Chapter 808
Zhu Shou and Wang Jian actually didn't come much later than Feilong. They saw the pavilion on the porch. Lin De, Shen Hao and Feilong seemed to be talking about things, so it was hard to get over. They hurriedly stepped forward to say hello when Feilong left.
"I've met Lord Shen."
Wang Jian is not bad, and he often sees Shen Hao, and he is the first confidant general in front of Shen Hao's sect. The relationship between the two is unusual, so Wang Jian is more natural and not too reserved when facing Shen Hao.
But Zhu Shou is different. Although he is a big shot in Fengri City, he is still far from weight in front of Lord Shen. What's more, he has noticed from the recent attitudes of the crown prince that there may be major changes in the top leaders of the Jingji Dynasty. The door that was closed by aristocratic families and clans in the past may be opened again, so he became interested in promotion.
But relying on himself alone is far from enough. Zhu Shou needs to use the power of Xuan Qingwei to help him.
If you have something to ask for, your psychological attitude will naturally become different. Moreover, Zhu Shou has an identity in Xuanqingwei and is considered a subordinate of Shen Hao, so he becomes more and more respectful.
"Come on? Let's go, go back and have a drink. I just chatted with Feilong and wasted some time." Shen Hao sprinkled a handful of fish food into the pool, then turned around and left the pavilion.
When the three of them returned to the main hall, the table inside had been prepared.
There are not many dishes, but they are sufficient in portions, and the taste is all Shen Hao likes. There are one or two new dishes in front of the main seat. If Shen Hao likes a certain new dish this time, the chef will find an opportunity to serve it again next time. Anyway, he needs to touch Master Shen’s taste.
People in the house, including the gardener in charge of the flower garden, are all people who are looking for by Heishui, and each one is controlled by Heishui. So you don’t have to worry about being passed outside when you get together in the house.
After serving the food, several servants left the main hall, and there were only three people left in the room, each of whom picked up food and drank.
"The military affairs in the south will have a result in the past few days. Judging from Zuo Yuliang's offensive, he has a great chance of winning. Therefore, the south will also have a first strategic change and a series of actions to prepare for the end of the war. What are the rumors of your teeth recently?"
After the third tour, Shen Hao asked Zhu Shou directly. He knew that Yaxing and the major slave caravans had close contact, and the slave caravans each had many tricks in the border army, and the news was first-hand, so it should not be much slower than Xuan Qingwei. Now it should be because of the matter.
Zhu Shou's face turned bitter when he heard this, put down his chopsticks and said depressedly: "Sir, what you said is reasonable, but now the storm in the imperial city has just fallen, and the Crown Prince Shu takes control of the power. Before that, the major slave caravans associated with Yaxing had no contact at all. Before, the Crown Prince Shu could get many conveniences with his relationship with the border army, but now it has been cut off. Zuo Yuliang ignored them at all, and even the official documents of Yaxing had been sank.
They made up their minds to wait until the crown prince ascended the throne before making plans. They didn’t care about official places like Yashang. Besides, the slave caravans were behind the imperial merchants, and there were also members of all the princes. Now they are all in the water."
Shen Hao was a little surprised by this. However, after he thought about it for a while, he felt that it was reasonable.
The result of the royal "big test" was that Yang Shu was brought to power, and the other six princes were killed. Yang Shu was another prince who was not favored by most people before. Not to mention a place like the slave caravan and the Yashang, even the officials in the local yamen just maintained basic etiquette for Yang Shu and never thought of coming over to contact him.
This is equivalent to going to the gambling table to suppress the treasure and ending up being wrong. It is not enough to get nothing, and it is possible to lose to a bachelor.
"Now Your Majesty is in a state of retreat. The East Palace is doing all the big and small things. Previously, the Ministry of War proposed a military operation strategy for completely destroying the barbarians, with detailed stance and rough estimates of military expenditure attached. However, His Majesty directly pushed it to the East Palace without reading it.
You know, what is the way the crown prince is? If you take a little calculation, you think it is not cost-effective to completely destroy the barbarians and will also be left with troubles. So you are about to have a big business this time."
Shen Hao did not explain it thoroughly. The military strategy in the south was secret. Now he told Zhu Shou that this was already a breath of noise. And Zhu Shou knew that this was enough.
Zhu Shou's eyes lit up and he said anxiously: "Sir, are you saying that the border troops will start selling barbarian captives?"
"Prisoners? The border army probably has no prisoners now. The hundreds of thousands of troops are nervous about eating and drinking, and where can we consume the remaining grain for the prisoners? What I am talking about is that if the decisive battle is won, then the last private land of the barbarians will become the racecourse for the Jingji Dynasty. There are many ethnic groups gathered by the barbarians before, and many of them are popular goods in your store. For example, the fox tribe, the cat tribe, the rabbit tribe and the horse tribe."
Zhu Shou may have been out of habit, and when he heard Shen Hao say this, he couldn't sit still. He rubbed his hands and smiled and said, "Sir, there are also horse tribes?"
"Well! There are not only horse tribes, but also deer tribes. I have seen a lot of them when I was on the front line before. How about it, can you make a big profit in business?"
Zhu Shou nodded repeatedly. Compared with the fox tribe, cat tribe or rabbit tribe, the male horse tribe is the rarest and most popular barbarian. After training in the tooth train, the male horse tribe can maximize their racial specialties and is the most popular slave for a large number of female customers. Even because of the rare and hidden transactions, the price of a horse slave is often ten times that of the fox girl, or higher, and there is no market price.
"It can be, but it's hard to walk on the way alone by tympanic." Zhu Shou's hands were itchy, but he was not dizzy. The tiara had always been the sales end of the slave business in the Jingji Dynasty, and there was basically no front-end of slave arrest, transportation and other business, so he didn't dare to express his confidence to Lord Shen immediately.
"Slave caravans are also a business that makes money. Have you never thought about eating from beginning to end? Or can you not play with it?" Shen Hao picked up a piece of roasted fish for himself, which was spicy and sour, to his taste.
Zhu Shou heard some smell and tentatively said, "Sir, do you mean to let me take a slave caravan? I have never done this stall before."
It’s not that Zhu Shou shuddered the responsibility, nor that he couldn’t see the benefits inside. It’s just that Zhu Shou understood that Shen Hao’s move must have other meanings. It’s definitely not just to guide them to make money. The interests and risks inside are definitely equal. He doesn’t want Shen Hao to be pushed to the front stage in a confused manner.
