MTL - Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty-v2 Chapter 1758
Chapter 1758
Liu Kuan felt his nose sore.
Then burst into tears.
I couldn't open my eyes because of the pain.
He covered his nose, wanting to scold.
But it was very fast, but was pushed down by the crowd!
He couldn't imagine that the merchant who was usually polite and courteous to him turned into a beast at this moment.
Taking money from someone is like killing one's parents. Liu Kuan doesn't understand this truth.
Or, although he understands, he doesn't feel deeply after all.
After all, if you take away such lowly merchants, you will take them away. What can you do?
Those docile merchants are usually gentle and even a little timid, but once interests are involved, even if their own parents are in front of them, they will not be polite.
It was only half an hour before dawn, and all the shops were sold out in a short while!
As a result, countless people regretted it, and some even beat their chests and feet.
It is said that Wang Bushi did not leave that night, but he was the first to go in today, and bought all the good shops directly.
There are a total of thirty-seven rooms, all with the highest price and the highest location.
Even so, the back shops still didn't stop everyone's upsurge.
It sold out quickly.
Not only are some people planning to buy it and use it as a heirloom, but more businesses also care about it.
This Xishan New Town is about to become lively.
Such a huge population is about to influx.
No matter which big business firm, it is necessary to start its layout in Xishan New City.
Those century-old shops and those trendy department stores, why don’t they operate a branch in Xishan New Town?
If you don’t buy this shop now, you will have to rent it in the future.
Tens of thousands of taels of silver, or even a hundred thousand taels of silver, in fact, it doesn't matter.
The important thing is that in the future layout, we must not lag behind others. Shopping malls are like battlefields. If you fall behind one step, you will be overwhelmed by your competitors. This is intolerable.
Never mind, buy it first.
The news of today's son also quickly spread to the capital.
At this time, everyone has already made an estimate. Next, if Xishan New City launches a shop, the price of this shop will inevitably increase.
After all, people who buy shops don't care about silver.
Besides... the shop is so hot now.
And those who have already bought a house in Xishan New City can't help but tell everyone.
The shops are selling well. Although their own houses are still in twos and threes, it also means that their lives may provide great convenience in the future.
Even... In the future, businesses there will inevitably need to recruit a large number of people to operate. If they move in the future, they may find jobs nearby.
On the same day, Fang Jifan entered the palace to have an audience.
Zhu Houzhao has learned the news.
He felt that he was deceived by those **** merchants, and it was clearly these guys yesterday, who called the shop worthless!
Seeing Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan first bowed to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty..."
Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses, and said: "These businessmen really have no faith..."
Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the buyer has always been the one who dislikes the goods. Only those goods that no one wants, no one is going to find fault."
Zhu Houzhao was in a happy mood today, and said cheerfully: "It makes sense, I am still too young, I didn't expect that there are so many connections in it, but why do you know so much when you are so young? In a few days, I'm afraid that the price of this shop will continue to rise, and my land will also skyrocket. This is a good thing, Lao Fang, I remember the bet, and since that's the case, the prince's marriage..."
Zhu Hou took a look at Liu Jin: "Of course, the prince's wedding needs the approval of the queen mother. When you make a memorial, just say it's your idea, and the queen mother will understand what it means."
Fang Jifan said again: "It's better to ask the Dazheng of Longquan Temple to check the horoscopes of His Royal Highness and Sister Shemei. If the horoscopes do not match, it will be bad. I am a very traditional person. If the horoscopes are really inconsistent, of course Your Majesty I don't mind, I also have some grudges in my heart."
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhu Houzhao was overjoyed, and told Liu Jin, "Just find that **** Li Chaowen and test his horoscope. I am also very traditional. If the horoscope does not match, I will interrupt... No, this marriage, I have to do it." It's a pity. I still love the little sister of the Fang family very much."
Liu Jin nodded his head, and he made a note of the fact that the prince is not too young to write a letter, and it's time to get married. Afterwards, we recommend Fang Xiaofan. Of course, we still have to test his horoscope, so we have to find Li Chaowen, the great master of Longquan Temple, but should we tell him that His Majesty wants to break his leg?
