Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Chapter 423 The largest sale of stolen goods

Snapped!

A resume was placed in front of Liu Zhao.

He looked up and asked what it was.

Gu Jiu was standing, approaching her due date, she wanted to exercise more.

She looked down at Liu Zhao condescendingly, Gu Yu Gu fourth brother's resume.

Liu Zhao opened his resume in silence.

Gu Yu has a lot of experience. He has been with Mr. Gu for so many years and has a good understanding of people's livelihood. Belong to doers.

Not bad! It's a pity it's a lifter.

yes! Too bad it's a lifter.

Gu Jiu asked, If there is a county outside Nanchengmen, can Gu Yu be the first county magistrate? I need him to sit in that position.

No one has mentioned the matter of setting up a county. It's too early for you to worry now.

Are you sure it's too early? Next month, the Ministry of Household will start registering the number of people who buy houses and apply for household registration for refugees. Tens of thousands of refugees, plus such a large project, is equal to the output of a high-end county, you are sure that the Ministry of Household Are the officials not heartbroken?

With household registration, the population tax can be collected in an open and fair manner, and the refugees are required to perform corvée service.

If you do not serve corvée, you will be redeemed with money.

what are these?

These are all income!

Now everyone in the capital knows that the refugees outside the city are not what they used to be, and they have money on hand.

As the saying goes, no profit is too early, no matter how small the mosquito meat is, it is still meat.

After registering the household registration, Gu Jiu dared to bet on the head that the Ministry of Household would never spare the tens of thousands of refugees, nor would she let go of herself.

After the county was established, Gu Jiu had to pay an extra tax.

Although it's not a lot, it's money anyway.

For the Ministry of Household, they are unwilling to let go of a copper plate.

Liu Zhao was expressionless, That land was originally registered under the name of Shaofu. The land of Shaofu is not under the control of any yamen, and no yamen has the right to collect taxes.

Gu Jiu nodded, she knew all this, But now that land belongs to me, I'm not a young mansion. And the refugees buy houses,

It is with title deed. That piece of land, at least Xincunfang City, already belongs to refugees.

Liu Zhao was silent.

Gu Jiu asked him, Is there really no one in the court who has mentioned the establishment of a county?

Liu Zhao put down his resume, At least not yet. But maybe someone has already thought of it, like you.

Gu Jiu said, I'm not against setting up a county, but I ask that the first, second, and third county magistrates be Gu Yu. The big deal is that I will pay more.

It's not about money.

In the final analysis, it's a question of money. I don't want to be a county and someone will hinder me everywhere.

Liu Zhao considered it for a while, and said, Even if a county is really established, the imperial grandfather tends to send people from the Shaofu.

Gu Jiu shook his head, You can't send someone from the Shaofu. You have to help me with this.

Liu Zhao raised his eyebrows, Can only be Gu Yu?

She nodded her head, Yes, it can only be Gu Yu, fourth brother Gu. He is the most suitable candidate. He understands people's livelihood and economics, has rich experience, and has slick methods, but he didn't get a Jinshi.

You can't pass the test!

Gu Jiu bared his teeth, can you stop being so vicious?

Liu Zhao sneered, Okay, I'll help you with this. But you have to be prepared to fail.

This matter can only succeed but not fail. I'll give you money.

She has money, a lot of money.

I don't believe that so much money is poured into it, and there is no way out.

Liu Zhao looked at her and asked tentatively, Are you stimulated today?

It's not the same as usual.

Gu Jiu took a deep breath, When I came back, I met someone I hated.

Who? Liu Zhao was thinking, who is so oblivious to Xiao Jiu's anger. beat him!

Gu Jiu was very direct, Thank you.

Oh!

Liu Zhao suddenly remembered that there was such a person.

Do I need to send someone to teach him a lesson?

Gu Jiu shook her head, No need. He has a good relationship with Gu Yue, and he even passed on Gu Yue's message.

Are you provoked by Gu Yue?

