Chapter 4 Games
After Gao Li finished sending him off, his eyes sterned and he went directly to the room where Gao He was.
When he heard Shang Yin came to the door in person, he felt frightened. He was actually hit by Shui Han's hidden energy and was still alive. He did his best, which was really strange.
Bang!
Suddenly his door exploded. Before he could come back to his senses, Gao Li slapped him in the face, causing him to fly up and smash it on the bookcase.
"Do you think no one can find out if Shui Han uses secret force to kill him? Who told you to do this?" Gao Li felt that he had a lifetime of wisdom and was almost destroyed by Gao He's hands.
"Dad guards Beihan Pass for countless years, but his reputation is not as good as Shang Tianzheng. In Guanzhong for two years, you starved these people. Isn't it just that you want them to know who is the one who can control their life and death? Anyway, the old guy Shang Tianzheng has not had much time, and his only grandson will be cut off as soon as he dies. At that time, isn't the fortune of the entire Tianzheng Taoist Temple ours?" Gao He was so scared that he trembled all over, and he kept bleeding from his mouth.
"Who taught you how to do this?" Gao Li felt a chill behind his back when he heard this. Someone must have encouraged his son to die. If the real Shang Yin dies, he will probably be in trouble.
"A few months ago, the young master of the Narcissus Sect said casually, I think it makes sense. A few days ago, I happened to think it was an opportunity, so I took action." Gao He did not dare to look directly at Gao Li.
"Come on, hang Gao He at the main gate of Beihan Mansion, whip three hundred troops, and show it to the public for three days. Who dares to give him a bite of food or a sip of water and kill him!" Gao Li was furious. He did not expect that the young master of the Narcissus was so vicious. Gao He was planted with a seed in his mind, and he wanted the old immortal master to really die, and Shang Yin died again.
That day, all the fortunes of the Zhengdao Temple, the entire Beihan Mansion, would not be assigned to it, because Gao He was the culprit who coveted the fortune and cut off the lineage of the old immortal master.
Even if you can keep yourself safe, I am afraid that those fortunes will be divided up by the Narcissus Sect, Hongwu Army, or the Daxia General Shang, and Beihan Mansion will completely lose the opportunity.
"Dad, I was wrong..." Gao He looked frightened. He saw Gao Li so angry for the first time, and was so scared that he trembled all over.
——
"I didn't expect that you would use this method." Su Jiuwei looked at Shang Yin with a brilliant look in her eyes, thinking that he was really different: "It's only one million gold, your appetite is too small."
"I was practicing those days and I was thinking carefully why Gao He killed me." Shang Yin looked at Su Jiuwei and said, "I think there is a mastermind behind all this."
"How do you say it?" Su Jiuwei didn't know that Shang Yin had really died once. She was a casual cultivator and didn't know the barriers.
"Isn't it strange that my grandfather is seriously injured and cannot be cured, and his life is difficult to save. Rumors are everywhere and it has spread wildly for several months?"
"Gao Li is a tough and brave man. His reputation in Guanzhong has been suppressed by his grandfather over the years. Although he is not convinced, he will not do such a thing."
"Think about it, if a million elite troops in Beihan Pass are in charge of this place, if my grandfather has a good or bad situation, it will be the most beneficial for them. In the name of protecting me, it will be easy to take good luck."
"But if I was killed by Gao He, what would the Beihan Mansion be like then?"
Shang Yin was untied, and the memories and wisdom of the two lives were integrated together. You should know that Shang Yin in this life was originally extremely intelligent and talented, and has observed the ups and downs of the Xia Dynasty for many years.
These are all the meanings of the old immortal master. It is more important to understand the world, human nature, and rules, and to understand the way of heaven and earth and nature than practice.
"You mean the power of the imperial capital? Who would it be?" Su Jiuwei felt that Shang Yin in front of her was completely renewed. She had never noticed anything from this trivial matter before.
"The Narcissus Sect, the leader of the Sect, Yi Jianlinggui, is the national teacher, but his reputation has always been suppressed by his grandfather."
"Xiahou Xian, the Grand Marshal of the Xia Kingdom, made countless contributions and could not compare with his grandfather."
"The Daxia General Chamber of Commerce, if you master more fortune and resources, the stronger they will be. These three parties have been playing against each other, and it is possible."
