Chapter 609: Brother and Sister Transaction
After the night fell completely, in the theater, there were singers dancing on the stage, and the pleasant singing echoed in my ears.
In the audience, there were long tables lined with all kinds of fine wine and delicacies on them. Many sons of generals and ministers were silently appreciating them. However, because of Yuan Ming's arrival, Anusz hurriedly left after personally sending gifts.
But what is strange is that Yuan Ming and Yuan Zhao were not among them. In a luxurious inner room in the theater, Yuan Ming and Yuan Zhao sat together, Shangguan Wan'er and an ordinary-faced man stood on both sides of their master's side.
"Brother, I originally thought you were busy with official business and would not come." Yuan Zhao, who was in charge, said gratefully to Yuan Ming, who was in charge.
Yuan Zhao's birthday is divided into two parts. In the morning, the royal family gathered in her mansion, and in the evening, friends were invited to the theater to listen to music. However, that time in the morning, Yuan Ming did not come.
Yuan Ming smiled slightly and said, "Why won't my elder brother come to my third sister's birthday? But you also know that if my elder brother goes in the morning, my younger brothers and sisters will definitely be restrained. It is better to come to me at night."
"Brother is considerate, younger sister admires it" Yuan Zhao said with a smile.
"San sister, you are rich in the world. Since the invention of various types of gambling, you seize the opportunity. Just the Chaoyang of the casino named by your father, you will enter tens of millions of zhu every year. There are countless kinds of rare treasures. The jade watermelon in the morning is so ordinary. Just say whatever you want." Yuan Ming said softly. Yuan Zhao invited him to the inner room, so there must be something to ask for.
Yuan Zhao's eyes moved and he smiled and said, "Brother, although my younger sister's assets are not as good as the Zhen family, they will never be used up in a few lifetimes. If my older brother loves my younger sister, give me a fiefdom!"
Yuan Ming frowned and said, "Three sisters, you should be very clear that although the father and emperor canonize all the kings, they all have fiefs and no brothers."
"The father is wise and I hope that my descendants of the Yuan family will work hard, but my sister is a woman, she cannot go to the court or join various ministries, so she needs the help of her elder brother," said Yuan Zhao.
"Tell me," Yuan Ming said curiously
"Zhou Buyi, the first aide of the eldest brother, was the top scholar in the eighth year of Xianwu, and was a shocking talent. He is now in charge of the Ministry of Personnel under the Shangshu Office, and is controlling Daxi's power to employ people. The power is only under Prime Minister Zhuge, and the father and emperor personally promoted it. My younger sister doesn't want anything else, just give the middle platform to my younger sister," Yuan Zhao said softly.
"You want Zhongtai" Yuan Ming was a little surprised. Zhongtai Prefecture was originally named Yizhou. Yuan Xi personally renamed Zhongtai. It is an island overseas in Jiangdong. Although it is a county-sized area, the population is too small. Even if I immigrate, it is less than 130,000, which is far inferior to other prefectures.
"Yes, although the casino business is very prosperous and has made a lot of contributions to the national treasury, gambling has harmed people and has caused a lot of things. Governor Zhang has submitted a report to the Shangshu Desk to express his dissatisfaction. Therefore, my sister decided to move the casino overseas. My warships and civilian ships of Dayan are already very mature in sailing near the sea. If you go overseas, no one will say anything." Yuan Zhao said with a smile.
Yuan Ming raised his lips and said, "Three sisters, although Governor Zhang wrote a letter, his father's favor for you should not be a problem. The casino moved to the middle platform, which seemed to avoid the storm, but the business would probably be much less. Third sister, you also want to develop in the world."
"Brother, you have ambitions and want to control the Western Regions or even the Kushans. My younger sister dare not fight. I am very satisfied with having a middle platform." Yuan Zhao suddenly said and suddenly became coquettish.
Yuan Ming shook his head, suddenly picked up the fruit on the table and looked carefully.
Yuan Zhao was immediately angry when he saw this scene. After gritting his teeth, he said, "Brother, as long as this matter can be done, all the income in the casino city will be given to you in addition to the treasury. My younger sister will give you 30% of the income."
When Yuan Ming heard this, he still didn't say anything, as if there was something strange about the fruit.
Yuan Zhao frowned and said, "40% of them, no more, otherwise my younger sister will lose."
"Haha" Yuan Ming suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Third sister, you will not lose 60% of the time. With your ability and financial resources, the middle platform will inevitably become my Daxi's treasure island. I will respond to this matter, and you think you don't know about my father's universe. You have also seen the world map of the father. There are countless resources on the sea. If it weren't for my Daxi's warship that could not have sailed far away, my brother would have done it long ago."
"So, my brother agreed," Yuan Zhao said excitedly.
"You can try things, but one thing to be clear. Those who want to promote must have real talent and knowledge. My father has educated us before. No matter what the situation is, people without talent will harm my royal family. Generally, you should not report ordinary people, so as not to take back the middle platform again. After all, although the middle platform is small, it was given by the father himself," Yuan Ming said seriously.
"Don't worry, brother, sister pays more attention to it than anyone else. I believe Sima Shi is talented enough," Yuan Zhao whispered.
Yuan Ming was shocked, looked at Yuan Zhao carefully, and sighed: "The third sister is really amazing. She actually brought the Sima family. Sima Shaoqing can have extremely strict family rules. He ignored anyone except the orders of his father."
"It's just luck" Yuan Zhao smiled mysteriously.
"Okay, Sima Shi is the eldest son of Sima Shaoqing, a Jinshi in the eighth year of Xianwu. He is well-educated and has real goods. He has done a great job in the Ministry of Works. He should be promoted. I will give you a reply to this matter within three days," Yuan Ming promised.
"Brother Xie" Yuan Zhao immediately stood up and saluted.
"Haha, okay, go watch the show." Yuan Ming smiled and walked outside first.
After Yuan Ming went out, Shangguan Wan'er came to Yuan Zhao's side and frowned and said, "Princess, 40% of the loss seems to be too great."
"It's okay. As long as Sima Shi can go out to sea, I will definitely earn it back one by one. What is money? The foundation is the most important thing. Was the father's acquisition of Youzhou different from the so-called desolate land?" Yuan Zhao said confidently.
"The princess is more wise than a god, but unfortunately she is a daughter," Shangguan Wan'er sighed.
"What's wrong with my daughter? There is no place for this vast world. I will go overseas to find it." Yuan Zhao announced with a domineering look.
"Wan'er will definitely follow the princess to the death." Hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er immediately said respectfully.
Yuan Zhao smiled slightly and said, "All the talents we secretly gathered will move towards the Zhongtai. This palace will completely change the Zhongtai Mansion within two years."
"promise!"
"By the way, the father of the acquired heaven will worship Zhonglie Pavilion. After each worship, the father will test the martial arts of all the philosophers in the Holy Martial Arts Field in Zhonglie Pavilion. The winners will reward them heavily, which means that my Daxi will never give up on his determination to fight. Are you ready for the sword that I asked you to prepare?" Yuan Zhao suddenly said with concern.
"Princess is at ease. I have found countless craftsmen. Although they are not as good as those of the God of Heavenly Works, after eight months of hard work, they finally cast a peerless sword, which will surely allow the princess to show her power in the martial arts field." Shangguan Wan'er said immediately.
"Okay, I won't consider winning, but as long as I am satisfied with my father, it's a big deal. My father's love is everything, and I can't tolerate any mistakes," Yuan Zhao said seriously.
"I understand"
