In the face of Zhu Gui's words, beads of sweat appeared on the faces of the representatives of the three major families, they didn't expect this acting king's appetite to be so big.

At this moment, they no longer dare to think of each other as a young man who is only fourteen years old, but a male lord with a prosperous martial arts strategy like the current emperor.

However, after all, the three major families have been entrenched in Nanjing for so many years, and they will not be easily frightened by Zhu Gui's words.

In the end, it was Old Man Shi who took the lead and said: "Lord Wang, this matter is very important, and we can't make the decision, we can report this matter to the family, and then report to the prince when there is a result, how about it?" ”

The other two nodded their heads as well.

Zhu Gui frowned slightly and said: "What you said makes sense, but this king has limited time, only give you one day, if the three of you have not achieved results at this time tomorrow, then this king will treat you as having to fight against the acting king's mansion." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." The three of them said in unison.

Now the other party is not only a vassal king, but also an official appointed by the emperor to manage the business world, and their previous relationships are no longer useful.

If they offend the acting king in front of them, let alone whether they can do business again in the future, it is even a question of whether they can leave Nanjing safely.

How the Zhu family got the world and how they dealt with those meritorious ministers, they haven't forgotten it.

So the three of them left the palace with relatives.

Zhu Gui took two more sips of tea to moisten his throat, and he was still a little uncomfortable with the pretentious way of speaking just now.

However, these guys are all old foxes, and once they show their flaws, they may be led by the other party, and Zhu Gui is the most reluctant to deal with this kind of intriguing person.

"Come out, everyone is gone, when are you going to overhear there?"

Zhu Gui put down the teacup and said with a smile at the back door of the living room.

"You found out, Lord Wang, do you really want to cooperate with those three major families? I've heard my father say before that these businessmen have done a lot of shady things. ”

Xu Miaoqing Lian moved lightly, walked to Zhu Gui and sat down.

Zhu Gui naturally took her hand and said: "What Xu Guogong said is true, but any capital or accumulation process has unsightly means, and its momentum has been achieved, if it cannot be used by this king, it will be a bit too wasteful." ”

Not only do these three families have huge wealth and many shops, but their networks have accumulated over the years.

If this was in Datong Mansion, Zhu Gui could also replace their status and resources with other merchants.

But this is Nanjing, so many eyes are watching, there is an emperor and the court pressing on it, he, the vassal king, can't do it to the point of covering the sky with one hand, as long as the flaws are exposed, I don't know how many people want to pull him off the horse.

So Zhu Gui adopted the safest way to solve this problem this time.

It's just that this time, after waiting for the representatives of these three families to leave, Zhu Gui did not leave the meeting room, but still seemed to be waiting for someone.

This made Xu Miaoqing, who originally wanted to pull him out of the street, a little puzzled.

"What are you still sitting here doing, Lord Wang? While it's not too late, let's go out for a walk, there is a temple fair in the north of the city tonight. ”

Xu Miaoqing took Zhu Gui's hand and was about to walk out, but he didn't pull it.

Zhu Gui pondered: "Temple fair? You really should go and play, but you have to wait a minute, it's still too late, and there's still a guest yet. ”

"Guests? What guests? As soon as Xu Miaoqing finished speaking, he saw a subordinate running in in a hurry: "Lord, princess, the Guo family is here." ”

Zhu Gui just nodded, and then motioned for the other party to bring people in.

He had already guessed that the three major families of the Guo family would secretly observe, so when he saw them coming to the Dai Wang's Mansion again, he would definitely make some moves.

It's just that he didn't expect the other party's movements to be so fast, it seems that there should be the other party's eyeliner in the Daiwang Mansion.

But this is just a trivial matter, and Zhu Gui didn't care too much.

Soon, Guo Huanzhi, who had been here once last time, walked in.

"I've seen the prince, princess."

Although Guo Huanzhi is nominally Zhu Gui's cheap cousin, he is the largest in the royal family, and he can only salute according to the rules.

It's just that this time his face is not as confident as last time, but looks a little stiff.

Zhu Gui nodded in return, and then asked his subordinates to bring a chair to Guo Huanzhi.

How to explain that the face is also a family, even if it is for the sake of his mother Guo Huifei's face, Zhu Gui has to make a show.

Guo Huanzhi's face was a little calm when he saw Zhu Gui like this, but as soon as he sat down, he said: "Lord Wang, the patriarch has agreed to the previous request of the prince, and the Guo family will deposit a sum of money to Datong Bank, which is regarded as a pledge for the country to join the Datong Chamber of Commerce, and I only hope that the prince will not cooperate with those three families again." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Since everyone is here to make money, why can't we sit down together and have a good discussion? It's the so-called harmony that makes money. ”

Zhu Gui said.

Guo Huanzhi's face froze, and after pondering for a moment, he continued: "The Guo family can support any decision of the prince, after all, we are a family, but the relationship forces behind the three families are very complicated, maybe they won't have anything when they make money, but once something happens, they are likely to fall into the well, and I hope the prince will think twice." ”

"And the grass people have collected and sorted out the network of relationships and forces behind these three here, and the prince will know it at a glance."

After Guo Huanzhi finished speaking, he handed over a roster.

Zhu Gui took it and put it on the table next to him, but he didn't open it.

"What you said about this king is known, and there is indeed some truth, this king will consider your opinion, you go back first, this king has something to deal with later."

Zhu Gui directly issued an eviction order.

Guo Huanzhi looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

But Zhu Gui had already pulled Xu Miaoqing to leave the living room with the roster, and he could only return in a huff.

Guo Huanzhi put the roster in the safe he had redeemed from the system store, and then began to change clothes.

Now that there are people in the palace who can be bought by the Guo family, it means that it is not safe here.

And once this roster is exposed, it is likely to cause another bloody storm, so before Zhu Gui thinks about how to dispose of this roster, he still has to ensure that it is not obtained by others.

As for the content of this roster, Zhu Guidao didn't care much.

In any era, corruption and bribery are unavoidable.

After doing all this, he and Xu Miaoqing got into the carriage and headed towards the north of the city together with Xu Miaoqing, accompanied by two guards who also made up.

There were too few entertainment facilities in the Ming Dynasty, except for the teahouse, the storyteller was a temple fair.
