The Buddhist lady travels through ancient times to live a leisurely life

Mu Sheng rode on the horse, thinking seriously about what Yun Xi said.

Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, no matter in the past or now, commerce and merchants are always ranked at the bottom, and there are even many discriminatory regulations against merchants.

For example, "merchants were not allowed to wear silk or ride in carriages", they were asked to "wear a white shoe on one foot and a black shoe on the other", "businessmen, merchants, and servants were not allowed to wear gold, silver, or brocade within a hundred miles of the capital, and those who violated the rules would be exiled"...

There are many such regulations, and the status of pure businessmen is lower than one can imagine.

However, the "peaceful infiltration" that Yun Xi mentioned seems to fall into the category of "business".

As far as he knew, some merchants and even officials would form caravans to transport silk, tea and other things to the outside of the Great Wall, and then bring back furs from there. They bought low and sold high, making huge profits. However, the number of these caravans was too small, and it was far from what Xixi said about "peaceful infiltration" and "economic sanctions."

However, if we want to vigorously develop caravans, the imperial court will most likely not allow it.

He said to Yun Xi: "I'm afraid this matter needs to be considered carefully."

Yun Xi nodded, "I understand. I just suddenly had an idea and wanted to share it with you."

She was still clear about the status of a businessman.

In ancient society, all wealth must be controlled by power.

Wealth can be taken away by power at any time. For example, in the Ming Dynasty of her original time and space, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, in order to eliminate the local wealthy families, used the "Four Major Cases" of the Hongwu period to arbitrarily connect with the landlords and wealthy families, instigating people to falsely accuse them of hiding the stolen money deposited by corrupt officials in order to confiscate their property.

Therefore, in ancient times, people were not very interested in pure business operations and economic investments. They were more interested in politics. As long as you have power, you have everything.

Wanting to become a business tycoon who is as rich as a country is just a foolish dream.

This is why she didn't take business too seriously. Making a little money was enough. Without the protection of power, making yourself rich enough to rival a country would be courting death.

Even for the things she took out, she had to thank the good people she met. Otherwise, if others really wanted to take them by force, she would be involved in the struggle for power and interests, starting an endless struggle.

Lezi was riding on the horse, turned his head to look at Yunxi, and said to her: "Mom, whatever you want to do, wait until I grow up, I will help you."

Yun Xi smiled, "Okay, thank you, baby! You are really mother's caring little baby."

Lezi grinned, revealing a row of little white teeth.

Mu Sheng looked at Yun Xi, then at his son, and sighed in his heart. Children are born to compete for favor. What does the little brat know? He just said a nice word and made his wife confused. He is also a caring little baby. Why doesn't she say he is a caring big baby!

Which of the tasks Xixi assigned to him has he not completed?

"Son, go sit in the carriage for a while and let your mother come out to ride the horse, okay?"

Lezi looked up at his father, then turned to look at his mother and asked, "Mom, do you want to ride a horse?"

Mu Sheng: “…”

Yun Xi understood Mu Sheng's resentment and found it funny, but she didn't want to go out riding. It was a bit sunny outside, and it was broad daylight, so why would she and Mu Sheng ride on the same horse!

"I won't go. I don't like the sun. You two can sit in the carriage for a while. Come in and have some water."

When Mu Sheng heard her say this, he immediately took his son off the horse and into the carriage, all in one go.

When Lezai reacted, he was already in the carriage.

He just shouted "Mom" with a smile and was about to pounce on Yun Xi when he was trapped by Mu Sheng. His eyes were covered by his father and everything in front of him was dark.

Mu Sheng came over and kissed Yun Xi before letting go of Le Zai. Le Zai was so angry that he gritted his teeth. If he wasn't afraid that the carriage would shake violently and hit his mother, he would have had a fight with his father.

Yun Xi quickly held the child and stroked his fur, then secretly glared at Mu Sheng and pinched him.

Mu Sheng let out a hissing sound.

Yun Xi scolded: "Don't pretend, I didn't even try hard."

Mu Sheng smiled shamelessly, stretched out his hands to hug both mother and son in his arms, and said: "I know Xixi loves me and doesn't want me to be hurt."

Yun Xi: "..."

Lezi: “…”

He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and lifted the curtain with his little hand, and said to Mu Wu outside, "Uncle Wu, I'd better go out and ride a horse. You can take me for a ride."

Mu Sheng quickly handed his son out.

Yun Xi: "...He hasn't drunk the water yet."

"Give him some water later. He didn't ask for it just now, which means he's not thirsty yet."

He picked up Yun Xi, put her on his lap, whispered to her, and asked her in a very low voice: "Xi Xi, am I your sweet baby?"

Yun Xi swore that she was shaken by the thunder for a moment, just a moment. She adjusted herself immediately, but Mu Sheng felt it, and the whole person was instantly shrouded in a shadow.

Yun Xi felt a little guilty.

She turned around and sat on Mu Sheng's legs, lowered her head and kissed him, saying: "Of course you are my big baby. Without you, where would the little baby come from?"

The system was almost disgusted by them. In her mind, Yun Xi was so weird that she put it in a small dark room. This was a function she had recently figured out. At this humiliating moment, there was still a guy in her mind who kept talking nonsense. Who could stand this? Didn't she have any face?

Mu Sheng was coaxed.

Yun Xi sat on him for a while until Le Zai cried out for thirst outside, and then she was able to relieve him.

It's not that she doesn't want to come down, she just can't break free.

When Lezai came in this time, he saw that his father's face was as happy as a spring breeze again. He held him in his arms and fed him water with a cup in his own hands.

Zizi blinked his big eyes and looked at him, wondering why he was so fickle, but his father was as calm as the wind, and he couldn't tell anything.

Forget it, if I can’t see it, then forget it. He drank some water, sat in the shaky carriage, and fell asleep on Mu Sheng.

Riding a horse is very tiring.

Mu Sheng adjusted his posture to make his son sleep more comfortably. Although the little guy always made things difficult for him and competed for his favor, he still loved him.

When they were almost at the farm, Lezai woke up, rubbed his eyes, and quickly regained his spirits.

When Yun Xi first decided to stay at the manor for a while, she sent someone to deliver a letter to Yun Dad, and Yun Dad came the day before yesterday.

"Grandpa."

"father."

When Lezi saw Yundie, he rushed forward, and Yunxi followed closely behind him, also at a fast pace.

Father Yun was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He asked, "Why did you come now?"

Mu Sheng, who caught up with him, added, "Father-in-law."

Dad Yun asked him, "Do you have time to stay for lunch today?"

Mu Sheng: "...I will stay with them for a few days this time."

Yun Zhen was surprised and asked, "Do you have time?"

"Everything has been arranged. People in our military department have started taking turns to take their annual leave."

The words "You're quite lazy" almost came out of my mouth, but fortunately Dad Yun restrained himself.

He said, "That's great. You're busy every day and haven't been here much. Take this opportunity to have a good rest."

"Yes. I thought so too."
