Thereupon.

Gonggong Li took the two princes, as well as the mainstay of the Ten Princes' Mansion, and rushed towards the imperial study.

Zhao Yong squinted at Zhu Li with two dark circles under his eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "Old Shi, you are really discerning, Miss Li, the pearl of the Zhu family's pearl in the sea, can be unearthed by you, I really admire the imperial brother." ”

Honestly, he was tired.

After the auction ended yesterday, he immediately found Zhuge Xiao and discussed with him about entering the house.

In the evening, he discussed with the Zhu family for an all-nighter, and when he left the Zhu family, he immediately took Zhuge Xiao to the Zongren Mansion, and then he was summoned into the palace by the emperor not long after he went back.

His eyes were black now, and he just wanted to pass out.

But this didn't affect his good mood at all, especially when he saw Zhu Li's name appear on Zhao Ci's mansion monument, he almost didn't laugh.

Originally, Zhao Ci was already saddled with a huge amount of debt, but he turned around and recruited such a general.

Really......

Speechless!

"How do I feel that he is not saying a good thing?"

Zhu Li was a little dissatisfied, poked Zhao Ci's waist, and asked in a low voice.

Zhao Ci's face turned pale: "Since you heard it, why did you ask me privately?" You are the mainstay of my Ten Kings' Mansion, why don't you have any confidence at all? ”

As soon as Zhu Li heard the reason, his voice suddenly raised a degree: "Your Highness the Nine!" Are you yin and yang weird? ”

Zhao Yong: "......"

In this song, there are really not many peers who dare to speak to him like this, but the two hobs in front of him really don't pay attention to these.

glanced at Gonggong Li, who was still quietly leading the way in front, as if he didn't hear the sound behind at all.

He rubbed his dazed eyes and decided not to bother with the two men.

Soon.

A few people arrived at the imperial study.

Today's imperial study is much more lively, in addition to Zhao Huan above the high position, there are three or four officials, who are sitting respectfully below.

These people are all known by Zhao Ci, and they are the people who speak to Feng Zhu Yang and the three Danfang on the bright side, namely Zhu Li's hall brother congratulations, Feng Kucha's second cousin Feng Budo, and Yang Jian, the eldest son of the Yang family's second master.

Behind them, there are also the shopkeepers of various Danfang.

Combined, there were about seven or eight people.

It can be said that these seven or eight people dominate the trend of the entire Dayu pill market, and can even influence the military strength of Dayu, after all, the pill is widely used, and it is directly related to the number of middle and low-level combat power.

"Ci'er Yong'er is here!"

The look of kindness flashed on Zhao Huan's face, and then he said, "You guys sit down too!" ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The two sat in the last two empty seats.

Zhu Li felt that he could also sit, and after being glared at by Zhao Ci, he reluctantly stood behind him.

"It's going to be another year of the Gongdan Conference, and it's really a new atmosphere every year!"

Zhao Huan was a little emotional, stroking his gray beard, and his slightly cloudy eyes seemed to contain vicissitudes.

His eyes fell on Zhao Ci, and he said with a smile: "Before the Gongdan Conference last year, the shopkeepers of the large and small Danfang were summoned over, and this small imperial study room was almost unable to fit, and Wuyang Wuyang was like a vegetable market. This year, Ci'er has integrated a large number of small Danfang, and it is much more neat and clean. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

Your Majesty, we all know that you spoil this son, but this is too good at giving people gold, right?

These small Danfangs are obviously integrated by Concubine Jing, how did they become Zhao Ci's political achievements?

"Speaking of which, the pill world also needs some new talents, and we can't put all the burden on the three families of Zhu Feng and Yang."

Zhao Huan's eyes moved to Zhao Yong: "Yong'er, you dare to be the first in the world, and you are willing to start from scratch to share the heavy responsibility, which is good!" ”

"It's all a child's job!"

Zhao Yong was flattered and hurriedly got up.

Zhu Li pressed the corners of his mouth frantically, feeling that the emperor had designated tiles for the moat when he was young, which was too good to paste, after pasting this son and that son, why did Zhao Yong start from scratch?

But she never thought that soon Zhao Huan's eyes fell on her.

I saw Zhao Huan with a face full of relief and said: "The Zhu family is worthy of being a big Yu humerus, not only is he in charge of the pill industry, but he has also cultivated young talents to enter the government as officials." ”

Congratulations: "......"

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he still didn't laugh out loud after all, and stood up, just about to say something polite.

