Chapter 149: Big Money

Zhu Jin was busy finding Zhang Anshi.

"Uncle, uncle......"

Zhu Jin looked anxious.

looked at Zhang Anshi with a blank eye, and still held a book in his hand.

"Uncle, let's ...... Our house is not easy to sell, and until now, we have only bought more than 30 houses, and those who read are ...... One by one, they all just watched, uncle, are we at a loss? It took so much money to get out of the library......"

Zhang Anshi has been very idle these days.

He actually misses the four murderers very much, although he always feels that their brains don't seem to be enough, but he stays with the four murderers and is down-to-earth.

Now, he is bored, and he sees that Zhu Jin is as anxious as an ant in a hot pot.

"What's the hurry, what's the hurry?" Zhang Anshi looked at him calmly and said: "Where is this, scholars, their brains are not open, they are as good as monkeys, how can they say that they will buy it." ”

"Then this ......" Zhu Jin looked at Zhang Anshi cautiously.

Zhang Anshi took a sip of tea without hesitation, and then said: "The price will rise, starting tomorrow, our house will rise by fifty taels." ”

"Ah......" Zhu Jin was surprised: "This ...... This obviously can't be sold, why is it still rising? ”

He really doesn't understand this operation!

Zhang Anshi said confidently: "If you can't sell it, it will rise, if you can sell it, what will I rise?" ”

Zhu Jin's mind was dazed, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, so he paused and said, "Isn't it true that the more people buy things, the more expensive the price becomes?" Scarcity is expensive. ”

Zhang Anshi smiled: "If there are many people who buy, we will have small profits and quick turnover, and if there are few people who buy, if you increase the price, people will pay attention." ”

"But even if you pay attention, I'm afraid you'll be scolding your mother." Zhu Jin drooped his head and said.

Zhang Anshi said: "Black and red are also red, you know a bird." Oh, yes, there's everything else, I've got it all for me. ”

Zhu Jin nodded helplessly, but did not refute again, and said, "Yes, the villain knows." ”

Zhang Anshi saw his worried look, and comforted him kindly: "Don't be afraid, this matter is very safe." ”

What else could Zhu Jin say, he didn't dare to disobey Zhang Anshi's order, so he hurriedly arranged it, and then ...... Then he began to let people hang up signs.

As soon as the sign of this price was hung out, it caused people all over the capital to laugh.

No one bought the house at all, and it went up.

Nowadays, there are many people who read books here in Qixia, and naturally, many people will make this a joke.

…………

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" Yisha hurriedly returned to the palace to report the situation, and came to Zhu Di out of breath.

Zhu Di had been looking forward to his return with great interest, so he said, "What, what's wrong?" ”

Yizha slowed down, and then said truthfully: "It is true that the flow of people is very large, and there are many times more people who go there to study, and the slaves and maids also see many talents from Zhenjiang and come together." ”

Zhu Di suddenly turned red with joy: "Look, I made a big deal with a little means, haha...... Look, how is this a method? ”

Yizha said with a bitter face: "There are many people...... In order to attract readers, Cheng Enbo also built a second district, set up a poetry club, invited Confucianism to teach, and spent a lot of silver. ”

Zhu Di listened, but he didn't panic at all, and even said calmly: "I'm not worried, he has a way to get silver, let Jinyiwei inquire and know." ”

His Majesty is not worried anymore, what does he still say? Yisha had no choice but to nod and say, "If there is any news from the slave maid, report it immediately." ”

……

After a few more days, Qixia is still full of people.

But what Qixia School Palace is still the same, the price has risen, and there are still very few houses sold.

Many people excitedly discussed that at this moment, Zhang Anshi was finally going to lose money.

At the beginning, Zhang Anshi caused many people to jump off the building, and many scholars were killed and brought back to life.

Nowadays, all the people who read books all over the world wish that he could be unlucky.

Therefore...... Many people began to really pay attention to the Qixia Academy.

More and more people, in addition to chatting about various activities in the library, are paying more attention to the school palace.

