Chapter 107: Planning

What Ye Xun scavenged is a lot that can be described? The Li family's belongings, plus the silver taels forcibly taken from Wang Dengku, add up to almost one million taels.

This number must not be known to others, and Ye Xun still has to raise an army, and these silver taels are definitely not enough.

But Ye Xun also knows that there is no fast robbery of any business, but this is not a long-term thing after all, and in the bitter cold land of Liaodong, there are only a few rich families, so you can't rob them one by one, right?

So there must be a long-term way to make money, taking over the Wang family's business is only one of them, Ye Xun has ordered someone to find Altan on the way back, the grassland is a big market, as long as it is properly controlled, it can also bring endless wealth to Ye Xun.

Although Ye Xun trusts Cheng Yu a lot, but now is not the time to tell him everything, once the court knows that Ye Xun uses his own money to raise the army, even if Wanli favors Ye Xun again, in the face of such a major event, Wanli will never be ambiguous.

followed Xiong Tingbi into Shenyang, and then refused the banquet of the civil and military officials of Liaodong on the grounds of physical discomfort, but the gifts were all accepted as ordered, and none of them were left behind.

No one is perfect, only by letting Wanli know that Ye Xun is indeed a greedy person will he trust him more.

Although Ye Xun could not personally attend the banquet of the civil and military forces, in order to cultivate Cheng Yu's prestige and status in Liaodong, he still asked Cheng Yu to attend for him and let Liang Zhen serve as a guard.

Now everyone knows that Liang Zhen is Ye Xun's personal captain, and Liang Zhen accompanied Cheng Yu to attend the banquet, which is also telling the civil and military officials in Liaodong in disguise that this Cheng Yu is Ye Xun's most trusted person.

The weather is getting warmer and darker and darker late.

Ye Xun is an idle person, after lunch, let the Hua sisters make him a pot of tea, and then set up a table in the courtyard, and then ordered someone to invite Li Wen over.

Since this magic stick had a long talk with Ye Xun, he has become more low-key, usually hiding in the carriage, except for eating and going to the toilet, he usually can't see the shadow at all, and he doesn't know what he is doing in the carriage every day.

"My father-in-law is so interested!"

Li Wen sat down under Ye Xun with some familiarity, then took a sip of the tea prepared for him, clicked his lips, and said with a disdainful expression: "The dignified Liaodong town guard, do you use this kind of tea to entertain guests?" ”

Ye Xun was already a little immune to this godly chattering guy, and said with a smile: "Just drink it, I didn't say anything, you have so many things?" ”

Li Wen pursed his lips, looked left and right, and said, "Father-in-law, do you have any troubles that need to be resolved?" ”

"You can't be modest, I haven't told anyone, don't be too smart, okay?"

Li Wen: "Hey, hey! smiled and said: "You won't kill me, you will kill it early, and besides, I also said that I am really here to help you"

Ye Xun rolled his eyes, he almost didn't kill Lao Tzu, this is also called helping me?

"If my father-in-law is killed by me, it means that my father-in-law is not the person I am waiting for, and now my father-in-law is still sitting here unharmed, which means that my father-in-law is indeed the one who is destined to return."

Ye Xun was taken aback, the word "destiny" can also be said nonsense? Do you want to kill Lao Tzu in this way?

I just wanted to reprimand Li Wen for not talking nonsense, but I saw that Li Wen's face turned pale, and said: "If my father-in-law wants to start a business in Liaodong, the most inseparable thing is soldiers, and where does this soldier come from?" If the father-in-law recruits troops with great fanfare, the court will inevitably interfere and supervise, and in the end, if it is not good, it will make a wedding dress for the court, so if this soldier is to be raised, he must change his method."

When Li Wen said this, he suddenly smiled and said, "If I guessed correctly, my father-in-law should already have an idea in his heart, right?" ”

Ye Xun looked at Li Wen quietly, he didn't say anything for a long time, it can be said that Li Wen's words have spoken to his heart, but can this person not be so demonic?

The eunuchs were not directly in charge of the army, let alone recruiting soldiers, and even if the army was expanded on the grounds of war needs, the imperial court would inevitably hinder it.

As Li Wen said, Ye Xun wanted an army that was completely under his command, not a wedding dress for the Ming court.

The military system of the Ming Dynasty has begun to rot from the roots, and no matter how elite the army is, it will be tossed and scattered.

Ye Xun never thought of being an emperor, not that he had no ambitions, but that his identity was not allowed, and at the same time, he knew that the Zhu dynasty of the Ming Dynasty had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, even if Ye Xun forcibly overthrew him by force, the final result would inevitably be chaos in the world.

Ye Xun's final idea was to still respect the Zhu family as orthodox, and then take the power into his own hands, and after taking power, he would introduce some advanced social systems in later generations to achieve the dream of enriching the people, strengthening the army, and strengthening the country.

Although this dream is far away, it is becoming clearer and clearer in Ye Xun's heart, and it can also be said to point out the direction of his struggle.

This Li Wen seems to be cynical, but he seems to know everything, just now Ye Xun suddenly had an idea, could this guy also come from time travel?

Seeing Ye Xun's eyes flickering, Li Wen suddenly sighed: "Do you want to kill me again?" Actually, I'm really here to help you, how can you believe it? ”

"First, keep your mouth shut, and second, I want you to go to Hetuala"

Li Wen was not frightened by Ye Xun's cold tone, nodded and said: "I have leaked too many heavenly secrets, I won't live long, you don't need to worry about what I will leak, and people like me are not suitable to be spies, so you'd better hire another master."

It seems that it is the first time that someone has rejected Ye Xun so directly, and Ye Xun is angry.

"You guy can't do this, you can't do that, do you want to eat white food at my place?"

"Hey, hey! Someone wants to invite me to eat white food, but I still don't go! So be it! I'll give you another idea, so that you will feel that you have not been wronged by raising me."

"Actually, it's just a few words, that is, to raise the self-respect of the Kou and turn the whole into zero"

After Li Wen finished speaking, he stood up and gave alms, and when he walked to the door, he said: "When it is time to go, I will naturally leave, and I will not say goodbye to you."

Looking at Li Wenyuan's back, Ye Xun can be said to be full of mush, what is the origin of this guy? I know what I think in my heart, and even what kind of martial arts I am practicing, otherwise I won't say that I have a son and daughter.

I remember that there are indeed several records in the history books that know astronomy and geography; I know the cattle man for 500 years and 500 years later, but that's just a legend, I'm afraid no one has really seen it at all.

Could it be that this is also a reckless man of God?

Because he came through time, Ye Xun is also a little suspicious now.

Shaking your head, don't think about that for now, do the things in front of you well, and talk about other things later.

"Raise your own weight and turn the whole into zero"

Silently reciting the eight words left by Li Wen when he left, Ye Xun's brows couldn't help frowning, give me such an idea, I'm afraid this person's mind is not simple...
