As soon as the prince left, everyone surrounded him again, and Gao Xun hurriedly asked:

"Dasi Nong, the king has a will."

"There is no will for the time being, but the king ordered all divisions to prepare for the bidding in three days, and each division will select and transfer officials who are proficient in jade and jewelry as soon as possible, don't be deceived."

"In this way, the gold and silver that has already arrived is not the final quota."

"Well, it's not."

Bai Liyan affirmed, and said one after another:

"Yongxing Hou, except for ivory and gems, the people of Jin Xuedi should not need much for other goods."

"Oh, what do you mean, my lord?"

"At present, the shortage of gold and silver is in vogue, but the rest of the house has not been completely pushed away, and the gold and silver of the Jinxuedi people have not yet arrived, if they buy their goods on a large scale, in case there are any financial mistakes in the future, it is not cost-effective."

"Huh...... At this time, the king and Ben Hou knew in their hearts that Lord Nuo could rest assured. ”

Nuo Yiyan was worried that the gold and silver that had just arrived and had not yet been hot would soon be spent because of the purchase of the goods of the Jinxuedi people, and the trade surplus that would eventually be retained in the treasury would not be too much, and it would not be able to cope with the financial deficit caused by the shortage of gold and silver.

This concern is not unreasonable, but it is also unfounded. After all, the demand of the Jinxuedi people is greater than the demand for their commodities in the Central Plains, and the trade surplus of the Central Plains is an inevitable result. In addition, Jin Xuedi people have a large market in the Central Plains, and their unique mountain goods, spices, furs, jewelry, herbs, etc., are all odd goods and in-demand goods, and they can be sold immediately after purchase, and they can also earn extra gold, silver and copper coins.

Nuo Yiyan's thinking is still stuck in the traditional thinking of no surplus and loss, and he does not know how to adapt transactions and trade flows to maximize profits.

After seven days of bidding, the Jin Kingdom gained a lot, Yin Yangjun Fang Bo, Jin envoy Ma Zhongning and others gathered in the prince's mansion to report the bidding results to Xihuan.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, so far, the transaction has been so much, and the minister has sent an urgent express to Pingtang to inform the king of the news, and when the goods arrive, the transaction with the barbarians can be completed."

Ma Zhongning said angrily, the joy on his face was overflowing, and then Xihuan asked:

"When will the gold and silver caravans of the Jin Xuedi people arrive in Xianguo?"

"If the journey to Zhiguo goes well, it will be two months at the earliest, maybe later."

"But the current situation is probably less than two months before the war starts, and it is not a good thing if the transaction is interrupted."

"The princess is worried about the country." Ji Jinsheng said.

"The eldest grandson made a profit of more than 300,000 inches of gold and silver coins, and Wei Guo only got less than 300,000 yuan, Bo Yuanjun and King Xian secretly made peace, Wei Guo has been betrayed by Liang State, and now under the financial and national strength, Wei Guo will never sit back and wait for the decline of national strength, and the sooner the war starts, the more beneficial it will be. This palace looks at it, within three or two months at the earliest, and it will not drag on until the end of this year at the latest, and there will be a war. ”

Xihuan's political intuition is extremely sensitive, the profit of Changsun State is higher than that of Liang State, second only to Xianguo, Zhiguo and Jin State are ranked fourth and fifth respectively, even if the transaction volume of Song and Xu is much more than that of Weiguo, when all countries benefit, Wei Guo, who did not benefit, actually lost.

With the passage of time, the economic strength of other princes will catch up with or even catch up, and the longer it drags on, the faster the depreciation of the national strength of the country.

After thinking about it, Xihuan looked at Uncle Fang:

"Uncle, what is the latest news between the eldest grandson and the businessman?"

"It's all about trading, and I haven't found anyone worried about provoking a fight."

"Yes, it seems that the eldest grandson envoy can really sit still, General Ji."

"Your subordinates are here, what does Your Highness command?"

"You go to the Changsun Pavilion and let me know, so as not to be caught off guard by the defense of the country."

"Your Highness, it is not appropriate for Her Royal Highness the Princess to get involved in diplomatic matters. Yue Ling is acting on behalf of the king, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the king to explain. ”

Xihuan turned to Ma Zhongning and said:

"What do you think?"

