Chapter 407

After half an hour, today's morning court meeting will end.

Li Er then announced his resignation and returned to Ganlu Hall to revise the memorial.

Yu Chihuan also took officials from Zhongshu Province back to the six departments of the three provinces to be on duty.

In order to obtain the nautical chart of Guano Island, Cheng Yaojin deliberately came to Zhongshu Province to wait for Yuchihuan!

The Cheng family has an ocean-going fleet, and Cheng Yaojin thinks that he can also send merchant ships to the guano island to pan for gold.

When Yu Chihuan returned to Zhongshu Province, he was immediately stopped by Cheng Yaojin.

"Young Prime Minister Yuchi, please stay!"

Cheng Yaojin greeted Yuchihuan with a smile on his face.

Yu Chihuan rolled his eyes at Cheng Yaojin, and said: "Cheng Zhijie, I know you are looking for me today because of bird droppings, but I advise you not to interfere with this matter!"

Cheng Yaojin was seen through by Yuchi Huan, not only did not blush, but he said confidently: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, Cheng's family and Yuchi's family are both generals, I am willing to share the profits of going to sea to dig out bird droppings with you equally!"

Yu Chihuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Cheng Zhijie, I have given His Majesty the nautical chart of Guano Island, you are taking food from His Majesty's mouth!"

Cheng Yaojin turned pale, and said, "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, besides this island of guano, are there any other islands with treasures?"

Hearing what Cheng Yaojin said, Yu Chihuan suddenly had an idea: "Cheng Zhijie, after hearing what you said, I really remembered that there are gold mines in some places!"

There are many gold mines in the world that have not yet been developed.

For example, San Francisco in later generations developed through gold rush.

Yuchihuan decided to hand over this undeveloped gold mine to Cheng Yaojin for development!
In terms of iron ore, it must be the most abundant in Australia and South America in later generations!
However, there is currently no shortage of iron ore in Datang, and there is no need to dig iron ore from thousands of miles away and return to Datang for smelting.

At present, the main currency of Datang is Kaiyuan Tongbao, which requires a lot of copper!
Yuchihuan is going to develop the Chilean copper mine of later generations.

In Datang Pure Copper and Kaiyuan Tongbao are equivalent!

This is equivalent to Yuchihuan sending someone to transport money back to Datang.

But this kind of thing can't be entrusted to Cheng Yaojin, otherwise there will be a catastrophe.

Overseas copper mines can only be mined by the Tang court.

This is Yuchihuan's future overseas mine development plan.

Now Yuchihuan will first transport the guano from Guano Island back to the Datang Fertilizer Field.

The gold mine in San Francisco was handed over to Cheng Yaojin.

When Cheng Yaojin heard Yuchihuan mention the gold mine, he took a deep breath and said, "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, the gold mine is not a trivial matter. Are you sure you want to tell the old man the location of the gold mine?"

Yuchihuan nodded and said yes: "Cheng Zhijie, I will provide you with the location of the gold mine, but you need to give half of the profit to Yuchi's family!"

"Little Chancellor Yuchi, I have agreed to your request!"

Cheng Yaojin laughed heartily and said, "Old man, write the contract now!"

After finishing speaking, Cheng Yaojin ran into Yuchihuan's office desk and started writing!
Yu Chihuan is also happy to see it succeed!

The ancients were still very contractual.

Yu Chihuan believed that Cheng Yaojin would not live up to his words.

After half a stick of incense, Cheng Yaojin wrote the contract between Cheng's family and Yuchi's family to jointly develop overseas gold mines!

This means that no matter how many gold mine sites Yuchihuan provides in the future, Cheng Yaojin will share half of the profits with Yuchi's family!
After reading the contract, Yu Chihuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Cheng Zhijie, you have self-knowledge, so I signed it!"

The next moment, Yu Chihuan signed his name on the contract, and then pressed his finger prints.

The contract between the Cheng family and the Yuchi family is in duplicate!
Yuchihuan and Cheng Yaojin each hold a contract to develop a gold mine.

Cheng Yaojin hid the contract in his arms, and said with a smile on his face: "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, can you give me the location of the gold mine now?"

