Domineering Daming

When it was almost dark, Zhang Yun let the little ones go back, and then let the servants and maids quickly sweep up the following, and she went to Qianqing Palace to hand over to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu was explaining to Liu Shimin at the moment, saying: "Tomorrow, I will go to the Royal Bank first, then the State Administration of Taxation, and then go to the Royal Political Council."

Liu Shimin wrote it down and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to notify in advance?"

Zhu Xu thought for a while and said, "The Royal Bank, the State Administration of Taxation doesn't need it, please inform Song Yingxing."

Liu Shimin closed the notebook and said, "Yes, I'll arrange it right now, servant girl."

As soon as Liu Shimin left, Zhu Xu looked at Zhang Yun and shook his head, "You, if you pamper them so much, you will get used to it sooner or later."

Zhang Yun came over, poured a cup of tea for Zhu Xu, and said with a soft smile, "The children are still young, so it's normal for them to be naughty, and this concubine will pay attention."

Zhu Xu shook his head, and immediately said: "The new year is approaching, as in previous years, you call those wives into the palace, talk about them, reward them, the new imperial order has been drawn up, I will ask Li Deyong to give you the list later."

Zhang Yun accepted it with a smile, then frowned and said: "Your Majesty, my concubine is a little worried about the emperor's wife. It's strange that the Palace of Compassion and Ning is closed, and the imperial physician is also somewhat vague. The concubine has been stopped outside the door several times. .”

Zhu Xu has been so busy recently that he didn't take it into account. Hearing this, his heart was moved, and he said, "Well, I'll go and see for myself tomorrow."

Zhang Yun nodded, accompanied Zhu Xu to finish dinner, and then left.

The kerosene lamp in Zhu Xu's room was lit again and continued to last all night.

The dark night is the best cover for all the things that cannot be seen. I don't know how many things are going on and ending silently in it.

In a dark courtyard in the south of the city, in a room, only one light was on. The whole room was very dark, and the two faces were very close together. Under the flickering light, it looked very gloomy and obscure.

"The cabinet is confirmed?"

"It's confirmed. Liaodong has more than [-] hectares of land that can be apportioned, and tens of thousands of people can be resettled. I heard that not only is there a three-year tax exemption, but there are also annual subsidies for grain seeds, chemical fertilizers, and cattle..."

"The profit here is not small, is there a way to intervene?"

"Don't worry, it's not just you who want to intervene, but also how many people are secretly watching. The purchase of chemical fertilizers, grain seeds, and cattle can make huge profits, not to mention the allocation of acres. I heard that the Ministry of Households has already started There are many people who are planning to tamper with the list of victims who have been deleted and resettled..."

"Well, we have solutions for chemical fertilizers and grain seeds. Tian Mu, I am more concerned about Guan Nei. Is there any way?"

"This may be just a foreshadowing next year. I can win over some people first. Then, whether it is land distribution or land acquisition, I can get a hand in it. I heard that there are many people who are paying high prices in Nanzhili and other places. The land is either distributed to the victims to wait for the subsidy from the court, or it is kept in the hands of rare goods, waiting to be sold at a high price..."

"It's easy to say, and I have a solution. The key is to have someone in the court who knows everything about it. Only in this way can we remain invincible."

"Don't worry, with such a huge profit, no one would want to get involved. As long as we do it in a more concealed manner, it will be absolutely no problem to make a fortune."

"Okay, we're not greedy, and we won't make it difficult for everyone. The court is so rich, it's justified for us to share a little oil..."

"That is, don't worry, as long as you are fully prepared, I guarantee that you will make money smoothly, and you will not have any worries..."

"That's fine. I've already opened three fertilizer factories. I'm preparing farm animals, farm tools, etc. As long as the court invites bids, I will bid. If my family is not enough, I will unite a few more. As long as you can eat them, you will get a commission." Never less!"

"Hey, I can trust you. Not only these, do you understand the building? Liaodong not only needs to divide the land, but also build row houses. The profits here are also very considerable. If you win a land, at least a few dollars a year. One hundred thousand silver dollars in hand..."

"Such huge profits? Let me think about it. I don't want to do it. I'll go back and find a way to contact some people and set up a construction firm. The Royal Commercial Group can't take up all the money-making business..."

"That is, they can't eat so much. In the spring of next year, the imperial court will carry out water conservancy renovations in Suzhou, Yangzhou, and Hangzhou, and the money and food involved will be tens of millions..."

