When Zhengde returned to the leopard room, he was still dizzy. Although he had already glimpsed the huge profits of sea trade from the history books, it was still incredible for him to be so big.

Just such a small fight can have millions or even tens of millions of silver, so what if the whole country opens the sea?!

His breathing became short, and his hands were clenched tightly, thinking that those people in the court took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

Jian Yunshu is right, sometimes you can't be in a hurry, and you always have to do one or two tricks.

Liu Jin......

The slender white fingers flicked on the tabletop, and after a long while, a smile appeared on the emperor's face, which was meaningful.

Jian Yunshu is right, this matter should be handed over to the person he trusts the most. Let's have a private interview with Weifu first, and then make the next step.

Thinking of this, he immediately called Liu Jin and said, "Companion, there is something very important, I want you to do it yourself." ”

Liu Jin's body was shocked when he heard this, and he said energetically: "Serve Your Majesty, and the slave will never give up!" ”

"Hehe, that's not necessary."

Zhengde said: "I have heard that many officials in the south have asked for the opening of the sea, and they say that the benefits of this sea trade are considerable. ”

Liu Jin's eyes widened, "Your Majesty wants to open the sea?" ”

"Where is it going to work? The courtiers must be opposed. It's just that I think that this grandfather only said that the small people are not allowed to trade by sea, but he didn't say that I, the son of heaven, can't do it. You go for me, I heard that there are many people in Wusong and Mingzhou who are prohibited, you don't need to alarm them, but you have to make friends, and ask me about the benefits of this sea trade? ”

Liu Jin almost scolded her mother!

Which of the eight lambs of the king had a bad idea in front of His Majesty?! What does it matter if the sea trade makes money or not? The point is, how do you get him over there? Is he still going to mess up?

He was scolding in his heart and listened to Zhengde again: "I heard that the big businessmen over there do hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year doing sea trade. If this is the case, I plan to pay for it in the inner treasury, and let you take care of this matter, and earn a few private money for me, and I will be harder in the future. ”

Liu Jin was stunned, "Hundreds of thousands of taels? ”

After that, he bowed down, "Emperor, are you being confused?" How much do I pay in a year? How many businessmen and the like can there be? ”

"Hehe, I was also surprised by this, but it is also recorded in the history books that the sea trade was developed in the Song Dynasty and it was indeed profitable. And Mr. Jian is a native of Jiangnan, and what he said is true. She told me that someone as capable as me would be able to play a million a year at all, and it didn't take much effort. You go for yourself, inquire clearly, and when I earn the money, I will be able to shut the mouths of those courtiers. ”

Zhu Houzhao sneered, but there was excitement in his eyes. This Son of Heaven, who had been suppressed for a long time, suddenly felt that he had a strength, and he couldn't wait to see the surprised faces of those courtiers!

Thinking about it like this, my heart is even more beautiful, I only feel that Jian Ning is my own Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, and I have to find something good to reward her later.

Well, it's hot, so give her a silk fan. After thinking about it again, I have to write a few lines of poetry for her, and I have to let her know that I am also talented, and I also understand such elegance.

Thinking of this, he said: "Big companion, I remember that Suzhou paid tribute to a few silk fans, among which there are dragonflies standing lotus patterns, you go and get them, put them in a luodian lacquerware box, and reward them to Jian Yunshu." ”

Liu Jin hadn't recovered from the shock just now, and when he heard this again, his body was shocked again, and he said quite sourly: "Your Majesty, that silk is an inch of gold, and it is used to make the emperor and queen, Yuzhen (imperial statue), if it is given to Mr., will it?" ”

"Hehe, what's this? This is my reward, who dares to say anything? Moreover, many people now use this to copy the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities, and they all make it, how? The gentleman who helped me a lot? Remember, be sure to pick a good-looking Raden lacquerware box and put it in it......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao glanced at Liu Jin and said meaningfully: "I feel that this Mr. Jian is a confidant in this life, don't slack off." ”

Liu Jin's face turned pale, and then he said: "Yes, the slave is provincial, so I will arrange it." ”

After a pause, he knelt down again, "Your Majesty, the slave maid will pack up and set off for the south, but the slave and maid can't share your Majesty's worries this time......"

As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes, "The slave and maid feel sad when they think that the slave and maid can't serve you. The slave and maid knew that the emperor was not short of people to serve, but the slave and maid were afraid, afraid that the slave and maid would leave, and the emperor would be wronged and no one would block it for the emperor. ”

After that, she really cried like a woman. Zhu Houzhao's heart softened as soon as he cried, and he let go of his snubbing of Jian Ning, and then thought about Liu Jin as soon as he left, didn't he have to go to court? How can this be? If you go to the court, you have to be bombarded, no, you can't let Liu Jin do it, you still have to change people.

Who can be replaced?

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a while, and said: "Your words are also reasonable, you let me think about it, go and pick something and send it to Mr. first, remember, you send it yourself." By the way, come and grind, I will also write a poem to her, so that little girl knows that I not only know martial arts but also understand elegance! ”

Thinking of the appearance of Nizi's pouting, Zhu Houzhao felt unhappy. Why do you always feel underestimated? How can a dignified man lose to her little girl? Thinking about her talent and resourcefulness again, Zhu Houzhao faintly felt a sense of competition in his heart.

After the ink was studied, the draft in my heart was also typed, and I wrote a few lines on the paper with the pen, blew on the paper, and whispered a few times in my mouth, showing satisfaction.

