Chapter 861: Cliff Bottom Romance 1
"Why does it have to be Seihachi?" Cui Yan asked.
Even if Seihachi has extraordinary talent, he will be able to become a very good person in the future. However, he was only four years old at the time.
A four-year-old baby who is the master of the Bloody Guard...... It's crazy just thinking about it.
"The Bloody Guards and the Secret Gate are both forces in the royal shadows, but they are also different. There is not much connection between the two generations of the person in charge of the secret door, and the master of the bloody guard can only come from the inheritance family. Xiao Yu said, "I don't know the specific reason, I only know that in this world, the Cheng family is the most loyal force to the Xiao family!" ”
It can even be said that even if everyone in the world betrays the Xiao family, the Cheng family will not. They have been used by the Xiao family for generations, and when the Xiao family has not yet grasped power, they are the Xiao family's henchmen and loyal ministers, and they have trained countless killers for the Xiao family!
Xiao Yu said, "And the inheritance family has been a man for generations, an only son." ”
He had no choice but to do so.
"What was the reason for the establishment of the Shura Gate in the first place?"
Cui Yan tightened her eyebrows, isn't it more useful for such a force to hide in the shadows?
Xiao Yu's face crossed with a hint of embarrassment, and then said lightly, "Lack of money." ”
What else, faster than a killer, a pro-army organization to get money? Of course, Kaiqinglou is also very profitable, but there are too many places where he needs to use money, and that money is not enough to stuff his teeth.
Cui Yan twitched the corner of her mouth.
An emperor who is extremely short of money and does not hesitate to let his subordinates do murderous and excessive goods...... Cui Yan looked at Xiao Yu's handsome face, and suddenly felt a little disillusioned.
"Cui Yan, what kind of eyes are you!" Xiao Yu almost didn't get angry, "What's wrong with the lack of money, how many emperors have been rich throughout the ages?" ”
Besides, even if the treasury is full, it is the state's money, and it is convenient to withdraw it from your own private treasury.
"Nothing." Cui Yan pursed her lips and said, "I heard that the Jiang family is quite rich, although I don't know how much money it has, but ah, since Cui Haoran can be remembered like this, the number must be very objective." Xiao Yu, I've thought about it, let's work together to share the money. ”
"Cooperation?" Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows.
No one hates money, and Xiao Yu is no exception, but he is not enough to worry about a woman's money.
Xiao Yu said, "Cui Yan, you have thought clearly. The Jiang family has been an imperial merchant for generations, and has accumulated since the previous dynasty, mainly selling gold and jade, and mastering the world's most superb mining, smelting, and carving technology. It is heard that the Jiang family also owns its own independent and private gold and jade mines. ”
The Jiang family was able to survive the war at the end of the previous dynasty and continue to this day because in this world, no one has the ability of the Jiang family.
Taking the gold mines as an example, although the gold mines in the Great Zhou Dynasty are not as many as those in Yasukuni and Rongguo, there are several places, but they all have various problems. Either the gold content is insufficient, or the smelting process is unable to extract high concentrations of gold......
If it is only used as a currency for transactions, the fineness of the gold refined by the imperial court is sufficient, but if it is used as utensils and jewelry, it will not work.
As for jade, this is even more so, in addition to the fineness of the jade, the value of the jade is also very relevant to its own carving process.
And the Jiang family has the best craftsmen in the world.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the heyday of the Jiang family, half of the gold and jade ornaments in the world came from the Jiang family.
