The next morning.
Su Yang got up early and prepared to visit Bao Zhao.
Although Bao Zhao was having trouble with Su Yang, for the anthracite and to save more poor people, Su Yang was still going to visit and give it a try.
After all, Guo You has made it very clear that he, Su Yang, really wants to acquire the land in Xishan and mine anthracite coal on his own, so a big shot must take the blame.
With his status as a "commoner" like Su Yang, he would not be able to pass the official test, but would bring disaster to himself.
But the cold winter was coming, and even if it wasn't for his little wife, Su Yang couldn't help but watch the people starve to death and freeze to death.
After all, he had a way to let the poor people live a warm winter!
So after thinking about it, Su Yang was ready to sacrifice his skin and go seek help from Bao Zhao.
As Bao Zhao is a pure scholar and a good minister who is dedicated to serving the country and the people, he must agree.
With this in mind, Su Yang had a simple breakfast with the little girl and then got ready to go out.
But when he opened the courtyard door, he saw a very obvious big fat man coming here.
"Eh? Brother!"
The little girl said hello immediately.
Zhu Gaochi smiled and touched her head, then looked at Su Yang.
"Boy Su, you don't have to go find that old gentleman!"
"Here, this is the title deed of the land in Xishan. You are now the owner of that land!"
When Su Yang heard this, he was immediately confused.
what's the situation?
Prince Yan's Mansion actually came to visit?
Could it be... Guo You!
It must be this guy who went back and told his father Guo Zi, and then Guo Zi told the news to King Zhu Di of Yan!
Su Yang thought this, after all, this is the only reasonable explanation.
How did he know that just last night, an unworthy father-in-law eavesdropped on the wall.
Su Yang looked at the Xishan land deed in front of him and did not reach out to take it.
After all, no matter how barren the land in Xishan is, it is still a huge piece of land, and it will cost at least tens of thousands of taels of silver!
"Brother, this land deed...what does Prince Yan's Mansion mean?"
"Indeed, I want to buy the land in Xishan, but I don't have enough money now!"
"Don't worry!" Zhu Gaochi saw Su Yang's concerns and said with a smile: "This is the dowry your father-in-law gave to you and Xiaowan!"
"Your father-in-law heard that you wanted to buy this land, so he bought it from Prince Yan's Mansion at a low price, and then went through all the procedures directly. Now the land in Xishan belongs to you and your wife! "
"Didn't you give me a betrothal gift at the beginning? With a betrothal gift but no dowry, what does that sound like?"
Zhu Gaochi spoke with a smile and gave a reason that Su Yang couldn't refuse.
In fact, before coming, he discussed with Zhu Di how to let Su Yang safely take over the land in Xishan and then mine anthracite coal without exposing his identity.
The father and son thought about it and finally came up with the "dowry" method.
After all, the land in Xishan is nominally owned by King Zhu Di of Yan, so it is naturally up to him, Zhu Di, to decide how to deal with it.
And the betrothal gift that Su Yang gave to Prince Yan's Mansion was the mineral salt refining process, which was an inexhaustible mountain of gold and silver!
Compared with Su Yang's betrothal gift, it is really shabby for Prince Yan's palace to use this land as a dowry.
But now that the situation is special, everyone can’t care so much anymore.
Furthermore, Zhu Di gave the land in Xishan to Su Yang in the name of dowry.
As long as Su Yang accepts the dowry, the relationship between him and Zhu Di will be a real son-in-law.
This is a matter of status, and Su Yang cannot tolerate unilateral disagreement!
In fact, Zhu Di and his son also had their thoughts on using the land in Xishan to completely tie Su Yang to Prince Yan's Mansion.
And Su Yang didn't understand what his father-in-law was thinking, so he hesitated for a while and didn't speak.
On the contrary, my daughter-in-law Zhu Wanqiu was overjoyed. She took the title deed to Xishan and read it happily.
The little girl has always been worried that her father will look down on Su Yang. After returning to Peiping for so long, her father has not mentioned their marriage.
But I didn't expect that my father would directly send me the dowry today!
Isn't this a disguised recognition of Su Yang's son-in-law?
The little girl happily held the title deed to Xishan.
"Ms. sir, just agree!"
"My father has approved of you, so just agree, okay?"
Looking at his little wife who kept acting coquettishly, Su Yang nodded helplessly.
What else can I do with the wife I have chosen? I can only pamper her.
Su Yang smiled bitterly and shook his head, then looked at Big Fatty.
"In that case, I will accept the dowry, and I would like to ask my eldest brother to thank my father-in-law on my behalf!"
Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi finally put his heart back in his stomach and smiled on his face.
"By the way, you don't have to go find that old gentleman!"
"Your father-in-law has opened all the doors for you. You can do whatever you want on the land in Xishan!"
As soon as these words came out, Su Yang was a little shocked.
In just one day and one night, that cheap father-in-law opened all the doors for him?
Are all the generals of King Yan Zhu Di so awesome?
It seems that he, Su Yang, underestimated the power of the Yan Palace and the Yan King Zhu Di!
After sighing, Su Yang chose to accept it.
Anyway, his cheap father-in-law has already helped him smoothen the relationship. If he wants to forcefully protect his son-in-law Su Yang, Su Yang will save himself the trouble of bothering Bao Zhao again.
"Also, there is one more thing."
"Boy Su, if you want to open a mine, you will definitely need a lot of manpower."
"But the situation in Beiping Mansion is tense right now. If you rashly summon a large number of young people, I'm afraid you will be targeted by someone who is interested!"
"So what your father-in-law means is that he has a close relationship with the three commanders of the Three Guards of Yanshan, and the Three Guards are stationed in the military camp in the western suburbs outside the city, which is also very close to the Xishan Mountain. Just let them help you mine anthracite coal. That's fine. It’s time for military training!”
Su Yang: "!!!"
Numb!
A little numb!
Those are the three guards of Yanshan!
Does your father-in-law have such a great reputation?
Let the Yanshan Three Guards, the elite soldiers of Yan King Zhu Di, come to dig mine for me?
The three guards of Yanshan and the personal guards of Prince Yan's Mansion.
This soldier is famous in history.
A famous general from Yanshan, with three guards from the bottom up!
For example, the famous generals Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng of Jingnan came from the middle guard of Yanshan, the famous general Zhang Yu came from the left guard of Yanshan, and the famous general Tan Yuan came from the right guard of Yanshan. These famous generals are either brave generals who are the best in the three armies, or they are Confucian generals who are both wise and brave. The Battle of Jingnan left a lasting mark!
In other words, the three guards of Yanshan are the direct descendants of King Zhu Di of Yan, and they are one of Zhu Di's trump cards for revolting against Jingnan!
It seems a little inappropriate for the cheap father-in-law to let these elite generals mine for him, right?
How much face do you have!
In Su Yang's memory, there was no such fierce man as his father-in-law among the nobles of Jingnan!
Is it possible that my father-in-law died in the battle of Jingnan, so his reputation is not known?
