Beast King Three Kingdoms

Chapter 121 Making money and being happy

"Brother seems to value the red stone very much." Cai Yan looked at Yuan Shu curiously.

"Yan'er is really observant." Yuan Shu said with a smile.

After a pause, Yuan Shu asked: "Yan'er! You said that carving those red stones into seals, what is the effect?"

Chicken blood stone is known as the queen of seals in later generations, and it is best used as a seal.

Cai Yan suddenly realized, and said: "I thought my elder brother was going to carve it into a decoration, but it turned out to be a seal!"

"Hehe!" Yuan Shu shook his head with a smile, and said, "The red stones can be big or small, let alone the big ones, and the small ones won't be worth too much if they are carved into ornaments. But the seals should be liked by many people. .”

"Brother is also one party... a big family with a lot of money, don't you want to be so philistine and make people laugh?" Now the Yuan family's business is spread all over the country, and the wealth is enough to rival the country. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu is not satisfied. He wants to go shopping with her. Looking at the business, Cai Yan felt slightly dissatisfied, and looked at Yuan Shu with contempt.

Yuan Shu smiled slightly, leaned close to Cai Yan's ear, and said in a low voice: "If I don't want to make money, how can I afford to support the three beautiful wives at home?"

"Speech!" Cai Yan blushed slightly and looked at Yuan Shu angrily.

"Hey!" Yuan Shu didn't care, with a smirk on his face.

After playing around for a while, turning back to the topic, Yuan Shu asked Cai Yan again.

Cai Yan pondered for a while, and said: "Red is festive, and the meaning is also very good. It's really good."

"En!" Yuan Shu nodded slightly, touched his chin, and said in a low voice, "But now is not the time."

"What did elder brother say?" Cai Yan didn't hear clearly.

Yuan Shu looked at Cai Yan with a smile, and said, "The time has not yet come!"

Cai Yan looked confused and looked at Yuan Shu in confusion.

Yuan Shu smiled, but did not explain, he will not launch the bloodstone seal until another thing is born.

After going out for a trip and finding a new way to make money, Yuan Shu was in a good mood and went shopping with Cai Yan for a while. Move back home.

Back home, Cai Yan went to find Zou Jia and Diao Chan with gifts.

Yuan Shu ordered Yuan Feng to come to discuss the matter.

"This old servant has met the Patriarch." Yuan Feng bowed and bowed.

"Uncle Feng! How many times have I told you that there is no need to be so polite." Yuan Shu said helplessly.

"Etiquette cannot be discarded." Yuan Feng was extremely persistent.

Yuan Shu couldn't resist, so he had no choice but to let him go.

At that moment, Yuan Shu took out the chicken-blood stone ornament he bought from the shop before, and asked Yuan Feng, "Uncle Feng! Have you seen this kind of stone before?"

With that said, he handed over the bloodstone.

Yuan Feng took it, looked at it carefully for a while, and replied: "This seems to be the red stone of Jiangdong."

"Uncle Feng?" Yuan Shu's spirit was shaken, and he looked at Yuan Feng expectantly.

Yuan Feng nodded slightly, and said, "In the countryside of Yuhang, there are many such stones."

"That's right!" Yuan Shu didn't know the specific location of Changhua, he only remembered that it was around Hangzhou, and Hangzhou was Yuhang at this time.

Immediately, Yuan Shu ordered Yuan Feng to use his family power to go to Jiangdong to mine chicken blood stones.

Yuan Feng responded.

Just when Yuan Shu was about to let him go down, Yuan Feng suddenly said: "Master Patriarch values ​​it very much. This old slave has two important burdens. However, he is old and weak and feels powerless. I hope Patriarch will find another person to share it."

Yuan Shu was taken aback for a moment, then came back to his senses, and took a deep look at Yuan Feng.

Yuan Feng was originally the chief steward of the Yuan family. After Yuan Shu's transformation, he also served as the secretary of the finance department. He played a pivotal role both internally and externally.

"Don't worry, Uncle Feng, I'm definitely not the kind of person who can't hide everything." Yuan Shu said seriously.

Yuan Feng shook his head, and said: "This old slave doesn't mean that. The old slave has seen the means of the master over the years. If we want to completely separate the inside and the outside, we need to start from ourselves."

