I Built a Territory in Ancient Times - Chapter 157
, he was the most incapable of seeing Ming Ye’s contrived posture. On the bright side, he is modest and generous, and he is gentle and refined toward everyone, but he doesn’t know what a villain looks like behind his back. As the crown prince of a country, without the slightest killing decisiveness, is he worthy of that position?
It seems that he felt the gaze cast here, Ming Ye raised his head and looked over here, and when he saw the third child in front of Ming Yu, he couldn’t help frowning.
Seeing Ming Ye looking over, Ming Tao smiled provocatively, and then took his eyes back.
Ming Yu didn’t notice the turbulent undercurrent at this moment, he wiped his mouth, then picked up the wine glass, and said with a smile, “It should be the younger brother toasting the three emperors.”
They are not very close, what kind of wine did Mingtao come to find him for? Although he didn’t know the purpose of his visit for the time being, Ming Yu still drank the wine in his hand enthusiastically.
Ming Tao was still very happy about Ming Yu’s acquaintance, and he had no plans to leave immediately after drinking.
Ming Yu knew that it was not that simple for him to come to him, so he immediately asked, “Brother Sanhuang, what is the matter with Ming Yu?”
Mingtao nodded with a smile, and started talking: “Brother, there is one thing here, please ask the fourteenth brother to help, the fourteenth brother must not shirk?”
Ming Yu’s mind was spinning fast, but his mouth was not idle, he hit a haha, and said very boldly: “Brother Sanhuang, just listen to what you say, as long as the younger brother can do it, even if it is going up the mountain of swords and down the sea of fire, There is absolutely nothing, just wrap it around me.”
Mingtao laughed, “Where is the need to go up the mountain and go down to the sea of fire so serious, the third brother is just thinking about the watermelon in the hands of the fourteenth brother to see if we can share it?”
“Watermelon?” Ming Yu never expected Ming Tao to speak for this. I was still a little stunned for a while, not sure if I heard it wrong?
“Exactly, last year, the third brother was fortunate enough to receive the watermelon you brought to Beijing as a reward from the father, and your third sister-in-law has been thinking about it all the time, so…” Mingtao didn’t finish his words, but the meaning was very clear.
Ming Yu made a statement of guilt, “Oops! If I knew that the Sister-in-law of the Three Emperors liked it, Ming Yu should have sent it to the mansion earlier. When tomorrow morning, my brother will send some watermelons to the mansion.”
“Then I would like to thank the fourteenth brother.” Mingtao thanked him politely, then leaned into Ming Yu’s ear and said, “I don’t know when the caravan will be handed over? I’m all ready.”
This is his main purpose. These days, Mingyu hasn’t said a word, and he doesn’t know what Mingyu means, so he doesn’t take the opportunity to come and ask.
“Ah?” Ming Yu didn’t expect that he was sending money from Baba, and he didn’t respond for a while, “What are you ready?”
“The money you mentioned to be handed over to the caravan, I have already prepared the price you quoted. Is it possible that the fourteenth brother still wants to go back?”
Mingtao was a little anxious. He was afraid that Ming Yu would suddenly regret it, especially when he heard that Ming Yu went to the Prince’s Mansion a few days ago. He sent someone to inquire about it. Ming Yu told the prince about the caravan, but the prince seemed to disagree.
Come to think of it, how could the prince easily hand over the caravan? If Ming Yu changed his mind because of the prince’s resistance, wouldn’t he just be a basket case?
Originally, when he saw Ming Yu’s offer, he thought the price was too high. How much money would it cost to set up a caravan by himself? Ming Yu’s price was already more than ten times higher. Could it be that he was really taken advantage of?
He also thought about being able to sit down with Ming Yu to discuss the price, but after hearing the news, he couldn’t sit still. Don’t dare to delay any longer, and quickly raise enough money, hoping to settle things as soon as possible.
Ming Yu also clicked his tongue. Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, Ming Tao had already prepared the silver taels. Sure enough, someone who can compete with the prince has some ability.
But why did Mingtao rush so quickly, and even mention it on such an occasion? Could it be that he couldn’t even wait for this moment?
Ming Yu rubbed his chin and remained silent.
This attitude made Ming Tao even more anxious, “Fourteenth brother, it was agreed at the beginning, the price you said, third brother, is not much, since you have made a decision, you can’t listen to other people’s words. .”
This sentence made Ming Yu suddenly enlightened, and finally knew Ming Tao’s worries. He was secretly amusing in his heart, but he didn’t point it out, and said ambiguously, “Brother Three Emperors, my younger brother is also very embarrassed.”
Sure enough, there must be no good news for the prince. If it wasn’t for the prince’s resistance, how could Ming Yu be like this.
