"I've read the letter, what do you think?"
Seeing An Wuyu holding the letter and saying nothing for a long time, Yu Lingyi asked.
He has read everything written in the letter. When he thought about it, there was no hesitation about this matter, so why did he think about it for so long.
"Of course the An family has no doubts. However, this matter also involves the Chen family. I can't make a decision for them." An Wuyu was a little confused.
The Mu family, also known as the Duanmu family, was later divided into two surnames, one was An and the other was Chen. The original name of Julu King was Duanmu Chengan.
Therefore, the surname Chen is also a descendant of King Julu. Duanmuyu did not think of this, so this was the only letter he wrote to Queen Julu.
Chen family?
Only then did Yu Lingyi remember that the descendants of King Julu had two surnames, but he knew that the descendant of Julu that Duanmu Yu wanted was someone who could be used by him, someone who could stir up the world of Dahua, and not just an ordinary hawking stall in the alleyway. Husband, pawn.
"Chen family?" Yu Lingyi thought in confusion, "Isn't the Chen family in decline? I have seen the register of Qianshui City, and there are only four to five hundred households with the surname Chen."
An Wuyu shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Yu only knows one, but not the other." He pointed to the chair next to Yu Lingyi and motioned for him to sit down.
Yu Lingyi also became interested, arranged the chair and sat down, saying: "I would like to hear the details."
"The Chen family has not declined. The Chen family is even more important than the An family in Jue's great cause of the Northern Expedition." An Wuyu said seriously.
"Oh?" Yu Lingyi was surprised and said happily, "Which sect is the Chen family?"
It was such an unexpected surprise to get the An family and another Chen family who was not weaker than the An family. Yu Lingyi couldn't help but smile.
"Haha, the Xu family is not a Jianghu sect." An Wuyu shook his head and smiled.
Yu Lingyi was a little disappointed, and asked again: "It's not the Jianghu sect, is it some important minister of Dahua?"
Thinking of this possibility, his mind was filled with excitement again. If the Chen family produces several powerful ministers, it will naturally be of great use in disrupting the political agenda of Dahua.
"The Chen family is not an official either." An Wuyu replied calmly.
Seeing the disappointment on Yu Lingyi's face, he changed the topic and said seriously: "The Chen family is the richest in the world, and their family business is Tongdui Bank!"
Tongdui Bank!
Who in the world doesn’t know Tongdui Bank?
Slightly larger state capitals rarely have Tonghui banks.
Gold is exchanged for silver, gold is exchanged for jade, gold and silver are exchanged for copper rounds, copper rounds are exchanged for gold and silver, gold and silver banknotes are exchanged, banknotes are exchanged for gold and silver, loose silver is exchanged for official silver, official silver is exchanged for loose silver...
Not only doing business for the imperial court, but also doing business for ordinary people...
Not only throughout the counties and states of Dahua, there are also many semicolons in Jue, Shatuo, and Xianma.
However, no one knew who the owner of Tongdui Bank was. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the Chen family!
Descendants of Julu King, Chen family.
"Bang!" Yu Lingyi smacked it with a palm, almost breaking the desk between the two of them, "Great!"
"Great! Wonderful!" Yu Lingyi shouted one after another. I'm really overjoyed and can't help myself.
The Jue Kingdom began to prepare for war ten years ago, and has achieved great success in raising horses and troops. It can be said that the army is strong and the horses are strong. The reason why it has not gone to war is that on the one hand, the situation in Dahua has not reached the worst point, and more importantly, the military expenditure has not been enough. Enough, but not enough food and grass.
Once the two armies go to war, the outcome is often determined by the supply of military supplies rather than the gap in combat power.
If the military expenditure is sufficient, all soldiers will be able to wear armor, all horses will be equipped with good saddles, swords and guns will be sharp, and arrows will be sufficient.
If the military expenditure is sufficient, eight people can build a cauldron, which will provide them with three meals a day and provide them with meat in time of war.
