Chapter 233

"Willing to come back?" As they just stepped into the gate of the South Garden, they saw Xia Hou Qin leaning against the tree trunk in the courtyard. They were angry and stared at each other with a smile!

Chu Feiyang is not frightened by Xia houqin's expression, but the smile on the corner of his mouth is more and more strong. He leads cloud qianmeng to change his steps and walks towards Xia houqin. "This sentence should be asked by our cousin! Are you finally willing to come back? You can have a good time outside this half month? "

Seeing that Chu Feiyang had not been bluffed by himself, Xia houqin looked at the bottom of his eyes with a look of failure, slowly stood up straight, shrugged lightly, and the fierce voice had already been transformed into a relaxed "do you think I really go out to play?"

Cloud thousand dream is smiling to say "hard cousin!"

Seeing that someone loves him at last, at least he knows how to comfort himself verbally. Xia houqin's heart suddenly warms, his eyes turn to Yun qianmeng, and he laughs happily and says, "my sister-in-law is very polite, my family, how can I say it hard? I have let the bodyguard move those things into the house, but I don't know what my sister-in-law wants them to do? "

Xia houqin's curious light immediately amused Yun qianmeng, but she was selling the key with a smile on her lips, "tomorrow's cousin will know!"

Say, cloud thousand dream then turn the eye to Chu Fei Yang to open mouth "I advance to prepare!"

See cloud thousand dream to do something, Chu Feiyang is light nod, but still some reluctant to say "don't be too tired!"

"Don't worry!" Gently release the hand held by Chu Feiyang. Cloud qianmeng nods to Xia houqin and leads Mu Chun into the main house of Nanyuan!

They watched cloud qianmeng enter the room. Xia houqin took back his sight and said, "have you seen cloud crane? The boy didn't know what to think. Since LV Xin's dog found out our relationship, he ran to the inn again! Even so, I'm afraid I can't eliminate the doubts in the deputy's mind! Besides, I've already said that you can hold everything, but he can't be stubborn! "

Chu Feiyang listened carefully to Xia houqin's report, but after listening to his last words, he picked up the tip of his brow slightly, smiled a little at the bottom of his eyes, and said, "Oh? I didn't expect to play such a big role? When did my cousin say that? "

Seeing Chu Feiyang's face as warm as snow, Xia houqin didn't notice the frozen edge of his eyes, so he said, "after entering the city! Although Rong Yunhe is good at business, sometimes he is really stubborn and terrible! "

"After entering the city?" But Chu Feiyang is repeating Xia houqin's words!

Very good, when they go to the city, they are in Yajian with their dreams. It seems that the person who makes them sneeze is Xia houqin who has nothing to lose in front of them! It's not easy to have time to be alone with dream, but it's destroyed by my own cousins. It's even worse that I'm forced to drink hot tea. At this time, the inner garment is still not dry, good, very good!

Whoosh! The soft sword twined around his waist immediately turned into a sharp sword, and Chu Feiyang stared at Xia houqin with a sneer and said in a deep voice, "it's been a long time since I've loosened my muscles! Let's have a good fight today! "

At the end of the speech, the long sword with cold light flashed in his hand stabbed Xia houqin

"Ah? Why? " A painful exclamation came out of xiahouqin's mouth. When he didn't understand the reason, the cold light was close to his eyes. Xiahouqin was so scared that he dodged a sword, quickly drew out a long sword to resist Chu Feiyang's second wave of attack. At the same time, he asked "why?"! I just came back! "

But the answer to him was more and more fierce and tricky attacks, which made xiahouqin shut his mouth immediately, peeped at Chu Feiyang's lips with a bad smile, and cried out badly. He dared not take it lightly any more, but focused on dealing with the inexplicable angry man in front of him

"Princess, why did the prince and the prince suddenly practice martial arts in the courtyard?" The sound of fighting in the courtyard also disturbed the people in the house. Yingqiu stood by the window and looked at the two people who were fighting fiercely outside. He asked incomprehensibly!

"Ignore them! It's dry and dry, maybe they need to be relieved! " Cloud qianmeng's eyes just glanced out of the window lightly, and then took back their eyes. They were extremely relieved to let them fight outside!

Chu Feiyang is not a man of discretion, and Xia houqin is not a soft persimmon either. Maybe they are dueling martial arts!

