Chapter 22: The Chief of a Village
"Five hundred taels? This king can't take it out! Zhu Di replied simply.
Liu Chun was dumbfounded, Zhu Laosi, you can't be too shameless! You're such a vassal king, you can't get five hundred taels of silver, you treat me as a child?
Don't think that you are the future Emperor Yongle, the master is afraid of you. From the moment we met, you arrested me, doubted me, and wanted to force my godfather to die, and now let me work for nothing without paying!
It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
Be careful that I go to your nephew and completely break your Spring and Autumn dreams!
Liu Chun snorted and thought, Zhu Di smiled lightly, and said helplessly: "My palace really doesn't have five hundred taels of silver, if you want money, I can give you treasure money!" ”
"Treasure money?"
Liu Chun then remembered that at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was an extreme shortage of gold and silver, and Lao Zhu issued a banknote called "treasure banknote" according to the practice of the Yuan Dynasty.
At first, the treasure money was very strong, but after all, Comrade Zhu's economics were too poor, the reserves were insufficient, and he continued to issue money indiscriminately, and it did not take long for the value of the currency to fall rapidly.
At present, basically 100 treasure banknotes, can be worth 70 yuan, in some places, to make a discount, only 50 yuan.
However, in Beiping, because the whip is out of reach, the people are still mainly silver, and do not accept treasure money, but Yan Wangfu is not good, and Zhu Di's Yulu is all settled in treasure money.
Zhu Laosi is also very troubled, not long ago I heard from my brother-in-law that there was a big incident in Jiangxi's treasure banknotes, and the two treasure banknotes could only be exchanged for 500 Wen, which was equivalent to a quarter of the currency value.
Xu Zengshou persuaded Zhu Laosi to exchange more gold and silver for storage while the currency value in the north was still stable, after all, the pieces of paper were not useful.
Changing to gold and silver is equivalent to going against Dad's banknote method, but the expenses of the palace are too great, and he can't live with a pile of papers, Zhu Di is hesitating and entangled.
"In this way, if you accept the treasure money, this king will give you a thousand yuan!"
What a big deal!
Liu Chun rolled his eyes, "Lord Wang, the grass people want money, but they don't put it into their own purses, I use it to hire workers, and I want to build some stone mills and buy iron pots." Unlike the mainland, Beiping could not hire workers in the countryside with treasure money. ”
Zhu Di hesitated, could it be that he really wanted to give private money to this kid?
At this time, Zhu Neng suddenly came over and said in Zhu Di's ear: "Lord Wang, five hundred taels is not much, and the Lu family took out five hundred taels to this kid, wanting to resolve the conflict." ”
"The Lu family?" Zhu Di hesitated.
"It's the Lu family who was instigated by Wang Tang to falsely accuse Jinyi Wei Qianhu Zhuhu!"
"Oh!"
Zhu Di suddenly realized that he had an idea in an instant.
"Liu Chun, this king has written to the Jingshi, complained to the royal hall, distorted the holy decree, collided with the Jinyi guard, and affected the secret affairs of the military state. Not surprisingly, his dog's head could not be saved. It can be regarded as an explanation to the dead Zhuhu Zhu Qianhu, and the king has to pay tribute to Zhu Qianhu, how good a man is Jinyiwei, he did not die on the battlefield, but was framed by Xiaoxiao, which is really pitiful! Zhu Di also wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
This acting skill made Liu Chun stunned.
Zhu Di said again: "That Lu Chang'an, as a talent, clings to the powerful, aids and abuses, and acts mischief in the locality...... As for the property of the Lu family, this king decided to give it to your father Liu San and reward him for his merits. Also, what is your father's official position now? ”
Liu Chun said stupidly: "It's a hundred households, and the sage has just been promoted." ”
"Well, the will of my father should not be changed casually. In this way, this king has checked, the thousands of households in Baiyangkou are scarce, and they are not worthy of the name, and they will be temporarily reduced to 100 households, and your father will be in charge. ”
After Zhu Di finished speaking, he patted Liu Chun's shoulder again, "This king still values your father and son very much, work hard, and when this king wins, he will definitely be rewarded!" ”
After finishing speaking, Zhu Di laughed and left.
It's a pleasure, it's really happy, without spending a penny, I did what I wanted to do, not bad!
Liu Chun was left, confused.
Grandma's!
What is this?
