The sea is indeed full of risks, but the person in charge of the overseas strategy this time is the Fourth Young Master of the General's Mansion. He has been canonized as the Overseas Strategy Envoy and is in charge of this voyage.
Moreover, the emperor has arranged a marriage between him and the tenth princess. After the two get married, the princess will definitely follow him overseas.
The novel gadgets that the ten princesses have figured out over the years can all benefit the people and bring huge profits. If the ten princesses are in charge of sailing, how can there be any risks?
This is truly a lucrative deal!
The Jinyi merchant who analyzed them also sighed: "Wang Yuanbao is really very shrewd. He had already made friends with the ten princesses when they first showed their influence. Therefore, not only did the Wang family's business in the capital go smoothly in these years, but also After being ingratiated with the royal family, he also held a vacant position in the court, and was even promoted to the title of county boy."
"What an honor these are?"
He asked a few people around him: "We are also doing business, how many people can be as rich as Wang Yuanbao? If you give me a chance, I will definitely learn from Wang Yuanbao and get the luck of the ten princesses."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention!
The guests who come in and out of Wangyue Tower are either rich or noble. Most businessmen cannot make friends with the ten princesses, but those who dine at Wangyue Tower include many royal relatives and officials.
Since the tenth princess took the lion's burden rewarded by the emperor to the Yuanbao Pavilion for auction, it must be because of insufficient navigation funds.
Yuanbao Pavilion is going to auction the lion's burden. Then the tenth princess, who is the owner of the lion's burden, will appear in Yuanbao Pavilion, right?
Can we take advantage of this opportunity to make friends with the ten princesses, or take a photo of a gemstone that only the current emperor has?
It is said that there is a limit on the number of tickets for Yuanbao Pavilion, so everyone thought that no matter what, they must get the tickets for the day of the lion auction...
Li Sixu sent people to the busiest teahouses and restaurants in the capital to promote the product with ingenious ideas. People who wanted to get Yuanbao Pavilion tickets showed their special abilities.
On the day of the lion auction, the royal nobles, officials and wealthy businessmen from the capital gathered in the Yuanbao Pavilion, and the bidding scene was in full swing.
The prince of the Qing Dynasty was very fond of rare treasures, and he also coveted the Lion Bear. He finally got the ticket to the Yuanbao Pavilion from Li Sixu, and was stunned when he saw the price of the first Lion Bear.
"Hey, I am still too poor. I can only look at the plum blossoms to quench my thirst."
Li Sixu felt that those who came to Yuanbao Pavilion to compete for treasures today would want to look at the plum blossoms to quench their thirst.
Because he, the emperor's younger brother, brought his unmarried wife Yang Yuhuan to the Yuanbao Pavilion. On the Yuanbao Pavilion's stage were auctioned valuable gems, and sitting next to him was a beauty who looked like a bright pearl on the bright moon.
Yang, who is only twenty-eight years old, has a veil covering her face, but it cannot cover her icy skin, or her slightly plump but still graceful figure.
Just sitting quietly next to Li Hao, she had already attracted several fat-minded wealthy businessmen to look at her.
One was out of curiosity, and the other was because her imperial brother's soon-to-be fiancée was so beautiful that Li Sixu couldn't help but peek at her, wanting to pull off her veil to see her true face.
Li Hao's eyes kept falling on the treasure competition stage. Li Sixu looked at her from time to time. Yang Yuhuan felt a little embarrassed and tugged on his sleeve to remind him.
Seeing that her imperial sister paid a sky-high price regardless of the lion's defeat, but kept looking at his ring?
Prince Qing was puzzled: "Sister Huang?"
"It's nothing. In more than half a month, you and Miss Yang will be married. Sister Huang is thinking about what to give you as a wedding gift."
Li Sixu smiled brightly: "Today I saw Miss Yang, who is like a bright pearl on the bright moon. Sister Huang has thought of what to give you as a wedding gift."
"Just a cat's eye stone you like!"
Afraid that Li Hao wouldn't know what the cat's eye stone she was talking about was, Li Sixu explained: "It's the lion's eye stone. There is one left by the emperor's sister as a wedding gift for you. People who are like bright moon pearls deserve rare gems." That’s what makes it worthy.”
"Sister Huang is so complimentary!"
Yang Yuhuan, who was veiled, looked slightly shy.
What he dreamed of was obtained at his fingertips. Li Hao was so excited that he almost shouted.
It was Li Sixu who reminded him. Realizing that he was in Yuanbao Pavilion at this moment, Li Hao tried his best to endure it. He held Li Sixu's arm and said excitedly: "Sister Huang, you are really my dear sister, in heaven and on earth, sister Huang." He is the person who treats me best in this life.”
Li Hao continued to express his sincerity, but Li Sixu disliked him: "You're a worthless guy!"
"Hey hey hey..."
Li Hao giggled for a while, but Li Sixu sighed inwardly.
Although her imperial brother has a graceful appearance like a jade tree orchid, he is a perfect match for the beauty beside him.
But I don’t know if I can keep her in the end?
In the script, the reason why her father took a fancy to this beauty was because she looked a bit like his lost favorite concubine Wu Hui. However, because of her anomaly, her imperial brother’s mother-in-law was only promoted to Wu Chongyuan. , he was rejected by his father and sent to Ganye Temple, where he soon died.
Now, the emperor's father is accompanied by his mother and his concubines.
Then after seeing this beauty, will her father act in a manner that disregards human ethics?
The wedding of her imperial brother and Yang Yuhuan was approaching, and Li Sixu originally wanted to give her a few words of advice. At this time, another lion's egg on the auction stage was photographed by a short and stocky businessman.
The man's eyes were full of energy, and he paid a huge price to take the picture of the lion, but his expression remained unchanged.
Li Sixu had already guessed who he was, so she patted her imperial brother's shoulder with pity: "Sister Huang will ask someone to deliver the lion's burden as a wedding gift to your house when she comes back. Please stay with Huanhuan. I’m going to meet someone.”
Li Hao thought that his brother-in-law Li Linhuai had arrived after discussing things with Wang Yuanbao!
Two days ago, he ran to find the emperor's sister and saw that his brother-in-law was staying at the princess's residence. The man who used to be a serious man looked at his emperor's sister with eyes as soft as a puddle of water.
There were pastry crumbs on the corner of the emperor's sister's mouth. His brother-in-law immediately took out his handkerchief and subconsciously tried to wipe it off for her. Seeing that he was aside, he had to stop his action and just handed the handkerchief to the emperor's sister.
I have to admire his royal sister's way of training her husband!
Li Hao, who received the lion's coat as a wedding gift, smiled broadly at the veiled Yang Yuhuan, and then saw her imperial sister walking towards the businessman who took the picture of the lion's coat.
"Why does my imperial sister look at that person differently?"
Prince Qing was a little strange.
Yang Yuhuan answered gently: "I think that person is very important to Sister Huang."
Indeed, as Yang Yuhuan guessed, the businessman, who was ordinary in appearance, short in stature but with bright eyes, was a very important person to Li Sixu.
He is the head of the Lin family, Lin Luan, who Li Sixu has always wanted to meet.
The family behind this person has been making a living from maritime trade since the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
