Chapter 404 Is it worth it? (Thanks to the book friend Xiaolou Yunyan(1/2)

In the tenth year of Anhe, on October 13th, a special guest came to the Liaoyang Governor's Mansion.

"I'm Yun Hanjie, I've met the Governor!" He walked into the study and looked at Ye Mingsheng with a smile on his face. Yun Hanjie immediately bowed deeply.

Ye Mingsheng smiled and nodded, and then ordered the guard outside the door:

"Mr. Yun is old. It's not appropriate to stand for a long time. Please give Mr. Yun a seat!"

"Thank you, Lord Governor!" Yun Hanjie quickly handed over his hands and thanked him:

Feeling Ye Mingsheng's attitude towards him, the tension in Yun Hanjie's heart was reduced a lot. Just yesterday, he, Cui Shao, and Zhao Yu, the excluded representative of the Gongsun family, were invited to the Xiaoanshan shooting range and saw those numbers with their own eyes.

The terrifying scene of ten red cannons roaring together·················

In addition to seeing the power of the red cannon, they also visited the factory where the firearms are made. They watched the firearms being assembled and produced on the assembly line. This undoubtedly made them feel the powerful strength of the Fengwu Army.

Although he didn't know how Ye Mingsheng created these terrifying weapons, Yun Hanjie knew very well that Ye Mingsheng deliberately showed them these things after the military parade. This was definitely not a good intention and was an unabashed and naked threat.

!

Although he was very angry at Ye Mingsheng's arrogant behavior, after realizing the powerful strength of the Fengwu Army, Yun Hanjie dared not speak out.

Although he felt very aggrieved, with Ye Mingsheng now monopolizing power, Yun Hanjie knew that he could not forcefully confront Ye Mingsheng easily, so after discussing with his nephew Yun Guanjing, they were also prepared to cut their flesh and spit out some benefits for Ye Mingsheng.

Mingsheng···········

As soon as he sat down on the chair, he thought of Ye Mingsheng's straight-to-the-point style, so Yun Hanjie no longer planned to chat with Ye Mingsheng, but was ready to go straight to the point and tell Ye Mingsheng the benefits that the Yun family was ready to spit out.

Yun Hanjie just opened his mouth and before he had time to speak, Ye Mingsheng seemed to see what he was thinking. He smiled, waved his hand, pointed behind him and asked:

"Mr. Yun, what do you see behind me?"

Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Yun Hanjie, who was originally paying attention to Ye Mingsheng, raised his head and looked behind Ye Mingsheng.

On the wall behind Ye Mingsheng, there is a map of the Great Zhou Dynasty hanging, which records the various provinces, prefectures, counties, mountains and rivers in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The records are very detailed...

····

Looking at the map, Yun Hanjie was a little confused. He didn't know what Ye Mingsheng wanted to do, but he still said honestly:

"Tell me, sir, this is my map of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

Ye Mingsheng nodded when he heard this, then looked at Yun Hanjie and said:

"Mr. Yun, I heard that you are very knowledgeable and knowledgeable about the past and present. Now I have a question. Can you answer it for me?"

Ye Mingsheng's words immediately confused Yun Hanjie. He didn't know what Ye Mingsheng was doing and what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.

But looking at Ye Mingsheng's very sincere eyes, Yun Hanjie could only say calmly in response to any change:

"I wonder if you have any doubts, sir? Although Mr. Yun has little talent and little knowledge, he will tell you everything you know..."

Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng said directly:

"What I wonder about is the general trend of the world. Mr. Yun, can you tell me who will own this great country in the future?"

Hearing Ye Mingsheng's question, Yun Hanjie seemed to notice something, but he seemed a little unwilling to believe it. After thinking for a while, he said calmly:

"Looking at the following, although the Shangguan rebels have hundreds of thousands of troops and are resisting in Guanzhong, they have lost all the support of the people. The heroes of the world have also denounced them. The soldiers and horses protected by King Qin from all over the country are also preparing to set off. Otherwise,

How long will it take before they can be wiped out and your Majesty will return peace to the world?"

