The news that Yang Reform is going to open an expo can be regarded as a quick spread

As Tian Hongyu expected, the emperor's every move touched the nerves of many people, and this topic caused discussion again.

The city of Beijing is already very cold.

However, the huge flow of people and the heat emitted from all directions have baked this winter a little hot.

On the streets of Beijing, there is a peculiar scenery that decorates this cold Beijing city, which has never been seen in previous years.

These people look fierce, but they are wearing autumn clothes, in this cold winter, they look a little out of place, from time to time to attract passers-by to stop and watch.

The "thin" clothing of these people contrasted sharply with those who shivered with cold in thick cotton clothes.

……

A restaurant upstairs.

A man hurried up.

"Brother Zhang, it's too late, but I'm going to be fined three glasses of wine!" When a person saw that the person he was waiting for had arrived, he immediately greeted him warmly.

"Hehehe, there is no need for wine, drink tea and clear your heart, drink tea and clear your heart, how to ...... with tea instead of wine" The person known as Brother Zhang immediately smiled and wanted to get rid of those glasses of wine.

"Brother Zhang is slippery enough, the difference between this tea and wine is great...... the man said with a smile.

"Hehehe...... okay, since Brother Li insists, then let's drink a few cups in the next place, who calls it late to come down......" The man surnamed Zhang said boldly.

With that, the two of them sat down and began to drink and chat.

"......, Brother Zhang, how do you feel a little ...... in your dress, some, how to say it, why is it a little inappropriate? How does it feel like you are dressed in February and August! Now in this cold winter, Brother Zhang is wearing these clothes, but he feels cold when he looks at it! The person surnamed Li said with curiosity and flattery.

"Hehehe...... there there, ala......s, Brother Li doesn't know, there is a mystery here,...... "The man surnamed Zhang said teasingly. In this city of Beijing, there was a sudden gust of "thin wind", and the more in the cold season, the thinner the clothes, the more energetic and limelight. And the reason for this really thin wind is caused by the almost fire sale of cashmere sweaters and woolen sweaters.

More and more "salary" class, with spare money in hand, can buy more things, woolen sweaters, cashmere sweaters become one of the winter equipment, in the past winter, are relying on cotton clothes to wrap themselves tightly, the whole winter, are "hidden" in the past, only hate cotton clothes are not thick enough, not warm enough, there is no such "thin chic".

Now that I had the money, I could buy better, more advanced warmth, a thin and warm warmth, which soon became the pursuit of the working class. In winter, showing one's "status" and satisfaction with "thin" chic is one of the reasons why "thin outfit" is quickly popular in this winter.

In fact, cashmere, wool, and even better velvet, all kinds of luxurious fur these warm items have long been available, but it is impossible to form this "thin trend", the reason is simple, the previous use of these are dignitaries, are powerful, rich and status people, they are not going out, there are cars or sedan chairs when they go out, it is impossible to wander on the street, so, even with these things, it is impossible to form a "thin storm", not to mention that ancient times have always paid attention to grace and luxury, and "thin" It's not even more on the sidelines. So, these things could not have happened before.

However, now it is different, a large number of wage earners buy and use these warm items, and wage earners often need to run around the streets to make a living, and need to deal with all kinds of people, so that the "thin trend" has become a landscape blowing in this winter, and gradually has the posture of forming a storm. …,

People like this surnamed Zhang may not need to wear such thin clothes, and there may not be better warm items at home, but they also wear such "thin" things, in fact, they are following the trend and following the "trend".

“…… Oh, what's the mystery here? The person surnamed Li asked after him, this is complimenting and flattering, and the person surnamed Li may not know what is going on, but he still asked, or pretending not to know.

“…… The mystery in this is exquisite,...... I didn't ......see it, I didn't ...... it, cashmere lining, woolen sweater, cashmere sweater, and then I wore it inside and I still wore an inner jacket made of cashmere...... just this set, not to mention now, no matter how cold it is, I'm not afraid......" The person surnamed Zhang said jokingly, in fact, he was wearing several layers of cashmere, a warm inner jacket made of wool, and a coat covered with satin on the outside, which was more exquisite, in fact, the average salaried class was made of cotton.

