Chapter 763: Disaster on the coast
After a month, Elder Ma's car appeared at the gate of the Alliance Academy again.
Like last time, Lei Shaoyuan did not go out to greet him in person, on the grounds that he was going to the toilet, which was really inconvenient.
The old guy is getting more and more excessive, and last time he at least found a reasonable reason, and this time he simply used as an excuse.
If it was in normal times, Elder Ma would have been angry a long time ago, and he had to scold Lei Shaoyuan in person to relieve the hatred in his heart.
But now the situation is different, who let themselves have to ask for others, plus the hurry, did not let people come to inform in advance, and it is understandable that the owner did not go out to greet him.
A few minutes later, he came to Lei Shaoyuan's office.
Lei Shaoyuan is settling accounts, and with so much money earned, it is necessary to plan carefully, otherwise he will not be able to stand up to squandering and waste, and one day he will sit on a mountain and eat nothing.
Seeing Elder Ma come in, he was reluctant to put down his calculations, stood up and said, "Elder Ma is here, and his subordinates have missed the distance, forgive your sins." ”
Elder Ma waved his hand very hypocritically: "Dean Lei is polite, you and I are both members of the Council of Elders, and we have worked together for many years, so we don't need those red tapes. ”
Lei Shaoyuan really didn't say anything polite to him, and casually pointed to the chair next to him: "Elder Ma, please take a seat, you are here, do you have any advice?"
"I don't dare to give advice. Elder Ma had to maintain a gentle attitude, sat down on his own, and said, "Elder Ben has something to ask for, and I also ask Dean Lei for help." ”
Lei Shaoyuan pretended to be surprised: "Elder Ma has an extraordinary status, and he is a person with hands and eyes, how can I help?"
This is deliberately pretending to be stupid, with his IQ, even with his toes, he can think of Elder Ma's purpose.
It just so happened that Elder Ma couldn't get a seizure, so he took a deep breath and said, "I heard that Elder Ye left the Divine Realm and went to the Holy Heaven Continent, it stands to reason that after such a long time of competition, he should take a good rest, but Elder Ben announced in public in the morning that he would play an extra game, he is a player representing the youth group, and he left the Divine Realm at such an important time, and the game could not be carried out as scheduled, Elder Ben was very embarrassed." ”
Lei Shaoyuan said in his heart You deserve it, who asked you to treat everyone as a monkey, privately manipulate the game and make a fortune, and now that you have lost money, you remember the importance of others, don't you think it's too late?
Seeing that the other party didn't pick up, Elder Ma blushed, and then said, "Because the stakes are very high, and Elder Ben is not familiar with the Holy Heaven Continent, I also asked Dean Lei to come forward and find Elder Ye back, so that the competition can be held as scheduled." ”
Ever since he became a member of the Presbyterian Church, he had never spoken to anyone so lowly.
"Held as scheduled?" Lei Shaoyuan chuckled lightly and said, "Elder Ma's request, I'm afraid that my position will not be able to fulfill it." ”
Elder Ma hurriedly changed his words: "It's a bit difficult to achieve, after all, the Divine Realm is far away from the Holy Heaven Continent, and it takes a lot of time to come and go, Elder Ben has already ordered the date of the competition to be postponed, and asked Elder Lei Yucheng to do this." ”
Lei Shaoyuan raised his head and glanced at him, then put down his abacus and said, "Let me go to the Holy Heaven Continent, it's okay!" But I can't guarantee how long it will take to bring Yun Yang back, and I can't guarantee that I will be able to bring him back. ”
Seeing that he was relieved, Elder Ma said with a happy face: "As long as Dean Lei comes forward, he will definitely succeed immediately, Elder Ye will still give face to others." Elder Ben has a reluctant request, can Dean Lei leave immediately, the time is really urgent. ”
Lei Shaoyuan snorted: "I have to prepare." ”
Elder Ma was anxious: "What is there to prepare for?"
