Travel through space and help the prince’s husband in construction
Chapter 739 Unnamed Draft 40
After hearing what the old man said, they didn't know how to comfort these people, but since they had already escaped, they should find a place to stay. Looking at the clothes and belongings of these people, they didn't seem to be rich, so the leader kindly took out some of his property and gave each refugee two taels of silver so that they would have more money in hand when they found a place to live.
But where can these people go? The leader thought of the previous county magistrate, from whom he had received some benefits, so he wrote a letter and asked them to take it to the next county town's affordable granary and give it to the shopkeeper, who would help them and the county magistrate. Please arrange for them to stay in a nearby village.
The old man held the letter, not knowing how to express his gratitude. The real gold and silver was given to each of them by a passerby. Such a kindness could not be repaid, so the villagers put down the things they were carrying and knelt down to give. The leader of the caravan kowtowed to express his gratitude.
The leader told them not to worry about it. They had suffered a disaster and he could not help them. He could only help a little bit. He hoped that they would have a safe and smooth life in the future. Then the leader continued to lead everyone forward.
However, if the bandits were not sent out, they would harm more people, so the two cultivators immediately sent a text message to their fellow apprentices nearby, seeking their help. Soon, four cultivators and their fellow apprentices replied to the text message. After they learned about the incident, they found out the location and immediately went there to rescue the people. They wanted to completely eliminate the bandits and give the people a stable living environment.
Although they experienced some night thefts and small-scale robberies later, they did not lose any goods because they were vigilant and well prepared. They also caught some thieves and sent them to the government, where they were rewarded by the officials.
When this caravan sold all the goods from Beichuan and exchanged them for furs and dried meat and returned to Halibamo, the caravans that went to other places to worship had already returned. Each of them also gained something.
Prince Hongdu called them together to share their experiences on this business trip, especially the troubles encountered by the caravan during the journey and how to deal with them.
During the discussion, everyone actually mentioned the senior brothers of Prince Duanjing and the Princess, and how they saved them at the critical moment.
If it was just a coincidence that a couple encountered such a thing, it would be a coincidence. However, all the caravans received help from Senior Brothers Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan in dangerous moments, which was not a coincidence.
Hongdu wondered if this mysterious Prince Beichuan and his princess consort were secretly helping him?
But he has no friendship with the two of them.
When he was the crown prince, he had met the two of them once. They only exchanged a few pleasantries and did not become close friends. Why did the two of them send their brothers to protect his caravan during its journey?
With such doubts in mind, Hongdu wanted to meet with Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan, thank them properly, and then ask about their true intentions.
It was such a coincidence that when Hongdu went to the palace to visit the king again, he happened to meet Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan discussing something with the old king in the palace.
When Prince Hongdu saw the two of them, he immediately greeted them very politely, and then expressed his gratitude to them frankly.
Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan smiled at each other, and Li Mohan said, "You don't have to thank me, my prince. This is just a piece of cake.
We also feel that your caravan members are very fair in doing business. The merchants are very honest in doing business.
That is why we ask you brothers to protect your caravan if you come across it during your travels."
Prince Hongdu was puzzled and asked, "Please tell me why you two nobles think so highly of a prince from a small country like me?"
Li Mohan smiled but said nothing, "The time has not come yet. The prince will know it in the future."
Just as Prince Hongdu was about to continue asking questions, the old king spoke up, "Well, since Prince Hongdu has returned safely, go about your business. I have important matters to discuss with the two nobles."
Seeing this, Prince Hongdu had to leave first.
After Hongdu left, he was still full of doubts, but he also understood that it was not appropriate to ask too many questions at this time.
A few days later, Hongdu received a mysterious letter, the contents of which surprised him.
It turned out that the letter was sent by Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan, and it revealed a secret - someone was trying to take over his business, and it was probably Jiayang who ordered his men to do it. The caravan in Hongdu became their target.
Li Mohan and Xiao Yunyan hope that Hongdu can use the power of the caravan to secretly investigate the matter, while also protecting himself.
Hongdu realized that even though Jiayang had been sentenced to prison, he still had not curbed his ambitions.
Hongdu felt that he had never done anything wrong to his brother Jiayang. However, Jiayang not only framed him, but also pushed him down from the position of crown prince and replaced him. Later, Jiayang also continued to suppress him ruthlessly.
Now, Jiayang has lost his position as crown prince and has become a prisoner, but he still hasn't given up his fear of and attempts to sabotage Hongdu.
He decided to launch an investigation, find out the evidence, and order his men to be more careful. At the same time, he also had to secretly cultivate his own power.
Hongdu valued Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan's help more. He didn't understand why the two of them took special care of him. What was the deep meaning of Prince Duanjing and the Princess?
Although the two had explained, Hongdu thought it was not that simple. After thinking it over, he wondered if Prince Duanjing and his wife wanted to pull him into their business empire. If so, he would be more than happy to do so.
Hongdu guessed that perhaps the two wanted to help him while secretly observing his behavior and character.
