General, please have some candy

Sensing the gaze behind him, Gu Yue smiled, deflected his long sword, and a plum blossom flew straight towards the person behind him.

Surprised, Sun Chuanting took the flowers subconsciously.

The young man "Sun Aiqing" held his sword and walked towards him. Sun Chuanting knelt down and bowed to the emperor.

Supporting himself with both hands, Sun Chuanting thanked him, raised his eyes, and suddenly a smiling face appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Sun, I have admired you for a long time," Gu Yue repeated stubbornly.

Sun Chuanting thought of his indifference to the emperor when he heard this yesterday, and he couldn't help feeling mixed feelings. He somehow won the emperor's favor, but he bumped into the examiner during the interview.

"Your Majesty, yesterday I was too blind to see Mount Tai. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!" Sun Chuanting knelt down again.

"Mr. Sun is a good-natured person, so there is nothing wrong with it. I appreciate it very much. Let's go to the study and let's have a good chat." Gu Yue grabbed Sun Chuanting.

Unexpectedly, Sun Chuanting did not show his ambition, nor did he show off his talent by citing classics. This steady scholar, in addition to introducing the beautiful scenery of Shanxi to the emperor, also shared his heroic deeds of beating a bully and saving a girl.

Gu Yue glanced at the skinny scholar, unable to imagine that this man could do something like punching the town of Guanxi, he tentatively asked, "Does Mr. Sun have many servants?"

Sun Chuanting looked at him and quickly understood what the emperor meant. He stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves.

White and clean, lean and lean, Gu Yue looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't see where the word "strong" came from.

"When I was a teenager, I had the opportunity to learn boxing in Shaolin Temple for a period of time. It was not a problem to deal with a few gangsters." Sun Chuanting put down his sleeves neatly, looking like a master.

"Okay, just in time, I will hold a banquet on the platform tonight to welcome Aiqing, and introduce some friends for you by the way." Gu Yue looked at him with a smile.

Not long after Sun Chuanting returned to the inn, he received a decree from the prince, and was named the governor and military leader of Shanxi.

It was very cold on the platform at night. In a pavilion surrounded by plum blossoms, Wang Gonggong led the young eunuchs to set up a brazier, set up a grill, sliced ​​meat, and prepared spirits.

Uncharacteristically, the emperor sat down in front of the grill before the guests arrived, concentrating on roasting the meat slices.

Hong Chengchou was the first to arrive. He was startled when he saw the emperor who was grilling meat. He lifted up his robe and was about to kneel down to salute.

"Forget it, let's have dinner and drink tonight, just do whatever you want." In order to show his affinity, Gu Yue handed over a bunch of grilled meat.

Looking at the golden barbecue, Hong Chengchou thought to himself, this emperor, the meat is roasted pretty well. Seeing the emperor sitting on a wooden stool with his buttocks and waist bent, he was very homely, so he also relaxed and sat on the side, helping bake up.

Yuan Chonghuan, who arrived second, was taken aback when he saw Hong Chengchou who was sitting side by side with the emperor. He was thinking about how to hint to Hong Chengchou, but the emperor who stood up grabbed him and pushed him to the other side of the wooden bench. After being stuffed into a skewer of raw barbecue, he grilled it dumbfounded.

When Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting arrived, there was already a lot of baking on the plate. Gu Yue took Sun Chuanting and introduced it to the other three.

Hearing the words "Governor of Shanxi", the other three were a little surprised.

Before drinking, the four of them were all carrying the wine, and Gu Yue glanced at Eunuch Wang and motioned for the wine to be poured.

Gu Yue is very good at adjusting the atmosphere, he wrote a poem with plum as the theme, rewarded with wine if he did well, and punished him with wine if he did not do well.

After a few laps, the faces of several courtiers turned red, and Gu Yue teased Sun Chuanting: "Sun Aiqing, when I was a scholar, I punished evil and promoted good, and punched bullies. Now I am a governor, how should I treat injustice? .”

Seeing the obvious encouragement in the eyes of the young emperor, Sun Chuanting smiled quackishly: "Don't worry, your majesty, bullies, no matter how big or small, are punished by me. I will find a way to solve the military salary in Shanxi, and I won't waste it." A penny from the imperial court."

"It's so courageous, Sun Aiqing is free to do it, and I fully support it." Gu Yue appreciated this kind of practical and flexible person very much.

"Does Master Sun want to follow the example of the burglar, beat up local tyrants, and divide the land?" Hong Chengchou asked with a smile.

"Master Hong is serious. As an official of the imperial court, how could he do such an illegal thing. I just took back what belonged to Daming." Sun Chuanting smiled nonchalantly, and took a sip of his wine.

Gu Yue poured wine for Sun Chuanting himself, and expressed his support for him with actions.

Seeing Yuan Chonghuan frowning slightly, Gu Yue said softly: "Everyone will lead the troops outside in the future. Although the generals will be outside, the emperor's order will not be accepted, but one thing must be made clear. The food and grass of the ministries must never rob the people. As for What method do you use to make the rich and powerful gentry donate, that is your ability, I am glad to see it."

Looking at the four people who were thinner than the other, Gu Yue set an example and added an example. He asked the prince to bring the four horses sent by Princess Shouning and gave them to the four courtiers, and joked: "I know You are honest and honest, you have no spare money, and I am not rich, so I donate what the emperor aunt rewarded to the four, which corresponds to the folk saying, beggars help beggars."

