Because at that time, the Eighth Prince was angered by the emperor's father because of the Eighth Fortune Jin's rudeness in Ningshou Palace, and lost his job in the Ministry of Household Affairs.

The tenth elder brother said: "It's good that Ninth Brother knows what's going on. In the past, Ninth Brother didn't go to the imperial court, but Bage was very dignified in front of the imperial palace. Now that the situation is reversed, I'm afraid he feels unfair."

No matter Yun Haitang or Qianjinfang, no matter how innocent the eighth prince says, the tenth prince will not believe it.

What angered him the most was this choice.

If the "honey trap" at that time had been successful, what would others think of Ninth Brother?

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, the old girl who has not married for a long time is more like the eighth prince's favorite.

Whenever Ninth Brother makes a mistake, he is suspected of "stealing his wife".

Even the suspected sister-in-law who didn't even have a concubine.

"Anyway, you have to remember that if he is not doing well now, he may not be happy to see Brother Ninth doing well. Having been a brother for more than ten years, you should also know that he is the strongest at heart. I heard that he was working hard on his job a while ago. Half of

Yue has traveled thousands of miles, and everyone is biased. I am afraid that in his heart, he does not feel that it is all Bafujin's fault, and he should also blame Sister-in-law Jiu..."

Otherwise, I wouldn't have come up with a "honey trap" to alienate Ninth Brother and Ninth Sister-in-law.

The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth drooped. He also knew this and was discouraged.

"Why is it so crooked? People who were good in the past are now at a loss and acting like the third child!"

He couldn't help but mutter.

The tenth elder brother said very fairly: "When I was a child, there was no conflict of interests. It was not difficult to step back and be magnanimous and say nice words to coax my brothers. When I grow up, when I work as an errand, I have interests, and those who are motivated will

Naturally, I hope to be the best!"

Brother Jiu curled his lips and said, "Isn't that nonsense? Don't say that he has Ba Fujin holding him back now. Even if he doesn't, he still can't compare to the previous darlings!"

Brother Ten said: "Maybe it's because of this that I become more motivated!"

Brother Jiu shook his head and said, "I can't think about it. I'm tired from all the trouble. Let's not daydream!"

The tenth elder brother nodded and said: "Well, my younger brother is as content as the ninth elder brother!"

Brother Jiu smiled and said, "Let them fight for it, we'll just have fun!"

If Suo'etu was not dead, Brother Jiu's heart would not be at peace either.

He was also angry at Yuqing Palace and was not willing to submit to the crown prince.

But after Suo'etu died, the resentment in his heart disappeared.

Where the prince is, let him go.

When the prince comes up, he will be the emperor's younger brother.

Other brothers went up, but he was still the emperor's younger brother.

Even if you don't take him seriously, you can still enjoy your leisure by holding on to your title and not having to go out on errands.

At that time, I could take Shushu around in the name of health care and treatment.

He was very curious about Guangzhou and wanted to see Western cargo ships.

Seeing him like this, the tenth elder brother felt relieved.

Otherwise, I would be really worried.

After the two brothers finished speaking, they left the pavilion.

When the Ninth Elder Brother's boat came to the side, the Ninth Elder Brother remembered Shu Shu's arrangement for extra meals, stopped and looked at the Tenth Elder Brother.

The 10th prince is also at the age of drawing money, so he looks weak.

Especially walking with Shi Fujin, it was a bit awkward.

Shi Fujin has lost a lot of weight and is much wider than Shi Age.

He coughed slightly and said: "Your sister-in-law is worried about my health and hopes that I will gain weight. Now there is a snack in the morning and afternoon. There are eggs and other things in the morning, milk in the afternoon, and fried noodles with oil."

Tea, lotus root starch, soft pastry..."

The tenth elder brother listened and glanced at the ninth elder brother.

It's weird, there's no intention of showing off on your face, so why are you saying this?

Brother Jiu saw that he couldn't react, so he reached out and grabbed his arm and said: "You are as thin as a stick. You are too thin to be with the tenth brother and sister. He turned around and asked Wang Changshou to come over and talk to Xiaotang.

