Chapter 486: Lust for Profit
After the investigation of the secret agents of the East Factory, the trajectory of Mike's activities in Dawei was basically determined.
Mike and his party landed at the southern end of Nanming, and then went all the way north, marking many places.
Those marked places should be very suitable for planting yellow spring flowers.
Mike's cheeks twitched, and he knew very well why Wei Xiaobao asked.
Along the way, their movements seem to be secretive, but they are actually very high-profile.
Especially in those places that are suitable for planting yellow spring flowers, they tried their best to persuade local officials to let them plant secretly.
After this matter was leaked in Shangshui Town, it should not be difficult for the Great Wei Imperial Court to find out.
There is no point in continuing to lie now.
Mike took a deep breath and smiled: "Nine thousand years old guessed correctly, it is the Mike in Liu Yougun's mouth." ”
Since he didn't bother to change a pseudonym, he must have no fear.
The considerable profits behind the Huangquan flower will definitely make the Great Wei court, which is overwhelmed by the treasury.
Even if he heard it along the way, he was emphasizing that the nine-thousand-year-old would only serve the people wholeheartedly, but in the face of gold and silver, how could there be anyone in this world who was not willing to fall?
Tie Feixue frowned.
The evil deeds committed by Mike and Liu Yougun in Sheung Shui Town are not exaggerated to be beheaded.
"Nine thousand years old, about how to use Huangquan flowers to fill the treasury, I have already talked to the Queen Mother in detail, and the Queen Mother agrees very much, just wait for the nine thousand years old to come back and nod." Having said that, Mike simply stopped selling off.
At this moment, Huang Fu was very nervous, afraid that Wei Xiaobao would suddenly attack.
With Wei Xiaobao's temper, even if she killed Mike on the spot, she would not be surprised.
Wei Xiaobao stretched out his hand and gently brushed the plum branches growing in the garden, his movements were gentle and gentle, but his mouth said: "Presumably Mr. Mike also knows very well that Great Wei is surrounded by the sea, icebergs and deserts, even if a large number of Huangquan flowers can be grown, who should they sell them to?" ”
"There is no need to worry about this nine thousand years old, there are many small countries around the empire where the sun never sets, and what the people of those countries need most is Huangquanhua, they will not be able to live without Huangquanhua, we can not only make money in this way, but also help those people through the suffering, which is a good thing." Since Mike planned to have a good talk with Wei Xiaobao, he naturally had to let go of his hands and feet and do his best.
Michael's proposal made Huang Fu very tempted.
The growth cycle of Huangquan flowers is relatively short, it can be planted several times a year, and the yield is also amazing.
The key is to make a finished product from the fruit of the yellow spring flower, which is expensive and very profitable.
According to Mike, as long as the Great Wei court agrees, within a year, the Great Wei State will be able to make the Great Wei State rich and the people safe.
But Mike didn't say a word about the disadvantages of Huangquanhua.
Although after being castrated, Wei Xiaobao lost the greatest pleasure of being a man, which made his psychology a little dark, but he has not degenerated to the point where he needs to make a fortune on drugs.
Looking at Mike, who was in a river, Wei Xiaobao smiled and asked, "Mr. Mike, what do you think if I plan to sell Huangquan flowers to the Sunset Empire?" ”
Mike's face changed dramatically, and he couldn't speak.
The queen strictly forbade that no product of the Yellow Springs could circulate within the empire on which the sun never sets.
Still, in private, there are people who will take risks for money.
But if you really want to sell the finished products of Huangquan flowers in the Sunset Empire on a large scale, Mike doesn't have the guts.
But when he thought about it, Wei Xiaobao's words were obviously mocking.
"Nine thousand years old is really humorous." Mike chuckled.
When you are embarrassed, a confident and polite smile is the best weapon to resolve the embarrassment.
Wei Xiaobao even suspected that this Mike was not an envoy sent by the Sun Never Setting Empire at all, but a complete profiteer.
Wei Xiaobao laughed a few times, and then said to Tie Feixue: "Feixue, take your envoy down to rest." ”
"Mr. Mack, please come here." Tie Feixue stretched out her hand and said.
Mike still has a smile on his face, he is not afraid of rejection, and it is the most terrible thing not to be rejected.
There is no rush in this matter, and it is completely possible to take your time.
