432 Warrior power
Although he went to Tibet to conquer Tibet, he received the least reward, and even the reward of 10,000 catties of gold was also "donated" to the out, which seems a bit unfair, and even the emperor is biased and suppresses Liu Yuan, but in the hearts of the discerning people, this is just a temporary exercise, and it will be of great use in the future, so Liu Yuan has already become a "popular spicy chicken".
As long as he leaves a good impression in the emperor's heart, is it not a matter of his words to be prosperous and prosperous? Besides, Liu Yuan has a good relationship with the prince and princess, and these are also collected in the eyes of those who have a heart, the icing on the cake is only an afterthought, and the truth is seen in the snow.
Cheng Lao Thief, recommended Liu Yuan as his deputy, it may not be to win him over, by the way, after going down today, the old thief did not leave, but followed the emperor to the imperial study, it is possible to talk about the matter of raising the army, will it be on a whim, please ask the emperor to marry? Otherwise, send someone to take Liu Yuan away and cook raw rice into mature rice, and this demon king of the mixed world will not be unable to do it
The more Cui Jing thought about it, the more unpleasant it became, and secretly decided in his heart: No matter how busy he is tomorrow, maybe he has to find someone to pick an auspicious day, just pick the nearest one, don't hesitate anymore.
"And what do you say? Did you say yes? Cui Jing asked a little nervously.
Liu Yuan said with a "pitiful" face: "Who is the old general Cheng, father-in-law, you don't know what to do, the son-in-law didn't agree at first, but then he couldn't help himself, so he only agreed with him." ”
"You" Cui Jing pointed at Liu Yuan, he didn't know what to say, and he secretly regretted it in his heart, he knew that this kid was so blessed and had a great life, so it was better to do the worship before going on the expedition. Sit in the main room, and you don't have to worry about it now.
Cui Jing sat down depressedly, glanced at Liu Yuan, and said lightly: "Say, what do you have to do with the old man?" ”
"There are official affairs, there are also private affairs, and the official matter is that the emperor of the clairvoyant asked for vigorous development, so that the Ministry of Industry vigorously cooperated, and the son-in-law came this time to ask his father-in-law for help."
"The emperor has already told me about this," Cui Jing said lazily: "You said that there is still a private matter." What private matter? ”
Liu Yuan looked at the waiting officials next to him and did not speak.
Cui Jing took in Liu Yuan's small movements, knowing that there were outsiders in the Dao, it was inconvenient to say, look at the time. The hourglass used for timing has been exhausted, and it is time to end the shift. Yu Shi stood up and said, "Okay." Now that the yamen has dispersed, you can go back to the house with me, and it just so happens that the eldest brother has something to discuss with you. ”
"Son-in-law listens to orders"
Half an hour later, Liu Yuan and Cui Jing were already sitting in the hall of Cui's Mansion and having dinner together.
As the head of the world's sergeant clan. Cui's diet is naturally fine, picky, and huge. There were only three people seated: Cui Shang, Cui Jing and Liu Yuan.
This is the family rule of the Shi clan, women can't go to the table, the foundation of the Cui family is in Qinghe, those who have a future are gilded in other places, and the younger ones are studying in the academy set up by the Cui family in Qinghe, so in fact, Mrs. Cui can also sit at the table as the chief, but she said that it would not prevent men from getting down to business, so she sat in the second seat with Cui Mengyao.
Cui Mengyao wore a set of apricot long skirts today, she was originally a national color and fragrance, and she also wore a light dress, which is even more glamorous, the noble atmosphere, elegant manners, and beautiful face performed everyone's ladies to the fullest, coupled with the tenderness in her eyes, the flush on her cheeks, and the color waves secretly sent, Liu Yuan was drunk, and she looked away twice twice, which made Mrs. Cui make fun of her, it was the old pervert Cui Jing's old boy, who was also secretly proud of his beard.
His daughter has such charm, it is worth being happy, seeing Liu Yuan's fascination, this is his own blood, Cui Jing's heart is full of pride.
Hmph, look at how the old thief's cousin and niece compare with her own daughter.
At the dinner table, Cui Jing did not talk about business, Liu Yuan also did not mention a word, all said some happy things, at the request of Mrs. Cui, Liu Yuan tirelessly talked about the heroic deeds in Tubo, mostly talking about the Maqin ambush, the attack on military rations and other deeds, Liu Yuan said plainly, but the process was really thrilling, when it came to the tension, many young girls in the house screamed when they heard it.
After Cui Shang heard this, he couldn't help but comment: "Looking at the battle report, I feel that it is not easy, I didn't expect it to be so thrilling, but Xiaoyuan, you are full of wisdom, and you actually thought of using that sheep to spread fire, it is simply wonderful, this battle is comparable to Tiandan's fire bull array, Zhuge Chengxiang's battle example of burning vine armor soldiers." ”
"Ha Luha, yes, yes, I didn't expect you kid to really have brains, rare, rare." Cui Jing heard Liu Yuan so competitive, and he was so happy that he drank three glasses in a row.
