Chapter 179: Tough Eighth Elder Brother

Thinking of the amazing insight and abundant financial resources of the old fourteen, Yinxi was also secretly depressed, but, after so many years of hard work and efforts, he was not willing to be in vain, as the so-called heart of the Yellow River does not die, do not fight to the last moment, he will not die, Lao Jiu can be said to be the most staunch supporter of the eight parties, and now even he has shaken his confidence, Yinxi is immediately vigilant in his heart. [-No pop-ups, permanent URL:,!]

Smiling slightly, Yinxi said with confidence: "The vision and financial resources of the fourteenth brother are indeed not said, no one can match them, but if you talk about means, he is not as good as the prince, after all, the foundation of the fourteenth party is too shallow, and it is difficult to become a climate without a few years of integration." As for Huang Ama's support, it is also at this time, at that time, Huang Ama is playing balance, whoever is weak, he will support whom, this point, there is no need to worry at all.

Now the second waste prince is already on the bow, and the emperor Ama Spring and Autumn is high, the position of the prince will definitely not be vacant, now, it is the last opportunity for us to fight hard, the one who travels a hundred miles is half ninety, and at the last critical juncture, there must be no slackness, let alone discouragement, and the following officials are all staring at us.

Although the fourteenth brother is in the same party as us, we still have to fight for what should be fighting, the new prince has not been decided for a day, we have to work hard for a day, so many years of hard work, how can we give up easily? ”

Yinyu's heart shook when he heard this, and he also smiled and said: "It's still the starling who can see it through, and I have confidence in my heart when I say this."

Yinzhen is the first day of the first month of the first day of the departure of Beijing, at this time only came back, away from home has been nearly a year, the county palace has been reported a few days earlier, the whole house is jubilant, busy, the palace inside and outside the clean up of a new look. The chief eunuch Bao Fuquan was even more energetic to check around, since the branch came out, he respected Yinzhen's meaning, the servants and maids inside and outside the house are all from all over the world, and they are all poor families.

Yinzhen is not short of money, the palace should never be deducted, if the Fu Jinhai is gentle, to be generous, a should be the next people to enter the palace are all grateful, Bao Fu is clear about Yinzhen's requirements, especially in terms of safety and loyalty, more than two years of operation, the entire palace is already a needle can not be inserted, water can not enter.

Yinzhen returned home, several Fu Jin came to invite An to see the ceremony, after a little cold noise, and asked about the children's homework, and then went to bathe, came out to accompany Fu Jin Hai if he didn't say a few words, he heard the report, and the household department Shangshu Ka Min Tu asked to see.

"Take him to the West Flower Hall, and I'll come later." Yinzhen got up as he said and said to Hai Ruo: "I came back this time, and I don't expect to leave until ...... year."

Hai Ruo had already gotten up, squatted down and said, "The prince's official affairs are important, Hai Ruo respectfully sends the prince."

Ka Min Tu actually didn't have anything to do, firstly, Yinzhen returned to Beijing, he had to come to visit, and secondly, when he heard the news that Yinzhen was punished for kneeling at Jingyunmen, he was quite worried, so he hurried over. When Yinzhen entered the door and saw his calm face, Ka Mintu put his mind at ease and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for a salute.

Zhang Pengxi and Ka Mintu can be said to be veterans of the 14th Party, Yinzhen encouraged them warmly, and then said: "This king wants to recruit people when he returns to Beijing this time, do you have candidates with outstanding integrity, conduct, and talent?"

As soon as he heard that the 14th Party was going to recruit more henchmen, Ka Mintu was also very excited, and hurriedly bowed and said: "Back to the prince, after the lower officials returned to Beijing from Jiangnan, they and Zhang Xiang always paid attention to it, and they also fell in love with some officials, leaving them for the prince's decision, and the lower officials will be sent tomorrow."

"Yes, that's good." Yinzhen nodded slightly, "You and Zhang Pengxi can be described as the leaders of the Fourteenth Party, and they are also ministers of the imperial court, you must lead by example in everything, now that the situation has changed, you must be cautious everywhere, always be careful, so as not to be attacked, if there is a shortfall, you must also fill it back as soon as possible, do not leave any handles, if you need silver, just talk to me." ”

Ka Mintu's heart was hot, this master really didn't make a mistake, and hurriedly said: "Xiaguan Xie Wangye's love, the prince can rest assured, although Xiaguan does not dare to say that he is as honest as water, he abides by his duty and never greeds ink, and Xiaguan will definitely remember the teachings of the prince."

As soon as Kamintu was sent away, Bao Fuquan came in to report, "Shi Shilun, the household servant, is asking to see him outside." ”

Shi Shilun? Yinzhen couldn't help but smile slightly, "Bring him over." ”

Shi Shilun is Kangxi personally stuffed into the 14th Party, not only in charge of the promotion of drought-resistant and high-yield crops or the deputy chief supervisor of the General Administration of Customs, but also responsible for the construction of agricultural colleges in Beijing, Yinzhen can be regarded as his top boss, Yinzhen returned to Beijing, according to the rules of officialdom, he naturally wanted to visit as soon as possible.

Shi Shilun in the forty-fifth to forty-ninth years of Kangxi, Ren Shuntianfu Yin, and Yinzhen have a lot of intersections, they are very familiar with each other, Yinzhen knows his temperament, and when he sees him come in, he smiled and said: "The first ugly man of the Qing Dynasty is here."

Shi Shilun never thought that he was ugly, and said with a smile: "After the visit of the lower officials, it is better to leave early, so as not to affect the prince's meal." As he spoke, please greet him.

