Do you want to say that Xiao Chong is worried about the future of his grandfather and the entire Xiao family? That is absolutely not true.
Xiao Ce didn't understand where Xiao Chong got such calmness. Even the leader of the Xiao family was dismissed, and he still handled his trivial government affairs like no one else.
Xiao Chong didn't explain it either. There was no need to say anything about this kind of thing, it was all just a matter of understanding.
He knew that given his grandfather's upright nature, ups and downs were normal. This was not the first time he had been dismissed from office. The year he first came to power, his grandfather was dismissed because of a quarrel with Chen Shuda.
Pass.
So what if he just dismissed the prime minister? The first dismissal resulted in his uncle becoming his son-in-law. The two families became even closer, and the Li Tang royal family and the Xiao family became even more inseparable from then on.
Xiao Chong is almost certain that this time his grandfather will be dismissed from the prime ministership, and it will not last too long. Because he has long discovered that his grandfather has done one thing that is close to his heart, so there must be a place for his grandfather in the court.
However, his own time is very tight, and there are still too many things he wants to do that have not been completed. The squires below are all trying to get in trouble whenever they have the opportunity, which is really tiring.
Regarding the dismissal of Xiao Chong's grandfather, Lin Wanwan also heard several voices of discussion in Xiaoxi Town.
But she was calmer than Xiao Chong, and she didn't even think that as a cousin, she should pretend to comfort him.
It has long been written in the history books that Xiao Yu will be dismissed six times in his life. Why are you anxious? This is only the second time. Anyway, it won't be long before Li Shimin regrets reviving him.
With Xiao Yu's absolutely noble background, the influence of the Xiao family in the established sect, and the factor of Empress Xiao, it doesn't matter even if his temper is extremely bad, Li Shimin will forgive him even if he is angry.
Him, and thought of his goodness again.
Besides, the affairs of the Chang'an court were a little far away from Luan County. If Lin Wanwan's golden thigh hadn't been Xiao Chong, she would have been too lazy to care about the affairs of the court.
Originally, she was a little panicked because she vaguely heard that Xiao Chong might be promoted a few days ago.
She has reference answers for the trajectories of other historical figures so that she can cheat. Only Xiao Chong was changed by her butterfly wings, and his words, deeds and future are unpredictable.
If Xiao Chong was really transferred away and left her alone in Luan County, wouldn't she become a big fat sheep and have to face the eyeing gentry forces, which would be a bit panicked.
Now that Xiao Chong's grandfather Xiao Yu has been dismissed from the prime ministership, Xiao Chong cannot be promoted for a while, so it is no better to stay in Luan County.
In July, in addition to the important court event of Xiao Chong's grandfather being deposed as prime minister, there is another important event in the Lin family village - that is, the cold melons that Lin Wanwan gave to her clan brothers on credit have begun to mature!
A melon seedling costs ten gold. Now it is growing bigger and bigger, and it is about to ripen and fall off. Everyone in Linjiazhuang who has planted it will not be excited!
They didn't even dare to sleep peacefully in the room at night, so they built a simple wooden frame beside the melon field and slept beside it at night to keep watch, for fear of being kidnapped.
In their eyes, this cold melon is like a beautiful bride. People who use seedlings to do big things are basically singles in the clan, waiting to make a lot of money and use silk to marry a bride.
.
Some of the families in the city that Lin Wanwan sold melon seedlings to took good care of them, and they couldn't wait to start holding cold melon banquets. Lin Wanwan even took Xiao Qingyu and Xiao Yixun to attend a few of them.
Based on the planting conditions of Datang, if one melon seedling wants to grow a good-quality melon, it must bear one melon per melon seedling. The excess young melons must be cut off, and the concentrated nutrients should be reserved for one melon.
Lin Wanwan wrote this down on the planting instructions when selling melon seedlings.
The melon growers in Linjiazhuang naturally received her reminders and guidance, so now everyone who grows melons has big and round cold melons, which are of high quality at first glance.
Nowadays, the entire Luang County in the Yangtze River Delta has become a place that is talked about because of the appearance of cold melon.
Even people from other counties have begun to buy cold melons from the market in Luan County, and the price has reached 13 to 15 gold each! The final price depends on the specific size and quality of the cold melons.
Tsk
Tsk! You are actually willing to pay such a sky-high price just for a bite to eat!
If it weren't for the fear of being too public and getting into trouble, Lin Wanwan would have wanted to spend money to buy some watermelons from modern times and resell them.
When Lin Wanwan sold the cold melon seedlings, she set a sky-high price. One plant cost ten gold, which was just the price of the seedlings. Now it has been proven that she did not ask for arbitrary prices at that time. Look, it has just begun to mature, and it has already increased by 30%.
above!
The price of cold melons near Luan County is already very high. If they are shipped to Chang'an, what sky-high price will they be?
Smart people have already sent messages to people who have grown cold melons in Linjiazhuang through various connections, and are willing to buy them for eleven gold or even twelve gold.
The reason why they targeted Linjiazhuang was because the people who bought melon seedlings from Lin Wanwan were basically nobles. The melons they carefully planted were held at banquets by themselves, and even being a favor was not enough. How could they sell them on the market?
Woolen cloth!
The cold melons sold in the market now are all released by some wealthy families. Such families are very rare in the upper class society.
Therefore, the eyes of businessmen will naturally be fixed on Linjiazhuang. The melons in Linjiazhuang, except those from the Jun family in Le'an Township, will definitely be sold on the market. There is no doubt that it only depends on who bids.
Taller.
Of course, it is difficult for the people of Linjiazhuang to sell the cold melon at a high price.
Because after all, cold melons are food and cannot be stored, and the channels for selling them are also limited. It will definitely be useless to sell them directly in the town. Most ordinary people cannot afford them, and the nobles who can afford them are out of reach.
The nobles they have access to, such as Xiao Chong and Lin Wanwan, have grown their own cold melons and do not need to buy them. Therefore, they have no other good solution except selling them to rogue traders. Businessmen naturally have to lower the purchase price for profit.
, you must keep enough profit for yourself.
It was impossible for Lin Wanwan to be so merciful as to sell them. Cold melons were not the cotton she mainly recommended. She would go crazy and spend more than ten gold to buy cold melons from her tribe!
She grows the most winter melons in her own yard, and she never buys them. If she wants to buy them, she secretly buys them from Hyundai.
Regarding the matter of selling cold melons, Lin Wanwan did not intend to interfere and let the market decide.
Lin Mengli's family was one of the people who had the courage to grow melons on credit with Lin Wanwan. Now he is also the first person to sell melons, because he is the person who can best contact the nobles.
Now Lin Mengli, who helps Lin Wanwan look after the beauty shop in Xiaoxi Town, comes into contact with noble ladies and big businessmen every day.