"I see, I see! , no wonder you are so not afraid of the cold, dare to wear these! Amazing, amazing, catch up, let's get one, and it's good to come out and show off ......, otherwise, if you are so bloated, you can't go to the street, it's too old, others don't know and think that we are seventy or eighty, and we must wear thick cotton clothes when we go out......" The man surnamed Li continued to compliment.

"That's, didn't I say it, in this winter, you should wear less, to look spiritual, you see, in the past, in winter, the streets were full of people who wanted to wrap their cotton sleeves at home and go out, but there is a little bit to see? It's like now, dressed so little, and still so energetic, looking at it on the street,...... Hey......, it's good, it's here! They are all several years younger......" the man surnamed Zhang happily flaunted. Indeed, after today's clothing is popular, there is a sharp contrast with the bloated cotton clothes that are full of gray on the street in previous years, giving people a feeling that is indeed very different, giving people a spirit, vitality, and a feeling of yangguan

"That's right, you must get a few clothes in a hurry, otherwise, wear so much, wear so thick, don't say anything about keeping warm, don't dare to enter other people's houses when you go out, for fear of making jokes to others!" The person surnamed Li complimented again.

"That's ......, but ......" Speaking of this, the person surnamed Zhang laughed again, laughing very dirty.

The person surnamed Li also continued to compliment with a dirty face.

“…… Hehe, hehe, if you say that you wear such a good outfit, you still have to go to Goolan Hutong to know ......, brother doesn't know! …… The girls inside, all like to wear this kind of tightly wrapped ......, and warm clothes...... this is called ...... fun, ...... fun" The person surnamed Zhang said with a lewd smile, and when it came to tight, he deliberately stopped for a while.

“…… Hey, hey, that's, that's ......, you have to see and see it in a hurry, Brother Zhang is well-informed! The person surnamed Li also hurriedly smiled lewdly and complimented. It was originally a compliment that didn't smile, but the person surnamed Li thought of the man surnamed Zhang who was wrapped tightly in his heart.

The two of them laughed lewdly for a while, and then they gave up and started talking about business.

"Brother Zhang! I heard that there has been something new in the capital recently...... "The person surnamed Li has flattered and flattered enough, and began to do business and inquire about the news."

"Hey, hey, there's really something new, but I don't know which one Brother Li wants to ask? ......" The man surnamed Zhang still had some dirty lewd smiles on his face.

“…… I heard that His Majesty is going to hold an expo, does Brother Zhang know the inside story? Do you know what's going on? The man surnamed Li immediately asked, to find out the truth inside, and to prepare in advance, it is indeed necessary, it is worth spending money to get these news, sometimes capturing an opportunity is enough to buy a hundred times. …,

"Hehehe, this is easy to say, since I am here, I naturally know what Brother Li wants to know......" The person surnamed Zhang said teasingly.

"Then ......, I don't know if Brother Zhang can reveal a ...... or two," the person surnamed Li hurriedly complimented.

The man surnamed Zhang looked at him smugly, and didn't seem to mean to talk.

When the man surnamed Li saw this appearance, he thought about it for a while, and he already understood in his heart.

“…… Hehehe, it's easy to say......" After speaking, he took out the things that had been prepared from his pocket.

The man's eyebrows opened a little. He weighed what he was holding and tucked it into his sleeve. Then he salivated and said, "...... Hey, hey, hey,...... The girls in the Goolan Hutong are wearing those clothes! …… Wrapped tightly on his body, he ...... "The person surnamed Zhang mentioned Goolan Hutong again.

"It's easy to say, it's good to say, I'm having a treat tonight, Brother Zhang must be there, but I want to see what the girls in this Goolan Hutong are all about......" The man surnamed Li quickly complimented with a lewd face.

“…… Okay......, we'll just wait for your words......" The man surnamed Zhang said immediately.

The man surnamed Li finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that he can finally get the most insider news, this kid dares to blackmail himself like this, if he doesn't have something to handle, he wants him to look good.

“…… ...... then," the man surnamed Li immediately asked.

“…… Brother Zhang! This thing is like this, when it comes to this matter, we have to start with the horse market...... and when it comes to the horse market, we have to say that Tian Hong meets Lord Tian,...... Tian Daren made a lot of money in the horse market, so he wanted to open a horse market in Beijing,...... I don't need to say that Brother Zhang should also know that in the capital, in addition to the most popular side of Liulizhai Square, there is no second place, naturally, Lord Tian wants to open the horse market there, this is natural, we have to nod our Majesty...... "Speaking of the word Your Majesty, this somewhat ruffian person also collected the ruffian on his face, and said the word His Majesty, and his hand was also raised high, and he arched his hand towards the sky, which was regarded as a salute.

