Chapter 673: Plunder

Zheng Ke was also laughing, but laughing was more ugly than crying. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

120 million guan, the Zheng family has accumulated wealth for several generations, and may not be able to easily come up with such a Chinese New Year's Eve money.

This guy is obviously here to plunder, and as soon as he opens his mouth, it is the number of Chinese New Year's Eve, and only his Zheng family can take it except for the royal family.

However, it actually means that he is willing to give up, Zheng Ke has begun to weigh the gains and losses in his heart, the crime of bullying the monarch can be small or Chinese New Year's Eve, the question is whether someone will pursue it. The emperor is cowardly by nature, and there is no need to be afraid of anything if it is judged by him, as long as Concubine Zheng is willing to mediate in the palace, there will be no Chinese New Year's Eve.

What really gave him a headache was the queen mother, if the queen mother was investigated, she would really make trouble, and the Zheng family's painstaking management would only be in vain.

Zheng Ke looked at Shen Ao and said viciously, "King Pingxi isn't joking, right?" ”

Shen Ao touched his nose and said with a bitter smile: "This king came here from afar on Chinese New Year's Eve, does the prince think that this king is joking?" ”

Zheng Ke sneered, his eyes hesitated, and he was silent for a moment before he said, "This money...... My Zheng family loses! ”

He really didn't dare to gamble with the net worth and life of the entire Zheng family, if it was just one Zheng Shuang, even if it was 10 million yuan, he would not take it out, but when it came to bullying the king, with Zheng Ke's cautious temperament, he didn't dare to gamble.

Shen Ao clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Happy, this king knows that the Zheng family has a wealth of hundreds of millions, and he is the most willing to share his majesty's worries, but when will the money for buying chickens be paid off?" ”

No one thought that Zheng Ke would have such the courage of Chinese New Year's Eve, and when he heard such a number of Chinese New Year's Eve, Mo said that it was the family of Zheng Mansion, and even the spectators outside the door were taken aback by Chinese New Year's Eve, and couldn't help but think: "King Pingxi's appetite for a good Chinese New Year's Eve, and Zheng Guogong's courage for a good Chinese New Year's Eve." ”

Zheng Ke flicked his sleeves and said, "Can you suspend it for three months?" ”

"Three months?" Shen Ao couldn't help frowning, and said: "Wait for the money of the Duke of Guo to raise out, but I'm afraid that the daylilies will be cold, let's stop it, just let the king suffer a loss, this disaster relief money, the king will move out some of it first, and after three months, wait for the approval letter of the Duke of Guo." He said with a straight face: "Grandpa Guo is loyal to my Chinese New Year's Eve Song, and even more dedicated to His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, this king is really ashamed of himself!" ”

Shen Ao continued: "In order to praise the Zheng family's achievements in abandoning the small family and taking care of the Chinese New Year's Eve situation, this king will go to the Ministry of Rites to ask the Ministry of Rites to make a Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve archway and send it to the Zheng family, haha...... The four characters of the book are for the country to relieve worries, although this word must be written by the king himself, and it must be dyed into gold, so that everyone in the world knows the great achievements of the Zheng family. ”

Zheng Ke snorted coldly and said, "If Your Highness is fine, the old man will send off the guests." ”

"Wait!" Shen Ao Mimi said with a smile: "Although Zheng Guogong is high-spirited, since he promised to invest 120 million yuan to buy chickens, he must leave a certificate, haha...... In business, there is no basis for words, right? ”

As if he had already prepared, he took out an IOU, asked a lieutenant to take the ink clay and walk to Zheng Ke's side, spread out the IOU, presented the clay box, pointed to the lower right corner and said, "Guogong can press it here." ”

Zheng Ke was silent for a moment, and finally dipped his finger in the ink and pressed it. When the Chinese New Year's Eve was over, Shen Ao said loyally: "Zheng Guogong's good name will definitely spread to the world from today." Tens of thousands of Taiyuan victims in this dynasty thanked the prince. ”

Shen Ao bowed deeply, hugged his hand, carefully folded the IOU and put it away, and then said with a smile: "Guogong has always done good deeds without leaving a name, and today's Chinese New Year's Eve is not happy." Then the king will retire first, farewell, farewell......"

Haha laughed, and Shen Ao took the people away.

Zheng Ke snorted coldly and returned to the main hall.

"Tea, tea, everyone is dead?" Zheng Ke's voice roared.

The family members were pale, and no one dared to speak, so they hurriedly stood up and started to get busy again. The old man has never been so Chinese New Year's Eve angry, and if he loses 120 million yuan all of a sudden, he will not have a good face if he is any one, let alone ......