"Why not, I can't go empty-handed. Lei Shaoyuan's eyes widened, and he said very unceremoniously: "Although I am a guest over there, shouldn't I bring some gifts to the host?
Elder Ma's face turned red, Lei Shaoyuan meant to mock him, he actually came empty-handed to ask someone to do something, who do you think you are, is your face very valuable?
Lei Shaoyuan continued: "And the most important point, I don't have a shuttle, how can I go?"
"Elder Ben is out of the gift, and I will send it to the shuttle. Elder Ma gritted his teeth and said.
"That's pretty much it. Lei Shaoyuan snorted: "It's finally a bit of a begging for help, then ask Elder Ma to hurry up and prepare, and when these things are in place, you can only set off when your post is in place, isn't it?"
Elder Ma took a deep breath and stood up to leave.
"Sit down a little longer, I haven't even ordered tea yet. The old man pretended to say that he didn't plan to invite Elder Ma to tea at all.
Elder Ma forcibly held back the anger in his heart and said, "No, Elder Ben still has to prepare things, someone will come to pick up Dean Lei later, please leave the matter of Elder Ye back to you, and say goodbye." ”
With that, he strode away quickly.
Lei Shaoyuan waited for him to go away, and snorted coldly: "You also have today, you deserve it!"
......
The Han Empire, the imperial capital of the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Liu Rong personally accompanied Ye Yunyang to pick up the wind and wash the dust.
In the extravagant dining room, the huge mahogany tables are filled with delicacies, and there are as many as 30 eunuchs and palace maids who are responsible for serving, serving, and pouring wine.
On one side of the restaurant, dozens of court musicians are playing music, melodious tunes.
Ye Yunyang sat opposite the emperor, surrounded by Liu Yuying, Dongfang Yixue and Ying Qi.
The three girls ate very little, and kept helping him with vegetables.
After a moment of ventilation, he put down his chopsticks, and Liu Yuying picked up a handkerchief to help him wipe the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.
Liu Rong didn't speak all the time, and now he finally couldn't help it, and said, "Yun Yang, haven't you eaten for months?"
"Of course not, I've never eaten anything so good. Ye Yunyang swallowed all the things in his mouth.
"It seems that the Divine Realm is not a good place either, you are already in the position of alternate elder, and you will be hungry like this. Liu Rong shook his head and said.
Ye Yunyang said: "Who said no! After experiencing the beast tide, the living conditions of the Protoss are much worse than before, and many people can't eat enough, at least I haven't been hungry, it's already very good." ”
All kinds of materials in the divine realm are scarce, and money can't buy them, and they are not even as chic as barbarians, as long as they are diligent when hunting, they can at least eat meat at a meal.
"In that case, why don't we ship our things to the Divine Realm and sell them to the Protoss at a high price?" Ying Qi proposed.
Among the three daughters, she is the most financially savvy.
The Shengtian Continent is rich in products, especially grain crops, because the two empires have abandoned their previous suspicions and no longer fight, the consumption of military rations, which originally accounted for the majority, has been reduced by seventy percent, resulting in a surplus of grain and a sharp drop in prices.
In order to avoid the serious consequences of hurting the peasants caused by the price reduction of grain, the two empires encouraged the common people to raise livestock, which on the one hand could consume the surplus grain, and on the other hand, increase the quantity of poultry, eggs, and meat, and fundamentally improve the quality of life of the people.
On the other hand, in the Divine Realm, there is a huge shortage of food, not to mention other living materials, which can just become a dumping ground for the Holy Heaven Continent.