When the man surnamed Li saw the man surnamed Zhang arching his hand, he was also busy arching his hand towards the sky.

“…… This is what happened later, Tian Hong Yutian wants to open a big horse market, and Your Majesty wants to open a bigger horse market, which is this expo......" The man surnamed Zhang explained with a smile, his news naturally came from the authentic, so he had the confidence to sell inside information.

“…… Oh, is that it? …… But why did His Majesty think of building a horse market again? With His Majesty's busyness, I'm afraid I don't have time to worry about this......" The man surnamed Li asked after him, this statement was obviously sorry for his bag of things, and the man surnamed Li wanted to know more.

"Hehehehe, or Brother Li is shrewd, this is actually just a pretext, what is actually is that the things in His Majesty's hands are ......, and His Majesty wants to take advantage of the gathering of people from all over the world to sell those things...... so explained, can Brother Li understand?" The man surnamed Zhang explained.

“…… What does His Majesty have in his hands? ......," the man surnamed Li said suspiciously.

“…… Isn't it Brother Li in the past, and now that there is a war outside the Guan, where does the money for disaster relief come from? The man surnamed Zhang reminded.

“…… Oh, oh, oh, yes! I understand, I understand, so to speak, this is Your Majesty going to make a big deal? The man surnamed Li reacted instantly, now this emperor is the emperor, one does not rely on the right endowment, the second does not snatch the card to eat, all the money he earns to maintain the operation of the entire Ming Dynasty, it can be said that he is a shrewd "businessman", now, this "businessman", to take the opportunity to sell those transactions in his hands to the world, with the appeal of the emperor, gather people from all over the world to one place, and then talk about trading, this deal is done, I don't know how big it will be. The heart of the man surnamed Li finally pounded, spare money or some scattered news, and now that he has received tangible news, this heart can finally start beating. …,

"It's more than a big deal! This is simply an all-encompassing super big deal, Brother Li himself calculates how many deals His Majesty has, and once some deals are made, hundreds of thousands, millions of silver will come in and out,...... As long as outsiders touch a little edge, they can't enjoy it, you know? When the man surnamed Zhang said this, the ruffian on his face was almost gone, and he was shocked by the content of his words, one hundred thousand silver in and out of one hundred thousand silver, which is definitely astronomical, for a person who is relatively short of money, it is necessary to respect these numbers.

“…… Hiss...... it's indeed a big deal beyond imagination! The man surnamed Li also began to ponder the power of this, and his mouth was even more muttering to himself. There are a lot of deals, and he knows that he can make money, but unfortunately, it is not something that a person of his level can start, that kind of business, ordinary county wang also has to weigh his own weight, and it is already very remarkable to be able to get some shares.

“…… Hey, hey, the business Your Majesty does, that one is not a big deal, a little bit of small business, Your Majesty may not see it in your eyes, if you don't make a move, you will make a move, and once you make a move, it will definitely be earth-shattering......" The man surnamed Zhang looked righteous and awe, and when he said the word His Majesty, he raised his hand high again and arched his hand towards the sky.

"Exactly, exactly......" The man surnamed Li hurriedly followed.

“…… Then, let's small fish and shrimp......" The man surnamed Li remembered something to each other, and asked again, by this moment, he had already described himself as a small fish and small shrimp. Compared with the heavy rain in the capital, and even the Big Mac, their family can really only be regarded as a small fish and shrimp, and in the face of other people's momentum, they unconsciously lowered their posture.

“…… Hehehe, Brother Zhang is too modest, your blue and white porcelain is not weak, and it is also famous in the market......" The person surnamed Li immediately pointed out the details of the man's family surnamed Zhang.

"There, there, are all some subsistence businesses, and they don't dare to take out the ugly ......," the man surnamed Zhang immediately said modestly.

"Hehehehe, I won't say much else, let's talk about something that Brother Li is interested in,...... Your Majesty......" The man surnamed Li began to speak again, and when he said the word His Majesty, he raised his hand solemnly again, and the person surnamed Li had to follow suit.