Yuan Shu looked at the old butler in surprise, and felt horrified in his heart.

"Jiang Huan is really old and hot! These old guys have extraordinary eyesight." Yuan Shu thought secretly.

After pondering for a moment, Yuan Shu nodded and said, "There is no candidate right now. Uncle Feng will be lucky for a while, and I will make arrangements later."

"The Patriarch just needs to know it in his heart." A smile appeared on Yuan Feng's wrinkled old face.

Afterwards, Yuan Feng bid farewell and left, leaving only Yuan Shu sitting in the hall.

"Separation of inside and outside is easier said than done!"

Shaking his head, Yuan Shu stopped thinking, got up and walked towards the inner courtyard.

……

For several days in a row, Yuan Shu never came out to take care of the matter, and stayed at home all day at ease. Gu Yong, Xun You and others were quite critical of this.

"Should the lord be indulging in the boudoir?" Everyone guessed.

After discussing in secret, it was decided that Gu Yong would go out and test it out.

Gu Yong came to Yuan Shu's home by reporting on the water conservancy of the Huaihe River and Dajiang River.

In the lobby, Gu Yong reported to Yuan Shu while observing his expression.

"So, the diversion of the Huaihe River has been completely completed?" After Gu Yong finished speaking, Yuan Shu asked.

"Exactly! The longest waterway starts from Shouchun, flows through Hefei, and finally flows into Chaohu Lake." Seeing Yuan Shu's performance, Gu Yong felt a little at ease.

"Very good!" Yuan Shu nodded in satisfaction, and said, "With the opening of the waterway, the connection between Huainan and Jiangdong will be closer, and the exchange of goods will be much easier. We can already foresee the prosperity in the future!"

After a pause, he continued: "The Huaihe River is over, but the Dajiang River has not yet been resolved, so you can't slack off."

Hearing this, Gu Yong was completely relieved, Yuan Shu's ambition remained the same, and their guesses were self-defeating.

"Don't worry, my lord! The subordinates will definitely arrange it properly."

Suddenly, Yuan Shu said, "The climate in the south is hot and the rainy season is long. Both wells and rivers need to be repaired, otherwise disasters will definitely cause heavy losses."

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shu's eyes flashed brightly.He remembered that there had been large-scale droughts and floods in Jiangdong, Jingzhou and even Jiaozhou in history, and the disasters were quite serious. He couldn't remember exactly when.But it's always right to take precautions before they happen.

Gu Yong didn't have any doubts. Although the weather in the south has been smooth these years, there are unpredictable things. Who knows what will happen in the future. If you make more preparations, you can avoid suffering in the future.

Then, the two discussed other things.

As it was getting late, Gu Yong got up to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Gu Yong said cryptically: "My lord has rested for many days, it's time to come out to watch things."

Yuan Shu was stunned, and said, "All important military and political affairs have been assigned, and you can handle them yourself. Is there any important matter that cannot be decided?"

Gu Yong waved his hands again and again, and said anxiously: "This subordinate doesn't mean that!"

Taking a cautious look at Yuan Shu, he said in a low voice, "It's just that my lord is obsessed with it all day...it seems..."

Yuan Shu smiled slightly, he finally understood the purpose of Gu Yong's visit today.

"Yuan Tan! If my descendant is incompetent, how will you deal with yourself?" Yuan Shu asked.

"Ah?" Gu Yong looked at Yuan Shu in surprise, feeling a little dazed in his heart, not knowing why he suddenly asked this question.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Yong said: "My lord is wise and powerful, and my descendants should..."

Yuan Shu waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said meaningfully: "The late emperor was indeed wise and powerful, and he inherited the talents of Gao Zu and Emperor Wu."

Gu Yong was speechless, even an idiot could hear Yuan Shu's irony. Emperor Ling inherited the talents of Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Wu?If so, where did the Yellow Turban come from?Where did the rebellion in Xiliang and Youzhou come from?

"Hehe!" Yuan Shu patted Gu Yong's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Tell my words to everyone."

After finishing speaking, Yuan Shu strode out. When Gu Yong came back to his senses, Yuan Shu had already gone far away.

Looking at Yuan Shu's back from a distance, Gu Yong's face was uncertain.

After a long time, Gu Yong let out a long sigh, got up and left.
