"Alright, Meng Yi, don't think too much. Han Xin will take good care of them.”
Ying Zi Xuan looked at Meng Yi who still had a face full of worry, and very easily waved his hand.
Then, they began to discuss other things.
After Meng Yi calmed down, he immediately understood Ying Zi Xuan's meaning.
Whether it was Wang Li or Meng Cui, both of them were descendants of famous families.
If they were to be placed in Han Xin's team, their arrogance might affect Han Xin's command at the critical moment.
Rather than that, it was better to reject them.
These two kids had their families backing them up, so they definitely wouldn't be afraid of a small punishment.
Looking at the situation today, he would definitely sneak into Han Xin's team.
After all, it was impossible to tell that there were two of them among the five thousand light cavalry.
At that time, he would ask Han Xin to capture these two guys and use both kindness and power.
If he left the two of them behind, these two brats would definitely call him Big Brother Han in gratitude.
This was the perfect plan!
But in reality.
Meng Yi's worry came from Han Xin.
Because he did not trust Han Xin!
"Zhang Liang, today my brother and I asked for an edict from my father. If you meet any necromancers in the future, you can arrest them as you wish. He also confiscated the alchemist's alchemy notes. There was no need to do these things in secret. Just make a move, but don't cause panic.”
"That's good! Young Master, don't worry, Zi Fang knows her limits. Since there was His Majesty's decree, things would be much easier to handle.”
After the problem of the third generation was solved, Ying Zi Xuan brought up the problem of the necromancer.
After Zhang Liang heard this news, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
This was a good relationship!
Originally, he had set his eyes on several alchemist circles in Xianyang City and was prepared to secretly capture them all tonight.
Now, it seemed that he did not have to wait until night time.
She would catch him when she got back.
"Han Xin, do you want to take Xia Houying with you?”
"Yes, I've already informed Xia Houying. He was overjoyed to hear that he could go on the battlefield and make a name for himself.”
"Alright, brother, you will temporarily take over the mineral salt matter. When you return, write a memorial to Imperial Father to explain the specifics of the mineral salt.”
"Ah?"
Fu Su was originally here to freeload and be a guest, but he did not expect such a big mission to suddenly fall on his head.
This made him unable to react for a moment.
And when Meng Yi heard Ying Zi Xuan's arrangements, his gaze also slightly narrowed.
Right now in Xianyang City, Ying Zi Xuan had a tight grip on the salt.
The taste of the salt from the aristocratic families was bitter, and the coarse salt that was even adulterated with sand had completely lost its market.
All of Xianyang City's salt was completely taken over by Ying Zi Xuan.
It was cheap and tasted surprisingly good.
This salt business could be said to be making a lot of money every day.
But at this moment, Ying Zi Xuan actually threw it out with a backhand.
This boldness…
"Sixth Brother, didn't you say that you wanted to return to the country about the salt? Why don't we report it to Imperial Father and let him appoint us directly? This has always been in my hands…"
Fu Su looked at Ying Zixuan with slight worry.
It was obvious that she was worried that he didn't sell the salt.
After all, if this continued, the lifeline of Xianyang City would be in their hands.
If all the salt sellers were crushed to death by them…
In the future, they would be the only ones who would have the salt in Xianyang City.
What if they had evil intentions and maliciously adjusted the price or ran out of stock?
That would easily cause a huge storm in Xianyang City.
He felt like his hands were scalding when he held this thing in his hands.
"Young Master Fusu, if His Majesty was worried about Young Master Xuan, then the salt would have been taken away long ago. If you report to the salt controller, how should His Majesty distribute it? Have you thought about this problem? In the end, after going around in circles, it was very likely that they would return to the starting point.”
"Rather than letting His Majesty worry about who to hand this matter over to, it's better to hold it in your own hands. The final control is in the hands of His Majesty, and we are only responsible for managing it.”
"Could it be that Young Master Fusu and Young Master Xuan will betray His Majesty?”
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, Fu Su understood.
Ying Zi Xuan handing this matter over to him was sharing the risk.
Among all the young masters, he and his sixth disciple Xuan were the most important.
The one who was more likable was the eighteenth brother, Huhai.
Zi Xuan was now showing off his abilities. If he held salt in his hands, this lifeline, then he would inevitably become the target of public criticism.
The reason why he had thrown this to him was to share the pressure of those aristocratic families and clans with him.
At the same time, it was also blocking their mouths.
"Thank you for your explanation, sir. I'll take this job.”
After Fu Su reacted, he did not say anything else.
Ying Zi Xuan alone bore too much pressure. He was the eldest son, but he had always been hiding at the back.
This didn't make sense.
Moreover, as long as he could share his father's worries, Fu Su was willing to do it.
"Alright, since brother has accepted this task, Cao Can, before you hand over the money, deduct a portion of it. I will give you a blueprint tomorrow, and you can arrange to build an experimental area outside Xianyang City. In the future, Zhang Liang would throw the necromancers he caught into the cave.”
"No, it's not... Sixth Brother, aren't you scamming me? If you deduct a portion of it, how am I going to pay my father?”
"Just write it truthfully! Just say that I misused it. You've heard what Imperial Father said today. He supports it. This can be considered a reasonable diversion.”
"What you said makes sense. Then why didn't you ask Imperial Father for it directly?”
"I'm afraid that I won't be able to get the money if I get scolded, so I plan to get the money first before I get scolded."
