Chapter 85 Only for a Promise
Beichenxuan ran all the way, whistling like a gust of wind cutting through the silent field path. His handsome face set off his unusually cold starry eyes. If Gu Qingyun saw him at this moment, she would yell again, "Asshole!
You lied to me again, that's not who you are, who are you?"
"Girl, wait for me, I won't let you face it alone." A piercing gaze in the star's eyes seemed to penetrate everything, making people dare not look directly.
Beichenxuan calmed down and thought about it. Instead of hating Gu Qingyun, he felt happy that the girl cared about him!
With the girl's character, she will definitely settle the score with Beichen Bai. Although I don't know what she will do, as her man, he should also contribute.
Beichenxuan clenched his fists and clucked. He entered Tianxiang Tower without saying a word and said coldly to the shopkeeper downstairs, "Take me to see You Tianxu."
Tianxiang Building has three floors in total. The decoration on each floor is different, but it is beautiful and makes people feel more comfortable. All the people who come here to eat are rich, but so far only few people can go up to the third floor.
Not much.
The little shopkeeper's heart trembled, and he said respectfully, "It's the young master's house, come with my old slave." He said something to the others and walked into the backyard to everyone's surprise.
The diners eating on the first floor of Tianxianglou all had their eyes widened. You must know that the word "Tianxianglou" is a gift from Emperor Chen. The meaning in it is extraordinary. They dare not offend the shopkeeper, but today he actually let them
I was lucky enough to see the mysterious young master’s house.
Someone among them whispered, "Brother Li, did I hear correctly? Shopkeeper Wu called him Shaodongjia, so isn't he the owner of Tianxiang Tower?"
The man named Brother Li was wearing a light blue gown, swinging a fan, and looked a little excited. "Brother Zhou, you heard me right, that person must be. You see the cold air between his brows, I'm afraid he's out of trouble."
What happened?"
"Brother Li didn't expect you to know faces. If we can establish a relationship with this young master's family, wouldn't we..." Brother Zhou picked up the coal and understood the meaning.
Brother Li shook his head, "Brother Zhou, listen to what I say, it's better to retreat. He is not someone we can climb up to. Let's still drink when he comes."
"Yes, come and have a drink."
In the backyard of Tianxiang Building, the interior decoration of the room is simple and elegant. I never imagined that this place would match the luxurious layout outside. Beichenxuan sat on a chair, tapping his green fingers rhythmically on the table. Suddenly, the whole room felt like a strange place.
During the storm, the surrounding air suddenly became extremely cold.
A handsome man in purple and brocade robes walked leisurely into the room, swinging a bone jade folding fan. As soon as the fan was closed, his expression suddenly became serious, "You Tianxu has met the master."
Beichenxuan nodded, his voice already cold, "Why haven't the other stewards arrived yet?"
"I have already gone to notify you. I believe you will arrive soon."
After a while, the five of them were dressed in different clothes, but they all exuded aura that ordinary people could not possess. They were all nervous when their master suddenly summoned them.
When You Tianxu saw the five people coming in, he smiled and said, "Master, they are all here, what are your orders?"
A man in yellow clothes, about fifty years old, with a goatee raised his hand and said, "Jin Detian from Huitian Bank has met his master."
"Guo Tianxiang of Tianxiang Silk Shop has met his master."
"Qiu Ren of Shanren Medicine Hall has met his master."
"Zhou Tai of Shitai Liangzhuang has met his master."
"Xi Baiwei of Baiwei Hall has met the master."
Beichenxuan nodded and made a gesture of invitation, "Everyone, please sit down."
"Thank you, Master."
The six people sat on both sides one after another. Beichenxuan sat upright alone. Beichenxuan glanced at everyone, opened the door and said, "How much money can Shopkeeper Jin give out from Huitian Bank now?"
Jin Detian held his hands together and said respectfully, "To return to my master, in addition to daily expenses and reserved funds, Huitian Bank currently has 30 million taels of silver that it can misappropriate."
Beichenxuan frowned and said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice, "A Huitian Bank that is so big can only provide 30 million silver?"
Jin Detian trembled and hurriedly added, "This is what the main bank can provide. If the master still wants it, I will immediately have someone transfer the silver from the branch bank, but it will take some time. If all the money is transferred, there will still be fifty million taels."
silver."
After finishing speaking, Jin Detian glanced at Beichenxuan slightly. He couldn't control what their master wanted to do, but it seemed that it was still not enough.
Beichenxuan said coldly, "No need, you can hand over the 30 million Huitian promissory note to Shopkeeper You later."
"It's the master!" Jin Dequan said with a cold sweat running down his forehead.
"Shopkeeper Guo, how much money can your Tianxiang Silk and Satin Factory put out?"
"Back to my master, Tianxiang Silk and Satin Factory, I just received a batch of new fabrics. I can only give out five million taels of silver."
"How much else can you come up with?"
"Shanren Medicine Hall can provide three million taels of silver."
"Shitai Grain Store can provide ten million taels of silver."
"Baweitang can give out twelve million taels of silver."
The bank is the richest, and others have to pay for supplies, so there is not much free funds on hand.
