"Get out of the way, get out of the way..."

At this moment, a group of guards aggressively swept away the merchants.

I saw Wang Dekuai walking quickly surrounded by guards...

"Hey, Mr. Wei has finally found you."

Wang De angrily ran to the high platform and said breathlessly.

"Why did Mr. Wang come in person?"

Wei Shuyu thought for a moment and asked, "It seems that I haven't made His Majesty angry recently, right?"

"..."

You are really self-aware.

Do you know that you often make His Majesty angry?

"Something serious has happened."

Wang De said in a low voice: "The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are about to go on an expedition, but due to the corruption of officials in the Ministry of War, they are missing 50,000 sets of cold-proof supplies."

"According to His Majesty's instructions, the Ministry of Commerce is ordered to gather 50,000 sets of cold-proof materials as quickly as possible."

Wei Shuyu was stunned.

Immediately he asked: "Will your Majesty pay me?"

money?

The Ministry of Commerce is part of the imperial court, so it still needs money?

"Does your commercial department have no money?" Wang De asked angrily.

"Yes, I have."

Wei Shuyu said with difficulty, "But our Shang Department is about to expand to the Tang Dynasty, so the gap is a bit big."

"you you you……"

Wang De was so angry that he didn't know what to say: "You have a big gap, why don't you go to His Majesty to apply?"

"Those guys from the Ministry of War go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to apply for supplies every year."

Damn it.

It turns out that I can still reach out to His Majesty!

Wei Shuyu was stunned.

Because the purpose of the commercial department is to make money, and it is still in the early stages.

He always thought he had to be self-reliant.

"Mr. Wei..."

Wang De shouted.

"Sorry, I got distracted."

A smile suddenly broke out on Wei Shuyu's face: "Mr. Wang, are you tired from the journey? I have some good tea cakes, why not try them?"

"..."

Wang De shuddered.

The old Wei family is either trolling people or criticizing Li Shimin every day.

He had never seen anyone from the Wei family show such a warm smile.

"Don't say this anymore."

Wang De said eagerly: "Can we get 50,000 sets of cold-proof supplies?"

"It's just... a trivial matter!" Wei Shuyu agreed.

Immediately turned to look at the audience...

"Everyone, the time has come when we need your help."

Uh-huh.

All merchants looked at Wei Shuyu...

"The imperial court is in urgent need of 50,000 sets of cold-proof supplies. I wonder who can raise them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a merchant immediately stood up.

"Mr. Wei."

The merchant clasped his fists and said, "The common people still have a batch of linen clothes. Is that okay?"

Wei Shuyu looked at Wang De: "Is it okay with Mai?"

"Can."

Wang De nodded.

Cotton was not yet popular in the Tang Dynasty.

Not to mention expensive silk for soldiers.

Most of the soldiers wore linen clothes and linen shoes.

The reason why so many people freeze to death in winter is because there is no clothing to keep out the cold!

"Are there fifty thousand sets?"

Wei Shuyu looked at the merchants in the audience.

"Return to Mr. Wei."

The merchant replied: "There are only three thousand sets for ordinary people."

As soon as these words came out.

Wei Shuyu couldn't help but frowned.

There must be too many f**king differences.

And as soon as he finished his thoughts, another merchant stood up...

"Hey, I thought you had 50,000 sets. I was so scared that I didn't dare to say anything."

After finishing speaking, the merchant raised his hands to Wei Shuyu and said, "Mr. Wei, I have ten thousand sets of linen clothes in Fuguifang."

As he finished speaking, another merchant stood up.

"Mr. Wei, I also have eight thousand sets in Jinggong Pavilion."

"Mr. Wei, the common people also have five thousand pairs of hemp shoes."

"I have 20,000 sets in Xiuyun Tower!"

As merchants stood up one by one, Wei Shuyu's face suddenly burst into a smile.

Just saying...

Hu County is a trade city, how could it not be able to get even 50,000 units together?

"Then I'll bother you all."

Wei Shuyu cupped his hands and said, "This batch of supplies is urgently needed by the imperial court."

