Chapter 2069 Awareness(1/2)

Chapter 2070 Awareness

However, the Buddha is in the west and the Bodhisattva’s waving is a bit scary, so it’s better to hold a willow branch.

To attract wealth...

The God of Wealth holds a gold ingot...

Shu Shu looked at Brother Jiu and said, "Sir, don't just make Buddha statues. It's not good. Can you also make Taoist gods?"

Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu and said, "Taoist? Sanqing?"

So where to sell it?

Shu Shu pointed to the God of Wealth enshrined at the back of the study and said: "Where is the God of Wealth? There are all wealthy merchants who do not worship..."

Brother Jiu looked up and suddenly realized, he couldn't help but slapped his forehead and said: "I am confused, I only want to make money from the north. There are hundreds of big families in the south of the Yangtze River!"

This in-house design is a signature.

Since ancient times, there has been no separation between government and business.

This large and wealthy family also lacks items to enhance their status.

Brother Jiu said to Shu Shu: "The God of Wealth is just right, he is holding a gold ingot in his hand..."

When he got interested, he went to the study room and started writing.

The Buddha statue that protects peace, the God of Wealth that prays for wealth...

We have both Buddhism and Taoism, but what is missing is Confucianism...

But Confucianism...

Brother Jiu looked at Shu Shu and said, "The scholars are all very vain. They don't like to talk about money. In fact, they are just thieves. They don't take enough advantage. It's really not easy to get them to take out money."

Seeing that he wanted to catch them all, Shu Shu hurriedly advised him: "I don't have much money, but I still like to raise a big banner and talk about justice. I'd better stay away from him, otherwise I won't know how to be slandered by them."

Brother Jiu thought about it, put down his pen and said: "Yes, it's a shame. If I really take advantage of them, I'll go back to the censor and he won't stop..."

There are no small shops in the capital that can sell Western items. They are all large shops.

There are about thirty houses in the inner city and outer city combined.

Guidan asked a few smart stewards of Baylor Mansion, divided them into several routes, and spent most of the day visiting all these shops.

Before dinner, he personally returned to Haidian to return to work, with a total of four various small gadgets.

"These foreign goods are either from Jiangnan or Guangzhou. There are countless shops where you can eat them. I walked around them all today, but these are new things that have only been available in the past two years. Only three stores sell them, and these are the only types.

There are four kinds, and there are several of each. I didn’t round them up, but I checked the inventory, and there are nine pieces in total outside..."

Guidan said.

Brother Jiu said: "Thank you for your hard work. Don't ask the people below to work hard in vain. We will pay the money from the account and give each person half a month's money!"

Guidan thanked him and returned to the city.

The housing here in Haidian is limited, so apart from the people serving in the inner courtyard, only the guards and soldiers who work in shifts are left.

After Guidan left, Shu Shu and Brother Jiu looked at these four impressive Western toys.

A red rooster that can walk, a soldier that can play drums, a puppy that can pour wine, and a sailboat that can swim in the water.

These things were his own, so Brother Jiu started to dismantle them.

After dismantling two pieces in a row, Brother Jiu saw it and said to Shu Shu: "It's like a clock, with gears to rotate. I understand, this uses a spring, but it's much rougher than a clock.

If the in-house manufacturer can make a clock, there will definitely be no problem with this."

Shu Shu also understood and said: "But wasn't the bell office just installed a few years ago? There shouldn't be many craftsmen, right?"

It is said that clocks can be made inside the building, but the quantity must be extremely rare, because they have not been exported at all.

Even for princes like them, the clocks used in the palace are also Western clocks.

After the palace was built, the newly added clocks and clocks were all Western items and were not made in-house.

Brother Jiu frowned and said: "He is a clockmaker from Russia, but there are also copper-making masters who follow him, so he should be able to get started."

Shu Shu said: "Then you have to prepare the report. Don't delay the internal manufacturing for external things. Then the gain will outweigh the loss."

