Chapter 1487

Looking at her melancholy face, the housekeeper laughed: "the West and our green flame across the sea, all the merchants who trade with each other are merchant ships. There is no sea near the capital. The merchants in the capital seldom go to the west by boat, and most of them directly buy the Western goods from the merchant ships coming back from the West." At that time, they were trading with Qingyan merchants. Therefore, no matter the account books of the Marquis of Zhenguo or those of the Xiaoyao palace, there would be no words like "western"

I see.

Murong Xue nodded and recalled the high, medium and low-end shops in the capital that she had visited. She could not help asking, "there seems to be no Western goods in the shops in Beijing..." After coming to Qingyan for more than a year, she has also visited dozens of shops, and really haven't seen anything from the West

Now the western world is Europe, America and other places in the West. The things there are very symbolic

The housekeeper smiles: "that's because Western things are rare in Qingyan. If you go into the shop, it will be sold out within three days..."

Murongxue:.... "

Well, it's because she's so slow that she doesn't see Western objects. It's not that they haven't sold them in their shops

"Do you have any Western objects in our house?" She has carefully checked the account books and storehouses of the Marquis of Zhenguo, but she has not seen any Western articles. As for the Xiaoyao palace, she has only looked at the account books, but not the storehouse

"Yes, it's all in the warehouse Lord, the princess likes Western things and bought a lot of them... " There are two masters who like Western goods. The housekeeper of Xiaoyao Palace also pays more attention to Western objects and the merchant ships carrying Western goods: "a merchant ship came back from the west some time ago, and brought a lot of goods. The prince and the princess bought some back Those oil paintings that let the prince and Princess set off for Great Britain were bought at that time... "

Murongxue:.... "

She seems to be a step slower, and a large number of Western objects pass by

Murong Xue was depressed and inadvertently saw all the gems, sapphires, rubies and emeralds in the tray held by a maid. Each of them was big and rough

"This is Precious stones from the West. "

The housekeeper of the palace looked at the jewels and said, "yes." Big, rough is the unique style of Western gems.

Murong Xue was surprised: "how did Wang en buy so many Western gems?" Isn't it that Western goods are in short supply and ordinary people can't buy them?

Housekeeper smiles: "the merchant ship that comes back is in the shore of Yunzhou." Even if Western goods are in short supply, it is easy for Wang en, the magistrate of Yunzhou, to buy these Western gems

Murongxue:.... "

It turned out that Wang en's western gem was not bought from the capital shop, but from the Yunzhou shop: "Yunzhou is near the sea!"

"Yes." The housekeeper nodded: Yunzhou is close to the sea, and the sea area of Yunzhou is quite wide, which can lead directly to the south. Many enterprising Yunzhou people have made ships to do business. They sell the specialties of Yunzhou to the South and transport the specialties of the south to Yunzhou. So, the business is quite good. Unfortunately, there are pirates, robbers, robbers and killers on the sea

"Pirates?" Murong snow surprised, this kind of occupation also has.

"Well." Housekeeper nods: pirate this kind of professional, after the sea merchant people make the first business, appeared.

There are robbers doing business on land and pirates doing business at sea. People in Yunzhou are really living in dire straits.

Murong Xue's heart was filled with emotion. He raised his eyes and looked at the housekeeper and said, "the emperor sent someone to suppress the bandits. Will the pirates also fight together?"

"Nature." The housekeeper nodded: the bandits and pirates in Yunzhou kill people and steal goods, and do all kinds of evil. As long as the emperor sends soldiers, he will destroy them all. Like Miss Meier, when she goes out, her parents and brothers are all killed, and she is seriously injured and becomes disabled. This kind of tragedy will be almost eliminated in the future

That's good. For a country, nothing is more important than peace and security of the country and the people's living and working in peace and contentment.

Murong Xue took a long breath of sullen air. Before he spoke, the servant's voice of report suddenly rang out: "princess, housekeeper, Lord Fu Yifu sent someone to make amends."

"An apology? What kind of reparation? " Murong Xue didn't respond for a moment.

"To return to the imperial concubine is an apology to his fiancee Wang Shanshan." The servant said respectfully.

"Oh." Murong Xue knows that Fu Yigang had a quarrel with Wang Shanshan just now, and now he has sent an apology to Wang Shanshan. It seems that he still likes Wang Shanshan.

"What did you send?" Murong Xue asked curiously.

"A pair of Western ceramic bottles, a pair of Western glass bottles." The servant said and presented the apology. The ceramic bottle was a white glazed bottle with a large belly and a high neck. The bottle neck was painted with a blue grid pattern unique to the West. On the bottom of the bottle was a picture of a blonde girl picking flowers. The whole bottle was permeated with a strong Western style.

The glass bottle is light green with exquisite shape. The 70% transparency of the bottle is comparable to that brought by Murong Xue from modern times. Those completely transparent glass bottles can't be compared. However, the ice cracks on the glass bottle make the bottle look hazy and exquisite.Such two pairs of bottles, as an apology to send, very timely, such an apology, will let people brush off the anger of Wang Shanshan, no longer care about her.

Fu Yi, as a gift giver, made amends for his fiancee with 12% of his mind. It's really hard for him Wait

Murong snow suddenly thought of a question: "these two pairs of bottles, are not cheap?"

The housekeeper glanced at the bottles and said, "yes, these two pairs of Western bottles need at least two or three thousand taels of silver."

"Oh Murong Xue's cold eyes narrowed slightly: "how could Fu Yi have so much silver..." Isn't he an orphan? As an orphan, before he was admitted to the Jinshi, he was poor and had no savings at all.

After winning the Jinshi, he was sent to Dongshi County as an official. His annual salary was only a few hundred taels. Even if he did not eat or drink, his annual salary for three years was not 2000 Liang

The housekeeper of the palace: Maybe he has other income... "

"What input? Buying land? Open a shop? " Murong Xue asked.

Housekeeper: "well Yes... " Ordinary people will buy land, open shops and let money generate money when they have surplus money. Dongshi county where Fu Yi is located is a rich county, which is very close to Yunzhou. After he has surplus money in his hand, it is not difficult to earn two or three thousand Liang silver in three years, whether it is to buy land, open a shop or do other things

"Is that so?" Is Fu Yi's money really earned by buying land and opening shops?
