As soon as Xie Jingan's words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became a little silent. Except for Mrs. Chen, the rest of the aristocratic family subconsciously looked at that person, especially the Zhang family's children, their lips trembled nervously.

The person who spoke was introduced by the princes of the aristocratic family, so he naturally has some abilities. He was pressed by Xie Jingan, but he was not in a hurry, and even his expression did not change. , I was disrespectful in front of His Highness, and I hope His Highness will forgive me."

In one sentence, the cause of Mrs. Chen's anger was classified as an ordinary matter. This matter was finally revealed. Everyone was relieved, and the children of the Zhang family looked at that person gratefully.

Only Xie Jing'an was very unhappy, these aristocratic families were really slick, they simply treated him like a fool.

It's fine if he didn't care about it in the past, but if he stirs up trouble at this time, if he doesn't get to the bottom of it, wouldn't it not only chill Old Master Chen's heart, but also fuel the arrogance of these people?

Xie Jing'an was thinking in his heart, but there was no clue on his face, he still had a calm and gentle appearance, even because of the man's words, his expression slowed down a bit, but before all the aristocratic families showed a smile, he changed the subject, faintly Glancing at the man, he looked at old Mr. Chen again and said: "Really, what did Mr. Chen tell this king, and things are exactly as they said? Are you really doing this because of the discussion? It's not because someone bullied you. you?"

As soon as Xie Jingan insulted the words, the Zhang family's children felt their legs go limp and they almost knelt on the ground. They managed to stand still, but they were also sweating coldly. Seeing the old master Chen, their hearts almost jumped out of their nervousness.

Mrs. Chen was still standing still, and almost without thinking, he bowed slightly and saluted, and said in a hoarse voice: "Return to Your Highness, this is not what they said, there are indeed people who bullied the old man, not only with words, but also alluding to His Highness harboring evil intentions." , to seek to seize my family property from the Chen family."

After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, not only did everyone turn pale with shock, but the Zhang family's disciples even crooked and fell off the chair with a bang. With tea all over his face, he was in a terrible embarrassment.

Everyone was not in the mood to help him, but they all looked ashen, even the man who was pushed out by the public with a glib tongue had an ugly face, and he didn't know how to tell, looking at the expression of gnashing teeth, I'm afraid they already hated him , I just don't know whether it's old Mrs. Chen, Xie Jingan, or meddling meddling that I hate.

Xie Jing'an saw that the old master Chen was so knowledgeable about current affairs, he was in a good mood, and he didn't bother to pay attention to those guys who were obsequious and disobedient, and said with a half smile: "It's really courageous to criticize this king in my palace, so it turns out that this is the character of a child of an aristocratic family. This king has opened your eyes, and moreover, since you have many opinions on this king, you should avoid wherever this king goes in the future, so as not to hinder your eyes and pollute this king's eyes."

As he spoke, ignoring the tearful begging of the Zhang family's children, he pointed at two old guards to set him up and drag him out. With the lesson learned from such a chicken, the others shrugged and kept silent, wishing they could just disappear in front of King Shun. So as not to implicate yourself.

Fortunately, even though Xie Jingan wanted to make an example of others, he also knew that enough was enough, but he still had to beat them, lest these people lose their memory and turn around to bully old Mrs. Chen.

Thinking in his heart, Xie Jing'an turned his eyes to the person who was pushed out by the public, his lips parted slightly, and was about to say something, when he saw the person suddenly cupped his hands and bowed to the end, and said eagerly: "His Royal Highness, I have made up my mind." , decided to join the Chamber of Commerce established by His Highness, I wonder if it is possible?"

When he said this, it was difficult for Xie Jingan to slap his words. After being slightly stunned, he felt a little emotional. In these aristocratic families, there are still a few idiots, and the most are smart people, such as Yao Bin, Old Master Chen, and the strong man in front of him who had his wrist broken.

Yao Bin's cleverness is knowing how to read the situation, Mr. Chen's cleverness is not to sway left and right, but this person in front of him seizes every opportunity to win people's hearts. Once he falls into a dangerous situation, he will decisively use part of his interests to turn the situation around.

