Chapter 12. The first pot of gold

"This treasure mirror is hard to find. Even those Espanyols are extremely precious treasures. Brother Mao, you really want to take action!"

Qian Zeng's words came from sincerity. Nowadays, not to mention the East, the glass mirrors in the place are treasures. Only the Republic of Venice was produced. Venice once gave it to France as a state gift. The queen was moved by it. I wonder how many French women born romantic don't hesitate to dedicate their bodies to a small mirror and emptied the last franc in their lover's pocket.

It was not until decades after the Ming Dynasty was destroyed that the French smuggled out of the glass island of Venice, and the mirrors gradually became widespread and cheap in the European continent. This is also a luxury, but it is not so expensive.

However, when she thought that her family still had four sides, and when Qian Zeng looked like a rich young man, Su Yi's little mouth couldn't help but twitch to the side. She saw all the cost of Mao Jue's mirror. Even if he was generous and rewarded Xuan Kong's old Taoist twenty taels, it was only thirty taels in total. Such a thing made Qian Zeng fooled Qian Zeng. Su Yi's admiration for Mao Jue increased to a higher level, like the long river, the waves were endless.

Especially Mao Jue's bragging next made her laugh.

He was really worried about the country and the people, Mao Jue shook his head in a sigh.

"Indeed, this mirror is a treasure mirror. It has used up all the coral purple trees in my Mao mansion, Funing Amber, Liaohe Dongzhu and Koryo's mountain ginseng that came from the fire. It took 749 days to condense this side. However, gold, pearls and jade, cold, cold, hunger, and hunger! You also know that this island is located at the forefront of the confrontation between Jiannu and North Korea. Whenever you see soldiers holding rusty weapons, wearing thin clothes, trembling in the cold wind, Mao's heart is like a knife!"

Holding the mirror towards the sky, Mao Jue really took out the spirit of performing a drama in the school club and sighed sadly.

"How can there be a complete egg when the nest is destroyed! Once the mountains and rivers are not guarded, no matter how precious the treasure is, it is not enough to make wedding clothes for others? It is better to take it out and exchange it for a few more stones of food and a few winter clothes, which can also slightly alleviate the pain of soldiers guarding the border and stand firm for the Ming Dynasty! Then the value of the treasure mirror is reflected!"

"Brother Mao Gao Yi! Qian felt inferior!"

He was fooled and stunned. After a while, Qian Zeng was really moved that way, and he held his fists with his head in a siding position.

"However, if you talk about the officials in the court, if you have the same mind as Brother Mao, how could the current situation in Liaodong be as good as today?"

Holding back the laughter, Suyi's little face turned red, showing a strange expression. However, after praising her, Qian Zeng lowered her head and hesitated for more than half a minute, and finally gritted her teeth and hugged Mao Jue heavily.

"Brother Mao, Qian has a reluctant request. If Brother Mao trusts Qian, the mirror will be handed over to Qian. This month, Qian will take a boat back to Shandong, then take the canal back to Jiangnan in Shandong, and return to Jinling, Yangzhou. This treasure mirror will definitely be sold at a price! As autumn comes, Qian will take the autumn grain boat back to the north and offer the silver as much as possible!"

"this……"

To be honest, Mao Jue took money away with a mirror, and Mao Jue didn't lose much, only one or two taels of money. But if someone fooled him, he felt uncomfortable, right? Besides, Mao Jue wants to use money now. What if Yuan Chonghuan comes first after autumn?

However, Mao Jue only knows Qian Zeng's path now, and it is not enough not to gamble. After hesitating for a moment, Mao Jue suddenly leaned forward and asked.

"Can Brother Qian get some southern goods for Mao?"

"this……"

This request made Qian Zeng feel a little embarrassed. After hesitating, he shrugged: "It's okay to walk the Grand Canal from Jiangnan. Qian just ran errands, but it was difficult to send it from Denglai to Pi Island. He also needed to challenge the former general's road to invasion!"

Mao Jue couldn't help scratching his head, asking Mao Wenlong for something. He was also a little scared, but after taking a gamble, the bicycle turned into a motorcycle. After hesitating, he still nodded with a sharp tongue.

"I'll do this! In addition, I'm worried about Brother Qian, and Mao was also disgusted. No matter how much Brother Qian takes to do this, 10% of this Beiyangjing will be given to Brother Qian as Xie Yi. Brother Qian must not refuse! In the next year, Mao may have a new Beiyangjing, and he will have to worry about Brother Qian!"

Of course, I was eager to accept it. Mao Jue hit the stairs, and Qian Zeng followed the boat and held his fists in a "shameful" manner.

