Chapter Twenty-Three: Usefulness

That's right, when Xuan Shijing knew that he couldn't be an idle marquis's son, he set his sights on it bigger, when all the magnates were staring at Chang'an, he had learned to understand the entire Tang Dynasty, when the adults in the court looked at the Tang Dynasty, Xuan Shijing had already set his sights on the surrounding countries, and when the military generals wanted to forge ahead and shock the surroundings, Xuan Shijing was thinking about whether to form a fleet to open up a new world.

The land of Datang is vast, although this is the case, but it has been more than a thousand years to feed generation after generation, and there are always a number of resources in their own country, so it is better to go to the outside world to get some back, as for these local treasures, leave some for future generations.

"Master Xie's teachings." Although the money pile was taken a nap by Xuan Shijing's words, the general meaning of the money pile is understood, that is, to save yourself those unnecessary worries, the outside world is very big, and the place where we are is very small

Xuan Shijing waved his hand, signaling that the money pile could go and get busy.

The money pile bowed and retired.

Watching the money pile go downstairs, Xuan Shijing smiled, then sat on the chair again, picked up the two letters sent by the money pile, and opened them.

One is the news sent back by the Qiandui faction in Li Yuanjing's mansion in Chang'an, and the other is the news about the manpower in Jingzhou.

After a rough look, Xuan Shijing touched his chin and said with a smile: "It's really interesting, Gao Jun." ”

"The subordinates are here." Gao Jun stood behind the oath Jin and bowed.

"Send a few people to Jingzhou to investigate Li Yuanjing's local situation." Xuan Shijing said.

The investigation of Li Yuanjing can not let the local people in Jingzhou investigate, it is best to be a person with a face, so that the probability of leakage will be small, and the people who are begging for a living on the mountain in Jingzhou are dragging their families with their mouths, and it is better to be less involved in this kind of thing, and the transfer of people from Jingzhou to Xiangzhou is also taken into account, if it is really done in Jingzhou according to the previous plan, all the retreats must be arranged, including some old and young on the mountain, the action is bound to be big, and now it is good, and the people will be transferred to Xiangzhou, After finishing this vote and returning to Jingzhou, I am afraid that Li Yuanjing would never have imagined that it was the people in his own fiefdom who were ruthless to him.

The robbed money was naturally transported back to Chang'an by the manpower arranged by Chang'an, and Xuan Shijing thought about it, so he asked the Hanzhong Chamber of Commerce of the Shengtang Group to go to Xiangzhou in the name of purchasing New Year's goods for Chang'an Xungui

Cheng Mansion, Qin Mansion, Li Mansion, plus a Dongshan Hou Mansion, the three purchased New Year's goods, who dares to look carefully along the way?

Even Li Yuanjing didn't dare to easily offend Cheng Yanjin and Li Xiaogong and others, not to mention that Li Xiaogong was still his uncle.

In this way, the Hou Mansion has a Xuanwu hug for nothing.

Thinking of this, Xuan Shijing couldn't help but smile.

"Yes." Gao Jun responded.

"Let's focus on investigating whether Li Yuanjing has raised an army in Jingzhou." Xuan Shijing said indifferently.

It stands to reason that at this time, Li Yuanjing wants to go back to Chang'an for the New Year, so it is naturally most appropriate to leave this money in Chang'an to buy people's hearts, but why would he want to transport it to Xiangzhou to investigate in person? Such a large sum of money, and it is all copper money, and it has not been exchanged for other hard currency, it is transported over in such an original way, and there must be something strange in it.

If it is used for gifts, the copper money will look too vulgar, I heard the money pile say that Li Yuanjing also has a lot of business in the south, and the money earned by those businesses is definitely enough for his expenses in the fiefdom, if it is said that this money is used to make up for some shortfalls in the business, then it is impossible to say, in business matters, there are few things that can be hidden from the money pile, not to mention Li Yuanjing, the key object of care, now the money pile only needs to sit in the office on the fourth floor of Xuanwu every day, Looking at the news and account books handed over by the shopkeepers of all parties is enough to control any news from any place where the Houfu Chamber of Commerce in Datang goes, if there is an abnormality in the business of Li Yuanjing's mansion, the most excited thing is probably the money pile, because it means that the money pile can take over a spread stall with a very small price.

If it is said that this Tang Dynasty likes Li Yuanjing the most, I am afraid it is none other than Qiandui, and Qiandui's liking for Li Yuanjing is probably more than Li Yuan's love for Li Yuanjing.

In the impression of the money pile, this Li Yuanjing is just four words, stupid people and a lot of money.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the form of the Tang Dynasty in recent years, among many of Li Yuanjing's subordinates, there are many people who have no hope for Li Yuanjing to seize the throne, and they have begun to get by by doing things, so they have an opportunity to take advantage of the money.

Li Yuanjing's business in the south is not abnormal, so in Xuan Shijing's opinion, it is very likely that this batch of money is shipped out to distribute military salaries to the army.

The cost of raising an army is not what Li Yuanjing's fiefdom income and his business income can support, although the business of Chang'an's Jubaolou is still thriving, but under the operation of the money pile, it is also a little worse than before, because the money is piled on the opposite side of the treasure building, and a gambling house has also been opened, and mahjong made by Xuan Shijing has also been introduced!

Mahjong comes out, who competes with each other.

Of course, after Xuan Shijing knew, he also got some new things for the money pile, such as fried gold flowers, fighting landlords, blackjack and the like, which made the gambling house opened by the money pile prosperous.

It is conceivable that once the people sent by Gao Jun find out Li Yuanjing's army, it will be a big bargaining chip to take down Li Yuanjing's bone.

What does a prince who is outside the vassal want to raise heavy soldiers under his hands? Hunt? I'm afraid that even Li Yuanjing himself doesn't believe it.

"Does the little marquis suspect that King Jing transported this batch of money back to pay the army?" Gao Jun said.

"That's right, this amount of money is not a small amount, plus the money he made in the Jiangnan business, not only does he have food, but I'm afraid he also has wealth." Xuan Shijing smiled: "I'm looking forward to it, I don't know how Li Yuanjing will react when he finds out that this batch of money has been robbed under his nose." ”

Speaking of this, Xuan Shijing suddenly thought of an idea, perhaps, things could be more interesting.

"Gao Jun, I will leave this matter to you and the money pile to do together, you take the caravan from Chang'an, go to Xiangzhou in person, prepare some boxes that are exactly the same as those boxes containing money, put two more stones in them, and transport them to Xiangzhou as goods, when the time comes"

"Steal beams and change pillars!" Gao Jun's eyes lit up: "Find an opportunity to swap these boxes with those boxes containing money, so that you can buy some time for deployment." ”

"That's right." Xuan Shijing said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
