Chapter 618 Schadenfreude
Hearing what Li Jiaoniang said, Mrs. Sang became more and more curious, "Huh? Make a fortune? Will this little seedling bear delicious fruit?"

Tian Niangzi smiled and said, "This fruit is not edible."

Lady Sang asked again, "The flowers that bloom are beautiful? Prettier than peonies?"

How much money can you make by selling flowers?Mrs. Sang couldn't understand.

Lady Tian laughed out loud.

Mrs. Sang pursed her lips, "Okay, you are amazing. Did you laugh at me after you have been to Governor Yue?"

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Okay, stop arguing, it's nothing special, the fruit of this kind of seedling is similar to the fruit of kapok, and white cotton wool will grow inside."

"..."

"Kapok has less lint, but this fruit has a lot of lint and is suitable for planting. If it is planted on a large scale, we will harvest a lot of lint in the future. Do you think we will make a fortune?"

"Oh, the fruit of this seedling will grow cotton wool?" Mrs. Sang was curious.

"Yes, and it's warmer than kapok cotton." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

Luo Cheng came over, "Jiao Niang."

Li Jiaoniang turned around and said with a smile, "Luo Cheng, come and see my cotton seedlings."

Luo Cheng walked over to have a look and nodded, "It's been transported all the way here, and it hasn't been crushed at all. It's really rare."

Li Jiaoniang greeted everyone, "It's enough to place one by one against the corner of the wall." She patted her sleeves, pulled Luo Cheng aside, and asked, "Are those horses settled?"

Luo Cheng said, "It's settled. With Ximen Fei personally watching, there shouldn't be any problem."

Li Jiaoniang said, "Ximen Fei is very careful, Luo Cheng, you can rest assured."

"It's just..." Luo Cheng frowned, "I saw Cong'er just now, and he said that the government has added test questions, and there is also an essay test."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Didn't you teach him for so long? He is smart and eager to learn, so he will pass the exam. Don't worry."

Luo Cheng thought about it, and worried that there was nothing to do. The competition will start tomorrow morning.

……

Mu family.

After Mu Xuan sent Li Peiyu to the palace, he immediately gained Gaozong's attention.

Originally, he failed the exam and was dismissed from the Hanlin Academy. However, after Gao Zong personally interrogated him yesterday, he returned to the Imperial Academy.

Not only that, the salary is not low, the rank is not lowered, and the errands are much easier.

Moreover, the new job is still a fat job.

Mu Xuan's current position is responsible for the printing, sorting and distribution of public books.

With this position, you can take on private jobs and earn extra money for private book printing.

Mu Xuan is very satisfied with his current position.

Printing books privately is huge profits.

He got a new errand this morning, and in the afternoon, he immediately contacted several big booksellers in the city and negotiated the price of the book with them.

Ancient books are expensive.

A book of twenty pamphlets costs almost four pennies.

He gets [-]% and the other party [-]%. If [-] copies are printed, he can get [-] guan.After deducting costs and others, the net income is about [-] Guan.

Simply great money.

Rich and confident.

Mu Xuan walked a little lighter in Mu's house.

Seeing him, his eldest brother and second brother asked curiously, "Third brother, has something good happened to you recently? Have you been complacent all day long?"

How could Mu Xuan tell them that he found an idea to make a fortune?

He waved his hand and said, "Where is it? I just practiced riding and archery with King Enping for half a year. The officials praised me for my hard work and made me return to my post. What's the good thing?"

"Official reinstatement? When did it happen?" Mu Dalang asked in surprise.

Mu Xuan smiled lightly, "That's right, in the morning, someone from the Imperial Academy came and asked me to go back and continue my errand. Oh, no, I changed my job and got a flat job. It's much more leisurely than the previous errand. I guess, no future, right?"

Mu Dalang and Mu Erlang looked at each other, both showing surprise.

Mu Lao San was reinstated so soon?
What kind of luck did he have?
"Congratulations, third child." Mu's second child cupped his hands yin and yang.

Ping Tiao is only the sixth grade, nothing special.

Mu Dalang smiled and said, "I don't know what the third brother's new position is?"

Mu Xuan smiled modestly, "A small position in charge of printing books is not worth mentioning, not worth getting."

He waved his hand with a very ashamed and embarrassed expression.

