Chapter 22 The Chief of a Village

"Five hundred taels? I can't take it out!" Zhu Di answered simply.

Liu Chun was stunned. Zhu Laosi, you should not be too shameless in life! You are a vassal king, but you can't afford 500 taels of silver. Do you think of me as a child?

Don’t think you are the future Emperor Yongle, I’m afraid of you. Since we met, you arrested me, suspected me, and wanted to force my godfather to die. Now I’m going to work for nothing and not pay!

It's tolerant, but who can't bear it!

Be careful that I will go to your nephew and completely cut off your dream of spring and autumn!

Liu Chun hummed angrily, and Zhu Di smiled softly and said helplessly: "My royal palace does not have five hundred taels of silver. If you want money, you can give you treasure money!"

"Baochao?"

Only then did Liu Chun remember that in the early Ming Dynasty, there was a great lack of gold and silver. Lao Zhu issued a banknote called "Baochao" based on the practice of the Yuan Dynasty.

At first, Baochao was very strong, but Comrade Lao Zhu's economics was too poor after all, and he was not well prepared and was still being issued indiscriminately. Not long after, the currency value dropped rapidly.

At present, basically one hundred jin of treasure money can be worth seventy jin. In some places, it is only fifty jin.

However, in Peking, because it was too late to reach, the people still mainly used silver and did not accept Baochao. However, the Yan Prince's Mansion was not good, and Zhu Di's salary was settled by Baochao.

Zhu Laosi was also quite upset. Not long ago, I heard from my brother-in-law that something happened to the treasure banknote in Jiangxi. Erguan Baochao can only be exchanged for 500 yuan, which is equivalent to one-quarter of the currency value.

Xu Zengshou advised Zhu Laosi to take advantage of the stability of the currency in the north and exchange more gold and silver to save, after all, the paper piece is not useful.

If it is exchanged for gold and silver, it is equivalent to opposing my father's money method, but the royal family's expenses are too high and they cannot live on a pile of paper. Zhu Di was hesitating and entangled.

"So that's it. If you accept the treasure money, I will give you a thousand guan!"

What a big deal!

Liu Chun rolled his eyes, "Prince, the grass-roots people want money, but they don't put their own wallets in. I use them to hire workers. I also need to build some stone mills and buy iron pots. Peking is different from the mainland, and you can't hire workers in the countryside with treasure money."

Zhu Di hesitated, could it be that he really wanted to give this kid private money?

At this time, Zhu Neng suddenly came over and said in Zhu Di's ear: "Prince, five hundred taels are not much, the Lu family took out five hundred taels for this kid, wanting to resolve the conflict."

"Lu family?" Zhu Di hesitated.

"It is the Lu family who was instigated by Wang Tang and falsely accused Zhu Hu, a thousand households of Jinyiwei!"

"oh!"

Zhu Di suddenly realized and immediately had an idea.

"Liu Chun, I have already written to the capital, sued Wang Tang, distorted the imperial edict, collided with the Jinyiwei, and affected the secret affairs of the military and state. If nothing unexpected happens, his dog head cannot be saved. It can be regarded as an explanation for the dead Zhuhu Zhu Qianhu. I will go to pay tribute to Zhu Qianhu. There are so many heroes in the Jinyiwei. Instead, they were framed by a slut. It's really pitiful!" Zhu Di also wiped his eyes with his sleeve.

This acting skill made Liu Chun stunned.

Zhu Di said again: "As a scholar, Lu Chang'an, who was a scholar, cling to the powerful and aided the evil, and did things wrong in the local area. I asked the governor's yamen to remove his fame and honor, and demoted his whole family to slaves... As for the property of the Lu family, I decided to give it to your father Liu San to reward him for his merits. In addition, what official position is your father now?"

Liu Chun said foolishly: "It's a hundred households, the saints have just been promoted."

"Well, the will of the father should not be changed at will. This way, I have checked it. The Aries House has few people and is not worthy of its name. It is temporarily reduced to a hundred houses and will be responsible for your father."

After Zhu Di finished speaking, he patted Liu Chun on the shoulder, "I still value you father and son very much. Do your best. When I win, I will definitely be rewarded!"

After saying that, Zhu Di laughed and left.

It’s so satisfying. It’s so satisfying. It’s done what you want to do without spending a penny. It’s great!

