Yan Zhu was very comfortable, and suddenly felt that Su Ren was a lucky general, since he came to Huiji, everything seemed to have become beautiful, the newly built Huiji City was going on day by day, if there were enough people, maybe he would be able to move in before the year. The matter of the county soldiers was also resolved, Huang Qi died, and as soon as Su Yi left, he could take it over logically. What makes Yan Zhu happiest is that he wiped out Minyue, and such a great achievement simply fell from the sky.

Yan Zhu leaned comfortably on the low couch, tasting the wine brought from Shu County by the merchants of Shu County, one on each side of the two beautiful courtesans, peeled the fresh lychees and put them into his mouth, which was really delicious and juicy. I have been in the club for so many years, and it is the first time that I feel that lychees are so delicious.

Hu Cao held the account book and reported the accounts to Yan Zhu word by word: "A total of 32,428 yuan of taxes were collected this month, of which 10,000 and 47 yuan were collected in commercial taxes, and salt and iron were not counted, and what needed to be paid was 18,000 yuan, and the surplus was ......."

Yan Zhu waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, needless to say, take out three hundred dollars and send them to the Changshi Mansion, although we have collected a lot during this time, we have not paid a single money for many major events, if you put it in the past, let alone 30,000 yuan, even 300,000 yuan is not enough to repair the city and destroy Minyue peacefully." ”

"No!" Hu Cao hurriedly agreed, bowed and retreated.

Yan Zhu spit out the lychee kernel in his mouth: "Bing Cao, can the people that Su Changshi wants be ready?" The dry season is about to begin, and the people are also idle, so make it clear to them that Su Changshi uses them to give money, and they are hired laborers, not errand laborers. ”

Bing Cao hurriedly stood up: "Back to Taishou, this matter has been arranged, the 1,000 people sent to Shaping in advance have been in place, and the 500 people who are going to be sent to various county roads this time are preparing, and they can't miss Su Changshi's matter." ”

"That's good!" Yan Zhu turned over and sat up: "Su Changshi is all for us to know, originally you have to do these things, with Su Changshi doing it for you, you don't have to spend your money, so you keep your eyes open, if anyone makes a mess, don't say that Su Changshi is unhappy, Ben Taishou will also be very angry." ”

"The subordinates don't dare!" The crowd is submissive.

Yan Zhu glanced around with his two eyes, was very satisfied with the performance of his subordinates, and said: "The city must maintain the market, those businessmen from Shu County and Su Changshi have something to do with each other, and they must not be neglected; There is also Gong Cao, the matter of shipbuilding craftsmen is also tightened, before Su Changshi comes back, the craftsman must be found, and he must not make a mistake! With Su Changshi's temperament, if you do things well, he will never treat you badly! ”

"No, the subordinates will do their best."

Yan Zhu nodded and waved his hand to signal that everyone could go down. Lying on the courtesan's lap again, a lychee was put into Yan Suke's mouth at the right time. Looking at the group of Cao Rafter in each room leaving the lobby, the housekeeper standing next to Yan Zhu rolled his eyes: "Taishou, are we too ...... to Su Changshi?"

Yan Zhu smiled: "Old Wu, don't be so stingy, you know what Su Ren will do when we come, since he wants to do something, let him do it, if he does it well, I can get some light, and if I don't do it well, there will be the emperor on top, as far as we don't make trouble, everything is going well, not only will I make a good impression in front of His Majesty, but I can also have some benefits, a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, why not?" ”

"I'm afraid that in the long run, I'm afraid that no one will listen to you anymore."

"I also thought about this, and then I figured it out, Su Ren came to us to take refuge, and the second is that the emperor wants to see if Su Ren is a usable talent, now it seems that Su Ren is a talent, you look at the latest next year, Su Ren will return to Chang'an, and then this will be ours, so what's the harm in letting him jump for a year?"

The housekeeper Lao Wu nodded again and again: "What Taishou said is that I am too worried." ”

Yan Zhu looked very open, thought well, and everything was developing in the direction of Yan Suke's favor. No matter how great Su Ren's exploits are in Huiji, Yan Zhu, as the Huiji Taishou, gets the most benefits. Therefore, Yan Zhu tried his best to cooperate with Su Ren's requirements, as long as it was what Su Ren wanted, Yan Zhu met everything, except for money. Besides, he Yan Zhu really has no money.

Su Ren's generous spending was like running water, and he got some of the more to extinguish Minyue, which seemed to be a lot, but after Cui Jiuming finished settling the account, he almost vomited blood and died. The money spent in front is made up, but what happens to the money in the back? And more is needed!

Lao Wang glanced at Cui Jiuming: "Shaodong, if you continue to spend like this, all the ones you get back from Minyue this time will have to be compensated!" Did you ask Mr. Su to think of a way? ”

"Huh!" Cui Jiuming laughed twice: "Do you think he is rich?" Even if you sell him, you won't be able to get back so much money. ”

"What then? And let those businessmen pay for it? I'm afraid it won't work this time, they must not be stupid people, before Mr. Su has no troops into Lingnan, they will definitely not take another money out. ”

"Humph! How dare they? We have also made a lot of money over the years, and Su Ren is in trouble at this time, if you don't want to pay money, you will quit the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce! ”

"This ......"

