The best county magistrate

Yang Xuanchen never thought that Park In-jae would talk about such things in private with him, a minister of Dayan.

With the attitude of listening to gossip for free, he smiled and said, "It must be an easy thing to be able to sit on the position of the crown prince of the Liao Dynasty."

"Only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows the bitterness of this. Perhaps only a rare talent like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can withstand such pressure."

After hearing what he said, Park In-jae laughed at himself, but this smile was somewhat helpless.

"My biological mother is the Empress of the Liao Dynasty. However, she became weak and sickly after giving birth to me, and was not favored by my father."

"Besides, because my mother has been out of favor, my mother's family has been targeted for many years, and there have been signs of the family's decline in recent years."

"..."

As Park In-jae recounted his past, Yang Xuanchen gained a new understanding of him, the prince of Northern Liao.

It is indeed as he said, the position of the Crown Prince of Northern Liao is indeed not easy to sit on. There are too many people watching him. If he does not have some means, he might not even know how he died.

In the early years, Park In-jae fought with the second prince, and in recent years he fought with the sixth prince. The two consecutive battles have caused too much loss to his mother's family.

Since last year, the Fourth Prince has emerged as a rising star. If he gains the upper hand at this critical juncture, the Second Prince and the Sixth Prince might make a comeback again.

His position as crown prince is currently in jeopardy.

This is why Park In-jae is so eager for money. With money, he can not only recruit more staff and followers, but also train more subordinates.

Whether openly or secretly, he was able to step on the other princes and thus consolidate his position as the crown prince.

Yang Xuanchen also admitted that wealth has always been something that people have been pursuing throughout history.

Although not everything can be bought with money, how many people will follow you if you don’t have money?

For faith?

for love?

Don’t be ridiculous. Only eternal interests can bind more people to yourself.

"Your Highness, I understand everything you said."

Yang Xuanchen turned around and looked at Park In Jae seriously and asked, "What is your purpose? Or how do you want me to help you? Just tell me clearly."

Park In-jae's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect Yang Xuanchen to be so direct. He didn't look like an official at all, but more like an experienced businessman.

What I said was nothing more than exposing my timidity and weakness, and then indirectly expressing my strong abilities, so that I could slowly make up for some disadvantages in future cooperation.

Of course, he is also very optimistic about Yang Xuanchen's abilities, and it would be great if he could get his help during this trip to Yueguan Town.

Park In-jae believed that the day when he would pin Park In-bo to the ground and rub him was not far away.

"I believe Master Xiao Yang has long understood my purpose. Silver! I need lots and lots of silver. The more the better!"

"Of course, I also know that money is not so easy to earn, so..."

Yang Xuanchen waved his hand and interrupted Park In-jae, "Your Highness, I still say the same thing, just say it directly."

"Don't think of me as an official, but deep down I consider myself a businessman."

"I'll do anything as long as I can make money!"

Park In Jae burst into laughter upon hearing this. He patted Yang Xuanchen on the shoulder and said, "You and I both know how fast Jucaixuan makes money."

"So I am very optimistic about the development of Jucaixuan in my Great Liao, but..."

Having said this, he deliberately paused, causing Yang Xuanchen to complain in his heart.

You just want benefits, just say it straight, aren't you annoying?

"Your Highness, please don't do it. We can cooperate. I am also willing to give Your Highness a certain amount of shares and dividends."

"I have only one request. Your Highness the Crown Prince must spare no effort to promote Jucaixuan so that silver bills can be circulated quickly in the Liao Dynasty."

"Only when silver bills are truly formed to replace cash, that's when Jucaixuan can really make money."

Yang Xuanchen drew a cake and stuffed it over to him. He didn't believe that Park In Jae would not eat such a cake.

Because some of the profit figures are obvious to everyone.

"Okay! Lord Xiao Yang is a straightforward person, so I'll be frank with you. I want 50% of the profits!"

When Yang Xuanchen heard Park In-jae asking for 50% of the profits, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Your Highness, are you planning to open a bank or rob one?"

He joked, his tone light, yet with a certain unquestionable firmness.

