Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Seeing Taikang's consciousness is that he is determined to call himself her partner and make a fortune together.

She was so domineering, Su Mu only felt a headache for a while, and knew that this little girl Taikang, like her brother Emperor Zhengde, could do anything, really annoyed her, and sued herself in front of Queen Mother Zhang.

That's the unbearable death.

Su Mu is a person with no principles and a good temper.Ever since he made up his mind to become an official, he aspired to be a jester, and he naturally behaved like hello, me, hello, everyone.Besides, politics is an art of compromise, and it is necessary to overcome rigidity with softness when necessary.

He stopped, and sighed intentionally: "Your Highness, it's not that I, Su Mu, don't want to help. It's really a reward for eating the king, and it's a matter of loyalty to the king. It's hard for a minister to be greedy for the treasury of Mo. When the time comes, His Majesty the Emperor will not be happy." Tell me, the land of Ming Dynasty belongs to your Tian family after all, Your Highness. Also, Su Mu has limited talents, so he really can't help you much."

Princess Taikang snorted: "Why are you like this? You are told to find ways to raise money and think of being greedy for money. You really think of this palace as a moth of the country. Could it be possible that if you don't learn from Liu Kong and them, you will think about it when you reach out to Ku Yin?" There is no way out. Also, who are you, Su Mu, Su Ziqiao? You can deceive others but not me. The "One Whip Method" you wrote back then, both the Queen Mother and Long Live thought it was feasible, and praised you as a good financial manager. In the future, when you become a Jinshi, it will be of great use after a few years of experience in the local area. Even they value you, which doesn't explain the problem. I have a way to make money, do you want to listen to it?"

Su Mu: "I would like to hear about its auspiciousness."

Princess Taikang smiled coquettishly: "Now your future father-in-law is in charge of the salt department. Cangzhou only produces salt. If you want to grow hair, you have to make a fuss about the word salt."

"What do you mean?" Su Mu pondered.

Princess Taikang: "This hall is not interesting."

"If you want to smuggle salt, it's too appalling."

"How much can I get for smuggling salt?" Taikang sneered with an expression that didn't match her age: "There are so many princes and royal relatives in my Ming Dynasty. If they all lived on farms and salaries, they would have starved to death long ago. In private , will do some business, as long as it is not in his own name, the court will mostly turn a blind eye."

Su Mu's heart moved, as if he understood Princess Taikang's words: "If you find someone to be a salt merchant, it is not impossible to set up a business name. Since ancient times, salt merchants have been rich and powerful. If they can get the quota from the salt department, they have If you buy Yanyin, you will have endless money in just a few years. Changlu Salt Division sends out several grades of official salt every year, each of which is 20 yuan. It is distributed by nearly a hundred salt merchants. If you participate Nice idea. But..."

He pondered for a moment, and said: "Master Wu of the Salt Division is a scholar, I'm afraid he won't agree. Also, if you really want to be an official salt, it's not convenient for the princess and ministers to come forward. You have to find a suitable candidate. I don't know. Does the princess have someone useful in her mind?"

"No, you can find the candidate by yourself. This princess will get [-]% when the time comes, and you will distribute the other [-]%. You will still find someone by yourself." Princess Taikang yawned when she saw that the cooperation was settled: " There are too many things that happened today, this princess is overjoyed and saddened, physically and mentally exhausted, she needs to rest."

Su Mu smiled wryly: "His Royal Highness doesn't pay a single penny, and half of the money will be shared if you don't spend a little effort."

Princess Taikang smiled coquettishly: "Is she a woman? If you really say something, some people post it next to each other."

"You should still worship under the pomegranate skirt, but that was in the past, and now His Highness has the same reputation as my Su Mu. Now, the scholars in Cangzhou may have a different view of you."

"You..." When Su Mu mentioned the embarrassing incident just now, Princess Taikang's eyes turned slightly red, and she was about to cry.

"Don't, don't cry, it's important to talk about business."

Taikang sobbed and nodded: "There is no need to discuss the fifty-fifty account. As for what you are looking for and what you do to make a living, the hall doesn't care. If something went wrong, I will tell the empress dowager and the emperor. It's up to you." Su Mu has nothing to do. I can still stay in Cangzhou for half a year, and within half a year you have to raise enough money. Go on, that's right... and send a few thousand taels of silver to the Taoist temple later."

Su Mu: "Where do I have so much money?"

……

After breaking up with Princess Taikang, Su Mu still hadn't figured out how to cooperate with her and what business to do.

It's a good idea to set up a business and find someone to be a salt merchant.

There are, however, two problems with this.

First of all, the number of salt merchants in a salt field is limited, and if there is one more person, you have to go to other salt merchants to share part of the salt.And these salt merchants can do such a big business, there must be a big shot behind everyone.If you rush in rashly, if you are not sure, you will touch the cake of some important person, which will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.

Secondly, Mr. Wu has such a strange temper that he can't even see me, Su Mu.

If you can't get into the salt department, how can you get involved in the salt affairs?

After returning to the inn, Su Mu cleaned up his belongings, and there were about 1000 taels of silver left.I asked the proprietress of the inn to send it to Princess Taikang to relieve her urgent needs.

His Royal Highness Taikang is used to being rich, this little money is enough for her to use for two or three months.

If you really don't give money, this little girl will be impatient, and it's hard to guarantee that she won't do something stupid, and then Su Mu will have to wipe her ass.

Seeing the empty pocket, Su Mu smiled wryly. He had a feeling that after traveling to the Ming Dynasty, he made a lot of money, and he fought bravely and forged ahead in this secular world of mortals.But in the end, he didn't live a day for himself.The big and small affairs that he handles are all helping others, people from the Hu family, Wu family, and the emperor's old Zhu family.

Could it be that I am really a nanny?

With a wry smile, he sat in the study and read a few pages, his mind calmed down, and he suddenly thought: the flood is really certain, the court urgently needs money.Mr. Wu has become this transfer envoy, and his superiors will definitely urge him to collect enough money as soon as possible.

To be honest, he didn't think the old man had the ability to find 200 million taels of silver in a short period of time.And most of the people in the yamen will not cooperate with him. When the fire is really imminent, the old man can only rely on me, Su Mu.

Just wait, three to five days at the latest, he will send someone to ask me to be a staff member of the Salt Division.

Thinking of this, Su Mu felt relieved.

In the next few days, Su Mu simply let go of his heart and sat in the study to read.

At this time, Fairy Yizhen plagiarized the poems of "Dream of Red Mansions" and caused a stir in Cangzhou, and even Mei Fugui's reputation was too bad.

Everyone said: "I thought that although Mei Xuanjian was a warrior, he could write good poems. But I didn't think so, they also copied it. You say, Mei Xuanjian and Taoist Yizhen are really stupid. Copying Whoever is not good enough wants to copy Su Ziqiao. Who is Su Mu Su Ziqiao? He is the number one talent in my court, so if I copy him, it will be strange if he is not found out?"

"Also, I don't think Mei Fugui and Yizhen Taoist are clear about each other. He is also a romantic figure. He has his own wife in the countryside, and he is going to marry the daughter of Master Wu of the Yansi. This behavior is really not good. How about it?"

At the same time, through this incident, Su Ziqiao's reputation became more and more famous in Cangzhou.In the past, his reputation was only limited to the capital and scholars, but now he has become the protagonist of the street talk.

Including his old works, they were also sung in the city for a while.

It's just that this reputation has nothing to do with the current Su Mu and the current Mei patrol inspector.

But after this incident, others now look at him with contempt, not as reverent as Su Mu used to be in the inspection department.
