With Zhu Hao here, everything has a ready-made plan. As the executor, Yu San only needs to complete it step by step.

But Zhu Hao had something to say first.

"Little Third Brother, we have to put the ugly words up front... I am the major shareholder of this business, but you are a legal person. If anything happens, you have to bear the responsibility. After all, 30% of the profits are not for nothing... Of course, although

Even if you maintain your capital without losing money, you can’t treat this business as a child’s play and you must go all out to do it.”

Yu San asked in confusion: "What is a legal person?"

Zhu Hao said solemnly, "It means that you are the main person in charge. In the eyes of outsiders, you are the big shopkeeper of the bookstore, but the majority of the money and profits fall on my side... The accounts must be clear, and all expenses and inputs must be recorded.

Come down, I will come over to check the accounts at any time, and if I find that the accounts are not correct, I will replace them."

Yu San clapped his chest and said: "Brother Hao, who do you think I am? How could I do something that is unjust for the sake of profit? Besides..."

He originally wanted to say something, but he stopped when the words reached his lips.

Zhu Hao smiled slightly and knew what he wanted to say. The general idea was that most of my money still falls on your mother. If I forget about profit just to start a small business with you, then not only will I not be able to help your mother in the future,

Even if you make money, you may not be able to gain a foothold in Anlu.

…

…

Yu San usually has a playful smile, but he has a very good way of doing things.

He has a wide range of people and can make arrangements on his own without any hesitation. If Zhu Hao wants to go to him for anything, he can be said to be a powerful helper when he doesn't know the local environment and power distribution.

After half a day, Zhu Hao felt that his money was well spent.

Zhu Hao had dinner at home at noon and told Zhu Niang that he would return to the palace later in the afternoon. Zhu Niang asked strangely: "Xiao Hao, you can go back early tomorrow morning. Why don't you stay at home to spend more time with your mother, aunt and sister?"

?”

Zhu Hao said: "Mom, I want to go back to the palace as soon as possible to understand the situation, find out useful information, and complete the errands assigned by my grandmother as soon as possible. I also want to play with Prince Xing during my break and cultivate my relationship, so...

"

Seeing that Zhu Hao had many ideas, Zhu Niang didn't have any doubts and immediately nodded in agreement.

…

…

Without resting after lunch, Zhu Hao went out of the city to arrange for manpower to renovate the salt fields to meet the needs of salt drying in autumn and winter.

It was getting late when I came back, so I called Yu San to ask about the leasing of the space. I learned that everything went well. The vacant land itself did not require any rent. I just had to say hello to the government and the landowner. Yu San had already settled the matter.

The relationships that need to be taken care of have also been taken care of one by one.

"Brother Hao, we have spent almost three taels of silver. The carpenters are working as fast as possible. What if the money is not enough by then?"

Yu San was a little worried.

Five taels of silver may seem like a lot, but if you really want to prop up a facade and do business, it's still very tight.

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "After the shed is set up, just invite a storyteller to come back. It won't cost much... By the way, I remember that there are storytelling venues in the east and south of the city. Have you visited them?"

Yu San nodded and said: "I've seen it, but hiring people is not cheap... If you pay a salary on a monthly basis, it will cost 300 yuan to work for more than 20 days a month."

"You can't save a penny of the money you should spend. The quality of the storyteller is directly related to the prosperity of the bookstore's business. You can't be careless. I'll leave this book with you. You can start storytelling at any time after you recruit people. If there are no people at the beginning, we won't accept them.

Money, make money at a loss, and then charge for it when the storyteller reaches a critical moment... If it really doesn't work, you can go up and tell it yourself..."

Having said this, Zhu Hao looked at Yu San with a smile.

Yu San quickly waved his hand: "I don't have that ability. It's better to hire a serious storyteller. It's no problem for me to help you."

Zhu Hao nodded: "I will give you a notebook first. I haven't finished writing it yet. You have to cheer up and don't let others deceive you. You have the final say on how to arrange it."

Yu San's voice rose an octave: "Brother Hao, look at it, if someone dares to cheat us, he will definitely have a hard time!"

…

…

Yu Sanruan spoke with confidence, but Zhu Hao knew that Yu San was mostly just pretentious.

If Yu San was so capable, why couldn't he help every time something happened to Zhu Niang?

But if you think about it carefully, every time Zhu Niang encounters trouble, it is all related to the persecution of the Zhu family and the government. Even if Yu San has some power in the local area, he really does not dare to fight with the officials.

If it was just a common man who had a conflict of interest with Yu San, Yu San might have some tricks up his sleeve.

Zhu Hao returned to Prince Xing's Mansion before sunset.

Lu Song was leading people to set up a rack in the yard, and was a little surprised to see Zhu Hao come back.

"Lu Dianzhan, what are you busy with? Do you want me to help?" Zhu Hao seemed very enthusiastic.

Lu Song looked around at his subordinates. Some of them were covering their mouths and snickering.

