The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

"What do you think, Master Ban?"

The current situation faced by the Song Dynasty is that it is really impossible to withdraw troops to Hexi County, but it cannot just watch Hexi County being taken away by the Niaoyuan tribe.

"As far as I know, there are not only the Duoyi tribe or the Niaoyuan tribe in the entire Saibei Desert. There are many tribes in the vast Saibei Desert. I don't believe that all of them want to fight to the death with the Great Song Dynasty. After I go to the Saibei Desert, I will find a way to recruit some of the tribes, appease them, and make them vassals of my Great Song Dynasty."

"In the Saibei Desert, we will use the living resources of our Great Song Dynasty to gain the support of enough tribes in the Saibei Desert. Then we can unite the power of the tribes and destroy the few tribes that don't obey us. Then the Saibei Desert will be a subsidiary territory of our Great Song Dynasty."

Although Ban Chao looks very young, he always has an indescribable charm that makes people want to talk to him more.

His idea was indeed very good. He obviously wanted to use the tribes in the northern desert to completely resolve the problem by resolving the disputes between tribes.

"What conditions does Mr. Ban require?"

Ye Feng looked at Ban Chao. As long as there was no need to mobilize soldiers, he would find a way to satisfy the other party.

"Your Excellency, the natives of the Saibei Desert tribe all love to drink, but the geographical environment of the Saibei Desert is harsh and the temperature is too high, which is not suitable for brewing wine."

"My request is to ask the Ministry of Revenue to allocate some money to provide me with enough wine and drinks."

Ban Chao looked at Hai Ming who was not far away. He had heard about Hai Ming's stinginess, so he simply wanted to find Ye Feng to solve the problem directly.

"I don't think it's a big deal. Just go to the northern desert and someone will give you as much wine as you want."

Ye Feng did not hesitate at all. The quantity of wine brewed by Shen San's secret chamber was increasing. When the time came, it would be much more convenient for him to provide it to Ban Chao, saving a lot of manual transportation costs.

"In that case, I would like to thank you, Lord Zhenguo. I will definitely live up to your trust." Ban Chao bowed and retreated to his seat.

……

noon.

Ye Feng walked on the streets of Jinling City. People were coming and going in an endless stream, and the streets were bustling with noise. It seemed much more lively than when he came to Jinling City before.

Lao Huang and Dashan followed Ye Feng, and soon the three of them came to a shop. The shop was three stories high, with a plaque hanging in front - Secret Pavilion!

Outside the secret chamber, there are many people gathered. They are all people who come to the secret chamber to buy "soap" and "perfumed soap". They are sold in limited quantities every day.

Seeing the long queue, Ye Feng couldn't help but nod his head. He had to sigh at Shen San's business acumen, which was really amazing. It was a typical example of "hunger marketing".

The first floor of the secret chamber mainly sells the most common goods, such as wines produced by the secret chamber, and various daily necessities.

"Three gentlemen, what would you like to buy? I'll introduce it to you." A waiter immediately came forward with a smile on his face.

"We don't want to buy anything. We want to find your shopkeeper. I wonder if he is here?" Ye Feng came to the secret chamber to find Shen San.

"Looking for our boss? Do you have an appointment? Our boss is a very busy man." The waiter didn't know the identities of Ye Feng and others, and asked while looking at the three of them.

"Go and tell your shopkeeper. He will definitely see me."

Ye Feng looked calm and confident.

The waiter frowned slightly, but he did not dare to neglect him. Ye Feng in front of him looked handsome and extraordinary. "You wait here, I will go and report."

Shen San followed the waiter down from the third floor of the secret chamber. When he saw Ye Feng standing below, he rushed forward and said, "Next time you see this gentleman, treat him as a VIP of the highest standard and do not neglect him."

"Ah! As you wish!"

The waiter was stunned and secretly thanked his luck that he did not look down on others, otherwise he would be in trouble.

"Mr. Ye, please go upstairs!"

Shen San originally wanted to call Ye Feng "Master", but he knew very well that the other party did not want to reveal his identity, so he called Ye Feng "Young Master Ye" and made a gesture of invitation.

"Take them both to the VIP area for some tea and cakes. I want to discuss something with this young master." Shen San knew Ye Feng's character very well. He would never come to see him for no reason, so Shen San did not dare to neglect him.

"Master, please take a seat." Shen San brought Ye Feng into the room, invited Ye Feng to sit in the main seat, and asked, "Master, what important matter has brought you to the secret chamber?"

"I came to you for two things. First, you know that the treasury of the Song Dynasty is very poor. The three northern counties are flooded, and Li Bing and his son are building ditches there. They still need several million taels of silver. I wonder if the Secret Chamber can withdraw that much now?"

"The second thing is that there are many tribes in the Saibei Desert. Recently, a tribe called Niaoyuan appeared and invaded Hexi County. The Minister of Rites Ban Chao volunteered to go to the Saibei Desert to solve the problem, but he needs some wine. You should find a way to send some wine to him when the time comes."

Ye Feng didn't say anything more to Shen San and went straight to the point.

"I thought it was nothing. Money and alcohol are just minor matters."

When Shen San heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

"Oh?"

Ye Feng was a little surprised. Millions of taels of silver were not a small sum. Shen San walked to a place not far away, opened a secret compartment, took out a thick account book, and handed it to Ye Feng: "Master, since you made soap and perfumed soap, in just half a month, the secret chamber in Jinling City alone has earned more than two million taels of silver. Not to mention the entire Great Song Dynasty, there are secret chambers in 17 counties."

"Uh……"

Ye Feng didn't expect that just a simple piece of "soap" and "soap" could have such a huge profit, which was beyond his expectations.

"In that case, I won't stay any longer. You can arrange everything when the time comes." Ye Feng stood up and went to the first floor of the secret chamber.

When Dashan and Lao Huang saw Ye Feng coming to the first floor, they quickly came over and the three of them walked out of the secret chamber.

……

Xijiang County.

"Sir Li, the workers have only had porridge for three days. If the court does not send money, the canal will not be able to continue."

A supervisor of the migrant workers came forward, looking anxious.

They are all people from the three northern counties. Seeing the canals being built, they are full of expectations that the three northern counties will never suffer from floods again.

Many of the migrant workers worked for free and did not receive any wages from the court. They worked day and night to clear the ditches in the Xijiang Mountains.
