Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

Chapter 57

Lin Xiaofeng waved his arms impatiently, like a wolf dog before prey, and roared: "Hurry, hurry up, we have to settle this huge sum of money!" His fingers flew between the banknotes, like a A hungry spider is carefully weaving a large web of wealth.

After a hectic and tense inventory, the truth dropped quietly like morning dew.

The piles of banknotes and the treasure hidden in the bags amounted to a total of 40,455 taels!

This string of heavy numbers was like a cannonball ready to go, exploding suddenly in the quiet night sky, shaking everyone's heartstrings.

Except for Lin Xiaofeng, the rest of us were shocked by this astronomical figure. Apart from being stunned, there were waves of disbelief in our hearts.

Who would have thought that in the depths of the prosperous capital, those well-dressed young men would be so crazy about these jewels, and they could reap such huge profits from just one night's retail transaction, which can be called a transcendent person. A real business miracle.

Lin Xiaofeng's eyes flashed with smile lines of pride and satisfaction. He gently rubbed his chin, as if he had understood the profound consumption background of the capital, and let out a satisfied chuckle: "Look at the purchasing power of this capital, it is really extraordinary. It seems I need to prepare more sparkling glass rings and necklaces.”

Lin Taohua's face was like a peach blossom on a rainy day, covered with a faint layer of melancholy. Her brows were furrowed, and there was a hint of unnoticeable anxiety in her eyes.

She spoke cautiously, her voice as thin as a gnat, but clearly audible: "Sir, this move may be risky. There are rumors circulating that you are secretly trading jewelry in the name of the prince. Once the matter is leaked, I'm afraid you will be punished." You have caused unreasonable disaster."

When Lin Xiaofeng heard this, his eyes were as hot as fire, and his pupils were wide open, containing rock-solid determination: "No need to worry, I will handle everything, you just need to perform your duties." He His words were as loud as a bell, echoing in every inch of the room.

Lin Xiaofeng had already made a plan in his mind and knew that the secret of this diamond ring would not be concealed for long. As the Emperor of Jingjiang, how could he not know anything about such a tumultuous business?

Lu Sinan was standing aside, with a mix of curiosity and astonishment on his face. He asked suspiciously, "Sir, what kind of rare treasures did you sell to get such a huge profit return?"

Lin Xiaofeng's usually calm face now had a mysterious smile, like a circle of ripples suddenly rising on a calm lake, quietly spreading in the direction of Lu Sinan. His tone was low and powerful, and each word was like a note on a piano string, striking a melody with ups and downs: "Lu Sinan, why not take a guess, what kind of magical existence is this treasure and specialty hidden in Yangqu County? "

When Lu Sinan heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, like two shiny Go pieces embedded in a confused face, revealing his inner shock and curiosity: "Is there such a rare specialty hidden in Yangqu County? I am here in Yangqu County. You have lived in Qu for many years, but you don’t know anything about it?”

At this time, Lin Xiaofeng leisurely picked up an ordinary-looking cloth bag from the table. The bag was like a butterfly fluttering in his hands, and seemed to be wrapped with boundless secrets. He slowly opened the bag and waved it gently. In an instant, the tabletop was like a galaxy hanging upside down, shining brightly. The diamond rings and necklaces shone brightly, like the Milky Way pouring into the world, dazzling and dizzying. Fascinating.

Yin Jiajin witnessed this scene, her beautiful eyebrows were slightly knitted, her expression was like a trembling pear blossom in the cold winter. It was obvious that what she saw in front of her far exceeded her expectations, and an indescribable feeling surged in her heart. Wandering and loss.

Lu Sinan was dumbfounded, his eyes fixed on the table of jewelry that shone like stars. After a long time, he blurted out in surprise: "Oh, aren't these all exquisite glass products? My lord, your technique is really the best!" His The words were full of deep admiration and admiration, as if expressing sincere admiration for Lin Xiaofeng's resourcefulness and skill.

