The idea of building a leopard house obviously made Zhu Houzhao proud, and in order to let his good friends also get benefits, he generously gave this credit to Qin Kan.

It's a strange kid who is significantly more interested in being a zoo director than being an emperor.

Qin Kan's face was a little green, he knew very well that this was not a credit, if it was his idea to build a leopard house by Zhu Houzhao, a civil and military knowledge of the Manchu Dynasty, he would definitely rise up and tear him to pieces.

Qin can't afford this credit, and he resolutely can't accept it.

Qin Kan quickly got up, bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the minister doesn't dare to accept this merit." ”

"Say it's yours to come up with the idea, be polite to me." Zhu Houzhao grinned so much that he didn't have a straight shape.

Fart kid, who's being polite to you......

With a whole expression, Qin Kan solemnly bowed his hand: "Your Highness, how could the minister come up with such a subtle idea?" Your Highness, you forgot, this is what Gonggong Liu came up with for you! ”

"Liu Jin? Are you sure? ”

"Of course."

Zhu Houzhao snorted, it's okay, if you don't want to appreciate it, let Liu Jin accept it.

The kitchen of Qin's mansion burned, and Zhu Houzhao's dishes couldn't be cooked, so he begged Qin Kan to tell him more about the strange things outside, but Qin Kan didn't agree, saying too many of these things will inevitably cause the impression of being a horse, and forget it after seeing it, so let's wait for Zhu Houzhao to digest it.

"Your Highness, the minister has something on his mind today, so let's talk about it another day."

"What's on your mind?"

"Of course, the heart of a married man is lack of money...... Qin Kan stared at Zhu Houzhao expectantly, if this generous crown prince is still a human being, he should follow the sentence "I will reward you" or "Go to my East Palace to get it, take what you like".

Obviously, Qin Kan overestimated Zhu Houzhao's sophistication.

Zhu Houzhao sighed faintly: "It turns out that everyone has their own thoughts in the world, and I am the same." My mind is that the scholars have given me half a month off, but I have a lot of homework to do......"

After speaking, Zhu Houzhao smiled: "No matter, let's play for a few days first." Qin Kan, are you having any fun? ”

"When you are bored, in addition to playing cards and fighting landlords, what is happier than this? I respectfully ask Your Highness to play two ...... together"

"Okay, just fight the landlord!"

"Is it okay to play a round of one hundred and two?"

"No problem."

"Don't throw cards and throw a tantrum on the table, otherwise no one will dare to play with you in the future."

“…… I try my best. ”

…………

…………

The three of them chatted while playing cards, this time Zhu Houzhao's temper was well controlled, and he was probably so familiar with Qin Kan, no matter how bad the cards were, they had to be restrained.

"One-on-five! Qin Kan. Are those rare and exotic beasts you mentioned far away from our Ming Dynasty? ”

"One against seven! Very far away, Your Highness, this world is too big for you to imagine. Our Ming Dynasty is only a small part of this world. ”

Xu Peng said: "A pair of hooks!" Your Highness. Didn't the Three Treasure Eunuchs in the Yongle period go to the West seven times? He should have left a lot of charts and records of local customs and products. ”

Zhu Houzhao snorted: "The Three Treasure Eunuchs have been to the West seven times, and there has been a lot of controversy between the DPRK and China in the past hundred years, some people say that it is to promote the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, and some people say that it is the emperor who works hard for his own face. Since the imperial court has forbidden the sea for more than 100 years, what is the point of going to the West, and aren't the two contradictory? So last year, Liu Daxia, the old man of the Ministry of War, burned all the charts and records that had been preserved for a hundred years, and said that he wanted to break the thoughts of the emperors of the later generations of the Ming Dynasty. I had to let it go. ”

Qin Kan's hand holding the card froze for a moment, and he sighed with regret on his face: "It's really ...... Damn it! Ignorance! ”

Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju looked at him in amazement, they didn't expect the gentle Qin Kan to use foul words for this trivial matter.

Qin Kan's mood suddenly became extremely bad.

Thinking of Zheng He's poor life's strength, he went to the West seven times at the behest of Emperor Yongle, and even died on the way, carefully constructed sea charts, routes, and records of customs and products in various places. It can be said that he has worked hard all his life, but he was burned by Liu Daxia, an ignorant old man. It would be a precious legacy if it could be left behind and passed on to future generations.

Although these things had nothing to do with Qin Kan, and even though he was just a small military attache with a small personal voice, he still felt a burst of anger for no reason.

Zhu Houzhao is not wrong, Liu Daxia is really an old man, he does some things that mislead the country and the people with the face of a loyal minister, and he thinks he has raised his head proudly, thinking that he has done a good deed that is very happy and expected.

If the people of the country do not open their eyes to the world, the Ming Dynasty will die sooner or later.

There was a faint thought in his heart, but at this moment, Qin Kan definitely didn't dare to say it, and the exit was a disaster.

With a few wry smiles, Qin Kan said: "Your Highness forgives your sins, the minister has lost his manners, let's continue to play cards." ”

After a brief dreary atmosphere, the three of them continued to play cards happily.

"Qin Kan, do you say that there is really that kind of bear in the world who lives only to sleep?" Xu Pengju asked curiously.

