The silk ribbons are floating in prosperity, and Yu'an's mansion is singing and dancing under the cave sky night.
Agui washed the grapes and gently placed them in Yu'an's hand. He smiled and stared at the dancing woman in the center of the hall, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Ancestor just knows how to enjoy it. He has been brought up for so long, and he has never seen this figure, this appearance, this bustling scene in the Yu Palace.
He was smiling and watching in fascination when Yu An tapped his head with a finger.
Yu'an closed his eyes, and several young maids were pressing his legs.
"Go and see if Liu Feng is here."
Agui just went to see one, but Liu Feng hasn't come yet. He only knew that his ancestor invited Mr. Liu to come to admire the moon today. He smiled and said obediently: "Ancestor, the little one went just now, and Mr. Liu is still on the way. I think he knows Ancestor Yaxing invites him, so it’s not good to come empty-handed and go to prepare gifts and show filial piety to our ancestors.”
"Humph..." Yuan laughed in an unclear way: "Yes, I hope he can bring a gift that satisfies me."
The guard ran in from the outer door and held his hands: "Master, Master Liu is here."
Yu'an opened his eyes and waved his hand to the maid to retreat: "Invite him to come in."
After Liu Feng sat down, he picked up his wine glass and toasted Yu An cheerfully.
Yuan smiled, knowing in his heart that he had done it.
Yu'an also raised his glass: "I am an official in the court, and I am very happy to finally meet someone with the same interests. Tonight, Mr. Liu, we will not go home until we are drunk."
"Hahaha..." Liu Feng drained his wine in one gulp: "It's my luck to meet Mr. Yu. I won't come back until I'm drunk!"
"Ha ha ha ha...."
Agui poured the wine for them, and after pouring it here and there, Liu Feng drank quickly, and Agui was busy running without complaining in his heart.
This Liu Feng was just a small official who was noticed by his ancestors this year. He had been making soy sauce for who knows where for many years before this.
He has only managed to get ahead at this young age, but he is still befriended by others. It is not based on his own ability, which shows that he has no ability.
Agui curled his lips, not understanding that his ancestors appreciated such a person so much.
Liu Feng inadvertently blocked it with his hand, and while Agui was distracted, the drink spilled on Liu Feng's sleeves and lapels.
Relying on the fact that he was the most favored person under Yu'an, Agui said calmly: "Oh, look at the look in my eyes. I've been busy all day and my hands and feet are weak. I'm really sorry for offending Mr. Liu."
Agui originally thought that Liu Feng would give him face, since he was here in Yu'an after all, but he was the one who came here first, and in terms of relationship, he was the one who was close to him.
However, to his disappointment, Liu Feng did not say anything, and looked at him expressionlessly.
Agui was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly filled with anger.
Who is this Liu Feng?
He was happily serving Yu'an, inside and outside the palace. When the servant saw him, he didn't warmly call him "President"?
Did Liu Feng think that Yu'an had invited him for a few days and that he would be able to reach the sky in one step?
"Agui, go get the fur handkerchief." Yu'an's voice deepened: "I'll apologize to Mr. Liu again."
Agui was stunned immediately, then his hand shook, and his face reacted quickly: "Ah, yes, yes... look at my memory, go now, go now, Mr. Liu, don't be offended, don't be offended!"
When Agui ducked out, his palms were wet.
Bad, miscalculated!
Agui almost broke his silver teeth, he is one of the last capable people!
Seeing Agui retreating, Yu'an also waved his hand, signaling everyone in the palace to retreat, leaving only him and Liu Feng.
Liu Feng snorted and laughed: "The people under Mr. Yu are quite arrogant."
Yu'an twirled the wine glass and polished it: "My subordinates are not strict in discipline, Mr. Liu is laughing, don't worry."
Yuan put the wine glass back on the table without any hesitation in his eyes.
"It won't be him tomorrow."
Liu Feng tilted his head, shook his neck, and took off the arm block at his shoulders, revealing the black totem.
That is the totem of the Miao people.
