Chapter 567: An Old Friend's Gift

Although Hu Ye has been in Nanjing for several years, his communication is not too wide, and he only deals with those people, and many people in the court know him, and they also started from Zhu Di's enthronement ceremony. After all, during the period of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunwen, Hu Ye went to court only a handful of times.

So this time Hu Ye's wedding, there were not too many officials present, that is, some people who dealt with him. For example, Wang Wei and Lu Chun.

Although there are not too many officials who come, all of them are great gifts.

For example, Wang Wei's goods, his unsuccessful son, since he was sent to the academy, has grown too much, if it weren't for the sixth in the family, Wang Wei would have wanted his youngest son to be in charge. And he also wanted to send several other sons to the academy as well, but unfortunately he was too old, and they were all about to turn thirty, so Hu Ye didn't accept those.

So when Hu Ye got married, he sent a congratulatory gift of 1,000 taels of silver. Maybe this thousand taels is nothing to Hu Ye, but for Wang Wei at that time, it was a few years of money, which can be described as a light courtesy.

As for Lu Chun, he can be regarded as having helped Hu Ye a few times, and he is still Hu Ye's top boss, but Hu Ye has not gone to Ying Tianfu to report on his work until now, which makes Lu Chun quite complaining, but Hu Ye has another identity, Fan Changbo, who is older than him, Ying Tianfu Yin, and he had to turn a blind eye to it, and he also sent a thousand taels of silver.

Seeing Hu Ye looking at the account book again, Yin Changlong walked away slowly, Hu Ye was still curious about why this goods went away, so he saw Yin Changlong's congratulatory gift.

"One hundred taels of silver, and a pair of calligraphy and paintings." Hu Ye frowned, this was the congratulatory gift that Yin Changlong gave him.

For this congratulatory gift, Hu Ye suddenly felt stuffed in his heart. Hu Ye knows about Yin Changlong's past, this goods have been stored in the mansion, eating him and drinking him, although Hu Ye talks about it. At that time, he never blamed Yin Changlong, because he knew that Yin Changlong handed over all the money to Xinchang Village, so that the people there could develop the village.

Now that he is married, this product has actually given one hundred taels of silver, although it may be the least among all the congratulatory gifts, but Hu Ye knows that this must be the one that has been saved by frugality, and it is the heaviest among these congratulatory gifts.

Looking at the back of the goods leaving, Hu Ye suddenly felt that his brother seemed to have one more.

"Old money. Remember to hang Brother Yin's calligraphy and painting in front of the hall. Hu Ye turned his head and said something to Lao Qian, and then continued to look at it.

Let's not talk about a few gentlemen, naturally I want to give a big gift, after all, Zhu Di rewarded their father a lot last time, so he almost didn't send a maid to Hu Ye to sleep.

It is said that the monk Daoyan also came to give a gift, and it was not a big gift, but a hand-copied Buddhist scripture after this product came to Nanjing.

Hu Ye knew that this was a great contributor to the appeasement. He didn't ask for all the rewards that Zhu Di gave him, but he rang the bell in a temple and chanted the Buddha, and Zhu Di summoned him. He changed into official clothes and went to court, and after the court, he changed into a monk's robe and continued to chant the scriptures.

"That's a big cultural relic, someone will study Yao Guangxiao's words in the future. There are certainly many clues to be seen in that scripture. Hu Ye sighed, although it was not silver, it was much more important than money at that time.

Speaking of money. The most I'm afraid is He Da Fat, there is nothing else in this goods, but he is rich, and he directly sent 50,000 taels of silver tickets, which can be described as wealthy. Because under Hu Ye's guidance, now in Hebei, Shandong and Beiping, almost half of the flow of goods has to pass through the hands of his firm, and during the Jingjing disaster, his firm did a lot of good deeds, and the people trusted their firm, and he now has tens of thousands of silver every day, not to mention fixed assets, so he has to curry favor with Hu Ye to see if he can expand his industry again.

"Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, this thing has to be beaten, otherwise the emperor will not be able to stand it, Shen Wansan back then is a living example." Hu Ye shook his head, presumably businessmen have this attribute, Shen Wansan was rich back then, and Zhu Yuanzhang had looked for him in trouble. After Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to train the troops and the army to change clothes, Shen Wansan volunteered to contract all the expenses of Zhu Yuanzhang's army, which angered Zhu Yuanzhang.

Think about it, if a merchant controls the supply of the army, can he rest assured that he is the emperor? So Shen Wansan's fate can be imagined, since this big fat man has a friendship with himself, he can't let this thing end up with Shen Wansan, right?

Next are a few old men in the academy, and it is not a big gift, Zhang Yuchu said that the Nanhua Sutra he lent to Hu Ye is not needed, it should be regarded as a congratulatory gift. In fact, not to mention this goods, Hu Ye forgot that there was still such a thing, and he didn't even know where to lose the goods for himself in the Analects, it seems that he has to find a time to take a look, otherwise the old boy of Kong Ne won't be able to wait much longer, and he doesn't know how many years there are still to live.

Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian didn't send anything else, but they gave a bottle of medicine, and it was not written in the account book what kind of medicine it was, but looking at Lao Qian's lewd eyes, Hu Ye guessed that it must be a tonic that strengthens yin and replenishes yang.

