"How much did you earn," Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Fan, with a magical look, and asked, completely lacking the relaxed and sad appearance that had just relaxed from Zhang Juzheng's lecture, and looked full of energy.

Obviously, Zhang Fan's words touched a nerve somewhere in him.

Zhang Fan looked very indifferent, or it can be said that he was already prepared to face this situation before coming here today, and it is obvious that Zhu Yijun's appearance is no different from what Zhang Fan expected.

"Your Majesty didn't hear it wrong," Zhang Fan said with a smile on his face and an extremely relaxed look, "a total of sixteen thousand five hundred taels of gold, and a lot of money,"

Hearing the affirmative answer, Zhu Yijun's eyes widened.

"This ...... This ......" Zhu Yijun said a little hesitantly, "This last time, wasn't it only five taels and one, according to that price, these three thousand muskets should be fifteen thousand taels of gold, how can there be two thousand five hundred taels more now?"

"Your Majesty, do you remember what Wechen said to Your Majesty last time," Zhang Fan said, "The three thousand muskets are divided into two batches, and they are not just to be sold to the same person, so Wechen has divided people into two ways this time, all the way to meet our old customers, all the way to meet our old customers' enemies, it just so happens that both sides are now difficult times, although the number of guns we transported over is not much, but they are all rushing to ask for it, Weichen's people just slightly raised the price, and they rose by one or two gold."

"Now, Wechen's people have returned, and the gold has also been shipped back, no, Wechen came here to send money to His Majesty,"

"Oh, where is the money," Zhu Yijun was not only full of eyes at this time, but also a little uneasy in his look, "Where is it, let me take a look,"

As soon as Zhu Yijun's words came out, Zhang Fan was really a little dumbfounded, to be honest, Zhu Yijun loves money, although only Zhang Fan knows about this matter now, but he never thought that Zhu Yijun's love for money has reached such a point of madness.

Moreover, what Zhu Yijun said is really a bit too cheap, as an emperor, he actually has to see this money to be believed, which also makes Zhang Fan have a new understanding of him, thinking about it, with Zhang Fan's weight in Zhu Yijun's mind, he is still not at ease, it can be seen that Zhu Yijun's love for money has reached a certain point.

However, Zhang Fan didn't despise him, nor did he blame him for anything, in Zhang Fan's opinion, the reason why Zhu Yijun is like this is also quite related to his age, after all, Zhu Yijun at this age, and Zhu Yijun, who has just sat on the throne for less than a year, although he was born in the royal family and has received this kind of education since he was a child, but at this moment Zhu Yijun does not have the bearing of being an emperor, and he will seem uneasy about some small things.

"Your Majesty," Zhang Fan said with a look of embarrassment, "There are not many people who know about this matter, at the beginning, after His Majesty's holy decree was issued, the silver used by the Ministry of Industry to make those muskets was also taken out by His Majesty himself from the inner treasury, and before Wei Chen came, he had already handed over the money to the father-in-law who was in charge of the inner treasury in the palace, and he thought that Wei Chen got it from where to honor His Majesty, if His Majesty had to check it at this time, I am afraid that it was not very good, in case it was noticed by someone who cares, And if you guess something from that, that's not good,"

"This ...... This is also true," Zhu Yijun heard Zhang Fan say this, and thought about it, and it was really like this, after all, Zhang Fan would not lie to him, and he also felt that he was a little too careful, besides, although this matter is profitable, it is still illegal and cannot be known to outsiders, in case Zhu Yijun makes any strange moves, so that some well-intentioned people notice something, then it is very likely that this matter will be exposed, after all, there are suddenly more than 10,000 taels in the emperor's inner treasury, Nearly 20,000 taels of gold, that's a lot of money.

At that time, if the whole story of the matter is found out, this black cauldron will definitely be carried by Zhang Fan, Zhu Yijun of course does not want Zhang Fan to suffer any crime because of this, but compared to Zhang Fanlai, he is more concerned that in that case, he will not be able to earn this money in the future, which is definitely something that will make him very uncomfortable for Zhu Yijun.

Of course, although Zhu Yijun loves money very much and loves to make money, he is definitely not a stingy emperor, from the day Zhang Fan's children turned one year old, and not long ago Zhang Fanna married Zhaoxue's wedding banquet, Zhu Yijun all sent people to express his concern on his behalf, and not only that, Zhu Yijun sent quite rich royal gifts every time, which were definitely valuable things, and even sent money directly.

It can be seen that from this aspect, Zhu Yijun is indeed good at doing business, he knows that only by giving returns, then the people below will help you make money again, after all, that way can you develop in the long run.

