Chapter 611

The only sucker left, and Da Wang waited all night for a second discerning buyer to no avail. Qiao Yi said this was opening shop to eat for three years, and conveniently his beast-pellet business wasn't doing well either, so he dragged and dragged, plus the two bottles of freshly refined top-grade Golden Wound Dan he just made, all given to Da Wang as a down payment for the bronze deng.

The two were quite familiar by now, had worked out a simple exchange agreement to get by with the manor, and as for the balance, he'd make it up after refining medicinal pills Da Wang could use, after all Da Wang's ritual vessels really weren't cheap.

"Top-grade Golden Wound Dan! Top-grade, if we took it back there wouldn't it resurrect flesh from white bone? Like if an arm was broken, eating it would make it grow back instantly—how terrifying would that be!" Da Wang thought about it and felt it was a bit over the top.

"Back there it wouldn't work, you guys lack Spirit Qi……feeling-wise it wouldn't be that extreme either. Although it's top-grade, after all it's just for treating external injuries, not some Foundation Establishment Dan or Nascent Soul Dan kind of high-end stuff. Top-grade you can break one into ten or more pieces, and then it wouldn't have that much potency, so in your place it'd probably still be invincible for treating external injuries."

Da Wang directly ignored the before and after, only hearing Nascent Soul Dan and Foundation Establishment Dan, "... Sounds really high-class! What is Nascent Soul Dan? What is Foundation Establishment Dan?"

"You shouldn't even think about that, I don't know. They're auxiliary tools used when cultivators advance in cultivation, we loose cultivators can only rely on grinding ourselves upward. These two are treasure pill formulas from the Dan Sect, and theoretically could be refined with spiritual materials, but I've never seen them in person to this day."

Da Wang heeded the advice, knowing that merely treating external injuries with top-grade Golden Wound Dan wasn't that heaven-defying, he happily stowed it in his warehouse. He decided to turn back and head to Youzhou to ask Zhang Shenyi how to grind medicine pellets, he wanted to grind these two bottles into twenty!

What he imagined was quite beautiful, but when he left the manor his heart was still pounding, like when he was young those were all reduced-efficacy versions, today these two bottles were truly top-grade pills of the cultivation world, wouldn't they need to make up for a spacetime price difference?

He bolted out in a little run, that blood-red warning text that would have stopped him didn't float out, Da Wang finally let his heart settle into his stomach.

Lying back in bed, thinking about today's income of twenty-nine ten-thousand, who could sleep? Converted to Silver that's nearly three million taels! Three million taels could let the Shao Fu make a pile of bronze vessels, filling the Jianzhang Palace to the brim!

Idly opening the balance to daydream a bit, he saw the display: Yuanbao 121300?

Good news, the huge debt is cleared!

Bad news, it was cleared by selling his own accession ritual vessels.

Da Wang recalculated the accounts for buying John Pu armor and weapons on credit, good fellow still had over three hundred left over! Note: three hundred Yuanbao, not three million.

……Right back to before liberation.

No matter what, at least being debt-free felt light. This guy lay sprawled on the bed in a big "X" shape, arrogantly beyond belief.

"Hahaha～This Emperor has turned over!"

In the room Bai Ze, Zhe Tian, and Rou all crawled up to watch the salted fish turn over.

Getting rich didn't delay Da Wang's scheming, the next morning at court he went up and just threw the mining account book in his hand onto the ground. "Is the Grand Minister of Agriculture under the impression that This Emperor can't read accounts, so he summarized some jokes and presented them?"

The Grand Minister of Agriculture's other boot finally landed, he knelt down honestly and properly. These days he'd also figured it out, quibbling was useless.

He still dared say this rotten account was born from Ning De Emperor's era of indulgence? Or was it saying Tai He Emperor also lacked the ability to pick it up, and thus the江山 was quickly lost?

This new emperor, before getting up today, had probably already figured out his fate, others couldn't easily shake it. If he could withdraw completely like Ming Tu Qian…also acceptable.

"Nobody's going to quibble a bit? Gold, silver, copper, iron handed in year after year decreasing, Grand Minister of Agriculture didn't think it abnormal? The numerous mines in the fiefdoms of the princes becoming private mines, This Emperor knows all about it, but the Court Affairs doesn't? This Emperor now asks one question: on this ledger, how many of these mines still belong to Chang'an?!"

