Don't say that it was made by our family."

Ye Chongming nodded: "Leave this to me, don't worry."

Ye Yaming stood up: "I have to go to Lu's house. I'll take people there in a while, and I'll live there today. I'm going to visit Mrs. Qi tomorrow."

"Go." Mrs. Ye agreed with her approach.

The main reason is that Ye Yaming didn't have any reaction to pregnancy. He ate Ma Maxiang and slept well. The only reaction was to retch twice in the morning and feel a little drowsy.Otherwise, Mrs. Ye is really worried about her going out to live.

When Ye Yaming got married, she brought a group of servants to the capital, and she brought them back this time.There is no shortage of waiters and cooks around.It's not inconvenient to live in Lu's residence.

"You are Mrs. Lu now. You don't even come to stay for one night when you come back. The servants over there don't think you are such a master. If you need something or someone, just tell me, and I'll send someone to send it over there."

"There should be no shortage." Ye Yaming said.

At that time, when making furniture, they made a pair for this house, and everything was complete.

"I'll ask someone to bring you some rice, noodles, and vegetables. There are some in the mansion over there, but they are not fresh." Mrs. Ye said.

Ye Yaming did not object to this point.

She immediately led the people out and headed for Lu's house.

Bai Rui took a carriage to Qi's mansion, and sent greetings to Mrs. Qi for Ye Yaming.

As a junior, Ye Yaming returned to Lin'an, always going to visit this aunt.When she got married, Mrs. Qi worried a lot.But it's impolite to visit rashly, send a post first, and then visit tomorrow.

The gatekeeper was still Lao Song's first family, seeing Ye Yaming's return, the whole family was a little nervous.

Ye Yaming introduced Xu Zan, Bai Rui, Zi Yuan and the people from the small kitchen she brought back to both parties.

She said to Old Song: "What do you usually do, what do you still do now, don't worry about the rest. I will send two boys to take turns guarding the gate with you."

"Besides, sometimes I will live in Ye's house. If I don't come back to live, I will let the servants tell you. When you don't come back, just keep an eye on the door."

The old Song head should be yes again and again.

When his wife Li Shi heard that Ye Yaming was going to live in Ye's house, she looked up at her, then lowered her head, not daring to make a sound.

Ye Yaming lived in Lu's house that night, and got up the next day to visit Mrs. Qi in Qi's mansion.

Mrs. Qi was very happy to see her, asked about their situation in the capital and Lu Guanyi's situation, and kept her for lunch before letting Ye Yaming come back.

Ye Yaming did not tell Mrs. Qi about her pregnancy.

Mrs. Qi knew that she would definitely stop her from going up the mountain to make spring tea.Ye Yaming didn't want to make trouble with Mrs. Qi because of this matter.

Moreover, there is still a saying in the world that it is not appropriate to speak out about three months of pregnancy.Even if Mrs. Qi knew about it afterwards, she couldn't say that she did something wrong.

In the next month, Ye Yaming was really recuperating.As long as there are no major issues in Beijing and Lin'an, Ye Chongming will not let anyone tell Ye Yaming. Although Ye Yaming knows, he doesn't care.

When it was time to make Mingqian tea, Ma delivered a message: "Wang Kuan has partnered with Zhennan Wangfu and plans to make Longjing tea this year. I don't know what the hell they are planning. They are stricter in prevention, and the specific situation is unknown." Find out."

Ye Yaming was taken aback: "Wang Kuan? Lin'an City? How did he hook up with the Zhennan Prince's Mansion? Didn't Wang Kuan buy the secret tea recipe? How could he make Longjing tea?"

If she remembers correctly, this Wang Kuan was excluded from the sale of tea recipes at Ye's family because he tried to steal Longjing tea recipes from Ye's family through repeated means. up.

"It should be that the Zhennan Prince's Mansion wanted to make things difficult for you, so they sent people to Lai'an to inquire, and finally found out that Wang Kuan didn't get along with us, so they offered to cooperate with him. As for how Wang Kuan got the secret tea recipe, I'll call someone later. Check it out."

As soon as he heard that Wang Kuan was hooking up with the Zhennan Palace, he came over to report in a hurry, and he hadn't had time to investigate the details.

"Check out those who have no strength but have bought the secret recipe for tea making, and have been in close contact with Wang Kuan recently." Ye Yaming said.

Those who are capable will definitely not sell tea recipes, and one more competition means less money.Those who have no strength want to resell the tea making recipes to make up for their losses.

"Yes." Ma Yun agreed and went to check immediately.

It is easy to investigate when there is someone who is suspicious, and he came to tell Ye Yaming the next day: "We found it, it is Zhou Qingsong. Wang Kuan paid 6 taels of silver, and Zhou Qingsong sold four masters who can make Longjing tea to him. He was sold by the Zhennan Prince's Mansion shortly after Wang Kuan was approached."

As he spoke, he reported the names of the four tea makers.

Ye Yaming turned to Qing Zhi and said, "Go and ask the second master to come."

If I have something to ask, she should have gone there.But if she did this, Ye Hongsheng and Yin Shi would definitely nag her, so she simply asked Ye Hongsheng to come.

She lives in Ye's house, and the yards of the second rooms are all next to each other. Ye Hongsheng will arrive soon.

When Ye Yaming told him about the matter, Ye Hongsheng frowned and said, "I have an impression of these four people. One of them, Qin Sixiang, is very talented in making tea. After learning about it, the tea he made is no worse than mine. At that time, I wanted to keep him, but Zhou Qingsong refused to let him go."
