She was only 17 years old when she first arrived in Yunguo, and now she is 22 years old, in six years she has gone from a student to the head of the household in Yunguo, and the strength of Yunguo itself and Yang Xingchen's strength have increased the economic development of Yunguo tenfold, not only economically but also militarily. Such a talent, when she proposed to resign and return to China, the Emperor of Yunguo did not agree.

In fact, Yang Xingchen wanted to go back very early, but the emperor threatened her to send troops to attack Chu if she went back, Chu had just experienced the attack of Zhao, Wu, and Zhou, although it was victorious, but it suffered heavy losses, if Yun Guo took advantage of the danger at this time, Chu State would definitely be annexed by Yun State.

After she ran away once and was arrested, she has been under house arrest in Shangshu Mansion, every day in addition to dealing with official business, it is official business, even if she can go out several times a year, the emperor comes to her to discuss state affairs, and she is densely packed with officers and soldiers, she has been imprisoned for two years, and it has been three years in a month.

It was late at night after the official business was done, so I got up and walked and opened the window, it was snowing heavily, and the plum blossoms in the courtyard were very gorgeous.

Song Zhi put the tea on the table, added some charcoal to the basin and walked to her side, "Teacher, what are you looking at?" ”

Yang Xingchen put his arm around her shoulder, "You see that the flower is white and red, and the petals are lubricated and transparent, like amber or jasper carving, a little ice and jade." Some are as bright as the morning glow, some are as white as snow, and some are as green as jasper. ”

Song Zhi nodded, "The plum blossoms are beautiful, but it's too cold, teacher, you're not in good health, let's close the window."

After the two sat down, Song Zhi poured tea for her, "Teacher drink tea." ”

Yang Xingchen picked up the cup, blew and took a sip, and asked how it was, "How is it?" ”

Song Zhi took a pen and wrote on the paper, "Send it out safely, the place in the dog cave is relatively remote and it snows heavily, I didn't see anyone guarding it when I got out, and I dealt with all the footprints when I came back." ”

Yang Xingchen nodded: "Go to bed early." ”

"Okay." Song Zhi threw the paper into the fire and burned it, got up and exited the teacher's room.

Two months later, the emperor summoned Yang Xingchen again, and when he went out, many officers and soldiers surrounded the water and went all the way to the imperial study.

Yang Xingchen saluted respectfully, "Weichen see the emperor." ”

The emperor was angry, "Yang Xingchen! Yang Xingchen! I never thought of sending so many officers and soldiers to watch, but you still have the ability to send messages outside. ”

Seeing her kneel and not speak, he was even more angry: "Your country is poor and has nothing now, what are you going to do when you go back?" You will soon become the prime minister of Yunguo here, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, and my Yunguo will not treat you badly, and whatever good you have will be given to you first. With such treatment, did you think that your brain was kicked by a donkey, and you can't think of going back to Chu State. ”

Yang Xingchen looked up at him and said, "I'm sorry, I disappointed your expectations, and Weichen still has to go back." ”

The emperor had a headache when he saw that she didn't eat oil and salt, "If you want to go back, you can give up everything you have here, and you can't take anything with you." ”

"Yes! "She agreed without hesitation, as long as she could return to China, she would agree."

"Let's go down." The emperor was afraid that he would regret it when he saw her.

"Wechen retired."

Yang Xingchen came out of the imperial study and someone came to pick her up, and there were no more dense officers and soldiers on the way back, she seemed to be released after completing her sentence.

Song Zhi asked curiously: "Teacher, why are all those officers and soldiers gone?" ”

"Because the emperor agreed that we should go home, the officers and soldiers themselves withdrew."

Song Zhi jumped up happily: "Then I'll go pack up and set off tomorrow." As he spoke, he was about to run into the house and was stopped by Yang Xingchen, "Why are you so excited, the emperor said that it's okay for us to go, but we can't take anything with us, let's change our clothes and leave tomorrow." ”

Song Zhi pursed his lips unhappily, "How can the emperor be like this, everything here is something we have worked hard to earn, and you don't let us take a little away, it's really stingy, hum!" ”

"Don't be upset, this Yun Country is the richest in our Shangshu Mansion except for the emperor, this money can maintain the operation of the country for at least ten years, do you think he will let you take it away? It would be nice to let you go. Yang Xingchen funnily pinched her puffed cheeks.

Song Zhi's round eyes rolled, "It seems to be right." He happily took the teacher's hand and entered the room.

Just after dinner, an uninvited guest came, Song Zhi picked up the broom and drove him, "Song Liao, what are you doing bastard?" Feel rolled! Bad luck! ”

Song Liao hid behind Yang Xingchen: "Zhizhi, don't be like this. ”

"You stay away from my teacher, you traitor is not worthy to appear in front of us." Song Zhi hated Song Liao to the core, both of them were the second batch of international students sent by the state to study in Yunguo, and it happened that Yang Xingchen was the teacher who taught them, Yang Xingchen was not only a teacher but also a senior sister, because the two of them were relatively good, and the teacher left the two of them by his side after graduation, but Song Liao, a dog thing, couldn't withstand the temptation of power and money.

often reported to the emperor, and the emperor secretly put some medicine in the teacher's meals that could control people, and now the teacher's health is getting worse and worse, and they are still having a face.

"I heard that you were leaving, so I wanted to send you off, I have no ill intentions." Song Liao winked innocently at Song Zhi.