Liu Chun was left, confused.

Grandma's!

What is this?

I just wanted to make some hard money, but why did I give me the Lu family's property? I even threw it into a hundred households. It was a bit big joke!

Zhu Neng came over with a smile and poked Liu Chun.

"Silly boy, are you so happy! I just said only five hundred taels of silver, but haven't said five hundred acres of land yet! You guys have made a lot of money!"

Zhu Neng leaned down and scratched his head and said, "Brother Liu, what else do you have? Can you give me some?"

Liu Chun blinked, "Thank you for kindness is not a gentleman's behavior!"

Zhu Neng's face collapsed, "To be honest, the prince is going to take me to the battle this time. My brother hasn't married yet! If he dies in his country, our Zhu family will be defeated."

This guy grinned and almost cried.

Liu Chun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. On the surface, Zhu Neng was loyal and courageous and did not avoid swords and guns, but behind him was a timid face. It seemed that Zhu Di also had times when he knew people unknown!

"Brother Zhu, I have shown you that your forehead is wide, your chin is thick, your ears are big and truncated, and you are slender and rich. Not only you, but even your descendants will receive blessings. The Duke and Marquis will continue and the incense will continue!"

"Ouch!"

Zhu Nengxi didn't know where to put his hands, "My Brother Liu, you really have the ability to be well-rounded, I'm convinced! Don't worry, Zhu Neng is not an ungrateful person. As long as you said, I will repay you. Even if you are down, disabled, or beg for food, you will be a guest of honor in our family!"

"Bah, you're just begging for food, your whole family begging for food!" Liu Chun saw through what kind of master and what subordinates he brought out. This Zhu Neng was as shameless as Zhu Di.

Liu Chun was too lazy to stay in the royal palace for too long. The army was about to fight in the north, so he wanted to rush back quickly to prepare military rations.

The first time I went to Arieskou, the two of them had only one hundred acres of hillside land. This time when they returned, the land of the Lu family belonged to him!

A thunder sounded like a flat ground and suddenly became rich!

"It feels pretty good, right?" Liu Chun said with a smile.

Liu San disagreed, "Boy, don't be proud. The military service is the most rigorous. It is not easy to buy military rations for 10,000 people. Just relying on the property of the Lu family may not be able to fill the hole. If it cannot be completed on time, be careful!"

Liu Chun shivered. Could it be Zhou Yu's move against Zhuge Liang?

Liu Chun subconsciously shrank his neck, but soon he straightened his chest and smiled at Liu San, "I have a way to ensure that I can complete the task!"

"How can I guarantee it? It's not based on your mouth, right?"

Liu Chun shook his head, "Of course not. I am going to disperse all the land of the Lu family!"

"What?" The third master was shocked and hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse and stopped the vehicle.

The third master jumped off the shaft of the carriage, almost carrying Liu Chun, and got off the carriage!

"Little bastard, you're crazy!"

The third master was furious. The two of them had already decided to accumulate their family business, be a rich man, and make a good move. Finally, the huge pie fell off, and the kid actually wanted to disperse it.

Is the brain sucked?

"I tell you, no land can be lost even if it is a cent or an acre. This is our family business!" The third master said viciously. He has never longed for land so much!

Liu Chun shook his head hard and corrected: "This is not our family business, this is what King Yan transferred the Lu family's industry to us."

“Is there any difference?”

"Of course, the King of Yan wants us to complete military rations. If there is still a surplus of land and land, it means that we have not done our best. Even if we complete it on time, we will take advantage of the King of Yan! This advantage... do you dare to take advantage?"

"ah!"

Liu Sanyi shivered. As the Jinyiwei, he had served Zhu Yuanzhang and had also seen the storms of the court. Yes, it was difficult to take advantage of the superiors. If they were remembered in their hearts, they would settle the accounts sooner or later.

How many ministers just greedy for the money from the Zhu family and were caught!

Thinking of this, a cool breeze blew up Liu San's neck.

"Be good, so, this time we not only can't make money, but we also have to pay it in it?" The third master said distressedly.

Liu Chun shrugged, "Is there any other way?"

"Then, wouldn't that mean we're going to do it in vain?"

Liu Chun smiled silently, "Of course it's not in vain. We actually made a lot of money!"

"Where did you make money?" The third master was a little too confused.
