Lian Qing looked up at Li Qing carefully, and sighed again.

"Mrs. Her eyebrows and eyes are not like your mother, but they are six or seven percent like your grandmother."

Li Qing only smiled at Lian Qing and sighed nostalgia. Lian Qing also laughed and patted her knees gently.

"I am older and talk more. If I don't talk about this, I don't have to look for the money manager outside, just Banxia."

Li Qing raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Lian Qing as he asked. Lian Qing continued:

"Banxia has great talent in accounting. Although he talks little and has a dull face, he knows it very well. The wife also knows that since she was a child, Mutong, Banxia, ​​Su Ye and Sangzhi were four. Mutong was a ghost spirit and loved to tease people the most. Su Ye and Sangzhi suffered a lot of losses in his hands, but he suffered countless losses in his hands."

Li Qing nodded with a smile.

"I know, even now, Mu Tong dares not tamper with Banxia. I am not worried about Banxia's scheming ability, but because of this money house, I don't want people to guess who the boss is. If Banxia comes forward, will it?"

"No, Madam, don't worry. Banxia has been in charge of our account. He is so kind. He rarely shows up. Even if one or two have seen him, it doesn't matter. If he manages the money shop in the future, he doesn't want to show up. His temperament is just as mysterious as he does."

Lian Qing explained gently, Li Qing nodded with a smile,

"Okay, Uncle Qing will go back and tell him. The main account of the money house is placed in Jinchuan Mansion. There is no need to hurry up. Do it step by step. Collect the silver in the account book bit by bit, take back all the money and put it in the money house for capital and flow."

"In the past, Lian's money house was called Juhai Money House. Did the wife named her money house?"

"No, Uncle Qing gives you a name."

Li Qing bent his eyes and smiled. Lian Qing's eyes flashed with light, and a little excitement appeared on her face.

"The word "Hai" is a taboo. Otherwise, our money house is called Juyuan Money House. Is it appropriate to see, Mrs.?"

"Juyuan, okay, this name is the best, just use this one."

Li Qing said with a smile,

"There is no need to ask anyone to ask the bank's signature. If Uncle Qing still has the handwriting of his grandfather or mother in his hand, let's see if he can make up these words, just use this."

Lian Qing nodded and agreed, breathed a long sigh, and then smiled with satisfaction. Li Qing only smiled at him with a smile, without saying anything. After a while, Lian Qing lowered his smile and whispered:

"I will go back to discuss with Banxia when I have any questions. Come and ask my wife for advice. I have some ideas about the Shen family. I have recently gained some insights."

"oh,"

Li Qing's face became solemn, Lian Qing frowned slightly and whispered:

"The Shen family's business is very wide, and the wife also knows that the Shen family's biggest support is the Donghai Salt Farm. I have asked someone to ask carefully. Now the person in charge of Donghai Salt Farm is Shen Zhiyuan, Shen Qi, the younger brother of Shangshu Shen. Shen Shangshu has four brothers in this room. Shen Shangshu is the eldest son of the second son, Shen Zhiyuan and the third son Shen Zhiqiang are illegitimate children. The biological mother was originally the personal girl of the old man Shen. I heard that she has been serving Mr. Shen since she was a child. Mr. Shen has always treated her differently and has a very good relationship. When Shen Zhiyuan was nine years old, his biological mother died of illness. Not long after, the third son Shen Zhiqiang was also illegitimate children. The fourth son Shen Zhihong was also illegitimate children. His biological mother was originally the maid of the legitimate mother.

I heard that Shen Zhiyuan was extremely smart since childhood, but his temper was a bit strange. After the Minister of Shangshu Chen Enyin entered the officialdom, Shen Zhiyuan took over the Shen family's salt farm. Over the years, he joined forces with the two brothers Shen Shangshu, and the Shen family has become more and more prosperous in recent years."

Li Qing listened carefully and frowned. Lian Qing looked at Li Qing, paused, and then said:

"Shen Zhiyuan and his wife have deep affection, no concubines, nor do they have a maid with a wife. They have three sons and two daughters. The eldest son is seventeen years old this year. They have just become married at the end of last year. They are the eldest daughter of the Ma family guarding Ansi City. The eldest daughter is fifteen years old this year and have not yet been engaged. The second son is fourteen years old this year, the third son is ten years old this year. The youngest is a daughter, eight years old this year."

Li Qing frowned and listened, thought for a moment, and asked in a low voice:

"Ansi City guards the Ma family. Is this marriage Shen Qingye's idea?"

"It seems like, I asked someone to inquire, but I didn't find out anything. Shen Zhiyuan doesn't usually live in the old house in Beijing because he has to take care of the salt farm. The family has always lived in Guangping City on the North Sea. Last month, Shen Zhiyuan's wife Zhou took her children back to the old house in Beijing. I heard that it was for the second son to go to school and the third son to become a disciple. However, I was afraid that it was the real thing that I wanted to find a suitable family for my eldest daughter."

Li Qing nodded slowly, lowered his head and thought for a while, looked up at Lian Qing, and said with a little sadness:

"Uncle Qing, I have always been reluctant to fight with anyone, but I just don't want to be ruthless and attack innocent and innocent children. How can I finish my eggs when I break the nest?"

