Take Taobao to ancient times

Due to Lu Siyue's limited energy, Lu Siyu did not intend to only sell Lu Siyue's embroidery, but found a special embroidery workshop to buy some.

Most of the embroideries sold in the embroidery workshop are embroidered in batches. Although they are embroidered one by one, practice makes perfect, and the final product level is also very good. He doesn’t buy many. Basically, he buys handkerchiefs and round fans. Ten pieces, and then throw them all into Taobao.

But in this way, his money is a little tight.

"Brother Yu is in a bad mood?" Zhuang Jinhan sat opposite Lu Siyu, leaned his hands on the table, and looked at him with a smile.

"Suddenly I feel a little poor," Lu Siyu said helplessly, "In order to maintain the restaurant's livelihood these days, it is almost impossible to make ends meet, and it has not been paid back until now."

Before he went to sea, he took a sum of money from Song Jue, but for the sake of the life of Lu Siyue and the three of them, he gave the money to Song Jue and asked him to help take care of the three of them. After returning, he had no other income. , In addition to opening a restaurant and taking out some, in the end it turned out that the situation was beyond the means.

"This matter is easy to handle. Uncle Yu's glass factory and pastry shop have Brother Yu's share, so I can ask my uncle to get it." Zhuang Jinhan smiled. Others don't know, but he knows that Lu Siyu and Song Jue cooperated. Don't say goodbye Yes, that pastry shop made a lot of money. Lu Siyu, who looks inconspicuous to outsiders, is indeed richer than many people.

"Isn't that good?" Lu Siyu still remembered the pastry shop and Liulichang. After he took out the recipe for making glass, Song Jue offered to give him a share, but he always felt embarrassed about these things. Song Jue mentioned it in front of him.

"What's wrong, if Brother Yu doesn't mention this, I'm afraid my uncle will forget about it." Zhuang Jinhan comforted.

"Forgot what?" Song Jue suddenly entered the room.

"I forgot to give Brother Yu a commission." Zhuang Jinhan said proactively.

"It turned out to be this matter. How could I forget such a big matter, but Xiao Yu, you never mentioned it, so I forgot to tell you." Song Jue took out a letter from his arms, "This is from the royal firm. The ticket, all the dividends given to you are in it, you can go to any store to withdraw money as long as you hold it."

"A bill, isn't it a silver bill?" Lu Siyu was a little puzzled, he thought that the biggest thing in this era was the silver bill.

"I'm afraid there is a lot of banknotes for you, and the money that belongs to you is directly transferred from my account, and there are monthly, if it is too inconvenient to calculate with banknotes, you can take the banknotes at any time Go to the royal store to withdraw money, and they will count how much silver you have." Song Jue said with a smile.

"So that's it." Lu Siyu took the ticket in Song Jue's hand, thinking that it was a salary card, but he didn't know how much money was in his salary card.

"You can keep the ticket, even if you lose it, it doesn't matter. Most people don't know the use of the ticket, and even if they know, they can't get the money," Song Jue said, with a serious expression, "I'm here this time , and I have something else to tell you."

"Uncle, please tell me."

"Recently, there is an urgent report from the border. It is said that there are foreign enemies invading. I am afraid that we will recruit troops in the near future. If the situation worsens, I am afraid that every family will have to send out a male." Song Jue frowned and looked at Lu Siyu worriedly. .

"What do you mean the situation is serious?" Lu Siyu was stunned for a long time. He has lived in modern times for too long, and he has been living comfortably since he came to ancient times. The four of them must be him on the battlefield.

"The situation has not yet reached the point of seriousness. I just want to let you know in advance," Song Jue said, "After experiencing the war, my dynasty has not been peaceful. It has finally stabilized amidst the ups and downs. Naturally, I don't want another war. Once the enemy is strong, I am afraid that it will not be able to win in a short time, no matter what the final result is, we must plan for the best and the worst."

"Is it so serious?" Lu Siyu has never experienced a war, and the war closest to him in his memory stopped early before he was born. Although there was unrest after that, it was a small fight after all. Let him face the truth of war. Some are not used to it.

Once there is a war, it means that there will be death, and at the same time there will be a situation where the people are in dire straits.

"Uncle, don't scare Brother Yu." Zhuang Jinhan frowned aside.

"Ah?" Lu Siyu suddenly raised his head and looked at the two of them blankly.

"The matter is not so serious," Zhuang Jinhan explained, "The border has never been peaceful, and there will be small-scale wars every year, but this year there are more people on the other side, but since your steamy thing appeared, it has become much easier to strike iron So my uncle teamed up with the Ministry of War to make a large number of weapons. These weapons have already been sent to the border. Coupled with the appearance of sweet potatoes, the soldiers on the border can basically be full. Therefore, even if the number of enemy troops increases this year, Not enough evidence."

"But..." Lu Siyu looked at Song Jue at the side. He saw Song Jue's serious appearance before, and felt that what he said did not seem to be adulterated.

"Uncle—" Zhuang Jinhan frowned.

"Okay, okay, I exaggerated a bit," Song Jue shook his head, "It's just that you don't intend to explain your matter clearly to Xiao Yu?"