Such a person can be friends with, but not deep friends. After all, no one knows whether he is like a brother to you at one moment, and will stab you in the back because of interests in the next second.

Xie Jingan took a deep look at him, registered a number for this person in his heart, and then said with a slight smile: "Naturally, if this king sets up this chamber of commerce, as long as he has enough money and courage, he will not refuse anyone who comes, and you will naturally enter." Got it."

It seemed that he did not make a mistake in taking this step, and the man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Xie Jingan did not refute.

Seeing this, the other aristocratic families ignored the worries in their hearts and expressed their desire to join the chamber of commerce. Naturally, Xie Jingan would not refuse, and agreed one by one. He was also afraid that they would repent, so he asked Cui Tong to personally hold the contract, and he watched the signings one by one. It has been digitized and charged.

Xie Jing'an calculated in his heart, and with the addition of merchants, nearly [-]% of the people who came today were willing to join the chamber of commerce, that is, ten people, which was much higher than he expected.

Xie Jingan was originally a little unhappy because of Mrs. Chen's affairs, but now that he thought about the millions of income he would earn every year in the future, his mood immediately improved. If there were no outsiders present, he would have laughed out loud.

He also emphasized a few words with the people in the courtyard, and told them that they must report to him the number of participants in ten days at least, and half a month at most, and then left them for lunch, and hurriedly sent them chased away.

Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it was considered smooth, so Xie Jingan was quite satisfied, even walking as if the wind was blowing under his feet, and he arrived at the study almost in the blink of an eye.

When you have something happy, you have to share it with others. In the past, Xie Jingan was alone, so he would be happy in private, but now that he has a boyfriend, he will naturally not wrong him, so he will sign the contract with the merchants of the aristocratic family Throwing it into the cabinet and locking it, Xie Jingan couldn't wait to ask Cui Tong: "Where's General Lin? But he went to the barracks outside the city again?"

In recent days, Xie Jingan would ask Lin Yan every day, so Cui Tong was very used to it, and he also regarded it as his duty to pay attention to Lin Yan's movements every day, and when Xie Jingan asked, he immediately replied: "Return to Your Highness If so, General Lin did go to the barracks early this morning, but he only practiced for two hours before returning to the city and heading to Duizheng Zhao's mansion."

"Zhao Duizheng?" After Cui Tong said this, Xie Jingan suddenly remembered that Lin Yan told him two days ago that Zhao Duzheng had been injured for a long time, and now he was finally able to get out of bed, but not yet. Use force, after all, although the wound heals well, there is also a risk of tearing.

At that time, he seemed to have promised Lin Yan that he would take time to watch it with him these days. Why did Lin Yan suddenly abandon her and go, but what happened to Team Zhao?

Now that talents are scarce, any loss would be enough for Xie Jingan, so he couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and asked, "What happened to Captain Zhao? But what happened to the Zhao family?"

Cui Tong shook his head, smiled and said: "Nothing happened, but Zhao Dui was lying down these days, a little depressed, and he insisted on practicing martial arts despite his family's obstruction, and accidentally opened the wound, causing Mrs. Mrs. Zhao cried several times, fearing that Duizheng Zhao would not listen to her advice, she invited General Lin to let him try to persuade Duizheng Zhao."

It turned out to be like this, Xie Jingan heaved a sigh of relief, and couldn't help laughing: "These warriors really get itchy all over without using martial arts for a day, and it's better to save a life with great difficulty, but they can't help but ruin their lives." own."

Xie Jing'an was spitting bad words, but he couldn't help thinking in his heart, Lin Yan is also a martial arts idiot, could he be the same as Zhao Duzheng, even if he has injuries on his body, he can't help practicing martial arts with injuries?

Xie Jing'an thought about it, and suddenly remembered that Lin Yan was seriously injured in Tanzhou. Although the injury has healed now, he didn't know if there were any scars left. I didn't think to ask, if I'm so incompetent as a boyfriend, will it make Lin Yan feel that I don't care about him that much?