A beautiful woman whispered to Cui Mengyao: "Xiao Yao, your husband is so heroic, he is simply a legendary adult enemy, it is really a stake, no wonder you never gave up on him that day, recalling that he returned triumphantly from Tubo, fresh clothes and angry armor, riding a high-headed horse, surrounded by soldiers, and the blowing of the common people into the city, it is really graceful and majestic, if Wu Niang is young, I will rob you." ”
"Fifth sister, where is your share, don't you see, I don't know how many little ladies throw incense towels to him, Meng Yao, listen to your third mother's words, you can cherish it." Another woman smiled and said the way.
It was Cui Jing's third concubine and the fifth concubine who spoke, she got along well with Cui Mengyao on weekdays, and couldn't help but joke about her, where did Cui Mengyao experience this meeting, she was so red with laughter that she couldn't help but secretly glance at Liu Yuan, she really had affection in her heart, her eyes were intentional, and her eyes were full of tenderness, but she just glanced at it, and immediately lowered her head again, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Sanniang, Wuniang, don't laugh at the ballads." ”
The neck and ears are red.
Liu Yuan suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask, "Father-in-law, haven't the major families organized logistics teams?" What is the final record? ”
When he set off, Cui Jing united several big families to establish a logistics team, mainly following behind the Zhenbo army, buying booty from the Tubo army at a low price, such as prisoners, armor, gold and silver goods, etc., and then changing hands to make money.
Cui Jing and Cui Shang glanced at each other, Cui Shang smiled bitterly and said: "Seeing my wry smile, you also know the way, the idea is good, but it is too difficult to implement, mainly because the soldiers are extremely unsuitable for the plateau, plus the place is not as good as the Tang Dynasty, poor and remote, nothing valuable, there is something, you swept it clean, first encountered an avalanche, broke a little, and then met a team of Tubo soldiers, with heavy casualties, I can't see it, I have to retreat, don't tell you, the little silver I earned is not enough to pay for it, don't mention it, Don't mention it. ”
Sure enough, the ideal is plump, realistic and skinny, without sufficient preparation, entering that mysterious plateau, it is reasonable to lose troops and generals, if it is so easy to rob, Tubo will not develop to the point where he dares to argue with the Tang Dynasty and dare to raise troops to commit crimes.
"Don't talk about this disappointment, come, eat one." Cui Jing didn't want to mention this matter again, and Liu Yuan didn't want to ask again, so he picked up the cup and touched it with him, and he did.
After eating a glass of wine, Cui Shang asked with interest about what happened in Tubo, and even mentioned how to capture the Tubo princess, Liu Yuan answered one by one, of course, the Tubo princess was forced to bow to the overlord and hidden, Cui Jing and Cui Jing also tacitly knew some things, and did not mention a word.
While eating, he said that this meal took more than an hour to finish.
"Xiaoyuan, come, let's go to the study to talk." After eating, Cui Shang simply rinsed his mouth, and then said with a smile.
"Yes, uncle."
"Third child, come too."
"That's good, big brother."
After eating, the conversation is naturally down to business.
Cui Shang, Cui Jing, and Liu Yuan sat down in the study, waiting for the subordinates to send sandalwood and fragrant tea, Cui Shang waved his hand, and the subordinates and maids retreated, and the conversation officially began.
"Okay, Xiaoyuan, let's talk about the lottery now" Cui Shang took out an account book and said: "The three-month management right is over in the morning, and the money from all over the country has been collected, and it has been divided once before the New Year, and the rest should have been given to you a long time ago, but you went to Tibet, and you couldn't hand it over to me, and today you also came, as the saying goes, people are favors, and the number should be clear, now let's settle it." ”
"Uncle just speaks bluntly, niece and son-in-law listen," Liu Yuan replied with a smile.
Everything is handled by the Cui family, and they have no information in their hands, they give more and less, all according to their conscience, and in front of the strong Cui family, the current Liu Yuan is still a small role, and he has no ability to call the board, otherwise, he would not have handed over the management rights to them.
Cui Shang nodded and said: "It's all my own family, I won't report those numbers one by one, just report the total number for you, according to our previous agreement, you can also divide it into 183,562 taels, it's late tonight, I'll let someone send it to you tomorrow." ”
"One hundred hundred thousand taels? So much? Liu Yuan was taken aback.
Cui Jing said with some pride: "It's not much, it's just too hurried, and the time is too short, three hundred and sixty states, three months, one-third of the states have not yet been carried out, some states are too poor, there is no need to promote, and there is no experience, otherwise, this dividend is not a problem." ”
Qinghe Cui clan, one of the five surnames of the seven clans, the head of the Shi clan in the world, is really famous, the Tang Dynasty is so big, the transportation is inconvenient, some far away state capitals, is to use fast horses, back and forth also for a month, lottery this is such a new thing, it can be launched in such a short time, and there is a lot of profit, that speed, it is even more effective than the promotion of the government, because now the Shi clan is still a little resistant to the royal family, many things have a skeptical attitude, Yang Feng Yin disobeys, the order is not good, the patriarch's order is more effective than what holy decree.
This is the strength of the scholar clan, and it is also a taboo place for Li Er, but as long as the existence of the positive system in the nine grades, the cohesion of the scholar clan will not be dispersed, and the strength will not be weakened.
Suddenly received more than 100,000 taels, and Liu Yuan was naturally smiling. (To be continued......)
