Chapter 821 Court Struggle, the Choice of the Governor! (1)

Chapter 821

"Haha, the two masters are polite, come and sit down."

Wang Chong raised his palm and pointed at the seat.

"Young master, you summoned us from the body poison this time, what's the matter?"

The three of them sat down, and after exchanging pleasantries, Aroka went straight to the point. Both of them are ascetic monks, and they behave straightforwardly, which is completely different from the Central Plains people.

"Hehe, to be honest, I want to buy another batch of Hyderabad ore from Shendu."

Wang Chong smiled, took a sip of tea, and said directly.

"But my lord, if I remember correctly, after a while it will be the time we agreed on. You don't need to look for us at all, let alone order, the second batch of Hyderabad ore will be delivered soon."

Both of them looked puzzled.

"Hehe, it is indeed like what the two masters said, but this time it is different. But I want to greatly advance the time of this transaction. In addition, I want to change the amount of the transaction. Increase the ore to six thousand!"

Wang Chong looked at the two and said.

Hyderabad ore became famous all over the world with the Uzi steel sword smelted by Wang Chong, and the price also rose accordingly. The current Hyderabad ore price has increased from a few hundred taels to a thousand taels. Six thousand ounces of Hyderabad ore is six million taels of gold, which is close to an astronomical figure.

At least for Shendu, this is definitely an unprecedented deal.

"Young master, you are serious!"

Like a thunderbolt falling, both of them were shocked and looked at Wang Chong in surprise. The two of them traveled thousands of miles and climbed over the mountains. They never expected that Wang Chong would make such a big deal when he opened his mouth. Six million taels of gold, which is probably enough to support the entire body for a year.

"Of course, I have been with the master for so long, when did I lie?"

Wang Chong smiled and nodded.

He has been operating in Wushang for several months, and spent so much time preparing for it, and spent countless manpower, material and financial resources. Now everything is ready, and the only thing he owes is Dongfeng. Five thousand Wushang Iron Cavalry passed through the battle of the triangle gap on the Uzang Plateau, and their strength has greatly increased, their actual combat experience and abilities in all aspects have increased in an all-round way.

However, there is still a huge loophole, which is the equipment.

Whether it was Utz steel weapons or armor made of meteoric iron, Wang Chong's five thousand black-scarred cavalry were not equipped with any of them. Wang Chong had already promised the thousand-woozi steel swords to the great families before the Southwest War. It is impossible to get these things back.

If Wang Chong wanted to equip his five thousand black wounded cavalry, he had to obtain more Hyderabad ore.

"Young master, this is not the first time we have cooperated. We have always been very reassured about you, and the high priest is also very impressed with you. We are very grateful for your benevolence. But you also know the output of Hyderabad ore , six thousand tons of Hyderabad ore... With such a large quantity, we may not be able to satisfy it."

A Luo Jia and A Luo Nuo glanced at each other, both of them frowned deeply.

Hyderabad ore is very important to Shendu, which is probably the biggest source of income for Shendu. As a seller, of course, I hope that as many people as possible will buy it. However, Hyderabad ore is different from ordinary mines, because the density is too high, the difficulty of mining Hyderabad ore is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The huge density and mining difficulty severely limit the output of Hyderabad ore. So even if Wang Chong only said six thousand jun, it was still an extremely huge number for the entire body poison.

"Hehe, of course I know, so this is why I called several masters here. I hope that Shendu can give a lot of favor to the Tang Dynasty in the sale of Hyderabad ore, and temporarily resell the ore sold to other forces. Give it to me. You know the current Hyderabad ore. Only I have mastered the forging method of Utz steel weapons. These precious ores fall into the hands of other people. Wasting it in the hands of ordinary craftsmen?"

Wang Chong put down his teacup and smiled calmly, with a free and convincing force in his expression.

In terms of buying and selling Hyderabad ore, Wang Chong actually has a great advantage. The price he gave is unbearable in any other way, and the forging method of Utz steel weapons has been coveted by other forces so far. Even the two poisoned monks, Aluojia and Aluonuo, were amazed by the gorgeous and sharp lines when they saw it.

From the bottom of their hearts, if they had a choice, the two of them would of course be willing to lean towards Wang Chong. After all, only he could use the Hyderabad ore to an unimaginable peak.

"!!!"

As soon as Wang Chong's words fell, the eyes of the two poisonous monks showed extremely shocking expressions. The poisoned Hyderabad ore is sold in an extremely strict regional division, and it is not completely based on the price. There are many reasons for doing this. The simplest one is that if Shendu suddenly cancels the ore supply of Dashi and Tiaozhi, it is likely to cause the two empires to attack in anger. This is what Shendu has to consider.

Although the body is poisonous, hot, muddy, full of miasma, and the disease is prevalent, few armies are willing to take risks if it is not necessary, but this is not certain. All these things have to be considered by Shendu.

"Haha, I know it's difficult for the two masters to make a choice, but I think the two can tell the high priest about this and let the high priest decide. Moreover, I don't mean to ask the masters to completely cancel the supply of other empires, but Prioritize the supply of the early production to Datang. Wait until our deal is completed, and it will be the same for Shendu to complete the deal with other empires."