Shang Yin said, sighing: "I finally know why my grandfather asked me to study and cultivate my mind, understand the natural power of heaven and earth, and understand the rules of the government of the Xia Kingdom. It is nothing to gain power by practicing oneself. Only by being able to master the rules and use one's own power is the most important thing."
"Then what do you want to do next?" Su Jiuwei looked at him and felt even more different.
"When I see Princess Xia Xin who has come to the Daxia Chamber of Commerce in Beihan Pass, if my grandfather really has a short time, can I gain a foothold in Beihan Pass and defend my grandfather's foundation? Gao Li and Princess Xia Xin are both passes." Shang Yin's eyes were sharp and he headed towards the Chamber of Commerce.
"Yes." Su Jiuwei followed him and understood a lot.
"Tao, this Shang Yin was caught by Shui Han's Anjin and was not dead?" The person who was hiding in the dark and preparing to make the matter worse did not expect that this would be the result.
The two of them just arrived at the chamber of commerce.
There was a woman wearing gorgeous clothes standing at the door to greet her in person.
She has a beautiful face, dignified manners, and has the majesty of the royal family.
"Xia Xin has met the little immortal master." Before Shang Yin could speak, she bowed.
"I've seen the princess." Shang Yin returned the favor without being humble or arrogant.
There were many people talking about it in the crowd.
"Isn't this Shang Yin, who was beaten like a dog by Gao He a few days ago?"
"Why should the princess be so polite to him?"
"It's obviously a waste who cannot be cultivated."
"Do you want to die? The woman around him is infinitely approaching the Immortal Body Realm!"
"No, he has practiced and has just entered the mortal realm!"
"It's only been a few days. Didn't you say that he couldn't practice before?"
Some people find something is wrong.
Shang Yin ignored the words among the crowd, and it was well known that he could not practice.
The people of Guanzhong have no hope for him.
"Ask." Xia Xin personally led the way and went straight to the main hall of the ninth floor of the Chamber of Commerce. Many people focused their attention on them.
"Princess, I came here this time to buy grain and help the people of Guanzhong." Shang Yin said seriously, and Su Jiuwei stood aside without saying a word.
"The people in Guanzhong have more than 5 million yuan, even the most ordinary rice, and ten copper per kilograms. If you want these people to survive this winter, each person needs at least 100 kilograms, ten silver per 100 kilograms, and five million people, fifty million silver or fifty million gold. This is a considerable amount. This is still the usual price of grain. Now there is a severe drought and the food is tight, at least 50 copper per kilograms." Xia Xin did not expect that the little immortal master who was still drinking a lot a day ago would want to buy grain and provide relief to the people in Guanzhong. It is incredible.
"If I guess correctly, the batch of grain you have in your hands should be a favor for you. Even if I don't buy it, you will provide relief to the people in a while and increase your reputation. If the princess talks to me about such a price, it would be too insincere." Shang Yin said bluntly.
"I just said, why did you come straight to me shortly after you left the General's Mansion? Now Gao He is hung in front of the General's Mansion and beaten to the public for three days." Xia Xin was in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, so he was naturally well-informed. She smiled and said, "It's not impossible to sell it to you for an ordinary price. But I want to take this name and cannot provide relief in your name."
"It's okay, I am alone and don't have enough staff to set up grain distribution sites. The Chamber of Commerce has a large staff, so that the people can get food before the New Year, that's enough." Shang Yin nodded and agreed.
"Little Immortal Master, I don't understand this. Since you know that if you don't buy it, I will also pay it. Why do you have to spend this amount of money?" Xia Xin thought Shang Yin would give up when he saw the difficulties.
"Just because of the severe drought in the past two years, the people have no harvest, but the incense in Tianzheng Temple has been ongoing. Since I want to inherit my grandfather's mantle, I naturally have to have a responsibility to the people of Guanzhong. A few days ago, I was willing to fall into depravity because I couldn't solve my grandfather's fortune. Now I can be considered as a shame and braver." Shang Yin took out a million-dollar ticket and said, "Princess, just arrange it."
Xia Xin smiled slightly and felt in a very good mood. She collected the gold ticket and said, "Okay, I will ask someone to open a granary to help the people, but I will only help the emergency but not the poor. What if there is another severe drought next year?"
"Next year, I will talk about it next year." Shang Yin said.
"If someone comes, send orders to the people of Guanzhong, each of them will be given 100 kilograms of rice. None of them must be missed, otherwise they will be severely punished and not loaned." Xia Xin said word by word.
