After sending Du Xi and Jiang Tong away, Lin Yi also sighed in his heart, and a big stone fell in his heart. This is really killing two birds with one stone, not only solving the reason for Sima Shu's huge change in personality in the future, but also solving the problem of money.

What he lacks most now is money, but now the monthly money of the East Palace is only 500,000 yuan (read mín, the unit of measurement of the Jin Dynasty), how can it be enough to feed so many people, and there are tens of thousands of Donggong guards who are only maintained at the subsistence line, not to mention how to improve their combat effectiveness. In the past, Sima Shu's practice was to play a scoundrel every month, and with the dignity of the crown prince, he asked for a monthly salary of 1 million yuan per month to make the East Palace operate normally, but he can't continue to do it like this now. The government has always been in the hands of Jia Nanfeng, as long as she has a word, Sima Shu will definitely have less than double the monthly salary, but the reason why he was able to get it later is that Jia Nanfeng even connived at him to commit crimes, in order to make Sima Shu lose his morality in the hearts of the people in the world, leaving more handles for Jia Hou's party.

How can he make more money, so he thought of running a big city, there was a ready-made place in the East Palace before, and the technical talents and equipment of this class are ready-made, and there is no shortage of manpower. Moreover, vacating the big city from the East Palace, a place of right and wrong, not only reduces the criticism of the ministers of the court, but also increases the number of customers.

The original Donggong City had restaurants, teahouses, butchers, and shops selling vegetables, chickens, and grain. The daily red flag is tall, the customers are like clouds, so lively, Sima Shu is even more self-appointed as the city commander and butcher, so that the queen is like making a movie, asking the palace maid and eunuch to play all kinds of customers, and he is personally slaughtering sheep and pigs, handling the scales, more or less, the hand is up and down, and the two are not bad. If you are happy, these things are rewarded to the palace maids and eunuchs, and if you are not happy, the palace maids and eunuchs have to take out private enterprise money to buy them, which really provokes these eunuchs and palace maids to complain, dare to be angry and dare not speak. Sima Shu was happy and happy, lingering in the market all day long, so unhappy.

If Sima Shu likes to be a pig slaughtering and meat vendor, he is happy to do this, and he may be born with the genes of his grandfather and mother.

Sima Shu's biological mother is called Xie Jiu, who was born in a poor butcher's family in Luoyang City, Kyoto, but has been knowledgeable since he was a child. Xie Jiu was able to recite poetry at the age of 3, was very intelligent, and was very favored by his parents. When he was 7 years old, his mother died of illness. Since then, the father and daughter have relied on each other for their lives, and opened a slaughterhouse in the south of Luoyang City, where the father slaughtered sheep and sold meat, and Xie Jiu collected money to manage the accounts. Butcher Xie lost his wife in middle age and was in a troubled mood, often accompanied by wine, and sometimes drunk all day long, so his family affairs fell on Xie Jiu since he was a child. Xie Jiu, who was only 10 years old, became the director of the family, not only managing the accounts, but also slaughtering sheep and selling meat. When doing business, she is the famous "one-size-fits-all" in the sheep market, you say you want to buy three catties of meat, she cuts down three catties with a knife, one or two is not much, one or two is not much. The customer wants to buy a few catties, and she goes down a few catties, just a knife, never a second knife, people are all surprised, called Qiao girl, or called "two bosses".

The "one-size-fits-all" stunt of the Qiao girl is to hone it for many years, forget to sleep and eat, and hone it out with a knife. In modern terms, this professional skill is enough to be rated as a model worker, or to participate in some "talent show" TV show. According to the normal development of the plot, no matter how amazing her knife skills are, she will definitely find an ordinary man to marry in the end, maybe a scholar, or a butcher, and live with a family and children. But why did Xie Jiu get in touch with the palace, Sima Yan and Sima Zhen again?

It turned out that Xie Jiu was fourteen or fifteen years old, and he was slim and delicate, and the son and brother who passed by the butcher shop, whether he wanted to buy meat or not, had to come into the store, and asked Miss Qiao to cut off one catty, two catties, called appreciating her "one-size-fits-all" stunt, in fact, it was mostly to appreciate the beauty of Miss Qiao. As a result, the butcher's business has been thriving.