Ye Mingsheng was a little hesitant when he heard this, and then continued to ask:

"Mr. Yun also went to the Xiaoanshan shooting range yesterday and saw the firearms and training of our Fengwu Army. What do you think of our Fengwu Army's soldiers and horses?"

Although Yun Hanjie's reaction was a little slow, he was not stupid after all. If he had only made a guess just now, the question Ye Mingsheng followed now undoubtedly confirmed his idea.

Originally, he only thought that Ye Mingsheng was just trying to threaten them into cutting their flesh whether it was during the military parade or letting them go to the shooting range to watch the artillery fire. But now that he heard these two questions from Ye Mingsheng, he immediately understood what Ye Mingsheng had done.

The real purpose···················

If he guessed correctly, Ye Mingsheng's situation was much bigger than he imagined. Ye Mingsheng actually wanted to send troops into the pass, compete in the Central Plains, and compete for the world!

Yun Hanjie's heart suddenly sank when he realized something. If this was really the case, then Ye Mingsheng's appetite might be greater than he thought. The meat that the Yun family originally planned to cut would most likely not be enough to satisfy Ye Mingsheng.

Mingsheng··············

Looking at Yun Hanjie's uncertain expression, Ye Mingsheng knew that this old guy had already realized what he wanted to do. He immediately took a sip of tea, looked at Yun Hanjie and said without any cover-up:

"Mr. Yun, do you think Liaoyang works together and is united as one, and with the strength of my Fengwu army and firearms, what do you think the chances are of defeating Youyan?"

Regarding Ye Mingsheng's question, Yun Hanjie instinctively wanted to praise Ye Mingsheng, saying that Ye Mingsheng's deployment of troops would definitely be an immediate success and he would be victorious in every battle. However, as he spoke the words and felt Ye Mingsheng's sharp eyes, his words no matter what

I couldn't say anything, so I could only say with a wry smile:

"I'm stupid. I don't know the answer you want!"

Ye Mingsheng was a little dumbfounded when he heard this and continued with a smile:

"I'm dissatisfied with Mr. Yun. At the latest one year and the fastest next spring, Ye will march eastward and swallow up Youyan. Now all the departments of our Fengwu Army and the Coordination Office have begun to make preparations. Zhao Fuqu is still here

He didn't know anything, and he was preparing to attack Yunbin and Jinyang, but he didn't know that when he was fighting fiercely, it would be the day when I, Ye, would send out troops!"

After Ye Mingsheng finished speaking, Yun Hanjie's expression changed again. If Ye Mingsheng had told him this before going to the Xiaoanshan shooting range, he would have thought that Ye Mingsheng was bragging to him.

But after seeing the high momentum of the Fengwu Army and those terrifying red cannons during the military parade, he knew that Ye Mingsheng was serious. He really intended to do this and had the ability to do it...

········

Thinking of this, Yun Hanjie knew that he couldn't pretend to be stupid with Ye Mingsheng. He took a deep breath, looked at Ye Mingsheng and said solemnly:

"Your Excellency, would you like to reveal such a secret to me? Are you afraid that the information will be leaked and affect your next plans?"

Ye Mingsheng smiled and asked:

"So what if the news is leaked? So what if Zhao Fuqu knows? Taking a step back, as Mr. Yun from Liaoyang, would you do this?"

After saying this, Ye Mingsheng continued without waiting for Yun Hanjie to answer:

"I stabbed Zhao Fuqu in the back while he was fighting, just to reduce the losses. Even if I attack Zhao Fuqu from the front, I will never be able to stop the Tiger Guards of my Fengwu Army!"

Feeling the strength and confidence revealed in Ye Mingsheng's words, Yun Hanjie's mood undoubtedly became heavier. After pondering for a while, he raised his hands to Ye Mingsheng and said:

"The Governor has great ambitions, and is a blessing to Liaoyang. My Yun family is willing to follow you, and I am willing to donate 200,000 taels of silver, 50,000 pieces of cloth, 30,000 rock salt, and ten shops in Dongning City..."

