Chapter 166

Because the third prince was worried about the floods in the three prefectures, he specially suggested to the emperor that he asked the court to create a new official position, and this official position was specially used for merchants, who could buy it with silver, and the silver would be used for disaster relief.

As long as they are the sons of merchants with official positions, they can take the imperial examination.

There are only five official positions, and one of them costs 7 taels of silver?
purchase!Be sure to buy it first, in order to allow your children to enter the official career, you must buy it as soon as possible!
The news spread like the wind throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, making the big merchants restless.

At the foot of the Son of Heaven is the most prosperous place, capable merchants will open a shop in the capital, and it can be said that there are merchants gathered from all over the world. If the owner is not in the capital, the courageous shopkeepers gritted their teeth and went to the bank to withdraw the bank notes, while the courageous shopkeepers just waited and watched.

At the same time, the news of the bidding for the qualifications of the imperial merchants was also released. Because the auction was to use grain, it was set in two days, so that the merchants had time to raise grain.

The merchants who were greedy for foreign officials but could not raise so much money turned their attention to the qualifications of the imperial merchants and began to go out to raise food.

Because Li Chong was once again shady, he set the reserve price at [-] shi for grain. If he wanted to raise more than [-] shi of grain in just two days, he had to be a big grain merchant.

And this time the imperial business qualifications, one is tea, one is jewelry, and the other is silk.

As a result, merchants engaged in these three businesses approached large grain merchants one after another and began to discuss ways of cooperation.

Ji Fushou also knew the news. When she asked Jing to propose to Li Chong, a foreign official sold 5 taels of silver, and the reserve price of the imperial merchant's auction was 7 shi of grain.When they arrived at Li Chong's place, Wai Langguan sold [-] taels of silver, and the base price of the imperial merchant's auction was [-] shi of grain.

There was a playful smile on the corner of Ji Fushou's lips, "It seems that our Third Prince is a dark-hearted person."

Ji Fushou received news from the well that Li Chong had suggested to Emperor Qi Cheng that Chu Lingjun go to control the water, so he relaxed and watched the bustle of the capital these days quietly.

She thought about it and said, "I don't know what happened to the two enemies of the third prince."

The two enemies of the third prince, one is the eldest prince Li Yang, and the other is the fourth prince Li Ze.

When Li Yang returned to the mansion, he got very angry and smashed all the teacups in sight, causing the servants to hide away, fearing that they would be angered.

But Wang Jian, who is an aide, couldn't hide. There was even a smashed teacup at his feet.

He stood up straight and did not dodge, knowing that if he dodged, it might make Li Yang even more angry.

After all the teacups in the room were dropped, Wang Jian said, "Your Highness, calm down."

Li Yang raised his voice, and cut off Wang Jian's words immediately, "Calm your anger? How did you let Ben Gong calm his anger! Do you know that the third brother is very good this time? Why didn't you come up with such a good plan for Ben Gong?" Woolen cloth!"

Li Yang thought about it with his toes and knew that Li Chong hadn't thought of it himself, so what, it was he who made it anyway, and he deserved the credit.

Wang Jian bears the order of Chi Qiguang, let him assist Li Yang well, it is best for Li Yang to stand out from the crowd among the princes, before Li Chongtiao Chen came out, Li Yang was considered the most popular among the princes It's good, now that Li Chong's momentum has faintly surpassed Li Yang, it's no wonder Li Yang is so angry.

Wang Jian was speechless. After all, even he himself had to admit that he had never thought about setting up an official position for a businessman and selling it to a businessman for a huge amount of money openly and aboveboard.

Seeing that Wang Jian was silent, Li Yang became even more angry, and his face was gloomy, "No matter what, you must not let the third brother show off."

Wang Jian's heart suddenly felt ominous, what Li Yang meant, could it be what he thought?

"Why, didn't Ziyi hear what Ben Gong said?" Li Yang looked at Wang Jian with an unkind expression.

Wang Jian said with difficulty, "Your Highness, please forgive Zi Yi for being dull and not understanding what Your Highness means."

Li Yang flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, "You think of a way to prevent the smooth bidding of the qualifications of Wai Langguan and Huangshang."

A look of anger flashed across Wang Jian's eyes. This man is so hateful, he would rather watch the people of the Three Houses suffer and suffer just to prevent the Third Prince from overshadowing him.

Wang Jian lowered his eyelids, and responded in a low voice, "Ziyi will find a way now."

Li Yang waved his hand impatiently, and Wang Jian backed out.When he walked out of the courtyard, his expression gradually turned cold. The Holy Majesty promised the third prince three days to supervise everything within three days. As long as these three days are delayed, Li Yang has nothing to do.

Besides, he thinks that there is no way to stop all of this. The news has already been released. Most of the big merchants are waiting to buy officials with bank notes. How to stop it?

He doesn't have such a great ability, besides, he can't do this kind of thing like watching the people of the three prefectures die.

If it wasn't for the Lord's order, he really didn't want to serve Li Yang.

Here Wang Jian left angrily, while Li Ze returned to the mansion with a bad look on his face, so the staff asked, "Has Your Highness encountered any embarrassment?"

Li Ze talked about the early court affairs, and when he finished speaking, his expression turned pale, "Third brother can think of such a good plan this time, it is also a blessing for the people of the three prefectures, I hope this disaster relief will go well."

Although he was not happy about Li Chong's endless fame, Li Ze was also happy for the people of the three prefectures.

The staff looked ashamed, "Your Highness, we were useless and failed to help His Highness."

Li Ze waved his hand, "I don't blame you, but this time the third brother can come out on top, so it won't be the case next time."

As long as the third brother is not allowed to find a chance next time, Li Ze believes that he still has a chance.

At the same time, Ji Sibo, who was in Ji's family, also received an appointment from a small official of the Ministry of War.

"Let me escort the food this time to the three prefectures of Yong'an?" Ji Sibo was a little surprised when he got the appointment.

The little official smiled and said: "Yes, my lord is a ranger general, escorting food to the land of the three prefectures is overkill for me, I hope my lord can prepare it as soon as possible, after a few days when the food is collected, I will set off. "

After giving some money to the little official, the little official left happily, and Ji Sibo returned to the main house with the appointment.

At this time, the family members were waiting for him in the hall of Mingjian, and when they saw him coming in, they all asked the Ministry of War why he came.

"The Ministry of War has appointed me to escort the food for this disaster relief to the three prefectures of Yong'an. I will leave in a few days."

Ji Fushou raised his eyebrows slightly, and said decisively: "Take Shang Ji with them, and now we don't know what the disaster is like over there. With Ji and them by your side, you should be safe."

Thinking that both Sibo and Chu Ling were going to the land of the three prefectures, Ji Fushou simply said, "I'll go too
, just follow behind you, if something happens, you can ask Ji Tong to find me. "
