If the Tang Empire won, it would say to its opponents: "You damn well behave yourself in the future, or be careful that I wipe out your entire clan. Pay tribute obediently every year!"
<...Han Chenchen looked at Yuan Ziyan, who was still defiant, and laughed, "What? You want to fight me? Come on! Get out! This place is too small!"
"A gentleman uses words, not fists! This is truly an insult to civility!"
"You spineless coward, all you do is yell here. If you've got guts, come out and fight me one-on-one!"
Zhao Huan's face twitched slightly. He had been here for more than half a year, how come he hadn't noticed that his Consort Han was so... fierce?
She's not like this usually in the palace; she just lets loose after she leaves.
Han Lixian is a businessman, and the Han family is a prestigious family. How did they raise him like this?
Even Xie Dahai, whose expression was always cold, was somewhat taken aback.
Being publicly humiliated by a woman made Yuan Ziyan feel utterly ashamed.
Just then, Manager Liang greeted Wang Qi.
Wang Qi, as the founder of the Young Entrepreneurs Association, was followed by a bunch of lackeys, all of whom were rich second-generation heirs from Tokyo.
However, these kinds of rich kids are of a lower caliber. They idolize Tang Ke's son, Tang Rui, and dream of befriending the son of the Vice Minister of State Affairs.
The Wang family was currying favor with Situ Su, who was an assistant minister in the Ministry of Rites, a sixth-rank official.
Think about it, the Vice Chancellor is a high-ranking official of the second rank, equivalent to a deputy prime minister.
It's obvious what level the Wang family is at.
However, it must be said that merchants were more free in the Song Dynasty than in other dynasties.
But they were, after all, merchants without titles. The court's patronage of merchants wasn't out of genuine respect for commerce, but rather because they were poor and needed money!
So, if another boatload of these people came, they'd all be trash.
The reason Zhao Huan patiently played with them here was to see who was causing trouble at this crucial moment in the implementation of the paper money!
When we go back, those people in the Council of State Affairs will all get scolded.
The matter has been handled so poorly that not a single person has come to report to me or come up with a solution. This prime minister is utterly incompetent!
As soon as Wang Qi came down, he led his men toward Zhao Huan.
The Wang family is currently at a crucial stage in its rise in the capital city of Tokyo. By attaching themselves to the position of Assistant Minister of Works, they can use this connection to curry favor with other ministers.
Anyway, the Wang family isn't short of money right now, so they keep giving gifts, and that's how they build their network.
