Only Yang Zhen and Xiao Wenxuan were left in the room.
On Yang Zhen's face, a scar crosses the right face from the left. If ordinary people see it, they will be frightened.
It's just that Xiao Wenxuan didn't show any disgust. Instead, his eyes would soften when he stayed on the scar.
At that time, it was Yang Zhen who blocked him in the battlefield to leave this scar. Because of this, he trusted Yang Zhen so much.
"It's just the emperor. If it's really the second prince, I'm afraid it's the emperor who is in trouble."
Yang Zhen said suddenly.
Xiao Wenxuan nodded gently, and Yang Zhen talked about the key point of the problem. Even if the second prince could do it, the best result would be just as before. The big thing would become small, and the small thing would become small.
Over the years, he has dealt with the disputes between princes in this way. After all, it's all his flesh and blood, the palm and the back of his hand.
"There is no final conclusion on this matter. You'd better investigate it." Xiao Wenxuan said lightly.
Yang Zhen bowed to answer a voice is, left imperial study.
With a sigh, Xiao Wenxuan shook his head and murmured, "Erlang, don't force me to do it."
……
After leaving the palace, Xiao Ming went to King Yong's residence. As he thought, King Yong readily agreed to Xiao Ming's terms. The only reward was Xiao Ming's help in concealing the truth of the Jizhou war and 50 guns.
Compared with the trade agreement and 50 guns, this is nothing but a drizzle for Xiao Ming. Moreover, the contract he signed with King Yong is somewhat different, that is, the matter of mineral resources.
It is said that the fiefdom of King Yong has been extended to today's Shanxi, which is rich in coal resources.
In the agreement he signed, there were 12 regional coal mining rights. These 12 coal mines are famous high-quality open-pit coal mines of later generations.
Although there is coal near Qingzhou, the coal mine is not deep and the quality is not high. It costs a lot of manpower and material resources.
So he had been fighting with King Yong, and the Jizhou war gave him this opportunity, otherwise it would be really hard to deal with King Yong's character.
But now it's not the same. In his opinion, King Yong is not only fighting for himself, but also since he saw the power of artillery and muskets, he can't put it down. He wants to get these weapons, even if he sells pants, let alone some coal mines that nobody cares about.
After all, the amount of coal used in the state of Dayu is not large, and there is no need to mine many coal mines. These things are not valuable to King Yong, so it's better to exchange them for some practical things.
"Nephew, I signed this agreement. You can take whatever you like on the imperial uncle's fiefdom." King Yong laughed.
In King Yong's opinion, Xiao Ming is just a fool, but he would like to thank this fool, because Xiao Ming not only took four or five hundred thousand victims from his fiefdom to help him solve the famine problem, but also gave him artillery for a pile of worthless coal mines.
As for the free circulation of goods, he didn't care at all. Merchants were just pariah to him, and giving this treatment was just like an additional chamber of Commerce similar to imperial merchants.
"Uncle Sihuang is so cheerful. It really moves my nephew. If you don't say anything else, I'll give this to Uncle Sihuang as a gift." Xiao Ming put a box on the table.
The box opened and there was a shotgun inside. This is a shotgun.
"Nephew, is this the musket? Why not? "
King Yong had probably seen the suifa spear, but he didn't know the specific structure. However, he also knew that the spear was long, and the spear was too short.
"Uncle Sihuang, can my nephew give you ordinary things? It's just soldiers' guns. It's this kind of musket that symbolizes power and status. " Xiao Ming said.
King Yong immediately scratched his ears and cheeks with joy. He gave Xiao Ming a thumbs up, "it's better for your nephew to treat uncle Huang."
As he said this, King Yong picked up his musket and began to play with it.
Xiao Ming then introduced the usage of the musket to King Yong. After all, he helped him to fire the first shot and saw the power of the musket. King Yong loved it more and more.
After King Heyong confirmed the contents of the agreement, Xiao Ming went back to the palace.
When King Yong was finished, Xiao Ming was thinking about who to look for next. At this time, the king of Wei came again and agreed to the content of the agreement, but the precondition was to supply guns.
To this question, Xiao Ming naturally agreed that he didn't know how to practice the fire spear array. The fire spear in these people's hands was just like a burning stick.
What's more, the king of Chu is now secretly equipping with guns. Arming the king of Wei at this time can suppress these Southern vassal kings.
"My dear nephew, in order to make the treaty more specific, I'd better write this article into the treaty." The king of Wei was always worried about the firegun. After hesitating for a long time, he asked to write the firegun into the agreement.
"Since it's uncle Huang's request, my nephew will write it into it." Xiao Ming said with a smile, like a little fox.
As long as the treaty came into effect, he ruled the trade. A few guns were nothing.
After the agreement was redrawn and signed by Xiao Ming and the king of Wei, the trade agreement was basically settled.After dealing with the matter, the king of Wei said: "in addition to the firearm, it is said that there are hot air balloons for your nephew. When will you let uncle Huang open his eyes?"
"There's no need to wait. You can see it tomorrow morning." Xiao Ming said with a smile.
The next day, he went to the early court with the officials. As agreed, Xiao Wenxuan gave him the title of Prince Sanzhu, and ordered Qingzhou chamber of Commerce to enjoy the treatment of emperor merchant.
It seems that because of Xiao Ming's great contribution, the court was surprisingly quiet this time. No courtier opposed Xiao Wenxuan's decision.
But when he thought about it, he knew that these courtiers were secretly pleased, thinking that Xiao Wenxuan deliberately suppressed Xiao Ming and only gave him treatment. They didn't know that Xiao Ming and Xiao Wenxuan had agreed on this in advance.
"King Qi, it is said that you also used two powerful weapons in the Jizhou war. Can you show us?"
After announcing the reward, Xiao Wenxuan said with a smile that what he is looking forward to most today is this.
"Of course, things are outside the palace. Please allow them to come in."
"Sure." Xiao Wenxuan said.
At this time, Feng Deshui immediately called out: "it is said that the goods brought by the king of Qi entered the palace."
With his shouts, the voices rang out one by one and continued to the palace gate.
At this time, the carriage behind Luo Xin, who was waiting outside, said, "enter the palace."
Liang Yubin and he Cheng nodded and followed Xiao Huangmen to the palace.
At this time, Xiao Wenxuan and his ministers are waiting for them in the square in front of Chengqing hall.
"Rosin, let's go."
Xiao Ming said to Luo Xin and others.
Luo Xin nodded and immediately took out the gun from the box. Liang Yubin and he Cheng also began to prepare the balloon.
