Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 24

[Chapter 24: Chess Pieces]

night is hazy.

Yancheng, which had been noisy all day, fell into silence and darkness.

Only the singing house and dancing pavilion by the Jinlin Pool are still brightly lit.

Jiaofang Division.

The affiliated institution of the Yanjun government office was originally a place for entertaining officials.

At this time, it is located in the box on the fourth floor.

However, Zhang Qian and Zhang Kang violated the rules and drank and had fun with more than a dozen heads of wealthy families who were dependent on the Zhang family.

When the wine was in full swing, a wealthy family said: “Brother Zhang, the king of Yan is getting more and more complicated now.”

Another wealthy family echoed: “That’s right, a technique of making ice has cheated us so much money, and now it’s not easy. He has come up with a technique of brewing wine, which can make more money than making ice, so what can I do if the Palace of King Yan sits all day long?”

Zhang Qian picked the chin of the singer beside him, with a relaxed expression.

After King Yan reported the price of the wine, he was not worried anymore.

Not many people in Yan County can afford the price of fifteen taels.

It will not affect his Zhang family’s brewing business.

However, if this kind of wine is shipped to the south of the Yangtze River, it can make a lot of money.

Therefore, he is still very greedy for this wine making technique.

“Brother Zhang, what are you talking about? After Chang Wei of King Yan’s Mansion took over the county soldiers, he dismissed several children from our Huang family and replaced them with people from the Dong family, the Lu family and the Yang family.” Huang Yu Said.

His family’s interests were violated, and he secretly hated the Yan Palace.

Du Ming sighed, “It’s the same with our Du family. Now the Yan Palace is making it clear that they are recruiting Dong, Lu and Yang’s families to deal with us.” The

other wealthy families nodded their heads one after another.

In the past, they were like fish in water in Yan County, but now they have to worry about the Yan Palace, which makes them very uncomfortable.

“Hey, it’s a pity for Qingfeng Village. If King Yan was killed that day, there wouldn’t be so many details.”

A wealthy family said, he didn’t know that the assassination was planned by the Zhang family.

Zhang Qian and Zhang Kang looked at each other.

Someone mentioning this made them angry.

You say a word, I say a word, until you stop talking.

Zhang Qian said slowly, “You hate the King of Yan, but I never hated it, but now that the King of Yan has his own army, and the county soldiers have been captured by the King of Yan because of the assassination, we have already lost in Yan City. After a pause, he said: ”

Even in the countryside, the three families of Dong, Lu and Yang have become our constraints. Even if we raise our troops to rebel, I’m afraid there is no good chance of winning.”

Everyone was silent for a while after hearing this.

Huang Yu said: “Mr. Zhang, you have the most ideas, why don’t you just say a few words.”

Everyone looked at Zhang Kang again.

Of course Zhang Qian is the head of the Zhang family’s brother.

But in the hearts of everyone, Zhang Kang is their backbone.

Because behind Zhang Kang is the Yuan family, the largest family in Yanzhou.

Zhang Kang pondered for a while while holding the wine glass.

Under the current circumstances, they naturally need this group of powerful families who depend on them.

In order to reassure them, he said: “In fact, my brother and I have already made up our minds. We just need to wait until the Beidi people arrive in autumn, and then we need your help.” The

rich people are all good people, and they immediately understood what Zhang Kang meant. .

They laughed one by one.

“Brother Zhang and County Sheriff Zhang are more thoughtful, so nothing will go wrong.” Huang Yu drank the wine in his glass.

Du Ming nodded frequently, but remembering something, he said: “However, if King Yan dies, this technique of brewing wine will be lost. It’s a pity.”

“That’s right.”

“That’s right, it can make a lot of money.”

“…” The

rich people started talking.

Zhang Qian didn’t blame the wealthy people for getting into Qian’s eyes.

Because he himself has already been moved.

If they can obtain the technique of brewing wine, their Zhang family’s strength will be greatly increased.

“It’s really a pity. If you can get it, everyone can make a fortune together. It’s just that the Yan Palace is heavily guarded now, so it’s difficult.” Zhang Qian sighed.

At this time, a young wealthy family suddenly said: “That’s not necessarily the case. I heard that Wang Yanzhong, the head of the tooth shop, went to the palace yesterday and sold a batch of slaves to the palace. It is not impossible for our people to go in and find out the art of brewing.”

Zhang Qian and Zhang Kang’s eyes lit up, Zhang Qian said: “I also know about Wang Yanzhong’s going to the palace, why do you know such details.” The

young man said: “Really To be honest, I know an idler who has a close relationship with Wang Yanzhong, and he told me.”

Zhang Kang sneered, “It’s that simple, just call Wang Yanzhong.”

“What’s so difficult about it? I’ll send someone to tie up Wang Yanzhong.” Huang Yu gritted his teeth.

To him, Wang Yanzhong was a low-level guy.

If he doesn’t obey, it’s okay to kill him.

After discussing this matter, everyone felt relieved, as if seeing that the art of brewing wine had been achieved.

At the time of toasting and staggering.

At this time, the door of the box opened, and a singer in green came to Zhang Kang and whispered something in his ear.

Zhang Kang’s complexion changed slightly, he got up and followed the woman out the door, then turned and went into another room.

“Mr. Zhang, you are so elegant.” Inside the

door, a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe was drinking alone.

“Commander Tuoba, when did you come to Yan County?”

Zhang Kang looked humble.

The middle-aged man did not answer, but looked at Zhang Kang with a smile, “Now that you are the sheriff of Yan County and the son-in-law of the Yuan family, are you still afraid of a little King Yan?”

“We underestimated the Palace of King Yan. “Zhang Kang lowered his voice.

The middle-aged scribe shook his head, “Hmph, it’s because you’ve been in Ruanxiang for too long, and you’re becoming more and more incompetent.” The

middle-aged scribe’s tone was calm, but there was a murderous air in every sentence.

“Commander Tuoba said that the little ones will die.” Fine beads of sweat appeared on Zhang Kang’s forehead.

This person is Tuo Balie, the leader of Beidi’s Black Iron Guard.

Responsible for collecting information from Yanzhou, and has rarely appeared in Yanzhou.

Now that he came here in person, is Beidi going to do anything against Yanzhou?

Thinking of this, he felt apprehensive.
