Chapter 17: Suddenly Becoming Super-Rich
"Brother, you're too fierce!"
After leaving Linzhong County for a long time, Ma Shiyuan, who was in the same carriage with Gu Zhun, still couldn't help but admire.
Gu Zhun waved his hand: "Low-key and low-key!"
Ma Shiyuan's fat face was full of worship, and the full worship seemed to be overflowing.
"......" Gu Zhun was a little embarrassed by this fat man's staring, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Can you stop acting?"
Ma Shiyuan's expression was surprised for a moment, and then he said with a look of adoration: "Brother, can you actually see that I am acting?"
Gu Zhun raised his hand and slapped it, but he didn't use any force, and slapped it directly on Ma Shiyuan's fat face.
This fat man's sycophant is so greasy!
Ma Shiyuan suddenly put away his greasy expression and said, "Brother, in order to celebrate the lesson you taught to Yu Jie and Fu Chenghong, who are not eye-opening, my brother invited you to go to the Ten Mile Spring Breeze Corridor to listen to music and drink tea?"
"Okay!" Gu Zhun agreed, but in his heart he was thinking about how much he could earn from the Fu family this time.
This seems to be his first pot of gold in another world!
The carriage turned its head and headed towards the ten-mile spring breeze corridor.
......
......
Fu Chenghong had also returned to his mansion at this time.
As soon as Fu Gui, the long-awaited housekeeper saw Fu Chenghong coming back, he immediately greeted him: "Master, are you back?"
"Hmph!" Fu Chenghong snorted and strode towards the mansion.
When Fu Gui saw this, he didn't understand that the master was afraid that he would be deflated today.
Not daring to ask again at the moment, Fu Gui lowered his head and followed Fu Chenghong towards the mansion in small steps.
Fu Chenghong is also aggrieved in his heart at the moment, anyone who is pinched by a teenager will always be a little unhappy in his heart!
In particular, in this incident, Fu Chenghong attacked first.
Although he was in the county government at that time, Fu Chenghong planned to give Gu Zhun satisfactory compensation, but when he left the county office, the more he thought about it, the more he lost!
Why don't you get in touch with the Jie Du Envoy and see if there is any other room to operate?
After Fu Chenghong sat down and drank a cup of tea, he knocked on the armrest of the seat and asked, "Is there any news today?"
Immediately afterwards, Fu Chenghong reminded lightly: "About the Zhenbei Hou Mansion or the new Jiedu Envoy." ”
Fu Gui, who was still reminiscing, immediately had a direction and said, "Today, there is really an urgent message from the imperial court using the Qianli Wind Whistle!"
"Because Sun Yongzhuang imitated Lord Dazai's warrant and assassinated the prince of Zhenbeihou, Lord Dazai was ashamed and asked for a one-year fine, and His Majesty issued a special decree in order to appease Zhenbei Hou, allowing Zhenbei Hou to expand the private army to 10,000 within a month!"
"What?" Fu Chenghong looked stunned.
Fu Gui didn't know if the old man didn't hear clearly, so he had to slow down and repeat it again.
Fu Chenghong was sure that he had heard correctly, and he couldn't hold the teacup in shock!
The private army was expanded from 6,000 to 10,000?
Generally speaking, the expansion of the private army is allowed, which is a sign of being promoted!
This...... Marquis of Zhenbei, are you going to be promoted from a marquis to a duke?
Could it be that the cutting of the feudal domain is fake, and that some people have guessed the wrong will of the king? In fact, the current Zhenbei Hou Mansion is even more graceful than it was back then?
Thinking of this, Fu Chenghong couldn't sit still, and the idea of repaying the account and operating with Wen Zhenyan again that came up before was suddenly dispelled!
"Quick, go and prepare some gold and silver tickets, as well as three percent of the silk of Yongzhou City...... No, let's give all the shops on the entire Fuming Street to Gu Zhun. ”
Fu Chenghong suddenly spoke, but the words he said startled Fu Gui!
What's wrong with this, sir? Are you crazy? The old man who used to be a dime a dime in the past, but today he actually wants to give money to people? And he also wants to give away all the shops on Fuming Street, the most prosperous street in Yongzhou and where every inch of land is valuable?
"Master, you ......" Fu Gui couldn't believe it at all.
Fu Chenghong roared: "Why don't you go soon?"
Fu Gui didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly went down to do something.
At this time, Fu Chenghong felt a little trembling inexplicably, and he was even more glad in his heart: Fortunately, he failed this morning, otherwise, he would really send Gu Zhun to the cell, I am afraid that he will be hanged on the Yongzhou city wall by the Marquis of Zhenbei!
......
......
Linzhong County Ya.
sent Gu Zhun and Fu Chenghong away, and dealt with the dispute between two small people who came to the city to sell goods, and Yu Jie found some official shelf.
"No matter who makes me in the future, I don't care!" Yu Jie complained when he walked to the back office.
"Master, big news!" The master of the yamen, that is, Yu Jie's staff, hurried back from outside the yamen.
Yu Jie frowned and reprimanded, "What's the matter?"
"It's about the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei!"
Hearing this, Yu Jie suddenly glared: "Don't mention Zhenbeihou Mansion to me again!"
"Uh......"