I just want to make some hard-earned money, why did I give me the Lu family's property, and I also threw away a hundred households, the joke is a bit big!
Zhu Neng came over with a smile and stabbed Liu Chun.
"Silly boy, I'm so happy! I just said only 500 taels of silver, not 500 acres of land! You're making a lot of money! ”
Zhu Neng bowed, scratched his head and said, "That Brother Liu, what other good things do you have, can you give me some?" ”
Liu Chun blinked, "It's not a gentleman's behavior to repay the favor!" ”
Zhu Neng's face fell, "Don't hide it, this time the prince is going to take me to the expedition, and my brother hasn't married yet!" In case of martyrdom, our Zhu family will be extinct. ”
The guy grinned so much that he almost cried.
Liu Chun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. On the surface, Zhu Nengzhong is brave and does not avoid knives and guns, but behind him is actually a timid face, it seems that Zhu Di also has a time when he doesn't know people!
"That Brother Zhu, I have shown you, you have a broad forehead, a thick chin, big ears, slender people, you are rich and noble, not only you, but even future generations will be blessed, the prince is extended, and the incense is endless!"
"Oops!"
Zhu Nengxi didn't know where to put it, "My little brother Liu, you really have the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, I can be regarded as convinced!" Don't worry, Zhu Neng is not an ungrateful person, as long as it is as you say, I will definitely repay him. Even if you are down, disabled, or asking for food, you are the guest of honor in our family! ”
"Phew, you just want food, your whole family wants food!" Liu Chun can be regarded as seeing through, what master, what subordinates to bring out, this Zhu Neng is as shameless as Zhu Di.
Liu Chun was too lazy to stay in the palace for long, the northern expedition of the army was imminent, and he had to hurry back to prepare military rations.
The first time they went to Baiyangkou, the two of them only had a hundred acres of hillside land, and this time when they went back, the Lu family's fields were all his!
A thunderclap on the flat ground, steep and rich!
"Doesn't it feel good?" Liu Chun said with a smile.
Liu San disagreed, "Stinky boy, don't get carried away, the army is the most strict, it is not easy to buy 10,000 people of military rations, just relying on the property of the Lu family, it may not be able to fill the hole." If you can't meet the deadline, watch your head! ”
Liu Chun shuddered, it couldn't be Zhou Yu's move to deal with Zhuge Liang, right?
Liu Chun subconsciously shrunk his neck, but soon he straightened his chest and smiled at Liu San: "I have a way, I guarantee that I can complete the task!" ”
"How can I guarantee that it's not by your mouth?"
Liu Chun shook his head, "Of course not, I'm going to scatter all the Lu family's property!" ”
"What?" The third master was shocked, hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse, and the vehicle stopped.
The third master jumped down from the wheel, almost carried Liu Chun, and got out of the carriage!
"Little bunny, you're crazy!"
The third master was angry, and the two of them had already decided that they would accumulate family business, become a rich man, and advance and retreat as they wished. Finally, the big pie fell, and this kid actually wanted to scatter it.
Is the brain pumped?
"Let me tell you, you can't lose a single acre of land, this is our family business!" The third master said viciously, he had never longed for the land so much!
Liu Chun shook his head vigorously and corrected: "This is not our family business, this is the Lu family's property transferred to us by King Yan." ”
"Is there a difference?"
"Of course there is, King Yan wants us to complete the military rations, if there is still a surplus of land and land, it means that we have not done our best, even if it is completed on time, we have taken advantage of King Yan! This one is cheap...... Do you dare to take it? ”
"Ahh
Liu Sanyi trembled, as a brocade guard, he had served Zhu Yuanzhang, and he had also seen the wind and rain in the court, yes, the advantage of the superior is not easy to take advantage of, in case it is remembered by others, sooner or later he will settle the account.
How many ministers are greedy for the money of the old Zhu family, and they are clicked!
Thinking of this, a cool breeze broke out of Liu San's neck.
"Well, so, this time not only can't we make money, but we have to build inside?" The third master said distressedly,
Liu Chun shrugged, "Is there any other way?" ”
"So, doesn't that mean we're going to do it in vain?"
Liu Chun smiled dumbly, "Of course we don't work in vain, we actually make a lot of money!" ”
"Where's the earning?" The third master's brain is a little insufficient.
Liu Chun said mysteriously: "We have earned an aries!" ”
