"If I hadn't heard what you said about how His Highness had a dispute with the Grand Duke of West Asia and achieved such results, I would really have found it hard to believe that I could still wait until this day."
Wen Yongxing looked at the various edicts and cancellations on the table with half embarrassment and half emotion. He turned to Zhong Lilin and sighed: "It's not disrespectful to His Highness, but I would like to remind you, don't have high expectations just because of this." , Prodigal sons have come back step by step since ancient times. If you are eager to bet on your highness and want to explore your father's justice back then, be careful not to act too hastily."
“Students understand.”
Zhong Lilin nodded solemnly: "To be honest, the student doesn't know why His Highness is so interested in Yihong Tower. At first, I just thought that Your Highness spent An Haijin to build the building according to his own temperament. At least it is more beneficial than the statue. , but now it seems that His Highness really wants to run this Yihong Building."
After hearing this, Wen Yongxing raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window, and whispered in a low voice: "Good fortune... His Highness was so indulged in the harem before, but now he is serious about doing ridiculous things. Which one is better and worse? Even the teacher himself doesn’t know it anymore.”
"Teacher, what do you think of this?"
Zhong Lilin looked at the edict canceling the case on the table and had an idea: "Since poaching people is inappropriate, we might as well do the opposite. If the girl doesn't come to Yihong Tower, Yihong Tower will go to the girl."
"how to get to?"
"After the student told His Highness this suggestion, His Highness gave it some thought and consideration, including this method. However, His Highness seemed to have something important to do and was quite anxious, so he simply said a few words and told him to come to Taishu tomorrow. Let’s discuss it carefully in the cabinet.”
Zhong Lilin dipped his brush in ink and gently wrote two words on the paper——
Chi Gu
"Chi Gu?"
Wen Yongxing stroked his beard: "What does this mean? Did His Highness say it?"
Zhong Lilin nodded: "Exactly, the student mentioned the idea of poaching people, and His Highness immediately thought that it might not be easy to bring people into Yihong Tower without any obstacles, so he said this word, and its meaning is-"
He paused for a moment, thought carefully in his mind, and said, "The meaning is to divide Yihong Tower's revenue into multiple parts, with the state treasury holding part of it, and the remaining part being handed over to the private sector like a project contractor. It will be managed and operated by a popular folk entertainment venue, and the profits gained will naturally be divided as usual."
It is not difficult to understand what he said. Wen Yongxing considered it and raised his hand to tap the table: "In other words, His Highness's Yihong Building can do the places that the private sector cannot set foot in, so private romantic places can enter and operate in the Yihong Building?"
"Exactly."
Zhong Lilin nodded. Although this matter is relatively new, it is by no means the first creation of Han Dongwen. Yang Kai's Hanying Sect had to take the enfeoffment of the Sky Eagle City Law Division to use Bailan Mountain's mineral medicinal materials. Many sects in the inland even There are farmland and pastures, highlighting a production structure in which the three divisions feed on the sect, and the sect feeds on the common people.
Of course, what Han Dongwen was talking about was not Chigu, it was just a simple state shareholding.
"However, there is an obstacle to this method."
Zhong Lilin rubbed his chin: "There has been a problem with Yihong Building since the beginning of its construction. Teacher, you also said it."
Wen Yongxing nodded and fell into deep thought.
This question is self-explanatory, of course -
This Yihong Building doesn't make any money!
It is not in the center of the city where there are a lot of people, where the area has already been occupied by major shops, but it is built like a sentry tower on the outskirts of Simeng. How can anyone go there?
No one, where does the money come from?
It's obvious that they can't make any money, so why would anyone think of running this Yihong Building?
The two were deep in thought when suddenly a servant knocked gently on the door and reported:
"Lord Pavilion Boss, Lord Supervisor of Pavilion, and Lord Lieutenant of the Ministry of Finance Si Chen are here."
——————
"Take it."
A cloth bag was thrown into Han Dongwen's arms by Yang Kai, and the two were on the carriage returning to Han Yingzong in Tianying City.
Naturally, it was not fighting spirit that turned into a horse. Although Yang Kai could fly freely, Han Dongwen could not.
Obviously Yang Kai wanted to save face and didn't want to fly back with him in his arms.
"Ah, this disciple has thanked the sect master!"
Han Dongwen recognized the money bag in his arms that had just been given by the Chief Justice, and was surprised and happy. Having this large sum of money when he was running out of ammunition and food could be said to be a timely help.
He weighed the cloth bag in his hand and felt that it seemed much lighter than when the captain dropped it on him. He opened it with some doubts and his face collapsed - there was only twenty gold dollars left in the cloth bag. About half of them were gone!
"Sect Master, I will give you this money..."
"What am I!" Yang Kai glared at him angrily: "Do you think you just walked out like this casually?"
Han Dongwen blinked, put away the money bag, and asked: "You mean, this money bribed the captain? It's not like that, he looks quite serious..."
Yang Kai moved his gaze to the side, raised the small curtain and looked at the scenery on the roadside, and sighed: "That captain... If it were normal, let alone your fifty gold, even if it is five hundred gold, I'm afraid he wouldn't I’ll take a closer look.”
"That is……?"
"The monster appeared a few days ago, and many people died under his command. All his brothers have families, wives and sons-in-law. He himself has no salary, so it is time to use money."
"You know very well." Han Dongwen sighed.
"He is from Hanying Sect, so he is your senior brother!"
Yang Kai turned his head and looked at Han Dongwen: "Okay, don't give me a bad look. I'm afraid you, a scoundrel, have never seriously regarded me as a sect leader. You entered Han Ying Sect just to detect those traitors who took over Yihong Tower." ?Honestly, where are you from?"
Whether it was Lord Wen's personal promotion or the report beforehand, Gu Hanyang clearly had his own purpose in the Han Ying Sect. He was definitely not attending this cram school for civil servants. Anyone with a discerning eye could see this. Something has to come out.
Originally Jiang Keyin had agreed to do some packaging for Han Dongwen, but obviously the process from upper-level command to lower-level practice would still take some time.
The carriage bumped, Yang Kai frowned and looked at Gu Hanyang in front of him, wondering if the other person could really help him.
"My background..."
Han Dongwen decided to wait for Jiang Keyin's operation to take effect. He just shook his head and said, "Sect Master, I can't say this."
Yang Kai stared at him for a long time and sighed: "Forget it, it doesn't matter who you are. I've been looking for you for a long time these days, and I still have one question to ask you."
"You say."
"After the incident in Tianying City broke out the day before yesterday, the sect's vitality was severely damaged. The Haoshan Alliance in the neighboring city is eyeing it and wants to replace our sect. Can you, or the forces behind you, help the Hanying Sect and do something This deal?”
Han Dongwen narrowed his eyes slightly and leaned back: "Oh? Deal?"
"Exactly."
Yang Kai gritted his teeth: "I'm afraid that Sizhou's side has switched sides. If this is true, I'm afraid, as the few thieves in the dungeon said, our Han Ying Sect's time is numbered. I don't want to ask about the power behind you. Whose name is it, but I still hope to be able to influence this situation. This is a competition between the major sect leaders and the upper-level people like the captain. If you have the opportunity, you should go back and ask about it."
He never expected that the power behind Han Dongwen would be big enough to influence Sizhou's decision-making. After all, Sizhou could be regarded as an ancestor and an elder in every major sect, but he also expected to reach the level of Captain of Tianying City. Otherwise, Sizhou Under the pressure put by the state on Tianying City, even if this sentimental captain is from the Han Ying Sect, he may not be able to withstand the pressure.
Han Dongwen, a lower-class person, touched his chin and felt happy.
