Prince Shen of time travel

I haven't seen Xuan Yuanzhi for some days. At first glance, Shen Hexi didn't know him. He vaguely remembered the young man who was hunted down in the forest. Now such majesty makes people feel a little scared.

Afraid of the peat, Shen Hexi pinched himself. He didn't know what Xuan Yuanzhi was doing, why was he full of hostility, and he could feel Liang Soso even when they were separated by several meters.Shen Hexi glanced worriedly at the happy Xia Ziming next to him, aren't you afraid of such a person sleeping next to you at night?

"I don't know why brother Yuan is looking for me?" Shen Hexi asked with a smile while holding a delicate teacup.In order to meet him in Dunliang City, he had waited here for half a year, and finding him must not be easy.

"My lord is still so straightforward." The corners of Xuan Yuanzhi's lips curled up slightly, showing a slight smile, and continued, "I've known you for so long, and I'm afraid my lord still doesn't know my surname is Xuanyuan. I'm not an ordinary businessman from Chiyan Kingdom .”

When he opened his mouth, Mr. Xia Ziming froze for a moment. What does this mean?Does he have another identity?Why hasn't he mentioned it to him for so many years, and isn't Xuanyuan the surname of Chiyan Kingdom?

"I won't say much about the past. Thanks to the help of the prince, otherwise I would not have the chance to become the emperor of the Chiyan Kingdom. With the grace of saving my life, I came to Dunliang City. Of course, I want to conclude an alliance with Qingmu. I hope that our two countries will live in peace forever." Xuan Yuanzhi glanced at Shen Hexi and turned to Xia Ziming and said, "But staying in Dunliang City for a long time is not for state affairs. Ziming, you should understand my intentions. This time I will go to Yongan City Seeing Li Baihan, I will go down to the country to hire you, and I will marry you back to Chiyan Kingdom to be my emperor."

When Xuan Yuanzhi was talking, he gently held Xia Ziming's slightly trembling fingers, and Shen Hexi rolled his eyes over there. It turned out that he was only indifferent to others, and he was very gentle to his own people.

As for Xuanyuan Zhi's status as emperor, he didn't take it seriously at all, so what if you are the emperor, I am the biggest in Dunliang City.

Xia Ziming didn't know if he was angry or too excited and didn't speak for a long time, but Shen Hexi spoke first, "Since the alliance is formed, shouldn't His Majesty the Emperor go to Yong'an City to find the Emperor of our country? Why did you come to this remote town like me?"

"My lord is so humble. You have opened up the nearest trade channel between Chiyan and Aoki. In less than half a year, your place will become the most prosperous city in the northwest, or even in the whole of Aoki. I, the new emperor who has just ascended the throne, have to Let me worship you on this mountain first." Xuanyuanzhi said lightly.

As the emperor of a country, of course he wanted to make his country more prosperous.Now that Snow Country has been annexed by the two countries, they have become neighbors. For future development, it is best to form an alliance.After the alliance, the trade between the two countries has been frequent, and the residents of Chiyan Kingdom who live at the bottom of society will have a way out.

Chiyan Country is a coastal country. Although their land is vast, there are not many good fields, especially near the coast, where there are saline-alkali lands everywhere, which are not suitable for planting.For so many years, the Chiyan Kingdom has been importing a large amount of food from surrounding countries and hoarding it, fearing that any disaster will happen suddenly.

"His Majesty the Emperor thinks highly of this king." Shen Hexi complained silently in his heart, Xuanyuanzhi wanted to borrow his way.This old fox must have known for a long time that when the road is repaired, he will set up checkpoints here to collect taxes.

At the beginning of the road construction, Shen Hexi had already made up his mind that he would be the king blocking the road, and he would do nothing in the future, just sit in the palace and collect money.When he was on a boat before, he knew very well that the tariffs for entering and leaving the Celestial Dynasty were very high.

The purpose of Xuanyuanzhi looking for Shen Hexi is very clear, that is, when their caravans come to Dunliang City in the future, although they will pay the same taxes as other countries, Dunliang City will export no less than 20% of the crops to Chiyan Kingdom every year. Ten thousand catties, of course, the more the better.

The reason why he didn't ask Shen Hexi to help him reduce the tax was also unavoidable. Shen Hexi's business route had just opened, and if he engaged in differential treatment, Shen Hexi might not agree.Instead of bringing something that doesn't make sense, it's better to bring something that can be negotiated.

20 catties of grain is not a large amount, but it can completely solve part of the pressure on the Chiyan Kingdom. Although the Chiyan Kingdom is now powerful, the landlord's family has no surplus food. His family has a big business and can get more.

Of course, Shen Hexi will not let Xuanyuan Zhi take advantage of it for no reason. You want me 20 catties of grain, and I want you 20 catties of iron ore. Anyway, Chiyan Country produces iron ore, which is nothing.

Good guy, 20 catties of iron ore, Shen Hexi really dared to speak, Xuanyuan Zhi gritted his teeth and shouted in his heart.The two drank several pots of tea, and Shen Hexi didn't let go. Finally, Xuanyuanzhi saw that Xia Ziming, who was beside him, wanted to leave, so he agreed cruelly.