"Then the house can also be sold for money? It's crazy...... Haha......"

"The surname Zhang earns the silver of the severed children and grandchildren."

"Lack of virtue, really lack of virtue."

"There is a scholar, named Zhang Wenfu, who actually bought twenty sets, I heard that he is a scholar in Hangzhou, and his family has silver."

"Haha...... When I bought the book, wasn't it enough to be fooled? Who is still on this An Shi now, that Zhang Wenfu is really stupid. ”

There are more and more people chatting, and it seems that everyone wants to see Zhang Anshi, and this news appeared on the streets and alleys like crazy.

Moreover, this topic has been flourishing for a long time, and it seems that the slightest disturbance there can cause huge public opinion.

In fact, this is also understandable, everyone is suffering from the pit, at this time, if you are still fooled, then it is really a group of big fools.

…………

And this discussion on the streets and alleys appeared on Zhu Di's desk one by one.

Zhu Di looked at these reports, his eyes were straight, obviously he couldn't be as calm as before.

"I ...... Is it a loss this time? ”

Yisha smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe." ”

Zhu Di took a deep breath: "How is it possible, Zhang Anshi is so capable." ”

"The slave maid thinks that Cheng Enbo should want to use the long-line fishing method."

"Long-line fishing?"

"Even if you lose money, you have to make a library, although this library costs countless silver, but the surrounding land is worth a lot, so I smashed hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, just waiting for those readers to take the bait."

Zhu Di's face became solemn: "In this way, these fish are not hooked?" ”

"Now it seems that this is how it should be." Yisha still smiled bitterly.

Zhu Di suddenly frowned and said: "Join his mother, this group of scholars, they have learned well, this fish has become fine, what should I do?" ”

Yisha couldn't cry or laugh: "Maybe...... The deal was a loss, but Your Majesty ...... It doesn't matter, with Cheng Enbo here, he can always come up with other ways. ”

Zhu Di was unwilling: "This group of damn scholars, I only need their silver, and I don't want their lives, why are they so good?" I still believe it, and I really vacate a lot of palaces as storehouses! ”

Yisha thought for a while and said, "Why don't you ...... Let Cheng Enbo sell the house cheaper? The slave maid felt that even if she couldn't sell it for a thousand taels, it would be a good ...... One or two hundred taels, it can still be sold. ”

Zhu Di's face was uncertain, but he still felt unwilling, and paused and said: "Let Zhang Anshi make up his mind, he is good at this, but the road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high, I am a little worried." Don't look at those people who read books like nerds, they are actually very good, and if they are fooled once, I am afraid that they will not go a second time. ”

Yisha nodded, he was worried that Zhu Di would not be able to accept this failure.

After all, on weekdays, I am used to wool.

This time, instead of stealing the chicken, he lost a handful of rice.

However, after Zhu Di was upset for a while, he was quite calm at this time.

Zhu Di said: "I'm going to cut back on food and clothing, these days, let the palace stop and stop, save money, I want to take precautions, so Annan doesn't know how long it will take." ”

He also said: "The slave obeys the order." ”

…………

Zhang Liang hurried from Hangzhou to Qixia.

Here he found his son, who lived in an inn.

As soon as he saw his son Zhang Wenfu, he was angry.

Thunder!

Directly picked up a stick, chased after Zhang Wenfu to beat, and said: "Brute, you brute, you study on weekdays, let you stay in the capital to study, you are in the capital, just squander it all day, after all, you are still my son, I am the father...... Throw all the money into the water......

Zhang Wenfu ran fast, and Zhang Liang surrounded the table, and a King of Qin came around the pillar.

Zhang Wenfu hurriedly ran and said, "Dad, I have something to say, why did you come to the capital." ”

"Ahem...... "Zhang Liang is not as young as Zhang Wenfu after all, and he was tired and panicked after running a few laps.

