Invincible son

Chapter 962 961 [Knowing the original mind]

"I have a question in my mind."

When Deng Zai left in a hurry, Liu Xian didn't immediately inquire about Pei Yue's plan, but changed the subject with a sincere expression, as if he was not curious about the situation of the second prince next.

I just don't know whether he can really not be happy with things and not sad with himself, or whether he has absolute trust in Pei Yue's ability.

No matter what the possibility is, it is enough to show that the First Prince has undergone a huge change compared to before.

Pei Yue got up to help the other party refill tea, and said with a gentle expression, "Please, Your Highness."

Liu Xian owed his thanks, and then carefully said: "The day before yesterday you sold the 85 branches of Xiangyun, and you only left less than 1% of the branches, but since the Shouyangshan mine is always in your hands, you don't have to worry about it. There is a situation where doves occupy the magpie's nest. But Jingdu Qinyuan is different. If the shares you sold are taken over by the same person, if he owns more shares than you, won't this No. [-] garden in Kyoto change hands? "

Pei Yue looked at the eldest prince quietly, the astonishment in his eyes was evident.

Seeing this, Liu Xian said unconfidently: "I'm just talking casually, don't laugh at the inappropriate things."

"Your Highness's eyes are getting more and more fierce." Pei Yue smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Your Highness, do you know how many shares I sold today?"

Pei Yue clicked to stop, shook his head and said: "Your Highness, don't look at me like this, it will make me wrongly judge myself. Actually, I don't have any grand ideas, I just feel that I have power and capital now , I don’t dare to hope to help the people, at least I can do some practical things.”

Pei Yue looked carefully and saw that the concern in his eyes did not seem to be fake, so he smiled and said: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. If there is such a day, I can only borrow some money from Your Highness, and His Highness can't turn me away at that time." outside."

Pei Yue suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and said slowly: "Your Highness, in fact, to be fair, the imperial court has done its best. Both His Majesty and most of the ministers in the imperial court are trying to find ways to make the people's lives better. I am deeply favored by the emperor. , I also have a bit of a bad reputation among the people, so I want to do something for those people. I am not afraid of His Highness's jokes, I often have a childish thought, that is, I have come to this world with great difficulty, and I can't do anything but earn money Other than that, I only think about my wife and children warming up on the kang."

But Liu Xian wanted to come now, but he felt like a huge stone was pressing on his heart, and he felt difficult to breathe.

He shrugged, spread his hands and said, "I'm the head coach of the Beijing camp now, what do you want to do to find out other people's secrets?"

Liu Xian stared at him blankly, thoughts agitated in his mind, and after a long time he said with emotion: "No wonder... no wonder Father regards you as a minister, and I am not as good as you."

Pei Yue then elaborated: "A few years ago, Liu Fei or the second prince bewitched those noble mansions and wanted to sell their own shares. I took them all back according to the regulations. In short, since then I have A total of 430% of the shares in Jingdu Qinyuan are owned, and [-]% of the shares are on the shelves today, or [-] shares."

A memory appeared in Pei Yue's mind.

Liu Xian quickly figured out the key point here, and couldn't help but slightly startled: "That is to say, you only have [-]% of the shares in your hand now? Are you not afraid of the situation I speculated earlier? Pei Yue, this Qinyuan is yours. Its meaning is not only to make money, but also to allow you to have a very flexible news channel in the capital."

Pei Yue couldn't help laughing and said: "Your Highness, this question is too difficult. For thousands of years, countless sages have spent their entire lives unable to find the answer. How can someone like me who has not read a few books answer you? My thoughts are actually very Simple, let the Xiangyun ship try first in Lingzhou, and at the same time spread it in the southern border, sell some goods that the common people need at a low price, and assist the court when necessary."

