Chapter 709, rise to fame
Just when Xiao Yeyang hurried back to the city, the morning meeting had already begun.
Compared with the usual quiet when going to court, the emperor found that today’s officials were whispering to each other. After sitting on the dragon chair, he couldn’t help but ask: “What are you talking about, so lively?”
Jiang Shizi groaned for a moment and stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty Qi, everyone is talking about Four Seasons Villa. Yesterday, Lao Wang Ye and Princess Hui Jia held a flower viewing party in Tangyu Mountain. They met the host of Shengping County who came to Beijing to see it with their own eyes. Then she stayed at Four Seasons Villa."
The emperor had received a secret report about Gu Jian and Daohua's coming to Beijing, and he smiled lightly and said, "What is there to discuss?"
Jiang Shizi thought that when his daughter got married, he wanted to ask the emperor to reward his daughter as a dowry at Four Seasons Villa with hot spring waterfalls. He was rejected by the emperor. He couldn't help but asked: "The emperor, when will Four Seasons Villa give Shengping a reward? The county owner?"
Isn't his daughter better than the county lord of Shengping who came from a poor family?
The emperor had a cold face and said indifferently: "Jiang Shizi, are you questioning me? I want to reward a Zhuangzi to others, do I need a prophet to speak to you?"
This is a bit too serious. When Jiang Shizi heard this, he felt aroused in his heart, and he knelt down: "The emperor is aware of this, the minister does not mean that. Four Seasons Villa has risen to prominence in the past two years. Love Dai, the minister always thought that only the emperor could do such a thing."
Hearing this, Yang Chenghua, Wu Jingyi and others couldn't help but look at Jiang Shizi.
This is a small comment
The emperor looked at Jiang Shizi silently, and then he spoke for a long time: "The Yan family has made great achievements in farming. I am very pleased with this. Since he took the throne, I have encouraged everyone to study farming. Unfortunately, it has been unsatisfactory. "
"Agriculture is an important matter of people's livelihood. The Yan family can help me and the people of Daxia here. Naturally, I must give a good reward. I am even more happy if the Yan family can sell high-yield seeds without increasing prices. You can all be like the Yan family, so why not worry about the summer?"
Listening to the emperor’s words, the weight of the Yan family in Baiguan’s heart has increased by another place.
After , the emperor did not ask Jiang Shizi to get up, so he left him on his knees to finish the early court.
Jin Lingwei was well-informed, and Xiao Ye had just returned to the city, and someone told him what had happened to him.
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a while after learning about it, and then he recruited capable men and asked them to secretly spread the news that the Yan family was the owner of the Four Seasons Seed Shop.
Of course, this opportunity to improve reputation has to be put to good use.
The weak foundation of the Yan family is flawed. The foundation needs to be accumulated little by little, but reputation can be quickly gained as long as it is used properly.
Although he and Inahua visited the hall in front of his grandmother, he also knew that his two matters had to be settled in front of the world, and I was afraid that there would be some twists and turns.
One of the easiest to talk about is the Yan family’s family background.
Fortunately, his one is smart and capable. When he was still fighting in northern Xinjiang, she made a wave of fame for the Yan family by donating medicine and food.
When Daohua was going to open a shop in Beijing, he really did not expect that the two small shops could gain such a big effect.
This is mainly because Xiao Yeyang didn’t know much about farming and didn’t understand what high-yield seeds meant to the people.
Originally, things about Four Seasons Villa were only passed between honored honoraries and officials. With Xiao Yeyang's intervention, the people soon knew it.
High-yield seeds improved the people’s harvest. Knowing that it was provided by the Yan family, the Yan family’s reputation once again increased.
If it is said that the Yan family was little known when they entered Beijing before, nowadays, people in Beijing can say two things about the Yan family, and most of them are still good.
Xiao Yeyang did not enter the palace immediately, but first returned to Jin Lingwei. Once he arrived, everyone in Jin Lingwei could feel his good mood.
No way, Xiao Yeyang was very serious when doing errands, and there weren’t many times when he had a smile on his face like today.
Everyone looked at them curiously. After a while, Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao also came to see it.
With sharp eyes, Yan Wenkai noticed the tooth marks on Xiao Yeyang’s neck, his eyes widened, and he grabbed Xiao Yeyang: "Who bit the tooth marks on your neck? You went to a private meeting with the beautiful lady last night. ?"
Before Xiao Yeyang could say anything, Yan Wentao patted Yan Wenkai's forehead: "What nonsense?"
Yan Wenkai quickly pointed to Xiao Yeyang’s neck: "Who is talking nonsense, third brother, look for yourself!"
Yan Wentao of course also noticed the tooth marks on Xiao Yeyang's neck, and he frowned and looked at Xiao Yeyang disapprovingly.
Xiao Yeyang dismissed Yan Wenkai in disgust: "If you have something to say, don't pull it." As he said, he pulled the collar to hide his teeth.
Yan Wenkai asked curiously: "Who gave you a bite? The courage is enough! The key is to bite it!"
Yan Wentao looked at the gossip-faced fourth brother speechlessly, and saw that Xiao Yeyang took out the materials that had been investigated recently and prepared to go out, and couldn’t help asking, “Where are you going?”
Xiao Yeyang: "Please enter the palace and ask for a marriage."
Leaving such a sentence, people walk away quickly.
