Qing Dynasty: I Rely on Games To Fight For Favor - Chapter 157
Xia Mian took a look at the big boss’ tent, but didn’t dare to bother, so she decided to eat first before talking.
She was really hungry after running for most of the day.
what to eat? When we arrive in Mongolia, we naturally want to eat barbecue.
Put a pot of charcoal fire to pickle all kinds of meat skewers, and Xia Mian personally grills them. Baking by yourself may not be as good as a chef’s, but it’s fun.
Suddenly, a bunch of meat skewers with thick thumbs began to spit oil, dripping onto the charcoal fire, giving birth to a special aroma.
Turn around, sprinkle chili, cumin, and some sesame oil, Xia Mian took a bite, the outside is burnt and the inside is tender, hot and fragrant, delicious!
After eating a bunch of meat skewers, come with delicious fried rice, the taste is absolutely perfect.
By the way, there is also good Mongolian wine. Mongolian wine is brewed from milk, also called milk wine. It has a fragrant and milky fragrance. I fell in love with Xia Mian when I drank it. At this time, I ate with meat skewers. Looking at the wilderness outside, she suddenly felt free and easy. , Life is to have fun in this way.
She was eating here, and Da Ge Ge came, her face was still reddish.
Just in time, Xia Mian asked her to sit down and eat.
Da Gege is here to thank Xia Mian. She can see that she is sincerely thinking about her.
Sitting down, she ate two skewers and drank a little mare cumin, her face flushed and she wanted to stop talking.
“What?” Xia Mian asked her.
Da Ge Ge lowered his head and asked in an inaudible voice, “Who do you think is better?”
She was very clueless to ask this, but Xia Mian understood what she meant. She was asking Geller or Haizhigu, which is better. What did she say? She thinks that both teenagers are pretty good.
Besides, it doesn’t matter whichever she likes, she has to like it herself.
“Geller has a straightforward personality, and if you like it, you will like it very much. If you don’t like it, you will say it directly. It should be very easy to get along with him. However, such a person is rough and may not be tame.
He is the eldest prince of Mobei, and the burden on his body may be heavier, but that’s okay, generally the eldest in the family will be more responsible.
As for Hai Rigu, he may be influenced by the princess, he prefers the culture of the Central Plains, likes to read, and gets along with him. There may be many topics in common. However, he is an old man of Da Khan, spoiled since childhood, may be a little arrogant.
Moreover, Manda Khan is getting old and may face it in a few years…”
The rest of Xia Mian won’t talk about it. As Daqing Gege, she should understand this.
The change of power is a good thing or not a good thing, depending on how you look at it, so this is not a disadvantage of Hai Rigu. If Da Gege marries him, has the support of Da Qing, and has Princess Monan running around for him, he may not be the next khan, and Da Gege’s identity must be more noble.
Marrying Geller, I should be able to live a stable life in a short time, but I won’t know it later.
Xia Mian didn’t say which of the two teenagers was good or bad, but the guest officer told Da Gege about their strengths and weaknesses, and it was up to her to decide in the end. After all, this is her life.
There were fine beads of sweat coming out of the tip of Da Gege’s nose, and she had difficulty making a choice.
Xia Mian patted her hand, embarrassed her. In such a short period of time, she must choose someone who will accompany her for the rest of her life.
However, she is also considered lucky. At least, these two teenagers are good, and she has met them. In this era, many people still marry blindly. It’s hard to see her husband in the bridal chamber. Imagine.
Xia Mian criticized the evil feudal society while thinking about herself. When she came over, she became a small promise from the big boss. It seemed that she was not as good as others. At least they had worn the wedding gown once, and she didn’t even have this.
No, I have to make up for it in the future, otherwise I will regret it. Xia Mian thinks of her own thoughts, Da Gege is also in a trance, quiet in the tent.
At this time, footsteps came from outside.
“The emperor is here!” Hearing Liang Jiugong’s voice in the tent on the grassland, there was an indescribable sense of violation.
Xia Mian and Da Ge Ge quickly got up to meet the big boss.
Kangxi’s expression was not very good, and he motioned to them to get up, then sat on the low couch next to him, and looked at Xia Mian’s skewers on the fire.
I didn’t watch it for a while, the meat skewers were a bit dry, Xia Mian picked it up embarrassedly and asked him if he wanted to eat it.
Kangxi really ate it.
Xia Mian…Big boss, you don’t have to wrong yourself so much.
Kangxi asked what she was doing with Da Gege today.
Da Gege’s face turned red with a swish, and after a few words, he got up and quit.
Kangxi looked puzzled.
When Da Gege left, Xia Mian told him what had happened in the morning.
She didn’t dare to keep the treasure knife by herself and show it to the boss.
Kangxi liked all kinds of treasures very much. He looked at the knife and admired a few times, but he didn’t ask for it, saying that since it was given to Yinyi, Xia Mian would take it for Yinyi first, and wait for him. Give it to him when he grows up.
Xia Mian was surprised and delighted. This was a treasure used by Genghis Khan, but the boss didn’t even want it.