Park In Jae was stunned for a moment, then he started laughing. He knew that his asking price was indeed a bit excessive, but this was the first step in the negotiation, and he always had to leave room for bargaining.

"Master Xiao Yang, are you kidding me? A 50% profit, this is a great opportunity for Jucaixuan to develop in the Liao Dynasty. Isn't it worth the price?"

Park In Jae asked back, trying to hide his guilty conscience with a relaxed tone.

Yang Xuanchen shook his head and put on the look of a shrewd businessman.

"Your Highness, you are making fun of the future of Jucaixuan. Fifty percent? That won't do. We at Jucaixuan also need to eat."

Seeing Yang Xuanchen's firm attitude, Park In Jae knew he couldn't force it, so he changed his strategy, "Then what do you think is a suitable amount, Lord Yang?"

Yang Xuanchen held up three fingers, "30%, no more. Moreover, this also includes your full support in the Liao Dynasty."

Park In Jae frowned, as if weighing the pros and cons, "30%... isn't it too little? Lord Xiao Yang, you have to consider my difficulties."

Yang Xuanchen smiled. He knew that Park Injae needed the money, and Jucaixuan could indeed bring him huge benefits.

"Your Highness, you are a smart man and you should know the value of Jucaixuan. Thirty percent is the limit I can give you."

Park In Jae was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Yang Xuanchen's words, and then suddenly laughed.

"Master Xiao Yang, you are really a good businessman. However, 40%, this is my bottom line."

Yang Xuanchen pretended to hesitate, and then pretended to be determined.

"Okay, 40%, 40%. However, Your Highness, you have to ensure that the development of Jucaixuan in the Liao Dynasty will not be hindered in any way."

Park In Jae patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Lord Xiao Yang. I guarantee in the name of the Crown Prince that I will fully support the development of Jucaixuan in the Liao Dynasty."

"That's settled then, Your Highness, it's a pleasure working with you!" Yang Xuanchen stretched out his hand, and Park Injae smiled and shook his hand.

"It's a pleasure working with you, Mr. Xiao Yang," Park In Jae responded.

Yang Xuanchen looked at him with a happy expression and secretly cursed him as an idiot.

Even if you want 90% of the profits, you will end up with nothing. You are all too young when it comes to finance.

As long as Jucaixuan can take root and sprout in the land of Beiliao in a short period of time, it will be able to bear fruit within three to five years.

If you, Bei Liao, make any moves at that time, don't blame me for being ruthless.

The two chatted for a while about Jucaixuan and made verbal agreement on some details. The next step was to wait for Yang Xuanchen to come to Beijing to celebrate his birthday in July to finalize the specific matters.

"Lord Xiao Yang, I have another favor to ask of you." Park In Jae suddenly said, with an imperceptible hint of cunning in his tone.

Yang Xuanchen was slightly startled, then regained his composure, "Your Highness, please speak."

"I hope that the affairs of Jucaixuan in the Liao Dynasty will be taken care of by my confidants." Park In-jae put forward his request with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Yang Xuanchen raised his eyebrows slightly. He understood the meaning behind this. Park Injae wanted to place his own people inside Jucaixuan in order to better control the situation.

"Of course, our Jucaixuan welcomes the Crown Prince's candidate."

Yang Xuanchen responded with a smile, but he was sneering in his heart. Park Injae had a good plan, but he, Yang Xuanchen, was no pushover.

The two chatted for a few more words and then went their separate ways.

Yang Xuanchen was thinking about his next plan in his mind.

The joining of Park In-jae will undoubtedly bring new changes to Jucaixuan, but he also has his own plans.

Just as Yang Xuanchen was about to leave, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

He stopped and looked back in the direction where Park In Jae left, with a gleam in his eyes.

"It seems that this game has just begun..." Yang Xuanchen whispered to himself, with a playful smile on his lips.

At this time, in Xia Valley Road, a pair of sharp eyes were staring at the road ahead.

"Park In Jae, do you really think Jucaixuan is yours? Let's wait and see..."

Park In-fu's deep voice echoed in the empty valley, carrying with it a hint of unquestionable confidence and ambition.

The prologue of the story has just begun, and the following plot will be even more exciting.
