Zhao Gongming, as a strong candidate for the head of the household department, did not like to stay in the household hall.

He was used to staying in the money house, and even he didn't really want to enter the Hubu Hall.

There are too many things to take care of in the household department, and he only likes to manage money.

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi naturally only looked forward to Zhao Gongming, and in their opinion, Qian Zhuang was the center of gravity of the country, and should even be separated from the household department.

Today, Qianzhuang ushered in a newly recruited household official, Du Zhi Ling.

People are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed, big business officials know how to open a trumpet.

This leather belly is the trumpet opened by Pixiu.

Pixiu is known as the Fortune Beast, because of the meritorious service of assisting the Yellow Emperor in battle, was given the title of "Tianlu Beast", that is, the meaning of the blessing of heaven, it is designed for the emperor to protect the treasure, the relent, the pig this kind of come to the song, if it does not come to the song, it can not be said.

Zhao Gongming smelled his heels and feet as soon as he smelled it, Pixiu only ate and did not pull because he only went in and out, and his whole body only excreted a strange fragrance.

After greeting for a while, Lao Zhao asked why.

Pixiu sighed softly: "Originally, I thought it would be okay to become an official in the court, but ......"

"To tell you the truth, Your Majesty sent me to collect the money and goods donated by nobles from all over the country to the ancestral temple, and to be responsible for the affairs of the ancestral temple...."

In a few words, Pixiu expressed his confusion.

To put it bluntly, it is a problem, the donation of the nobles is thirty-seven points, thirty percent is to repair the temple, and seventy percent is privately embezzled.

Legend has it that Pixiu only goes in and can't go out, and the king is not much worse than it, a genuine Pixiu!

"Daochang Zhao, I know that you have been an official for a long time, and you have been managing finances in Qianzhuang for a long time, please also explain your doubts, what is Your Majesty calculating?"

Zhao Gongming thought for a while and asked, "Then seventy percent, did Your Majesty say what to do? This is not a small amount." ”

Obviously, once this matter is exposed, not to mention that the nobles in the world will feel deceived by the king, even ordinary people will not say anything good.

Even swallowing this kind of money, the king disrespects the sages!

Pixiu pondered for a moment, and recalled carefully: "It seems that he is planning to build a mausoleum, I have heard His Majesty muttering about the seventy-two doubtful tombs, terracotta warriors, underground palace Feiyan, Longling Maze..."

Zhao Gongming didn't expect that King Su was in the prime of life and wanted to build a mausoleum for himself, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

Pixiu continued: "It seems that there are still some zongzi and black donkey hooves. ”

Zhao Gongming came to his senses: "It shouldn't matter, donkey... Your Majesty should be thinking about replacing cattle with livestock. ”

Pixiu said: "But the seventy percent should be used to repair the mausoleum." ”

Zhao Gongming nodded and said, "However, it's not that simple, think about it carefully, Your Majesty is in the prime of life, why do you want to build a mausoleum?"

"Is it because you know that Shang destroyed Zhou Xing, and Chengtang Foundation only has twenty-three or four years of luck left?"

"Of course not!"

"Let's not say whether Your Majesty knows it or not, even if Your Majesty knows, you won't believe this, and you will definitely choose to change your life with manpower and confront the Mandate of Heaven!"

"The most distinctive thing about Your Majesty is that you don't believe in fate! instead of knowing that you will die, you will build a mausoleum for yourself in advance!"

Pixiu's eyes widened, and he suddenly realized.

"I see! This means that Your Majesty's move must have a deep meaning?"

Zhao Gongming affirmed: "This is natural, in fact, I have noticed it before, the feng shui of the human race's mausoleum is related to luck. ”

"King Yu is out of Dingding Kyushu, casting the dragon vein to shape the humane luck Yongchang, what can be used to suppress the luck?"

"Dading is not qualified, Kongtong Seal is a treasure of humanity, but it is still not enough to suppress luck. ”

"Only the sages of the Terran race. ”

Pixiu's face showed a look of surprise: "The sages of the human race, the sages of humanity are not like you and me, the longevity is limited, even if the Yellow Emperor also ascended to heaven by dragon, he sat in the Huoyun Palace and was not allowed to go out, how could he suppress his luck?"

Zhao Gongming was in awe: "This is Your Majesty wanting to sacrifice himself to suppress the luck of the human race! Your Majesty has immeasurable merits, which are comparable to the Three Emperors and Five Emperors after a hundred years, no matter whether the gods succeed or fail, this merit will not be indelible, enough to enter the Huoyun Palace." ”

"However, this is not Your Majesty's pursuit, what suppresses the nobles and exterminates the princes, it is just Your Majesty's hand, it is others who misinterpret Your Majesty's intentions, no matter when, Your Majesty has never focused on one person and one household, and is obsessed with one country and one family, and it will always be for the whole human race!"

"Therefore, Your Majesty would rather build a mausoleum before his death, rather than enter the Huoyun Palace, but also bring his merits into the ground to suppress his luck?!"

When Pixiu first heard it, he only thought it was a joke, but after thinking deeply, he felt that what Zhao Gongming said was true, after seeing all kinds of supernatural powers, the king of Xuan still took care of his own development of big business, and still suppressed Wu Zhu and disrespected the gods, this is the best evidence.

Even though he wasn't human, he was moved.

"No wonder... Your Majesty will do so many repugnant things, obviously you don't need to do these things at all, as long as you send your troops to Xiqi..."

After all, His Majesty would rather give up great merit and build a mausoleum to suppress the luck of the human race, these nobles are also human races, but they just paid some money to repair the mausoleum, which is nothing compared to what His Majesty has paid. ”

Zhao Gongming muttered: "This is all later, the top priority is to collect money and build the ancestral temple, as for when the mausoleum will start to be repaired, we have to wait for further edicts from Your Majesty." ”

Pixiu nodded: "Yes, everything depends on Your Majesty's intentions, but I can make preparations in advance, drawings, losses, money and food, etc., must be planned in advance, at least let people understand what luck is, and if you take the liberty of building a mausoleum, it will be incomprehensible, so as not to be said to be a waste of money in the construction of a large number of people." ”

"That's right. Zhao Gongming suddenly said: "Chaoge Qianzhuang has been consolidated, the next step is to open Qianzhuang in various places, now the nobles have formed a fixed route for business, only need to open Qianzhuang in various key towns, you can maintain operations, I am willing to let your clansmen to maintain the operation of Qianzhuang in various places." ”

...........

Time flashed, and it was April.

April was supposed to be the season for the princes to congratulate, but because last year, the soldiers surrounded the princes, causing most of the princes to tremble and dare not come to the court.

However, these princes were still waiting for the opportunity, and did not officially oppose Shang, so they still had to do some superficial work, and more or less sent some envoys to congratulate them, but the congratulatory gifts were certainly not as rich as before.

Zishou is also very worried, if this development continues, the gambling stone industry will not be able to continue!

A few days later, the envoys sent by the princes arrived at the court, and it was surprising that a large number of noble heads of families came with the envoys.

Even if it is just to escort a large amount of money, it is enough for the nobles to pay attention to it, not to mention that the money is used to build ancestral temples and erect statues for the ancestors, they don't care, the ancestors also care, this is not a trivial matter.

Now it is donated to the king of the Xuan Dynasty is also used to build the ancestral temple, and when the princes lead the troops to occupy the song in the future, it is not their own?

So although the hemorrhage is a little painful, they can comfort themselves with optimism, after all, the money is not spent, but has become a statue of the ancestors, in the center of the world, for thousands of people to admire, no loss, no loss...