But after listening to Zhang Wenfu's words, he continued to wave his stick angrily, continued to chase, and scolded: "Can I not come?" If I don't come, our family business will be lost in your hands, you brute, 20,000 taels of silver, where do we have so much silver? You little brute, you are so dead, you go and collude with people like Zhang Anshi, he eats people and doesn't spit out bones...... You ............"

Zhang Wenfu had no choice but to continue to hide, and said urgently: "It's not like taking 20,000 taels of silver at a time, Dad, for 20 years, just take 4,000 taels of silver out, our family has a big business." ”

Zhang Liang almost vomited blood: "Our Zhang family has never lent money to others, when did you ask someone for a loan?" Brute, brute, how did I give birth to such a thing as you! A house of 1,000 taels is still the size of a sparrow, and you still buy 20 houses! You...... You...... Do you know that your grandfather knows about this, and he is so angry that he can't get up in bed, if I don't kill you today, I will take your surname. ”

Outside the house, people from the same inn came to see the excitement, and everyone laughed.

Zhang Liang chased Zhang Wenfu, and finally caught it, and the stick in his hand was drawn.

Zhang Wenfu sighed.

In the eyes of the spectators, it was as if the show had reached its climax, and they all cheered.

"Look, if you fall for Zhang Anshi, you can still have a good one if you fall for Zhang Anshi."

"I gave birth to such a son, and I have to kill him."

"Tut-tut......"

Zhang Liang was angry, and there was no strength left for this stick, Zhang Wenfu directly broke his head and bled out, lying on the ground motionless.

At this moment, Zhang Liang was frightened, he was angry, scolded and scolded, and beaten, but he didn't really want to kill his son!

For a while, he rushed forward crying, sobbing: "What's wrong, what's wrong?" Oh my God, my son, why am I so miserable...... I run my family business well, how can I encounter such a thing, that Zhang Anshi harms my whole family......"

As he spoke, Zhang Liang desperately beat his heart.

Zhang Wenfu is quite conscious, but his head is bleeding and he looks a little miserable.

But at this time, he didn't dare to respond, so he could only continue to pretend to be dead.

Zhang Liang wailed again: "Come on, come on, go and ask for a doctor, my God, why did you become like this, that black-hearted thief, son, you are the one who knocked on the book, you fell for that Zhang Anshi......"

Tears are going to drain up.

One by one, the spectators were even more excited, and they were discussing: "Look at ...... Look...... This is what Zhang Anshi harmed people. ”

"It is said that it cost 20,000 taels of silver, isn't it crazy?"

"Fortunately, only the deposit was given...... It is said that there are also several thousand taels...... The money behind him has not been paid, if not......"

The crowd said excitedly.

At this moment, someone hurried upstairs with a few servants.

After this person ascended the stairs, the servants around him pushed the crowd away, and when the man in the scarf and Confucian shirt came over with his hands behind his back, this person said: "Zhang Wenfu, which one is the virtuous brother of Zhang Wenfu?" ”

Everyone pointed to the house.

The man walked in, but when he entered the house, he was a little surprised to see this.

This person looked at Zhang Liang and said, "Dare to ask if you are Zhang Wenfu?" ”

Zhang Liang was grief-stricken at this time, but after all, he was also a big family, and at this point, he couldn't let people see jokes, so he only said sadly: "The dog is not good, it makes people laugh, this is ......"

He pointed to Zhang Wenfu: "He is the dog Zhang Wenfu." ”

At this time, Zhang Wenfu opened his eyes suddenly, and turned over: "You are ......"

"The contemptible person's surname is Zhou, his name is Zhou Zheng, and his cheap name is not enough to worry about." Zhou Zheng made a gesture towards Zhang Wenfu.

Zhou Zheng......

Many people were suspicious.

This name is somewhat familiar.

Zhenjiang ...... It seems that there is a Zhou family, I heard that they have a lot of fame and a huge family business, and the owner of their family's house seems to be called Zhou Zheng.

Zhang Wenfu smiled bitterly, not knowing the other party's intention, so he said: "Dare to ask...... Brother Zhou...... What is the so-called here? ”

Zhou Zheng looked behind him.