Li Qing slowly raised his hand, looked at the white and transparent fingers, and sighed slowly after a while, and said with a dull voice that was not ups and downs:

"Since that's the case, we will find a way to ask the fourth prince to go to the Shen family to propose marriage. The two of them are quite matched. Shen Qingye must be willing to let this cousin marry the fourth prince. If this is the battle in the capital, the third prince's line has long been defeated. It's just a fight between the eldest prince and the second prince. Shen Qingye must have thought of pulling the third prince and the fourth prince over, even if it's only a little bit possible. If he can marry the fourth prince, it will not be a bad thing."

Lian Qing was stunned for a moment, and a confused look flashed across her face. Li Qing looked at Lian Qing and explained with her eyes down:

"I'm just gambling. Shen Zhiyuan and his wife really love their children. Shen Zhiyuan and his wife are deeply in love, so the family must be extremely harmonious. Such a family must love their children very much. Few people are willing to give up their children for any benefit. If Shen Zhiyuan and his wife are really like this, Shen Qingye's temper has never been willing to think about others, so there will be a chance for this matter."

Lian Qing listened to Li Qing's explanation and nodded suddenly.

"I understand, that fourth prince...ah, whoever loves children, will parents marry their daughter to such a person?"

"Oh, I just think about whether I can think about it anymore. The Fourth Prince only loves male style. He is romantic and has many concubines, and is not much bad."

Li Qing said lightly, Lian Qing was suffocated, shook her head gently, and smiled bitterly,

"Mrs. My wife's idea is really different from others."

Li Qing lowered his eyes, Lian Qing looked at Li Qing, opened his mouth, and swallowed it back. There was always the first time this happened, Lian Qing asked with a smile:

"For the Fourth Prince, I'm afraid that Master will continue to give orders."

"Well, I'll talk to you tonight."

"The movements in the capital must also be done by the spy in Zhao Yong's hands. This matter?"

"Well, let me tell you together that these things, family affairs are linked to state affairs, and it is not clear that we can't tell you clearly. On our side, Uncle Qing is paying attention to the movement of the salt market and see if we can roughly calculate the Donghai Salt Field, the well salt in Jindi, and the mineral salt in Handi, each accounting for a few percent of the mineral salt in Handi. The mineral salt in Handi is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Revenue. It is best to send someone to the spot to see if the salt in the East China Sea is broken, can we make up for the vacancy?"

Lian Qing was stunned,

"Mrs. is about to cut off the salt from the East China Sea? This is not easy to deal with."

"I just think about it this way. I have no idea about it yet. But the salt from the East China Sea is being taken out for a day, and the Shen family's silver can flow in in white and it will always be cut off."

Li Qing said slowly with some rigidity, Lian Qing frowned and nodded slowly.

The two discussed for a while before Lian Qing got up and left, went to the front yard for dinner, and set off for a trip back to Pingyang Mansion.

At the east gate of Pingyang Mansion, a man who looked like a man sat in the teahouse next to the city gate, staring at the city gate. He saw the chief servant guarding Lian Qing into the city, and hurriedly threw a few copper coins on the table, turned around and ran out, and went back to the Zhang Mansion to report the message.

Lian Qing returned to Dengcao Hutong. Soon after, the servant at the door came in to report that the old master of the Zhang family and Uncle Zhang asked him to see Mr. Lian.

Lian Qing was slightly stunned, and hurriedly greeted him with a smile. The three of them politely saw the greeting. Lian Qing respectfully asked Old Master Zhang to enter the main house, and then asked Old Master Zhang to sit on his head and serve tea before sitting with him, and said politely.

Old Master Zhang laughed and said cheerfully. After talking for a while, Old Master Zhang signaled to Uncle Zhang slightly. Uncle Zhang took out a small box, handed it over with both hands, and said with a smile:

"I heard that Mr. Lian wanted to find a good jade, but our mansion took it. Mr. Lian looked at it. If he could live a favorable life, just keep it for fun."

Lian Qing took the box politely and opened it. He saw a palm-sized piece of jade pendant with a very simple and lively carving. Some ancient rust faintly appeared on the jade, which seemed even more calm and long-lasting. Lian Qing was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly closed the box, pushed it back, and said with a smile:

"It's too expensive to meet such ancient jade. Even Qing, a slave, wouldn't have such a blessing? I'll take it back, and I won't dare to take it back."

Old Master Zhang laughed,

"I am also a cheerful man, why do you say anything valuable or not? We Korean men only look at friendship, and money is external things. No matter how valuable it is, how valuable it is, how valuable it is to be more valuable than our friendship?"

Lian Qing also laughed,

"What the old master taught is that no matter how valuable this jade is, it is not as valuable as our friendship. It's just that Lian Qing is a slave after all, and the other side of the wife can't explain it. Please be considerate of it."

The corners of Mr. Zhang's eyes moved slightly, and he raised his eyes to signal Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang hurriedly smiled and took out another red sandalwood box, and held it in front of Lian Qing. Mr. Zhang coughed gently, lowered his voice and said:

"Please look at this box, I want to ask Mr. Lian to submit it to his wife. Zhang family, I hope to attach the horse's tail."

Lian Qing was stunned and opened the box. He saw that there was a thin account book and more than a dozen land deeds in the box. (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in. There are more chapters, support the author and support genuine reading!)
