Zhu Di couldn't help fiddling with his fingers, trying to figure out how much silver three million mu could turn into, but just when he was puzzled, he found that there were a few eyes staring at him.

Zhu Di hurriedly looked up and found Liu Chun, Xu Miaojin, and Queen Xu Miaoyun, and even Zhu Gaochi staring at him strangely. Zhu Di's old face was feverish, and he snorted angrily: "You guys will settle accounts, what's the big deal?" ”

Liu Chun spread his hands, it was really nothing big, so ...... You can do the math yourself!

It seems that Lao Zhu's family is not very good at mathematics, of course, especially Lao Zhu and his sons. With Liu Chun's efforts, the third and fourth generations of the Zhu family are all little experts in settling accounts.

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but say: "Father, the next auction will be more intense, and the price may rise, but the later plots are not good, and the price will come down again." The child thought it was better to wait for the final result! ”

It was rare that Zhu Di didn't get angry, he felt that it was necessary to move the teaching materials Xu Miaoyun took from Liu Chun to his palace, and he had nothing to do to study arithmetic, so as not to be ridiculed by these bad guys.

The emperor's time was still very inclusive, Zhu Di waited for another quarter of an hour, and auctioned out a total of twelve pieces of land, of which the fifth piece reached an astonishing 17,500 taels, and as for the twelfth, there were also 14,000 taels.

In other words, the first one to make a move actually picked up a bargain.

Zhu Di also saw that the price of this auction was really not getting higher and higher, nor was it static...... He'd better go back to the palace and wait for news!

In this way, Zhu Di took his daughter-in-law and left quietly first.

Liu Chun and Xu Miaojin looked at each other, and the two of them understood.

Xu Miaojin's men and horses were dispatched. At this time, Yu Xin also announced an intermission, and he invited a large number of beautiful girls, who were dressed in gorgeous clothes and beautiful makeup, like flowers, blooming in the auction hall.

And they also hold a red sandalwood plate in their hands, which contains many kinds of pastries and desserts, including milk tea.

"All the distinguished guests are tired, everyone drink and eat, and continue the auction for a while." Yu Xin said with a grin.

The merchants could only agree, and at this moment, some people wearing small hats, green clothes, and abacus appeared. They weaved through the crowd.

Let's have a sweet snack!

The market for cane sugar is not small!

Do you want to get rich?

Do you want to buy more land?

We are here to help you, how much money is needed, just say, we take out a loan on the spot, how much you want, how much!

After the break, the merchants who had received financial support were even more crazy, and the most fiercely contested field was auctioned at a sky-high price of 20,000 and 500 taels!

Breaking through 20,000 taels, it is a fourfold increase from the reserve price!

Yu Xin's hands and feet trembled with excitement, and he was so dignified that he was fighting for his life...... He knew that once he calmed down, many businessmen would not go crazy, so he extended the auction all the way to the third watch.

Out of a total of 300 plots of land, he auctioned 180 pieces.

In the end, it was calculated, and the auction price was 2.3 million taels!

Yu Xin's throat seemed to be smoking, his legs were like wood, and the surface of his feet was swollen from standing for a long time. It's not a human job.

He plans to take a break and wait until tomorrow to play Zhu Di again.

How do you know that there are eunuchs waiting at the auction venue, and when they see people disperse, they immediately come to see Yu Xin.

"Quickly give the list to the slave maid, the emperor is waiting to see it!"

Yu Xin was stunned, he dared to love His Majesty more anxious than himself!

In the dormitory, the lights were brilliant, and Zhu Di was walking back and forth, with anxiety written on his face.

"Emperor, the results are out!"

Mu En ran over, and before he could speak, the list in his hand was snatched by Zhu Di.

Look directly at the last item, 2.3 million taels!

Seeing this number, Zhu Di couldn't help laughing, and in an instant, the dormitory became sunny and warm, the sky was sunny after the rain, the breeze was blowing, and there was laughter.

Comfortable!

Zhu Di leaned on the dragon chair, squinted his eyes, looked at the beams and pillars obliquely above, and his heart was full of flowers, saying that when the emperor does whatever he wants, he doesn't know that firewood and rice are expensive, the emperor is the biggest parent in the world, and there are places to spend money everywhere. All the time, don't be bothered by the word money.

Some people will think that more than two million taels is nothing at all, and the treasury of the Ming Dynasty alone has tens of millions of taels in the salt tax, do you still care about such a little money?

If they ask Zhu Di, Zhu Di will definitely say that he cares, he cares very much!

