Chapter Eighty-Six: Shrewdness
Yang Xin was about to sweat when he saw this, and he quickly said what kind of ability Yan Shu had, and what kind of bends did he take, but he heard Yan Shu say again, "The emperor is in a hurry, and it is not too late to make a decision after listening to the conditions of the grass people."

"What else do you have to say?"
"Weichen gave more than these 500,000 taels, and another 500,000 taels were reserved for state use."
As soon as these words came out, everyone gasped, and even Yang Xin was frightened, Uncle Shi was really willing to put down his book.
"Oh?! So you're willing to pay a million taels? β
Yan Suan shook his head, "Not only that, but there are another four million taels, for the southern naval army, to strengthen national defense, to buy war horses for the north for military purposes, to build merchant ships for the east, and to open up the southeast waterway freight; another four million taels, building trade roads, opening guest houses, from east to west, from south to north, all over the place; another 4 million taels, build wind and rain towers in various places, observe the stars, and predict wind and rain; Another 4 million taels, the introduction of Nanxuan, Xiling, Beiyan novel species, enrich Dongsheng agricultural varieties, another 4 million taels, to the poor land to build a school, set up shops, shovel mountains for roads, pave stones for ladders, in order to help Dongsheng every year of peace, harvest every year, family harmony. β
At this point, everyone forgot to breathe, this kind of scene is too novel, others dare not yearn for it, but I didn't expect Yan Shu to say it all in one breath.
But the emperor seemed unmoved, and said, "What you said is good, but these require not only material resources, but also manpower, and this person is not easy to find." β
"The emperor doesn't need to look for it, the grass people are willing to do it all by themselves!"
The emperor was obviously moved, but he still pretended to be calm, "But I still have to ask what Wu Taiwei means about this matter, after all, my daughter belongs to someone else", and asked Wu Taiwei again, "What does Wu Aiqing mean?" β
According to Wu Taiwei, it is a hundred willingness, Wu Xue simply can't adapt to life in the palace, besides, this Yan is obviously a capable person, although he was born in a businessman, but no one dares to underestimate it, but I heard that he has three concubines before he marries, and the emperor is not sure what this means, should he agree or disagree?
Yan Shu saw that he hesitated, and gave a condition that was enough to tempt him, "Lord Taiwei, don't worry, if the grass people marry Miss Wu as their wife, they will take care of them in every way, and a few days ago, the grass people dismissed the concubines in the family and found another way out for them. β
Wu Taiwei nodded immediately when he heard this, but as soon as he thought of the emperor, he added, "But γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
But what else can be done? He really couldn't think of it, so he had to look at the emperor's intention to seek him, but the emperor didn't even look at him with his eyes closed, and he didn't know what it meant.
Seeing this, Yang Xin quietly stood behind Captain Wu and said, "The Ten Princes said that they don't like Miss Wu. β
When this Wu Taiwei heard this, he was completely iron-hearted, and he had to promote this matter even if he worked hard, so he gritted his teeth, "The old minister is willing to marry his little daughter to Yan Gongzi to save the country." β
The emperor finally found the bottom of the stairs, so he said, "Even so, I have nothing to say, but now the treasury is really empty, and the library building has not been renovated for many yearsγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
Yan Suan listened to the sound and said, "The grass people are willing to give another million taels for national use, but there is still one thing that needs to be decreed by the emperor." β
"Childe might as well say it directly."
"This Miss Wu is still in prison, and I ask the emperor to order her to be released, and I also ask the official to record what she said today as evidence."
The emperor nodded, "Yes." β
As soon as this remark comes out, it is the best of both worlds.
After the banquet was over, Yang Xin and Yan Suan walked back slowly, Xu was out of mind, Yan Suan was extraordinarily leisurely, and hummed a little song from time to time, but Yang Xin really didn't know what to be happy about, and lost so much silver to go in, so he asked, "Uncle Shi is so happy?" β
"Naturally, it's fun."
"What is the joy of losing so much money to go in?"
"Compensation? Uncle Shi has made a lot of money, how can there be any loss? β
Yang Xin snorted, "Twenty-two million taels still dare to say that you have made a fortune?" β
"Isn't Uncle Shi going in with so much silver and having to earn it back sooner or later?"
"It's all built for the emperor, does it have anything to do with you?"
"Did Uncle Shi say that all the money earned will be owned by the state?"
Yang Xin was stunned for a moment, as if he really hadn't said it, "Uncle Shi did it on purpose?!" Okay, you're playing tricks in front of so many people? β
"What's slippery? Uncle Shi is a businessman, and everything is based on profit. β
"Aren't you afraid that the emperor will repay the debt?"
Yan Suan didn't even look at her, took the Holy Decree out of his sleeve, and stuffed it directly to her.
Yang Xin saw that it was actually the transcript of the official, and it was really exactly the same as what was said in the hall, so he chased after Yan Suan and shouted, "Uncle Shi is good, Uncle Shi is good!" β
"You're just stupid, study hard."
Yang Xin was so modest for the first time, "Yes, the master and nephew must remember the teachings!" β
Then he followed back to the National Teacher's Mansion step by step.
In the other direction of the official road, Zhang Yingyu also chatted with her prime minister's father about today's affairs in the hall, "What did the emperor say today?" β
The prime minister sighed, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried when things had developed to this point, so he said helplessly, "Today, the uncle of the national teacher married Miss Wuer for 22 million taels. β
"What? That monkey-like Miss Wuji is worth 22 million taels?! β
The prime minister sighed again and reprimanded, "Look at what you said, how can King Nanming have a good impression of you like you?" β
Zhang Yingyu pursed her lips disdainfully, "Good feelings? What favorites? His favor was given to that slut named Yang Xin! β
The prime minister slapped him when he heard this, "I've spoiled you since you were a child, but I didn't expect you to be spoiled like this, and you actually said such foul words?" β
Zhang Yingyu didn't argue, she cried silently, after all, she grew up with her own care, and the prime minister couldn't bear it, "Don't blame your father for beating you, it's all for your good, you bear it, as long as your father is in the day, he will definitely help you win the back position, and the whole world will be yours at that time." β
"I'm going to lose even the King of Nanming, what do I want to do in this world?"
The prime minister sighed again and scolded secretly, "Don't be angry", but he still persuaded, "He is not close to you now because the national teacher is still there, and when he becomes the emperor's father, he will find a way to get rid of the national teacher, but now you have to be more peaceful and close to King Nanming." β
Speaking of this, Zhang Yingyu wanted to cry even more, since she got married, she has only seen Yang Ming a handful of times, and what kind of closeness is she talking about, but it's better not to let her father know, otherwise she will scold herself for being unproductive, so she asked again, "That cheap, the county lord's uncle married Miss Wu Er and married, why did Daddy sigh?" β
"I originally thought that the uncle of the national teacher had attracted the power of the martial arts, and according to the meaning of the national teacher to King Nanming, he would definitely help him in the future, but today I don't look at that person like a simple person, I am afraid that it will not be easy to control."
Zhang Yingyu had nothing to do about this, so she could only say some comforting words, "Daddy, don't worry, take one step at a time." β
The prime minister didn't know whether he heard it or not, sighed again, and parted ways with Zhang Yingyu on the street corner.