He saluted Huang Fu before following Tie Feixue away.
"Mr. Mike, take your stuff." But soon Wei Xiaobao's voice came from behind him.
Mike was about to turn back when he felt the sound of a sharp blade breaking through the air.
He quickly turned, reaching out and grabbing something flying.
It was, of course, his most cherished sword.
This sword was originally being played with by Li Changqing, but Wei Xiaobao just waved his hand, and the sword flew straight towards Mike.
Judging from Mike's reaction to the sword, this guy is obviously also a master.
Mike clenched his fist at Wei Xiaobao, and quickly left with Tie Feixue.
The sword in his hand suddenly disappeared, making Li Changqing very unhappy, and he sat on the ground sulking.
Huang Fu asked Ruyi to take a few pieces of dim sum and coax Li Changqing.
Wei Xiaobao stepped into the pavilion and asked in a deep voice, "What is the high opinion of the Queen Mother?" ”
"Xiaobao, I think Mr. Mack's proposal is worth trying, now the treasury is empty, natural disasters continue to ......" After learning of Michael's plan, Huang Fu could dream that the treasury was full of gold and silver.
Only when you have money in hand can you live without worry.
Wei Xiaobao frowned and said, "What if you cooperate with Mike, you will destroy Great Wei?" ”
"I understand your worries, Xiaobao, and Mr. Mack also told me that once you ...... to Garo If Huangquan Flower is addicted, it will be difficult to quit until it is emaciated and died, but we will not sell this thing to the people of Dawei, and it should be fine. Huang Fu calmed down, knowing that if she wanted to persuade Wei Xiaobao, it was not so simple, and she needed to take her time.
Wei Xiaobao laughed and said: "100,000 taels of disaster relief silver will be distributed, and in the end, less than 1,000 taels will be in the hands of the victims, how can the Queen Mother ensure that those corrupt officials will not do anything in secret and poison my people of Great Wei?" ”
"This is the need for the supervision of Dongchang and Jinyiwei." Huang Fu had already guessed that Wei Xiaobao would say this.
Her answer was seamless, and it seemed that she was determined to work with Mike.
At this moment, in Huang Fu's eyes, it is obvious that he can only see gold, silver and jewelry.
As for those whose homes were ruined by Huangquan flowers, she didn't care at all.
Wei Xiaobao felt that there would be no results if he continued to deepen the exchange on this issue, so he just asked: "Destroy the homes of innocent people from other countries, and then count their hard-earned money by yourself, I wonder if the Queen Mother can feel at ease?" ”
Huang Fu's body trembled slightly, she had never thought about this problem.
Wei Xiaobao strode away, not even looking at Li Changqing, who was still sitting on the ground and losing his temper.
Huang Fu stood up and looked at the direction Wei Xiaobao left, feeling very uneasy.
It can be seen that Wei Xiaobao is very angry because of this incident.
Outside the Xuanwu Gate.
Tie Feixue had just sent Mike away, and was about to go back to find Wei Xiaobao, but saw that Wei Xiaobao had already walked out of the Xuanwu Gate.
"Overseer, what did the Queen Mother say?" Tie Feixue frowned and asked.
Wei Xiaobao smiled: "I think she is determined to make black money with Mike." ”
Tie Feixue also felt that the method proposed by Mike was extremely inappropriate.
The people of Great Wei are human beings, and the people of other countries are also human beings, if they want to harm the innocent people of other countries with their conscience for money, then they are the most terrifying devils in the world.
"What does the Overseer think?" Tie Feixue wanted to know Wei Xiaobao's thoughts.
Wei Xiaobao smiled: "If you really want to sell Huangquan flowers, I think you can only sell them to the Empire where the sun never sets." ”
Tie Feixue really wanted to say that the people of the empire where the sun never sets, but they are actually innocent.
But she knew that Wei Xiaobao's words were just a joke.
Wei Xiaobao turned around slowly, looking at Xuanwu Gate with cold eyes.
Not far away, Yue Poyu stood there, looking very nervous.
Seeing Wei Xiaobao waving at him, he hurriedly ran out and saluted, "What do you command at the age of nine thousand?" ”
Wei Xiaobao asked coldly, "How did Mike bring the saber in?" ”
Yue Poyu knew that Wei Xiaobao was going to ask about this matter.
