The transfer of property by stewards and bookkeepers is not excluded.
Although Chen Kan didn't think they had the courage.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?!"
The cute girl with big eyes was attracted by Chen Kan's scream, and she came to kill him like crazy.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Chen Kan questioning Yuncheng.
"Where's the money?"
"Tell me, where is my money?!!!"
Chen Kan grabbed Yuncheng's collar with a fierce look on his face, like a vicious wolf about to choose someone to devour.
"Master Hou...Master Hou, please listen to my explanation..."
“I won’t listen, I won’t listen!!!”
Poor Yuncheng was like a small boat swaying in the wind and rain. No matter how hard he tried, he could not escape Chen Kan's murderous hand.
The scene was very chaotic.
"stop."
Zhu Yuelan shouted angrily, like a divine weapon descending from heaven, instantly restraining Chen Kan who was going crazy.
Yuncheng smiled as if he had survived a disaster: "Your Highness, you are finally here."
Chen Kan let go of Yuncheng's collar, turned around and showed an evil smile: "Wife!"
Zhu Yuelan straightened her hair: "Husband."
"Our family's money is gone."
"I know."
"..."
soon--
Chen Kan knew where his money went from Zhu Yuelan's mouth.
Watching her take out a thick stack of land deeds from the warehouse, Chen Kan wanted to cry without tears.
"You mean, a hundred thousand coins can be exchanged for this little piece of paper?"
Zhu Yuelan rolled her eyes at Chen Kan: "What waste paper? This is good land and can be passed on to our children and grandchildren. What is the use of keeping so much money in our family? It is serious to buy a family property for our children and grandchildren." .”
That's right, the hundred thousand dollars he earned by working hard to accept bribes and doing business on the side have now all turned into land.
Looking at the big-eyed cute girl happily holding a stack of land deeds, it seems as if she has really made a great contribution to the family.
Chen Kan couldn't help but twitch his face. He really wanted to ask the cute girl with big eyes, where are his descendants?
Where are the descendants?
Chen Kan also didn't expect that his wealth would become an asset if he didn't pay attention.
It’s fucking real estate...
"What's the matter?"
"Husband, why do you look like this?"
"You must know that this is a high-quality paddy field that I bought using the name of Princess Mansion to find Yingtian Mansion. Although it is a little far away from the capital, compared with money, this family property is the one that can make the children and grandchildren have food and clothing. s things......"
Chen Kan nodded numbly.
"Nothing, I said good job."
Chen Kan expressionlessly extended his thumb to the cute girl with big eyes, and immediately received a bright smile from Zhu Yuelan.
"Husband, the second quarter profits of perfume and soap have also begun to be settled. I have also taken a fancy to a deserted dry field outside the city."
"Although it is dry land, as long as some tenants are hired to repair a sewer line, the dry land can be turned into paddy fields immediately. Moreover, Yingtianfu sells it at the price of dry land, which is cost-effective..."
Seeing the big-eyed cute girl's eyes shining again, Chen Kan could only force a smile and said: "Okay, I bought it..."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
After receiving Chen Kan's consent, the cute girl with big eyes felt as if she had been given a shot of blood, and she was not willing to stay any longer.
Looking at the retreating figure of the cute girl with big eyes, Chen Kan sighed helplessly.
Yuncheng looked with envy as he watched the young mistress lead the bastard out of the house and then disappeared.
Suddenly he said with emotion: "Master Hou, although my mistress has been pampered since childhood and has a bit of a temper, there is nothing to say about buying a family property. Our Hou family is really prospering..."
"Who says it's not?"
Ignoring Yuncheng who was playing bad tricks, Chen Kan left the warehouse with a melancholy look on his face.
All the money was used to buy land.
Is this a problem?
For Chen Kan, there may be a problem. In his opinion, buying land is obviously a very uneconomical thing.
Even if you put the money in the bank, the annual income will be higher than farming.
But if in the Ming Dynasty, money was used to buy land, everyone would only praise Her Royal Highness for making this wise decision.
After all, this era is still an era of farming with clans as the main body.
Whether a family is prosperous depends first on whether the population is prosperous, and the second is the amount of land.
As for the amount of savings, it does not seem to be that important in this era when people are basically self-sufficient.
This is a collision of values from two eras.
Chen Kan was defeated, completely defeated.
...
Returning to the backyard, I moved a rocking chair and lay on the edge of the small lake in the backyard. The huge weeping willow branches hung down to the water, like a huge parasol.
The servants served him a cup of plum soup to relieve the heat and cool down.
Chen Kan took it and took a sip. The cold feeling went from his throat to his stomach, and then rose from his stomach to the top of his head.
