Chapter 43 Huge Loans

A new haze stopped, and the temperature dropped sharply, forcing people to add clothes to keep warm.

However, this year's winter was much warmer than usual.Before this drop in temperature, people were still wearing light clothing, and the temperature was about the same as in early spring.Just after this winter rain, people ushered in the coldest season of the year, and they had to put on heavy cotton coats.

As the weather gets colder, the Spring Festival is getting closer.The streets and alleys began to become more and more lively, and the familiar atmosphere of the New Year slowly recovered.

Just as the people of the whole country were happily preparing for the new year, the Turkic country in the north once again openly provoked at the border of Daxing country.The combat effectiveness of the Turkic Kingdom is particularly strong. Although the country is not as vast as Daxing, and the population is not as large as Daxing, its military strength is far superior to Daxing.

Today the world is divided into three parts, with Xing, Xia and Turks fighting against each other.Daxing had the largest territory and the largest population, followed by the Xia Dynasty and the Turks at the end.However, the Turks' bravery and war skills have changed the dissatisfaction between the Xing Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty for hundreds of years. The three countries are using the most cautious foreign policy to maintain the rare peace, and peace is one of the most effective ways. .

Right now the Turks are deliberately destroying the boundary markers on the border between the two countries. It is clear that they have bad intentions and deliberately provoke troubles.

However, Emperor Xing finally chose to forbear, turning a blind eye to this provocation, and naturally temporarily avoided a big battle.

As an ordinary citizen, Wei Zhi obviously didn't realize what kind of premeditation was behind this small provocation, and what kind of bloody storm it would cause in the near future.She is still the same, constantly busy in order to make money.

After half a month of research with Moye, Wei Zhi finally decided to cooperate with Moye, both in the breeding industry and the catering industry.However, due to the water and soil conditions in Luzhou, the northern theory cannot be used, so Wei Zhi and Moye discussed and decided to engage in aquaculture, and the food and beverage area focused on special seafood and game.At the beginning, it is not necessary to make drastic changes. The two always thought that they should try a small knife first to see the effect, and then decide whether to expand on a large scale.

Moye then returned to the north to prepare funds and technical personnel, while Wei Zhi was in Luzhou to prepare for site selection.

Wei Zhi was so busy all day long that she was often dizzy from exhaustion.She finally understood that a person's energy is limited, and a bank is enough for her to fully turn around. Adding the semicolon in Chu County and some miscellaneous side jobs, and now adding Moyer's "Southern Plan", she really feels that she has no skills to spare. .

After checking the data, Wei Zhi was finally able to put down his pen and lean back on the chair to take a good rest.

"Wei Lang." Pei Shu came in holding Mrs. Tang.

"Princess." Wei Zhi sat up and waved to Pei Shu.

Pei Shu came over, handed Mrs. Tang to Wei Zhi, and stretched his head to look at the documents on the table.

"Wei Lang is so busy these days, he doesn't have time to accompany him." Pei Shu propped his hands on the table, tilting his head to look at Wei Zhi.

"It's been busy for a while, it'll be fine when the land is selected and the chores are done." Wei Zhi also realized that she really doesn't have much time to spend with Pei Shu these days, just like when the bank just opened, I can't say a few words in a day.

Wei Zhi went to hold Pei Shu's hand, but Pei Shu was caught by her hand, and he pulled it away mercilessly, saying in disgust, "Oh, I'm dead, hurry up, cover it."

"Oh." Wei Zhixin said reluctantly.

"Why are your hands so cold, but you don't wear enough clothes?" Pei Shu approached Wei Zhi, and started to look at Wei Zhi's clothes.

"A lot, a lot, it's just that I'm born with a cold body, and my hands and feet are cold in winter, no matter how much I wear." Wei Zhi chuckled lightly and said indifferently.

"What's wrong with this? The cold hands and feet are not because you haven't done a good job of keeping warm. It must be because you don't wear enough clothes. From tomorrow on, add more thick clothes. Later, I will ask someone to make you two pairs of thicker clothes." boots." Pei Shu grabbed Wei Zhi's skirt with both hands, and looked down at Wei Zhi.

With such considerate and caring care, how could Wei Zhi feel cold, he only felt that his whole body was unreasonably warm.

She put Mrs. Tang on the table and opened her arms to Pei Shu, who sat on her lap knowingly.

"The princess cares about Ziqing so much, Ziqing has been warmed up, not cold at all! Look, your hands are warm!" Wei Zhi was afraid that Pei Shu would not believe him, so he handed his hand to Pei Shu for inspection.

Pei Shu tried it, then pushed it away, and said: "You are poor, and your hands are hot because you covered Mrs. Tang, and you will say nice things to please me."

"The princess is my wife, if I don't please the princess, who will I please?" Wei Zhi said with a playful smile.

"Fuck you!" Pei Shu slapped Wei Zhi angrily and gave her a white look.

