Chapter 82: The Pure Land Plan

"His Royal Highness!"

Yan Gui's face was full of shock, this young man turned out to be His Royal Highness the Acting King, Yan Gui did not suspect the old man, in his impression, the old man Yan did not recognize the wrong person.

As a merchant's son, Yan Gui never imagined that one day, he would be able to meet the royal people face to face and see them with his own eyes.

And he is also the eldest son of the East Palace, and he is the highest left-behind chief in Daxing City.

It can be said unceremoniously that if today's scene spreads, the threshold of the Yan family will immediately be trampled by those who see the wind and make the rudder, and the attitude of those officials who were high in the past towards the Yan family will change one hundred and eighty degrees.

"Meet His Royal Highness!" Yan Gui was full of excitement, and immediately followed his father and fell to the ground.

"Two of you, please!"

Yang Yu smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, and personally helped Old Man Yan up.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King tortures the old man!"

Old Man Yan repeatedly confessed, but he did not refuse the support of His Royal Highness the Acting King, but skillfully stood up with the momentum, cooperating with Yang Yu's jerky behavior of buying people's hearts.

At this moment, Yan Lai and Yang Yu were very close, and Yan Lai couldn't help but look at this world-famous prince curiously.

At this moment, Yang Yu is dressed in cotton clothes, and he doesn't even have a single ornament on his body, which is very different from the dazzling clothes of those noble sons on the market.

Yan Lai, who has a vicious eye, can even see that although the cotton clothes on His Royal Highness the Acting King are beautifully fabricated, they are not very good in terms of workmanship, and some corners are not very well handled.

Such cotton clothes are not common in ordinary wealthy families, but there is no such phenomenon in the royal family.

Since His Royal Highness the Acting King wore this dress, there is only one possibility, that is, this dress was made by the princess herself.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King is a filial son!"

After Old Man Yan came to this conclusion, he was slightly relieved about what happened to him today.

From the words and deeds of His Royal Highness the Acting King, the father and son of the Yan family did not feel any malice.

It's just that a cloud of suspicion has been hanging over the hearts of the Yan family's father and son, and they really can't understand why His Royal Highness the Acting King would invite the two of them.

Yang Yugui is the prince, and the father and son of the Yan family are just the children of lowly merchants.

In terms of status, they are all very different, and it can be said that the parallel lines of two lives can never intersect.

"Mr. Yan is expensive this year?!"

Yang Yoo's posture is modest, as if he is at home.

"The old man is seventy and two this year, and he wastes his time." Old Man Yan hurriedly replied.

"Oh!" Yang Yu glanced at Old Man Yan in surprise, in this dynasty, the average life expectancy is very low, and it is already a very high age to be able to live to the age of seventy.

"Mr. Yan is humble, you have experienced two dynasties in your life, and you started from scratch, and you have worked hard to the point where your family is rich, which can be described as a legend in your life." Yang Yu admired that for capable people, Yang Yu has never been stingy with praise.

Being able to get the compliment of His Royal Highness the Acting King, Old Man Yan was excited, but on the surface he was still modest, and he even called it lucky.

Yang Yu and Old Man Yan praised each other, and poor Yan Gui could only stand beside him in a daze, unable to interject at all.

When he was bored, he swept away and saw a man dressed in brocade and with a white beard coming over.

"This must be a eunuch." Yan Gui said secretly in his heart.

Sure enough, as soon as this person opened his mouth, his identity was revealed, but the content of the words made him feel like a lightning strike.

"Your Royal Highness, the banquet is ready." Wang Xi's voice was sharp.

"What, feast!" The father and son of the Yan family are like falling clouds.

The father and son of the Yan family never thought that His Royal Highness the Acting King would come to invite the two to the banquet.

"Old man Yan, please!" Yang Yoo stretched out his hand to invite the pose.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King, please!"

Old man Yan, who has experienced the market, came back to his senses in the shortest possible time and was busy.

In the main house of the quadrangle, three tables are arranged.

Yang Yu sat on the main seat, Wang Xi served on the side, and the father and son of the Yan family sat on the right side.

