Chapter 486 - Collecting Money to Do Things
Zhu Bai: "Hehe, actually. Erchen originally wanted to say it, but he felt that it was not his business, so he forgot it. ”
Lao Zhu snorted: "Say it, even if you say it wrong, we will forgive you for your innocence." Your big brother won't care. ”
Zhu Biao said: "Yes." The twelfth brother said. ”
Zhu Bai said: "The people who tick the pen are all prefects who take the initiative to grab business. The official tooth bureau looks like it is the business of the ministers, but it is actually the yamen used by the imperial court to collect tooth money. These prefects and chief secretaries are very clear in their hearts. But they still have to come to grab business. It is obvious that he wants to compete with the imperial court for taxes. Erchen was wondering if the imperial court would repeatedly inspect these people in the future and make sure that there was no problem before promoting them. ”
He didn't know if he didn't look at it, and he was startled when he saw it.
It has only been half a year, and almost half of the magistrates are already "Hu Dang" or suspected of being "Hu Dang".
I don't know how many people have defected.
He is also reminding Lao Zhu: It's time to do it. If you wait any longer, it's too late to do it, and there will be no officials in the court to use.
Lao Zhu was silent, waiting for Zhu Biao to speak.
Zhu Biao lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and said, "Thank you, Twelfth Brother, for reminding you." ”
He found a piece of paper and copied the name, and then returned the notebook to Zhu Bai.
Zhu Bai sighed: "If others know, they want me to say fake public affairs and personal vendettas." ”
Zhu Biao replied: "How so." You are doing all the official business of the imperial court. ”
Zhu Bai arched his hand: "It's good for the eldest brother to be considerate of the younger brother." ”
sneered in his heart: Hehe, you prefects and counties, do you think you can stab me in the back and be safe?
It's so beautiful!!
Lao Zhu asked: "Rebel, is there anything else?" ”
Zhu Bai replied: "When the son was wandering in the northwest, he promised others two things and asked his father to fulfill them. ”
Lao Zhu: "Hehe, we know that it is not so cheap for you to come back safely from Jiayuguan." Say, you promised others something, and you paid it back earlier. It's not good to say that the dignified prince is not trustworthy. ”
Zhu Bai said: "First, the Wuna of the Hami Kingdom is lost. He gave his sons a lot of things and begged them to ask their father for a seal. ”
Lao Zhu was like a mirror in his heart: accepting gifts or something is an excuse, how could Zhu Bai help someone ask for a seal for that little thing.
If Zhu Bai is that kind of person, I don't know how many people in Ying Tiancheng are willing to go bankrupt to beg Zhu Bai.
Although the self-proclaimed mighty king, whether the Ming Dynasty admits it or not, he is already the de facto ruler of Hami.
It's better to push the boat down the river and seal him.
What Daming wants to do in the future is also justified.
What's more, people still pay us tribute.
Old Zhu Cheng leaned at Zhu Bai: "Okay." The Hetian jade pen holder he sent, we all used it. Take people's soft hands and seal them! ”
Zhu Bai said: "There is another thing, that is, to make Li Guang the commander of Guazhou, restore his father Li He to his official position, and rebuild the tomb. There is no need to give him military rations, it is purely an empty name. ”
It is also impossible to ask Lao Zhu to admit his mistakes.
In fact, if you want to say wrong, there is nothing wrong. It can only be said that Li He was unlucky and ran into a useless boss.
The location of Guazhou is even more important than Hami.
It is better to let the Han people manage than to let the Fan people manage.
Lao Zhu: "Okay." What did he give you. ”
Zhu Bai grinned: "Suoyang." It's a retainer who brought back a sacred object. Is it good for my father to use it? ”
The corners of Lao Zhu's mouth twitched: "Even if we don't use that, it's very strong!" ”
Zhu Bai said: "There are still many good things over there, but unfortunately they can't be shipped. There are also many merchants in the west who want our silk, porcelain, and paper. Erchen thought that it would be good if the Silk Road could be restored slowly. ”
Lao Zhu: "Of course we know how to make money doing business with merchants in the Western Regions. But do you know that you rebel why we and the Song Dynasty closed this passage in the first place? ”
Zhu Bai said: "Erchen can probably guess one or two. It was to prevent the enemy from the northwest from entering the country by taking advantage of the trade route. ”
Lao Zhu shook his head: "This is one aspect, and there is." Do you think that we are the only people who can make money from the Silk Road? No, the countries of the Western Regions, the tribes of the steppe. The rebellion is to use money to buy weapons and horses to raise soldiers, and we must not only care about making money, but also guard against raising tigers. ”
Zhu Bai said: "Erchen has now counted the enemies over there, and it seems that he can't find any one who can become a climate. On the northeast side, a large number of Mongols were entrenched, and there were also Japanese pirates who came ashore to collude. ”
He said that this was also a plan to kill two birds with one stone, reminding Lao Zhu to guard against the enemy in the northeast and emphasizing Zhu Di's role.
Lao Zhu pondered for a moment and said, "Let's think about it again." Don't be in a hurry. ”
Zhu Bai knew Lao Zhu's temperament, and if he continued to talk about it, Lao Zhu's rebellious psychology was about to come up again, so he could only think of other ways to persuade him.
Lao Zhu said again: "Your fifth brother has been going to the Guanya Bureau all day recently?" ”
Zhu Bai sighed lightly: "No, he was afraid that I would run away, and said that he wanted to look at me." ”
It is estimated that in Zhu Hu's heart, the really stupid person is Zhu Bai.
Lao Zhu thought for a while and sighed: "Let him go." When you go to the northwest for a while, he wanders the streets all day long like a wandering ghost, which is quite worrying for us. ”
Zhu Bai was stunned, he didn't expect it. He thought that Zhu Hu was purely trying to guard him, but it turned out that he had nowhere to go.
I heard that since the bird's nest incident, Zhu Hu's wives and concubines have been reined in a lot.
Why is Zhu Hu still unwilling to stay at home?
Zhu Bai arrived at the official tooth bureau, and saw that Zhu Hu really came again and sat there in a daze, so he went over and asked, "Fifth brother, why don't you write a book today." ”
Zhu Hu: "I'm done." ”
Zhu Bai: "What's going on at home lately?" ”
Zhu Huan's face was hot, and he whispered: "It's nothing, it's just that the child is too noisy, and the noise gives me a headache." ”
Fatherly love is there, but not much.
When I first held the child, I felt very happy, but after more than one cup of tea, I felt painful.
But his temperament was unwilling to say it directly to hurt Feng Qingqing's hearts.
Feng Qingqing and the others thought that he liked children, so they let him hold him all the time, suffocating him.
If the child cries and drools on him, his hair stands on end, and he wants to throw the child and run.
So he could only go out quietly when the children and his wife were not up yet, and only went back before curfew.
Zhu Bai laughed: "So that's the case." Anyway, you also come to me, just continue to help me assist the tooth growth in the pricing of medicinal materials. I'll ask someone to help you sort out the book. ”
Zhu Hu's eyes lit up: "Okay." ”
The person invited by Zhu Bai to survey the "Saving the Famine Materia Medica" was Wu Bozong.
Wu Bozong has consciously not come back since Zhu Bai left the Guanya Bureau.
These three months are closed at home, the door is not out, the second door is not stepped, and I am dedicated to drawing astrological charts at home.
Zhu Bai disappeared, he thought that he would be buried forever after years of hard work to draw the astrological chart, but he didn't expect Zhu Bai to come back safe and sound.
At this time, Zhu Bai sent someone to invite him, and he went out again.
