Hearing that Ye Hua was going to establish a military order, Guo Wei's face became even more ugly, he pulled Ye Hua in front of him, and said solemnly: "Nephew, you and I are relatives, and you are Brother Xing's life-saving benefactor, it stands to reason that the old man should give you the Ye family brocade clothes and food, glory and wealth." Whatever you do, don't care. But at present, internal and external troubles, the people's strength is withering, and the people's lives are extremely miserable. The old man is ready to cut the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, punish corrupt officials and corrupt officials, rest and recover from the people. At this time, no matter who obstructs the old man's national policy, he will be severely punished, do you understand? ”

Of course Ye Hua understood what Guo Wei meant, the problem was that he underestimated me too much!

"Guo Xianggong, don't you think that the little nephew will only take advantage of the tricks and bully others? Wouldn't the little nephew operate with integrity and make money with real skills? ”

Guo Wei didn't believe that he really knew how to do business, so he said casually: "Nephew, what are you going to do, do you have any ideas?" ”

"Yes!" Ye Hua said with a smile: "Trafficking goods, contracting projects, setting up workshops, selling goods, all in all, the little nephew must do things that are beneficial to the people's livelihood." will not bully others, let alone hoard and exploit the people. Guo Xianggong, if you don't believe in your little nephew, you should also believe in my grandmother, if you do something hurtful to heaven and reason, your grandmother will spank her! ”

Sure enough, it was a child, Guo Wei admonished: "What you said sounds good, but doing business is not an easy thing, you are so young, you should study hard and learn martial arts, don't think nonsense!" ”

After two lessons, and thinking that there was still government affairs to deal with, Guo Wei got up and left. can make Ye Hua anxious, he and Brother Guo Xing have been tied together, Brother Xing can't inherit Guo Wei's position, so Ye Hua won't do much in his career. Fortunately, Ye Hua didn't want to be too big an official, but if he didn't even let him do business, he could only study and practice martial arts with his head bored, stay at home, and study hard again for ten years, it would be better to kill him!

What's more, Ye Hua knows the future historical trend, and he must make himself important in order to protect himself and the people around him!

The real thing must be taken out, Ye Hua said loudly: "Guo Xianggong, I'm not cranky, just take the project of Xuandemen, I can do it!" ”

Guo Wei walked to the door, turned around and came back.

"Nephew, Taishi Feng has gone to welcome Liu Yun to succeed to the throne, after he enters Beijing, he will go to Xuande Gate and ascend the throne in Daqing Palace, it is a matter of the face of the court, the enthronement ceremony, I have already handed it over to Brother Xiufeng, you are a child, what are you fooling in?"

"I'm not fooling around, I can guarantee that the project cost will be reduced to one-tenth, and it will be completed within a month!"

"What?"

Guo Wei's eyes widened, and he looked surprised.

The so-called Xuande Gate project is to welcome the new monarch to enter Beijing and ascend the throne, renovate a section of the imperial road, and use it during the enthronement ceremony. Because all the white marble materials needed have to be transported from hundreds of miles away. And now it is a dry season, there is no way to transport it by boat, so you can only send people to open the mountain to take stones, and then carry them on your shoulders, transport them to Kaifeng with cattle and horses, and then hand them over to stonemasons for processing, and finally you can pave the royal road.

According to Wang Jun's calculations, at least 20,000 people and 200,000 yuan of expenses will be used to complete the project.

Guo Wei also made people estimate that 200,000 guan is indeed a bit much, but Wang Jun promised to complete it within 3 months, just before the enthronement ceremony, Guo Wei could only admit it.

But at this moment, Ye Hua swore to tell him that it would only take a month, as long as 20,000 yuan could be solved, Guo Wei really couldn't accept it. Could it be that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are not as smart as a child?

Guo Wei's face was serious, "Ye Hua, you have no jokes, what can you do?" ”

Ye Hua smiled, "The biggest cost of cultivating the Imperial Road is stone, as long as the stone problem is solved, of course you can save ninety percent of the expenses!" ”

"Hmph, it's easy to say, how can there be stones around Kaifeng?"

"Why not, there are so many on the royal road!"

