Killing System, the Ultimate Killer

Chapter 230 It’s winter again

"Oh, my eyes are almost blinded by the light." An official said with red eyes.

They have never seen so much silver.

"This... so much silver!" The eyes of Zuo Yan, the Minister of Revenue, were shining, as if there were golden stars twinkling.

So much silver can completely solve the problem of tight treasury.

His hair, which was almost falling out, can finally be reduced.

When the left prime minister Fu Xiangru saw so much silver, three strands of his beard were pulled off.

So much money, he, the left prime minister of Wei, has never seen.

When the female emperor Han Jiangxue saw so much silver, a strange color flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Unexpectedly, Sheng Huaian actually gave her so much silver.

"Your Majesty, my Ministry of War has a batch of military equipment that needs money to repair." Wang Cheng, the Minister of War, spoke first.

"Bullshit, what does your Ministry of War need to repair? Your Majesty, my Ministry of Works urgently needs silver to build water conservancy." The Minister of Works spoke.

Seeing so much money, they must start fighting, otherwise it will be gone.

"Your Majesty, all this money must be added to the national treasury. The national treasury is running out of money." Zuo Yan, the Minister of Revenue, glared at the other people and said.

These old men actually want to rob him of money?

No way!

The money belongs to the national treasury and must be managed by his Ministry of Revenue!

"Zuo Pifu, you are talking nonsense. You have delayed the construction of water conservancy and delayed the spring plowing next year. Are you responsible?" The Minister of Works said without giving in.

Empress Han Jiangxuexiu held her forehead with her hand. As soon as the money was delivered, the ministers started arguing.

"Your Majesty, my general said that these silver taels are the income taxes from the auction of shops in Hexi City. All of them are handed over to Your Majesty. The silver taels have been delivered. Please accept it, Your Majesty." Deng Wei said.

He was only ordered to escort the silver taels. Now he has delivered the silver taels to the gate of the imperial city and has completed his mission.

"Okay, I will accept these silvers. You soldiers have worked hard. I also see the intention of Lord Sheng." The empress Han Jiangxue said with relief.

"Come here, escort these silvers to the treasury." The empress ordered the imperial guards to escort the silvers to the treasury.

How to use this money must be uniformly allocated.

"Your Majesty, I will take my leave and go back to report." Deng Wei said to the empress with a fist.

"Okay, General, go back and say hello to Lord Sheng for me." The empress nodded with a smile.

Deng Wei returned to Hexi with heavy armored cavalry.

"With such a strong army, there is no worry in the north!" The left prime minister Fu Xiangru said with relief.

"Yes, the soldiers under King Shengwu are indeed elite."

"In a few years, maybe they can catch up with the demon-suppressing army."

The demon-suppressing army is the real strongest army of the Wei Dynasty.

That army has been fighting with the demons at the demon-suppressing pass.

......

In October, the first snow in the north fell in the cold wind.

The flying snowflakes were white.

Overnight, the north became a world of ice and snow.

Another winter, this is Sheng Huaian's second winter in this world.

Hexi City!

A shop quietly launched a cashmere coat.

"Don't miss it if you pass by. The warm and comfortable cashmere coat will keep you warm throughout the winter." The waiter in the shop shouted.

"Hey, it's interesting. I've never seen this way of shouting."

"Cashmere coat? Cashmere can also be made into a coat?!"

"Let's go and have a look. It's very cold in this weather."

With the shouting, many people were attracted.

"Shopkeeper, is this the cashmere coat you are talking about?" A wealthy middle-aged man pointed to the black coats hanging on the wall.

"Yes, this is our newly developed coat. It is very warm. Even if you walk in the snow, you are not afraid of the cold." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"Really?"

Now Hexi City is also covered in snow, and the cold climate makes people shiver when walking on the streets.

"If you don't believe me, you can try it on." The shopkeeper said.

"Okay, find me a suitable one to try."

Soon, the people who were just watching the fun really didn't feel the cold after putting on the cashmere coat.

"This coat is so special, it's really not cold anymore."

"It's so warm, how much is this coat, I want to buy one."

Soon, cashmere coats became popular in Hexi City. They are warm and not expensive, and worth buying.

Many merchants saw the business opportunity and asked if they could cooperate and purchase in large quantities.

A clothing shop outside Hexi City also started to work overtime to start production.