For more than 30 years, the Ming Dynasty has formed a set of rules.

The income of the imperial court basically has a fixed use, the clan officials are paid, the soldiers are fed, and the river works and waterways...... These few things can account for more than ninety percent.

The rest of the relief for famines, the establishment of schools, and the occasional construction of palaces, to occupy the remaining 10%. Occasionally, you have to embezzle, or even borrow, money to ensure expenses.

In the past year, Zhu Di entered Yingtian, to reward meritorious soldiers, to rebuild the three major halls, and to rectify people...... Every day's money is like flowing water, Zhu Di can't even be a passing God of Wealth, he can't see money at all!

If it weren't for the gentry who moved to the world and got some resources from these people, Zhu Di wouldn't dare to think about how the household would be maintained.

Speaking of which, it's just a sentence, these 2.3 million taels are the first money Zhu Di has seen in the past year, the kind that he really holds in his hand, and he will cry when he thinks about it, is it easy for me?

In the middle of the night, Zhu Di held a candle and ran directly to the inner bag used by Lao Zhu.

Zhu Di rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, looked at the empty wooden boxes everywhere, and kept chanting, "Full, all full!" Go, get me a bed, I'm going to sleep here! ”

This person is poor and crazy, no matter whether he is a son of heaven or an ordinary person, he is a virtue.

Zhu Di calculated, there are still 1.2 million mu that have not been sold, and Li Jinglong's report to him said that Dongfan Island can open up 10 million mu of land, that is to say, there are still 7 million mu, and it has not been put up for auction!

As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Di couldn't help but let out a ghostly laugh.

The dignified Emperor Yongle is not far from the two fools at the head of the village.

"My brother-in-law, I definitely didn't sleep last night." Xu Miaojin sighed and said with a smile: "He also said that he is a rich son of heaven!" I look at him, it's just a dirt bun who has never seen money. ”

What did Xu Miaojin say about Zhu Di, no one would take a stubble, everyone was bowing their heads for breakfast, and after a moment of silence, Xu Miaojin finally couldn't help it.

"Yesterday, I also issued a loan of 500,000 taels, which is really not much. Some businessmen are not rich enough to take out enough collateral, so they actually want to divide a part of the land they have auctioned off, compensate me, and let me become a shareholder. Xu Miaojin said slowly: "I didn't end the auction, but the fields in my hands are more than 100,000 mu, which is really sad!" I don't even know how to use it well! ”

This little girl is incorrigibly inflated.

Liu Chun hummed unceremoniously: "No matter how much money you have, it's three meals a day, you stayed up late yesterday, it's not good for the child in your belly, you have to make up for sleep today, and you are not allowed to join in the fun in the future." ”

Xu Miaojin saw her husband's face, and immediately became afraid, her little means, in front of Liu Chun, was simply a child's toy, not worth mentioning.

"Okay, the concubine knows."

Before they could finish their breakfast, Muen came running.

"My Lord Liu, the emperor made an order early in the morning, hurry up and enter the palace with the slave maid!"

Liu Chun had long known that Zhu Di was an impatient, so he smoothed two big buns, stuffed them into his sleeves, and hurriedly followed Mu En.

After the monarch and the ministers met, Zhu Di opened his mouth and said: "Liu Chun, I plan to use soldiers!" ”

You're really welcome, Liu Chun sighed: "Your Majesty, I don't know where you plan to use troops?" ”

Zhu Di slowly spit out two words, "Annan!" Then Zhu Di said viciously: "I have long seen that Annan is not pleasing to the eye, back then my father took pity on them, canonized the king of Annan, and let them live and work in peace and contentment, what a great grace this is!" But these brutes don't know how to be grateful to Dade at all. He actually crossed the border, advanced more than a hundred miles to the north, and invaded the territory of my Ming Dynasty. The father issued a decree to reproach, but they ignored it and did not return the land at all, but continued to seize it! ”

"I've long wanted to punish ...... with soldiers Liu Chun, you say, should I fight? ”

Liu Chun almost didn't hesitate, and immediately said: "It's time to fight, it's time to fight!" 10,000 ministers. ”

Zhu Di was taken aback and hesitated: "I just got a sum of money, and I immediately sent troops, isn't it too hasty?" Also, who do you think is the right person to lead the troops, and how can Zhu Neng? ”

Liu Chun shook his head, "Your Majesty, you don't need to slaughter a cow knife to kill chickens, I recommend Li Jinglong, the Duke of Haiguo, and let him deal with Annan!" ”
