Chapter 12:

Five years later, on the official road to the capital, the caravan was escorting goods and was alert to the surrounding environment. In a carriage in the middle of the caravan, a charming girl was lying on a small table bored, and the books in her hand were swayed by her. .
"Grandma, I have been in the carriage for five days." The girl put down the book and put her arms around the old lady's arm, acting like a baby.
Tang Lihua looked at the boneless appearance of her granddaughter, and pointed her forehead, "I told you a long time ago, and I can enter Beijing tomorrow."
Wang Cuilian did not agree, so she kindly massaged Tang Lihua's arms, "I'm worried that grandma will not be comfortable after sitting for a long time."
Tang Lihua smiled. In ancient times, this traffic was really inconvenient. It took six days to get from the small county to the capital.
Over the years, Tang Lihua set up a stall in the first year to accumulate capital, and in the second year, he set up a shop by himself, hired a man, and had more breakfast options. After a few years, he opened several branches in surrounding counties. Earn a lot of money.
As the saying goes, boys are poor and girls are rich. Of course, this richness does not only refer to materials.
Tang Lihua bought a large yard in the county seat and found a female master for Wang Cuilian to teach her enlightenment and literacy. She didn't need to be full of economics, just knowledge and reasonableness were enough.
Wang Cuilian was asked to learn about the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, regardless of her temperament, but in the end only persisted on the piano.
Tang Lihua also taught Wang Cuilian the correct three perspectives in her daily teaching. She took Wang Cuilian with her every month in the shop calculations. These common things also let her know.
In the past few years, Lao Wang’s family has also changed a lot. Tang Lihua moved to the county seat, and Miao also went to the county. Later, I saw that the old lady had earned so much money and wanted to share a piece of the pie. Tang Lihua directly ordered the eldest son to suppress it. Went back.
Erfang was because of the koi heroine, who found his sister and left without saying goodbye. After returning to the capital, he sent someone to pick up Erfang and his family the following year. The villagers only knew that Erfang had met the dignitaries, and some people said that Tang Lihua did not. That blessing, if you don't divide the family, you can go to the capital with Erfang to enjoy the blessing.
Later, the Tang Lihua shop became more and more famous, and those words gradually stopped.
As for the relentless attitude of Tang Lihua since the separation of the three rooms, they did not go back home in the end. It was that time when Wang Jiafa found the city and asked the third gang to look for Erya, they were all sent away by Wang Jiagui.
Wang Jiafa didn't want to go straight back at the time. He was surprised to find it dark before returning home. These were all Tang Lihua learned from her honest eldest son later.
The fourth son directly married the old carpenter's daughter and became the door-to-door son-in-law. He also gave Tang Lihua some filial piety during the holidays.
This time Tang Lihua entered Beijing, but made an exception to let Miao enter the county seat to be the shopkeeper of a branch. She said that the shopkeeper is actually an idle job, and she can’t control the accounts. The account books are delivered to it by the accountant once a month. Ewha personally appointed the chief executive to check, and every two months he would go to Beijing to report to Tang Ewha.
Tang Lihua has extremely strict control over this aspect. Those shopkeepers have long understood her methods, and they dare not play tricks under her nose. Even if people enter Beijing now, they have great confidant hands on Tang Lihua. Things, they are also honest.
In the past five years, under Tang Lihua's intentional actions, Wang Cuilian and Wang Cuiyao had very few intersections, and Wang Cuilian was brought by Tang Lihua, and she directly avoided the plot that she fell in love with the hero.
But this time she entered Beijing, she was bound to meet the hostess. Tang Lihua knew that the status of ancient merchants was extremely low, and she was an old woman with a little girl, so she was not safe at all.
There are no longer a few people who are interested in seeing money. These Tanglihuas have already been seen in modern times. After they gained a reputation, Tanglihua hired a nursing home, and even the old lady who was serving by Wang Cuilian was strong and powerful.
Tang Lihua didn't even think that there could be some talents in her family. The imperial examination was famous.
