Chapter 414: Go Further

Less than half a day after leaving Yuzhou City, Chen Yu and the others were targeted by a group of bandits again.

After a period of fighting, all the thieves who came to rob turned into corpses.

Collect weapons, bury corpses, clean up the bandits' lair, and get a technique and some gold and silver treasures.

If the strength of the bandits is too poor, Chen Yu will let Chen Bao and others practice, if the strength of the bandits is very strong, he will personally solve it.

It took more than two months for everyone to arrive at the imperial city in Shenzhou.

bought a house to live in, Chen Yu left Chen Bao and the others to go out alone to find out the news.

Within the territory of the Great Zhou Empire, there are a total of eighteen super powers, namely nine super families, and schools located in various states.

Wandering around restaurants and green buildings all day long, it took more than ten days for Chen Yu to get the information he wanted.

"Li Gao, the head of the eunuchs, is powerful and greedy, so he is looking for him to buy an official!"

It took more than ten days and spent a lot of money, and Chen Yu and Li Ren, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, became dog meat friends.

This morning, the two of them, as in the past, came to Piaoxiang Building again.

"Chen Gongzi, here in the Imperial City, if you have anything to do, just look for me." Li Ren, who was drunk and hazy, patted his chest and said.

"Steward Li, I want to buy an official position." Chen Yu said.

"What officer?" Li Ren suddenly sobered up a little.

"The magistrate of Hushan County." Chen Yu said.

"Chen Gongzi, you are my brother, it is too bad to buy a county magistrate, how about getting a county guard?" Li Ren asked.

"It's hard to buy it, right?" Chen Yu's heart moved, and he asked hesitantly.

"As long as it's not the county guard of Shenzhou, the county guard of the other eight states can buy it as long as you have money." Li Ren said.

"The county guard of Jianghai County, how much can I buy it?" Chen Yu asked.

"If other people come to buy it, it will cost at least five million taels of silver, if Brother Chen buys it, five hundred jars of this kind of good wine, plus 500,000 taels of silver, after the matter is completed, give me 50,000 taels of silver, how about it?" Li Ren asked with a smile.

"If this matter is successful, I will give Steward Li 100,000 taels of silver, 50 jars of good wine, and 100 pieces of soap." Chen Yu said.

"What is soap?" Li Ren asked suspiciously.

"It's this thing, and the effect is similar to soap." Chen Yu took out a piece of white soap.

"Brother Chen, a word is a certainty." Li Ren said.

"Steward Li, I don't dare to lie to you, right?" Chen Yu asked with a smile.

"Wait for my news." After Li Ren finished speaking, he hugged a jar of general drunkenness, picked up the soap on the table, and quickly turned around and left.

Back at the house, Chen Yu counted the silver in his hand and found that there were only more than 278,000 taels, counting the more than 20,000 taels of gold, it was only more than 480,000 taels of silver, and there were still more than 100,000 taels of silver left behind 600,000 taels of silver.

Li Gao is 500,000 taels, Li Ren is 100,000 taels, and the total is 600,000 taels.

"Take all those jewels and sell them!" Chen Yu said.

"Yes, my lord!" Chen Bao nodded and took people out to sell jewelry.

From Hushan County to the Imperial City, he killed many bandits along the way and obtained a lot of gold and silver treasures.

At dusk, Li Gao left the palace and returned to the Li Mansion.

"Sir." Li Ren hurried up to greet him.

Seeing that the other party's expression was different, Li Gao asked, "What's the matter?"

"Sir, I found some fine wine outside." Li Ren said with a smile.

"Good wine, such a beautiful wine, it is hard to find in the world, it is much stronger than tribute wine, where did you get it?" Li Gao said.

"I got it from someone who wanted to buy an official." Li Ren hurriedly said.

"What official does he want to buy?" Li Gao asked with a smile.

"The county guard of Jianghai County." Li Ren said.

"How much money does he have?" Li Gao asked again.

"500,000 taels of silver, 500 jars of this good wine." Li Ren said.

