Wang Yuanbao sunk his fat body into the pear wood carving lounge chair. Looking at his handsome son, he felt a little regretful that he had married a beautiful and down-to-earth official lady. He had indeed improved the Wang family.
But although this boy has a good appearance and good knowledge, he has not been through many storms and easily panics when things happen.
"Why is my son so anxious?"
Wang Yuanbao asked his son: "Dad, I want to ask you, have you found out anything about Ning Prince's Mansion?"
"this……"
Wang Quan paused and responded truthfully: "No!"
"Prince Ning's Mansion has never found out the identity. If you panic first, doesn't it mean that there is no silver here, which will arouse people's suspicion?"
Seeing Wang Quan's expression calm down, Wang Yuanbao guessed: "Your father is right. Is Ning Prince's Mansion secretly investigating this matter?"
Wang Quan thought Jiang was still hotter when he was old!
Sure enough, his father was very good at predicting things.
He asked Wang Yuanbao: "Dad, what's the point of secret interrogation and open interrogation?"
"I conducted the investigation in secret because I was in the wrong and I didn't want to make this matter a big deal."
Wang Yuanbao analyzed it for him in detail: "The storybook talks about the affairs of a high-ranking mansion, but there is no mention of the Qushui River Banquet. If Prince Ning's Mansion insists on moving up, it will be self-inflicted and the city of Chang'an will be offended for nothing. A joke from an aristocratic family."
"Besides, shouldn't the number one suspect for spreading these rumors be the General's Mansion?"
Wang Yuanbao was wrapped in a warm fur coat and said calmly: "General Zuo Yulin is, after all, a popular person beside His Majesty. Is the General's Office willing to suffer losses?"
"We are careful about the storybook. Those who associate the storybook with the Qushui River Drinking Banquet in restaurants and teahouses, but the writings of the Fourth Young Master of the General's Mansion have little to do with our family."
"That day, Li Linhuai was serving the banquet in Qushui River. Li Linhuai also performed his duties faithfully. The Lord of Ji'an County is shameless and insists on dragging the General's Mansion into trouble. Don't you want Duke Ji to fight back?"
"Don't worry, the matter will eventually come to an end and will not be traced to our house."
"The little princess has no plans left!"
Wang Yuanbao said firmly: "Prince Ning's Mansion must suffer from the loss of being dumb."
"Your father is now a seventh-grade official, a man who makes money for the treasury for Your Majesty. As the little princess said, the prosperous Tang Dynasty needs useful people, and the most important thing is the relatives of the emperor who can enjoy the benefits."
"So don't be too cautious in your actions. This family can't be defeated!"
Wang Yuanbao told him: "If you have such leisure, you might as well worry more about the Liuli Market."
"Transparent colored glaze can not only be used to make colored glaze utensils, but can also be used for other purposes. Crystal clear colored glaze utensils are the first of its kind in the Tang Dynasty. With this advantage, we have to do something big to be worthy of the little princess and the current majesty of the Wang family. of reliance."
He ordered: "This colored glaze market must be built as soon as possible. With the current Holy Emperor as our support, our Wang family will reach from the north to the Turks and south to Nanshao. Only by holding in hand all the production and sales information of the colored glaze land can we be invincible." place."
Wang Quan thought that his father had gained the trust of His Majesty by climbing up to the tenth princess. The Wang family seemed to be walking on a cliff, and they might fall into the abyss if they were not careful.
After all, he stood too high and could easily become the target of some powerful people in Beijing.
Hearing what Wang Yuanbao said about the book, Wang Quan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to take care of the supervision of the West City Liuli Market.
Wang Quan was about to leave the study, but he didn't know that his subtle changes fell into Wang Yuanbao's eyes.
Wang Yuanbao called out to him: "Dad, I know what you are worried about, but you can't overdo it. Without the tenth princess, the Wang family would be the fat in the mouths of the powerful people in the capital. Now that there is a saint to rely on, there is an extra layer of protection."
"After all, the princess is not a man, and what she does is beneficial to the country. Therefore, the royal family and the princess are tied together to ensure peace rather than relying on any party's power. After all, the one in the palace is in her prime."
"When you are lucky enough to meet the tenth princess one day, you will know that what your father said is true."
"It's a blessing for the Wang family to handle matters for the Tenth Duke. Don't let your father think about anything in the future."
Comparing with Li Sixu, Wang Yuanbao immediately disliked his son: "If the princess had not been born in a deep palace, the richest man in the capital would have nothing to do with our Wang family..."
Wang Quan thought that his father had simply been poisoned by the tenth princess, but the method of burning colored glaze was indeed thrown to his father by the rumored little princess.
Nowadays, the Wang family’s glazed wares are worth a lot of gold every day.
There is also the movable type printing method that is popular in the capital. After the Wang family set up a bookshop, they not only got in touch with Princess Yuzhen, but also got a bit of a scholarly atmosphere.
The nobles of the aristocratic family who used to dislike the Wang family's stinky appearance are now willing to associate with his family.
After being lectured, Wang Quan was about to leave and go to the West Market to continue to supervise the construction of the Liuli Market. The palace steward knocked on the door and came in to report.
"Sir, Mr. Wang from Taiyuan Hospital is here!"
"Wang Ziqing is here?"
Wang Yuanbao rolled down from the pear chair in excitement: "The tenth princess must have something to explain. Please invite her in quickly."
The stranger is like jade, and the young master is unparalleled in the world!
Although Wang Ziqing was only an imperial physician, Wang Quan had seen him several times and admired his elegance very much, and was unwilling to move away for a while.
Every time the princess asks Wang Ziqing to come to the palace, there must be something good going on.
Wang Yuanbao was too lazy to catch up with his son.
Just as he expected, Wang Ziqing entered the study room, exchanged a few words with the father and son, and then handed Wang Yuanbao a page of paper.
"Junior sister asked Zi Qing to hand it over. She said she thanked Mr. Wang for helping to find oil paper for the greenhouse, and for her recent help, and for offering a small way to make money."
Li Sixu asked Wang Ziqing to hand over the recipe for soaking bean sprouts, and also listed in detail the various ways to make bean sprouts, and gave the bean sprouts a very nice name, Ruyi Cai.
Just hearing the name of this dish, Wang Yuanbao thought about how to make money from Ruyi cuisine, how to bring this auspicious Ruyi dish to major restaurants, and how to put it on the dining tables of the powerful in the capital.
"You are so kind, little princess!"
Wang Yuanbao smiled so much that the fat on his face was about to overflow, and handed the recipe to Wang Quan beside him: "We can't let down the little princess's wishes. I will figure out this wishful dish as soon as possible according to the method taught by the princess. It will be closed soon." Now, each government can add another good dish."
He said to Wang Ziqing: "Please tell the princess, please follow the old rules, 50-50."
"Three-seven, Mr. Wang takes 70%. Junior sister told me."
Wang Ziqing explained: "Junior sister said that it is not difficult to cultivate Ruyi vegetables, and Mr. Wang can only make this money before the year."
Wang Yuanbao thought that the annual gift sent to the palace during the New Year would be more generous, so he did not shirk it.
"make a deal!"
He cupped his hands and said, "My dear nephew, thank you for making this trip."
"Master Wang, you don't have to be polite. Zi Qing was entrusted by junior sister..."