The minister agreed with General Ji's assertion that this matter should not be brought forward by Her Royal Highness the Princess. And now the princes come and go frequently, it is difficult to say that the news will not leak, in case it is known by Wei Guo, Wei Guo will also be angry with me Jin Guo, this is really not appropriate, the princess still only does not know as well. ”

"Then I will see that the defense of the country will preemptively defeat the eldest grandson, and then the division will advance eastward and then attack the palace husband."

Xihuan said angrily, a look of displeasure jumped on her face, her original intention was not to show the police chief grandson, but she didn't want to take over Xianguo in the future, and what she got was a mess.

At this time, Ji Jinsheng said:

"Your Highness, my subordinates think that warning or not warning cannot change the result of Weiguo's attack on the eldest grandson, since it can't be changed, it is better to prepare early, and it may be profitable."

"Defending the country to attack the eldest grandson, my Jin country has neither land to obtain, nor interests to share, if you send troops, you have to sacrifice the blood of my Jin country's soldiers, what profit can it be."

"If the eldest grandson goes to war with Wei, the eldest grandson will inevitably be defeated, and if he loses the enemy, he will ask for help from my Jin Kingdom, and it is not impossible to make some deals in exchange for our country to send troops."

"Yes, General Ji is right." Fang Bo agreed, took two steps forward and said: "If the eldest grandson is defeated, he will definitely ask my nephew for help, then it is one thing to send troops, one thing to trade, one yard to one yard, but after all, it is the same thing, bring the money first, and everything else is easy to discuss." ”

"Bengong understands that General Ji wants to fatten his own family first, so as to make war money. When the defense of the country is almost cleaned up, it will be unprofitable. At that time, we will send troops again to gain fame and fortune. ”

"What His Royal Highness said is extremely true, the defense of the country must not want to start a war with the princes at the same time, but now the internal troubles are worse than the outside, there is no time to intervene in the war, and the Xian country has no will to go to war, and the defense of the country is the most powerful to go to war only at this time, since all countries have no will to go to war, my Jin country rashly intervenes, but there is a possibility of being betrayed by other countries, so it is not rashly involved in the war.

It is better to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, first get some benefits from the eldest grandson country, and wait until the situation in various countries is clear in a year or two, and then it is not too late to send troops to intervene. ”

"Okay, uncle, step up the business with the eldest grandson as soon as possible, send the people over first, the goods are ready, and when the war is together, I can send it to the eldest grandson at any time."

"Don't worry, niece, my uncle understands it in his heart, hahaha......"

That night, Bailiyan was busy until late at night before returning home, and Zhou Kong entertained Huang Che in the front hall of the atrium until Bailiyan returned home.

"General Huang, everything is done."

"Don't worry, Master Hou, it's not the first time we've done this, we don't have any mercy on those eye-opening things in the royal family's city, and we won't miss it."

"I'm relieved of this, but if I am caught and hurt my life, can your brothers bear it?"

"My brothers have all died together, and I have told them all, and if they are caught, they will know how to speak. There are many debts in this world, and people often make mistakes. ”

Huang Che swore that he was playing the package ticket, then picked up the wine bowl and put it down to his stomach, wiped his greasy mouth and said:

"It's not too early, let's go first."

"Well, be careful on the road, don't ride a horse, take my carriage back to the pavilion."

"Alright, take your leave."

Huang Che got up and raised his hand to salute, and then left the Hou Mansion in a leisurely manner.

After he left, Zhou Kong hurriedly asked:

"What Huang Che said to you, how can I not hear it right."

"The secret of heaven must not be leaked, Madame will know in a few days." Bai Liyan said perfunctorily, and then said again: "Did Fu'er go home today?" ”

"No, I haven't come back at my mother's house, but I let Sui Hu carry a message, and let Hou Ye go to the house when I have time."

The auction transaction only gets the book funds, and the spot funds are still on the way to the south. Bailiyan sent a fleet half a month earlier, and Mooni sent people with letters to Daozhi and Xu to pick up his caravan to and from the Central Plains, so as to speed up the transshipment of goods and funds.

At the same time, in the Baicui Building, the cup is changed for the paper drunk gold fan, Bo Yuanjun, the eldest grandson envoy invited guests and friends to celebrate the harvest of the transaction here, the guests came from all over the world, both the princes and nobles from afar, and the wealthy businessmen from all over the world, all kinds of people gathered here, and the banquet lasted until the early hours of the morning before dispersing.