Wei Zhi laughed, hugged Pei Shu tightly to keep warm, and never forgot to please: "Princess, if you have nothing to do, you can run to me more, I have been facing these boring things all day long. , My head is about to explode! It’s better to see the princess, all the bullshit troubles will disappear, isn’t the princess my lucky star?”

Pei Shu gently held Wei Zhi's face, caressed it carefully, looked at Wei Zhi with sincere eyes, and said softly: "Wei Lang said that the princess is your lucky star, and that lucky star has something to ask for. Wei Lang nodded."

"What's the matter?" Wei Zhi became very curious.

Pei Shu wanted to ask, but he was embarrassed to open his mouth. After thinking about it, he asked sideways, "Does Wei Lang really love me?"

"Then there's no need to ask!" Wei Zhi said as a matter of course.

"Then you and I are husband and wife, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours, right?" Pei Shu continued to show off his innocence to Wei Zhi.

"Yes." Wei Zhi nodded without noticing.

"Then..." Pei Shu immediately showed a sly smile, "I want to borrow some money from Wei Lang."

"Borrowing money?" Wei Zhi was taken aback, and then laughed, "Didn't you just say that? Mine belongs to the princess, why don't you just borrow money and just take it away."

The majestic princess also had times when she was too cash-strapped.Back then, Wei Zhi was worried that after marrying Pei Shu, the family property would not be enough for her to squander.But looking at it now, it was just that she hadn't fallen in love at the time, and she loved money much more than Pei Shu.But now, she is willing to use money for the princess to squander. Firstly, it is because she is rich, and secondly, it is because her love for the princess is deeper than those external things.

"But this is not a small sum." Pei Shu cautiously probed.

Wei Zhi's attention was drawn to Pei Shu's reminder, could it be that this money is enough to overturn her Wei family business?Wei Zhi looked at Pei Shu suspiciously, and asked, "How much is that?"

Pei Shu slowly stretched out two fingers, with a harmless smile on his face.

"200 taels?" Wei Zhi asked with a smile, thinking that 200 taels is also considered money!

Pei Shu shook his head.

"That's... 2000 taels?" Wei Zhi took a deep breath and asked.

Pei Shu shook his head again.

"2 taels?!" Wei Zhi gasped, his eyes opened to the widest extent today.

"It would be better if there were a little more..." Pei Shu withdrew his finger guiltily, a little embarrassed.

Wei Zhi looked away, her mind is a little messed up now, and she needs to relax.

Pei Shu tactfully got off Wei Zhi's lap.

"Princess, 2 taels is really not a small sum, can you tell me what you want so much money for?" Wei Zhi asked inexplicably while supporting his aching head.

2 taels, what is the concept in the current society, it can buy dozens or even hundreds of houses like the Wei Mansion, and in Chu County, one can be rich, and one hundred thousand hectares of fertile land can be changed, which is enough for a family of four I can't eat it all my life...

Even though the princess spends as much money as he can, he can get 2 taels in one breath, which is really unimaginable for Wei Zhi.

"This money is not for my personal use. It is what the court wants." Pei Shu waved his hand hastily.

"Imperial court?" Wei Zhi was even more puzzled, "Does the imperial court want to levy such a huge tax for no reason?"

"Does Wei Lang know that the Turks harassed the border a while ago?" Pei Shu leaned on the edge of the table and asked.

"I know." Wei Zhi nodded, and quickly realized, "So it's a war?"

"Not yet." Pei Shu shook his head, "However, a fierce battle is inevitable. This time I swallowed my anger, for the next time I will fight to the death."

"So the Holy Majesty's requisition of this money is to recruit troops and expand the armed forces to prepare for a war from time to time?" Wei Zhi thought it through.

"Yes." Pei Shu nodded, and the face of the princess who has never cared about world affairs showed a look of concern for the country and the people, "The Turkic people have always been militaristic and rampant. They often violate our borders and make our borders unsafe. .Since the early years of the founding of the country, I lost a battle with the Turks. For so many years, I have been recuperating, and I have been holding back. This has further fueled the arrogance of the Turks. Now that several years have passed, I am not the same as before. A weak country that only promises to promise, just needs a little more time to prepare for the war, and then it can face the Turks head-on."

Wei Zhi listened to Pei Shu's words seriously, and was moved by it.Although she is a businessman, she still has some understanding of state affairs.It's just that the flames of war are ruthless. Once the war starts, no matter whether you win or lose, it will be the common people who will suffer.But if this battle is not fought, Daxing will always be bullied and threatened forever.Contradictory, Wei Zhi couldn't help sighing.

"The emperor first collects the funds for the early stage of the battle from the relatives of the emperor." Pei Shu walked behind Wei Zhi and pressed her shoulders, "Wei Lang is not the only one who has been squeezed out, so Wei Lang will not let it go." It's balanced."

"Did the prince also spend [-] yuan?" Wei Zhi thought for a long time, subconsciously wanting to compare.

"Hmm... the royal father probably needs more." Pei Shu said with his hands blunted.

