Chapter 9: Let's buy Chen Yuanyuan
The four people in the study were silent, Chongzhen drank the tea in the cup one after another, Luo Yangxing did not squint at a loyal guard, Wang Chengen was busy with himself making tea in a pot, and Shen Xing stood as tense as a fool, and he didn't even dare to stand up to his waist, tired and sweaty.
After a while, Chongzhen rubbed his forehead, put down the teacup, and said again: "Cheng'en, I haven't drunk a few sips of tea in such a peaceful mood for a long time, this is all thanks to Shen Xing, hundreds of thousands of homeless people were originally waiting to be fed outside the capital, which made people sit still, but tonight there are thousands of Shen family shop personnel, more than 10,000 catties of rice and noodles, and they are constantly sent, I am very relieved, if there are a few more good businessmen like Shen Xing, how can the suffering of the homeless people!" β
Wang Chengen refilled the tea and nodded in response.
"That is also Your Majesty's contribution to educating the people, of course, Shen Gongzi has such a good deed at a young age, presumably it is also both virtuous and virtuous, Your Majesty should encourage and give it a gift, so as to be a model for my Ming Shangjia, so that future generations can follow his example." "What Cheng En said is very good, and the reward will be greatly rewarded, Shen Xing, if you have any requirements, just mention it and I will agree to it!"
your mm and ask for a reward, just point it and let me make a request, is this an attitude that intends to reward me?
"The small people are frightened, they should not be praised by His Majesty so much, and they dare not think about it, although the small people have the intention of saving the victims, but they also have selfish intentions, please forgive your Majesty!" Chongzhen looked at Shen Xinyi, who was lying on the ground, his face was confused, selfish, this fortune boy's act was still selfish, to say that it was a bit hypocritical and exaggerated to leave a name for the ages, "You don't blame, I won't blame." β
"This one reason, the villain's fame is fake, and he doesn't know anything about the subset of the scriptures and history, and he usually sings some small poems and is elegant, and this time he came to Beijing to be afraid that things would fall all day long, and he happened to meet the hardships of the victims to help him in order to eliminate the anxiety in his heart, these two reasons. The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and even more so when the villain is born in business, the homeless people are avoided in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of the villain, it is an unlimited business opportunity. β
"Unlimited business opportunities, how to say this! You get up first. Chongzhen's originally lazy body was sitting straight at the moment, and his eyes were shining with golden light.
"The villain is willing to pay the silver to buy and reclaim a large area of panicked land in the north to hoard people for farming, and recruit the victims to be the Shen family's farmers." "What a big breath, so big financial resources, I underestimated your Shen family, what I can't do, your little Shen Xing actually wants to do, I know that your move can solve the temporary difficulties of the Ming Dynasty, but I am not a selfish person, do you know that the war in the north continues, and the gold thieves have repeatedly invaded my frontier and robbed my people, and you have hoarded for a while, what is the benefit of spending silver in vain."
When Shen Xing heard Chongzhen say this, he immediately had a good impression of him. If you change the emperor, you still care about the life and death of the wronged man, and solve your own affairs first. "Your Majesty is sympathetic to the villain, the villain is inscribed within, and the villain is also worried about what His Majesty said, so the villain is willing to give three million taels of silver for military salaries, and contribute to His Majesty's efforts to sweep away the gold thieves."
Chongzhen's ears boomed, he was shocked that the words three million taels of silver kept echoing in his mind, because he really needed silver too much, Daming has been suffering from natural disasters and man-made disasters year after year, and the annual endowment is only seven or eight million taels a year after deducting all kinds of expenses, and the rest has long been overstretched, and it is not enough to rebuild the place that was plagued by thieves, where is there still the strength to deal with the wild wolf of Houjin. These three million taels are not silver, they are the blood of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, Shen Gongzi's move is really beneficial to the country and the people, as for the fake exam, it must be the difference between Shen's father and his son Jackie Chan's thoughts, and now Shen Gongzi knows that he can change his mistakes, and he has not yet helped to make a big mistake, the old slave implores His Majesty to give him a lenient punishment for the sake of his young age." Luo Yangxing stood there completely stupid, his face was blue and purple for a while, what the hell is going on, and this kind of operation, three million taels will be given, and he will take the initiative to say that the scientific examination is fake.
