Eunuch Li's words made Duan Wenjun sweat.
It also made Chai Jingyun and Guan Xing stunned.
When they attacked Shan Fengshan that day, Chai Jingyun actually knew that Duan Wenjun had taken away part of the gold sand.
He feels that Duan Wenjun doesn't want credit but only money, which is normal.
After all, both Wangjiang County and Duanjiabao are in urgent need of money.
However, he never expected that the construction of the Duan Family Inn would actually cost so much money.
The entire Prince Rui Mansion's annual expenses are tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Duan Wenjun's construction of an inn will cover the expenses of Prince Rui's Mansion for more than ten years.
In fact, Chai Jingyun also knew very well about Duan Wenjun's gold sand sales.
After all, after operating in Jingzhou for so many years, Prince Rui's Mansion still has a certain degree of control over local intelligence.
Chai Jingyun knew that there was not much gold sand circulating on the black market recently.
This means that the gold sand Duan Wenjun got from Shan Fengshan was not a lot.
Of course, what he didn't know was that the gold sand with higher purity had been refined into gold leaves by Duan Wenjun, which could be used openly and would not flow into the black market at all.
Those that flowed into the black market were all of low purity, and Duan Wenjun deliberately used them to cover up his transactions.
Chai Jingyun even started to be jealous, the Duan family was too rich.
Unlike Chai Jingyun who lamented that the Duan family was so rich, Duan Wenjun was very nervous at the moment.
Since Eunuch Li is doubting him, it means that Emperor Shun is also doubting him.
Being targeted by the emperor is not a good thing.
Duan Wenjun began to rejoice that this time he did not agree to Chai Jingyun's proposal to equally share Shan Fengshan's mining rights.
If Chai Jingyun really suggested this, Emperor Shun might be more suspicious of him.
When the emperor was angry, blood flowed like a river...
Duan Wenjun has seen too many bloody cases like this in history textbooks.
However, Eunuch Li changed the subject and continued, "Master Duan, to be disrespectful, Wangjiang County is just a small place where birds don't lay eggs. You spent so much money to build such an inn." , what’s the use?”
Eunuch Li's words immediately made Duan Wenjun wake up.
It seems that I was indeed a little too thoughtless at the beginning.
A big tree attracts the wind. This is an eternal truth.
When I first considered building the Duan Family Inn, my original intention was to build a unique inn to attract more customers.
But he didn't expect that Huang Xiaoming was so capable that he invited Lin Nanzhun for him.
After discussing it with Lin Nanzhun, he became excited and made a decision immediately.
What you want to do, you have to do the best.
Therefore, he tried every means to raise funds to meet Lin Nanzhun's needs.
However, the Duan family's money was really limited, so he had to take Shan Fengshan's idea.
He is even considering using Duanjia Inn to create a business circle to drive the entire Wangjiang economy.
Of course, he couldn't explain this to Eunuch Li and Chai Jingyun.
After all, such forward-thinking things in the business world are far beyond their imagination and acceptance for the time being.
At the time, he was simply fascinated by the prospect of what he had built.
But it ignored a very critical issue.
The trees are beautiful in the forest.
Eunuch Li is right. In a place as quiet as Wangjiang, such a huge and luxurious inn should be built. How can it not be remembered by others?
Since it is easy to be remembered, it is also easy to be targeted.
Once someone is targeted, people will be reminded of the ins and outs, and many problems will be easily exposed.
Eunuch Li said it very tactfully.
It's an interesting fact, he said.
However, Duan Wenjun could hear the meaning behind his words.
In particular, not many people know about the 800,000 yuan budget of this inn.
Even people like Chai Jingyun, who had a very good relationship with him, didn't know.
However, Eunuch Li, who was far away in the capital and in the palace, knew about it.
what does that mean?
This means that every move he makes is actually under the surveillance of the royal family.
Maybe, the royal family has already known about Shan Fengshan.
Thinking of this, Duan Wenjun became even more frightened.
In this kind of feudal society, people believed in the divine right of kings, so the emperor was also called the Son of Heaven.
All the land in the world is the land of the king; the shores of the land are all the ministers of the king.
The royal family will feel that the entire Dashun belongs to their family.
Then, you must have absolute control over your own things.
During this period of time, Duan Wenjun has indeed made many achievements, but among them, there are also some opportunistic methods.
Many times, he still felt that he was doing it without even realizing it.
However, only now did I realize that maybe everything was under Emperor Shun's supervision.
It's just that for a little guy like himself, he was just too lazy to take care of himself before.
At this moment, he was given the title of baron and the power to raise private soldiers, so he began to worry about himself.
That's why I asked Eunuch Li to tell me this.
It's nothing more than wanting to beat myself up.
It was also at this time that Eunuch Li spoke again, "The gold mine in Shan Fengshan has been occupied by gold bandits for so many years. Now that we have taken it back, it is normal for us to get some hard money, but Wangjiang is not peaceful. Don't let it happen." People are wondering how the Duan family got this money, otherwise, the Duan family fort may never have peace."
After Eunuch Li finished speaking, he took out another imperial edict from his arms and handed it to Chai Jingyun.
However, this time it was not as formal as when the title of knighthood was announced just now. "The emperor said that it will not be easy for you two to conquer Shan Fengshan. This reward will be considered your reward."
Chai Jingyun looked confused, opened the imperial edict, and immediately screamed, "Three hundred thousand taels of silver? Eunuch Li, when will the emperor's reward arrive?"
"I just said, will there be a reward?" Eunuch Li rolled his eyes at Chai Jingyun, "Second Young Master, the emperor asked me to tell you that this Shan Fengshan gold should not be transported to the Mint in the future, but should be sent directly to the palace. !”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned again.
But Eunuch Li stood up and said, "Okay, our family is older and cannot compare to you young people. We are tired, so let's go to bed first."
Duan Wenjun hurriedly got up to see him off and asked Gu Hongfu to make arrangements himself.
Just when they returned to the house, they saw Guan Xing looking at them with a sad face and saying, "Second Young Master, Wen Jun, our place at Wangjiang is really going to be in chaos!"
Duan Wenjun was stunned when he heard this: "Master Guan, how do you say this?"
"Wen Jun, can't you still hear the meaning of Eunuch Li's words just now?" Guan Xing sighed longly, "Don't let people doubt how your Duan family got the money. Otherwise, the Duan family's fort will be ruined." I’m afraid there will never be peace.”
When Chai Jingyun heard this, his face suddenly changed. "Could it be that someone is suspecting that Wenjun's money for building the inn is related to the treasure of the previous dynasty?"
