Chapter 248: Consider the Big Picture
At first glance, it sounds like a good thing for Mangtaihu, but if you think about it, it's not entirely good.
The expanded scope is all expanded by Qin Xuan's leased land, and the expanded land doesn't seem to have much to do with Mang Taihu.
When the time comes, I will see Qin Xuan become bigger and stronger on his own territory, and if Qin Xuan is "anti-customer-oriented", the situation will be very bad.
Therefore, Mang Taihu would not casually agree to Qin Xuan to expand the Imperial Golden City for a while.
Mang Taihu politely rejected Qin Xuan's proposal, and Qin Xuan did not force it too much, and then did not mention the matter of expanding the city, but chatted with Mang Taihu about some less critical topics, until the final banquet was close to the end, Qin Xuan handed over a letter to Mang Taihu.
After sending Qin Xuan away enthusiastically, Mang Taihu opened the envelope as soon as possible.
The content on the letter paper really made Mang Taihu's eyelids jump slightly!
"This kid really dares to speak!" Dropping the attribute he was holding in his hand, the expression on Mang Taihu's face suddenly became serious.
The letter that Qin Xuan handed over to Mang Taihu belonged to a letter asking for marriage, and Qin Xuan hoped that Mang Taihu would marry the county lord to him and form a marriage.
Mang Taihu was just a little surprised, but he didn't have the urge to go away.
But her wife is not as calm as her, and she is directly angry: "This Qin Xuan is really a little crazy, how can the county lord of the empire marry a low-level pariah like him, it's just a daydream!"
Mang Taihu's wife's name is Yun Tianyan, and she is also an outstanding super powerhouse in the Mang Saint Empire, when Mang Tailong named Mang Taihu the king, he gave her a queen by the way, and her current identity is the people at the top of the pyramid in the entire Mang Saint Empire.
Although Mang Taihu has a rough and bold personality, when making friends, he only focuses on interests and does not look at his background.
But Yun Tianyan is an extremely arrogant person, she thinks that Qin Xuan was born from the grassroots and belongs to the "mediocre pariahs" who are mixed at the bottom of society, how can he be worthy of the county lord of the city lord's mansion as Qin Xuan's untouchable?
Of course, according to Yun Tianyan's point of view: no matter how strong Qin Xuan is, he can't take off his "untouchable" hat!
Yun Tianyan was extremely opposed to marrying the princess, and Mang Taihu told her about the expansion of the city.
This time, Yun Tianyan's opposition was even more violent: "It is absolutely impossible to expand the Emperor Golden City, Qin Xuan, this kid is a wolf with ambitions, he clearly wants to expand his own power and isolate the status of our City Lord's Mansion!"
"The expansion of the Emperor Golden City by 40 miles is equivalent to more than three times the expansion of the original scale, and so much territory has been expanded, and all the people who come in from outside will go to his territory to do business in the future, what does it have to do with us?"
Mang Taihu said: "But what Qin Xuan said is also true, the space of the Emperor Golden City is already very crowded, and now that the transportation channel is open, a large number of people have poured in, and the population size has increased by more than 50% compared to before!"
"The influx of a large number of people has made the already crowded dungeon even more overcrowded, and the problem of small space has seriously limited our development.
Yun Tianyan replied: "That's also very simple, let's take the Emperor Golden City as the core and expand it by 20 miles in all directions!"
"The 20 li that was expanded and the 40 li that Qin Xuan said?"
"Of course there is a difference!" Yun Tianyan said in a condensed voice, "According to the plan Qin Xuan said, all the expanded territory belongs to him, what does it have to do with us?"
"We expand according to our own plan, and we don't lease the land to Qin Xuan, so the expanded land is our own!"
Mang Taihu said with a wry smile: "It's very unkind to do this, others do business on our territory, and if they make money, they will share half of the money they make!"
Yun Tianyan replied as a matter of course: "I think this is very reasonable, it was he Qin Xuan who came to our territory to do business, and we didn't ask him to come over!"
"Now that the transportation channel has been opened, and Qin Xuan's use value has been used up, if he is unwilling to cooperate and withdraw now, we can take the opportunity to take back all the management authority of the transportation channel, so that all the money earned will belong to our City Lord's Mansion!"
"Alright!" Mang Taihu waved his hand again and again, "It's not too early, you better go back and rest quickly!"
Yun Tianyan immediately realized that Mang Taihu couldn't listen to what she said, but he didn't want to quarrel with her, so he asked her to leave quickly.
"Then what are your plans!" The more this happened, the more Yun Tianyan refused to leave, and she had to get to the bottom of the situation and understand the situation.
Mang Taihu said in a condensed voice: "Since the Imperial Golden City must be expanded, then we can simply sell him a face and expand the Imperial Golden City!"
"However, Qin Xuan's request, we can't meet all of them, the Emperor Golden City has begun to expand on all sides, and we will only give him the territory that has been expanded in one direction!"
"The territory expanded in the other three directions is still under our control, and we have saved face for him, but we will not let the power go to him and let it grow!
Yun Tianyan retorted again: "I don't think this will work, Qin Xuan has become big now, we should find a way to suppress him and control the growth of his forces!"
"That's enough!" Mang Taihu suddenly changed his face, "You just take care of the housework, and you don't have to take care of the affairs of the City Lord's Mansion!"
was reprimanded by Mang Taihu, Yun Tianyan still stubbornly continued: "You must give him the territory, just give him the territory that has been expanded in Dongcheng!"
The transportation passage is at the entrance of the Xicheng direction, and the people who enter the city from the transportation passage bear the brunt of entering the Xicheng District.
After the expansion of the Imperial Golden City, the most prosperous area must be on the side of the entrance of the passage, the area of the city has been greatly expanded, and there will be some places that will rise with the trend, and naturally some places will go into decline.
The direction with the highest probability of decay is in the Dongcheng area, which is the farthest away from the passage.
In order to protect the interests of the City Lord's Mansion, Yun Tianyan also took great pains, which can also be felt by Mang Taihu, which is also the key to his long-term emphasis on Yun Tianyan.
However, on this issue, Mang Taihu has a complete set of ideas of his own.
As a woman, Yun Tianyan's biggest concern is the entanglement of her own interests.
