The May day is gentle and comfortable. See
Wu Kuo had taken refuge in Yuxi a long time ago, and before Jiang Nan got down, he smuggled salt and tea and horses and other scarce supplies. With Yuxi and Yun Qing as the backing, although it is divided between two and eight, Wu Kuo has also made a lot of money over the years. Later, Jiang Nan was beaten down by Yun Qing, and it was impossible for him to engage in smuggling business. Wu Kuo switched to the business of silk, satin, grain, and porcelain, and his annual profits were also considerable. Now Yuxi suddenly talked about Jiangnan's business, and in his words, he seemed to say that he had greeted a lot of money from it. How could he not make him nervous
Kneeling on the ground, Wu Kuo cried out injustice: "The princess, the ministers can learn from the loyalty of the prince and the princess. It must be the villain who slanders the ministers. If the princess does not believe it, you can send someone to investigate it." , As if Yuxi didn't believe that he was going to die.
Yuxi chuckled and said, "Master Wu, I'm just talking casually, you don't have to take it seriously."
If Yun Qing said this, Wu Kuo would still believe it. He couldn't believe what Yuxi said. Such a deep-minded person, how could he casually mention Jiangnan matters to him.
When Wu Kuo got up, Yuxi said again: "Jin Yu came to see me today and said that he would be a parent. You should know about this, right?"
Wu Kuo bowed his waist and said, "It's his blessing that the great princess can see the dog. Before this kid was not open, now he can figure out me and I'm very happy."
Yuxi chuckled and said, "I have four brothers, Ah Hao and A Rui, with the prince. Why do I need to hire any son-in-law? These are all Zaozao's mischief, you don't need to take it seriously."
Wu Kuo shook his heart. He couldn't figure out the meaning of Yuxi's words. He could only bite the bullet and said: "The second master is brilliant, and the two young masters are also among the dragons and phoenixes."
Yuxi smiled, and said, "Jin Yu's child is pure-tempered, and my girl is also innocent. In this respect, the two children are quite alike."
Wu Kuo hurriedly said, "My youngest son is not only serving flowers and plants, but also Wen Chengwu. How can he be like a big princess, he is already a fifth-rank thousands of adults at a young age." He is just a fifth-rank now. As for the doctor, he is still a false job, and he doesn't hold real power like a date.
Speaking of Zaozao, Yuxi said more at once: "This child's ambition is to become a female general. He has been working hard for this ambition since he was three years old. Even if he is locked in the yard these days, his martial arts are not falling. , I have to practice for two or three hours a day." After that, Yuxi sighed deliberately: "It's a pity that she cast the wrong baby. If it were a man, she would definitely realize her ambition."
Wu Kuo respectfully said: "The great princess has this kind of perseverance, and the Weichen believes that even if she is a daughter, she can also realize her dream." If it is an ordinary woman, this ambition cannot be realized. But who made the great princess reincarnate? With parents like the prince and the princess, it is not too difficult for her to become a female general.
Yuxi glanced at Wu Kuo, with the signature smile on her face: "It's not easy for a woman to survive in this world, and it's even more difficult for a woman to make a contribution, so I also hope she can get what she wants."
Wu Kuo said affirmatively, "It will definitely be."
At this moment, Xu Wu raised his voice outside the living room and said: "Wang Hao, Wang Ye has a letter delivered..."
This conversation will end here.
Since Yun Qing left Hao City, he generally kept a letter at a rate of three days. If something happens, one letter a day. The content of the letter included official business, some local folk customs and anecdotes. This change was also influenced by Mr. Pang. This time, Yun Qing mainly talked about the situation on the Xihai side in the letter. At the end of the letter, he said that he would be back in a few days.
After reading the letter, Yuxi said with a smile: "It was just right to come back." Zaozao's marriage is considered a major event, and it would be a pity if Yun Qing, the father of Yun Qing, was not there.
When Wu Kuo returned home, he immediately summoned his staff to discuss the meaning of what Yuxi said to him.
An aide Zhang said: "Master, the princess meant that she could marry the second young master, but she wanted the Wu family to provide financial support."
After a pause, Zhang's aides said again: "Master, in the past few years of fighting, I heard that the official treasury and the private treasury are empty, and millions of troops are supported by a few silver mines. Master, if you want to welcome it. The big princess, I'm afraid it will be bleeding." To marry the big princess, not to mention the emptying of the family, at least half of it will be handed in.