Cui Jiuming waved his hand impatiently: "You just told them that Su Ren worked so hard this time to go back to Chang'an, as long as we leave this ghost place, we can make money wherever we go, and the deficit here can be completely made up, go ahead." ”

Lao Wang was very helpless, shook his head and sighed and retreated, and continued to persuade the merchants. Cui Jiuming stayed in the house alone for a long time, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided that Su Ren should know about this matter, at least let Su Ren know in his heart. It's easy to do anything if you have money, but it's not so smooth to do anything without money.

Riding a horse and thinking all the way, there is still no good way to think about it all the way, unless Su Ren leads his troops to destroy a He Yue again, then he may be able to hold out for a few months, but what about a few months later? Is it possible to send troops again? There are only 10,000 soldiers in Huiji County, and this time to attack Minyue, it all depends on Su Ren's strategy and bombs, or the loss of 30%, and it is difficult to say whether he can come back next time.

Cui Jiuming, who looked tired, got into Su Ren's tent. Su Ren was discussing with Li Danghu, Wei Qing, and Gongsun He about dividing troops for defense. Although it is a civil strife among the Vietnamese people, no one can say whether it will spread to the Han region, so it is necessary to take precautions in advance.

Seeing Cui Jiuming come in, Gongsun He said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Cui went to Minyue for a trip, and he was obviously thin!" It seems that this weight loss is very useful, and you can definitely lose weight by going a few more times. ”

Cui Jiuming gave a salute to a few people, with a smile like a professional businessman on his face, but he couldn't hide the helplessness in his heart: "Several generals are discussing things, it was Cui who was abrupt, I will come back later." ”

Su Ren hurriedly stopped Cui Jiuming: "It's okay, we're done, do you have something?" ”

"It's not a big deal."

"Do you have money and don't know how to spend it, or do you want to send money to my eldest brother?" Hawking likes to joke with Cui Jiuming the most, this fat man has a very good personality, and he won't care what you say.

Su Ren saw that Cui Jiuming was in trouble, and said to a few people: "Just do what we say, strict monitoring cannot be relaxed, if someone really comes, you must catch it, otherwise it will become a disaster." ”

Li Danghu nodded, glanced at a few people, and took them out. As soon as a few people left, Cui Jiuming sat on the chair, let out a sigh of relief, casually threw the bamboo slip in his hand to Su Ren's desk, and turned around to find the kettle and teacup.

Su Ren smiled: "Not happy? I don't owe you any money! ”

"Huh! You're really right this time, you not only owe me money, but you owe me a lot. Cui Jiuming poured water for himself: "That's the account book, just look at it yourself." ”

Su Ren unfolded the bamboo slip in front of him and looked at it for a long time: "How can this be?" ”

Cui Jiuming smiled helplessly: "That's it, it looks like there is a surplus now, but the follow-up materials are already on the way, and you have to give money as soon as you arrive, that's a lot of money, I have asked Lao Wang to lobby those merchants, hoping that they can take out a little more, even if they give it will not be much, but don't worry, I have a way, that is, to tell you, so that you can have moderation when you spend money again." ”

"What can you do?"

Cui Jiuming took a sip of water and said helplessly: "My father has already closed Zitong's business a little, and Chang'an only has a few tubas left, and it should be okay to find someone to borrow some." ”

Su Ren was moved for a moment, and he didn't know what to say for a while: "Cui Lao shopkeeper ...... him"

"Oh, who let me get on your thief ship!"

Su Ren was amused by Cui Jiuming's words, looked left and right, and came to Cui Jiuming: "Immediately write to tell Cui Lao Shopkeeper that those shops in your house can't be sold, and I have a way to deal with money." ”

"You? They say you're rich, but I know ......."

"It's not my money! Do you remember Liujiazhai? ”

Cui Jiuming fell into deep thought: "Are you talking about Liu Jiazhai of the Sword Pavilion?" ”

Su Ren nodded.

"What do you want to move?"

"Hmmm! Since it has reached this kind of share, there is no need to keep it anymore, if the money is not spent, it is broken copper and iron, and only when it is spent can it be called money! ”

"But that's King Xiang's wealth, if we don't go through Chongxu Dao Chang and Extermination Master, will we use ......it?"

"It doesn't matter, that money is the people's fat and people's ointment, and now it's not a big deal for us to use it on the people, if they ask, I'll bear it."

"Do you really want to use it?"

Su Ren Zheng nodded: "The Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce is not so much the Shuzhong businessman's, but ours, as long as the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce is not dispersed, there will be opportunities to make money in the future, just when we are temporarily borrowed, and then pay it back in the future, I am good at making money, I am also good at spending money, as long as the direction of investment is right, the return received is by no means ten times and a hundred times, the money will move sooner or later, I don't care about sooner or later." ”

Cui Jiuming thought for a while: "Although I don't know what other plans you have, I still feel that I have to talk to the two old men, I will go back to Shu County in the afternoon, as long as the two old men agree, I will bring the money." ”

"It's good!" Su Ren returned to the table, rummaged through a pile of silk silks for a while, found a piece, and handed it to Cui Jiuming: "If the two old men don't agree, show them this thing, and they should agree." ”
