Chapter 151: Robbery While the Fire Is Burning (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Witnessing the unfortunate encounter of hundreds of steppe wolves, Jia Cong was still unhappy.
I didn't even bother to guess how these aliens could ambush them, just took away the intact war horses, and then cut off the thumbs of the steppe cavalry who were injured and could be saved, and handed over these guys to the local government who came in a hurry.
"Thank goodness you kid is finally back safely!"
Reconciled with Chain Er again, this guy looked haggard with two big dark circles under his eyes, obviously he hadn't slept well these days, and even his originally rounded figure had been thinned.
"It's not a little delayed on the road!"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "I met some interesting people and things, and by the way, I also robbed a bandit cottage, this time the harvest is quite a lot!" ”
"What. You kid robbed all those bandits? ”
"Don't get excited, it's their own bad luck, it has nothing to do with me, it's just a big bargain!"
When the second chain knew the specific process of the trip to Ping'an Prefecture, he couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, and said in his heart that Jia Cong's luck is too good, right?
At this time, Chain Er and Jia Conghui joined the Xue family caravan and left Jinyang to return to the capital.
After the fright of the Ping'an Prefecture incident, Lian Er couldn't continue to be at ease in Jinyang, feeling that the capital was relatively stable, and set off together after Jia Cong came back safely.
"Third brother, your harvest in Ping'an Prefecture this time is not small!"
On the way, Lian Er licked his face and approached Jia Cong, and said embarrassedly: "Can you reveal how much silver is worth?" ”
"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, Second Brother Chain, why are you asking this?"
Jia Cong is not used to this guy, he is not polite at all, and there are two big words written in his eyes: Guard!
"What are you talking about, boy?"
Chain Er was a little injured, and said angrily: "How can you say that we all came out together, and when there are difficulties, there are benefits, and naturally we will also share profits!" ”
"Stop dreaming!"
Jia Cong rolled his eyes, he didn't mean to share the benefits at all, and said leisurely: "Unless you can exchange the same benefits, the second brother of the chain will still be cool!" ”
"You kid, you're heartless!"
Saying this, don't say that Jia Cong looked disgusted, even the guards and little servants next to him couldn't help but shudder, and distanced themselves from the carriage of the second chain house.
When the group passed through the clouds, they encountered a strange incident.
With the popularity of honeycomb coal and its rapid popularity in large and medium-sized cities, coal sales have been rising, and prices have also risen.
But recently, there was a high-quality large coal mine for sale, and I heard that it was quite advantageous in terms of geographical location and difficulty of mining, but no one was willing to take over.
The group happened to be resting at the inn, and they were naturally very interested when they heard such news.
Especially in Chain 2, he made a lot of money from honeycomb coal, but he was favored by the more powerful and had to withdraw from the capital market, and could only make some stable hard-earned money in the suburbs of the capital.
"Third brother, this is a good opportunity to make a lot of money."
I don't know what Chain Er thinks, so he actually encouraged Jia Cong to take over this big coal mine: "At present, the coal market is rising, as long as it can produce stably, it is a good deal to lie down and make money!" ”
"Since it's so good, why doesn't Second Brother Chain make a move?"
Rolling his eyes, Jia Cong said angrily: "As soon as I heard this, I knew that I was tired, if I accidentally got into trouble, would the second brother of the chain take it for me?" ”
"Don't I have no money?"
"Why don't I lend money to Second Brother Lian?"
"Forget it, I'm still in the officialdom, it's not good to be in the melon field!"
Jia Cong despised Lian Er's act of fanning the flames, and said leisurely: "If Second Brother Lian helps to inquire about the inside story of this big coal mine, as long as the situation is not too complicated, I am willing to take over!" ”
What if you know it's a pit?
With Jia Cong's majestic luck at this time, whoever goes against him is asking for trouble.
It didn't take long for the communicative chain to come back with the news, but the look on his face was quite strange, as if he was holding back something.
"Hehe, the third brother would never have imagined that the large-scale coal mine for sale turned out to be the property of Prince Zhongshun!"
When he said this, the man gloated with a grim face, and was obviously happy to talk about the bad fortune of Prince Zhongshun.
It's fate......
Jia Cong easily pitted Prince Zhongshun a lot, and he couldn't get out of the palace, and the peripheral forces were also uprooted.
In order to avoid losses, Prince Zhongshun had to take the initiative to shrink, and even sold a lot of royal properties.
In the suburbs of Beijing, it is easy to sell.
After all, there are too many powerful people in the capital, and there are many people in the clan who don't care about Prince Zhongshun, and they are not afraid that he will regret it afterwards.
But here in the clouds is different, although the high-quality coal mines here are all taken by the powerful, but the powerful and the powerful are also different.
But anyone who knows the situation of Prince Zhongshun is unwilling to be involved with him, and he has not received any benefits, but he has caused a commotion.
