Zhao Hao was speechless for a moment, and was touched: "I was wondering why I hadn't seen her these few days, it turns out she went to pick up her aunt!"
Jiang Yiren said softly: "Okay, come in and talk!"
The two of them walked in, and Xiao Tao immediately served them tea. Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask, "Did Auntie just arrive?"
Jiang Yiren said, "I arrived at noon, had lunch with His Majesty, and talked for a while."
"Later, the two sisters wanted to talk about serious matters, and their aunt came back."
Zhao Hao nodded: "It's just a crowning ceremony, but it made my aunt come back specially..."
"Aunt, then don't go back yet. Wait for me and His Highness to get engaged in the Imperial Capital."
This matter is already a done deal, so there is nothing wrong with him saying this.
Jiang Yiren smiled and said, "I'm afraid that even if aunt wants to go back, Yongning won't agree."
The two were chatting when Princess Yongning walked in from outside.
"Aunt, what did you talk to him about?"
Hearing the voice, both of them turned their heads and looked at Princess Yongning.
Jiang Yiren smiled and said, "What else can I say? You look like a bandit who robs houses."
Zhao Hao stood up and said, "Why didn't you inform me in advance when you went to pick up my aunt? I haven't seen her for a few days and I thought something happened!"
Seeing his serious expression, Princess Yongning snorted, "Isn't this a surprise for you?"
Zhao Hao’s eyes widened when he heard that.
This...
Why does it sound so strange!
You brought your aunt back, but you said it was a surprise for me...
Is this reasonable?
I secretly glanced at Jiang Yiren, who was drinking tea from a cup.
Zhao Hao had no choice but to nod and agree: "It is indeed a surprise. I never thought that my aunt would come back."
Princess Yongning chuckled and said, "I knew you would be happy!"
After a pause, she couldn't help but reach out to Zhao Hao and said, "By the way, where is the thing you promised to give me?"
Zhao Hao said softly, "Because I didn't know you went to your aunt's place, I put the things in His Majesty's Pepper Room."
"Is that so?"
"My sister didn't say anything just now!"
"Xiao Tao, go to His Majesty and get my things back."
Xiaotao hurriedly took the order.
Jiang Yiren, who was standing by, asked, "Is this the porcelain invented by Hao'er that you told your aunt about on the way?"
Princess Yongning nodded and smiled, "Yes, auntie, you will be able to see it with your own eyes in a moment. I definitely did not lie to you!"
"That porcelain is truly a rare treasure, so beautiful!"
As she said that, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Hao and said, "It is also your contribution that we were able to invite my aunt back this time. I told my aunt that the porcelain you invented is a rare treasure that no one has ever seen."
"My aunt was also very curious, so she was willing to come back to Beijing with me reluctantly."
Jiang Yiren smiled and said, "Yes, this girl praised the porcelain to the skies, saying it was a treasure that had never existed in the world."
"Auntie also wants to see what the porcelain you made looks like, Hao'er."
Princess Yongning said, "Aunt, you will be able to see it soon."
Zhao Hao whispered at the side: "In fact, it was just made and no one has ever seen it, so it seems very precious."
"In fact, the production of this kind of porcelain is not much different from that of earthenware, and they have many similarities."
“It’s just more sophisticated.”
“It is also made of clay and fired in a kiln.”
"Your Majesty has ordered me to take full charge of the establishment of a porcelain workshop. Once the workshop is built, a large amount of porcelain will be produced."
"As time goes by, people see more and more of them, and even most of them are replaced by porcelain instead of wood and earthenware, so they don't seem so precious anymore."
"Of course, if it is a truly unique piece, it will be priceless no matter how old it is."
Jiang Yiren said softly: "After listening to Hao'er's words, Auntie became even more curious about the porcelain."
The three of them waited for less than a quarter of an hour before Xiaotao finally came back carrying the wooden box.
Princess Yongning quickly opened the wooden box and carefully took out the vase inside.
“Wow, so beautiful!”
The first thing she saw was the light yellow, simple and elegant bottle, which immediately caught her attention.
Compared with the green porcelain she saw last time, this light yellow vase was more exquisite and more irresistible.
Jiang Yiren stood up from the chair and walked over.
Before she got close, she stopped abruptly, and then her pair of beautiful, cold and calm eyes fell directly on the vase on the table.
“Is this…is this porcelain?”
Even though she was calm, she couldn't help but open up all the pores on her body at this moment.
Because the porcelain vase in front of me is so beautiful that it is beyond words.
It is like a peerless jade, bright and beautiful.
Princess Yongning said quickly, "Aunt, this is porcelain. I said it is a rare treasure, and it is not an exaggeration!"
Jiang Yiren walked closer, took a deep breath and said, "It's true that I'm not exaggerating. This artifact is extraordinary and can be called a rare treasure!"
Princess Yongning said, "Aunt, this porcelain can also be made into tea sets, wine sets, and even brush washers."
"Zhao Hao said that in the future it can completely replace gold, silver, bronze, iron, as well as wooden and earthenware."
Zhao Hao came over and said, "That will take a long time. It's definitely not something that can be replaced in a short period of time."
"Especially ordinary civilian families, they probably can't afford it."
"Moreover, once this item is released, the price will remain high because the quantity is so small."
Princess Yongning said: "That's normal. Scarcity makes things valuable. With this porcelain, we won't have to worry about money anymore."
"By the way, my sister just told me that you will be in charge of the porcelain workshop. When do you plan to start?"
Zhao Hao said softly: "The plan has been made. We just need to wait for the weather to get warmer and then we can start."
Princess Yongning said, "My sister said that a lot of money has been invested. Although the court cannot take it out, it is already borrowing money."
Zhao Hao's eyes lit up and he said, "This is a good idea. It shouldn't be difficult to borrow money in the name of the court."
In fact, according to his idea, the imperial court might exchange the distribution rights of dry wine sales with the aristocratic families.
This is also a way.
However, since Her Majesty did not do so, it was probably because she did not want one or several families to occupy too much of the market share.
It is also a good idea to directly find a money house to dismantle the debt in the name of the court and pay more interest.
It also saves time and effort.
"It seems that I won't have much time to rest for a few days. I have to start preparing things right away."
Princess Yongning said, "On my side, the expansion of the wine workshop is also being accelerated. I believe it will be almost completed within another month."
"As for sales, we need to think carefully about how to distribute them. Do you have any ideas?"