You don’t need to talk about this, but Wu Kuo himself can think: "The princess told me that the grand princess's ambition is to become a female general, and she has been working hard for it. Why do you mean she said these things to me specifically?" In fact, Wu Kuo had thoughts in his mind, but he was not sure.
The staff member Zhang thought for a while and said: "The grand princess married the second young master. If she really becomes a female general, she will definitely have a title in the future." If the grand princess marries the second young master, her future title will naturally be passed on to her. Sons and daughters, in the end, they belong to the Wu family.
Having said that, Zhang's staff looked at Wu Kuo and did not say any more, the princess was just drawing a piece of cake for the master.
Wu Kuo frowned and said, "The sword has no eyes on the battlefield..." Princess Wanda made a mistake on the battlefield. Then he handed over all his family property. Wouldn't it be a waste of the bamboo basket? But the problem now is that since the princess has revealed this, she won't give him any more room for rejection.
An aide Zhang said: "Don't worry too much about this. The big princess is the daughter of the prince and the princess, and he will not charge into battle. There should be no life-threatening danger." There is no guarantee.
Wu Kuo gave a wry smile, and let Zhang's staff go down. He stayed in the house for most of the day. He was not considering whether to agree to Yuxi's request, but trying to explain himself.
In the afternoon, Wu Kuo went back to the backyard to look for the Fang family, and said: "The princess meant to let the princess marry Jinyu."
Fang's heart has been hanging since Wu Kuo went out, and when Wu Kuo came back, she would not be able to come back in the front yard, which made her more uneasy. A smile appeared on her face when she heard the news, but she soon realized that something was wrong: "Why did the princess change her mind? Is there any reason?"
Wu Kuo glanced at the Fang family, and said in a low voice: "The condition for the big princess to marry is the Wu family's wealth." Naturally, what Yuxi wants is not Wu's business, but Wu Kuo's wealth. As for how many family assets Wu Kuo holds in his hands, Yuxi knows roughly.
Fang said with some surprise: "You want the Wu family's wealth? The property was taken away by Wu Qian when we separated. We were also allocated to those shops, and we didn't get much money. Eight of the money we made in these years was eight. Chengdu has entered the princess's private treasury, how many princesses we have kept?"
Fang's heart burst after saying this. Although she doesn't deal with Yuxi much, she also knows that Yuxi is definitely not the person with shallow eyelids. If only one hundred and eight hundred thousand taels of silver is not worth her mouth, . Thinking of this, Fang's face turned pale: "Master, are you hiding something from me?"
Wu Kuo’s eyes were very complicated, and it took a while before he said: “Daddy would save a sum of money every year when he was alive.” Wu Meng was a very worry-conscious person. The main reason for saving money back then was that he was afraid that his descendants would appear unconvincing. , So I want to leave a sum of money, so that if the offspring reappear and have the ability to make a comeback, they also have capital.
In the beginning, Wu Meng had a deposit of 30,000 to 50,000. Later, the Wu family was dominated by a lot of profitable industries. The annual payment was tens of millions of dollars, and the three to five million dollars were set aside. But Wu Meng has been the richest man in Jiangnan for more than 20 years, and he has accumulated a huge sum of money that even Yuxi knew.
Fang's whole person was stupid, and asked: "Master, the previous rumors are true?" There was a rumor that Wu Meng hid a huge sum of money, but Wu Qian took the family business following Wu Meng's violent death. Then Wu Kuo stayed away from Jiangnan, and the rumors of this huge sum of money disappeared.
Wu Kuo nodded and said, "It's true. After knowing that his second brother was under the control of Yu's family, Dad told me about it." After a pause, Wu Kuo said, "Although Wu Qian has taken the home But Dad drew most of the funds away when he noticed something was wrong. Wu Qian didn't get much money." Only he and a few loyal servants knew where the money was stored.
Fang's lips squirmed for several times before asking in a very small voice: "About how much silver?" There was a slight tremor in that voice.
Wu Kuo looked at Fang Shi and said, "Nearly ten million."
Hearing this number, Fang Shi, who had become accustomed to wealth, couldn't help taking a breath. Tens of millions of silver, no wonder the princess will be moved.
After a long time, the Fang family spoke: "How did the princess know about such a secret thing? Is she cheating you?" As the person next to Wu Kuo's pillow, she didn't know, no matter how powerful the princess was, it was impossible to find this. thing. If it was one or two million taels of silver, he would give it up, but if the nearly tens of millions of silver was handed over, Fang's heart aches when he thinks about it.