Zhu Hou took a picture, as if he had settled his mind, and said happily: "What I am most happy about is that the common people can live and work in peace and contentment."
As he said that, he put away his hippie smile: "I have lived with the common people, how many nights have I lived in the common people's homes, I know the people's livelihood is difficult, and I know their concerns. Now I am Their father, seeing that they live in no fixed place, is there any reason not to ask? The strength of Lao Fang lies in this. Although he has benefited the common people, the money he should earn is not a lot of money. A real talent."
Fang Jifan said modestly: "Your Majesty, you must not say that. I learned it from Your Majesty. At the beginning, I was suffering from brain disease, and I was always in a daze. It's really not a thing. But since I got to know Your Majesty, I don't know it." However, it is strange to say that he has acquired wisdom. From this, it can be seen that His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, like a divine help. Of course... If it is only like this, I still don’t admire Your Majesty. What I admire most about Your Majesty is Even though His Majesty is the Son of the True Dragon, he is destined to belong to heaven and is favored by heaven, but he can still keep a clear mind at all times, and what he thinks of is still the soldiers and civilians. This kind of love for the people is hard to find in the scriptures and history. Standing shoulder to shoulder, His Majesty is now enthroned, it is really a blessing for all people."
Zhu Houzhao was dizzy from being praised, and triumphantly said: "This is very reasonable, I love the people like a son." Immediately, Zhu Houzhao frowned when he remembered something: "I just hate that Li Zheng, He let him escape."
Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, actually...I am not surprised by what Li Zheng has done!"
"What?" Zhu Houzhao was stunned!
Fang Jifan said indifferently: "Your Majesty... When your Majesty made a bet with the minister, did you remember that the minister released a message that he wanted to sell a house in Xishan New City to raise military funds for your majesty?"
It's been a long time since Zhu Houzhao remembered it, so he's really impressed!
Fang Jifan continued: "Actually, this news was originally released to the Ottomans. The Ottomans... are my confidant's serious troubles. The construction of a new city will inevitably require a large amount of initial investment. Of course, I can take A lot has been paid out, but after all, it is now building railways and training troops, and it is very difficult to build such a huge new city. I was thinking, if this is the case... why not... ask the Ottomans for help? "
Although Zhu Houzhao's personality is sometimes unreliable, he is also a very smart person. When Fang Jifan said this, he suddenly realized it!
The investment in Xishan New City is huge.
And in the barren land in the early stage, how can the house be sold!
Speaking of which, isn’t it thanks to these Ottomans?
Zhu Houzhao was still puzzled, so he frowned and said, "However, Lao Fang, how do you know that they will definitely do something?"
Fang Jifan said: "Because Suleiman, since he came to the capital, has always been obsessed with my Daming. He is ambitious. Since he only respects Confucianism, how can he not have the heart to rule the Central Plains? It is said that you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about it." , but Suleiman has always been thinking about us."
"Furthermore, Suleiman is surrounded by a large number of Confucian scholars. I really know them very well. They are the ones who know the emperor's heart best and know the emperor's preferences. Don't look at them in Daming, they all speak out. It was because, when the emperor was here, it was Shilin’s opinion that decided their promotion and promotion. Therefore, they racked their brains and figured out that it was Shilin. But when it came to Ottoman, it was completely different. They were outsiders with a high status. Unsteady, therefore, after all, desperate to express himself in front of Suleiman."
"They naturally know Suleiman's heartfelt wish to take control of the Central Plains. This gives them a place to use their skills. After all...they are Han people, and they can't be more clear about everything in the Han land. Only Suleiman thinks more about it. They are more valuable when they enter the Central Plains. Thinking about it, they must have tried their best to instigate this matter in front of Suleiman over the years."
Speaking of this, Fang Jifan couldn't help showing a bit of complacency: "The ministers are sure that since they heard that the ministers are raising military funds, they want to attract Suleiman's attention, and he will definitely try his best to sabotage this matter. Some Confucian scholars hoped to take this opportunity to show themselves in front of Suleiman. So...the minister thought...the Ottomans are hot-headed, and it is inevitable that they will come to the capital. Even if it is not Li Zheng, there will be Wang Zheng, Zhang Zheng. "