"Go and throw the medicine to Lao Tzu immediately, Lao Tzu is still young, what are you doing with those for Lao Tzu." Hu Ye said angrily, these two old men also lived to the belly of a dog, do we look like that kind of powerless person?

Ruan An sent a model, which turned out to be a model of the entire Qingtian Comprehensive Community, and there are many things that have not been built, all of which are on the model, which is also a good thing.

The public lost himself and was also bleeding profusely, and he actually gave Hu Ye the trap bird that he regarded as a treasure, as long as Hu Ye promised to send the trap bird to the sky in the future. Hu Ye sighed, it seems that Gong Yi regards the academy as a second home, and he is not ready to go back to the hermitage.

Zhuge Yu didn't send anything, but took away a big red envelope from Hu Ye, who made this product a good minister?

The last big head is royal, after all, before Zhu Di gave the marriage, Yingxue had already been given the title of Princess Pingyang, think about the princess getting married, can there be less dowry? In addition to some treasured items in the palace, there is also a mansion built in Taiping Fanchang County.

"It's still good." Hu Ye smiled, although Zhu Di's goods often cheated himself, he was not ambiguous at that critical time, and built a mansion for himself in his own fiefdom, I am afraid that it is the treatment that only vassal kings have.

"Less... Master. ”

When Hu Ye finished reading the account book, Lao Qian said with some twist.

"What are you doing, a big man is so twisted." Hu Ye glanced at Lao Qian.

"Young Master. This is a little bit of the mind of our subordinates, it's too little, it's not on the stage, so I don't remember..."Lao Qian said and took out a few silver tickets from his arms, and there were several names written on them, Hu Ye could see that there was the name of Lao Qian, the name of Zou Kai, and the name of Laifu.

"What? You're going to give me a gift too? Hu Ye said.

"Young master, don't be too little, this is a little bit of our heart." Old Qian said with a smile.

"You losers. Isn't your money my money? This is not the wages I have paid you, and will you pay me back? Hu Ye said angrily, he wanted to kick it over, but he thought that they were all kind, so he couldn't bear to put his foot down, "Take it back for me, you can do things with peace of mind, it is the biggest congratulatory gift for me, if you dare to do it again in the future." Be careful to sweep you out of the house. If you look at Saren, you will know how to do it. ”

Old Qian wanted to stop talking, he also knew that Hu Ye was not disgusted with money, after all, he had been with Hu Ye for so many years. I still know Hu Ye well. In the end, he stuffed the silver ticket back into his arms, ready to return it to Zou Kai and Laifu.

"By the way, young master, there was a strange person who also came to give gifts yesterday." After retracting the silver ticket, Lao Qian suddenly said.

"Weirdos?" Hu Ye asked curiously.

"Not bad. It's a weirdo, I've never seen it before, but the back is a little rickety. He is also seventy or eighty years old. I thought it was a character on the rivers and lakes, so I went to ask Mr. Gongyi, and he also said that he didn't know him. Old Qian replied.

"Don't even know Mr. Gongyi? Or a rickety old man? Hu Ye frowned, why didn't he remember that there was such a person? What did he send? ”

"We don't know each other, it seems to be a bear skin, which was much bigger than a dog bear skin at that time, and it was still snow-white, and the young master said that the skin was worth tens of thousands of taels, and he also asked the young master where he met the master." Old Qian said.

"White bearskin?" Hu Ye's face turned pale when he heard this, as if he had thought of something, and immediately said hurriedly, "Quick, take me over to have a look!" ”

Lao Qian saw that Hu Ye was a little anxious, until Hu Ye was eager to appreciate the treasure, and immediately took Hu Ye to the warehouse.

Walking into the warehouse, Hu Ye was not interested in anything else, and directly asked Lao Qian to withdraw the bear skin.

"Young master, this is the bear skin sent by that strange man." Lao Qian took out a snow-white skin from a box, which was large enough to wrap Lao Qian in his whole person.

Hu Ye took the bear skin and looked at it, and he had already confirmed the guess in his heart, this was a polar bear skin! And it is a well-preserved skin, looking at the incision above, it is definitely cut with a sharp weapon, otherwise it will not be so neat!

"Old Qian, let me ask you, when we returned to Beiping five years ago, you went to hunt down Yin Yangzi, but you saw his corpse with your own eyes?" Hu Ye looked at Lao Qian with a stern face.

"Five years ago? That day I went down with a group of men to hunt down the cliff, searching all over the cliff, and finally found a corpse in a river below the cliff, full of bullet wounds. Lao Qian recalled the scene of the year and said.

"All I ask you is if you saw him die with your own eyes! Can you confirm that it is the corpse of Yin Yang Zi! See his face! Hu Ye asked loudly.

Lao Qian saw that Hu Ye's face was so ugly, and his heart was also tight, and he also realized that something was wrong.

"When we found the corpse, his head was unrecognizable from the beast's gnawing, and I only looked at the bullet holes on his body—" Old Qian said with a slight stammer.

"It's broken!"

Hu Ye slapped his thigh, knowing that Yin Yang Zi was not dead, and he had already arrived in Nanjing!

"You go to the academy and invite Mr. Gongyi to come to the house! Remember, don't let anyone else know about it! Hu Ye threw the polar bear skin and went out immediately.

"Young master, where are you going! Danger out there! Old Qian yelled.

"I'm going to go to the palace!" Hu Ye said in an almost out-of-control voice. (To be continued......)
