"What, you are going to participate in the Huangshang election tomorrow?!"
Fan Mingyu looked at Shi Fuxin in surprise.
Shi Fuxin also looked at him in surprise: "Why are you reacting so hard?"
Fan Mingyu was silent: "Sixth sister, do you know who are participating in the Huangshang election?"
Shi Fuxin: "Of course I know. They are all businessmen who pay millions in taxes. Hongyanxiao paid one million in taxes today, so I can also participate."
Fan Mingyu took a deep breath: "But do you know that only men can go to that kind of occasion?"
Shi Fuxin frowned: "The imperial court stipulates that you can participate if you pay enough tax and silver, and I am certainly qualified to go."
Fan Mingyu was a little angry: "This is not a question of whether you are qualified or not, but, as an unmarried girl, don't you feel embarrassed when you go to a place where men are pushing you?"
Hearing this, Shi Fuxin's face looked a little ugly, but thinking of Fan Mingyu's education, she still said: "I will wear a curtain hat, but if it doesn't work, I can also dress up as a man."
Seeing that Fan Mingyu still had a bad look on his face, he thought for a moment and then said, "If you are really worried, you can go with me. Is that okay?"
Fan Mingyu's expression did not improve. Seeing that Shi Fuxin had no intention of changing his mind, he said directly: "I don't agree with you participating in the Huangshang election."
When we got here, Shi Fuxin was a little annoyed: "What's wrong with you? Didn't I ask you to come with me?"
Fan Mingyu looked at Shi Fuxin: "I am the prince of Yongchuan, how can I lower my status and associate with businessmen?"
Shi Fuxin didn't expect Fan Mingyu's class concept to be so serious. Just when she was about to say something, Jin Yue'e came over.
Jin Yue'e looked at the sullen Mr. Fan Xiaohou, and then at his daughter, who looked unhappy. Knowing that the two had a quarrel, she walked up to Shi Fuxin and said, "Speak to me if you have anything to say."
Then, he looked at Fan Mingyu.
"Mingyu, my sister Xin is a reasonable person. If you have anything to say, tell her slowly. As long as it's reasonable, she will definitely consider it seriously."
Fan Mingyu quickly looked at Jin Yue'e and told Shi Fuxin that she was going to the Ministry of Household Affairs to participate in the Huangshang election: "Auntie, please advise the sixth sister. It is really difficult for a girl like her to participate in the Huangshang election." After a pause, she looked at Shi Fuxin and said, "My mother will definitely be even more angry if she finds out."
These seemingly threatening words directly angered Shi Fuxin. Regardless of her mother's obstruction, she walked up to Fan Mingyu and said, "Fan Mingyu, are you using your mother to pressure me?"
Fan Mingyu's eyes flashed: "I didn't, I was just stating the facts."
Shi Fuxin's thoughts were swirling in her mind, and she suddenly had the urge to break up with Fan Mingyu immediately, but reason still prevailed.
Fan Mingyu's family background agreed with her request and was willing to bend down to accommodate her. It's really hard to find such a noble son.
Shi Fuxin took a deep breath and looked at him seriously: "Fan Mingyu, a beautiful smile is very important to me. I will be very happy if I can become an imperial merchant. Can you accompany me to participate?"
Fan Mingyu was a little puzzled: "Sixth sister, businessmen want to be imperial merchants just to shine, but what are you doing for?"
Shi Fuxin: "Everyone has some pursuits and wants to do something seriously. Just like your Fan family, it is your pursuit to train the strongest naval force for Da Chu, and it is my pursuit to spread the beauty of beauty all over Da Chu.
”
Fan Mingyu didn't understand and said: "Sixth sister, you are just a girl."
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shi Fuxin: "What's wrong with the girl's family? Do you look down on the girl's family?"
Jin Yue'e keenly felt the suppressed annoyance in her daughter's tone, and quickly winked at Fan Mingyu: "Mingyu, go back first and I'll talk to Sister Xin."
Fan Mingyu also knew that if he continued to talk, he would definitely quarrel with Shi Fuxin again, so he nodded.
But he had just taken a few steps when he heard Shi Fuxin say: "I am determined to participate in the Huangshang election."
Fan Mingyu looked back at Shi Fuxin, wanting to get angry but holding back, then threw up his sleeves and strode away.
Seeing this, Jin Yue'e had a headache and looked at Shi Fuxin: "You have such a temper. Didn't my mother say that if you have something to say, why don't you restrain your temper?"
Shi Fuxin lowered her eyes: "Mom, this is not a matter of whether we have said it properly, but there are some things that Fan Mingyu and I cannot reconcile at all."