Yan Wenkai was stunned, and asked Yan Wentao, "Yeyang wants to ask for a marriage? Whom does he want to marry?"
Yan Wentao gave him a white look: "What do you mean?" After speaking, he left, leaving Yan Wenkai standing alone.
After a while, Yan Wenkai patted his brain fiercely.
Who else can be, of course the big sister!
Yan Wenkai touched his chin, so that said, the tooth marks on Yeyang’s neck were left by his elder sister? !
Thinking of this, Yan Wenkai no longer calmed down: "Yeyang, this must be bullying the elder sister, no, I have to go to the third brother."
Just as Yan Wentao was about to take people to the prison of the Ministry of Justice, he saw Yan Wenkai rushing over like a gust of wind.
Yan Wenkai waved away from his men, took Yan Wentao to the corner, and said with a look of eagerness and resentment: "Yeyang bullies the elder sister, we can't leave it alone!"
Yan Wentao asked faintly: "What do you want to do?"
Yan Wenkai choked: "I will join hands and give a lesson to Ye Yang."
Yan Wentao: "Are you sure it is not against being taught?"
Yan Wenkai is a little weak. Every time he talks with Yeyang, he is the one who is abused: "Then we can't just leave it alone?"
Yan Wentao sighed: "Is my sister so good to be bullied? You can't hurt Yeyang even a bit. Our sister broke his face as soon as she took action."
said, ignoring Yan Wenkai, greeted the waiting staff and left quickly.
Although he does not agree that Daohua and Yeyang are too close, but they have already visited the hall, it seems that being close is nothing at all?
Hubei.
Yan Zhigao did not attend the court meeting today. When he came, he found that everyone was enthusiastic about him. When the Hubu Shangshu came back, Sun Chang came directly and pulled him to Shangshu.
Seeing Hubu Shangshu and Sun Chang both staring at him, Yan Zhigao smiled wryly: "I wonder what is going on when you come to an official?"
Hubei Shangshu looked at Yan Zhigao faintly: "Yan Shilang, you ran fast enough yesterday."
Yan Zhigao smiles a bit embarrassed, don’t you want to wait to be questioned?
God knows how surprised he was when he saw the eldest daughter’s carriage yesterday! ! !
Sun Chang smiled and made rounds: "Brother Zhou, the business of Siji Fruit and Vegetable Shop and Siji Seed Shop is so good, you don't want people to know it. I understand that Master Shangshu."
"Not to mention others, even I like to eat the fruits and vegetables sold at Four Seasons Fruit and Vegetable Shop. Unfortunately, the amount you can buy is too small each time. If someone wants to come to you for appetite, you can't do it."
"Four Seasons Seed Shop, let alone, I don't know how your family grows things. The quality of the seeds is too good, and the yield per mu is much higher than other seeds. The only drawback is that the quantity is sold too little."
"People like us have more or less fields at home, but the seeds they buy each time are enough to grow a few acres. Of course, we all know that your family does this to allow more people to buy seeds. We all understand."
"The two shops sell good things that are in short supply. The identity of your owner is really hard to be known. Otherwise, the people who come to your relationship every day will annoy you to death."
Yan Zhigao quickly corrected: "Sun Shilang, I want to declare that I am not the owner of the shop, my daughter is."
Sun Chang and Hubu Shangshu looked at each other, feeling a little speechless.
Isn’t Lao Tzu given all the daughter’s things?
Yan Zhigao continued: "I didn't lie to the two before. I didn't really know about the Four Seasons Villa and the two shops. Our family has always been enlightened, and I never interfere with my children."
If it was before, he might not have said so bluntly, but now he already knows the popularity of the two shops, just like Sun Chang said, someone will definitely come to him for a relationship.
He often does business abroad, and he knows a lot of people, but he still can’t be pushed back. If they all come to him, the daughter’s shop can’t be opened yet?
He shirks and doesn't care about it, so he asks his daughter if he is embarrassed, but he wants to see if they are willing to accept that old face?
Hube Shangshu looked at Yan Zhigao suspiciously, and said in his heart, this new subordinate is very slippery.
Don’t say, Yan Zhigao said so, he really couldn’t open his mouth to ask for the fruits and vegetables sold by Four Seasons Fruit and Vegetable Shop.
Sun Chang also looked disappointed.
Sure enough, many officials later came to Yan Zhigao, but they were all excused by Yan Zhigao's reason for not asking his children.
In the afternoon, when Yan Zhigao returned to the house, he only felt that he didn't want to say anything. After drinking several cups of tea, he eased up, and said to Mrs. Li with a sigh: "My daughter is so capable and sad. "
Mrs. Li laughed: "Master, you will be content."
Thinking of the alienation and politeness of the people before, and thinking about the flattery of the people today, Yan Zhigao laughed and said, "Yes, I should be content."
Ms. Li asked, "Why didn’t the master ask Yiyi when he would be back yesterday?"
Yan Zhigao waved his hand: “You don’t know the situation at the time. It’s hard for me to go to Four Seasons Villa. Besides, every time I see the old man, I feel a little frustrated.”
Mrs. Li Nahan: "Why is this?"
Yan Zhigao sighed: "Why do you say?" Thinking of the identity of the old man, thinking of their family's involvement in the royal secrets, his heart couldn't calm down.