It's just that I often walk by the river, and there is no one who doesn't get my feet wet. There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. A delicate little beauty who shows up every day will inevitably make the ruffians covetous. No, one day I met a scoundrel, he claimed to be the master of Jia Chong's mansion, lawless, and openly wanted to flirt with Qiao girl. Of course, Butcher Xie didn't let the scoundrel bully his daughter, but the other party was outnumbered, and even if he had a pig-killing knife, he was not an opponent. When the bully saw that he couldn't tease Xie Jiu, he killed her father Xie Butcher to vent his anger.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, killing people and taking women in broad daylight naturally caused a sensation. At this moment, he happened to be passed by the general of Zhenbei, the Hou Wei of Jiangyang, and heard that it was the master of Jia Xiangfu who forcibly seized the people's daughter and killed the butcher Xie, and couldn't help but say angrily: "How can this be reasonable! You Jia Chong is the dictatorship of the government, and you indulge the domestic slaves to commit murder, this murder, the old man has to take care of this murder." ”

It's just that this case involves Jia Xiangguo's mansion, in order to avenge his father's grievances, Xie Jiu had to enter the palace with Lord Wei and play the martial emperor Sima Yan together.

Sima Yan took a closer look at Xie Jiu, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart: "What a loyal and filial daughter, a stunning girl! Although her face is full of tears, it is like rain hitting hibiscus, and she is unusually gorgeous." Sima Yan was originally a very lascivious person, so he left her in **, named a talented person, and posthumously awarded an official position to Butcher Xie, and buried her with a generous gift.

There are all human and material evidence, and in the end, in the case of Butcher Xie's murder, Wei Qian won a big victory. Emperor Sima Yan of the Jin Dynasty issued an edict and ordered the master of Jia Xiangfu to behead the city Cao Xianzhong, and summoned Jia Chong to give him a good reprimand, and almost lost his position. Jia Chong and Wei Qian had disagreements on politics in Japan and were not used to each other, and after this incident, Jia Chong's resentment against Wei Qian also deepened, and it also laid the root of the Wei family's unjust death in one night and nine lives in the future.

Before Sima Yan married his mentally handicapped son Sima Zhen, he was worried that he would not understand the affairs of male and female boudoirs, so he asked Xie Cairen to teach him, so he had Sima Shu. Before entering the East Palace, Jia Nanfeng knew that Xie Jiu almost caused his father to lose his official position and resign, which made Jia Xiangfu's reputation ruined. When Jia Nanfeng married the prince as his wife, he learned that the emperor had already rewarded Xie Cairen to the prince as a concubine, and he was still pregnant, so he hated even more hatred, and secretly gritted his teeth, and he was going to break Xie Cairen's body into pieces. However, at that time, Emperor Wu was still there, and Jia Nan was not allowed to do anything wrong. Under the protection of Emperor Wu, Xie Cairen was welcomed from the East Palace to the West Palace, and someone was sent to protect her, so that she was able to give birth to her son Sima Shu safely. This series of events were connected again and again, and Jia Nanfeng and Xie Jiu's mother and son became feuds, hating her to the core, hating her and drinking her blood.

Xie Jiu, the poor lady, has lost their support in the palace since the death of Emperor Wu, like duckweed in the water, staggering from side to side. The two of them were separated by Empress Jia and were not allowed to meet, and they hadn't seen each other for four or five years.

Lin Yi recalled Sima Shu's past, this Sima Shu's mother and daughter are really a pair of poor people, Sima Shu naturally hates Jia Hou to the core, but he just caught up with an idiot father, and the power is down, although he is a prince, he can't do anything, even the children of ordinary people are not as good, his own mother can't see each other, and his heart is full of helplessness. Without the children educated by their mothers, this was instigated by Empress Jia, and this slowly degenerated.

