Chapter 111 Hou Yong sells mines

The next day, a joke came from the capital.

"Have you heard that? Qin Hanzi plans to buy the mines filled with water in the West Mountain!"

"Why haven't you heard of it? I bought it at one time. It is said that it cost 70,000 to 80,000 taels!"

"What a prodigal son. The Duke of Qin made great achievements in military affairs and had a lifetime of wisdom. How could he give birth to such a fool!"

Everyone was talking about it on the streets and alleys.

They were all laughing at Qin Mo for being an airshot.

Li Xin was envious.

Why is this stupid boy so rich?

It cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan to buy an abandoned mine. He was the prince of the East Palace and could not even get a 10,000 taels of silver.

However, when thinking of the East Palace Foundation, Li Xin hesitated. These days, the East Palace Foundation has absorbed more than 200,000 taels of silver.

He has never been so rich.

Money, grain and cloth are piled up into mountains.

All the victims were divided up.

Now there are no victims on the streets of the capital.

The Duke of Qin's Mansion managed six or seven thousand people.

In addition, Li Yue had 30,000 to 40,000 people in his hands, and there were only more than 10,000 people on his side.

Donations have been increasing these days, so can he apply them a little?

Anyway, the money entered the Eastern Palace, so that was his.

Thinking of this, Li Xin was thrilled and had money to do a lot of things.

But there is another thing that makes Li Xin very uncomfortable.

That's Li Zhi.

He begged his father to join Lao Ba's camp.

"Hmph, I thought I could compete with Gu in this way?"

Li Xin sneered and called Gongsun Chong and Hou Yong, "Let's go, let's go back to the palace to report your life, I will ask for me for you!"

Gongsun Chong and the others looked at each other, full of surprise, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"But Your Highness, I think that asking for merit from Your Majesty is not the best choice now. In the small court meeting tomorrow, Your Highness will hand over the letter of requesting merit. Not only will Your Majesty praise Your Highness, but even all officials can see Your Highness's way of governing!" Gongsun Chong bowed.

"What you said makes sense!"

Li Xin nodded with a smile, then do what you said!

"By the way, Your Highness, the Qin family is here to our house today!"

Hou Yong sneered: "They want to sell our coal mountain!"

"I heard that the price given by the Qin family is quite high!"

"Our family has a hundred acres of coal mountains and dozens of mine caves. I didn't sell them. I always feel that Qin Hanzi was not holding back!" Hou Yong hated Qin Mo to the core, and he was willing to sell them there!

"Is Qin Hanzi going crazy? What's the use of an abandoned mine? And Coal Mountain, what else can those coals besides smelting iron?"

"Is it used to keep warm?" Li Xin frowned.

"Your Highness doesn't know that coal is extremely smelly when it comes to heating. Even beggars can't use it. Moreover, coal is extremely difficult to ignite, and there is also the risk of charcoal poisoning.

Besides, iron tools are specialized in the imperial court, who dares to smelves iron openly?" Gongsun Chong said.

In fact, each family is secretly smelting iron, but it is not said it clearly.

If coal mining and iron are mined on a large scale, it is a violation of national laws.

"Then why does Qin Hanzi want even an abandoned mine?"

The three of them looked at each other, not understanding.

"Qin Hanzi's brain is lacking in the root string, and he can do anything." Hou Yong sarcastically.

"Why go and ask, doesn't Qin Hanzi want a coal mine? Selling it to him at a high price and making a lot of money is worse than holding a waste mine in his hand." Gongsun Chong smiled sinisterly.

Hou Yong also felt it made sense, "Brother Gongsun's words are reasonable, and today we must kill Hanzi with ruthlessness!"

"I won't show up."

Li Xin smiled, "Don't be too cruel, after all, he is a lonely and good sister-in-law!"

The two of them sneered tacitly, and the prince’s implication was to kill him!

......

In the Duke of Qin's mansion, Qin Mo was blowing ink traces.

I don’t know why, but the more I talked with Chai Jinglan, the more I became more and more accustomed to it.

It feels quite interesting to have a "online dating" in a big way. Although Qin Mo has never been in love, he has never eaten pork. Haven't he seen a pig run yet?

However, his cheap father probably won't agree to marry a little widow, right?

Thinking of this, Qin Mo was so annoyed.

"Xiao Liuzi, come in and send this letter!"

Xiao Liuzi ran into the study and said helplessly: "Young master, it's so cold today. Can you write a few more letters at a time? I can't stand it if you run around!"

Qin Mo slapped Xiao Liuzi on the back of the head, "Beep again, send it quickly!"

"oh!"

Xiao Liuzi responded aggrievedly, took the envelope, and thought to himself: "What can't be seen and talked about? I have to send a letter. Are you tired?"

After Xiao Liuzi left, Yang Liugen and the butler hurried in, "Young master, the coal mountains and abandoned mines in Xishan have been almost all purchased, and they have spent more than 90,000 taels of silver in total!"

"It's not bad, lower than I expected."

Qin Mo sat on the rocking chair, "Are there anything missing?"

"Now, the mines and mine caves have not been sold yet."

"Whose family belongs?" Qin Mo frowned.

"It's from Duke Lu, but the Prince of Duke Lu said that it's not impossible for us to buy it. He called him to see you!"

"The monkey boy wants to see me?"

Qin Mo's eyes rolled and he curled his lips, "I don't see you, I know that he hasn't held back at first sight. You said that I don't have time to see him. If you want to sell, you can offer a price. If you don't sell, you can throw it away. It's nothing to lose to their family!"

Yang Liugen nodded and came to the main hall.

"Crown Prince Hou, our young master has important things now, so we can't meet!"

Yang Liugen bowed his hand and showed apologies, "If Prince Hou sincerely wants to sell it, it's better to quote a price!"

When Hou Yong heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied, "If I hadn't been sincere in selling, I would have run far away to the Duke of Qin's mansion? Qin Hanzi is too unfair to take this master seriously, right?"

Gongsun Chong also said, "I think you don't want to buy it, right?"

"The Prince Gongsun misunderstood. It's not that we don't want to buy it, but that the young master can't get out of time!" Yang Liugen said with a grudge.

"Since that's the case, then forget it, I won't sell it!"

Hou Yong stood up and made a gesture to leave. Gongsun Chong looked at Yang Liugen, "This time, it will be useless for you to ask for it next time!"

Yang Liugen thought to himself, the young master was indeed not wrong, there was no such thing as rushing to do. These two people came to the door with their own initiative, so they must not be kind!

He smiled and said, "Our young master said that it is the most important thing to do business. If the prince is unwilling to offer a quote, then this matter will be abandoned.

But Prince Hou has to think about it. Your mine is right in the middle, and it is surrounded by our Qin family's territory. It will be surrounded by the Xishan Mountain in two days. If you want to enter, you may have to borrow the passage!"

Hou Yong gritted his teeth in anger, "He dares!"

Yang Liugen just smiled and didn't say anything.

Gongsun Chong frowned and lowered his voice to Hou Yong, saying, "Qin Hanzi is impulsive in doing things, and he doesn't even give the prince's face. Do you think he dares?"