Later, when she saw the expression on Kangxi’s face, she suddenly understood what Genghis Khan was like. In her eyes, he was a great hero and a legendary character. In the eyes of the big boss, he was a person worthy of admiration. , Perhaps, he still wants to compare with him, even overwhelm him, after all, this is also one of the top emperors in history.
Of course, he didn’t care so much about the sword used by Genghis Khan.
Thinking of this, Xia Mian suddenly felt that she had overwhelmed the big boss, and she felt a sense of accomplishment.
With a mouthful, she kissed the boss on the face.
Kangxi looked at her and thought she was a bit strange today.
Xia Mian doesn’t care, she kisses if she likes it, doesn’t the big boss like it?
Kangxi shook his head and continued to eat meat skewers and drink.
Xia Mian grilled a few skewers again, and then while watching him eat, he remembered another thing. The people in Mongolia are too bitter, and she wants to help them.
If you want to make money, relying on selling labor or raw materials is a bad idea, and it is best to go high and sharp.
What is so much about Mongolia? Cattle and sheep, especially sheep, wool can be called “soft gold”. Now Mongolian wool is mostly sold as felt, which is rough and abnormal. How much money can it sell? Not to mention selling sheepskin jackets, and ordinary people will buy them to keep out the cold.
If the wool is finely processed, the situation will be very different immediately.
Cashmere clothes are soft and warm, well-designed, luxurious and elegant, and are definitely sought after by a large number of people. A good cashmere coat in modern times is tens of thousands, which is not a boast.
Wool blankets, made into exquisite patterns, may be exported overseas, don’t many Europeans like this!
There are also cashmere quilts, which are particularly comfortable and warm to cover, and the price is not cheap.
There are also some woolen products that I haven’t thought of for a while in summer sleep, but these are enough.
In Xia Mian’s plan, she can lend grain to the Mongolian people, but she has to sign a contract with them. She sends them technical guidance to design patterns and styles for them, and they make them themselves. Then they will use these made wool products to repay their debts. , Mongolian people can be regarded as a stable source of income, do not have to worry about the weather every year.
Cowhide products are also available, such as cowhide bags, cowhide shoes and so on.
Of course, one thing is very important. After borrowing her grain, she has invested so much, their future products can only be sold to her, or she will have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages. With a big boss as the backer, she is not afraid of the Mongols going back.
Having said this, Xia Mian suddenly felt a little ashamed. How did she feel like a shameless exploiter? Obviously, her starting point is to make a living for the Mongolian people.
She looked at the big boss eagerly.
“Good plan!” Kangxi exclaimed after he shot the case, and stood up suddenly, with a bright expression on his face. He was worried about how to solve Mongolia’s food problem. Xia Mian’s idea was a magical idea.
The Mongols are so brave and have never been too compliant with the Qing’s control. This plan controls almost half of their lifeline, so they won’t worry about trouble in the future.
If things go on like this, Wang Zhi will inevitably be able to broadcast.
At that time, the Mongols had the sweetness. Maybe their khan wanted to make trouble, but they would not agree!
It not only solved his urgent need, but also benefited the whole society. How did Xia Mian come up with such a good idea?
Can’t help it, he also wants to kiss Xia Mian.
However, he was still calm and didn’t move at all.
“The emperor thinks it’s okay?” Xia Mian asked in surprise.
“There is no better idea than this.” Kangxi said, he felt it was really right to bring Xia Mian this time. No, every time he has trouble, he can always get some enlightenment from Xia Mian, she is his great lucky star.
It seems that no matter where you go in the future, you have to take her with you.
Xia Mian heard this and felt happy, but now she won’t get a good impression if she doesn’t take the task.
The two sat down and discussed the plan in detail.
For this matter, Xia Mian had to come forward, after all, it had something to do with the business, and the identity of the big boss was inappropriate.
Xia Mian’s assistant, the fertilizer does not flow into the field of outsiders, she naturally recommends Qin Jiye to do this. He has the status of the emperor and is cautious and tidy, and he will definitely be able to help her do this.
Kangxi also nodded and agreed.
This plan was absolutely profitable, and Xia Mian didn’t dare to swallow all the benefits. She tactfully said that she was only doing things for the big boss, and the final profit, of course, all belonged to the big boss.
She was retreating for advancement, and Kangxi smiled and snorted.
The profit is four or six, he is six, and Xia Mian is four.
Xia Mian still feels that it is too high, earning too much money, but also has a life to spend, twenty-eight, she only needs two. Even these two are absolutely profitable. What’s more, this is a cooperation with the big boss, and the accompanying meaning is by no means comparable.
Kangxi liked Xia Mian more and more. He even felt that she was a hundred times stronger than his greedy and incompetent subordinates. If the courtiers of the Qing Dynasty were like her, why not worry that the Qing Dynasty is not strong and the people are not rich.
So settled, Xia Mian wrote a letter overnight, asking Qin Jiye to get a batch of grain first, and if the money was not enough, the big boss would fund it. Then, just discuss the matter together.
After finishing writing, Kangxi used the carrier pigeons in the army to help her deliver the letter, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.
