Chapter 135: The Cub Sells Ye Tian
"What? is the little prince really willing to cede the border town?"
After listening to Wu Ming's words, the hall was silent for a long time, and Zhao Hong was the first to stand still, and his breathing was slightly short.
can make an innate powerhouse lose his temper like this, which shows how amazing Wu Ming's proposal is!
Not only him, but also Zhou Minqing, a Confucian with extremely high cultivation, also stared at Wu Ming with a shrunken gaze, not to mention the rest of the people in the hall with different expressions!
Even Jia Zhengjing was stunned, which shows that Wu Ming has been hiding this matter from everyone.
"Yes, you have been in charge of the border town for many years, but I am just a young man, even if I occupy the name of righteousness, I don't know anything about the way of management, maybe one day I will destroy the border town. So, I thought about it for a long time and decided to give up the ownership of the border town!"
Wu Ming took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Little prince, this matter is very high, can you allow this official to make a decision after going to the imperial court?"
Zhou Minqing groaned for a moment and proposed.
"Lord Zhou, as long as the border town is not a transaction with a foreign country, after the negotiation is completed, it can be handed over to the household department to supplement the deed, right?"
Wu Ming chuckled.
Zhou Minqing's eyes flashed, he bowed slightly, and didn't say anything more.
It can be seen that the young man in front of him has already made up his mind and will never give the court time to react!
Moreover, if such a big benefit is sold to the border town, no one who is a little selfish will be allowed to destroy it.
"Little prince, forgive the foolish opinion, if you want to sell the border town, I'm afraid there are conditions, right?"
Wang Qingcang and an old man with a clear face behind him glanced at each other and asked tentatively.
"Hehe, of course, although the five border towns of my Wu Wangfu are not top-notch, their production is also considered to be middle and upper-class, and it is impossible to give them to others in vain!"
Wu Ming smiled lightly, swept over the four border town guards meaningfully, and finally paused on the white-faced middle-aged man who was hiding behind everyone.
"Dare to ask the little prince, what are the conditions?"
Zhao Hong also exchanged glances with an old man beside him who looked like he was doing business, and said in a deep voice.
"It's very simple, five years of endowment! It should be handed over to the palace for five years, and all of it will be completed in a little bit.
Secondly, the cost of settling the people in the southern outer city this time was all borne by the four border towns.
Third, the annual private school, school, and martial arts hall will also be allocated by 50% of the original royal endowment. ”
Wu Ming slowly put down the teacup and said slowly.
"That's all?"
Yuan Cheng, who had not spoken, had a strange face.
The rest of the people, too!
The three conditions are definitely a big loss for Wu Ming, after all, from now on, the five border towns have nothing to do with him.
Moreover, even if you only take out fifty percent, the remaining fifty percent is a huge amount.
You must know that Wu Wangfu accounts for thirty percent of the output of the border town, and the rest is distributed by each family, and the output after a few years will be enough to make up for this extra expenditure!
Not to mention, it's just the most basic private school, and it doesn't take much resources to train ordinary people, and some of them are boring!
In other words, it's a chicken that sells a golden egg!
"Brother, it's a loss, in less than five years, no, three years of endowment, you can make up for it, you ......"
Jia Zhengjing approached, and he didn't care about it, and said directly.
"I've made up my mind!"
Wu Ming patted him on the shoulder, signaled to be a little calm, swept over everyone with a flat gaze, and said solemnly, "Ladies and gentlemen, there is Lord Shangshu Zhou here, you don't have to doubt my words, whether you are willing to accept the conditions, please give me a clear answer!"
Seeing him like this, Jia Zhengjing couldn't say anything, so he had to step aside.
"Little prince, can Brother Wu agree to this matter?"
It was Yuan Bushan who spoke, who was as old as him, and when he saw the incomprehension in Wu Fu's eyes, he immediately asked.
After being in King Wu's Mansion for many days, it is natural to know that the only person who can have an impact on Wu Ming is Wu Fu!
"Yuan Laosan, you don't have to probe the old man's tone, the border town belongs to the little young master, and everything is up to him!"
Wu Fu said coldly.
"Ahem!"
Yuan Bushan's face was scornful, and he withdrew with a dry cough.
"Although this matter is hasty, since it is the little prince's decision, it is reasonable. ”
Wang Jing, who was silent, said suddenly.
"Since even the Legalist Lord Wang said so, then I have nothing to worry about, it's just that the five-year endowment is enough to cover the harvest of the border town in the past two years, and I can't take it out for a while, so I ask the little prince to give me a few days!"
Zhao Hong slapped the table and said loudly.
"Hehe, I'll only give you three days!"
Wu Ming smiled lightly.
"Three days is too short, even if it is a round trip......"
Zhao Hong and the others' faces changed slightly.
"Don't say I'm not close to people, the people in the southern outer city are waiting for me, and the people in the capital are also watching me!"
Wu Ming put down the tea cup he had just picked up, and the sound of the porcelain colliding made everyone's expressions tense and their hearts sudden.
Everyone knows what is going on with the reason why the imperial court ordered the five border towns to deliver the deed!
Although he is young, he has made several shots, but many big people are jealous.
Especially this time to 'coerce' the people of the southern outer city and incite the whole process of public opinion, especially for the people in power to avoid taboos!
"Okay, three days is three days, Zhao will not let the little prince lose his trust to the people!"
The corners of Zhao Hong's eyes twitched slightly, and he sat back down.
It's just that the self-professed has changed!
"Don't worry, little prince, within three days, you will be ready!"
Wang Qingcang bowed.
"The last general...... Will do it!"
