What Li Jie wants, Jiang Ling naturally knows.

She didn't say anything, just waited for time to ferment.

So.

Two hours later, Li Jie and the others left the palace, and several people were speechless all the way, and Li Jie didn't have the heart to say anything.

It's just that when Li Jie returned to the house, a few fresh faces appeared outside the door.

"Master, these people say that they are Fujian businessmen, from Fujian, and they want to visit you, Master."

As soon as the housekeeper of the mansion saw Li Jie appear, he hurriedly stepped forward, and several family members also hurriedly surrounded him, for fear that these few faces would do something.

"Min merchants?"

Hearing these two words, Li Jie's expression changed, one of the eight major trading houses of the Great Wei Dynasty, this is not a small person.

He looked at it.

In an instant, several people hurriedly walked over, and the eldest said directly: "Zhou Yunnan, the grass people, brother Zhou Xiong, meet the adults." ”

Zhou Yunnan's posture is extremely low, but the Zhou Xiong he said, Li Jie knows, is the president of the Fujian Chamber of Commerce, and in the Fujian area, it can be described as a powerful existence.

Of course, compared to himself, it is nothing, but the amount of money that Fujian merchants have is very exaggerated.

"Speak in the hall."

Li Jie was a little curious, but he didn't refuse, but invited them into the hall to talk.

Soon.

Half an hour later, Li Jie finally knew what they were coming from.

The right to choose a site for rice to mulberry.

came to this, and when he learned this, Li Jie was extremely unhappy in his heart, but he still remained calm on the surface, just saying that the major affairs of the country should benefit the people first, and he refused with this euphemism.

Zhou Yunnan was also real, he didn't plead hard, but vaguely told Li Jie that this matter would be handled by Fujian businessmen, and part of the profits would be given to Li Jie.

As soon as he said this, Li Jie couldn't help but smile, and asked how much there was with his temperament.

The latter slowly stretched out two fingers, making Li Jie frown slightly.

"Two hundred thousand taels of silver?"

Li Jie really didn't expect that a site selection right would offer a price of 200,000 taels of silver, and one tael of silver in the Great Wei Dynasty could be exchanged for ten yuan, one dollar for one hundred wen, and one penny could buy a baked cake.

These 200,000 taels of silver are really a lot.

It's a pity that he is the secretary of the Great Wei Ministry of Industry, and he can't look down on 200,000 taels of silver at all, and it's not worth his risk.

However, the latter shook his head and smiled indifferently: "My lord, it's not two hundred thousand taels of silver, it's two million taels of silver." ”

The voice fell.

Even though Li Jie has seen countless big scenes, after hearing this price, the whole person was still stunned for a moment.

Two million taels of silver?

The Great Wei treasury can't take out so many taels of silver, as long as he cooperates with the other party, he can directly get two million taels of silver?

What is this concept?

The annual expenditure of the Ministry of Industry is only more than 700,000 taels, of course, the main reason is that the palace has not been built in the past two years, coupled with the emptiness of the treasury, and the household department does not allocate funds, which is the result of frugality.

But two million taels of silver is really a shocking number.

In fact, it's no wonder that Li Jie is like this, in the court, the Liu Party is the first, the Yang Party is the second, and a neutral party like him has no effect at all.

Where is there any oil and water to fish, it can only be said that it is barely enough, anyway, as long as you don't die of hunger, you will be satisfied with eating some soup left by the two of them.

Naturally, when you hear this number, you will be shocked.

This has to be changed because Liu Yanming heard this number, and he was afraid of sneering again and again.

"My lord, the grass people have studied carefully, and there are several places around Zhening Mansion, especially Hangyun Mansion, which is more suitable as a place to change rice to mulberry."

"It's definitely not grass people's nonsense, this is the Tian Ben map of Hangyun Mansion, adults can watch it carefully."

Zhou Yunnan hurriedly took out a thick map and handed it to Li Jie.

The latter took it, watched it carefully, and after reading it, Li Jie found that it was indeed very suitable.