Fang also didn't want to think, if there were only one or two million, it would be worthy of Yuxi's mouth.
Wu Kuo said: "The princess said that the ambition of the great princess is to become a female general. This is equivalent to saying that when she and King Ming win the world, the great princess will receive a knighthood. The great princess will marry the Wu family, and this knight will become the Wu family. That's it."
Fang shook his head and said, "That's what I said, but this is more than ten years later. No one can guarantee the future, unless the princess can give us a guarantee."
Wu Kuo felt that Fang's brain was confused: "Guaranteed? How could the princess give a guarantee for this kind of thing." If he could give a guarantee, he wouldn't say it so implicitly.
When Fang heard this, it was as if a basin of ice water was poured down, and she immediately calmed down: "So, there is no room for reversal?"
Wu Kuo said: "Since the princess has spoken, there is no room for turning back." After speaking, Wu Kuo looked at Fang and said, "This is also a big gamble. If you win the Wu family, you can become the home of the powerful. "As for losing the gambling, his father's hard work was also wasted.
Thinking that the mountain-like silver slipped out of her hands like this, Fang felt heartbroken.
Wu Kuo told the Fang family about this matter for a purpose: "The big princess is the hope of our Wu family's change of family. You usually say to Jinyu that the big princess is good, let them be married, and wait for them to get married and have an early birth. Lay an heir." As long as a child is born, even if the great princess has a chance on the battlefield, King Ming and Concubine Ming will not treat the child lightly.
Fang's whispered: "I see."
Wu Kuo thought for a while and said, "When Jinyu gets married, I will convert the property he deserves into a farm shop and cash it to him. As for the business at home, I will leave it to Jinbo to take care of it in the future."
Where did Fang dare to object, he nodded and agreed: "Okay." If it hadn't been for her to stop Jin Yu from entering her inheritance, maybe it wouldn't happen now.
This is also Fang's own guilty conscience, in fact Wu Kuo did not blame her. Because he knew very well that since Yuxi knew about the existence of this huge sum of money, it was impossible to let it go. Being able to marry the big princess now can be regarded as a compensation to the Wu family.
To say that Wu Kuo really thinks too much, but also to see that Zaozao and Wu Jinyu are in love with each other, and Yuxi will let Zaozao marry Wu's family. Otherwise, let alone nearly tens of millions, she would not marry her daughter no matter how much money.
Wu Kuo is also a courageous person, otherwise he would not have taken refuge in Yun Qing and Yuxi when they were weak. Now that he made up his mind, he didn't delay, and after thinking about it for a day, he gave Yuxi a reply.
Yuxi was satisfied with Wu Kuo's current affairs: "Don't worry about this, and wait until the prince comes back."
After Wu Kuo was sent away, Yuxi wrote a letter to Yu Zhi, saying: "You personally hand this letter to the eldest brother." This huge sum of money is of great importance and there must be no mistakes.
Yu Zhi didn't say much, just nodded and said, "Okay."
Rao is now Yuxi, who has cultivated to the end of the Taishan Mountain collapse and has not changed his face. He is in a very good mood to receive such a sum of money, and smiles all day long.
Grandma smiled and asked, "Why is the princess so happy?" It is rare to see Yuxi so happy.
As long as it is not a secret matter, Yuxi will not hide from Mother Quan: "The military expenditures for attacking the Northern Captives have been reduced." She has been fighting for these years, if it weren't for her to worry about increasing income and reducing expenditure, plus Yun Qing always fights. The spoils of victory filled the vacancies, and they were overwhelmed long ago. That's the case, now there are only mice left in the official treasury and the private treasury.
The grandmother was very measured. She didn't ask where the money came from, nor did she ask the specific numbers, but just smiled and said, "It turns out to be rich. No wonder it's so happy."
Yuxi did not conceal her joy, and said: "It has always been the wish of the prince to attack the North Captive, and I have solved the worry of the prince." In order to raise military expenses these years, she has been racking her brains. All the methods are used. With this money, she can relax for a while.
Mother Quan smiled and said, "It must be okay." Yun Qing fought fiercely, which is a well-known thing. As long as the army's salary, food and grass are prepared, and Yun Qing personally leads the troops, no matter how strong the North Captive is, it will be able to win. It has to be said that Yun Qing's reputation for always winning the generals has been thoroughly established.