The account book being messy and not matching is fine, but this prince occupying mines he truly didn't know about! The Grand Minister of Agriculture hastily spoke up to inquire.

"The Prince of Nan just has his own iron mine, otherwise you'd think all iron mines are in the Court Affairs' hands, what would he use to rebel? Stone tools?!"

Xie Yuan reminded Da Wang: "... The Prince of Nan hasn't rebelled yet." Also, you don't also have private mines? And you're shouting so loud.

Da Wang hummed: "Soon!"

Ministers: ……

Da Wang wanting to start a career was like thunder and wind sweeping, he immediately wanted to establish a temporary 'Supervision Group', to reorganize the mines of the Jin Dynasty. What should be organized will be organized, what should be killed will be killed.

So the question is, who's going to do this work!

"For this matter, the 'Envoy' handling it, do you all have any recommended candidates?"

The ministers began 'deeply pondering'. Everyone knows, at this sensitive moment, this envoy is a death sentence.

Even if you exclude the fiefdoms of all the rebel kings, moving the princes' mines means death anywhere isn't strange.

"Good, is there anyone volunteering? If not, This Emperor will appoint someone!" This time someone finally nominated.

One look and it was an honest person being pushed out to take the bullet, Da Wang still didn't want to use him. Without a flexible brain going out, it's either delivering dishes or dragging the rear leg.

He disdained and openly showed it, himself began sizing up the ministers in the hall. This person needs to be smooth, intelligent, and capable of handling affairs, Da Wang first looked toward the wall-head grass Gao Chang, giving Gao Chang a look that made his heart tremble with fear. Then he looked toward Shen Yu, Shen Yu was looked at once and fell silent for a moment, he realized.

He proactively came forward to request to share the Emperor's worries.

Da Wang nodded slightly, continued sizing up the crowd.

Gao Chang glanced at the situation, hurriedly also stepped forward.

He had a flowery mouth, and could also speak. "Your servant, taking the glory of the Gao clan, stands upon the court hall, previously always muddled and confused, useless to the state. Since Grand Marshal Gao departed, your servant often couldn't sleep at night, regretting deeply, feeling utmost pain. Until His Majesty came to Chang'an, your servant then came back to life, your servant again gained the opportunity to serve the Jin Dynasty with devotion and exhaustion. Again, kowtowing thanks to His Majesty!"

Ministers: ……You this flattery expert!

"Your servant wishes to be the envoy, patrol the realm's mines, and share the Emperor's worries!"

Da Wang nodded again, opening his mouth was poison: "Nowadays the world is unstable, the relationship between the princes' states and Court Affairs is also tense, if you go and never return, then This Emperor wouldn't he be ashamed before the Gao clan?"

"For His Majesty, for purifying the mines of corruption and concealment in the Jin Dynasty is a matter of great importance to the state, your servant fears nothing! If your servant on this mission does not return, it is your servant's fate, not His Majesty's loss. Only wish that successors continue your servant's legacy……"

Ministers: ……

Da Wang speechlessly interrupted him, "Alright, alright, the legacy is out. This Emperor lets you go, naturally will send people to protect you."

Gao Chang relaxed his breath, knelt down solidly in thanks, this matter was thus settled.

"However this matter isn't urgent, you first and the Grand Minister of Agriculture organize the mines within the borders, plan routes according to mine size and importance, then……set out in five days."

After thinking, Da Wang directly issued an edict: "Gao Chang as principal envoy, Liang He as deputy envoy, purify corruption and concealment in the Jin Dynasty's mines."

Immediately bestowed the tally, taking this tally means representing the Emperor in exercising authority.

"Representing This Emperor going out, don't lose This Emperor's face, kill if you should kill, cut if you should cut, new dynasty new atmosphere, the world should also know, This Emperor is not someone easily provoked."

Ministers: ……Numb.

Mines are money, money's affairs are major, Da Wang generously allowed Liang He to point out a thousand cavalry to accompany.

At this moment Gao Chang's heart blossomed with joy, a thousand Beijiang Xuanjia cavalry, safety truly guaranteed. He had never even thought until now, what marching speed the world-renowned Xuanjia cavalry would have when setting out.
