0342 Military Office
In the warm pavilion of the "Military Office", the two-foot-high copper stove is burning with red charcoal, and the whole room is warm and melting, and a slight fragrance fills the room.
Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran held a finely carved small copper hand stove and sat quietly on the side of the thin rattan chair to listen to the discussion of Yang Shu and Zhu Luo, Yuyu, Gu Xiaodao, Sha Li and other cabinet ministers. She did not say anything. She only held a small copper hook in her hand to turn the charcoal ash in the stove, which was lazy and comfortable.
"Today's briefing is roughly like this. The big brother on the East Road, Anxi's tear department marched into the speed and has taken over the battle with the 'Tianlei tribe'. The Yueling Priestess contacted the 'Elves Department' for the time being and has not returned; An Jin, the second brother of the South Road, took a long-distance trip to attack the 'Beizke' camp outside the 'Duke of Slin', facing the bad weather. The double obstacles of Qi and strange terrain, the pressure can be said to be small; the current soldiers on the North Road are divided into two places, and the fourth brother An Zixuan's main force besieged and attacked the 'Bei Rong Department', and he has been with the King of Beirong, who is leaning on the high mountain, for more than a month. The other Thunder Black Department's troops 'killing Mapo' to contain 100,000 Qiang soldiers in the Qiang Department. The situation in both places are not optimistic; the situation is not optimistic; the third brother of the South Road An Yaoyi's department has been able to provide disaster relief, and there are many people attached to Mengjin, Qingyuan, Helian and other departments. The only thing to worry about is the unclear intention of the '18 Caves of Miao Wu', which has not expressed its position so far. His Majesty mentioned that the army on the middle road has also been blocked, and he heard that he has also built a good marriage for the fifth master. Marshal Yang Shu, the military minister sitting on the red sandalwood fairy chair, said in a loud voice.
"The fifth master is kind-hearted and a blessed man. He can't make a mistake if any girl marries him." The jokes of the fish girl in a good mood caused a burst of laughter from her colleagues.
"The Western Expedition is related to the overall situation of the empire, which cannot be ignored! Although the 'Bhaoyue Alliance' is no longer threatened, it should not be taken lightly. The hundred-footed worm is still dead and not stiff, not to mention that the strength of the 'Great Duke of Slin' has not been damaged, but it cannot be careless! Slin has never been sincerely attached for a day, so he can't say that the overall situation will be determined for a day. Prime Minister Vishamon said in a serious tone.
"Well," Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran nodded and thanked her, "What the teacher said is that the students have been taught!"
Prime Minister Vishamon shook his hand and said, "The eldest princess praises me, and I dare not be an old minister."
"Speaking of war, it is nothing more than the word 'money'. To put it bluntly, it is to fight for financial resources. Whoever has money can survive to the end. A few days ago, I think it's good for the 'Liangcheng Inn' chain store planning folds proposed by Mr. Gu Erzi. Our flagship store opened first in 'Wolf', and there is such a collection of wine and sex. The place where wealth is integrated must be popular far and near. Officials and gentlemen of the mainland countries are crazy about it. On the one hand, they can raise military funds for the empire, and more importantly, it is convenient to collect and spy on the intelligence data of all forces, killing two birds with one stone. The smiling minister of etiquette opened the topic.
Gu Xiaodao, Minister of Civil Affairs, smiled and said, "With the empire's huge human, financial and material resources, it won't take long for our 'Liangcheng Inn' chain stores to open all over the mainland, east to Shura, West to Haoyue, south to the vicissitudes, north and camels, and even the Central Plains Kyushu. At that time, the wealth will roll in, I You can't even send it without sending it!"
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
"Planning is feasible. The father also made Lord Sari and the Little Seventeenth jin Love Princess try it out in the 'Huadu'. Although they were interfered by the Holy See and finally gave up halfway, but they really borrowed a lot during this period. Lord Shali now have important tasks and can't get rid of it. Little Seventeen jin Love Recently, the princess has been thinking about the matter of the 'book club', and she forced Princess 20 to be responsible for opening an inn. Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran smiled.