There are still a lot of spectators there.

He seemed to want to be able to talk privately.

But now the Zhang family's father and son have no intention of hospitality.

Seeing this situation, although Zhou Zheng didn't know what was going on, he also knew that it was better to hurry up and explain his intentions at this time.

So, he smiled and said, "I heard that Brother Zhang Xian has twenty sets of mansions in the school palace in his hands, right?" ”

When Zhang Liang heard this, his face turned blue again, and he dared to ...... This is another one to see the joke?

Zhang Wenfu cautiously glanced at his father, for fear of irritating him again, so he cautiously replied: "I was confused for a while...... I bought twenty sets. ”

Zhou Zheng listened to it and laughed: "Everyone spreads it like this, the old man still thinks it's fake, this is the best, I don't know if Brother Zhang Xian, can you let two sets be contemptible?" ”

"What? Let's make two sets?" Zhang Wenfu was a little confused.

Zhou Zhengdao: "Yes, the contemptible people also want to buy two sets." ”

Zhang Wenfu looked stunned, and then looked at his father.

And that Zhang Liang was also stunned, isn't this another trick?

Zhang Wenfu said: "Do you really want it?" ”

"Yes. Now is it. Zhou Zheng said very simply: "Let's follow the current price in the school palace now, in the past few days, they have increased the price several times, from one thousand taels to one thousand and fifty taels, right?" Silver...... I can teach someone to pick it up at any time, I can ask the guarantor to come immediately, and we can repair the deed now. ”

He's crisp and neat.

Each house was actually fifty taels of silver more expensive.

Zhang Wenfu was dizzy, feeling that the other party's words were a little incredible.

He glanced cautiously at his father again.

After hearing this, Zhang Liang said, "Do you really want to buy it?" ”

"Really buy." Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "There are two sons in the family who want to come to Nanjing to study, and it happens that this place is ...... It's not bad, just buy two houses, so that they can study here with peace of mind. ”

Zhang Liang said: "Okay, then you take the silver now." ”

Zhou Zheng immediately glanced at the servant behind him.

A moment later, someone came with a box of silver, and not only that, but there was also a messenger from Qixia, who was obviously an invited guarantor.

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Can it be delivered now?" ”

The spectators, one by one, could barely breathe, and they all watched all this in amazement.

Obviously, many people have never seen so much silver in their lifetimes.

Zhou Zhengdao: "This duke has always been in Qixia as the chief of security, and he will be the guarantor, how about it?" ”

Zhang Wenfu was about to nod.

Zhang Liang suddenly said: "Forget it, don't sell it." ”

Zhou Zheng was stunned for a moment, and his face was a little unsightly: "Didn't Fang Cai say yes?" ”

"Now I've changed my mind and don't sell it." Zhang Liang replied simply.

Zhou Zheng was a little embarrassed, and his face turned cold: "Why didn't Fang Cai say it?" When I take the money and ask a guarantor to come, will I not sell it? To be a man, you must always be true to your word. ”

Zhang Liang said cheekily: "This house belongs to my family, I can sell it if I want to, and if I don't want to sell it, I won't sell it!" Doesn't it take such a big deal to think about it? If you want to buy a house, you can go to another house to buy it, so what kind of school palace, isn't it still selling? Why come to us? ”

Zhou Zheng immediately understood what the other party meant.

This old fox deliberately deceived him, just to see if he came to buy it sincerely, and when he took the money and asked the guarantor to come, this man felt that he was sincere, but refused to sell it.

Zhou Zheng snorted coldly and said, "If there is still a house for sale in the Xue Palace, why do you need to find your head?" Hmph, the villain who doesn't believe in his words. ”

After that, with a black face, he seemed to feel unwilling: "Add another two hundred taels, one thousand two hundred and fifty taels, will you sell it?" ”

Zhang Liang shook his head like a rattle: "Don't sell, don't sell, don't sell if you don't sell, this is my family heirloom, I want to pass it on to my children and grandchildren, sell the house, isn't this a loser?" ”

Zhou Zheng's anger was not light, gritted his teeth, brushed his sleeves and left.