Jin Yue'e was silent for a while: "I know that some of Mingyu's actions will make you feel restricted, but from his perspective, he is not wrong."
Shi Fuxin smiled bitterly: "Yes, he is not wrong, and I am not wrong either. This is the biggest mistake."
Jin Yue'e was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Shi Fuxin looked at Jin Yue'e with a smile: "Mom, don't worry, I will take care of my own affairs."
Hearing this, Jin Yue'e stopped talking. Her youngest daughter has had a right mind since she was a child, and she will not change her mind no matter who persuades her, but she is still a little worried in her heart.
I’m worried that my younger daughter’s marriage will not go smoothly due to her temper.
The imperial merchant election is a very important event for businessmen. On July 4th, all merchant families and upstarts in the business world gathered early at the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Shi Fuxin deliberately arrived a little late. When she arrived at the door of the household, she unexpectedly bumped into Hu Xinrui and Du Zixuan, but she was relieved soon after.
I have to say that the students in their business class are really talented, and she is not the only one with a tax income exceeding one million.
The three of them looked at each other, smiled at each other, and then entered the household department side by side.
The Ministry of Household Affairs specially set aside a large hall for the imperial merchant election. At this moment, the hall was already full of people, all of whom were men. When Fu Xin and the other three entered, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Even if she was wearing a curtain, it was difficult to block the probing eyes from falling on her body. If she were an ordinary woman, she would have retreated and left long ago. However, the three of them, Shi Fuxin, each had a better psychological quality, and found a seat to sit down without changing their expressions.
He also nodded to the neighboring businessmen to show his goodwill.
Shi Fuxin was a little surprised by the reactions of Du Zixuan and Hu Xinrui. She had been used to various occasions in her previous life, so it was normal for her not to have stage fright. However, the two girls around her had such determination in their teens, which was really surprising.
Admire.

She is now more and more interested in Du Zixuan and Hu Xinrui. As far as she knows, these two people have no background. If this is true, then these two people are real business geniuses.
Shi Fuxin was surprised, and Du Zixuan and Hu Xinrui were also surprised by her.
My family knows their own affairs, and they have been secretly cultivated by the family since they were young. They have traveled to many countries along the Maritime Silk Road opened by Queen Wende, and their understanding of character is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
But Shi Fuxin, this person grew up in the barren and impoverished northwest border.
Could it be that a harsh environment can temper a person's character even more?
The arrival of the three people immediately became the center of discussion, but before everyone was surprised, another girl wearing a curtain hat came.
Zhuoyimian!
When Zhuo Yimian saw Shi Fuxin and the others, he felt relieved. He quickly walked over and sat down next to the three of them.
Of the hundreds of people who participated in the Huangshang election, there were only four women.
"Whose families do the four girls belong to?"
In the dark room next to the main hall, the prince looked at the four girls among the men with some surprise. He did not expect that he would receive an unexpected harvest this time when he took the job of supervising the imperial merchants' election campaign.
The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue immediately replied: "Back to the prince, the girl in purple is the boss Shi Fuxin with a pretty smile, the girl in yellow is Hu Xinrui, the boss of Building Block Shop, the girl in green is Du Zixuan, the boss of Flower Viewing in the Water, and the girl in blue is from Weaver Girl Shop.
Boss Zhuo Yimian."
"Shi Fuxin is from Wuchang Prefecture, Zhuo Yimian is from Rongchang Prefecture, Hu Xinrui is from Min Province, and Du Zixuan is from Guangjiang Province. They are both children of ordinary families."
After hearing this, the prince looked suspicious. Forget the Wuchang and Rongchang residences, the two ordinary people were a bit outrageous: "Are you sure you have found out their life experiences?"
The Minister of Household Affairs nodded: "The State Female Supervisor inspected it once, and then inspected it again when the tax money was collected."
The prince still didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything more. He just took a serious look at the four girls who came to participate in the Huangshang election.
Finally, my eyes fell on the girl in purple.
The sixth girl of the Shi family. Wasn’t it the first time the mother wanted to point this girl out to him as his concubine?
Wearing curtains and hats, we can't see the girls' expressions clearly, but we can still tell something from their sitting postures.
Among the four girls, the girl from the Rongchang family is still a little reserved. From her straight waist, it can be seen that this person has a strong and resolute side.
As for the other three, they are very relaxed.
Those two girls from ordinary backgrounds gave people a feeling of confidence and calmness, but he actually saw a bit of domineering in the girl from that time.
The prince felt a little funny, shook his head, and turned his attention to the businessmen who were most likely to choose the imperial merchants.