"Princess, what are these?" Mu Chun is under the command of Yun qianmeng to open the paper box that was just moved into the house. However, the objects in the paper box are surrounded by several girls curiously. Even Yuan Dong, who was originally lying on the reclining chair, straightened up and looked this way!

See these four girls a curious baby's appearance, cloud qianmeng is the corner of the mouth smiling came over, casually take out an object inside, take it to play on the hand for a while, this just opened "remember the numbers I taught you to write in the past?"

"Remember!" Several girls nodded together, but the confusion at the bottom of their eyes was more intense!

"Muchun goes to prepare the pen and ink. Let's write the numbers from one to one hundred on it later!" Looking at the appearance of several girls, Yun qianmeng shakes his head and chuckles, but orders things very quickly!

"Yes!" Mu Chun quickly walked into the inner room, took ink, paper and inkstone from the desk, put the four treasures of the study on the desk together with Ying Qiu, and then poured the water into the inkstone to grind the ink slowly!Yunqianmeng asked Yingxia to take out all the objects in the paper box and put them on the table. He put the one in his hand on the table, held the brush that had been dipped in ink in his right hand, and gently wrote a "one" on the white paper!

"Princess, what's the use? It's a bit like the fan we use in our daily life, but there's no fan that can only write one number. Besides, we can't use it all! " Looking at that kind of fan, Mu Chun just wrote a word, chuckling!

Smell speech, cloud thousand dream can't help smiling, lightly blow the ink on the white paper, wait until dry, then put it into the paper box, "tomorrow will be used, finish quickly!"

"Yes!" Three girls immediately came back together. One was in charge of grinding ink, and the other two were just like cloud qianmeng, holding a brush and writing numbers on the white paper!

But the two people in the hospital are still fighting hard to give up

"Whoo!" After a turn from the tree, Xia houqin was covered with leaves. He was panting on the tree trunk and breathing hard. He had no appearance of the jade tree facing the wind!

"Chu Feiyang, where did my prince offend you? I'll kill you when I meet you. If I have some weaknesses, you can't expect the Xiahou people to help you! " He stared at Chu Feiyang, who was fresh and floating, and Xia houqin was also a little jealous of this man's martial arts. Obviously, they had turned around the tree 50 times at the same time, but why Chu Feiyang didn't touch the leaves on his body, but he was so embarrassed!

What's more, although the sword in Chu Feiyang's hand didn't hurt him at all, it can be seen that his clean robe has been separated by countless openings by Chu Feiyang's sword. Where is there any respect for the prince of Xia Hou?

Chu Feiyang, however, was carefree and slightly shaking his wrist. The long sword, which was just as hard as iron, was also cleverly wrapped around his waist, forming a decoration on his body!

Only when Chu Feiyang glanced at xiahouqin, he said, "Xi Lin, send Prince Xiahou back to Dongyuan!"

After speaking, he saw Chu Feiyang turn around and walk into the main room without hesitation!

"Did I offend him?" Apprentice Lin asks himself to leave. Xia houqin's index finger points to him and asks in a whisper. In his mind, it's the same move when he confronts Chu Feiyang. I'm afraid that if Chu Feiyang is serious, he can only barely save a small life with all his strength. But I just don't understand. Suddenly, what happened to Chu Feiyang? Why did he look for a good match?

Xi Lin is also thinking about why when he was just in Yajian, the prince would stare at himself with such cold eyes. Did he do anything wrong?

"Prince, please come back!" Some sympathetically looked at xiahouqin's damaged clothes, and Xi Lin spoke seriously!

Xia houqin is a trainee of Lin's one-sided appearance. He knows that it's impossible to think about what Xi Lin said. He can only touch his nose and find himself out of Nanyuan!

"What is this for?" Looking at the busy people in the room, Chu Feiyang asked curiously!

Yun Qian dreamed that he came in, he put down his brush, looked up and down at him, and saw that his clothes were neat and undamaged, so he said with a smile, "numbering!"