The spectators gasped.

The house of the school palace...... It's all sold out.

It's not that ...... Is there 500 sets?

It's only been a few days, and it's all sold out?

How can it be...... Obviously, everyone thinks it's black-hearted.

It's clear that everyone is laughing at each other.

There are so many wrongdoers in the world.

Everyone looked at Zhang Wenfu......

By the way, someone actually bought this house for 1,250 taels, doesn't it mean that he earned more than 5,000 taels of silver in just a few days with these 20 houses in hand.

Five thousand taels, what a terrible amount, how many people can't earn it in a few lifetimes.

Zhang Wenfu was still in a daze.

Zhang Liang was in a hurry, and immediately closed the door to prevent the spectators from continuing to watch the excitement.

As soon as he turned around, he immediately said to Zhang Wenfu: "Have you paid the balance yet?" ”

"There is still a part of the settlement, but there is a deposit......

"Bastard, what are you still doing in a daze, go settle the final payment."

Zhang Wenfu was surprised and said, "Dad...... It's not ......"

"Say you're big." Zhang Liang scolded him: "Are you stupid or not, we have earned, we are going to make a fortune, this is at least 5,000 taels of silver...... Five thousand taels...... This is not 20,000 taels of silver to earn 5,000, we only took out a down payment of a few thousand taels of silver. ”

After that, the excited Zhang Liang hugged Zhang Wenfu in his arms: "My good son, my good son, my father didn't misunderstand you, and he has always told people that you are the only one who can boost my Zhang family's business in the future, oops...... Still stunned what to do, go, go, let's hurry to the school palace. ”

"Go...... What to do? ”

"Let's find out the news!"

"Oh, oh......"

The father and son opened the door again, and the spectators outside the door had not yet dispersed.

One by one, they looked at the father and son with envious eyes.

Who would have thought that he would be so dignified and laugh at people, and now ...... It seems that the person who became a joke was himself.

…………

The news has spread far and wide.

Almost everyone is desperately trying to find out the news of the Xue Palace.

It has only been a few days, and the situation has been directly reversed.

This is unimaginable to almost everyone.

But on the contrary, such a thing happened in front of me, and others couldn't believe it.

Some even think...... This must be Zhang Anshi's ghost, deliberately releasing this news, just to deceive people with a black heart.

As a result, many people began to dig deeper.

Detectable results...... It was unexpectedly unexpected.

It's really sold.

There are more than 500 houses, with names and surnames, and many of them are people who are thunderous on weekdays.

Family...... I really took out the money. There are people with good deeds to ask, and the other party actually didn't deny it, and these people will never be in collusion with Zhang Anshi and partner to deceive people, and they are also tired of family business, and they can't afford to lose that person.

All of a sudden...... Inside and outside Nanjing, there was silence, and everyone was like mourning, as if all of a sudden, the spirit was emptied.

Zhu Jin hurriedly took the account and sent it to Zhang Anshi, and said excitedly: "Uncle, 620,000 taels of silver, 570 sets of houses, haha...... Just such a piece of land...... More than 600,000 taels of silver, if this land is a paddy field, I am afraid that it is not worth 5,000 taels. ”

Zhang Anshi said calmly: "Don't get excited, it's just the beginning, just make some money, look at you." ”

Zhu Jin looked suspicious and said, "The villain doesn't understand a little. ”

When he looked at Zhang Anshi, his eyes turned into admiration, and his eyes began to bloom with stars, just like a person who had been released from prison and saw a sow.

Zhang Anshi crossed his feet, in front of Zhu Jin, he had never hidden his selfishness, and said, "You ask." ”

Zhu Jin said: "Uncle, such an expensive price...... It stands to reason that no one should buy it, and this market is all ridiculing our house, but ......"

