Chapter 1140 Worryless Children

Gu Yun discussed with his father all night, and wrote a memorial overnight, and sent it to the palace early the next morning, and it could be placed on the table in the imperial study before the end of the morning court.

In the early days, Lord Lin Feng, Minister of the Ministry of War, published a book, discussing what Bai Kou said about the exchange of shares yesterday, and the whole hall boiled like an explosion. Kou is honored by the military family, and the ancestors of the Bai family made great contributions to the dragon, and this contribution has blessed future generations, and it will not be wiped out just because of an accident in Bai Yehong's house.

The news that the Ministry of War publicly supported Bai Kou and wanted to further cooperate with her spread wildly throughout the capital as soon as the morning was over.

At the same time, the servants of Bai Kou's family took several carriages and sent them to the shareholders' homes with live ears freshly delivered from the farm yesterday. Work, I haven't shown up for several days, it's time for the chief shopkeeper to come forward to appease people.

After the early court, the sage ordered Fu Yin to speak in the imperial study, and asked him how the trial of the case of thieves breaking into the Xianbugou factory at night was going, whether those thieves acted alone or were ordered by someone must be explained.

Fu Yin took out a copy of the confession with a serious face, Eunuch Xi hurriedly took it with both hands solemnly, turned around and gently placed it on the imperial case.

The sage put one hand on the confession, flicked his fingers a few times, did not open it and read it on the spot, but talked with Fu Yin for a while before allowing him to report back to the Yamen director.

The imperial study room became quiet, but the sage pushed the confession aside, and began to review the memorials first, still habitually looking at the names first, and turned to Gu Yun's book, opened it, and saw that it was a counter-report to the Shi family in the capital. Suspected of deceiving the emperor, after a large number of weaving households were lost, they were actually unable to undertake large orders from the imperial court, and were no longer qualified to be imperial merchants, so they requested to revoke their qualifications as imperial merchants.

The sage Zhu approved a word of approval and transferred it to the household department for processing.

After reviewing a few more memorials, a servant came in with a happy face and told Bai Kou's servants to send fabric samples to the East Palace with a piece of fresh white fungus. Now the things are in the Queen's Palace, and they didn't dare to send them directly to disturb.

The sage himself has never seen what a fresh white fungus looks like. Hearing the news, the dragon was overjoyed and ordered lunch to be served in the queen's palace. They are all there, and the fresh white fungus is placed by the ventilated window, and you can see it at a glance when you enter the door.

"Oh, so this is what fresh white fungus looks like! Today is an eye-opener, an eye-opener!"

The sage stood in front of the white fungus, looked left and right, circled around the table, and sniffed the fragrance carefully like appreciating flowers.

"Well, it's like a flower, and it has a floral fragrance. How long can this fresh one last? Tomorrow, I want to get it in the morning and let all the civil and military officials learn more."

"Grandfather, Bai Kou said in the letter that we don't know how to take care of the fresh white fungus after it leaves the fungus room. It's best to cook and eat it for two or three days at most, otherwise it's a pity that it will die." Princess Jingyun held his grandfather's arm. arm, said the man quickly.

"Well, it's just right, we'll be done with the rarity tomorrow morning, so let's cook it and taste what the fresh white fungus tastes like."

The sage was happily supported by his granddaughter to sit down and rest in the central hall. He had just sipped a few sips of tea when he remembered that the white fungus was actually an accessory.

"By the way, didn't you say that Bai Kou sent fabric samples? Have you selected the fabrics for the New Year?"

"Not yet, my eyes are blurred. We can choose from the thick and large sample cloth color books. The gray cloth sent for the model is also the latest product. Their textile factory has a new loom, no wonder we have to wait. It’s been so long, fortunately there is no reminder, otherwise this new style of fabric would not be our first use.”

"Hey, it's amazing. Why is their textile factory always producing new machines? Our old weaving imperial merchant has been doing the same old thing for so many years. We are satisfied with lying down and making money with dyed cloth, and we don't want to make progress." The saint said unhappily After criticizing a few words, I deeply felt that the decision I made before was normal. Since the Shi family is so unmotivated, then don't do it.

"Grandfather, let's talk about Bai Kou, let's not mention those unhappy things, let's see what the gray cloth Bai Kou sent looks like? It's amazing." Emperor Zhenghui cleverly made a gesture to the maidservant. With a wink, someone immediately brought a piece of folded undyed gray cloth.

"Didn't you say yarn-dyed cloth? Is this an ordinary gray cloth? What's so special about it?" The sage touched his grandson's head and looked at the square gray cloth curiously.

"This gray cloth is used to show us the style. We can choose what color we want in that color book. Our eyes were dazzled this morning." Princess Jingyun took the conversation and motioned for two maidservants to come forward and unfold the gray cloth .

As the cloth slowly unfolded, all eyes in the hall were on the saint, with a suppressed smile on his face, to see how long it would take him to discover the specialness of the gray cloth.

The sage saw that the expressions on the faces of the people on the left and right were waiting to see a good show, and immediately became competitive, and his eyes were fixed on the gray cloth.

As the folded gray cloth was finally fully unfolded, the saint was amazed by the size of the gray cloth, and blurted out two words.

"so big!"

Following the sound, the sister and brother of Princess Jingyun took the lead in cheering, which made the queen and princess laugh non-stop.