Yu Chihuan nodded and said yes: "Cheng Zhijie, I will give you not only the nautical chart, but also the globe and compass used for navigation haha!"

Cheng Yaojin's eyes lit up, he never expected that Yuchihuan would even give the Cheng family a priceless globe!

"Thank you, Mr. Yuchi, for your trust in the Cheng family!"

Cheng Yaojin secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and Yuchihuan even sent out the globe, so this gold mine must exist.

Yuchihuan then drew a nautical chart of San Francisco according to the map on the globe.

After half a stick of incense, the nautical chart of San Francisco was drawn.

Yuchihuan checked the nautical chart and made sure there was no problem before handing it to Cheng Yaojin and saying: "Cheng Zhijie, look at the nautical chart. If you don't understand, just ask. Don't be embarrassed!"

Cheng Yaojin took the nautical chart and looked at it with a smile on his face.

The nautical chart of San Francisco is very detailed, and there are ocean currents in the Pacific Ocean to explain the situation, and merchant ships can go directly to San Francisco through ocean currents.

After reading the chart, Cheng Yaojin nodded in satisfaction and said, "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, this chart is easy to understand, the old man can understand it, and my family must understand it too!"

Yu Chihuan asked curiously: "Cheng Zhijie, the melon you're talking about is Cheng Chumo, right?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded and said in agreement: "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, Cheng Chumo has been with you for three years and is good at driving five-tooth boats. I am going to send him to San Francisco to dig gold!"

"Cheng Zhijie, Cheng Chumo is currently the general of Qianniuwei, will His Majesty allow him to leave his post without authorization?"

Yuchihuan asked Cheng Yaojin curiously.

Cheng Yaojin smiled honestly and said, "Prime Minister Yuchi, I will report Cheng Chumo's sick leave today!"

"Cheng Zhijie, you are committing the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Yuchihuan cast a contemptuous glance at Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin said confidently: "My family's ability to enter Qianniuwei depends entirely on my military merits. Your Majesty has long wanted to drive Cheng Chumo out of Qianniuwei. Your Majesty will definitely approve it!"

"Cheng Zhijie, since you insist on this, then I will wait for your good news!"

Yuchihuan no longer had a verbal argument with Cheng Yaojin.

"Young Prime Minister Yuchi, I'm off to work!"

After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, he hurried to Ganlu Hall.

Yu Chihuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "Cheng Zhijie, this old man, is really shameless!"

Soon, Cheng Yaojin's figure disappeared from Yuchihuan's eyes.

Yu Chihuan then returned to Zhongshu Province to review the memorial.

If there is a memorial that Yuchihuan disagrees with, Yuchihuan will criticize the memorial!
Half an hour later, Cheng Yaojin came to Zhongshu Province to look for Yuchihuan again.

Yuchihuan had no choice but to invite Cheng Yaojin to come in and talk.

Cheng Yaojin smiled all over his face and said, "Prime Minister Yuchi, His Majesty is going to give Cheng Chumo a year's sick leave haha!"

Sure enough, as Yu Chihuan expected, Li Er agreed to the sick leave that Cheng Yaojin helped Cheng Chu silently ask for!

Yu Chihuan couldn't laugh or cry: "Cheng Zhijie, you came to see me for the globe and compass, right?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded and said: "Little Chancellor Yuchi is worthy of his sharp eyes, I can't hide my thoughts from you!"

Yuchihuan immediately took out a globe from the system space, and said to Cheng Yaojin, "Cheng Zhijie, the globe is given to you, but you need to get the compass from Taimiao!"

Then Yuchihuan personally wrote a letter and handed it to Cheng Yaojin as a token.

Taimiao is currently under the jurisdiction of Li Chunfeng, a Yongman from Taichang Temple, and Li Chunfeng is in charge of the compass workshop!
Without Yuchihuan's approval, Cheng Yaojin would have no way to get the compass.

"Thank you, Prime Minister Yuchi!"

Cheng Yaojin put away Yuchihuan's approval slip, then picked up the globe, and happily left Zhongshu province.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin leaving with the globe in his arms, the officials of Zhongshu Province showed envious expressions.

Zhongshu Ling's eldest Sun Shunde's eyes were even brighter, but in the end he still didn't dare to ask Yuchihuan for the globe.
