The Number One Catcher In The Capital, You Call This A Dog Leg?

Chapter 882: Yunzhou

Of course, even if he had to leave, he still had to discuss Li Mingyue's marriage.

Li Mingyue sat next to Xu Qing, sipping tea, without speaking.

If you look closely, you will find that Li Mingyue's face has long been covered with a layer of pink.

It can be seen that Li Mingyue is nervous and shy at this time, and can only cover up her own heart by drinking tea.

Finally, Li Xun put down his teacup and said, "I'm sorry, brother Xu, I can't let you take Mingyue away this time."

Xiao Ye who was on the side heard Li Xun's words, and couldn't help but said: "What do you mean? Back-and-forth? Are you an emperor like this? Don't you know what you said?"

Li Mingyue's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly after hearing Li Xun's words, but she didn't say anything.

Xu Qing looked at Li Xun and asked, "What worries does Brother Li have?"

Li Xun said: "Mingyue is the eldest princess of my country of Zhou. If brother Xu is a prince now, I will marry Mingyue to brother Xu, but now brother Xu is only a marquis. I am afraid that he is not worthy of Mingyue." what."

Li Mingyue looked at Li Xun and said, "Brother, Mingyue doesn't care about these..."

Li Xun said: "Mingyue, you are the eldest princess. Do you understand that your words and deeds represent Zhou Guo instead of yourself?"

Xiao Ye said from the side; "What do you mean? When you were down and out, Brother Xu didn't think you were low-status. Now that you have become the emperor, you start to despise Brother Xu? Don't forget that you can't blow up the palace without our gunpowder." Door!"

Li Xun shook his head and said: "Where did I say that, if Brother Xu is willing to come to our Zhou Kingdom, Brother Xu will immediately become a prince. It is a pity that Brother Xu was born in your Chu Kingdom."

Xiao Ye said: "I've said it too, Brother Xu can be the prince after returning this time!"

Li Xun said: "Is that now?"

Xiao Ye gritted his teeth and said: "We have given you time to seek power and usurp the throne, so can't you give me some time to seek power and usurp the throne?"

Xu Qing looked at Li Xun, then at Xiao Ye, why did the topic get hotter and hotter?

Li Xun said: "Well, why don't we sign a contract first, within two years Brother Xiao will let Brother Xu become a prince, and I will marry Mingyue, how about it?"

Xiao Ye said: "It's okay to sign the contract, but where is the pen here? Where is the paper? How can I sign it?"

Li Xun took out a piece of paper from his pocket and said, "Don't worry, I've prepared it, and I don't need a pen. It's more sincere to put your fingerprint on it."

As he spoke, Li Xun took out the inkpad again.

Xiao Ye looked at Li Xun who was so well prepared, and couldn't help saying: "You are really well prepared."

Li Xun said with a smile: "It's a big deal, let's sign it."

Xiao Ye looked at Li Xun and asked, "What about your dowry?"

Li Xun said: "I will build a princess mansion in Yunzhou, and Yunzhou will be my dowry to Brother Xu."

Yunzhou is bordered by Chu State and Zhao State. It was originally the hub of trade between Zhou State, Chu State and Zhao State, but it was destroyed by the war several years ago. After opening a new trade point, Yunzhou was forgotten. .

In addition, the relationship between Zhou State and Chu State has always been tense, and no one is willing to take a caravan on such a blood-stained land.

Xiao Ye asked in surprise, "A dowry for a state?"

Li Xun nodded and said: "The dowry belongs to the dowry, but only Brother Xu is the lord of Yunzhou and the side-by-side king of our Zhou Kingdom, so he can mobilize the power of Yunzhou."

Xiao Ye was stunned: "After doing this for a long time, you still want to poach the wall?"

Li Xun said: "If Zhou Guo really treats Brother Xu in every possible way, how could Brother Xu come to my country of Zhou?"

Xiao Ye nodded when he heard this and said, "That's true."

Li Xun continued: "Brother Xu is the president of the National Chamber of Commerce. In fact, it would be a waste for the National Chamber of Commerce to be in the capital. If the industry of the National Chamber of Commerce can be transferred to Yunzhou or Weizhou of Chu State adjacent to Yunzhou , In this way, not only can the trade between the three countries in the Central Plains be more convenient, but it can also save a lot of travel expenses. Chu State really doesn’t know how to do business. Reduce road loss by 50%."

Xiao Ye's eyes widened when he heard Li Xun's words: "The Chu people are still here, let me tell you!"

Li Xun said; "What's wrong here? Isn't it true that Chu has been poor for sixty years since the founding of the country?"

Xiao Ye: "That was before."

Li Xun: "Isn't there something in the National Chamber of Commerce that was done by Brother Xu? It's the same as how much effort your court has made."

Xiao Ye: "You can do it..."

Li Xun; "Thank you."

Xiao Ye looked at Xu Qing and asked: "Will the National Chamber of Commerce really save consumption by placing it here?"

Xu Qing said: "As the business grows bigger and bigger, it is inevitable to trade with Zhou Guo and Zhao Guo, especially Zhao Guo is the richest country among the three countries in the Central Plains. If our country wants to catch up from behind, we must do business with Zhao Guo. Among them, there is a national commercial institute serving the state of Chu. Establishing an industrial chain of the national commercial institute in Weizhou will naturally be of great benefit in the future. Moreover, it is adjacent to the Zhao state, and the water veins run through all the way, so water transportation can save a lot of money. Silver, and faster."

Xiao Ye said: "Then after brother Xu becomes the king, the fief will be in Weizhou!"

Li Xun looked at Xiao Ye who was so decisive and asked: "Are you willing? Brother Xu is the treasure of your Chu country, are you willing to let them stay away from the capital?"

Xiao Ye said: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will dig the corner of the wall? At that time, Xue'er will naturally take care of my Chu State. Besides, Brother Xu and I are in-laws, and your Zhou State is just a princess. , How can you compare it with our Chu country? I don't believe that you can create another daughter now."

Now it was Li Xun's turn to be speechless.

But all speechless, it doesn't matter if the goal is achieved.

Now that the wealth of Chu State has surpassed that of Zhou State, I believe it is only a matter of time before Youguo Business Institute surpasses Zhao State, but there is no way, who let them produce a Xu Qing?

Zhou Guo does not have Xu Qing, so he must find a way to make up for this gap, such as finding a way to use the National Chamber of Commerce, if Yunzhou can become a trade hub with the countries of the Central Plains because of the addition of a National Chamber of Commerce in Weizhou The country of Zhou will naturally get more benefits, a large amount of silver will flow back to enrich the treasury, and the surrounding business routes will be recirculated.

Of course, such an approach is to strengthen Chu State in a disguised form, that is to say, while Zhou State gains two points, at least Chu State can get five points. The growth rate of Zhou State's wealth is based on the growth of Chu State.

But Li Xun can't help it. They have the Western Regions to the west of the Zhou Kingdom. It is absolutely impossible to conquer the Western Regions within ten years without money. Although there are ten years of accumulation, the opportunity for combat is fleeting. He will try all methods that can help Zhou Guo's treasury refill.

This is a win-win business, and there is no need for Chu to refuse.
