Accompanied by the sound of firecrackers.

Zhou Heng spent a New Year's night.

Last night was likely to be the most profitable time for all the merchants who bought firecrackers in Chang'an City.

Zhou Hengxin said that he also brought a modest force to promoting the economic development of Chang'an City.

Early morning.

Sunlight shines through the hidden windows, and the golden rays are like golden ribbons.

The room was much brighter in the sun.

Zhou Heng staggered up from the bed, walked to the table, picked up the teapot and drank a few sips of herbal tea directly from the teapot spout to make himself more sober.

"Why is there no one?"

According to the usual time, the Prince's Mansion should be very lively at this time.

But today there was silence outside, not even the sound of a bird's call.

Get dressed.

The costumes of the Great Zhou Dynasty are biased towards the Tang Dynasty in history, the costumes are good-looking and gorgeous, with a strong oriental color, without the help of the maid, Zhou Heng seems to have worn it several times before he could barely wear it.

The heart said that the clothes should also be designed so cumbersomely.

Push open the door and enter, walk through the cloister, and come to the antechamber.

"What about people?"

Seeing that there were still two people in the front hall, Zhou Heng immediately asked, and when they saw Zhou Heng come out, the two of them were so frightened that their hands trembled, and the porcelain bottle in their hands fell to the ground.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

One on the left slurred.

looked at Zhou Heng with fear in his eyes.

Zhou Heng looked at the nervous two people in front of him, his eyes on the broken porcelain pieces that fell to the ground, which were the enamel vases in his study.

The value is at least a few hundred taels of silver in the current Chang'an City.

Steal?

Steal?

"What are you doing here?" Zhou Heng asked with a bit of majesty.

"We ......"

The two of them were frightened by Zhou Heng, and they were all clear about the methods of their prince.

"Stealing things? According to the law of my Great Zhou, a thief will be imprisoned for three months, and his hands will be burned, don't you know?"

Zhou Heng walked in front of the two of them as he spoke.

"Please let the prince let us go, we are also forced to do so!"

One immediately knelt down and begged Zhou Heng to let them go.

"As a last resort?"

Zhou Hengxin said that you lied to the ghost.

What's the last resort to stealing?

"Everyone knows that you were deposed, last night they all escaped from the Prince's Mansion and took away the things that could be taken from the Mansion, our brothers and I got up late, and when we found out, the things in the Mansion had been stolen, and we thought about going to your study to steal something. ”

In a few words, Zhou Heng understood the situation.

The tree fell and scattered, or that may be the case.

Zhou Heng glanced at the two people who were kowtowing on the ground: "Do you know that the early bird has worms? You two will get nothing because of laziness." ”

Zhou Heng taught the two of them a stern lesson.

"But you two gave me a wake-up call!"

Zhou Heng suddenly thought of something.

The two of them looked up at Zhou Heng in fear, could it be that Zhou Heng wanted to punish the two of them.

"You two get up for me. Zhou Heng ordered the two of them to get up.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The two of them stood tremblingly in front of Zhou Heng.

"In the past, I may have been full of evil, but now it can be regarded as karma, and people are about to die, and their words are good, you and I will know each other, and today you help me once, I will give each of you a thousand taels of silver, as a reward for the master and servant?"

Zhou Heng asked with a smile.

When the two of them heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and said in their hearts, what is the situation?

Instead of getting angry, you want to give them money?

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't need to say that, you just have something to say. ”

Listening to Zhou Heng's words, the two people in front of them obviously didn't believe that all this was true, when did their prince be so amiable.

"I will give it when I say it, and the husband will keep his word. Follow me!"

Zhou Heng took the two of them to the study.

"Why haven't you taken anything from here?" Zhou Heng asked, didn't he say that he had taken away everything that could be taken away?

Why hasn't the study moved?

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have forgotten that the things in this study are all given by the emperor, if you steal it, it will be a crime of killing your head, and even if those things in the outer hall are discovered, it will only be a pain of flesh and skin. ”

One person replied after Zhou Heng.

For the sake of a little profit, it is not worth losing your life.

"You guys give me all this and move it to the door of the prince's mansion!" Zhou Heng instructed the two of them to move the things in the study out.

"Huh?"

The two of them were stunned for a moment, and said in their hearts, what is this going to do?

"Let's move, but be careful not to break it, this is my wealth for the rest of my life. Zhou Heng told the two of them to be careful when moving.

Move the contents of the study to the door.

There are more than 50 items in total, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, etc.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are you going to do here?" The two of them didn't understand what Zhou Heng meant by moving these things out, could it be that they wanted to bask in the sun?

"Come, give me this banner to hang on the plaque at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion. ”

Zhou Heng handed the banner in his hand to the two people in front of him.

"What is this?"

The two were curious, but they listened to Zhou Heng's words and hung a banner at the door of the prince's mansion.

"The prince has done it, the prince's mansion is on sale, and you can buy an item to visit the prince's mansion for a day?"

Zhou Heng moved a chair to sit on, cocked Erlang's legs, held a teacup in his left hand, his face was leisurely and comfortable, and he didn't look disappointed at all.

Gradually, a lot of people gathered at the door.

"What does that mean?"

"A day trip?"

"What's going on?"

"The prince can't be stupid, right?"

In less than half a day, Chang'an City has almost spread all over the strange things that happened in front of the Prince's Mansion.

Zhou Heng glanced at the crowd and slowly stood up when he saw that people were almost coming.

Zhou Heng got up, and everyone was so frightened that they took a few steps back, saying that they were really that terrible?

"All the fathers and fellow villagers of Chang'an City, old and young masters, today's Prince's Mansion clearance sale, people who know the goods should know what is the quality and value of the things placed here?"

While speaking, Zhou Heng clasped his fists and saluted, like a person walking the rivers and lakes.

"I don't hide it from you, these are all good things, they are rare to see in ordinary times, but today you have a fate, you only need four hundred and ninety-eight taels to buy a treasure. The things that came out of the palace are more than 400 taels of silver, and you can't buy them at a loss, and you can't be fooled. Resell and I guarantee you will make money. ”

"Four hundred taels?"

One person looked at Zhou Heng with some suspicion, and said in his heart that he would really sell it to them?

Why didn't he believe it?

This is Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng who doesn't know what the lower limit is.

"That's right, four hundred and ninety-eight taels of silver, and you can also visit the Prince's Mansion for a day, the Prince's Mansion has a wine pond and meat forest, a five-story tower, a bamboo forest courtyard, and a Fengyue pond, and the beautiful scenery is definitely a visual enjoyment. ”

Zhou Heng continued to flicker.

With Zhou Heng's unremitting efforts, someone finally began to be eager to try.

In less than half a day, the things in the house were sold out, and those doors and windows were not removed for sale.

Zhou Heng sat on the chair, gasping for breath and looking at the silver ticket in his hand.

more than twenty-seven thousand taels of silver. High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion.