When he got up, Yinzhen smiled and said: "The appearance is ugly and the heart is not ugly, how can the master feel disgusted?" The human-faced beast-hearted person is really disgusting. ”

Shi Shilun smiled and said: "The prince's words can be said to the hearts of his subordinates, Ming'er's subordinates will ask someone to make a sign and write the prince's words on it, in the future, whoever dares to laugh at his subordinates will show the brand."

"Hehe, that dare is good, in this way, the master will become your protector." Yinzhen stretched out his hand to give up his seat, and ordered someone to serve tea, and when he sat down, Fang Han said with a smile: "During this time, look around to check the harvest of drought-resistant and high-yield crops, you are tired, you are old, you have to take it easy, this king will have a lot of things to rely on you in the future."

When it comes to business, Shi Shilun is much more serious, and he bowed in the chair and said: "Xie Wang Ye is worried, although he is tired, but his subordinates are comfortable, the crops recommended by the prince are indeed high yields, once they are familiar with their habits, the yield can be higher, the prince's move, the merit is immeasurable, and it is really an honor for his subordinates to take care of this matter."

Yinzhen nodded, said: "The northern provinces have more spring drought, these three crops are drought resistant, promote appropriately, and can also reduce famine, although the yield of corn is not very high, but drought tolerance, can be mixed with staple grains to eat, is the main miscellaneous grain, sweet potato yield is the highest, if the method of planting, one acre and ten stones, is not a problem, its use is even wide, edible, wine, soup, make vermicelli, make snacks, make feed can be. This king specially wants to remind you that the potato, the yield of this thing is acceptable, the edibility is high, and it is also very nourishing, and it can be used as a vegetable and a miscellaneous grain, so it is necessary to focus on promotion. ”

"My subordinates respect the orders of the prince." Shi Shilun hurriedly bowed and said, he came to visit this time, the main purpose is to fight the autumn wind here in Yinzhen, Kangxi ordered him to build an agricultural college in Beijing, although he allocated silver according to Jiangning Agricultural College, but the price of goods in the capital is expensive, it is really a little tight, Yinzhen is a famous financier, and he advocated it, of course he wants to come to him, seeing that it is an opportunity, Shi Shilun hurriedly continued: "The emperor ordered his subordinates to establish an agricultural college in Beijing, the capital is expensive, and the prince can strongly support his subordinates."

"No problem." Yinzhen said without hesitation, if the grain in the north does not keep up, this population will never be able to reproduce quickly, and the ocean-going fleet is about to take shape, and he is also anxious, "How much is the difference, you make a list, and this king will allocate it to you." ”

Shi Shilun didn't expect Yinzhen to be so refreshing, and he was overjoyed, and immediately said with a smile: "Lord Wang, the capital is now being renovated outside the city, and the labor is very expensive, and the price of materials is also thirty percent more expensive than in previous years, and the subordinates have already drawn up a list, and there is still a gap of 45,000 taels." As he spoke, he pulled out a slip from his sleeve.

"Okay, you old Shi, come prepared, I said how soon I went back to the house, you came here, it turned out to be a special trip." Yinzhen stretched out his hand to take the list and said with a chuckle.

Shi Shilun was already ugly, and it was even more ugly when he smiled, "The prince is laughing, his subordinates are here for a special visit, and the fate is just incidental, incidental, hehe." ”

Yinzhen glanced at the list slightly, and said with a smile, "Yes, this king will dial you as many as possible, but the speed of the project must be hurried." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." Shi Shilun smiled and said: "The subordinates are doing things, although the prince can rest assured."

Early the next morning, before dawn, Yinzhen was woken up by Bao Fuquan outside the door.

After Hairuo woke up, he also hurriedly got up, a few maids had already been waiting outside, and when they heard the movement, they came in to serve Yinzhen to wash and put on court clothes, and four or five people were busy around Yinzhen for a quarter of an hour, and Yinzhen packed up and went out.

Walking all the way, when I arrived at Xihua Gate, Xihua Gate has gathered a lot of people, Yinzhen out of the sedan chair, not a trembling, there is a stove in the sedan chair, hot and drying, but the outside is a thief cold, open his eyes to look, see a group of brothers and ministers of the ministry each three or five groups of idle smoking, a little hesitation, he stood reserved, too lazy to greet a group of brothers.

However, the twelfth elder brother Yinqi saw him at a glance, leaned over and said, "The fourteenth brother is here, and he returned to Beijing yesterday?"

Yinzhen smiled and said, "I've seen the twelfth brother, it's the capital I went back to yesterday."

Yinqi smiled and said: "The fourteenth brother has been in Beijing for two years, and the 'Four Heng' shares given before have never had the opportunity to say thank you in person, and today, the twelfth brother will say thank you in person."

Seeing him talk about this, Yinzhen couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Some small things, it's not worth the twelfth brother, among the elder brothers, the eldest brother, the twelfth brother, and the thirteenth brother inherit the fourteenth love."

Hearing this, Yinqi couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, the shares worth 500,000 silver were given away, and he didn't even say thank you, it was indeed a bit excessive, and his thanks were only said after two years, how could it not be embarrassing? It's no wonder that after selling his shares in ocean trading this year, he didn't even say a word.

Seeing Yinzhen's embarrassed appearance, Yinzhen couldn't help but laugh, this twelfth brother was a sincere person, and hurriedly diverted the topic and said, "I heard that this year, the fifth brother, the seventh brother, and the three of you donated a lot of silver for disaster relief?" ”

As soon as Yinqi heard this, he sighed lightly before he said: "The prince and the starling are fighting, we will suffer, fortunately there is the dividend of the 'Four Hengs', otherwise it would really be a seller."

Yinzhen knew what he meant when he heard it, and chuckled: "Next time the fourteenth makes a donation, you just have to donate, and the fourteenth will help you make up for it."

"Hehe, that relationship is good, Yinqi will thank the fourteenth brother first." Yinqi chuckled.