Chongzhen was pulled back to reality by Wang Chengen's words, and knew that he had just lost his temper, so he quickly restored his serious majesty, "Chengen, don't ask for mercy, how good it is for the imperial court to select talents, this kid actually dares to fake, he must be stubborn at ordinary times, I will cancel your qualification for the scientific examination today, and I will take care of it for your father, and from tomorrow I will enter the palace to study for two hours a day for one month, I will personally supervise it, if you dare to abandon your studies, you will be punished heavily, and you will drive back to the palace." β
Are we the real protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven? And is this a reward? I'm Chongzhen, you're too shameless, so you can do it for an official, and if you don't help it, you can always kill Shang Fang's sword in all directions? Lao Tzu took 300 million people's coins at once.
Who said that the boy didn't feel bad about the money, Shen Xing was actually a little painful sitting in the carriage, and the money that he could spend not long after he came to Daming is now roughly calculated to be millions of taels, can his old Shen family really resist it? In case the plan has not been realized, the cheap father's family will be emptied, and it is not a joke to collapse first.
Although Li Zicheng has no political acumen, he is a good hand at rebellion, and the Ming Dynasty is full of holes, and the sparks are on fire. Even if you are a person in the future who knows the development of things, you can only stare dryly, do you really want to say how others believe you like a fool, and the Ming people are not pigs!
Headache, stomach pain, weight loss in two months is to lose more than ten pounds, but the taste of hunger is really too difficult, forget it is safe, it's a big deal to run back to Jiangnan hometown, where the least of the disasters, the Manchu Qing Dynasty seems to have persisted for a period of time after entering the customs, I really don't know what kind of sin I want to make in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not safe to be a rich second generation. "Young master, we're here." Shen Xing opened the curtain and looked at the starry sky, and sighed.
"Eh, young man, why did you come back by yourself, and you didn't call anyone to notify you, come and slow down and be careful." Shen Da was still a slut in the past, and he actually became a horse pier with his bow. Shen Xing pushed him away, jumped to the ground and stretched his waist, this day was really going to kill him, he just wanted to enter the door, but unexpectedly, a figure fell in front of him, and a pair of small hands grabbed his ankles tightly.
"Young master, please be merciful, don't send the slave to the brothel again, the slave will serve people...... this ...... As soon as Shen Xing wanted to say something, a few servants came up and took the girl to the side like a little chicken, "You can't do this little thing." β
Shen Da looked at the two house slaves and shouted, and then saw the red lady leading Lan'er to pull the woman to her side in a few angry breaths, and staring at him fiercely, the two house slaves were at a loss and simply lay on the ground without saying a word. What's the going on, there's still no end, I want to lie in bed and sleep peacefully now, can't such a small request be met!
"Are you still human? Just because people accidentally poured water on you, they were going to send people to a brothel, I thought you were different from other rich people, it turned out that you were all the same raccoon dog! "Good guy, this look is worthy of being a murderer, Shen Xing felt that his whole body was hairy after looking at each other.
"Madam, don't look at me like this, it's scary, I just entered the door and don't know what's going on, wait a minute, Shen Da, what's going on!" "This ...... This girl was originally bought in the store and planned to resell the brothel, and the housekeeper in the backyard saw that she was okay and temporarily arranged to serve the young master, but she didn't expect her to be clumsy, so she wanted to send it away quickly. β
"This!" Shen Xing didn't expect Jiangnan Restaurant to still do this business, although he understood that in this troubled world, human trafficking was quite common, as long as it was not forcibly seized from the government, he still had to protect it, because it was a legal business! But the matter is really related to himself, and he really can't accept it.
Forget it, Shen Da is very cheap anyway, let him take the blame for Young Master Ben. "You old thing, did Young Master Ben say that he sold it? Anyway, a living person is raised by his father and mother, you are so ruthless that you push people into the fire pit, you are trapped in this young master and unkind! β
Shen Xing was fighting while talking, although his hand was not heavy, Shen Da also rolled on the ground in pain. "Young master, young master is wrong and wrong, don't get tired when you dissipate your anger." Shen Xing grinned and glanced at the red lady, she snorted coldly and didn't seem to buy it.
"Girl, you are frightened, it is all your subordinates who make their own decisions, don't you go to your heart, is there anyone else in your family? I'll arrange for someone to take you back. Shen Xing said and walked to the little girl hiding behind the red lady, and the girl hurriedly knelt down again when she heard this.
Shen Xing also saw her appearance clearly at this moment, not to mention that the closed moon shy flower at least sank the fish and fallen leaves, although the appearance is small and obviously not grown, but it is the invincible little school flower of youth in the 21st century. Shen Da, Shen Da, you didn't suffer this beating in vain, are the two on your forehead blind? Also sell in the brothel and your grandma.
