(I'm not feeling well this month, and I'm sorry for being in the hospital more than at home, 55!)

Qingzhou is the fiefdom of the vassal kings, with a geographical northwest geography and one of the nine provinces. In fact, it is together with Yuzhou and Jizhou, and is almost considered a country in the country. It is not that they have troops to establish themselves, but that the taxes and government establishments of the fiefdoms are basically decided by the vassal kings, and they only symbolically pay tribute to the court every year.

The vassal kings had great autonomy. What is rare is that the inheritance of several generations of vassal kings was considered loyal to the court and had no different intentions. When the court was killed, they also sent troops to help. However, with the destruction of Li Hengwei's entire army, the situation became subtle, and the people's hearts gradually changed with the situation.

The Meng family chose to migrate to Qingzhou, one because it was close; the other was that it was believed that the King of Yan in Qingzhou was easy to deal with.

Now, Chen Sanlang met and asked about the situation of the Meng family in Qingzhou, and Meng Qingyan looked bitter, which seemed intriguing, at least it showed clues: it seemed that the Meng family was not doing that well in Qingzhou!

Lu Jing next to him observed the colors and felt a stern: He thought the Meng family was homesick, so he thought about returning to Yongzhou, but it seemed that it was not the case. Could it be that the Meng family encountered difficulties in Qingzhou?

Think about it, it feels very likely.

The situation is different, the world is turbulent and the order collapses. Under such circumstances, the power of money begins to weaken, and the truth is that the hard fist is the truth. The Meng family has been operating for generations and is good at business, and has accumulated countless wealth, but these have become the root of disaster when troubled times come.

Because the Meng family itself did not have enough power to protect these wealth, when they arrived in Qingzhou, who knew whether the King of Yan would covetously annex?

Meng Qingyan looked at Chen Sanlang with a hesitant expression.

Chen Sanlang said: "Butler Meng, in fact, Qingzhou is not far from Yongzhou, and a lot of news can be easily conveyed. But don't worry, I welcome the Meng family back no matter what."

Meng Qingyan sighed: "I have heard that Chen Zhuangyuan Renyi has long been thanked."

As he said that, it was a big gift.

Before facing Chen Sanlang, he had thought of many ways of facing him, and was unwilling to expose his fragility too early to avoid losing the initiative in negotiations. But as Chen Sanlang said, many things cannot be hidden, and even if they can be hidden for a while, it will be useless. When he decides to move back, it will be the meat on the chopping board - if Chen Sanlang is destined to be another butcher knife. Since this is the case, it is better to go straight to the point and show it out of the cunning world, and it is easier to talk about:

"Mr. Chen, it's true that when he first entered Qingzhou, everything was fine. It was just that winter came. As the emperor passed away, the new emperor took office...it was a little different."

Chen Sanlang raised his eyebrows: "Have you ever seen the King of Yan?"

"I saw it twice when I followed the head of the family."

"As far as you see, how about the King of Yan?"

Meng Qingyan looked upset and thought for a while, and said, "I dare not argue with such words?"

After all, he was just a commoner, and his comments on the King of Yan were a great sin.

Chen Sanlang didn't force him, and said to himself: "The world is in chaos. Although Qingzhou is located in a corner and is not affected by war, the King of Yan must be worried and will prepare for the future. Butler Meng, you said that's not the case."

Meng Qingyan nodded and said, "It's true."

The so-called preparation is nothing more than military armor and military supplies. These are all money, but where does the money come from? The vassal kings have a land of a state, and the country has many resources and great harvests. However, the consumption is not low. The vassal kings have huge royal family, and their descendants are a little extravagant, and the silver is like flowing water. As for the governance, if they encounter any disasters and disasters, there will be more places to use money.

To some extent, the land of a state is similar to the land of a country. The treasury is often scarce and deficit, let alone the state treasury?

If the world is peaceful and the fiefs of the vassal kings are stable and pacified, there will be no big problem, but now there is a turmoil and a big fight will be different.

War is always a bottomless pit that consumes resources. Once a war begins, it means continuous consumption. The warring sides, the side that is not prepared enough, is destined to be a loser.

Although the three vassal kings did not have much ambition, it was an extraordinary period. Even if they did not have the will to fight, they had to keep the fiefdom.

As a result, a large number of troops were mobilized and batches of resources began to be transported in a concentrated manner. When the cost was tight and the money was not enough, the best strategy was to increase taxes and formulate some targeted new policies.

The King of Yan turned his attention to the migrated Meng family. The Meng family was rich and everyone in the world knew that since they had it, they should donate it and go to difficulties together.

In the past month, in order to buy peace, the Meng family has donated more than one million yuan in silver, and there are also many materials, including rice, grain, cloth, etc.

Even if the Meng family is rich in the world, it will be unbearable to do this way.

At this stage, the King of Yan is still quite friendly, but no matter how friendly you are, you can also suck bones and marrow? When all the assets of the Meng family are absorbed, it is impossible to be a rich man.

Seeing this, the head of the Meng family quickly sought a countermeasure and found a way out. There was no need to think about the fiefs of the three major vassal kings. Being cheated by King Yan once was equivalent to being bitten by a snake. It was impossible for King Zhao and King Jin to go there again. Looking at the world, after all, I felt that the world was so big that there was no place to live.

It is impossible to go to Manzhou, Yangzhou, Zhongzhou, Mingzhou, Liangzhou... it is difficult to rely on. In the end, there is a place left in Yongzhou, and information is just transmitted back, saying that Yongzhou has been decided.

When the head of the Meng family heard this news, he was excited and asked carefully about Chen Sanlang's situation, so he wanted to go back to Yongzhou. First, it was the ancestral land, and everyone in the family hoped to return home; second, the head of the Meng family keenly felt that there were many benefits to join Chen Sanlang. The most fundamental one was that Yongzhou, which was in ruins, needed the Meng family, which was completely different from the King of Yan.

If necessary, there will be a place to use it.

However, the family is big and the business is big, so it is not easy to move once. We must not only clarify Chen Sanlang's attitude, but also escape from the control of King Yan...

This is the mission of Meng Qingyan to return to Yongzhou first.

Meng Qingyan traveled around the world, was good at treating people and was very good at dealing with things, but when facing the young Chen Sanlang, he felt that he was seen through and had nowhere to hide. Every time Chen Sanlang asked, he always asked the key points, which made Meng Qingyan's words that had been prepared for a long time useless.

Chen Sanlang did things in a person and did not like to hide things. Since the Meng family was coming back, and he also had to rely on the other party, it would be better to go straight to the point and spread the conditions directly. Anyway, Yongzhou is now in employment, and the most unnecessary thing is the position. After a pause, he immediately said: "Butler Meng, I am about to build a commercial house, which is specifically responsible for business transactions, transactions and acquisitions. If the Meng family can come back, this position will be yours."

“Commercial room?”

Meng Qingyan was stunned when he heard this. What is this?
