Chapter 684: The Princess Arrives
Guo Dan just happened to save the princess, and if it were anyone, regardless of men or women, Guo Dan would also save it, in fact, it was very normal, and it was not an unusual thing.
But the ending is very dramatic.
However, this dramatization is an inevitability, and the premise is that you want to solve the problem.
In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, as long as you want to solve the problem, you can only go to dramatization, otherwise, you can't solve it at all.
Because ideas and classes are beginning to solidify.
Anyway, this matter can be regarded as having a result, although for Guo Dan, it is not the best result, the best result is that the Queen Mother does not take his advice, and he actually doesn't want to cause trouble.
But it's better than hanging there.
Guo Dan, who returned to Yaxing, finally began to focus on trading, this accident really delayed him a lot, and he didn't dare to go out now, because the matter about him and the princess was still fermenting.
There is a lot of gossip outside.
There is also the reason why Wanli suddenly became a minister, those ministers suffered a loss, how could they give up, although they didn't dare to shout in front of Wanli, but they thought, okay! For the sake of the face of your royal family, if you beat us, then you will regret it.
They were secretly frantically promoting this matter, just to force Wanli to take the initiative to talk to them.
But their plan is destined not to succeed, because Wanli doesn't need them as mouthpieces now, he has Guo Dan's people's livelihood newspaper, and he can intervene in it at any time and influence public opinion.
In fact, Guo Dan has a lot to do this year, the most important thing is to fully involve in commodity trading.
During this period, Kou Zhuan Sha has been busy, and the main job is to raise funds, and commodities can not be solved by hundreds of thousands, at least hundreds of thousands of taels.
But how to spend this money is still up to Guo Dan.
The lady raises money, and the husband spends money.
It's really a husband and a wife!
"I have looked at the financial situation of Nanjing Qianzhuang in recent days, and the local textile workshops are developing well, and the output has more than doubled."
"Of course."
Kou Zhuansha said: "Because of the cooperation contract with us, the silk they produce is not afraid to be sold, and it will soon be able to be exchanged for silver taels, and they don't need to worry too much." However, we have only raised more than 500,000 taels at present, and we still have to buy porcelain, and I am afraid that this money will not be enough. ”
Guo Dan suddenly remembered something, and said, "That's right! I almost forgot to tell you that Your Majesty has handed over all the fifty-eight porcelain workshops in Jingdezhen to me. ”
Kou Zhuansha looked startled and said, "Really? ”
Guo Dan nodded and said, "Your Majesty will also take advantage of the fact that King Lu is about to become a vassal domain, and all the porcelain produced this year will be shipped to King Lu's Mansion, which can save us a lot of money." ”
Kou Zhuisa nodded lightly and said, "If that's the case, then we will indeed be much easier." ”
Guo Dan smiled bitterly: "It's not easy, because Your Majesty doesn't want others to do it, we have to find a way to open a porcelain workshop by ourselves, about this, I don't know what Madame thinks, you know, I don't know anything about porcelain." ”
Kou Zhuansha sighed for a while, and said: "I can only distinguish porcelain, and I don't know how to fire porcelain, but I think someone in Jingdezhen must know that many porcelain craftsmen there are from all over the country, and some of them must know where to fire porcelain, we can send someone to Jingdezhen to inquire, and then take the money out and find some craftsmen to go to various places to fire porcelain, so that no one will find out about us." ”
Guo Dan nodded and said: "This idea is not bad, just do it, I will ask the Minister of Internal Affairs to help me arrange this matter." ”
Knock knock!
A knock on the door interrupted their conversation.
"What's the matter?"
Kou Zhuisa asked.
The secretary outside replied: "President, King Lu is here, saying that he is looking for the general manager." ”
"It's ghostly!"
Guo Dan rolled his eyes.
Kou Liansha pursed her lips and smiled, and then advised: "Recently, King Lu and the little uncle have often argued with others outside because of the princess, husband, don't get involved, after all, our identity is not as good as others." ”
Guo said lightly: "Madame, don't worry, unless Your Majesty orders it, otherwise, I will hide as far as I can." ”
When I came downstairs, I saw Zhu Yiquan sitting on the sofa eating and drinking as if he was at home.
"Lord Wang, why do you have time to come to me today?"
Guo Dan stepped forward and sat opposite Zhu Yihua.
