Chapter Seventy-Four: On the Duty of a Courtier
"This internal official..."Lu Zhi took a quick step and stretched out his hand to grab the little yellow door. Dare to ask? Your Majesty summoned this young grandson of the Cao family to the Hall of Long Live Qianqiu? So what's going on? ”
Lu Zhi is such a character, what he wants to know, he will never stop if he doesn't break the casserole and ask to the end.
Xiao Huangmen glanced at him, and saw that it was Lu Zhi, and his tone was raised, their eunuchs had always looked down on this group of scholars and Confucian scholars. "Your Majesty wants to discuss business with Cao Shuo's little son? What's wrong? Are you trying to stop it? With a "hum", he shook Lu Zhi's arm away with a flick of his hand!
At this time, Lu Zhi seemed to be paralyzed, his eyes widened, and he looked directly at the eunuch.
Your Majesty and the young grandson of the Cao family? Exploring the business experience? This... This little guy? He... Does he really know business?
Puzzled, Cao Shuo and the little yellow door had already taken the sedan chair and walked away slowly.
Lu Zhi stood in place stunned, his eyes glazed and godless!
Seeing this scene, Cao Song stretched out his hand and put it on Lu Zhi's shoulder. "Lord Lu Zhi seems to know only one of them and not the other to my Cao family, my Cao family is the richest man in Luoyang, right? But the origin of this richest man, I'm afraid Lord Lu Zhi doesn't know, right? ”
Speaking of this, Cao Song patted Lu Zhi's back and continued to speak.
"Haha... Come on, come on, I'll give Master Lu Zhi a good talk! The wealth of our Cao family is earned by my young grandson Cao Shuo. When it comes to doing business, I'm afraid that in the entire Luoyang City, no one may be able to have Shuo'er's vision and insight! ”
What the?
Suddenly, Lu Zhi had a feeling of being shocked, and he even felt that he couldn't breathe.
He looked at Cao Song with wide eyes, as if to say? Is this teasing me?
But Cao Song's eyes were firm, and he didn't look like a joke at all!
I'll go? This six-year-old guy really knows how to do business... He... Can he still make a fortune? This has to be a business wizard, right?
For a moment, Lu Zhi really had a thought, could it be that this Cao family's youngest grandson, Cao Shuo? A six-year-old? Can you really let all the gold in His Majesty's Wanjin Hall overflow?
……
……
Luoyang Palace, Long Live the Palace.
"Your Majesty, it's time for the horses in Xiyuan to change this year."
Waiting for Cao Shuo's efforts, Cao Jie reported to Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, a very important matter. "It's just the price of horses this year... If you still buy a thousand horses, the treasury will not be able to afford it. ”
It turned out that the emperor's royal horse needed to be replenished and replaced every few years, after all, the horse had a lifespan of twenty years, and the most mature period of character was only four or five years, and it was too young and easy to be impulsive; If you are too old, you will be lazy, your back will sink, and your limbs and joints will weaken...
That's why we only use horses between the ages of 12 and 16!
It was precisely five years ago that the last replacement was made, and this year... The aging of the horse is serious, and it has come time to have to replace it, but it's just... The price of horses on the market has risen 100 times!
"Ugh..."
Liu Hong, the son of heaven, let out a long sigh, he has always been sensitive to price, how could he not know that the price of horses on the market has soared to nearly five million yuan a horse, and even rises again, this price is the rhythm of going straight to the sky!
"Now, a horse can catch up with the price I sold for a Kannaihou, what a thing!" Another exclamation, or rather a complaint.
Today, Liu Hong, the son of heaven, is very annoying, very irritable!
First, that stubborn Lu Zhi was actually thinking about the money in his Wanjin Hall, damn it! Damn it!
Second, it's this horse... Although he is in charge of the supreme power of the empire, he feels that he is weak in the "main business" of doing business and making money.
Of course, it's not just because of his own reasons, these powerful clans of the Han are really hateful.
I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, they just picked the stall in Xiyuan to replace the horses, hoarded almost all the horses of the entire Han Dynasty, monopolized the market, and directly speculated at sky-high prices!
Whenever I think of this, Liu Hong, the son of heaven, is sentimental, I really can't do business!
Of course, what makes Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, even more irritable is this group of wealthy clans, who grovel like quails on weekdays, but in terms of speculating and making money, they are all very shrewd.
The most hateful thing is that while they are making money, they are also putting on a look of Jun Yaoshun, thinking about it, they are all dirty and ugly faces!
"This clan! Not a good thing! Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, scolded coldly. They make a lot of money one by one, but they are always thinking about my Wanjintang, thinking about letting me spend money everywhere, Cao Dachangqiu, what do you say? They are hateful! ”
"Damn..."
Cao Jie just wanted to say these two words, and even with it, he was ready to issue a strong condemnation of this group of clans.
But these two words were said in advance by a childish child's voice, crisp and resounding, and there was a tone of hatred and hatred with the Son of Heaven.
Cao Jie looked for prestige, but saw the gate of the Long Live Qianqiu Palace, and Xiao Cao Shuo slowly walked in.
It turned out that the Son of Heaven had instructed that Cao Shuo did not need to pass it on when he came here, so... He stepped straight into it, and was hearing the nagging of the Son of Heaven against the clan.
"Shuo'er has seen the emperor's uncle." Immediately afterwards, Cao Shuo stepped into the middle and saluted in a proper manner.
"Cao Shuo is here! Arise, and do not salute. Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, turned around, and seemed to be in a much clearer mood because he saw Cao Shuo, "The 'hateful' sentence to the family just now?" You shouted? ”
"It was Shuo'er who shouted!" Cao Shuo nodded.
"Tell me about it, then? What is their abomination? Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, then asked.
Cao Shuo's eyes rolled, and then explained:
"The whole world belongs to the emperor's uncle, whether it is a courtier, a clan, or a poor family, what should be done is to make the emperor's uncle happy and help the emperor's uncle take care of all the troubles. The Han Dynasty is short of money, Wanjintang has no income, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, shouldn't the wealthy clans ponder how to help the emperor's uncle make money? How do you make the gold in the Ten Thousand Golden Hall full? ”
"But what about them? Instead of helping the emperor's uncle make money, he was still worried about the money in the emperor's uncle's Wanjin Hall, as if he had forgotten the way to be a minister... I am a little child, reading Confucian classics, I know that loyalty to the monarch and loyalty to His Majesty is the first thing, how could they not know? Putting the cart before the horse? ”
Yo yo yo...
Liu Hong, the son of heaven, said this, and his heart was warm! There is a feeling of joy in the heart.
Ouch, the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty, just count the good education of the Cao family... Look at what Xiao Cao Shuo said, the duty of a courtier is to make the Son of Heaven happy! I like money, so you can make money for me. That's what it does! Let's see, one by one, the cart is turned upside down!
"Hahahaha..."
The corners of the Son of Heaven Liu Hong's mouth widened, and a smile widened, "The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, or your Cao family knows its duties best, your grandfather Cao Song managed the treasury for me, and your father Cao Cao gave me the dismissal of officials and handed them over for worship, you little guy, your sweet mouth also made my mood a lot better..."
boasted, the son of heaven Liu Hong couldn't stop laughing.
"Your Majesty seems to like Cao Shuo very much." Cao Jie did not forget to echo a sentence.
"Like, like!" Liu Hong, the Son of Heaven, nodded and greeted Cao Shuo. "Come on, come on, sit next to me, I really have a business problem to ask you little guy."
