Chapter 384
Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan with frank eyes.
Bai Qingyan was stunned.
Her person, Ji Tingyu, is near Niujiao Mountain, so Xiao Rongyan came to her.
She glanced at the map, tapped her finger on the stone table and asked, "Is the business Mr. Xiao mentioned related to these mountains?"
Xiao Rongyan straightened up, looked at Bai Qing solemnly, and said, "I'm not going to hide from you, young lady... There are iron mines in these mountains."
He put aside his personal affair and thought about it carefully, Bai Qingyan's people were hiding nearby, and he must not be able to hide Bai Qingyan's mining here.
Since he is mediating with other countries, he also has to fight wits and courage with such a strategic person as Bai Qingyan. It is better to tell each other frankly so as to get together and become friends for mutual benefit.
Moreover, if these mountains are guarded by Bai Qingyan, he will not be afraid of being noticed by the Jin court.
Bai Qingyan looked into Xiao Rongyan's eyes, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Mr. Xiao, it's not so much a business, it's better to say... It's an attempt to lure him with a profit, but I don't know what Mr. Xiao can say."
Standing under the lamp, Xiao Rongyan's gaze was as calm as water, gentle and calm, and as unpredictable as a deep pool with no bottom. Looking at Bai Qingyan's burning eyes with a candle lamp in his hand, he wanted to smile or not, as if everything was under control. For some reason, he I can't help but think of the night of Wanping's farewell, the bright moonlight reflected her beautiful facial features and slender neck, her white and graceful curves, her eyes were calm, and her ears carved from warm jade were completely red. The shy look lingered in his mind.
He stared intently at Bai Qingyan, couldn't help but took a slight step forward, lowered his mellow voice, and said slowly: "Yan wants to join hands with the eldest girl to win a win-win situation. The eldest lady Bai hides in the mountains and creates banditry. He Yan knew it well, and Miss Bai knew it in her heart. Miss Bai wants to hide soldiers in the mountains for the future, she needs weapons, and Dayan needs weapons even more if she wants to strengthen her army and rejuvenate the country."
Xiao Rongyan leaned a little closer, completely surpassing etiquette, but did not act frivolously, just stared at her quietly, the warm and clear light reflected in his dark and deep pupils, there seemed to be warmth.
Her hand holding the lamp slightly tightened, Xiao Rongyan's scent of heavy water and deep fragrance made her breathe faintly, she withdrew her gaze, lowered her eyes, her eyes fell on Xiao Rongyan's luxurious belt and forbidden steps, and turned around quietly to avoid it. Opening Xiao Rongyan, he looked down at the map carefully.
"So, what business does Mr. Xiao want to do with me?" Bai Qing asked indifferently.
"Yan has no roots in the state of Jin, and there is a shortage of manpower, and the Bai family has deep roots, so... instead of bothering to send the loyal and brave people of Dayan to the state of Jin, it is better to join hands with the eldest girl, Yan buys mountains... the eldest girl Opening mines, one-third of the proceeds belong to the eldest daughter." Xiao Rongyan said.
Speaking of it, Bai Qing said that he has made a lot of money and got three points for mining, so the conditions are considered very favorable.
Moreover, Xiao Rongyan came to the door at this time, which can be said to have solved Bai Qingyan's serious trouble.
Raising soldiers requires food as well as weapons.
It is still possible to blatantly buy troops for training in Shuoyang City, Ji Tingyu can handle it with a small number of people now, but in the future there will be enough soldiers and more people? There is also Ah Jue who is far away in the southern border. Although he has the help of the generals of the Bai family army, but the number is limited, there are too many... Jin court is afraid that it will be suspicious.
"If the Bai family opened mines, they would have to protect the mountain from being known by the Jin court. If it was discovered, it would be a crime of extinction..." Bai Qingyan tapped his finger on the sheepskin map, "Mr. The family is taking more risks."