"Forget it, let's talk about it!" Yu Jie felt that he still listened.
The master immediately retold the news of the expansion of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
Hearing this, Yu Jie's eyes narrowed slightly, of course he understood that the meaning of this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
But, this has nothing to do with him!
After seeing Gu Zhun's lower limit today, Yu Jie no longer has any plans to get involved in the affairs of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei.
It doesn't matter if you cut the feudal domain, or not! I, Yu Jie, am a small county from Liupinzhi, what does all this have to do with me?
Yu Jie hummed and chirped, it was quite cold in this winter, go back to the back house to find his new concubine to sleep in the warm bed, and do something you love to do, isn't it better than anything else?
......
......
"Last night, Hou Ye used a thousand miles of wind whistle to slightly express his dissatisfaction to the imperial court, early this morning, the imperial court actually allowed Hou Ye to expand the army, this is really a crying child has milk to eat!
In the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, several generals of the private army under Gu Jiuming were all beaming at the first moment they heard the news.
It's just that Gu Jiuming and a very obese man heard the news, but they were not happy at all, and their brows furrowed.
Several generals were laughing, and when they saw that Hou Ye and the military advisor were so dignified, they were also full of smiles.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "Master Hou, what's wrong? Isn't it good to allow the expansion of the army?"
"The expansion of the army, of course, is a good thing. But, of course, this also brings some bad things. The fat man replied by touching his thin figure-eight beard.
He also knew that these generals were rough people, so he had to explain: "The first bad thing is to kill! In the Great Xia Dynasty, all the marquis' private army was 5,000 people, because of the threat of the Northern Dynasty, the establishment of the marquis with 1,000 more people has been blushing by many people, but because of the marquis's great military exploits, no one dares to say it." But now, the monarch suddenly expanded the establishment of our family to 10,000 people, and the other marquis could not help but be jealous and hateful! In this way, if the cutting of the feudal domain falls on our heads, they will naturally be even more happy to watch the excitement!"
"The second bad thing is that although there are more than 4,000 private troops, these 4,000 private troops will not be able to form effective combat effectiveness in a short period of time, and will even drag down the combat effectiveness of our Zhenbei cavalry! In addition, His Majesty requires us to complete the preparation of 4,000 new troops within a month, this is not the time for us to screen, I don't know how many other people's spies will be mixed in!"
"The third bad thing is that the expansion of the army must use a lot of money, I have to say, now there are only 6,000 Zhenbei horses, our Hou Ye is already a little unable to make ends meet, this expansion of 4,000 people, if it is matched with horses, I am afraid that our Hou Ye will be so poor that he can't open the pot!"
Hearing the fat man's analysis, these generals of Zhenbei Cavalry are still a little confused, if you want to talk about marching and fighting, they are all first-class good hands, but they really don't know anything about this political matter!
Someone scratched his head: "Then why don't we expand?"
"Expand, of course we have to expand!" Gu Jiuming said with a smile, "How can we waste food because of choking, no matter what, expanding the army is always a good thing, in the past, I always felt that six thousand horsemen, facing the Northern Dynasty is a little insufficient, now that Your Majesty is specially gracious, how can we not be unreasonable?"
The fat man joked with a smile: "Then the Hou Ye and the prince are just afraid that they will have to tighten their belts together to live!"
Gu Jiuming smiled and waved his hand: "Hahaha, I'll just tighten my belt alone, that kid, I can't endure hardship!"
Hearing this, the fat man and several generals had a smile in their eyes, Hou Ye has been pampering the prince for so many years, and he still loves the prince as always!
......
......
Gu Zhun, who was accepting Ma Shiyuan's banquet in the Shili Spring Breeze Corridor, suddenly received a big gift from the Fu family.
The gold ticket is 1,000 taels, and the silver ticket is 20,000 taels. The most important thing is that there are also 21 shop ownership and title deeds on Fuming Street!
Looking at all this, Ma Shiyuan was stunned: "Brother, you are ...... overnight Oh no, I got rich in the morning! I've been in business for so many years, and I don't make as much money as you do!"
Gu Zhun didn't have a particularly big concept of this money, and couldn't help but be curious: "Are these a lot?"
"It is no exaggeration to say that just take these assets of Fuming Street, in the entire Yongzhou, no, the entire Hexi Sanzhou, you are already the top 100 super-rich!" Ma Shiyuan said enviously.
"The top hundred? It's okay! I'm not a turtle who hasn't seen the world. Also, I've never liked money!" Gu Zhun pursed his lips, his face was arrogant and full of force, not at all like the person who was still thinking about how much he could make from the Fu family in the carriage before.
Then, Gu Zhun calmly said to the Fu family slave: "Tell you master, I received the things, your young master, I will probably go back tonight, you should be ready to greet it!"
Hearing this, Fu Gui bowed respectfully, and then retreated.
After Fu Gui left, Ma Shiyuan looked at the title deeds and shop ownership, and couldn't help drooling: "You became a super rich man all of a sudden, are you happy?"
Gu Zhun looked at the gold and silver tickets, as well as the title deeds and shop account books, forcibly smoothed the corners of his mouth that were about to be raised, and pretended to say: "I don't know, maybe it's happier than being a super poor!"
