Chapter 233: A Strange Crowd
The attitude of the tooth chief was always respectful and polite, so that Zhu Biao could not catch the slightest mistake: "Your Royal Highness forgives the sin, because the official tooth bureau is too big and the profits are huge, I am afraid that someone will have a crooked mind and forge the order of the king of Xiang, so I have to do this." Zhu Biao took a deep breath: "Also, it's useless for you to embarrass the palace." ”
Even if he put the knife on the neck of the tooth chief and forced him to give an order, the official tooth bureau below ignored it, and it was useless.
Only then did he realize that opening this room was also useless. Zhu Biao was busy for a few days, without any results, and was so depressed that he couldn't do it.
In those few days, seeing that Zhu Bai had arranged everything in a hurry, he felt that there was no difficulty.
As a result, I can't do anything when I get to myself.
In fact, think about it, if there is no Zhu Bai, there will be no official tooth bureau.
He couldn't do anything in the first place.
Zhu Biao, who was greatly hit, returned to the palace in frustration.
At dinner, Queen Ma saw that his face was not good, she was a little worried, and asked, "What's wrong with Biao'er?" But I'm tired. ”
I heard that Lao Zhu handed over all the handling of the Jiangnan flood to Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao felt pressured, and it was normal.
Lao Zhu didn't say anything, and after eating, he called Zhu Biao to the Qianqing Palace alone and asked, "What's wrong?" If there's anything you can't handle, say it and let us hear it. ”
Zhu Biao sighed lightly: "Erchen can't transfer the official tooth bureau. said that it was necessary for the twelfth brother's handwritten letter to be stamped, and the official tooth bureau below would move. ”
Lao Zhu was also surprised, and Zhu Bai's crooked words came to mind.
It's impossible to fake it......
Then a question arose in the minds of both father and son: Zhu Bai deliberately wrote the words like that, is it to prevent people from forging them?
Is it possible?
He is so small, does he have this city?
Zhu Biao asked in a low voice: "Father, how is it now?" ”
Lao Zhu: "We can't do anything about this." ”
Before, he was always a shopkeeper, and it was impossible to suddenly want to ask the officials and bureaus below to listen to him.
Besides, he also felt that the official tooth bureau was built by Zhu Bai with hard work, and it was Zhu Bai's private property, so he couldn't bear to rob it directly.
Zhu Biao blushed, and said: "Don't bother my father to write a will and ask the twelve brothers to write a note to cooperate with the local official tooth bureaus......
As he spoke, he couldn't go on anymore.
When Zhu Bai ran the bureau, he faced all kinds of criticism from the ministers, went out early and returned late to find a house to pick a partner, advertise, and attract customers.
He didn't help anything, and now he felt that the official tooth bureau was easy to use, and he would use it if he said it.
Lao Zhu nodded: "Okay, although this kid is naughty, he can still handle big things." Let's tell him, he will definitely be willing to cooperate. ”
Although I can't bear it, but thinking about the eldest son in charge of the house in the future, doesn't it mean that the younger sons have to cooperate?
The whole world belongs to kings.
What's personal?
Zhu Bai should get used to it now.
Lao Zhu wrote a letter asking someone to send it to Zhu Bai.
Zhu Biao went down.
Today, it happened to be Liu Bowen who was teaching Zhu Biao about the art of war, and when he saw his rare distraction, he simply stopped: "Your Highness, what is the difficult thing?" ”
Zhu Biao sighed, talked about the cause and effect, and then asked: "Master, I always feel that I have violated the courtesy, righteousness and shame of a gentleman by doing this. ”
Liu Bowen was very unhappy when he heard that Zhu Bai had so many means to control the official tooth bureau.
He saluted Zhu Biao: "Your Highness, don't think so." After His Royal Highness ascended the throne, the whole world was not the king's land, and the shore of the land was not the king's ministers. Even the king of Xiang is your courtier. As a king, it is natural to ask your courtiers to cooperate in times of emergency. Besides, His Highness is not for personal pleasure, but for the people of the world. ”
Zhu Biao smiled reluctantly: "That's what I said." ”
Liu Bowen said solemnly: "Your Highness must not be soft-hearted. If you let it go, King Xiang will grow up in the future, and it will be difficult to control him. It's best to start restricting him now. ”
Zhu Biao's heart trembled, staring at Liu Bowen: Master, what does this mean......
Liu Bowen looked back with a firm gaze: Yes, that's what it means.
Zhu Bai frowned and stood up and saluted: "Thank you Master for your teaching." But the Master taught me to be a man first and then a king. If you have to plan for your own brother, it is definitely not what a righteous gentleman should do. Students can't do it. ”
Liu Bowen sighed softly: "Your Highness is benevolent." Weichen naturally knows that you can't do that. But you must at least learn to use the King of Xiang, instead of always letting the King of Xiang use you. For example, this official tooth bureau, from this disaster relief, His Royal Highness should understand its role, so we must find a way to take it back to the imperial court as soon as possible. Since the emperor wrote an edict to the king of Xiang, it is better to take advantage of this time. ”
Zhu Bai received Lao Zhu's letter, and sure enough, without any hesitation, he helped Zhu Biao write a note to all the official dental bureaus, saying that within three months, if Zhu Biao needed to mobilize medicinal materials and food, all official dental bureaus must obey.
It seems that he is very cooperative, but in fact, he also keeps a hand.
First of all, Zhu Biao could only mobilize grain and medicinal materials, and secondly, he set a time limit.
Liu Bowen knew and hated it: they all said that this kid was reckless, only I knew that he was actually cunning and cautious.
For example, this strip is written very smoothly, which not only does not disobey Lao Zhu, but also prevents others from getting involved in his official tooth bureau.
Now that the strip is there, it's just waiting to move things.
Zhu Biao was ambitious and eager to try, waiting for the prefects to be in a hurry.
As a result, although it rained for a long time this time, the prefects did not report the flood.
Zhu Biao was puzzled and asked someone to send an inquiry.
The answers of several prefects were similar: the king of Hunan ordered the canal and the sewers in the city to be dredged two months ago, and the stagnant water was drained quickly, and there was no waterlogging for the time being.
Zhu Biao was even more depressed: Alas, Zhu Bai had already done everything in advance.
I tossed for a long time, but it was all in vain.
-----
Zhu Bai came out of Hangzhou, stayed in Shaoxing for one night, and then went to Ningbo.
The road is okay, the scenery is beautiful, and the weather is good.
It was just from Ningbo that he found a problem.
There are more and more people behind them, more and more.
It started with one or two people, and after walking for less than an hour, it became a long line.
There were not only pedestrians, but also carriage riders and cart pushers.
Zhu Bai muttered in his heart: It doesn't look like he is asking for food, why are you following me?
It's always weird to have a big tail behind it.
Are we in the way?
Although according to the rules, although the people can take the official road, they must give way when they encounter an official emergency.
Are the people afraid that they will be punished beyond me, so they will follow me?
But I'm not in a hurry, so I'll let them go first.
Zhu Bai beckoned to Zhang Yu: "Master Zhang, let's step aside and let them go first." ”
But as soon as they stopped, all the people behind them stopped.
Zhu Bai gasped: "It's strange, what are these people doing?" ”