"Hey, there are so many places to make money, but it's a pity that your hands aren't long enough. Otherwise, if you stretch out your hands, you'd be worth tens of millions..."

"Be low-key and low-key. In the current dynasty, low-key is the kingly way. Anyone who stands out will have no good results!"

"I'll save this for me. After you go back, please contact me more. Money is not a problem, the key is to be reliable. In the future, if you get promoted and I get rich, no one will hurt anyone..."

Chapter 1477 The Inception of Foreign Intervention

There are too many things going on in the dark night, and no one knows who is brewing any conspiracy.

Zhu Xu stayed overnight in Zhao Jing's yard that night. Early the next morning, he was lying on the bed, and Zhao Jing sat on his waist and massaged him.

Zhu Xu has been in poor health recently, being pinched from time to time, Zhao Jing kept saying, "Your Majesty, your place is too hard, your shoulder hurts from sitting for a long time, your arm is also stiff..."

Zhu Xu's painful head was sweating, and he replied with difficulty: "Well, I've been a little slack lately, and haven't exercised much..."

"Your Majesty, bear with me..."

"Well..." Zhu Xu raised his head fiercely, enduring it hard.

Zhao Jing lifted his leg, and there was a sound of bones.

The maids outside and the eunuchs peered at each other for a while, not knowing what was going on inside.

After a long time, Zhu Xu came out from the inside, feeling much lighter all over his body, and said, "Go to the Palace of Compassion."

Liu Shimin hurriedly made arrangements, and before leaving, he took a look at this unremarkable small courtyard.

When Zhu Xu came to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, he saw that the gate was closed tightly. It took a long time before a palace lady hurried over and pleaded guilty: "Forgive me, Your Majesty, the empress just took a bath, I asked you to be busy with your work, so you don't have to come here if you have nothing to do."

Empress Dowager Zhang did not stop Zhu Xu from going in once or twice, but Zhu Xu felt a little uneasy thinking about Zhang Yun's words, stepped forward, and said in a low voice: "Tell me honestly, is the emperor's sister-in-law really taking a bath?"

The palace maid bit her lip and said in a low voice: "Yes. Your Majesty sweated last night, but she is much better today, so she took a bath early in the morning."

Zhu Xu stared into her eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "Where is Yongning, let her come to see me."

The maid said: "The princess was locked up by the empress, and she was not allowed to go out."

Zhu Xu looked thoughtful, said "um", turned and left.

Not long after he left, Zhu Xu said with a gloomy expression: "Bring the imperial doctor to see me, and let me find out whether Yongning really made a mistake and was imprisoned."

Liu Shimin did not have Cao Huachun's deep foundation in the palace, the news came a little later, his expression became slightly tense when he heard the words, and he immediately said: "Your maid obeys the order."

Zhu Xu went straight to Qianqing Palace, thought for a while, and then started to work under the chaos.

Not long after, a female imperial physician rushed over, Zhu Xu stared at her, and said, "Tell me honestly, what's going on with the Queen Mother, if you dare to hide it, I will never forgive you!"

The female imperial physician stood in front of Zhu Xu with a calm expression, and said, "Your majesty, your mother has an old disease after giving birth, and it will recur every winter. It's just that this year it's a little fierce and painful, but it's not life-threatening. I have already consulted with the doctor, and tried every means to treat the Queen Mother, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Zhu Xu stared at her eyes and complexion, making sure she wasn't lying, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, you have worked hard, take good care of me, let me know if there is anything, and don't hide it, you know?"

"I understand." The female imperial physician said.

Zhu Xu nodded and let her leave.

As soon as the female imperial doctor left, Liu Shimin looked a little embarrassed, and reported: "Your Majesty, I found out. A while ago, Princess Yongning took the eldest princess and three highnesses out of the palace secretly, but was discovered by the empress dowager, so she was locked up." .”

Xiao Yongning was able to sneak out of the palace because of Zhu Xu's acquiescence, but sometimes this girl can get rid of the hidden guards and do things that Zhu Xu doesn't know about.

For example, he pretended to be a beggar and was arrested by the government. He never knew about it before.

Thinking of his children, Zhu Xu suddenly became angry, and said: "Shut it up, wait for her to come out, and I will continue to lock it up, there will be no law. Also, keep an eye on those little guys for me, if I don't With your permission, they are not allowed to leave the palace privately in the future."
