This sentence was so abrupt that Zhou Yi couldn't help but be startled. Then he felt a little funny and said, "You can just do business if you want to do it. Why do you need to report to me? Do you want to do the salt and iron business?"
Su Shi said: "It's just an ordinary business. Cao Min has already thought of the name of the company and would like to ask His Majesty to inscribe it."
Zhou Yi said calmly: "It has never happened in ancient times that a king of a country inscribed a business name. Why should I make an exception?"
Su Shi said calmly: "The reason why the common people ask Your Majesty to give a name to the business name is because the businessmen pursue profit and find it difficult to stick to their true intentions, and the common people are also afraid of being lost in their interests. If your Majesty gives you a word, the common people will be like you all the time. Listen to His Majesty’s teachings and you will be able to alert yourself at all times.”
"Secondly, Cao Min's businesses should keep in mind His Majesty's love for the people, and the business they do must be business that benefits the people. When the people benefit, they will naturally appreciate His Majesty's kindness."
Zhou Yi said: "What if your company does evil under my banner?"
Su Shi said slowly: "If Cao Min's business ruins His Majesty's prestige, Cao Min will definitely kill himself to apologize without Your Majesty taking action."
Zhou Yi was unmoved and continued to ask: "Is there a third point?"
Su Shi showed a rare expression of embarrassment and said: "If Your Majesty is willing to inscribe the name of the business, the business will naturally be protected by His Majesty's good fortune, and any business will be unfavorable."
Zhou Yi then smiled and said: "You are quite honest." Then he asked: "What name are you planning to name your business?"
When Su Shi heard this, he knew that Zhou Yi had moved. He was pleasantly surprised and quickly replied: "Qianqiu. It means that your majesty will be prosperous for thousands of years and will work for generations."
"Qianqiu, this has a good meaning." Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing a few more times, and then said to Hu Cunyi: "Bring a pen and paper."
Eunuch Hu hurriedly ordered to go down, and soon a palace maid brought paper, pen, ink and inkstone.
Su Shi and Hu Cunyi spread out the paper and polished the ink. After finishing, Zhou Yi dipped his pen in the ink and wrote the word "Qianqiu" on the rice paper with one swipe.
After finishing writing, Zhou Yi said: "I will give you these two words as your business name. I hope you will remember what you said today."
Hu Cunyi rolled up the rice paper. After Su Shi took it, he shouted: "Thank you, Your Majesty. The common people will definitely remember your Majesty's teachings and live up to your Majesty's expectations."
Zhou Yi nodded and said, "I'm a little tired today. Cunyi, send someone to escort Su Qing out of the palace."
Eunuch Hu hurriedly replied: "I obey the order."
Then he raised his fly whisk and said, "Come here, take Mr. Su out of the palace."
Before he finished speaking, a young eunuch came to Su Shi and said respectfully: "Master Su, please follow me out of the palace."
After Su Shi saluted Zhou Yi, he said: "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and hopes to take care of the dragon's body. The common people take their leave."
Zhou Yi just waved his hand, and Su Shi followed the little eunuch and walked out of the palace.
After Su Shi left, Zhou Yi had been resting his mind with his eyes closed, while Hu Cunyi waited on him carefully.
"Cunyi." Zhou Yi suddenly shouted.
Hu Cunyi hurriedly lowered his head and replied softly: "I'm here, old slave."
"What do you think of this boy?"
Hu Cunyi said: "This Second Young Master Su is a very smart man."
Zhou Yi asked again: "Who do you think will win in the fight between him and Yu'er?"
Hu Cunyi replied: "I don't know anything about business matters, so it's really hard to guess."
Zhou Yi suddenly laughed and said: "It's hard for this kid. In order to take advantage of me, he racked his brains and made up so many excuses."
Then his smile slowly disappeared and he said to himself: "If you want to take advantage of the situation, I will lend it to you. I hope you won't let me down."
In the general's mansion.
The hall fell into silence once again. The expressions of Zhou Jin and Qin Zhidao were just like Su Zhou's expressions when he just listened to Su Shi's story in the morning.
There is something that Su Zhou has not told them yet, that is, His Majesty is very likely to be a pawn of Pei Xun, because this is too bizarre, too unbelievable, and detrimental to His Majesty's majesty.
Even so, Zhou Jin and Qin Zhidao were already shocked beyond measure.
They had no idea that Pei Xuan's revenge was not over yet, and that a bigger crisis would still be half a year away.
Although they didn't want to believe Su Shi's speculation, they thought that Pei Xun had been able to plan for thirteen years to murder the prince. With his means, temperament, and ability, he is completely capable of causing chaos.
Moreover, Su Shi's speculation was not without purpose. Zhou Jin and Qin Zhidao naturally saw the hidden dangers he mentioned clearly.
Qin Zhidao's beard was almost cut off by him. At this time, he said slowly: "If Pei Xuan is really as Su Shi speculated, he will be married in half a year, which means he still has a lot of friends left."
Su Zhou nodded lightly and said: "Although Pei Xun is very clever, he alone cannot bring trouble to the great cadres. He will definitely cultivate party members, such as Du Ziqi, Cui Peng, Tang Ci and others."
Then he couldn't help but sigh: "These are just the ones that have been found out. I don't know how many more have not been found out."
Zhou Jin suddenly said: "Are we taking things too seriously?"
Qin Zhidao asked hurriedly: "What do you think, Your Highness the Princess?"
Zhou Jin hesitated and said: "Now that Pei Xun is dead, Pei Xun's followers are leaderless. As people's hearts are unpredictable, his followers may not be willing to commit treason and cause trouble."
Qin Zhidao and Su Zhou couldn't help but nodded slightly. It was obvious that Zhou Jin's words made sense.
If Pei Xuan were still alive, his followers would naturally obey orders. Now that Pei Xun is dead, these people may not have their own thoughts, so it is still unclear whether Pei Xun's plan can succeed.
After Qin Zhidao agreed, he couldn't help but said: "Although what Her Royal Highness the Princess said is not unreasonable, we have to prevent the worst case scenario from happening."
Zhou Jin and Su Zhou nodded at the same time. After all, the matter was so important that they could not take any chances.
"So what do you think of this plan proposed by Su Shi?"
Zhou Jin and Qin Zhidao fell into deep thought at the same time.
After a long time, Zhou Jin slowly sighed: "Although Mr. Su's plan is feasible, it is simply impossible to complete."
Su Zhou asked: "Why?"
Zhou Jin said: "The time is too short. Although I admit that Mr. Su is a genius in business, he wants to attack all the industries under the Emperor's name within half a year, which is impossible. Because the forces behind these industries have increased Together, they cover almost the entire Daqian family, which is equivalent to Mr. Su trying to shake up the royal family and the family on his own."
Then she added: "Even if Master Qin and I are included, it will be impossible."
Everyone became silent again, because what Zhou Jin said was an irrefutable fact. Compared with these aristocratic families that had been passed down for hundreds or even thousands of years, their power was too weak.
At this time, a burst of laughter suddenly came from outside the door, and Su Shi laughed and said, "If you add your majesty, I don't know if we can shake these aristocratic families."