If the military expenditure is sufficient, soldiers, regardless of high or low, can camp without sleeping in the open. They can walk with horned boots so that they can sleep in winter.
If the military expenditure is sufficient, the wounded generals can be treated, the sick can be cared for, the soldiers who die in battle can receive generous pensions, and the elderly and orphans can be supported.
That was what Xu Qianmeng said to Yu Lingyi when the two were drinking.
I remember that that day, Xu Qianmeng drank a lot, talked a lot, and finally cried bitterly at his desk.
The two of them drank equally, and they had been fighting for more than ten years without a winner. This was the first time Xu Qianmeng lost to him.
The difficulty of the country lies in poverty. The country is poor, the people are poor, and the land is poor.
The land in southern Xinjiang is more rocky, sandy and less muddy. The soil is thin and barren, and the products are naturally not abundant.
More than three hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Duanmu clan were defeated and even Xia Ruren was unwilling to send troops to pursue them.
It was precisely because of the thalassemia in Jue that the Duanmu family never forgot about it and wanted to return to their homeland.
The people's livelihood difficulties in Dahua are caused by man-made disasters, all kinds of man-made disasters. The people's livelihood in Jue country is difficult, but it is the fate of the people. Although everyone has tried their best, there is still nothing they can do.
Xu Qianmeng and Duanmu Ke were both talented. However, despite ten years of efforts, they could not raise enough military expenses for a year's war.
"Where is the head of the Chen family?" Yu Lingyi asked anxiously.
As An Wuyu said, the Chen family is indeed more important than the An family in the great cause of Jue's northern expedition.
"The Chen family is in Zhuzhou, where Fanxi County is located. It's about four to six hundred miles away." An Wuyu replied, "Today is too late. I will take you to Zhuzhou to find Chen Jinbei early tomorrow morning."
"Chen Jinbei?" Yu Lingyi asked, somewhat confused.
An Wuyu explained: "The person in charge of the Chen family is Chen Jinbei."
"Oh, I understand." Yu Lingyi nodded clearly and asked with a smile, "You must be familiar with the road, right?"
As both descendants of the Duanmu family, there is no reason why they should not be close to each other.
"Haha, in these years, I have met almost two guests, one is Chen Jinbei and the other is Xu Xiaoyu." An Wuyu said with a smile.
If the guest hadn't told him about Yu Lingyi's martial arts, he wouldn't have wanted to see the guest today. Fortunately, with the blessing of our ancestors, we finally did not miss this God-given opportunity.
"Xu Xiaoyu?" Yu Lingyi felt a sense of déjà vu and thought of a person, so she asked, "What is his relationship with Xu Xiaoyi?"
He naturally knew that among the Dahua masters there was Xu Xiaoyi, who ranked third after Xuan Yue and Yi Qilin. Although I have never heard of a person like Xu Xiaoyu in the world, I can guess from the name alone that this person must be related to Xu Xiaoyi.
An Wuyu replied seriously: "Everyone in the world knows that the number one master of the Xu family is Xu Xiaoyi, and the head of the family is his second brother Xu Xiaoshi." He paused, looked at Yu Lingyi and smiled, "but few people know , the person who is really in charge of the Xu family is their eldest brother - Xu Xiaoyu."
If the words are not surprising, then I will die.
Old people in the world may know that among the three brothers of the Xu family, Xu Xiaoyu is much older than the two younger brothers, and he became famous all over the world before he was forty years old. However, he seemed to have suddenly lived a secluded life. He had been out of touch with worldly affairs for thirty years, so naturally no one in the world remembered him. Many people even suspected that he was dead.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xiaoyu, who had not been out of the world for thirty years, was actually the real helmsman of the Xu family!
Just as Yu Lingyi's thoughts were racing, An Wuyu said something else that startled him: "Besides, I guess this Xu family is the Queen of Leiyang you are looking for."
