Chapter 133 Think about it, give it a try
Kang Wan got up at four o'clock.
Nothing else, just for those New Year gifts.
Every year, the Zhao family would give New Year gifts to their fellow clans. They gave them simple things when they were not making their fortune before. A knife of tofu and a few steamed buns were also a gift. The meat they had to offer after worshiping ancestors, and some dried vegetables that were dried at home on weekdays would be a decent meal.
Later, the Zhao family became prosperous, and the New Year ceremony rose. Before, when worshiping ancestors, there were only three animals, pigs, chickens, fish, and mistresses. Now, there are three animals, pigs, cattle, and sheep. The scope of the New Year ceremony is not only the same family of the Zhao family, but the entire Dazhao Village covers it.
There are also different levels of this. There are those who have a relationship, and those who have a poor family and a rich family, which depends on the situation.
However, as the economy of Dazhaozhuang people improved one after another, the poor and rich families could be ignored. However, the Zhao family had another new concern - those whose families worked in the Zhao family's industry.
This year is the first year for Kangguan to enter the game, and everything is the first time. This represents not only a memorial, but also a huge pressure.
She didn't want to make any mistakes in such a thing.
I got up at four o'clock and took the girl to the warehouse, preparing to take the New Year's greetings myself.
Zhao Liang rubbed his face and was quite helpless towards Kang Guan. This man is strong in his bones. He is not willing to be weaker than others in anything he does, and he is even more unwilling to ask others to pick out something wrong.
Such a personality naturally helped Zhao Liang very much. In just three months, not to mention that the West Courtyard was firmly controlled by her, she even straightened out the matters of the entire Zhao family.
There are big and small things in hand. Not only did Zhao Ma and Grandma Zhao save a lot of worry, but Zhao Liang also saves him.
But how can Kangguan not be tired?
Moreover, with the development and growth of the Zhao family in the future, there will inevitably be more trouble in the future. If she still takes care of all the big and small things like this in a few years, it will not work. She will have to be tired!
However, Kang Wan has just entered the door, so this way of holding power is the most correct and safest.
It was getting brighter and it was seven o'clock before Kang Wan came back in a cold air.
The two of them had their meals and said a few words, the people from the East Court came to invite them.
It's time to do serious things.
Although the power of the Zhao clan is firmly grasped in the hands of the Zhao family, the power of the clan leader of the old man Zhao has not lost at all, he is not the longest-class person in the Zhao clan.
There are still a few ancestors in Dazhaozhuang, and the oldest one is 89 years old.
In the current era, Minglun must respect him three points when he encounters this age.
Although the old man is not dizzy or deaf and has a good spirit, every year when worshiping ancestors, Zhao Dad and Zhao Liang would come to invite him respectfully.
It is also necessary that the eldest son and the grandson come in person, and neither Zhao Erdun nor Zhao Hui are suitable.
Zhao Liang did not return to the West Courtyard in the afternoon after this busy work. Even though he was strong, he felt tired.
It is a big event to worship ancestors. All the men from the entire Zhao clan came to the scene, and then knelt in front of the ancestors to listen to Mr. Zhao counting the happy events that happened to the Zhao family and the entire Zhao clan this year.
From whom I got married, who had children, who had a new house, who had a farmer, who had a farmer, who had a farmer, who had a child who had a school, who had a good fortune... And how did the Zhao family crush the Zhang family this year, how did it make a fortune, how many new products were purchased, and Zhao Hui passed the county examination and the government examination. Although he failed to achieve the reputation of a scholar as he wished, he also added glory to the Zhao family...
What he said was that he was happy and energetic, but he would make the people below suffer.
The elderly all have seats. After burning incense and kowtow, they were helped up by the younger generation. But everyone else had to kneel straight. If everyone hadn't had cushions under their knees, someone would have to walk out of the ancestral hall today.
But it was also after this kneeling that the busiest time of the entire New Year holiday passed.
It is time to stay up to New Year's Eve. Although I have to walk around the village on the first and second day of the lunar month, it can actually make people breathe a sigh of relief.
Then there were a series of visits to relatives.
It was not until the Lantern Festival of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month that the atmosphere of the year gradually dissipated.
Dazhaozhuang, a busy and small month old, has returned to its former peace. At least half of the men and women in the whole village were missing. Now even the children are going to school. Do you think Dazhaozhuang can be uneasy?
This scene really has the visual feeling of migrant workers entering the city in later generations.
In the imperial palace in the capital.
Heshen collapsed and stood respectfully five steps away from Qianlong.
"You mean Zhao Liang from Songhe Tower?"
"How dare a slave deceive? This thing is indeed Zhao Liang's hand in it, and it is cashmere texture." After seeing Zhao Liang's letter, Heshen not only made a set of underwear to try it on, but also asked someone to find several people who were raising sheep to ask. He did not know how to present it to Qianlong without figuring out all this thing.
"This is indeed a bit tricky."
Cashmere is really a good thing, whoever uses it knows. Qianlong praised Zhao Liang for his words.
However, he was still a little hesitant about Heshen’s memorial.
It is related to Mongolia and has a great relationship, so he still needs to think about it carefully.
Cashmere is expensive, but Zhao Liang spent thousands of taels of silver to make ten pieces of cashmere cloth for three years.
Even though a large part of it is due to manual consumption and trial production, now that I have experience, I will not talk about the former, but many detours in the latter can be omitted. But cashmere will be valuable!
A goat can only produce two or three taels of hairless and clean cashmere..., you can imagine its price.
Once this cashmere cloth becomes famous, the cashmere that was worthless in the past is afraid it will be worth a thousand gold immediately. Where is the most goats in the world?
Mongolia.
Even if the Ministry of Internal Affairs will vigorously participate in it, it will not be possible to completely monopolize all cashmeres, and those smart Shanxi businessmen will not miss this good business opportunity.
If they are managed properly, they can even use this skill to have a certain impact on the silk in Jiangnan.
Among the ranks of high-end textiles in China, it threatens the monopoly position of silk.
As for the Mongolian nobles, they can also take this opportunity to make a fortune..., and if they have money in their hands, they will definitely not save up and spend it. If one is counted as another, they will be snatched out by the merchants in Shanxi and Shaanxi.
If this matter is done, it will inevitably greatly strengthen the economic ties between the grassland and the inner world. As for the extra uncertain factors, whether it will have a certain impact on both inner and outer Mongolia, will it make some Mongolian tribes stronger? Qianlong didn't care at all!
Today's Qing Dynasty is no longer the Qing Dynasty a hundred years ago, and the Mongolians have long been kneeling down to obey.
But among the Mongolian tribes (banners), Yu Qianlong said that from far to near, from close to each other, from relatives to dislike, would be more perfect if most of the cashmere benefits could be fallen into the hands of the Mongolian nobles he liked.
So, he had to think about this matter again.
"You are preparing for this matter first. Didn't Zhao Liang say that goats will change their velvet after spring? Let's give it a try first!"
