Yan zisong was a merchant, but also a shrewd and ambitious merchant. However, he also knew that the Yan family was nothing in the business circles of Nanyue state, and there were few officials in the family, which could be said to have a very shallow foundation. Even when he arrived in the capital city and set up a comprehensive commercial building represented by Lady square under the proposal of Gu Qianxue, he was finally suppressed by the imperial merchants and was in great distress for a time.
Just when Yan zisong was about to roll back to Yangchuan City, the city of Guandong rebelled. With his powerful weapon against the sky, Lord Zhao attacked Nanyue state, and then established Dongyue state.
His hometown, Yangchuan City, was also captured by Dongyue state. For a time, he was in a dilemma. However, under the leadership of the emperor merchants of Nanyue state, a group of Beijing merchants had long been disgusted with Yan zisong, a foreigner. They attacked Yan zisong while he lost his business base in his hometown.
When Yan zisong was faced with extinction, the emperor of Dongyue sent a letter to invite him to return to his hometown of Yangchuan City, and invited him to become the emperor of Dongyue.
Yan zisong naturally seemed to have caught the driftwood in the sea and hurriedly took his family and property under the cover of Dongyue people.
When I saw the prince and princess in Kanto City, Shengsheng was shocked.
Isn't that King Li and princess Qianxue?
Li Wang didn't care. It was the princess Qianxue who was not someone else. He was the one who entrusted him to sell cosmetics and instruct lady's house. He was an old acquaintance!
Yan zisong immediately decided that he would take root in Dongyue and become an emperor.
To Yan zisong's delight, the Dongyue country did not attach importance to agriculture but suppressed commerce, even encouraged business, and even encouraged the creation of foreign exchange, that is, to sell Dongyue's goods to other countries. It was a paradise for merchants!
But at the same time, one of the worst things about Dongyue was monogamy. By the time of the founding of the people's Republic of China, those who had concubines before the founding of the people's Republic of China had concubines. However, after the founding of the people's Republic of China, men were not allowed to take concubines. They could only marry one wife for their whole life. They could not repair their wives or husbands. They had to talk with each other. However, those who have wives can only marry others if they are widowed or divorced. Once they find concubines, they will be punished as bigamy, which not only requires a huge fine, but also faces imprisonment.
Fortunately, according to the law, you can go to the kiln. It is not necessary to ask more questions about the establishment of this monogamy system. It can be guessed that it is Gu Qianxue's request. In fact, Gu Qianxue originally wanted to ban brothels, but Gong LINGJI suggested that people should not be forced to be cruel at once. After all, the foundation of Dongyue country is not stable.
As a result, the men of Dongyue state could not take concubines. In addition to their wives, they could only go to brothels.
Because of the ban on concubines, brothel business is booming. Gu Qianxue has no choice but to train a large number of medical women to deal with the related diseases, and requires regular physical examination of brothel women.
This brothel will be banned sooner or later, but it has to be done slowly and step by step.
Because of the war, too many men were lost, resulting in the situation of more boys and girls, and monogamy was doomed to have many women unable to marry out.
On this point, Gu Qianxue made a shocking regulation, which shocked the public, even Gong lingshe was also shocked - recruit female soldiers!
The women soldiers on the front line are not the real bombers! Just when everyone thought that the female soldier was nonsense, Gu Qianxue ordered Chu Yan to train the female soldiers in person and increase their salary. The women took the money and were hard to train day and night. For a time, their physique was even improved to match that of men.
In fact, women are not as weak as many people think. On weekdays, they also work hard in the fields.
In addition to female soldiers, women's positions have been increased in ordnance factories and ironworks.
It can be said that although the status of women in Dongyue country can not reach the height of modern China, it is far ahead in this era.
What is male superior to female? Women are not used to men's problems because of their income and economic foundation. For a time, women's rights movement rose.
When Yan zisong was waiting in the main hall, he thought about the beauty of the princess. He was still fascinated by the princess in those years. Tut Tut, if the princess had taken a fancy to him, would he be Yan zisong now?
In a short period of time, the servant outside the door announced in a loud voice that the prince and princess arrived.
Yan zisong hastily took back the imagination, got up to see the ceremony, "the grass people have seen her royal highness, the princess is thousand years old and thousand years old."
Gu Qianxue casually waved, "excuse me, let's get to the point today."
Yan zisong suddenly had a bad premonition.
Gu Qianxue squeezed his eyes, "there is a kind of goods, dare you sell it?" There was a touch of provocation in that look.
They are also old acquaintances. When there are no outsiders, Gu Qianxue has no airs at all, so they feel more like friends when they get along.
Yan zisong picked her eyebrows and said, "Oh, there is nothing I dare not sell in this world. Crown princess, what kind of goods are they?"
"Shells."
“……”
"Well?"
"What?"
"Shells." "Oh, my God." Suddenly, Yan zisong fell down from the chair and climbed up in a hurry, pointing to his nose, "princess, do you want me to sell shells? Are you kidding me? Now only Beili country is selling itIt was sold by the emperor of the northern Li state. I am a small businessman Even if they were emperor merchants, they could not sell shells? "
Gu Qianxue rolled his eyes, "really cowardly." Yan zisong took a deep breath, "Wei? Hum, I don't know how to write the word "Wei"! All right, I'll sell this shell! " The voice stopped abruptly. Then he looked calm and looked at Gu Qianxue seriously. "Let's not make trouble, princess.
it's really inappropriate for me to sell. Although I'm an emperor merchant, I'm a business at all. It's different from an official."
"Who said you were not an official?" Looking at the snow.
"Eh?" Yan zisong is stiff.
Gu Qianxue gradually showed a smile, "I will soon propose to the emperor and the crown prince that a commercial department should be established, which, together with the six departments, can be divided into seven parts. The official position is second grade, that is to say, the post of secretary of the second grade commercial department should be established. I wonder if you are interested in it?"
Gu Qianxue's voice has not yet fallen, Yan zisong has flopped to his knees, "thank the crown princess for cultivation!"
"Er..." Gu Qianxue took a puff at the corner of his mouth and found that his brain was really good! Quick reaction, bold and careful! At the same time, she was glad to receive Yan zisong and become her own.
Gu Qianxue smile slowly convergence, look at Yan zisong eyes meaningful, "Yan zisong, you get up first, I have something to say to you."
Yan zisong gets up and sees Gu Qianxue's serious look and serious attitude. "Go ahead, princess."
Gu Qianxue sighed, "do you believe in fate?" "Eh?" Yan zisong's eyes flashed. He reached out and touched his beautiful cheek. He wondered whether the crown princess was in love with himself. Could he not come to the top?