Zhang Anshi looked at him deeply: "It seems that ...... You're still a little confused about what you're doing, so I'll teach you a lesson. ”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "What about this deal, it's like this, our price itself is unaffordable for most people." But have you ever thought that this thing is not intended to be sold to them at all? ”

Zhu Jin nodded subconsciously: "Yes, yes." ”

Zhang Anshi continued: "So who are we selling our more than 500 houses to? Are those who really have a lot of money, more than a thousand taels of silver? For some people, of course, they may not be able to save for a lifetime, but for some people, it is actually just a drizzle, and people may have a big birthday, and the thousand taels of silver will be gone, so ...... Let me ask you, is this thousand taels expensive? ”

Zhu Jin was stunned for a moment: "This ......"

Zhang Anshi said: "So whether it is expensive or not, the question is not how valuable it is, but how ...... In the eyes of different people, some people think that things are expensive, but in the eyes of others, they are actually just daily use. So...... I just asked you to raise the price, what is the purpose of the price increase, is to let those good deeds scold one by one. ”

"The more they scold, the more the house becomes synonymous with nobility, the more fierce the scolding, the more people know about it, when the house is known by the whole world, it will naturally ...... In their eyes, this place is a step away from the library, the price is cheap, and there are low-interest loans, which is equivalent to not giving away money for nothing, placing an industry here, and occasionally letting the children live here, and infect the culture here, it is simply too cost-effective. ”

Zhu Jin suddenly realized: "It turns out that the more fiercely others scold, the better our business will be." ”

"That's right." Zhang Anshi said with emotion: "This is the silver earned by using my name, for this, I don't know how much I have been scolded and how many grievances I have suffered." ”

Zhu Jin said: "Uncle, you want to open a little." ”

Zhang Anshi immediately smiled: "For Your Majesty, for the sake of the country, and for our great cause, my grievances are nothing." ”

"Great cause?" Zhu Jin complained a little in his heart, whose great business is staring at other people's money bags.

Zhang Anshi continued: "Prepare another thousand sets for me, in a few days...... Listed. ”

"Still selling?" Zhu Jin was stunned: "Uncle, didn't you mean...... Only those who really don't get bad for money...... will ......"

Zhang Anshi said: "At first, the people who bought it were not bad silver, but soon, there will be people on the market who are looking around to buy, so that the price of this second-hand is afraid to rise, and at this time there will be many people who agree with its value, once someone agrees with its value, then there are people who buy silver, or people who can barely grit their teeth and buy, will also swarm to buy, this truth, do you understand?" ”

Zhu Jin: "......"

Zhang Anshi sighed: "Evil, evil, tomorrow take a thousand taels of silver, go to the temple to donate some sesame oil money, I have a good heart...... I can't bear it, and I want to do a little more good deeds. By the way, the new house will increase for me, 1,500 taels a set, and not a penny will be missing. “

Zhu Jin: "......"

Zhang Anshi said: "What are you still doing in a daze?" ”

Zhu Jin nodded: "The small one understands, and the small one will do it." ”

Zhang Anshi sighed in his heart, to be honest...... The leeks of the scholars are really easy to cut, and there is no way to do it, who is to blame for this, who makes the rich in the world have no place to stand?

Earn the money of these people who are strangers in the fields...... It's not a shame, just ...... Let these rich people ...... Give me Zhang Anshi some sesame oil money.

…………

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

He also ran fast, he seemed to have regained his youth all of a sudden, and even the long-lost male hormones were surging in his body at this moment.

"Your Majesty...... It's amazing, it's a big fortune, it's a big deal, it's a house...... It's all sold...... All sold...... Just hundreds of acres of land...... They were all sold out. ”

Yisha said, when he entered the threshold, because he was too excited, he was tripped directly, and with an ouch, his body was crooked, and his face hit the ground first.

Zhu Di was originally pillowing Queen Xu's legs, snoring and napping.

Hearing this, he turned over: "How is it possible, someone will be fooled like this?" Doesn't it say that people who read books become fine? I'm still dreaming about this! ”
