Chapter 73: Gossip

Huang Lang stretched out his big fat hand and held it tightly, as if he had caught gold, and when he talked about making a big profit, the whole person was emitting golden light.

Fang Xu was stunned, no wonder the Huang family's business is so good, there is a reason why people's business is good, people are willing to work hard.

This also made Fang Xu think of the construction of an intelligence network, in fact, those subordinates in the mansion are the best sources, he can start from this point and establish his own intelligence network.

But now it's still the manpower, the manpower!

Fang Xu sighed, no one!

The shops in the Dingguo Mansion have been recovered, and some shops are being recovered, because the clansmen refuse to return the shops, and there is no shortage of wars.

In the past two days, the performance of participating in the Guogong has not stopped.

Dingguo Gong held his sick body to the court and scolded those imperial historians, why did he do this? Why did he lock his people to death?

If he is rich, doesn't he know how generous he is to his people? The border soldiers have not received their salaries for half a year, and you are all very generous, come, take out the money.

They rushed to the front line in the border war, but the fat-headed and big-eared people who ate one by one hid in the rear to enjoy leisure, now it's not too much to give out some silver, come on, take out the silver!

Those imperial histories are all Qingliu officials, and none of them are willing to pay for it, so they ushered in another scolding, scolded those people, and Dingguo Gong appealed to the emperor.

He is not doing all this now to squeeze some silver and send it to the border pass, when will the treasury pull out the silver, pull out the grain and grass, and wait for an army of 100,000.

You can't let the soldiers starve to death, right?

Emperor Yan didn't expect Dingguo Gong to come to this trick, and he was speechless, do you want to solve the problem of grain and grass at the border? If it is to be solved, then what has been done before is not in vain?

If you don't solve it, it's really hard to punish the Duke of the State with this matter, and people are also dedicated to the public.

In this way, the atmosphere in the court fell into a strange situation, and the smartest person in this is Wu Anbo, it stands to reason that he should stand up and support Dingguo Gong to ask for food and grass.

But Wu Anbo did not stand up, and kept closing his eyes in the court, but those loyal ministers stood up and accused the household department of ineffective work, and the matter of grain and grass at the border should be solved immediately.

If there were no soldiers fighting at the border, could there be the current prosperous era? If there were no soldiers at the border to fight, would Xiling be able to sue for peace?

Now the envoy of Xiling has not yet arrived, but the soldiers at the border pass are going to starve to death first, which is really ridiculous, and it is ridiculous to slide the world!

When those ministers spoke, the corners of Wu Anbo's mouth twitched, what is the difference between saying this and slapping the emperor's face? There's a reason why some people don't get reused.

Just having strength and no emotional intelligence, that's really not fragrant!

Wu Anbo looked at the emperor's expression from the gap in his half-closed eyes, and sure enough, he saw Emperor Yan's face turned blue, and there was a fire jumping in his eyes, sympathizing with the three divisions, and the three divisions would interrogate the household department, and this time they were going to take the blame.

Sure enough, Wu Anbo's thoughts flashed, and Emperor Yan began to fire, his fire was not sent to the minister of loyalty and righteousness, so he would be called a stunned monarch, and Emperor Yan didn't want to be scolded for fainting monarch.

Instead, they fired at the three divisions and asked why they were not doing their jobs effectively.

How long has it been, and what step has been taken in the household investigation? When will you be able to pull out and give out money? Do you want to starve the border army to death? Do you still want to get mixed up? ......

Can this official still be an official? Can't be used as a substitution!

A series of questions frightened the hundred officials to their knees.

Fang Xu listened to Huang Lang's description, imagining the liveliness in the court, and felt that the court was a big opera garden, with different operas staged every day, and the officials and the emperor were all plays!

The final result of this matter is naturally that hundreds of officials were punished and promised to speed up, but there are too many old accounts in the household department, and it is really not fast.

The matter of dividing the family of the Dingguo Mansion can be regarded as having a result in the court, that is, regardless of the housework of the Dingguo Mansion in the court, who is in charge of who pays the money.

Dingguo Gong is so domineering, whoever says irresponsible things, he will live in someone's mansion, and he will take hundreds of soldiers with him.

Eat your family's every day, drink your family's, use your family's! Dare to entertain badly, smash you!

"My father-in-law is such a scoundrel?" Fang Xu smacked his mouth a few times, revealing a look of admiration, he still thought that Dingguo Gong was the kind of person who was particularly serious and rigid.

"That is, you don't know how squishy Dingguo Gong was back then, I heard my grandfather say that Dingguo Gong was the little overlord of Yanjing back then, and he was even more squishy than you.

There are no bad things in the world that Dingguo Gong has not done, but later the border broke out in the war, and the old Dingguo Gong died of injuries, and Dingguo Gong became responsible.

He has become an invincible general in the hearts of the world, and has been leading troops to guard the northwest border pass. ”

Huang Lang talked about the events of Dingguo Gong back then, showing a look of admiration, and then looked at Fang Xu and said, "You have a relationship with Dingguo Mansion. ”

"Well, it's really fateful!"

Fang Xu answered casually, but he was thinking in his heart: No wonder when I showed my man's responsibility, Ding Guogong believed it without doubt, it turned out that he was this kind of person, a fellow believer!

Dingguo Gong made a big fuss in the court, Emperor Yan didn't care about it, and the other princes and ministers naturally didn't say anything, they were really afraid that Dingguo Gong would take hundreds of soldiers to the palace to make trouble.

Even if you don't make trouble, you live in the house every day, and eating and drinking Lazar is a big expense.

"In two days, the affairs of the Dingguo Mansion will be settled, don't worry about the things of the shop, but is your cloth really that good?

If it's really that good, you can consider smuggling overseas, that's the big market. ”

Huang Lang looked left and right, there were only him and Fang Xu in the room, not even a little maid, so he came to Fang Xu's ear and whispered:

"There are countries beyond the East China Sea, and the good things of our Yan country can be sold at a good price when they are shipped there, and I tell you that pearls the size of pigeon eggs can be exchanged for just a bag of tea."

"Business is so good, why not open the seaside pier? Doesn't the royal family want to do this business? Fang Xu came to the spirit, he found that it was too easy to make money in this world.

"Of course I thought about it, I sent several fleets to sea before, but unfortunately none of the ships came back, so I put out the idea of trade."

Huang Lang continued to get closer, and his voice was even quieter, almost airy.

"My grandfather said that those fleets were killed by pirates, and those pirates were the biggest merchants, and they controlled the trade routes on the sea and did not let the Yan people pass through for the greater good.

However, there were still people in Yan who successfully opened a trade route, but they were later forced by the imperial court to become pirates, so if they wanted to smuggle, they had to go through the pirate level.

The good things of overseas countries also entered the Yan Kingdom through pirates, which were all private goods, and they were going to lose their heads when they were discovered by the emperor. ”

Fang Xu couldn't help but nod after hearing this, it is true that pirates are sometimes the embodiment of merchants, and the things they loot will definitely not be eaten by themselves, but they still have to sell them elsewhere.

But the royal family's approach is over, this is also a head cut, can it really be cut off? Where there is profit, there must be businessmen.
