Chapter 407: Greed
The thing Mu Zhanbei wants to say is about Li Xuesen!
After Li Xuesen arrived in the northwest, he was still very measured at first because of the lessons of the past. When the water is clear, there are no fish, and he still knows this. Sitting in that position, he can't fill his pockets, in fact, if he really wants to become an oil and salt inadminister, just saying that his backstage Kang Xuandi will be the first to be suspicious of him. Therefore, what should be collected still has to be collected.
It's just that people's appetite will always get bigger and bigger, and Li Xuesen was a little uneasy when he received a few hundred taels of silver at the beginning, and he couldn't sleep well for a few nights in a row. The side room he took away was not only sent by Sang Luo, the woman did use her scheming to stay in the Li family safely, and her loyalty to Sang Luo was not high. However, who is Princess Suyang? was calculated once, but it was because she was sincere to Li Xuesen and overconfident in herself. When her heart is cold, where will she be constrained again? A small side room, even if you can give birth to a son, what can you do? It can only be a concubine forever! If you want to find a good way out for your concubine, you can only ask for her as a wife.
Princess Suyang took her concubine to her side and raised her for a while, and then sent the child back. When she was by her side, the concubine's food and clothing were exactly the same as her little county lord Kangxin. After sending the child back, although he didn't treat the child harshly, he didn't deduct what the concubine deserved. However, there is a difference between the concubine and the concubine, and the concubine can't be treated the same as the concubine, right? Princess Suyang didn't even say anything, and the side room immediately understood. Then she took the initiative to come to the door, although Princess Suyang was lukewarm to her, but she knew that this family, and the one who could finally be the master of the house was, and it could only be Princess Suyang.
She made a choice and expressed her attitude, and Princess Suyang added a lot of good things to her son that day. Looking at the specifications, there is basically no difference with the small county lord.
She went out from the land of fireworks, and the best thing is to figure out people's hearts. The good things that Princess Suyang rewarded were also very vague, and she didn't usually treat her kindly, which was obviously to remind her that she didn't want others to know that she was now the person on Princess Suyang's side.
It is precisely because of this that Li Xuesen took the person with him without any pressure, but he didn't know that his side room had been promised by Princess Suyang before leaving.
"Master, you are the emperor's person, and you represent the emperor's face here. Concubines often hear people say that when they are officials, they don't look at how big the officials are, but how big they are at the top and in front of them. Is there anyone more faceless than you in this small land in the northwest? This is all those people's own filial piety, and it is not the master who asks them. Look at the concubine, you can just accept it! You see, before leaving the capital, the princess didn't also say that she has her in everything! The side room was not in a hurry, and after Li Xuesen tossed and turned for several nights and didn't sleep well, the wind blew on the pillow.
Li Xuesen thinks about it, he is a colt today, and the emperor is his brother-in-law according to his generation! Besides, all this silver was sent by people in a hurry, so why didn't he accept it?
In this way, he can put away his things and feel at ease.
"How much did you collect?" Sang Luo sneered, he already knew what kind of virtue Li Xuesen was.
"One hundred thousand taels!"
Rao is Sang Luo had already prepared, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "One hundred thousand taels? Where did he go to collect a hundred thousand taels of silver? "The northwest is such a big place, and the garrison is basically from Mu Zhanbei. Those who have hearts and eyes are active, but most of them are honest, and unless those soldiers have families, they have to spend the silver in their hands when they are alone, and it is impossible to give gifts. What's more, this person is still the emperor's person, and it is impossible for them to rush to deliver the silver.
"Merchant!"
Sang Luo nodded, the merchant has silver, and it is normal to want to take this opportunity to walk around with the colt. But even so, if it's not a big deal, I'll send a thousand taels at most. After all, being a businessman also has to look at the situation, and a colt is worth this price.
Therefore, I am afraid that the way of coming from this 100,000 taels is not so legitimate. Moreover, if it were really justifiable, Mu Zhanbei would not come out and talk about it.
"The merchant of Dali!" Mu Zhanbei added another sentence.
Sang Luo raised his eyebrows, which sounded like he was still unfinished: "And?" ”
"Wu family!"
Really!
Sang Luo sneered, Li Xuesen is really good, everyone has gone to the northwest, and he actually contacted the Wu family again. Because of the calculated things before, the relationship between Li Xuesen and Wu Han seemed normal on the surface, but in fact, it has never been very good. I didn't expect this person to go to the northwest and repair the relationship.
"What are the Wu family planning to do? Wooed the relationship with Li Xuesen, so that he could reach out to the Northwest Army? Li Xuesen is the emperor's person, and the Wu family is doing this, making it clear that they want to oppose the emperor. Just thinking about it for a while, Sang Luo still felt that something was not quite right. It was expected that Li Xuesen would accept the gift, but Wu Han was not a mediocre hand, at this moment, he should not do this kind of self-defeating thing.
Mu Zhanbei lowered his eyes and reminded lightly: "The Wu family, Wu Han is not the only one!" "Wu Han is indeed okay in the younger generation, not a fool. However, Wu Han is not the only one who can represent the Wu family.
Sang Luo was reminded by him like this, and after a little thought, he knew who it was.
Wu Yi'er!
Although Wu Yi'er's father is only a concubine, he can let the Empress Dowager Wu and Uncle Guo take a high look, and he can also control the economic lifeline of the Wu family, so you can know that this person is not stupid. In fact, whether it is Wu Feifei or Wu Yier, they are not stupid before they get married. In terms of calculation, the city government, they are much better than the original owner Yin Sangluo. It's just that after getting married, when they are sincere and want more things, they lose their bias in what they do. Especially Wu Yier, who has two children, has a big body and mind, and she is not mentally normal, so she really has no rules to do things.
"She's rich!" Sang Luo praised sincerely, "How much did you send?" ”
"Eighty thousand taels!" Wu Yi'er is not as educated as the daughters of big families like Meng Zhiniang, and her thoughtfulness is definitely not comparable to those people. She thought that she had done things cleanly, but she didn't know that the northwest was under the control of Mu Zhanbei. Li Xuesen didn't do things too restrained, she asked people to send the silver ticket over with her front foot, and Mu Zhanbei even figured out how much Li Xuesen accepted on her back foot.
"What does she want Li Xuesen to do?" This is what Sang Luo is curious about, if you want to say that it may be useful to please Princess Suyang, what is the use of pleasing a colt?
Or, what she fancied was the usefulness of Li Xuesen's military rations?