Hmph, little Nizi, let you see and understand, I will be elegant!

An hour later, the reward was in the hands of Janine. Before Jian Ning could appreciate this ancient top handicraft, he was first ridiculed by Gonggong Liu.

"Mr. Jane, now that you Jian is in the emperor's heart, you can be regarded as having a hard time and is about to grow."

Liu Jin was yin and yang, "Don't forget the miscellaneous family when the time comes, after all, if it's not the miscellaneous family, how can you face the saint?" ”

"The kindness of my father-in-law is unforgettable."

Jian Ning bowed and said respectfully: "Therefore, today Your Majesty asked who is suitable to investigate and take charge of the maritime trade, and the maiden said that it was you, father-in-law. In this world, only the father-in-law can be selfless and fearless to His Majesty, and will not be restrained by those pedantic literati. ”

Liu Jin almost scolded her mother! Are you helping me or hurting me?! At the beginning of the year, I just cleaned up a group of people, and if I leave the capital at this time, I won't be overturned?!

"Jian Yunshu!"

Gonggong Liu was so angry that he fell together, pointed at Jian Ning and scolded, "You gloomy villain, what are your intentions?!" Where are you helping the miscellaneous family, you are simply harming the miscellaneous family! Say, who are you really the person? Who sent you?! ”

"Where did my father-in-law say that?"

Jian Ning's face turned cold, "How did I get here, doesn't my father-in-law know best?" My father-in-law just said, if it weren't for you, how could I face the saint? Why, did you forget it so quickly? ”

"You, you, how dare you talk to me like that?"

"Humph!"

Jian Ning snorted coldly, "My father-in-law probably doesn't know my temperament!" I, Jian Yunshu, are the most annoying to intrigue with others, upholding the principle that whoever is good to me will be better to whom! My father-in-law is kind to me, how can I harm my father-in-law? My father-in-law said that I was a villain, should I still nod my head?! ”

She flicked her sleeves, "Although Jian Yunshu is humble, he is not talented, but he yearns for the way of a saint, and he can be killed but not humiliated!" Father-in-law, please go back! ”

As she spoke, she made the action of "sending off guests", which made the angry Liu Jin stunned. To tell the truth, since Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, few people in this world dare to talk to him like this......

Looking at Jian Ning's indifferent appearance, his suspicions came out again, so he suppressed his anger and replaced it with a smiling face and said: "Mr.'s character is naturally trustworthy, but the eunuch of the miscellaneous family has always been despised by those ministers." You, don't look at them being obedient now, but the miscellaneous family dares to guarantee that as long as the miscellaneous family retreats a little, they will pounce on the miscellaneous family and bite them to death. So, tell me, how can the miscellaneous family leave Beijing? You mention this to Your Majesty, ouch......"

He stamped his feet, looking like he was about to cry, "Isn't that hurting me?" ”

"Huh."

Jian Ning continued to be "cold", "My father-in-law thinks that Jian Yunshu is a villain, what do you do with so much?" As the saying goes, the way is not the same, and the father-in-law's favor will be reported when there is an opportunity, at this time, it is better not to communicate! Zhang's mother, send off! ”

"Ouch!"

Liu Jin shouted: "No wonder Your Majesty said that you look cold and are a careful eye!" I can be your grandfather's age, why are you doing this to the elderly? ”

Seeing that Jian Ning turned around and didn't leave, with such a strong attitude, Liu Jin's brain opened. Is it really a great idea? Is it a good idea? No, I have to listen.

Liu Jin surrounded him, and when he saw Jian Ning's face showing anger, he took out a posture to please the Son of Heaven, "Ouch, my husband, little ancestor, what do you have in mind?" We're kind of a little bit of a kindness, right? You can't just say a few words that don't sound good and stop talking, right? You're alone, it's better to have more friends than more enemies, right? ”

"Alas!"

Jian Ning suddenly sighed, "Father-in-law, do you think I will have any friends with people like you?" ”

Liu Jin had a question mark in his head, "Sir, what do you mean by this?" ”

"My father-in-law and I are essentially the same people, both of whom are favored by the emperor. This is through the ages, but whenever the emperor is wrong, it is either on the head of the woman or on the head of the servant, but father-in-law, tell me, is this really the case? ”

Liu Jin didn't know why Jian Ning suddenly said this, but when she smashed it, she suddenly felt a sense of identity. Yes, a lot of the emperor's fault, what's the blame on others?

"This, this...... Ouch, sir, what are you talking about? You recommended the miscellaneous family to your majesty to check, so what is the purpose of the maritime merchants? ”

"I'm ...... with my father-in-law"

Jian Ning sat down slowly, took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "They are all people who have no roots and no roots, so if you want to stand undefeated, you can only keep this grand favor." ”

She stretched out her hand and dipped it in the teacup, and wrote the word "silver" on the table, Liu Jin looked at it, and seemed to understand a little, and her attitude was a little lower, and she bowed down and said, "What does Mr. mean?" ”

"Heh......"

Jian Ning chuckled, "What does Your Majesty lack the most?" Isn't my father-in-law better than me? ”

After that, he shook his head slightly, "I heard that Wusong, the annual income of 100,000 taels in Mingzhou and other places is like playing." If you play the signboard of the royal inner court and sell the first-class things made in the royal inner court to those barbarians, tsk, father-in-law, I don't dare to think about how much it will cost......"