Ye Yunyang said with a straight face: "I have thought about this, although it can be profitable, but it is difficult to implement, first of all, we must go through the level of the Elders' Council, deal with those old stubborns, and be able to annoy people to death;
Ying Qi immediately retorted: "You have gotten into the tip of the horns, and you are clever but you are mistaken by your cleverness! Why do you want to transport the money you earn back and buy pills, medicinal herbs, rare metals, and other items directly in the divine realm, those things are very important to us." ”
Ye Yunyang's eyes lit up: "Yes, why didn't I expect it! In this way, the Divine Realm and the Holy Heaven Continent will become a trade relationship, and both sides will have to make money, and the level of the Elder Council will become easier to pass." ”
Emperor Liu Rong also felt that it was feasible, and said: "As long as you can handle the Council of Elders, I will personally send people to take care of the material preparations to ensure that all kinds of material resources are continuously transported to the Divine Realm." ”
It is an indisputable fact that the money of the Protoss is easy to make, and it has been demonstrated from the previous trade of flying wings for shuttles, which not only helped the two empires to build four new production lines, increased the output of flying wings, and promoted the development of related industries, but also in exchange for shuttles with higher technology content, it is simply a profit.
Ye Yunyang nodded and said, "No problem, when I go back, I'll go to the four elders to talk about this matter." ”
At this time, there was a whisper outside the door, as if someone had an argument.
Liu Rong said with displeasure: "Whoever is making noise outside, didn't I say it, to catch the wind for King Pingnan, no one or anything should be disturbed!"
The old eunuch walked in from outside, bowed his head and bowed his waist, and said: "Your Majesty is angry, the military department Shangshu sent someone to send an urgent letter, which is related to military affairs, and the servants dare not fail to report it, and they are afraid of disturbing Your Majesty and the Yaxing of the King of Pingnan, so they quarreled." ”
Liu Rong was about to get angry, but Ye Yunyang took the first step and said: "What is the major military matter, let's hear about it." ”
"What can happen, since I ascended the throne, the four seas have been leveled, and it is obvious that it is grandstanding. Liu Rong said cheekily.
The so-called Sihai Shengping is not bragging, but it is by no means because he came to the throne for the emperor, but after Ye Yunyang destroyed the Demon Emperor, the two empires gradually eliminated the remaining demon beasts and orcs, and the situation improved.
The prince let him say, but the emperor didn't let him say it, and the old eunuch didn't know whether to say it or not, so he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
It stands to reason that the emperor is older than the prince, but Ye Yunyang's title of King of Pingnan is different, if it weren't for Liu Rong's father-in-law's identity, I'm afraid he would have to be respectful to him.
It's the same on Daqin's side, because of the relationship between Ye Feng and Ying Luoyue, Ye Yunyang is ostensibly the emperor's son-in-law and courtier, but no one dares to really use him as a courtier.
Of course, Liu Yuying stood on the side of his own man, and said: "Father-in-law Xu, since King Pingnan asked you to say it, you can say it." ”
With the support of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the old eunuch relented and said: "General Dai Jingwei of Jinghai wrote a letter, saying that within three days, six coastal areas were attacked by pirates and suffered heavy losses. He sent troops to chase and intercept many times, and even set up ambushes to lure the enemy, but in the end all in vain, pirates have become a climate, and there is no trace, he really has no choice, ask His Majesty to send capable people to help suppress the thieves. ”
Liu Rong frowned and said, "Dai Jingwei's shrewd and capable person will be stumped by a group of pirates. ”
Ye Yunyang asked, "What kind of pirates are that?"
The old eunuch replied, "A group of second-generation orcs, they could no longer live on land, so they fled to a desert island and started to make a living by robbing houses and houses. Originally, General Jinghai's process of suppressing thieves was very smooth, but after encountering this group of pirates, he didn't take advantage of it once, and he was tired all day long, not to mention, and he also lost a group of elite soldiers. ”
Seeing that Ye Yunyang also frowned, the eunuch hurriedly added: "That group of people is very strong, they always take advantage of the night to land quietly, rob coastal towns as quickly as possible, and then flee to the sea and disappear without a trace. Whether it was the ships of the navy or the flying wings in the air, none of them had ever seen what the pirate captain looked like, and General Jinghai was about to die of sorrow. ”