Zhu Houzhao said excitedly: "I know that it is called koala, and it grows in ...... Well, Australia? I'd love to catch a few and keep them in my leopard house. ”

Xu Pengju muttered, "A bear without a tail is called a koala...... What is a bear without a chick called? ”

Zhu Houzhao threw out a card and said with a smile: "Stupid, of course it's called no chicken bear......"

Xu Pengju was right to think about it, so he nodded.

I'm very worried about the IQ of these two......

With a deep sigh, Qin Kan's face was bitter: "The two nobles, Father-in-law Liu and Father-in-law Gu can call them 'no chicken people', but bears without chickens, usually speaking, they should be called 'mother bears'......"

Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju's faces suddenly darkened: "............"

Qin Kan said bitterly: "Two, this is common sense!" ”

“…………”

After a long silence, Zhu Houzhao said with a straight face: "Aren't you playing cards?" What are you doing with all this? Be attentive! ”

Qin Kansen smiled: "Concentrate on playing cards, right?" You're welcome. ”

…………

…………

More than an hour later, Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju became miserable green teenagers again, even more miserable than the last time they played cards.

Qin Kan had a mountain of silver in front of him, IOUs and jade pendants and jade belts that they had mortgaged. Mink with a good texture and silk jackets, silk trousers......

On the other hand, Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju were crying with sad faces, and only a single shirt and a pair of thin pants were left on their bodies. The cold wind blew outside, blowing the hem of the two of them's robes, and the two of them covered their lower bodies in panic and shyness, ashamed. Although six charcoal basins had been placed in the front hall, the chill was still felt to the bone.

The two of them stood alone in the front hall, covering their chests with one hand and their lower bodies with the other, silent and pathetic, as if they had just been robbed. It's very pitiful......

Zhu Houzhao sighed gloomily: "No wonder you don't let me pay for your kitchen, it turns out that all of it is here to make up for it......"

Xu Pengju was ashamed and indignant: "I admit that I am a fool and fall into the same pit again and again......"

Qin Kan shuffled the cards calmly and said, "Are you two interested in another game?" Just write an IOU. I'm not afraid that you won't admit it. ”

The two shook their heads in amazement: "I'm not coming!" I won't be able to kill him! ”

Qin Kan smiled and raised his eyebrows: "Then." Wait until you have the money to get in touch? ”

Zhu Houzhao was angry: "It's not enough to kill people, you can't let us go back like this, right?" ”

Qin Kan blinked and said with a smile: "Why don't we talk about something else, Your Highness." Little grandfather, do you want to earn more pocket money? ”

"Pocket money?"

"Yes, although the two of you are Donggong and nobles, they must not have enough money, right?"

Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes and said: "My pocket money is all allocated to the East Palace by the queen mother with internal money, and Gao Feng is in charge of the money and food of the East Palace, and if you want to spend money, you will ask him." How do I know if the road is wide or not? ”

Qin Kan shook his head: "Your Highness is not short of silver, so it doesn't count your share, little grandfather, you are not short of silver?" ”

Xu Pengju snorted: "Who is not short of silver?" Of course, the more the merrier, but Qin Kan, what bad ideas are you fighting. Want to trick me again this time? ”

Qin Kan said with a smile: "I want to partner with the little grandfather to do business, legitimate business." I think I'm embarrassed to have cheated you too much before, so I'll make it up to you this time. ”

Xu Peng raised the expression of a victim who had been cheated too much, and said with a wary face: "You will be so kind? What to buy, and let's hear about it. ”

"Open a supermarket."

"Again?" Xu Peng was angry: "Am I stupid? When you were in Nanjing, you had this bad idea, and I lost all my money......"

Qin Kan muttered: "This person is obviously stupid, he won't do business, but he talks about my bad idea, what's wrong with this world......

Xu Peng paused for a moment, and then said, "What are you going to do?" Take a charter out and I'll think about it. ”

"It's nothing more than propaganda and anti-theft, the publicity is simple, and the anti-theft is a bit troublesome, but it just so happens that I am a thousand households in Jinyiwei, if I open a supermarket in the inner city where dignitaries and nobles gather, and there are fewer ruffians, I am sure that I can make money."

"The inner city still has ruffians......"

Qin Kan said with a smile: "My Jinyiwei is not a vegetarian, first say hello to those guys, who dares to break his hands and feet if his hands and feet are not clean in my store, please ask a group of powerful men to be his buddies, find two representative splashes every day, beat them in front of the neighbors, and it will be regarded as propaganda......"

"Every ...... Beat two a day? Xu Pengju's face was a little dull.

"That's right, after a month of beating, I believe that the mischievous ruffians of the entire Jingshi will have to take a detour when they see my shop."

Zhu Houzhao heard the interest and said excitedly: "I'll also join in the fun, count me in, I can't push the money out if it's not bad." ”

Xu Peng raised the fox suspiciously: "Qin Kan, didn't you just say that you had no money?" You do business with us, what about the cost? ”

Qin Kan smiled and pushed forward the silver, IOUs, and various jade and jade belts he had just won, and pushed his fashionable jacket forward: "Isn't my capital already in front of you?" Can't you see it so conspicuously? ”

Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju's faces became ugly again, and they unconsciously covered the hem that was blown by the wind from time to time, and their movements were very shy.

Xu Pengju sighed: "I kind of understand, you are a white wolf with empty gloves." ”

Qin Kan also sighed: "This person can't speak anymore, obviously he is self-made, will you die if you speak politely?" ”