However, when he tentatively offered to get a share of the pie and cautiously asked if he could give him some to sell, Lin Xiaofeng's face immediately darkened, his eyebrows knitted together, and his sharp eyes shot at Lu Sinan like arrows: "Nonsense." ! I have great use for these things. You kid only knows how to idle around and not make progress. You always want to take shortcuts and make a fortune. Have you forgotten what I usually teach you - to be down-to-earth and always maintain your original intention? went?"

Before Lu Sinan could respond, Xie Hongxin stepped forward, his serious expression like a mirror, reflecting Lu Sinan's embarrassment and helplessness. He took Lu Sinan away without any explanation, leaving a silence.

Lin Xiaofeng turned to face Lin Taohua, who had been silent all this time. The majesty between his brows did not diminish, but became more determined: "Taohua, gather more people as soon as possible. We will double the value of these diamond rings and make a lot of money. If we can You can get as much as you want, no need to be merciful."

Lin Taohua looked at Lin Xiaofeng's firm eyes and couldn't help but feel her heart tremble slightly. A trace of hesitation appeared on her face: "Sir, is there really no problem in doing this?"

Lin Xiaofeng laughed loudly, and his heroic spirit was palpable: "Why not? Even if the sky falls, the prince will hold up. We are doing justice for heaven, robbing the rich and giving to the poor, so just do it boldly, there is no need to worry too much!" He said, He waved his hand, and his figure looked particularly tall and decisive in the sunset.

······························································································ ･･･

The next morning, the sun shone slantly into the imperial study through the window lattice. The air was filled with the strong fragrance of ink and the calm atmosphere of wooden furniture, creating a solemn and subtle atmosphere.

Emperor Jingjiang is sitting on the dragon chair. On his broad desk, two stacks of brand new banknotes are like a silent picture scroll, forming a unique landscape that shines brightly.

Opposite him, Lin Xiaofeng was sitting upright, his face like a finely carved jade statue. Although he tried his best to remain calm, there was still an almost elusive smile quietly rippling at the corner of his mouth.

Emperor Jingjiang's eyes wandered over the banknotes, but the words he spoke out contained a hint of joking and amusement: "Lin Aiqing, why are you here on the table? Could it be that Yangqu County hastily paid taxes?" ?”

Hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng had a deep smile on his face. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a steady and calm voice: "Your Majesty, it is clear that this amount does not come from Yangqu County, but is actually obtained from a transaction between the minister and His Royal Highness yesterday. . Considering that placing such a huge amount of money in the hands of His Majesty the Crown Prince may cause unnecessary trouble, I think it is more appropriate to leave it to Your Majesty for your personal custody."

When Emperor Jingjiang heard this, his face moved slightly, and a touch of joy flowed in his eyes: "Oh, so there is such a thing! In that case, I will accept the money on behalf of the prince. But, Lin Aiqing, what exactly is this business of yours? What kind of deal is this?"

Upon seeing this, Lin Xiaofeng stood up and walked slowly towards Emperor Jingjiang's imperial desk. He held up a dazzling ring in both hands and placed it gently on the table inlaid with dragon patterns. There was a hint of mystery in his words: "Your Majesty, this is Items traded yesterday. The value of this ring alone is about one hundred taels of silver."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingjiang stretched out a pair of strong hands and carefully picked up the ring. His eyes wandered in the ring's flowing luster, showing endless admiration and surprise: "It is really dazzling, rich and noble, and absolutely extraordinary." It can be compared with other things, and its value is indeed worthy of such a high price.”

Just as Emperor Jingjiang finished speaking, Lin Xiaofeng flipped his wrist and took out a cloth bag from his waist. The rings filled in the bag were taken out one by one like bamboo shoots after a rain, and they were scattered lightly on the imperial case.

In an instant, the originally cold and solemn imperial desk seemed to turn into a field of blooming flowers. The light scattered by the glass rings intertwined to form an extremely gorgeous glass flower, blooming in this solemn and solemn imperial study.

