Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy
Chapter 247: Take precautions before they happen
On the opening day of the skating rink, there were huge crowds of people and business was booming.
Of course, half of them were invited by old men to show their support to their grandchildren, and the other half were brought in by the playboys who used their own tricks.
There were also some of Song Jinxiu's colleagues in the officialdom who came to show their support.
Anyway, on this first day, everyone is connected.
Everyone in Beijing knows that the ice rink has opened. Many people come here to see it.
But they couldn’t get in because there were too many people. For safety reasons, they had to come back another day.
The skating sled area has the most people because skating on the sled requires no skills and women and children especially like it.
As for the area where people were skating on skates, there were only a few dandies and their friends, while everyone else was just watching.
The dandies were distributing gloves and knee pads to everyone.
Song Jinxiu repeatedly emphasized that safety comes first, and thick gloves and knee pads can reduce injuries from falls.
Tian Lei showed people how to master basic skills, such as V-shaped standing, figure eight turning, center circle turning, T-shaped braking, etc.
In order to build momentum for the ice rink, Song Jinxiu dressed in men's clothing and wore a mask, appearing at the skating rink with a mysterious and heroic look.
"Ding ding ding," the bronze gong from Songjia Village also came in handy here.
Everyone looked over.
The maid said loudly: "Although skating with ice skates is a bit difficult, if you learn it, it is very enjoyable.
Today, we have invited a master of ice skating. Let us wait and see."
Everyone gathered around immediately, and the maid then shouted again, "Start the music."
Accompanied by melodious music, Song Jinxiu danced gracefully on the mirror-smooth ice surface.
She danced with all her heart, leaping lightly, spinning smoothly, gliding gracefully...
Song Jinxiu seemed to have turned into an elf on ice.
Sometimes it would glide across the ice as lightly as a swallow, leaving behind two dazzling streaks of white light;
Sometimes she dances like a butterfly, each movement full of grace and power.
Quad jumps, spins, and steps are performed in one go, like a flowing painting on the ice.
Everyone was stunned.
Others were stunned as Song Jinxiu danced to her fullest.
The playboys sighed: Princess, is there anything you can’t do?
Chen Yiping: This ancestor must not be married home. If she wants to run away, I can't even catch up with her.
Prince Yin: I will get this little devil sooner or later.
Wei Qidong: How many surprises are waiting for me to discover?
Everyone: We also want to learn how to skate.
It turns out that ice skating can be so free and easy, it feels like you are flying.
The Imperial College's chief academic officer even improvised a poem:
"The north wind blew the river water into a frozen mass, and the new ice was as smooth as a whetstone. Who braved the cold to play with the ice, forging iron and threading leather as if walking on their knees? The iron was like the spine of a sword, and the ice was like a mirror. I stepped on the sword and polished the mirror as I walked. It was as straight as an arrow, and the sword and mirror scraped with a sound."
From then on, ice skating became popular in Beijing.
After returning from the skating rink, Song Jinxiu set aside an area in the space to grow grain and sent people to the grain-producing provinces to secretly collect grain.
As the saying goes, do your job well and fulfill your responsibilities.
Standing on a high place, she suddenly realized the importance of food to a country.
What she needs to consider now is not only improving productivity, but also preventing problems before they occur.
The world today is not peaceful.
Therefore, he and Ji Zhengyu purchased a batch of grain in the name of his brother Sanxiake Winery.
Although she saved Ji Ling'er, she did not want to repay the favor, so the person who went to negotiate did not reveal his relationship with the Three Heroes Winery.
But the people who went to negotiate came back and said that the Ji family was very stingy and only sold two carts of grain, which was not as generous as ordinary grain merchants.
They are in the grain business, but they are reluctant to sell their grain. I suspect they are also hoarding grain.
The Ji family is also hoarding food?
It is normal for a grain merchant to hoard grain.
But the richest man in the capital, whose business spread across half of Cangwu, offered a high price for grain, yet only bought two carts of grain. This was too abnormal.
Don’t they make money from food?
Are they hoarding grain while they have money to earn, or is there a natural disaster somewhere? So they're hoping to stockpile and make a killing?
As for businessmen, there is always fraud, which is normal.
But there haven’t been any reports of disasters in any places recently?
Although nothing unusual was found, Song Jinxiu still asked Junjun to pay more attention because she remembered that they were close to the Grand Princess's Mansion.
"First, keep an eye on it and remember the location of their granary. Then, send your animal army to keep a close eye on the Grand Princess's mansion."
"That's easy to say, but Master, please refine a few more batches of your Kailing Pills. I have too few men to use."
"it is good,"
Song Jinxiu closed the door and stayed in the space to make the elixir.
At the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, the old lady sighed and said, "His Majesty said that Princess Kangle is still young, and her marriage will be discussed after she reaches the age of marriage."
Princess Kangle is indeed a little young, but the fourth son in their family will be thirty years old in two years.
But what can they do?
Ever since Dan Hua's difficult delivery resulted in two deaths, this kid has been resisting sexual relations.
Dan Hua was his concubine. They grew up together. She became pregnant after eating the forbidden fruit at the age of fifteen.
This girl was also a fool. She was afraid that giving birth to a illegitimate son would be detrimental to her young master's marriage, so she secretly took medicine to have an abortion, resulting in two deaths.
From then on, the fourth brother never smiled again, and refused any marriage proposals. Many noble ladies from aristocratic families pretended to meet him by chance, but he didn't even bat an eyelid.
"Never mind. Finally, he found someone he likes. I'll just wait for two years."
The emperor was selfish for once. The little girl was still young, not even as old as his own Princess Mingzhu. If he wanted to marry the little girl, he would have to wait.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the end of the year.
As soon as the capital entered the twelfth lunar month, it became lively. One family sent New Year gifts to another, and that family sent New Year goods to another. It was very lively with people coming and going.
Princess Kangle's Mansion also received New Year gifts from various aristocratic families.
The annual gifts from the wealthy families and General Dingguo’s mansion were particularly generous, and there were also invitations.
The end of the year is also the busiest time for government affairs. Song Jinxiu said to Aunt Chang:
"You can reply to the New Year gifts as you wish. Decline all the invitations. Tell the visitors that I'm busy with official duties. When the New Year holiday comes, we'll treat you at my house and we can all get together then."
Song Sanzhu has been very busy these days because Song Jinxiu has entrusted him with the responsibility of preparing the New Year gifts for the old patriarch and the villagers.
He was busy discussing with Li Cheng, and was in high spirits, walking with a breeze.
This is what the eldest daughter asked him to do, so he must do it well.
The two went to their own supermarket first and picked out some things that were not available in their hometown. As soon as they walked out of the supermarket, they heard a familiar voice.
"Uncle Three."
Song Sanzhu looked over and was shocked.
The brothers Song Dalang and Song Silang were covered in dust and dirt, and their clothes were torn in several places.
The two of them hid in the corner. Silang called him, and Song Dalang looked back fearfully, as if he was avoiding someone.
Song Sanzhu frowned: "Didn't you go back? Why are you back again? And in such a state?"
He hired the carriage himself and watched them leave the city gate himself.
"Uncle San, someone wants to harm Sister San Ya, and we are risking our lives to come here and tell them."
What? Someone wants to harm my daughter? How can that be tolerated?