Sima Shu also inherited his mother's 'one-size-fits-all' stunt of selling meat in the sheep market before entering the palace, and under the obscenity of Empress Jia, the East Palace City became a place for him to forget himself and vent himself, where he forgot that he was still the current prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, at this time he was just a butcher who sold meat, and all the unpleasant and disgusting things disappeared under the "one-size-fits-all", and he found his spiritual home.

Lin Yi also understood Sima Shu's distress at this time, but what Sima Shu couldn't have imagined was that in the eyes of outsiders, it was just a place for him to have fun, and Lin Yi actually thought of using it to make money. However, Lin Yi changed his way and ran a big market in this palace, not only was it easy for the queen and ministers to use an excuse to attack him, the most important thing was that although there were thousands of people in the palace, the market was still too small after all, although the palace maids and eunuchs were also white-collar workers, but after all, they were all food and housing, their consumption potential was very small, and there was no private market space.

There are many vassals of the East Palace, in the early years of Yuankang, He Shao, the secretary of the Zhongshu He Shao, Wei Wei Pei Kai, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu Wang Rong, Taichang Zhang Hua, the Wei General Yang Ji, Shangshu and Qiao, once called the "East Palace Six Fu", they were all respected ministers at that time, Sima Shu's nominal master.

Among these six people, Pei Kai was the cousin of Empress Jia, who died the earliest, and Yuankang died in the early years. He is frugal and thrifty, and even a little stingy, Yuankang has died in the second year, Yang Ji is Yang Jun's brother, because of Yang Jun's affairs, he was exterminated by the three clans.

Among the four people who are still alive, Zhang Hua is the pillar of the central court, the first auxiliary minister, and is also considered to be the confidant of Empress Jia. Wang Rong is the youngest of the seven sages of the bamboo forest, and the longest living one, but unfortunately only talent, but there is no backbone of Ji Kang, Ruan Ji, Liu Ling, and Shantao and Xiang Xiu took refuge in the Sima regime, and finally got a high-ranking official, but unfortunately this person is the same as his cousin Wang Yan, his mind is not on the government, and he does not seek politics in his position, and he knows how to talk all day long, but because of this, Jia Nanfeng can tolerate it. He Shao only knows the way and the mud, and he travels around the forces of all parties, and no one can be offended. However, he is also a messy day, but he is much more chic than Wang Rong, and he eats all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, very arrogant and luxurious, and never treats his stomach badly. Although Wang Rong is rich in the capital, he is profitable and very frugal, often calculating property with his wife with ivory chips, day and night, and his own life is also very frugal. There was a very good plum tree at home, and Wang Rong wanted to sell the plum, but he was afraid that others would get the seeds, so he drilled the kernel of the plum in advance. When Wang Rong's daughter married Pei Yan, she borrowed tens of thousands of money from Wang Rong and did not return it for a long time. When her daughter came back to save her relatives, Wang Rong looked displeased, and she didn't get happy until she paid off the money. Wang Rong's nephew was going to get married, but Wang Rong only gave him a single coat, and he wanted to come back after the marriage. Now it seems that He Shao and Wang Rong may just be a way to save their lives in troubled times.

Therefore, although Sima Shu has so many famous masters, he either passed away, or he didn't ask about the world, or he didn't have time. The main civil and military ministers of the East Palace are Du Xi, Wang Dun, Du Rui, Lu Yao, the prince Xima Jiangtong, Pan Tao, Zhan Shi Pei Quan, Zuo Wei Liu Bian and others, among these people are still good to speak, only Jiang Tong and Du Xi are very upright and loyal, but they are too pedantic, and they are dead to recognize the book and reason, and he must be resolutely opposed to the establishment of a big city. Although Lin Yi can order with the identity of the crown prince, this will hurt the hearts of the two loyal ministers, and the gains outweigh the losses. Only then did he bring the two of them over late at night, first give them some sweetness, and then use a little trick to let them get into the sleeve, so that they would not be convinced by the opening of the big market.

However, who to choose to manage this big city, Lin Yi was very difficult for a while, although there are many talents in the East Palace, but the idea of "light business" is deeply rooted in the hearts of Chinese readers, and no one is willing to learn these "cheap studies" of business.
