Chapter 156 Wang Qing's Marriage Thread
In a loft in the Yunzhou provincial capital, Wang Qing stood at the window and looked into the distance.
I don’t know what happened to my master. He has been away from Beijing for more than half a year now. The situation in Beijing should be almost stable.
This month, many people from the Xie tribe traveled to and from the Yunzhou provincial capital. Most of them came to find wives, and some people went there.
Due to the policies of Jiamusi County, the two places have close exchanges, and the economy has also been indirectly boosted.
"Mom, do we really want to find a Han woman?"
A woman from the Xie tribe said, "Son, for these two people to be together, the most important thing is that they are suitable for each other. Their ethnicity doesn't have much of an impact. After all, our Jiamusi County has been annexed by the Yuan Dynasty."
The boy was persuaded by his mother, and any resentment or unwillingness in his heart disappeared.
"Come on, come on, it's time to sell sesame cakes."
"Selling rouge and powder. Beautiful rouge and powder, the first choice for girls and ladies."
"Selling chopsticks..."
"Tanghulu, selling Tanghulu, sweet and sour Tanghulu."
Wang Qing walked on the street, carefully watching the passers-by and vendors.
Butler Li followed behind him and found that his master was not only watching, but also in deep thought.
"Master, why don't we find a tea stall to sit at?" The master didn't feel tired even though he kept walking.
Hearing this, Wang Qing was stunned.
"You're right, there seems to be one up ahead, let's go there."
Wang Qing sat down at a table in the corner of a tea stall where three customers had just left.
Butler Li said, "Boss, bring me ten bowls of the best tea."
The old man quickly responded when he heard it: "Okay, sir, please wait a moment."
Butler Li blew on the table and looked at his master's condition, feeling a little confused.
"Master, what ways are you thinking of to make money again?"
Wang Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Yes, I wonder if you, the housekeeper, have found anything?"
The butler had been with him for more than half a year and was a very nice person. He also admired his abilities.
"I think we can find a way to deal with this Han-Xie marriage. I believe the masters of both sides will not mind."
Wang Qing smiled gently: "In my opinion, not only will they not mind, they will also be very supportive."
After all, they are indirectly supporting the empress, his master. These people are smart and should have thought of this.
"Wait a quarter of an hour, and then we'll go and see the shop."
Butler Li was stunned: "Huh?"
Why did he suddenly want to go to the shop for no reason? Did he miss something?
A quarter of an hour later, Wang Qing stood up. When Butler Li saw him, he quickly took out the money.
"Boss, the money is here."
"Well, good, gentlemen, take care."
After they all left, the old man hurried to clean up.
Butler Li thought that his master was just talking, but he didn't expect that they would actually come to the pawnshop.
"Sir, do you want to rent a shop or buy a shop and hire people?"
Wang Qing glanced at it calmly and said, "Buy a shop."
The person in charge of the dental clinic said enthusiastically: "Okay, come, I will take you to have a look."
The first shop had two floors, but it cost five hundred taels to buy, and Wang Qing felt that the area was a bit small.
The person in charge of the dental office took him to the opposite street and said, "What do you think of this place? It has good lighting and is spacious."
Wang Qing looked around and said, "It's quite good. How much is it?"
Whenever he can buy a property, he will buy it, after all, the landlord can take it back at any time.
"The total area of the upper and lower yards, front and back, is 500 square meters. It will cost 2,000 taels."
When he heard the price of two thousand taels, Butler Li felt that his master would not buy it.
"What's the lowest price? If it's suitable, I'll take it." When you go to a shop, you don't just accept the price others say. You still have to bargain.
Seeing how straightforward he was, the head of the pawnbroker also said bluntly, "Sir, you are honest, so am I. How about 1,800 taels?"
Seeing that two hundred taels were missing, Wang Qing nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, that's it. Butler Li, go transfer the ownership."
Butler Li bowed and said, "Yes, Master."
His master spent a lot of money this time.
The people in the prefectural government are already familiar with Steward Li.
"Butler Li, are you transferring servants or the shop today?"
Butler Li greeted him with a smile: "I'm transferring the ownership of my master's shop. Here's some small change. Please have some tea, brothers."
The captains smiled when they saw this and thanked him one after another.
"Thank you, Butler Li."
"Thank you, Butler Li."
……
Wang Qing has started arranging people to clean and tidy up. Finally, he stood upstairs and thought about the future business he would do.
Since the Xie people are intermarrying with the Han people, why not start a one-stop service like matchmaking and selling clothes?
There is official media here, what is his private one called?
A thread of fate?
Hey, this name feels okay.
The main business is to introduce marriages between men and women, matchmaking, wedding gowns for men and women, and other items. I believe it can make money if it is done well.
He went back and wrote to his master to see if she could give him any better suggestions.
A few days later, a private matchmaking service opened, specializing in matchmaking, matchmaking, wedding gowns, and other related services. They were also hiring workers, including matchmakers, errand runners, housekeepers, housekeepers, and carriage drivers.
For a time, the marriage scene was extremely busy, with many people registering for marriage and seeking employment.
"Boss, are you looking for a matchmaker? Do you think I can do it?" An old lady looked at the shopkeeper expectantly.
The shopkeeper was a man. When he heard the matchmaker, he looked at her carefully.
"The probation period is three days. You can give it a try. If you are not suitable, we will settle your salary."
The old lady understood and immediately became excited.
"Don't worry, I will do my best."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Let's try it tomorrow. Good luck."
"Okay, thank you, shopkeeper."
Leng Shuxiang's twins, a boy and a girl, have been born for half a month. Shangguan Wanjun often comes to see the two babies. One day, she came to Xiangxuan Pavilion again, but the first thing she held was the baby girl.
"What are the babies' names?"
Madam Leng said respectfully, "I will name my son Yuan Siqi and my daughter Yuan Siyu."
Shangguan Wanjun laughed after hearing this and teased the baby in her arms.
"Hello Yuyu, this is your nickname."
Leng Shuxiang was deeply moved to see that the emperor loved his children so much.
"Your Majesty, you must be tired of holding me. Please let me hold you."
"It's okay, just hold Qiqi."
Hearing Qiqi, Leng Shuxiang understood that this was the nickname given to her by the emperor based on her name.
This can be considered a name bestowed by the emperor.
"Hey, I heard that children all have a bath on their third birthday, right?"
Leng Shuxiang nodded slightly: "Yes."
However, she did not have twins, a boy and a girl, because it was not appropriate in the palace.
"We haven't done the third-day bath yet, so let's do the full-moon bath. I'll come to watch the ceremony, and we'll do the one-year-old ceremony around this time next year."
Leng Shuxiang was stunned when she heard this. The emperor has already made all the arrangements?
"I thank the Emperor."
"You're welcome. The palace seems more lively with two babies." According to her recollection, it seemed that no newborns had been born in the palace for a long time.
She is the only one born since my father ascended the throne. In the past few decades, there has only been one of her.
Leng Shuxiang could feel that the emperor actually liked children very much, and she wondered what it would be like for the emperor to become a mother.