When you get food, you should also add meals at this time to keep fat!"

Only then did Brother Ten realize what he was talking about. He nodded and said, "Well, then I'll have to trouble Sister-in-law Ninth. Fujin is complaining about being hungry. It's a long sailing day, so he'll just have a warm meal at noon."

Brother Jiu was a little worried after hearing this, and said: "But this is for fattening. Your sister-in-law Jiu doesn't dare to eat the same thing as me for fear of getting fat. My younger siblings have finally lost some weight, so eating with you like this won't make them fat again."

Have you gained weight?"

The tenth prince smiled and said: "My younger brother doesn't want her to lose weight. It was fine before."

If he really wanted to keep losing weight, he would be worried that he would be beaten when the Abahai tribe came again at the end of the year.

The ninth elder brother was about to look down on the tenth elder brother, but then he thought about the changes in his wife in the past six months.

Plump or plump is better.

It's not easy to talk to outsiders.

He said: "It's up to you, it's up to you..."

The two brothers separated and boarded the boat separately.

Shu Shu was sitting next to the table, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones on it, and Xiao Song was grinding ink beside him.

I have been busy these days, and I haven't memorized these notes from the south for several days.

Taking advantage of the bright light, Shu Shu made a note.

She wrote carefully, and Xiaosong was also attentive in polishing the ink.

Not only the inside of the cabin, but also the aisle outside was covered with wool felt, making it silent when walking.

Therefore, when Brother Jiu came in, neither the master nor the servant noticed it.

Brother Jiu walked over, stood next to Shu Shu, and looked at her letters.

Shu Shu wrote "Wanbao Pavilion". The Western utensils were exquisite, and the merchants there also traveled far and came to the Qing Dynasty, which was thousands of miles away.

I wonder if anyone in the Qing Dynasty went to the West to see the Western style.

Brother Jiu smiled and said: "This is really a tacit understanding!"

Only then did Shu Shu realize that he was there, put down his pen and said, "I also gained something from the 'Wanbao Pavilion'?"

Brother Jiu sat next to him, poured a cup of tea, moistened his throat, and then said: "I just thought that the Qing Dynasty was short of money. If they took all the money away, wouldn't it be even worse? It would be best.

The best way is that no matter what they earn from the Qing Dynasty, or from the East or Nanyang, as long as it is money, it is best to keep it in the Qing Dynasty!"

Shu Shu's eyes showed admiration.

Now, the official foreign trade organization of the Qing Dynasty, the Guangzhou Thirteenth Bank, has been established.

It's just that it hasn't reached the "one-stop trade" period yet, so it's not very conspicuous.

There are now a total of four customs offices responsible for foreign trade and customs collection, namely Guangzhou Customs in Guangdong, Zhangzhou Customs in Fujian, Ningbo Customs in Zhejiang and Yuntaishan Customs in Jiangnan.

Below the four customs offices, there are more than a dozen customs ports.

In the middle of Qianlong's reign, the "one port for trade" policy was implemented, with only Guangzhou Customs remaining and all other customs and customs ports closed.

The Guangzhou Thirteenth Bank also became a monopoly business and ushered in a glorious period of nearly a century.

They say men at work are handsome, and Brother Jiu is really good when he wants to get down to business.

Everything related to the economy has been handled well.

She didn't say any words of praise, but the praise was all on her face.

The corners of Brother Jiu's mouth were raised, with a bit of pride, but when he thought about going to the dragon boat just now, he felt that he still had to make a note of it.

He pointed at Shu Shu's letter and said: "I seem to have offended someone. We are not allowed to have more enemies. Please make a note at the back. I will ask for the list later and see who they are. Don't bring them in."

Down."

If there are people who are blindly thinking about revenge, let them learn what the prince's brother's temper is.

Shu Shu felt worried. Why did the enemy appear?

How many more?

"Is there anyone else buying stones at the Jijiahu stone farm?"

She thought about what happened yesterday and wondered if there was a follow-up incident.

After hearing this, the ninth elder brother burst out laughing, thinking about how embarrassed the third elder brother had just been.

That cup is a sure hit!

Ha ha!

fine!
