Just when Xiao Yao was working as a temporary tutor and teaching mathematics and economics to these students, Xiao Shilian also came to the Four Seasons Restaurant to report to Chen Shubao about the information he had returned.

"Xu Jingcheng was so easily blackmailed by Xiao Shilang?" After listening to Xiao Shilian's report, Chen Shubao frowned and said that he didn't believe it much.

"It's really unbelievable, a dignified Wuxing County Taishou and the governor of the Eastern Route Army, can be coerced by a small infantry battalion captain from him, but I always feel that even if King Xing comes forward, it may not make Xu Jingcheng comply." Shen Ke said lightly.

"But he succeeded, let Xu Jingcheng send troops to besiege Haiyan County, if the two of them join forces, this salt gang plus our 800 guards is really not their opponent!" Chen Shubao began to believe this statement a little bit again.

"We found out that it was Zu Yuan who arrived in Huzhou first and met Xu Jingcheng, and then Xu Jingcheng immediately ordered troops to rush to Haiyan County. Before the general paper mill delivered the latest batch of paper armor to the East Route Army first, could it be that Xu Jingcheng was returning the favor to them? And as soon as the typhoon disaster passed, General Commercial Bank immediately mobilized a large number of materials to go to Wuxing County for disaster relief! Zhang Dai also said.

"But I still think it's a bit far-fetched, what this salt gang did, not to mention the local, even the Qiantang area is an open secret, and many imperial histories have already been exposed, but we have stopped it, if Xiao Yao just uses this crime of covering up and concealing to blackmail Xu Jingcheng, it's too simple, right?" Shen Keqing still couldn't figure it out.

"No matter if it's simple or not, anyway, this Xu Jingcheng has already boarded Xiao Yao's thief ship, and sure enough, the wicked will have a harvest! This time the storm swept through Wuxing County, and God wanted to punish him! However, judging from the fact that he concealed the 800 guards for us, there should be no ship of the king of Shangxing, and he dare not completely oppose us! However, the secret letter in his hand is threatening us at any time, and we have to think about how to deal with it! Chen Shubao said worriedly.

"But Xu Jingcheng is a big member of the party and the governor of the Eastern Route Army, such a high position and strong guards, it is difficult for us to attack him!" Shen Ke said with a slight frown.

"He is the governor of the Eastern Route Army, and when the time comes, he will definitely lead the army to the expedition, and now the Qi State has sent the general Gao Chang Power to lead 30,000 elite soldiers to the south, although now the two sides seem to be drawing their crossbows, but in fact our target is only the Huainan area, and the Qi State has a dispensable attitude towards Huainan, it is better for us to cooperate with the Qi people and 。。。。。。 for us." Zhang Dai whispered.

"Are you trying to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country?" As soon as Xiao Shilian, who was a soldier, heard that he was using Qi State, he couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Bold! Is there a place for you to speak? Chen Shubao also reprimanded angrily.

Frightened, Xiao Shilian immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, but Zhang Dai smiled and relieved him of the siege and said: "As a cavalry captain, Xiao Gongzi is of course loyal and patriotic, but we are not collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, we just want to borrow the enemy's hand to get rid of some other enemies for us!" When we launch a fierce attack and recapture Huainan, Qi should not fight hard with us, but choose to abandon Huainan, but in the process, if there is a small accident, such as being attacked by the enemy, the governor of the partial division is unfortunately killed。。。。。。。 Zhang Dai said with a smile.

Chen Shubao shook his head and said: "Although this is also a way, but now this Northern Expedition is a bit difficult?" Today, my father is furious, saying that God has no eyes, and at the last moment of the Northern Expedition, this great wind disaster occurred! ”

Everyone was stunned, and Xiao Shilian immediately asked nervously: "Isn't it the Northern Expedition?" ”

This Northern Expedition is a good time for Xiao Shilian and these soldiers to show their skills, they were all gearing up and ready to make contributions on the battlefield, but now they suddenly heard that it might be canceled, and of course their mood was unacceptable.

"Of course the Northern Expedition is going to be the most important thing for my father, but it may have to be postponed, and those ministers and generals are arguing!" Chen Shubao also said irritably.

。。。。。。

"Young master, our general business bank has sent two fleets out to provide disaster relief, but it is still a drop in the bucket, just relying on the disaster relief of our business houses, we can't save so many disaster-stricken counties at all, especially Wuxing County, which is an important part of the Northern Expedition, but it is this tragic scene, and now this Xu Taishou is the most difficult." Zu Yuan said to Xiao Yao worriedly.

"It's really not enough for us to do it alone, and I think the court is arguing now! The Northern Expedition was originally almost prepared, and if there was no accident, it should have gone out in the next two months, but now it has encountered this rare storm in a hundred years, and I guess the Northern Expedition is estimated to be postponed! Xiao Yao also said with a solemn face.

"I don't know much about marching and fighting, but I heard that the Qi side has sent 30,000 elites south to Xuzhou, and it is also led by the Lanling King Gao Chang, if the Northern Expedition is postponed, so that the Qi army has more time to lay out the defense line, won't it be more difficult to deal with at that time?" Zu Yuan asked.

"This is what Wu Mingche and their high-level considerations are, if they rush to send troops, and there are a large number of disaster victims in the country to make trouble, it will be troublesome! By the way, when it comes to a large number of victims, it is better for us to provide disaster relief through industry! Anyway, our general trading bank will continue to reopen the branch of the general trading house in Wuxing County, and there are more than 100,000 people affected by the disaster this time, these are all laborers, as long as they have food, even if they don't have wages, they will flock to it! Xiao Yao's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, yes, yes! Young master, this is really a good way! We don't have that much money to sustain this relief operation, and if we hire these victims as workers, it will really be beneficial to both parties! Zu Yuan also applauded.

"And it's not just us, we can also call on other businesses, even government temples, to let them all build a large number of civil engineering projects, and we can make use of these labors, killing two birds with one stone!" Xiao Yao also said excitedly.

"Young master, your proposal is really wonderful, I will go to Chen Boxi tomorrow to discuss it, and ask him to suggest that the emperor consider using this method to relieve the disaster!" Zu Yuan said with a smile.

"Sure enough, economic problems still have to be solved by economic methods!" Xiao Yao was also happy that he had thought of such a method.

"Zu Yuan, I have taught you a lesson in the past two days, what do you think, can you understand those formulas and economic theories?" Xiao Yao asked.

"The young master is really an extraordinary person, it seems that what Master Zhou said is right, the young master is really the apprentice of Taishang Laojun, he can know such ingenious things, although those formulas and charts are strange, but they can allow me to quickly judge the specific situation of the current business house, and those theories, put many examples into them are valid, I have been doing business for so many years, I have not been able to summarize these truths, the young master is really eye-opening to me!" Zu Yuan said in admiration.

"Then what do you think of Ke'er, she said she wants to learn to do business with you." Xiao Yao remembered Song Keer's serious listening to the class, and she had the temperament of a well-behaved student!

"Miss Song is very talented in business, she can teach a lot of things, and she can draw inferences from one another, if I could have such an understanding back then, I would have defeated Yinhai Commercial Company a long time ago!" Zu Yuan knew that Song Keer was Xiao Yao's woman, so of course he wanted to pat the ass of this future boss lady.

"Okay, then you can teach her well, tell her to the outside world that she is your daughter, take her out to see and understand!" Xiao Yao also intends to cultivate Song Ke'er.
