Chapter 60 This boy has a lot of thoughts, he must not...

"This thing sounds strange. Let's build another table later and you can teach us."

Yang Wenyuan has no objection.

Although he felt a little strange in his heart as to why the emperor knew such a professional term as "Ma Yi Zhuo" but did not understand how to play mahjong and had to be taught himself, since the emperor had spoken, Yang Wenyuan could not refuse and agreed immediately.

But when he turned around, Yang Wenyuan secretly glanced and saw that there seemed to be a strange look on the queen's face, and the concubines behind her also had strange expressions.

Before Yang Wenyuan had time to think about it, Xiao Qin and the Gu family walked in.

It has to be said that Xiao Qin, who came from the Qin family of Dongchang Marquis's mansion, was indeed good-looking and had the charm of a mature woman. Otherwise, even if Gu Yankai felt guilty towards Da Qin, he would not have endured the visual discomfort and married Xiao Qin.

Beauty alone is not enough, Xiao Qin's methods are also very sophisticated.

Xiao Qinshi has always had a good reputation among the noble ladies in Bianjing.

Gentle, respectful, virtuous and virtuous are all beautiful adjectives that describe her. She also often provides care for orphans and young children.

Her good reputation spread throughout Bianjing.

Xiao Qin’s internal governance is also well received as it is widely praised externally.

Inside the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, Xiao Qin also suppressed the fourth and fifth rooms who had stayed in the mansion and had not moved out, and her methods were very powerful.

Speaking of the fourth and fifth rooms in Ningyuan Marquis’ Mansion.

After the older generation of the Gu family passed away.

Even though they had divided the property, they did not move out of the mansion, but continued to live in Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion.

And all the food, clothing and other expenses were provided by the household supplies in the mansion.

The accounts of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion are in disarray, and they bear most of the responsibility.

It was precisely because of the examples of the fourth and fifth rooms of the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion that Yang Yuqing moved out of the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion early in order to avoid rumors that he was bullying his nephew.

In fact, a large part of the actions of the fourth and fifth houses of the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion were due to the connivance of the current Ningyuan Marquis, Gu Yankai.

Gu Yankai's second and third brothers died at a young age for their families, but neither of them left any descendants.

So Gu Yankai felt guilty and was very kind to his fourth and fifth brothers.

Even after their parents passed away, the two brothers continued to stay in the marquis's mansion. He still did not let the two brothers move out, and even allowed them to use the food and supplies in the mansion to support their own family.

He might even be aware that his nephews from the fourth and fifth rooms often used Gu Tingye's name to drink and have fun, but he still blamed it all on Gu Tingye.

Just like Bai's marriage into the Marquis's Mansion was a thorn in Gu Yan's heart.

Being lenient to the fourth and fifth rooms was a kind of compensation from Gu Yankai to his second and third brothers who died young.

Xiao Qin slowly walked into the hall and bowed.

The emperor first comforted Ningyuan Hou for his hard work in guarding the border, then the queen said some personal words, and then asked Xiao Qin to sit beside him.

Then other noble ladies and ladies of honor came in one by one to pay their respects, but most of them were simply encouraged and rewarded with some gifts before being allowed to leave.

By the time the last noble official and his wife had paid their New Year's greetings, the emperor's smile had become frozen.

At this time, the emperor suddenly asked Xiao Qinshi: "Can you play mahjong?"

Xiao Qin was the last person to arrive and had no idea of ​​the emperor's intention in asking this question.

Therefore, facing this sudden and confusing sentence, Xiao Qin's mind worked very fast, but she still couldn't guess it. She could only adhere to the doctrine of the mean and bowed and said:

"To reply to your majesty, I know a thing or two."

“That means you are not proficient.”

The emperor immediately showed a satisfied smile. "Then you just watch from the side."

After hearing this, Xiao Qin's face froze. She understood very well that she had missed a good opportunity.

Speaking of mahjong, this is a new game invented by Yang Wenyuan that has become popular among the noble ladies in recent days. Naturally, Xiao Qinshi knows how to play it.

And the technology is very advanced.

His perfect fighting skills were not acquired in vain, and they were equally useful on the mahjong table. After making sure that Xiao Qinshi was excluded, the emperor asked the eunuchs and palace maids to bring the tables and mahjong over, and then began to call people to the table.

The familiar look made it hard for Yang Wenyuan to believe that the emperor had just said that he could not play mahjong.

The Duchess of England directly stated that she would not attend.

The emperor tried to persuade her a few times, but the Duchess of England refused to sit at the table.

Finally, after much persuasion, the four people playing mahjong decided to:
The Emperor, Princess Pingning, Princess Yong and Princess Yan.

As for Yang Wenyuan, the emperor had already given the order, asking him to teach them how to play cards.

After a while, two sets of exquisitely shaped ivory mahjong were brought up.

Yang Wenyuan couldn't help but marvel at the carving skills, worthy of being a royal product.

wrong……

Yang Wenyuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did you get this mahjong?"

I haven’t received the copyright fee yet!

When mahjong became popular in Bian Jing, Yang Wenyuan also started a mahjong business, welcoming all the wealthy and powerful families to order custom mahjong sets for them.

Of course, there was not enough extra ivory.

If you really want to customize ivory mahjong, you can also buy the ivory yourself and have them make it at your door, but the price must not be small.

The nobles were embarrassed to compete with the Yang family for this business, and those from lower social classes did not dare to do this business for the time being.

Therefore, this exclusive mahjong business made Yang Wenyuan a lot of money during this period.

Looking at the finely crafted mahjong on the table in front of him, Yang Wenyuan couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart.

Can the royal family be so unreasonable?
My copyright fees!

Yang Wenyuan only hoped that this was just something Royal did for fun and that it had no intention of impacting his high-end custom-made market, otherwise he would definitely not be able to snatch this business from Royal.

but……

Yang Wenyuan then had another idea in his mind: Is there any potential for the royal collaboration?
With the royal collaboration, we can also use hunger marketing.

I, Yang Wenyuan, dare to sell a piece of ivory for the price of a gold ingot!

But that’s another story.

Yang Wenyuan’s top priority was to keep the emperor company.

Just like before, whenever it was the turn of a player to play a card, Yang Wenyuan would hang behind that player and do his job conscientiously.

But after playing a few rounds and observing, Yang Wenyuan found that everyone at the table obviously knew how to play mahjong, so why did he need to teach him?

Especially the emperor, he always likes to hold other people's cards in his hand and not play them.

This boy has a lot on his mind, he must not...

Oh, you are the emperor, that's okay.

When Yang Wenyuan was thinking about the emperor's intention, he suddenly heard the emperor say:
"Okay, stop jumping up and down. I thought it was interesting at first, but now it's boring. Go find a stool and sit down. Be quiet."

Yang Wenyuan paused immediately.

After pondering for a moment, he hurried to the side, moved a small stool, and sat obediently behind the emperor, as quiet as a little baby.

When Yang Wenyuan started to move the chair, the emperor stared at his cards and was reluctant to play.

After Yang Wenyuan moved a chair and sat down behind him, he smiled and threw away the card in his hand that he was unsure about.

"Eighty thousand!"

　Thanks to Yueyue for the 100 reward!