"It's okay to say that the county guard is in some trouble." Li Gao hesitated.

"Master, the name of the person who bought the official is Chen Yu, and in addition to fine wine, he also has this kind of soap, if you offer fine wine and soap to Your Majesty......" Li Ren said with a fluttering eyebrow.

"How much good did he give you?" Li Gao asked suddenly.

"One hundred thousand taels of silver, fifty jars of good wine, and five hundred pieces of soap." Li Ren said stubbornly.

"Let him prepare 500,000 taels of silver, 500 jars of good wine, 1,000 pieces of soap, and let him get a few good poems." Li Gao said.

"Yes, sir." Li Ren breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, your share, hand over eighty percent." Li Gao said.

"Yes, sir." Li Ren nodded in response.

The next morning, Chen Yu was invited to Piaoxiang Building.

"Chen Gongzi, your business has been settled." Li Ren said with a smile.

"Steward Li has worked hard." Chen Yu thanked.

"In addition to 500,000 taels of silver and 500 jars of good wine, my lord also needs 1,000 pieces of soap." Li Ren said.

"No problem." Chen Yu nodded in response.

"In addition, you have to prepare a few poems, whether you write them yourself or spend money to buy them." Li Ren said.

"Okay, before dusk, I'll send the things to the Li Mansion." Chen Yu said.

"That's for the best." Li Ren nodded.

After the two of them were full of wine and food, they walked out talking and laughing.

After buying a set of four treasures in the study, Chen Yu returned to the house and wrote five poems.

"My lord, it's all ready." Chen Bao said.

"Bring something and come with me." Chen Yu said.

"Yes, my lord!" Chen Bao responded loudly, commanded a few of his subordinates, and drove the carriage out of the house.

"Li Mansion is heavy, idle and others, and they are not allowed to approach." The soldiers guarding the door shouted proudly.

"I made an appointment with Steward Li, please let me know." Chen Yu handed the other party two taels of silver.

"Wait here." After the soldier finished speaking, he walked briskly inside.

Ten minutes later, Li Ren walked out and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, please inside!"

"Steward Li, everything is here, you check it." Chen Yu said.

After having someone check it, Li Ren asked, "Brother Chen, where are your poems?"

"Please also ask Steward Li to take a look." Chen Yu took out five pieces of rice paper from his arms.

"I don't understand poetry, so I don't read it." Li Ren said.

"Manager Li, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Chen Yu said.

"When it's done, I'll go find you." Li Ren said with a smile.

"Okay!" Chen Yu arched his hand and left with his subordinates.

At dusk, Li Gao, who returned to the Li Mansion, looked at a few poems and couldn't help but praise: "Good, good, good!"

"Master, I have let people move money and wine into the treasure house." Li Ren said.

"Bring out a jar of fine wine, and I'll have a good drink." Li Gao said.

"I'll go get it." Li Ren answered and walked quickly outside.

The next morning, in the imperial study of the palace.

"Your Majesty, this is the wine I found." Li Gao picked up a jar of general drunk and walked quickly into the imperial study.

"The wine in Aiqing's mouth must not be ordinary, pour me a glass quickly." Zhou Ci, the emperor of the Great Zhou Empire, said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, please taste it." Li Gao drank a glass first and poured another glass in front of the other party.

"Good wine, good wine, good wine." Zhou Ci couldn't help but praise.

"Your Majesty, Jianghai County guards corruption and perverts the law...... It's better to change someone to be the county guard. Li Gao said.

"Li Aiqing thinks whoever is suitable, let whoever is the county guard of Jianghai County." Zhou Ci said disappreciatively.

"The minister recommends Chen Yu, a talented son of Hushan County......" Li Gao said with a river in his mouth.

"Is his poetry really that good?" Zhou Ci asked suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is a poem written by Chen Yu, a genius in Hushan County." Li Gao took out a few pieces of rice paper.

"Such a good talent should be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, and the intention is ......," Zhou Ci said.
