retaliate

Chapter 756

Northern Xinjiang in autumn is full of fruit.

In order to prevent the horse thieves and the Northern Liao army from destroying the crops, Yang Xuan ordered all the troops to attack in turn.

"Tian Xiao returns to Chang'an, maybe His Majesty will cover it up, but I want to tell you, from this year onwards, we must prepare for hardship."

In the lobby, Yang Xuan sat on his knees, full of heroic spirit.

"Food is the most important thing! Whether it is a civil servant or a general, this matter is your top priority in the near future. Anyone who slackens and causes damage to the crops will be severely punished!"

"Yes!"

Civil and military officials bowed their heads.

In an instant, Yang Xuan felt that he had become a god, looking down on the human world in mid-air.

That kind of floating, the feeling that the whole person seems to be inflated, is very beautiful.

I'm not an inflatable man... He warned himself, and then let the crowd disperse.

Liu Qing started to get busy.

Cough!

Boss Yang took a sip of tea, "I'll go out and do some inspection!"

Liu Qing said dissatisfied, "How long will you be back?"

Yang Xuan said: "One hour faster, slower...it's hard to say."

I'm not lazy, it's just that I, as the master, naturally can't be busy with paperwork, that's the job of my subordinates, I have to learn to delegate power!

Yang Xuan found the reason, and he was freed from some uneasiness and guilt.

"Second brother, second child!"

"It's here!"

Yang Xuan looked up and saw Wang Lao Er lying on the roof of the lobby, he couldn't help but smoke from his nostrils, "Is there no place for you to sleep or what? Come down!"

Wang Laoer slid down the tiles, and when he reached the edge, he rolled over and landed firmly.

"Lang Jun, it's windy and refreshing up there, next time you go up there and try."

The second child is a kind-hearted person, and he can never forget the boss when good things happen.

"Do you think it's okay for me to lie on it?"

The owner of Northern Xinjiang is lying on the tiles in the lobby basking in the sun, catching lice, and if word spreads, he doesn't have to be a human being.

"Sure!" Wang Lao Er took out a piece of jerky, "As long as you like it, what else do others care about me?"

This baby!

The old thief came out from nowhere, and said with a smile, "Where is Lang Jun going?"

"Go out for a walk."

Yang Xuan ran wildly in the village since he was a child, and went hunting in Dongyu Mountain when he was older, and he never stopped.He likes to walk and doesn't like to sit somewhere for a long time.

According to the older generation in the village, this is his hard work.

Emperor, isn't it just hard work?

Yang Xuan smiled.

Before going out of the gate, I ran into Cao Ying.

"I have seen Lang Jun."

Cao Ying looked a little tired, "Sun Ying made a decision, the old man waited until Tian Xiao's men went, and heard behind the screen that Sun Ying refused to oppose Mr. Lang..."

"it is good!"

Yang Xuan was overjoyed.

With Fengzhou in his hands, together with Chenzhou and Taoxian County, he can be regarded as initially controlling northern Xinjiang.

Then came deep plowing.

"Go to rest first, and then hold a banquet to celebrate in the evening."

Cao Ying accepted with a smile, and then went to Yang's house.

"Old Cao is here."

The guards were very kind to see him.

After bathing and changing clothes, after eating a piece of cake, Cao Ying said solemnly: "Go to the backyard and report, and say that the old man is here to see Mr. Xiao Lang."

A maid went to the backyard to find Zhang Siniang, and Zhang Siniang went to spread the word.

"Lady, Mr. Cao is here, and he said please see Mr. Xiao Lang."

Aunt Guan burst out laughing, "Oh! How old is Mr. Xiao Lang, and he is so serious to see you, it's ridiculous."

But Zhou Ning said seriously: "Change clothes for Ah Liang and let Yi Niang send them out."

Aunt Guan: "..."

The young master changed into new clothes, Yi Niang hugged him, and suddenly froze for a moment.