Although he had this expression, it surprised the Mu family boss and second child together.

The errand of the Imperial Academy in charge of printing books is not a small errand, but a fat one!

When the year is poor, it is easy to earn tens of thousands of dollars.

The eldest and second child of the Mu family immediately became jealous of Mu Xuan.

"Mu Lao San, don't be humble, you are a fat job!" Mu Lao Er let out a haha.

Boss Mu also said, "Third brother, I found a job to get rich, so you should treat me to dinner."

Mu Xuan was highly praised, "It's easy to say."

The three brothers were talking, when a servant came rushing over, "Three young masters, the old lady asks you to go to the study immediately."

The three looked at each other, and asked the servant doubtfully, "Why did the old man tell us?"

"I don't know, but looking at the old man's expression, he seems very unhappy." The servant replied.

The boss and the second child of the Mu family looked at me and I looked at you, and said to themselves that they have been very good recently and have not been out of the house for two days, so it must not be their business.

But Mu Xuan has been very busy recently, and it may be his business to run in and out.

There was some gloating in the hearts of the two of them.

"Let's go, let's go see Grandpa." Mu Jiadalang said.

"Hurry up, Grandpa is annoying waiting for people." Mu Jia Erlang also said.

In Mu Xuan's heart, he was happy.

He has regained the errand and has not reported it to his family. It must be that the old man wants to praise him and ask others to learn from him.

Isn't that right, the two wastes who walked in front were just born a few years earlier than him, and took advantage of their old age to occupy the family's resources.

He is the youngest, because the original owner is a half-fool and has been disliked by his family, but now he is the modern him, he will definitely defeat these two wastes, and he will inherit the Mu family's property!

"That's right, let's go faster. Grandpa is busy with business, so he doesn't have time to wait for us." Mu Xuan smiled slightly, brushed off his sleeves, and strode forward.

The eldest of the Mu family and the second eldest of the Mu family looked at each other and smiled ironically.

The three brothers came to Master Mu's study room, bowed down in a respectful manner, "Grandpa, are you looking for your grandson?"

Mu Xuan had always stood at the back before, but this time, he stood at the front.

Because of his current status and ability, he surpassed the two wastes behind him.

He tried his best to pretend to be calm, waiting for the old man to praise him.

Unexpectedly, Master Mu snorted heavily, and said angrily, "Mu Xuan, how do you do things?"

I used to call him Sanlang, but this time I called him by his name directly.

And it was full of anger, as if he wanted to beat Mu Xuan up.

Mu Xuan took a deep breath, the old man is crazy, isn't he?
Scolded him right off the bat?
"Grandpa, what's the matter? Grandson doesn't know." Mu Xuan hurriedly put away the smug expression on his face, and asked anxiously.

Mu Jia Dalang and Erlang standing behind him looked at each other and laughed ironically.

Look, it's bad luck to be too proud, isn't it?
Ha ha.

The two of them retreated a few steps away, watching the joke in a leisurely manner.

"What's the matter? Humph!" Old Master Mu snorted coldly, "Let me ask you, who is the person you arranged to go to Chapu'an County King's Horse?"

Mu Xuan took a breath, did things go wrong in this respect? "Yes...he's from Bing Ma Si."

"Still sophistry?" Old Master Mu said angrily, "Where did the 21 people in the family go?"

Mu Xuan said calmly, "Grandson sent them to buy paper."

Mr. Mu narrowed his eyes, "Paper? What paper to buy?"

"Grandson received a notice from the Imperial Academy this morning, and has been transferred back to the Imperial Academy. Moreover, this time's errand is not editing, but in charge of publishing. This errand can take on private work. Several booksellers have found Suner. After negotiating two deals, each gave a deposit of [-] guan. So grandson sent servants to buy paper for printing books." Mu Xuan said in a lie.

In fact, 21 servants in the mansion were sent by him to check Zhao Cong's horses.

His grandfather's idea was to borrow directly from Bingmasi.

But the people in Bingmasi borrowed it as they said?If something goes wrong in the future, Bing Ma Si can't settle accounts with him?
It's better to send the servants at home directly, anyway, it's just delaying time.

After hearing what Mu Xuan said, Mr. Mu's anger subsided a little.

"If that's the case, it's fine, but there's one thing I want to remind you to pay attention to." Mr. Mu said again.
