Ying Wuji didn't say much, just stretched out a finger and said, "Within a month, I will make a big business worth tens of millions of taels, but this business and all future business will be in cooperation with the royal family of Li! I don't want to be busy in the end, only to have all the peaches picked by the royal family of Li, so I need you to send someone who is important enough to finalize the model of future cooperation!"
"What!"
"Ten million taels!"
“This, this, this, this…”
Everyone was numb, they felt that Ying Wuji had gone crazy.
My dear, do you know what 10 million taels means? Can we stop bragging?
But no one dared to say this out loud, because before this, who could have thought that Ying Wuji could make an annual profit of hundreds of thousands of taels just by opening a bookstore?
Ying Yue was also shocked: "Are you serious?"
In fact, he did not doubt Ying Wuji's words. After all, the business seal was already in his hands, and there was no need for Ying Wuji to bluff him in this regard.
But isn’t it a bit too exaggerated to be a business worth tens of millions of taels?
You must know that the biggest pain of Gan State now is that its finances are strangled by Li State. Gan State is a big agricultural country and does not have to worry about food problems. It can fight a war whenever it wants.
But you need military pay to fight a war, and soldiers need resources to train, right?
In these three aspects, the State of Li seemed to be extremely supportive, but in fact it blocked the way in various ways, causing successive kings of Gan to be extremely anxious. Especially in recent generations, iron smelting had reached military level, but the State of Li had blocked the State of Gan from both the source of iron ore and the iron smelting technology.
The bottom line is that they have no money. If they had money, they could just buy from Qi and Chu.
If this deal is really going to go through, we must send someone who is influential enough to negotiate. Otherwise, if the State of Li takes the advantage, we will have no place to cry.
Ying Yue suddenly felt a little guilty. Although his son was a little too strong and behaved like a king or a father when he got angry, he actually had a good understanding of the overall situation.
On the contrary, it is myself...
"really!"
Ying Wuji nodded.
Ying Yue got a positive answer and was immediately in high spirits: "Okay! Just wait patiently. Within a month, I will definitely send an important figure in Gan Country to assist you in the negotiations."
The key point is "assist".
This old bastard finally showed the right attitude.
Ying Wuji was very satisfied: "In that case, thank you, father!"
Ying Yue couldn't stop smiling. He didn't expect that all the problems that had troubled him before, whether they were family affairs or state affairs, could be solved in just a quarter of an hour.
Under this premise, the sky-high bride price is really not worth mentioning. Even if Ying Wuji wants to marry a hundred Ganzhou women, he has no objection.
Concubine Lin also showed off her family harmony at this time: "Your Majesty! Now you have two sons. At home, you have Wuque, the ancient bloodline, who is determined to make progress, and abroad, you have Wuji, the business genius, who is serving the country. It is really God's blessing. In this way, I will surely prosper!"
Although Ying Wuji's performance and situation made her feel threatened, as long as he did not threaten the position of crown prince, everything would be fine.
Since that’s the case, why not do me a favor? Ying Yue likes this the most anyway.
Ying Yue was really pleased with what he said, and laughed loudly, "Wuji! If you have any other requests, just tell me today. As long as they are not excessive, I, as your father, will satisfy you!"
"Are you serious?"
"Of course I take it seriously!"
"Okay then!"
Ying Wuji's expression suddenly became amused. He turned around and glanced at the crowd. Many people he saw lowered their heads guiltily.
After all, many people here have gone to Shangmo Bookstore to arrest people, and even whipped the clerks inside. If Ying Wuji holds a grudge against them, they will probably suffer a severe punishment today.
Especially Xun Zhiyin, he only felt cold hands and feet. It was not winter yet, but he felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Ying Wuji sneered, "In that case! Father, I'll be frank! These days, I've found some clues about the Gu-killing eucalyptus."
"Hurry up and tell me!"
There was also a flash of murderous intent in Ying Yue's eyes. Although he had chosen to suppress the matter before, that was only for the sake of the overall situation. It did not mean that he was not angry. After all, Ying Wuji was his son. Even if he did not grow up under his wing, he was still his own flesh and blood.
How could he not be angry when his own son was nearly killed?
He also sent people to investigate, but there were undercurrents in the State of Li and the situation was extremely chaotic, so the spies he sent out found nothing.
Ying Wuji smiled sarcastically: "I won't talk about anything else. I just went to the brothel that day and selected a few girls. The list had already been made before I went to the brothel and fell into the hands of the murderer. And the reason why I selected those girls was because I hoped that Lord Xun would introduce them to me!"
"What?"
Ying Yue's eyes suddenly burst into fierce murderous intent.
When Xun Zhiyin heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and cold sweat suddenly seeped out from the pores all over his body.
He was terrified, and fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowing frantically: "Your Majesty! Young Master! I am innocent! I did recommend some girls to you, but I really did not collude with the murderer!"
He was really panicked!
It is true that he is a descendant of Ying Wuque, but if he were to be directly involved in the murder of Ying Wuji, he would not dare to do so even if he had ten times the courage!
The emotion bar was instantly filled up, and several useless skills were revealed.
Ying Wuji sneered: "I haven't even said that Lord Xun was colluding with the murderer, why did Lord Xun admit it himself?"
Ying Yue's expression became increasingly ugly: "Xun Zhiyin, what exactly is going on?"