Zhou Ning knew that she probably thought of the time when she held Yang Xuan back then.

In the front yard, Cao Ying was waiting.

"Meet Mr. Xiao Lang!"

Cao Ying saluted.

"it is good!"

Ah Liang is very angry, since he learned to speak, the word he has said the most is good.

"Does Mr. Xiao Lang know the answer? He really is very talented!"

Cao Ying was ecstatic.

He looked at A Liang carefully, "The innate majesty is indeed Lang Jun's child."

He looked at A Liang's hand again, "Hands are generous, this is Lord Ren."

Yiniang frowned, "Is it over?"

Cao Ying smiled dryly, "I haven't seen Mr. Xiao Lang for a long time, and I miss you so much."

"Zheng Wuniang!"

Yiniang called Zheng Wuniang in and asked her to carry Ah Liang back to the backyard.

The room fell silent.

"Mr. Lang has taken control of Northern Xinjiang. I got very drunk in Fengzhou, kowtowed in the direction of Gongling, and cried for half a night." Cao Ying pointed to the bags under her eyes.

"Liao Jin is still here, but not for long." When Yiniang mentioned Liao Jin, her expression was indifferent.

"His body..."

"The waist is getting weaker and weaker, and now I can't even think about it."

"it is good!"

The two are elders beside Yang Xuan, in order to fight against the great cause, let alone Liao Jin, even Huang Chunhui can sacrifice.

"Lang Jun is surrounded by a lot of talents now."

"What are you probing for?"

"Hehe!" Cao Ying said with a dry smile, "Han Ji is resourceful, and now all the officials in northern Xinjiang are under the command of Mr. Lang, old man, I feel a little lost."

"You are honest."

"The old man is panicking, but he can't tell anyone. Only you know the old man's temperament. Hey! In Chenzhou, the old man has Lu Qiang, I want to come to Tao County..."

"Stop!" Yiniang put the water glass on the table, "Chenzhou is the foundation of the lord, the land of dragon prosperity, only the confidant can control it. Lu Qiang has his heart for the lord, but after all, he can't believe it. Only you !"

"Zhen Siwen is not bad either, he is loyal to Mr. Lang."

"Zhen Siwen is good, but his qualifications are not interesting."

"You also asked about these things in the back house?" Cao Ying was a little curious, "It's over! It's not an exaggeration to say that you are overstepping."

Yiniang said indifferently: "There are many things that don't need to be asked, and can be seen from some clues.

Mr. Lang rewarded Zhen Siwen with pen, ink, paper and inkstone. This is what is expected of him, let him study hard... That is to say, Mr. Lang will not promote him recently.and also……"

"Stop talking." Cao Ying's old face was burning hot, "I'm just complaining."

"Old Cao, others can complain, but you and I can't!" Yiniang warned, "Once you get used to complaining, there will be a gap between you and Mr. Lang. Be careful that you will not be safe at the end of the day."

"The old man knows." After Cao Ying said those words, her mood improved a lot.

"Rest now! The gentleman will host a banquet for you later." Yi Niang stood up, "Think about it for yourself, who did the gentleman host the banquet for? Han Ji? Or Lu Qiang, or Liu Qing. People, what matters is contentment !"

Yiniang went out, then suddenly turned around, "I won't hide this matter from Mr. Lang."

In her eyes, except for her husband, everyone else in this world is a supporting role.

A supporting role should have the consciousness of a supporting role!
Cao Ying chuckled, "I told you this, I didn't intend to hide it from you."

Yiniang asked about the door outside the main gate, and then went to the prefecture to inquire about the door. When she learned that Yang Xuan was going to the market, she didn't go looking for him, so she waited at the side door of the Jiedu envoy's mansion.

She is gradually hiding herself, just like she was in the palace back then, standing in a remote place, watching those people go crazy for fame and fortune.

You can be crazy, but don't go crazy to Mr. Lang, otherwise...

