Chapter 39: Prime Minister

After Liang Xiao left, Jiang Fuxue looked at her grandmother with a puzzled expression: "Didn't I say that they can't enter the Liang Mansion without permission?" ”

Grandma shook her head, indicating that she was innocent.

"Go and hear it!" Jiang Fuxue's face was full of worry, and she quietly followed to the lobby.

In the lobby, Gongsun Ling sat on the VIP seat, looking at Liang Xiao and couldn't help but praise.

"Boss Liang has a bearing, which is completely different from the rumors in the outside world."

Liang Xiao asked, "Mr. Gongsun might as well get straight to the point, do you want to cooperate with me and resell sugar?" ”

Gongsun Ling nodded and explained: "Our Gongsun family is from Bashu, and Boss Liang must have heard of it. Bashu also needs sugar. However, Bashu is too far from here, and the freight is also a problem. Therefore, we can't buy it from you for a long time at a price of 500 yuan. My suggestion is that the two of us will trade privately, and the Gongsun family will buy sugar in bulk at a price higher than a few pennies in the market, starting with 100,000 catties. ”

Liang Xiao shook his head and said, "I'm really sorry, I can't agree." ”

"Boss Liang doesn't want to make money?" Gongsun Ling was a little puzzled.

This is a foolproof strategy that they finally came up with, which can not only please the fourth young lady, but also not affect the normal business activities of the Gongsun family, and it is profitable.

"This white sugar will definitely become a military material in the future, and it cannot be sold in large quantities, unless I am authorized by the imperial court, which will take a little time."

Gongsun Ling reminded: "Boss Liang, white sugar is different from table salt, how can it become a military material?" Even if it's table salt, there is a vinegar cloth as a substitute! ”

Liang Xiao said categorically: "White sugar will definitely become military supplies, I hope Mr. Gongsun can understand my hardships, after I am a criminal minister, my father offended too many courtiers back then, and those people are only afraid that they will give me a charge of killing my head." ”

Gongsun Ling said helplessly: "Then in the future, Boss Liang will sell white sugar in the market, hoping to continue to take care of our Gongsun family." In return, the Gongsun family can give you a little help in the purchase of sugarcane. ”

Liang Xiao readily agreed.

The two negotiated for two quarters of an hour, and Gongsun Ling finally took his leave.

Jiang Fuxue walked out of the side hall with her grandmother and asked, "Brother, this seems to be a once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity, with the assistance of Gonggong Lin, the sugar will definitely be sold to Bashu in large quantities." Why did my brother ......"

Liang Xiao explained: "Xue'er doesn't know that Bashu has been ruled by the Gongsun family for a hundred years, and it only accepted the recruitment of the Great Zhou Gaozu back then, and it was still nominally a force on one side. This white sugar will become an excellent military material in the future, and it must not flow into the hands of forces with unknown positions in large quantities. Gonggong Lin is kind to me, how can I live up to him and Your Majesty. ”

"Is my brother worried that he will be an enemy of Bashu in the future?" Jiang Fuxue asked.

Liang Xiao said: "It depends on whether the Gongsun family of Bashu knows the current affairs, if they rebel against the court in the future, they may be able to avoid a war." My father and mother gave birth to me, my master raised me, they are loyal to the Great Zhou, and I must consider everything from the standpoint of the Great Zhou. ”

"Oh." Jiang Fuxue Mu replied, thoughtfully.

"What do you say? Liang Xiao refused to agree?? ”

Gongsun Wuji, who received the news, frowned.

"Young Master, this son can sacrifice his life to save the fourth young lady, and he is so loyal, maybe he has the style of a father." Gongsun Ling reminded.

Gongsun Wuji admonished in a deep voice: "Stubborn! I'm not rebellious to Da Zhou, it's interesting enough! Today's Da Zhou has long been a building that is about to fall, and it is not a tree that can be supported. One more Liang Xiao is just one more soul sent to death. In short, you stabilize Liang Xiao and pay attention to protecting my little sister, otherwise you will come to see you! ”

Between the words, Gongsun Wuji glanced at the invitation on the table, picked it up casually, got up and said: "You do things as usual, what my little sister asks, as long as you don't go too far, just promise her!" I'm going to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow morning, and I'll meet the heroes of the capital! ”

At night, Prime Minister Zhuge Hui, whose beard was white, was ordered to face the saint.

In the imperial study, Zhuge Hui looked at Liang Xiao's words and was full of praise.

"Your Majesty, this so-called thin gold body is indeed in a class of its own, and it is enough to pass it on! These poems were selected as the top 50 poems of my Great Zhou, which is not a problem! ”

The empress asked, "What kind of person does the prime minister think will be able to write these poems?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to judge people by their appearance, but this person must be full of poetry and books." Zhuge Hui replied.

Duan Yunsleeve on the side listened to Zhuge Hui's praise, and his eyebrows were already dancing, and he said, "It's the son of the late Marquis of Lanling, Liang Xiao!" ”

"It's actually Liang Xiao?" Zhuge Hui was stunned.

"Prime Minister will evaluate the future students of the capital tomorrow morning, don't you mind having one more Liang Xiao, right?" Duan Yunsleeve asked.

Zhuge Hui said without thinking: "The ministers should do their best to recruit talents from all over the world for Your Majesty!" ”

Only then did Duan Yunsleeve say: "My imperial sister has the heart to ask you to take him as a protΓ©gΓ© and match him with Mu Qinxue." ”

Zhuge Hui was puzzled: "Your Highness, it is really inconvenient for the minister to interfere in the affairs of the afterlife......"

Duan Yunsleeve snorted: "You act cheaply, this palace is convinced, when you see Liang Xiao, you will definitely want to take him under the door!" ”

Zhuge Hui thought thoughtfully: "Hearing His Highness say this, the minister is a little curious. ”

But Duan Yunsleeve still saw disapproval from his demeanor.

But this old prime minister is one of the important ministers appointed by the former emperor, loyal and thoughtful, Duan Yunchong of course understands, and can only pray silently in his heart: "Don't let the prime minister down......"

The prime minister personally appraised the posterity, which is a great event.

There are 3,000 talented people and 300 talented women in the literary circle in Beijing, and hundreds of them have obtained the qualifications to visit.

Duanmu Yuncheng, Duanmu Yunqing, Nangong Ning......

There are also heroes from all over the world, who have also consulted the imperial court, hoping to take this opportunity to emerge.

Liang Xiao finished washing up early in the morning and waited at home.

Until Duan Yunsleeve came to visit with Feiyun, Liang Xiao opened the door and was stunned.

Gonggong Lin in front of him has two more mustaches on his lips and a small pinch of chin.

Duan Yunsleeve pouted and said: "As a eunuch, you don't grow a beard, and I'm worried about being recognized by an official, so it's reasonable to just add a beard, right?" ”

Liang Xiao nodded silently and looked at Duan Yunsleeve, with a little more sadness in his eyes.

Duan Yunsleeve's heart sank, and his heart was inexplicably angry and inexplicably warm.

She could see that Liang Xiao must have thought that she, "Gonggong Lin", needed to rely on a fake beard to regain her self-esteem.

This is clearly a distressed and sympathetic look!

Feiyun stood aside, seeing that his Royal Highness was becoming more and more devoted to playing the eunuch, he had no love.

Just as the two were talking, Jiang Fuxue came over with a few books in her arms.

After the onion baptism, Jiang Fuxue was full of tears.

"Father-in-law Lin, Xue'er also wants to accompany her brother to meet the world, please ......"