This is of course Sheng Huaian's industry. With so many sheep and so many captives, wool must be used well.

Making cashmere coats and selling them is another considerable income.

Sheng Huaian is running all the way on the road of strengthening the army and making money.

In Sheng Huaian's mansion, everyone gathered together to eat hot pot.

"General, this hot pot is really delicious." Shangguan Shuo enjoyed eating shabu-shabu mutton.

"Not bad, this way of eating makes the mutton tender and delicious, and there is no smell of mutton." Lin Tian buried his head and ate it.

"Your Majesty, is this the black stone you asked people to find? How can this stone burn!" Chen Tianhua, the prefect, was not concerned about eating, but the coal burning in the stove.

"I said it's not called black stone, it's called coal. After processing, it can burn, and it burns for a long time." Sheng Huaian shabu-shabu a piece of sheep tripe for seven seconds, no more, no less, just right.

When the sheep tripe entered his mouth, he finally tasted the familiar taste.

"Come on, everyone, have a drink." Sheng Huaian raised his glass, and everyone raised their glasses to drink.

"Ah, it's great. In the winter, sitting around the stove, eating this hot pot with cashmere and beef is simply a pleasure." Zhang Daniu said with enjoyment.

It's really great to eat hot pot around the stove on this snowy day. They don't know how Sheng Huaian came up with this way of eating.

"It's delicious, but it's just a thin piece in one bite, and it's not satisfying." Chi Tiansheng said.

"You foodie, do you know how to enjoy it!" Sheng Huaian laughed and scolded.

"Your Majesty, can this kind of coal be promoted to ordinary people's homes?" Chen Zhifu asked.

There are many states in the northern border of the Great Wei, and there are many ordinary people. It's uncomfortable in winter, it's cold!

One by one, they hide at home because of the cold, and firewood is expensive and not durable.

If this stove and coal can be promoted to the northern border of the Great Wei, people can avoid freezing to death in winter.

"Yes, of course. The furnace can be produced after the ironworker makes the mold. My soldiers have also found a coal mine. They can mine it after arranging some slave captives." Sheng Huaian said.

As a time traveler, finding coal mines, making furnaces, mining coal and selling it is also a highly profitable industry. How could he forget this profitable industry?

"Great, I will have people start to promote it vigorously." Chen Zhifu felt the temperature coming from the furnace, which was very warm. People sitting by the furnace had rosy faces.

These days, Sheng Huaian has been doing these things besides practicing.

Last year, he had no time and energy to do it. Now he has a lot of time to let his men find coal, make honeycomb coal, and open a cashmere coat workshop.

"Okay, you take my military order and go to the coal furnace craftsman workshop outside the city. Naturally, someone will cooperate with you." Sheng Huaian nodded.

"How is the construction of the straight road going?"

"In another month, it will be built to Zhangye and join the Zhangye straight road construction team." Chen Zhifu replied.

With hundreds of thousands of captives, the construction speed is not slow. With strong human and financial support, it is impossible to slow down.

"What about Xiaoyao Tower? When can it be opened!" Sheng Huaian asked again.

Hearing about the people in Xiaoyao Tower, Xiao Chuyi frowned. She couldn't understand why Sheng Huaian, a martial king, would open a brothel.

Chen Zhifu was helpless. How could he not know the nature of Xiaoyao Tower, but he couldn't stop it.

Who made Sheng Huaian a martial king and the governor of four states.

"It has been arranged and it will be opened in the near future."

"Don't be so reluctant. Anyway, it is under the name of the business. If we don't do it, someone else will. This is a gold-consuming cave. As long as it is well controlled and there is no forced prostitution, we have to provide jobs for those prostitutes to survive."

Xiaoyao Tower, Sheng Huaian made it into a consumption and entertainment complex integrating listening to music, watching dance, eating hot pot, massage and foot washing.

Luo Jingdu also has a Jiaofangsi opened by the court. He has a Xiaoyao Tower in Hexi City. What's wrong with that!

"And the money earned is also used to support the army and people's livelihood. You can't reject it, Mr. Chen." Sheng Huaian said.

"Hey, my reputation is probably not safe!" Prefect Chen sighed.

"How are the caravans going to the Western Regions? Are they increasing?" Sheng Huaian asked while eating.

"Yes, they are increasing."

As time goes by, more and more caravans, carrying goods, go to the Western Regions.
