The families did not dare to open their mouths, but Xie Jing'an had a lot to say. His eyes fell on the faces of the families and he looked at them one by one. He suddenly smiled and said lightly: "Although the child of the family just now committed the following crimes, But there is a saying that is right, the king really saw that Yao Yuanwai was obedient and obedient, so he asked the craftsmen to hurry up and deliver all his goods. Is that the one who bullied the king? Furthermore, why did the king hand over the goods to him one step earlier? Is it possible that you really don’t know? It only took Yao Yuanwai twelve days to transport all the silver and grain to the , and everyone present here? It’s five days later than him, why does this king not deliver to him, but give priority to you?”

Xie Jingan's tone seemed to be calm, but every word was aggressive. All the aristocratic families who were listening to him blushed and lowered their heads involuntarily. Xie Jingan's expression softened, and he said soothingly: "This king is not the one who waits unreasonably. People here, everyone here sincerely respects this king, and this king naturally treats you all sincerely, but if someone relies on this king to stay away from Chang'an, and is too young to be bullied, and does not take this king to heart, then this king will have no choice but to ignore it. Take you to heart."

With a slap and a pat on the head, all the aristocratic families who were full of resentment were finally calmed down by Xie Jingan's words. Although they still felt a little unwilling in their hearts, they did not dare to say anything. They only watched their noses and listened quietly.

Seeing that the group of people were finally being honest, Xie Jingan tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth, fearing that his face would reveal anything, so he hurriedly covered it with a teacup, and said for a while: "This time, it is really a shame that we can't deliver all the deliveries to everyone here. Helpless, but it’s not like I can’t hand over everything. I went to the workshop to see it before, and there are not many kinds of goods produced, but if it is evenly distributed, each family can still share some, but this way, each family The goods that can be obtained in hand are too little, I am afraid it is not enough for a shop to distribute goods. According to this king, the aristocratic family that arrives later may as well wait. A few more workshops can be built every day, and more goods will be produced every day. According to the time when the silver and food convoys of each family arrive, they will be divided up one by one, and all the goods will be handed over soon. What do you guys think if we don’t delay the distribution of goods by the family that arrived first?”

What do you think?Of course it is not good!There is nothing more wicked than this idea. They are only a day and a half later than the family that arrived earlier, but if they are really lined up like this, wouldn't they have to queue for several days before they can receive the goods.

After receiving the goods, they have to ship them to the states, and then distribute them to the shops. After such a delay and two delays, how many days later than the previous people will they be able to make money. The loss is not one or two, then Baskets of silver!

Thinking that other people only arrived a day or two earlier than them, but made a lot more money, the children of the aristocratic family who arrived later felt that their breathing was tight, and they were almost out of breath. Subconsciously, they wanted to get up and refute, but the remaining rationality told him Being disrespectful to King Shun did not end well, his eyelids twitched a few times, and then he stood up holding his breath and said: "Your Highness's words are reasonable, but for us, the loss is a bit bigger, why not follow His Highness As I said before, let's divide the ready-made goods equally among each family. I have already waited for a few days, and I don't care about waiting for a few more days. Besides, I just discovered a few places to visit in Mozhou recently, and I am very interested in traveling. It happened to kill two birds with one stone."

The son of the aristocratic family who spoke had a peaceful face, but his heart was so ferocious that he almost gritted his teeth. If I can't earn money, everyone else can't earn it, so it seems fair.

As soon as the son of the noble family finished speaking, many younger descendants of the noble family who arrived late echoed his words, with expressions like I'm not in a hurry and I want to play again.

"Brother Cao's words are very true, and it is exactly what I want."

"Brother Cao said, I can't wait. Your Highness doesn't need to be so worried. I'll just wait."

The children of the families who arrived late were not in a hurry, but those who arrived first were very anxious. Hearing the words of these families, they were even more furious. I thought His Highness had a very good idea. Since there are not many goods produced, there is no reason for everyone to wait. It is better to let the first come pick up the goods, so that we can go back to distribute the goods. After all, if we sell the goods one day earlier, everyone in the world will soon One day you know the skills of King Shun, and besides, didn’t Yao Yuanwai who arrived first took away the goods? It’s not possible that Yao Yuanwai left according to the rules, and changed the rules when we came here. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing for His Highness? , making the stewards in His Highness's mansion even more busy."

What this family member said was not unpleasant, every sentence was for Xie Jingan's sake, and every word was closely related to the theme of Xie Jing'an's rules. Hearing that the late arrival of the family was itchy, he wished he could take the risk of offending King Shun. You want to die together with the villainous enemies in front of you, hindering them from making money, no matter if they are family friends or friends, they are enemies from this moment on.

The voices of the children from the aristocratic families who arrived first fell, and those who arrived late couldn't wait to stand up and refute. The flower hall suddenly became a battlefield where the two families saw no gunpowder. The murderous intent revealed by the two parties came out.

As Cui Tong grew up, it was the first time he saw so many gentle and reasonable-looking children from aristocratic families fighting with each other. He couldn't help widening his eyes and relishing seeing it.

