Chapter 137 Ulterior Motives
If Xie Chonghai is chosen, he will not fight against Mrs. Xie again. The most important thing is to stabilize his business. But because they had begged the Liu family before, now it was not up to them to make the decision.
Mr. .
"However, if this happens, the Liu family will also think that we are deliberately using porcelain to threaten us."
Mr. Xie's words touched Xie Chonghai's heart.
"In addition to saying this, we have to think of another way," Old Master Xie said, "Ask the Liu family if they can acquire some new pottery kilns to burn mud stoves."
This Good idea.
Xie Chonghai's eyes lit up: "What father means is..."
Mr. Xie said: "If Liu Erniang agrees to buy a pottery kiln for us, we will ask the dental shop to help us collect it."
The dental shop we use is naturally related to the Liu family. Although this relationship cannot be placed on On the surface, everyone in Damingfu's business community knows this.
With the intervention of these people, there is no need to worry about not being able to buy a pottery kiln.
The things I was deceived by Xie Yuyan before will naturally not happen again.
Xie Chonghai thought it was a good idea. He turned to look at Tian: "You go to the Liu family tomorrow morning and tell Liu Erniang this."
After Ya Xing came in, the money earned from this transaction would naturally be distributed to the Liu family.
Even if the Liu family doesn't like it, it can be used to send away those who work for the Liu family. As long as they do a good job, they can get back all the thousands of dollars they were deceived by Xie Yuyan.
......
Liu Erniang got up in the morning and went to greet her family elders first, then had breakfast with her father and mother, and then returned to her room to study.
She has to prepare more poems and write them with her sisters during the family gathering.
Zhengdan is good, but it's a pity that there aren't many novelties.
Poems are also mostly themed around plum blossoms, snow scenes, and festivals, and I just keep those few poems over and over again.
How can I become more famous? This is something Liu Erniang has been thinking about.
“Where is the second sister?”
A crisp voice sounded.
Jia Siniang, an in-law of the Liu family, walked quickly through the door.
"Second sister," Jia Siniang held something in her hand and said as she walked, "I knew that second sister must be writing. Come on... I'll show you something interesting."
Liu Erniang suddenly thought that when she was at Liu's house, Liu Siniang said that she would have some fun in the near future. Could it be...
"I stayed at Siniang's house last night, and Liu Erlang met Liu Erlang early this morning. Let someone send this to the inner courtyard."
Jia Siniang handed the thing in her hand to Liu Erniang.
It was a larger piece of paper, but the words on it were not written but printed, and it was not a book. On the far right side of the paper were written a few large characters: Damingfu Tabloid.
Liu Erniang subconsciously read out: "Damingfu tabloid."
"Yes, it is the tabloid." Jia Siniang said with great interest, "The things written on it are interesting. Take a look at this The case... is the case of the underworld marriage of the Yang family in Daming Prefecture. It is clearly written in it and is more credible than what we heard in the teahouse. There is also this... case of two families fighting for a son..."
"This husband-murder case is a bit scary, but this woman was originally engaged. After her parents died, she was married to another family by the evil uncle. The woman resisted and refused to obey. When she argued with her husband, she mistakenly pushed her husband down to death. I don't know yet. How does the government office resolve the case? "
"Look here... why did our Daming Mansion suddenly open a water shop and sell lotus root charcoal? It turns out that the lotus root charcoal was not made by the Yang family, but by the Yang family. It’s related to Baode Temple.”
"It is written clearly here that Yang Liulang's wife, Mrs. Xie, went to the temple to deliver incense despite the disaster. The abbot of Baode Temple, Zhiyuan, taught her how to make charcoal." "Xie saw that many people had no need for charcoal fires. , vowed to make lotus root charcoal, so the lotus root charcoal was sold for three cents per pound. "
"Look, behind this incident, there is also an annotation written by the author: Bodhi Compassion. , Buddha charcoal is used as lotus root charcoal. I think this should also be called Buddha charcoal. The holes on it are more like the scars on the monk's head than the lotus roots."
"And...the entrance to the imperial camp. In the market, the most popular food is called Bo Xia Gong. Two large pots are cooked every day. The soldiers in the imperial camp will go there to buy it after training."
"Do you know how to sell this? It’s as big as it can hold. If the market wasn’t too crowded, I’d also like to take a look.”
"Here, let my handlebar type go grab a spoonful and see if it's worth it."
"And here... Look, on the second, third, fifth, and fifteenth day of the lunar month, There is a temple fair at the foot of Baode Temple to celebrate the construction of a new temple in the coming year. It is said that there will be people selling food and selling goods. "
"While digging charcoal in the pagoda forest of Baode Temple, I discovered it. He rang a bell with scriptures written on it. On the second day of this year, six monks rang the bell to pray for blessings.”
“Because Baode Temple is so compassionate, we have to go to the temple to pray there. It must be effective.”
“The most interesting book here is called "The Master's Book of Sutras". Unfortunately, it only contains one paragraph. If you want to read more, you have to wait for a tabloid."
Jia Siniang turned the pages while talking, which made Liu Erniang dazzled.
This time the tabloid published two articles in a row. They were densely written and very interesting at first glance. No matter which one they were, I wanted to read them carefully.
In addition to what Jia Siniang mentioned, Liu Erniang also saw some different notices. The Yang's mine, water shop, and porcelain kiln in Yong'anfang were recruiting workers, and the price was one hundred yuan per day.
Liu Erniang frowned and found another line of small words in front of the tabloid: Seal of Yong'anfang Bookstore.
“Who created this tabloid?”
This is what Liu Erniang is most concerned about.
Jia Siniang thought for a long time before she said: "I heard from Siniang that it seems to be that... the one who suffered the Yang family's underworld marriage case. Thank you Madam for doing it."
Sure enough.
Liu Erniang's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she looked at Jia Siniang: "You wait here, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back."
After saying this, she didn't wait for Jia Siniang to respond. , picked up the tabloid and walked outside.
Magistrate Liu and his eldest son were discussing political affairs in the study when they heard his daughter's voice coming from outside: "Are my father and elder brother in there?"
Governor Liu glanced at the steward next to him, and the steward opened the door knowingly.
Liu Erniang walked in quickly.
"What's going on?" Magistrate Liu raised his eyes, "Why are you so anxious?"
His daughter has always paid special attention to her manners, and today was obviously a little unusual.
"Dad," Liu Erniang handed over the tabloid in her hand, "someone actually dares to publish this kind of thing on the street, do you care about that? If there are any inappropriate words, should the person be arrested and interrogated carefully?"
< br>"This is clearly an imitation of the imperial newspaper. According to my daughter, it is really inappropriate."
Prefect Liu picked up the tabloid and looked at it carefully. After a while, he looked at Liu Erniang: "This is our famous name. "Sold by the government?"
Liu Erniang nodded.
Zhifu Liu stroked his beard, handed the tabloid to his eldest son, and then said: "Did you see any inappropriate words in it?"
Liu Erniang frowned even more: "That's not true, but the person who wrote this tabloid has ulterior motives."
Prefect Liu looked at his daughter: "Where did this come from?"
