With a bang, Zhu Youjian smashed a tea cup. As if he still wasn't relieved, he pushed down another chair. The eunuchs and maids in the East Nuan Pavilion of Wansheng Palace were all frightened. They stood aside with hands down, not daring to express their anger.
Queen Zhou sat there, looking at Zhu Youjian's furious appearance, and could only sigh.
Princess Wu Liangha was so frightened that she didn't even dare to sit down, so she had to stand there, looking at Zhu Youjian timidly, biting her red lips gently, not knowing what she was thinking?
Zhu Youjian's royal businessman, Zhaobao's wife Xu Ruolan, stood there holding the account book and sighed - 10 million!
The Huangzhuang property now under her jurisdiction is called Waihuangzhuang, and the Huangzhuang property under Yuma's supervision is called Neihuangzhuang.
Although the industrial scale of Neihuangzhuang is not small, its operating efficiency is relatively low, and the income can only be used to supplement the daily expenses of the inner court.
However, under Xu Ruolan's management, Waihuangzhuang is prospering and can make a lot of book profits every year. But the profits are large, the reinvestment is also large, and they are all long-term investments. For example, Waihuangzhuang invested a lot of money in Weishang City and Shanghai Commercial City in Tianjin, and also acquired a lot of land in Xuzhou and Huai'an Prefecture that was damaged by floods.
The long-term returns on these investments are certainly good, but short-term profits and liquidity are insufficient. So there was no 10 million in the books of Waihuangzhuang managed by Xu Ruolan... She never expected that Zhu Cixiang would suddenly ask Waihuangzhuang to spend so much money!
Therefore, she only stored 2 million taels of silver in the inner transport warehouse (this warehouse is now jointly managed by both inside and outside the village) in case of emergency. I thought it was enough, but I didn't expect Zhu Youjian to open his mouth and withdraw 10 million taels at a time.
Although the assets of Waihuangzhuang far exceed this amount, they are mainly land in Henan, Huguang, Shaanxi, South Zhili and North Zhili, as well as commercial streets, docks, warehouses, etc. under construction. The market for these assets The price may be over 100 million, but the liquidity is insufficient!
"Wan, long live my lord, if you need these 10 million urgently, slave, slave, you can borrow it, slave..." Xu Ruolan was also confused. She thought Chongzhen was a profiteer like her! Treat borrowing and turnover as normal business behavior.
But Zhu Youjian is the real feudal emperor!
Under the sky, could it be the king's land; on the shore of the land, could it be the king's ministers... How could he be so shameless as to borrow money? Only a traitor can do this kind of thing, but a traitor usually doesn't go to profiteers to borrow money. Instead, he opens two banks and borrows money from himself.
Seeing Zhu Youjian's livid face, Xu Ruolan's pink face was covered with beads of sweat, and tears flashed in her eyes.
"Here comes someone!" Zhu Youjian roared, so frightened that Xu Ruolan plopped down on her knees - was he going to beat her or kill her? She has worked hard to manage money for Zhu Youjian over the years, and she has worked hard without any credit!
"Nephew of Emperor Xuan!" Zhu Youjian said through gritted teeth.
What?
Emperor Xuan’s nephew?
He is only 7 years old! Although he has "killed someone" (who was wrongly accused), he is still a child after all!
What can we do if we come to him at this time? How many millions can he "change" for Zhu Youjian?
The eunuch who was guarding Dongnuan Pavilion went to the "Yingtai Children's Paradise" as if he was flying after hearing this - now it is Zhu Cihong's time to play with the little girl.
To be honest, Zhu Youjian really cares about this son. Although he was given a lot of academic work, he was also given two playmates and child brides.
Moreover, Zhu Youjian also arranged targeted courses for the two child brides. Wu Sanmei practiced martial arts and could accompany Zhu Cixiang in battle to kill enemies in the future. Zheng Chagu studied Chinese literature (arithmetic, studying things, Latin, Confucianism), and could be Zhu Cihong's assistant in government affairs in the future... This trick was actually learned from He Nizi. Nizi used exams to select the crown princess for the lucky ones (I wonder if there will be any good luck in this life?), and Zhu Youjian is now educating the Queen Mother of the Ming Dynasty since she was a child.
Of course, it is impossible for Zhu Cixiang to decide on the choice of the great niece by himself...Zhu Youjian will definitely help Zheng Chagu to take over!
"My son, I respectfully wish my father and queen to be in peace!"
