1.57 Borrowing chickens to lay eggs

After sending His Majesty back to the palace, he followed Xiao Huangmen and asked, "Father, no matter how much money you have in your family, it is also owned by Your Majesty." What has to do with my father and son, and what is there to rejoice? ”

Zhang Rang replied with a smile: "Idiot, don't you hear about 'borrowing chickens to give birth to eggs (eggs)'?" Your Majesty has kept the goods in my house. It doesn't belong to me, but it can be used by me. Previously, he helped Meng Tuo, and had no money to buy officials, so he gave me a cup of calamus wine, which was to worship the history of Liangzhou Thorn. Everyone knows one and doesn't know the other. ”

"Could it be that there is still a secret?" Xiao Huangmen asked urgently.

"I told him that two thousand stone Liangzhou thorns are easy to get. However, His Majesty asked for 20 million money for repairing the palace, but it was difficult to reduce it. Zhang Rang smiled: "He scattered all his wealth just to see me." Where did you get 20 million? ”

"How does Meng Tuo answer?" Xiao Huangmen asked.

"What can he do? His face was embarrassed, and he knelt silently. Zhang Rang's tone changed: "Seeing that he couldn't afford to repair the palace, I said, 'Your Majesty knows that you are shy in your pocket, and you will repay it twice after you take office'." ”

Xiao Huangmen first smiled, and then thought about it and was wrong: "Father, doubling is also for Your Majesty's gains, what does it have to do with my father and son?" ”

"Idiot! Did Meng Tuo have it, and when did he pay this money for repairing the palace, how could His Majesty know everything? When His Majesty asked, I said that Meng Tuo had paid in full. When he arrives, he will send all the 40 million dollars to ......."

"20 million went into my father's private treasury!" Xiao Huangmen suddenly realized.

"One in and one out, 20 million to start." Zhang Rang laughed in a low voice: "Your Majesty will give another 100 million today." I will be able to sell the history of the Five Thorns on credit. In this way, borrow your majesty's money, and give birth to my family's wealth. 100 million money changed hands to 200 million. There is not a penny of copper coins in the treasury, how can Your Majesty know? ”

"Father Gao Miao......" Xiao Huangmen couldn't help but be overjoyed.

In the colony, the golden water pool.

This is the most beautiful day in the main book.

I thought that in the depths of the colony, the reputation of Jinshuitan City was not obvious. The lord did not send the post in advance. The market opened hastily, and no one knew. Unexpectedly, all the officials arrived!

Just ask. Liu Bei only told the news to his teacher. So that the teacher can arrange for scholars to visit Taixue. Unexpectedly, this morning, when the court meeting was held, the teacher said casually. So it was passed on from left to right, and all officials knew it.

It shows the fame of the lord, and Luoyang City is unique for a while.

Liu Bei knew it. The so-called exchange of courtesies. Today, the Jinshui market is open, and all officials are coming. He has joy in his family every day, how can Liu Bei not go?

Liu Bei was chatting with his teacher, Liu Yushi, Chen Taichang, Zhang Sikong, Yang Situ, Cui Taiwei and others.

Suddenly, I heard a soft call from behind: "Xuande? ”

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads. It is the arrogant He master.

Liu Bei hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The master craftsman is here in person, and the pangs are shining." ”

"Oh." Seeing Liu Bei greet him with a smile, He Jin's face suddenly eased a lot. This returned the gift: "I heard that Jinshui is open, and a certain family came to congratulate me." ”

"I am grateful for the trouble of Master Lao." Liu Bei said goodbye.

Seeing that Liu Bei was very respectful to He Jin, he did not shy away from it. Cui Taiwei peeked at his colleagues beside him, and then at Liu Bei's teacher. All of them looked as usual, and then suppressed the words that had come to their lips.

Zhang Sikong said with a smile: "Xuande Han clan relatives. The master craftsman is a relative. Clans are not allowed to treat each other as colleagues. A few days ago, the master craftsman held a banquet in the garden, and Xuande took the royal car to the banquet. Later, the queen summoned her and praised her a lot. This is a family matter of the Son of Heaven, and it is not appropriate for us to discuss it, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

The teacher nodded slightly: "What Sikong said is extremely true. ”

Liu Yushi, who has always been black and white, also echoed: "We are all foreign ministers, and Xuande is a clansman." Nature is different. ”

Captain Cui rolled his eyes in his heart. In the final analysis, it is his own disciple, no matter how good he looks.

