    Silver number, if there is no power, the money will be slow.

    At this

    s

    To engage in finance, of course there is nothing to say if it is not successful, but most of it is also a Shen Wansan, and it is not worth it.

    Sell ​​salt tea, it's not that it won't come up over time.

    The Lu family's money is quite a lot in the back house, but compared with the big businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it is a drop in the bucket.

    Throwing it into the canal, I'm afraid there won't be a few water splashes.

    Other industrial things are too tiring to do, and the feasibility is too low.

    So after thinking about it and not thinking of a suitable entry point, Lu Jinxi put it aside for the time being, and just kept paying attention to the situation everywhere, waiting for an opportunity.

    Just wait, wait until now.

    There is such a way to make money absolutely, she should have thought of it long ago, but it was not until yesterday that she attended the peace conference and saw the different dresses of the Huns.

    trade.

    And it has to be the border trade between Daxia and the Xiongnu and various ethnic groups in the Western Regions!

    Daxia has been at war with the Huns for a long time, and all kinds of military supplies should have been dispatched by the imperial court. But in fact, the border crossing is far away, and Beijing and China are beyond reach.

    So in fact, all kinds of military supplies are solved by businessmen.

    These merchants often follow the army, dispatching and gathering supplies, which can be said to be making deals with the imperial court, which is called "trade with the army".

    But the war ended six years ago, and now after the two countries have reached peace, even the troops stationed at the border have to withdraw.

    As a result, the military demand must be greatly reduced.

    The trade with the army that these merchants originally relied on will immediately shrink. Those with deep roots have a way to go back and continue to return to Daxia to do business; but if they have weak roots, the end will not be so comfortable.

    Short-sighted people may not see it clearly, thinking that business opportunities are just cut off.

    But in Lu Jinxi's view, the source of wealth has just come out!

    The two countries negotiating peace is not just as simple as handing a letter of peace. There must be a series of follow-up cooperation to consolidate the relationship between the two sides.

    Here, the word "trade" must be the top priority.

    Moreover, if she remembered correctly, these matters related to the Xiongnu and the various ethnic groups in the Western Regions happened to be managed by the Ministry of Rites. Doesn't that happen to be under the hands of Lu's father, Lu Jiuling?

    This is a godsend.

    It doesn't necessarily mean that there is a back door to go, so that Lu Jiuling can go easily, as long as he can find out the direction of the court, it will be of great help.

    People can go against the trend, of course, is a skill;

    It is possible to catch the general trend and follow the trend, why is it not a skill?

    In the last life, Lu Jinxi was in contact with a bunch of dog-like investors in the venture capital circle. In addition to the "unicorns" of this group of people, there is also a phrase "pigs in the air" that Chang Ai hangs on.

    As long as you stand on the tuyere, even a pig can fly.

    So in many cases, doing the right thing is very important, but finding the right "air outlet" is even more important.

    Now she is counting with her fingers, and the border trade after the negotiation can be considered a climax no matter what.

    The remaining questions are, how to do this, and...

    When did the wind start to blow.

    "Whoa..."

    Pulling a page of paper, she thought about it and recorded her thoughts on it.

    A morning passed quickly.

    Egret has not heard any useful news for the time being, but Qingque came back tremblingly and told her that the matter she explained to contact last night had been contacted.

    Yin Liuer went to contact Song Zhiyan, and there should be an answer in the evening.

    Lu Jinxi nodded and waited patiently.

    Seeing that the situation in the spring was just right, she went to the yard for a walk in the afternoon, and took the time to praise Kuapan Quan'er that the garden had been improved well, and that the flowers and plants had grown into a new look.

    So he gave another bounty.

    After sunset in the afternoon, the news from Song Zhiyan came, saying that it was tomorrow afternoon and could meet at Mingyuelou.

    Mingyuelou is a famous big theater in Beijing. It is often haunted by dignitaries, and it is not very suspicious to go in and out. Sometimes the places with the most people are the safest.

    So after listening, Lu Jinxi didn't object.

    I only said to Qingque, so decided to go to the play tomorrow.

    Qingque also didn't know what medicine she was selling in the gourd.

    After all, it was clear to those around them that, these days, Madam's ability has only increased a little bit? Even if there is any unexpected decision, they are not the ones who dare to talk about it now.

    So she took the order and went to prepare anxiously.

    Of course Lu Jinxi could see it, but he didn't really care.

    This kind of thing, she said that she and Song Zhiyan had come to a clean conclusion, and they would not believe it. But she doesn't need them to believe it, let alone whether she can make a clean conclusion with Song Zhiyan this time, and she will see when she has time.

    In a sense, Qingque's worries are not wrong.

    After she left, the egret, who went outside to inquire about the news, ran back with bright eyes.

    Before anyone entered the room, the excited voice had already come in.

    "Madam, Madam, I heard it! It's really unexpected, I can't believe it!"

    Just came back and said this?

    Lu Jinxi heard it, looked up from the book "North-South Travel Notes", and saw the excited face of the egret.

    In layman's terms, a face full of the word "gossip".

    Seriously, she doubted the value of the news.

    But after hesitating for a moment, she still asked face-saving: "What happened? Why can't you believe it?"

    "It's Young Master Gu!" Bailu ran to Lu Jinxi's side before she could breathe, and seemed to want to keep her voice down, but she couldn't hold back the hidden excitement, her fists were clenched, only Said, "Eldest Young Master Gu, he actually went to the Ministry of Rites!"

    "what?"

    The book in Lu Jinxi's hand almost fell to the ground. At the moment when he heard this sentence, both eyelids jumped up: both fortune and disaster!

    Is there such a coincidence?

    Maybe her expression was too stunned, but the egret was a little frightened, she was stunned for a moment, and then she said cautiously: "Husband, madam, what's wrong?"

    "No, no."

    Lu Jinxi shook her head, but she never thought that she would hear the news from the egret, and her brows suddenly twitched.

    "Isn't it all rumored yesterday that the old lady obstructed and did not recommend Gu Juefei to be an official? Why did you go to the Ministry of Rites today?"

    Egret's eyes were wide open. Although she was not very familiar with the eldest son of Gu, she always felt that her wife was different from the eldest son. So she was happy to see that Young Master Gu was doing well.

    At this time, when Lu Jinxi asked why, she hurriedly smiled and said, "This slave is about to say this. You are at home, so you must not know. This time, it's all thanks to Mrs. Lu that Young Master Gu can successfully join the Ministry of Rites!"

    Lu, Lu Jiuling?!

    If you don't listen, it's enough. When Lu Jinxi heard it, she felt that the whole person was not very good, and she felt a creepy feeling, as if she was being watched by a wolf in the dark.

    She raised her hand and pressed her eyelids, which were jumping wildly: "How about being more specific?"

    "Oh, this has to start from before."

    Egret thought for a while, clarified his thoughts, and then opened his mouth.

    "Hasn't the eldest son traveled around before? Going west, he has also been to the border, to the Western Regions, and has been exposed to the writing culture there. He can be regarded as one of the few people in the DPRK who knows the Western Regions. I have to deal with matters related to the Xiongnu and the Western Regions, and I can't do what I want, so I asked the eldest son for advice in private. No, this morning, I simply wrote a book and asked the emperor for someone, asking the eldest son to be transferred from the Hanlin Academy to the Ministry of Rites. , specializes in managing external affairs. I have been arguing all morning, and they are all making trouble. I heard that the old lady doesn't agree."
