Chapter 31 The Empress
Chapter 31 The Emperor's Girl
Ye Fan came out of the palace and kept thinking about what had happened just now, but he really couldn't figure out Yang Guang's intention.
He didn't know that it was Xiao Meiniang who asked Yang Guang to summon him to meet him.
After leaving the palace, Ye Fan began to walk on the street. What he could not have imagined was that many grain stores in Luoyang had used the grain in Yang Guang, which made many grain shops no longer have food.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan's mind moved.
"Now Yang Guang is collecting grain everywhere, why don't I cooperate with the officials responsible for collecting grain? Take the task of supplying grain."
Ye Fan thought that his heart could no longer calm down, so he hurried back to the house, locked himself in the study, and began to think about this matter.
He owns a mall, and as long as he has money, the goods are almost unlimited.
But if you take out the item at once, you will definitely be suspected, and this matter can only be done step by step.
Now he is a general and he can't do anything by himself. Ye Fan suddenly discovered that he lacks the most manpower now, and he doesn't have many people at all.
In this world more than a thousand years ago, as long as you have money, you can buy a friend and slave.
The price is not expensive.
Ye Fan is now short of manpower and has also focused on the market, although Yang Guang also gave him a hundred servants.
But he really dares not use these people.
Who knows if these people were sent by Yang Guang to monitor him?
After taking some money, he ran to the market.
Before he could reach his destination, he saw people surrounding him, pointing in the middle, as if he was looking at something.
Out of curiosity, Ye Fan walked over, stood behind everyone and looked inside, and suddenly saw a strong man kneeling on the ground with the words "Selling to Bury Mother" next to him.
Ye Fan watched too much of this kind of plot on TV.
He squeezed into the crowd, stood in front of the strong man, and asked, "How much money do you need."
"10 taels of silver." The strong man was called Zhang Jing.
Zhang Jing was originally coming to Luoyang and was about to join the army. His mother, who didn't want to come with him, fell ill. He had no money to see a doctor. He asked many doctors but couldn't find a doctor who was willing to help. In the end, he could only watch his mother die.
He had been kneeling here for a long time, and there were only people watching the fun, but no one came forward to ask for the price.
Ye Fan's appearance made Zhang Jing happy.
"Is it 10 taels of silver?" Ye Fan murmured, without saying much, and took out 10 taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Jing: "My name is Ye Fan. After the work is done, the Ye Mansion will come to me."
"Thank you, mercy."
Zhang Jing quickly kowtowed to Ye Fan and stood up quickly. Perhaps because of his long-term kneeling, Zhang Jing shook his body a few times when he stood up, and then he struggled out of the crowd.
Zhang Jing left, and the crowds who watched the fun dispersed, while Ye Fan continued to go to the market and bought 100 plots and 50 slaves.
Ye Fan is not short of money, and it’s not that he doesn’t want to buy more, he is afraid that he will lose his word.
After taking the people back to the mansion, they gathered them together and announced: "From today on, you will be part of the Ye Mansion. Your monthly money is 2 taels. If you are dedicated to working for the Ye Mansion, you will be rewarded at the end of each month."
2 taels of silver?
Everyone was shocked, and then everyone showed an expression of ecstasy on their faces. The reason they went to the market was because of life.
Ye Fan offered 2000 yuan a month of money, which was something they could never dream of.
Seeing these people's expressions in his eyes, Ye Fan was secretly proud. He didn't care about money, but his loyal subordinates.
After announcing the wages to these people, Ye Fan began to arrange their work, selected fifty people from a hundred plots to serve as guards, and asked 50 slaves to act as maids of the Ye Mansion. At the same time, Ye Fan did not forget to bribe the people given by Yang Guang and set their wages at 2 taels.
For the remaining fifty-man troops, Ye Fan temporarily asked them to be the guards. When he found a house in Luoyang, he would form a caravan.
Ye Fan owns a mall, and this caravan must be established. He also expects the caravan to sell the items in the mall to various places.
With the joining of these 150 people, the Ye Mansion began to become lively.
In the afternoon, Changsun Wuji, who had already lived in the mansion, couldn't bear it and ran to Ye Fan to ask Ye Fan about Changsun.
"Ye Fan, there is no news about Wugui yet, so nothing will happen to him."
Ye Fan understood Changsun Wuji's mood. He was also worried about Changsun Wugui at this moment, but he just didn't show it.
However, in order to stabilize Changsun Wuji, Ye Fan still said: "I have ordered someone to inquire about Wugui's news."
"I believe there will be news soon."
Changsun Wuji was worried about Changsun Wugui, but after hearing Ye Fan's words, he had to suppress his worries.
At this time, Changsun Wugui was sitting by the street, covering his stomach, watching the crowd coming and going, not knowing what he was thinking.
Suddenly, a fair arm appeared in front of Changsun Wugui, and this one was holding an inch of silver in his hand.
Changsun Wugui stared at the owner of the hand in a daze. After seeing that this was a beautiful woman, Changsun Wugui shook his head and did not go to take the money.
"Where is your family?" Yang Jie'er, as an imperial daughter, has been with Yang Guang for a long time. She is deeply favored by Yang Guang. There is no difficulty in entering and leaving the palace.
Changsun Wugui looked at the woman who was either rich or noble in front of him, shook his head and said nothing.
Seeing that Changsun Wugui didn't say anything, Yang Jie'er didn't care and said with a smile: "Did you encounter any problems? I might help you if you say it?"
"Are you really willing to help me?" Changsun Wugui looked at Yang Jie'er unexpectedly.
"Tell me," as an imperial daughter, helping others solve their difficulties made Yang Jieer feel satisfied.
Seeing that Yang Jie'er didn't seem to be a joke, Changsun Wugui said immediately: "You listen to me to take the story first."
As Changsun Wugui said, he told Yang Jie'er "Journey to the West", and of course she only talked about the first chapter.
"Why don't you talk?" Yang Jie'er was fascinated by the hearing, and suddenly saw Changsun Wugui stop and asked in confusion.
"I only know a little, but I know someone knows this story. As long as you help me find this person, I will write the story to you, and you can also ask him later."
Changsun Wugui was thinking to himself: Since she could not enter the Ye Mansion, then the person in front of her should be able to enter the Ye Mansion to meet Ye Fan.
As long as Ye Fan heard this story, she would not believe that Ye Fan would not come to see him.
"You are smart. This person is your acquaintance." Yang Jie'er suddenly looked at Changsun Wugui.
Then he continued, "Tell me, who knows this story."
As the imperial daughter, it is not easy to find someone in Luoyang City.
Changsun Wugui pointed in front, and Yang Jie'er looked in the direction she pointed, and immediately saw a grand mansion.