He said: "Our king hopes that this time we can get half of the Shunde Palace's commercial bank resources in the south."
Yu An made a move, but still had a calm smile on his face: "That's not what we said at the beginning."
"That was the beginning." Liu Feng picked up the bowl and poured wine. When he came to the Yu Clan Jiuchong City, the thing he was most unaccustomed to was the drinking posture here.
Each one was polite and served in a cup, and it was gone before they could even taste it.
Among the Miao people, drinking from a bowl is necessary.
"We encountered a heavy snowstorm before the Yu Sheng Festival, and the Miao people lost more than half of their cattle, sheep, and food. Now we need more money to repair our houses and land."
Seeing him drinking rudely, Yu An felt extremely cold in his heart.
Encountered a blizzard and suffered huge losses?
Is it possible that it never snowed there in previous years?
It's just an excuse to raise prices.
These Miao people are really as greedy as ever, but Yu'an has no other choice now. Liu Feng helped him kill the eldest son of Shunde Palace, and the flames and salt in the underground secret passage of Shunde Palace were also obtained by the Miao people.
Their purpose was to expose the underground trading ground through the smuggling of flames and salt, frame the case to kill King Shunde, and seize King Shunde's trading house in the south.
The Miao people have most of the initiative in this plan. Now that the matter is not completely over, Yu'an cannot refuse any of their requests.
Yu An smiled kindly: "My transactions with your prince have always been extremely sincere. My friends, I have always responded to your requests. As you just saw, the little Yu man who bumped into you just now , I promise you won’t see him tomorrow, this is my respect for the nobles.”
"Our king has felt your respect." Liu Feng bent down and performed a Miao salute.
"Just half of the trading houses are too many." Yu'an frowned in embarrassment: "Your Miao people are on the battlefield in the north, and most of the trading houses of the Shunde Palace are in the south. From south to north, there is only one grand canal. It is heavily guarded up there, and the amount of goods shipped every year is set, and it needs to be reported to Emperor Yu in detail."
Yu An looked at Liu Feng: "If the volume of shipments suddenly increases sharply, Emperor Yu will definitely notice that our channels and connections on the road have not been established yet. My friend, this is not a wise decision."
Liu Feng lowered his eyes, his eyes dimmed several times, and he looked embarrassed.
Yu'an continued: "Besides, the Yu tribe's most elite Chaoyang army is still stationed in the south. They have troops to monitor the trading houses and land in the south. You Miao people are different in stature from the Yu people, and you don't have wings. If If you want to place your people there, how can you avoid being pursued by the Chaoyang Army?"
When the Chaoyang Army was mentioned, Liu Feng's pupils shrank suddenly.
Chaoyang Army, their nightmare ten years ago.
That was an extremely elite team.
If the Left Branch Army and the Right Branch Army were able to overwhelm the Miao people by their numbers, then the Chaoyang Army, which was only half the size of the Left Army, was able to overwhelm the foreign tribes all over the world by relying on their absolute combat capability of one against a hundred.
However, Liu Feng was not frightened and lost his mind. He narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Then what are Mr. Yu's plans? According to what you haven't said, even if you don't add half of the trading company, wouldn't it be one-third that we agreed on before? Can’t it be fulfilled?”
Liu Feng looked at Yu An warily. The people of the Yu clan were the ones they were most worried about.
Yu'an smiled: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu. I, Yu'an, am cooperating with your king with absolute sincerity. We each get what we need. Since it is cooperation, how can we fail to fulfill our promise? Mr. Liu will give me Who does Yu think he is?"
"One-third of the commercial bank's asset income is exactly what the South needs to supply to Jiuchong City's treasury and the Yu Clan's imperial palace every year. Among them, Jiuchong City's treasury accounts for seven parts and the imperial palace accounts for three parts."
"I promised your king before that I planned to send this part of the assets to Xuancheng in the north of the Yu clan. You will send people to take care of it every month. If you leave other matters aside, Yu can solve it."
