"What does Han Qian mean by this, if the eldest brother doesn't drink hangover soup, is it possible that Feng Yi is going to take away this food box full of Hepu beads?" The county lord of Qingyang stared at the jewel in the mezzanine of the food box, and he couldn't suppress the turmoil in his heart, and asked.

Changxiang Marquis Wang Yong was shocked, but also smiled bitterly, knowing that Qingyang's guess was good, and the hangover soup was the last test that Han Qian used to test whether he had doubts in his heart.

If he had doubts just now, he didn't dare to drink the hangover soup on the spot, but let Feng Yi put it there first, then Feng Yi took the food box away, and he would never know that there were so many Hepu treasure beads hidden in the food box.

He picked up a Hepu bead and looked at it in front of the window.

The so-called "eight points are treasured, nine points are treasures", these thumb-thick Hepu beads, each of which is 12 minutes in size, can be said to be worth 100 gold.

Then open another food box, this food box is made into a mezzanine, and the inside is full of the best jewels and jade treasures.

The atmosphere of Shu is extravagant, and the dignitaries and wealthy all love to play with rare treasures.

Changxiang Marquis Wang Yong grew up in Shu Palace, and after leaving the palace to go to the house, he made friends with the literati and ink writers, and his eyesight was definitely not bad, and it was not difficult to imagine how amazing the value of this batch of pearls and jades was, and there were always three or four hundred thousand dollars worth of money.

And of course, he also knew that after yesterday's night banquet, Han Qian sent these treasures into his Hou Mansion at this time, just to help contract the affairs of Jingluo Banan!

Changxiang Marquis Wang Yonggui is a prince, even if he is snubbed by his father, the guards, maids, and eunuchs of the Hou Mansion add up to six or seven hundred people.

In addition to the normal Fenglu and the rewards of festivals every year, the Hou Mansion also has a total of more than 50,000 acres of farmland and more than 1,000 households of farm slaves, and can produce 60,000 or 70,000 stone grains every year.

If you include all the industries he has secretly operated over the years, it will always be worth seven or eight hundred thousand yuan.

However, these are either grain fields, manors, or warehouses, weaving workshops or pawn shops, and those who can really be directly taken out for dotting may not be able to have 30,000 or 40,000 yuan of living money; After all, they have too many things to maintain in secret, and they have to be careful and consume a lot of money and food everywhere.

Although he is a marquis of Changxiang, the ministers of the court and the eunuchs in the palace, even if he will not be too close to Wang Hongyi, the Marquis of Qingjiang, in front of his father at this time, he will never perfunctory to him at will.

He hoped that more people would speak for him in the matter of Jinglubanan, and in the final analysis, it would come down to the method of "money can make the devil grind".

When he woke up in the morning, he was still secretly worried about this matter, but he didn't expect that Han Qian seemed to be able to guess his mind at any time, so he sent Feng Yi to deliver this batch of jewels and jade treasures to the door, which could really solve the big problem he was facing at the moment.

Although Wang Yong, the Marquis of Changxiang, could think of this batch of goods, it should be all obtained by the third prince Yang Yuanpu from the eight states of Hunan, not Han Qian took it out of his own pocket, but Han Qian was able to take out such a huge amount of goods for him at once, and he was extremely courageous, and the Marquis of Changxiang was also extremely shocked in his heart.

The county lord of Qingyang was also secretly shocked, suppressed the turmoil in his heart, picked up a few pearls and jades to appreciate, compared to the treasures that were regarded as treasures by the nobles in the palace, he had to be not bad, and sighed: "Captured Tanzhou, they made a windfall!" Tanzhou's century-old savings are more abundant than Shudi, and they are all in their hands! ”

"Mrs. Qi likes Nanzhu, you pick out a hundred flawless pearls and send them to the palace today; Rong Mo, Zhou Siyu and others also sent twelve southern pearls each, and said that these were all brought back from Jinling, and thanked them for their hard work in preparing for marriage over the years, "Changxiang Marquis Wang Yong counted the quantity and quality of this batch of pearls, and immediately asked Qingyang to directly bring the best batch of pearls and jades into the palace to dot them, and said, "Qi Lun likes to gamble on Liubo, so I will go to meet his two gambling friends!" ”

Mrs. Qi was favored, so she was naturally suspicious and rejected by Concubine Zhao Hui, and Mrs. Qi had nurturing feelings in Qingyang, so Qi Lun and Mrs. Qi's brother and sister were the first objects to be wooed by Changxiang Hou Wang Yong.

It's just that in the past few years, Wang Yong, the Marquis of Changxiang, wanted to keep his head in obscurity, and at the same time, he couldn't get enough attractive benefits to win over, so his relationship with the Qi family was also average.

Qingyang can directly enter the palace and give 100 pieces of the best Hepu beads to Mrs. Qi to thank for her nurturing, but Wang Yong, the Marquis of Changxiang, wants to send 50,000 or 60,000 yuan of goods to Qi Lun, the privy deputy envoy, but he still has to pay attention to some skills; It's too naked, Qi Lun may feel hot.

