Let's talk about the fact that the eldest prince Yu Wenjun and Chu Mingyang have been living a good life recently. After being unlucky once before, they still miss their rich and prosperous days. Now there are still people giving them money, and they still do business together and resell antiques.
After learning the lesson from the last time, they have become more cautious. They will not do any business that requires money or high-risk business. To put it bluntly, they want to use his status as the eldest prince to gain some advantages and get back to him.
The original abundant life.
This time, the person doing business with him was a Jiangnan businessman named Sun Quanwu. He had a huge fortune, but he had no connections in the capital. Because he was doing antique business, he still had to rely on these local snakes. Yu Wenjun was the most suitable. No one would
I went specifically to offend him, and all levels of the capital also gave him some bad treatment. The most important thing was that he was greedy.
If a person is greedy, it is very easy to control him.
The antique dealer also introduced him to many businessmen from out of town. These people all had pass certificates in Beijing, and they needed to go to the Yamen to renew them every ten days. Yu Wenjun took care of this for him, and there was no need to do this at all.
Ask others to bring it directly to King Qi and ask him to stamp it.
The King of Qi was tired of him and avoided him, so even if he didn't have to do anything personally, he was willing to do everything for him, because there were many people like this in the capital who had gone through interrogations on behalf of others, just to earn some hard money.
King Qi even thought that he was willing to take such lowly jobs because he knew how to make progress.
He took care of these things for Sun Quanwu and introduced some people to him. Because ordinary people could not afford this antique, most of the people he introduced were officials who had followed him in the past. Although these people no longer follow him now
, but I didn’t dare to offend him, so I just regarded it as a smooth favor and made friends with the people he introduced. As for whether they would be friends or not, that was not his business.
But this Sun Quanwu was actually a capable man and good at dancing. Those officials were just socializing with Yu Wenjun, but he actually got to know many of them. This was naturally because he was generous and cheerful. Over time, the people who interacted with him became
There were more.
Sun Quanwu was really interesting, and he did not treat Yu Wenjun coldly because of this. He continued to interact with him and earned him commissions. He made a lot of money. In one month, Yu Wenjun could get three to four hundred taels of silver from Sun Quanwu, which was very important to him.
, very rich.
Therefore, Yu Wenjun and Chu Mingyang still lived a happy life, not as noble as in the past, but they never lacked money, and they would not come to blackmail Mrs. Yao.
The friends Chu Mingyang made in the past gradually kept in contact with her because of her current wealth. Sun Quanwu also gave Chu Mingyang advice. If he wanted to make more money, he asked these ladies to take out the money and lend it out, so that they could earn high interest rates.
Chu Mingyang naturally knew that the water was deep here, so she didn't dare at first. She just gave Sun Quanwu the remaining money she had on hand to lend out. As a result, she could earn high returns in a few days, so she became greedy and told the matter.
The lady who associates with her.
These ladies were wealthy themselves, with a lot of private property and a lot of money. When they heard that it was so easy to make money, they tentatively gave Chu Mingyang some money. Chu Mingyang ate part of the interest and returned the rest to them. After one month,
Also make a lot of money.
Gradually, the ladies dared to go out with large sums of money. Even the second lady of the Gu family gave Chu Mingyang a lot of silver and asked her to put it out. This second lady was the cousin of Chu Mingyang's mother, and Chu Mingyang wanted to respect her.
Auntie, Chu Mingyang also had frequent contacts with the second wife's daughter Gu Kangman. Gu Kangman was about to get married, but she had her eyes set on others and refused to marry unless she was noble, so she delayed until now.
What Gu Kangman has set his sights on now is Leng Jingyan, the uncle of the Leng family. Jing Jingyan is the Imperial Academy's ritual wine, and he is rich in knowledge. Scholars who want to take the imperial examination have to fawn over him, so Ling Yan is very respected in the eyes of scholars.
The second wife knew her daughter's thoughts and asked someone to go there, but there was no word of rejection. She then thought of asking Chu Mingyang to lend money to her daughter. If she could marry Jing Yan, it would be a good match.