Yuan Cheng glanced at Yuan Bushan and gritted his teeth.
"This is a great thing!"
Wang Jing smiled lightly.
After that, the eyes of the four people were the same, intentionally or unintentionally looking at one person in the corner.
From beginning to end, this person was watching from the sidelines, as if it was none of his business.
But everyone present knew that the ownership of the four border towns had been decided, and only the Yiwu Town to be sold still needed Wu Ming's decision!
This person is the middle-aged man that Wu Ming has observed several times!
"Ahem, Mr. Zhang, if you want to buy Yiwu Town, you should also show sincerity, right?"
Jia Zhengjing reminded with a dry cough.
"Little Prince, in Xia Zhang Zhongxin, on behalf of the Zhang family in Yiwu Town, I don't know if the little prince sold the border town, have you ever thought about the people who rely on the border town to make a living, have you considered the soldiers who have been born and died for many years?"
The middle-aged man stood up calmly and said loudly.
"This son is young, and he asks himself if he can't afford to take charge of the border town, and wants to hand over to a capable person, does Lord Zhang think this reason is okay?"
The corners of Wu Ming's mouth curled slightly, outlining a meaningful smile.
This person is the third brother of the four brothers of the Zhang family and the third brother of Zhang Zhongyi!
"That is the case, why should it be sold? If you care about the soldiers and the people, shouldn't you give it away? Could it be that so many soldiers have thrown their heads and spilled their blood, and have worked hard for the Wu Wangfu for many years, but they can't get a trace of mercy from the little prince?"
Zhang Zhongxin's eyes flashed slightly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed slightly, and most of them made a look of watching the play that had nothing to do with themselves, but they all wanted to see how Wu Ming responded.
"Mercy? Death in a hundred battles on the battlefield, and the return of the horse leather shroud! It is the fate of the soldiers!"
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows, got up slowly, looked at Zhang Zhongxin indifferently, and showed a mocking look on his face, "If you really want mercy, why don't your Zhang family contribute all the output of Yiwu Town to the soldiers and the people?"
"Hmph, my Zhang family has guarded Yiwu Town for three generations, how much has I paid for this, how can you know as a yellow-mouthed child?"
Zhang Zhongxin said coldly.
"Hehe, being generous to others, spending the wealth of other surnames, being ruthless to others, and being useless to yourself?"
Wu Ming said with a smile.
"Good!"
Zhou Minqing's eyes lit up, and his face showed a slight bow of approval.
Even Wang Jing, who had been keeping a straight face, looked at Wu Ming in a little surprise, and his eyes showed a look of scrutiny.
seems to be observing, why does this young and young man have such a sharp mouth?
"You ......"
Zhang Zhongxin was speechless, his face changed pale for a while, and his eyes flashed, and his figure was half shorter.
"Okay Lao Zhang, are you here to talk about business, or are you here to do a war of words? Do business, just take out real money, otherwise ......"
Jia Zhengjing said coldly.
"Okay, my Zhang family agreed!"
Zhang Zhongxin gritted his teeth with hatred.
"Very good, in that case, this son is waiting for your good news!"
Wu Ming picked up the teacup slightly.
Seeing this, everyone got up and took their leave.
"Today, the words and deeds of the little prince are by no means comparable to ordinary teenagers, why do you repeatedly oppose Confucianism?
Zhou Minqing, who was walking last, suddenly turned around and looked at Wu Ming with burning eyes.
"Hehe, sir's words are wrong, if Confucianism is like those flies and dogs, don't say that the Great Song Dynasty, even the five kingdoms of Shenzhou, and even the human race, are not far from the extinction of the country!"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and he gently put down the teacup.
"Extinction of the country and extinction of the species?"
Zhou Minqing savored it, chuckled and left.
I don't know if this laughter is mocking Wu Ming's rebellious ignorance, or if it is slightly touched!
"Hey!"
Wu Ming looked at the back of this great Confucian and sighed deeply, with mixed feelings in his heart.
Even if you don't take it very seriously when you go to school, you know that the Song Dynasty can be called the darkest history of ancient China.
The sentence 'rule the world with scholars' opened an era in which martial artists were comprehensively suppressed by literati, in exchange for the destruction of the country and the extinction of the species!
The number of tragic incidents is inseparable from the Confucian literati.
With Wu Ming's experience, how can he not know the strength of the pen of today's scribes?
But Shenzhou is different, the five kingdoms stand side by side, the demons are powerful, and Confucianism will never dare to suppress the warriors too much!
You don't see it, the sage proposed to respect Confucianism alone, deposed the hundred schools, and finally was also killed by the backlash.
Even the powerful Han Empire, which was once prosperous, fell apart soon after it survived, making the people of the human race miserable, and almost being wiped out by the demons!
A bloody lesson is enough to make Confucianism a bogey.
Of course, today's Wu Ming is far from qualified to be today's opponent, and what is hostile to him is just a few insignificant rat droppings in Confucianism!
"Brother, don't you think about it anymore? Four border towns, if you say let go, you will give it away, your hand is too big and amazing, no, it's too scary!"
Jia Zhengjing rubbed his hands and said urgently.
"In the future, you will understand! You still need to worry about the matter of the endowment, and I don't need so much in this house!"
Wu Ming said meaningfully.
"This ...... Okay! The cub doesn't feel distressed when he sells Yetian, hey!"
In this matter, Jia Zhengjing is not good at persuasion, thinking that the five years of thirty percent of the treasures in the four border towns are produced, which is enough for him to be busy for a while.
I didn't stay long, I said goodbye and left.