Emperor Jingjiang stared at the densely packed glass rings that sparkled with crystal brilliance. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes wrinkled deeply, as if he was trying his best to suppress the emotions surging in his heart. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and fell into a deep silence.

After a long time, he spoke slowly, with a low and majestic voice: "Lin Aiqing, what is the actual value of these seemingly luxurious glass rings?"

"After deducting the labor cost, these rings only cost about one tael of silver to make dozens or twenty of them. However, although the gemstones inlaid in the rings are called glass, they are actually made in Yangqu County. Frankly, the glass is worthless."

Lin Xiaofeng answered calmly, with a neither condescending nor condescending tone, "I am currently planning to replace all the window paper in Yangqu County with this kind of glass."

When Emperor Jingjiang heard these words, he was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and instantly froze in place. Although his body did not move, his heart was surging like waves.

He turned his gaze to Lin Xiaofeng, and his majestic and deep eyes were filled with shock and confusion at this moment, as if there were countless question marks intertwined and circling between them.

The day before, Emperor Jingjiang held a secret report in his hand, which clearly recorded that the prince and Lin Xiaofeng were privately selling a diamond ring in the capital. It was also rumored that the diamond was acquired by the prince by chance. It was extremely precious and rare in the world.

Regarding this news, Emperor Jingjiang secretly speculated in his heart that if the prince really held such a rare treasure, he should have told the world early. Why did he keep himself, a nine-five-year-old man, in the dark? But then I thought about it, there must be Lin Xiaofeng's careful planning behind this matter.

However, Emperor Jingjiang never expected that the diamond ring that was once regarded as priceless by everyone would now turn into a worthless illusion in front of him.

His eyes fell on the shining diamond ring on the desk and the thick stack of twenty thousand taels of silver notes. The feeling in his heart was indescribable, complex and subtle, sour, bitter, smiling and sighing.

He pondered for a long time, and the air around him seemed to condense at this moment. He slowly spoke, with a trace of imperceptible blame and exploration in his words: "Lin Aiqing, aren't you deceiving me by doing this?"

Faced with Emperor Jingjiang's questioning, Lin Xiaofeng did not show the slightest panic. Instead, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a calm and calm smile, and waved his hand gently, as if to brush away the tense atmosphere in the air.

"Your Majesty, this is wrong." Lin Xiaofeng's words were smooth and powerful, like a clear spring flowing through the rocks, washing away the dust, "This so-called 'deception' is actually the value of the glass-making technology developed by my ministers who spent a lot of effort. Nowadays, only Yangqu County masters this technology, and no other company in the world can copy it. In other words, this is a unique existence, unparalleled in the world."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingjiang pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement: "Lin Aiqing's words are indeed reasonable, I understand." But he then cast out the questions in his heart, and his words were filled with inquiry and curiosity: "However, since You have already found a way to make wealth, why did you come here to tell me?"

In the splendid palace, Lin Xiaofeng's eyes were lowered, staring with awe and determination at the Emperor Jingjiang who was sitting high on the dragon throne. His eyes were as deep as the star-studded night sky, bright and burning like a torch. Any small tricks that were tried to play in front of his eyes were like fireflies trying to cover the sun, leaving nowhere to hide. Lin Xiaofeng's respectful and humble words echoed in the hall: "I have come to see you this time because I really have something important to ask of you."

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Emperor Jingjiang's mouth. He held the exquisitely carved jade cup in his hand and swayed gently, as if harmonizing with the rhythm of heaven and earth. The aroma of tea escaped from the cup and quietly penetrated every corner of the air. He said in a long tone: "I'm listening. There's no harm in speaking out."

Lin Xiaofeng was as careful as his hair, his eyes were fixed on Emperor Jingjiang's unpredictable smile, and he slowly said: "Your Majesty is very aware of everything. Last night, with only a seemingly ordinary glass ring, the minister was swaying among the rich families in the capital. , actually won over ten thousand taels of silver."