“…… Fortunately, His Majesty has always been merciful, and it has also left a gap for situations like Brother Li's family, this expo, His Majesty said it himself, there are also other people's positions, if Brother Li has intentions, but you have to hurry, it is said that this time this expo is huge, and there are a lot of people coming, I am afraid that the whole world will come, and there may be people from vassal states and other ......" The man surnamed Zhang explained.

“…… Your Majesty is merciful, Your Majesty is merciful, it is not easy for us and other small people to make a living, if we can be among the expo, it will be Your Majesty's blessing! The man surnamed Li continued to compliment.

“…… To tell the truth, as far as we know, this expo will be held as early as half a year, or as late as a year, if Brother Li's family wants to participate in the exhibition, and wants to take advantage of this prosperous era to show their own things, you have to hurry up, and transport the samples from the south, you can almost start in advance, so as not to be in a hurry! The man surnamed Zhang reminded.

"Thank you Brother Zhang for the reminder, thank you Brother Zhang for the reminder! ......" the person surnamed Li immediately thanked him.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, this is also how it should be......" The man surnamed Zhang saw that he had almost said it, and he had plans to get up and leave.

“…… This, Brother Zhang, is said to ,...... This...... It is said that this expo has another layer of meaning, I don't know if Brother Zhang can explain it in detail...... "The person surnamed Li saw the man surnamed Zhang looking like he was leaving, and immediately asked about more important things, this is the real core of the whole thing, the previous ones are just ordinary news, even if you don't spend money to investigate, you can also know, but only this latter news, but ordinary people can't find out, even if you know, if you don't have a way, you can't profit from it, which must have a middleman to match. …,

"Hey, hey, hey, hey......" The man surnamed Zhang laughed, there is indeed one of the most important things, that is, the news came out that in addition to the emperor's own things to be promoted in this expo, there are also things selected by the emperor, and the so-called emperor chooses things, which actually means that if you have something that the emperor looks at, the emperor will invest in your things, so that your business will be bursting instantly, which is the reason why people in the world are crazy. With the eyes of the emperor today, what can enter the eyes of the emperor is naturally not a mortal thing, it must be able to make a lot of money, and until now, the emperor has not done a loss-making business.

If you can get the emperor to value your own things, that is to say, your own worth will immediately double I don't know how many times, and having the emperor as your own backstage is not just as simple as making money.

Even if the emperor doesn't value his own things, it is a good thing to be able to follow the emperor to invest in something worth investing in, and it is always a good thing to make more money.

“…… This, Brother Zhang, can you explain it in detail? The man surnamed Li urged, for this, he spent money, to put it bluntly, spending this money is to explore the emperor's future investment direction, so as to follow the trend, follow the right trend, and naturally make money.

"This ......, hey, hey, easy to say,...... It's good to say, the ...... in Goolan Hutong is really ......" The man surnamed Zhang pulled the topic to Goolan Hutong again, and laughed lewdly.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Brother Zhang must appreciate ......the light that night," the man surnamed Li said immediately, although he despised this person a little in his heart, he had to compliment him.

“…… Okay, then we'll see you at night......" The man surnamed Zhang said immediately, and after speaking, he left.

The man surnamed Li looked at the back of the man surnamed Zhang leaving, and was silent, he was very disdainful of what this man surnamed Zhang did, but there was no way, the benefits in it were too great, and he had to do so. If his family's things can be valued by the emperor, then his family's business is a different situation, correspondingly, his family's status is very different, and the people who can get involved with the emperor will definitely benefit immensely, those small officials and small officials, they don't dare to oppress at will, there is no backer, there is no big tree, and it is difficult for small people like him to live!

……

The people are talking about this matter.

The court was not idle.

The emperor's desire to hold an expo had already spread throughout the imperial court.

"Chief, you have to find a way to stop Your Majesty! I don't know how much money it will cost to hold such a big expo, and with these money, it is better to pay back the people and do a few practical things for the people...... "Someone is pouring bitter water with Chen Yuting and making appeals.

“…… Oh, yes! General Xian, you are the general constitution of the Ming Dynasty, this matter, you don't come forward, but no one can come forward to stop Your Majesty, Your Majesty This is a great joy, this is a waste of money and labor......" There is more than one person who said this.

