Chapter 1746 The Queen Is so Kind
Muchen smiled and said: "Thankfully the Queen came up with such a method. Fortunately, the weather is cold now and the ice cubes have not melted, so we can save the dumplings. Sir, can I bring them to you to heat up? It happens to be ten o'clock today." Five, I'm just worried about getting something good to give you as a toothpaste."
Zhao Shu stared at the dumplings for a moment and suddenly asked, "Is there anything else?"
"ah?"
"Something else from the queen."
"Master, you are so amazing. How do you know that there is something else?"
"It's not you, the queen. How could you occupy such an important intelligence channel as Tang Yuan Yuan with just a box of dumplings?" Zhao Shu said, "It's such a cold weather, and the road is difficult. How could she do this for just a box of dumplings?" A waste of manpower?”
Muchen smiled and said, "I'm right, there is indeed something left."
He took out a letter from his arms and wrapped it firmly in waterproof oil paper.
"Master, there is another letter here. I must have something important to say to you."
Zhao Shu took the letter, opened it carefully, and finally took out a stack of banknotes from the envelope.
Muchen's eyes widened.
Zhao Shu counted the numbers and said, "Two million taels."
"Two million..." Muchen took a breath of cold air.
So much money, just wrapped in an envelope casually, and asked an intelligence officer to deliver it on horseback?
Zhao Shu looked at the envelope again.
Muchen came over and asked, "Sir, is there nothing else in the envelope?"
Zhao Shu glanced at him: "What do you want?"
"Believe it!" Muchen said, "The Queen sent me so much money, so I have to explain where it came from, who it was given to, and what it is used for, right?"
Zhao Shu put away the envelope and said, "No."
Muchen clicked his tongue: "Our queen, we are just two words for doing things, grand!"
Zhao Shu ignored him.
Muchen thought to himself and said: "Two million silver notes were delivered directly without saying a word. It seems that this should be the money given by the Queen personally. If it was allocated by the imperial court, it would not be so fast or We won’t go through Tang Yuan Yuan’s private channels.”
After talking for a long time, he concluded: "The Queen is so rich and willing to give up!"
Zhao Shu said: "She has a business, which seems to be quite prosperous. She has made some money in the past few years, but not much. After all, it has only been open for a short period of time. These two million taels of silver will probably take away all the family wealth. Take it out after drying it.
"Hey, the Queen is so kind." Muchen was moved to tears, "We happen to be in urgent need of military funds. Not to mention the food and grass for the soldiers, the military pay has not been paid for two months. This money is really too much It solves our urgent need."
Zhao Shu gave him the banknote: "Give it to the chief envoy and let him use it where it should be used. First, pay the soldiers. They are all people who have to support their families. Without military pay, it is easy to shake the morale of the army." "
"Yes, Your Majesty." Muchen took the money.
"Besides, today is the fifteenth day. Let's give the soldiers a good meal."
"My subordinate understands, let's do it now." Muchen was very happy, "The Queen's money came just in time. Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The soldiers will get their pay and have a good meal. They must all All happy."
"Go." Zhao Shu waved his hand.
Muchen stood still and said with a smile: "Sir, you haven't eaten for a long time. I will cook these dumplings for you first. You can eat some first."
"Go about your business. Don't you think I can even cook a few dumplings?"
Good night.
