Chapter 1: Is a Rich Businessman More Powerful Than a County Order?
Palace.
Bongseonjeon.
"Father, Mr. Lian is out of Beijing." Zhu Biao respectfully reported to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on the dragon chair to deal with government affairs.
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head from the high recital, his face was not angry and arrogant, but the bloodshot in his eyes showed that he, the king of a country, was extremely tired.
"Jing Lian, when he leaves, all government affairs are on our shoulders!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with emotion: "If disasters and man-made disasters continue today, and the court is full of mediocre talents who are flies and dogs, we can't wait to ...... Ahem! ”
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang coughed violently a few times.
Ten years of Hongwu, Song Lian Zhishi.
At present, the national strength and people's strength are exhausted, floods and droughts are continuous, and the people in the court are busy fighting openly and secretly, and now that Song Lian is gone, the pressure of the court makes Zhu Yuanzhang a little breathless.
If you are an ordinary person, it is estimated that it will be rotten, but Zhu Yuanzhang has come from a beggar who almost starved to death step by step, and he can imagine the suffering of the people, so he naturally refuses to let the people under his rule experience the era of easy children and food.
"Father, you have to take care of the dragon's body!" Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a heavy face, and there was some worry in his eyes.
After fighting for half a lifetime, Zhu Yuanzhang is a dragon and a tiger, but in just over ten years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Yuanzhang has become more and more old, and the government is even more haggard than war.
Zhu Biao is really worried that if Zhu Yuanzhang continues to work so hard, his body will collapse in a few years.
"Don't get in the way, our body is tough, not to mention that there are so many imperial doctors in the palace, can they still regulate our body bones?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care.
"Otherwise, Erchen heard that the really powerful doctors are mostly hidden in the market, what kind of doctor is there in Changning County this time...... At the exchange conference, many hermits in Xingtan went to participate. Father might as well go there to find a famous doctor, just to relax. Zhu Biao continued to persuade.
"Famous doctor, what's so good-looking, one by one hidden in the old forest and pretending to be high, isn't it to raise fame, waiting for the price to sell? …… Wait a minute, you said Changning County? Zhu Yuanzhang said disdainfully, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and turned out a book: "It just so happens that there is a book in the imperial history, which is about Changning County."
Opening the fold, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more and more solemn.
"What's wrong, Father?" Zhu Biao was a little puzzled.
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone had a hint of murderous aura, and the music in his hand was even more crumpled: "The royal history is heard, saying that Lu Ning and Lu Zi'an, a wealthy household in Changning County, oppressed the people, corrupted and educated, bribed the officials, and made the people cry blood, eager to eat their flesh!" ”
"There are such villains, Erchen will send someone to arrest this person into Beijing!" Rao is Zhu Biao was also taken aback by Zhu Yuanzhang's murderous aura, and hurriedly asked for help.
Zhu Yuanzhang's family was crushed by the landlord and rich households, one hated corrupt officials, and the other hated being rich and unkind, Zhu Biao felt that this person named Lu Ning was afraid that it would be difficult to die happily.
"No, Changning County is not far away, Biao'er, you accompany me to take a trip, first, to see the famous doctor you said, and second, to see how this Master Lu made Changning County angry!"
Zhu Biao pursed his lips and didn't dare to refute, he knew that the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to go in person was probably to turn the matter of this person surnamed Lu into an iron case, and use it as a model to deter corrupt officials in the court.
Changning County, Lujia Compound.
Lu Ning sat in the rocking chair, fanning the wind while listening to the reports of his subordinates.
"Young master, the twelfth convenience store has been prepared, and the two fruit shops of Fu Ji and the Liu family have not yet competed for which one can supply our convenience store."
"Young master, the accounts of the five hot pot restaurants have come out, and the net profit has reached three thousand taels! It's the thing you said called chili, and the people under him haven't found it yet. ”
"Young master, the bicycle is ready, and it can be opened at any time!"
"Young master, the site of the medical exchange conference we are holding has been decorated, and only the famous doctors in western Sichuan have not yet arrived."
Seven or eight middle-aged people respectfully reported to the young man who was hanging a child, no matter how you look at the picture, it was very discordant, but several middle-aged shopkeepers were not the slightest dissatisfied, but they all looked at Lu Ning with some admiration in their eyes.
These shopkeepers used to be just ordinary people, and even domestic slaves and tenants, but in just one or two years, they have all become prominent figures in Changning County, even if the county lord sees them, they are treated politely!
All this is because they followed the young man in front of them.
Lu Ning is here, and wealth is here!
The housekeeper also came over at this time: "Young master, Liu Zhixian invites you to our restaurant for a banquet." ”
"Oh, it's time again, let Brother Liu go to the restaurant and wait for me first, I still have something to do."
The housekeeper didn't care at all that his young master dared to put up a shelf and let the dignified county magistrate wait, so he went out of the courtyard directly to reply to the county housekeeper who came to talk, and the shopkeepers didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what their young master had done.
In their eyes, the young man in front of him was a fairy-like figure, just a magistrate, and he didn't dare to be dissatisfied with Lu Ning at all.
Lu Ning waved his fan at the shopkeepers casually: "You guys did a good job, continue to be busy!" ”
"Yes!"
There was only himself left in the courtyard, Lu Ning shrank in the recliner in a more idle posture, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Alas, I finally gained some merit points, if I don't hurry up and earn more merit, Lao Tzu will be a cold fart!" ”
Lu Ning is actually an ordinary young man in the 21st century, and an accident two years ago sent him to the Ming Dynasty.
When he first came to this era, Lu Ning was quite acceptable, after all, no matter how much Zhu Yuanzhang liked to kill people, he also killed those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but he was still very kind to the people.
In his previous life, he was a bad player, with a small quilt in the office, in front of the boss, yes, yes, yes.
In ancient times, he felt that relying on his knowledge level, not being an official, and just doing business was enough to live a good life, although there was no Internet and no TV, but the days of the rich party and a group of wives and concubines were not also very fragrant?
However, before he felt comfortable for two days, the system woke up, and on the day of awakening, he told Lu Ning a bad news, and his yang life would come to an end in three years!
Fortunately, with his awakened merit system, as long as the merit points harvested are enough, he can prolong his life.
At the beginning, Lu Ning tried to collect gold, help the old woman cross the road, help the widow carry water, and help the ragged woman in the cold wind, but the life span he got was not as long as the time he spent doing good deeds.
As a result, Lu Ning had the idea of doing great things to earn merit points.
Today, two years later, he is already the richest man in Changning County, and his life span has finally been extended by more than a year, but this is far from enough.
"No, you have to make medical alcohol quickly, and wait for it to be spread through the medical conference, which is a big wave of merit points!" Lu Ning got up from the recliner and went into his laboratory.
At the same time, the city gate of Changning County.
"Father, this is ...... Changning County? Zhu Biao looked at the crowded Changning County and was a little dazed.
