Chapter 0308 - Just for One Man

Zhang Yue led everyone into the city, asked his soldiers to take Zhang Quanxu to find a vacant mansion to live in first, accompanied Zan Jurun all the way to the front of the mansion, and asked Yang Xuanli to take Song Yaozhu and two family members to the back house of the mansion from the back side door.

The government is the handsome mansion of Shannan West Road, which is built tall and open, and the style is very great. During the Tang Dynasty, the capital of Chang'an was repeatedly broken by foreign enemies, and several generations of emperors took refuge in Xingyuan Mansion in the south, and it is said that this marshal's mansion was used as a line. The state government is in the west of the city, and after the abolition of the assassin history, there are only a few staff members such as observation judges, pushers, and inspectors, and now they are vacant and no one cares.

After entering the mansion, Zhang Yue sent someone to settle Zan Jurun's two entourages to live in the front hall hotel, took Zan Jurun to the back hall official room to sit down, found Feng Qianhou to accompany him, and called the soldiers to come in and serve tea. The informal meeting was not a meeting of the government council, and the three of them were more casual.

"The specifications of this government are a bit high!" Zan Jurun held the teacup and smiled, but did not say the second half of the sentence.

Of course, Zhang Yue understood the meaning of his words, so he smiled and said: "It's not comfortable to live here, it's easy to do things if there are subordinate officials, and the state government is all gone with Han Baozheng, and there is no one who is a small official, not even a messenger, and his eyes are black." ”

"Oh...... That's right! It's important to be able to manage things easily. Wang Baogong didn't come, it seems that he has no interest in the aftermath, and the envoy to the court is in Yuanzhou, did he send someone to urge him? Zan Jurun asked.

Xiang Xun is also the envoy of the Southern Court of Xuanhui, regardless of the affairs of the Northern Court, but he is also the prisoner of the camp and horses, and of course he should also participate in the aftermath negotiations, at least ask him for instructions.

"I've sent someone to urge me, I should be here in the next few days!" Zhang Yue replied and asked, "What does Zan Kelang plan to talk about this war?" ”

"What else can I do, it's nothing more than asking for a sky-high price, and paying back the money on the spot! First of all, the lord of Shu must go to the emperor and pay tribute to my Great Zhou. With this prerequisite, let's talk about the next step, then, the lord of Shu took advantage of the fire to steal and occupy Qin Feng, looted countless money, Qin Feng's common people were unbearable, and went to Tokyo to write a book, and now he is on an expedition to the king, should he pay tribute to Da Zhou? "Zan Ju runs with confidence.

This is all a high-sounding reason in diplomacy, the victor is, of course, the lion's mouth, Zhang Yue only cares about the actual data, so he asked: "Then Zan Kelang thinks the asking price is appropriate?" ”

"Haha...... Shu has abundant grain, and it is even more rich in Shu brocade, so there are 300,000 stones of grain, 100,000 horses of Shu brocade, and 150,000 horses if it is silk, this number should be able to empty Meng Chang's inventory and make him remember it for a long time. Zan Jurun said with a smile that he had learned about the situation in Shuzhong and calculated it, and deliberately raised the price.

In this year, according to the unit price of hard currency such as grain, silk and silk in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the bucket of rice was about 300 to 400 yuan, and there was a difference between corn, rice, and wheat, but the difference was not big. 300,000 stone grain and grass are enough for half a year for an army of 100,000.

And the cloth is about horses, zhang, and rulers, so a horse is almost a roll. A horse of Shu brocade is about 150 yuan, and 100,000 horses of Shu brocade are worth nearly 150,000 yuan; The price of silk is low, about 100 yuan per horse. This is an astronomical amount no matter how it is calculated, and it will not be less.

"Zan Kelang! You underestimate the treasury reserves in Shu too much, I think multiply the number you said by five, otherwise the Shu envoy guarantees to agree. Zhang Yue laughed.

"No, it won't! That's a lot! What an exaggeration! You must know that when several square towns are added together, the tax amount of the two quarters a year will not reach this number! Zan Jurun was so stunned that he almost squirted out a mouthful of tea.

"No exaggeration! The account should be calculated in this way, allowing Shuzhong to pay 200,000 stone per year, and they can pay it in five years, so that in fact, Da Zhou still receives tax grain from Shuzhong. Zhang Yue said very seriously.

"Is that okay? What if the Shu envoy doesn't agree? We have achieved the goal of collecting Qin Feng and Xingyuan Mansion, and we will not use troops again! Zan Jurun was a little apprehensive in his heart, he was really frightened by 300,000 times five.

