Chapter 440: secretly meet
Chapter 440 Secret meeting
Ye Anlan used her actual actions to prove that she is a person who is not inferior to Li Jing in talent and ability at all, and can definitely help Li Jing share half of his heavy responsibilities.
The most important thing is that she is still in love with Li Jing, and can help Li Jing to recuperate his body, so that he is more likely to live a long and healthy life, which is very important for Li Jing's grandmother and mother. Saying is the most important thing.
Ye Anlan has always wondered why Li Jing's grandmother and mother would agree that Li Jing would transfer all of his own private property to her as a dowry gift. The reason is actually very simple.
Firstly, they believed in Ye Anlan's character, and privately felt that she would not disappoint Li Jing's deep friendship; secondly, they also hoped to impress Ye Anlan with the sincerity of the Li family, so that she would be more concerned about Li Jing's health and longevity. Do your best.
Time passed slowly into the spring of the second year in the seemingly endless busy and step-by-step Six Rites process.
At this time, Ye Anlan had already laid the foundation for her medical book compilation. She sorted out the collected prescriptions and the medical knowledge in her own mind and handed them over to Ye Wei to help classify, arrange, proofread, and print.
As for Ye Anlan, she only needs to check the manuscript twice carefully after proofreading the manuscript and printing the sample booklet.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Ye Anlan can relax.
Mrs. Li, who has been staring at Ye Anlan whether she is busy or not, immediately came to the British government to "arrest" Ye Anlan in person after learning that she had handed over the task of compiling medical books to Ye Wei.
Half of the six ceremonies have been completed, and there is only the last part of welcoming the bride. Li Shi feels that if Ye Anlan is still the shopkeeper, she, as a mother, will really have no face to see the Li family again.
She pulled Ye Anlan over, forced her to look at the dowry list, and stared at her trying on the wedding dress and jewelry. An Lan prepared gifts for her mother-in-law's family and rewards for the servants in Li Jing's yard.
After all the trivial matters were dealt with, Ye Anlan seized the opportunity and slipped away.
She secretly met with Li Jing, held her in her hand all the time, and gave Li Jing the advanced dyeing technology that she didn't find a suitable opportunity to take out for money.
This is her return gift to Li Jing, in order to thank him for giving all of his private property to herself as a dowry gift.
Li Jing never expected that Ye Anlan would secretly meet him before marriage, not for a court event, but to give him a little hen that would lay golden eggs.
He was emotional, but he didn't accept the thin stack of papers immediately, he said to Ye Anlan: "Mother and grandmother gave me two more shops, I don't need money, you should keep these for yourself to start a workshop Bar."
Li Jing knew that Ye Anlan still had such an ambitious and expensive plan of "building roads, building bridges, building wharfs, building seagoing ships, and forming camel caravans".
In order to realize this grand plan and great wish, which in the eyes of others is simply a dream, Ye Anlan needs a huge amount of money that ordinary people will never see in a lifetime.
Li Jing once estimated for her when she was fine, and Ye Anlan had to gather at least 10 million taels of silver in order to realize the contents of the plan she had written in the early years.
What is the concept of ten million taels? In the years when the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty was at its peak in the previous dynasty, the total tax revenue of the country in one year was converted into silver taels, and its value was only between 12 million and 18 million.
If it is replaced by Daqi, which is now waiting to be built and has a sparse population, the state will have to collect a tax of 10 million taels for at least two years.
With such a large amount of money, Li Jing felt that only Ye Anlan, who was always able to come up with new things, could hope to get it together within three to five years.
If it were someone else, I’m afraid they would have to find ways to get the wealthy businessmen to donate, and then go to the treasury for the meager silver taels.
What he didn't know was that Ye Anlan really had the idea of making rich businessmen happy to donate.
If she handed over the dyeing technology to Li Jing, she would only be able to earn money from rich and noble families through fresh things such as off-season dishes, pastries, and toys.
It is far less profitable to do business with all the people in the world than simply grabbing the wool of the rich and the noble.
So where should the missing part come from? Of course, the rich and the rich
She roughly told Li Jing about her plan to squeeze wool, "...don't worry now? I have plenty of ways to make money."
Li Jing couldn't help laughing, because the way she blinked slyly on her face gradually turned red at the base of her ears.
Under Ye Anlan's repeated requests, Li Jing accepted the stack of dyeing prescriptions she gave her.
The two met to have a meal of Lu cuisine together, and after eating, Li Jing sent Ye Anlan back to the British government.
The British residence is next door to the Anguo residence. When bestowing these two residences, Xie Yuan considered that Li Jing and Ye Anlan would get married in the future.
Given their residences in the same place, it will undoubtedly be more convenient for Ye Anlan to travel between the two residences in the future.
The two parted in front of one of the side doors of the British mansion. Li Jing took people back to the Anguo mansion next door, while Ye Anlan went back to the study and continued to work hard in the afterglow of the setting sun.
She lit two oil lamps, picked up a pen and began to write about the new gadgets she still remembered. In addition to low-cost simple greenhouses, novel and delicious pastries, and various children's toys, Ye Anlan also listed many things that can improve the convenience of people's lives in the plan.
Such as toilet paper, such as soap, such as the thread design of the bottle mouth and cap, such as transmission gears, and various glass products.
In fact, these things can also be used to make money, but rather than using them to grab the wool of rich and powerful families, Ye Anlan still prefers to spread them to thousands of households, so that ordinary people can enjoy some of the conveniences of modern society.
Well, this is the main reason, and there is another secondary reason. After all, there are a lot of rich and noble families in Daqi. She has used off-season vegetables, pastries, and toys to get her wool, and there is no need to continue with the rest. Take the high end route.
But when the business routes are opened up and Daqi establishes trade relations with neighboring countries, she doesn't mind using these new gadgets to earn a fortune from foreign friends
Things were complicated, even with the help of many people, Ye Anlan still couldn't complete all the preparations before the big wedding.
Fortunately, Li Jing has always supported her 100%, even if she is married, she can still continue to do what she wants to do.
At this time, Ye Anlan didn't know that when she married someone, she would even throw her own Duke's mansion in the care of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li_(:з」∠)_
Of course, this is something for another time.
At this time, Ye Anlan was still surrounded by one thing after another, big or small, and couldn't find a suitable person to take care of the housework.