The more Guo Wei listened, the more ridiculous it became, "The stones on the royal road are full of potholes, and because of the chaos, many of them have been damaged, so they have to be rebuilt with stones." ”

Guo Wei patiently explained to Ye Hua, this is also his son's benefactor, if it is replaced by someone else, Guo Wei is too lazy to take care of it, as a prisoner, he is busy I don't know how many times compared to before, especially internal and external troubles, the treasury is empty, where does he have idle time.

Guo Wei was about to leave again, Ye Hua was behind him, and suddenly said leisurely: "Guo Xianggong, what if you turn over the stone of the imperial road?" ”

"Flip! Turn it over? ”

Guo Wei turned his head suddenly, stared at Ye Hua, groaned for a while, and suddenly was pleasantly surprised, and said excitedly: "You tell me carefully, what should I do?" ”

"It's very simple, just turn out the original stone, carve the pattern on the back, and then re-pave it!"

Guo Wei took a breath and slapped his thigh hard, "Good boy, this trick is amazing!" ”

Guo Wei was really happy, he saved more than 100,000 yuan at once, almost enough for a month's military salary, he said sincerely: "Nephew, it's the old man who underestimated you, say, whatever reward you want, the old man will give it to you!" In this case, how about I allocate 30,000 yuan to you for the expenses of the mansion? ”

"Don't!"

Ye Hua said categorically: "Guo Xianggong, I said that I want to do business in a dignified manner, if you want to reward me, contract me the Yudao project, I will organize manpower construction, according to the quality of the construction period, and do the project well. ”

Guo Wei smiled, "Okay, have backbone!" Just do as you say! ”

Guo Wei returned home satisfied, but some people were not happy.

Wang Jun jumped like thunder, so angry that he smashed all the porcelain in the study, scolding while smashing.

"Good you shameless little bunny! There are so many gifts, even if the old man feeds them to the dog, he still has to wag his tail at the old man! You little name Hanako, black-hearted and shameless, unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, you dare to rob the old man of his wealth, sooner or later, the old man will pinch you to death!! ”

Although Wang Jun was angry, he really didn't dare to do anything to Ye Hua casually.

After all, compared to the Royal Road Project, the business of 200,000 yuan, Wang Jun cares more about Guo Xingge, Chai Rong is ambitious, he is in his prime, he is a ruthless stubble, let him succeed to the throne, there will never be good fruits to eat!

couldn't completely turn his face with Ye Hua, Wang Jun could only secretly confess, let a few quarries delay time, and at the same time ordered Kaifeng Mansion not to equip Ye Hua with enough people.

No one didn't expect that if the imperial road was not cultivated well, and the new monarch would be delayed on the throne, he would be able to dispose of Ye Hua openly, and by the way, he would take Guo Xingge in his hands.

Wang Jun made up his mind, and in a blink of an eye, the one-month construction period had arrived.

Originally, it was a royal road project, and there was no need for the privy envoy to come in person, but Wang Jun came early in order to see the joke. When he arrived, he found that several people had already arrived.

Among them are Guo Wei's great strategist Wei Renpu, as well as Chai Rong, behind Chai Rong, followed by a strong man, who is Zhao Kuangyin.

Seeing that Wang Jun was coming, Chai Rong just nodded, and Wei Renpu took the initiative to salute, chatted a few words, and closed his mouth.

Wang Jun snorted, before he became the prince, he dared not to look at the old man in his eyes, it was really hateful!

He was so angry that he could only sprinkle it on Ye Hua, Wang Jun pointed to the patches of grass and bamboo mats in front of him, and scolded angrily: "What? If you don't finish it, do you use these to cover up your shame for fear that others will see it? The old man has long known that if there is no hair on his mouth, he will not be able to do things firmly! How can such a big thing be handed over to a milk doll? ”

Wang Jun took a sip and roared angrily: "Don't tear off the grass yet, let the old man see how much worse it is!" ”

The men under him rushed forward like wolves and tigers, tore hard, and the patches of grass fell down, revealing their true faces inside.

The neat royal road and exquisite carvings appear in front of you.

Ye Hua was sitting on a chair, drinking tea leisurely, and said to Wang Jun: "Wang Xianggong, come and take two steps, after acceptance, only the emperor can walk on the imperial road, and when the courtiers leave, they should cut off their heads!" ”
