Chapter 157: Businessmen only care about immediate benefits



Chapter 157: Businessmen only care about immediate benefits

Dongzhou is not far from Liangcheng, and they entered Dongzhou the next morning.

Although the Chang family still has Princess Rong, they are no longer the number one family in Dongzhou. The position of number one family in Dongzhou has been taken over by the Qin family.

Many well-informed family officials in Anguo knew that Hui Chengyuan was building a granary, and even many ordinary people knew it, but no one knew where he was going to build it unless he notified them in advance.

For example, when returning to the city, he arranged for someone to notify in advance, mainly because there was no Yuanlai Inn or villa there, so he notified the county magistrate in advance and asked him to arrange a small courtyard for them to stay in temporarily.

The head of the Qin family had already received a letter saying that the prince was returning to the city to build a granary, so he guessed that his next step would either be to Dongzhou or head towards Kyoto, so he arranged for someone to watch at the north gate.

Knowing that the prince had really come to Dongzhou, Qin Jie, the head of the Qin family, immediately went out to greet the prince. Qin He, the eldest son of the Qin family, stopped him and said, "Father, the prince's trip is confidential. If you go out to greet him now, he will only think that you are spying on his whereabouts, which is not worth the loss."

"Let's wait until His Royal Highness is settled before we go to his house."

Qin Jie thought so too, patted Qin He on the shoulder, and went back.

Hui Chengyuan and his group stayed at Yuanlai Inn.

After breakfast, Yuanman began to think about whether she should buy a house in Dongzhou.

Hui Chengyuan stopped her and said, "We will only stay in Dongzhou for a few days, so there is no need to buy a villa. If there is anything, we can go to the government office to discuss it. They will not come to the inn."

So Yuanman gave up this idea.

The next day, the Qin family sent a visiting card, saying that they wanted to visit the Crown Princess.

Yuanman refused without even thinking about it.

The Qin family replaced the Chang family as the number one family in Dongzhou. She didn't want to deal with them even if she had the time.

I accepted the invitation from the Qin family today, and tomorrow I will receive more visiting invitations from noble families. Fortunately, I didn't meet any of them.

After a day's rest, after Hui Chengyuan went to take care of the granary affairs, she went to Xunxian Tower.

She got some information about the officials of the aristocratic families here, but she didn't take any profits during this period.

Sure enough, the information she obtained was very useful.

In the eyes of those aristocratic families, once the granary is built, their grain business will definitely be affected, so naturally they don't want the granary to be built.

So they are just wealthy businessmen who only care about immediate benefits and don’t care about their future lives.

It’s not that they are not afraid of Crown Prince Hui Chengyuan, but when it comes to interests, some people will be blindly confident.

The Qin family had just become the number one family in Dongzhou, so they naturally wouldn't run into this bad luck, but Qin Jie self-righteously fanned the flames behind the scenes.

After Hui Chengyuan read the information Yuan Man obtained from Xunxian Tower, he directly raided two families with numerous criminal records.

For a time, the noble families in Dongzhou were well-behaved.

Because of the jokes of the noble families, the time for building the granary was prolonged. They stayed in Dongzhou for nearly 20 days before the granary was completed.

Hui Chengyuan warned all the noble families, then popularized the laws regarding granaries, and even warned Qin Jie in front of all the noble families.

Qin Jie's face turned extremely pale after being scolded by him. He didn't expect that even though he did it so secretly, the prince could still find out.

Qin He stood behind Qin Jie with his eyes lowered and his brows frowned. He was in awe of the prince and at the same time, he was very puzzled by what his father had done.

Since he wanted to leave a good impression in front of the prince, why did he incite others to cause trouble? Isn't this just courting death?

After returning home, after listening to Qin Jie's explanation, Qin He was speechless, "Father, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not stupid."

"Everyone under his command is an elite. If you want to know if there is someone behind this, you can find out with a simple investigation."

If you want to stand out as a kind person among a bunch of bad people, you have to be kind yourself.

