False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

"Let's discuss this later!"

The meeting ended with Li Zhao saying these four words.

There is no further information about Zhao Kuangyin's letter to recruit people.

Just as Lin Chen thought, it was not necessary to recruit someone.

The treasury can still barely sustain itself, but the White Lotus Sect really can't delay any longer.

"Brother!"

Zhao Guangyi ran into Zhao Kuangyin's tent in a hurry.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was holding the military tent and looking through the sages' books, looked at his younger brother with an unhappy expression.

Zhao Guangyi, who knew he was rude, bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

"What's the matter?"

Regarding Zhao Guangyi's reckless move, Zhao Kuangyin just sighed and said nothing.

If you follow the military rules and break into the general's tent at will, it will be a capital crime of beheading!

"It's Xianpingcheng."

When Zhao Guangyi saw his elder brother handling it lightly, he immediately laughed and started talking about the matter.

"Xianping City?" Zhao Kuangyin frowned slightly.

"Then an urgent message came from Xianping City, saying that the city is short of food and is about to eat people!"

When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, he put down the bamboo scroll in his hand expressionlessly, not knowing what he was thinking, and then said lightly:

"Arrange another baggage convoy."

"Brother, this..." Zhao Guangyi hesitated to speak.

This team of baggage can be said to be a drop in the bucket for Xianping City.

On the contrary, such a huge loss of military equipment in the DPRK and the army has already attracted criticism.

"Report!"

Just at this time, a decree from the imperial court came.

Submit a letter: Recruitment is not allowed!

When Zhao Kuangyin saw these four words, his originally calm face finally lost its composure.

Snapped!

Zhao Kuangyin glared angrily and slapped the desk hard.

I saw that the solid wood desk turned into powder in an instant.

When Zhao Guangyi saw this, his heart thumped and he swallowed secretly.

I guess this is not good news.

"Lin Chenjia!"

Zhao Kuangyin suddenly gritted his teeth and read out these three words, as if he was filled with hatred.

"Sneeze!" Lin Chen rubbed his nose and felt someone calling his name from behind. "Who's talking about me?"

While he was thinking, Yang Qilang suddenly walked into the main hall, bowed and said:

"Sir, there is a man named Xue outside the door who claims to be an old friend and wants to see you."

"An old friend named Xue?"

After hearing Yang Qilang's description, Lin Chen's lips curled up slightly.

Is it finally here?

Xue Biao could not bear his temper. He came to visit him five days after he returned to Beijing.

"Invite him in." Lin Chen nodded.

Yang Qilang nodded to express his understanding.

As a fourth-grade military attache, Lin Chen can place two groups of personal guards in his mansion, which is thirty people.

Of course, these personal guards can only wear waist knives and long soldiers, and are not allowed to buy armor, bows and crossbows.

In ancient times, hiding armor was a serious crime of rebellion.

Li Tang is no exception.

The house that Lin Chen currently lives in was a gift from Li Zhao, and it only took a few days for him to move in.

There was no time to take care of the furnishings in the house, so he had to let the rough guy of the bodyguard clean it up.

Lin Chen didn't think anything about this.

Anyway, he basically doesn't live here, either going to the Prince's Mansion or looking for Xiao Zhaona.

Why do you have to live alone in this house with no maids or maids when you have a beautiful woman by your side?

outside the door.

Behind Xue Biao was a boy who was unloading gifts. Looking at the courtyard of the Lin Mansion in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Unexpectedly, General Lin's promotion speed was astonishing within two months.

After Xue Biao arrived in the capital, he naturally inquired about the rumors about Lin Chen.

A few months ago, the other party was a guard of the Prince's Mansion, and then he directly became the Commander-in-Chief of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities.

After returning to Beijing, he directly became a fourth-grade military general and was granted the title of county marquis!

What is this called?

Jane is in the emperor's heart!

Looking at it now, the big pie promised by the other party was not a lie to me.

Wow!

The door of the mansion is wide open.

Yang Wulang and several other guards came out and invited Xue Biao to come in.

"This is a gift from a certain family to Mr. Lin, please accept it."

"Your Majesty said that if the property is not collected, shopkeeper Xue can just invite him in alone."

Yang Wulang's attitude was quite kind.

"Not accepting property?"

Xue Biao was startled when he heard this.

Not knowing what kind of medicine Lin Chen bought in the gourd, he still walked in.

Entering the main hall, he saw Lin Chen already waiting for him.

Still wearing that ghost face, there was a cup of tea in front of him.

"Manager Xue, long time no see."

Lin Chen saw this and stood up to greet him with a smile.

"Don't dare! Don't dare!" Xue Biao looked frightened.

This is a genuine fourth-grade general, and Xue Biao really doesn't dare to put on any airs.

Seeing Lin Chen's friendly attitude, Xue Biao breathed a sigh of relief. Before he came, he was worried that Lin Chen would turn his back on others.

Looking at it now, it turns out that he was overthinking it.

After the two parties took their seats, they began to reminisce and chat.

Lin Chen asked Xue Biao whether it was his habit to live in the capital.

"The customs in this capital city are different from those in the south of the Yangtze River."

Xue Biao calmed down and chatted and laughed with Lin Chen.

"Of course, the water towns south of the Yangtze River are more nurturing than those in the north." Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

"Oh? General Lin has been to Jiangnan?"

Xue Biao became interested after hearing these words.

"Never." Lin Chen said confidently.

The corner of Xue Tao's mouth twitched slightly, but he didn't show anything. He still smiled and said:

"If you are lucky, Xue is willing to be the owner and invite General Lin to Jinling to have a look."

"Definitely next time."

After some small talk.

Lin Chen just mentioned business.

"Shopkeeper Xue is here to..."

Lin Chen looked at Xue Biao with an interested look.

"Exactly!"

Xue Biao, who knew what Lin Chen meant, nodded solemnly.

nature.

Xue Tadashi came here just for the business of refined salt and icing sugar.

"This is easy to handle..." Lin Chen rubbed his fingers on the outer wall of the teacup, "But before that, Shopkeeper Xue needs to build a workshop outside the city."

"Workshop?"

Xue Biao was stunned for a moment.

"This workshop is naturally for processing refined salt and icing sugar."

Lin Chen added.

"So that's it..." Xue Biao suddenly realized.

He had guessed before that the refined salt and icing sugar could not be conjured by Lin Chen out of thin air.

Only the other party has some way to refine such precious things.

"General Lin, how big do you think this workshop will be?"

Lin Chen opened his hand and made a five sign.

"Five acres of land?" Xue Biao read it subconsciously.

Lin Chen shook his head when he heard this and said a number that shocked Xue Biao.

"Five hectares!"

Xue Biao stayed in the Lin Mansion for less than half an hour before being sent out.

It's not that they haven't reached an agreement, but that Xue Biao is in a hurry to buy land.

These five hectares of land are not a small amount in the capital.

Of course, according to Lin Chen, these five hectares of land only require wasteland, but workshops and a place for craftsmen to rest must be built on it.

"With Xue Biao as the vanguard, it will not be difficult for other merchants in the capital to implement it."

Lin Chen looked at the still warm tea and muttered to himself.

Lin Chen, whose soul is a modern person, naturally knows that if he wants to provide disaster relief, he cannot rely on the imperial court alone.

Even if Shangguan Wan'er followed the disaster relief policy and started to build new canals in the capital with work instead of relief, she still wouldn't be able to use too many victims.

Today, there are still nearly 700,000 disaster victims outside the city in need of relief.
