Tong Jia anecdote

Looking at himself suspiciously, Ji Lan said solemnly again, "Bless you to lose everything as soon as possible."

Seeing Tong Jiu's staring eyes immediately, and her pouting grievance, Ji Lan smiled happily, stretched out her hand to call her, and said, "It's getting late, let's go back."

Tong Jiu was bored all night, when Ji Lan came back from washing and washing, she saw her lying on Bu Huo's pillow, staring at the paper on the window lattice in a daze.I just sat on the bed, and before I lifted the quilt, I heard her sigh again.

After Ji Lan lay down, he gently pulled her ears and pulled her face towards him, and said carefully, "That year, you borrowed money from me, and today you took the money and left the customs the next day. This year, what happened? ?”

"What else can I do, I can't bear you." Tong Jiu turned around and embraced Ji Lan lightly, and said, "This trip will be all over the world. It's easy to talk about Dazhengchang, after all, it's our own business. But give The imperial court is on a mission, if you make a mistake, you will lose your head, no matter how much I can't bear you, I have to go this trip myself."

"I'll take you to Guihua City and wait for your return at the Guihua Yangzhengtang branch." Ji Lan rubbed her head and said, "This business trip is over, we will never be separated again. Besides, in a few days The grassland of the moon is the best time."

"It's not with you, I don't want to see even the best scenery." Tong Jiu lowered his head and leaned in front of Ji Lan, and said helplessly, "However, I don't worry if you are at home."

Therefore, Tong Jiu and Ji Lan only stayed in the south of the Yangtze River for a while, and brought the dowry of the comprador Zina Mugege, the golden nanmu and various white sugar, brown sugar and rock sugar brought back from Guangdong.

Along the way, they collected boxed brick tea from various tea hills. 20 yuan per box is high-quality tea, 20 taels per box, which is exclusively for Mongolian princes and nobles. 39 yuan per box is rough tea, 13 taels per box, which is exclusively sold Mongolian civilians.

The luxurious silk transported from Huzhou and Hangzhou, and the fine porcelain from Jingdezhen were also exclusively for the Mongolian nobles, and then traveled north along the river to Henan to pack raw tobacco and curved silk.

Most of the curved silk is twill, which is wear-resistant and washable. Most Mongolians except princes and nobles in the Mongolian grasslands wear curved silk on a daily basis.

The rest are the medicinal materials of Jilan Yangzhengtang. In addition to the southern medicinal materials shipped to various accounts outside the Guan, there are also special medicine packages for the Mongolian grasslands. The medicinal effects are 72, 48 and 24 flavors.The other is used to heal livestock.

The merchant ship sailed all the way to the north, and unloaded the golden nanmu after entering Beijing.Tong Jiu went to the Prince's Mansion to reply, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to inspect the purchase items one by one, then sealed them, and handed them over to the escort for loading.

It was only when she arrived at the palace that Tong Jiu knew that during the days she had left, Namugege's initial ceremony had already been held, and if it was done again, it would be a real wedding.

The ceremonial guards and passengers for the wedding had already been prepared, and they went to Horqin just waiting for the big day of the wedding.

Hearing that Tong Jiu reported that she was going to leave the customs, Prince Jian ordered her to leave the customs with Namugege's send-off team.

"Han Luqi, you go to the mountains and the road is far away, so you should cherish yourself. My king, I will wait for your good news in Beijing." Perhaps it was because his beloved daughter was about to marry far away, and Prince Xie was obviously not in the mood, so he asked the big housekeeper after a few instructions. Seeing off guests.

Looking at the long line of guards of honor in front of him who were blowing and blowing for several miles, Tong Jiu sat in the swaying carriage and held Ji Lan's hand, saying, "It's such a big battle for the first time to go out, so it's so lively." Leaning comfortably on the soft pillow, he said, "This time, let me see who dares to rob our way."

"Have you ever met the person Namu is going to marry?" Ji Lan sighed, thinking of how Namugege cried several times when he was celebrating the wedding at the palace a few days ago, "What kind of person is he?"

"I've probably seen it, but it's not really seen." Tong Jiu shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Wangzal Dolji is the eldest son of my second cousin. But among my cousins, the third brother Growing up in the capital, I only got along with him a little bit, and the rest didn't go around much. As for the nephews and juniors in their house... I have little impression."

"Marry a stranger." Ji Lan stroked the Buddhist beads on her wrist, and said, "So what if you were born in a prince's family?"

"I also often think that there are only a handful of women in the world who are as free and easy as you and me. Therefore, it is right to work hard in business and travel." He said with a contented smile to Jilan, and said, "Do you think so?" ?”

Ji Lan looked out for a while from the window of the car with the curtains lifted, then withdrew his eyes and held the hands of the people around him to play with.

After knocking her a few times, Tong Jiu held her hand tightly and said, "It's going to be broken."

"I like it." Ji Lan raised her head slightly and looked at Tong Jiu provocatively. Seeing the helplessness on Tong Jiu's face, Ji Lan smiled lightly, pulled her arm and leaned against her, saying, "Since I am in charge of the raising Zhengtang has been in existence for more than ten years, and there have been gains and losses in these years, how much money do you think the most profitable transaction I made was?"

"How much?" Speaking of this Tong Jiu was very curious, Ji Lan was as good as a Bodhisattva, how much he made from the biggest deal, and asked guessingly, "Is there 500 million taels?"

"Five million taels is nothing." Ji Lan shook his head disdainfully, with a mysterious expression on his face.

"Then... 500 million taels?" Tong Jiu's eyes widened. He made so much money in one transaction. What kind of medicine must he be selling?

Ji Lan pinched Tong Jiu's face lightly, shaking it, and asked, "How much money are you worth?"

"Ah?" Tong Jiu realized that Ji Lan was talking about herself.Immediately, I felt happy, and with a laugh, I grabbed Ji Lan's neck and kissed him on the face.

"Do you know that businessmen in Shanxi have an unwritten custom?" Ji Lan ignored Tong Jiu's "frivolous" behavior for the first time, and continued to say, "If the business fails and the family goes bankrupt, if you don't stand up for a lifetime, you will not be able to do it for the rest of your life." Going back to Shanxi, even if there is an old mother in the house and a young child waiting to be fed."

"I've heard of this a little bit." Tong Jiu smiled and looked at Ji Lan.

"You are a person who has undergone several major changes. I just want you to remember that anything you can buy with money is not worth your life." Ji Lan held Tong Jiu's hand tightly and said, "Are you This is the first person I admire in nearly 30 years, I can have no money, no business, but I can’t live without you. You said that you want to be with me for a lifetime, as long as I don’t die, it’s not a lifetime.”

Just as Tong Jiu was about to say something, he suddenly heard a commotion ahead, and the convoy gradually stopped.

I vaguely heard someone say something in Mongolian to the Mongolian soldiers who were picking up the bride next to me, and then I saw those Mongolian soldiers get off their horses, kowtowed and cried loudly while lying on the ground in the direction of Mongolia.

"What's the matter?" Ji Lan asked anxiously seeing Tong Jiu standing up suddenly and staring out the window with straight eyes.

"They said that Prince Darhan died of illness." After speaking, he looked back at Ji Lan, knelt down in the car, and said softly, "My uncle, he died..."

Since then, the beginning chapter of "Anecdote of Tong Jia" has come to an end.
