Chapter 31: The Importance of Business

Shen Xin leaned his back against the door, looked up at the sky, slid inch by inch, slumped on the ground, speechless and choked.

He never expected that this time not only did not solve the problem, but put him in a more dangerous situation.

"I'm afraid it'...... I won't live long! Shen Xin's face was full of bitterness, and he couldn't help but feel sad, and couldn't help crying......

"Yongqing Hou mistook me ......!"

He just wants to get rich, what's his crime......

~

Qianqing Palace.

"What, the one surnamed Shen has come to Beijing?" Zhu Jianshen was greatly surprised, and immediately, he was angry again, and said: "It's just right to come, this unscrupulous rich gentleman ......."

"Okay, don't get cheap and sell well." Li Qing interrupted him and snorted: "Bai got three million taels, and he is still not satisfied, so he has to do something to kill chickens and take eggs?" ”

Zhu Jianshen was dissatisfied: "What do you call this, what do you mean by killing chickens and taking eggs, if he doesn't have any illegal acts, how can I ...... Well? ”

He came back to his senses and said in surprise: "He sued you?" ”

"It's not a complaint, and people aren't lying." Li Qing teased: "Whoever is responsible for the loss knows in his heart." ”

Zhu Jianshen: "......"

It's impossible to admit it, what a shame!

"I received a report ......"

"Okay, okay, come with me!" Li Qing said, "By the way, let you know about business, so that after you take power, you can govern the country more efficiently." ”

Zhu Jianshen was suspicious: "Didn't you accept someone and let me return the money to him, right?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You guess! Li Qing squinted, his eyes shining dangerously.

"Uh-huh...... Yongqinghou has a breeze on his sleeves, and he will never do such a thing, so I will say it. Zhu Jianshen's momentum weakened, "Hmm... Cheng, I really don't know much about Shangjia. ”

After a pause, Zhu Jian said sullenly: "Na, the ugly words are ahead, it is impossible to return the money, he evaded taxes and befriended the powerful, although there is no truth of business disorder, but there are signs of business disorder, I just fined him a little money, which is magnanimous enough." ”

Just kidding, if you eat something in your mouth, how can you spit it out?

Besides, isn't returning the money tantamount to admitting that he was wrong, how could the emperor be wrong?

What's more, he still admits his mistake to the businessman.

Li Qing didn't bother to talk to him about this, and said, "Let's go." ”

"Aang."

"Oops......" Shen Xin fell to the ground with a buttocks, and his bones were about to fall apart.

This was the seventh time he had tried to jump off the courtyard wall and escaped, however, as he got older, his body no longer supported such a difficult maneuver.

"The sky is going to kill my Shen family......!" Shen Xin cried out sadly, and the old tears were rampant.

'Click...... Squeak~'

Shen Xin shuddered, his head turned inch by inch in the direction of the door, and when he saw the young man in bright yellow clothes, his beard was frightened.

Then, his eyes rolled and he fell unconscious.

…

"Hey, wake up......"

Shen Xin opened his eyes in a daze and smiled lowly: "It's okay, it's just a dream......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice sound:

"Your name is Shen Xin?!"

Shen Xin was stunned for a moment, turned back with difficulty, and then realized that it was not a dream just now.

He stood up with a roll, and hurriedly knelt down, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live...... ”

Shen Xin hadn't seen Zhu Jianshen, but he didn't need to see it, this bright yellow, and the cuffs were embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon's robe, only one person could wear it,

Emperor Ming!

Zhu Jianshen said indifferently: "I heard that you came to Beijing to shout grievances, let's talk about it, if there are any grievances, I will be the master for you." ”

"Grass people... The grass people ......" Shen Xin trembled, and said a word, and after a long time, he reluctantly said in a trembling voice: "The grass people have no grievances. ”

Li Qing rolled his eyes: You won't be useless if you give you a chance!

"Hmm... Flatten. ”

"Yes, yes, the grass people obey." Shen Xin struggled to get up, his legs trembling, and he couldn't stand steadily.

The fear in his heart was too intense, and his whole person was like a tightened clockwork, and there was a possibility of eruption at any time, but this outburst was not external, but to himself.

In Shen Xin's state, if he can't get up in one breath, he will have to die suddenly.

Li Qing didn't want him to die like this, the northern economy was still counting on this.

"Boss Shen, you don't have to be nervous, the emperor is here to administer justice for you, not to punish your crimes, take it easy."

"Yes, yes, relax...... relaxed" Shen Xin's lips trembled, however, his brain was blank, and he didn't even know what he said, but instinctively echoed Li Qing.

This is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!

It was only a matter of getting him to say a word, not only himself, but the entire Shen family was in the emperor's thoughts.

One thought of life, one thought of death!

Shen Xin wanted to beg for mercy, but sadly, he didn't even have the courage to beg for mercy.

Li Qing saw that Shen Xin was about to collapse, and the string in his heart was in danger of breaking at any time, so he had no choice but to give him a look.

Shen Xin rolled his eyes and fainted again.

Li Qing said helplessly: "How can you say that he is also your people, can't you be gentle?" ”

Zhu Jianshen looked innocent: "I didn't say anything, obviously he has a ghost in his heart." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I know you're short of money, but you can't do that if you're short of money, this person can't move. Li Qing said angrily, "You forgot the economic river I told you last time?" ”

"I didn't say anything about moving him." Zhu Jianshen shrugged his shoulders, and then said meaningfully, "This guy is still in awe of me, unlike some people, who can't distinguish their own positioning......

