Chapter 321: The Imperial Merchant Was Robbed

Cheng Xiaolian stared at Jia Xu: "Since your goal is to be a military advisor, it is far from enough to rely on my appreciation, at least you must be recognized by your subordinates and brothers, you will become a military advisor before you have made an inch, even if I am willing, I am afraid that the brothers below will not be convinced." ”

Jia Xu hesitated for a moment, and finally felt that what Cheng Xiaolian said made some sense, so he asked, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"Go and find the king~ auxiliary minister, with a generous gift, now that we have no conflict of interest, he shouldn't embarrass you."

"Your Highness is trying to recruit him?"

"He is capricious, and it may be a trouble to recruit him, but his army is a strong army, even if we don't recruit it, try not to let this army fall into the hands of the Manchus."

"So what should I say?"

"Let's just say that we are willing to form an alliance with him, and in the future, if he is desperate, he can ask us to help."

Jia Xu couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "Your Highness, I really don't know what you mean. ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "Think about it, he now nominally belongs to Wu Sangui, but he just looks at Wu Sangui's momentum, but if one day the Manchu soldiers come to the city, will he waver?" At that time, I am afraid that he will immediately return to the hands of the Manchus. ”

Jia Xu scratched his head: "But in that case, what conditions should we use to convince him?" After all, he is not a fool, and if our conditions are not generous enough, I think he will definitely not cooperate with the weakest of the three parties. ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "You just told him that because of the dirty relationship with Wu Yinglin, he came out of the command of King Pingxi, and this account is not counted now, and it may not be counted in the future." He also returned to Wu Sangui because of the homeopathy, and now the Manchu Qing Dynasty also regarded him as a trouble, even if he didn't mention it for the time being, after a few years he pacified the rivers and mountains, he would definitely be bullied by those meritorious officials, and he was only afraid that life would be worse than death at that time. We have no other stakes in him, we have Sichuan in hand, and we can respond to the aid at a critical time, he has the elite army in the Shaanxi and Gansu regions, and one day he may not be able to become a barrier to Sichuan. ”

Hearing this, Jia Xu nodded: "I understand what His Highness said, I'll do it." ”

Cheng Xiaolian quipped: "What? Don't shirk it? Not afraid of dying? ”

Jia Xu smiled: "I'm really worried that you let me send an envoy to Wu Sangui or the Manchu court, it is really a no-go return, as for the king ~ auxiliary ministers, I am not too worried, I have read the intelligence analysis of Jinyiwei, said that this person attaches great importance to small righteousness and forgets the great righteousness, and the two armies will not be cut against each other, he will never break this rule, otherwise he will save up for decades ~ auxiliary ministers, but it will all be lost, so I am really willing to do it." ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "Go ahead, I'll arrange someone to escort you over, pay attention to safety, and you can use the method of agitation, but don't provoke him, we just want to form an alliance with him, not to annex him, presumably he won't have much disgust with us." ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, I have my own measure in this matter, and I will never mess things up."

"Okay, get ready and you set off, be careful when doing things, even if things go badly, just come back alive, you have to remember that as long as people live, there is always a way to solve things."

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, with this sentence, I will definitely do this beautifully."

After sending Jia Xu away, Cheng Xiaolian remembered Rosen again, but it was already a little late, and it was always a little inappropriate to go to Rosen again, so he was ready to rest.

At this time, Yang Youcai suddenly broke in: "Your Highness, something happened." ”

Cheng Xiaolian frowned, it must not be a trivial matter that can make Yang Youcai change his color: "What's the matter?" ”

"The first shipment of the Imperial Merchants has been robbed."

"What? Where was it robbed? ”

"It's in Sichuan."

"What's your news?"

"I've already sent someone to investigate, but these imperial businessmen who have said it have begun to retreat."

Cheng Xiaolian understood what he meant, these people are imperial businessmen, and they want to be stable, but now under his rule, the goods have been robbed, if they are not handled well, it can only be said that he does not have the ability to control Sichuan, so who is willing to be an imperial businessman, there is no benefit at all, and he makes a lot less money than other voices, and in the end he can't even guarantee stability.

"Immediately mobilize the surrounding Jinyi guards and cast nets to find out the news, no matter who it is, this time we will kill the chickens and monkeys."

Yang Youcai nodded: "This matter is already being done, but those people still need Your Highness to come forward to appease them again, and they don't believe much of what I said." ”

"Where are they?"

"It's right outside the house."

"Call them in." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Fu: "Uncle Fu, prepare some refreshments and preserved fruits." ”

After a while, several people walked into the house, the oldest of these people was in their fifties, and the youngest was in their thirties, they all seemed to be the heads of the family, and they all showed embarrassed looks on their faces, I don't know if this matter will anger Cheng Xiaolian, and it will not be good if it will affect the family's business at that time.

Thinking of this, they secretly regretted it, why did they bother to be an imperial businessman in the first place, although they earned a little less in Chengdu Shangtang, but they would not encounter this kind of thing.

Cheng Xiaolian looked at them and smiled: "Everyone, please take a seat." ”

After the guests sat down, Zhu Fu arranged for someone to serve refreshments and preserved fruits, and then withdrew, and the first one of the shopkeepers in his thirties couldn't help but speak: "Your Highness, the grass people are Cao Jian, and the family is in the tea business, and a few days ago, I was confused and agreed to be an imperial merchant, but after thinking about it, I felt that our ability may not be able to cope with this kind of trading of imperial merchants, so I also asked His Royal Highness to withdraw his order, and we are willing to offer filial piety as a punishment for our broken promise." ”

Cheng Xiaolian didn't speak, picked up the teacup and gently blew the tea leaves on it, and another forty-year-old shopkeeper couldn't help but open his mouth: "Your Highness, the so-called twisted melon is not sweet, we made a wrong judgment at the beginning, which affected His Highness's arrangement, no matter how much silver we lost, we are willing to compensate, and ask Your Highness to take back your life." ”

Cheng Xiaolian took a sip of tea and put the teacup on the table: "I can understand your feelings, because the Gu family was robbed, people are panicking, I promise to give you an explanation within five days, if you still insist on not being this imperial merchant within five days, then I unconditionally agree to your withdrawal?" ”

Several people were all happy when they heard this: "Is Your Highness serious?" ”

"I am His Royal Highness Daming, is it necessary to lie to you? But there is one thing you have to remember, in these five days, you are still the imperial merchant, and the goods that should be purchased are not small at all, if you are passive and slack off, and then delay my big event, I will not spare you. ”
