Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

No matter what era, there will always be some wealthy and powerful families.

They may have relied on luck and opportunity to reach the pinnacle of power, and since then have worked hard and prospered for generations.

What Qin Ming was facing were these wealthy and prestigious families with wealth accumulated over generations.

"Then... I can only help you hand the person over. I may not be able to get involved in other matters. You also know the current situation of our Beijing Chamber of Commerce, as well as my situation..."

As Jin Wansan spoke, he wanted to refuse.

He has not made any achievements now. If he listens to Qin Ming's advice, he will cause trouble.

I'm afraid that I will lose the position of President of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce that I have worked so hard to get back.

"That's the question. Do you want to take on the project of developing this section of the canal in the capital?"

Qin Ming had anticipated that Jin Wansan had recently surrendered, and it was impossible for him to disband all the Beijing Chamber of Commerce in one go.

So I prepared to come up with some substantial things, as a slap in the face and a sweet date.

"Really? How long?"

This news shocked Jin Wansan, who was still crying!

He suddenly jumped up from his seat, his eyes full of desire for money.

Everyone liked to do business with the court because it had always been trustworthy under the governance of Qin Ming and Chen Shimao.

Whether it is the speed of settling accounts, the various subsidies given to them, or the conveniences provided by officials at all levels working together, they can make it extremely easy for them to work for the court.

"It's hundreds of miles, but there's a time limit. Construction has started on multiple sections of the entire line, and it needs to be completed within a year."

"Of course, if there's a problem with the quality, everyone in the Capital Chamber of Commerce, including their entire family, will be held accountable."

Qin Ming planned to divide the entire river channel into several sections for construction.

This will allow it to penetrate as quickly as possible.

The demands and threats he made were like a bucket of cold water on the still excited Jin Wansan.

Qin Ming is the king of a country. If he says he will kill his entire family, he will really kill his entire family.

But driven by interests, Jin Wansan couldn't help himself.

"Okay, I promise."

"Okay, let's go."

Qin Ming waved his hand and asked him to leave first.

Wan Shu stayed in the hall and continued chatting with Qin Ming.

After Jin Wansan left, Wan Shu no longer pretended to meet the emperor.

The two were already very familiar with each other, and Guan Yue even suggested several times that Qin Ming take Wan Shu into the harem.

The two sisters have a good relationship, and this way they can have company.

However, Qin Ming has always been worried that Wan Shu's entry into the palace would affect the operation of the huge Lingnan Chamber of Commerce.

In addition, Wan Shu has been busy outside and has never expressed her feelings to Qin Ming.

This makes it so that when the two parties are alone together, there is always some inexplicable ambiguity between them.

There was no one around, so Wan Shu sat next to Qin Ming and poured herself a cup of tea. She also considerately brought the teapot to Qin Ming and leaned over to pour him a cup.

At this moment, the two of them moved closer.

Under the warm spring sun, a breeze blew through the hall, making Wan Shu's hair scatter like water, and a pleasant fragrance lingered at Qin Ming's nose.

"Your Majesty, is there anything you would like to ask me?"

Wan Shu pulled away, sat down and crossed her legs.

The little feet swayed, revealing a piece of snow-white skin on the ankles from time to time.

"Do you know anything about the major wealthy families in the northwest?"

Qin Ming withdrew his gaze and said seriously.

Wan Shu stretched out her delicate hand to gently stroke her hair, her mouth slightly opened, and she sighed:

"Yes, the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce often does business with them and has some contact with them. The other big families in the northwest may be affected by your resources and will not have much say, but there are two major families that are different."

"what is the difference?"

"The two major families are the Tang family and the Wan family. What makes them different is that they control a lot of production resources, such as land for growing cotton and mines containing various metals. They can do a lot of things."

"If people from the Xu and Wan families come here, they may not listen to your Majesty."

After learning about the situation, Qin Ming frowned slightly.

If the other party has some production materials, it would be unfriendly to him.

But he soon raised his head.

"Do you have any idea?"

"Who knows."

Wan Shu raised the corner of her mouth, and a meaningful smile appeared on her quiet little face.

Qin Ming moved closer to Wan Shu, looking at this little face that was no less pretty than Guan Yue's, and said helplessly:

"What can't be said about the relationship between you and me?"

"Your Majesty, my last name is Wan, and their last name is also Wan."

Wan Shu covered her mouth and chuckled.

"you……!"

Qin Ming was suddenly stunned.

"However, I am just a concubine of the family and have little relationship with them. But after following you in recent years, people from the Wan family have started to contact me more frequently."

"It was thanks to their help that I was able to lend you so many supplies during the previous Civil War and the Southern Barbarian War."

After learning the news, even Qin Ming couldn't help but marvel.

These wealthy families have a strong ability to cast a wide net.

He was alone in Lingnan at the time, trying to prevent the imperial court from backstabbing while resisting the southern barbarians.

At that time, I borrowed a lot of supplies from Wan Shu.

Wan Shu was just a line they arranged. If they saw that the timing was not right, they could even cut off this line and continue to serve the court.

In other words, the Wan family has many ways out.

Even if Qin Ming becomes powerful, they can still connect with him through Wan Shu and Qin Ming.

"You mean, the Wan family wants to come under the imperial court through you?"

Qin Ming frowned slightly.

"No, I'm just reminding you that if you and I get married, the Wan family will be at your disposal."

Wan Shu blinked her big eyes and spoke openly without any shyness.

Such a development was beyond Qin Ming's expectations.

"Isn't this unfair to you?"

Although Guan Yue had told him about Wan Shu before.

But up to now, the two have never really opened up and talked to each other.

Unexpectedly, the Wan family was involved today, and Wan Shu finally told Qin Ming about the situation.

Now that things have come to this, Qin Ming naturally cannot use the Wan family as an excuse to get Wan Shu to follow him into the palace.

"How do you know that I would feel wronged if I became a royal concubine?"

Wan Shu's attitude is very clear.

Qin Ming was stunned.

Wan Shu walked lightly to Qin Ming, lowered her head and kissed him...

Seeing this, Qin Ming stopped pretending to be a gentleman.

After picking up the beauty in front of him, he raised his hand and slapped the wind to close the wooden door of the hall.

call……

The sky was dark and I didn't know who blew out the candle.

The eunuchs and palace maids around also left on their own accord.

It's another night with beautiful flowers and full moon.
