"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhu Xiuyuan bowed, feeling relieved.
"I will give you another waistband of 'Walking in the Outer Court'. With this waistband, your beloved can go straight to the Chengtian Gate without acknowledging it, and you can travel unimpeded in the imperial city!"
Emperor Chen waved his hand, and a young eunuch walked in outside the side door of the hall, carrying a tray, bowed his head, and cautiously walked towards Zhu Xiuyuan.
Zhu Xiu looked far away and saw that there was indeed a waist badge in the tray. It was golden and made of gold.
Under the belt, there was a thick yellow cushion. The yellow color and the golden belt complemented each other, and Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly felt a sense of grandeur and grandeur.
Zhu Xiuyuan thanked Emperor Chen, picked up the badge and pinned it on his belt.
"come in!"
Concubine You suddenly called out to the outside of the hall.
As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged and tall eunuch was seen walking quickly into the hall, side by side with Zhu Xiuyuan, and then saluted Emperor Chen and Concubine You on the imperial steps.
"I wish Aiqing, this is the eunuch of the inner treasury, Jiawu. The subsequent cooperation between Aiqing and the inner treasury in refining salt will be handled by Jiawu in detail. Aiqing can discuss the details with Jiawu."
Concubine You said with a smile.
Then he continued: "Of course, if you have any inconvenience, you can ask Jiawu to take action on your behalf!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Imperial Concubine!" Zhu Xiuyuan bowed again.
"Master Marquis, I have admired his name for a long time, and now I can finally see his true face. How lucky our family is!" The eunuch Jiawu, the eunuch in charge of the inner treasury beside him, took the initiative to salute.
Jiawu was tall and thin, with a philistine look on his face. He smiled broadly and looked too shrewd.
"Eunuch A, haha, I'll have more work to do in the future!" Zhu Xiuyuan smiled in return.
"Oh, the Marquis is serious about his words. The strategy of refining salt is a matter of great importance to Your Majesty and the Empress. Our family does not dare to neglect it. In the future, we hope that the Marquis will give you more guidance!"
Jiawu nodded and bowed, with a shrewd look on his face and a very low posture.
"Jiawu, please take Zhu Aiqing to the Inner Treasury Supervisor for a walk, so that we can discuss first how to implement this refined salt policy!" Emperor Chen ordered.
Zhu Xiuyuan and Jiawu both raised their hands and said "yes".
"I wish my dear, today is a festive day, the wind is sunny and beautiful, it is the day to go out together. My dear, you are newly married. Please finish your work early and go back home early."
"Although this refined salt strategy is very urgent, it is not urgent for just one or two days..." Chen Huang added.
Emperor Chen was in a very good mood and glanced sideways at Concubine You.
Concubine You responded with a smile.
Not only Zhu Xiuyuan has to celebrate the Shangsi Festival, but Emperor Chen and Concubine You also have to celebrate it!
After Zhu Xiuyuan thanked Jiawu again, he immediately left the Qin'an Hall.
The eunuch Jiawu, the inner treasurer, was very polite and said with a smile on his face: "Master Marquis, yesterday evening, the empress told our family about the policy of refined salt."
"Among these, what... points... points..." Jiawu frowned, his shrewd face was no longer shrewd, but looked like one with constipation, as if something was stuck and couldn't come out.
"How to distribute?"
"Yes, it's the distribution method!"
Jiawu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "To be honest with you, Lord Marquis, we have been eunuchs in the inner treasury since we were sixteen years old, helping your majesty and your concubine to purchase rare treasures from all over the world."
"In the past, our family also boasted that we had seen all kinds of merchants in the world and knew all kinds of business methods very well!"
"But since last night, haha, I am not afraid of Mr. Hou's jokes, but our family is really confused about the distribution method!"
"Your Majesty and your concubine both attach great importance to the refined salt policy, but our family...can't get enough of it!"
"The Marquis has a distinguished status and is highly valued by Your Majesty and the Concubine. Our family also respects the Marquis very much... Therefore, our family dare not hide anything."
"Please take the time to teach me how to distribute this product. Our family will be extremely grateful!"
Saying that, the Jiawu leader saluted and bowed down.
"My father-in-law, your words are serious, please get up quickly."
Zhu Xiuyuan gave him a weak support, and then said with a smile: "Eunuch A, don't worry, this policy of refining salt is of great importance. If Eunuch A doesn't understand anything, you can send someone to ask at any time."
"After all, our common goal is to get this matter done! Moreover, I do have some matters that I need to handle with the help of Eunuch A. Please don't refuse, Eunuch A."
Zhu Xiuyuan said finally.
"Ouch! Don't worry, Mr. Hou, if anything happens, our family will definitely find a solution!"
The Sino-Japanese War brings great joy, and Pidianpidian leads the way, "Master Marquis, please come here. Let's first familiarize Master Marquis with the inner treasury supervisor..."
The inner garden of the palace where Emperor Chen lived and worked daily was called the Forbidden City. It was an inner city within the imperial city and had its own moat and city gate.
The Imperial City is an inner city within the capital and has its own gates and moats.
Within the Imperial City and outside the Forbidden City, in this area, there are the Altar of Sheji, the Imperial Ancestral Temple, the prisons and treasuries of the inner palace, and the camps of Jinwu Left Guard and Jinwu Right Guard, etc.
The inner treasury supervisor who was in charge of Jiawu was located in this imperial city.
Emperor Chen gave Zhu Xiuyuan the badge of "Walk in the Outer Court", which allowed him to go directly to the inner treasury prison of the imperial city to facilitate his work.
"Master Hou, please come this way!"
Under the leadership of Jiawu, they left the Forbidden City from "Xihua Gate", crossed the moat, and came to "Xi'an Gate Inner Street".
Then they turned left and walked in circles for a while, and they arrived at a government office.
The gold-lettered signboard of "Inner Treasury Supervisor" hangs high.
This is the office space of the inner treasury supervisor. There are various officials, various eunuchs in charge, etc. It also stores various accounts and confidential documents of the inner treasury supervisor.
After a tour, Jiawu took Zhu Xiuyuan and came to the right side of "Xi'an Mennei Street". There was a large area here filled with various warehouses.
The inner treasury supervisor's warehouse is here, occupying a large area.
Each warehouse is locked and has special personnel to guard it. As soon as Jiawu and Zhu Xiuyuan approached, those people became vigilant...
The contents in the inner treasury are considered Emperor Chen’s personal property. Who dares to touch them?
Those gatekeepers don’t care what kind of god you are, even if the crown prince comes, they still don’t care!
Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan was unable to enter the inner treasury and take a peek at Chen Huang's private property.
Even Jiawu, the internal treasurer and eunuch, did not dare to be too presumptuous in front of those people, let alone Zhu Xiuyuan, an outsider.
After only a cursory stroll around, they returned to the Neiku Supervisory Office.
After chatting for a while, Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly said: "Eunuch A, although the cost of this refined salt is not high, if you want to cook it in large quantities, there is still a lot of preparation work to be done."
"Master Marquis, please give me your instructions. If our family can help, I will definitely do it!" Jiawu is also a good person.
"Eunuch A, after the King of Jiangdu of Yangzhou disappeared during the war, I heard that his farm and real estate were taken back by your Majesty?"
Zhu Xiuyuan asked.