After Hui Chengyuan scolded Qin Jie, he didn't care whether their Qin family would be affected by this. He confirmed that everything about the granary had been arranged before preparing to leave Dongzhou.

After leaving Dongzhou, they headed towards Kyoto, and their next stop was Mingzhou City.

As soon as he entered Mingzhou City, Yuanman said he wanted to move back to his house on Yonghe Street.

Yuan Man hadn't been back to Mingzhou City for a long time, so when he came back he naturally lived in his own home.

Li Zhong saw his master returning with the little master, and happily ordered everyone to get moving, "In the blink of an eye, the little master has grown up so much, time flies so fast."

"Master, you must have been tired on the journey. The room has been cleaned up. Please go and have a rest first."

Yuan Man nodded and looked at Hui Chengyuan and asked, "Do you want to take a rest first and deal with the granary matter tomorrow?"

Hui Chengyuan nodded, "Okay."

After a day's rest, Hui Chengyuan went to do some work the next day. Just as Yuanman was about to take Yuanbao out for a walk, Mrs. Gu came to visit.

Yuan Man had a good impression of Mrs. Gu, so he asked Li Zhong to bring her in.

What surprised her was that Mrs. Gu came not for any other reason, but for Gu Cheng.

Ask her if she has any sisters or something, and arrange a marriage for Gu Cheng.

After Yuan Man talked with Madam Gu, he burst out laughing. "Okay, Madam, I will definitely keep an eye out for Master Gu. But forget about the arranged marriage. If he doesn't like the one he chooses, they will just be a couple of resentment."

Mrs. Gu was anxious. Originally, the prince had not married and had no children. She thought that Gu Cheng was crooked. Even if he was not crooked, there was still someone to compare him to. Now that the prince was married and his son would be gone, she became even more anxious.

After seeing Mrs. Gu off, Yuan Man told Hui Chengyuan about this.

Hui Chengyuan knew Gu Chen's personality and said with a smile, "He may seem a bit irrelevant, but he has a strong sense of responsibility. If he meets a suitable person, we can help him get together."

Next, Yuan Man did not receive the wives of other officials. Instead, he took Yuan Bao out for a walk and visited the farm.

[Ding, next check-in point, Haicheng.]

Haicheng?

Yuan Man could almost memorize the map of Anguo, but Haicheng seemed to be missing from his memory.

Could it be that the sign-in maps of other countries have been opened?

"System, which country is Haicheng from?"

[Yunguo, a city by the sea.]

Yuan Man: “…”

Is the span really that big?

She had just finished signing in for the map, and was a little lazy, so she got a route this far away.

This system can't stand seeing her being idle or enjoying herself.

She had only been intimate with her dear husband for a short time when he wanted to go to a foreign country.

There are two sea cliffs in Yun State, one spans the south of Song State, and the other spans the south of Zhao State. They are at least 180,000 miles away from her now.

She did not tell Hui Chengyuan immediately about her plan to go to Yun Kingdom, but planned to tell him after he finished building the granary in Mingzhou City.

What she didn't expect was that he would go with her.

"Aren't there still a few granaries that haven't been built? Would it be appropriate for you to follow me?"

Hui Chengyuan smiled and nodded, "It's appropriate. Wanmin Bridge has been built. I have sent a message to Gu Cheng to follow up on the construction of granaries in Yucheng and Jiucheng."

"As for the last two granaries left, the one in Kyoto will be supervised by my father, and the one in Jin'an City will be built after Gu Cheng returns."

"In this way, this year's goal will be achieved. If the flood season does not come next year, we will consider the granary in the south."

"Gu Cheng is back, so Madam Gu can arrange for him to meet a girl."

Yuan Man smiled and nodded, "Okay, it's time to give Gu Cheng a chance to see the girl, so let him see her nearby, and we'll go to Yun Country to play together."

I silently lit a stick of incense for Gu Cheng in my heart, wishing that he could find the girl of his dreams as soon as possible.

She also hoped that she could sign in to the map once, and then she could arrange it freely.