Then he picked up the brochure he was writing and pointed it out to Chu Feiyang. "Give the number of the merchants who are going to participate in the mining right of jade mine tomorrow, and then issue the number plate to let them enter the Yamen for legitimate competition!"! Just to get this number plate, I need some strength. I have listed the top 500 merchants with the strongest strength! These selected merchants are not only strong, but also willing to compete for the mining right of jade mine! But delete some other weak merchants, which can avoid people deliberately making trouble because they can't compete, and avoid the scene out of control caused by too many participants! "

Chu Feiyang saw that she was so careful that he did these things himself. He took a small half of the brochures written by Yun qianmeng and sat down. He took the pen on the desk and continued to write, "go to have a rest! I'll take the rest! "

Yun qianmeng smiled quietly, but did not listen to Chu Feiyang's arrangement to go to rest alone. Instead, he read out a string of merchants' names and numbers, and let Chu Feiyang listen and write. There was no room for cooperation between the two. In less than half a column of incense, Chu Feiyang wrote all the names!

"Dream, you specially write down the names of all people, and mark their main business. It must have other uses!" It seems that it's just a thick booklet, but it's the richest group of people in Xichu. Chu Feiyang Duan won't believe that yunqianmeng did it for fun!

Seeing Chu Feiyang has seen his intention. Yun qianmeng leads him back to the inner room and gives up the space in the lobby to some busy girls, so that Chu Feiyang won't make them uncomfortable there!

"Among them, there are those who deal in oil and grain, cloth and wood. It seems that there are only 500 people, but they are all giants in all walks of life in Xichu. If they master their information, they will benefit us without any harm! After all, if the imperial court is going to fight, it is necessary to buy the raw materials of weapons and clothes from the people. Although they are not as powerful as their families, they are more or less linked with the imperial court! " Push open the wooden window, let the sunlight sprinkle into the inner room, cloud qianmeng turns the fan in his hand and opens in a low voice!"You mean to know where they are?" Slowly understand why cloud thousand dreams do this, Chu Feiyang holds her small hand playing with the fan and asks softly!

Hearing the meaning of Chu Feiyang's words, Yun qianmeng nodded slightly, and the solemnity of his eyes was unfolded in front of Chu Feiyang without any disguise, "just to prepare for a rainy day, just hope that everything is more than I think!"

"Dream, thank you!" It was supposed to be his own business, but Yun qianmeng thought of all of them. Chu Feiyang's eyes were soft like water, but he didn't get angry because Yun qianmeng thought more than he did. There was always a place with the softest in his heart. He kept a little bit of what Yun qianmeng had done for him, and wrapped these heartwarming warmth with a love net firmly!

"What kind of stupid thing? Do we need to thank each other? " The fan in his hand gently patted Chu Feiyang's forehead, and Yun qianmeng chuckled!

"By the way, cousin? How did you two fight in the hospital just now? " Didn't see the curious Xia houqin coming in, but Yun qianmeng asked curiously!

"Shh, don't talk, let me hug you!" But Chu Feiyang gently pulled his arm, pulled the people who had been sitting beside him into his arms, holding them firmly and gently. He didn't want to hear the name that made him unhappy when he was moved!

The next day, Chenshi, Youzhou yamen gate!

The scale of the jade mine in Youzhou is amazing!

Before Chenshi arrived, there was a great uproar outside the Yamen of Youzhou. All the merchants who came to participate in the competition for the mining right of jade mines rushed to the Yamen early in the morning. They all stood outside the Yamen to communicate with each other. At the same time, they were anxiously waiting for Han shaomian to let the Yamen open!

In addition, there are many local people coming to watch in groups. After all, this jade mine belongs to their Youzhou. With the help of Xie's family, they naturally want to know what happened!

"Why don't you see the richest man in Jiangcheng? A few days ago, I saw him eating in a temporary inn! How come he hasn't come yet? Did you sleep? " A businessman looked for some people, but did not see the richest man in Jiangcheng who had spoken a few days ago, so he asked people around him!

"I really didn't see him! But wouldn't it be better if he wasn't here? We have one less opponent! " When others heard the man's surprise, they also stood on tiptoe to find a circle in the crowd. After they were sure that they did not see the richest man in Jiangcheng, they began to gloat!

"Alas, I advise you not to be too happy! I have heard that yesterday's son of Rong's family also came to Youzhou. I'm afraid that the eyes of Rong's family are also on these jade mines! " At this time, an old man in his sixties slowly opened his mouth, only to see him stroking his beard, with a trace of obvious worry at the bottom of his eyes!

