Chapter 1640 Delay

Indeed, there is no road on the mountain, and the ropes are laid. There are special steps for several key sharp turns. A warehouse that can temporarily store grain and jade has been opened on the mountain.

On a mountain full of rocks, no one knows how hard it is to hammer and chisel every time. It seems simple facilities, dozens or hundreds of people have to risk their lives to work for more than half a month.

The current situation has been laid. It can be said that if someone changes to mine jade ore, they will directly "pick out ready-made ones".

Zheng Chunqiu was still half dead, weak and listless: "So what? The emperor..."

Suddenly, Zheng Chunqiu opened his eyes: "Fourth Prince, what do you think?"

Seeing that Zheng Chunqiu was willing to use his brain, the fourth prince said: "Is jade three cars or thirty cars? It is not calculated by quantity, but by how much it costs to sell. Are you right?"

The fourth prince told Zheng Chunqiu that he had told the emperor, and even added many details that he had thought of temporarily.

This time, Zheng Chunqiu's mind kept up with the pace of the Fourth Prince: "Working this way isn't it a fraud?"

The Fourth Prince: "What fake did you make? Where is the fake? Those stones were indeed chiseled from Yujing Mountain, right? Many stones do carry some jade meat, right? How to calculate fake!"

Zheng Chunqiu: "But, if we do this, others will know that it was ours when they think about it. When the jade caravan in front of the front, they will use the jade caravan to rush to the city. Who would have thought that it would be impossible?"

Fourth Prince: "So what if I think about it? The father has been controlling the batch of jade that Linyanghou has not released, and many businessmen are thinking about it!

I just talked about this method with my father, but he didn't say he didn't agree."

Zheng Chunqiu suddenly understood the meaning of the Fourth Prince: the merchant had a strong desire to buy; the emperor did not deny it.

"But..." Zheng Chunqiu was indeed a little moved, but hesitated even more: "The emperor did not say he did not agree, it doesn't mean he allowed it, right?"

The fourth prince stood up from the bathtub and looked towards Zheng Chunqiu: "Do you think the father can express his opinion directly in this way?

The jade has just been shipped back and has not been put into the warehouse yet, so we still have room for operation;

You also heard and saw along the way. At the end of the year, the disaster was still very serious. Money was needed everywhere, so the treasury would definitely be tight;

If you and I can quickly turn those ores into silver... I think my father also means using jade."

The jade that Chu Qing handed over was a resource that the emperor could directly control, just like those cotton fields.

Although "all under the sky is the king's land", for any dynasty, it only owns ownership, but control is shared with the aristocratic families that "co-governance".

The reason why the emperor was willing to appoint Chu Qing was because Chu Qing could open up resources that the emperor could directly control.

The emperor has never put the jade brought back by Chu Qing in the past on the market because Vos jade is harder and more delicate, richer in color, so the price is higher than that of Daxuan jade.

In the hearts of Daxuan people, jade is something that retains value than gold, and has a more mysterious spiritual meaning. Even choosing a family heirloom is "transmitting jade but not gold".

The emperor had the intention of using jade. He planned to use the jade handed over by Chu Qing as "emergency reserve gold" to use it to cage the money in the hands of merchants when the national treasury was not enough.

Thinking of this, Zheng Chunqiu also felt that what the Fourth Prince said was feasible. The jade he brought back had not been put into the warehouse yet. So, is it a chance to operate it if it is three cars of jade or a money worth thirty cars of jade.

"Just..." Zheng Chunqiu wanted to ask, even if the emperor felt that there were fewer jades, based on the emperor's attitude towards controlling jade, it would be safe to sell without the emperor's instructions.

The fourth prince was annoyed by such an undecided person and directly interrupted him: "But what's it! What's it?

Do you think you can commit crimes and make contributions without taking any risks? You think beautifully! Don’t talk about it, I dare not expect so much!

To tell you the truth, I am really unwilling to give up someone to take over the situation I have built up so much this year;

Yes, we don’t have the jade we got back from Lin Yanghou, but then again, maybe all the stones that were picked were lit by her. Even if we let her go now, she may not be better than your and my harvest!

The reason why I told you that I would sell the jade is simply because I returned to the palace this time. My father was angry that I would definitely not let me leave the palace again. I really didn’t have the chance to do this, so I would discuss it with you;

Otherwise, I will definitely do this alone so that my father can see my true abilities. I will never be willing to admit that my highness is worth only three carts of jade!

However, I can’t find anyone else to help me. If you don’t want to, I can’t do anything about it;

At that time, at most, I will be confined to my father, and then I will give this errand to others to get a bargain; but you are afraid that you will part today... Humph, there is no way to see you again!"

The latter words are indeed the truth of the Fourth Prince. If he wants to sell the jade, he can only pass through Zheng Chunqiu. Otherwise, if he returns to the palace and makes his father angry, he will really have no chance to run out.

Moreover, he didn't dare to leave this matter to his mother's family for help, as it was too conspicuous. The princes were harmonious on the surface, but they were fighting inside, staring at each other's movements.

Not to mention anything else, today when I entered the city, the emperor and the emperors were taken out of the city ten miles away. Is there such a deep brotherly love? Let's go and go!

Also, the second brother kept glanced at the convoy, thinking that who couldn't see it?

He was holding his anger in his heart, and Zheng Chunqiu's hesitant and stupid look, the Fourth Prince said something unpleasant and threatened.

However, this made Zheng Chunqiu decide: I did it!

Otherwise, what else can it be done? They are father and son, and the fourth prince cannot suffer much loss, but what about themselves? Are they really demoted to a corner? Can they still have the chance to return to Beijing?

The Yue family has collapsed. If you don’t tie it to the fourth prince, who else can you rely on?

***************

An inconspicuous small village in Ji County has been very lively these days.

Small farms like this are usually purchased by people in Kyoto with low official positions and low power, which are considered to be barely purchased. Anyone with some skills will buy a farm in the suburbs of Beijing.

It was just such an inconspicuous small village, but there were carriages parked in front of the door and in the courtyard.

The coachmen tacitly parked the carriage very closely, so that they blocked the wind and chatted in groups-

"Hey, brother, your family is here to buy stones too?"

"Ahem, I don't know what the matter of the master is!"

"Cut! Is it interesting to hide it? Look, we all sent our masters to buy stones. By the way, I don't know what kind of stones it is, but I have to buy them. Isn't that stone everywhere?"

"You don't understand this, right? I heard from our master that it's jade!"