Enjoying the rare coolness of summer, Chen Kan closed his eyes and began to think about the possible historical trends in the future.
Throughout the past dynasties, only the Ming Dynasty had the most tense relationship between monarch and ministers.
Moreover, the emperor of Ming Dynasty was famous for his ruthlessness and unrighteousness.
What Chen Kan is going to do now is something that is enough to change the entire social structure of the Ming Dynasty, and it is bound to touch the interests of many people.
At the same time, Chen Kan also knew very well that reformers in history basically did not end well.
Now that Zhu Di is in power, with Zhu Di's trust, Chen Kan can be invincible in the officialdom.
But what if Zhu Di is gone one day?
This is a question Chen Kan has to consider.
He is only nineteen years old now, while Zhu Di is already over forty years old. Historically, Zhu Di's reign was only a short twenty-one years.
Twenty-one years later, Chen Kan was only forty years old, in the prime of life.
The fat executive deputy emperor of the Ming Dynasty was a short-lived ghost, the good sage Zhu Zhanji was also a short-lived ghost, and then there was the famous Tumubao God of War.
Although Chen Kan has now begun to instill some of his thoughts and ideas into Zhu Zhanji intentionally or unintentionally, people will change.
Chen Kan can't bet on people's hearts.
If he starts arranging an escape route now, some people may think that he is unfounded.
But in Chen Kan's view, since he already has some capital, some things can be done simultaneously.
Otherwise, when things really come to a head, Chen Kan doesn't think that he, a time traveler, can escape the means of a powerful empire with just a few decades of management.
Chen Kan's dream is to change the Ming Dynasty and make it stronger and more perfect.
But he did not have the consciousness to sacrifice his own life.
After sorting out all the possible outcomes in his mind, Chen Kan drank the plum soup in his hand in one gulp, then asked Yuncheng to arrange the car again, and left the mansion towards the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Civil Affairs in the south of the city.
He was going to plant a few more seeds.
After more than half a year of accumulation, Chen Kan barely had some capital on his hands.
Now that you have decided to prepare a backup plan, it cannot be as simple as just throwing some money.
In Guizhou, Chen Kan planted two seeds, but he was not sure whether they would take root and sprout.
To be on the safe side, I’d better plant a few in the capital.
As long as there are enough, they will bloom and bear fruit one day.
...
Chen Kan's stay at the Ministry of Civil Affairs' Shangshu Mansion last night was still noticed by interested people, but when this matter was reported to Zhu Di's ears, Zhu Di just smiled.
Then he reprimanded the person who was interested.
It is a sign of filial piety for students to visit their teachers.
As for the collusion between nobles and ministers, what collusion?
Could it be that Chen Kan would lead the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to rebel?
Is Fang Xiaoru acting as an internal support for Chen Kan?
That's right, the legendary thoughtful person is Chen Ying.
After leaving Fengtian Hall, Chen Ying's short expression suddenly darkened.
Today, it can be said that he accompanied his wife and lost his troops.
Chen An, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, left the Metropolitan Procuratorate and was promoted to the position of Langzhong of the Literature and Selection Department of the Ministry of Rites. Of the two censors who were invited to be sent abroad, one was sent to Shangyu County near the capital as a county magistrate by the Ministry of Personnel, while the other went to He was appointed as a promotion official in Hangzhou Prefecture.
The appointment of the three people almost made Chen Ying angry.
This was undoubtedly a signal sent by the imperial censors in the Imperial Procuratorate that as long as they opposed Chen Ying, they would be promoted.
If all the imperial censors and officials in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are learned, how can he still be a leader?
Face hurts!
Since he came to Beijing, has he ever suffered such a big loss?
Cursing the eighteen generations of Chen Kan and Fang Xiaoru's ancestors in her heart, Chen Ying rushed back to the Metropolitan Procuratorate with a gloomy look.
Chen Ying knew that this was just a small counterattack by Fang Xiaoru and Chen Kan.
He couldn't swallow this breath.
But now I have to swallow even if I can’t.
The most important thing at the moment is to return to the Metropolitan Procuratorate quickly to minimize the impact of this matter on the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Otherwise, he will really become the light pole commander.
...
The turmoil in the court could not affect Chen Kan, the instigator. Early this morning, Chen Kan left the capital accompanied by a group of personal guards.
The Baochao Office was considered a very special yamen in the Ming Dynasty.
Together with the Xixin Division, the Bell and Drum Division, and the Huntang Division, they are collectively called the Four Divisions.
The 44th Division and the 12th Supervisor and the 8th Bureau formed the 24th Yamen.
The Twenty-Four Yamen are institutions dedicated to serving the emperor and the entire royal family.