Beichenxuan looked at You Tianxu, "How much money can Tianxiang Tower give out?"
"Including the silver in the secret treasury, Tianxiang Tower can produce a total of 40 million taels of silver!"
It turned out to be exactly ten million taels of silver. Beichen Xuan's starry eyes flashed in a way that made people dare not look directly at him. His finger tapping movements were even faster, like the sound of war drums. The sound was heard and made people jump with fear.
The room was unusually dull. You Tianxu asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want all the shopkeepers to gather all the money together?"
The fingering suddenly stopped, and his eyes suddenly condensed, "How is the expansion of other branches?"
Although You Tianxu is young, it can be easily seen from the eyes of several people that he is the person with the most authority to speak, "We have covered most of Beichen Kingdom. I believe that our branches will be spread throughout Beichen Kingdom in less than three years."
"
Beichenxuan shook his head, "It's too slow. I can't wait three years. I'll give you one year at most."
Everyone trembled, looked at each other, and started talking in low voices. One year was obviously too short. Expansion required a large amount of money. If we invested all these ten million taels of silver, we might not be able to do it.
You Tianxu asked again, "Does the master want to collect all the money and distribute it uniformly?"
Beichenxuan didn't know their difficulties. He had worked hard for five years to achieve such a situation. If he expanded in a big way, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of Emperor Chen, but he could ignore himself, but when he thought of the girl, she
Can you afford to wait three years?
Will Beichenbai give him another three years? Will he give Gu Qingyun three more years?
Beichenxuan stood up slowly, with a sharp look in his eyes, "These ten million taels of silver cannot be touched. They will all be exchanged for Huitian promissory notes. I will find a way to deal with the other silver."
Beichenxuan looked at everyone's solemn expressions and said, "I'll leave it to the shopkeepers here."
The shopkeepers never thought that their master would say this. They were shocked and stood up quickly, "Master, you must not do this. This should be done by us. Master, don't worry, we will lay out the entire Beichen Kingdom within one year. If everything is completed,
If you are not sure, you should raise your head and see the master."
Beichen Xuan's heart was also touched, "The shopkeepers are serious in their words, just do what you can! Remember not to arouse Chen Emperor's suspicion."
"It's the master. If nothing happens, I'll leave first!"
Beichenxuan nodded, "Go ahead! Shopkeeper You and Shopkeeper Jin, you two stay here."
"My subordinates resign!"
There were only three people left in the room, and both of them were quite puzzled. Shopkeeper Jin asked doubtfully, "Master, have you made up your mind?"
Jin Detian and You Tianxu are the only people who know Beichenxuan's true identity, which is why Jin Detian asked this question.
Beichenxuan didn't shy away from it, his starry eyes were as deep as the sea, and he nodded.
The two of them were immediately overjoyed. You must know that no matter how they tried to persuade Beichenxuan before, Beichenxuan would have shook his head because he had no interest in the throne from the beginning until he met the girl. At that moment he understood that loving someone is not just about talking about it.
Yes, just like now, he knew that Gu Qingyun would seek revenge from Beichen Bai, but with his current status, he could not intervene because he was only King Xuan.
You Tianxu couldn't wait to ask, "Have you launched the Bengtian Plan?"
You Tianxu took charge of Tianxiang Tower at the age of fifteen, so one can imagine his abilities. He was also one of the masterminds of the Bengtian Plan.
Beichenxuan shook his head, "It is not appropriate to start it too early for the time being. I have made my own decision on this matter."
You Tianxu's face condensed slightly, "Then the master wants these ten million taels of silver?"
I originally thought it was used for military expenses for the Bengtian Plan, but now it seems that it is not.
"You are the people I trust most. The Bengtian Project is a big deal. Don't mention it in the future without my order. In addition, you can send these ten million taels of silver to me later and hand them over to Miss Gu San with your own hands.
She said, this is what he promised you."
You Tianxu was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Master, this gift is too much. I am not sincere in giving it. It would be better for Master to give it in person to show his deep affection for Miss Gu San."
Beichenxuan sighed, "You think I don't want to, but I just can't let him know my identity for the time being."
This made You Tianxu and the two even more confused. Could it be that their master still has unrequited love? Well, Miss Gu San is not Gu Qingyun. She is not the future princess of Beichen Bai. Emperor Chen still made the decision on this matter.
In addition, it is said that she was still a fool. When she was about to get married, she went straight to Prince Bai's palace wearing a phoenix crown and a halo, and was met with disgrace. Such a fool, how could their master fall in love with her? This made You Tianxu couldn't help but want to meet Na Gu San.
What ability does the young lady have to make their master want to fight for the emperor for her?
Now they all understood why the master was so anxious, but what they still couldn't figure out was when the master had such a close relationship with Miss Gu San. But it doesn't matter who it is now, as long as Beichenxuan
If they have the heart, their years of planning will pay off.
You Tianxu cupped his hands and said, "It's Master, I know what to do."
Beichenxuan put his hands heavily on their shoulders and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
There were some tears in their eyes, "It is my honor for you to work for your master!"