Feng Qianhou couldn't help but say, "Ahem...... Feasible! Zan Kelang might as well increase it to six times, and then talk slowly, if it doesn't work, you can still mobilize the army to deter! ”

"That's good...... When the Shu envoy comes, I will dry him again! This is General Zhang's staff, I seem to have seen it before, but I didn't dare to ask how to call it! Zan Jurun laughed, excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, but secretly endured it.

He couldn't help but think in his heart that the emperor was secretly preparing for the southern expedition to Huainan, and he was already asking Li Gu Xianggong to prepare grain and grass. If it really reaches the amount that Zhang Yue said, it will definitely be a great achievement, and I don't know how many civil officials will be envious, jealous and hateful when I return to Tokyo.

"A certain Tangzhou person, surnamed Feng, Zan Kelang can call me filial piety!" Feng Qianhou replied, of course he could see that Zan Jurun had a kind relationship with Zhang Yue, and he was also a literati, so he was so happy to be close.

"The journey was very hard, so I quit. If General Zhang has something to do, he can send someone to summon him at any time. After chatting for a while, Zan Jurun got up and said goodbye.

"Zan Kelang go slowly!" Feng Qianhou got up at the right time to follow, and sent Zan Jurun to the inn on behalf of Zhang Yue. Several high-ranking generals such as Murong Yanzhao and Li Chuyun did not bring their families, and they are currently also a guest house, so it will not be empty.

Zhang Yue also got up and went back to the official mansion behind, the soldiers were originally on duty in the courtyard, but they all ran out at this time, only guarding the two ends of the horizontal corridor outside the gate of the official residence.

When I entered the back hall, I saw Song Yaozhu standing sideways in the hall, combing her long black hair with her head sideways, the droplets dripping from the end of her hair wet a large piece of the tight-fitting narrow-sleeved beige can-necked shirt, the bright red belt was tied to the slender waist, and the light green thin flower dress with heavy brocade swayed slightly with the movement of her hands to comb her hair.

"You don't need to clean the bedroom, just change the curtains to beige, the four of you go and prepare dinner, and let Huang Ying stay and serve." Song Yaozhu commanded the four maidservants who stayed here, which Han Baozheng left behind, and Murong Yanzhao picked four to send them to the official mansion and took four of them himself.

The eldest of the few ladies was fifteen, and the youngest was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and when they saw Zhang Yue standing in front of the door, they all came forward and said a thousand blessings, and walked away with their heads down. Zhang Yue didn't have much interest in them, so he only asked them to take care of their daily diet, and now it seems that Song Yaozhu and her maid Huang Ying have taken over.

"Huang Ying also go! It's still early! Zhang Yue smiled warmly, his eyes were a little hot, and the feeling of reuniting with Xiao Bie was extraordinary, making people hungry and thirsty.

Song Yaozhu turned around when she heard Zhang Yue's voice, and a white bust embroidered with a red peony pattern was revealed under the open neckline of the open-necked shirt, and a ravine loomed very attractively.

Zhang Yue's eyes were straight, and he saw that Song Yaozhu's face was red, and when he saw that Huang Ying was looking at him, his eyes were inquiring, so he asked him to get busy

"Didn't you like purple before? The dress is also all purple, why did you change it now? Zhang Yue smiled, her eyes wandered over her graceful undulating figure, but she asked in surprise.

"In the past, I was supreme in the society, I could do whatever I wanted, but now it's different, I want to seize the opportunity from time to time, dress up more beautiful than others, only groom for someone, and only please someone!"

Song Yaozhu squinted at Zhang Yue and smiled playfully, pulled her hair back to her head and tied it loosely, bent her arms and raised them when she did this, and her sleeves naturally slipped off to reveal her snow-white and round wrists, which formed a tonal contrast with the jasper color of the bracelet, elegant and soft. Naturally standing up in front of him, the towering and delicate twin peaks flashed in his mind in an instant, Zhang Yue's breathing became rapid and hot, and he slowly stepped forward and reached out from behind to hug her slender waist.

"Then I can only strive for a higher status for you to win honor, more wealth for you to live comfortably, more time to spend with you, even if there are a few of them in the family, I will try my best to let you get more than ordinary women in this world." Zhang Yue whispered in her ear.

Song Yaozhu turned around, stretched out her hand to wrap her arms around Zhang Yue's neck, and slowly closed her charming eyes that were as clear as water. Zhang Yue bowed down and picked up the crook of her legs, strode into the bedroom, stretched out his feet and closed the door, and quickly stepped forward and pounced on the bed. (To be continued.) )