"From this point of view, the capital is not short of wealth, but is actually caused by poor circulation. Those wealthy families, sitting on the gold and silver sea, advocate stinginess and frugality, making the gold and silver currency like a blocked stream, unable to moisten the common people. in life.”

He further elaborated: "The products of Yangqu County, whether it is the tea of ​​the past or the shining diamond ring last night, have aroused enthusiastic pursuit in the capital. For this reason, the minister has ordered Yangqu County to clear the roads. Directly to the capital city. Once the road is clear, Yangqu County's dazzling array of commodities will flow into the capital market unimpeded like rivers flowing into the sea."

As Lin Xiaofeng narrated, he meticulously captured every subtle change in Emperor Jingjiang's face. What caught his eyes was an unfathomable ocean of contemplation.

He continued his speech: "We boldly request your majesty to allow the prince to govern a land as a pilot reform. If the commodities in Yangqu County can circulate smoothly among the people, it will not only benefit the people and enable the circulation of coins; it will also It will enrich the imperial treasury and relieve financial pressure; it will also allow the prince to take this opportunity to practice governance and hone his talents. This move can be said to kill three birds with one stone."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath, and the stone in his heart seemed to fall with it. The key to this long-planned plan lies in the final word at this moment. He is well aware of the intricate connections behind the prosperity of the capital city. Even if the products from Yangqu County are of high quality, it is not easy to open up a world in the capital city. Only by controlling a territory that belongs to your own operations can all problems be solved.

This land is not only the core hub of commodity circulation, but also an important node where power is intertwined.

And the 20% shares of all the industries in Yangqu County that he was willing to offer were a symbol of his submission to the imperial power.

In this society ruled by imperial power, wealth is often accompanied by dangers. Handing over part of it at the right time in exchange for the protection of imperial power is undoubtedly a wise choice.

What's more, what you exchange for these 20% shares will be the most powerful support in the world. This deal, no matter from which point of view, is extremely cost-effective.

Next to Emperor Jingjiang's majestic throne, Lin Xiaofeng stood upright and steady. His words flowed out like a gurgling stream. Every word was soaked with sincerity and wisdom, making Emperor Jingjiang's originally unfathomable gaze instantly solidify. , stunned, a mixture of shock and curiosity dancing in the depths of his eyes.

When it comes to the 20% shares in Yangqu County, it is like an invisible mountain of gold and silver. Once it is included in the bag, it will undoubtedly make the palace's small treasury full, and it will no longer have to worry about financial constraints.

The depths of Emperor Jingjiang's heart were swinging like weights. On one side was the prince's repeated unconventional behavior, and on the other side was the business cooperation proposal proposed by Lin Xiaofeng at this moment, which did not seem to touch the foundation of imperial power.

Despite this, his imperial prudence still caused him to show a trace of hesitation when making decisions, "It's not that I can't agree to this, I'm just worried about whether you have the ability to control the overall situation."

As soon as Emperor Jingjiang finished speaking, Lin Xiaofeng gave an indifferent and alert smile, and a cunning light suddenly flashed in his eyes, just like the eyes of a fox when facing bait, "Your Majesty, the laws of operation in this world are like two The invisible hand is either visible or invisible."

When Emperor Jingjiang heard this, his brows furrowed, like a solemn expression in an ink-stained landscape painting, and a confused voice emerged from his throat, "What are two hands?"

Lin Xiaofeng responded calmly, "That visible hand is your Majesty who symbolizes the supreme imperial power. With one hand you hold up the country and with the other you control the welfare of the people. It represents the source of all power in the world."

After hearing this, Emperor Jingjiang asked further, "Then, what is that invisible hand?"

Lin Xiaofeng's tone was steady and powerful, "The invisible hand is actually the law of economics and the law of the market. It is like the natural force of heaven and earth. It invisibly controls all aspects of the world and represents the needs and choices of hundreds of millions of people."