"You are quite honest…"
...
Fu Su rubbed his forehead as he felt a headache coming on.
He clearly felt that he had been tricked again.
However, the problem was that he seemed to have been tricked very righteously.
"Han Xin, tidy up the documents on your side. When the time comes, let brother check it himself.”
"Don't worry, Young Master. I've memorized all the paperwork, the daily production, and the number of goods shipped. The newly found salt mines had not yet begun to operate. Once they were operational, the salt would spread to the surrounding cities.”
"Alright, brother, you can slowly study these things. If there's anything you don't know, you can discuss it with Meng Yi and Cao Can.”
After Meng Yi heard Ying Zi Xuan mention him, he was also stunned.
How did this involve him?
"Meng Yi, don't be in a daze. News of me researching salt will spread throughout Great Qin, and if this continues, something bad will happen sooner or later. You must be prepared."
What Ying Zi Xuan meant by something would happen sooner or later, Meng Yi naturally also knew.
The appearance of this mineral salt could be said to be a threat to Great Qin's upper echelons.
It might be better if it was just Xianyang City, but if it started to spread.
Those who relied heavily on salt to maintain their status would probably be anxious.
"Alright, I'll be careful now.”
The group chatted while eating.
After they were almost done eating, they had finished explaining and discussing what they needed to say.
It was finally time for the final highlight.
Wang Anruo's birthday party.
However, the atmosphere suddenly changed when this matter was brought up.
From the start of the meal to the end, Ying Zi Xuan, who had always occupied the absolute home ground, was now completely suppressed by his subordinates.
"This matter concerns Young Master's marriage, so I think it's better to be serious. Ancient gifts are absolutely indispensable."
"Why don't we just go and propose? I think this is more suitable."
"Han Xin, don't blindly join in. Your marriage hasn't been settled yet, and you're already here to make a fuss.”
"No! Zhang Liang, I don't like what you're saying! I, Han Xin, felt that women would weaken my spirit, so..."
"Shut up!"
"I…"
...
Ying Zi Xuan looked at the few people who were about to quarrel and stretched out his hand to suppress them.
He signaled for them to pause for a moment.
Why was this matter getting more and more ridiculous?
"Shut up, all of you. Old Man Wang just invited me to a gathering. What are you guys talking about?”
"Let's talk about the gift. I'm only allowed to talk about this. I'll throw out whoever's talking nonsense.”
After Ying Zi Xuan suddenly flew into a rage, Xiao He, Zhang Liang and the others also hurriedly adjusted their attitudes.
It was rare to encounter such a commotion.
They couldn't participate in the fun anymore.
It was all thanks to him.
"Haha, Sixth Brother, I find that your henchmen are really happy to follow you all day long.”
Fu Su looked at the group of people sitting in the living room.
It was impossible not to be envious.
These people were Ying Zi Xuan's subordinates, but they were also like friends.
When they talked about serious matters, they were serious and serious, and each of them had their own unique points.
Usually, they would play and laugh all day.
Who wouldn't want to have such a group of subordinates?
"Don't be envious. They're the only ones in the world. You can't be envious.”
"I…"
After Ying Zi Xuan teased Fu Su, he finally turned his gaze to Xiao He.
Among this group of people, Xiao He was the most steady.
"Let's talk about what gift to prepare for Grandfather Wang first. After all, it was a junior who came to visit. It was not appropriate to come empty-handed.”
Xiao He looked at the iced tea served by the maid, and his eyes moved slightly.
"Young Master, Old Man Wang has been fighting for his entire life. The amount of merit points he has is enough to scare people to death. The gold, silver, and jewelry that His Majesty had given him were probably enough to fill a few rooms. There's nothing new about these things, so I think Young Master should give something that others can't.”
"For example, the ice in this hot summer.”
As Xiao He spoke, he raised the cup in front of him and took a sip.
"I think what Old General Wang wants most now is to enjoy himself.”
An old general who had succeeded and retreated unscathed.
What he wanted now was nothing more than a comfortable life after retirement.
Since that was the case, why not make a move?
"Hmm, that's a good idea! However, the ice-making technology felt a little shabby. After all, this thing is of no value to me. How about this? He could also give the old man a set of Chinese chess and a set of mahjong so that his retirement life would be a little more fun.”
"Xiangqi? Mahjong?"
Even though he didn't know what Ying Zi Xuan said, but looking at his appearance, he should have already thought of what to give.
Since he had already made up his mind, this question was considered over.
However, there seemed to be another problem that needed to be studied.
"Speaking of which, if it's Wang An's birthday, what should I give him? Crystal Rainbow. Hong Lian, what do you think is a good gift?”
It was a girl's gift, so naturally, he had to ask the girl.
Otherwise, if he asked Xiao He and the others, they might just be spouting nonsense again.
The Crystal Salamander and Hong Lian faced Ying Zi Xuan's question, and only exchanged a glance before directly having an answer.
"Young Master, I think the gift should be a thought, not the gift itself.”
"Yes, if Lady Wang is interested in Young Master, she will definitely like whatever you give her.”
"Uh..."
They seemed to have said something, but why did it feel like nothing had been said?
And when Ying Zi Xuan looked towards Xiao He and Zhang Liang.
The replies he received were all nods of agreement.
Even Meng Yi was the same.
Good heavens, I seem to understand something, but I don't seem to understand anything at all.
Wasn't this asking for nothing?