"Rong family?" When they heard him, they were all surprised!

"The Rong family in the capital? Have you left the Rong family of the two concubines? " The conversation and laughter on the faces of all the people immediately turned into dignified. If Rong family intervened, they were afraid that there would be no hope for them! Just, who would have thought that Rong family would hear the wind coming?

"Yes, in addition to the Rong family in the capital, who else is there in Xichu? I heard from the young man at home. When he went out yesterday, he saw the general at the gate of the city saying hello to a boy on horseback! And the young man's white hair! If you think about this identity and appearance, who else can it be besides Rong Yunhe of Rong family? " The old man continued to speak, but the wrinkles between the eyebrows were gradually deepened!

Hearing the old man's affirmative answer, the pot exploded outside the Youzhou Yamen. Everyone counted thousands of yuan, but I didn't expect that Rong's family would come. If Rong's family did it, would their hope be lost?

"Look, isn't he?" Just then, a young man pointed to Rong Yunhe, who was riding a horse not far away, to remind him in a low voice!

For a while, everyone's eyes turned to Rong Yunhe. He was sitting on the horse's back in a royal blue robe, but the white hair, which was more dazzling in the sun, hurt everyone's eyes!

It's really Rong family!

People unconsciously let go of a way to let Rong Yunhe come to yamen smoothly!

Countless eyes stared at the young man on the horse back, but he saw Rong Yunhe calmly led the young man off the horse back, and then stood at the yamen gate like other people, waiting for the government to open the door!

After the arrival of Rong Yunhe, all the voices gradually turned small. The whispers of people in pairs raised their eyes to peep at the indifferent Rong Yunhe. They seemed to want to find some clues from his indifferent expression!

"Young master!" Four son tie good horse to return to allow cloud crane's side!

"Ready?" Looking at the people in front of them with cool eyes, Rong Yunhe asked quietly. His calm expression made many store generals admire him from the heart. On this side, they knew that Rong family could become the richest man in Western Chu, and it was also a powerful place that ordinary people could not reach. Looking at this, it was admirable!

For a time, the atmosphere outside the yamen gate seemed eerie and gloomy with the arrival of Rong Yunhe. Until the sound of a door opening came, people's attention was totally diverted!When the Yamen's gate was opened, people saw two yamen servants move out a table and a chair, and then they put four treasures of the study on it, while the Yamen's master came out immediately, and said in a loud voice, "everyone, I'm the Yamen's master! I think you are all merchants who came to participate in jade mining right and registered in Yamen some days ago! Our yamen of Youzhou has been screened and selected 500 merchants from you to participate in the competition. Those who will report their names will come to me to collect the number plate! "

At the end of the speech, the master sat down at the desk, took out the booklet written by Chu Feiyang and Yun qianmeng yesterday, and began to name people!

However, his words aroused a thousand waves, which caused a storm among all merchants. Everyone did not understand what the government was selling, not only 500 people were allowed to participate, but also what number plate?

What's the number plate? It's really unheard of!

The eyes of all the people turned to Rong Yunhe in unison, but they found that his face was indifferent and they couldn't find any other expression!

With the entry of the registered merchants, those unsuccessful merchants can only stand outside the Yamen and pay attention to the situation inside like the people in Youzhou!

I saw that the originally spacious yamen courtyard had been neatly placed with 500 stools. With the seating of 500 people, Han shaomian, who had been sitting behind the desk, stood up and walked calmly to the public. Lang said, "I'm Han shaomian, the Minister of the Ministry of military, and I'm ordered by the emperor to come to Youzhou to manage everything! In the event of Xie's family, our official and the king of Chu agreed to compete fairly for the mining right of the jade mine, so today's selection was held, hoping to select powerful and conscientious merchants for Youzhou! "

"Good!" Before Han shaomian finished, he heard the applause and praise from the people outside!

"What's the use of this number plate? How are adults going to choose? " Although the common people applauded, but the hearts of the five hundred merchants here are seven up and eight down. So far, they are all trying to understand how the government intends to do it! So there are anxious merchants to ask!

As soon as the man made a noise, other merchants also followed him to ask questions. For a while, the quiet courtyard became noisy, and people were all competing to question Han shaomian!

