Chapter 376 All Crazy

Chapter 372

Now there are only a little bit of money in Chang'an, and they are all trying to raise money, because everyone knows that this opportunity is rare, and Wei Hao just went to the house and found that there is a guest at home, who is a friend of his father, whom he met before.

"Hello, uncles!" Wei Hao smiled and said to them, clasping his hands.

"Hey, I can't help it, I've seen Duke Xia!" Several middle-aged people immediately stood up and said to Wei Hao.

"Well, come to chat with my dad. You guys are chatting. My dad doesn't have many friends here in Dongcheng. If you are free, you can come to the house more often!" Wei Hao said to them with a smile.

"Hey, good!" They stood there and said very carefully, Wei Hao is now the Duke of the state, his status is too high, they can only accompany carefully.

"Well, okay, you guys are chatting, I still have something to do!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Well, Duke Xia, I want to ask you something, isn't it convenient?" One of the middle-aged men immediately asked Wei Hao.

"Uncle Liu, tell me!" Wei Hao looked at the man with a smile.

"Are the rumors outside true?" the man looked at Wei Hao and asked carefully.

"What rumor? Oh, I just came out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Didn't I fight in Xicheng yesterday? I guess you know about it." Wei Hao asked them with a smile, and at the same time explained that he really didn't know.

"It's the fact that those workshops are going to sell their shares, is it true?" the man continued to ask.

"Well, oh, yes, it's true, prepare the money, and it will probably be sold soon. One person can only buy 10 shares of one workshop, but you can also find someone to line up. After all, whoever buys is also buying, we No restrictions on anyone, even beggars, if you have 10 pennies, you can buy it!" Wei Hao nodded and said to them with a smile.

"Then, Hao'er, do we want to buy it?" Wei Furong looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Why did our family buy this? Our family has 1000 shares, and I set up the workshop. We still need to buy it?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Shenyong and said, then cupped his hands at those people and said, "What are you talking about?" Come on, I still have something to do! I won’t be with you uncles anymore.”

"Hey, you are busy first!" The businessmen said immediately, and they were very happy in their hearts. Now they have heard the exact news, and this matter is true.

"Brother Jin Bao, your family doesn't need to buy it. See if this works. Brother, I want to borrow 3000 yuan from your family, with a profit, okay?" A person said to Wei Furong.

"Forget about the interest, you and my brother, you didn't help me less at the beginning. You guys, each with 3000 yuan, are old brothers. Don't talk about the interest. Buy as much as you can. I know Shen Yong. , the things you make are all good things, don't miss them!" Wei Furong said to them.

"Thank you Brother Jin Bao, we will return the money to you as soon as possible!" Those people said to Wei Furong very excitedly.

"Hey, don't worry, I don't need this, I don't worry about money now, I just wait, waiting to have grandchildren, you all have grandchildren, but I don't have one, sometimes envy, However, we will get married next spring, so we can see hope!" Wei Furong waved his hand and said.

"You still worry about this, Shenyong has two wives, and, as you said yourself, His Majesty and Dai Guogong will both marry 8 girls as dowries, which means 18 women, so you are worried about not having grandchildren? I'm worried that you won't be able to carry me!" One of them said to Wei Furong with a smile, and Wei Furong was also very happy to hear that.

"It's fine to have two, as long as they are better than me. My family has five generations. If there are two, it will be considered a branch, and I will be worthy of my ancestors." Wei Furong said while stroking his beard.

"Brother Jin Bao, you are enjoying the blessings. This child has a great future. Our brothers, who doesn't envy you, the huge Duke's mansion, the family's fertile land is tens of thousands of acres, and the daughter-in-law is still the eldest princess and the right servant. The prostitute who shoots, you say, this kind of strength is also one of the best in Chang'an City!" The other person smiled and complimented Wei Furong, Wei Furong also smiled, it is true,

And Wei Hao knows now that it must be Li Shimin who spread the news, the purpose is to put pressure on those officials,
"Alright, it seems that we need to write an announcement!" Wei Hao sat in the conservatory, thought for a while, then took out a pen, and began to write on the paper. He wanted to write an announcement to let the world know.
However, the date has not been set yet. This still needs to be discussed with Li Shimin. It is not good to make a rash decision. Moreover, considering that the imperial examination is two days away, I heard that the number of candidates participating in the imperial examination this time has reached 1. Therefore, the previous examination room It has been expanded, and now the library is said to be full, and the students in the school are also taking the scientific examination.

After Wei Hao finished writing at home, he couldn't help but think of the library and school. These two units are managed by himself, but he needs to inspect it.
Soon, Wei Hao rode to the study building, and walked into the study building with his own soldiers. The person in charge of the study building, knowing that Wei Hao was coming, also ran to greet him. Wei Hao is still here The person in charge, they need to come to Wei Hao's side every month to report the situation of the library.

"So many people?" Wei Hao just entered, and found that there are many scholars reading here, even outside, there are a large number of students standing and reading with books.