After a few years of marriage, Liu Zhao never talked about Gu Jiu's sisters.

Gu Jiu shook her head, I wasn't stimulated, I was just a little unhappy. You know that after I got pregnant, my mood became unstable and I was easily irritable.

If you're irritable, don't mention her.

What's the situation in the Chu Palace now? Gu Jiu asked casually.

It's the same. Liu Zhao answered indifferently.

Gu Jiu glared at him.

He smiled, Don't worry about the Chu Palace. I'll handle Gu Yu's affairs for you. Instead of throwing money, it's better to promise your grandfather how much tax you can pay a year.

Gu Jiu frowned, What do you mean, let me pay more tax to please Your Majesty? I paid the tax in full.

Liu Zhao poked Gu Jiu's forehead, Are you going to give birth? Your reaction is so slow today.

Why did he ask her to pay more taxes? He asked her to draw a big cake for the imperial grandfather. A pie about taxes.

Gu Jiu was very heartbroken.

Maybe it's really going to be born. So the brain's reaction was a little slow.

Maybe she has prenatal depression.

She has read books on this aspect. Before giving birth, many mothers are relatively nervous, extremely unstable, and are easily affected by the outside world.

This is more common in first-time mothers.

After the second child and third child have experience, they will not be so nervous and can deal with it calmly.

You should rest more.

Liu Zhao supported Gu Jiu and sat down on the cushioned chair.

Things are handled by the following people. In the last period of time, you can take care of your baby and don't think about anything. Even if a county is to be established outside the South City Gate, it is not something that can be done in a short time. You have to wait until the earliest. It's spring next year. The kids are half a year old by then, and you'll have enough energy to deal with these things.

Gu Jiu took a deep breath, I know.

She began to wonder if she really had prenatal depression.

Gu Yue is really a broom star.

Thinking that the child was about to be born, Gu Jiu didn't go out in the next days, and stayed at the palace to raise the baby with peace of mind.

It rained in the morning, the ground was not dry, and the weather was rarely cool.

Gu Jiu took a nap for a while.

The concierge came to report, saying that it was Mr. Hu, who had come to the palace to give gifts.

Which boss is in charge? Gu Jiu didn't think of it for a while.

Qingmei reminded: Did Madam forget that jade carving? The New Year's gift sent by Zhou Gongzi last year.

Gu Jiu suddenly realized, and finally remembered.

My mind has been a little stupid lately.

Guanshi Hu, one of Zhou Jin's subordinates, manages the property for Zhou Jin in the capital all the year round.

What is he doing here?

Tell him to wait in the flower hall.

Gu Jiu packed up and then went to the flower hall.

The grass people pay their respects to Madam!

Mr. Hu's attitude was respectful.

Gu Jiu nodded with a smile, No ceremony, just sit and talk.

Don't dare. It's fine for Caomin to stand.

Gu Jiu smiled and asked without reluctance, Has your son come to the capital?

My son will come to the capital in three days, and he wants to meet his wife. To show his sincerity, he specially ordered Caomin to send him a gift.

Oh?

Gu Jiu frowned slightly, I should have returned the gift last time to your son. This time I'm giving a gift again? This lady can't accept it.

Madam, don't worry, it's not an expensive gift, it's just my son's wish. Madam might as well take a look first, and then feel satisfied after reading it, and then decide to accept it.

Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows, why didn't she force her to accept gifts this time.

Could it be really worthless gadgets.

Guanshi Hu was still waiting for Gu Jiu to make a decision.

Gu Jiu nodded at him, Then I'll take a look.

Guanshi Hu smiled and opened the small wooden box.

Gu Jiu looked down and saw only a tattered dark red silk cloth.

What's the meaning!

Guanshi Hu did not explain, but took out the silk cloth and spread it out, Madam, please take a look.

The silk cloth with the smell of artillery fire has a few more holes on it, but the big Zhu character can still be distinguished.

She frowned, a vague suspicion in her heart.

But she needs Hu Guanshi to tell her the truth in person.

what is this?

