Chapter 56 Dividing the Spoils

After the auction of agency rights in various states and counties, a group of merchants dispersed.

At this time, Pang Yukun stood in front of Xiao Ming, showing a rare smile on the ground for the first time, and said, "Congratulations, Your Highness, Hexi, Your Highness has received seven million taels of silver this time, which can be said to be gratifying."

Qian Dafu and Li Kaiyuan also showed ecstasy. When did the whole Qingzhou see so much silver, Qian Dafu said: "His Royal Highness, now that we have this silver, our mines, workshops, and manors can all move at the same time. already."

"Yes, there is also a shipbuilding workshop. Zhang Liang is very short of money to build ships, and the caravan is in urgent need of large ships." Li Kaiyuan said.

From the time it was difficult to take out a few thousand taels of silver, and now he has seven million taels of silver in his hand, Xiao Ming suddenly felt like a nouveau riche.

However, when he remembered that only a merchant under the king of Wei had more money than himself, he suddenly became discouraged. The fact that a merchant was like this showed how wealthy the king of Wei was.

He said: "The road is a long way to go. I will search up and down. This is just the beginning. As long as you all work together with this king, this king believes that our fief will not lose to King Wei!"

Pang Yukun glanced at Xiao Ming in amazement. The last time Xiao Ming's "Work in a Guest" had already surprised Pang Yukun. Now Xiao Ming casually said, "The road is long, and I will go up and down to seek it out" is also unique. He couldn't help but Qi Wang's senses changed a little.

For him, Xiao Ming can also belong to the category of scholars, and he is also of the same kind, and his sense of identity is naturally higher.

But I agree, I agree, what needs to be done has to be done, he said: "His Royal Highness, the spring will start in a month, the production team's cattle and tools are still incomplete, and the money in the Qingzhou treasury is not enough... "

"His Royal Highness, the same is true for the old slave's mine. One hundred thousand taels of silver to buy slaves and build a mining area will not be enough soon." Qian Dafu sighed.

Chen Wenlong and Li Kaiyuan handed over at the same time, Xiao Ming immediately raised his hand to the two of them, "No need, this king understands, no wonder everyone is smiling, it turns out to be thinking about this king's money."

The four of them laughed at the same time, and Pang Yukun said, "Your Highness, you can't do anything without money. Now Your Highness is a talented person and has earned a lot of money. I naturally admire it in my heart. It's just for the long-term plan, and this money should be used on the fief. It is."

Xiao Ming smiled bitterly. It seemed that the money could not be saved before it was hot. He said, "That's it, that's it. Tell me how much you need?"

The four of them were delighted. After discussing and calculating, Pang Yukun took 1 million taels to replenish the Qingzhou treasury, Qian Dafu allocated 1.5 million taels to build a mine, and the equipment department used 2 million taels for the construction and procurement of the workshop area. Production.

The remaining 2.5 million taels plus the one sent by Xiao Wenxuan had a total of 3 million taels. With a stroke of his pen, Xiao Ming directly gave 2 million taels to the shipyard.

As the saying goes, a ten-year army and a century-old navy, Xiao Ming does not care about money at all when it comes to shipping. The Great Yu Country is just a market, and the Great Yu Country is just a corner of the world. The real big market is the overseas market, occupying the overseas market. The market can control wealth.

After the "splitting of the spoils", the four of them went back separately. It was no longer worthwhile to have money in their hands. They were ready to let it go.

For Xiao Ming, he is not distressed about silver, because according to modern economics, spending a lot of money on his fief can stimulate the economic development of the fief, which is to stimulate domestic demand, and these benefits will eventually fall on the common people. on the body.

With the remaining bank notes in his hand, Xiao Ming happily went to the palace. This auction finally made him a little richer. Now, should he think about improving his personal life? For example, go to a green building, chat with the oiran, and other entertainment activities?

All the way, Harazi kept imagining whether the oiran in the Great Yu Kingdom was a beautiful movie star, when suddenly there was a rush of hooves.

Xiao Ming turned his head and saw Lu Fei rushing towards him on a horse.

His heart tightened. In this case, Xiao Ming had to worry. Although Lu Fei was also his close minister now, apart from Qian Dafu, Xiao Ming could not have 100% trust in others.

After all, to him, these belonged to outsiders, and it took a long time to build trust.

When Lu Fei rushed over, he couldn't help being a little nervous, and the shadow of the assassin was still haunting him.

"His Royal Highness!" Lu Fei only restrained his horse when he rushed in front of Xiao Ming, dismounted, and Lu Fei looked aggrieved, "I heard Pang Changshi say that His Highness has made a lot of money this time, a total of seven million yuan. The two giants, the Governor's Mansion, the Department of Equipment, and the Shipyard have all received a lot of money, why did His Highness forget the Qingzhou Army, isn't the Qingzhou Army raised by your own mother?"

Xiao Ming really wanted to slap Pang Yukun to death now. He said why Pang Yukun showed a mysterious smile when he left. It turned out that he was waiting for him here.

He took out the remaining silver notes from his arms, and Xiao Ming handed the money to Lu Fei, his heart was bleeding," Who said, it's just that this king is going to hand it over to Captain Lu, this is the rest One million taels are all given to you, this Qingzhou Army King has always attached great importance to it."

Lu Fei was overjoyed with the silver. Since he came to the Qingzhou Army, the Qingzhou Army has never been really rich. He smirked and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Xiao Ming waved his hand, and Lu Fei got on the horse and went back happily.

"Hey, after decades of hard work, one move back to before liberation." Xiao Ming returned to the palace in dejection.

In the palace, Aster was directing the housekeeper Ding to tidy up the vacant room and put the gifts sent by the merchants in. Seeing this, his mood suddenly improved.

He has been frugal for the past two months, and now he can at least improve his food, because he has seen a lot of vegetable oil, beef, venison and other food in it, and the others are some ginseng, snow lotus, silk satin, pen and ink Inkstone, jade, porcelain, gold and silver utensils and other luxury goods in Chongqing,

Seeing Xiao Ming coming back, Luluo came over happily, "His Royal Highness has received a lot of gifts this time, enough for our palace to spend some time."

"No, there are some merchants who are hiding silver in gifts." Ziwan walked over gracefully and gave the silver note in her hand to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming took it over and looked at it. Lin Lin always had a bank note of 200,000 taels, and each piece of silver tael had the word "Cao" quoted, just like the other bank notes.

"Hey, Pang Yukun, Pang Yukun, people are not as good as heaven, put away the money, but don't let Pang Changshi know." Xiao Ming reminded.

Aster understood and smiled lightly: "Pang Changshi must have taken all of His Highness's money."

Xiao Ming nodded. In fact, he understood Pang Yukun's mind. He wanted Xiao Ming to spend his money on the right path, so he didn't blame him.

However, hiding some private money does not violate the principle, and it is necessary to improve life.
