Chapter 664 Change 2


    ??The business of the Gu family''s house is relatively stable, because many of Ye Qianning''s treasures were collected at once, and now they are all in the town store.


    Many officials and their family members would come to the palace to celebrate their birthdays and give gifts.


    As the saying goes, if it doesn’t open for three years, it will take three years to open. This is what antique stores are talking about.


    ??Gu Shuo either stayed at the border or in Nanyuan this year. He spent most of the year studying the topographic map and practical considerations of Nanyuan.


    Emperor Beili observed Nanyuan for more than half a year, and also observed Gu Shuo for more than half a year, and asked people to go to Nanyuan to understand the situation. Nanyuan was poorer than imagined, and he didn''t know where they could cooperate.


    ??Moreover, the price Gu Shuo originally offered was also very high. For half a year, Emperor Beili had not signed a cooperation contract with Nanyuan. Emperor Nanyuan could not wait any longer.


    ?Prince Yu was sent to find Gu Shuo in person and sign a contract. The price was reduced by more than half from the original price.


    The price is still two copper plates higher than the current price of aquatic products in Nanyuan, which is eight copper plates per pound.


    Li Mu, who was in charge of the imperial merchants, got the news and let out words to wait and see that the Gu family went bankrupt. Most of Nanyuan Aquatic Products could not be sold at the price of six copper coins per pound.


    ??Gu Shuo signed a contract for ten years at once, and he also paid eight copper coins. Now that the Gu family''s business is in tatters, where will he get the money to buy Nanyuan''s aquatic products?


    Emperor Beili had a good grasp of Nanyuan''s market situation and knew that Gu Shuo would not make any splash, so he stopped being stared at.


    —


    The Zhan family has been keeping a low profile this year. Zhan Chi has often been bored in the house this year. From the outside, it seems that he is still not doing his job properly as before, but he is rarely seen in Kyoto City.


    ?Concubine Zhan gave birth to a little princess to the emperor four months ago. The emperor named her Lanyu, Huizhilanxin, Golden Branches and Jade Leaves, Mulberry Lanyu.


    The word Υ means Nian Ning.


    When Emperor Beili knew that Concubine Zhan had been given to the little princess, he read the word Ning and became furious.


    From that day on, Emperor Beili never went to the palace where Concubine Zhan was staying, nor did he ever see the little princess again. Mrs. Zhan went to the palace many times to persuade her daughter not to anger the emperor. Concubine Zhan had already lost her temper. She wished that Emperor Beili would never set foot in her residence again.


    Out of sight and out of mind, she takes care of her daughter with peace of mind and educates her well, which is much better than those vain honors and favors.


    When a favored princess is sent to the barbarians, she will not show any mercy at all. Honor and favor are more important than power.


    —


    ?Chienjia built a house at the border of Sunset Gorge. Sunset Gorge is not located in Shikoku and is considered an extremely secluded small canyon.


    Because it is the border, the transportation of materials is a bit slow, as if it takes a year to build.


    ??Qian Yunting, the boss of the Qian family, still followed the old path when he arrived at the border, becoming a bodyguard.


    ?Being a border **** is dangerous, but you can make a lot of money. You often come and go with barbarians on the western border.


    Qian Fanji disappeared for more than half a year, and now he has two more mineral veins in his hands. Within a year, he has monopolized Beili''s mineral resources.


    In winter, the coal sold to Beili Huangshang was three times higher than in previous years, while the coal sold to Nanyuan was more than half lower than in previous years. Such pricing left everyone scratching their heads.


    Beili has a large population. Coal is a big business, and you can make a lot of money in a year. Now that the price has increased, let alone making money, you will probably lose a lot of money.


    When Emperor Beili heard the news, he was very angry. Minerals are different from merchants. It is not easy to get minerals in your hands. Coal is a necessary item in winter.


    Three times the price, you have to pay for it, and there is no possibility of making a profit from it.