……

Although Tao County did not offer preferential conditions for doing business like Lin'an did, but with the victory of the war, businessmen still poured in.

There is a lot of excitement in the city.

Yang Xuan arrived at the market and inspected it all the way.

The businessmen were delighted to see him, and asked when they could have preferential terms.

"Peach County is not Lin'an."

This is the political center and military center of northern Xinjiang, and it would be too bloated to be a commercial center.And it will weaken Chenzhou's status.

As the lord of Northern Border, he has more and more things to weigh.Business is just a small matter, what is more important is power.

Leaving Cao Ying in Chenzhou, one is to stare at his lair, and the other is that he needs to make a gesture.

Since taking charge of Beijiang, the entire Beijiang officialdom has been watching him, waiting for him to make a big move.

But the one who waited was motionless.

Not surprised?

Surprised or not?

Yang Xuan used such a trick to directly destroy the popularity of those who were waiting to make a fuss.

It also reassures people.

The boss is not going to clean up, so let's work with peace of mind!
This is the signal he sent.

It works!
It is said that even Liao Jin was surprised by his calmness after hearing the news.

"Lang Jun!"

Jielong hurriedly chased after him.

"What's the matter?"

Jielong approached and said in a low voice: "A merchant came, named Yelushu, a wealthy merchant from Kunzhou. Just now when he entered the city, he took the initiative to find our people, and said that there is a big deal, and asked if he would like to do it."

Big deal... Yang Xuan asked, "Where are people?"

"The lady is talking to him, and is about to go to Jiedushi's mansion through the side door."

If it's really a big business, if people see this person entering through the gate of Jiedushi's mansion, things will go bad.

"appropriate!"

Yang Xuan's inspection is over.

……

Yiniang was at the side door, and there was someone doing business nearby.

"How do you sell this fruit?" Seeing that the fruit was fresh, Yiniang was going to buy some back.

The peddler said, "One penny and three catties."

"The price is right, maybe try one?"

"Just taste it, it doesn't cost money if it's not sweet."

Yiniang tasted one and thought it tasted good, "I bought all of this basket."

The peddler was overjoyed, and sold the bamboo basket to her at a discounted price, and refused to leave when it was over.

Yi Niang carried the bamboo basket, "Is there anything else?"

The peddler smiled, "Where is your home?"

"Why do you ask this?" Yiniang glanced at him.

"Next time there are good fruits, I'll send them to my house!"

The merchant is indeed something that climbs along the pole. No wonder he was quite dissatisfied with the merchant when His Majesty was there... Yiniang shook her head, "No need."

He Lianyan and a few men came down.

A middle-aged man followed behind.

"Eat a fruit."

Yi Niang handed a fruit to Helianyan, and gave another to Yelushu... It is not a small matter for someone who can be brought here by Helianyan, so let me give a fruit first.

Ye Lushu glanced at her and shook his head.

Thinking that he has spent so many years in extravagance, how can he see this kind of fruit in his eyes... If he wants to eat it, he has to peel it, and then get some caramelized water to dip it in and eat it.

So eat, vulgar!

But what he didn't know was that in the eyes of Yang Xuanyiniang and others, his way of eating was a standard nouveau riche.

"Your Majesty is here."

Ru'an also got a fruit, and said it was sweet while gnawing on it.

Yiniang knew that it was hard to talk about Cao Ying now, so she carried the bamboo basket and prepared to go back.

As soon as she exerted force, her shoulders ached unbearably, and she couldn't help frowning.

When Ye Lvshu saw Yang Xuan, he smiled and greeted him without asking.

"What are you doing?"

Yang Xuan stepped up quickly, took the bamboo basket, and complained: "You should take two people with you when you go out."

Yiniang smiled and said, "I've done a lot of sewing recently, and my shoulders are sore, it will be fine after a while."

"You have periarthritis of the shoulder, it will be very troublesome if you don't fix it." Yang Xuan said: "Stop the needlework first, I will find a way to cure the periarthritis of the shoulder first."

