I promise

Chapter 777
"It's not difficult to find a reliable person who can wear jewelry."

Now that she acquiesced, Chang Qianfo could only spare no effort to help her, and said, "My second cousin of the Zheng family is a master at it, and it happens that he just arrived in Luoyang yesterday, so I'll ask him to do it for you."

"Zheng Ze?"

Mu Dian was surprised, "Your second aunt's house... isn't Yangzhou weaving?"

Chang Qianfo laughed, "It's a long story. The ancestors of the second aunt's family did start out by weaving and making clothes. But after getting rich, the children became more knowledgeable and each had their own interests, so they refused to follow the old path of their ancestors. Yes. In the generation of my cousin and grandfather, none of the four sons is willing to go home and inherit the family business.

My cousin's grandfather was the eldest son, so he had no choice but to be dragged back to inherit his father's business.

As for his second grandfather, he loved carpentry since he was a child. He opened his own shop, made furniture, made horse-drawn carriages, and also made boats and boats... In short, the business was very big.

The third master is good at painting, he is a well-known painter in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has a calligraphy and painting shop.

The fourth master paid homage to a famous local goldsmith in Yangzhou as his teacher. He could make gold, silver and jade ornaments, and the work was fast. If the family could not run out, he opened a shop and sold them.There is also a shop in Luoyang.The fourth master doesn't like mundane affairs, so the second cousin helps to take care of them. "

Mu Dian was dumbfounded: The Zheng family is really a strange person.

"So your cousin of the Zheng family was taken away by his fourth grandfather to become a goldsmith?"

"Not all of them." Chang Qianfo laughed, "Second Cousin is introverted, not good at dealing with people, he only loves to study skills, and has learned skills from several grandpas.

It's just that the fourth master has no children, and he wants his second cousin to inherit his mantle, so he is the most diligent in helping him.As time goes on, the second cousin's jewelry making skills are probably more proficient than the family's skills. "

If so, of course the best.

Zheng Zemu Dian has seen it before, although he is a bit rigid, but his eyes are straight, he is definitely someone who can trust important things to each other.

"Your second cousin's craftsmanship should be very expensive, right?" Mu Dianke said, "Don't say that I want to make these jewelry, I will pay whatever he charges."

"If he didn't tell you, how could he do it with his heart." Chang Qianfo blinked and said, "My second aunt is here too."

"what?"

Mu Dian suddenly became uneasy.She knew that Chang Huaijin came to Luoyang to intercede with Chang Jihai about her and Chang Qianfo.

"...No, your third aunt is coming too?"

"Yes." Chang Qianfo smiled, "Third Aunt married in Daliang, which is the closest to Luoyang. I wrote a letter a few days ago to say that I'm leaving, and I should arrive in a day or two."

Mu Dianke's usual eloquence and bravery were gone, and his heart was agitated: The three aunts have come to Luoyang, so they don't want to see her, do they?

Just thinking about it, Chang Qianfo said, "Second aunt said that she wants to see you."

"Of course, it's best to just meet once. It doesn't matter if you don't want to."

Chang Qianfo saw that Mu Dian was nervous, rubbed her head and said, "The aunts will stay here for a while when they come back this time, so don't worry. When will you decide, let Xuanyuan tell me .”

"Oh." Mu Dianke responded obediently.

The candy box is a picture when it is unfolded, and it is another box when it is closed. There is no trace of dismantling at all.

Chang Qianfo showed Zheng Ze a trick, which aroused Zheng Ze's ambition as a carpenter. He unfolded and closed the box a dozen times back and forth, studying the connection between the mortise and tenon of the board and the paper. Two hours passed.

Chang Qianfo smiled and said, "Don't wear off the patterns on it."

"That's why you don't understand." Zheng Ze was immersed in Yuqiang's excitement, "Painting with wood is not easy to preserve. Experienced painters will apply a special layer of glue wax on the surface, which can prevent the ink from drying out after being exposed to moisture. It’s also anti-corrosion and wear-resistant.—It’s hard for a layman to see.”

Chang Qianfo is indeed a layman.

What made him sigh was, what else would Xu Younan not understand?

Later, Ling Fu came and brought a letter from Mo Yichan.

The letter stated that Princess Jianing, the youngest daughter of De Wang Liu Yu, was married by the emperor to Wen Ting, the third son of Wen Changying, the head of the Wen family in Yingshui, and the decree had been issued.

Chang Qianfo heaved a sigh of relief.

These days, he has been worrying about the marriage bestowed by the princess of Jianing, and he has been running around the capital with the Mo family and his son in a hurry, distributing a lot of money, which made Liu Zhuan undecided and never issued an edict. A rich flower fell into Chang's house.

Now that Liu Zhuan has changed his mind and granted Jianing Princess to Wen's family, the matter is finally settled.

It's just that he hasn't figured it out until now: It's so good, why did Liu Zhuan suddenly think of marrying the daughter of the royal family for nothing?
You know, the nobles in Jiankang, especially the royal family, are all self-confident and have a sense of superiority.The Mu family is powerful and the Chang family is rich, attracting people to compete for friendship, but no one dares to mention the marriage of their children.Afraid of being known as greedy for money and power, it would cause ridicule from other nobles.

Does the royal family have no face?
Mo Yichan also gave the answer in his heart.Liu Zhuan wanted to use Chang Jihai's prestige in the world to suppress Mu Cangping's arrogance by marrying Changjiabao. This idea was given to him by Fang Guifei Fang Qingyan.

Everyone knows that Fang Rong's family is in charge of Rong Yi.Fang Qingyan naturally listened to Rong Yi.

Chang Qianfo remembered what Mu Dianke had just told him today—Jin Yanchen let Fang Junyu go for some reason, so there was nothing he didn't understand.

Rong Yi can't do anything about Jin Yanchen, but he can handle Mu Dianke so that she can't marry into the Chang family as she wished.

Later, Liu Zhuan changed his mind and married the Princess of Jianing to Wen Ting, probably not because of Mo Yichan's money management.It was Rong Yi who got a satisfactory result and raised his hands high.

Reminiscent of Rong Yi's series of unrestrained movements when he was resolving the crisis of confrontation between the martial arts and the court a while ago, Chang Qianfo felt a chill running down his back.

In the eyes of Rong Yi and conspirators like Mu Cangping, I am afraid there is no chess game or chess piece that they cannot manipulate.

***
The dormant order from Jin Yanchen still came.

Compared with other places, Luoyang spies received one more order: to accept the awakening of the three Shangjun Huo An.

In other words, Mu Dian could still use those people who stayed in Luoyang in the Ming Palace if he wanted to.

Most of the properties of the Ming Palace in Luoyang were also sold off, and the cash proceeds were not sent out of the city to be stored in the warehouse, and all of them were left to Mu Dianke.

Xu Younan said in the letter that this is the wages paid to Mu Dianke for so many years of hard work, the money has been settled, and there should be no further involvement in the future.

Finally he said: Little Sier, I really miss you.After you left, there was no one to bully, and life was so lonely.

Mu Dian laughed angrily, and felt a little bit of unexplainable sadness inside.

She has always hated Xu Younan and always wanted to escape from them.

Finally escaped now.
