Su Xuan smiled, "Since you like it, I'll show you around."
The countess nodded, "Okay."
About an hour later, the countess came to bid farewell, and Zhu Lan handed over the prepared gifts. Seeing the sparkling eyes of the countess, Zhu Lan's mood also improved a little.
Su Xuan sent the countess back, "Mother, she wants to buy my merchant ship."
Zhulan, "Does she have the money?"
Although the contact time was very short, she found out that the countess was not rich and obviously did not inherit much property.
Su Xuan admired her mother-in-law's ability to observe very much. The first time she received a gift, she didn't realize that the countess was not wealthy. If it wasn't for a candid conversation today, she would have to observe for some time, "No, so I want to give it to me in a few years. "
Zhulan became interested, "Instalment?"
When Su Xuan heard this, it was a very precise word, "Yes, she doesn't take advantage of me. Before I pay it off, I own 20% of the merchant ship's profits until I pay off the money."
Zhulan asked, "How much do you know about this countess?"
Su Xuan, "All I know is what she said. She told me frankly that she did not inherit many gold coins, but only a small piece of land."
That's why she dared to go to a place full of gold, obviously this is a very daring girl.
In the following days, Su Xuan was very busy, and Zhulan would pay attention sometimes.
In the household department, the Emperor Taishang took Zhou Shuren to change into civilian clothes and went out, and the two came to the place with the most foreigners.
Zhou Shuren couldn't guess the intention of the Emperor Taishang, "What do you want to buy?"
The Emperor Taishang shook his head, "I just want to see more."
Zhou Shuren was not very interested in the things in the foreign shop, and there were no good things in modern times. After a few glances, he followed behind the Emperor Taishang.
The Emperor Taishang visited a few shops and said, "Today I will also try a foreign restaurant."
This Zhou Shuren knew that when the restaurant first opened, the capital was quite a sensation, and everyone was curious, and no matter how expensive it was, he had to try it himself.
This caused, although the taste is not as good as the delicate dishes, there are quite a lot of people in this foreign restaurant.
The Emperor Taishang had also heard of it, holding a knife and fork in his hand, and looking at the lamb chops in front of him, frowning and having nowhere to put the knife.
Zhou Shuren may not have held a knife and fork for a long time, um, very unfamiliar, looking at the lamb chops, um, he really has no appetite.
The Emperor Taishang didn't want to embarrass himself, he put down the knife and fork, but he didn't want to see the imperial doctor after eating, "The Emperor is going to send people to stay abroad."
Zhou Shuren drank coffee, and let it go. The coffee was still good, "It's good, there are many foreigners living in the capital now in the post house."
The Emperor Taishang frowned as he watched Zhou Shuren drinking the dark coffee one by one, "Is it not bitter?"
At that time, foreigners gave a lot of them, and after tasting them, they didn’t want to drink any more.
Zhou Shuren, "It's okay, the taste is quite unique."
The Emperor Taishang's eyes were strange, and Zhou Shuren's taste was really special, "There are quite a few in the palace, I will give you some later."
Zhou Shuren thought that he didn't want it for nothing, "Thank you Taishang Huang."
The Emperor Taishang continued: "It can be reincarnated in the past few years."
Zhou Shuren is very shrewd, the Emperor Taishang will not tell him this for no reason, "What do you want to say to the minister?"
The emperor said: "Your second son, I think it's good, and the emperor is also very optimistic about him."
The last time Zhou Changyi sold ships, Zhou Changyi showed his ability to do things, and Zhou Changyi's language was good, coupled with the study of foreigners, he and the emperor delineated Zhou Changyi.
Zhou Shuren touched the coffee cup with his fingertips, "Changyi's official rank is not high."
The Emperor Taishang saw through Zhou Shuren at a glance, "It's really not high, but he is the second son of the earl, and this status is enough."
Zhou Shuren, "..."
Oh, he has always been called Lord Zhou, and he has forgotten that he is an earl.
The Emperor Taishang said again, "If he wants to lead the team, he must be able to suppress people."
Zhou Shuren looked at the Emperor Taishang expectantly. The meaning of these words is that his son can be promoted!
On the contrary, the Emperor Taishang stopped talking, took a sip from the coffee cup, and then pretended to force it. It was so bitter that his face was distorted.
Zhou Shuren, "..."
He really wanted to laugh.
Today Zhou Shuren understood what the Emperor Taishang meant by looking for him, let him breathe in advance, and let Changyi take the initiative.
After dinner, Zhou Shuren left a few sons behind and told Changyi what the emperor thought, "This is your chance. Of course, if you don't want to go, Dad doesn't force you."
It all depends on Changyi's own choice. He is only responsible for building the ladder in the future.
Changyi asked, "Dad, do you know which country you are going to?"
Zhou Shuren asked back, "So what if you know?"
Changyi knew that his question was a bit silly. Indeed, what if he didn't know? Changyi thought about it carefully. For several years, this meant that his daughter was getting married, his father might not be at home, and he would have to be separated from his daughter-in-law for a few years.
Zhulan knew in her heart that both the Emperor and the Emperor Taishang knew that there would not be many people who took the initiative to go there, so they communicated with Zhou Shuren in advance. In a strange country, Chinese people are really inferior to foreigners when it comes to rushing into the country. It is better to be an official in their own country. Anyone can do it.
Boss Zhou opened his mouth, his eldest brother couldn't help his younger brother.
Changzhi thought a lot, if the second brother agreed, as long as he came back, he would be promoted.
Changyi naturally knew that if he followed the steps, he would be promoted very slowly. Thinking of his two sons, Changyi clenched his fingers slowly, "Father, my son wants to go."
Zhou Shuren snorted, he had planned this for his second son back then, but now he is the most calm, "You can accomplish your small goals ahead of schedule this year."
Changyi understood, "Is your son going to be promoted?"
"Nine times out of ten."
The entanglement in Changyi's heart is gone, as long as he can be promoted, all difficulties can be overcome.
Zhulan watched the changes of her second son, man.
Zhou Shuren instructed his sons to know it by themselves, so as not to leak the news.
In the days that followed, the emperor also made a move. He saw many foreign officials stationed in the post one after another, and the shrewd can guess one or two.
Ming Yun finally returned to the capital, Zhu Lan held on to her eldest grandson's clothes, "Ming Yun has been wronged and lost weight."
Mingyun touched his stomach, "Grandma, my grandson is not thin."
Instead, he gained some weight Zhulan, "Nonsense, obviously he's thin."
Li also answered, with tears in her eyes, "The Zhao family who killed a thousand knives bullied my son, but the one who bullied my son lost two laps."
Mingyun, "..."
He still didn't speak, the more he said, the thinner he became.
Seeing that the food was served, Zhulan said, "The little servant came back early to report, and grandma asked the kitchen to prepare it. You must be hungry, come and eat."
Mingyun is not hungry, really not hungry, he has eaten all the way back in the carriage, and now his stomach is full.
Just facing my grandmother and mother, after a moment of silence, I sat down to eat honestly.
Ming Teng shook his shoulders a few times, and it was very interesting to see the big brother crying without tears.