Soon the meals were served, unlike the current way of gatherings, where the dishes were placed on plates and could be eaten by all.

There are not many meals, two dishes in front of each person, a bowl of rice, and there is no luxury scene of a table full of bird's nest shark fin as rumored in the market, and only one bite of each.

However, the price is exquisite, each dish is finely chiseled, the color and flavor are complete, and the rice is also a special polished rice from Jiangnan, with full grains, which makes people can't help but have a great appetite.

However, among the three of them, only Yang Yu could eat, and the father and son of the Yan family were full of worries, and there was no taste in their mouths.

Old Man Yan traveled south and north to see a lot of knowledge, and he was very good at adjusting the atmosphere, telling some anecdotes in a colorful way, and the atmosphere of the whole banquet quickly became harmonious.

Soon, the guests and hosts were satisfied.

Wang Xi beckoned the guards, cleaned up the mess of cups and plates, and then another guard brought fragrant tea.

The father and son of the Yan family were sitting in danger, and when Zhilu Dao began to talk about business, it was impossible for His Royal Highness the Acting King to invite him to the banquet for no reason.

"This king learned that Old Man Yan often comes to Lijiawan." Yang Yu asked straight to the point.

"Exactly, the old man quite appreciates the amazing skills of His Royal Highness the Acting King, and the saline-alkali land is low-lying. For thousands of years, countless people only thought of washing the land, but that could only last for two or three years, and the land would become saline-alkali land again. Old Man Yan sighed, "Who would have thought that as long as the land was raised three feet higher, the problem could be solved once and for all, and His Royal Highness the Acting King could say that this move would benefit all the people." ”

Yang Yu's youthful temperament was praised by Old Man Yan, and he couldn't help but show a smug expression.

The construction of the Taitian fish pond is one of his proudest things, comparable to it only with the brick road and the subjugation of Du Ruhui, and even the manufacture of four-wheeled carriages has to be ranked behind.

"Then from the perspective of Old Man Yan, how much is this king's 100,000 acres of terrace worth?" Yang Yu asked.

Old Man Yan pondered for a while and replied: "The price of land in Guanzhong has always been expensive, and the price per mu of terrace land is more than 300 yuan. The price of the fish pond will be doubled to 6,000 kan. ”

Yan Gui couldn't help but smack his tongue, among the 100,000 mu, the area of the terrace is about 70,000 mu, and the area of the fish pond is about 30,000 mu. Count it this way. If all the 100,000 acres of fish ponds and terraces are sold, it will reach 39 million yuan.

39 million pieces!

What a terrible number that would be.

It is amazing that His Royal Highness the Acting King has created such a high value in just a few months.

Rao is Yang Yu is accustomed to seeing the treasury of the East Palace, and he is still excited when he hears the figure of 39 million guan. He worked desperately to distribute a golden order on behalf of the king to get 7 million guan, but he didn't expect that now he would have the opportunity to earn 39 million guan.

calmed down his excitement, Yang Yu said helplessly: "Mr. Yan doesn't know, reclamation of wasteland is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the fish pond terrace is even more so, and now Lijiawan has gathered nearly 100,000 people, and it has taken such a long time to reclaim 10,000 acres of terraced fields. ”

Yang Yu paused and said, "It's not a secret, now there are more than 500,000 displaced people in Jingzhao County. To feed these people, coupled with the cost of various projects, the surplus money of the Disaster Relief Department is almost exhausted! ”

Old Man Yan's face was pale, and his voice trembled: "If His Royal Highness the Acting King needs money, Xiaomin is willing to give all the family wealth." ”

Yan Gui suddenly raised his head and looked at his father in disbelief, the Yan family had a lot of money, and he gave it away so easily.

Yang Yu looked up in amazement, looked at Old Man Yan, and said with a wry smile: "Old Man Yan misunderstood, this king doesn't mean that, on the contrary, this king wants to give you a big business opportunity." ”

"Great business opportunity!"

The father and son of the Yan family suddenly raised their heads.