"Since that's the case, Qian is ashamed of it!"

"There's one more thing!"

"Oh? Brother Mao, please speak!"

Speaking of this, Mao Jue's face also became strange. In Qian Zeng's curious eyes, he grunted for a long time before bowing.

"I wonder if Brother Qian, can you borrow some money from Mao?"

"My father is really too..."

This matter really has nothing to do with Mao Wenlong. Mao Jueqian was simply because Mrs. Shen had all his expenses stuck, but it was obvious that Qian Zeng immediately showed a smirk like a slutty boy knows you, and nodded and smiled.

"Brother Mao, I understand that before going to business, I was also struggling by my father. Whenever I want to imitate the sages of the Wei and Jin dynasties, I suffer from shortage of money!"

…………

The meal was a meal that made the guests and guests enjoyed it. The money was taken away directly in the mirror and wrapped several layers of silk, which made me scream that the frame was too shabby and I had to change it when I went back. Mao Jue was holding a heavy box and carrying a happy plain clothes, and happily returned to Mao's mansion.

"Wow!!!"

Under the candlelight, the girl Suyi's eyes also flashed with golden light. A sandalwood box, a neat silver ingot, a total of twenty ingots, four hundred taels! It was placed in two stacks. Suyi had never seen so much silver in her life, and she kept squeezing the air conditioner.

However, Mao Jue became much calmer. It’s not that he doesn’t like money. If it were a thick box of RMB, his eyes would probably be rounder than Su Yi’s. However, he hadn’t spent a few times on silver, and his senses became much weaker. He pulled out a ingot from the box, and Mao Jue pushed it lightly in front of her in Su Yi’s surprised eyes.

"Hey, for you!"

"Me? No, no! Young Master, I can't take it. Young Master, this is too expensive, I..."

"Don't talk nonsense to the young master. Isn't men spending money on women? Because I have implicated you for several years and have not had a monthly salary. This time I buy some rouge and water powder and make two new clothes. I'm happy to see it. Let's talk too much, be careful with family rules!"

"Also, this thing is given to you!"

This time, Su Yi was really dizzy. Just now, Money used to be a baby, and she was worth tens of thousands of taels of gold. As soon as she reached out, Mao Jue gave her a slap.

"Young Master! This..."

"I don't need anything that women use, young master, I'll give you this side. I'll ask Wen Mutou to carve a few frames tomorrow, and that's for the eldest lady, and this is for the master!"

He had to find a way to trick him and deal with Mao Wenlong. Mao Jue was really unsure. He didn't know whether this mirror could bribe the old man. As he weighed it, he hesitated.

However, Suyi was moved to the extreme. Her big eyes were affectionate and looked at Mao Jue waterily, and her voice was already sweet.

"Young Master, Su Yi, Su Yi can't repay..."

Such a girl's voice has reached the point where she can push her voice. Unfortunately, Mao Jue is a real virgin. She doesn't understand the charm and has never had a partner. She completely ignored Su Yi's shimmering waves and shook her head. He raised his hand and said with a smile in Su Yi's exclamation.

"Whatever you report is not? You are mine. There are so many reports. Just serve the young master in the future. Now I clean up and prepare to go to bed!"

I used mirrors these two days, but the small building was messy, but this answer was not bad. With a red face, the girl lit her little head in a slight squirming manner.

"By the way, young master! We have five mirrors, why don't you give them all to Mr. Qian and ask him to go to Jiangnan to take action, that's hundreds of thousands of taels!"

While packing up his things, he asked curiously while wearing plain clothes. Mao Jue, who was tidying up his desk, immediately smiled.

"Scarcity is precious. You should have heard of Suyi. If I took out all five mirrors at once today, it would be less valuable! By the way, starting tomorrow, I won't make mirrors. We should never disclose the process of making mirrors. Suyi to anyone!"

"Don't worry, young master, I saved it! However, that young master is quite righteous and willing to run around for you, Master! You will still cost more than 400 taels of silver at one move!"

"Haha, be righteous!"

Speaking of this, Mao Jue suddenly showed a helpless expression.

"The world is bustling, all for profit, and all for profit! If you think he is so kind and has the way to pass the customs, he can make money on Pi Island, sell it to North Korea or Jiannu, and get a lot of money back. If he doesn't have enough interests, would he be so arrogant to be with me?"

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore, go to bed!"

After losing the things, he left his worries for tomorrow. Mao Jue simply yawned and walked towards his bed on the second floor. However, when he heard this, the simple-clothed face turned red again. Looking at Mao Jue's shoes thrown in and the bed that he pulled off, the girl tugged his hands together.

Is the young master hinting at something?

Go! Or not?
