Chapter 258: This Fourth Old Man is too dark

Insulting the holy driver, a big rebellion, that is a big disassembly.

It's just that because this person is the Seventh Prince, Zhu Di doesn't want to pursue it.

Zhu Gaoxuan hurriedly asked someone to change the bottom of the pot, and then asked the guy to prepare fresh ingredients.

Then, after adjusting the dipping sauce, it is time to start cooking the meat and vegetables in the pot.

A strong aroma hits the nose.

Zhu Di looked at the messy ingredients in the pot and wondered.

There is nothing surprising about this hot pot, how can it make those ministers full of praise?

The Seventh Prince was full of smiles at this time.

"Your Majesty, the biggest advantage of this hot pot is that the ingredients are fresh, and the taste is incomparable to other cuisines."

"And because the shabu-shabu is short, there is no loss of nutrients."

"And he also has the advantage that he doesn't get tired of eating for a long time, you can taste this meat first......"

Zhu Di sandwiched a piece of meat and sent it to his mouth, which was indeed fat but not greasy, and the meat was fragrant and delicious.

"It's a good thing."

Zhu Di, who was accustomed to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, had never been satisfied with his taste buds at this time, and devoured them for a while.

While eating, he gave orders.

"From tomorrow onwards, some ingredients will be transported into the palace in the early morning every day, and I must eat a hot pot every day, and I must also prepare a hot pot at the palace banquet......"

The Seventh Prince naturally nodded yes.

"Yes, Your Majesty......"

But before he could finish speaking, Zhu Gaoxuan interrupted him.

"But Father, there are not a lot of food reserves in this store, and the supply exceeds the demand. If you want to send it to the palace, this store is estimated to be unable to open. You see, can you do this, you dial some money over, and the retainers will help you buy fresh ingredients, and the store is only responsible for sending the base and dipping sauce to you into the palace. ”

Zhu Di frowned.

It is reported that in this store, Zhu Gaoxuan also has a shareholding.

And the store's daily profit is very high, he should have made a lot of money during this time......

Let him honor his father, he still has to worry about it.

This is excessive.

"How much silver will it cost?"

Zhu Gaoxuan directly opened his mouth.

"Five hundred taels of silver a month is enough, right?"

Five hundred taels of silver is probably enough for five hundred ordinary families to eat for half a year.

The Seven Princes couldn't help but smack their tongues.

This fourth child is too dark, right?

Although there are many people in the palace, not all of them are qualified to order.

Even if it is the master of the average palace, eating a hot pot every day, it is estimated that there are dozens of taels of silver in a month.

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was five hundred taels of silver.

That's a bit outrageous.

However, Zhu Di is the Son of Heaven today, and he usually rewards his subordinates, which are all starting at hundreds or thousands, so he doesn't think that these five hundred taels of silver are a big amount.

"It's only five hundred taels of silver, you can go to the Internal Affairs Office to get it."

Zhu Gaoxuan is a villain, and the one who laughs is called a sunny one.

"Yes, Father. Father, don't worry, the sons will definitely purchase the freshest ingredients and send them to the palace every twenty. ”

Zhu Di ate here with relish, and when he couldn't stop it, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside.

Then, after a while, there were guards from the Royal Forest Army talking back recently.

The guard looked furious and fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, the northwest Ming'an has been raining continuously for the past few days, and several villages have been flooded, before that, there has been no rain for three consecutive months, and there is no harvest, the prefect of Ming'an asks for a decree, please allocate silver for disaster relief......"

Zhu Di was in a very good mood today.

didn't want to do this, and his face changed all of a sudden.

After a battle with Takato before, and disaster relief Anseong, the treasury was empty.

Now that Ming'an has a problem again, how can he still take out the silver for disaster relief?

"The treasury is now empty, and the food and clothing in the palace have been cut a lot, which is a little difficult."

The Seventh Prince frowned and remained silent.

Zhu Gaoxuan's face was expressionless.

He really wanted to ask his cheap father, didn't he just repay his monthly vegetable money of five hundred taels of silver, and he felt that this five hundred taels of silver was not a big amount at all......

Why is there no money when you are using it now?

But he didn't dare to say these words anyway, and he could only complain secretly.

"Father, this disaster in Ming'an is serious, and we must not take it lightly. This disaster relief silver is indispensable no matter what. If the treasury can't transfer the silver, you might as well ask the masters in the palace to donate some! ”

Zhu Di's brows furrowed even tighter.

Why did this fourth child still have the idea of the people in the harem?

"How can the masters in the harem have any silver? At most, there are some jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, etc., which cannot be spent as money. ”

Zhu Gaoxuan had a smile on his face.

"But the jewelry is real money. But then again, the princesses and ladies of the harem usually like these things. may not be willing to take it out. The father must not want to wronged them. Erchen has another way......"

Zhu Di looked at him with a frown.

"Say!"

Zhu Gaoxuan nodded.

"Erchen heard that the subject country had paid tribute to a golden tripod before, it is said that the material is very good, about one person is more than one person high, if it is exchanged for silver, it is enough to solve Ming'an's urgent need."

Zhu Di's face was as gloomy as water.

The golden tripod that Zhu Gaoxuan said was placed in the courtyard outside his imperial study at this time.

The golden tripod carving is fine, and the appearance is very beautiful, and he likes it very much.

Moreover, it is said that the golden tripod means auspiciousness and symbolizes the peace of the country and the people.

Let him exchange such a mascot for silver for disaster relief, he is really reluctant to do 10,000.

But the situation on Ming'an's side is worrying, and the money can't be dialed up, which is really a headache.

Of course, the old prince could test Zhu Di's thoughts.

"The golden tripod is His Majesty's beloved thing, which is really a pity. It's not as good as this, this king has taken out a few shops at home, and he should be able to exchange them for a few thousand taels of silver, and solve the urgent need. ”

Although the old prince is rich, hundreds of people in the family have to rely on him to support him.

If you put all the shops out, you won't be able to make ends meet.

Zhu Di shook his head.

"That's it, isn't it just a golden tripod, don't want it. Fourth, you should take someone to the palace now, transport the golden tripod out, and fold it into silver for disaster relief. Remember, I will hand over the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Ming'an to you, and if it is not handled properly, I will not spare it. ”

After the words landed, he got up directly and strode away.

The Seventh Prince, who knelt on the ground to see him off, looked at the carriage in the distance, and when he got up with one hand on Zhu Gaoxuan's arm, he was already frowning.

"Fourth, the emperor seems to be very unhappy, otherwise, he probably wouldn't have pushed this tricky errand to you."

Zhu Gaoxuan smiled.

"Father must be angry at me for beating him for the idea of beating that golden tripod. But it doesn't matter, even if my father doesn't send me over, I'll ask for my own life. ”
