Yuan Li understood what Wen Hu meant after a little thought.
Wen Hu was right, Zhao Cheng had a steady stream of income every day, and even if Yuan Xiu opened his mouth, he could still bear it.
But if Zhao Cheng's business is taken away, Zhao Cheng will lose his way to make money.
This is what makes him most uncomfortable.
"He has a lot of business, what kind of business does he want?" Yuan Li asked.
Wen Hu analyzed: "Zhao Cheng does most of his business in the name of the Oriental Chamber of Commerce. The nominal chairman of the Oriental Chamber of Commerce is Xiao Luomu, but how could I not know that Xiao Luomu is just the spokesperson promoted by Zhao Cheng?
. But Lizi knows that Gui knows, and he still has to keep his face, so he should not touch the business of the Oriental Chamber of Commerce. But there is a business, from the time it was launched to the present, it is all under the name of Zhao Cheng. "
Yuan Li asked: "Xianjiu?"
"Exactly." Wen Hu smiled slightly.
Yuan Lidao: "Xianjiu is the most profitable in Zhao Cheng's business, can he give it to me?"
Wen Hu spread his hands and said, "Isn't this just a real test for him?"
Yuan Lidao: "This sword is quite heavy!"
"Zhao Cheng's matter cannot be delayed any longer. Although the imperial court has agreed to Zhao Huan's resignation, in fact, for Zhao Huan, not much has changed. Not only the people in Yanchuan City, but also many people in the court still care
Their name is Youxiangfu. Sometimes you should kill a chicken with a knife, not to mention that Youxiangfu is not a chicken."
Seeing the hesitation on Yuan Li's face, Wen Hu continued: "His Royal Highness also said just now that compared with General Wang and the Champion King, Zhao Huan and his son have no military power, so there is nothing to worry about. We will cut them with this sword.
Either avoid it or endure it, without the ability to fight back."
Wen Hu approached Yuan Li and said: "His Majesty's heart is no longer in the court. He can be indifferent. Your Highness, you must not be like him! We, Dajing... are still counting on Your Highness!"
Yuan Li suddenly looked at Wen Hu and asked, "Do you really think so?"
Wen Hu cupped his fists and said: "I am loyal to Your Majesty and His Highness, but I am even more loyal to Dajing! In this era of my life, I will never allow the empire I am loyal to to decline!"
Yuan Li sighed with emotion: "Dajing has such good ministers as the Marquis of Shaxian County, which is a blessing to the country!"
…
Yanchuan City.
It is no longer the ‘Youxiang Mansion’ of Youxiang Mansion.
The plaque of Youxiang's Mansion has long been removed and replaced with the word "Zhao Mansion" inscribed by Jin Daxia himself.
Zhao Huan actually had a title, but he didn't want to hang it up, so he felt more relaxed and comfortable in commoner clothes.
After Zhao Cheng heard the request of the person sent by Wei You, he suppressed his anger and sent the person away, then slammed the table in anger.
"Thirty million taels!! Fortunately he can talk!!!"
"Did all my money come from the strong wind?"
"Shameless! Simply shameless!!"
At this time, Zhao Hu, Zhao Yan and Cheng Xu were also in the room. Seeing Zhao Cheng making such a big fire, they all watched and said nothing.
In the end, Cheng Xu plucked up the courage and said, "Master, this has been foreseen a long time ago. Don't get so angry."
After returning from Jingbei County, Cheng Xu changed his name to Zhao Cheng and proved his ability many times. Zhao Cheng completely accepted him.
When he came back this time, he not only settled the business in Jingbei County, but also brought back the Jingling Bow.
Zhao Cheng said: "It's 30 million this time, will it be 300 million next time? As our emperor and my brother-in-law, I really underestimate him!"
Cheng Xu said: "It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Now that the emperor is living a life like a fairy, how can he care about how hard it is for you to make money?"
Zhao Cheng thought for a while and said, "I have to talk to Ayun about this and let her take care of her own brother!"
"Master, wait a minute!" Cheng Xu shouted.
Zhao Cheng stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Xu said: "I don't think it's appropriate to handle this matter through the eldest princess."
Zhao Cheng frowned and said, "Why? Could it be that I can't even trust my wife?"
Cheng Xu said: "Of course I believe in the relationship between the master and the eldest princess, but this matter is not just about money, it is Chang Sui's test of you, master."
"No matter how unwilling you are, you still have to give me the money."
"If the eldest princess helps you appease the emperor, we will be even more passive. The emperor will doubt you, and the eldest princess will be in a dilemma."
Zhao Cheng's expression became more solemn and he said: "Mr. Cheng reminded me that I was confused by anger."
Cheng Xu said: "It would be great if Master can figure it out."
Zhao Cheng said: "But if I spoil him like this, sooner or later my place will be eaten up by him."
Cheng Xu said: "Since ancient times, the rich seem to be prosperous and wealthy, but in fact they are fat meat raised in pig pens by the imperial court. The fatter we raise them, the more they will arouse their desire to eat meat. This principle naturally makes the master
I understand. But as long as we firmly grasp the way to make money, it's okay to cut some meat for the court. It will hurt when cutting the meat, but the meat will grow back soon. But if we don't give it, the court will be anxious.
, I’m afraid the pig will be slaughtered directly.”
Zhao Cheng's face turned dark.
Cheng Xu clasped his fists and said, "That's a bit unpleasant to say, I offended you."
"That's all, I'm just saying something rough." Zhao Cheng waved his hand and said, "You're right, the court just asked me for money, but it didn't want to cut off my financial path. There is no better way now, I can only take it one step at a time.
Already."
Cheng Xu nodded.
At this moment, Xia Qi came over and said: "Master, there is someone outside asking to see you, saying that he is someone sent from the central hub."
"Wei Youcai sent people here, and the central office sent people here again. It seems that not long after we calmed down, we were targeted by the court again."
Zhao Cheng found a chair and sat down, saying: "Please come in."
After a while, a man in his thirties walked in, raised his hand to Zhao Cheng with a smile, and said: "Liao Yiwen, the central minister, has met the Prince Consort."
Zhao Cheng said lukewarmly: "Liao Zhan came all the way to Yanchuan City. It was very hard. What can I do for you?"
Liao Yiwen did not change his expression because of Zhao Cheng's attitude, and still said with a smile: "There is a riot in Tianyong County, a famine in Guliang County, and the Zhenhai camp's extermination of bandits encounters obstacles in Yunjing County. The treasury is now stretched thin. Prince Consort
He is a relative of the emperor and the victorious general of Dajing. At this time of crisis for the empire, the Central Committee hopes that the consort can understand the righteousness and relieve the country's worries."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Zhao Cheng smacked his lips and said, "Are you asking for money again?"
Liao Yiwen asked: "How come the word Prince Consort comes from so many words?"
Zhao Cheng said: "Let's be honest, how much does it cost?"
Liao Yiwen bowed his head towards Zhao Cheng and said: "The prince-in-law has misunderstood. No matter how rich you are, it is your private property. How can the Central Committee reach out to ask for it from you?"
"It's just that as a relative of the emperor, the prince-in-law is in charge of the huge business of fairy wine. It is really hard to earn wealth for the royal family and the court. The Central Committee hopes that the prince-son-in-law can relieve the country's worries and transfer the profits of fairy wine to
The imperial court and the Central Committee are also willing to share the worries of the prince-in-law and manage the fairy wine business for him."
Zhao Cheng stood up in a flash and kicked the chair over.