He raised his chest and raised his head, and said confidently, "I may not be as good as Your Majesty in the government affairs of the court, but I have my own unique insights in using this invisible hand, that is, the economic method, to achieve goals."

He further elaborated, "Take this diamond ring as an example. Even if its cost is meager, through clever product positioning and exquisite packaging design, it can completely turn decay into magic."

"Those top-quality diamond rings, after being skillfully carved, coupled with extremely luxurious packaging, and supported by an overwhelming publicity campaign, are endowed with unique symbolic meanings and can be easily sold to wealthy aristocrats in exchange for high value returns."

"The next-level diamond rings can be decorated with appropriate carvings and appropriately packaged, and can flow into middle-class families at moderate prices to meet their consumer needs."

"As for the ordinary people, we only need to ensure the original quality of the diamond rings and slightly increase the selling price to ensure profits and make them feel that they are worth their money."

"So, under our careful operation, the same diamond ring can adapt to the needs of different consumption levels, and everyone gets what they want, and everyone is happy. This is what is called price discrimination strategy in economics."

Finally, Lin Xiaofeng added eloquently, "As for the first batch of ordinary diamond rings on the market, although they seem ordinary, I have already arranged for someone to make an authoritative appraisal certificate, which has enhanced its collection value and completely eliminated potential risks."

Emperor Jingjiang's eyelids trembled slightly, as if being pulled by an invisible force. They closed instantly and then slowly opened, like a bright moon in a deep pool, experiencing a brief period of dimness and hesitation.

Facing Lin Xiaofeng in front of him, with his eloquent face and eloquent words, Emperor Jingjiang's eyes showed a look of surprise and confusion, as if he had been involved in a carefully woven maze of words, and he could not move quickly at the moment. Find your own thoughts.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, until a long while later, Emperor Jingjiang's Adam's apple rolled, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from the depths of his soul: "Lin Aiqing, you are a rare talent!" These words were as heavy as The collision of gold and stone echoed in the empty hall.

Lin Xiaofeng stared at Emperor Jingjiang's complex expression, a trace of helpless sadness flashed in his eyes, and then he sighed, as if the autumn wind was blowing through the desolate wilderness: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you are thinking of me at this moment as a person who smells of copper. Businessmen think that everything I do is just for gold and silver. However, as a scholar, how passionate am I about money?" He continued, with firmness and persistence in his tone: "In this bustling court, Above all, I may not be the most adept at handling government affairs, but my heart is always concerned about His Majesty's worries. Fortunately, I have some knowledge of business, and I can try to solve the problems for the imperial court with my small power."

"Every time I hear His Majesty mention the empty treasury, my heart feels like being pricked by a needle. That pain keeps me awake at night and makes me think every day. After countless times of suffering and thinking, I came up with this plan. .Although the result is still unknown, I am willing to give it my all and give it a try!”

Listening to Lin Xiaofeng's heartfelt words, Emperor Jingjiang felt an indescribable emotion and emotion in his heart. His eyes were filled with admiration and concern: "I am extremely pleased that Lin Aiqing has such a big heart and courage."

He warned in a serious tone: "It's just that you must be very cautious about the prince's affairs. If anything happens, I will stop this matter immediately."

When Lin Xiaofeng heard this, an almost imperceptible smile quietly appeared at the corner of his mouth. It was the calmness and confidence after experiencing the vicissitudes of life: "I accept the decree and thank you for your concern." This smile was like the dawn, illuminating him. Determination and belief in the heart.

How could Lin Xiaofeng be content with being ordinary since leaving Yangqu County? He has great ambitions to recreate a prosperous Yangqu County in this prosperous place in the capital, so that the successful experience there can bear fruit here and contribute to the country and the country.

··················································· ···

Deep in Lin Xiaofeng's soul, the idea of ​​asking Emperor Jingjiang to take charge of the first branch of the capital was like the brightest star in the night sky, shining with a strange light.