But Zhu Li took the lead, and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty! My father has always warned Weichen to be loyal to the country, and Weichen will live up to His Majesty's high expectations, and will definitely help His Royal Highness Ten to open Danfang and benefit the entire Dayu people! ”

It's really going to fight for my father.

Zhao Ci: "......"

Zhao Huan: "......"

Everyone present: "......"

Zhu Li's sudden official tone caught them off guard, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Several family members were stunned, this girl doesn't have any points in her heart, you don't know what alchemy looks like?

Recently, Zhao Ci's big moves, they all saw it, and they were opening the mansion and grabbing the Dan Furnace, and they had the momentum to sit firmly in the pill world.

Unexpectedly, he turned his head and invited Zhu Li back to be a government official.

Well......

The future is promising.

Zhao Yong was also a little nervous, he couldn't figure out what reason Zhao Ci used to fool Zhu Li, but he didn't expect it to be alchemy.

This is outrageous!

He seems to understand a little, why he has shown favor many times, but he can't get Kan Luotang into his carriage, Zhao Ci is not bullshit, but he can do it.

This is also too good to lick, taking the royal privilege of opening the house, and using the power and wealth of his mother to capture his girlfriends.

I really can't do this kind of face.

"Good, good!"

Zhao Huan smiled and praised, broke the embarrassment, and immediately straightened his expression and gave Gonggong Li a look.

Gong Li understood, so he walked down with a tray and distributed the booklet on it one by one.

Zhao Ci opened it and found that it was an order list issued by the imperial court, with the approximate budget written on it, as well as the Dan class he planned to purchase.

There are many high-grade pills above the physical realm, and each one is very valuable.

But nearly seventy percent of the budget still falls on the Qi Cultivation Pill, after all, the warriors below the physical realm are the big ones that the country wants to raise.

The value on the booklet is not particularly specific, it is about 40,000 Qi Cultivation Pills, about 3 million taels.

It is calculated according to three Qi Cultivation Pills for one person.

This expenditure is enough to send more than 10,000 soldiers who are not highly talented, but work hard enough, to the physical realm.

More than 10,000 cutting-edge soldiers a year, this investment is not high, you must know that even after 18 years of gold, Dayu's tax revenue is only 18 million taels.

Zhao Ci once estimated that the purchasing power of one tael of silver in Dayu was equivalent to about two or three thousand yuan. A low-grade Qi Cultivation Pill costs about sixty taels, and the consumption of three is almost enough for a suite in a small county town in the previous life.

Except for those who are particularly gifted and don't need to practice Qi Pills, and those who don't follow the path of cultivation by lying down completely, most of the other civilians can't afford it.

If you don't bother to buy it yourself, you will either be a retainer for the big family, or you will go crazy to be a soldier, speaking of these retainers, they will also be sent to the battlefield during the war, which is equivalent to the big clan helping the country share the pressure, but in the past eighteen years, the border has been stable a lot, and these redundant retainers are not good for stability after all.

It still has to be the country.

Therefore, the imperial court's investment in Qi Cultivation Pill has been on the rise in recent years.

Zhao Huan didn't immediately say the contents of the booklet, but said with a slight gaze: "A few days ago, there were repeated enemies at the border. Eighteen years have passed, and they must have forgotten how painful it was to be beaten back then.

I have developed steadily for 18 years, and the national strength is not comparable to that of the year, but the domestic environment is a little comfortable, and the soldiers used to be able to break through the bottleneck of the life and death war, and now many can only rely on pills.

After careful calculation, the strength on paper is not much stronger than back then.

Even in today's army, a Qi Cultivation Pill can make the soldiers grab their heads.

I'm ashamed! ”

When he said these words, the wrinkles on his face seemed to deepen, and the look of guilt seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, without any intention of faking.

Congratulations on hearing this, he took the lead in stepping forward and said: "Your Majesty must not blame yourself, this fact is the fault of those of us who are courtiers, in vain for more than ten years, and still did not reduce the cost of Qi Cultivation Pill. ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Feng Budo, Yang Jian, and the people behind them also bowed down in unison: "The ministers are ashamed!" ”

One by one, their heads are buried deeply, and they seem to have felt guilty to the extreme.

Zhao Ci looked straight at it.

He understood the play, and the simplified version was:

Zhao Huan: I'm so poor, you can lower the price.

Everyone: I'm also poor, I really can't go down.

Yin blows wet Ting.
