Zhao Kang chuckled and threw away the duck bones in his hand: "Boss Xiao, although you say you are a businessman, but you can take a hundred thousand taels as soon as you ask for it, so you must have been a man who had no worries about food and clothing since you were a child."
Zhao Kangdao: "Take the time when I first took over Yuanjiang County for example! At that time, there was a war, and there were droughts and floods. Due to natural and man-made disasters, troops were being recruited everywhere, and all food had to be kept close to the army."
"The fields are harvestless and the war is raging outside. The people in Yuanjiang County were starving to death. Less than 2,000 people were left to flee. The bark of the trees in the surrounding mountains has been eaten up, leaving little food for them.
How can they have the heart to object when people are starving to death without enough food to eat?”
"Besides, developing Yuanjiang County into what it is today can't just be done by reclaiming land and distributing it uniformly. This involves the second point, trade!"
Zhao Kang sighed: "Now that I think back to those days, I feel really sad. I want to lead these guys to beg for food."
There were many people in Fengyue Tower, and Zhao Kang and Xiao Linglong also attracted their attention early.
One person joked: "Let me tell you, Mr. Zhao must have brought people to beg for food, otherwise the food he brought back would smell sour! You still don't believe it!"
"Go to hell with your father-in-law. You are so picky about what you eat. Believe it or not, I will let you go to jail tomorrow!"
Zhao Kang blushed with anger, but the person who spoke was not afraid at all. He dodged the bones thrown by Zhao Kang and smiled.
Their two thousand original residents of Yuanjiang County had a life-long friendship with Zhao Kang.
Acting as a mountain bandit to kidnap passing merchants, Zhao Kang then rescues people as a government official to make money. The cooperation between each other is perfect.
Seeing Zhao Kang scolding everyone, Xiao Linglong couldn't help but feel a little funny.
This guy is too unscrupulous in his words and deeds!
"Ahem, boss Xiao is laughing at the unruly people in the remote mountain villages."
After scolding Zhao Kang, he turned around and looked at Xiao Linglong with some embarrassment. Those bastards actually let themselves lose their composure in front of this beauty. They really deserve to be killed!
The restaurant was a bit messy and there were more and more people, so Xiao Linglong lost interest in continuing the conversation.
A lot has been gained tonight!
She then stood up and said goodbye to Zhao Kang.
Zhao Kang didn't try to persuade her to stay. Although Xiao Linglong was beautiful, he had some messy thoughts in his heart.
But a real man is born in heaven and earth! How can he... Oh no, I don’t want to rebel!
Now I just want to make money! I have no intention of any bullshit romance!
Right, that is it!
After some self-evaluation, Zhao Kang continued to eat happily until his mouth was full of oil. He was stunned that he had eaten so much that there was no trace of the meaty meat left!
That’s the good thing about Yuanjiang County people, they never waste anything!
It's just because of the hardship on Her Majesty the Empress Xiao Linglong that she only has five taels of scattered silver left on her body.
A trip to Yuanjiang County can be considered a disaster!
Fortunately, Mr. Lin, who is an expert in the field, did not keep His Majesty the Emperor waiting for too long. He quickly went back and forth in less than three days.
Lu Yuan paid the bill and the three of them went to the agreed place.
When Zhao Kang saw the three of them, he immediately became energetic and stood up to greet them: "Boss Xiao is here!"
"Master Zhao, the money has been brought, are the tea ready?" Xiao Linglong sat down.
She picked up the tea that Zhao Kang poured for her and took a sip. The tea from Yuanjiang County tasted really good. The tea was so delicious even without the addition of ginger, garlic, salt, and sugar.
"The tea has been prepared a long time ago."
Zhao Kang smiled and took out a contract from his sleeve, "But before the transaction, you have to sign a contract with Boss Xiao."
Xiao Linglong took it over and looked at it and asked doubtfully: "All information about Yuanjiang County must not be leaked to the outside world?"
Zhao Kang nodded and said: "That's right, Boss Xiao, don't be surprised. I'm doing this for your own good. Although our Yuanjiang County is small, it has rich specialties and is popular among people. If Boss Xiao leaks out, why won't the other party find them all? I'll snatch them from you then.
Business is so bad, right?"
Mr. Lin's face twitched, he really knows how to boast!
Xiao Linglong pointed to the contract: "Then if the secret in this contract is leaked, you will be struck by five thunders from the sky, and your whole body will bleed with pus and sores! Is it for our good that men become slaves and women become prostitutes?"
"Ahem...Isn't this to increase the binding force of this contract?"
Zhao Kang smiled awkwardly.
Lu Yuan muttered: "Once the buyer violates the regulations, Yuanjiang County will have the right to terminate all ongoing or future cooperation... All interpretation rights belong to the Yuanjiang County Government. What does this mean?"
"Literally." Zhao Kang smiled shamelessly.
Green Yuan: "..."
Xiao Linglong's eyes were strange. No wonder this Yuanjiang County has disappeared for so many years. There is a way to protect feelings, right?
Xiao Linglong understood, then signed and stamped her name, looking at Zhao Kang with a playful smile.
After the conversation that night, Xiao Linglong was no longer ready to kill the misbehaving dog official in front of her. Although he was a bit evil, as long as he was used properly, he might become a minister who could help the world.
All interpretation rights belong to you?
I want to see if you can still be so calm in the future!
This girl’s smile is so scary!
Zhao Kang looked at Xiao Linglong, who was smiling but not smiling, and felt something was wrong. However, when he saw Mr. Lin taking out a stack of banknotes under the instructions of the other party, his eyes immediately lit up!
Everything is fake, only money is real!
"Well, congratulations to Mr. Zhao for making another hundred thousand taels." Xiao Linglong smiled.
"Happy cooperation, happy cooperation. What Boss Xiao said is all for the sake of the Tea Fairy and his family, who want everyone to have tea!"
Zhao Kang said angrily.
Xiao Linglong was a little dumbfounded, "Master Zhao took us to get tea. We have been out for a long time, so I have to go back quickly."
"We are already ready, Zhang Long will lead the way!"
"Okay sir!"
There were huge warehouses one after another in Yuanjiang Hou County, with people constantly coming in and out, which dazzled Xiao Linglong and the other two people.
In front of a warehouse, two carriages were parked, each with two large wooden boxes.
Zhao Kang smiled and said: "There are five hundred tea bricks in four boxes. Would you like some, Boss Xiao?"
"No need, I can trust Mr. Zhao." Xiao Linglong said calmly.
Zhao Kang nodded: "The two carriages will be given to Boss Xiao. If there is another opportunity for cooperation in the future, Boss Xiao only needs to take the emblem on the carriage. Even if I am not here, someone will entertain you."
Green Yuan looked around at one warehouse after another and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Mr. Zhao, what are these warehouses for?"
Zhao Kang smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, this is a business secret and I can't comment."
Without these warehouses, how could Yuanjiang County be so prosperous and prosperous?
Brewing, sugar making, porcelain making, cement, soap, fried tea, etc. are all available!
Not getting the answer, Xiao Linglong and the others were a little depressed, but they could only leave with the tea leaves.
As Xiao Linglong said, she had to leave the palace for a long time this time and had to go back quickly.
But no one could have imagined that His Majesty the Emperor would leave the palace empty-handed, and return with five hundred kilograms of tea!
