Chapter 59: Jin Zhong is enchanted
500,000 taels is a lot, Zhu Di thinks he is very knowledgeable, but apart from seeing so much in the treasury, he really can't think of where he can have so much silver.
But now he has it, and there are now 500,000 taels in the palace, but most of them are silver tickets, and only a small amount of silver.
Zhu Di is okay, there is so much silver and he has not lost his sense of proportion. Jin Zhong couldn't do it, he never expected that he would record an account of 500,000 taels yesterday, which was his 5,000-year-old fortune.
As soon as he thought of this, Jin Zhong was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and he nagged Zhang Yu vigorously next to him, Zhang Yu was tired of listening to it, and blocked his ears with both hands. But Jin Zhong just didn't stop, turned his head and said to Dao Yan again. Dao Yan is not interested in money, so he ignores Jin Zhong. So Hu Ye became the object of Jin Zhong's nagging.
"Your Highness, this is only the first day, and there are still four days to go, and many merchants are still watching. I believe that as long as these two red lists are posted, there will be many merchants who will pay money and food in the next few days, and Your Highness will take a big box to hold money. Hu Ye ignored Jin Zhong's nagging, but said to Zhu Di.
"Is the Good Man List really so magical?" Zhu Di looked at the two red lists on the table and said in disbelief.
"Your Highness, this is nothing more than a name. What merchant does not earn the hard-earned money of the people, if they can be good people, there will be no evil people under this world. Especially the people on this list, they may still have the blood of the people in their hands. ”
So they really want to use this list of good people to flaunt themselves, they don't want to leave a stench for 10,000 years, so they want to get the "meritorious family" written by His Royal Highness, no matter how much money they spend, they won't blink an eye. ”
"Your Highness, take a look, Huitong Money Village, pay eight thousand taels. Eight treasures of money, 7,000 taels. The sum of these money is more than 200,000 taels, Your Highness, do you say there will be good people among them? So the more things that don't belong to them, the more they want them. The more you want to get it, the more willing you are to spend it. ”
"So I dare to conclude that as soon as the list of good people is posted today, this Eight Treasures Money Village will come to pay money in order to be on the list, and in order to get His Highness's "meritorious family", they will spend their money. There is also the list of good people who pay for food, and now it is 5,000 stone on the list, and it will definitely exceed 5,000 stone today. Hu Ye analyzed.
"Hey, the meritorious people are immoral people, but the good people are not good people, are we helping to abuse them by doing this?" Zhu Di Nannan muttered to herself.
"Your Highness, good and evil have their own conclusions, and justice is at ease in the hearts of the people. We know what kind of people they are, and the people know it, and they will not change because of a single word from His Highness, so His Highness doesn't have to care about these details. ”
"If this list of good people and the people of merit can make them change their minds to goodness, it will be very good. If not, His Highness has at least done a good deed for the people, and using this money to build two dams is a great thing for the benefit of thousands of years. Using their food to cope with this year's drought is also for the benefit of the people. Hu Ye enlightened Zhu Di.
"Yes, Your Highness, this can be regarded as taking from the people and using it for the people. Your Highness is helping these businessmen to do good deeds, how can it be regarded as aiding and abetting. Zhang Yu stood up and said, he knew that Zhu Di might be a little shaken now, but now the arrow is ready to be sent and he has to send it.
"What do you think?" Zhu Di hesitated, so he asked Yan again.
"Amitabha, Your Highness, the Buddha said that good and evil will be rewarded in the end. If they are able to contribute to the country, they can be regarded as having evil to eliminate evil fruits, and no evil to produce good results. Dao Yan said while fiddling with the Buddha beads.
Dao Yan is really Zhu Di's most valued adviser, and just one sentence made Zhu Di make up his mind.
"There is evil that goes to evil, and there is no evil that bears good." Okay, that's right, I don't care if these businessmen have done anything hurtful or not, but this time they did help save the people, and my "meritorious family" is not helping to abuse. ”
If they are really worthy of the title of "meritorious family" in the future and live up to this list of good people, I can also be regarded as benefiting the people. But if they still dare to secretly thank the heavens and reason, they will blame my subordinates for being ruthless. Zhu Di said with determination.
"Okay, post these two lists of good people at the city gate, and you continue to the merit platform. I would also like to urge the people to change to millet cultivation, but yesterday it had no effect at all. Zhu Di gave the order.
"Yes, the ministers are leaving." Zhang Yu and the others took the list of good people and left the Yanwang Mansion.
After posting the list of good people at the city gate, Hu Ye followed Jin Zhong and them to the merit platform.
As a result, as soon as he arrived at the merit platform, Jin Zhong forgot all the oath he had made yesterday and kicked away the bookkeeper who was preparing to keep accounts. He didn't expect that he had sold 500,000 taels of silver yesterday, and now he was a little excited to think about it, so how could this excitement be enjoyed by a bookkeeper. So Jin Zhong didn't care about the backache, and picked up the brush again, and he had to enjoy it today.
Hu Ye finally witnessed what pain is and was happy, and he knew a little more about Jin Zhong. It can't be said that he has an eye for money, because for so many years, he is still very incorruptible.
Compared with Jin Zhong's broken promise and fat, Zhang Yu is much more trustworthy, and if he doesn't remember it today, he won't remember it. But in line with the attitude of being responsible for King Yan and the people of Beiping, he let Zhang Fu sit on the chair.
Poor Zhang Fu, who is used to holding knives, guns and sticks, is very unaccustomed to lifting a pen, but after glancing at his father's serious eyes, he has no choice but to write down every labor that comes to sign up.
Hu Ye came to Zhang Fu's back, and it was the first time he saw Zhang Fu writing. Not to mention, don't look at Zhang Fu, who is a big and rough man, but his writing is not ambiguous and square, which makes Hu Ye very ashamed. As soon as he thought of his wild grass like a thin snake drilling grass, Hu Ye felt that it was time for him to practice calligraphy.
The workload on the second day was obviously not as heavy as the day before, and Zhang Fu was glad that he didn't have to write too many names. But Jin Zhong was not happy, why are there not as many people who come to pay money and food today as there were yesterday, I still have to wait for the accounting.
So much so that in the afternoon, when Jin Zhong saw people, he asked, "Are you here to pay for money, are you here to pay for food?" ”
Hu Ye thought that Jin Zhong was a demonic obstacle, while Zhang Yu and Zhang Fu thought that Jin Zhong had fallen into Qian's eyes, but Lao Qian rushed up against the big knife and asked him what happened to Qian Yanjin, and whether there was an assassin assassin.
Hu Ye kicked this two hundred and five, how could he have such a superb bodyguard under his hands.
Finally, no one came, Jin Zhong shouted for a long time, and finally stopped. Since there was no one to deliver the money, he began to count the money. After looking at the accounts on the ledger, zuihouhahadaxiao said, "Haha, there are 200,000 taels today, I didn't expect me to have today." ”
Hu Ye originally thought that Jin Zhong had improved, but he didn't expect that the demon was deeper, and Zhang Yu even shouted that he was hopeless. So he ordered the guards to send the account book back to the Yan Wangfu, and several people walked to the stall yesterday. Although Jin Zhong was in a demonic obstacle, he still knew that he was hungry, so he didn't need to say hello, he followed.
But as soon as a few people came to the stall, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