Zhu Yihua glanced at him slightly, and said with a gloomy smile: "Guo Dan, you are really bold enough to let my sister come to your tooth shop to do things." ”
Guo Dan was not surprised, he knew that the Queen Mother would definitely tell Zhu Yihua, after all, this guy was a frequent visitor to the tooth shop, and he couldn't hide it, and he could protect Princess Yongning for the time being, and said with a wry smile: "Lord Wang, if I had the courage to do it, I wouldn't want this way, I was just timid, and I was afraid that the Queen Mother would blame, so I racked my brains to come up with this solution." ”
Zhu Yihua suddenly smiled and said: "This king didn't say that you were wrong, this king thought, you don't want to help this king think of a way, so that this king can be both a vassal and free." ”
"Stop!"
Guo Dan reflexively raised his hand and said: "Lord Wang, you really think that my life is too long, and you want to put me to death, when I came up with this idea, I was terrified, and if you still come, then I won't live." ”
Zhu Yihua squinted at him.
"Don't you learn from the little uncle, okay?" Guo Dan said depressedly.
Zhu Yihua said: "This king said that you have bad intentions. ”
Guo Dan was stunned and said, "Where to start?" ”
Zhu Yihua said: "My sister, you will agree, I will not agree, you are clearly plotting against you, no wonder people outside say that you are ...... with my sister!" ”
"Lord Wang."
Guo Dan directly interrupted him and said, "I'm afraid you've been arguing with them lately." You know better than anyone what this is going on, and when you say this, have you ever thought about how your sister has to feel? ”
Zhu Yihua suddenly glanced at Guo Dan with a weak heart: "Don't tell my sister about this later." ”
"Hmm. Well? ”
Guo Dan suddenly looked at Zhu Yihua and said, "Your sister will come later?" ”
Zhu Yihua nodded and said, "That's right!" It was sent to her secretly by this king, but this king is not good to bring her in directly, you have a lot of rules and regulations, and it is not so easy for her to see you. ”
"I'll go!"
Guo Dan suddenly got up and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Zhu Yihua said with an innocent face: "I also just found out, this matter is a top secret." ”
Before the words fell, I heard a knock on the door, "General manager, there is a young lady named Li Fangchen who wants to apply for your secretary." ”
Guo Dan came back to prepare, in fact, it was just such a thing, recruiting secretaries externally, because he didn't have ordinary positions, he usually didn't apply for them directly, and he didn't dare to let Princess Yongning do the key positions.
Guo Dan asked in a low voice, "Your sister?" ”
Zhu Yihua nodded.
Guo said lightly: "Let her wait for a while, I am now receiving distinguished guests." ”
Zhu Yihua's eyes widened, and he got up and said, "Guo Dan, you .......!" ”
Guo Dan said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, you use your brain to think about it, you are here, I will interview the secretary, is this reasonable?" Why don't you shy away from it? ”
Zhu Yihua said: "What am I avoiding? The queen mother asked me to protect my sister secretly, and I can't leave now, in case you secretly bully her. ”
I'm the general manager, she's the secretary, do I still need to be secretly bullied? It's hilarious. Guo smiled lightly: "Okay, okay, whatever you want." ”
He shouted outside again, "Miss Li, please come in." ”
With that, he went to sit down behind the desk, and Zhu Yihua also hurriedly followed, sat at the desk, and carefully looked at the chair next to him to see if it was clean.
Guo Dan looked at him in surprise, and said in his heart, do you think I will invite her to sit next to you? You're thinking about fart, why do you think everyone is on an equal footing with you?
After a while, the knock on the door rang again.
"Please come in."
I saw the little secretary push open the door, "Miss Li, please come inside." ”
Zhu Yihua hurriedly looked back.
I saw an elegant and beautiful woman walking in from outside.
It is Princess Zhu Yaoyuan of Yongning, who has now changed her name to Li Fangchen.
However, the sorrow between her eyebrows was not dissipated, and her face was pale, which really made me feel pity, and it didn't look like she was coming for an interview, but as if she was coming to see a doctor.
Actually, I also came to see a doctor.
Guo Dan muttered to himself, the Queen Mother is really, she is in such a hurry, she will come back after she recovers, if I fall ill here, then what should I do.