A few of the subordinates who identified Zheng Ke just now were already panicking, if they weren't in a hurry just now, worried about their lives, who would dare to involve the head of their own family? Now that I think about it, I am starting to be scared again, that King Pingxi made it clear that he was a cheater, from the beginning, people didn't plan to arrest you to ask for the crime, but they just came to extort some money, but they didn't calm down just now, and actually climbed to the master's head.

The person who had previously identified Zheng Ke poured a cup of tea in horror and said cautiously, "Master......"

Zheng Ke didn't say anything, picked up the tea and drank it, but just after he entered it, he immediately spit it out and scolded: "Dog tools, are you going to burn the old man?" ”

"The villain should be damned, damn it......" The master knelt on the ground, his face pale.

Zheng Ke finally calmed down, he had never moved such a Chinese New Year's Eve in his life, who knew that he couldn't hold his breath when he was old. In fact, he is not to blame, whoever bumps into this kind of thing is difficult to connect with the determination of Mount Tai to collapse in front of him.

Zheng Ke said slowly: "Mrs. Zheng, how long have you been in the house?" ”

The presiding officer who knelt on the ground said: "It's been fifteen years since I returned to my lord's words. ”

Zheng Ke smiled faintly and said: "Fifteen years, it's not too short to say that it's short, from a miscellaneous servant to a master, can my Zheng family treat you badly?" He continued: "Your son, now walking around in the caravan, also has a monthly salary of twenty yuan a month, originally, if he does well, the old man wants him to lead a team, not to mention promotion and fortune in the future, he can always buy some family business." ”

Zheng Ke spoke very slowly, and every word made Mrs. Zheng's shoulders tremble slightly when she was kneeling on the ground. Zheng Ke continued: "But now it's not compatible, from now on, you can go to the firewood room to do things." Someone came, called his son back, and sent him to the grange in Huaizhou to raise horses. ”

"Old ...... ......"Mrs. Zheng's Adam's apple rolled a little, but she didn't dare to say anything.

"Get out!" Zheng Ke said mercilessly.

"Yes, yes." Mrs. Zheng didn't say anything more and walked away.

In this hall, everyone avoided it, only Zheng Ke and Zheng Fu, a pair of brothers, sat here, Zheng Fu didn't go out just now, but he heard the news outside clearly, he took a sip of tea, and the whole person actually had a little spirit, and less frustration before, but a little resentment. He said lightly: "Brother Chinese New Year's Eve, this home has always been planned by you, I am out in business, and I have not stopped for a day." But there is something I have to say today. ”

Zheng Ke lowered his head to drink tea, unable to see his face.

Zheng Fu said: "We are brothers of the same mother, my son of Zheng Fu is also the son of Brother Chinese New Year's Eve, isn't it?" Zheng Shuang is not angry, causing trouble to our Zheng family, but I, Zheng Fu, only have such an only son, only such a bloodline, if Brother Chinese New Year's Eve takes pity on me as a younger brother, he should take out 25 million guan to redeem Shuang'er. But......" A sneer appeared on his face, and he continued: "But Brother Chinese New Year's Eve would rather pay 120 million yuan to buy 600 chickens than take out a little bit to save Shuang'er, and watch him die without a place to be buried." As a younger brother, I want to ask, does Brother Chinese New Year's Eve still have my brother in his heart? ”

Zheng Ke blew on the tea foam floating on the tea, and said slowly: "Twenty-five million Guan saved Zheng Shuang, and it was King Jin who was to blame." 120 million guan is to buy a peace for my Zheng family, and who can afford to deceive the monarch on Chinese New Year's Eve? If this matter is investigated, if someone instigates the impeachment of the imperial history, and someone in the palace responds, the Zheng family will be implicated. I, as a brother, consider the overall situation, one or two sons and nephews are not good, and they can save nature, but if they are saved, they will affect the Zheng family, and they can only break their wrists. ”

Zheng Fu sneered: "What you said is high-sounding, the money you spent is for the Chinese New Year's Eve Bureau, and the fraction I want is to implicate the Zheng family." Brother Chinese New Year's Eve, you are playing well in this calculation. ”

Zheng Ke sighed and said: "Second brother, you are tired, let's go and rest first, 120 million guan will be up to you to Zhang Luo, these shops in Bianjing, you can sell what you can, and a batch of leather goods that have been hoarded from outside the customs recently will also be sold as soon as possible, three months...... It's not long, it's not short, it's not short, and if you can't take it out when the time comes, the person surnamed Shen will have to stir up trouble again. ”

Zheng Ke stood up and said, "For my brother, I have to go to Taiyuan, and I will ask you for the things here." ”

Zheng Fu snorted coldly, still resentful in his heart.

Zheng Ke shook his head, went out of the hall, went to the bedroom, called a principal to come in, and said, "The second master is in Bianjing, the old man is not at ease, you should keep an eye on it." ”

This principal answered.