········”

At this point, Yun Hanjie took a peek at Ye Mingsheng's face. Seeing that Ye Mingsheng's expression was still as calm as water, making it difficult to see any emotions, Yun Hanjie couldn't help but feel cruel, gritted his teeth and added:

"And my Yun family has 20,000 acres of fertile land in Sanhe County, Dongning Prefecture, and 5,000 acres of fertile land in Fengshan County. These are all willing to be dedicated to you!"

Hearing the bargaining chip given by Yun Hanjie, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but be a little surprised. This old guy was so courageous!

Although the Yun family is rich, after being raided by Song Wenhui and the Zhenwu Army, even the Yun family can't bear it. It is estimated that the things Yun Hanjie has taken out now are the only remaining assets of the Yun family.

, Ye Mingsheng had also guessed that the Yun family would try to cut off meat to feed himself, but he did not expect that they would cut off so much.

Yun Hanjie looked at Ye Mingsheng with both pain and anxiety. The price he just offered to Ye Mingsheng was already the limit that the Yun family could bear...

·

Before meeting Ye Mingsheng, he and his nephew, the current Yun family member, remembered that Yun Guanjing had many discussions to decide how much meat to cut for Ye Mingsheng. Yun Hanjie was quite confident in the quotation and believed that they Yun

Ye Mingsheng was moved by his sincerity.

But unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes. Now that he felt the power and ambition of Fengwu Army, Yun Hanjie knew clearly that his original quotation would not satisfy Ye Mingsheng, so he could only increase the quotation significantly without authorization, and added another

In addition, there are 25,000 acres of fertile farmland.

To be honest, after saying these things, Yun Hanjie's heart was not only bleeding, but also felt extremely guilty, blaming himself for ruining the family business left by the ancestors of the Yun family!

Faced with such a generous offer made by Yun Hanjie, Ye Mingsheng would be lying if he said he was not impressed. Now he would eat the meat cut off by the Yun family.

If the meat is cut off from the Gongsun family and the Cui family as usual, Ye Mingsheng will not have to worry about finances until at least next autumn. By then, Ye Mingsheng may have captured Youyan. After capturing Youyan, Ye Mingsheng will be financially responsible.

There is more room for maneuver...

If it were not Ye Mingsheng at this time, but another person who faced Yun Hanjie's offer, he might have really accepted the conditions and reconciled with a privileged class like the Yun family. But when Ye Mingsheng came to this world, he felt

After ordinary people suffered from slavery and oppression, and all kinds of endless sufferings, he developed a sense of mission in his heart!

Although Ye Mingsheng never thought that he was a good person, he believed that since God brought him here and gave him this opportunity, he wanted to do something for the ordinary people, so that they could have food, clothing, and health.

With money for medical treatment, they don't have to sell their children or daughters during the famine years, so that they can live a quality and dignified life without having to worry about death or who will come first tomorrow.

There is only so much output in a world. If you eat more, others will eat less. Therefore, if Ye Mingsheng wants to fulfill his wish, he must seize the interests of the privileged classes such as nobles and nobles and redistribute them.

The cake is divided among more people.

As the saying goes, "If you don't forget your original intention, you will always succeed!"

Under the gaze of Yun Hanjie, Ye Mingsheng chose to shake his head. Seeing Ye Mingsheng shaking his head, Yun Hanjie also became a little angry. The old man stood up from his chair and spoke to Ye Mingsheng very seriously.

Emphasized:

"Lord Governor, this is already the limit of what our Yun family can afford. We have spent all the savings of several generations of our Yun family. If you ask for more, the whole Yun family will have to go to the streets to beg for food..."

···············”

In response to Yun Hanjie's anger, Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and said;

"Mr. Yun, don't be anxious, stay calm and don't be impatient! Sit down and talk!"

After hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Yun Hanjie suppressed his anger and reluctantly sat back on the chair.
To be continued...
