Sign in: The female supporting character in the book disrupted the heroine's glory

Chapter 441 Conspiracy

"Hmph! Stop bragging. What do you have now? Without our help, you are just like an egg hitting a rock."

Jiang Youzhen suppressed his curiosity. Who was the other person? This person seemed to have some hatred towards the emperor.

"Oh? If I were incompetent, you wouldn't have come to me. Let's not undermine each other. Since you want to cooperate, then show your sincerity!"

The middle-aged man didn't get angry at all, he was very cunning.

"You are short of money now, right? It just so happens that Jiangnan started to implement the tea permit system last year, and many powerful merchants began to transport tea and goods to the border. Although the list is confidential, it is not difficult for us to get it."

The hoarse male voice sounded young, perhaps around twenty years old.

Jiang Youzhen carefully distinguished and suddenly thought of a person. However, that person's voice was lower and mellower than this one. He was not sure, so he listened again.

"This list is no longer a secret! You don't think this can be used as a token of your loyalty, do you?"

"You only know part of it, right? Do you have a list of those secret big merchants? There are also people in the court who have designated a few of them to deliver goods across the border. Do you know the profits?"

The hoarse man chuckled, and the sound was like a bellows, which made people feel uncomfortable.

However, these people actually set their sights on the tea-invitation system. At the very beginning, they were like bees smelling honey.

Jiang Youzhen thought to herself, if she could enter the court right now, how could she let these people take advantage of her?

Now that I think about it, all the benefits were taken by others, and I only made a little money. It’s really a loss.

No! It's too cheap for the Second Prince. He looks so sad when he gets some silver. It's still too little.

"Those people are secretive. The officials of the Second Prince's lineage have made a lot of money with this. Otherwise, why do you think the Third Prince is targeting those merchants who sell tea? Those are just small profits. His real intention is the list in our hands. As long as he has the list, don't you worry about not being able to get a piece of the pie?"

At this time Luo Dan interrupted and said, "I'll give you the list, you can do whatever you want with it. But I don't think you would do anything to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. How to impress them depends on your own ability."

As expected, when the Second Prince was mentioned, Jiang Youzhen once again felt that the Second Prince had gotten away with it. This fellow must have taken back the 100,000 taels that he had given her long ago. It was really an ugly way of eating.

But what she valued was not the money, but the political achievements. The construction of the new wharf, the opening of the canal, and the tea permit system, any one of which was enough for her to be promoted.

Alas! It's a pity that she didn't become a prince.

“Who knows whether this list is true or false?”

"Everyone on the list is very low-key. Their families even use gold bricks to build their ancestral halls. Do you think those who are on the surface are wealthy and the richest people in this dynasty? There is a saying that wealth should not be shown off. Don't you know that?" Luo Dan chuckled.

"Whether it is true or not, you will know it once you check. Since you have decided to cooperate, why should we lie to you?" The hoarse man's tone was not as good as Luo Dan's. It was obvious that one of them played the good cop and the other played the bad cop.

"If this list is true, then you two are a timely help. In this case, let's talk about another exchange condition!"

"I'll tell you this later. It won't be difficult for you." Luodan's voice was very soft and a little lazy, just like him.

"this?"

Hearing the other party's hesitation, Luo Dan said: "Don't worry! It's a piece of cake for you. Our request is not excessive. It will be a hundred benefits for you without any harm!"

The man was finally persuaded, and the three of them talked a few more words about the future. In the end, they did not stay any longer, and Luo Dan and the other man sent the middle-aged man away.

It was a pity that the screen was tightly blocked, and Jiang Youzhen did not dare to move. Luo Dan's kung fu was not weak, and if they found out, they would definitely kill him.

"I don't think this guy has any ability."

Jiang Youzhen originally wanted to wait for them to leave and quickly return to the room, but unexpectedly the two men did not leave and instead started chatting.

"He is the most suitable candidate at the moment. It doesn't really matter to us whether he can succeed or not, as long as we can achieve our goal. This kind of person who thinks highly of himself, is extremely greedy and has a little cleverness is the most suitable person." Luo Dan still spoke leisurely.

"I hope so! I hope he can show some skills, otherwise we have to look for the next one." The hoarse man seemed to be pessimistic about this man.

"What about Jiang Youzhen? Do you think she can do it?"

Huh? Jiang Youzhen pricked up his ears immediately when he heard his name.

"I don't know if you can succeed, but I don't think you can handle her. She's like a loach, too slippery. She doesn't rely on anyone, and before she even entered the court, she's already stirring up trouble behind the scenes. She has some abilities, much better than the one just now, but she's hard to control."

What is it like to eavesdrop on others' comments about you behind your back? Especially when you don't know whether they are praising you or scolding you.

"Try your best! I think she has great ambitions and can accomplish great things, but it's a pity that we can't use her for our own benefit yet."

"What? Are you soft-hearted towards her? The master has said that if you can't win her over, you should kill her. In any case, you must not ruin our plans."

"Don't kill people all the time. You have to give them a chance, right?" Luo Dan snorted coldly, then stood up and walked to the door.

"When did you become so soft-hearted? Don't forget why we came here in the first place. If you value talent and can't bear to kill him, then leave it to me."

Jiang Youzhen hated inwardly: You hoarse man, I don’t know you at all, I have only met you once at most, and you want to kill me?

Why are these people so self-righteous? Why do they think they can kill me if I don't agree to cooperate with them?

She will verify it after she goes out. If the hoarse man is the one, don't blame her for being rude.

I didn't want to get involved in this matter. After all, who becomes the emperor is none of my business. But it's not okay if you plot against me.

"Master! Tong Huaian and his servants are coming towards us!" A report suddenly came from outside the door.

Jiang Youzhen was shocked, thinking that he must be here to find him.

"Why would he come here? Could he really be here to meet that person?" the hoarse man immediately started to speculate.

"Let me go out and test it out. It doesn't look like that, otherwise I wouldn't have come here just now!"

"Then go ahead! I shouldn't stay any longer, so I'll leave first! If he really has the same goal as us, we'll kill him to prevent future troubles!"

Kill, kill, kill! You are a beast with a well-developed brain and limbs, and you kill at the slightest provocation.

Jiang Youzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to see clearly who the person opposite him was through the tiny gap in the screen, but he couldn't see clearly at all. He only saw a black figure flash by.

The two left quickly. Jiang Youzhen stopped and waited for a moment and was about to go out.

But the sound of footsteps was heard again, and Jiang Youzhen cursed in his heart, when will it ever end?
