Chapter 99: Sacrificing His Life to Save the Gentleman

Early the next morning.

Zhu Chen slept until three o'clock in the morning, and when he woke up, Zhu Chen began to count his property.

Selling calligraphy and paintings, plus some precious wood furniture, is equivalent to about 50,000 taels of silver.

Fifty thousand taels of silver was already a lot in the early Ming Dynasty.

Looking at the money, Zhu Chen couldn't help but worry, what should he do with the money?

Zhu Chen suddenly thought of his own system, and the rewards issued by the system before made him live here like a fish in water.

If the goal of the system to make himself emperor is accomplished, wouldn't it be more beneficial?

Moreover, if you become an emperor, the first advantage is that you can completely control this dynasty!

If you want to make this dynasty better, you must first firmly control all the power in your own hands, so that you can better lead this dynasty to a prosperous era beyond Yongle!

It's just that now, it's the eleventh year of Yongle.

You know, the Yongle Emperor is not easy to provoke, dare to learn from Wang Mang's usurpation? Knock your head off.

Then only when Emperor Yongle dies, it is only ten years before Yongle dies, and he can take this opportunity to develop his own power.

If you want to rebel, you must have someone to support you, and the development forces will inevitably use money.

It just so happens that the development of power is another money-burning thing, and it can't be played without money.

"Rebellion, be the emperor......" Zhu Chen muttered.

Thinking of the supreme power, Zhu Chen actually had a feeling of excitement.

When you really stand in that position, what glory and how light it will be?

"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!" Zhu Chen muttered, only feeling that his blood was burning in his heart.

If you want to be the emperor, you can only usurp the old Zhu family.

"Tianyu doesn't take it, but suffers from it, that position, I should sit in that position!" Zhu Chen's ambition swelled completely.

Since they have all come to the Ming Dynasty, isn't it good to do a great career vigorously and be the second successful Wang Mang?

"Money, if you want to rebel, 50,000 taels is not enough." This was the first problem Zhu Chen faced.

Where to get the money?

Zhu Chen's mind was running rapidly, and he suddenly remembered a useful message.

In the general history of the Ming Dynasty, it was recorded that in the eleventh year of Yongle, the agarwood transported to Yingtianfu from the land of Liangguang was suddenly burned clean by a fire in the warehouse.

Agarwood was burned, causing the rich and nobles of Yingtianfu to have no spices, causing the price of agarwood to skyrocket.

Counting the days, now the agarwood has not skyrocketed, which means that there is still room for operation.

As long as you buy the agarwood on the market in advance, wait until the news of the agarwood being burned reaches Yingtianfu, and the price skyrockets, and then sell it yourself.

I'm afraid this profit is very rich.

A smile appeared on Zhu Chen's face: "Money, isn't it so easy?" ”

It's just that now the agarwood on the market in Yingtianfu is also rare, and if you want to buy it, you have no channels, which is quite troublesome, and you have to find a big family to cooperate with you.

The Shen family is not bad.

At this moment, a voice sounded outside: "Boss, someone has come to the door." ”

Only then did Zhu Chen walk into the courtyard and look in the direction of the gate: "Who?" ”

I saw that the red dress from yesterday was delicately walking towards me, and as I walked, I still had a giggle on my face.

It's her?

This little girl's skin has been pestering herself, it seems that she really likes herself?

But there was something to talk to her about, and she came at the right time.

Zhu Chen greeted him with a smile: "Miss Shen, we meet again." ”

Shen Qingqiu said with a smile: "I'll send you some tea, I don't know if you like it or not." ”

Zhu Chen smiled: "Then thank you, I also happen to have a business here that I want to talk to you about." ”

When Shen Qingqiu heard this, his smile became more and more delicate: "Talk, how to talk?" ”

Zhu Chen pondered for a moment: "After a while, the news that the agarwood warehouse was burned in the Liangguang Society, and the price of agarwood in Tianfu has skyrocketed, I think before that, please help me buy a large number of agarwood." ”

Shen Qingqiu is such a shrewd woman, she has followed her father everywhere to do business since she was a child, and when she heard it, she knew how operable this news was.

