In Yunnan, as long as it is sunny, the sky is blue and white clouds.
Zhu Gaoxu packed up early in the morning and walked to the gate of Chengyun in his corset.As usual, he had to run with the soldiers first.
Princess Guo Yan and a group of women walked to Chengyun Gate Tower, and they curtswalking to see Zhu Gaoxu.
Forgot.Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand.His eyes wandered on Yao Ji's face for a moment, and he couldn't help but think: In terms of beauty, no one can compare with Yao Ji except Miao Jin.
Under the sunny sun, the stream of youth was faintly shining on her face, which was very gorgeous and dazzling.She seemed to notice Zhu Gaoxu's gaze, and raised her head quietly, facing him.
Zhu Gaoxu quickly dodged Yao Ji's bright eyes and said one thing to Guo Wei: You all go back, the princess will leave slowly when she returns to the palace.
Guo Wei thanked him.When Zhu Gaoxu turned around, he heard them say: I’ll give it to the prince.
In this royal mansion where wives and concubines live together, Zhu Gaoxu could not find any other way, so he had to abide by some rules at this time, with the superiority and inferiority of the superiority and the seniority of the elders; otherwise the family would definitely be in a very troublesome situation.
At this time, he thought of his father Zhu Di and his arrangements for his sons, which were probably due to etiquette and rules.Zhu Di's favorite son should be Gao Sui, but Gao Sui is not the crown prince.
So Zhu Gaoxu could not only care about his preferences in the harem of the royal palace, and he thought it very clearly.
First of all, we must maintain the authority and status of Princess Guo Wei.After all, she is Zhu Gaoxu's first wife and married at the age of fourteen. She and Zhu Gaoxu share the same honor and disgrace, and are inseparable from each other.
The second is Yao Ji and Du Qianrui.No matter what their identities are, Zhu Gaoxu always remembers the warmth in troubles.
At this time, he thought of Miaojin, but his heart was in a mess...
Zhu Gaoxu and his soldiers ran on the wide brick floor in the front hall of the Han Palace for nearly half an hour.
He went to the small courtyard corridor behind the study in the front hall, washed away sweat and changed into clothes, drank tea and had snacks, and then went to the study to do the work.
Except for the ten-day holiday, he was like this almost every day. The generals and the soldiers of the three guards could spend time with him day and night.
If it weren't for this, he probably would have gained weight long ago. The eldest brother and prince grew up to that look because of the inconvenience of legs and feet and his feet, and he was eating well.
While running with heavy loads, Zhao Ping, as a personal guard general, was also in the team.
When Zhu Gaoxu came to the study while taking a shower and changing clothes, Zhao Ping also changed into a armor. He put his sword outside the door and walked in with a tingling clang.
Zhao Ping clasped his fists and said: According to the prince's intention, the military households of Yunnan garrison were more familiar with the mountains. The last general had selected 100 soldiers from the garrison and 50 guards from the garrison. They were ready, and today they escorted merchants and miners to the Mengyang Xuanfu Envoy Office!
Very good.Zhu Gaoxu also reminded that the Dusi signed an alliance with the Sijia, and we have the right to monopolize the jade mine in Mengyang area.Now that jade has only been found in Mengyang, Zhao Baihu has arrived at the local area and must send someone to keep an eye on it, and no one else is allowed to go to mine.
Zhao Ping held the courtesy and said: Get the order!
Zhu Gaoxu nodded.
Zhao Ping then said, "I'm going to say goodbye."
I hope that Zhao Baihu and other brothers will have a smooth trip.Zhu Gaoxu said kindly.
Only by monopoly can there be huge profits. Besides, jade is not famous now and has not been recognized by the world. If it is just mined and there are several companies competing for price comparisons, then what else can you make a profit?
In addition, because of the fact that jade has just been discovered, many high-quality ores are present, it is easier for everyone to find rare and good ores at the beginning.
That's why Zhu Gaoxu specifically reminded Zhao Ping not to be involved in the mines found.
After Zhao Ping left, Zhu Gaoxu picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Chen Xu to discuss the business of jadeite.
……
As Zhu Gaoxu expected, jade mines that have never been mined are the easiest to find rare treasures.
The first batch of jade ore was dug out from the mine discovered by Meng Yangxuanwei envoy. After traveling to the warehouse of Qianhu Institution in Tengchong, he arrived at Yongchang Prefecture, the Shen family selected two ores that were hard to come by.
The small piece of material with the best quality was made into a round jade pendant and a jade bracelet.
The two things are crystal clear and shiny, but the color is very bright emerald green... very rare!
Generally, ice-type jade is transparent and not easy to produce green; glutinous jade is easy to produce green, but it looks slightly turbid.
Zhu Gaoxu had never seen these two pieces of jade before.
He could only guess that they were the legendary glass species?
Chen Xu's family opened in the largest jade building in Kunming City. This set of jadeware was named as the "Tianzuo" and is for sale directly above, and the price is 30,000 jin of money or gold and silver.
On the first day of the opening of Yulou, the treasure was bought.The news spread wildly, and for a moment, the dignitaries and nobles in the city were asking who bought the jade.
...At the beginning of last year, shortly after Zhu Gaoxu became a vassal of Yunnan, his seventeenth uncle Zhu Quan was also granted the title of Nanchang.
At the beginning of the Jingnan Campaign, Zhu Di's promise was to share the world equally with Zhu Quan; at the beginning of Yongle, Zhu Quan, the King of Ning, did not mention the matter wisely, and only asked to be enfeoffed in Suzhou or Hangzhou.