Lu Song immediately shouted with a straight face: "How tall are you? You should stay away from this kind of thing. If you lose your dignity and hit you, you will be asking for trouble."

In front of others, Lu Song maintained his usual indifferent attitude towards Zhu Hao, so as not to be noticed that the two of them had a secret connection, but after the airs were almost settled, he still called Zhu Hao aside.

"Why don't you spend the night at home? Why are you coming back so early?"

Lu Song's tone was full of vigilance.

Zhu Haodao: "I am a child, so I can't help if I stay at home... I want to adapt to the environment here as soon as possible. After all, I may have to live in the palace for most of the time for many years to come... Lu Dianzhan, Xingwang's Palace

Isn’t it also half of your family?”

Lu Song was surprised to hear Zhu Hao's affectionate words.

You kid, will you take Prince Xing’s Mansion as your home?

Zhu Hao asked: "Why do you want to set up a shelf in the yard?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Lu Song did not explain.

Zhu Hao smiled, disapproving of Lu Song's vigilance... If you want to get rid of Jin Yiwei's control earlier, then we should cooperate sincerely and sort out the relatively less important situations in Prince Xing's Mansion, so that we have something to report every ten days.

It will not really harm the interests of Prince Xing's Mansion.

"By the way, Lu Dianzhan, when I passed by Wangfu West Street, I saw a long queue of carriages approaching. It didn't look like they belonged to ordinary wealthy families. Who came to the Wangfu?" Zhu Hao continued to ask.

Lu Song glared at Zhu Hao: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. I will tell you what I can tell you."

After saying that, he left with a dark face, as if he was carrying some ulterior secret.

Zhu Hao curled his lips.

I thought to myself, if you don't tell me, you will definitely not tell Lin Baihu. You keep so many secrets in your heart. Sooner or later, Lin Baihu's patience will be worn away. When the time comes, it will be a big trouble for you to expose your secrets.

…

…

Prince's study room.

Yuan Zonggao is reporting to Zhu Youqi.

King Ning sent an envoy to see Zhu Youqian, but he was sent away by Yuan Zonggao.

"Ning Fan has lived in Jiangxi and Gansu for a long time and has little contact with our land of Huguang. Why did he suddenly send an envoy to visit?" Zhu Youqian frowned slightly, his face full of confusion.

Yuan Zonggao looked worried: "This King Ning has been very restless since he became a bastard in the tenth year of Hongzhi. In the second year of Zhengde, he bribed his close ministers Liu Jin, Qian Ning, actor Zang Xian and others to raise desperadoes. Recently, he He even contacted the dignitaries of the capital and wanted to restore his abolished bodyguards, which is extremely ambitious... If he succeeds, there will be no peace in Jiangxi, Jiangxi or even Huguang."

"oh?"

Zhu Youqi didn't take it seriously.

He himself has no rebellious ambitions. Although his son is nominally the first heir to the throne, he knows that even if Emperor Zhengde dies suddenly, there is still a doubt whether his son can successfully ascend to the throne. After all, if the Empress Dowager and Minister Gu Ming both If you object, it will still be difficult to successfully enter the Forbidden City.

As for Prince Ning...

He has no contact with them, so naturally he doesn't care about the affairs on the ground in Jiangxi.

Yuan Zonggao continued: "Since last year, there have been bandits in Jiangxi and Jiangxi. Even Nanchang Prefecture has not stopped, and it even involves the Huguang boundary. All this may be related to King Ning, otherwise he would have no excuse to restore or even expand the guard force... …This time I sent an envoy to visit. I had a brief exchange with the envoy. I heard that his words were very disrespectful to the imperial court, so I immediately dismissed him...King Xing should not have any further contact with Prince Ning to avoid telling the truth.”

At present, Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao's ambition is growing rapidly. During the Zhengde period, the emperor's mischief caused great administrative chaos in various places.

There were also a large number of traitors in the court who gained access to the court by currying favor with the emperor. They occupied high positions in a short period of time and caused frequent incidents of chaos, causing public dissatisfaction. This allowed Zhu Chenhao to see an opportunity to realize his ambitions.

Zhu Chenhao naturally wanted to win over the vassal kings in the surrounding areas of Jiangxi and Jiangxi, especially those who were famous and powerful, so that he could get financial, material and even human support when he started an uprising, so that the whole world would respond.

Zhu Youqian said: "The matter of Ning Fan will be left to Yuan Changshi to resolve."

Yuan Zonggao handed over his hand: "I will handle it properly."

Zhu Youqian suddenly thought of something again and asked: "The two companions and the prince's studies..."

"King Xing, you can rest assured."

Yuan Zonggao said, "I have told Mr. Sui to concentrate on teaching the prince, and only allocate a small amount of time to teach the princess and a few children, so as to distinguish the priorities... If King Xing cares about the prince's studies, he can call him to take the exam at any time. "

Zhu Youyi nodded: "Speaking of which, the Crown Prince's homework has not been tested for some days. Yuan Changshi, please go and make arrangements."