Wang Chong smiled softly, as if he had already expected what the monks were worried about.

"In addition, it has been so long, I don't believe that the high priest has not taken any measures to increase the production of Hyderabad ore."

"Young Master is really astute, and you really can't hide anything from you."

The two smiled wryly.

"Since the deal with the son, the high priest has indeed ordered to recruit more manpower to increase the output of Hyderabad ore, and now it has indeed achieved obvious results, but the amount mentioned by the son is still not small for us. numbers."

"I can pay part of the six million taels of gold in advance. I believe the high priest will definitely consider it carefully. In addition, with the gold, the high priest is fully capable of recruiting more people and increasing production."

Wang Chong said.

"This... let's ask the high priest first. Please give us some time, sir, and we will reply you as soon as possible."

A Luo Jia and A Luo Nuo glanced at each other and said.

"good!"

Wang Chong nodded, stayed Aluojia and Aluonuo in the city of steel for a few days, and then sent them out of the city of steel himself.

...

While Wang Chong was dealing with various trivial matters in the Western Regions, the atmosphere in the distant capital was completely different, full of tension.

"The Holy Emperor has an order, all lovers, if you have something to do, act early, and leave the court if there is nothing to do!"

In the court hall, the static whip sounded, and the voice of the eunuch Si Zhe resounded throughout the hall. Under the Panlong Column, hundreds of officials lined up, the atmosphere was suddenly dead silent, everyone was silent, completely different from before, the atmosphere seemed very delicate.

"Your Majesty, I have my own report!"

At this moment, Yu Shi Mengxuan suddenly held the tablet wat in both hands, and went out to play with a serious face.

"Meng Lingcha, the guardian of Qixi, colluded with the four princes, intending to rebel, and lied about his military achievements, deceiving the emperor. It is an unforgivable crime. However, Qixi's frontier pass cannot be without generals for a day. I suggest that the new Qi should be decided as soon as possible. The candidate for the Protectorate of the Western University is to stabilize the morale of the army and guard the border to prevent troubles from arising."

As soon as Meng Xuan's voice fell, all the officials immediately raised their heads and looked at the top of the hall, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Although the surface is still calm, everyone's heart is ready to move, and there is an undercurrent in the hall.

Grand Protector of Qixi!

Since the day Fumeng Lingcha was imprisoned, this position has been vacant and has become the goal that all forces are looking for. As long as one is a person, one has ambitions, and there are definitely not many people in the entire empire who can surpass the position of the imperial guard. It's just that no one mentioned it before, and it's hard for anyone to say much.

But once someone has started, everything is completely different.

"Your Majesty, I propose that Yao Guangyi be the guardian of Qixi Dadu! Yao Guangyi was born in a famous family. When the old Mr. Yao was the prime minister, he had both ability and political integrity. He was deeply loved by the ministers, and even His Majesty was full of praise. Yao Guangyi was deeply appreciated. According to old Yao Gong, the so-called tiger father has no dogs, not to mention that Yao Guangyi is brave and resourceful, with both civil and military skills, he is really the best candidate for the governor of Qixi!"

Before anyone else could speak, King Qi, dressed in a gown robe, jumped out first and said loudly.

"No!"

A voice came from the other side, and the King of Song came out immediately like Yue Zhiyuan:

"Qixi Great Protector at least needs to be at the level of a general of the empire. Yao Guangyi's talent is only in the upper middle, and he is far from a general. He is not good enough to be the Qixi Great Protector!"

"Hmph! If Yao Guangyi is not suitable, I would like to know, who do you think is more suitable than him?"

King Qi sneered.

"If you have to choose Yao Guangyi, I would rather recommend Wang Yan. At least Wang Yan has higher aptitude than him. Moreover, he has made great contributions in the Southwest War, and his ability is beyond doubt. As the chief protector of Qixi, he is better than him. Yao Guangyi is better!"

King Song looked at King Qi and said.

"Nonsense! Since Yao Guangyi is not suitable, is Wang Yan suitable? You yourself said that Qixi Daduhu needs the cultivation level of an imperial general. Do you think Wang Yan is enough?"

King Qi scolded sharply.

"Your Majesty, I think Yao Guangyi and Wang Yan are not suitable!"

Just as King Qi and King Song were confronting each other and arguing fiercely, a piercing voice suddenly came to their ears. Hearing this voice, the faces of the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty, including King Qi and King Song, all changed. Everyone turned their heads, looking for the voice.

Hao Yushi!

Seeing that thin, white-haired figure with an unselfish face, everyone was shocked. The censor is famous for inspecting the world, impeaching hundreds of officials, and being outspoken, and Hao Yushi is the leader among them. He is over sixty years old and has very deep qualifications. He has reached the age of entering the earth. From the king and prince to the minister and county official, Hao Yushi has no taboos, and his impeachment is correct.

Seeing that it was him, even King Song and King Qi were speechless.