Wei Zhi fell into thought again. 2 taels, her heart is bleeding, her Wei family's family has been hollowed out just like that.I don't know whether her old father under Jiuquan will praise her patriotism after hearing the news, or reprimand her for being a prodigal.

Before Wei Zhi could respond, Pei Shu squeezed her shoulder heavily, and said angrily, "Wei Ziqing, are you reluctant to part with this money?"

"I didn't say anything." Wei Zhi spread his hands innocently.

"I think you just can't bear it. You keep saying that you love me, but it's unreliable at critical moments." Pei Shu patted his ass on the chair next to him, crossed his arms and complained, "Money is small, but state affairs are big. Except, why settle down?"

Wei Zhi really admires the princess of her family, look, she is very honest, isn't that sentence about the righteousness of the family and the country, heroic feelings?At this time, the princess really didn't see the slutty spirit of the game world at all.

"I know all of this." Wei Zhi said patiently.

"The emperor is asking for money secretly. If you can't get it by then, it will not only disgrace your Wei family, but also disgrace me, and even disgrace Prince Ye's mansion!" Pei Shu said. Some stuttered, maybe impatient.

Wei Zhi sighed helplessly, walked in front of Pei Shu, knelt down, took Pei Shu's hand, and said truthfully: "Princess, it's not that I don't want to give it, I am naturally willing to contribute to our country. .But 2 taels...will drain me dry! By then, I will be penniless, how can I give the princess superior living conditions?"

To put it bluntly, Wei Zhi had 2 taels and didn't want to give it to him.

"It seems to make sense." Pei Shu agreed after thinking for a while.

Wei Zhi kept nodding his head beside him.

"So, princess, can we have a little less? It's fine if you want to, why waste all your wealth?" Wei Zhi raised his brows and rubbed Pei Shu's hands enthusiastically.

Pei Shu nodded thoughtfully again, and Wei Zhi thought that she had convinced the princess with his emotional and reasonable words, and began to secretly rejoice in his heart.But she never expected that the princess caught her by surprise.

"You have a good idea!" Pei Shu flicked Wei Zhi's forehead, "You are the emperor and a street vendor, can you bargain with me?"

Wei Zhi was like an eggplant beaten by frost, got up dejectedly, sat beside him, and sighed: "It's really the emperor's order!"

"That's it." Pei Shu looked at Wei Zhi clearly.

"Although it is not easy to be an emperor, there are some advantages to being an emperor." Wei Zhi figured out a truth.

"Huh?" Pei Shu slightly tilted his head.

"That's the power to do whatever you want! Who in the world dares to say no to what the emperor wants to do?" Wei Zhi's tone was not without complaints, but in the end he was reluctant to part with money.

Pei Shu laughed.

"What are you laughing at? Am I wrong?" Wei Zhi asked blankly.

"That's right." Pei Shu nodded in agreement, "Otherwise, why are so many people so eager for imperial power?"

"I want to be an emperor too! If I become an emperor, I can sit on all the wealth in the world, inexhaustible and inexhaustible, how happy it is!" Wei Zhi was very excited whenever he thought of this.

"You money junkie!" Pei Shu ruthlessly gouged out Wei Zhi's eyes, and then deliberately threatened, "Speaking such rebellious words, be careful that there are ears in the walls, and people who are interested will tremble out, and then my life will be lost."

Wei Zhi couldn't help feeling a shudder down his spine, and looked around vigilantly.Knowing that there was no one else around, he grimaced in frustration.

"Can't it be less?" Wei Zhi sighed, looking at the Princess pitifully.

"Why don't you go ask the emperor?" Pei Shu also imitated Wei Zhi's movements.

"..." Rolling eyes.

"Okay, Wei Lang, don't want to live like this, okay?" Pei Shu grabbed Wei Zhi's hand and comforted him patiently, "You can think about it from another angle, for example...you take this 2 taels For this princess, a peerless beauty?"

"Wow, princess, how dare you say such a thing!" Wei Zhi couldn't help showing disgust, and glanced at Pei Shu in disbelief.

The money is not the princess's money, so of course he doesn't feel bad about it, just like the time in Wuyang Mountain.

And the shame of the princess, tsk tsk tsk, it is truly peerless...

"Wei Ziqing, what do you mean? Is this princess not worth the 2 taels?" Pei Shu immediately turned cold, and slapped the table with her jade hands.

This is a proposition, and the answer must be unique.

"Of course it's not worth it!" Wei Zhi blurted out, and when Pei Shu's confidante was furious, he stopped in time and said, "I mean 2 taels is not worth it, my princess is a priceless treasure!"

As expected, Pei Shu immediately turned his anger into joy, grinning from ear to ear, annoyed Wei Zhi and said, "Damn it! You're glib!"

Although Wei Zhi had a smile on his face, his heart was like a thousand arrows piercing through his heart. The pain made her unable to eat or sleep peacefully for several days.
