"Is the store there?"

Chen Liu turned around and walked to a corner, and finally found the small shop provided by Feng Shuai.

Although this shop is much better than the rod in the capital, it can be said to be a rather poor location in terms of business.

If you point to this place to earn 100,000 taels, it is really a bit of a fool's dream.

After Chen Liu knocked on the door, a yawning man came out, his clothes were crumpled, his eyes were deep-set, and he was sloppy.

Chen Liu saw it but couldn't help but exclaim:

"Brother Yuan?"

"You're finally here."

This man who is playing with his redundant hair is Yuan Ping, who has not been seen for a long time.

Yuan Ping opened the door, and a sour smell rushed out directly.

Of course he didn't mind, and kicked the bench for Chen Liu to sit down, while he lay down on the chair and drank casually.

"Hiccup~"

「…… I said, Brother Yuan, how long have you been lying here?"

Chen Liu touched the table and chair, and it was directly full of dust.

But he just wiped it casually, sat down, and asked about Yuan Ping's current situation.

He went out of Beijing to improve his strength in order to promote the golden rod before, and now he is naturally a master of the fourth grade.

"I went to Yunzhou before, did something, and then came here. It's been about six or seven days?"

Chen Liu also immediately came to the conclusion that his sloppy image should have been raised by not moving much for six or seven days.

Idle is also idle, Chen Liu found some tools to clean this old little shop and make it look new.

"Go get me some drinks and come back."

Yuan Ping shouted on the side.

"You've become a wine Mengzi. Big brother, are you sure you're here for business?"

Chen Liu was speechless, and he really couldn't say anything about this situation.

After taking the last sip of wine, Yuan Ping replied:

"Come here to raise funds for the organization."

"Then you raise it."

"Then you earn it!"

It turned out that Yuan Ping came here to take charge of Chen Liu's task of making money. The so-called funds he raised were the 100,000 taels he earned after waiting for Chen Liu.

"Any off-site assistance?"

"Yes. Are you interested in kidnapping the princess?"

"Who are you? Why don't I know you?"

Chen Liu was not interested in this kind of crime of attempting rebellion, and he didn't want to be beheaded at the entrance of the vegetable market with a big man.

Subsequently, Chen Liu planned to ask for the one hundred taels of start-up capital given by Feng Shuai.

"It's gone. I've run out of them."

「……」

He resisted the urge to strangle Yuan Ping.

This time it's really going to be an empty glove white wolf.

"Is it permissible to borrow money?"

"You can only borrow a hundred taels, as long as you pay it back."

Chen Liu had to separate his money from the borrowed money, so Chen Liu and Yuan Ping went out of Jiangning City together and found the local black market.

This black market is naturally also the industry of the demon clan.

Compared with the black market in Chang'an, Kyoto, this black market in Jiangning is much more peaceful and wealthy.

It is said to be a black market, but it is actually similar to a normal fang market.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything, listening to the opera and tasting tea, is also interesting.

There are no fugitives or wicked people on the roadside, only ordinary people.

Chen Liu took Yuan Ping to a particularly luxurious three-story wooden building.

There is a signboard hanging outside the building, which does not write much, only two words "Qian Zhuang".

He didn't have any tokens, but he just gave his name to the shopkeeper, and he easily got a hundred taels.

"Remember to issue an IOU."

"As explained above, you can come here to withdraw money at will, and you don't need to borrow it

According to."

"This time it's different, so let's get one for me."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he issued an IOU to Chen Liu.

Chen Liu then asked the shopkeeper if he had signed for the purchase of Du Kang wine.

The shopkeeper went directly to the back, took an ink sign and handed it to Chen Liu.

Yuan Ping was stunned on the sidelines.

Naturally, he had been to a lot of black markets and knew about the existence of money banks, but he had never seen such a rush to send money.

He also knows that this black sign is at least worth a thousand gold.

"Are you a rich woman?"

"I've done someone a favor, and they've repaid me."

In fact, he just tried it, but he didn't expect Zhaoying Dazun to be so intimate.

Chen Liu then found a local tavern that sold Du Kang wine, bought two taels of Du Kang wine for two taels of gold, and handed it to Yuan Ping.

Yuan Ping took the wine jug, a little in a trance.

When the hairy boy who came to the capital at the beginning of the year, his ability suddenly became so unbelievable.

Take a sip of wine to calm yourself down.

It's just that it's the first time he's drunk, and he wants to get drunk.

So the alcohol instantly hit his brain, and he directly saw a bunch of stars lingering in his head. Chinese Net

"If you can't drink it, don't drink it."

Chen Liu had no choice but to place him in the money village first, and he wanted to explore some things in this black market.

In a small private house in Jiangning City, the crown prince Li Wanzheng and Jianghuai Governor Yu Shutang sat on a small stone bench and drank each other.

The wine was brought by Li Wan, and the meat on the table was also brought by him, Yu Shutang only asked his wife to fry a few dishes of vegetarian dishes and stew some rice.