In addition to Mrs. Qi, Qi Lun's brothers and sisters, and a few palace officials and eunuchs in the palace who can show their faces in front of their father, Wang Yong, the Marquis of Changxiang, sorted out a list of more than 20 people who need to be focused on, and they have been visited in place in the past two days......

"Sending the hangover soup over, Changxiang Marquis Wang Yong drank it all with only a trace of hesitation, but he was also a little bold, and it was not in vain that you helped him so much; It's a pity that I couldn't see him open the food box with my own eyes, otherwise, it would have been very exciting! ”

Feng Yi saw that there was no one else in the room, so he casually pulled a chair and sat down, talking about the situation when he went to Changxiang Hou's Mansion to deliver hangover soup, and was quite regretful, and asked Han Qian, "Why don't you hand over these pearls and jades to Changxiang Hou yourself?" Or, who Changxianghou needs to bribe, we will handle it for him, and we can collect a little more favor! ”

Han Qian stood in front of the window, looking at the snow in the courtyard, he was still thinking about the letter sent by Feng Yi last night, but it was a letter sent by Feng Yi from Jinling a month ago, and it seemed to be calm at that time, but it made Han Qian even more worried about the situation in Jinling at this time.

However, thinking that he was thousands of miles away, it would take at least a month for the letter to be delivered, and no matter how worried he was, he still had to deal with the affairs of Shudu first.

Han Qian turned around and explained to Feng Yi:

"Wang Jian, the lord of Shu, is not so easy to deceive, there are some things in Shu that we can interfere less, so we must interfere as little as possible; Especially the people around Wang Jian, the lord of Shu, try not to contact too much and too deeply. ”

Unexpectedly, Han Qian had this consideration, Feng Yi pondered for a while, and said: "You still think deeply, no wonder you were better than me from the beginning." ”

"Do you need to ask?" Han Qian said with a smile.

Feng Yi said again: "Having said that, the Marquis of Changxiang is the prince of the country, and his father has dominated Shuzhong for some years, why is he still poor like this?" is just such a little money, how many people can Changxianghou use to win over him to help him? ”

Seeing that Feng Yi thought that the first batch of jewels worth three or four hundred thousand yuan might not be able to do anything, Han Qian laughed and said:

"Your Feng family has mastered the Jianghuai wealth in the past dynasty, and it is only after a hundred years of accumulation that you have such a big family business, so you can cultivate a gentleman who doesn't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil, and salt. Xuanzong and Suzong of the previous dynasty avoided disasters in Sichuan and Shu twice, don't say it, you calculate, Zhaozong and Xizong Emperors, how many wars broke out in Sichuan and Shu? In the past, Shu was extremely rich, even above Jianghuai, but even if the wealthy clans of Liangchuan had accumulated, after decades of uninterrupted war, they were all destroyed, and Liangchuan had only been recuperating in the hands of Wang Jian for more than ten years, and the people had barely recovered to the peak of the previous dynasty. Now Wang Jian wants to raise tens of thousands of elite Shu troops according to Shu, in addition to the land he has taken from the old feudal tycoon, he doesn't have much food left to reward his courtiers, and the annual reward is more than our Da Chu - think about it, when His Royal Highness just left the palace and went to the palace, how much greetings he had? ”

The atmosphere of Shu is extravagant, but it cannot be compared with the heyday of the previous dynasty.

At the same time, the lord of Shu Wang built a frugal life, and the courtiers of Shu, including the Marquis of Changxiang, were also living tightly, Han Qian privately brought over the jewelry and goods worth eight or nine hundred thousand yuan this time, even if he temporarily divided forty percent to the Marquis of Changxiang, he could still buy a group of people.

Anyway, this is the public money allocated to him by the third prince, and Han Qian is not distressed when he spends it.

Seeing that Feng Yi was becoming more and more capable, behind the usual playful games, his mind was becoming more and more stable, in addition to the poisoning of Emperor Tianyou and his suggestion that the three princes stand by and watch, Han Qian had almost told him about their deeper intentions to make Shu this time in the past two days; Even the matter of the Divine Tomb Division, there is no need to hide it from him.

This is also convenient for Feng Yi to be more flexible and flexible when he comes into contact with Guo Rong, Changxiang Hou Wang Yong and others.

In addition, don't say that the Marquis of Qingjiang will send someone to keep an eye on him, Han Qian, as a greeting envoy, has a more sensitive identity than Guo Rong.

He wanted to get out of Jinhualou Nanyuan, and the officials of Honglu Temple almost had to keep an eye on him, except for very limited places such as the Changxiang Hou Mansion, he really didn't have more space for free activities in Shudu.

Feng Yi, as Han Qian's retinue without an official body, is still relatively convenient to enter and exit.

Han Qian would also ask Feng Yi to take advantage of this time to frequently haunt the wine shops and brothels in Shudu, contact the children of the official eunuchs and low-level officials of Shu, tap the manpower that can be bought, and hand it over to Guo and them to develop slowly.

The number of elite scouts and secret agents that Jinyunlou can really send into Shu is extremely limited after all, but even if fifty or sixty elite scouts and elite spies are sent, this manpower is far from enough to form an intelligence network covering Shu.

The collection of intelligence is more about developing eyelines in the local area, and can even secretly support some gang forces or business gangs that are still in the embryonic state of the world.
