Chapter 451 Tian Weng's request(2/2)
What? Didn’t Zhou Gui sell medals and help him take back some of them?
Unfortunately, after paying back part of the money, there was not much left. Wang Wan devoted all of them to his home.
Maintaining a huge family is not okay without money.
There are so many people in the mansion. How much does it cost to dress and eat? How much does it cost to repair a house? How much does it cost to ride a horse and a car?
Do you need to spend money when lighting the lamp at night? Do you need to spend money when women’s rouge and water powder? Do you need to pay your own salary? Do you need to ask for it after attending someone else’s banquet?
The expenses are too great, really too great. Especially after Li Shui appeared, he taught books today, sold wine tomorrow, and now sold pastries again.
The cost in the mansion is more than before.
Wang Wan sat in the study, thinking hard, how could he persuade His Majesty to meet the merchants in a vague way? As long as His Majesty meets him again, those medals will not be sold.
However, Wang Wan also knew that His Majesty was a little contemptuous of the merchants. It was enough to meet him once, and I am afraid that there would be no second time.
Wang Wan racked her brains and thought for a long time, and suddenly her heart moved: "The merchants are not good, what if they are powerful people?"
"The powerful Kanto, because they believed in the imperial court, moved thousands of miles to Xianyang. They also sent their children to participate in the imperial examinations and were willing to help His Majesty govern the world."
"These powerful men are very loyal, right? But His Majesty hasn't seen them yet. If you can persuade His Majesty to see these powerful men, then..."
Thinking of this, Wang Wan shook her head again: "Even if Your Majesty wants to meet the powerful Guandong, there is no need to buy medals for those powerful people."
"Wait...what if I suggest that Your Majesty only meet the powerful Kanto who are determined to go out to sea? These powerful men have expanded the territory for our Great Qin and made considerable contributions to finding the fairy mountain for Your Majesty. It is completely reasonable for Your Majesty to give a banquet."
"And the powerful men want to prove that they want to go out to sea, this compass must be bought. It's wonderful, this plan is great."
When Wang Wan thought of this, she was like a drowning man catching a life-saving straw and immediately started writing memorials.
When the memorial was halfway through, Wang Wan always felt that some things seemed inappropriate. But after thinking about it, he straightened out his ideas, and felt that it was completely reasonable, so he continued to write.
After writing the memorial, Wang Wan felt much more relaxed. After so many days, she finally had a good night's sleep.
The next day, after reading the memorial, Ying Zheng felt that Wang Wan’s suggestions were very reasonable.
Although the Kanto tyrant has weakened a lot after migration and the economic blow of Li Shui, it cannot be underestimated. If it can show its kindness to exchange for the other party's loyalty, it will be very good.
There are quite a few powerful people in Kanto, and it is very appropriate to choose those who are determined to go out to sea to give them a banquet.
So Ying Zheng agreed to Wang Wan's proposal. Anyway, a banquet was not much money, so he just sat down and encouraged these powerful people for a few words, but it would not delay anything.
After receiving His Majesty's decision, Wang Wan was immediately excited and immediately ordered someone to call Zhou Gui.
Wang Wan said to Zhou Gui: "Your Majesty will give you a banquet tomorrow. You will be given a banquet for the powerful Guandong. Only those who are determined to go out to sea can enter the palace. Today, eunuchs will visit the powerful and draft a list."
"How to judge whether a powerful man is determined to go to sea? The easiest thing is to see if he has a compass. Therefore, you immediately seize this opportunity and go to the Kanto powerful man's home to sell the compass."
Zhou Gui responded, carried a lot of compass on his back, and hurried to the homes of the powerful.
…………
After nightfall, Zhou Gui came back.
Wang Wan asked nervously: "How? How many are sold?"
Zhou Gui said with a bitter face: "No one was sold."
Wang Wan almost went crazy: "Can these Kanto tyrants are so bold and arrogant that no one wants to see Your Majesty?"
Zhou Gui said: "There are quite a few people who want to see Your Majesty. But those powerful men said that they had bought compass. It was the second batch sold by Shangjun Villa. It does not bring medals, only pointers, and the price is fifty."
"These powerful men also said that although this second batch of compass is cheap, it does not hinder going to sea. It is better to build two more ships than to save more than one million yuan. It is also considered to be loyal to His Majesty."
When Wang Wan heard this, she almost vomited blood.
He finally understood what was wrong when he wrote the memorial yesterday.
"Huaiguzi, why are you against me everywhere?" Wang Wan stomped her feet hard and sighed with hatred.