This made her look at Zhu Chen again, and she was amazed in her heart.

"You're not worried about me doing it myself?" The red dress giggled.

Zhu Chen smiled: "Don't use suspicious people, don't be suspicious." ”

If you don't even have the courage to do so, how can you cooperate?

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Hongsheng's heart admired Zhu Chen even more.

What kind of man is this, and why can he say such confident and fascinating words?

She stood up and bowed slightly to Zhu Chen: "Okay, then it's decided, the Shen family will buy agarwood for you." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Chen smiled.

As long as you can do this business, you will have accumulated your money, and if you have money, are you afraid that you won't be able to cultivate your own power?

Zhu Chen also stood up and saluted: "What do you Shen ask for?" ”

"Nope." Little Red Dress smiled on her face: "I like you." ”

Suddenly a confession made Zhu Chen stunned: "Is it so straightforward?" ”

"I like you, I like you." Little Red Dress said it twice in a row.

She looked at Zhu Chen with delicate eyes: "I like a person, I am willing to give everything for him, how can there be any conditions." ”

Zhu Chen was embarrassed: "Then give me all the property of your Shen family." ”

"If you marry me, it will be yours along with people and wealth, the Shen family has a big business, and the business is all over the Ming Dynasty, I can give it to you without a penny." The little red dress supported her face and looked at Zhu Chen with blank eyes.

Zhu Chen suddenly said curiously: "Shen family? Which Shen family. ”

The little red skirt chuckled: "Shen Wansan's Shen family, it's just that it's the main sect, and after the main sect is assigned to Yunnan, my vein will become bigger." ”

Shen Wansan, the richest man in the early Ming Dynasty, this is a big man.

Unexpectedly, this is Shen Wansan's descendant, and it is a walking money bag.

It is wonderful that he can still know the descendants of Shen Wansan after crossing the Ming Dynasty by himself.

Zhu Chengao glanced at this girl, if he could win over the Shen family to support him, at least in terms of the money for the rebellion, there would be a steady stream of blood transfusions from the Shen family......

"Agarwood is important, I'll go back and buy it for you, do you want to go and have a look." Little Red Dress asked with a smile.

There was nothing left and right, and Zhu Chen didn't twist: "Okay, then let's go." ”

The two went out together and walked in the direction of Shen's pawnshop.

Qiu Xiang was about to follow, but was slapped by Cuihua: "Stupid you, why are you following at this time?" Diaphragm should be the grandson, don't go! ”

Qiu Xiang said innocently: "There is a dog next to me." ”

Cuihua scolded: "What are you talking about, there is only a dog next to you, there is a big stupid dog next to you!" ”

……

On the way to Shen's pawnshop, it was said that it was not long, but it was not far.

The two were walking in an uninhabited alley, Zhu Chen's temperament was calm, and the little red dress looked lively, following Zhu Chen, like a well-behaved girl.

Zhu Chen didn't speak, and the little red dress kept teasing Zhu Chen, and the word "like" was said countless times.

This girl is really not ashamed.

"Zhu Chen, has anyone ever said that you are heroic?" Little Red Dress asked.

Zhu Chen thought for a while: "My old man said it." ”

"Then your old man's vision is as good as mine." The little red dress praised it from the bottom of her heart.

At this moment, in the gloomy corner, suddenly there was a bow drawn into a full moon, and the barbed arrow showed a cold chill.

This bow is full of explosive power, and I am afraid that if an arrow shoots at it, it can pierce the armor.

"Stinky boy, go die!"

Shout!

The arrow from the string shot towards Zhu Chenbiao.

Zhu Chen listened to the words of the little red dress, but he didn't care about the voice behind him, he just felt that this girl was too lively.

But the little red skirt turned around unintentionally, but clearly saw an arrow shooting towards Zhu Chenbiao.

That's the Deadly Arrow.

Shen Qingqiu's face turned pale in an instant, she was just a girl in business, how could she withstand this kind of fright.

For a moment, horror filled her body, leaving her mind blank.

Somehow, she subconsciously pounced on Zhu Chen.

It is said that businessmen seek profits, but Shen Qingqiu doesn't know what's wrong with him, he would do this kind of loss-making business......