"Guessed right! Guessed right! Grandpa Huang is amazing! You can tell at a glance!"

The sage laughed loudly, holding his granddaughter in his left hand and grandson in his right hand, touching the heads of the two children, "Two little sycophants, tell me quickly, what's so special about such a big gray cloth?"

"Grandfather, this is a whole piece of cloth. It is a whole piece. The top and bottom are the cloth head and the cloth tail, and the left and right are the width. Look at the width, is it about the size of a bed sheet and quilt cover?"

"A whole piece of cloth?" The sage beckoned the servants to come closer, and stopped other people's reminders. He looked at it carefully for a while before he suddenly realized, "Oh, this is a whole piece of woven cloth with no joints in the middle." The seam is not made of two pieces of cloth! God, it is possible to weave such a wide cloth!"

"Well, Bai Kou said in the letter that this is called wide-width cloth, and the cloth woven by hand on traditional looms is called narrow-width cloth. This is how to distinguish it. From now on, the beam-colored cloth produced by their textile factory will be in this wide width. Cloth is the main business, and the narrow-width dyeing cloth is distributed to other families. The cotton cloth market in Beijing is so big that her family can't afford it, and she doesn't want to eat it. Eating too much alone will cause trouble." Jingyun giggled and leaned on the The grandfather acted coquettishly on his shoulders, "Grandpa, Bai Kou is very powerful, isn't she? As soon as she takes over as the major shareholder of the farm, she will immediately make money in various ways."

"Hmm~ Needless to say? Isn't it well known that Bai Kou is powerful? Her business has gone to the Ministry of War. In the name of the farm, she forcibly grabbed [-]% of the shares in the Ministry of War. Lin Feng and those rough bosses I can't disagree, who told them that they don't have any talents, and they still have to count on Bai Kou to train them."

"Since Bai Kou has to work hard, it doesn't matter if she gets [-]% of it. She is not greedy, it's just [-]% of the dividend, and she doesn't get the bonus alone. There are so many shareholders in the farm, and one person can't get much money." Jing Jing Yun didn't even think about it, and immediately stood by Bai Kou's side.

"I didn't say no, the Ministry of War's self-operated business didn't even have a framework, so Bai Kou put a piece of soup into her own bowl first, but she was the only one with this ability, and the Ministry of War recognized her as a member of the military. There is no other way, she is the only one who can do this business."

"However, the Ministry of War has a big plate, and there will definitely be people who will question how much Bai Kou can help. There will always be people who are jealous of her making money and say sour words and disgusting people."

"Bai Kou's plan was written completely according to the model of the farm, and she revealed her old background for others to see, so that the Ministry of War could follow the example and see how she earned so much money on a thousand acres of land. Yes, if the Ministry of War can't learn anything, then what's the matter with Bai Kou? The students are so stupid, can it all be blamed for the teacher's incompetence?"

"Then it's Bai Kou's turn to lie down and earn money."

"She won't. She exchanges shares with the Ministry of War. She has priority in the business of turning soldiers into civilians in the future, and she earns a share of the bonus soldiers."

"I don't quite understand." The siblings looked at each other, and naturally they couldn't understand this few words.

"Don't worry, this is just an intention, there are still many details to be discussed, the Ministry of Military Affairs, Bai Kou will be a frequent guest in the future."

"Well, how many times has a woman entered the yamen of the Ministry of War, but Bai Kou did it, she is amazing."

"I really want to chat with her, such an interesting topic, there must be many people who want to chat with her."

The siblings sang together, and the saint saw through the children's tricks at a glance.

"What the hell are you two thinking about?"

"Grandpa Huang, will Bai Kou go to this year's Winter Hunt? It was so boring without her last year."

"Why does she have to go? She is a commoner, what identity does she use to participate in the winter hunting?"

"We invite her."

"Then whose tent does she live in?"

"Stay with me!" Princess Jingyun raised her hands high.

"Have you all considered this? Bai Kou also agreed?"

"No, I thought of it on the spur of the moment. Hasn't she been in trouble recently, so I want to take advantage of the winter hunting and ask her to come out to play for a few days to change my mood."

"You are kind, but you all know that Bai Kou has been in trouble recently. There are so many people in the Winter Hunting Camp, who is not curious to have a chat with her? What should you do if you are asked an embarrassing question? Do you want to let her relax or make things difficult for her? ?”

"What embarrassing questions can she have? The most embarrassing thing is to ask when she will get married. Grandpa Huang, how did she and Gu Yun get married? They were scolded so badly."

"Yo? So you're waiting for me here? Two mischievous ghosts~"

"Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang, you love Bai Kou too, don't you? Can you bear to see her become an old girl next year and not get married yet? The Duke of Ye probably won't let Gu Yun procrastinate like this."

"What rumors have you heard?"

"Isn't there always been rumors on the street that there are other women who want to marry Gu Yun? You can't marry Bai Kou here, and there are people who are watching the position of Mrs. Shizi every day. What should they do?"

"Just worry about you~"

"Bai Kou will be seventeen next year. She's an old girl. Why make people laugh for nothing?"

"Okay, okay, invite her to participate in the winter hunting, and then you will know what she and Gu Yun are thinking."

The saint embraces the children with great affection.

"When these two people get married, how many people worry about it, it really doesn't make adults worry at all."
