After the Immortal Disappeared

Chapter 1056 I Finally Have Money

How could He Lingchuan not be filled with sorrow for the death of such a figure that even He Chunhua admired?

"The national destiny of the Yuan Kingdom has really come to an end." More than half a year ago, he obtained a large loan from Rongshan for the Yuan Kingdom and the Yuan Kingdom's army, which was waiting for food, and all the food and salary were paid. It stands to reason that if you have food in your belly and safe hands, you will not lose so quickly and miserably!

"How did the final battle end?"

The Li brothers shook their heads: "We are not on the front line, so we don't know for sure, but I heard that the northern front actually fought a few victorious battles, and then we pursued the victory, but for some reason we were defeated by Da Sima, and many people died."

He Lingchuan was puzzled: "I have seen General Zhao Pan's attack and planning. He is quite steady. How could he slip into the enemy's trap?"

Zhao Pan has always been famous for his defense.

Not to mention an experienced veteran like Ke Jihai, who had fought so many times with Da Sima in the past year, why was he suddenly defeated?

The disciples of Songyang Mansion looked at each other and had no answer.

"and after?"

"Da Sima took advantage of the victory and went south, advancing all the way to Shi Huan and the capital city." Li Mingrong said, "Then we received the order and went to sea without knowing what happened next."

He Lingchuan hesitated before asking: "So, where is General He Chunhua from Changning in the south?"

"Ah..." The Li brothers thought for a long time, "I didn't hear anything about him."

"Yes, it seems that it has always been in the south and hasn't moved anywhere."

Speaking of this, the Li brothers suddenly remembered that the owner of He Island was also named "He". Could it be that he had some connection with General Changning?

Of course, He Lingchuan didn't say anything, and they didn't ask, they just muttered to themselves.

In fact, in the past few months, He Lingchuan occasionally thought of He Chunhua's family.

He Chunhua returned without success for the second time in the Panlong Desert. He should have been punished by Nai Luotian, but his life should not be in danger. After all, no god would kill indiscriminately as a spokesman with soldiers and power like him.

So what does it mean that He Chunhua has been standing still and watching the northern frontline be defeated?

Is it to accumulate strength? After all, the experiences of generals Ke and Zhao have proven that the northern front line is like a gluttonous mouth. No matter how much gold, silver, food, wages, or lives are thrown in, it cannot be filled.

The He Chunhua he knew would not fill up the strength he had finally saved.

Now that the gate of the northern kingdom has been breached, the Great Sima marched straight in, his sword pointed at the Kite City.

What does an ambitious person like He Chunhua plan to do?

He Lingchuan let out a long sigh. The drama that will happen in the Kite Kingdom in the future must be like a horror story.

Perhaps it has happened now.

After all, during the two and a half months that the Songyang Mansion disciples were on the road, the war in Yuan Kingdom did not stop.

He Lingchuan had a hunch that the next news he received from the Kite Kingdom would definitely shock him!

At this moment, He Lingchuan remembered with embarrassment that he had not yet asked about the current situation of Songyang Mansion.

"The entire Yuan Kingdom is in panic, and the foundry business is deteriorating. It can't be done at all. The Marquis has no choice but to move the helm to the White Elephant Kingdom in Bejia." Li Mingrong said, "Actually, Songyang Mansion has been shrinking the Yuan Kingdom in the past few years. Domestic affairs are slowly shifting their focus to Bejia.”

"The Marquis has long disliked the Kite Kingdom, right?" Even He Lingchuan felt that it was difficult to find a way out for this country. Why didn't a shrewd businessman like Li Qingge know how to prepare for a rainy day and transfer industries?

The current situation in Yuan Kingdom can only show that her layout is correct and forward-looking.

Li Mingrong was silent, and then said: "In the past four years, the Marquis has donated materials to the Wang Ting several times, and the value has exceeded two million."

Unfortunately, this country is stuck in a quagmire, and it is impossible for an individual to pull it out.

Li Mingyang also said: "Fortunately, the Songyang Mansion is also an official businessman of Bejia, and the funds and connections are all abroad, otherwise it would have been taken over and confiscated by the Royal Court of Yuan."

He Lingchuan recalled that he had gone to Yuandu as the special envoy of Rongshan and had seen the eating habits of officials at all levels in Yuanting. He had to admit that Li Mingyang's worries were not groundless. The hungry and red-eyed Yuanting was indeed capable of such a thing.

"Forget it, those are all old affairs and have nothing to do with us anymore!" He sighed in his heart and raised his glass to toast, "Come, I wish Songyang Mansion will flourish and grow in this new land!"

Everyone paid homage and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking, everyone in Songyang Mansion went back to their guest rooms to rest. They have come a long way, are tired from traveling, and need to wash away the dust and recuperate.

However, Li Mingrong came to He Lingchuan privately and whispered: "The master of the palace has a few things and asked me to secretly transfer them to the island master."

"Secretly" means avoiding other people, even other members of the Songyang Mansion cannot know.

Then, he took off a ring on his left hand and solemnly presented it to He Lingchuan.

This is just a silver ring, the color is a bit dull, and the style is very simple, just a small silver circle without any chiseling. But He Lingchuan took it in his hand, probed into his spiritual thoughts, and his face was suddenly moved:

"This, this is too expensive!"