"How can I stop!" Yiniang was making clothes for Ah Liang, doing it whenever she had nothing to do.

"Sharpening a knife is not the same as chopping firewood." Yang Xuan turned around, "Wuda, take the fruit back."

Yang Xuan cared so much about this woman, but the old man was wrong earlier...Ye Lvshu stepped forward, "Hey! This fruit smells delicious, maybe a villain can eat one?"

Yiniang looked at him, shook her head, "It's gone."

Yang Xuan smiled and didn't care.

Yelushu was embarrassed, and then followed in.

Naturally, he will not go to the lobby, but in an ordinary value room.

There was not a single piece of paper in it, and nothing but a table and a mat.

Yang Xuan sat down, He Lianyan stood behind him, leaned over, and whispered in his ear: "It's a wealthy businessman from Kunzhou, sure."

Yelushu sat at the bottom.

He smiled and said: "The villain has long heard of the reputation of the Deputy Envoy, and has always wanted to meet him, but he has never had the chance. When I saw him today, he is indeed very majestic and heroic, which is admirable."

My surname is not Zhou...Yang Xuan looked at him, "Kunzhou is a good place."

Neizhou is in front of Taoxian County, and Kunzhou is in front left.

Ye Lvshu said politely, he thought Yang Xuan would take the initiative to ask him why he came, but Yang Xuan picked up the teacup and was lukewarm.

He looked as if he had something to say quickly, and if he had nothing to do, he hurried away.

Only then did he realize that this was not an official from Northern Liao who had been bribed by him, but the lord of northern border who had just taken charge of northern border.

There is something wrong with the attitude of the old man.

Ye Lushu smiled apologetically and said, "Many businessmen have been asking me this year, wanting to buy grain. Even cloth merchants are the same. I was curious, so I asked them, saying that Deputy Envoy Yang of Beijiang is buying grain?"

Yang Xuan glanced at him and nodded slightly.

In fact, Northern Xinjiang has been purchasing grain, starting with the food war between Zhou Ning and the northern Xinjiang tycoon, and it has never stopped.

Grain inside Datang, buy!
The food smuggled by the merchants of Daliao, buy it!
Northern Xinjiang is like a vortex, frantically buying food.

Yang Xuan said, just buy it!

If there is no money, he will pay the bill if he pawns himself.

This is of course a joke, but Yang Xuan has not received his salary for a long time.

Take all the money to buy food.

Of course he didn't burn too much money.

When he was planning to tear himself apart with Chang'an, Yang Xuan predicted that Chang'an would use food to pinch Beijiang's throat in the future.

There is no food, let alone Deputy Envoy Yang, even if Huang Chunhui comes back, it won't work.

Therefore, he used the contradiction between Zhou Ning and the tyrants as an excuse to purchase a large number of grains and store grains for the people in large quantities.

He acted very early, and now he has stockpiled a large amount of food.

There is a lot of food, but there are more soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang.

Ye Lvshu was sure, "There is a lot of food at the villain's place. I don't know if the deputy envoy has money to buy it?"

It seems that this person has already noticed some situations in northern Xinjiang.

Yang Xuan said: "On the first day I took over Beijiang, I told the civil and military officials of Beijiang that trustworthiness is the first priority! Even if the Jiedu envoy's mansion is taken over, the money that should be given will not be less!"

"Okay, have fun!"

Yelushu was secretly delighted.

"How many?" Yang Xuan asked.

"A lot, a lot can make the deputy envoy happy." Ye Lvshu said slyly: "However, the villain needs to see the money first."

"It's easy to say." Yang Xuan nodded, "Yan!"

"exist!"

"Take him to see."

"Yes!"

Yang Xuan looked at Ye Lushu with complicated eyes.

Jiang He'er asked, "What is Mr. Lang looking at?"

"A Northern Liao moth!"
