024 Corn and love money don't die

No one's success is a fluke.

Just when Wu Zhi turned around and returned to the tent to report that Wei Zhongxian had arrived, Wei Zhongxian did not stand quietly in front of the door and wait, but paced quickly from side to side. After waiting for about a stick of incense, I watched the two red flag soldiers retreat, and the emperor's voice came from inside: "Announce him in." ”

"Slaves and maids see Your Majesty." After speaking, he knelt heavily on the ground.

Zhu Youzhen, who was already ready to abandon Wei Zhongxian, and was very angry because of the news that Qin Liangyu was seriously ill just now, saw Wei Zhongxian, who was panting, mixed with sweat and dust, thinking that this product was now running around for his own affairs, and his mood calmed down a little.

Either you have to do a good job, or you have to perform well.

"Get up." Zhu Youzhen looked at him, he was also in his forties, with a little flattering smile on his honest face. Somehow, Zhu Youzhen remembered the migrant workers who begged for a living in the labor market in later generations.

It should be inappropriate, but the feeling is somewhat similar. Go back to your own home like a hero, but who knows how to live a dog outside?

That's it, Zhu Youzhen put away the softness of his unnecessary little people brought from the later generations.

But he didn't notice that his tone had softened.

"It's not that I don't know the little fathers-in-law in the back, go clean up and come over to see me."

At this time, Wei Zhongxian dared to put out the original shelf again, and took advantage of the water poured from the little eunuch's copper kettle to snort, and then hurriedly walked in again.

Zhu Youzhen asked:

"There are still omissions and difficulties in the matter of Dingguo Gong."

Wei Zhongxian thought for a moment and replied:

"The old slaves in the study of Dingguo Gong are only sealed, and they have not yet been counted, and there is still a matter of horse farm farmers gathering grain and silver, and the rest is nothing wrong."

In the study, Zhu Youzhen also knows Wei Zhongxian's intentions, there must be a large number of correspondence and documents with courtiers, and Wei Zhongxian is hiding suspicion. There is no way, if this hot potato is not done well, it will be a bomb that detonates the imperial court.

"You go to seal it, and bring it in when the Celestial Dynasty meets. Let's talk about the racecourse. ”

"The old slave has just understood. Originally, the farmer planted alfalfa and wheat for the needs of the country's government for the transit of horses, and said that the palace would give money and grain according to the head. Who knew that the steward of the horse farm found that the farmers did not hand over the green pole crops, but concealed some ripe wheat and harvested it themselves, so he said that if the farmers did not pay compensation, they would not pay the grain. The farmers said that the grain and silver taels of the palace had never been sent down neatly, and they really couldn't get by, so they stole some wheat outside the palace horse farm. Now that the ministers have come to arrest the people in charge of the royal palace in the racecourse, the farmers feel that there may be no one to settle them, so they are ready to assemble to make trouble. ”

"Let's start with the fulcrum of Jingying. Wait until the horses are handed over to the household department and there is money. Zhu Youzhen has never heard of this crop, "You take the time to send me a little wheat." ”

Zhu Youzhen thought that sweet wheat was a common oatmeal in later generations, so he was not very interested.

"The old slave knew that His Majesty was worried about Nongsang, so he brought it by the way."

As he spoke, he brought in a plate from the outside, on which was corn the size of a palm.

Zhu Youzhen excitedly picked up one, yes, although it was short and sparse, it was indeed the corn of later generations.

Is corn already available in this era? How could there be such a misleading name as Sweet Wheat?

Zhu Youzhen looked at Wei Zhongxian, this is Yu Chen's ability. He knows who his biggest customers are. And we know how important it is to provide services that exceed customer expectations.

"You go and ask, forget it. Find some good tricks in the village, and when Lord Xu Guangqi comes in a few days, let's take a look at the ground. ”

The corn is there, look at the potatoes in Xu Guangqi's hand, it is best to have some sweet potatoes. Oops, Zhu Youzhen suddenly realized the feeling of not panicking when he had food in his hand. Speaking of sweet potatoes, I always feel like I forgot who I am?

"Come on." Zhu Youzhen peeled off a little corn, "Find me a flower pot." ”

looked at Wei Zhongxian next to him again and handed him a few grains of corn.

"Father-in-law Wei also took all kinds of things in the past, this is a good thing, it can't be said that in a disaster year, it is a life, you have to remember."

Wei Zhongxian knelt on the ground, holding a few grains of corn in both hands:

"The old slave took it as his own life."

"Okay, it's not that heavy. If it's all right, go down. Zhu Youzhen dealt with the affairs of the farmer and obtained corn seeds, and felt that today was still a good day.

"The old slave has one more thing to say." Wei Zhongxian held the corn seed tightly in one hand, bowed down, and said observantly:

"The more than 1,000 horses prepared for the border army were all old slaves, all of them were horses to watch the spring."

Bah~~ Zhu Youzhen, who had just picked up the teacup and was about to drink tea, couldn't help but be furious, and threw the teacup on the ground.

He didn't understand.

Making money from the monopoly business of tea and horses given to you by the imperial court, making money from occupying land under the pretense of royal orders, and deducting money from the tens of thousands of bitter farmers who farmed for you, Zhu Youzhen just felt greedy, just a money-loving bastard.

But you make a fuss about the horses of the border army, don't you know what to do if you cause a mutiny in the border army? was beaten in by Houjin, and this country is gone, can your Guogong still be able to do it? Or can you buy your life with money?

Oh~~ It's another teacup.

This time, Zhu Youzhen was really angry.

This period of work made him have a little real feelings for the court, the country, and the person around him for the first time.

Now Dingguogong's approach is the feeling of nakedly slapping a fool's face.

"I'm going to give ............ that pile of fat meat."

"Lord Sun Chengzong, please come in." Just as he was about to order the fat man Dingguo Gong to be pushed to Jingshi Street and light the sky lantern, Wu Zhi came in and whispered. Zhu Youzhen could only suppress the mania in his heart.

"Wei Zhongxian, give me a good look at all the adult men in the Dingguo Mansion, and if you die, you will go and kill me."

Sun Chengzong walked in, looking at the broken porcelain on the ground and the emperor who was obviously suppressed and had a blue face.

At this time, Sun Chengzong was obviously relieved.

To be honest, this emperor is very unreal in the eyes of Sun Chengzong. Or for such a period of time, although the emperor obviously relied on himself, he still rarely spoke. To be honest, he always felt that it was just a sweet dream. This old minister, who has already made a sixtieth birthday, always feels that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and he knows best what kind of virtue the emperor of the Zhu family is.

Until today, seeing the emperor who has been angry to the point of losing his temper, he has become more relaxed.

That's right, a seventeen-year-old boy can't be like an old man.