This star kept spinning and fluctuating in his mind, sometimes diving deep into the abyss of thoughts, sometimes emerging on the waves of consciousness. Whenever he repeatedly polishes this ideal in his heart, the grinding wheel of the years makes it shine more and more, until its possibility is like a sharpened sword, with a sharp edge that makes people believe it.

When Lin Xiaofeng decided to speak, it was not just because of a moment of enthusiasm, but after countless times of inner casting and tempering.

In his eyes, Emperor Jingjiang is like a classic that has been through many vicissitudes of life and has been read thoroughly. Every chapter and line of writing is engraved on the stone tablet of his memory, which is vivid in his mind.

Emperor Jingjiang's mind was as broad as the vast sea, and his resourcefulness and courage were tempered on the raging battlefield, where the speed and danger of changes in the world were far greater than any game of power in the world.

In this boundless battle formation, human will can be like a wild horse, allowing it to gallop across the battlefield, regardless of the earthly fetters that try to restrain its wings.

Li Dexian's outstanding performance was like a huge stepping stone, steadily lifting Lin Xiaofeng's weight in Emperor Jingjiang's heart.

Lin Xiaofeng knows that this is the indispensable cornerstone for him to move forward step by step towards his grand vision.

When it comes to entering the business world side by side with the prince, although the tide of public opinion may surge due to fear of the integration of power, Lin Xiaofeng takes it calmly and does not mind it.

Their friendship is no longer a palace secret, but a fact known to everyone, so why worry about adding another piece of gossip?

Furthermore, the emperor himself is also involved in the market business and manages the wine shop business. If this is used as a criticism, it is nonsense.

Just as Lin Xiaofeng was immersed in the joy brought by the newly harvested more than 40,000 taels of silver, this strong confidence prompted him to straighten his back, look with bright eyes at the talented and resourceful Emperor Jingjiang, and reveal his wish.

When he spoke, he spoke loudly, and every syllable was full of confidence and perseverance, as if every breath was gathering strength to present the long-awaited grand ambition in front of Emperor Jingjiang.

Emperor Jingjiang did not disappoint Lin Xiaofeng. He understood Lin Xiaofeng's unswerving determination, tasted the calmness and wisdom behind his talent, and nodded approvingly, generously accepting his petition.

At this moment, what Lin Xiaofeng longed for was not only the management rights of a land, but also the trust and expectation of a wise monarch, which was a gift more precious than gold and silver.

This game was not only the starting point of his personal glory, but also an important chapter in the blueprint for governing the world that he and Emperor Jingjiang drew together.

Regarding the location of Fangshi, Lin Xiaofeng had his own thoughts, just like the ancient map, which was quietly drawn out during the day after day of wandering and exploring.

Whenever the sun sets in the west, the gong of the Yamen sounds leisurely, announcing the end of the day's official duties. Lin Xiaofeng takes off his official uniform, puts on a simple and elegant commoner, and embarks on his wandering journey.

The capital's 108 squares stretched out under his feet, like a huge chessboard, orderly embedded in the texture of this thousand-year-old capital.

At that time, Lin Xiaofeng's eyes first fell on Dongdifang, which is adjacent to the east side of the inner city.

The geographical advantage there is like a godsend, the infrastructure is complete, commercial activities are flourishing, and the public security situation is second to none.

Especially the main street, the stone road is wide and flat, just like the streets in Yangqu County, as if every inch of land contains business opportunities, and it can be put into use immediately without any additional large investment.

In addition, Dongdifang is adjacent to the Dongcheng Military and Horse Division, so any emergencies can be mobilized in time and manpower and material resources can be properly handled.

However, even in the face of such superior conditions as Dongdifang, Lin Xiaofeng was not easily tempted.

He knew that the more fertile the land, the more intricately entangled the vines of interest were.

Although the current prince governs the country fairly and clearly, he cannot avoid the undercurrent of power struggle.