One of the most important reasons for Xiangyun to jump out of Kyoto to deploy the world is to penetrate into every aspect of the main beam, and cast a tough giant net from point to surface, which will increase Pei Yue's weight against the imperial power.Maybe in the near future, Mr. Xi will train five thousand elite soldiers for him, or maybe in a sunny afternoon, the killer weapon that he saw and heard in his previous life will truly come to this old and young world.

However, this time Pei Yue did not give up, with a gentle smile in his eyes: "Your Highness, the reason why I want to hold the Shouyang Mountain Mine firmly in my hand is because briquette has become a necessity for the people of Kyoto. At least in the past few years, I have been worried about handing it over to others. The situation in Qinyuan is different. Its existence or disappearance will not affect the lives of the people. At most, it is just a chat after dinner. What difference does it make if it is in my hands or in someone else's hands?"

Not long after he entered Qinzhou with the mission and the Beiwei camp last summer, he had just left Zhangde Mansion when he received news from Tang Linfen that 37 people in that city starved to death the night before.

Liu Xian picked up the teacup and shook his head.

It's not that he can't let go of his airs and ask questions, but after these years of contact, he already knows that Pei Yue's determination is extremely tenacious. If he doesn't want to tell the whole story, even if he begs, he won't get a real answer.

These words are too straightforward, but also with extremely frank sincerity, as if the warm spring breeze in March is blowing on the face, people can't help but feel close.

Liu Xian was in awe and nodded solemnly.

Most of the time there are only a few crosses.

Liu Xian's expression gradually became dignified.

Liu Xian has never left the capital, so naturally he has never seen the real world.

Liu Xian only felt itchy and unbearable, this guy looked confident, but he refused to tell the whole truth.

He looked at Pei Yue, who had a calm expression on the opposite side, and through the clear eyes of this young dignitary, he gradually felt ashamed for some reason.

"It's just the truth." Pei Yue took a sip of tea and continued: "I just want to exchange them for enough capital to open the Xiangyun number all over Daliang Prefecture. On the one hand, it can be regarded as leaving some foundation for future generations. It is to try to do something practical, at least try to avoid the tragic situation after the severe drought in Qinzhou and other places last year."

When Pei Yue said these words, he didn't feel any guilt in his heart.

Liu Xian smiled wryly, "You really can't stop talking."

Pei Yue said quietly: "Your Highness, do you know what it's like to be starved to death alone?"

Famine, flood, drought, war.

Liu Xian nodded slightly, with hope in his eyes, and asked: "How to do this?"

Every year in the coldest winter, his bedroom is still as warm as spring, and he has no chance to go to the streets and alleys of Kyoto to see the poor people and see what kind of life they live.But he has read a lot of history books, and he remembers that besides the rich and colorful pages of the emperors and generals, there are always a few descriptions about all living beings in the corner.

Liu Xian said softly: "Just like what you did in Qinzhou last year, selling grain at low prices without asking for profits, successfully defeated those grain merchants who were hoarding and kept countless people in Qinzhou alive."

Pei Yue smiled and said: "Your Highness, don't misunderstand me. I didn't intend to deliberately act in front of you. To be honest, I thought about this when I was planning to build Xiangyun and Qinyuan, so I didn't plan to be in the capital at all. Establish a huge power, after all, I have never had the idea of ​​rebellion, why bother to attract people's suspicion and constant criticism?"

The complexity of Qinyuan's shareholding structure is definitely not comparable to that of Pei Yue's previous company. Before he came back from the southern border, he himself owned half of the shares, Gongzhong accounted for half, and Gu Zhen, Pei Ning, Shen Danmo and others accounted for [-]% in total. Ten shares, and the remaining [-]% of the shares were all sold.

Even so, this does not conflict with what Pei Yue said.

He respected that forerunner named Lin Qingyuan very much, and also admired that strange woman named Chen Qingchen.

He can understand the reason why Mr. Xi is disheartened and retreats to the world of mortals, and also understands Mo Moyun's difficulties in bearing the burden of humiliation and considering the overall situation.

But he didn't want to go back the way they had gone.