Anyway, he only said 20 catties of iron ore, so he should send him some poor quality iron ore.Xuanyuanzhi thought to himself.

Anyway, he only said he wanted 20 catties of grain, and he stared at me when I gave him old grain that hadn't sprouted.Shen Hexi slandered.

In this way, the two were calm on the surface, secretly thinking about each other, and ended the meeting happily.After that day, Shen Hexi didn't see Xia Ziming for several days, and he didn't know how Xuanyuanzhi coaxed him. Anyway, when the two of them set off for Yong'an City, Xia Ziming was no longer angry.

Xuanyuan Zhi left, but left many people here to continue to discuss the trade between the two countries with Shen Hexi.The relationship between them is not just as easy as grain and iron ore.

As soon as Shen Hexi came back, he and Linghu were discussing matters in the study all day long, and the trade route was about to open. Before long, a large number of merchants would flood into Dunliang City. The laws and regulations here still need to be improved, and the For specialty products, he will send more people to enclose land and mines, and don't let those businessmen come and make money away.

Especially for the two nearby amber mines, he made arrangements early on. These things are much more valuable than iron mines. The batch of amber jewelry he shipped to Chiyan Kingdom before made him a palace. Now that the business road is about to open, these amber mines are worth as much as gold mines.

Another morning, there were many people sitting in Shen Hexi's study room, all of them were wise men who served in his palace.They got together today to report to Shen Hexi.

Just after the summer harvest, Shen Hexi was holding a plate of ledgers, smiling from ear to ear.The amount of food handed in this season is simply staggering. It seems that Jiang Yun has done a lot during his absence.

"I said Jiang Yun, you are really talented. How did you cultivate so much farmland?" Shen Hexi laughed.

"I don't dare to take credit for this. I have to thank Mr. Gongshang. If there is no guidance from him, I will not be able to plan the agricultural and industrial planning." Jiang Yun cupped his hands.

Since Shen Hexi came here, he has set up a farming department in the palace to manage all villages and towns in Dunliang Mansion. Land division, crop planting, and even livestock breeding are all managed by this farming department.There are many positions in the Agricultural Department. Although some people do not have official positions, they are there only by name, but they have higher salaries than officials.Gongshang Yongping is such a person.

He knows astronomy from the top and geography from the bottom, and he is a great figure in the farming department. Many village plans, and even the selection of the village chief, are all handled by him.

This gentleman, Shang Yongping, looks like he is in his 30s. He always wears a gray cloth gown. He is tall and tall, with healthy wheat-colored skin.At ordinary times, Gong Shang Yongping is informal and doesn't like to talk.

But those who are familiar with him know that Gongshang Yongping is very enthusiastic. If you ask him for something, as long as he can help, he will definitely help.He is a more rigorous person when it comes to presiding over work. He would never smile like Jiang Yun in a meeting like this.

The expressionless Gongshang Yongping saluted Shen Hexi.Shen Hexi asked him some questions, and he answered them all.The two talked a few words before he suddenly remembered that Fang Qianchen seemed to live in the same yard as him, and he didn't know if he could get along with him.

"My lord, the business road has been repaired for more than a month. When will we post a notice to the outside world and announce it to the world." Jiang Yun asked.

"It's time to tell the world." Shen Hexi raised his eyebrows. He has been very busy this month. All kinds of taxes have to be calculated in advance, and the town outside Dunliang City, which is specially used for businessmen, has just been built. He had to think about how to collect rent for the warehouses in this town and the streets.He believes that it won't be long before these things will become extremely popular.

"On the 29th of this month, you have someone post the notice. All the big families and merchants, you send a piece of our printed brochures. Let's say that on the ninth day of September, our business route will be officially opened, and invite them to come. Participate in the opening ceremony." Shen Hexi instructed.

"Subordinates understand." Jiang Yun said.

The booklet marked all the commodities that can be transported through the commercial road, and the tax for which commodities paid more was clearly recorded in the book.There is also a map in this booklet, which clearly marks the passing post stations from Dunliang City to Haiyan City in Chiyan Kingdom.Of course, in the most eye-catching position, it is written that it only takes two and a half months to transport grain from Dunliang City to Haiyan City by horse-drawn cart.This is two-thirds shorter than taking the sea route.The time spent by sea is enough to run twice by land.Over the past year, the money earned by these big merchants has not only doubled or tripled.

Shen Hexi earns money in Dunliang City and builds his own kingdom. Li Baihan, who is far away in Yongan City, can only receive one letter from Dunliang City a week. Sometimes it is not written by Shen Hexi himself, but written by Yan Nu .

Especially when Xuanyuan Zhi said in front of civil and military officials in the court that he wanted to marry Xia Ziming as the emperor, he was in a bad mood. Why Xuanyuan Zhi could blatantly marry the emperor, but he had to look forward and backward, he It's no worse than Xuanyuan Zhi.

So Li Bohan sent a letter to Shen Hexi, asking him when he could return to Yong'an City to marry him, and the lines were full of sour vinegar.

It's a pity that this letter fell like a stone, and there was no reply at all after half a month.