"Yan is a businessman. There is a saying among businessmen that wealth and wealth are sought in danger." Xiao Rongyan looked down at Bai Qingyan's exquisite profile, the delicate angular curves of his ears and neck, and couldn't help lowering his head slightly to get closer to Bai Qingyan's ear With a very low voice, "Miss Bai is the same kind of person as her daughter, and since she has a plan, she will not hesitate."
Bai Qingyan's palms tightened, her ears felt a little itchy, the two of them were very close, her shoulders almost rubbed against Xiao Rongyan's chest, and the rise and fall of his chest when he spoke was within easy reach.
As the rain became heavier, the blue tiles on the roof of the pavilion were washed black and bright, and the mist aroused by the rain on the lake became more and more dense.
Bai Qingyan stabilized his mind, put down the main lamp in his hand, turned around and looked directly at Xiao Rongyan, who was half a step away, with clear eyebrows, and said calmly: "The Bai family opened mines, and the iron ore was smelted into usable weapons and handed over to Mr. Xiao. The family does not take advantage of Mr. Xiao, five or five points!"
Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan's eyes with a smile, stroked the edge of the stone table with his fingers, and approached Bai Qingyan again: "Miss Bai should know, three or seven minutes... Yan has made a big concession."
Bai Qing didn't give up half a point: "Da Yan is such a big country, there are not no mines in the country, especially after taking back Nan Yan, Day Yan's national power has greatly increased. If the guess is right, the reason why Mr. Xiao opened mines in the territory of Jin is because Provide weapons for the Dayan army stationed in Rongdi in the future. Instead of transporting iron ore to Rongdi and trouble Mr. Xiao to arrange reliable people to refine weapons in Rongdi, it is better for the Bai family to do it all. Anyway, whether it is transporting iron ore to Rongdi Mines or weapons, the risks are the same! If the Bai family takes over, Mr. Xiao can use all the loyal and brave people of Dayan elsewhere, laying a solid foundation for the great cause of the future."
Tomorrow's great cause...
Xiao Rongyan's breathing became heavier, Bai Qingyan really understood him.
Those who achieve great things have a broad pattern and never stick to immediate interests.
For Dayan's consideration, as long as Xiao Rongyan and Bai Qingyan can start to conspire together today, in the future, Dayan may invite Bai Qingyan to conspire with him in the future.
Xiao Rongyan never forgot, Bai Qingyan once said... The Bai family protects the people of Jin, not the imperial power of the Lin family of Jin.
"Okay." Xiao Rongyan agreed with a final word, but he never backed away, only quietly staring into her eyes.
Bai Qingyan's palms tightened slightly, Xiao Rongyan's calm aura was really disturbing, she said: "If Mr. Xiao has nothing else to do, I won't let you go. When the arrangements are made, I will let the steward go to Mr. Xiao's side." Steward contact."
She has no intention of being romantic, but she has to admit that Xiao Rongyan himself is a very attractive man.
Although his face is not as stunning as his elder brother Emperor Yan's, but it can be concealed under the gentle temperament, the contours of the facial features are as deep as chiseled by knives and axes, and the city mansion that has accumulated over the years in the world is full of unfathomable calmness charm.
Xiao Rongyan, a wealthy businessman of the Great Wei Dynasty, even though his status was low, his talents and bearing were still outstanding. Even if he stood among the nobles, he stood out like a chicken, and attracted the admiration of many noble women.
The cool wind with water vapor suddenly passed through the hall, swaying the high-hanging lanterns, and suddenly lifted the sheepskin map spread out on the stone table, Bai Qingyan and Xiao Rongyan hurriedly reached out to press it.
The next moment, she and Xiao Rongyan bumped into each other's arms, and her forehead touched Xiao Rongyan's hot thin lips.
In the ears, there is the sound of the rain hitting the lake, the lanterns and candles are flickering, the light spots are shaking, and occasionally koi jump out of the water and make splashes.
The second is to ask for a monthly ticket...
Xiao Rongyan: It's not easy for me!