Liu Bei was talking to He Jin, and heard a soft call: "Old slave, meet the prince." ”

When I looked up, it was Da Changqiu and Cao Jie, who also led the Shangshu Ling.

"Boss, please get up!" Without waiting for Cao Jie to kneel on the ground, Liu Bei hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "It's just a trivial matter of money, why should the boss come in person." ”

Cao Jie looked up at Liu Bei with a blazing gaze. It's like looking at your own juniors.

Liu Bei's heart warmed. Although the internal official is a domestic slave, he is not a family member. Otherwise, how could His Majesty call Zhang Rang 'Father'. Zhao Zhong is 'mother'.

Cui Taiwei peeked at his teacher and the others again, and suddenly understood it.

Without waiting for Zhang Sikong to speak, he hurriedly said: "Da Changqiu and Shangshu Ling are the slaves of the Heavenly Family. Xuande saw that he was old, and it was also decent to stretch out his hand to support him. ”

Everyone immediately glanced at Captain Cui, who had not yet dissipated the copper smell.

"Wei Kao's words can be described as old-fashioned." It is rare that Liu Yushi also praised.

In the words of the teacher: "Those who achieve great things are not informal." ”

"The old slave is here, in addition to the congratulations, he also comes to return to life." Cao Jie whispered.

"Could it be that the seven people are born, and the boss already knows?" Liu Bei was overjoyed.

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Cao Jie replied with a smile.

"So good, so good!" The spring is warm and the clothes are thin. In the long run, there will be chaos. Liu Beiyan can not like it.

Cao Jie said: "Although there are many clues, they are also messy. And let the old slave comb it carefully, and then inform the prince. ”

Liu Bei can afford to wait for this time. This is the right color: "In time, be prepared to listen to yourself." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of the hub.

The gate of Jinshui City slowly opened.

Jinshui small market, built around Jinshuitan. It's a circular shopping street. The mansions on both sides of the street were bought by Liu Bei at the market price and transformed into commercial shops. On the periphery of the intersection of the commercial street and the Colony Road, there is a spacious gatehouse. A plaque hangs upstairs. The plaque is covered with red silk, and the words are missing, so I don't know what the intention is.

This gatehouse is the gate of Jinshui City, and it is also the Jinshui City Building. 2-in-1.

Previously, the gate was closed, and all the officials stood outside the city. Now that it's open, I'm going to take a look.

Unexpectedly, there was a Shu brocade ribbon horizontally in front of the door. Bring the flowers, very happy. But no one knew what it meant. They all looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei was out of the ranks. First respectfully invite the teacher, and then invite the third prince and Jiuqing, with their backs to the gatehouse, and list them after the ribbons in turn. Liu Bei also invited He Jin and Cao Jie to join the ranks, standing beside him, separated from the hundred officials. Then there was a restaurant orchid holding a lacquered wooden tray and walking behind the concierge.

There is a gold scissor on the plate. The cut body is red gold, the rope pattern is cast on the handle, and the round hole at the top of the ring is also tied with a ribbon.

See Liu Bei holding scissors and placing them on top of the ribbon.

Hundreds of officials followed suit. With Liu Bei's gentle cut, the ribbon fell apart. He Jin, who was ranked alongside the Three Princes and Nine Qings, asked with a smile: "What does Xuande mean by this?" ”

Hundreds of officials also tilted their ears.

Liu Bei put a piece of brocade cloth in his hand, and showed everyone with a smile: "Cut off the leftover cloth head of the colored brocade." It's called 'Good Luck'. ”

"I see." He Jin was overjoyed.

Cao Jie looked at the brocade in his hand, looked up at the plaque covered by red silk, and asked, "I don't know what the red silk plaque means?" ”

Liu Bei handed over a brocade rope to Cao Jie's hand, and said with a smile: "Why don't you give it a try, boss?" ”

Cao Jie took half a step back, leaned sideways, and pulled gently.

The red silk slowly fell to the ground. I saw the four big characters of 'Jinshui Market' written on the plaque, which were from the hands of the teacher.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "The red silk plaque is visible." It is said: 'Good cover (trillion) head'. ”

"Good, good, good." Cao Jie's face was also full of joy.

He Jin was even more like no one else, and laughed: "It is said that Xuande is a unicorn descending from the sky, and he often behaves unexpectedly. A certain family knows today, and today knows it! ”

Liu Bei bowed down, invited the ribbon to cut the guest of honor, and invited hundreds of officials to enter.

Seeing that Yuan Shao and others were coming from afar. Then he waved his hand and beckoned them to move quickly.