People who are in love can't help thinking about it. The more Xie Jingan thought about it, the more he felt restless. Just as he was about to stand up and tell Cui Tong to prepare his horse, he was going to the Zhao Mansion when he heard the report from the guard outside the door. : "His Royal Highness, Master Liu please see me."

Although Xie Jing'an wanted to see Lin Yan very urgently, but he also knew that Liu Zhubo would not come to the door easily, so he had to endure it for the time being and asked Cui Tong to invite him in.

Now his mind is full of Lin Yan, and he has no intention of being polite to others. As soon as Liu Zhubo stepped into the door, he couldn't wait to say: "Liu Zhubo asked to see this king, but what happened to the fief?"

Mr. Liu Bo rarely saw Xie Jingan's impatient appearance, so he was slightly taken aback. He only thought that he was concerned about the matter of fiefdom, and he didn't think deeply about it. He saluted and replied, "Your Highness, cement, food, grass and other military supplies, please pay attention." The subject is already ready, I came here to ask Your Highness, when will the team leave?"

The matter of transporting military supplies to the border is also a major event in the fiefdom. Xie Jingan calmed down when he heard this, and asked, "How many people have been recruited for this military supply team?"

Liu Zhubo said: "Your Highness, there are not many people recruited, just over a thousand people, mostly old and young, women and children, but if you add the criminal slaves who were exiled near Mozhou, there are more than five thousand people in total. "

More than [-] people sounded a little less, but it was barely doable. Xie Jingan thought for a moment, then turned his attention to the old and weak, women and children, and couldn't help frowning: "It's fine for old people and women, anyway. It's an adult, but what's the matter with this child, no matter how short this king is, he can't let the child suffer this hardship, what if he gets sick on the way?"

Liu Zhubo said: "Your Highness, don't worry, these children are only compared to adults, but in fact these children are already twelve or three years old, and they are half a strong laborer in the farmhouse. Besides, I have equipped the team with a few Among the famous doctors, there are still many medicinal herbs, as long as they walk slowly, eat enough and wear warm clothes, it will be a good thing."

Xie Jing'an also knew that in this age, the [-]th percentile, the [-]th grader was indeed not young, but his thoughts remained at the age of the [-]th grader or a primary school student, so he couldn't help sighing: "Forget it, the fief is also short of people, there is really no way, just After all, these children are immature and still young, so they must be taken care of by the accompanying guards, not to mention that there is meat for every meal, they must eat once a day or two, so that they have the strength to go on the road, and children are not like adults. They are generally strong and strong, so two of them must be selected from the doctor's team to watch those children. If anyone has a headache, he will be treated immediately. All expenses will be borne by the palace, remember?"

Xie Jing'an said so much, even if Mr. Liu is used to it, he couldn't help but sigh, whoever said that King Shun has a violent temper is really nonsense, look at how he patiently instructed these half-grown children, if he has a violent temper, as long as he I'm afraid there are no soft-hearted people in this world.

Mr. Liu felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Seeing Xie Jingan's eyes getting closer, he agreed several times. Seeing that he seemed to have finished his instructions, he asked about today's affairs: "Your Highness invited various families and merchants to a banquet today. With the Chamber of Commerce, how is the result? Is it going well?"

"It's pretty smooth," Xie Jing'an said, "There are some surprises."

"Unexpected joy?" Master Liu was taken aback, and couldn't help but said, "What's the happy event? Is it the imperial decree sent by the sage? Or is it that the Ministry of Households has been holding His Highness's money and is about to send it?"

Xie Jing'an never expected Liu Zhubo to have such a reaction, and he couldn't help being a little relieved, but also a little guilty. Look at what a good literati is being forced into by him.

In the past, he opened his mouth full of poems and dictionaries, but now he talks about workshops or money, and he has nurtured him into a businessman.

But it's not a bad thing. Poetry and dictionaries can't give him money, and they can't help him build a fief. Liu Zhubo's change is just to adapt to the changes in the environment.

Xie Jing'an comforted himself in his heart, and immediately put his guilty conscience behind him, with a bit of pride, he opened the cabinet just now, took out the stack of contracts and handed it to Liu Zhubo, and said with a smile: "Look, this Who's in there?"