Three years ago, they consciously or unconsciously sponsored poor students and helped many people. They also opened orphanages in the county to help the elderly, widows and abandoned children, and earned the name of a kind person.
Tang Lihua also has the means to do business, but the wealth is not exposed. Everyone knows that this new-emerging old lady has the means and brains, earned a lot of money, and has a good life.
There are also merchants who have colluded with the government. It's not that Tang Lihua is not tempted by the Tang Lihua industry, but when they are about to grab it, Tang Lihua's name is already well-known and has become a wealthy business with a reputation.
Thinking about those who have been tempted by Tang Lihua's wealth these years, it seems that there is no good result, and they are shocked.
This year, when the floods occurred in the north of the Yangtze River, Tang Lihua donated half of his net worth without saying a word. At this time, it also alarmed the imperial court, and the sage issued an imperial decree and made Tang Lihua the "Yun'an Town Lord".
At this time, she changed from a village woman to a high-ranking official wife, but it shocked many people.
Tang Lihua received the good news. This time, she went to Beijing to receive her gratitude, and she had the journey to Beijing today.
This trip was a must. Tang Lihua had other worries, so she took Wang Cuilian to Beijing with her.
Now that Wang Cuilian has reached the age when she wants to see others, this girl is raised by Tang Lihua's eyes, and she doesn't look good at those merchants, and Tang Lihua doesn't force her.
This time I went to Beijing just to make a plan in advance, not necessarily to live long, if she didn't care, Tang Lihua didn't want to entangle those back-house women too much, and it would be troublesome.
The carriage drove for another day, and finally arrived in the capital at noon on the sixth day, and found a restaurant to live in, and asked the steward to find the yard as a place to stay. Tang Lihua took her granddaughter to rest for half a day, and then went to the street to hang out. .
Although Tang Lihua's business for making money abroad is only an early store, in fact, it has already been in the cloth and jewelry business.
Tang Lihua has the foresight and knows how to dye fabrics. Various colors of fabric can be dyed with patterns. She has a secret recipe. Therefore, there is such a store in Beijing that only sells five pieces of cloth a day, and each piece of cloth has Each has its own characteristics, and latecomers will not be able to catch up, and reservations are not accepted.
Such a maverick attracted a lot of attention as soon as it appeared, but most people sneered at this rule until the covered cloth showed the whole picture, and the look and pattern of the cloth suddenly surprised many people.
Tang Lihua also specifically ordered that each piece of cloth should be cut out and a woman should be found to wear it. The visual effect would be better.
So far, the cloth business has gained a reputation, not to mention jewelry. Tang Lihua has more patterns in jewelry, just draw it and let the craftsman create it.
It's just that this jewelry shop and cloth shop are in the same shop. Jewelry is more demanding than cloth. Those hairpin hairpins that are marked as fine products are all exquisite products. There will never be a second piece of the same style in this world.
Tang Lihua especially understands the mentality of those consumers. As soon as this advertisement goes out, coupled with the ingenious craftsmanship of jewelry, no matter how high the price is, someone will buy it, and the odd goods can be bought, and there is no market.
There are also ordinary style jewellery, which are faced with ladies who are not so rich in financial resources, but have a certain family status.
It's ordinary, but that style is not available in other shops, and it's more sophisticated.
For Tang Lihua, nothing is easier than doing business.
No one knew that in just one year, it became the most popular "Cuiyuxuan" among the royal nobles and official families in the capital. The owner behind it turned out to be Tanglihua in the small county.
Tang Lihua has already paved the way for coming to Beijing. Her previous experience told her that the closest way for a merchant to gain recognition from the guo family is to do good deeds and donate for disaster relief. These are basic.
And Tang Lihua donated half of the family property to help the victims. The reason why Tang Lihua can spread it to the emperor is that Tang Lihua spent money in advance to spread the matter, and then buys people around the governor and blows the ears. Tang Lihua’s move is a great good, and more It is a political achievement.
The governor only had to hand over a discount, and there was also Tang Lihua from the imperial court who had arranged the benefits. He exaggerated Tang Lihua in front of the emperor, instead of accepting bribes, he would naturally not refuse.