Brother Jiu also understood the importance and nodded: "Well, I will pay for it myself later. I will try to do two things in the office first, calculate the cost, and then write down the details carefully. Since I have to use people from the palace, I will definitely be sweating.

Ma nodded."

This is to make money for the Lifanyuan, not for myself. It must be upright.

Brother Jiu has dexterous hands, and he can dismantle and assemble mechanical things like this.

He understood the principle and reassembled the two things that he had taken apart.

"My eldest brother's birthday has passed, otherwise the one with the puppy pouring wine would be the perfect gift for him..."

Brother Jiu said: "Let's put away the drum beater, don't let the children see it, otherwise there will be no peace..."

There are many children at home, so some of them are afraid of noise.

The couple has had enough in the past few years.

The rooster and sailboat are left for the children to play with.

Shu Shu's eyes fell on the drum-beating soldier.

Doll-type toys are often taboo, but in addition to Buddha statues and immortal statues, there is another category that is not taboo.

That is the erotic porcelain or bronze figure included in the bride's dowry.

But it’s better not to make that kind of money, it doesn’t sound good...

Pills and medicinal wine can also be related to health preservation. This is too straightforward...

Early the next morning, Ni Guzhu came back from the North Garden early.

"I have prepared a gift for Third Sister. I wonder what Third Sister will give me?"

She said full of expectation.

Brother Jiu looked at the thing that Hazel was holding and asked Shu Shu, "Didn't we prepare it?"

Shu Shu shook her head and said, "You have to prepare it yourself."

Ni Guzhu said: "I chose it together with Uku's mother..."

With that said, she asked Hazel to put down the brocade box and opened it.

Inside is a set of three blue and white glaze toy bottles, the smallest is half the size of a finger, and the largest is about the size of a thumb.

Brother Jiu A knows good things. He couldn't help but pick one up and look at it, and said to Shu Shu: "It's not easy to find it outside. This must be something from Yuan Dynasty..."

Shu Shu heard the year and said, "It is probably passed down from the palace."

Ni Guzhu said: "Third sister wears an ivory bracelet on her hand. She must like the color white. This color looks fair and pure. I chose it!"

Brother Jiu put it back, nodded and said: "Well, this is how you should give gifts. The most important thing is to give them what you like."

Ni Guzhu puffed out her chest and said proudly: "Mother Uku said so too..."

After going to the back room to have breakfast with Mrs. Bo, Ni Guzhu was ready to set off.

Although the distance was short, a carriage was still arranged.

In addition to Hazel, Xiaosong was also following.

The carriage can only go to the entrance of the West Garden, and there is still more than half a mile from the entrance of the West Garden to the Tuoyuan Bookstore.

Because when I went to Xitousuo, I only picked up people but didn’t drop them off, and it’s the same today.

However, the couple still sent their daughter to the door, and arranged several guards and military guards to follow.

The arrangements for the first office and the second office are similar, and the carriage has stopped at the door.

Shu Shu and Brother Ninth walked to the door in person. Brother Ninth took his daughter into the car and said, "Follow the sisters and play in the house. Don't run outside the house."

The pond in the west garden is big and there is too much water.

The Touyuan Bookstore is surrounded by water on three sides, and Brother Jiu is even more worried.

Ni Guzhu's eyes widened and he said, "But I want to pick apricots. There are no apricots in the house..."

Brother Ninth became more and more worried.

He had lived in the West Garden and knew that the apricot grove was on the dike near the water in the northwest corner.

He looked at Xiaosong.

Xiaosong said: "Don't worry, Mr. Beile, as long as you leave the house, my servant will guard Da Gege."

Brother Jiu nodded and said to Ni Guzhu: "Don't ask us to worry about it. We are not allowed to run around when the time comes."

"Uh-huh……"

Ni Guzhu nodded and said: "I don't want to play in the water..."

It happened that adults also came out from the first and second offices.
To be continued...
