Chapter 844(2/2)
"That's not the case!" Chu Chaoyang said after careful consideration: "Pei Shizhen brought Yunjian to surrender. My father doesn't know what is going on in Yunjian City. If Pei Shizhen has other intentions..."
The emperor said: "Yunjian City can only be built now. Pei Shiwei will take office soon, but his father and his in-laws are both in the capital, so there is nothing to be afraid of. As for Princess Sangyu, she is a woman and is willing to pay.
You don’t have to worry too much if you put in the effort.”
Chu Chaoyang said: "Father, people from the public are paying for this matter, why must this matter be handed over to Mu Qingyu? I think my father can select some more people from the imperial merchants in the capital.
Share the burden, this way, she will avoid getting a good reputation by herself!"
"Is there a suitable candidate for my son?"
Chu Chaoyang said: "My son is in the capital during this time and is very concerned about some information. There is an imperial businessman named Dongfang Moye. He has outstanding abilities and is willing to share the worries of my father. For those refugees, my father might as well let him
Divert half of it!”
The emperor said: "It's not impossible. Let me see this person first before I talk!"
Chu Chaoyang smiled.
If Mu Qingyu is a person promoted by his father, he will be closer to his father in the future. Then if he promotes Dongfang Moye, Dongfang Moye will be more useful to him in the future.
With Chu Chaoyang's help, the emperor quickly summoned Dongfang Moye.
In the majestic palace, with its long palace walls, Dongfang Moye, who had changed into a black robe, slowly walked forward under the guidance of the palace servants. There was no expression on his face, but there was a dark color deep in his eyes.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair and watched him walk into the palace step by step.
He has a tall figure, steady steps, and extraordinary bearing. This was the emperor's first impression of Dongfang Moye.
An imperial businessman whose magnanimity is not inferior to that of his prince, there is something about this Dongfang Moye.
Dongfang Moye didn't seem to feel the emperor's attention. After entering the palace, he saluted in a formal manner: "Fangfang Moye, a common man, has seen my emperor. Long live, long live, long live!"
"Pingshen!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Dongfang Moye stood up and said nothing.
The emperor said: "Looking at how young you are, you look like a talented person. You are truly a hero born from a young age!"
"Your Majesty, this is a great award! The common people are unworthy of it!" Dongfang Moye's voice was calm, a bit unfazed.
The emperor said: "There is no need to be so humble. The Ninth Prince said that you have outstanding abilities, care about the people, and are willing to share the worries of the court. I wonder if this is true?"
"It's natural for the common people to be able to share the worries of the imperial court!" Dongfang Moye said: "Although the common people are a businessman, they will never give up if they can do their best!"
The emperor said slowly: "Now that Southern Qi has invaded, Dongxia has lost several cities in a row. Mr. Dongfang must have known about it with his businessman's sense of smell! I wonder what Mr. Dongfang thinks?" His deep eyes fell on Dongfang Moye's face.
Go up, as if you want to see into the depths of his heart.
Dongfang Moye pondered for a moment and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Back to the emperor, the common people have indeed heard that the border is somewhat unstable and that Southern Qi is ambitious. Fortunately, Dongxia has elite soldiers and generals who will surely drive the evil thieves of Southern Qi out of the country. The emperor does not need to
I'm worried. It's just that there will be losses in the war. I'm willing to donate a million taels of silver to fill the military supplies!"
His eyes were calm and his expression was calm. He did not appear anxious or uneasy about facing the emperor, nor was he in any way arrogant.
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Oh, Mr. Dongfang is quite generous!"
Dongfang Moye said modestly: "As the emperor's merchants of Eastern Xia, the common people themselves should bear more responsibilities than ordinary businessmen. When the country is in trouble, everyone has the responsibility. War consumes money, and the common people cannot join the battlefield. Donate money and materials.
Show your heart!"
The emperor was very happy to hear what he said sincerely, and said: "Mr. Dongfang is so righteous, I am very pleased! In that case, you can directly contact Mr. Toki-sama!"
"According to the order!"
Chu Chaoyang personally sent Dongfang Moye out.
He sighed and said: "Mr. Dongfang, I recommended you to my father because I wanted you to achieve great things. I didn't expect that Mr. Dongfang only proposed to donate money and materials, and ended up giving up this great opportunity to others!"
Dongfang Moye bowed his hands and saluted: "Your Majesty, Ninth Prince, I apologize for my stupidity. Isn't it because the emperor summoned me today because the treasury is in urgent need of money?"
"My Mr. Dongfang, is there still a shortage of this money in the national treasury? Where can't it be moved?" Chu Chaoyang stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder like a cocoon, saying: "Southern Qi has several cities in a row, and there are many refugees. Nasangyu County
The Lord is a smart man. He took the opportunity to settle the refugees and gained a lot of good reputation among the people. Then I thought about letting Mr. Dongfang get a share of the pie. But Mr. Dongfang didn’t want it, but I was too hasty!”
Dongfang Moye said hurriedly: "It turns out that Your Highness is so considerate of me. Oh, I really didn't think so much. I'm sorry, but Your Highness is far-sighted and I am short-sighted!"
"It's not that serious!" Chu Chaoyang said: "My father already knows about you, and he will also use you in the future! Don't take it to heart, Mr. Dongfang. There will be many places for this prince and your husband to cooperate in the future!"