Chen Yuting wanted to scold people, if he could stop the emperor, he would not be the general constitution of the Ming Dynasty, he had already been kicked by the emperor and didn't know where to go, and ...... asked him to stop the emperor from doing this, it might be better to kill him now. Who still has the energy to stop the emperor? The persimmon is either soft or repaired, and I still want to fight with the emperor, isn't it uncomfortable to find myself? With this kind of work, it is better to think about how to follow the emperor to do two beautiful things, and in the future, there is something to show, if it can be recorded in history, it will be better.

Of course, Chen Yuting could only endure these irritabilities in his heart, and listened carefully to the complaints of these people, Chen Yuting began to understand why the emperor asked him to lead these people. In this world, no matter when, there will always be these people who don't know the times, they are like stones in the pit, smelly and hard, and spend so much energy to deal with these people, it is better to concentrate these people under him, so that these people can have a thought, and he is the "thought" of these people. …,

“…… Alas, this matter, speaking of which, should be so, but it is not easy for this official to say! Presumably you also know that Your Majesty has money in your hands, how does Your Majesty spend it, we are courtiers, and it is not good to say anything ......, if Your Majesty does not handle state affairs properly, and there is a lack of money everywhere and it costs so much money, then the official must die to admonish, but Your Majesty Shengming, handle state affairs tightly and orderly, and spend this money again, the official is not easy to say anything, after all, Your Majesty also has his own ideas, and we as courtiers are not easy to manage too leniently...... "Chen Yuting wanted to come to a relief, and said loudly that I am His Majesty's person, It's not the person you think, it's ......, but this idea, he really can't open his mouth, if he says so, if the emperor doesn't admit it, then he will be out of the way.

“…… But, my lord, no matter what, it is always wrong for Your Majesty to spend money like this, and as a courtier, you should admonish Your Majesty! An old minister still chattered.

“…… Alas, Your Majesty is a hundred times more holy than me, how can this be persuaded? Chen Yuting asked rhetorically, Chen Yuting began to be annoyed with this kind of career, thinking that he had to face these chattering words every day, Chen Yuting wanted to be painful. He knows a lot of things that others don't know, and he has a very different perspective on these people and these things.

There was silence.

"I would like to tell the Commander-in-Chief, and the lower officials feel that His Majesty may not be able to stop the ...... if he wants to hold an exposition this time," someone said.

"Tingkun, what do you think?" Chen Yuting immediately asked.

"Tell Lord Zongxian, the lower officials think that the emperor has always had this kind of thought, Your Majesty Shengming is obvious to all, and the merits made by Your Majesty are even more obvious to all, naturally, if you want to do this kind of thing to show the emperor's ability, therefore, the lower officials think that there is no need to block this matter, and the scenery should still be made to let Your Majesty be beautiful!" This person said so, what this means is that the emperor wants to learn from the ancestors to do this kind of thing to show the glory of the emperor, since the emperor has indeed done something worth showing off, then let the emperor show off.

Chen Yuting immediately gave birth to a confidant, this kind of thing is what he wants to hear. Why do you people keep getting along with the emperor? Wouldn't it be good to follow the emperor for a few days and live a comfortable life?

"Although this is reasonable, but Your Majesty is still young after all, if you indulge Your Majesty too much, I am afraid that it will not be a good thing, I am afraid that Your Majesty will go astray and mislead me for ...... Ming" Another person said in the posture of the emperor's nanny.

"However, Benxian heard that His Majesty did this expo to sell his own things, not to show off his merits......" Chen Yuting had to bring this matter up and talk about it, he suspected that the sources of these people were worse than those selling steamed buns on the street, he really didn't know, how these people became officials, how they mixed up, whether they really didn't know, or deliberately pretended not to know.

"Ahem......"

“…… Ahem......"

A cough was followed by silence.

The people who sell steamed buns on the street know about this, and they have no reason not to know, but if they know, they will know, what else can they do besides know? Can you still jump out against the emperor? Do they have this to deal with?

Many people don't know, but when they do, they would rather bury their heads in the sand and pretend not to know, and some people just live for habit and inertia.

Chen Yuting took the opportunity to drink a few sips of tea, it seems that he is not a fool, there are many people who pretend to be confused, since this is the case, then there is no need to tell the emperor about this matter in the court, and he is also at ease.
