Raising another two million taels was easier said than done. Su Wenqing's money was all spent on food and business, and it was impossible to exchange it for cash for a while.
"How do you plan to raise funds?" Lan Jiuqing asked.
"Sell the shop in a remote place and lower the price. It should be easy to sell it." Su Wenqing sighed.
Although this method of killing the goose to retrieve the eggs was unwise, he had no choice now. He had spent too much money on it during the snowstorm.
When Lan Jiuqing heard this, he immediately refused: "Those shops can't sell much money, and they can't be cashed out in a short time. Don't worry about the money, leave it to me."
"You? Where are you going to raise money?" Jiu Qing's money is all under his control. Su Wenqing doesn't think Jiu Qing has any private money, nor does he think he has so much private money...
Lan Jiuqing really doesn't have that much silver anymore, but there must be one somewhere.
Under Su Wenqing's expectation, Lan Jiuqing spit out two words: "Hubu."
"What? You want to transfer money from the Ministry of Finance?" Su Wenqing was startled: "If it is found out, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will be in trouble."
"Don't worry, I have my own plan." A flash of light flashed in Lan Jiuqing's eyes, but unfortunately it was blocked by the mask, otherwise Su Wenqing would have to mourn for some people after seeing it.
Su Wenqing never doubted Lan Jiuqing's words. When Lan Jiuqing said he was sure, Su Wenqing would not ask any more questions. Now that the silver matter was settled, Su Wenqing became lighter and more interested in talking about other things.
"Jiu Qing, the Black Cavalry has been stationed in the Imperial Mausoleum for a long time and knows the internal structure of the Imperial Mausoleum very well. When will they take action?" The Black Cavalry made its first appearance in Jiuzhou Continent. Both Su Wenqing and Lan Jiuqing paid great attention to it.
Lan Jiuqing thought for a moment and then said: "Five days later, proceed as originally planned, leaving no one alive, and then go straight to the imperial city."
"Okay, I will pass on the order." Su Wenqing nodded heavily. Although he didn't understand why Jiu Qing wanted the black knight to come to the imperial city, he would never question Jiu Qing's order.
"When we get to the Imperial City, arrange for them to enter the city." Lan Jiuqing said again. This time Su Wenqing did not directly agree, but made a request: "I need help."
As a businessman, he could not arrange for a thousand people to enter the imperial city without knowing it.
Lan Jiuqing nodded, indicating that someone would support him then.
After talking about these two important things, Lan Jiuqing asked about another person who gave him a huge headache.
"Where is Bu Jingyun? Is there any news about him?"
Bu Jingyun disappeared again, and he did it perfectly. If Su Wenqing hadn't temporarily transferred money from the No. 1 Village in the World, neither Lan Jiuqing nor Su Wenqing would have known that this guy would have disappeared after he left Xuanxiao Palace.
When I returned to No. 1 Village in the World, the news that usually came from him was all done by his deputy.
I'm surprised, my brother can't help you.
Su Wenqing knew that Lan Jiuqing was angry, so he didn't dare to hide it and immediately told Bu Jingyun's whereabouts.
Without any surprise, Bu Jingyun was in Liancheng, looking for Qin Baobao.
"Can't he be a bit promising?" Lan Jiuqing's whole body was exuding an icy cold air, which made Su Wenqing shiver from the cold.
Su Wenqing smiled bitterly and did not dare to speak...
When Jiu Qing talked about Jingyun, why didn't he think about himself? The way he had been fighting with the emperor recently didn't look like he was promising.
Lan Jiuqing also knew what Su Wenqing was thinking. Thinking of what he had done recently and what he was going to do next, Lan Jiuqing's tone finally returned to its normal temperature.
"Tell Bu Jingyun that this is the last time. If you do it again, I will have someone stop Qin Baobao's medicine."
Lan Jiuqing always knew what to do to make Bu Jingyun obedient. Su Wenqing wiped his sweat and nodded quickly, saying that he would pass on the words. As for what Bu Jingyun did, that was none of his business.
"Where is Bu Fan? How did you find out what happened in Beiling?" Lan Jiuqing didn't know what happened today, so he asked about the early events, which scared Su Wenqing's little heart.
"Bu Fan found traces of people on the snow peak of Beiling. Bu Fan suspected that those people were descendants of the previous dynasty. In order to confirm the news, he took a risk. As a result, all the people he brought were lost on the snow peak of Beiling.
He was also slightly injured and is currently recuperating under the snowy peak. We need to send people to support him." Su Wenqing was extremely lucky. Even if Jiu Qing didn't ask, he was paying attention to these things. Otherwise, if Jiu Qing asked, he wouldn't be able to answer.
Crap.
"A member of the former dynasty?" A coldness flashed in Lan Jiuqing's eyes and he asked, "Did you eat the Wang family's smuggling route to Beiling?"
"No problem, you can move at any time." Su Wenqing understood very well what Lan Jiuqing wanted this route to do, and it would come in handy now.
"Very good, please arrange for someone to transport a batch of supplies as soon as possible. I believe the people in Beiling will need it." Lan Jiuqing was preparing to provide assistance to Bu Fan and let Bu Fan explore the news about Beiling.
The descendants of the previous dynasty, these four words are worth the risk for Lan Jiuqing.
"I understand." Su Wenqing said it clearly. Lan Jiuqing didn't need to say more about how to do it. He would do it one by one.
Lan Jiuqing has already given orders for major matters, but Lan Jiuqing will not be involved in minor matters at all. Su Wenqing and his staff will handle all the matters. This is a sign of trust in Su Wenqing and also reduces his workload.
At midnight, Lan Jiuqing left the Su family's secret room. He wanted to go to Feng Mansion to see Feng Qingchen, but after thinking about it for a while, Lan Jiuqing flew towards the palace.
There was no clue about the fire in the animal garden, so Lan Jiuqing wanted to try and explore the forbidden palace at night to see if he could make a breakthrough.
No one is more familiar with the layout of the palace than Lan Jiuqing. Lan Jiuqing first went to the emperor's bedroom. When he found that the emperor was not there, he went to the royal study.
Even if Lan Jiuqing believed that the emperor would never be so diligent and would still be in the imperial study room at this time, he was not afraid of anything but ten thousand.
As a result, of course it is gone.
If the emperor can't be found in these two places, then he is most likely to be in the palace of one of the concubines. With so many young concubines in the harem, how could the emperor not favor one or two of them?
Lan Jiuqing wanted to know which of the emperor's palaces was a matter of just one sentence, but he did not do so today because he knew very well that the fire in the animal garden was definitely not the emperor's fault.
Lan Jiuqing didn't have a specific goal. Apart from going to the palace of the Queen and Emperor Xie, he wandered around the harem at will, intending to walk all around, but in the end, Lan Jiuqing bumped into a dead mouse.
"The matter has been done, there is no way out for the queen."
A deep male voice reached Lan Jiuqing's ears. Lan Jiuqing took a few steps back, used his strength to jump up to the roof, and moved the tiles on the roof out of the way.
Inside the palace were the emperor's newly appointed Concubine Chun and a man in gray. Concubine Chun's face was no longer as charming as usual and was frighteningly pale.
Hearing the threat from the man in gray, Concubine Chun did not compromise, but said angrily: "What do you mean there is no way out? I have done nothing."
"My dear, you want to clear things up now, don't you think it's too late?" The man in black sneered, with a look of disdain.
Getting on a pirate ship is not something you can just do if you want to...
