My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 36 Big Discount

Chapter 36 Big Discount
"Silver...lots and lots of silver." This was what the officials were thinking about at the same time.

Especially the officials from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs, their eyes gleamed as they looked at the large carts that rattled the bluestone slabs.

A bold official touched a colleague on the side and said: "Brother Li... there are so many big cars, are they all filled with money?"

"Nonsense, if it's not silver, it must be stone."

"Brother Li, with so much money, your household department is going to get rich."

The official from the Ministry of Household Affairs smoothed his beard and pretended to be reserved: "How can you get rich? It's not like you don't know. Our Ministry of Household Affairs has been so poor that we don't even want to stay longer. Now that we have all this money, we can finally make a fortune." This can relieve an urgent need.”

"its not right."

Someone suddenly pointed at the team and shouted: "Although those prison cars went to the Ministry of Punishment, why did those silver cars go not to your Ministry of Husbandry, but to Chengtianmen, which is the imperial palace?"

"not good!"

The hand that the Ministry of Household official was stroking his beard suddenly trembled, and he felt a stinging pain. He was so excited that three of his beards that he usually cherished were pulled off.

He didn't have time to feel sorry for his beard and ran back: "No, these silver cars are not sent to the Ministry of Revenue, but to His Majesty's inner treasury."

Of course, this household official is not the only smart person. More and more people are also aware of this problem. Suddenly, the city's yamen begins to boil...

Just when the officials were in a rage, the convoy that had passed Chengtian Gate and Duanmen began to turn right and bypassed Donghua Gate until it reached the Neifu supply warehouse, commonly known as the Neiku.

Dai Quan had already been waiting at the entrance of the inner treasury with a group of fans dressed in black clothes and white hats, with long knives on their waists.

Looking at the dozens of large cars approaching slowly, Dai Quan's eyes narrowed with a smile.

He took the initiative to step forward, cupped his hands to Feng Tang, and said with a smile: "General Feng has achieved a complete victory in suppressing bandits this time, and he has also captured so much silver for the imperial court and His Majesty. He has made great contributions."

Feng Tang waved his hand, "General Manager Dai has given too much praise, Feng really doesn't dare to take credit.

The person responsible for suppressing the bandits this time was Captain Jia Yujia. After wiping out the bandits in Erlong Mountain, he captured Qi Jianhui and others with lightning speed, and raided the garrison all night long.

When I rushed to Changping Mansion, all I could do was check for his mistakes and fill in the gaps. I really didn't dare to ask for such a greedy job. "

After listening to Feng Tang's words, a flash of surprise flashed in Dai Quan's eyes, and then he looked at Jia Yu. After looking at it, he smiled and said: "No wonder the ancients said that since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. Mr. Jia is indeed worthy of being a young man." Because of these three words."

Jia Yu cupped her hands and said sincerely: "I don't deserve the praise from Manager Dai. I was just lucky and caught a bunch of mice.

Without the arbitrariness of His Majesty's Sacred Heart and Master Feng's strategizing, even the power of the lower officials would be of no use.

It is said in the world that a thousand-mile horse always exists but a bole does not always exist. Your Majesty and Mr. Feng are the bole! "

"Hey yo yo!"

Dai Quan was really surprised now.

This young man is upright and handsome, and he is very handsome and makes people fall in love with him at first sight.

Although he can fight and do things, in Dai Quan's opinion, there are many people in the court who can do things, and there is no shortage of you.

But being able to work and flatter someone, and most importantly, being able to flatter someone so smoothly and smoothly is the most rare thing.

If this child does not develop well in the future, it will be unforgivable.

Dai Quan, who looked at Jia Yu with softer eyes, laughed: "Master Feng, Master Jia, please wait a moment. After counting these silver coins, we will go to the palace to see His Majesty." An hour later, dozens of vehicles The cart was finally counted, and a total of 1406 million taels of silver and 600 taels of gold were stored in the warehouse.

Upon hearing this number, Dai Quan's eyes narrowed to a slit again, and he led the two of them extra diligently, entering the palace from Donghua Gate, and took them to the imperial study of Daming Palace.

Jia Yu, who entered the palace for the first time, was very curious and looked left and right along the way.

His behavior was actually considered rude. The little eunuch next to him wanted to remind him several times, but he swallowed his words again when he saw the smiling face of Manager Dai.

When the two entered the imperial study, Jia Yu saw a middle-aged man wearing a light yellow dragon robe and a gauze silk hat sitting behind the big bookcase opposite, looking at him intently.

Jia Yu knew that this was the fourth emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Emperor Changping's face was serious and cold.

His eyes are deep and sharp, and his eyebrows are like two swords drawn with charcoal, flying diagonally into his hair. Together with his thin lips, he looks even more mean and ruthless.

Therefore, this meeting was not a formal ceremony, but a private meeting. There was no need to kneel down, so the two of them bowed and saluted:
"My Majesty, General Feng Tang of Shenwu (Jia Yu, the leader of the third team of the front camp outpost), bows to His Majesty and wishes our Emperor long live!"

"Pingsheng! Someone... give me a seat!"

Today, Emperor Changping was in a happy mood, and his usually serious face became much softer.

As soon as they bowed down, he quickly asked them to stand up.

Soon, the two young eunuchs brought the brocade stools, and Feng Tang and Jia Yu sat down.

Unlike Feng Tang who only half-pulls his butt, Jia Yu, who grew up under the red flag, does not have this habit.

He sat upright as soon as he got up, but his upper body was straight, with his hands on his knees and his eyes fixed.

This is also a good habit he developed during his previous military career.

Seeing his sitting posture, Emperor Changping was slightly startled at first. At first he thought it was a pretense, but seeing his almost subconscious behavior, he couldn't help but nodded.

Hiding the admiration in his eyes, he asked: "Jia Yu."

"I'm here!" Jia Yu stood up immediately.

"Sit down...you don't need to be formal here." Emperor Changping's tone was quite gentle.

Dai Quan, who was standing next to him and serving him, had a clear view of Emperor Changping's expression, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. He knew best what kind of character Emperor Changping was. Almost all the young people who could be treated by him in this tone over the years were I can count the slaps.

He picked up a pile of letterheads on the Long Case and shook it: "Jia Yu, is this the information you sent to Shenjing in a hurry the day before yesterday?"

Jia Yu glanced at the letter and said, "It was written by Wei Chen."

Hearing this, a trace of ridicule flashed in Emperor Changping's eyes, "I heard that you still have the reputation of being a scholar. What's wrong? A scholar like this can write such words?"

"This..." Jia Yu's old face suddenly turned red.

It seems that this letter has become a stain that cannot be washed away in his life.

However, he also knew very well that if this issue was not explained clearly, although Emperor Changping would not say anything else because of his achievements this time, his impression of him would definitely be greatly reduced.