Not only Cui Tong watched the excitement seriously, but Xie Jingan also kept his eyes on the flushed faces of their quarrel, almost smiling out of complacency in his heart, but fortunately he reacted quickly and covered the smile on his face with a teacup in time, so that it was not exposed Show his true face.

Yes, this is Xie Jingan's ultimate goal. It's just a foreshadowing in the early stage. He just wants to provoke these aristocratic families. Although it won't make them immediately turn against each other, but it will also create a rift between them. In this way, he can work hard to strengthen himself in the cracks, and when he is strong and strong, he can have the capital to challenge these aristocratic families. It’s embarrassing to poke your paws into the political situation of the fief that he dominates, but he can tolerate the rest, but if someone interferes with his management of the fief, even if the original cheap emperor’s father personally orders, He just pretended that he didn't receive it.

It's not that he has the intention of rebellion, but after seeing the tragic situation of the people in these thirteen states, he can no longer deceive himself as he did when he just traveled through. As the Ninth Five-Year Lord, he only thought that there would be no starvation under his rule, and that the people could live and work in peace and contentment without suffering from wars and chaos, and he was not afraid that they would become refugees someday.

Of course, this lofty goal is still far away from him, but ever since Xie Jingan was defeated by the army in front of him on the city wall of Pingzhou, his idea of ​​being happy with the situation was completely broken. This goal has been formed in Xie Jingan's heart and has never changed. .

Xie Jingan's mind was full of turmoil, but his face was calm and composed. He watched the two sides of the aristocratic family blushing and panting, and then said softly, "I think what the aristocratic families say is reasonable, but I don't know which one to implement." It’s not good to make a decision right away, how about this, you are tired of making suggestions for the king for a day, why not go back to rest first, or discuss and discuss in private, and report to the king when the result of the discussion comes out. good?"

good?What's so good!As for making suggestions, King Shun really talked nonsense more and more smoothly, and they were annoyed when they heard it, but they dared to hold back.

All the aristocratic families slandered in unanimously in their hearts, then forced out a smile, said a few words in agreement, and then watched Shun Wang go away with a depressed mood.

Finally after dealing with these aristocratic families, Xie Jingan heaved a long sigh of relief as soon as he returned to the study, but Cui Tong was in high spirits, and while he was busy preparing tea cups and snacks for Xie Jingan, he said in a puzzled way: "Your Highness, how could you be so quick?" Let those aristocratic families go? The subordinates saw that those aristocratic families were arguing lively. If His Highness hadn't stopped them, the quarrel would not be over for another hour or two. Why didn't His Highness let them continue to quarrel? Maybe it can develop into a martial arts practice, too. I don’t know what it’s like for these literati to fight. The subordinates see their quarrels as those sisters in the palace. Maybe they are the same when they fight? Pull your hair and slap your face?”

Cui Tong didn't know what scene he had imagined, his eyes lit up while he was talking, his little face was full of excitement, Xie Jingan almost spit out a sip of tea when he listened to it, he finally coughed a few times to catch his breath , Xie Jingan flicked his index finger on his forehead, and said helplessly: "I don't know what you have in your head at such a young age. What's so interesting about scholars fighting? You don't know how to fight, and you are tearing each other into a mess. Fighting like generals would be wonderful and thrilling. Speaking of which, I haven’t seen the guards or generals of the palace for some time. Why don’t I wait for General Lin to come back and hold a martial arts competition in the city? This king selects some talents with high martial arts skills, and can also motivate the people to join the army." By the way, it can also enrich the entertainment life of the people, which can be said to kill three birds with one stone. Of course, he only dared to think about the last sentence in his heart, but he dared not say it. Otherwise, maybe Cui Tong asked again, what is entertainment?

Although he wasn't afraid of being suspected by Cui Tong, he didn't want to talk to him about such a profound question.

Xie Jingan fantasized for a while about the lively scene of the martial arts competition, and then gradually regained his thoughts, and asked Cui Tong to ask Master Liu why he hadn't entered the mansion yet.

Liu Zhubo, like Wei Changshi, is a workaholic. In the past, his summons would arrive in half an hour at most. After all, the house he lives in is not far from the palace, but today, for some reason, he was the one who dealt with all the families in the flower hall. It's over, but I haven't seen anyone yet, maybe I fell ill due to the cold.

In this way, he will become even more useless people under his command. Xie Jingan was in a state of panic. Cui Tong, who went out to ask questions, quickly returned to the study with a strange expression on his face. He stopped for a moment before he wanted to speak, and said : "His Royal Highness, the servants who went to summon him said that Master Liu passed out after drinking at home, and he couldn't wake up after drinking several bowls of hangover soup. I'm afraid he won't be able to see His Highness today."

Drunk...drunk?Xie Jing'an thought he was hallucinating, so he asked Cui Tong twice before he was sure he had heard correctly. He was a little dumbfounded, what happened to Mr. Liu Bo today, a man who never drank alcohol in the past and was strict with himself was actually drunk up?Or pick the day when you have something to look for him, could it be that he can pinch and count?Knowing that the king is going to make him work overtime again?
