Chapter 212: The two uncles and nephews are different

Shen Jing glanced at him, sneering in his heart, what regret was not at the beginning, it is not that he is afraid of Lord Li's current power!

"I can tell you what I said, but whether I blame it or not depends on Lord Li's own meaning."

Shen Jing said lightly.

Shen Bin tried to squeeze out a smile: "Then thank you to the virtuous nephew!" ”

After the handover of the two was over, Shen Jue praised Shen Jing again: "The virtuous nephew is really a good vision, he followed Li Juma when he first entered the court, and now Li Juma has won the trust of the saints, and he is a pivotal figure in the court, and the virtuous nephew follows him to do things, and the future is just around the corner......

Shen Jue praised Shen Jing again and again, but he never left Li Jing.

Shen Jing coped with a few words, and finally found that he really couldn't nag him, so he said helplessly: "Uncle Tang might as well say it directly." ”

"Uh, this, well, we're family, I'll have something to say."

Shen Jue stopped going around the bend, and said bluntly: "Don't hide it, I admire Li Juma very much, I want to ask my nephew to introduce me on my behalf, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

When Shen Jing heard this, he frowned slightly: "If you want to see Master Li, just go and ask for a meeting, why do you need a little nephew to introduce you?" ”

"Uh, hehe."

Shen Jue smiled awkwardly, although it was not impossible for him to ask for a meeting by himself, but the effect was definitely not as good as someone to introduce him, after all, he was a small outsider, and people would definitely look down on him.

"Li Juma is busy with official business, and I don't dare to disturb it without permission, so I have to ask the virtuous nephew first to see when Li Juma is free."

Shen Jing's eyes paused slightly, and he also understood in his heart that this cousin just wanted to use his relationship to get close to Li Wei.

After a deep groan, he nodded in response, just like the words that Shen Jue put on his lips, they are a family after all.

In this era, the concept of family is deep-rooted, and when a person is developed, he must definitely pull the family chicken dog to ascend to heaven, so a carefree person like Li Wei can only take care of himself.

When Shen Jue saw that he agreed, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he got up and arched his hand: "Thank you, nephew!" ”

"Uncle don't be polite, like you said, after all, we are a family."

Shen Jing also immediately stood up and said.

"That's right, that's right!" Shen Jue smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Shen Jing paused after speaking, and kindly reminded him: "Uncle Tang, if you see Lord Li in the future, it is better to call Lord Li, Lord Li doesn't seem to like the title of concubine very much." ”

Although this is just a small thing for Li Wei, for the people who follow him to do things, the small things of the leader are also big things in their eyes.

When Shen Jue heard this, he was a little surprised: "Oh, is it? ”

Shen Jing nodded lightly.

Shen Jue's eyes suddenly flickered slightly, according to the rules of officialdom, it is generally called the highest position by calling others, such as Li Wei now, he is also a squire, a horse, or the chief official of the Minghuang Bank, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, etc., according to the current system of the imperial court, the horse is above the earl, below the marquis, and Li Wei's many titles are the highest.

But since Li Wei didn't like it, Shen Jue naturally didn't touch this brow, and silently wrote down Shen Jing's words.

"Okay, I'll make a note of it!"

After settling the matter, several people exchanged pleasantries for a while, Shen Jue and Shen Bin got up to say goodbye, and Shen Jingxiang sent them to the door, and only turned around and went back to the house when they were far away.

The next day, Shen Jing took advantage of Li Wei's visit to the bank to tell the truth.

Li Wei was slightly surprised after hearing this: "So your uncle and nephew are reconciled?" ”

"Sort of." Shen Jing showed a hint of an embarrassed smile, after all, it was a family ugly, and it was quite embarrassing to say it.

Li Wei bowed his head slightly, but he didn't say much, but the two uncles and nephews of the Shen family reminded him of Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen, the two uncles and nephews twenty years later.

The situation of these two families is quite similar, both of them died early in the eldest son of the lineage, and as soon as the grandfather left, the uncle and nephew began to make trouble, but the Shen family only fought for property, while the old Zhu family and the uncle and nephew fought for the throne.

The uncles and nephews of the Shen family can reconcile, but the old Zhu family's uncles and nephews are afraid that they can only live and die, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.

Li Wei shook his head slightly, leaving these cranky things behind.

Shen Jing paused, took out the form that Shen Bin gave him, and said, "Lord Li, this is the list of family property returned by my second uncle, please take a look." ”

Li Wei glanced at him in surprise, didn't pick it up, but asked, "This is what he gave you, why are you showing me?" ”

Shen Jing was slightly stunned, carefully observed Li Wei, and saw that he didn't seem to be fake, and couldn't help but admire in his heart.

Although Shen Bin said that the things on this list were for him, he was not stupid enough to think that he would be done with all the things on the list, to put it bluntly, most of the things on it had to be given to Li Wei, a big man, after all, Shen Bin admitted that he was completely aimed at Li Wei, and it had nothing to do with him, if he accepted it all silently, it would be ignorant.