But no matter what, King Ning went to Nanchang in the end.
Uncle Seventeen is not a few years older than Zhu Gaoxu. He likes to read and is proficient in musical opera. It is said that he has thousands of actors at home.
Last year, Zhu Gaoxu wrote a letter describing the story of "Peony Pavilion" and some opera lyrics, and asked King Ning to arrange this opera.During this period, King Ning finally sent the chief secretary to deliver the playbook.
The person who bought the match made by heaven was King Ning Changshi.
So Zhu Gaoxu summoned the Chief Secretary of the King of Ning at the Han Palace and wanted to buy the goods for 50,000 yuan.
The Han Palace invited officials, famous scholars, wealthy businessmen in Kunming City to watch the ceremony with their female relatives. Zhu Gaoxu accepted the offering of treasures from King Ning in public in the front hall.
In full view of everyone, Zhu Gaoxu ordered people to carry out two boxes of silver and put it in the hall.
King Ning Changshi was also a wonderful person, and he took his entourage to count the silver in the hall.
A ingot of white silver swayed in front of everyone's eyes, making people dazzled and even more vulgar.
After fiddling with it for a long time, the money was finally counted.King Ning Changshi presented the heavenly combination of the carved red sandalwood to the throne.
The opened wooden box was placed on the court. Many of the guests and female relatives in the hall stretched their necks to see, but they were too far away and no one could see clearly.
Zhu Gaoxu said: Come on, ask someone to come in and put it on and take a look.
The eunuch Wang Gui held the whisk and said, "I will obey the order."
After a while, the beautiful beauty Yao Ji, who had already prepared, walked into the hall lightly.There was a sigh of sighing in the hall. If it weren't for the Han Palace, everyone wouldn't dare to make noise, the uproar would probably be more than that.
Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by Yao Ji.They can't see jade artifacts clearly, but they can see people clearly.
I saw Yao Ji wearing a goose yellow dress and light yellow silk, elegant and luxurious with a bit of elegance; there was no embellishment of jewelry, which was left for jade ornaments, but it made her look more reserved.
Everyone held their breath, and people probably had never seen such a vivid and charming little girl in Yunnan.
I pay homage to the prince.Yao Ji's face was red, and she showed a bit of embarrassed shyness when she was noticed.
Zhu Gaoxu pointed to the wooden box in front of him and said: Put on this combination of heaven and let me take a look.
Yao Ji slowly bent her knees and said: Yes.
When she stretched out Yubai's hand, she raised her head and said softly: Can I really wear it?
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned for a moment because he didn't have this line when he was preparing to act.
After all, it is a rare treasure, and Yao Ji should really want to wear it; she still asked softly, as if it was redundant, but she showed a very obedient attitude.
Yao Ji's personality is not really submissive, but she expresses her implicit and gracefulness vividly in an understatement.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and looked at her with great anticipation.She carefully and gently picked up the jade and put it on her belt, and then slid the jade bracelet into her wrist.
Yao Ji's body has brighter colors.
There are spacious windows on both sides of the hall, and the sunlight on the east side just shines on her. Her black hair is shining with shiny colors, her bright black eyes, her white skin, her vermilion lips, goose yellow clothes... and bright green jade pendants and bracelets. The colors are shining and gorgeous, which is amazing.
Many women in the hall looked straight.Just like the beauty without a trace of flaw from the Heavenly Palace, many women dream of having it.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at it for a while, slapped the handrail, and looked back at the guests and said with a smile: Although I spent 50,000 yuan, it seems that this "combination made by heaven" is worth the price.Humane is that gold has a priceless price, and it is hard to find, and it is worthy of fame.
There was a sudden echo of compliments in the hall, and many people bowed to the King of Han for obtaining rare treasures.
Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and asked Yao Ji to retreat with her jade artifact. She felt a little shy and excited on her face. She walked through the entire hall from the seat and walked out of the main entrance of the hall.
It seemed that she had just left Chengyun Hall, but she had actually shown it in front of the guests and the women.
Everyone almost watched Yao Ji leave the hall gate.
At this time, the sound of drums and music started, and the banquet in the palace began to celebrate the joy of the Han Dynasty's treasure.
...When Zhu Gaoxu returned to the front palace, he couldn't help but say to Guo Wei: Today we will show the guests the "god of heaven". Weier is a princess with a noble status and is not suitable for such occasions.I did this just to hype the value of jade.
Unexpectedly, Guo Wei smiled and said: Don’t worry, your husband, I shouldn’t show up easily.
Zhu Gaoxu breathed a light breath and said: This set of "the combination of heaven" cannot be owned by both the Han Palace and the Ning Palace.After a while, I called Du Qianrui and came over. It would be okay if you wear it and play with it.
Guo Wei nodded with a smile.
Zhu Gaoxu said kindly: Meng Yangxuanwei's envoy is still mining, and he will definitely find rare treasures in the future.
Guo Wei asked in a low voice: Is it the prince’s intention to buy the Heavenly Made?
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: Of course, the value of a thing needs to be confirmed by constantly changing hands and raising prices.Whether it is me or King Ning, if you really want a treasure, there is a way, why spend so much money to buy it?
Zhu Gaoxu packed up early in the morning and walked to the gate of Chengyun in his corset.As usual, he had to run with the soldiers first.
Princess Guo Yan and a group of women walked to Chengyun Gate Tower, and they curtswalking to see Zhu Gaoxu.
