Chapter 599: The Prince Consort is truly a God! (Subscribe please!!)
Hearing the officials of the Ministry of Revenue enthusiastically discussing the method arranged by Ouyang Lun, Guo Zi also laughed.
"I've said it before, as long as the Prince Consort is here, there's no need to worry about not having a solution!"
"Now it proves that I was right!"
Upon hearing this, all the officials in the Ministry of Revenue started to praise Guo Zi.
"Master Guo is indeed the Prince Consort's confidant. He can always guess what the Prince Consort is thinking!"
"That's not right. Don't we think about the relationship between Lord Guo and the Prince Consort? They have been through hardships together!"
"The Prince Consort specially sent someone to deliver the golden sachet, which is enough to show how much he values Lord Guo!"
After hearing these words, the smile on Guo Zi's face never stopped.
"Haha! My dear colleagues, I am not used to your praise of me like this!" Guo Zi said with a smile: "But you are right about one thing, that is, I, Guo Zi, have experienced a lot with the Prince Consort!"
"I, Guo Zi, cannot be where I am today without the help of the Prince Consort!"
"Now that the Prince Consort has thought of a solution for us, what we have to do is to implement it thoroughly!"
"In addition, the gift bag given by the Prince Consort also said that we should publish the news in major newspapers and magazines, and tell the people openly that our Ming Dynasty's royal army will soon set out to deal with the Northern Yuan Dynasty and completely solve the border troubles in the northern border. If there are people who are willing to sell their stored grain to the court and meet certain standards, the Ministry of Revenue can issue a plaque for supporting the country and the army, and exempt taxes for at least three years!"
After hearing what Guo Zi said, all the officials in the Ministry of Revenue were dumbfounded.
They were deeply shocked. They did not expect that the methods Ouyang Lun came up with were one more powerful than the last. They could easily imagine that once this notice was sent out, it would cause a huge stir!
Before, they were still worried that the merchants would take advantage of the opportunity to make a profit, but Ouyang Lun directly gave them an advance warning, which first cut off the merchants' thoughts, and then arranged for the acquisition of resources. With the dual blessing of honor and benefits, he directly made the merchants and the people take the initiative to hand over the food in their hands!
Moreover, the officials of the Ministry of Revenue also noticed a more important piece of information, that is, the place for collecting materials was set in Northern Zhili. In other words, if merchants wanted to trade with the court, they had to transport the food and materials in their hands to Northern Zhili!
That's great.
Just skip the material allowance part! !
You know, when they were counting the materials before, they also had to calculate how to transport these materials after they were purchased. But now, according to the son-in-law's method, they can completely arrange a warehouse in Beizhili and wait for the merchants to deliver these things to their door!
The officials of the Ministry of Revenue are very clear about the transportation capabilities of merchants. Since the merchants have been doing business all year round, they are the real experts in material transportation. They can say when something will arrive, and even take weather conditions into consideration!
Overall, it is more efficient than the imperial court. Even a lot of transportation work of the Ministry of Revenue is still handed over to private trading companies, so there is no problem at all in terms of material transportation!
Moreover, now is no longer the same as before. The official roads built by the Ming Dynasty are connected in all directions. There are several expressways from south to north, so the transportation speed cannot be slowed down at all!
"The Prince Consort is truly a god!"
"You always come up with ideas that we can't even imagine!"
"Yes, yes! Following the Prince Consort is rewarding."
Hearing these words, Guo Zi smiled and said immediately: "Since you all say this method is good, why don't you act quickly! It has been several days, and so many eyes are staring at us!" Guo Zi muttered: "Now that we have all the methods, if you still don't get things done, it will be a huge shame!"
"Yes, yes, I will arrange it!"
"My subordinates will go too!"
Soon the officials of the Ministry of Revenue took action again.
After all, it was a matter of the emperor's imperial decree, and it had been delayed for several days. Now they had to speed up their actions, and the officials of the Ministry of Revenue dared not delay even a little.
Just as the officials of the Ministry of Revenue were getting busy, Lan Yu walked in with a gloomy face and his hands behind his back.
"Where is Ouyang Lun? Where did Ouyang Lun go?!"
"Hurry up and let Ouyang Lun come out to see this great general!!"
As soon as Lan Yu came in, he started shouting, not caring at all that this was in the Ministry of Revenue, nor did he care whether his behavior would disturb other officials' work.
