Chapter 414: Traitor

Has Cai Guo really reached a desperate situation?

Huang Fu took a printed map of Anyang and drew it with a charcoal pencil, "Your Majesty, this is the red copper mine, which happens to be in the center of Sanchuan.

If we lose the cuprite, we lose the present heartland of the country!

Your Majesty, will Cai Guo still have a chance at that time?

I have never heard of a person whose heart was removed and still alive! "

After a short pause, Huang Fu continued: "In the current state of Cai, there are only three rivers left. Luochuan and Yongchuan are located in dangerous places, but the interior is fertile. Tongchuan, surrounded by Luochuan and Yongchuan, is mountainous, but It is a treasure land of minerals. The three rivers are interdependent, and this is the land of abundance belonging to Cai Guo.

Although our temporary capital is located in Yongchuan, the industrial center of Sanchuan is in Tongchuan.

Next to the production of red copper ore is the government of Tongchuan, Tongchuan Prefecture, which is the real hinterland. If Tongchuan is given up, Cai Guo will be completely over! "

"No, Your Majesty, we still have a choice!" At this moment, Zhu Chongde, Cai Guo's number two figure, new deputy prime minister, and leader of the reform movement, stood up.

Huang Fu turned his head to look, "Oh, I don't know what advice Vice Prime Minister Zhu has?"

Zhu Chongde ignored Huang Fu's sarcasm, and went straight to Emperor Cai, "Your Majesty, I went to Anyang to study law, and I also had acquaintance with Anyang's social conditions.

We still have another option, and it is an excellent option, that is to sell the red copper ore to Anyang!

Sell ​​the red copper mine to Anyang, in exchange for Anyang's funds, in exchange for Anyang's products and arms, and let Anyang bear the pressure of the red copper mine! Multi-tasking! "

As soon as this idea came out, Emperor Cai Guo was stunned at that time, not knowing how to evaluate it. You know, the reason why the red copper mine is widely known is because of Anyang's good deeds! Now, want to sell the red copper ore to Anyang?

The prime minister next to him, Huang Fu, frowned deeply, and didn't immediately object, thinking and thinking, thinking and thinking...

At this moment, an official stepped forward, "Prime Minister Zhu, this...there is a deep blood feud between us and Anyang. I am afraid it is meat buns beating dogs. Besides, why would Anyang help us withstand the pressure?

Besides, there have long been rumors that Anyang has dark iron veins and red copper mines, and is also on good terms with the Sea Clan. They should have no shortage of resources. "

The surrounding officials have also become active, this time they are really active - if they can cooperate with Anyang, who would choose Yaozu. Although it is not an exaggeration to say that Cai Guo and Anyang have a deep blood feud, but the two sides are human races after all. And at this critical moment, if Anyang is willing to lend a helping hand, everyone will turn a blind eye to ignore the hatred.

The quarrel also awakened Emperor Cai. With hope, Emperor Cai Guo suddenly became wise, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, "Zhu Chongde, tell me your reason!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhu Chongde immediately eloquently eloquently. "First of all, Anyang focuses on business. In fact, we have cooperated with Anyang before and sold some commercial bases in Anyang in China.

These base areas, as well as all the merchants in Anyang, did not do anything against us during the war between us and Anyang! We can even buy from them normally.

In the words of Anyang merchants, unless ordered by the virtuous king, they will stick to normal business activities. Guaranteeing commercial activities is the greatest loyalty to Anyang.

In fact, they did. The last time Marshal Ye Weirong was able to rescue His Majesty in time, it was thanks to the information delivered by the Anyang businessman. "

Emperor Cai nodded. In any case, up to now, Anyang's business rules are indeed commendable, and no one can find any principled problems.

Zhu Chongde continued: "There is another point. Although Anyang has always sold black iron and magic weapons, etc., I have never heard of Anyang discovering spiritual ore veins. This can only explain one point. I think that Anyang's black iron, etc. It was obtained from the Sea Clan.

And based on my views on Li Xian and the development of Anyang, I think that Anyang needs a mine of spiritual materials very much, so that they can get rid of the shackles of materials.

Self-sufficiency has always been a very important principle in the development of Anyang.

Finally, there is one more point, which is aimed at Anyang merchants. Recently, businessmen in Anyang have begun to invest abroad.

It is not new for Anyang businessmen to invest in the development of minerals, build roads and factories in Jin State.

If we hand over this red copper mine to Anyang merchants for development now, there will definitely be Anyang merchants.

And as long as we can hand over this mine vein to Anyang, even if it is an Anyang businessman, Anyang will inevitably bear the danger. And Anyang merchants will not interfere with our internal affairs! "

Huang Fu also had to nod: "The analysis is very good, but one thing, we can't be sure that Anyang is really willing to take this trouble! I'm afraid that the merchants will be tempted, but they are stopped by Li Xian. Don't think that Li Xian is not very good now. He is in charge, but the whole of Anyang is firmly controlled by Li Xian. Moreover, the businessmen in Anyang are almost obedient to Li Xian.

Therefore, if you want to achieve your goal, I am afraid that you will have to ask Vice Prime Minister Zhu to walk away. "

With that said, Huang Fu turned to Emperor Cai, "Your Majesty, Deputy Prime Minister Zhu is the most familiar with Anyang, and I am afraid that only the Deputy Prime Minister is capable of this important task."

Zhu Chongde frowned slightly. Although what Huang Fu said sounded good and correct, why did he have a feeling of fright?

Just as he was thinking about it, Emperor Cai Guo had already ordered, "Zhu Chongde, then you are going to Anyang, you want...forget it, you can figure it out, the bottom line is that Anyang cannot interfere in our internal affairs!

Let's go now! "

"Yes!" Zhu Chongde didn't have time to think about Huang Fu's thoughts, so he took the order and left, and flew to Anyang overnight.

After Zhu Chongde left the main hall, Emperor Cai Guo yawned, a little unable to hold back: "Let's go, let's talk about something tomorrow."

After everyone left, Prime Minister Huang Fu returned home and immediately took out a Lingtong Baojian, a low-level one with a communication distance of only ten miles. This kind of low-level psychic treasure, as long as the mercenary group can get it, of course Huang Fu can also get it by beating around the bush.

However, it was not Huang Fu himself who used this spiritual treasure, but a personal soldier who had never shown himself in the outside world. The soldiers connected to the merchants in Anyang through the Lingtong Baojian, and they opened their mouths and said: "It's a big deal, we want 50 magic weapon-level flying swords, and we will trade them in the old place!"

On the other side, the Anyang businessman gasped, "Fifty magic-level flying swords! You want me to contact King Xian. Then tell me, what is it?"