"What's the matter, Brother Zhuang?" After Song Jue admitted that what he said was exaggerated, Lu Siyu was immediately relieved, but he was quickly attracted by his first sentence, and his mind was full of thoughts about what Zhuang Jinhan had. Things are hidden from him.

"The emperor has given an order," Zhuang Jinhan said, pausing for a moment, "to let me go to a government office on the border to be the magistrate."

"..." Lu Siyu was silent for a long time. After chatting with Zhuang Jinhan and Song Jue before, he knew that Zhuang Jinhan would leave the capital sooner or later, but this day came suddenly, but he was not used to it, and he seemed a little reluctant, "This position how?"

Lu Siyu's eyes are really dark about official positions. He only knows that even officials of the same level have real power and virtual power, but he can't tell which is real and which is false, and he can't tell which is good and which is not. Difference.

"The magistrate is the fourth grade." Zhuang Jinhan just said so.

"The prefects on the border, even if they are of the fourth grade, are there not many people going there?" Lu Siyu asked. Naturally, many people go to the prefects in the south of the Yangtze River, but those remote, barren, and barren prefects have very few people who want to go. Not many, let alone in the war-prone border.

"It's not just that there are few. I can't find one in the whole court. He is the only one who is rushing to go, and I don't know what's so good about the border." Song Jue frowned, obviously displeased with Zhuang Jinhan's decision .

"Uncle—" Zhuang Jinhan called out.

"So Brother Zhuang asked for it?" Lu Siyu stood up and asked seriously.

Zhuang Jinhan was silent, and then nodded slowly: "There is a magistrate in Jiangnan who is about to retire and return to his hometown. The original plan of the emperor was to let me go to Jiangnan as magistrate and go to the border. I asked for it."

"So that's how it is," Lu Siyu said in a low voice, and looked at him seriously again, "Then let's go."

"Brother Yu?" Zhuang Jinhan suddenly looked at Lu Siyu.

"This is Brother Zhuang's own idea, isn't it?" Lu Siyu raised his head with a smile in his eyes, "Since it is Brother Zhuang's own decision, then let's go. There is no right or wrong in making a decision, only if you want to or don't want to go. Go, just be careful."

"Okay." Zhuang Jinhan nodded seriously.

"You two—ah—" Song Jue let out a long sigh.

"Actually, what matters is not my thoughts, but the thoughts of my uncle and aunt." Lu Siyu woke up suddenly when he heard Song Jue's words, and suddenly thought of something, "Brother Zhuang wants to go to such a dangerous place, as a friend, he will naturally be worried, but the most worrying thing is Nothing is worse than parents, who don’t know what uncles and aunts think.”

Lu Siyu asked himself that he and Zhuang Jinhan were just ordinary friends and couldn't make decisions for Zhuang Jinhan. If Zhuang Jinhan made up his mind because of a few words he said, if something happened in the future, the most painful thing would be Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother. What matters is what Zhuang's father and mother think.

Just thinking of this, Lu Siyu suddenly felt as if something was pressing in his heart, which made him a little out of breath.

"My parents have agreed." Zhuang Jinhan nodded.

"It's good if uncle and aunt agree. By the way, when will Brother Zhuang leave?" Lu Siyu asked again.

"Leave in five days." Zhuang Jinhan said.

"Five days later, so soon?" Lu Siyu was surprised, he didn't expect Zhuang Jinhan to leave so soon.

"The frontier is not without a magistrate. There are many things waiting for me this time. In addition to bringing a lot of weapons, I also need to bring a lot of seeds. I hope they can be planted on the border and supplied to the soldiers." Zhuang Jinhan said with a very serious expression .

"There are indeed a lot of things," Lu Siyu nodded, and then looked up at Zhuang Jinhan, "Actually, it's still profitable. From Zhizhou to Zhifu, Brother Zhuang is now a fourth-rank official. I'm afraid many people won't believe it if I tell it. .”

"Yeah, speaking of it, I still made money." Zhuang Jinhan smiled.

The two looked at each other, as if they had a tacit understanding.

"You two, I'm really pissed off, but none of you are worried, and I'm the one who worries about this kid the most?" Song Jue was anxious.

It's fine for Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother to agree. He always knew that those two most wanted their son to make great achievements, and they planned to pin their hopes on Lu Siyu. With Zhuang Jinhan's attitude towards Lu Siyu, as long as Lu Siyu showed the slightest reluctance, Zhuang Jinhan would definitely hesitate. It is not impossible to think of a way to make Zhuang Jinhan change his mind, but Lu Siyu agreed so easily.

"We all know that my uncle is worried about Brother Zhuang, but this is also Brother Zhuang's own life. Everyone's life should be decided by himself, just like my uncle likes to do business, and grandpa has no objection. If grandpa insists on not letting my uncle do business, I'm afraid my uncle I can only obey, and I will not have the achievements I have today, and I will regret it for the rest of my life, I think the same is true for my uncle and aunt, but I just don't want Brother Zhuang to regret it." Lu Siyu said seriously.

"You, you, it's a set of truths at this time!" Song Jue said helplessly, "Forget it, you can go if you want, anyway, at this moment, even if I object, I'm afraid you won't back down gone."

After saying that, Song Jue turned around and left, ignoring the two people in the room.
