Chapter 39 Baqiao Manor
East Palace!
Zhang Sizheng reported to Li Chengqian about Yuan Ling's movements.
"The 143 Bofangs in Chang'an have all bowed their heads and compromised. Conservatively, the Shang King made a profit of up to 400,000 yuan this time. This is not the case with the Han King, but not just that. So far, at the beginning of every month, the Shang King has been accounted for at least tens of thousands of yuan."
When Zhang Sizheng spoke, his tone was full of envy.
He had never seen so much money in his life, but Yuan Ling made a full amount in just a few months.
Then he recovered and his expression became a little scared.
My master has been even more moody recently and has hated Yuan Ling to the bone. He has not controlled his tone before speaking, so don't suffer any unintentional disaster.
For a moment, the hall was silent.
Zhang Sizheng secretly looked up and saw that Li Chengqian had no anger, but instead looked happy, with inexplicable pleasure in his eyes, and said slowly: "You said, are they willing to pay the money?"
Zhang Sizheng didn't think about it and said, "I'm definitely unwilling to accept it. I snatched part of the money from the arms of the King of Shang. It would be the same if anyone else was unwilling to accept it. The King of Shang is a bit weird. His gambling skills are too terrifying, and he doesn't even have the idea of winning."
Li Chengqian said in a sequel: "It is because he is unwilling to give up that he will take action. At this moment, my stupid brother is probably heartbroken. The Bofang business he had worked hard to support has ruined people's business and lost its financial source. What should he use to win people's hearts? The brother of Gu should remove this disaster for him. You said, right?"
Zhang Sizheng felt a chill coming and said in a trembling voice: "What the Prince's Highness said is naturally correct."
Li Chengqian said: "Then you won't do it yet! Remember to do it better so that everyone knows it was my stupid brother who did it."
Zhang Sizheng also reacted and said, "I understand."
The evil smile on Li Chengqian's face became more and more intense.
Da'an Palace!
Yuan Ling looked at the five big boxes of Tongbao in front of him with distress. These were all earned by himself with hard work. The cheap second brother in the palace did nothing and he had to give him 40% of them. It was really a comparison of others, which was so angering.
Li Shimin did not shamelessly ask for it.
Yuan Ling knew very well that if he really wanted to take so much ill-gotten wealth, he would probably have endless troubles.
Someone must be asked to share some hatred, and no one is more suitable than the one in the palace.
As long as he collects his own money, he is his own protective umbrella.
No matter how much I feel sorry for, I still have to give up.
"Your Highness!" Luo Tong then strode into the front yard and bowed with his fists: "Luo Tongte comes to report."
"Okay!" Yuan Ling greeted and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Lingtang's illness is fine."
Luo Tong said gratefully: "The imperial doctor has seen it and prescribed a few medicines, which has some effect. What is really practical is the crutches given by His Highness. My mother can walk with a crutch by herself now, so she specially asked me to thank You and told me to follow You Highness well and not to care about the family. If Your Highness is sent in the future, Luo Tong will never refuse to die."
Yuan Ling waved his hand generously and said, "What's the matter? It's too serious. How dangerous it is. Go and drink a little water inside. After the encapsulation is completed, we will set off. Go to the palace first, then go to the suburbs of the city. Your Majesty gave me a house, and we'll take a look together."
Everything is ready.
Yuan Ling first sent five boxes of coins to the palace city, handed over the letter he wrote to the palace city guards, and asked him to transport the boxes and letters to the inner palace, and handed them to Li Zhi, who was transferred to Li Shimin on his behalf.
If he directly asked the palace guards to transfer them to Li Shimin, the layers of communication and inspection would probably not be able to enter the inner palace in less than two days.
Even if it was given to Li Zhi, Yuan Ling estimated that his letter and these five boxes of money would have to be delivered at night.
"Let's go!"
Yuan Ling greeted Luo Tong and the guards beside him, and walked towards the outskirts of the city.
This time, Yuan Ling didn't have many guards to wait for only fifteen people.
It is mainly because there are some distances to go to the suburbs of the city, and it takes too much time to ride a horse.
Yuan Ling's guards found fifteen people who could master horses.
Li Chengqian's villa is located in the east of Chang'an City, the north bank of Ba Bridge, and near Xiao Zhongnan Mountain. It has an excellent geographical location.
The Eight Scenery of Chang'an, Baliu Fengxue is located here.
Tens of willow trees are planted on both sides of Ba Bridge. Whenever in early spring, willow catkins dance like flying snow, forming a "Ba Bridge wind and snow" landscape.
But it is winter now, with the cold wind whistling and the willow trees on both sides withering, which seems a bit deserted and desolate.
As soon as Yuan Ling arrived at Baqiao, he slowed down his pace and watched carefully every grass and tree.
This is not his manor area, but an excellent architectural designer. He cannot only design the effect he wants on the original land, but also needs to integrate everything around him into it. He includes the unchangeable landscape environment and integrates it into the buildings you create, and combines it with nature. Instead of doing it casually, build a European-style building in a place full of poetic and ancient style, or a quaint courtyard in a dangerous place suitable for building a castle.
After crossing Ba Bridge, heading north.
But in a little while, the scene in front of you was lit up. A lake with a mirror like a disk appeared in front of everyone. The lake water connected to the mountains of Xiao Zhongnan Mountain, the gullies and strange rocks reflected, and the dead trees and old trees stood quietly.
The entire lake is hidden between tall fir trees and vigorous sea buckthorn trees.
The looming manor flashed among the trees...
Even in the cold winter, the plants and trees wither still give people a unique beauty.
Yuan Ling inexplicably felt a familiar feeling in his mind, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "What a good place."
Suddenly he smiled and said, "So it's it!"
The later Xi'an World Expo Park is located in the Xiangba Ecological Zone in the eastern suburbs of Xi'an City, where the intersection of the Qian River and the Ba River...
This is the site of the Xi'an World Expo Park in later generations.
I didn't expect that I could own a manor between these mountains and rivers...
"Walk!"
Yuan Ling couldn't wait to go and see the summer resort of Li Chengqian, who already belonged to him.
The group was flying all the way.
It is far away from Chang'an, and the transportation is inconvenient. The few surrounding villas are all summer resorts for wealthy families. Now in the severe winter, all the doors are closed and there is a silence. Although the road is wide, there is no one.
According to the land deed, Yuan Ling found his own villa.
Looking at the two howling stone wolves at the entrance of the yard, the stone wolves are carved vividly and have a majestic appearance on all sides.
Yuan Ling couldn't help frowning after seeing it. The auspicious beasts in the house are traditional Chinese culture and have different forms. They usually use auspicious beasts such as qilins, stone lions, or use the nine sons of dragons to ward off evil spirits, but they do not use wolves as auspicious auspicious ones in the house.
Others may be fine, but Yuan Ling was very uncomfortable in this way and said directly: "Take these two wolves away and throw them anywhere..."
