223: The Brainy King Rong
Knowing that it was about the caravan, Yan Junchu had an idea in his mind. He looked at King Rong and said, "It's too early to talk about the caravan now. It's not too late to talk about it after the caravan comes back. Google search and read"
The corners of King Rong's mouth twitched. What's the difference between saying it and not saying it?
Just thinking about it, he heard the prince say again, "However, it's better for you to make some preparations in advance. This time when they come back, I plan to adjust the caravan list, and you'd better adjust it too."
Really?
"Brother, why do you want to change people?" King Rong was very suspicious, but when he thought about it, he just casually mentioned this matter to Su Xinyi before, and the two of them definitely wouldn't discuss it.
"It is very important to adjust the caravan. We were divided equally among three people before. This time I plan to take back some people. If you have trustworthy people, you can also add some."
Prince Rong was a little confused, "Brother, why do you want to reduce the number of people?"
Yan Junchu looked at Prince Rong and said slowly: "Before, I was afraid that you would be willful and unstable. After such a long time of observation, it is okay. Adding some burden to you can be regarded as continuing to train you."
Prince Rong always felt that it was not that simple, but he could not think of where the pit was for a while. He looked at his elder brother carefully, and then looked at Su Xinyi. He was still a little uneasy, "Brother, why do I feel that it is not just like this? Don't cheat me. Although my younger brother was ignorant before, I am not disrespectful to my elder brother now."
Su Xinyi thought to himself, you also know that you were ignorant before, is that what you call ignorant?
However, the current Prince Rong is indeed not bad.
Yan Junchu was rarely happy when he heard this, and his eyes were much gentler when he looked at his younger brother. "Seventh brother, you also know that the emperor has now handed over many government affairs to me, and he really needs a helper. You and I have been through a lot of things together in the past year. Although you are a little eccentric and sometimes too willful, as a prince you also have a kind heart to share the worries of the people. As an elder brother, I am very happy, and as a prince, I am also very pleased. In public and private, I hope you can help me. You know that this caravan matter is of great importance. I don’t trust anyone to it, only you."
The unserious look on Prince Rong’s face was put away, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He snorted and said, "I am a person who can do great things. Since the elder brother said so, I, as a younger brother, am naturally willing to help you. Okay, leave the caravan matter to me and I will definitely handle it for you."
Su Xinyi:...
This idiot, really took the bait.
Oh, the queen would probably slam the table and kick this stupid son out after knowing it.
Yan Junchu was touched and looked at King Rong, "Brother, if you and I work together, there is nothing we can't do. In a few years, everything we envisioned will be realized. You must believe that the soldiers and people at the border will remember your contribution."
King Rong said happily: "That's not necessary."
He did things not to please anyone.
The young master was open-minded and acted according to his heart.
"Brother, what do you think? Tell me in detail, how many more people do you need? I don't know if I have enough." The emperor father was too stingy and didn't give him many people.
Su Xinyi interrupted and said, "Your Highness, you are a forgetful person. Have you forgotten that we planned to build a caravan to transport goods directly from the south to Yulinwei last time?"
"Didn't we build it?" Prince Rong turned to look at Su Xinyi. His elder brother was kind, but Su Xinyi was cunning and had to be guarded against. "Don't lie to me. I remember it clearly."
Su Xinyi sneered, "Saying that you have a bad memory is a compliment. We did build it, but we didn't have enough people at that time. Didn't we build a very shabby team? Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to expand this caravan, so he wants to hand it over to Your Highness. However, I have some doubts whether Your Highness can do it. , His Royal Highness the Crown Prince naturally thinks your brother is very good, but I don’t think so. ”
Prince Rong was so angry that if he couldn’t win, he would roll up his sleeves and fight first, “Su Xinyi, don’t look down on others, why can’t I do it?”
“Your Highness, do you think that doing business is a very easy thing, and managing a caravan is also a very simple thing, but have you ever thought about how many shops are opened and how many are closed in the capital every year? It’s the same business, but it can be seen that there is a big difference between good and bad management.”
“I don’t understand, you sound like you know a lot.” Prince Rong was stubborn and would not give in to Su Xinyi.
"Your Highness is right. I don't understand either. It is precisely because we don't understand that we need to invite someone who knows. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trusts you very much. I think it would be better to invite someone else." Listening to Su Xinyi's undisguised sarcasm, Prince Rong took a deep breath. He knew that this was a provocation. Su Xinyi was cunning and treacherous, but he just couldn't swallow this breath. What's wrong with the provocation? He just wanted to save face. "Brother, don't worry, leave this to me." Prince Rong was so angry that he ignored Su Xinyi. "I will go south as soon as I return to Beijing and take care of this matter myself."
Yan Junchu frowned slightly and looked at Prince Rong, "Don't be impulsive. You should know that it is not difficult to build a caravan, but it is not easy to build a caravan well. Southern merchants are smart, but not easy to deal with. You are too straightforward. If you really fight with them, I think Xinyi is right. You should calm down and think seriously. You can't just rush forward with passion."
"Your Highness is right. This is what it means to steal a chicken but lose the rice."
Prince Rong: ...
It seems that in Su Xinyi's eyes, he is just a thief!
He was so angry.
"Su Xinyi, don't think I don't know that you are provoking me." Prince Rong said angrily.
"Oh, Your Highness has seen this, so will you accept it?" Su Xinyi laughed.
Prince Rong looked at Su Xinyi, "What if I accept it or not? I can't just run my legs off when you open your mouth. There is no such easy thing in the world."
Oh, you have a brain.
Su Xinyi immediately said: "Your Highness, what you said, if you really accept it, at least I will form a guard for you to ensure that you are well protected, how about it?"
Although Su Xinyi felt that Prince Rong was on the same boat with them, he could not bear the heavy weight of the Queen. No matter what, Prince Rong had to have his own people around him.
Most caravan merchants would ask the escort agency to escort them. Those big merchants had their own guards, and they did not have enough financial resources to support such guards.
Although Prince Rong is a prince now, he is just a bare prince now, and there are not many people under him.
"Really? You have such good intentions?"
Why did he not believe it?
"Our Su family has many people, so it's not a big deal for me to send some people." Su Xinyi said with a smile, "Of course, Your Highness must ask His Majesty for permission first."
Prince Rong's face fell, and he knew it was not that simple.