There are a dozen banknotes in the storage ring, neatly stacked, and the face value of the top one is one hundred thousand taels!

In addition, there were more than ten magic weapons in the storage ring. He Lingchuan caught a glimpse of another small pile of ore before he took it out to take a closer look.

He didn't recognize most of the ores, except for gold.

When the great craftsman Li Fubo repaired Fu Sheng, one of the necessary materials was tungsten metal.

Just one piece, cost price is 120,000 taels!

Now there is also a large piece of tungsten gold lying in this storage ring.

Li Mingrong whispered: "There are one million taels of silver notes here, twelve self-cast high-quality magic tools collected by Songyang Mansion over the years, each of which can be sold for at least 100,000 taels, and various rare minerals and materials. The total price is estimated to be more than three million taels."

"What does the Lord mean?" Li Qingge was also careless. If the Li Mingrong brothers capsized at sea, all the treasures in the ring would be lost.

"The Lord said that it takes capital to settle down. Everything is difficult at the beginning. She hopes that this money can help you."

"This is a timely help!" He Lingchuan sighed, "How can I accept it for nothing?"

He was short of money, so much that his pockets were jingling. Yangshan Islands could not be self-sufficient, and Yu Zecheng's ransom was only half paid. All expenses were basically paid by him alone.

At this moment, Li Qingge sent timely rain!

Three million, even for Songyang Mansion, it was a huge fortune.

The fact that Li Qingge sent not all silver bills meant that the money was hastily collected.

"This money is not given to you for nothing." Li Mingrong smiled, "It should be counted as Songyang Prefecture's investment in Yangshan Islands and included in the shares. This is a debt-to-equity swap, and you must pay dividends on time!"

"It should be so." Even if Li Qingge didn't mention it, He Lingchuan planned to do so.

"In addition, Songyang Prefecture will have priority and discount rights when mining mines and purchasing real estate and shops in your territory in the future." After all, Songyang Prefecture came to a foreign land to open a branch, with the purpose of expanding influence and making money, not just doing charity.

"It's a small matter." He Lingchuan agreed immediately, and drew a big and round cake for her.

The owner of Songyang Prefecture is really a wonderful person. Other women repay their gratitude by giving themselves, but she likes to invest heavily in her lifesaver.

She is really an angel investor.

He Lingchuan's heart is as clear as a mirror, knowing that this is the good cause he planted in Lingxu City, and now it has finally borne good fruit.

If he had refused to help Li Qingge because of his own troubles, how could he have helped her now?

Passing by the sparsely populated seaside, he couldn't help but laugh out loud facing the sea, startling a flock of gulls and herons.

I'm rich, I'm finally rich!

...

The next day, He Lingchuan summoned Ding Zuodong and other subordinates and announced directly: "The full development of Yangshan Islands will be fully launched from now on!"

Due to funding and manpower, only fourteen islands were developed in the early stage of Yangshan Islands, and only one-fifth of Longji Island was developed. "Ah?" Everyone was stunned until He Lingchuan slapped the silver note on the table.

A silver note worth one million taels, white!

"Ah-! Yes!" Everyone's eyes lit up.

If the money is in place, then everything will be easy. Ding Zuodong and Guan Ke were secretly surprised. They didn't know where the island owner got these hundreds of thousands or millions of silver from, except for squeezing Yu Zecheng from Beijia.

Although Yu Zecheng rented a villa on Sodin Island for a long time, it takes time to raise money. So far, he has only taken out less than 300,000 yuan.

It is clear that the boss was still frowning and struggling for money some time ago.

Whether it is stolen, robbed, or borrowed, money is money, and spending money will produce results.

"How much effort did it take to recruit so many laborers in the past? It's a pity to let them go at the end of the palm harvest season." Ding Zuodong didn't want to smile, but he couldn't help it, "Since we have sufficient funds now, it's just right for them to turn to the full development of the archipelago."

During the palm harvest season, the peak number of laborers in Yangshan Islands was nearly 13,000. As the commodity purchasing ships left Blade Port and Yangshan Islands, the number of people on the archipelago fell back.

Most of the laborers are short-term workers. After the work is done, the boss will not pay them, so they will naturally leave. If Yangshan Islands opens a new project, they will stay if they have money and food, and the progress of the project on the island can be greatly accelerated.

Winter is the slack season for farming, and labor is cheaper than spring and summer.

Qiu Hu activated the formation and called up the sand tables of each island.

"The overall design of Soding Island has been completed, and the next step is to follow the plan." Fang Canran had made a plan for Soding Island before leaving. How to implement it was He Lingchuan's business. "The shops and inns in the middle, the houses and temples on the beach must be built to prepare for investment; the landscape around Ding Lake is too shabby and simply hinders the appearance. All redone!"

"The residential area planned for Heiye Island is too small. It must be expanded at least twice, and there must be enough open space on the side for the market. Now the spontaneous market on Heiye Island has begun to take shape. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, residents on the surrounding islands go to the market, so the dock must be rebuilt and the road must be widened and leveled."

"Roads must be built on all islands that can be visited, especially on farming islands. The roads must be widened and straightened to facilitate transportation."