Han shaomian raised his hand slightly and suppressed all the voices, but he said calmly, "this number plate is in the hands of all people. It has your number on it, which corresponds to the name recorded in the master's manual! And we are taking the way of auction this time! What is auction? It's to auction the mining right of jade mine to you. Those with high price will get it! The winning merchants have the right to mine jade, and the jade and ore mined belong to you, but they must pay money and tax to the court on time every year according to the Western Chu laws and regulations! And the way of auction is that the government gives a relatively lowest price. All of you raise the number plate in your hand and ask for a higher price than the lowest price. The one with the highest number can have the mining right of jade mine! Here, I would like to remind you, please do what you can, and don't increase your offer because of the competition for the moment. Once such a situation is found, I will expel him! "

As soon as this statement came out, there was a sudden uproar. All the people were whispering to each other. I don't understand why the government wanted to be so complicated!

"Mr. Han, why bother? What we have is silver. It's not more convenient to buy it at one price directly? " A wealthy middle-aged man shouted!

"It's just for the sake of fairness! We come from all over Xichu, we will naturally provide fair competition! I have made it clear what I want to say and what I should say. If you have any questions, please raise them. The auction will begin soon! " At the end of the speech, Han shaomian glanced at everyone in the room and calmly waited for the next round of questioning!

At this time, in the wing room of Yamen hall, Yun qianmeng and Chu Feiyang are sitting in it, clearly watching what happened in the courtyard!

Seeing the confident and calm smile in the eyes of cloud thousand dreams, Chu Feiyang also smiled "thanks for your idea!"

"It's more fair than letting the government name the people who want to dig! Even if they lose, these merchants have nothing to say. They are not strong enough. How can they blame others? What's more, to accommodate the strength of the family, we will not be disappointed! And we arranged for Han shaomian to auction out the jade mines with poor color first, so that a group of merchants would be wiped out, followed by the jade mines with medium color, and then a group of merchants would be eliminated! In the end, it's the jade mine with the best quality and the highest starting price. In this way, people will think more carefully and decide more carefully, and the chance of winning will be greater. No one else will criticize it! Even if emperor Yuqian asks about it in the future, we don't have to deal with it! " Yun qianmeng put the hot tea just poured in front of Chu Feiyang, which was just said, with a smile between the eyebrows emitting a dazzling light, but with a rare intelligence!

"I can't imagine that the princess has such a talent. It's really admirable!" At this time, xiahouqin came in wearing a dark green robe, only to see him glare at Chu Feiyang, then pull out a stool and sit down, laughing at what happened outside!

Yun Qian dreamed that Xia houqin had come and poured a cup of tea for him with a smile, but he didn't ignore the contest between the eyes and eyebrows of the two people. He was amused, but he didn't ask questions. He politely replied to Xia houqin, "it's just a small skill, but I hope my cousin doesn't laugh!""Small skills? If it's a small skill, then we can't put our tricks on the table! " Seeing the humility of cloud thousand dreams, Xia houqin shakes his head smilingly, but his eyes always stare at Rong Yunhe, who is sitting among five hundred people, "I don't know when he will do it!"

At this time, the auction was officially started in the courtyard. Han shaomian sat behind the desk with a solemn face, while the master was holding a thick volume, telling all the merchants about the annual output and quality of the jade ore to be auctioned!

The merchants listened carefully. Their faces were all cautious, and their hearts were measuring the benefits this jade mine would bring to their families!

After reading some basic information, the master saw a yamen servant holding a piece of jade from the jade mine for merchants to read!

However, some merchants have not been exposed to jade at all. How can they tell the difference between the quality of jade and stone?

But these merchants are also extremely smart. Although they can't distinguish the quality of jade, they can observe people's expressions, and then analyze the answers they want to know from other people's expressions!

At this time, the most eye-catching is Rong Yunhe. Most of the eyes in the hospital are focused on Rong Yunhe, waiting for him to see what expression it shows!

However, such a opportunistic way has never appeared in Rong's dogma! Even if he won't bid for the jade mine, Rong Yunhe is still observing and studying it very carefully when he gets the jade. His concentrated look makes people confused. They don't understand why the jade with poor appearance can attract the attention of Rong's eldest grandson!
