Zhu Di ignored the wailings of the two piglets and directly dragged them out. Then he gasped for a while before slowly saying: "Liu Chun, you are their master, and the master is also my confidant. You both are very talented and have the best of the world. But you should mention these little beasts carefully. I, Zhu Di, don't want to have a tiger father and a dog son. There is nothing else. I will thank the two gentlemen first."

After Zhu Laosi finished speaking, he bowed slightly at them, then turned around and left, not looking so sincere.

Liu Chun shrugged, "Master, do you understand what the prince means?"

Daoyan frowned and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not a fool!"

"That's right. We each have half of them. I support 15 million taels. You support the remaining 1500. You must not let the two high men get knives."

After Liu Chun finished speaking, he walked out arrogantly.

Just kidding, Zhu Di put an impossible task on the shoulders of the two little pigs. He really wanted to sharpen his son? Go dreaming!

You Daoyan sued the evildoer, and Liu Chun was not strict in teaching. Zhu Di was already very dissatisfied. He first punished his son, and then entrusted them to Liu Chun and Daoyan. He couldn't understand the meaning. You two should wipe the butt for Xiaozhu.

The place outside Zhengyang Gate is different from the three pieces of land in Renshoufang before. It is an area for ordinary merchants to live in. The housing prices are not sold at a sky-high price. It is absolutely amazing to raise 30 million taels.

Liu Chun was not very worried, after all, he still had a lot of tricks! We don’t have any other skills, and no one can do it when it comes to finding money! As for Daoyan, Liu Chun was too lazy to care about him. This old bald thief was obviously different from history... Daoyan, as Zhu Di’s only think tank, was basically in a semi-retired state after the Jingnan Dynasty.

This time, due to the contribution, Liu Chun was separated a lot, and Dao Yanyuan was not satisfied. He wanted to make trouble. Judging from Zhu Di's intention, it was mostly because he wanted Dao Yan to take charge of the Censorate in the future and become the leader of the censor, and specifically focus on people.

This old thief is also quickly entering the role and is provoking everywhere. Very good. The future court is definitely expected to be lively...

Liu Chun went all out, thinking about how to promote the progress of the project and how to find wealth... But he didn't know that an old enemy from the past also arrived in Peking.

Fang Jizu was once a scholar. He should have a good future. He should marry a virtuous wife, then continue to take the imperial examinations, reach the peak of his life, and from then on.

It’s a pity that his dream was interrupted at the beginning. He went to Aries to plead with him, but was defeated by Han Erjie, which became a joke ever since.

The grand scholar-in-law dared not look up when walking, and he was simply ashamed.

What's even more terrible is that Liu Chun's influence is getting bigger and bigger, and Fang Jizu could not be safe in Peking. He had to go south alone to find a way out.

But when he left his hometown and abandoned his parents and went south, Liu Chun also went south. As the emperor's favorite minister, he was by Lao Zhu's side, calling the wind and rain.

Compared with Liu Chun, Fang Jizu is like an ugly weed, and anyone can step on it.

He gradually gave up the airs of a scholar-in-law and went to be a husband for others, copied and wrote, and tried every means to just eat a bite of food.

Just when Fang Jizu finally settled down and was about to fight, Liu Xue rose again. He had a lot of knowledge and actually encountered walls everywhere.

Gradually, Liu Chun became Fang Jizu's inner demon. Not only did he become a laughing stock, he also dared to humiliate Confucius and Mencius, which was simply a rebellious. From then on, Fang Jizu hated Liu Chun and wanted to peel his skin and eat his flesh... But what's the use of his thinking like this?

Compared with Liu Chun, he was not even a tiny ant, and he was not even as good as his heels. Liu Chun had even forgotten that there was such a person.

But now, he finally has a chance!

Although he is still very far away from Liu Chun, it is no longer out of reach. At least, he has a way to make Liu Chun feel uncomfortable.

The inn at night is silent.

Fang Jizu unfolded the rice paper and quickly wrote down his experiences.

"...Yan Ni built a large-scale construction project, mobilizing hundreds of thousands of civilians and soldiers, stretching for more than 400 miles, and it continued in an endless stream. In the past, Qin Shihuang built the Great Wall and Emperor Yang of Sui built the canal. The world was boiling, and heroes rose up. The previous dynasty governed the Yellow River and the Red Turban Flag. Wherever he went, he destroyed the dead... Yan Ni only occupied a corner of the land, so he indulged in pleasure, built a large-scale construction project, and built a large-scale palace, which consumed the people's strength... From this, it can be seen that the day of destruction is near before his eyes!"

After writing the secret report, Fang Jizu looked carefully several times before putting it into the prepared bamboo tube and handing it out secretly... There are definitely many detailed works like him in Beijing and other places.

They sent all kinds of news back to Jinling for the men to understand Zhu Di's situation.

Almost without exception, in the eyes of these people, the project in Peking is the best example of Zhu Dizhi's complacent and addicted to pleasure!

It is said that Zhu Di is talented and ambitious, and is of a very good grade as the late emperor.

But the late emperor occupied half of the south of the Yangtze River, without any arrogance, but was more thrifty and respectful. But Zhu Di just temporarily owned the north of the Yellow River, so he built large-scale construction, built city walls, palaces, and broadened the canal... You must know that even if the whole country is working hard to do such a big project, he must think twice before doing it.

How many people did Zhu Di have and how much money and food does he have?

Doing this will be a complete suicide.

No need to ask, it won’t take long before Zhu Di will be finished by himself.

Even if it could be maintained, he would have long lost the people's hearts. When the court raised its troops again to fight the north, wherever the banner went, the people would definitely eat pots of slurry and welcome the royal army.

