Ning Xun met Ning Fan's sharp gaze with a calm and open expression. It seemed that he was not being conceited, but showing sincerity.
Lao Liu was also extremely uneasy. He shouldn't have come to the capital this time!
Now, he has been targeted by the cheap second brother. Based on his understanding of this Yong Wang brother, he is not a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. On the contrary, the second emperor brother has a very principled bottom line.
Therefore, he decided to show off directly!
"There is no need to leave it to me. However, I want to remind you, brother, whether it is Xun'an or Huainan, it is the territory of Dayu. No matter which family's soldiers or generals are ours, they are ours." House's."
"Do you understand it?"
"Second brother, don't worry, Ning Xun has a sense of discretion!"
"Um!"
Ning Fan smiled, with a hint of joking in his expression: "Do you want to sit on the Dragon Throne?"
"Second brother!"
A look of panic appeared on Ning Xun's face, and he knelt down with a thud: "I have absolutely no wrong intentions, second brother, please take a closer look!"
"Go out!"
Ning Fan's face showed a bit of disdain, and he said lightly: "I just said that from now on, Dayu's court will be handed over to you, and you will have full authority to handle domestic and foreign affairs!"
"Second brother, you absolutely must not do this!"
"You are pushing my little brother onto the fire pit to roast him!"
"Besides, my father..."
Ning Xun was interrupted by Ning Fan who stretched out his hand and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. There is no need to worry too much. I will pave the way for you. Your role is to maintain the peace and stability during the period when I leave the capital." The court is stable!”
"Is it possible?"
"Second brother is leaving Beijing?"
"Not bad!" Ning Fan nodded, with a hint of depth in his eyes: "The situation in Dali is not optimistic. Now I, Dayu, am not ready to confront Dayan directly, so I have to go there in person. Take a trip to Dali!"
"However, the eldest brother Huang should be back!"
"Brother Prince Sheng?"
Ning Xun's face was full of shock. Ning Fan nodded slightly and nodded: "With him in charge, this king can be free from worries. However, you still need to be in charge in front of others and behind others."
"Um!"
Ning Xun nodded with a heavy face. He didn't understand what the cheap second brother was thinking.
In a sense, they are all competitors, but now, the second brother has personally pushed him to the front?
"Okay, let's go down and get ready!"
"yes!"
Guo Jia and Jia Xu listened to the conversation between the two brothers and did not interrupt. Now that Ning Xun left, Jia Xu said calmly: "My lord, according to the news from Heibingtai, King Xun'an has at least 50,000 elite soldiers under his command!"
"as I thought!"
Ning Fan's face showed a look that should be so, and he said softly: "If this king hadn't come out of nowhere, I'm afraid no one would be able to stop Lao Liu in the final battle for the crown prince!"
"However, he is a smart man, aware of current affairs and understanding of propriety. If he uses it well, he can be regarded as his right-hand man!"
"My lord is wise!"
"Stop being so talkative. Is Shen Wansan back?"
"Here we go, just arrived in the capital!"
"Tell him to come over to me quickly."
A wry smile appeared on Jia Xu's face: "My lord, Director Shen is now the busiest person in Huainan. Not only does the Chamber of Commerce have a lot of matters that need to be resolved urgently, but our subsidiaries are also expanding wildly. During this time, Song Dynasty banks have blossomed everywhere."
"Our flags are everywhere!"
"Um!"
Ning Fan smiled, with a somewhat satisfied look on his face: "So, Fatty Shen can be considered the number one contributor to our Prince Yong's Mansion?"
"God of Wealth!"
Guo Jia grinned, with a somewhat lewd smile on his face: "I'll ask Boss Shen for a few taels of silver later, and go to Fengxiang Tower to drink wine!"
"Your Highness, Shen Wansan wants to see you!"
"Let it in!"
"yes!"
Not long after, Shen Wansan came to Ning Fan. His chubby body and fat cheeks looked a bit cute.
Perhaps this has always been the case. For fat people, the boundary between cute and disgusting is the gap between money bags.
In any case, in Ning Fan's eyes, Lord Shen Caishen is cute.
"Your Highness!"
"Okay, you are so fat, I'm afraid you won't be able to get up if you kneel down."
"hey-hey!"
Shen Wansan smiled stupidly, and then said with a sad face: "Sir, why are you calling me here in such a hurry?"
"Um!"
Ning Fan nodded and said softly: "There is indeed something that you need to do!"
"Your Highness, please give me your instructions!"
"First, open up the trade route with the Nanman, use Huainan as the transit station, and sell Dayu's goods to the Nanman, Guanshan!"
"Secondly, you send a group of elite soldiers and generals to Da Yan to lay out their plans."
Shen Wansan frowned slightly and said softly: "Your Highness, it is not difficult to trade with the Southern Barbarians. Now that our Daqin Commercial Bank is spread all over the world, it is not difficult, but what about the Southern Barbarians and Guanshan?"
"You don't need to worry about this matter. I will communicate with Guanshan and Nanman in advance!"
"That's good!"
"As for sending people to Da Yan, what do you mean?"
"Sooner or later, there will be a war between Dayu and Dayan. However, the war does not necessarily have to involve fighting and killing. You send people to Dayan to vigorously develop business, expand grain stores, and secretly support officials!"
"When the time comes, I will have another important use for you!"
"Um!"
Shen Wansan seemed to have thought of something, nodded heavily, then looked at Ning Fan and said: "Your Highness, the court is short of money and food now?"
"How did you know?"
"hey-hey!"
"I heard that the imperial court was issuing treasury bonds on a large scale a few days ago, so I found a few businessmen to buy a million taels of silver for us!"
"What!"
Ning Fan stood up suddenly and looked at Fatty Shen who looked very cute no matter how cute he looked. Guo Jia and Jia Xu on the side also slapped their foreheads and were speechless for a long time.
"What...what happened?"
"Nothing..." Ning Fan said weakly: "On behalf of the imperial court and the royal family, I would like to thank you for your outstanding contributions to Dayu!"
"I didn't expect that the master would trap one of his own people in this trap!"
"Hahaha!"
Guo Jia finally couldn't help but laugh. Shen Wansan understood instantly and looked at Ning Fan: "Your Highness...this..."
"It doesn't matter!"
"Tell me, how is the development of the business bank recently?"
"Um!"
Shen Wansan did not hesitate, but said brightly: "Lord, the total assets of my trading companies now exceed eight million taels, and the food is piled up like a mountain!"
"Forehead!"
Ning Fan was stunned for a moment and immediately ordered: "Instruct Chen Gong and Di Renjie to continue to expand their troops!"
"promise!"
"Damn, he's so rich!"
"Hey, Your Highness, my subordinate came to Beijing this time and brought you a little surprise!"
"oh?"
Ning Fan looked suspicious, and saw Shen Wansan approaching Ning Fan's ear: "The beauties from the Western Regions who spent a lot of money to transfer from the Western Regions are all young girls!"