But I don't know that the Empress Dowager Li didn't want her to come so early, it was the princess herself who asked for it, when the Empress Dowager Li told her this idea, she immediately agreed, and couldn't wait to come out, she really didn't want to go back to the palace, she was fed up with the endless loneliness, fed up with the shackles brought to her by the princess's identity.
Zhu Yihua grinned at Zhu Yao.
Xiaoxiao looked at it in her eyes, and secretly worried about Li Fangchen, this Miss Li was really unlucky, she met King Lu, she was born with such a look, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the clutches of King Lu!
But with a smile on his face, he handed a document to Guo Dan, "General manager, this is Miss Li's information." ”
Guo Dan took the information and said, "You go out first." ”
"Yes."
After Xiaoxiao went out, Zhu Yihua quickly stood up, and when he was about to invite Zhu Yaoyuan to sit down, he suddenly heard Guo Dan say lightly: "Your name is Li Fangchen?" ”
Zhu Yihua looked back, only to see Guo Dan's style of general manager, and suddenly felt incredible, this world is all my old Zhu family, my Zhu family is standing, you are sitting, aren't you afraid of sitting down and having an accident?
"Lord Wang, I'm interviewing the secretary right now, if you have anything, please do it."
Guo Dan looked up at Zhu Yiyan and said.
Zhu Yi was furious, pointing at Guo Dan, his mouth had just opened, and Zhu Yaoyuan suddenly said: "Yes, my name is Li Fangchen." ”
But it was like a mosquito moaning.
Zhu Yihua turned his head violently and looked at Zhu Yaoyuan, with a tangled face, but in the end he endured it, sat on the chair with his ass, and glared at Guo Dan angrily, as if to say, don't go too far, you kid.
Guo Dan didn't look at him at all, and asked Zhu Yaoyuan again: "Miss Li, you are here to apply for the position of secretary today, so I don't know if you know anything about the position of secretary?" ”
Zhu Yaoyuan shook her head, and a trace of redness appeared on her sickly white cheeks.
"No, it doesn't matter, because the position of secretary is only available to us, and many people don't know about it." Guo Dan asked again: "Then what will you do?" ”
Zhu Yaowu shook her head, this time she even lowered her head.
She has never been in contact with the outside society, no matter what you ask her, she is confused and very nervous.
Zhu Yihua couldn't help it, pressed his fists on his thighs, and looked at Guo Dan angrily.
Guo Dan didn't look at her at all, and asked again: "Then do you know how to count and read?" ”
Zhu Yaoyuan still shook her head.
Guo Dan was immediately dumbfounded.
The princess turned out to be illiterate?
Oops! I didn't understand it clearly in advance, this time it was embarrassing, and it was impossible for Lao Tzu to recruit an illiterate secretary to be a secretary, it would be easy to arouse suspicion from others, and I was famous ...... my life. Guo Dan was immediately depressed.
Zhu Yihua was in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Sister... Miss Li, you... Didn't you hear clearly, he said that he could read and write, you should know how to do it. ”
"Literacy?"
Zhu Yaoyao raised her head, looked at Guo Dan, and then at Zhu Yihua, and then nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and the blush on her face was even worse.
Guo Dan let out a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine." "I thought, forget it, forget it, let's just leave it at that, and then ask if she will faint nervously.
He shouted outside, "Tiny." ”
With a squeak, the door opened, and Xiao Xiao walked in.
Guo Dan said: "You go and get some of the regulations of our tooth shop." ”
"Yes."
Zhu Yaoyuan secretly glanced at Xiaoxiao, and saw that she was younger than herself, but she was so capable and confident, she couldn't help but be ashamed of herself, and ordinary depressed people were very inferior.
She didn't know that Xiaoxiao was also very envious of her, with such a look, what kind of secretary should she be, she would have hooked up with the general manager a long time ago.
After a while, Xiaoxiao came over with a stack of Yaxing's charters and handed it to Guo Dan.
Guo Dan didn't answer, but said, "To Miss Li, you take her to post these charters to various departments." ”
Syllable!
Zhu Yihua really couldn't bear it anymore, patted the table, and Huo Ran got up.
Who are you pointing fingers at?
Suddenly, I heard someone outside: "Two sons, my aunt is really not here." ”
Guo Dan and Zhu Yihua looked out of the door at the same time.
I saw two or three people appearing in front of the door.
"Guo Dan!"
"And said that your uncle is not here."
I saw the two sons push away De Xiao'an, who was blocking in front of him, and strode in.
