Chapter 294 Another batch of imperial merchants.
Qin Lou had just closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep when he heard a noise outside the door.
"I'm coming!"
"They're coming this way!"
"Quick!"
What's coming?
Who is coming here?
What are they talking about?
Qin Lou opened his eyes, threw back the quilt, got out of bed, and opened the door.
I saw many people standing by the windows in the corridor, looking down from the windows.
He frowned, walked over curiously and looked down.
When I saw this, I was stunned.
this........
Is this someone from the palace? ?
I happened to be living in the Qin Building, and several merchants in the next room also heard the noise and opened the door to see.
Seeing Qin Lou standing by the window, she walked towards him.
"What's going on? What are you standing here looking at?"
Before Qin Lou could speak, they looked in the direction Qin Lou was looking.
He was immediately stunned.
The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened!
I saw a few palace servants walking down the street, and behind them were the people who were watching the excitement.
The group of people came in a huge procession.
this...........
Is this someone from the palace??!
It seems to be heading in this direction?
Several merchants were completely stunned.
I thought of what I had heard before, about the scene when several people from Jiangxiang were named imperial merchants.
It seems to be the case.
The palace maid came to the door and read the imperial edict.
Is it...are these palace servants also coming towards them?
Your Majesty, are you going to confer the title of Imperial Merchants on them?
The thought of this possibility.
Several merchants were excited.
The palace maid walked to the door of an inn and stopped.
He looked up at the plaque on the inn, and after confirming that he was in the right place, he was about to walk in.
Then a man who looked like a shopkeeper came out and bowed.
"Sir, which gentleman are you looking for?"
"I am the innkeeper of this inn. I can help you to call for him."
The people who were crowded around the windows upstairs watching couldn't help but stop talking.
Stretch your neck and listen with your ears perked up.
I’m afraid of missing a word.
The palace maid nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, shopkeeper."
"Please help us call Qin Lou and the other merchants with him."
"okay!"
"Please wait a moment, I will go and call for you!"
The shopkeeper responded and hurried into the inn.
Qin Lou and several merchants upstairs also heard what the palace servants said.
Before the shopkeeper came up, they had already run down quickly.
Qin Lou and several merchants happened to run into the shopkeeper on the stairs.
The shopkeeper saw that it was them and spoke quickly.
"Ouch! Merchant Qin? Quick! Come with me!"
"At the door, palace servants, someone from the palace wants to see you!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Qin Lou spoke very quickly.
Then he quickly walked down the stairs and headed towards the entrance of the inn.
The shopkeeper and several merchants quickly followed Qin Lou towards the entrance of the inn.
Other people who were watching the fun also gathered around.
Qin Lou and several merchants immediately saluted to the palace ladies as they walked out of the inn.
"I met my father-in-law."
Palace maid, "No need to be so polite, I came here today because I have something important to do."
After saying this, he opened the edict in his hand.
The onlookers and the common people all saluted.
The palace maid read the imperial edict.
To summarize simply, the contents of the edict named the merchants of Qinlou and two other counties as imperial merchants.
After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, Qin Lou and others were stunned for a moment.
Then he reacted.
Then comes ecstasy.
Very good!
They were actually named imperial merchants!
Now, they also have the protection of His Majesty.
There is also a royal merchant, a merchant with this important identity!
Once they return to the county, those wealthy and powerful families will never dare to bully them again!
When the people who were watching heard the contents of the imperial edict, they were stunned at first.
Then it felt normal again.
His expression is quite calm.
After all, they had seen with their own eyes before that several other merchants were named imperial merchants by His Majesty.
If you see something again, it won't seem strange anymore.
But they were still a little curious.
I wonder if these businesses have plaques this time?
They remembered that the merchants last time all had plaques.
The palace maid handed the imperial edict to Qin Lou.
Qin Lou took it with both hands.
The palace maid finished her work and was about to leave when she was grabbed by Qin Lou.
Ok?
He looked back.
Just wanted him to let go.
I felt a weight in my palm.
He took a quick glance.
Hey.
Another money bag.
It looks quite big.
It's quite heavy when you hold it.
Qin Lou smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law. Please have some tea."
"You're welcome."
The palace maid put her hand into her sleeve without leaving a trace and withdrew her hand.
He turned around and left with his men.
After watching the palace maids leave, Qin Lou lowered his head to look at the imperial edict in his hand.
Still feels like I'm dreaming.
I went to the palace yesterday and His Majesty didn't say anything.
When he left the palace, he was not given any reward.
He thought that was it.
Unexpectedly...
I didn't expect there would be such a surprise?!
It turned out that His Majesty asked them yesterday about the inn where they were staying.
It was to ask the palace maid to deliver the imperial edict to the inn.
They wrongly accused Your Majesty yesterday.
They are resentful and feel guilty towards Your Majesty.
They are guilty.
Several merchants standing next to Qin Lou had the same idea as Qin Lou.
His face showed both happiness and guilt.
I feel that they shouldn't have done that yesterday.
Amid the bustle of the crowd, Qin Lou and several merchants returned to the house with the imperial edict.
Several servants in the crowd who were trying to gather information quietly slipped back to report the news.
A mansion.
"Master! Master! Something terrible has happened!"
A servant shouted loudly and ran inside.
Song An, who was sitting in the hall, heard these words and felt that the servant who was replaced this time could finally speak human language.
But when she listened carefully to the meaning of his words, her face suddenly turned dark again.
"What's going on? Is there something serious going on?"
"Master...Master!"
The servant came in breathlessly, "Master, those merchants from outside have been sealed... sealed."
what?
Song An: "What's crazy?"
"Seal, seal the imperial merchant!"
The attendant swallowed his saliva and said, "Those merchants have been named imperial merchants by His Majesty."
what? !
Was he named the Imperial Merchant? ?
Those foreign merchants were named imperial merchants again? ?
Song An stood up suddenly!
"Why is he crowned as an imperial merchant again?"
"Is the news true?!"
Servant: "My lord, it's true!"
"Then everyone in the palace went directly to the inn to read the imperial edict!"
"There's no mistake about it!"
"So many people were watching, seeing it with their own eyes and hearing it with their own ears."
Hearing this, Song An staggered.
Fell into a chair.
He was named imperial merchant again.
Why does Your Majesty reward those merchants but not them?
Other aristocratic families in Xianyang also received the news.
I don’t know how many teacups and porcelain dishes were broken.
But this is an imperial edict issued by His Majesty after all, and they can do nothing about it even if they are dissatisfied.
