In the cold wind.
A huge team headed towards Yingqing Mansion along the official road. In the middle of the team, there is a flag with the word "Wu" and a flag with the word "Yanhan".
Under the banner. Two coachmen sat in front, driving a very sturdy and durable carriage to follow the team.
Inside the carriage.
Wu Nian was wrapped in a black bear skin cloak, sitting on the carriage of the carriage, reading quietly. In front of him is a small table.
Pastries, dried fruit preserves and other snacks are placed on top.
"General." A man's voice sounded outside the carriage. Wu Nian put down the book in his hand, opened the car window and door, and asked, "What's going on?"
A soldier on horseback followed the carriage forward. While handing the fold in his hand to Wu Nian. He said respectfully: "This is the book sent by Liu Changshi."
"Um."
Wu Nian hummed, reached out to take the fold, and then closed the car window. He did not rush to read the booklet, but pinched a few pieces of pastry and ate it, then clapped his hands, opened the booklet, and continued to sit and watch.
"National debt? I didn't expect this before. But it's normal. Kyogoku Yuki is a lonely ghost in Ryukyu. He pinned all his hopes on me, so he is so reliable. How can ordinary foreign businessmen be reliable?"
"Businessmen pursue profit. Not to mention foreign businessmen?"
"Everyone pushed the wall down."
Wu Nian smiled, shook his head and put down the fold. He took out his own ink pen and red ink, and wrote with the ink pen.
"We'll talk about it when I get back."
After finishing writing. Wu Nian took out a small hammer and knocked on the wooden board.
"General." Someone said immediately outside the door.
Wu Nian stretched out his hand to open the car window, handed the folder to the soldier, and ordered: "Send someone to send it to Jiang County quickly."
"Yes." The soldier reached out and took the fold, and immediately went down to do the work.
Wu Nian closed the window. He didn't sleep well last night. The carriage was rickety and uncomfortable.
He yawned, moved the small table in front of him, unfolded the folded quilt next to him, took off his big cloak, covered himself, yawned again, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep. .
This morning. Wu Nian arrived in Jiang County. He told the officials in advance that there was no need to greet him and entered the city in a low-key manner.
But no matter how low-key you are, it won't get you anywhere. A carriage escorted by thousands of soldiers marched through the streets. The people on the road had to step aside, and many people lowered their heads slightly to show respect.
They didn't know who was in the carriage.
But currently throughout Liaodong, the status of the army and generals is very high. Many people respect him from the bottom of their hearts.
Soon, the carriage arrived outside the gate of General Fuhan's Mansion. Wu Nian got out of the carriage, stepped on the small bench and landed on the ground, entering the gate.
"General. All the senior officials are already waiting in the main room. In addition, Miss Kyogoku is here to visit, and my subordinates are arranged in the living room."
An official came up and said to Wu Nian.
"Huh?" Wu Nian looked surprised and stopped. After thinking for a while, he said to the officials: "Let the officials wait a moment. I will go to see Kyogoku Yukiri first."
"Yes." The official responded, and immediately sent someone to inform the officials in the hall, while he led the way.
The huge Fuhan General's Mansion has many living rooms.
soon. Wu Nian came outside the living room and walked in. Immediately, his eyes lit up. Kyogoku Yuki was not wearing a kimono, but a Han skirt. Her hair was also styled into a double-snail bun, and she was lightly painted with powder and pink, making her look very gorgeous.
However, everything remains unchanged.
There is elegance and nobility in her bones.
Before, she was the legitimate daughter of a famous family.
Now, she is the princess of Ryukyu.
"General." Kyogoku Yuki stood up, posed with his hands, and gave Wu Nian a standard Wanfu gift for a Han woman.
"No courtesy. Sit down." Wu Nian raised his hands, gave the other party a virtual support, and then came to the main seat and sat down. Didn't comment on the other person's appearance.
Really beautiful though.
"Miss. Are you still used to living in Kyogoku's family?" Wu Nian and Kyogoku Xueli started to chat.
"Thank you for your concern, General. For the Kyogoku family, this is a foreign country. The daily life is really not used to it. But the Kyogoku family has been destroyed, so they are very grateful to have a place to live."
Kyogoku Yuki sat in an extremely dignified posture, shaking her head slightly.
Her mood is very complicated.
The Kyogoku family of Fuso was wiped out by the Toyotomi family because it was affected by Ryukyu. Although most of the family members escaped, the retainers suffered heavy losses.
As far as Fuso is concerned, the Kyogoku family has perished.
She was ashamed.
As for Wu Nian, she took in the Kyogoku family and the remnants of Ryukyu without any hesitation. She was very grateful.
This is not something that ordinary people can do.
Strength, courage, and loyalty are all indispensable.
"Miss, you are serious. As the saying goes, a poor bird is in your arms. Based on the relationship between Miss and me, this is what I should do." Wu Nian shook his head, his expression very serious.
Kyogoku Yuki took a breath and suppressed the gratitude in her heart. Some things are useless if you talk too much. Thinking of this, Kyogoku Yuki lightly opened her red lips, bent down and said: "General. I heard that businessmen are running on national debts. I am willing to pay to buy all these national debts."
Private trading of registered treasury bonds is not allowed. Otherwise Kyogoku Yuki would have purchased it privately and would not have come to ask Wu Nian for instructions.
Wu Nian laughed, shook his head and said, "Miss, you are interested. I know that you are grateful to me, but you don't have to be like this."
"Miss, you also helped me. During the drought, if Miss hadn't brought food here, I don't know how many people would have died in Liaodong."
"Friendship is far more valuable than money."
"It should be very difficult for the Kyogoku family now. In addition, according to the agreement, the equipment, money and food for the Wanhu navy under Matsudaira Isshin are all handled by you, Miss. The expenses of the Wanhu navy are no joke."
"I can't take your money."
"But General. This matter happened because of us." Kyogoku Yuki blamed herself very much, shaking her head and saying.
"I said it. It doesn't matter. Please don't say it anymore, Miss. I will solve the national debt issue myself." Wu Nian's attitude was very clear, and he shook his head after finishing. He stood up and said, "Miss. The officials are still waiting for me."
"I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, Wu Nian walked towards the door.
"General." Jingji Xueliu frowned, stood up and chased after him, but only saw Wu Nian's back. He couldn't help but hold on to the door frame, biting his red lips gently, feeling guilty and grateful.
"Although I helped him, the burden of the country now falls entirely on him. Because of this, he had an enmity with General Toyotomi. After all, I owe him."
soon. Wu Nian came outside the hall, straightened his appearance a little, and walked in with his head held high.
