Chongzhen walked out of Kunning Palace, saw that Wang Chengen was already waiting outside, and asked casually, "Is that done?" ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly said: "These two received the holy decree and immediately carried out the delivery. Especially that Liu Hongxun, who had nothing left at home, simply packed up, and went to Daizhou to take up his post. ”

Chongzhen let out an "oh" and asked again, "Don't they have any complaints?" ”

Wang Chengen said: "No, even if there is, borrow their courage, do they dare to say it?" ”

"What's it called? This is called power, and a single word can change a person's fate. Well, I must consolidate my power and not allow anyone to get in the way, not even the Queen. ”

Thinking secretly, Chongzhen said: "The queen and the families of the two concubines should also be rewarded, and they were going to let one of the queen's brothers succeed Liu Hongxun, since the queen said that they are not suitable for officials, they will not be crowned officials, and they will be rewarded." ”

After speaking, he thought again: "By the way, why don't you let the courtiers elect Liu Hongxun's vacancy, I just want to take a look at their dynamics." ”

After making up his mind, he saw Wang Chengen looking at him with a puzzled expression, and said: "On the side of the imperial family, because the official position is not sealed, each person will add 100,000 taels of silver on the basis of the reward according to the rules." As for Liu Hongxun's vacancy, it was selected by the courtiers and decided on a certain date. ”

Wang Chengen left in response.

Chongzhen looked at his hurried back and smiled smugly.

When Queen Zhou Xiaoniang heard the news, she secretly sighed, and she had to be more frugal to make up for the deficit caused by her father and brother.

Besides, Zhou Kui had made up his mind, so he took a large family with him that day and went to the capital with Boss Ding. On this day, I finally returned to the capital again.

Their mansion is still there, and the people who stayed behind are also very responsible, and they clean up the house no different from when they were there. No, to be precise, it should be more spotless than they were when they were.

Zhou Kui was secretly happy, but he still gave up his family and ran to the hall alone to see the log in the center. The log had been trimmed, and there was not the slightest trace of it.

Zhou Kui's eyes widened in disbelief, and he looked at it again, but saw that the carved arrows were clearly still there, and the note was being blown by the wind from nowhere! couldn't help screaming, ran into the room and closed the door, looking out in horror, except for Zhou Duo who came in to deliver food, no one called the door and refused to open it.

After three days like this, although the hall was gloomy, there were no arrows shooting in again, Zhou Kui slowly relieved himself, went out, and rushed to Boss Ding and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that when we enter the capital, the imperial seal should arrive?" ”

Boss Ding and the three of them, although they had found out that their home was safe and sound, for the sake of insurance, they still stayed in the Zhou Mansion. Hearing that he didn't care about asking the emperor first as soon as he went out, he was extremely disdainful, Boss Ding looked at the other two and persuaded: "The new emperor has a lot of things to do when he ascends the throne, and he wants to get rid of the eunuchs, the emperor will definitely not be able to take care of it, so let's wait." ”

Zhou Kui said: "Hmph, this trip back to Suzhou, I didn't get the money, but I tossed it in a lot, and you didn't feel distressed if you changed it?" ”

"Fuck, money scorpion, vampire." Boss Ding scolded secretly, thinking that he had to rely on him for protection, and stammered: "There are ways to make money, and it is not known that the method outside the old man is wrong." ”

Zhou Kui let out an "oh" and said with great interest: "We are also old friends, you might as well talk about it." ”

Boss Ding paused and said: "After all, the Ming Dynasty also has laws, do you think, someone will give you money for no reason, if you don't want to understand, do you dare to ask for it?" Taking a step back, do you dare to ask for it, and people dare to send it? You may not understand, but what you are most afraid of is to tell the truth.

However, if you open a shop and people turn the money they want to give you into a business that takes care of you, who can catch the truth of them? ”

Zhou Kui still didn't understand, and said: "We are just an old man, if we don't rely on our uncles and nephews to make money, who is willing to give us money for nothing?" ”

Boss Ding smiled: "It's not easy for you to be old, have you always forgotten, you are the emperor's father-in-law, that is, today's father-in-law, how many people can't find the way to send it." ”

"What he said is also true, you can't be honest as a man, and you will definitely have to give it to us in the future, but we have to guard against them, and we can't give him all of ourselves."

Thinking secretly, Zhou Kui said: "Boss Ding said that he laughed, Zhou didn't think that people would send us money, Zhou just thought that he couldn't sit and eat empty, and he had to find a few shops to do some business to make a living, and it wouldn't be a problem for our unsuccessful nephews." ”

Boss Ding knew his plan and said with a dry smile: "In this way, Lao Ding is stingy." ”

Zhou Kui didn't bother to deal with him anymore, turned to Zhou Duo and waited: "What is not angry, have you done your business on the way?" ”

Zhou Duo looked at the brothers, stepped forward and said helplessly: "A few of us have gone out to see it in the past few days, and there are many good shops in all walks of life, but no one is willing to go out." ”

"Oh, no wonder I haven't seen these brothers these days, it turns out that this old fox has already made arrangements, but it's tricking us. Hmph, it's a shame that these brothers are all useless embroidered pillows. Thinking about it, Boss Ding couldn't help but look at the "bucket" and the villain, and it happened that the two were also looking at him, looking at each other, and they all smiled smugly.

It turns out that there are also calculations on these three roads: there was a lot of money to spend, and there was no need to care about the profits and losses of the business, and in the future, he really had to live on business, and he had to firmly tie Zhou Kui.

Zhou Kui is a master who eats people and doesn't even vomit bones, why is it tied? Give him the business and work for him. This can not only prevent the store from being taken away, but also ensure the safety of the family. Of course, the work can't be in vain, hmph, anyway, their uncles and nephews don't understand, and it's not a decimal to get a little bit casually, are you afraid that the salary he will give is less?

Zhou Kui didn't know, and turned to Boss Ding helplessly, saying, "I don't know if Boss Ding has a way?" ”

Boss Ding pretended to be sincere and said: "You can't blame the sons and nephews, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, that is, he has been exempted from industrial and commercial taxes, and everyone is looking forward to living a good life, who is willing to put a good store outside?" In this way, the three of us may wish to run the store for you first, and then slowly expand and strive for it in the future, so as not to worry about not making money. ”

Zhou Kui also meant this, he didn't want them to be so happy, so he said: "The three of you gave it to Zhou, what should you do?" Well, it's better for the three of you to stay, just to bring our uncompetitive sons and nephews. If you really have a profit, Zhou will not lose you, and will give you three percent. ”

When Boss Ding heard this, he was secretly happy, but he nodded reluctantly.

Zhou Kui was overjoyed when he saw it. However, Zhou Kui's heart soon felt like cutting meat. Why? Although the position of these three doors is good, they have not been seriously operated before, and the business is actually only losing money and not making money.

On this day, Zhou Kui went to see it in person, and he was thinking about it for nothing, the imperial seal had actually arrived! And as Boss Ding said, the business was reversed. Zhou Kui was overjoyed and took the opportunity to expand rapidly.