What's more, the richness of East Difang and the poverty of North Langfang formed a dazzling contrast that he could not ignore.

In North Langfang, the rugged roads seem to tell the story of the years of hard work and the hardships of life.

Although it is rumored that the Wucheng Army and Horses Division has started to renovate the roads throughout the city, in North Langfang, the so-called "renovation" is just to compact the soil slightly. Whenever it rains continuously, it is difficult to walk in the mud. Countless poor families gather here, and the surrounding markets are generally similar.

Lin Xiaofeng grew up in a poor family, and that unforgettable experience of poverty has always been imprinted in the depths of his soul, giving him an inseparable emotional bond with this place of suffering.

Deep down in his heart, he is more willing to devote himself to such a poor area, hoping to change the people's livelihood here through his own efforts.

Choosing North Langfang not only means improving the quality of life of local people, but also taking this opportunity to stimulate the vitality of surrounding cities and promote overall development.

The significance of this transformation is far from simply focusing on the economic progress of Yangqu County. It also lies in his firm belief - to prevent the gap between the rich and the poor in society from widening, and to prevent the glory of the rich from reflecting the sorrow of the poor and the weak. This is his belief His original wish was also his unswerving pursuit.

At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng's funds were not abundant.

Since Yangqu County allocated 120,000 taels of silver, after deducting part of the tribute to the palace and the daily expenses of maintaining the mansion, there is very little left.

Half of the 40,000 taels of silver won yesterday was given to Emperor Jingjiang. After careful calculation, he only had more than 50,000 taels at his disposal.

Although 50,000 taels of silver seemed to be too much to renovate the infrastructure of North Langfang, if he drew up a blueprint according to the standards he had in Yangqu County, this amount would be enough to support the initial renovation work.

As a result, the balance in Lin Xiaofeng's heart had tilted, and the final decision gradually became clear in his mind: North Langfang would be a new world for him to create a career in the capital!

Lin Xiaofeng's figure stopped briefly in front of Emperor Jingjiang's majestic and deep dragon chair. The two had a concise and in-depth conversation about the prince's affairs. On the road to the East Palace.

The stone road along the way beat a steady and urgent rhythm under his feet, like an unfinished symphony.

In a corner of the East Palace, Li Dexian was waiting anxiously, like a wolf cub driven by hunger. When Lin Xiaofeng's figure finally came into view, he immediately rushed forward like an arrow from a string, his face full of enthusiasm. He asked loudly: "Old Lin, you are finally here! How much silver can we get from that transaction last night?"

Facing this scene, Lin Xiaofeng raised the corners of his mouth unhurriedly, and an indifferent smile quietly bloomed on his face. Then, he stretched out his slender fingers and made four gestures, like four pillars, quietly Standing in the air.

"Four thousand taels?!" Li Dexian's eyes widened, and his voice was full of incredible joy. To him, this amount was undoubtedly a piece of pie from the sky, enough to be worth the salary he had earned through half a year's hard work. Almost salivating.

However, Lin Xiaofeng slowly shook his wise head and said in a calm but powerful tone: "No, it's forty thousand taels."

These words were like a boulder thrown into the middle of a lake, arousing ripples in Li Dexian's heart. He instantly felt the world spinning, and his eyes of disbelief shone brightly. He asked impatiently: "Where's the money? Where's the money?" ?Where is my money?”

Lin Xiaofeng smiled and said nothing, but patted his shoulder gently, as if to comfort a wild horse that was about to run away: "Your Majesty has taken good care of your share."

Li Dexian's face was instantly covered with a layer of gloom. He waved his arms and his anger was palpable: "Who cares about him saving it for me! I'm going to ask my father for an explanation!"

Seeing this, Lin Xiaofeng quickly grabbed his excited arm, with a hint of cunning hidden in his smile: "Don't be impatient, I have exchanged your share of silver for something good."

Li Dexian was stunned, his confused eyes fixed on Lin Xiaofeng, waiting for him to reveal the answer to the mystery.