"Yes." In the chamber of commerce, someone immediately took the order and left.
"Let's go, I'll always let you take a look." Xia Xin took Shang Yin and Su Jiuwei to the top attic.
I have to say that the Daxia Chamber of Commerce is very quick.
Looking down at Beihan Pass, grain distribution points are set up in ten directions.
After the news came out, with the maintenance of many people from the Chamber of Commerce, many people from Guanzhong came to collect grain in an orderly manner.
"The Daxia Chamber of Commerce takes it from the people and uses it for the people. I hope everyone can have enough food and clothing for the winter. This is the kindness of Princess Xia Xin, and you should know it." The people in the Daxia Chamber of Commerce had a loud voice.
"Thank you for your kindness to Princess Xia Xin!"
Countless people kowtowed repeatedly, and their faces were filled with tears.
Shang Yin breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, these ordinary people have received the food. He said inadvertently: "It's not good to talk about the princess who took on such a mess, right?"
"Who said it wasn't..." Xia Xin looked at Shang Yin, smiled slightly and said, "You're going to mess with me?"
"The harvest in the first three years was not good, and the next two years was even more severe drought and there was no harvest. As far as I know, many merchants in the Chamber of Commerce were suffering, and many people within the Chamber of Commerce were even more colluding. Originally, Beihan Pass was not a wealthy place. The princess came here, probably to make some achievements and show them to the people in the imperial capital." Shang Yin looked at her with sincere eyes.
"You want to help me? What are the conditions?" Xia Xin felt that there was nothing to hide, so she simply said.
"It's always good for multiple friends." Shang Yin felt that the purpose of this trip had been achieved, at least Xia Xin had a good impression of him, so that he would be much more convenient in the future.
"Then I'm not polite. Open this space ring and take a look?" Xia Xin took out a space ring and said.
After Shang Yin opened it, he found that it was full of cotton coats, cotton shoes and cotton hats.
"Five million cotton jackets, each of which is eighty copper, totaling forty thousand gold."
"Five million pairs of cotton shoes, each pair of eighty copper, totaling forty thousand gold."
"Five million cotton hats, each with sixty copper, totaling 30,000 gold."
"Total 110,000 yuan, it's almost the Chinese New Year. The clothes they wear have not been replaced for many years. You can do it to the end. These are all cost prices." Xia Xin smiled.
"100,000 gold." Shang Yindao.
"Trade." Xia Xin agreed readily.
"The Chamber of Commerce has a lot of inventory?" Shang Yin asked casually, but he didn't expect that there would be inventory problems in this life.
"Of course, God has not looked very good in recent years. The people are responsible for the heavens and the deserts are also responsible for the heavens. In the past two years of severe drought, they have no spare money to buy these things. I heard that some people have been frozen to death this year." Xia Xin sighed softly.
"Then why didn't you do these things earlier?" Shang Yin asked.
"I have my difficulties. Although you have helped me deal with these things, it seems that there are many things you have done for me, but for the entire chamber of commerce, it is just the tip of the iceberg." Xia Xin knew that Shang Yin might feel cruel, but only she knew her current situation: "Give it to you for 400,000 gold."
Xia Xin took out four gold tickets with a denomination of 100,000 yuan to Shang Yin, and he took them casually and said, "No matter what, I'm going to have a job today."
"Come on a regular basis when you have time." Xia Xin smiled.
Shang Yin and Su Jiuwei left the Chamber of Commerce and walked on the way back to the mountain.
"Shang Yin, I don't know very well why six hundred thousand gold can solve the problem, two years of severe drought, but they didn't do anything?" Su Jiuwei saw the scenes.
"In the eyes of the superiors, death is nothing!"
"If a few people didn't die and the people didn't know the seriousness of the situation, how could they be grateful to them?"
"Grandpa's prestige is too high, everything is under Gao Li's control. He wants the people in Beihan Guanzhong to know who is related to their life and death."
"If the people were not allowed to reach a desperate situation, how could they know? He gave Xia Xin food to be a favor and helped her build prestige, which was conducive to consolidating his relationship with the imperial capital, and also differentiating part of his grandfather's prestige."
"People, whoever treats them will remember them firmly."
"This kind of game is harmless in normal times. After all, there are very few people who really have no selfishness. However, if the superiors still use their own small abacus in times of great disasters, the people will be in trouble!"