"Master Li, in addition to cash silver and some of the Shen family's field shops, there are also several workshops, these workshops were built after Shen Bin secretly communicated with Wu Qi to get our secret recipe, you might as well take a look."

"Oh?" Li Wei was slightly surprised, took it and took a look, there were indeed a few soap and briquettes and other workshops on it.

"Hmph, count this guy as acquaintances."

After reading it, Li Wei snorted lightly, and then saw the total value of the things on this list, and couldn't help but show a surprised gaze.

Good guy, this Shen family is really rich, and some of the family property returned by the uncle and nephew is a millionaire, originally he thought that this Shen Jing was a billionaire, but now it seems that it is more than that.

Now although he is not short of money, he still does not have millions of assets, even if everything goes well in the bank this time, most of the money earned in the end belongs to Zhu Yuanzhang, he divides it into two percent, at most two or three hundred thousand yuan.

After Li Wei glanced at it a few times, he returned the list to Shen Jing.

Shen Jing also noticed his gaze just now, so he said softly: "My lord, this time the second uncle can return my family wealth, or rely on your prestige, I am willing to give half of it to the adult, and I hope the adult will not refuse!" ”

Li Wei glanced at him, he knew that now as long as he opened his mouth now, let alone say half of it, even if he took all the money, Shen Jing would not have an opinion.

But he won't ask for any of this money, and he can't ask for it.

"You can take what is given to you, don't lose it, these workshops will be merged with your current workshops, and they will supply the Minghuang Chamber of Commerce together."

Li Wei said lightly.

When Shen Jing heard this, he was very surprised, he saw the surprise in Li Wei's eyes when he looked at the list before, but in the face of such a huge fortune, Li Wei was still able to remain clear and unmoved at this time, which is really rare!

"My lord, in my opinion, these workshops were originally built by my second uncle to steal the secret recipe of the adult, and you should be compensated to the adult, and he is also willing to take out some silver taels as compensation, these are all your deserving!"

Shen Jing said sincerely.

"Needless to say, you can take what he gives you, and forget about compensation or something."

Li Wei shook his head and said in a firm tone.

If according to the laws of later generations, someone else misappropriated his invention patent, he should ask for some compensation, but now there is no such statement, if the money is collected, it is not clear whether it is compensation or bribery.

He didn't have to take the risk.

Shen Jing saw that he was resolute, so he didn't persuade him anymore, and at the same time, he admired him even more in his heart.

"By the way, my cousin Shen Jue wants to visit the adult, I don't know when it will be convenient for the adult?"

Shen Jing remembered what he had promised Shen Jue, and hurriedly said.

"Shen Jue? What did he do with me? Li Wei asked suspiciously.

"My cousin is a member of the household department, and this official position was rewarded by His Majesty when my Shen family funded His Majesty to repair the city, and it has been many years now."

Shen Jing said softly.

After hearing this, Li Wei immediately understood that he wanted to be promoted, and he was looking for him to ask for a relationship.

But now he is also short of manpower, although this Shen Jue is not very trustworthy, but it is better than the people who are casually stuffed into him by the officials.

"In this case, you can tell him to come directly to the Ministry of Works to find me."

Li Wei thought about it and commanded.

"Okay, thank you, sir!" Shen Jing thanked.

Li Wei waved his hand casually, and then asked about the bank.

Now the speed of banknote pouring has increased greatly, there are about 100,000 yuan in and out every day, and the pressure has been given to the banknote printing factory, according to this speed, it is estimated that the old banknotes on the Jingshi side will be almost reversed by the beginning of next year, and it will be open to the outside world at that time.

There is also the matter of saving money, Li Wei has already arranged it, and it will not be long before the "people" he arranged will be surprised to find that the bank has given more money when they withdraw money, and then the bookkeeper will patiently explain to him that this is interest, and this "people" will scream in surprise to attract people's attention.

Come to such a time every once in a while, and I am not afraid that the real people will not be moved.

At the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, Li Wei met with Shen Jue, who came to visit him.

Shen Jue was very respectful, and even a little flattering. Li Wei didn't care about these either, but directly examined his cognition of paper money.

Shen Jue was worthy of being from a merchant family, and he answered Li Wei's questions fluently, and even mentioned the issue of the court's credit, which surprised Li Wei.

Among all the people he knew, except for Shen Jing, it was this Shen Jue who was most satisfied with his views on paper money.

"Yes, let's do it, the new establishment of the Minghuang Bank is a time when there is a shortage of manpower, if you are willing, I will play the Ming Sheng, and transfer you over to be an official position of the fifth grade."

Li Wei bowed his head lightly.

Shen Jue was immediately overjoyed, and bowed down to thank him: "Thank you, Master!" The lower officials must do their best to repay the grace of the adults! ”

Although he has only been promoted by half a level from the outsider to the fifth grade, he has not moved for many years, and the fifth rank and the third rank are the two thresholds for being an official, don't look at the difference of only half a level, but the status gap is huge.