Now, he naturally won't forget this stubble.

"Well, this time the teacher and the teacher's subordinates have also worked hard, and they have to hide it for me," Zhu Yijun said, "When the teacher leaves, take a thousand from the inner treasury, no, take away five thousand taels of gold, and take it as my reward,"

Zhang Fan was a little surprised when he heard Zhu Yijun say this, he naturally knew that Zhu Yijun would not pick the door in this kind of thing, but he never thought that Zhu Yijun would be so generous, and with this sentence, nearly one-third of the gold was rewarded.

"Your Majesty, isn't this too much," Zhang Fan asked, he didn't care about the amount of money, after all, the year he came back from Jiangnan, how much money Longqing gave him, to be honest, it has been more than a year, even with the Zhang family's use, as well as the Zhao family's alms, all added up to only a little bit, the Zhang family's daily consumption is very saving, although the monthly money given to the subordinates in the family on weekdays, although compared to other people's families, and even the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace The monthly income is also more, But it's not too much.

As for Zhang Fan's wives and concubines like Ru Xue and others, they don't like the wives and concubines of other big families every month, they receive the monthly money, but they want to eat it if they want to, which Zhang Fan has already explained, but obviously, whether it is Ru Xue or Zhaoxue, Yingyue or Luo Ling'er are not masters who like to go shopping all day long and spend money, even if they need to buy some rouge gouache, or red satin cloth or something, they are all very purposeful, not blind, of course, occasionally see something and the night on a whim is naturally there, But that kind of situation is really rare.

Especially things like jewelry, Zhang Fan didn't mention it, but no matter which woman in the family, it doesn't seem to be particularly preferenced.

In addition, now, the world is peaceful, and the border passes are also peaceful, and there are basically few people who flee from famine and are hungry, and the Zhao family asks people to give porridge outside the city, and most of the objects are just beggars.

All in all, according to the Zhang family's current spending model, as long as it is not Zhang Fan's son and grandson, there is something to the bottom of the loser, this money is enough for his Zhang family to take comfortably for hundreds of years, maybe it sounds too sensational, but this is the case, and I don't want to think about how much Longqing gave Zhang Fan at the beginning.

Therefore, Zhang Fan didn't take the money that Zhu Yijun wanted to give him at this time, besides, this time it was not Zhang Fan himself who ran errands, but those under him, so Zhang Fan planned to distribute the money to them, of course, he couldn't give it all to them, after all, this was too much, Zhang Fan felt that he could control himself, but he didn't dare to guarantee that other people could also control himself, in case those people under his command had a lot of gold and silver in their hands, something would happen, he didn't dare to guarantee it.

"Wechen has thanked Your Majesty here," Zhang Fan said to Zhu Yijun.

"What's the point of thanks," Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said, "Besides, although this money is easy to make, it also requires people to run around, I know this in my heart,"

"Your Majesty can think like this, Weichen is really happy in his heart," Zhang Fan said.

"Well," nodded and accepted Zhang Fan's praise, Zhu Yijun suddenly said, "Since this business is easy to do, then, teacher, let's see when we will do it again,"

It seems that Zhu Yijun really fell into the eyes of money.

"This matter is not busy for now," Zhang Fan said, "After all, we are selling muskets, and it is not good for the people there to see that something is wrong, and besides, it is the beginning of the year, and this merchant ship is going to sea again,"

"Well, what the teacher said is," Zhu Yijun said, "The teacher mentioned last time that it is not easy for those people to go to sea, and I can't always take advantage of them and use their ships to do business, right?"

"Your Majesty wants to add a few more ships and go to sea with them," Zhang Fan asked.

"Not bad,"

"In this case, it will be Your Majesty's own expenses," Zhang Fan said, "After all, this matter is more important than buying muskets for those Fusang people,"

Of course, the emperor does business, how can he say it.

But if he didn't say it, then Zhu Yijun would have no way to use his emperor's rights to mobilize ships, so he could only buy them at his own expense.

But obviously, Zhu Yijun has been prepared for this for a long time.

"The price of a treasure ship is about 300,000 taels," Zhu Yijun said, "Now in my inner library, there are about more than two million taels that the teacher brought back this time, so I will buy three ships, and the remaining silver, loaded with artillery, is more than enough as the capital,"

"Your Majesty is sure," Zhang Fan asked.

"This ......" Zhu Yijun looked like a pain on his face when he heard Zhang Fan say this, but soon, he made up his mind, "Didn't the teacher say it, give ...... I can't bear the child, I can't trap the wolf, I have to give it a go this time,"