“Fourteenth brother, a gentleman can’t catch up with his words. I’ll give you half a percent of the price. This matter will never change. I will send someone to send it tomorrow, can I?” Mingtao gritted his teeth hard, he would never Allow any change in this matter.
Ming Yu’s heart blossomed with joy, but he had to forcibly hold it back, pretending to be frowning and sighing: “It’s okay, it’s okay, even if you face the censure of the prince’s elder brother, the younger brother will go ahead. Just follow what the three emperors said. .”
Unexpectedly, if I did nothing, I would get half of the silver taels in vain. The third brother really has a lot of money, and he didn’t hesitate to increase the price. His previous worries were purely superfluous. Well, learning from experience may be useful next time.
Seeing that he finally let go, Mingtao let go of half of his heart, afraid that he would regret it again, so he hurriedly drank a glass of wine and left. If you think about it, you still have to think about sending money to Ming Yu earlier, because there are many dreams in the night, and you have to settle things before you can rest assured.
Ming Yu was in a good mood, and he won a lot of money without any effort. It would be great if there were more such swindlers in the world.
Next, there was a request for Ming Yu’s watermelon, and Ming Yu agreed readily in a happy mood.
Prime Minister Wen is still a little incredible, how could Ming Yu’s temperament be so refreshing? He was thinking of getting a watermelon from Ming Yu, but Ming Yu waved his hand and promised to send one more.
In fact, he doesn’t need to open his mouth, the emperor will also give him a reward, but the reward is all the emperor’s kindness, which can only be used by himself, and must not be given to others.
He was thinking of asking for some from Ming Yu’s side, so that he could give it to his relatives and friends to try it out. Such rare things can also be given away.
“This thing is not very much grown in greenhouses. I can’t bring much back when I go to Beijing this time. It should be able to grow seedlings in a large area in the coming year. At that time, it will be arranged to be sold in Beijing, so that everyone can You can eat it all.”
This is Ming Yu’s plan for a long time. To generate income for the people of Liangzhou, at least let them be fed and clothed. To develop watermelon into the characteristics of Liangzhou, he believes that this thing will be very popular, and it will not take long to improve the situation of Liangcheng.
Watermelon and corn have only caused a sensation in the small circle of dignitaries in the imperial court, and most of the common people do not know about it.
However, the most amazing thing about the Emperor’s Qianqiu Banquet was the “Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers” presented by Ming Yu. You must know that many people who went to the palace to watch the ceremony witnessed this prosperous scene with their own eyes. It can be said to be an eye-opener, and it also makes everyone talk about it with relish. After tea, the people are talking about Duan Wang Mingyu, the magnificent scene of fireworks blooming on this day.
However, Ming Yu, who was at the center of public opinion, did not pay attention to these. In his opinion, the fireworks are just over, is it comparable to the next tender? The development of the Xiqi Corridor depends entirely on this tender.
Therefore, Ming Yu devoted all his body and mind to this, made full preparations, and waited for the bidding meeting ten days later.

127 Chapter 127
“Your Majesty, are you really not worried at all?” Prime Minister Wen didn’t even look at it, and casually placed the white stone in his hand on a corner of the chessboard.
The emperor held a black piece, chased the piece, and placed it next to each other. He shook his head and smiled and said, “What is there to worry about? Old Fourteen said he would solve it, so you should believe him.”
Wen Qing glanced at him, why did this sound wrong? It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Duan Wang, he was just a little worried. He came up with a bidding meeting, and someone really sent money up?
No one has ever seen this tender. It’s all a matter of Ming Yu’s imagination, and there is no charter. How can people not be worried.
If things don’t turn out as Ming Yu thought, what should Ming Yu do? Now those people in the capital are waiting to see his jokes.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the very calm emperor again. Wen Qing couldn’t help but feel a little depressed, he was really worried about eating radishes. His emperor’s father is not in a hurry, why is he anxious for others to follow?
“Don’t be impatient. In fact, speaking of it, the old fourteen seems to have no rules and regulations in his actions, but his heart is very open and he knows what he should do.”
It’s not that I didn’t worry about him before, but every time he can always use his own method to handle things perfectly. After all, if he grew up in the palace, if he was as reckless and self-willed as he appeared on the surface, how could he have survived to this day.
Although he is also protected by the emperor, just imagine that if a person does not act in a proper manner, the great grace of heaven will be exhausted. Don’t look at Ming Yu who is always in trouble, heartless and heartless, but he is just right, and no one can do anything about him.
Watching him grow up step by step, his old father is very gratified.
Wen Qing sighed and shook his head, concerned.
