Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 88
[Chapter 88]
“Slow down, uncle, don’t choke, drink some wine.”
Zhao Xu and King Chun sat opposite each other in the gazebo by the lotus pond in the east courtyard of Prince Yan’s mansion.
At this time, Chun Wang was devouring the food on the table.
“It’s fragrant, it’s really fragrant.” King Chun held the roast chicken in his hand, his mouth was full of greasy.
In the past few days in the deserted village, he couldn’t eat well, sleep well, and suffered a lot.
As soon as he arrived in Yancheng, he asked Zhao Xu to prepare a sumptuous meal for him.
Although the chicken, fish, meat and eggs on the table are not as exquisite or as delicious as the ones in the capital, but he now feels that they are delicious.
“Yeah, drink, drink, ah…” Chun Wang picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, then let out a satisfied sigh.
“Nephew, I have to say that the wine you make is really good. It’s sold like crazy in the capital. Your emperor uncle and I have a thousand altars. Now entertaining guests, if you don’t bring out this wine, it’s really shameless.” Chun Wang gnawed a mouthful of the roast chicken, looked around, “I mean, you sell ice and wine, and you earn a lot of money. This palace is also repaired, so you can’t lose the royal demeanor.”
Zhao Xu smiled, “Although I have earned a lot of money, my nephew’s expenses are also high. Yan County is poor and white, and the palace collects low taxes in order to win people’s hearts. It can be said that the expenditures of Yan County are all paid by the palace. Yes .”
King Chun nodded, “It’s really not easy for a good nephew, but if it weren’t for the magnanimity of the good nephew, it would be difficult to gain a firm foothold in Yan County. The emperor also agrees with this.”
King Yan’s actions in Yan County are now It has been passed to the capital.
Many people think it is stupid for King Yan to spend money to sell land from the rich.
But in his opinion, it was this kind of stupidity that saved King Yan.
“Oh? Really?” Zhao Xu heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Zhao Heng agreed that it was reasonable for him to do so, after all, the emperor hoped that the world would be a king’s land.
The ones who are unhappy are probably the powerful families in the court.
Because such a method would undoubtedly weaken their strength.
“Well, the emperor said it himself, but it was a bit of a waste of money.” King Chun laughed, “But with the ingenuity of my nephew, it seems that this matter has been resolved. On the way here, I heard many businessmen say Regarding the matter of the Yan County Commercial Bank, otherwise, there would be no brainstorming, and someone would send a letter to the Commercial Bank.”
“My nephew is just a little clever, but although the business goods are important, the contacts are equally important, otherwise the business will not be able to continue, so I hope the emperor After my uncle returns to the capital, he can take care of my nephew’s business.”
“It’s easy to say, you saved my life, and I can help with this small favor. Who dares to trouble you in the capital, just let you People come to me.” Chun Wang patted his chest.
Hearing this, Zhao Xu raised his wine glass, “Then thank you, Uncle Huang.” The
two drank a few more glasses, and King Chun was finally full.
At this time, he remembered the business of this trip, “Qiu Sheng said that you have read the imperial decree, there are only two things in this trip, one, you have made meritorious deeds in beheading Beidi people, and the emperor granted you permission to expand the royal army to 30,000 people. ”
The second thing is the military supply list. This year, the imperial court removed the blood-enriching pills from the military supply and replaced them with your secret medicine, a total of 800,000 taels of silver. You will deliver the goods to Yanguan now. As soon as it arrives, the money from the imperial court will arrive soon.”
“Eight hundred thousand taels.” Zhao Xu secretly called out, feeling a burst of excitement.
This is a military supply list. As long as his medicine is approved, the business will be stable.
In the future, as long as the court needs it, it will give him money.
The cost of allicin can be described as very low, it is a huge profit.
Most importantly, it opened the door for him to the munitions trade.
This time he can sell medicine, and maybe he can sell other things in the future.
“Of course it’s no problem. My nephew has already prepared a batch and sent them to Yanguan today.” Zhao Xu said.
King Jin nodded, “It’s just right, I’ll go with this batch of goods.”
“Why did the uncle leave in such a hurry? Could it be that my nephew didn’t treat me well?” untie.
King Jin had a bitter face, “This time, the emperor insisted on me going. It’s really not my wish. Now I just want to get things done and go back to the capital to enjoy myself.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t laugh or cry. The rumors about this uncle are really true.
He said: “In this case, my nephew will not keep the emperor’s uncle.”
King Jin nodded, “Remember to send more people to protect me to Yanguan, this Yanzhou is too dangerous.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t laugh or cry, and called a Jia Ding ordered him to go to Peking University, and asked Lu Chang to bring a thousand troops to escort King Chun.
After hearing this, King Jin nodded in satisfaction, “That Lu Chang is not bad, he is a mighty general.” After
a pause, he said, “It’s just that this time the Zhang family’s collusion with Beidi really doesn’t need to be told to the emperor?”
“No need Now, Song Ya is dead, there is no basis for empty talk, and my nephew doesn’t want to startle the snake.” Zhao Xu said.
On the way back, he had thought of countermeasures.
The Zhang family wants to hook up with the Beidi people to get rid of him, so he will use this opportunity to make a game, let the Beidi people lose their troops, and solve the Zhang family by the way.
“Well, so, nephew, take care of yourself.” King Chun cupped his hands.
in the afternoon.
The secret medicine sent to Yanguan will be cured, and Zhao Xu will send King Chun to the north gate.
Watching Alcohol King leave.
“This time Song Ya tied King Chun up, but gave His Highness a favor.” Officials from Yan County came out with Zhao Xu to give him away.
Seeing the disappearance of King Chun, Xu Lie smiled.
Zhao Xu shook his head, “You think too much, King Chun’s attitude is just the attitude of the emperor, if there is a conflict of interest, he will not care about this king saving his life this time.”
“The most ruthless emperor’s family, that’s why.” Liu Fu sighed slightly.
He is erudite about the past and the present, so he is naturally clear about the bloody incidents of God’s royal family in history.
Chang Wei kept his face cold from beginning to end, and when the other officials dispersed, he said: “Your Highness, let the last general lead someone to raid Zhang’s house. What use is there to keep such wolf-hearted people who have forgotten their ancestors and have tooth decay with the enemy?
” A traitor who hates internal and external enemies.