The prince doesn't care, he can also eat coarse tea and light rice.

What's more, his focus is not to eat, but to talk about things.

"Fengju, what do you think?"

Although Yu Shutang is in his prime, he looks older than Li Wancang. It's just that in fact, the crown prince is actually three years older than this governor.

When they were studying at the former high priest Jiu Fuang, they were very friendly.

Li Wan is biased towards Legalism, and Yu Shutang is more like Confucianism. Although the two often disagreed politically, this did not affect their friendship.

A high-ranking prince and a governor of the common people are actually very good partners.

And this wind move is the name given to Yu Shutang by their mentor Fuang. Now only Li Wan is the only one who can call it that.

"It's no different than you know. What the prince does is almost impeccable, even if he picks a bone in an egg, he can only find some small problems."

Yu Shutang said as he put down his chopsticks again and again, eating the meat between them.

Of course, for most of the other half of the pork, he directly asked his wife to make another table to improve the food for the family.

As for the prince, anyway, there will be big fish and meat in the future, and there will be no shortage of pork.

Li Wan really didn't plan to grab meat with this classmate and friend.

"That's a real problem."

"You can't move. Unless he's guilty of treason, you can't deal with him at all. You can't put a trumped-up charge on him."

Yu Shutang has been in Jianghuai for many years, and he knows the mysteries of the court, so he naturally knows what the prince is worried about.

Although the two of them have different political views, in this matter, Yu Shutang also feels that King Huainan is too normal, so it is a little abnormal.

But the identity of this prince blocked most of Li Wan's operations.

First, as Li Wan's imperial uncle, King Huainan is difficult for him to touch. Confining and mutilating relatives has been a taboo since ancient times, especially in the family of emperors.

Although bloody killings are not uncommon during the transition of royal power, what is sought is a division to become famous. Naturally, this reason must not be unfounded, but must be based on real evidence.

Disposing of the royal family without reason not only violates the teachings of Taizu, but also shakes his position.

Two, he's just too

Child. Only the emperor is entitled to dispose of a prince in a non-warring situation. Even if Li Wan is the crown prince of the prison country, he is not an exception.

"Check it out for yourself. My record of all these years will be delivered to your house in the evening."

"This is an eviction?"

Li Wan laughed a little.

Yu Shutang replied as a matter of course:

"Or else? You're done with the dishes, and you still want to have dinner?"

Looking at the plate that had been cleaned, Li Wan pointed at Yu Shutang and didn't know what to say.

"You, you...... Can't you leave more money for your family?"

"What do you do with your money? They all know who I am when they follow me."

Hearing this, Li Wan didn't say more.

A local magistrate, the governor of Jianghuai, even if he doesn't use those off-the-shelf tricks and earns those gray incomes, it is impossible to live so hard with just a fortune.

The reason for the daily coarse tea and light meal is nothing more than that his old friend has spent most of his money elsewhere.

Li Wan took out a small bag of gold leaves and handed it to him.

"Don't refuse, clean money isn't for you."

"Who's going to refuse, I want to ask you if you have more."

Yu Shutang counted the gold leaves in the bag, and then waved his hand to let the prince say goodbye by himself.

"Uncle Wang is going to have a banquet in two days, and you bring your family with you. You can take the rest of the money in the bag as you like, but take two pieces out of it and give it to the family to improve their lives. If you don't agree, pay me back."

"Got it, got it, let's go."

The crown prince shook his head, and finally left with the sword master.

After he left, Yu Shutang also packed up the dishes and chopsticks, handed the bag containing the money to his subordinates, and sent it to the usual place.

"The prince is kind enough to help you, why don't you still appreciate it?"

Yu Shutang's wife came out of the kitchen, took the dishes he had cleaned up, and complained.

His wife's name is Ning Mengyao, she is not beautiful, she can only be regarded as an ordinary person, and she has lived a hard life with him, her face is even more old and haggard.

It's just that the two are childhood sweethearts.

The two have a son and a daughter, and the son, through his own efforts, passed the examination in the past few years, and is now exercising as a county official in a county town in the southwest.

My daughter is very young, only seven or eight years old, and she is studying at a school at this time.

"Mr. was strict back then, no matter his identity, how many times I took the board for him, this is his kindness."

"You."

Ning Mengyao was also angry for a while, but she didn't blame her husband after all.

"Let's stay at home for this month. The day after tomorrow, when I go to the palace of Huainan Wang, I have to prepare two beautiful clothes for my wife and my nannan."

As a governor of one side, if he is too shabby in front of such an important banquet, after all, it will hurt his body.

He himself wore the regular clothes provided by the imperial court, but his family still had to add two new clothes.

This is also worthy of the kindness of his classmate and friend, and he should occasionally let his family celebrate the New Year.

"Why did you suddenly change sex."

"Isn't this due to the Prince's funding?"