"Slave, surnamed Chen is a native of Changzhou, his parents died when he was a child, the small characters are round, and he was sold into the pear orchard in Suzhou by his uncle-in-law to live and learn art, and he was ...... a few days ago The slave didn't deliberately spill the water, he really hasn't done it since he was a child, the young master begs you not to send the slave away, although the slave can't serve people, but he can play the piano and sing songs...... "Wait, what do you say your name is, Chen Yuanyuan!" β
Shen Xingyi hugged her shoulders tightly with excited hands, but soon felt that it was inappropriate, timidly took it away, and then smiled embarrassedly, "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong, Young Master Ben just thinks she looks like a person, eh, don't kneel down and get up quickly." Mei Lan Zhuju invariably turned her face to the side, and the sound of "phew" was particularly harsh.
Chen Yuanyuan rubbed the corners of her clothes with her little hands and was a little flustered, she grew up in the pear orchard and saw the true colors of men, so she naturally knew what the fat young master's actions and eyes meant just now, but the young lady helped herself so much, she suddenly felt guilty, and the corners of her eyes were immediately full of tears, which was really heartbreaking. "Eh, why are you crying again, Young Master Ben just left you, and you will ...... in the future"
"From now on, follow me and teach me how to sing." The red lady left without looking back, Chen Yuanyuan pursed her lips and secretly glanced at Shen Xing, seeing that Shen Xing scratched her forehead and didn't say anything, she followed with a smile.
"Young master, don't be afraid, this girl is really handsome, and the little one didn't think much about it for a while, but now she understands the young master's intentions, she can't run away and get her over sooner or later."
"What is Young Master Ben afraid of! Shen Da, was the young master beaten too lightly just now, or are you really lacking heart, Lan'er, they are still there! Is this young master like that? Young master, the love of my life is Bijun, this heart can shine on the sun and the moon, Lan'er, Chun'er, you have to testify for this young master. β
"Hypocrisy!" Mei'er finished speaking and left, "shameless" Dong'er clenched her fists and left, "Coward!" "Little Bamboo stuck out his tongue and left." Shameless, if you say this, won't the young master marry a little wife in the future? Ghost believes! The rest of them followed Lan'er and left.
"You, you...... Master Ben, that's true love, Bijun, don't get me wrong! It was really exciting just now! In the backyard aisle, a group of women leaned forward and leaned back with a smile under the leadership of the red lady.
"The young master is really, what do you love or not, you still shout so loudly, it's ashamed." "I think he is afraid that our young grandmother will beat him and deliberately curry favor." "Lan'er, and you don't have to be big or small, you have to remember that it's different now than before, you have to obey the rules, Lan'er made a rash move tonight, and the matter was almost impossible to clean up, I also wonder how he didn't mention it, I thought he was going to be punished."
Listening to the words of the red lady, Lan'er whispered: "He is timid, and he is probably afraid that I will beat him." β
The women laughed again, and the red lady gently poked Lan'er's head with her finger, only Chen Yuanyuan listened to the clouds, thinking in his heart how they were so bold as maids, and they were not afraid of the master's punishment at all? Is it because of the protection of the young grandmother, I am really lucky to meet such a family.
"Why are you still here?" Shen Xing was ignored and ridiculed by several girls, and the trauma in his heart was really not small, and he just wanted to go back to the room to sleep, but he saw two girls in shabby clothes standing in the corner of the wall silently with a frightened face.
Take a closer look, although the faces of the two are covered with dirt, they are also very delicate, and the two most wonderful girls are actually twins. "Young master, they are the homeless people rescued by the young grandmother, maybe the young grandmother forgot it for a while, so the little one will send them to see the young grandmother and see how the young grandmother arranges."
Shen Xing's eyes rolled, he really had to be incompatible with this evil feudal society, isn't it not good.
"You'll serve tea and water." "Yes, we will also do laundry and cooking, hunt pigweed, and take care of my brother." Eh, the children of the poor are in charge of the house, "Then are you willing to serve the life of Young Master Ben?" The two girls hurriedly knelt down, "Yes, yes, dad and grandpa are starving to death, mom and brother are sick and begging the young master to save them." β
Shen Xing looked at the two girls and felt a pain in his heart, what kind of world is this. "Shen Da, you go and arrange it, the young master wants to sleep when he is tired, don't disturb when the sky falls."
