Facts have proved that Qi Wangjian still stayed in this side hall after Gu Xun left, not just because he was sad for the spring and autumn, but because he had other things.
He didn't wait for a long time before someone came into the hall, walked up to him, bowed and bowed politely.
The visitor is none other than Tian Dan, the royal family of King Qi.
Hou Sheng has become more and more indifferent these days. As the prime minister, he has nothing to do with the affairs of the government, unless he can make money. But the problem is that once he makes money, it is better not to do anything.
For the sake of the queen, Qi Wangjian didn't want to deal with his uncle openly, so he had to deal with the more important political affairs as much as possible by himself. However, after all, the king cannot be the executor. Of course, Tian Dan, who lives a busy life, has little to do.
So he captured the young man and secretly worked for him.
In fact, it's not too dark. After all, we are doing serious business, and the main thing is to hide it from Hou Sheng, a fool who only thinks about gold coins.
In fact, Qi Wangjian did not want to use Tiandan, who was in a deep city. Although he was a member of the clan, it was this kind of talent that needed to be guarded against. Letting him gain power was not what Qi Wangjian wanted to see.
But!
Just like when he asked Tian Dan to manage the Iron-Blooded Alliance before, isn't this a choice...
Qi Wangjian also had to pay more attention to his clan brother who was probably in the fifth server.
Today, King Qi Jian specially arranged for Tian Dan to come over after he met Gu Xun. The original intention was to make some arrangements based on Gu Xun's attitude, including some benefits that might need to be given, and ways to keep an eye on Hou Sheng.
Things.
As a result, now that the matter was over, Qi Wangjian found that Gu Xun's attitude was more... gentle than he thought. This way, Hou Sheng's side would be much safer and there would be no need to worry too much, but there was still one more business to deal with.
Things are not reduced.
"Your Majesty." After the salute, Tian Dan stood up straight, looked directly at Qi Wangjian, and said in a respectful voice.
Qi Wangjian nodded coldly and pointed to the opposite side, "Sit down first."
Tian Dan sat down in Gu Xun's previous position very obediently. His back was straight and he sat upright. No matter what plans he had in mind or how much power he had in his hands, he always did a good job in surface engineering.
No one can find fault.
This time there was no need for Qi Wangjian to make tea himself. Tian Dan took over the task with great foresight and poured Qi Wangjian a cup of hot tea.
However, Qi Wangjian had already drank a lot before, and now he had no intention of drinking anymore. He just held the tea cup and absorbed the warmth coming from the cup wall.
"There is something you need to do immediately."
"Your Majesty, please give me your orders." Tian Dan responded with his head slightly lowered.
"Find a few craftsmen who are proficient in making salt, and then take them to see Gu Xun."
"?" Tian Dan couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly, looking at his king, Gu Xun and the salt-making craftsman with doubts... Why are these two related?
Could it be that...Qin wanted to get the technology of boiling salt? But Qin didn’t have a sea, so what’s the use of this thing?
Qi Wangjian saw Tian Dan's doubts, but had no intention of explaining. He just continued to give instructions, "After I am brought here, you will help me. You will obey Gu Xun's instructions and meet all his requirements."
Tian Dan, who didn't know what was going on, had to suppress the doubts in his heart and respectfully accepted the order, "I obey."
"Remember, this matter is very important. Do it as secretly as possible. Even if you can't guarantee that no one will know your actions, at least you must make sure that they have no way of knowing what you did."
"Yes, I understand. Your Majesty, please rest assured."
Qi Wangjian didn't pay too much attention to this. He still believed in Tian Dan's ability, so this little thing wouldn't go wrong.
After talking about the craftsmen, we have to raise money. If we just take the money from the treasury, it’s not that Qi Wangjian can’t get 200,000 gold, but in the next few months, the court will not be able to do anything.
Can't spare a penny.
Fortunately, there are other money bags.
"One more thing, how much cash can you draw from the Iron Blood Alliance's treasury now?"
Why did you get money again?
Tian Dan, who had never felt that Qi Guoguo was short of money, couldn't help but feel doubts again, but he answered quickly, "Back to the king, at this time, I can only withdraw 80,000 gold at most."<
/p>
This is basically 70% of the cash on the books of the Iron Blood Alliance. After all, the six royal families of this organization are apparently involved. Tian Dan can only take out this while hiding himself as much as possible.
Qi Wangjian also knew the situation and had no intention of embarrassing Tian Dan. Eighty thousand is eighty thousand, which is enough.
"Very good, then transport the money to Linzi as soon as possible."
Probably because he was worried that the time would be delayed, Qi Wangjian emphasized again in the end, "It must be shipped as quickly as possible!"
"I obey!" Tian Dan, who was confused, could only answer with doubts.
………………
On the other side, after Gu Xun left the side hall, he left the palace with Chen He who had been waiting outside.
The business was concluded and Gu Xun, who was about to receive a large sum of money, was very happy and took Chen He to a restaurant for dinner.
The land of Qilu is deeply influenced by Confucian culture, which is reflected in all aspects of life, and food is one of them. As the saying goes, you can never tire of fine food and fine food. The dishes of Qilu often look very delicate and high-end.
Of course, the taste is not bad, but the ingredients are rarer and the cooking process is more delicate.
Gu Xun doesn't care about the differences in cuisines. Anyway, restaurants he is not familiar with all order the same dishes, which are expensive!
Gu Xun ordered the twelve most expensive dishes under the gaze of the restaurant waiter looking at the wealthy man. Chen He, who had long been accustomed to Gu Xun's extravagance and waste, watched the whole process expressionlessly.
While waiting for the food to be served, Chen He finally spoke:
"Looking at the look on your face, you should have gained something from this meeting with the king."
"Of course, I'm very satisfied." Gu Xun nodded matter-of-factly, "It's just a pity that I didn't ask even a little bit about Canglong Qisu."
"Canglong Qisu..." After many days, Chen He heard this name again and couldn't help but murmured.
Seeing him like this, Gu Xun asked casually, "Why, what do you know?"
Chen He shook his head, "I don't know."
"During this period, I tried to investigate the affairs of Canglong Qisu in my spare time, but... I could not find any written records or relevant clues."
Gu Xun raised his eyebrows and did not rush to express his opinion. Instead, he asked with great interest, "Do you think this is because the information about Canglong Qisu is hidden too deeply within Qi State, or because Qi State is now
Is it true that there are no relevant records?”
Chen He shook his head like a teacher, "I don't know."
How could he know this!
He had only scratched the surface of Canglong Qisu from Gu Xun's words. He had no idea what it had to do with Qi State and couldn't even guess.
