Zuo Xiang'an Changqing was born in a poor family. He served in the court for more than 30 years and climbed up step by step from the bottom. Poor students all over the world regard him as a role model.

The Right Prime Minister Shi Qian was born into a noble family, that is, the descendant of ministers who made great contributions at the beginning of the dynasty. He was a representative figure of the noble faction.

The two men have always had different political views. As their sons, they naturally have little intersection. And from what Zhao Zecheng knows, the personalities of the two men are completely different, but they are so harmonious in front of Ling Chuan.

If Zhao Zecheng hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.

So who is Ling Chuan?

Zhao Zecheng hesitated for a long time, and finally gave up the idea of ​​going to test Lingchuan and went back home.

Zhao Youtang was feeling depressed at home. He had finally made the decision to start a career, but his father was suspicious and asked him to think about it again.

Although he understood what his father said, he was still a little emotional. Just as he was walking back and forth in the yard, feeling anxious, Earl Yongning came back.

Zhao Zecheng glanced at his son and sighed slightly: "Come with me to the study."

After entering the study, Zhao Youtang was about to sit down, but Zhao Zecheng scolded him, "Stand still."

Zhao Youtang was suddenly startled and began to panic.

"Look at you. You are already in your twenties, but you are not cunning at all. Everything you think is reflected on your face. With a person like this, how can your father trust you to be on your own?"

Although Zhao Youtang was not very cunning, he was not stupid. When he heard his father's words, he immediately showed joy on his face: "Father, do you agree that I can go into business?"

Zhao Zecheng nodded: "I agree, but I have a few requests."

Zhao Youtang was overjoyed: "Father, please speak."

"First, you should only say three-tenths of what you want to say to others, and not reveal your whole heart. Do you understand?"

"I understand, my son, read more and learn more, and talk less."

Zhao Zecheng nodded and said, "Secondly, Ling Chuan's background may be unusual. You should be more careful. Don't make decisions lightly. Come back and discuss with your father as much as possible."

"Yes, son, I understand."

"Third, I saw An Jie and Shi Xing at the entrance of Yunfuji today. They were having a good chat with Lingchuan. My son, you must know that making money from business is secondary. Building personal connections is the most important thing."

Zhao Youtang widened his eyes and complained, "Dad, if you hadn't stopped me today, I would have been among those who had a great time chatting with them."

Zhao Zecheng glared at him and said, "Fourth, stop talking nonsense."

Zhao Youtang stuck out his tongue and agreed.

On the other hand, after the two prime ministers An and Shi returned home, they each asked their sons about what happened today. When they heard that the other party also sent his son to make friends with Lingchuan, they secretly cursed him as an old fox in their hearts.

His Majesty said that he could not afford to lose face with that person, and the same was true for the two prime ministers, so they both sent their sons to go. They are all young and it would be easier to deal with them.

Ling Chuan felt that today was a bit confusing and could only wait for Cao Huanchun to come back and ask.

Although Cao Huanchun didn't know the inside story, he guessed that the two prime ministers must have obtained some information from the emperor, but he could only play dumb about this matter.

"By the way, Xu Ping's matter has been settled, but the wild temple is really remote, and we don't know when those arrangements will be discovered."

"So fast?"

The topic was immediately diverted by Cao Huanchun. Ling Chuan thought for a moment and said, "It would be better to let many people know about this matter at the same time. That way, even if the Xu family has great abilities, they won't be able to overturn the case."

Cao Huanchun nodded repeatedly: "You are right, but how can we let many people know about this?"

Ling Chuan suddenly thought of Shi Xing who came today: "Tell me, if I ask the commander of the Central City Army to go hunting in that place, will this method work?"

Cao Huanchun shook his head and said, "This is too deliberate, and it also involves you, which is easy to arouse suspicion."

Ling Chuan waved his hand and said, "Then what do you say we should do?"

Cao Huanchun thought for a moment and said, "Speaking of which, that place is not far from the imperial mausoleum. It is only separated by a mountain. If the emperor were to visit the mausoleum..."

"No, no, it's only June. Who would worship their ancestors at this time?"

"What if the emperor goes hunting in the royal gardens?" Cao Huanchun said, "The royal gardens are to the north of Shenlie Mountain, and the hilltop where the wild temple is located is not far from the gardens. The Imperial Guards will clear the area before hunting, so it is not impossible for them to search there by then."

Ling Chuan rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I'll leave this to you. Go and advise the Emperor to go hunting in the royal gardens in the next few days. After the hunt, bring the prey to worship the ancestors and destroy the wild temple along the way."

Cao Huanchun could hear the sarcasm in Ling Chuan's words, but he felt that the excuse seemed reasonable.

"Then let me think about it."

Ling Chuan snorted, "Then you have to hurry up. It's already June. If you delay for a few more days, the body will rot. How can you tell if it's Xu Ping or not?"

Early the next morning, Lingchuan drove another truckload of sugar to Guangfenghao. Yesterday, Liu Quan sent someone to say that the sugar was almost sold out, and asked Lingchuan if he could replenish some stock.

Ling Chuan was very surprised. It had been less than ten days since he had supplied Guangfenghao with 300 kilograms of sugar, and it was almost sold out?

However, Lingchuan had stored a lot of goods during this period, so he directly loaded 500 kilograms and sent it over. By the way, he also wanted to ask whether Dongfu Ji had bought sugar from him.

When Liu Quan saw Ling Chuan, he was as enthusiastic as ever, pouring tea and serving water. Ling Chuan also exchanged a few polite words with him before getting down to business.

"Manager Liu, it seems that the sugar business is booming. Judging from this, it should be no problem for Manager Liu to sell 2,000 kilograms of sugar a month."

Liu Quan smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Master Ling. The white sugar is in short supply. Excuse me, Master Ling's white sugar is not out of stock, right?"

Ling Chuan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Manager Liu, I have as much as you want."

Liu Quanxin wondered how much inventory Lingchuan had, so he asked tentatively: "What about the next batch of goods..."

Ling Chuan said, "The next batch of goods will probably take ten days or half a month, but don't worry, Shopkeeper Liu, it will definitely arrive before the end of the month. I wonder if one thousand kilograms will be enough?"

Liu Quan remembered the prince's instructions: "If it's the end of the month, one thousand kilograms may not be enough. Master Ling also knows that our Guangfeng has more than ten branches in other places. One thousand kilograms may seem like a lot, but each branch will not get much."

Hearing Liu Quan's loud tone, Ling Chuan's mind became active. It seemed that the work on the workshop had to be accelerated.

"Manager Liu, let's put it this way. I guarantee you 1,500 kilograms by the end of the month. Next month, I'll give you 3,000 kilograms."

After hearing what Ling Chuan said, Liu Quan was more certain that Ling Chuan's goods were shipped from other places, so he said, "Three thousand kilograms a month is probably still a little too little."

Ling Chuan was stunned: "Three thousand jin is not enough, then how much does Manager Liu want?"