"Who's the connotation?"

"Some disobedient courtiers, don't mention it." Zhu Jianshen accepted it when he saw it, and changed the topic: "You let me come, just to see him faint?" ”

Li Qing was too lazy to break with him, checked Shen Xin's pulse, and then said, "Don't scare him anymore, it's a loss for Da Ming to really die." ”

"It's just a businessman, isn't it?"

"As for." Li Qing said seriously: "In terms of contribution alone, none of those court bigwigs can compare with him, do you know how big his industry is and how many people have a livelihood?" ”

Zhu Jianshen pursed his lips: "If he dies, those industries will fall?" ”

"Pour... may not fall, but without him, the old family owner, and his family heirs, I am afraid that they will only think about fighting for the inheritance, who still has the heart to run the industry? Li Qing snorted, "At least we can't let him die here." ”

Zhu Jianshen was speechless, and said in a muffled voice: "Okay, I won't scare him this time." ”

"Hmm..."

Li Qing supported Shen Xin's back and quietly crossed his true anger.

Not long after, Shen Xin woke up, although he was still scared, he was not so excited.

"Long live the grass people knocking on my emperor." Shen Xin bowed again, and quickly explained: "The grass people have no grievances, they only came to Beijing for business matters, and they happened to meet Yongqinghou, so they chatted a few words, and the others ...... Nothing else. ”

"Well, that's for the best." Zhu Jianshen nodded, "Get up." ”

"Your Majesty." Shen Xin got up and said stubbornly: "Since the emperor and the Marquis of Yongqing want to talk about state affairs, then the grass people will retire first." ”

"I'm not in a hurry." Zhu Jianshen smiled and asked, "I am very interested in business and want to learn more about you." ”

"The grass people don't dare, please ask the emperor to order." Shen Xin secretly complained and glanced at Li Qing as if asking for help.

Li Qing smiled: "You don't need to be nervous, the emperor has no ill will towards you, just answer truthfully." ”

He fined me three million taels of silver without malice...... Where is Shen Xin willing to believe, but the emperor won't let him go, what can he do.

"I don't know...... What does the emperor want to know? ”

Zhu Jianshen asked: "What industries do you have under your name?" ”

Shen Xin's heart suddenly struck: Sure enough, he couldn't escape this knife in the end.

"Your Majesty, the grass people really don't have much silver, the grass people ......"

"Got the answer!"

"Yes...... There are a total of 18 workshops and shops under the name of the grass people, of which five are silk, three are furniture, three are rouge gouache, three are antiques, two are leather goods, and two are herbal medicines. β€ΞŸΠΈΠͺ.ōΓG

Shen Xin didn't dare to lie, these workshops and shops couldn't hide from people, and Jin Yiwei would know it as soon as he checked it.

Zhu Jianshen has never seen these workshops and shops, so naturally he has no intuitive feelings.

Li Qing interjected: "There are young guys? ”

"This ......" Shen Xin didn't know how much it was, so he could only make a rough estimate, "It should be...... There are more than 3,000 people. ”

"So much?" Zhu Jianshen was surprised, and said in his heart: This guy is really rich.

Li Qing said: "I'm afraid it's more than that, have you ever supplied you with raw materials and transported goods?" ”

"Uh...... If it is all counted, then the grass people are not clear. Shen Xin said truthfully, "Not to mention anything else, just the cooperative carriage and horse shop, the sum of the people in the dart bureau is not less than two thousand, if you count the people who supply raw materials......"

"How much?" Li Qing asked.

Shen Xin really couldn't figure it out, so he had to say: "It should be around 10,000 people." ”

"What?" Zhu Jianshen was shocked.

After Li Qing's teaching, he now has a certain understanding of the economy and deeply understands what this means.

Tens of thousands of workers mean tens of thousands...... At least thousands of families have earned money from Shen Xin to improve their livelihoods.

It's ...... that one person affects so many families Unthinkable.

Zhu Jian said in a deep voice: "Do you know what happened to the deceitful? ”

"The grass people don't dare, the grass people are true!" Shen Xin knelt down again and nervously explained: "Actually, if you really want to count, it is far more than 10,000;

Not to mention the complex silk process, take rouge as an example, just to supply me with the main raw material of rouge blue and saffron people, there are hundreds of households, any commodity, from scratch, to sell, in the middle of a lot of manpower. ”

Shen Xin defended himself: "The grass people follow the instructions of the Marquis of Yongqing, try to provide work for more people, after the grass people came to the north, they did not annex an acre of land, they let the people plant themselves, and the grass people paid for the purchase of ......"

……

After listening to his explanation, Zhu Jianshen's face looked much better, and at the same time, he truly realized the importance of business.

"Tell me about your industries, tell me about them."

"Yes, the grass people obey." Shen Xin saw that the emperor was no longer straight-faced, his heart relaxed a lot, and began to explain them one by one.

Silk industry, furniture industry, rouge gouache...... Shen Xin is like a few treasures, perhaps he has set foot in the field he is best at, and the more he talks, the smoother it becomes, and even a little excited......

Balabala, non-stop......

Zhu Jianshen was more and more shocked the more he listened, this business is really ...... The best choice for strengthening the country and enriching the people!