This is the flag! Hu Guanshi said with a smile.

Gu Jiu thought to herself, is it really as she guessed?

Whose flag?

The flag of the Zhu family's house in Cheng'en's house in the capital hangs on the sea trade ship. Madam, don't you know, the Zhu family's sea ship was hijacked by pirates some time ago, and the Zhu family suffered heavy losses. Because of the slow transmission of news, there are few people here in the capital. know about it.

Gu Jiu stared at Director Hu, Pirates robbed the Zhu family's maritime trade ship?

Exactly! My son asked Caomin to bring this flag to make Madam happy.

Gu Jiu's face was cold, How come the Zhu family's flag is in your son's hand? Could it be that your son is a pirate?

Madam is joking, how could my son be a pirate?

Hu Guanshi's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm.

He knew that when the flag was taken out, it would arouse suspicion. But his son insisted on giving this gift to Mrs. Zhao, and he had no choice.

Gu Jiu smiled, If your son is not a pirate, why would you have a flag after being attacked by artillery fire? Don't tell me, this flag was picked up by you from the sea.

Of course it wasn't from the sea. Madam knows that after the pirates hijacked the ship, they also need to find someone to sell the stolen goods. It happened that my son had the ability to eat several million taels of goods, so he bought it, plus this flag.

Gu Jiu's heart rolled up a huge wave.

What kind of maritime merchant can eat several million taels of goods in one go, and also sell stolen goods for pirates.

This is clearly collusion with pirates.

Maybe Zhou Jin himself was a member of the pirates.

The pirates are the next family, and Zhou Jin is the upper family.

Gu Jiu smiled coldly, You are honest.

Guanshi Hu said with a smile: Young Master ordered that when Madam asks about this matter, you must answer honestly. You must not hide anything from Madam.

yes?

Gu Jiu smiled, This year, I have made some money by cooperating with your firm in sea trade. I haven't thanked your son in person yet.

My son will come to the capital in three days, can I see Mrs.

Unfortunately, I have a big belly now, and it may be activated at any time, so it is inconvenient to leave the palace.

Then can my son visit his wife in the palace?

Gu Jiu laughed, Aren't you afraid of your son?

Why be afraid?

As a pirate, you dare to sway in the capital, and even come to the palace as a guest, are you really not afraid?

Guanshi Hu smiled and shook his head, Madam misunderstood, my son is not a pirate.

Gu Jiu smiled and picked up the tattered flag, Selling stolen goods for the pirates, it is worth several million taels at a time. Let the government talk about this matter, what do you think Master Guan will judge?

Hu Guanshi looked nervous and repeatedly emphasized, My son is a serious businessman.

Whether it's a serious businessman, it doesn't matter if you say it.

After a pause, she said again: Tell your son, this gift came on time, and I like it very much. I got the gift I gave last time, but I don't like it, and I hope I can return it. Yes, let your son keep yourselves safe, and don’t stir up the storm in the capital. The capital is not in the south of the Yangtze River, beware of capsize. Xu Yousi, see you off!”

this this this...

Guanshi Hu was stunned, is this going to see off the guest?

My son will come to the capital in three days, and he wants to meet his wife.

Not available. See you off!

Xu Yousi stopped Guanshi Hu, Guide Hu, please!

Guanshi Hu was in a cold sweat, and the task was not completed. When he went back, the young master had to peel off his skin.

But these palace guards, Huangmen, were fierce and vicious.

Gu Jiu returned to the small study, and the tattered chess pieces were placed on the desk.

She went through the matter from beginning to end.

At the gate of the palace that day, Cheng En Bo Zhu Ci vomited blood and fell into a coma. Could it be that he couldn't bear it for a while when he heard the news that his own sea trade ship had been robbed.

Millions of taels of goods really cost the Zhu family half their lives.

First, they were fined 1.55 million taels, and then they lost several million with the cargo, the ship and the people. The Zhu family was afraid that this time it would hurt their vitality.