The four hurriedly got up and knelt down, repeatedly pleading guilty, which made His Majesty so embarrassed.

Gu Yue hurriedly helped them up one by one, but don't kneel at every turn, I'm here to pay off the debt for Chongzhen, and you are the creditors.

creditor?A white light flashed, and a good way to get rich suddenly popped into Gu Yue's mind.

After thinking about it for a few days and nights, Gu Yue came up with a plan based on his poor knowledge of filming a financial drama.He called the father-in-law in charge of the East Factory and the head of Jinyiwei.

On the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the emperor will hold a grand ceremony for the establishment of the prince, requiring all princes and princesses from all over the country to attend.

Except for the old eunuch who had served the previous emperor, a group of young eunuchs were stunned when they saw a carriage that was more gorgeous than the other.

On the day before the grand ceremony, Gu Yue put on the most luxurious outfit, accompanied by the beautiful and beautiful Queen Zhou, and greeted the princes and princesses in the golden Qianyuan Hall.

At the beginning of the scene, the old film emperor Gu Yue overwhelmed the audience with the aura of Emperor Qin and Han Wu. The arrogance of the king who looked down on the world finally achieved the desired effect after awarding twelve imperial gold cups in a row.

The richest King Fu of Daming stood up with a big belly, and flattered with a smile: "There are still rumors that my Daming treasury is empty. Look at your majesty's handwriting. I don't believe this king, hahaha."

Gu Yue asked the prince to bring up a plate covered with a bright red silk cloth.Under everyone's curious eyes, like a bride's red hijab, the silk cloth was slowly taken off, and a huge South China Sea night pearl was shining brightly. Everyone had seen countless beads, but such a big one, even King Fu could not Eyes wide open.

As soon as Gu Yue waved his hand, Wang Gonggong walked up to King Fu with Ye Mingzhu in his hand.

King Fu looked at the emperor in disbelief. The emperor took a sip of his wine and said three words lightly: "I reward you."

Seeing Fu Wang playing with the beads happily, Gu Yue spoke arrogantly.

"Last month, I asked Cao Huachun to arrange a boat trip to Nanyang. I only brought some ordinary silk and blue and white porcelain, and exchanged a boat of pearls and treasures. I want to set up a royal bank, raise money, and reopen the sea. Uncles Auntie, there is a saying that the rich and the water don’t flow into other people’s fields, and such a good thing as buying shares in a bank must be done first by our old Zhu’s family. Let’s hear how much you plan to invest.”

How much to vote?Can't you vote?The princes live a very nourishing life, and they are a little bit reluctant to make progress.

"Among all the princes, Fu Wang's family is the richest, but only in the tens of millions. There are many descendants, how many generations can they enjoy, if they don't raise money, how many generations can they be prosperous?" Gu Yue continued to fool.

Fu Wang blinked, a little shaken.

"Royal Bank, since it is with Daming, as long as my Zhu family does not fall, I will enjoy dividends forever. If Daming falls, you will not be here anymore. Did these vain wealth fall into the hands of thieves or tartars? If you hold it in your hands, then you won’t know it.” Gu Yue stared at Fu Wang closely, talking eloquently.

King Fu finally cupped his hands, gritted his teeth, and acted as if he had just lost the money: "Your Majesty, this king is willing to contribute 500 million taels as a share."

"Uncle Huang, you should think about it. This is the first and last stock offering. If it is confirmed, you can't increase your investment. In fact, if you don't invest, you will be defenseless. The ministers and wealthy businessmen waiting to invest are lined up. If It’s not that everyone’s surname is Zhu, I won’t even open my mouth to you, you are already very rich, it’s better to leave the opportunity to others.” Gu Yue picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea calmly, and stopped talking.

Fu Wang said another number, which startled Gu Yue.

"This king pays 5000 million taels in cash."

Haha, think about the things in the emperor's treasury, even if all the gold and silver jewelry is melted, it can't be converted into a hundred thousand silver. Gu Yue endured the inferiority of human beings, and suppressed the idea of ​​robbing with a black stocking He went down and gave a dismissive smile to this figure.

"Well, this is more in line with King Fu's status, what about the others?" The emperor squinted at the crowd, as if whoever said less would lose the face of the old Zhu family.

The voices of the princes and princesses became quieter the further they went backwards. When it came to Princess Shouning, when the two million taels were reported, the voice was like a mosquito humming.

It's a shame to live so poorly.

Seeing the long list recorded by Cao Huachun, Gu Yue announced in public that he was the first owner of the Daming Bank and was solely responsible for the bank's preparations.

This shrewd slave, go and help me become a profiteer.

On the second day at the crown prince's canonization ceremony, the princes were very proud, hehe, I have shares in this great Ming Dynasty.

Within two months, Cao Huachun took Jin Yiwei and put a load of cash into the treasury. What was left to the kings were paper coupons stamped with the Daming Bank. These were probably the earliest national bonds.

Gu Yue did not invest all the money in the sea business as promised. He only allowed Cao Huachun to use no more than half of the money for business, and the rest was bought for grain and shipped to disaster-stricken areas and troops.

The four upstarts had already left the capital on the second day of the prince's canonization, and went to their respective posts. In the report that was sent, there was enthusiasm between the lines.