If he passed their test, he would most likely be reused by Prince Duanjing and his wife.
Although Hongdu was once the crown prince, after experiencing many ups and downs, he was not at all interested in fighting for the throne and power.
Hongdu really likes doing business. He wants to make enough money to give his family a carefree life and to provide a better living for his subordinates.
He envied the fact that Prince Duanjing and his wife had made their fiefdom prosperous and strong. Now, they were the prince and princess of Beichuan. Today, all parts of Beichuan have also achieved great commercial development, laying an economic foundation for the overall development of Beichuan.
Although Hongdu didn't want to be a king, as a prince of a country, he still wanted to help his people live a peaceful and happy life.
Hongdu began to investigate the targeting of the industry. He used his business acumen and connections to arrange for his men to run the caravan business while collecting clues. At the same time, he also told the caravan members to remain vigilant.
In the process, Hongdu gradually discovered that things were far more complicated than he had imagined. Jiayang's men were not only cunning and cunning, but also had strong military strength and were helped by other forces.
Despite facing numerous difficulties, Hongdu did not back down. He firmly believed that as long as he persisted, he would be able to find the truth and protect his industry.
At the same time, he also worked harder to run his business, hoping that one day he could expand his business network to other continents like Prince Duanjing and Princess Royal.
Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan have been silently paying attention to what Hongdu has been doing.
The couple both felt that Prince Hongdu was not weak in personal ability, but he was not obsessed with power. However, Hongdu did not lack great ambitions.
He has a business mind, but he is not focused on small profits, nor is he narrowly concerned with his own business and not caring about the lives of the people. Hongdu wants to expand the business network and drive more people to profit in the process.
Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan valued Hongdu so much because they felt that he had been wronged after Jiayang pushed him down from the position of crown prince, but Hongdu did not retaliate. This kind of mind is not something that ordinary people can have.
On the other hand, Hongdu is not only broad-minded, but also upright and kind, and cares a lot about the people.
It would be a blessing for the people if such a capable and kind person could become a leader in business in Halibam and even in several surrounding countries.
Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan are willing to incorporate him into their own business system.
Although they both have more money than they can spend in dozens or even hundreds of lifetimes, they do not run the business for themselves.
If Hongdu passes the test and is absorbed into their business system, more people in other countries will benefit.
The living environment of nomadic tribes is constantly changing, which has led to the inability of their businesses to develop better.
Although Xiao Yunyan also sent caravans to several surrounding countries to do business, it was a time-consuming and laborious task after all.
If local people can cooperate in managing local collection and sales, purchase the specialty products made by a wider range of nomadic people, and sell them to areas that need those goods, it will be a great thing for these nomadic people.
Not only can it increase their income, but the caravans can also bring them more daily necessities. In this way, more people will benefit.
First of all, Hongdu is a person who has such ideas. He is also a person of extraordinary ability and integrity. Therefore, Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan both think that he is someone worth cultivating.
Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan didn't know much about Hongdu at first, but during their conversations with the old king and the third and fourth princes, they heard nothing but praise for Hongdu.
Xiao Yunyan and Li Mohan were concerned and asked their subordinates to secretly investigate. The results they obtained also made them very satisfied. That's why they paid attention to and secretly helped later.
During the investigation, Hongdu also discovered that Jiayang's men were colluding with some forces in neighboring countries. Although they were quiet on the surface, they were secretly making small moves, and seemed to be planning a bigger conspiracy to try to have a greater impact on several surrounding countries.
Hongdu knew that the situation was serious and he could not just sit there and wait for death. He decided to go to the neighboring country in person to negotiate with those forces. On the way, he encountered many attacks. But with his extraordinary wisdom and his men who desperately protected him, Hongdu was able to escape danger every time.
Finally, Hongdu successfully met with the leaders of the neighboring countries who had cooperated with Jiayang's men and exposed their conspiracy. More importantly, he persuaded the leaders of these forces that if they continued to cooperate with Jiayang's men, they would probably not get much in terms of benefits, but would suffer.
He promised that if the other party gave up the conspiracy with Jiayang and his men and instead conducted normal business dealings with him and cooperated with the Haribam State in other areas, they would get greater benefits and be more secure. However, the other party was unwilling to easily listen to his threats and exhortations.
After all, Hongdu is no longer the prince of Haribam. His influence is not strong, and even though his caravan is developing well, it has not yet formed a large scale that can attract the attention of the ruling forces of these countries.
However, these cases did not show obvious malice towards Jiayang and his men. The other party was also weighing and considering. Although Jiayang promised them many benefits, Jiayang's actions failed repeatedly, and he finally lost his position as the crown prince. They were increasingly losing hope in Jiayang. Although they still insisted on owing the debt, they were more optimistic about the abilities of Jiayang's men.
Therefore, the other party's ambiguous attitude brought the negotiations between the two parties to a deadlock.
Hongdu visited the ruling forces of several countries in succession, but he did not make any significant progress. He was a little distressed. Although staying here would not necessarily lead to new progress, he was unwilling to leave without reaching any conclusion.
