Chapter 198 When in doubt, ask the system

"As long as His Highness is not involved in salt, mines, or taxes, and the number of soldiers he recruits is within five thousand, these chieftains will not do anything to His Highness."

He Zhongjin explained to Xiao Tingxuan that he had basically figured out the lifeblood of these chieftains after he had been here for so many years.

When Xiao Tingxuan heard this, he immediately became unhappy.

"Then this king has become Sanhe's mascot."

Salt and minerals, whether in Sanhe or Dazhou, these two items are essential in life, especially salt. All animals must eat salt.

Salt, this is definitely a huge profit.

As for this tax.

The emperor granted Sanhe to him. It should be said that Xiao Tingxuan would collect the taxes of Sanhe.

Although the harvest is not much, mosquito meat is still meat.

But now, Xiao Tingxuan can't even eat this bit of mosquito meat.

Then why is he still here? Is he really here to act as a mascot?

Seeing Xiao Tingxuan say this, all the adults kept silent, thinking secretly in their hearts that it is not impossible for you to understand it this way, because you are the mascot.

Seeing that everyone was speechless, Xiao Tingxuan stopped asking further questions on this matter.

Xiao Tingxuan asked: "How many chieftains are there in Sanhe? How is the family's power? Tell me."

"Back to Your Highness, in Sanhe, apart from those small families and small forces, there are three main forces. These three forces..."

He Zhongjin began to introduce the current situation of Sanhe to Xiao Tingxuan. Generally speaking, the entire Sanhe is currently in the hands of three forces.

These three forces are the Ma family, Zhang family, and Bai family.

Among them, the Bai family is a bit special. They focus on sea trade and are the overlord of the sea.

The specific strength of the three families is not clear, but everyone knows that there is an innate strong person in charge of the three families.

When Xiao Tingxuan heard this, he realized that what Zhong Jin said was almost the same as what Lu Jiancheng told him.

Sure enough, each of these chieftains has an innate powerhouse in charge.

It seems that these chieftains are really powerful. It is impossible for Xiao Tingxuan to deal with them in a short time. He can only think about it in the long term.

Next, Xiao Tingxuan assigned Li Nanchun and Li Yifan the task of leading the feudal team to find a place to build houses.

The task now is to settle down the home first and think about other things later.

Xiao Tingxuan said to Li Nanchun and Li Yifan's uncle and nephew: "Uncle, Yifan, I will work hard for you in the next period of time."

"I obey my orders!"

Li Nanchun knew that time was running out, so he immediately took the job and took Li Yifan down to work.

At this time, He Zhongjin asked: "Has your Highness prepared enough food and grass?"

He used to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, in charge of money and food in the world, and he was very sensitive about money matters.

Xiao Tingxuan dared to issue this order. He should have sufficient preparations in terms of food and grass. Otherwise, would he let everyone drink from the northwest wind?

"No, it's only enough for the team to spend a few days."

Xiao Tingxuan shook his head and did not conceal He Zhongjin.

If there is no storm on the road and the supplies are not blown away, it should be able to last for a few more days.

"ah?"

Hearing Xiao Tingxuan's answer, not only He Zhongjin but also other adults showed horror on their faces.

The remaining food is enough for a few days' expenses. If they don't hurry up to find food and build a house, it's because Xiao Tingxuan's head is abnormal, or they have been here for a long time and can't keep up with the pace of the times.

Before the adults could speak, Xiao Tingxuan spoke again.

"Master He, you used to be the Minister of Household Affairs. From now on, I will hand over the management of my king's finances to you. Don't let me down."

"???"

After hearing Xiao Tingxuan's words, He Zhongjin wanted to say something.

You have nothing now and only have a few days of rations left. Now you are handing over the financial power to me. Do you want me to conjure food for you?

It's difficult, it's so difficult, it's so difficult to meet such a prince.

"I accept your order!"

Although he complained in his heart, He Zhongjin still agreed with his mouth.

In the past, when he was the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, he had encountered financial shortages, and he had not come across them before.

Therefore, Xiao Tingxuan is equal to his second spring.

Even if you can’t do it, you have to do it, and even Crush Ya must agree.

Jian He Zhongjin agreed, and then Xiao Tingxuan looked at the other adults.

"The king will have other things to trouble you sirs next, so please don't refuse me."

"At your Majesty's command!"

All the adults agreed with their hands. It was their blessing that Xiao Tingxuan could use them, and they would naturally not refuse.

If Xiao Tingxuan doesn't use them, it means that they are completely worthless in Xiao Tingxuan's eyes, which they don't want to see.

"I would like to thank all of you in advance."

Xiao Tingxuan thanked all the adults, and then looked at Mu Fei.

"Sir, do you want to sleep in the same room as me?"

Living conditions are so poor now that only Xiao Tingxuan, as a prince, is eligible for the single-room treatment.

Not even Mu Fei, otherwise he would be gossiped about.

It was also in order to get closer to Mu Fei that Xiao Tingxuan asked Mu Fei if he wanted to sleep in the same room with him.

"oh?"

As soon as Xiao Tingxuan said these words, all the adults opened their mouths and their eyes moved back and forth between Xiao Tingxuan and Mu Fei.

What does Xiao Tingxuan mean? Could it be that Xiao Tingxuan is as good as Long Yang?

It seems to be because Xiao Tingxuan did not bring a maid in the vassal team.

Combined with what Xiao Tingxuan said, it seems that this possibility is the greatest.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I will arrange it myself, so Your Highness, please don't worry about it."

Mu Fei noticed the strange looks of the adults, and was speechless in his heart, so he immediately refused.

"Okay!"

Xiao Tingxuan also realized that what he had just said had caused the adults to misunderstand him. Seeing that Mu Fei refused, Xiao Tingxuan no longer tried to keep him, otherwise, this matter would be really unclear.

Afterwards, Xiao Tingxuan asked the adults to disperse and came to the room prepared for him by the adults.

The room was very simple and even had a musty smell.

Xiao Tingxuan frowned slightly, and finally accepted it.

Starting a business is not easy, so it's hard to be a little bit hard, and he will enjoy it when he sits in that position.

"System."

When he was alone, Xiao Tingxuan called out the system.

"Here, host, may I ask if the host needs any help?"

As soon as Xiao Tingxuan called, the system popped up immediately.

Xiao Tingxuan asked: "System, can I use the luck points to exchange for food?"

He is very short of food now, and it is impossible for He Zhongjin to help him gather it.

Even if He Zhongjin can gather it, he is an old man in Sanhe, how much can he gather.

So, Xiao Tingxuan placed his hope on the system, hoping that the system can help him.