When Lin Xiaofeng saw this, he no longer pretended to be mysterious, but said bluntly: "I have given advice to Your Majesty, recommending you to manage a place in the capital. Haven't you always yearned for Yangqu County? Now the opportunity has come, you can Go and create the world that belongs to you yourself.”

"Really?" Li Dexian was stunned, his eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe his ears. Those ideals that could only be built in dreams seemed to be within reach now.

At the beginning, he had regarded it as a great grace to have his father's permission to leave the palace.

Now, he actually has the opportunity to take charge of a piece of land, which means that he will have the supreme decision-making power on that land and can build and shape it according to his own wishes. How can this not make people's hearts and blood boil? Everything is as beautiful as a dream, and extremely real before your eyes.

"Really!" Lin Xiaofeng said decisively.

After listening to this, Li Dexian's face flashed with an excited blush, and he immediately laughed at the table. The laughter was so loud that the dust in the room seemed to tremble, "Haha, Brother Lin, you have done me a huge favor this time." Ah! The long-hidden dream in my heart finally saw the light of realization!" His eyes flickered, like the stars in the night sky, full of expectation and pride.

When Lin Xiaofeng heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked: "Oh? I wonder what kind of wish makes His Highness so excited?"

Li Dexian's eyes flashed, and he declared confidently: "I will surround the entire city tightly, build a high fence, and then put a hundred tigers, lions, and wolves in it, and let them fight freely in it. Stage a battle for survival!" As he spoke, he seemed to be able to see the bloody scene unfolding in his mind.

Lin Xiaofeng's face instantly darkened, his brows furrowed, and he cursed in his heart: "Isn't this a ridiculous idea that only a foolish and unscrupulous person would have? Could it be that he has fallen into that kind of fanatical fantasy again?"

He frowned and asked: "How will the people in Fang City be accommodated? Is it possible that they will become food for tigers and wolves?"

Li Dexian gently waved his wide sleeves and raised a proud smile on his lips: "This is the most exciting part! We have relocated all the residents in Fang City, leaving only these ferocious beasts to dominate here."

He further painted a strange picture: "If anyone wants to come and watch this wild feast in person, we will build a special iron cage, lock the person in it, and then use a horse-drawn cart to send him into the fence. , allowing people to witness the majestic posture of those beasts up close.”

When Lin Xiaofeng heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "What about the horse? Faced with ligers and tigers, isn't the horse in danger?"

Li Dexian was stunned when he heard this. After a moment of silence, his eyes rolled around a few times and he came up with a new countermeasure: "It doesn't matter, we can put iron armor on the horse. In this way, there will be no worries." That's it." His words showed his cunning and confidence.

Lin Xiaofeng sighed helplessly, thinking: This prince was probably a prince who ran a wildlife park in his previous life, and his talent was really buried.

Li Dexian's face was full of pride and he asked Lin Xiaofeng as if he was showing off: "Old Lin, what do you think of my idea?"

Lin Xiaofeng gave a thumbs up with a wry smile, and half-seriously praised: "Wonderful! It's so wonderful! If the animal viewing car can drive automatically, it would be even more perfect! His Highness's imagination is really amazing, but I’m afraid that when the emperor sees this, he will have to create a new prince to inherit this fantastic idea!”

"That's it, let's get back to the topic. You can follow me to North Langfang tomorrow. That place will be your jurisdiction in the future."

Lin Xiaofeng continued: "I will go ahead and pick up some items from the Beicheng Military and Horse Department later. Your Highness might as well think about it first and see how the layout should be planned."

"Bei Langfang? I have never heard of such a place. How could you choose such a remote place?" Li Dexian looked puzzled and stared at Lin Xiaofeng.

Lin Xiaofeng smiled mysteriously and responded: "Your Highness, there is no need to rush. All the mysteries will be revealed tomorrow when we arrive in Beilangfang."
