"Suppress the bandits?" This was not a big deal. Although they did not dare to fight the Hu people, they still dared to suppress the bandits.
Fang Zhiyi nodded: "When you suppress the bandits, send a letter to Wei Kaiyuan. I'm sure he will receive it soon."
The emperor nodded sullenly, there was no other way.
When the court was dismissed, Fang Zhiyi deliberately dawdled, his mood not very good. The emperor looked at him and curled his lips: "Go ahead."
Fang Zhiyi chuckled.
"Your Majesty, can I find someone to raise funds for the bandit suppression? After all, banditry affects everyone's lives."
The emperor frowned and asked, "How much money does it cost to suppress a bandit?"
"There are a lot! From here to Beiliang, there are many mountains and hills along the way, and there are many bandits." Fang Zhiyi said, reaching out to pull out a roll of paper from his sleeve and slowly unfolding it.
The emperor looked over and saw an exquisite pavilion jumping out of the paper.
"this..."
"As for the funds for suppressing bandits, the more the better." Fang Zhiyi said with a smile.
The emperor understood immediately and nodded repeatedly, "Very good, Lord Fang is indeed a man of great talent! I approve! I will give you a gold medal. Use it to raise funds to suppress the bandits!"
Watching Fang Zhiyi leave, the emperor nodded. It was still the same Fang Zhiyi who knew how to make him happy.
The thought of being able to watch the moon with his beloved in his arms in that exquisite pavilion made him feel much better.
"Prime Minister, who can we ask to raise funds?" asked Fang Zhiyi's confidant Abao.
"Who do you want to find? Whoever has money can find him!" Fang Zhiyi said carelessly, "I don't have any money, so why should I find those princes and ministers?"
Abao nodded repeatedly, saying that the master was getting better and better at making money.
As soon as Shen Xun arrived home, he saw Fang Zhiyi standing at his door waiting, and hurried forward: "Prime Minister Fang."
Fang Zhiyi glanced at him and said, "I'm here to see my son."
"Please, please!" Chen Xun hurriedly opened the door. As soon as the two entered the room, Fang Zhiyi just glanced at Fang Bufan who was sweeping the floor and then looked away.
"Master Shen, do you know that I proposed the bandit suppression issue today?"
Shen Xun nodded. He didn't think there was anything wrong. It was the right thing to do to suppress the bandits.
"I would like to ask Mr. Shen to lead the team. How do you think it would work?"
"Ah? Me?" Shen Xun pointed at himself.
Fang Zhiyi smiled and leaned close to his ear. After a few whispers, Shen Xun's eyes widened, with a bit of fear and excitement.
"Prime Minister, this matter..."
"I trust Lord Shen's character, no one else can do it." Actually, that's not the case. The main reason is that the other people's character is bad, and those with good character have basically been squeezed out. When I see him, I know that if you don't spit at him, you are considered a good person.
"I will definitely try my best!" Chen Xun stood up and saluted solemnly.
"What are you looking at? You're the one who's leading the charge!" Fang Zhiyi scolded him, glancing at Fang Bufan from time to time. "Master Shen, I have another matter to trouble you with."
The imperial capital was in chaos again. Fang Zhiyi went door to door with a gold medal. As long as they were officials of the previous dynasty, or there were officials in their families, he would push the door open and walk in. After entering, he would not say a word. He would hold up the gold medal in his left hand and spread out his left hand. His meaning was very clear: give me money!
All the civil and military officials in the court cursed him in their hearts, but they still had to smile on their faces.
The trip was fruitful. Fang Zhiyi had never expected that a country that had been beaten so badly could be so rich.
He immediately wrote a letter asking Shen Xun to lead the team to suppress the bandits and take his son with him.
The emperor's eyes curved with laughter as he took the banknotes sent by Fang Zhiyi: "This Fang Zhiyi, who beat his son before, now wants to gild his son. Okay, okay!"
So Shen Xun selected some soldiers and set off.