Seeing this, Guo Zi hurried forward and said, "Hey, isn't this the Duke of Liang, the General of the Military Cabinet, the General Po Lu who was personally appointed by His Majesty?"
"General, you have come. I am sorry for not coming to greet you. Please calm down, General!"
Lan Yu was about to get angry when he heard Guo Zi coming forward to greet him, but he ended up hearing Guo Zi calling out a long list of his titles and that his treatment was very good. He immediately felt comfortable and even though he was angry, he pretended not to show it.
"Master Guo, you were also the Minister of Revenue in the past. Since you followed Ouyang Lun, you have become the Vice Minister of Revenue. This position has become lower. I think you should stop following Ouyang Lun and just follow this general. As long as we have the support of the Huaixi Party, we will definitely make you the Minister of Revenue again!"
Lan Yu smiled and tried to win him over.
Hearing Lan Yu's words, Guo Zi was also a little surprised. He never expected that Lan Yu would be so direct!
"General, you are joking. The ability of the Prince Consort is obvious to all people in the world. Even His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Retired Emperor have praised him. If we get rid of him like this, wouldn't it be a great pity!"
"In addition, the Prince Consort has been very kind to me. If I abandon him and go to Huaixi, wouldn't that make me an unrighteous person?"
"I am very happy to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Thank you for your kindness, General!"
Faced with the olive egg thrown by Lan Yu, Guo Zi refused without thinking.
Hearing what Guo Zi said, Lan Yu understood instantly. He knew that it was impossible to persuade Guo Zi to rebel. He snorted coldly, "Sir Guo, I am not here to discuss that bastard Ouyang Lun with you. I just want to ask you. It has been several days since His Majesty issued the imperial decree, but I have not seen the supplies and military expenses of the expeditionary army!!"
"Ouyang Lun accepted the position of the logistics chief of my expeditionary army in front of the emperor and the emperor emeritus. Now it's time for him to contribute!"
"Hurry up and call Ouyang Lun to come to me. If he can't do it, then he should step down and let others do the work instead of standing there doing nothing."
After saying that, Lan Yu shouted towards the depths of the Ministry of Revenue: "Ouyang Lun! Hurry up and come out to me, General. Don't hide. It's useless. I will definitely pull you out today!"
"If you can't solve the problem of military expenses and supplies today, this general will drag you to see His Majesty the Emperor and the Emperor Emeritus, and expose your ugly faces in front of them!"
Hearing Lan Yu's words, Guo Zi's mouth twitched. This Lan Yu is really weird!
Of course, the word "weird" was just something Ouyang Lun muttered in his mind but he didn't say it out loud.
"In response to General Lan Yu, the Prince Consort is not at the Ministry of Revenue at all, so there is no way for you to go and meet him!" Guo Zi shook his head.
"Huh!?" Lan Yu became even angrier after hearing what Guo Zi said!
"What! It's already this time, and this Ouyang Lun doesn't even come to the Ministry of Revenue. What is he planning to do?!"
After saying that, Lan Yu looked at Guo Zi with wide eyes again, "Sir Guo, as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, although you are Ouyang Lun's subordinate, but your superior is not on duty, do you also have the responsibility of supervision as the Minister?"
"Why don't you report this to the Emperor?"
Hearing this, Guo Zi spread his hands and said, "General Lan, what you said is a bit harsh. Since you know that the Prince Consort is my superior, it makes no sense for a subordinate to sue his superior. Could it be that your subordinates in your military camp will expose some of your affairs?" "What can this general say!" Lan Yu said unconvinced.
"General, you should know whether there is something wrong or not. There is no need to talk nonsense with me here!" Guo Zi was not afraid at all and continued, "Besides, you are not worthy of being compared with my son-in-law. If you have nothing else to do, please go back! I have to start working. If I delay the progress, I will report you to His Majesty!"
"you--!"
Guo Zi's words almost made Lan Yu explode with anger, and he was ready to take action on the spot. However, just when Lan Yu was about to take action, officials from the Ministry of Revenue and guards rushed in. It was obvious that as long as Lan Yu made any move, they would also take action.
"Everyone in the court knows that General Lan Yu is a skilled martial artist. However, as the most important office in the imperial court, the Ministry of Revenue has very good defense measures. If the general really takes action, you may not be able to leave the Ministry of Revenue safely!"
Guo Zi said quite calmly.
After hearing what Guo Zi said, Lan Yu, who was originally angry, gradually calmed down.