Mike can enter the palace with a sword, which is naturally the will of Huang Fu.
However, the reason why Huang Fu can still sit in the seat of the queen mother is because of Wei Xiaobao's pity, and the last thing Wei Xiaobao wants to see is naturally Huang Fu re-establish his prestige.
"The Empress Dowager decrees, the lower officials dare not ......" Yue Poyu quickly knelt down to explain, his voice so small that he could hardly hear it.
Wei Xiaobao said in a cold voice: "Mike is from the distant empire where the sun never sets, and his identity is very likely not to be an envoy, but a profiteer, let him bring a sword into the palace, in case he hurts His Majesty and the Queen Mother, can Lord Yue afford it?" ”
"It's the lower officials who are confused, please condemn the nine thousand years old." Yue Poyu was sweating profusely.
Wei Xiaobao just counted a few words, and did not mean to punish Yue Poyu, and waved his hand and said: "Pay attention in the future, now that Great Wei has been discovered by more distant countries, when they take a fancy to Great Wei's products, they may provoke a war." ”
Yue Poyu didn't think so far, after letting Mike enter the palace with a sword, he deliberately found Zhan Sansi and asked Zhan Sansi to keep an eye on Mike at all times, and as long as Mike showed the slightest sign of bad intentions, he would immediately kill him.
Back at home, Wei Xiaobao's heart was still uneasy.
It shouldn't be difficult to get rid of Mike and his party.
But there will definitely be more Mikes to come, and it is imperative that Mike determine the location of the Sunset Empire.
At the same time, Wei Xiaobao decided to let Yelu Zhong lead people to continue to explore the desert, and it was best to be able to conquer the desert and go directly to the other side of the desert.
The country on the other side of the desert may be the empire on which the sun never sets.
The Huangquan Flower Fruits brought back from Ten Thousand Insect Island, Wei Xiaobao was all locked in the secret room in the mansion.
At this moment, he took out the book again and continued to study Huangquan Flower.
In the courtyard on the other side, Zhong Meng and Yang Simeng were making moves.
One is holding the Huolin Sword, the other is holding the Xuantie Heavy Sword, and the figure is shaking, and the sword is like the sun.
Ling Huchan and Nangong Yushang were in the pavilion on one side, roasting the brazier, sipping melon seeds, and watching the play with a smile.
Zhong Meng's strength is a little worse than Yang Simeng after all.
Yang Simeng obviously didn't use all his strength when he made a move.
In the duel with Yang Simeng, Zhong Meng can be said to have benefited a lot.
Today's Zhong Meng is used to women's clothes, mixing with a few stunning beauties all day long, and his temperament has slowly recovered to become a woman.
Zhong Meng didn't know whether such a change was good or bad.
After reading a book for a long time, it is inevitable that you will get bored.
Wei Xiaobao came to the window and could clearly hear the sound of fighting in the courtyard next to him.
After dinner, he continued to study the yellow spring flower.
Occasionally, a few firecrackers can be heard outside.
In two days, it will be the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
But at this moment, Wei Xiaobao suddenly heard a slight sound on the roof.
Although the sound was very light, with Wei Xiaobao's current skills, he could still detect it quickly.
That's someone walking on the roof.
Wei Xiaobao smiled at the corner of his mouth, he had moved into this mansion for a long time, but no assassin or thief had ever broken in.
The voice reached the top of his head and vanished, leaving the assassin standstill.
It was evident that he was the target of the Assassins.
Wei Xiaobao thought about yawning, stretching, blowing out the candle, taking off his shoes and lying on the bed.
The man was able to hold his breath and stayed on the roof without moving.
Wei Xiaobao is also very patient, and even waiting is a little sleepy.
After some time, the man jumped off the roof and rolled over and entered the room.
Wei Xiaobao deliberately didn't close the window just now, just to make it convenient for this assassin.
The man was black, masked, tall, and armed with a sword, slowly approaching the bed.
When he was close, the assassin drew his sword.
The long sword pierced into the bed, straight into the bed.
It felt like it had been stabbed into a person's body, which caused the assassin to let out a cheer.
But when he tried to pull the sword back, he found that it was like it was growing on a bed, and no matter how hard he tried, it would not move at all.
What's going on?
The assassin exerted his strength again, but the sword could not be withdrawn, and the incomparable fear invaded his heart in an instant.
