Happy Little Scholar
Chapter 644 Foreign Merchants
When Li Yi got the news about Princess Hui and the monk, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
After all, Princess Hui was a princess, and the Cui family and Cui Guifei were behind her. In addition, the Chen family and the Shen family did not pursue the case later. The queen's final punishment for her was to be grounded for two months and copy the "Nvjing" and "The Female Commandments" Fifty times each. The place of confinement is in a certain palace. During these two months, no one is allowed to visit.
Of course, those two glazed statues would eventually have to be counted on King Hui, who was fined a total of one hundred thousand taels of silver without any mercy. Even for a prince, this was a large sum of money.
The punishment for the monk was even more severe. In order to reduce the number of murders, the old emperor was unwilling to kill anyone in the past two years. He would usually be released after spending hundreds of years in prison. Of course, during the period of imprisonment, if he had money and strength, he would be released. If you work hard, you can save a few years.
This is just a small accident and has nothing to do with the overall situation. The Wang family's glass charity sale will be held as scheduled in two days. The location is in Furong Garden. From today on, this matter is being spread throughout Kyoto. This time, there will definitely be more powerful people. , more monks went, and those wealthy businessmen in Kyoto who had low status but a lot of money were also invited.
Such a large scale and formation made everyone couldn't help but wonder how much colored glaze the Wang family bought from foreign merchants. Why didn't they receive any news before?
The whole capital was looking for foreign merchants, but those people seemed to have disappeared suddenly. Everyone could only focus on the Wang family's glass charity sale in two days.
Li Yi's eyes were on Miss Liu Er.
"No money again?"
He almost jumped up from his chair and asked: "How many days have it been? The four thousand taels of silver are gone. What did you do with that money?"
Miss Liu Er held her sword and said, "You said you were recruiting troops."
"Are you really using it to recruit troops?" Li Yi was skeptical about this.
"Money can make a fool of yourself, that's what you said." Miss Liu Er looked at him and said, "Recruiting troops and buying horses naturally requires more money."
"How much do you want this time?" Li Yi asked after thinking for a while.
If it were used for serious matters, he would certainly not be stingy.
"Three thousand taels."
Li Yi thought for a while and said, "I'll give you one hundred thousand taels."
"How many?"
Miss Liu Er put down her sword and looked at him and asked.
"One hundred thousand taels." Li Yi repeated.
The purpose of making money is to spend it. The money you keep at home has to be taken out to dry after a while. Anyway, a large amount of money will come in in two days, so it is better to be generous all at once.
Miss Liu Er looked wary and asked, "Did you do anything behind your sister's back?"
After Li Yi was stunned, he waved his hand and said, "Three thousand taels, you can go to the accounting room and get it yourself."
Li Yi still doesn't know how courageous Miss Liu Er is. Even if she gives him one million taels, let alone one hundred thousand taels, she can spend it all in a short time.
However, he doesn't know at the moment what kind of behemoth these one hundred thousand taels of silver, coupled with a generous martial arts leader, will create in the future...
When Miss Liu Er was about to go to the accounting room, Li Yi waved and said: "Just in time, the organization has a new task for you to complete..."

Jinyu Pavilion is the largest jewelry store in Jingguo. It mainly sells jewelry and precious utensils. It has branches in every capital of Jingguo.
Although it is not stated clearly, everyone knows that the person who controls Jinyu Pavilion behind the scenes is the famous Cui family.
Kyoto is a place where powerful officials and wealthy businessmen from the Jing Kingdom gather, so the Cui family attaches great importance to this place. The shopkeeper who guards the Jinyu Pavilion in Kyoto is a core member of the Cui family who is good at business.
A young man went around to the back room and said to the middle-aged man sitting there, sipping tea: "Uncle Third, someone came to ask again today if we have any glassware here. There are obviously two pieces in the warehouse. They The price offered is also very high, why don’t we sell it?”
"What do you know?" The middle-aged man put down his tea cup and said, "Your Majesty has just held a glass appreciation meeting, and the Wang family will also have a large amount of glass for sale. By then, most people will have glass in their hands, and those who have not got it will What do you think?"
The young man asked doubtfully: "Things are rare and valuable. When that time comes, won't the price of colored glaze come down?"
"Things are rare and expensive, but the supply of colored glaze is already in short supply, so how can the price go down?" The middle-aged man smiled and said, "When the time comes, those people will only become even crazier..."
The young man was about to ask, but suddenly he frowned, turned around and glanced, and heard a noisy sound coming from the front hall.
"Second uncle, let me go and take a look in front." The young man said and strode forward.
"Go, go, you beggars, don't disturb our business in Jinyu Pavilion." A waiter from Jinyu Pavilion said impatiently: "If you don't go away, I won't be polite."
Opposite him stood several people in strange costumes and ragged clothes.
"What's going on?" The young man came out from behind and asked with a frown.
Seeing the young man coming out, the waiter immediately put on a flattering smile and said: "Sir, there are a few beggars here, and the villain is planning to drive them out!"
"There are guests coming in. You go and do your work. I'll talk to them." Seeing someone coming in from outside, the young master pointed at him and said.
"Sir, these people..." The guy seemed to want to say something.
"Go quickly." The young man waved his hand, and the guy had no choice but to leave.
The young master looked at those people and said: "You beggars, there is nothing for you here, so leave quickly."
A beggar at the front looked at him, his face seemed a little anxious, and said: "%¥#%¥#*@*@!..."
The young master was stunned and asked, "What did you just say?"
"%¥#%¥#*@*@!..." The expression on the man's face became even more anxious.
The young master finally realized something, and a trace of anger appeared on his face, and he said: "You bastards, how dare you play tricks on me, come here, drive them out!"
"Wait!"
A voice suddenly came from behind. The middle-aged man stepped forward, looked at those people suspiciously, and asked, "Are you from Fanbang?"
Then he seemed to realize something and asked again: "Do any of you understand Chinese?"
"I……"
Behind a few people, a man with messy hair, a thin body, and a look that was obviously different from ordinary people came out and said stumblingly: "I, I understand, I understand a little bit, what you are saying..."
"Are you from a foreign country?" the middle-aged man asked with a hint of joy on his face.
"No!" A proud expression appeared on the face of the man opposite, and he said: "I, we come, from the great..., Great Britain, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and... Northern Ireland, the United Kingdom..., the Empire on which the sun never sets..."
There was excitement on the middle-aged man's face. He didn't care what crazy country those people came from, the country where the sun never sets. Just by listening to their appearance, broken Chinese, and the few big boxes behind them, he knew that these people were very It could be ------ a foreign businessman!
The whole Kyoto is looking for the foreign merchant!
The middle-aged man suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"We have a lot of Liuli to sell to you."
The man said something, turned around and waved to a few people behind him. Someone immediately opened the two large boxes. The middle-aged man took a look inside, and his eyes immediately became a little straight.
Inside those boxes, glassware was piled randomly like ordinary porcelain. A quick glance revealed that there were probably dozens of items in this box. The two boxes added together...
He rushed forward, closed the box, turned around and shouted to several waiters: "Send off guests, close the door, Jinyu Pavilion is not doing business today!"