Song Zhi was so disgusted that he was about to vomit, "Made, Lao Tzu will kill you today!" ”

Yang Xingchen was very angry at Song Liao's betrayal at first, but then he didn't care about human nature, "You go, you don't need it." ”

"I heard that there was no lackey for you, get out!" Song Zhi unceremoniously drove Song Liao away.

When they left the city, someone from the Chu State came to pick them up, and she knew that the emperor let her go so easily, it must be that the country and the Yun State had made some deal.

Two months later, they finally returned to the Chu State, and Zhuang Baisong, the prime minister of the Chu State, personally came to pick them up and take them to the palace.

The emperor had already set up a banquet waiting for them, and Yang Xingchen was a little surprised when he saw the emperor, "Senior Brother He?" "Although they are from the same school, she has also seen him a few times, but she didn't expect He Yu to be the emperor?

Zhuang Baisong looked at the emperor and looked at her, "You know?" ”

Chu He looked at Yang Xingchen, "Senior sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, welcome back to Chu State." ”

A few people chatted until late at night before going back, Chu He gave her a courtyard in the south of the capital to live in, and her grandparents and parents had been waiting for her there for a long time.

It was not easy for the family to reunite, so she accompanied them to drink tea and chat and walk around when she had nothing to do, and within a few days she began to take up the position of the secretary of the household department of Chu State.

She asked her senior brother if it was not good to be in charge of the treasury as soon as he came, and he said that you are in charge of the treasury of the Yun State very well, and the Chu State will definitely be able to do the same.

She admired Chu He a lot, in the face of the siege of three countries, he led his troops to kill the enemy, and defeated them in one dozen or three.

The treasury of the State of Chu is basically empty, and there are only 800 million taels of gold left, and the country has to spend money everywhere, and these 800 million taels will not last long at all.

"Teacher, our country is too poor, it's not a way to go on like this." Song Zhi looked at the ledger and fell into deep thought. But she soon found out that the country originally had 2.7 billion taels of gold, and she didn't know where to use 1.9 billion.

The people below said they didn't know, and Song Zhi said that if they didn't find it, they would make you look good!

Forced to say that it was Chu and Yun Guo who negotiated, Yun Guo said that if he wanted Yang Xingchen Shangshu to come back, he had to give 580,000 taels of gold, and the emperor sent the prime minister to negotiate with Yang Xingchen at all costs, and finally in exchange for 190,000 taels of gold, he almost emptied his family.

Song Zhi and the teacher looked at each other, and they knew that there must be something wrong with the Emperor of Yunguo letting them go so easily.

Yang Xingchen's eyes instantly turned cold, she had done so much for Yunguo, and in the end she still counted her country, very good!

She and Chu He applied for 200 million taels of gold to do business, Chu He didn't even think about it, he approved this junior sister He believed it, otherwise he wouldn't let her come back at all costs.

"Senior brother, do you give the restaurant a name? I'm going to get a plaque, and business will be booming. ”

Chu He wrote down a few words on the first floor of the world with a stroke of a pen on rice paper, although the name is a bit earthy, but I have to say that the words are very beautiful.

After the first floor of the world is built, not only the appearance of the atmosphere is luxurious, the first floor of the world is written very domineering, attracting a large number of people to enter the store after the experience, there are many repeat customers, and there are many new customers, almost full every day.

The reason why there are so many people on the first floor of the world is because of the good environment, good service, dishes, desserts, songs and dances are all a must, because they are all made by the imperial kitchen, and the songs and dances are selected from the dancers in the palace.

Chu He knew that the imperial chef was unwilling to teach his cooking skills, so why did he agree? asked her curiously, "How do you say that the imperial chefs in the entire imperial dining room accept apprentices, and they are willing to teach themselves the skills of eating." Yang Xingchen was lying on the toise chair leisurely eating grapes, "I keep brainwashing them every day, how can there be any teaching apprentices to starve to death of the master, only those who will not lead the team to work until they die, don't you want your food to flourish?" And you accept apprentices not only to pass on your own dishes, but also to bring taxes to the country, the country needs money for development, and the country will die poor by paying taxes. They thought what I said made sense and agreed. ”

"It's you!" Chu He gave him a thumbs up, she was really good at doing business.

Not only restaurants but also inns, salt, cloth, clothing, breeding, transportation, money villages, gold shops, shopping malls and other businesses are very good.

The business is so good, not only the family, but also some businessmen are red-eyed, the boss of Cha is just an ordinary person with no background, and it is impossible to open such a big restaurant without any background, and everyone does not dare to act rashly.

The Han family has been engaged in this business for several generations, and it is the first time to meet such a strong opponent, and it has been two years since it opened, and the business has only increased. Yang Xingchen found out that the Han family did it, and other families asked them to compensate ten times the price until they put the restaurant back to its original state.

Chu He has long been unaccustomed to several big families, and always wants to use his power to suppress him to control the court and even the country.

The Han family has malicious competition, and its hands are stained with the blood of countless people. Buying and selling women has killed many people, and no one dares to say it because of their power.

He asked his subordinates to find someone to release all the black material he had collected.

This matter is very big, and the government immediately investigated the Han family, and it is true that all assets were seized and handed over to the state treasury. Those who committed crimes should be killed, those who should be imprisoned, and the innocent people were released.

The Han family seized 230 billion taels of gold, 200 billion taels of silver, as well as various antique vases, calligraphy and paintings, grain land deeds, shops, gold, silver, jewelry, etc.

Sometimes the money earned by the state is not enough, and this money can help the country to develop further.
