Chapter 58

Who gave Zhuang Yisheng five million taels?

Who insisted on mining here?

Who is the trader behind Zhuang Yisheng?

The answers all point to the same person - Her Majesty the Empress.

"Her Majesty the Empress has discovered this mine?" the King of Joy chuckled in his heart.

Wen Xiang nodded: "Of course." ”

Zhuang Yichang breathed a sigh of relief: "It's all Your Majesty's arrangement." ”

"How did Your Majesty know that there would be a Star Mine three hundred feet below the surface?" asked the King of Care.

Wen Xiang shook his head: "Then I don't know, but Your Majesty is unfathomable, and it's not strange to know this." ”

If things point to Zhuang Yisheng, everyone will definitely find it strange. But since it originated from the empress, then the matter is easy to understand.

Because the word Your Majesty is equivalent to being incomprehensible.

The King of Joy is by no means at peace.

The discovery of the star stone under 300 feet below the surface of the earth is currently impossible for all countries to do. Once Nanyan mastered this technique, they would be able to discover more ores and create weapons with greater lethality.

Originally, his judgment of Nanyan was that it was a weak country inferior to Donglu in all aspects. It used to be wide, but now it's not at all.

But I walked around and took a look, but the result was unexpected.

Nanyan can replicate the contents of the Phantom Stone on a large scale, but Donglu cannot.

The inscription technology that Donglu has recently researched, they have had it three years ago.

They can explore the Xingyao Mine 300 feet below the surface, but Donglu can't.

This is still a weak country, this is completely Taoguang and obscure, ready to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.

It is necessary to rejudge the national strength of Nanyan.

King Xiaoyao was so worried that he even hid a knife in his smile with Wen, but he seemed powerless.

He hurriedly took his leave and returned to the inn.

Gao Su came over with a spring breeze on his face and said, "Lord Qiqi ......"

King Xiaoyao's eyes lit up: "Cracked?"

"Not yet. ”

Belch......

King Xiaoyao is silent, then why is your face excited.

"Lord Qiqi, my subordinates have found out that this phantom stone comes from the Wutong faction in western Beijing. ”

"Sycamore Pie?" King Xiaoyao frowned, he had just returned from there.

"Yes, the information is confirmed, and the subordinates also found out that the current head of the Wutong faction is the younger brother of the Empress Nanyan, and the two of them used to be from the same school. ”

"Lord Wang, I have arranged for a master to visit the Wutong Sect tonight and get the information about the Phantom Stone. Gao Su was faintly excited: "Now just wait for the prince's order?"

"Night Exploration Sycamore Faction?"

The King of Joy glanced at him, and any secret book of the Wutong Sect was a priceless treasure if it was thrown on the street. I don't know how many masters there are, but I just haven't seen it. If you go, you probably don't know how you'll die.

If the matter is revealed, it will be an extremely bad diplomatic incident.

King Xiaoyao said: "This matter should only be outwitted, not risky, you continue to try to crack it, unless you have to, you can't make this decision." ”

"Adventure?" Gao Su shook his head: "According to the information found by his subordinates, there are only a few people in the Wutong faction, and we can just send someone to deal with it, far from taking risks." ”

The King waved his hand, you still know too shallowly.

The Sycamore pie is enough to be described as unfathomable.

After Gao Su left, King Xiaoyao sat on top of the middle hall and fell into a long exam.

At present, some information has been obtained, but it is still too early to judge, and it is still necessary to be cautious and tentative.

It has been some time since the Donglu mission arrived in the capital, and the two sides have already negotiated several business deals and expressed some cooperation intentions, including tariffs and goods exchanges between the two countries......

Some details are things that need to be sharpened, don't look at Wenxiang and Xiaoyao Wang usually watch plays, drink tea, and have a good relationship. But in fact, officials from both countries are already arguing at the negotiating table.

The king ordered the official in charge of negotiation to draft a contract and hand it over to test Nanyan's attitude.

Of course, there is a lot of foreshadowing in the contract, if Nanyan doesn't see it and signs the seal, Nanyan will fall into Donglu's calculations.

............

Wen Xiang hurriedly entered the palace and met the empress in the imperial study.

The empress yawned, she was still taking a nap just now: "What's the matter, there is something to bother me again?"

"Your Majesty, after preliminary negotiations, the Donglu side has handed over a preliminary contract, please preview it. ”

As he spoke, Wen Xiang picked up a box, snapped it, and put it on the table. Hundreds of contracts, all about the details of cooperation.

The empress was taken aback, so much.

She instantly felt a little headache, when will I finish watching this.

"What do you guys think?"

"Your Majesty, the officials of the various ministries have reviewed the entries they are responsible for, and some problems have been found and marked on them. However, these contracts involve minerals, weapons, food and many other aspects, and it is necessary to have a person who understands all walks of life and has an overview of the overall situation. ”

"Donglu is the hometown of poetry and books, and it is stronger than Nanyan in arithmetic, Nanyan is still martial, and there are not many readers. There must be a pitfall in this contract, and you need to be cautious. ”

"Donglu is in a hurry, and he wants our reply in three days. If you are not cautious and fall into their trap, you will not be able to go back on signing it. ”

The empress frowned tightly and said, "Who in Nanyan is good at these things?"

"Your Majesty, it's better to let King Shou come forward. ”

"Shouwang?"

"Yes, King Shou is very experienced in the way of businessmen, and he also has a lot of industries under his door. Before, he was in charge of all these things. ”

The empress snorted coldly, the old man had a bad stomach, and now he was still grounded at home. He himself made the decree, and now he is invited to come out, and his tail will not be raised to heaven.

"You don't have to look for him, let him stay at home. The empress said, "I will solve this matter." ”

"Your Majesty has a candidate in mind?" Wen Xiang said.

"Hmm. ”

The empress subconsciously wanted to nod, but suddenly changed her mind and said, "Candidate, don't you think I don't understand this?"

"This ......"

Wen Xiang was taken aback, His Majesty actually wanted to start it in person. He hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty is martial arts, and the minister naturally does not dare to question Your Majesty. However, this involves many industries, and you need to have a certain understanding of all walks of life, and if you are not careful, you will be taken advantage of by Donglu. ”

"Okay, I know, let me read it first. ”

"Your Majesty, there are only three days. ”

"Got it, got it. The empress waved her hand impatiently.

Wen Xiang left the palace, and his heart was still up and down. He thought about it for a while and told the palanquin man to go to King Shou's mansion.

In this matter, I am afraid that I really want to invite King Shou out of the mountain, His Majesty will not be able to wipe off his face, so he can only give up this face, go to King Shou's mansion for a trip, and try King Shou's tone first.

In the imperial study, after Wen Xiang left, the empress looked left and right, and first stuffed a piece of glutinous rice cake into her mouth.

Then he opened the treasure bag on his waist and stuffed the contracts in the box one by one.

Until they were all inside, the treasure bag was still a thin layer, as if it didn't contain anything.