No wonder Cheng Enbo was so stimulated that he vomited blood and fell into a coma.

As a result, the Zhu family's cash flow is already very tight.

Just press down and the cash flow will break. It can no longer maintain its original appearance.

The Zhu family must have blocked the news that the ship was hijacked because they were afraid of being thrown into the ground.

Gu Jiu thought about how to use this news to clean up the Zhu family.

Perhaps the news that the ship was hijacked was the last straw that broke the Zhu family.

Go and call Bai Zhong, I have something important to instruct him.

Bai Zhong is in the city, busy with small projects, similar to the one-street project in Yuhua Lane.

It's just not as profitable as Yuhua Lane, after all, there is no second pier.

Because of Bai Zhong's efforts, the reputation of the Sihai real estate under the Sihai Commercial Bank has already been sold.

Everyone in Beijing knows that the houses built by Sihai Real Estate are of the highest quality, and even if they are a little more expensive, they are worth the money.

Bai Zhong was ordered to rush back to the palace.

When he saw Gu Jiu, there was still sweat on his forehead.

Gu Jiu picked up the flag and threw it to him, Three ships of the Zhu family were hijacked by pirates and lost several million taels. That's what happened last month. You spread this news in the Beijing business district as quickly as possible.

Bai Zhong first said yes, The Zhu family ship was hijacked?

Gu Jiu nodded, This flag is the evidence. Of course, this flag cannot be taken out to meet people. I estimate that the Zhu family has not much cash on hand.

Their Zhu family organized sea boats to go to sea, and half of the funds came from the business district to raise funds. If you spread the news, people in the business circle will panic. No matter how much cash flow the Zhu family has, it will be overwhelmed by this news.

I will prepare the money, and when the Zhu family suffers, you will come forward to buy the Zhu family property for this lady.

Bai Zhong finally came back to his senses. He lowered his voice and asked, Madam, is this true?

Gu Jiu nodded, It shouldn't be wrong.

If Cheng En Bo Zhu did not vomit blood at the gate of the palace that day, she might be dubious.

Combined with Cheng Enbo Zhu's speech, he vomited blood and fell into a coma. Nine out of ten, this is true.

It's just that the Zhu family blocked the news and dared not speak out. Afraid of being thrown into the woods.

The shopping mall is like a battlefield, I see the icing on the cake, how can there be help in the snow.

The Zhu family is struggling to the death, not taking the opportunity to grab benefits from the Zhu family is not in line with the businessman's nature of profit-seeking.

Gu Jiu is also a businessman and an enemy of the Zhu family. She has to take a bite and become the biggest beneficiary.

Bai Zhong is clear, The little one understands, the little one will handle this matter.

Gu Jiu reminded him, Spread the news secretly, so that no one can find you. It is necessary to take over the Zhu family's property quickly, and you must not let others take the lead. The high-quality property under the Zhu family's name can be robbed as much as possible.

I know, little one. Bai Zhong was excited and full of energy.

To be able to bring down the Zhu family, the richest man in the capital, is really exciting.

He left in a hurry to get a big deal.

Gu Jiu stared at the tattered flag on the table and had many doubts about Zhou Jin's identity.

Whether he's a pirate or not, at least he's connected to a pirate.

Being able to swallow millions of taels of goods in one go, the wealth is beyond expectation.

I'm afraid that the Zhu family, the richest man in the capital, will be willing to give in to Zhou Jin's financial resources.

It's just that Rong Xin was in the south of the Yangtze River, and for a year, didn't he even notice the identity behind Zhou Jin?

Pirates sell stolen goods, but not everyone can do it.

It is necessary to check this Zhou Jin.

After Hu Guanshi came out of the palace, he went directly to a courtyard in the city without a moment's delay.

He told Gu Jiu that Zhou Jin would not arrive in the capital until three days later. In fact, Zhou Jin had secretly arrived in the capital a few days ago.

Seeing Zhou Jin, Guanshi Hu knelt down and said, It's not good to do a little thing, please punish your son.