The envoy of the eldest grandson got into the carriage drunken with a wine hiccup, and slowly returned to the pavilion under the escort on the way, and passed by the patrol soldiers of the Sima Mansion of the Chengfu of Chenling City.

About two hundred steps further, on the top of the rows of houses on the right side of the street, dozens of black-clothed masked men looked at the procession of the eldest grandson's envoy with surprising eyes, and when the distance was reduced to the eaves, a whistle sounded, the air trembled in the darkness, and several fine fishing nets fell out of thin air in the dark night.

If you want to say that this fishing net is cast, it is called a professional Lisuo, one person casts the net and several people cooperate, impartially, no more, no less, and the Changsun people and horses who are slowly passing by under the house are all netted, and at the same time, another group of more than a dozen people are masked, jumping out of the front and back alleys, holding hemp ropes in pairs, and rushing straight to the Changsun guards.

"There's an assassin, quick, protect your lord!"

The eldest grandson shouted loudly, and was about to draw his sword, but he was covered by a fishing net, and in a moment a hemp rope swept by, sweeping all the horsemen to the ground, and none of the foot soldiers were caught in the fishing net and could not escape.

After a while, a shout came from the eaves:

"Brothers, it is natural to repay debts, these turtle grandsons are in debt and want to leave, but there is no door, give me a beating!"

"Understood!"

Everyone spoke in unison, jumped off the room and rushed up, scolding the eldest grandson soldiers on the ground with fists and feet without mercy, and did not forget to shout foul words in their mouths while doing their hands:

"Dog thing, I owe a prostitute woman, I bah!"

"Fight to the death!"

……

Because of being covered by fishing nets, the eldest grandson guards had no power to parry, and could only let them scold, at this time the eldest grandson envoy sitting in the car was still drunk and dreaming of death, and was quite arrogant when he was dragged out of the car:

"Blind your dogs, do you know who the envoy is!"

When the words fell, the masked man at the head said with pity:

"Lao Tzu doesn't care who you are, you have to pay back the debt. Beat me to death! ”

"How dare you...... Ah......h

Dare to say only half of the word, only to hear a miserable scream, the old fist has already fallen on the face of the eldest grandson envoy.

The beating did not last long, and for seven or eight minutes, shouts for help and arrest of the assassins came one after another, but no one came to the rescue. Until the end of the violence, a group of masked people walked away, and no shadow appeared, leaving only the eldest grandson who cried his father and called his mother.

At the same time, Ji Feng was not spared, he was sitting in a high-end four-wheeled carriage with shock absorbers that he bought when he visited Yongxing City a few days ago, and the carriage walked and walked, and the two wheels on the left side fell off at the same time, so the carriage fell on the road at a strange angle of 45 degrees.

When Li Yi heard the news, he rode a horse to the rescue, only to see Ji Feng crawling out of the carriage:

"Uncle, what's the matter, are you hurt?"

Ji Feng was shocked, and his heart was beating wildly:

"Car, car...... Such a good car is over, you are a hundred miles of swallow, you are so calculating......"

Li Yi listened inexplicably, and hurriedly said:

"Uncle, what does this have to do with my uncle, this car has always been good, and if it breaks, it will break."

"The car was bought from Bailiyan, how can he escape if something happens."

"But there is nothing to do with your uncle, besides, with such an obvious fatal move, my uncle would not have resorted to such clumsy means, this is far-fetched."

Ji Feng was stunned when he heard the news, and when he thought about it, he was right:

"That's right, what did he do to me, it won't do him half of the benefit if I die, could it really be just an accident?"

"Uncle, I think it's better to go. Wouldn't it be better to ask my uncle to find someone to repair tomorrow? ”

In fact, the shedding of these two wheels is extremely fast, and they must fall off at the same time, if one before one or one behind the other, it will have to be overturned. When a frightened horse is bound to gallop, it is difficult to say what the result will be.

At the same time, the violent incidents that occurred all over the city tonight sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and it was even more coincidental that none of them were bumped into by the Lingling patrol team, nor did they hear anyone calling for help, and because there was no 110 police call at the moment, let alone the night police system, no one was on duty at night in the Yamen, so the night patrol did not meet, and the violence dragged on until the next morning, and the victims flocked to the Sima Mansion of the city of Chenling last night.