Of course, if you have to say it, the terrain is not as good as Zhening Mansion, but the fields here are less than those in Zhening Mansion, and of course there is one thing Li Jie doesn't understand.

That is, there are many fields in Zhejiang-Ning Mansion that are family gate valves, and there are tens of thousands of acres at every turn, while Hangyun Mansion is all good land for the people.

Therefore, the profit is more and higher than that of Zhening Mansion.

"The matter of changing rice to mulberry is a major event of the country after all, this Tian Bentu, the old man accepted it, but whether to choose or not to choose, it is still necessary to consider it in the long run."

"Your Excellency hasn't slept all night, and you came overnight, so let's go back early and rest."

In the end, reason overcame desire, and two million taels of silver did give him a huge shock, but Li Jie still stabilized his mentality.

He didn't want to go against Liu Yanming, so he gave up.

Hearing this, Zhou Yunnan laughed twice, since he had issued an eviction order, he didn't say much, just told the other party where he lived, and then left the Li Mansion.

As soon as Zhou Yunnan left, Li Jie was about to rest for a while, when the housekeeper's voice sounded again.

"Master, there are a few more guests outside the door, they are the sons of the president of the Wu Chamber of Commerce."

"Thousands of miles away, do you want to see me?"

The housekeeper opened his mouth and looked at Li Jiedao.

"Nope."

Li Jie shook his head, he didn't want to see him, he knew what the other party was doing.

But when the words fell, the housekeeper couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Master, you should still see it, the other party sent three carts of gifts, among which there is a mutton fat bodhisattva, and the old lady likes it very much." ”

"If you don't see it, you have to return this gift."

The housekeeper spoke, making Li Jie silent for a moment, it was obvious that the other party had made a bloody investment.

Even when he glanced at this housekeeper who had been in the Li family for more than thirty years, he knew that he had received a lot of benefits, otherwise he would not have done so.

"Forget it, let's meet."

Li Jie sighed, it's really not good not to see it, anyway, the first one has been seen, and he is not afraid of the second one, and they all gave gifts, and they didn't suffer losses.

That's it.

A family of commercial houses arrived, and there were many doors outside the Li Mansion, and there were carriages in the back door.

This situation spread in an instant.

Not only that, Zhou Yunnan, who left, learned that several other trading houses had joined in, and immediately went straight to the mansions of other officials.

are all officials of Li Jie's faction.

If he can't impress Li Jie, he doesn't believe that his subordinates will instigate him not to move?

As the day dawns, Kyoto today has changed a little bit from the past, and many outsiders have come to Kyoto, and they have prepared some generous gifts.

Even some businessmen who were not prepared came directly to Kyoto to sweep the goods, jewelry, jade, antiques and paintings, gold and silver jewelry, were all robbed.

Most people don't know what's going on.

And in the Willow Mansion.

As soon as noon time came, Liu Yanming sat on the Taishi's chair, and some officials looked ugly.

"Lord Shoufu, what kind of discord is this, this is clearly Li Jie's slander and wants to compete for our interests."

Some officials couldn't bear it, and they thought that the right to choose the site was handed over to Li Jie, which was the empress's discord.

But at noon, Li Jie hadn't appeared yet, and they directly thought that Li Jie wanted to pick peaches.

"Elder Ge, there are some subordinates who don't know whether to say it or not, but now four of the eight major chambers of commerce have sent people to Beijing, and they will go straight to the Li Mansion as soon as possible."

"These four major chambers of commerce, Li Jie did not shy away from suspicion at all, received them one by one, and said that he would meet you at noon, but now that noon has passed, no one else has appeared."

"What kind of discord is this, I think Li Jie wants to challenge you."

Another officer stood up and spoke.

Some couldn't hold their breath.

But on the Taishi chair, Liu Yan was obviously extremely silent, he was not angry, but pondered about this matter.

"If it weren't for the divisive scheme."

"Li Jie will never dare to take the initiative to provoke."

"Unless ......"

Liu Yanming was planning this matter in his heart, and in the end he thought of a possibility.

One should be an impossible possibility.

King Yan or King Ning....... Shot.