The reason why the Baochao Department is special is that although the Baochao Department is a yamen serving the royal family, it is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs. However, it is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs, but does not obey the orders of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
It's a whole rogue institution.
Chen Kan's purpose of leaving the city today was for the Baochao Division.
The yamen of the Baochao Promotion Department is in the inner city, but the banknote paper bureau and the banknote printing bureau under the Baochao Department are located deep in the dense forest of Zhongshan outside the city.
The Banknote and Paper Bureau, as its name suggests, is where the special paper used to make treasure banknotes is located, while the Banknote Printing Bureau is better understood as the place where treasure banknotes are printed.
The city's Baochao Lifting Office only has jurisdiction over two warehouses: Baochao and Banking.
Chen Kan wanted to see how the treasure notes were made, so naturally he couldn't go to the warehouse to see it.
Arriving at the entrance of Zhongshan Xiaoling Mausoleum, Chen Kan saluted at the entrance of the cemetery to express his respect for Lao Zhu.
Then he led the people around Xiaoling and went deep into Zhongshan Mountain.
In a valley deep in Zhongshan Mountain, a stretch of factory buildings was guarded by countless heavily armed soldiers.
In the factory, countless craftsmen were busy with dull expressions.
This is where the Banknote Bureau and the Banknote Printing Bureau are located. The entire production process of treasure banknotes is completed in this small valley.
After the production was completed, a transport team composed of eunuchs transported it to the treasure bank of the Bao Chao Department and stacked it. There was also a bank warehouse to plan the destination of each batch of banknotes.
It can be said that after more than 20 years of circulation, Ming Dynasty's money printing process has become very mature, and every link has at least three levels of supervision mechanisms.
The only thing missing is a technological breakthrough.
Chen Kan came here to give full play to his advantages as a time traveler and lead the craftsmen here to create a valuable treasure banknote that is exquisite, difficult to copy, and valuable.
Three months is still a bit tight.
Because Chen Kan planned to optimize the entire process of making banknotes starting from papermaking.
"In the important place of the imperial court, idlers stop!"
Because Chen Kan arrived in a hurry, no one was sent to notify the officials of the Baochao Department in advance. In addition, Chen Kan was dressed in casual clothes today.
As a result, Chen Kan was stopped by the soldiers guarding outside the valley as expected.
A group of soldiers looked at this group of uninvited guests with vigilance.
The spear in his hand was instantly pointed at Chen Kan.
"presumptuous."
There were two guardians around Chen Kan. Fang Xu was left by Chen Kan in the bank outside the city to assist Shi Wen.
The person responsible for protecting Chen Kan now is the outlaw Zhang San.
Seeing that the other party pointed the weapon at his master without any hesitation, Zhang San was very angry. He drew out his long sword and confronted the soldiers.
"Who are you? Retreat quickly, otherwise we will kill you without mercy."
An officer who looked like a general stepped forward and looked at Chen Kan coldly.
"You are not qualified to inquire about my master's identity. Put down your weapons immediately and let your businessmen come out."
Zhang San started to show off, and Chen Kan couldn't help but draw a black line.
"It's outrageous. We all put down our weapons. I am the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, and the Marquis of Jinghai, Chen Kan, is here to improve the treasure banknotes. Li Tiju is here, let him come out to see me."
As soon as Chen Kan finished speaking, a green-robed official rushed out of the valley.
"The official is here, the official is here..."
The green-robed official rushed out of the valley, and couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he saw the tense look.
"Don't be impulsive. Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."
The green-robed official anxiously came to Chen Kan, and first scolded a group of soldiers: "Put down your weapons, you are our own people, why are you making a fuss?"
After scolding him, he hurriedly ran to Chen Kan and cupped his hands and said: "I am promoted to Li Shi by the Baochao Secretary. I have seen the Marquis. The Marquis arrived and was unable to greet him from a distance. Please forgive me for my sins."
Chen Kan strolled up to Li Shi, straightened his official hat, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter."
Li Shi straightened up, stretched out his hand and said: "Master Hou, there is news from the palace. Now all the colleagues in the Baochao Department are waiting for your arrival. Please come with me, Master Hou."
"Let's go."
Chen Kan didn't show any expression on his face.
In the entire Baochao Department, the highest official position was only the eighth-rank Li Tiju in front of him, which was not enough to make Chen Kan feel flattered.
"snort!"
Walking to the side of the general, Zhang Sanren raised his nostrils and snorted coldly, and then said in a cold voice: "When you meet my Marquis in the future, open your dog eyes and see clearly."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Kan kicked him in the butt.
"Will you die if you talk more and keep a low profile?"
