Unparalleled Concubine

Vol 2 Chapter 688: The family got rich

   Chapter 688 The family has made a fortune

In fact, this question should not be asked by Zhong Heng, because since the emperor wants to do this, he will naturally tell the Zhong family what he wants to do. That is to say, the emperor will send an edict to Yunzhou City, clearly the intentions of the court.

  Chong Xuantong will naturally understand what to do when the time comes. As for this young master, he is actually just a delivery guy. The reason why he was chosen to deliver is because there is no more suitable person in the capital.

   After hearing about Chong Heng's question, Li Xin smiled lightly: "Why don't you be so impatient, when you arrive at Yunzhou City, Chong Shuai will naturally tell you the matter."

  Chongheng slowly let out a breath and said, "I know it's inconvenient for Mr. Li to talk, but I'm talking too much."

   It's true that he talks too much.

   This kind of thing, when Li Xin talks with the emperor, can chat freely, but when it is zoomed in to the national level, because the emperor is involved, this is actually the highest level of national decision-making, and it is a national decision that has not been completely determined.

   This kind of thing cannot be said everywhere with a big tongue. Even if Li Xin can bear the consequences, but if he talks too much, he may not be able to touch this kind of decision-making at the national level in the future.

However, it is not easy to offend the Zhong family. The Lord of Jingan smiled and said, "After Mr. Zhong delivers the things to Yunzhou City, everything will be settled. I won't tell you too much at this time. It's because some things haven't been determined yet, maybe there will be changes in a few days, if I'm wrong, the young master will complain that I lied."

   Zhong Heng lowered his head slightly.

   "Li Houye is too polite. You are the Crown Prince Taibao, and you are the Minister of War. There is no reason to lie to me, this little commander-in-chief."

   "It's no fun to be promoted."

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled casually: "Young Master Zhong also knows that I have been idle at home for the past few years, and I have not been in charge of anything, and my official position is just a name. In real terms, there is no Chief Soldier of the Army and Horse Division. great power."

   "Li Houye is very polite."

  Chongheng stood up, bowed his head and said, "Master Li, I want to take a look at these weapons in the Ministry of War. I don't know if it's inconvenient."

Chong Heng also started at the age of sixteen, and went to Yunzhou City to serve as a soldier. It was not until a few years ago that he was sent back to the capital by Chong Xuantong, who asked him to be a military officer in the capital. Still very interested.

  Li Xin stood up cheerfully, nodded and said, "The weapons made by the weapons supervisor this time are of very good quality. I have already inspected them, so I will take a look at them."

   After saying this, Li Xin got up and folded his hands in the sleeves in front of him. Chong Heng also imitated the appearance of the Lord of Jing'an, and the two walked one after the other in the palace of the Marquis of Jing'an.

   After a while, Master Chong sighed.

   "The mansion of Lord Hou is really eye-opening. It is much more stylish than the mansion I have in the capital."

Li Houye shook his head slightly: "I also picked up other people's old houses, and I don't hide the fact that I have few seeds. To this day, I have not visited this house, and it is not a good thing that the house is too big. It is a hard task to walk from the front door to the back door. "

   Zhongheng smiled.

   "Lord Li said these words, I don't know how many people in the capital are going to hit the pillars."

No matter what era, it is not easy to have a house in the capital. When Li Xin came to this world at the beginning of the year, if there was no help from His Royal Highness King Wei, if he was busy selling carbon in the proud building, at least It will take two or three years to buy a small house in Chase Square.

   As for the house in Yonglefang, money can’t buy it.

The time the two of them were talking, they had already reached the back door. On the street outside the back door, there were a total of 28 carts parked. Next to each cart, there were ten or so black-clothed Yulin guards guarding them. Chong Heng walked to the side of one of the carts, pulled out a standard long knife from it, and threw it to Chong Heng.

   Young Master Zhong pulled out his long knife with a sound of "clang", first tapped the blade with his hand, and after hearing the sound in his ear, he looked at the blade edge against the light, and said something with a sigh.

   "Good knife."

After   , Mr. Zhong climbed onto the cart by himself, pulled six or seven out of it in one breath, and looked at them one by one. Then he raised his head and smiled at Li Xin.

   "Master Hou is right. The weapons supervisor is very willing to use materials. This batch of knives is very good. Compared with the current saber in Yunzhou City, it is a whole grade better."

  The Marquis of Jing An said with a smile: "When they sent things here that day, I was drooling and almost wanted to deduct dozens of them."

  Li Xin is also a military commander. He has been in the army for many years and naturally loves knives.

  Chong Heng hesitated for a moment, then said, "How about tomorrow... I'll leave fifty pieces for Lord Hou?"

   Li Xin smiled and shook his head.

"Just kidding, Chong Shaomo wants to kill me, how can I say that I am also the minister of military affairs, these things are in my hands, if some of them are left, the people of the Censor's Taiwan will investigate them, and I will be indistinguishable. "

   Young Master Zhong grinned at Li Xin.

   "Are you still afraid of the people from the Censor?"

   "How not to be afraid?"

  Jing'an Marquis said solemnly: "As long as you are an official in the court, you have to be afraid of the censor's desk."

  Chong Heng didn't make a decision, just smiled: "I'll take a look at the armored bow and crossbow again."

Originally, he was only a delivery person and had no right to inspect it, but because this batch of ordnance was delivered to Yunzhou City, that is, to his home, this young master was so concerned that he came to inspect it in person. .

  Li Xin was like an old man, with both hands tucked into his sleeves, said indifferently.

   "You can do as little as you want."

Chong Heng was also a martial artist since he was a child. He stretched out his hands very agilely. He jumped up and down several times on several carts. Li Xin grinned.

   "The swords and armors are all very good, just like the crossbow arrows, but there is no need to break the armor in Yunzhou City. This kind of crossbow arrows is enough."

  The Yuwen tribes still had a lot of armor during the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but they retreated to the back of Guanzai. Because of the extreme lack of iron, the armor was almost all leather armor, and there was no iron armor.

   This young master is very happy.

   "Thank you, Lord Li, for being busy."

   After arriving in Yunzhou City, this batch of things went into the pockets of the Zhongjia Army, and it could even be regarded as the private property of his Zhongjia Army. He couldn't help but be unhappy that he got so many good things for nothing.

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled and said: "These things were ordered by His Majesty himself. The three million dollars allocated by the subordinates of the household were almost all used. Even if these things were sold outside at the market price, they would at least be doubled. The price of Zhong’s family is considered a fortune this time, so he has to find a chance to invite me to a meal.”

  Chongheng's eyes were full of smiles, but he shook his head with a serious face.

   "Your Majesty is wrong. This is given to the army of Yunzhou by the imperial court. The army of Yunzhou is the army of the imperial court. How did I get rich from farming?"

   Lord Jingan smiled slightly.

   "Then why don't you have this meal?"

   "Please, please, of course I will."

  Chong Heng said with a smile: "It's just that tomorrow I'm going to go north. If you don't have time tonight, you can only wait for me to come back."

  The Marquis of Jing An said with a smile: "Young Master Chong has to hurry tomorrow, so tonight, let's talk about it when Master Chong returns to Beijing."

   Zhonghe nodded cheerfully.

   "Then it's settled."
