Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

Xiao Zirong was slightly taken aback, Yuan Jia?

Ever since what happened with Yuan Ke, Xiao Zirong and Yuan Jia have had no contact with each other, and even the transaction has been broken. He originally agreed that he would not have any contact with the Northern Wei Dynasty in the future, but now the other party has taken the initiative to contact Yuan Jia. He contacted?

Xiao Zirong asked, "Where is the letter?"

Liu Cainiang hesitated and asked, "Your Highness really wants to see it?"

Xiao Zirong said with a smile: "It's nothing to look at, you should have checked it? There is no poison in it, right?"

Liu Cainiang said: "Yes, I have checked it, but the letter has not been opened, please wait, you can read it after I open it."

Without Xiao Zirong's consent, they would not have dared to open the letter.

Xiao Zirong said indifferently, "Don't worry, neither Yuan Jia nor Yuan Ke wants me to die at this stage. Since they misunderstood the relationship between me and my brother, they won't go too far."

If something happened to Xiao Zirong, they still had to worry about Xiao Xuexing going crazy.

Xiao Zirong took the letter and opened it. Yuan Jia's tone was the same as before, but he mentioned that he still had people in the Northern Wei Dynasty - Chunsheng and the two guards.

And teased that his business has plummeted now, so he can hardly afford to support these three people, and asked Xiao Zirong when he would take them back.

Xiao Zirong looked at the letter paper and said thoughtfully: "It seems that he can't bear it anymore and wants to restart the transaction."

It seems that Yuan Jia has been unable to make ends meet recently. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that Yuan Ke may also be a little uncomfortable.

Otherwise, without Yuan Ke's consent, it would be impossible for Yuan Jia to dare to write him a letter to test him out. As Yuan Jia is Yuan Ke's money bag, Yuan Ke will be tied up if Yuan Jia has no money.

Liu Cainiang was very angry and said, "Who wants to continue trading with them?"

Xiao Zirong didn't respond at all: "Of course we have to trade, why don't you make money if you have money?"

It just so happens that he is also short of money. Didn't he just want to run on the salt merchants of the Northern Wei Dynasty?While running on the opponent's salt merchants, it also allowed the Northern Wei Dynasty to collect less taxes, and the revenue from the treasury decreased with less taxes.

As for whether Yuan Ke will use his own money to subsidize the national treasury, that is his business, what does it have to do with Xiao Zirong?

Xiao Zirong wrote a letter as soon as he picked up the pen. In the letter, he scolded Yuan Jia bloody, and even showed his resistance to letting Yuan Ke make money.

Liu Cainiang stood beside him and watched the whole process, Xiao Zirong didn't let her avoid him, she looked at a loss: What's the situation?Didn't you just talk about doing business?

Xiao Zirong didn't explain either, the business was going to be restarted, but he had to make the business more secure, so that the two people wouldn't act rashly, and cut off contact if there was anything to do.

In fact, he wasn't worried about Yuan Jia. Most of Yuan Jia's wealth came from selling salt. As long as the other party still wanted money, he wouldn't offend Xiao Zirong.

What he was really defending against was Yuan Ke, and now Yuan Ke couldn't hold on anymore, but Xiao Zirong needed to give him some hope, if Xiao Zirong was willing to reply to Yuan Jia's letter, there was still room for discussion.

After the letter was sent, Xiao Zirong thought about it and wrote another letter to Xiao Xuexing.

He feels that business contacts are also an opportunity, an opportunity to find out about the situation in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although Yuan Jia is not particularly important in the Northern Wei Dynasty, he has a high status and status, and he must know more than ordinary people. If he can get some information from him for analysis , It should be much easier than distinguishing true from false after private inquiries.

It's just that after writing the letter, Xiao Zirong remembered one thing - he said two days ago that he would not write to Xiao Xuexing, but he turned around and wrote a letter to the other party, angry.

But not writing is not enough, he has to explain, and let Xiao Xuexing find a way to send someone over there by the way.

After writing the letter, Xiao Zirong said with emotion: "Chunsheng and the others probably won't be able to come back."

Although Chunsheng and the others are not important, they can barely be regarded as hostages now, especially Xiao Zirong intends to mislead the other party, making the other party mistakenly think that he reluctantly agrees to continue business contacts for the sake of Chunsheng and other talents, so that Chunsheng and others can be better protected. human life.

Perhaps after that, they can send someone to send some money to Chunsheng and the others, so that they can live in Wei Guoan safely.

As for coming back... don't think about it for now.

When Xiao Xuexing got the letter, he smiled and said, "Finally, this little bastard will stop making trouble with me."

After he wrote letters to ridicule the other party before, he wrote many letters in a row but all failed. The little bastard wrote to Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ji but refused to write to him.

It was ridiculous, Xiao Xuexing didn't care much at the time, so he continued to write letters to Xiao Zirong so slowly, Xiao Zirong would not reply if he didn't reply, anyway, he would be back soon, and Xiao Xuexing could gather together to settle accounts .

Now that Xiao Zirong wrote him a letter in advance, he was a little disappointed, and he would have no excuse to deal with this little bastard later.

It's just that after reading the letter, he felt a little distressed. Xiao Zirong didn't mention his lack of money in the letter, but said that in order to get more information about the Northern Wei Dynasty, he would continue to communicate with him.

Xiao Xuexing could see that Xiao Zirong didn't hate Yuan Ke, and there was a meaning in every line that he would settle accounts later, but now he wanted to suppress this hatred.