"However, the 'Wolf Capital' flagship store should not be located in the imperial capital. It is not far from the emperor, just choose a densely populated town with convenient transportation. Recently, some priests and students have often gathered to discuss national politics. There are many criticisms about His Majesty Wu's Western Expedition, which is roughly some 'great joys' and poor. Scholars' fallacies such as military martial arts, "consuming money and food" and ignoring people's livelihood are at the forefront of the storm here. We'd better not make the opening of an inn too public. Zhu Luo, Minister of the Legal Affairs, proposed
"What Lord Zhuluo said." Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran said: "The decoration of the flagship store must be luxurious and exquisite, and the whole defense and vigilance must be improved. The periphery should be built according to the standard of the most easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the rice grain warehouse and water should be fully equipped. Those who can come to us are not ordinary people, if they can't It's hard to make this business bigger!"
Gu Xiaodao, who is proficient in this, said in his chest: "Our 'Liangcheng Inn' is to eat, drink and play, have sex dogs and horses, gambling games, chicken fighting and running dogs, walking warblers, singing songs and listening to dramas and so on. There are all kinds of them; restaurants, brothel gambling houses, gold and silver jewelry, fashion clothing and so on, all of them. All the best! The servants have sent people to the 'City Defense Department' and the 'Taxation Bureau' to inform them. At that time, the 'Taxation Bureau' will send people to regularly check the accounts to collect commercial taxes and extract fat powder money. The 'City Defense Department' will often send troops to patrol to drive away some petty thieves, and the rest are at our own. There is no need to do anything, and the chief officials of each department can get dividends. How can they not be willing to do it?
"The inn chain can cooperate with Mr. Wen Si's 'dark part' secret espionage operation." Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran, who has been in power for a long time, has become more and more monarchous and said, "I have asked Princess Xiyan to choose hundreds of beautiful and smart-winged girls to send them to the imperial capital one after another, ready to be the facade of the inn. As for the bankers, stalls and dealer of the gambling house, the little twelve princesses also collected a lot of refined veterans in Shura, which can be put in place in a few days. As for the address, choose 'Beiliang Town', 50 miles north of the city.
"The scale of the town is a little small, but the servants immediately asked people to survey and expand it, which should not be a problem." Gu Xiaodao, the minister of civil affairs, said with great interest.
"Good! This is how it was settled. Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran turned her head and said, "Also, how is the progress of our 'book club' and 'recruitment hall'? This is a big deal that makes our empire gain both fame and fortune. It's sloppy."
The fish girl smiled and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, there are seventeen princesses staring at the job of this 'book club'. The first Wolf Empire War History has been printed. In addition, the Imperial Business Daily, the Imperial People's Daily, the Imperial Law Newspaper and other versions are also in the later survey, and will also be put into the production line in the future. "
Prime Minister of State Affairs, Prime Minister Vishamon, smiled and said, "The 'Recruitment Hall' of Shali Liwu is even more popular and colorful. There is an endless stream of monks, famous scholars, masters, practitioners, masters, mercenaries and other talents from all over the mainland, and their mothers are busy!" The praised person bowed and thanked him and said repeatedly, "I dare not be, I dare not be."
In the laughter of the cabinet ministers, Marshal Yang Shu suddenly mentioned and asked, "In recent cabinet military meetings, there has never been a shadow of Wen Fatty. Is it the Chamber of Commerce-" The words of the open-minded and bold military minister were stopped by a fish coughing slightly.
"There is Wenqi in the case of the Chamber of Commerce, which involves the family affairs of Tianyi's mother, which is a little tricky." Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran paused, smiled brightly and said, "Two distinguished and mysterious guests have recently come to the imperial capital. Mr. Wen Si is busy greeting them."
