The cost of ten million taels of silver was naturally unacceptable to the Crown Prince of Qin. He worked hard and made money by doing business everywhere, but he only made a meager profit of one million taels of silver a year.

Asking him to give out 10 million taels of silver would be more uncomfortable than killing him.

But what he didn't expect was that at this moment, his father would show up.

"Son, meet your father."

Not far away, an old man wearing a black python robe appeared. He had white hair and a cane. He came here tremblingly, but he didn't care about his son's kneeling.

Instead, he looked at Mr. Liu Ge.

"I have met His Highness King Qin."

Facing the King of Qin, Liu Yan was obviously extremely respectful. After all, the regent in front of him was the regent of the Wei Dynasty. He seemed to be hiding behind the scenes, but this kind of person was terrifying.

The reason why I can become the chief minister of the Wei Dynasty is precisely because of the King of Qin in front of me. Without him, I would not be able to become the chief minister of the Wei Dynasty.

"Liu Ge's old words are serious."

"How much food do you think we need?"

He continued to ask, his tone seemed particularly kind, even with a smile, a somewhat amiable look.

"Returning to the prince, I believe that the King of Yan can collect up to thirty million shi of food. Unless King Ning supports him, not including King Ning, 30 million shi is the limit, so we only need to give 35 million shi.

Just quote the grain."

Liu Yanming spoke slowly, he had budgeted for this, and 30 million shi of food was almost the limit.

The price you set for this grain is not about how much money you can make, but about gaining public support.

The four words "tell the world" have great meaning.

"Prince Ning will not support him."

"But it's absolutely impossible for him to just give out 30 million shi of food."

"Tomorrow, at the morning meeting, you will give the price of fifty million shi of grain. Since it is a comparison, crush the opponent to death in one go and don't give them any chance to breathe again."

"And I conclude that Your Majesty actually prefers Zhening Prefecture."

When the King of Qin opened his mouth, he was worthy of being the most powerful person in the Wei Dynasty. When he opened his mouth, he asked for 50 million shi of grain. This figure even shocked Liu Yanming.

"Father, 50 million stones of grain will be given to the imperial court for free. I..."

The Prince of Qin couldn't help but speak this time. He could no longer accept thirty million dan, and fifty million dan was even more impossible. If Qin's palace really spent so much money to buy food, then Qin's palace would also collapse.

Money can make all the difference. Although the Qin Palace is in full swing, there is definitely a lot of money that needs to be spent behind the scenes. The generals need a lot of money to support them. There are so many officials in the Wei Dynasty who need to spend money to support them. Where is there no shortage?

"Your vision is too limited."

Looking at his son, King Qin sighed. He walked slowly in front of the two of them. Under the black python robe, he looked extremely old, as if he was like a candle in the wind, and he would fall down at any time.

"The fertile land collected by Zhening Prefecture has exceeded two million acres, and the people involved range from the royal family to the gentry. If Your Majesty hands over the right to select the site to your third uncle, think about it for yourself, then there will be

What a hassle."

The King of Qin spoke out.

Just these words silenced the latter.

Two million acres of land, this is harvested fertile land, and there are some fields that we already own. If the right to select the site falls to other provinces, everyone will suffer a loss.

Suppressing land prices happened later. The previous ones were all about buying at high prices. After all, mulberry fields are profitable, and the money earned is nothing more than the government's appropriation.

If the site selection rights are not obtained, then this group of powerful people will be cheated. At that time, either the King of Qin will pay for everyone's losses, or everyone will be resentful of the King of Qin.

Then he turned around and went to King Yan, and became the biggest loser over and over again.

How could Prince Qin not understand these truths? But what if he did? After all, he was still a little dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, fifty million stones is a bit too much, isn't it?"

Liu Yanming couldn't help but speak, feeling that the offer was too high.

"Not much."

"You think of some ways to collect 10 million dan, and then ask the people who come into contact with you to collect 10 million dan. I will repair a few letters, and prepare 25 million dan from the seven surrounding provinces. I will privately donate these 500 dan.

Wan Shi."

"It should be possible to put it all together."

"We can't give King Yan any chance, otherwise, if we continue like this, everyone will lose and no one will become a winner."

King Qin spoke, but as soon as he said this, the prince of Qin breathed a sigh of relief. After all, he really thought that he wanted the palace of King Qin to provide these 50 million stones of food. If that was the case, it would be better.

"I understand."

Liu Yanming nodded, in this case, it's okay.

"Mr. Liu Ge, I have a few things to ask you alone. Please give me a clear answer."

King Qin didn't seem to care about the food issue, but asked about other things.

"Please ask, Your Majesty."

The latter gave up.

"Do you think the current situation is caused by His Majesty, or... there is someone behind the scenes?"

King Qin opened his mouth and asked the other party.

Faced with this question, Liu Yanming originally wanted to answer that there was someone behind the scenes, but after thinking about it, he fell silent.

After a while, Liu Yanming shook his head and said.

"It's hard for an official to guess, but there is a high probability that there is someone behind the scenes."

Liu Yanming still insisted on his own ideas. After the empress ascended the throne, she did have some tricks that were beyond his imagination. But given her age, the empress was still immature after all.

It can be seen from many things.

So he believed that there must be an expert behind this to guide the empress.

"Okay."

King Qin nodded and spoke immediately.

"In this case, Mr. Liu Ge must be extremely careful when doing things in the future. I don't have much time, and the future is ultimately in your hands."

"It's nothing to stumble. Just pay more attention in the future. Just don't lose yourself. Otherwise, the next time you will not stumble, you may fall into an abyss."

King Qin gave a serious explanation.

"Respect your Majesty's teachings, and your subordinates will keep them in mind."

Liu Yanming responded seriously, while King Qin continued to speak.

"Okay, but these 50 million stones of grain are not given in vain. We need to make it clear to His Majesty that each province is borrowing grain. If the grain is sufficient, it must be returned to each province. The rest must be repaid when the rice is successfully converted into mulberry.

”

"Also, we need to pay special attention to the matter of Da Wei Baochao. After the conversion of rice into mulberry, this matter is the top priority."

"If we can control the treasures of the Wei Dynasty, today's losses will be nothing more than a drop in the bucket."

King Qin spoke up and mentioned another matter.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the sample banknotes have been produced. Once the changes are made, the officials will immediately propose the issuance."

The latter spoke out.

"There shouldn't be any problems with this matter."

King Qin nodded, but he was still a little worried.

"Of course not."

"There is no problem either."

Regarding this matter, Liu Yanming swore firmly that the Wei Baohu Department had not studied it for a day or two, but had been thinking about it for more than 20 years, and had tried it in some cities, and the results were particularly good.

Party Yang was convinced and had nothing to say.

How could something go wrong?

"That's good, that's good."

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Liuge."

King Qin nodded, but the latter did not dare to make excuses and kept saying: "Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty."

"Okay, I will go to rest first, and you will go back and make arrangements in time, otherwise it will be difficult to deliver work tomorrow."

King Qin spoke, and Liu Yanming also said goodbye and left.

After Liu Yanming left, King Qin looked at Liu Yanming's back, then stared at the sky, and spoke slowly.

"Brother, is this the backup plan you have left?"

He said to himself, and the prince beside him suddenly showed a look of astonishment.

And late at night.