The princes in the court seemed to have seen the miserable end of Zhu Di's destruction, and their mood was extremely relieved. Every day they went to court, they smiled happily, and no matter how many difficulties they had, it would not be a problem.

But compared to the optimism below, the real ministers in power couldn't laugh. Just today, there was a most important deal to be discussed.

On the side of the court, the emperor's teacher Huang Zicheng, the Minister of Revenue Wang Dun, and the Admiral Xia Yuanji of the Royal Bank, three people sat side by side. On the opposite side, there were three people sitting, and the leader was Ma Gang, who was the uncle of the Ma family of Empress Zhu Yunwen!

Huang Zicheng took the lead in speaking, "The price you offer is too low, you must increase by 50%! Otherwise we will not agree!"

Wang Dun said with a stern face: "That's right, at worst, the Ministry of Revenue will take over."

Ma Gang looked at the two adults without any fear. He actually chuckled, "Since that's the case, then leave the Royal Bank to the Ministry of Revenue according to the adults' wishes, and we will withdraw!"

As he said that, this guy really wants to leave.

The flesh on Huang Zicheng's face was twitching, Wang Dun gritted his teeth, and his eyes were blasting fire! So arrogant, who gave you the courage?

"Magang, this is the business of the court. How dare you despise me?" Huang Zicheng asked angrily.

Ma Gang laughed silently, "Mr. Huang, since it's a business, it should be your own will. It's really not possible to force a buy or sell like the court." He paused and said, "Everyone knows that the Royal Bank has long been empty and has over-issued paper money. I don't know how many of them are. It's even worse than the treasure money at the beginning! Now we have to invest millions to barely recover... When the court has something to do in the future, we will also have to borrow a loan, and it's a preferential loan!"

"My lords, don't look at how much money a villain can make. I'm afraid I'll earn more than I earn! If it weren't for the Queen, we wouldn't have taken over."

...

Xia Yuanji, who had not spoken, suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "The late emperor is in Japan, and the Royal Bank is worth billions of taels! Although it is not as big as before, the lean camel is bigger than a horse. If you want to take it away for three million, unless you step on Xia's body!"

Speaking of this, Ma Gang spread his hands, "Since the court has no sincerity in negotiating, we can only say goodbye." They really got up and wanted to leave.

When they all arrived at the door, Huang Zicheng suddenly said, "Wait!"

He stood up, walked to Magang, and took a deep breath, "Mr. Ma, no matter what, you need to add some... You must also think clearly. Without the cooperation of the court in the future, the Royal Bank will be difficult to recover!"

Another person's eyes were facing each other for a full minute.

Ma Gang suddenly smiled, "Okay, I'll give Lord Huang a face, add 10% to 3.3 million taels. We took over the mess of the Royal Bank for the court, but then again, the Royal Bank's mints, printing factories, vaults, and branches will be transferred to us."

Huang Zicheng gritted his teeth, "Okay! I agree!"

"Good! Let's go some money now and get the delivery back!"

After saying that, Ma Gang led two people, took big steps, and came out of the signing room. They were like generals who had won a battle, and they were so proud.

In contrast, these three ministers are sad and stormy!

Wang Dun complained: "Mr. Huang, how could you agree? It's only 3.3 million taels, which is too low!"

Huang Zicheng was full of grief and anger, "Mr. Wang, do you think I am willing? You are in charge of the Ministry of Revenue. Next month, the salaries of all officials will be paid out, and those imperial guards! If they have shortened their money, they will rebel with us!"

Wang Dun gritted his teeth and couldn't regret it. "When Lord Xia asked His Majesty for grants, he lost money, but the court had no conclusions for a long time. As a result, the Royal Bank was out of control. I, I am guilty! I want to apologize to His Majesty!"

Huang Zicheng's eyes were filled with tears, "Shangshu Wang, why are you still acting irritable at this time? We must endure each other and survive this most difficult moment."

Huang Zicheng said: "No matter what, with 3.3 million taels, I can finally deal with it for a while. What should I do next? Let's discuss it again!"

"Let's go with me to see Your Majesty... Go and report the good news!" Huang Zicheng said gritting his teeth.

Report good news!

Is this good news?

Wang Dun was crying.

"Mr. Xia, follow us!"

Xia Yuanji slowly stood up, slowly took off her black hat, and smiled desolately at the two of them.

"I was entrusted by Mr. Ru to take over the Royal Bank... Now that the bank has been sold, what kind of face do I have to stay in the court." Xia Yuanji said, taking off his official uniform and court boots.

They put them on the table together, and then he held his fists at the two of them barefoot.

"Please transfer it to Your Majesty, and I will return home with my seal and live in Linquan."

After saying that, Xia Yuanji walked outside, and Huang Zicheng was panicked. Xia Yuanji was one of the few financial experts of the dynasty. Even if he was not at the Royal Bank, other departments needed such talents.

If he leaves, the loss will be too great.

"Mr. Xia, you must stay! I beg you!"

Xia Yuanji shook his head with a wry smile, "Oh, Lord Huang, a Royal Bank of billions of taels, sold to the queen's relatives... So many depositors and so many merchants, who will care about their fate? I stay in the capital, and the saliva of these people alone can drown me! Lord Huang, when will the Royal Bank be restored and when will I come back? Even if I clean it in front of the door, I will be willing!"

Xia Yuanji's intention to leave was decided, and no one could stop him. He stepped on the sand and gravel everywhere, and his heart was piercing pain. He returned to the mansion step by step. In the last part, blood had been grinded out of the soles of his feet. Behind him was a string of ferocious blood footprints!

It's finished!

Royal Bank is over!

Just 3.3 million taels were sold at a low price!

A foolish lord!

You are dead too!

The people of Jiangnan would not agree, but the merchants of the world would not agree!

Xia...will not agree!
Chapter completed!