Zhu Cixiang came quickly. He was dressed in an arrow suit and was very neat. He walked very fast and was very energetic. Although he spoke in a childish voice, it still put an invisible pressure on Zhu Youjian.
"Ni...Boss," Zhu Youjian looked at his son, "My father has been a little tight lately...I just don't have any money to spend. What do you think we should do?"
ah? Really ask your son!
Queen Zhou, Concubine Wu Liangha and Xu Ruolan who were present didn't know what to say.
Are you trying to be a fool? Why don't you discuss this important matter with the cabinet? What are you going to say to a 7-year-old kid?
"Father, my son and I don't know." Zhu Cixiang's answer was relatively normal.
Is there anything you don’t know? No way... It’s okay if you don’t know other things, but you don’t even know how to make money?
Zhu Youjian was a little disappointed, but he couldn't say anything. Just when he wanted his son to step aside, Zhu Cihong said: "Father, I learned a poem by Bai Juyi yesterday and want to recite it to my father."
"Oh," Zhu Youjian nodded, "Bai Juyi's poem couldn't be "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", right?"
"No, it's "Recalling Jiangnan. Jiangnan is good."" Zhu Cixiang chanted, "Jiangnan is good, and the scenery is familiar to me before. When the sun rises, the flowers on the river are as red as fire, and when spring comes, the river is as green as blue. How can we not remember Jiangnan?"
After Zhu Cixiang finished reading his poem, Zhu Youjian was stunned.
He is indeed a traitor!
The treacherous son with lots of gold in the five elements!
Zhu Youjian said in his heart: Just reciting a Tang poem can bring me tens of millions of wealth!
"Okay!" Zhu Youjian clapped his hands and laughed, "Boss, when you say this, I really miss the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan... Zitong, you are from Jiangnan, you must be more beautiful than me. Do you want to visit Jiangnan?"
"I really want to go to Jiangnan..." Zhou Hou looked at Zhu Youjian with strange eyes and thought: I was crying about poverty just now, why are I going to Jiangnan now? Doesn’t it cost money to go to Jiangnan?
Zhu Youjian nodded and said to Wu Liangha: "My eldest concubine, there are more than 3 million in the inner transport warehouse (2 million in the outer palace and more than 1.2 million in the inner palace). I will give you 2 million first. , I will make up for the rest when I come back from Jiangnan."
...
"Intruder, where to go..."
At the southern foot of Liupan Mountain, on the edge of the rolling mountains, on a winding mountain road, Li Zicheng, the commander-in-chief of Guyuan Town in the Ming Dynasty, was leading hundreds of cavalry to chase the Chuang King Gao Yingxiang who had fled.
At this time, Gao Yingxiang knew that something was wrong at a glance. There were only a few dozen cavalry left around him. Although he was still protecting the anti-king, everyone knew that his important matter was already over!
When he was betrayed by the traitor Luo Rucai, his life was over.
It turned out that at the beginning of last year, he sent Luo Rucai down the mountain again to contact the Tang Palace and proposed the issue of the iron scroll to avoid death.
He had to get the iron card from Zhu Youjian, which exempted him from death and punishment, before he would go down the mountain to be recruited and work as a lackey for the Tang Palace. This request was quickly approved by the Tang Palace, and Luo Rucai was asked to bring back the iron plate. Therefore, Gao Yingxiang went down to the Ming Dynasty in March last year, thinking that he would be the father of the people of the Ming Dynasty from now on.
But Gao Yingxiang never expected that there would be a traitor among his team!
The traitor is Luo Rucai!
He colluded with the Tang Palace and Guyuan General Li Zicheng to betray Gao Yingxiang!
As a result, Li Zicheng led people to ambush at the foot of the mountain and caught him off guard. Thousands of brothers were beaten and only a few hundred were left. I had no choice but to shrink back to Liupanshan again, but unexpectedly the second one appeared again.
The army led by Li Zicheng blocked him in Liupan Mountain for several months, and Gao Yingxiang was reduced to only a few dozen people. Until now, Gao Yingxiang was blocked by Li Zicheng, a lackey of the imperial court.
Gao Yingxiang had no choice but to run away with his nieces and nephews... He couldn't escape! It would be terrible if he was caught, he would be executed in Lingchi!
But the three of them became more and more desperate as they fled. No matter where they ran, they would always run into Li Zicheng!
Look at this, it's really going to be over this time, King Chuang is going to be arrested by Li Zicheng!