Zheng Ke took a nap for a while, and someone outside had already called, saying that the carriage and horses had been prepared, and the servants who went with him had also been selected, so please make a decision.

Zheng Ke dressed neatly, came out slowly, and said, "Let's go, and strive to rest at the mouth of the lake tonight." "Let's go out in the snow.

At this time, a gong sounded, but it was dozens of errand officers who beat gongs and drums to open the way in front, and the bustling people flocked to the back, and in the middle was seven or eight wrestlers carrying a memorial arch, and sure enough, it was painted with gold paint, and the words for the country were written to relieve worries. Shen Ao wore a python robe, and after the whole person rode a horse and the archway in good spirits, there was a team of errands behind him, who also raised the gong, beating on the one hand, and shouting: "Zheng Guogong Zheng Lao Ye invested 120 million yuan for disaster relief, and Zheng Lao Ye will last for generations." ”

When the people along the way saw it, they all flocked to watch the excitement, and some people whispered: "Didn't you say that King Pingxi and Zheng Guogong were not on good terms?" Why did you send him the archway again today? ”

"Who can take the rumors seriously? You see, the king of Pingxi gave Zheng Guogong a memorial arch to publicize Zheng Guogong's deeds, and his face was red, as if he had become a groom. ”

"Ha, King Pingxi is really laughing, if they have a suspicion, where can they laugh like this?"

Zheng Ke took people out first, and saw the golden lacquer archway felt particularly dazzling, Zheng Ke wanted to show a little smile, but he couldn't laugh anyway, 120 million in exchange for a memorial arch, this archway is made of gold, and it is full of Wang Xizhi's book and Gu Kaizhi's paintings, but I am afraid that it is not worth a fraction of 120 million.

At this time, Shen Ao came out of the crowd, and in the sound of gongs and drums, he smiled at Zheng Fu and said: "Zheng Guogong values righteousness over wealth, and is really a model for businessmen and clansmen in the world. ”

Zheng Ke just looked at Shen Ao coldly.

Shen Ao smiled and said, "Do you want Zheng Guogong to say a few words?" ”

Zheng Ke can still say anything, but he has the heart to kill.

Seeing that he was silent, Shen Ao couldn't help but smile and said, "Zheng Guogong is really too polite. Then he said, "Come, erect this archway." ”

Dozens of errands brought shovels and shovels together, and crowded into this courtyard together, digging soil again, and tree archway again, fortunately, there are many people, but it does not take much time, but a stick of incense, this archway is completed.

Shen Ao looked up at the archway with a smile and said to Zheng Ke: "Guogong, with this archway, no matter how much you lack virtue in the future, you will not be afraid of hurting yin and virtue...... Ahhhh......h What does this king say? Huh......" He embarrassedly looked at the dozen or so cars parked at the door, and said, "What? Zheng Guogong is going to go far away? ”

Zheng Ke said lightly: "Exactly." ”

Shen Ao couldn't help laughing and said, "It won't be going to Taiyuan, right?" ”

Zheng Ke neither endorses nor denies.

Shen Ao sighed and said, "It just so happens that this king is going to Taiyuan tomorrow, haha...... When the time comes, please ask Guogong to drink......" and then said: "No, no, the Taiyuan disaster is urgent, where do you and I have the leisure to drink?" ”

Zheng Ke snorted coldly, refusing to mess with Shen Aohu anymore, and wanted to enter the hall through the archway.

Shen Ao stopped him: "Wait! ”

Zheng Ke looked back, his footsteps couldn't help but pause, he was really scared by the word slow.

Shen Ao said with a smile: "Guogong is still good to take a detour, this archway is not overpowering." ”

Zheng Ke's eyes closed and said coldly: "Why is this?" ”

Shen Ao solemnly arched his hand towards the purpose of the palace city mark, and said: "Zheng Guogong's righteous act, this king has already told His Majesty, Your Majesty Longyan Chinese New Year's Eve, so the words on this archway are not written by this king, but written by His Majesty's royal pen." Guogong should know that under this royal pen, how can people make money and expenditure at will? Therefore, this king suggested that the Duke of Kingdom set up a Chinese New Year's Eve shed here, cover this plaque, and do not let this imperial gift be left to the wind and rain, and under this archway, it is a forbidden area, idle people, etc., can all pay and pay? ”

The idle people in Shen Ao's mouth are of course Zheng Ke. A good archway stands behind the middle gate, set up a shed, which is equivalent to blocking the middle door, and then prohibits people from paying and paying, this Zheng family wants to pay and fall the mansion up and down, just afraid to climb over the wall.

After hearing this, Zheng Ke's face became even more gloomy.