If it was someone else's child, Xiao Xuexing might praise him for being sensible and seeing the big picture, but if it was Xiao Zirong, he could only regret that he didn't go directly to Luoyang because of Xiao Zirong's illness.

Otherwise, why would his brother bear the burden of humiliation?

As for Xiao Zirong's possible lack of money, he didn't even think about it. He didn't know how much money Xiao Xuan gave to Xiao Zirong, but he knew how much money he sent. If Xiao Zirong hadn't said that he was not good at business , he is afraid that he will send all the shops under his name there.

That money is enough even if Xiao Zirong has built a bunch of stalls now, not to mention the gift of housewarming and the money given by Xiao Xuan.

It never occurred to him that Xiao Zirong spent the most on building him a Zhuangzi for his birthday compared to the money currently used to build the industrial zone.

Xiao Zirong didn't dare to let him know, on the one hand to keep it secret and on the other hand he was afraid of Xiao Xuexing's anger.

So he acted particularly aggrieved, as if he was really enduring nausea and interacting with Yuan Ke for the sake of the country's righteousness.

Xiao Xuexing's eyebrows and eyes turned cold, and he wrote back a letter to Xiao Zirong casually: "If you want to deal with it, you can deal with it, if you don't want to deal with it, just ignore it, Xueziying has already started to station troops in Yuzhou."

Xiao Zirong's hands trembled when he received this letter. Xiao Xuexing said before that he would avenge him, and he also believed that Xiao Xuexing would not forget it, but he really couldn't be arrogant about this matter. Now he was actually a little worried that Xiao Xuexing would Will not directly mobilize troops.

As for the five-year agreement, almost no one took it seriously. Aren't contracts like this meant to be broken and violated?

Xiao Zirong had no choice but to write to Xiao Xuexing saying that he wanted to avenge himself, so that Xiao Xuexing should not be too excited.

Then Xiao Xuexing gave him two words: nonsense.

I guess it was because Xiao Zirong was worried that he would go to the Northern Wei Dynasty for revenge, and he directly warned him that if he ran around, his legs would be broken.

When Xiao Zirong saw this, he subconsciously took back his legs, and then found out very sadly that he still had to develop the domestic market first, otherwise Yuanjia would be handed over by Xiao Xuexing at some point. Yes, when the time comes, his money will be cut off.

For the domestic market, the easiest way is to start from Jinling. As for how to start, it is also simple. Xiao Zirong has already installed a generator in the palace, and the glazed lamps have also been connected.

So one day, everyone found that the lights in the palace were brighter than before.

Next is the work of the Privy Council. They need to publicize the fact that the glazed lanterns are used in the palace, and try their best to beautify the glazed lanterns.

Then, find a few ordinary spies from the Privy Council and ask them to hang ordinary glazed lamps in their homes. There will always be curious people who will come to inquire, and there will always be people who will buy them.

Xiao Zirong even set up a membership system for Liuli Workshop. The more you buy, the cheaper it will be. When you accumulate a certain amount of consumption points, you will be given a Liuli Lantern. The more you accumulate, the better.

Xiao Zirong also tried his best to stimulate the consumption of glazed lamps.

It turned out that the common people hadn't opened the market yet, but Chai Shuren and Xie Junsheng wanted to buy it one after another.

After hearing their request, Xiao Zirong couldn't laugh or cry: "Why are you joining in the fun? I did this to open up the market."

He didn't believe that these two people didn't know that the Privy Council was involved. As long as the Privy Council was not confidential, they would communicate with Chai Shuren, and Xie Junsheng...his sister was the biggest leader of the Privy Council.

Chai Shuren explained: "Your Highness misunderstood, I really want to change it for my family, and my father also ordered a few before, but at that time my father was very precious and refused to let others enjoy it. , now it’s a wish.”

Xie Junsheng was very calm: "I used to like it very much, but I couldn't afford it. Now I have a chance."

Xiao Zirong was really dumbfounded, every time he wanted to develop abroad, he would always earn his own money first, what's the matter?

He thought for a while and said, "Forget it, it's almost time to start. I originally planned to give you year-end bonuses. Why don't you just give each of you a gold card from Yuxu Trading Company."

"Yuxu Firm?" Chai Shuren and Xie Junsheng looked at each other, they had never heard of this firm before.

Xiao Zirong said: "Yes, this is the firm I am about to build. It will include various things in the future, glazed products are one of them, and there will be others in the future. Yuxu Liulifang has a separate gold card, but The gold card of the commercial bank is universal, as long as you spend in Yuxu Commercial Bank, you can enjoy half price."

The two of them were immediately shocked. This discount was too great. Although they didn't pay directly, it saved them a lot of money in the future.

One must know that in the industrial area, most of them will belong to His Royal Highness, and this year-end bonus is too arrogant.

The gold cards of Yuxu Commercial Bank were sent over immediately. This batch was originally intended to be used by Xiao Zirong as a gift. Liulifang has high requirements for becoming a gold card user, let alone a gold card user of the head office. .

Xiao Zirong will investigate the consumption level of the whole country, and then set a very high difficulty level. It is impossible for ordinary people to become a gold card user of Yuxu Commercial Bank.

After Chai Shuren and Xie Junsheng got the gold card, they found that the gold card is not big, and the whole should be made of pure gold, with a snowflake outlined in silver on it, but there is a wolf's head in the middle of the snowflake.

As we all know, King Jinling kept a wolf by his side, who was so spoiled like something, so the wolf head was easy to explain.

So who is Snowflake?

Could it be... the Prince Regent?