Tang Lihua’s name of the township was developed step by step. Tang Lihua did not avoid Wang Cuilian and explained all the advantages and disadvantages to her one by one.
As for why she had to go to Beijing to confront the heroine, it was compelling. On the day the heroine was picked up by the hero, the system issued a task to Tang Lihua, asking her to bring Wang Cuilian into Beijing within five years.
Tang Lihua knows why she has this task. The appearance of herself makes the plot of the heroine and the female partner disappear. If Tang Lihua stays in the small county with the female partner, the plot line will be incomplete.
This was also a deliberate attempt by Tang Lihua, and the final result was also expected. For the sake of the plot line to be complete, the system released this mandatory task, but Tang Lihua is not afraid of it.
Wang Cuilian, who has been teaching under her hands for five years, is no longer the wild girl in the country who only knows to bully her cousin.
"Milk, this capital is so lively." Wang Cuilian held Tang Lihua's arm with curiosity on her face.
The lively street vendors on both sides of the street made her blind to her eyes. If she hadn't looked after her grandma, she would have gone forward to see them one by one.
Tang Lihua came to ancient times. This is the first time I saw such a lively scene, with a loving smile on his face, patted the back of his granddaughter's hand, and said cheerfully, "Don't be with me, go and play."
Wang Cuilian gave a cheer, looked at the street, lowered the volume, "The milk is the best. I'll pick some good things for the milk."
After speaking, he went to the vendors on both sides of the street, and the two women who were serving her complained to Tang Lihua and hurriedly followed.
Tang Lihua slowly followed behind, also observing the customs of the capital.
It didn't take long for Wang Cuilian to disappear. With the two women there, and the capital was at the feet of the emperor, Tang Lihua didn't worry about her safety, so she didn't restrict herself.
"Old lady, it's okay, the young lady has a conflict with people." Tang Lihua was attracted by a candy-squeezing stall, and one of the women who had followed Wang Cuihua hurriedly ran back. Anxious face.
"Old Li's family, what's the matter with you?" Chang Ma, the old woman behind Tang Lihua, immediately stepped forward and asked questions for her master.
The woman hurriedly explained what had happened, and finally urged, "The slave family sees that she is an official lady. She is very arrogant. She also talked to a few family members, so she hurried back to report to the old lady."
Tang Lihua's expression remained unchanged. She believed that Wang Cuilian would not fall into the trap, but she still ordered her mother-in-law, "Chang Ma, go find the steward and bring a few people over. I'll take a look first."
"Yes, old lady." Chang's mother answered, and left in a hurry. Tang Lihua followed Lao Li's family to the troubled place.
That was the cloth storehouse. At this time, it was already surrounded by the people who love to watch the excitement. The two women opened their way in front, and Tang Lihua finally walked in.
"Miss, I have already said that if I give you this cloth, why are you still aggressive?" Wang Cuilian is no longer the naughty and naughty in front of Tang Lihua at this moment, as if she has changed a person, speaking softly, everyone The etiquette of the lady is full.
Facing the opposing lady with a domineering face, she frowned slightly, even more delicate and pitiful.
Tang Lihua didn't rush forward when she saw this, to see how this granddaughter resolved it.
"What do you mean by letting me? The thing this lady is after is this lady's. When did it take your unnamed hillbilly to give in?" He Xuanxuan said unreasonably, her expression revealing her dislike for Wang Cuilian .
Wang Cuilian sighed. She was not angry when she heard what she said, and she asked helplessly, "What does the young lady want from me to make you satisfied?"
He Xuanxuan was immediately proud, she didn't have the style of a family lady. She was indeed not a family lady, but a Yuanfang watch lady from the Hou Mansion. She was only taken to the capital a few days ago, so few people there knew her.
battle
He Xuanxuan has already tasted a lot of sweetness in the reputation of the Hou Mansion, so when she saw the same cloth as Wang Cuilian, she accidentally stepped on the corner of her skirt. When Wang Cuilian apologized and said that she would give her the cloth, Still looking for the trouble of Wang Cuilian.