This is also the main reason why Lian Er looks weird, but he didn't expect it to be an industry in the name of Prince Zhongshun.
"Buy, let's buy!"
Jia Cong, who didn't have much thought about it, heard that the high-quality coal mine sold in Yunzhong but no one cared about it was the property of Prince Zhongshun, so he suddenly became interested and made a decision.
When he personally went to the coal mine to inspect it, he and the subordinates sent by Prince Zhongshun to deal with the coal mine were directly completed.
Although that guy has a face from beginning to end, Jia Cong doesn't care.
As Chain 2 said, as long as there is no problem with the production of a high-quality coal mine, there is no difference between making money lying down in the current year, and it is still a fairly stable income, and there will not be too many twists and turns.
After buying the coal mine, Jia Cong did not rush to make adjustments, but first spent some time personally inspecting, and when he got acquainted with the situation, it was time to leave for Beijing.
Jia Cong didn't have any bad intentions, just let the coal mine remain the same.
If there are any ideas for improvement, it is not too late to come back to toss when you have free time later.
In order to buy this high-quality coal mine, he spent most of the loot seized from the thieves in Ping'an Prefecture and did not feel distressed.
It's the second guy in the chain, seeing Jia Cong spending money lavishly, spending tens of thousands of taels of silver almost without blinking, but he felt sorry for Jia Cong for a while.
"Third brother, when my brother's business grows big in the future and he needs a lot of coal support, you can't be stingy!"
When he recovered from his distress, he finally revealed the true purpose of instigating Jia Cong to buy the coal mine owned by Prince Zhongshun.
As his official position rose and his status grew, he was also qualified to take control of a city's honeycomb coal business.
The output of the few small remote coal kilns that he owned in the suburbs of Beijing was not enough to support him to expand the market.
Everyone else has their own coal mines to sell themselves, and naturally no one else will be kind enough to sell the coal they dig out to him.
Even if there is such an existence, the price is not something that Chain 2 is willing to accept.
The current situation is the best, and he instigated Jia Cong to buy a large coal mine, and Chain Er didn't believe that Jia Cong would deal with him.
"As long as the second brother wants it, the coal dug up in the coal mine will be sold at the market price!"
Jia Cong's expression was indifferent, although the second brother of the chain was not very glamorous before, he didn't mean to care, and said leisurely: "It's just a matter of transportation, and the second brother of the chain is responsible for himself!" ”
Just kidding, it's six or seven hundred miles from Yunzhong to the capital, and under the current traffic conditions, he won't play any door-to-door delivery tricks for Chain Er.
"You kid, you're really good at picking the door!"
"Hehe, love or not!"
"Okay, wait for my brother and I to win the exclusive sales right of a town on the outskirts of Beijing, and then find you a profiteer!"
Talking and laughing, hundreds of miles are only a few days away, and when they see the tall and wide city walls of the capital in the distance, everyone's hearts can't help but surge with joy.
Only when you really go out on your feet can you know how difficult it is in this era.
Daqing was at the peak of its national strength at this time, and the condition of the official road was okay, but the means of transportation were too primitive and backward.
Horses are quite delicate, and even if they don't need to be carefully cared for, they can walk a lot in a day.
This does not take into account the possible illness and various man-made or non-human dangers during the journey, which is simply a life-threatening struggle.
……
Not to mention that Lian Er and his entourage have already arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, Prince Zhongshun, who is shrinking from the palace here, soon got a report from his subordinates that the high-quality coal mine in the cloud of the palace was bought, and the person who bought it was Jia Cong.
"Bastard, bastard, the previous account has not been settled with this kid, and now he dares to take advantage of the fire to rob, I really think that this king has no way to target, right?"
Prince Zhongshun was so angry that he didn't even bother with his favorite drama troupe, so he nested in the study to vent his displeasure.
just vented hard, but after calming down, he was depressed and found that there were really not many means to deliberately target Jia Cong.
According to the information collected, this kid is too low-key in Rongguo Mansion, and he doesn't show his head much outside.
He doesn't have the usual problems of Xungui's children, he doesn't like to eat and drink in luxury restaurants, and he has no interest in Qinlou Chu Restaurant.
I don't have a bookstore in the bookstore when I have time, and my life is monotonous and tight.
Even if he wrote his name, he didn't see any signs of this kid fluttering, and his style of acting was still outrageously low-key.
But the more he was like this, the more jealous Prince Zhongshun became when he wanted to target him.
Let's not talk about the disgraced and dirty methods, and even the extremely sharp means, but it makes Prince Zhongshun feel palpitations.
I don't know where that kid got his writing skills at such a young age, and the wonderful books he wrote, all of which became popular in the capital, and his influence was greater day by day.
He has personally experienced the influence of the hit, and he really doesn't want to be the clown of the next hit, and the end is quite bad......