Even he had to admit that Guo Zi was right. The Ministry of Revenue was one of the most important places in the court. There were many Jinyiwei and imperial guards. If he took action here, he would be subdued quickly, and he would be in big trouble then.
"Humph!"
"Guo Zi, you are just a lackey of Ouyang Lun. Remember what happened this time!"
After saying these harsh words, Lan Yu immediately turned away.
It was not until Lan Yu completely left the Ministry of Revenue that the tense atmosphere within the Ministry of Revenue dissipated.
"Sir, are we just going to let him go?"
An official from the Ministry of Revenue said in confusion.
"What else? What can we do? Really arrest Lan Yu? He is now the General Po Lu. The emperor and the emperor emeritus will probably be very angry by then." Guo Zi said helplessly.
"That being said, we have completely offended Lan Yu today. What if Lan Yu deals with us?" the official from the Ministry of Revenue continued.
"Haha, don't worry about that!" Guo Zi said with a smile: "Didn't Lan Yu just say that I, Guo, am a running dog of the Prince Consort? As the saying goes, even a big dog needs its master. If Lan Yu can't deal with the Prince Consort, how can he deal with us!"
"Let the Prince Consort worry about this matter, and we just need to do our job well!"
"Yes."
On the other hand, after Lan Yu was rejected by the Ministry of Revenue, he became more and more unwilling to accept it!
"Don't let this fellow Guo Zi fall into my hands from now on. I will make him pay!"
"Damn Ouyang Lun, he actually did nothing. We can't just let this go!"
"Go to the clan house! Go and settle accounts with Ouyang Lun!"
After a quick thought, Lan Yu immediately headed towards the clan residence.
When he arrived at the clan residence, Lan Yu rushed in without waiting for the servants to report.
Soon, Lan Yu rushed in aggressively and came to the garden, just in time to see Ouyang Lun lying on a rocking chair, fishing with a fishing rod in his hand. There was a beautiful maid serving him beside him. He looked as leisurely as he could be.
Lan Yu exploded immediately.
"Ouyang Lun!!"
"Your Majesty and the Emperor Emeritus have ordered me to lead the army to conquer the Northern Yuan Dynasty as the General of Breaking the Enemy. You are the general manager of the army's logistics. Where are the military funds and supplies now?! This general hasn't even seen a single hair!"
Lan Yu asked angrily and resentfully.
It's exactly the attitude of a superior towards his subordinates.
Hearing the voice, Ouyang Lun turned his head to look at Lan Yu. His originally relaxed brows suddenly frowned, and there was a look of disgust in his eyes and face.
"Lan Yu, this is the clan residence, not your Duke of Liang's residence. As a general, you have committed a serious crime by trespassing into the clan residence!"
"Get out of here right now! Otherwise, we will capture you. Not only will you not be able to be your Great General, but you will also lose your current title and official position!"
Ouyang Lun said in a deep voice.
Hearing Ouyang Lun's words, Lan Yu's face changed, but he did not leave. Instead, he said in a deep voice: "Ouyang Lun, don't accuse me of any crime. I, Lan Yu, was not scared!"
"You must give this general an explanation today!"
Lan Yu's words had just fallen.
Swish--
Dozens of masters rushed out and surrounded Lan Yu, as if they were going to take Lan Yu down in the next second.
At this time, Ouyang Lun also stood up from the rocking chair, put his hands behind his back and looked at Lan Yu, "Lan Yu, don't make me say it again!"
"This is not the place for you to yell and scream. You broke in without my permission and said a bunch of nonsense. If you continue to make trouble like this, I will not only arrest you, but the expeditionary army will not be able to get any supplies!!"
Lan Yu has run into Ouyang Lun's trap!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao are not easy to scold, but the old man Li Shanchang is tired of scolding them.
It’s a good opportunity to scold this guy Lan Yu!
Originally, Ouyang Lun didn't want to get involved in the conquest of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. It was completely forced upon him by Zhu Yuanzhang. And now you, Lan Yu, come here to cause trouble!
Lan Yu was also frightened by the angry Ouyang Lun.
"Ouyang Lun, I am the Great General who was personally appointed by His Majesty and the Emperor Retired. I will lead the troops to the battle soon. If you touch me, you will not be able to explain to His Majesty and the Emperor Retired!"
Lan Yu was so angry with Ouyang Lun that he really wanted to rush up and teach him a lesson. He had never been threatened like this in so many years! But he encountered this twice in one day!
But this is Ouyang Lun's territory after all, if we really want to take action...
