After the villains heard my voice, they all lost their composure.

Chapter 318: For the first time in my life, I resented my ancestors

Today is an ordinary day, but also a very different day. Early in the morning, some people who like to watch the excitement left the city gate early and went to the pier to watch the excitement.

Some even carried their luggage to experience the convenience of traveling to the capital by water.

After more than half a year of preparations, navigation from Beijing to Yongcheng will be open today. The berths on the pier are lined with ships of various sizes, all going all the way to Beijing.

"I heard that the imperial court has announced that all cargo ships heading to the capital will not be taxed one month before the ship is opened to navigation. I think these bosses are not willing to miss this opportunity. I heard that the goods have been loaded here since the day before yesterday."

The faces of those watching the excitement were filled with smiles. Some people laughed and said: "It used to take more than a month to go to the capital, crossing mountains and ridges. It's better now. I heard that a big ship can arrive in half a month?"

"I don't think it will take half a month, maybe it will arrive in ten days. If it is not impossible to leave, I would like to visit the capital."

"It should be very prosperous at the emperor's feet, right?"

"That's for sure. Can the place where the emperor lives not be prosperous?"

"You must go and see it..."

Yan Mu'an in the carriage couldn't help but laugh. The emperor glanced at her angrily, feeling a little nervous for some reason. The capital city seemed not as good as Yongcheng, at least not as spacious as Yongcheng. How disappointed would the people of Yongcheng be when they went to see it?

For the first time in my life, I resented my ancestors. Why did you choose where to choose the capital back then?

"The matter of moving the capital..."

"Forget it, I will naturally make a decision."

The emperor looked at the spacious dock in front of him and the people passing by. He could hear the sighs of the people in his ears. For the first time, he thought that moving the capital was necessary.

The Wei family's merchant ship was about to set off, and Boss Wei personally came to ask people to board the ship, "Uncle, we are about to set off."

The emperor got off the carriage and turned around to indicate to Yan Mu'an that he could go back. Yan Mu'an waved to him with a smile, and then said to the three Yong brothers who turned their heads and looked at him kindly: "We'll go back in a while."

Originally, she wanted to take a stroll in the city, but she thought it would be better not to cause more trouble to everyone. After the emperor left, she returned home to be quiet and quiet.

"The sun is too strong. It's too hot."

Mr. Yong Sanye nodded and waited until the emperor got on the boat and the boat officially set sail before the group turned around and returned to the city.

On the way, Yan Mu'an originally wanted to ask the Yong family if there was any business they could introduce to her, but suddenly she realized that she didn't have anyone available, so what kind of business could they do?

Forget it, let’s rest on our laurels first, she can live by just taking bribes, why can’t there be so many rich people in the city to support a palace?

Although it is a bit shameless, but...

If I can't stand it, I'll give it to her.

"Princess, do you want to go to Yong's house to sit down?"

Now the Yong family treats Yan Mu'an as an ancestor. Looking at how long she has been in Yongcheng, the Yong family has undergone earth-shaking changes. In the past, the people in Yongcheng were afraid of them and had nothing nice to say behind their backs. They knew it in their hearts. Like, I just don't care.

Look now, they live in the palace and control all the people in Yongcheng. After several things, the people will nod and praise them when talking about them. Moreover, they have not only received official positions in the palace, but also will soon have a title. Going to the land of chaos, Yan Muan brought them all this.

Yan Mu'an yawned, "Then go sit down."

When we get back, we can just sit and enjoy the flowers, or listen to some gossip from the three ladies of the Yong family.

The third master Yong and the fifth master Yong were about to go back to the government office to handle government affairs. Master Yong Jiu brought a motorcade back to the mansion. As soon as they entered the door, the three ladies of the Yong family came to greet them, "Princess, please come in quickly."

Mrs. Yongjiu was also holding a peach blossom umbrella, for fear of exposing Yan Muan to the sun.

"We are all a family, why are you being so polite? You haven't come to the palace to talk to me recently, how are you?"

With the emperor around, many people were embarrassed to come. If they didn't come, Yan Mu'an felt that it would be a little less fun.

Mrs. Yong Wu smiled all over her face and said, "Thanks to you, we are doing well."

"If you don't agree to come here today, go back after lunch. I'll invite a troupe later. A new troupe has come to the city recently. The characters are beautiful, the voice is bright, and the play is interesting."

Yan Mu'an nodded, "Thank you for taking the trouble to arrange it. I haven't been to a show for a long time."

Mrs. Yongwu raised her hand to invite people to come forward and give instructions, and then the four women sat down. Knowing that he liked to listen to gossip, the three ladies took turns telling her, which family had two sisters fighting for one man, and the elder sister made the younger sister look embarrassed in public; The wife took five concubines for her husband at once, which almost caused her husband to become impatient; someone's son ran away secretly because he didn't want to study, and broke a leg when he came back;

Including but not limited to who made a big profit, who lost money, etc. Yan Muan was stunned for a while, feeling that the outside world was really wonderful.

"What do you think about taking five concubines at once?"

Mrs. Yongsan said, "Mr. Tao likes them. I don't know which one to choose. I think this one is beautiful and either one is delicate. Mrs. Tao said it's not like I can't afford it. If I like them, I want them all."

"Then Tao Lai was also very happy. He praised his wife for being virtuous and generous. She can be stupid."

Mrs. Yongwu added, "Mrs. Tao has three sons, and the eldest one is married. How do you still worry about the life and death of her men?"

"She is looking for death. There is no reason for her to stop her. When the time comes, she will shed two tears at most. Then she will have the final say in the entire Tao family. She is a serious old lady of the Tao family."

"As women, we have to think things through." He said and gave a thumbs up, "Mrs. Tao is like this."

Yan Muan pinched a piece of candied fruit and put it in his mouth, "It is indeed worth learning."

She found that the ladies in Yongcheng seemed to be more tolerant.

No, the wives of merchant families are more open-minded, they are all powerful people, and they are all businessmen.

Yan Mu'an turned around and talked about what kind of business he wanted to do, "All the properties in the family are in the capital. After arriving in Yongcheng, we didn't buy any of them. Now I want to buy them, but I don't have the manpower to take care of them. But there is no shortage of capital. Yes, is there any good deal to bring me one?"

Mrs. Yongsan and Mrs. Yongwu both looked at Mrs. Yongjiu. Mrs. Yongjiu said: "The waterway from Yongcheng to the capital has been opened. Many merchants have prepared goods and want to go to the capital. Here we go. There is a lot of money coming back, so naturally the one who gets the most money is to lend them money."

Yan Mu'an said that Qian Hengtong Bank is already working on it. "I have a Yongxing Bank under my name, which was left to me by my mother. I have already invested in Hengtong Bank earlier."

Mrs. Yongwu reacted the fastest, "The princess is the smart one among us."

At this glance, she knew that her business was separated from the palace's business. After thinking about it for a moment, Mrs. Yongwu felt that she had discovered something terrible. The princess was an expert.

Mrs. Yongjiu hadn't thought of that much, but she suddenly understood why the Hengtong Ticket Office had been so strong and aggressive in the past six months or so, with an attitude of fearing no one, and naturally made a lot of money.

It turns out that there is support from the palace.