Liu Feng rolled his eyes a few times. He actually didn't believe Yu'an. He didn't understand that the Yu clan's supply from the south to the north was not dependent on Yu'an.
Yu'an could see that he didn't believe it: "I have always shown absolute sincerity in cooperating with your king. After all, what we are going to cooperate with next is big business. At the beginning, how can I be stingy to your king? Both parties. Mutual trust is what makes mountains and rivers far and long-lasting.”
Yu An took a sip of wine, blocked the knock on the door, and continued to say to Liu Feng: "But this time, there is really no other way. I hope Mr. Liu can convey my apology to your king and explain to him that I am rich." The integrity of a certain cooperation with the nobles. As an apology, I will make up for all the property you lost during this blizzard. How about that?"
Liu Feng thought for a few times, then he made a determined decision and said: "Okay! Since Mr. Yu is sincerely cooperating with our Miao people, we will not lose our grace, so Mr. Laoyu will have to worry about it. It will also save us the next time." Celebrate the smooth cooperation in advance!”
Liu Feng raised his wine glass, and Yu An smiled with satisfaction: "Master Liu, please!"
Liu Feng heard another knock on the door. He stood up and raised his hands, and gave another Miao salute to Yu An: "Since Mr. Yu has other things to do, I will take my leave first."
Yu'an sent him off: "Master Liu, go slowly."
After Liu Feng left, Aguicai, who had run out in a panic, walked in carefully.
Agui's face was full of smile again: "Ancestor, the man from the east courtyard wants to see you."
Yu'an glanced at him, still looking as calm as before, but Agui was shocked. He didn't see the previous smile in Yu'an's eyes, and his heart grew cold.
Yuan rubbed the ring on his hand: "How long have you been following me?"
Agui shook his hands: "Well... the little one, the little one was brought up by the ancestor just before the Feather Saint Festival. The ancestor was kind-hearted. He saw the little one in the warehouse in March last year and was a little bit tongue-tied, which left an impression in his heart. Then I raised the younger one, who has been reverent in his heart for his ancestors for nearly a year."
What he said was that he had served Yu An for only two months, but he described it as a master-servant relationship for nearly a year.
Yu'an got up and headed to the east courtyard without saying anything else along the way. Agui's heart gradually relaxed and he went to open the door happily, but Yu'an pushed him away and said: "From tomorrow on, where did you come from before? Just go back there.”
Yuan looked at the darkened look on Agui's face and patted his shoulder gently: "Remember, this is a reward for your meritorious service in the past two months."
After saying that, he went straight into the house.
Agui knelt down with a plop. He looked at the moon hanging in the sky and felt so regretful that he wanted to jump off a cliff.
He knew that what awaited him tomorrow would not be the sun.
Yu An walked into the room slowly, and the person who was sitting on the bed suddenly stood up and ran towards Yu An.
Dressed in gorgeous clothes and with hands full of emeralds, who is King Shunde if he is not the richest man in Jiuchong City?
This potential criminal, whom General Qin Qin was searching for all over the city, was hiding quietly in the room of a high-ranking official.
King Shunde hurriedly stepped forward. Ever since he learned that Yuhuang and Qin Qin were investigating his underground trading ground, he had never slept peacefully. At this time, he was disheveled and did not look like a prince at all.
"How is it? Mr. Yu, has Qin Qin taken action?"
"The prince doesn't know something." Yu'an said in a deep tone, shaking his head as if he had a headache: "As soon as Qin Qin took over the case and knew that he might have an affair with the prince, he relied on his own soldiers to kill him without saying a word. The family members and entourage of the prince's house were arrested and put into the imperial examination platform, and even Xiao Si, who was working, was not spared."
"Ah?" King Shunde yelled. The most frightening thing in his life was the underground trading market. He knew that once this happened, under the current rule of Emperor Yu, there would be no chance of escape.
King Shunde hurriedly said: "Then what should we do now? I have two copies of the confidential information in the trading center in the palace. Qin Qin must have searched the house after arresting people. These things..."
"You don't have to worry about this prince."