"The Ministry of Commerce will purchase it at market price."

"I hope you can raise funds quickly."

When the merchants heard this, they ordered their followers to go back and make arrangements.

As for myself, of course I urgently need to stay here.

Listen to Wei Shuyu's speech.

What if there is any opportunity to make a fortune?

"Mr. Wang, look..." Wei Shuyu said with a smile.

Wang De was stunned.

Is this done?

It feels a bit simple.

"Quickly..."

Wang De shouted to a guard: "Go and report to Your Majesty that the Ministry of Commerce has solved the problem of cold-proof supplies!"

"promise."

The guards mounted their horses and left.

Wei Shuyu said some more words and hurriedly ended the meeting.

"Manager Wang, if you don't go to the city gate and keep an eye on the supplies, why are you following me?"

On the way back to the Yamen, Wei Shuyu asked suspiciously when he saw Wang De following him.

"Ahem..."

Manager Wang coughed awkwardly: "Isn't it Mr. Wei that you said you wanted to invite the Za family to tea?"

"..."

I just said a few polite words, but you really believe me.

Wei Shuyu looked at Cui Shenji helplessly: "Little Jiji, get some good tea cakes for Manager Wang later."

"Good tea cakes, aren't they?"

Cui Shenji nodded: "I understand!"

Snapped.

Wei Shuyu's backhand was a fool's errand: "Don't add any more information, Manager Wang is His Majesty's man."

"..."

What the hell is extra?

Why do the Zajia have an ominous premonition?

"oh oh."

Cui Shenji covered his head, looking slightly aggrieved.

"I wonder if Mr. Wang has anything else to do?" Wei Shuyu then looked at Wang De.

"Ahem..."

Wang De coughed awkwardly: "Didn't you hear that sugar can make money? I wonder if the Zajia family can..."

Wang Dexian looked a little embarrassed.

But the meaning is already obvious, Zajia wants to make money!

"..."

Wei Shuyu looked strange: "I'm talking to Mr. Wang, this candy is His Majesty's property. How dare you step in to get a share of it?"

Uh-huh.

Wang De's face turned pale.

If Li Shimin found out about this, he would have to clean the locker room for a few more months.

"That's not what Zajia meant..."

Wang De's mind was racing: "What Zajia means is, are there any similar ways to make money?"

"You are a popular person in front of His Majesty."

Wei Shuyu said speechlessly: "Aren't you afraid of being scolded by His Majesty and losing your position as general manager if you make money?"

Wang De was dumbfounded.

This seems to be true.

If the censor knew about this, even he would impeach him.

Could it be that the Za family is not destined to make a fortune?

"Don't be sad, Mr. Wang."

Wei Shuyu's voice changed: "I do have a project suitable for you."

Um?

Wang De's eyes instantly burst into light.

"I don't know..." Wang De hesitated.

"Build the road!"

Wei Shuyu said with a smile: "This road construction is not only for the benefit of the people, but also will not be rumored to compete with the people for profit."

"If you invest in this industry, I guarantee that no one will say anything about you."

Wang De frowned.

He came relatively late and did not hear the meeting between Wei Shuyu and the merchants.

It wasn't until Wei Shuyu explained how to make money for road construction that he realized what he was doing.

"So the Zajia family has to invest first?" Wang De asked doubtfully.

"This is not nonsense."

Wei Shuyu said disdainfully: "Your Majesty paid for it first, you still want to have sex for free?"

That makes damn sense.

Wang De thought for a while and asked, "Can I make money from this?"

"If you don't believe me, why are you looking for me?" Wei Shuyu said with a serious face.

"Don't bother me."

Wang Depei smiled and said: "As long as you can make money, the Zajia family will never open your mouth when you criticize His Majesty in the future."

Dog eunuch!

It's as if you can stop me from spraying His Majesty.

"Then thank you, Manager Wang."

Wei Shuyu cupped his hands.

While the two were talking, a man in light green official uniform walked towards them.

The moment Wang De saw him, endless sparks burst out from his eyes...

Wang Gui!

A man who wants to compete with himself for favor!