"That's not it. Candidates from other places came here to take the imperial examination, and they all came here to read books. Now, the library is open day and night for those scholars to read." The official here reported to Wei Hao.

"Well, are there too many books now? How many books have you collected?" Wei Hao asked.

"There are too many. According to the standards of the Duke, as long as the handwriting is clear and there are no typos in the content, books are collected for one penny and one hundred characters. As long as they transcribe, we will buy them. At present, there are about 50 books of each type. , according to the request of the Duke of the country, after more than 50 copies, it will not be accepted!" The official continued to say to Wei Hao.

"Okay!" Wei Hao nodded, and continued to walk in with his hands behind his back. The corridors are full of scholars, all of whom are reading tirelessly with their books. Wei Hao is also very happy. These are the future pillars of the court. According to this There are at least 2 people reading books here. These are the talents that the court needs. Although not everyone can be an official, with such a large foundation, they can always select enough people to come. .

Wei Hao inspected the library and felt very satisfied. However, Wei Hao also wanted to expand the place, thinking that the open space behind could also be used as a library.

"After the beginning of spring, come to my house to remind me that all this area will be built into a book building, which will be able to accommodate more students to read books, and then all three-story buildings will be built!" Wei Hao turned to the official. Said.

"Yes, my lord, but it will cost a lot of money. Will the Ministry of Civil Affairs approve so much money then?" The official looked at Wei Hao worriedly and said.

"You don't need approval from the Ministry of Civil Affairs, just ask for it directly from internal funds." Wei Hao looked at the official and said, the official heard it and nodded. Soon, Wei Hao went back, returned home, and found Cheng Chu Si and the others are also there, Cheng Chusi, Yuchi Baolin, and Li Dejian are all three.

"Yo ho, what's the matter, the three of you are here, let's go to Juxian Tower for dinner!" Wei Hao said to them.

"I won't go to Juxian Tower, do you know? When you went out, how many guests came to your house?" Cheng Chusi said to Wei Hao with a smile.

"Guests? What's the matter?" Wei Hao didn't realize it all at once, how could there be guests in his home. "Ask your father. Many people came to look for you. Your father said you were not at the house, so they went back." Li Dejian said to Wei Hao. Wei Hao was very suspicious and didn't understand what they wanted to play with him. .

"Probably I came to you to inquire about those workshops. For example, those workshops have high profits and are worth buying, but those workshops have low profits!" Li Dejian continued to say to Wei Hao.

"Oh, it's all good, really, I'm not trying to perfuse you, these workshops are well done, and each workshop has a profit of 10 yuan a year. You guys, just go buy it. Of course, for the sake of fairness, I don’t set any restrictions this time, that is, everyone can buy,
If you have servants in your family, you can also let them sign up. If you are selected by the lottery, you can also buy it in the name of your servants. After one month, you can go to the workshop to register the transaction, and then transfer it to your family You can buy as much as you can. There are not many opportunities like this. You can pay back your capital in two years at most. If it is the fastest, you may be able to make a small profit this year. So, seize this opportunity. "Wei Hao sat there and reminded them.

"Well, we will understand what you said." Li Dejian said happily.

"Well, brother-in-law, don't worry about buying it. I will prepare 5 guan for you, and you can buy it with 1 guan. You two brothers, I will prepare [-] guan for you. You can use the [-] guan to buy it." You don’t need to compare yourself with your uncle, right?” Wei Hao looked at them with a smile and said.

"Hey, thank you, how dare you compare with him, don't worry, we will definitely return it to you as soon as possible!" Cheng Chusi was so excited when he heard this, he cupped his hands at Wei Hao and said, who would dare to fight with Li Dejian? Compare?What is his identity, Wei Hao's uncle, it is impossible for Wei Hao not to take care of him.

"It's okay, just queue up as much as possible, don't be afraid!" Wei Hao said to them.

"Well, let's go to Juxian Building for dinner today, and we'll treat you!" Yuchi Baolin said to Wei Hao.

"Come on, let me go to Juxian Building for dinner, do you still need a treat? Come again when you make money!" Wei Hao said with a smile and waved his hands.

"Actually, I made it. The brick workshop brought a lot of income to my family. You also know that last year was the happiest year for my father. It can be regarded as finding a way to solve the houses of the other brothers. This spring , I just decided on a marriage for Saburo, and the marriage between Shiro and Goro is also being discussed, and my father hasn't scolded me much this year, saying that I did a good job, which relieved him a lot of pressure!" Cheng Chusi said with a smile stand up.

"It's okay, when you're worried that you won't be able to find a daughter-in-law, tell me if you need money, buy a house or need to build a mansion, tell me, you know, my family has a lot of money!" Wei Hao said to Cheng Chusi.

"I know, don't worry now. This year, there is probably a lot of bricks at the brick workshop. The business is very good now. My father, a few days ago, went to Juxian Building to buy 10 yuan of tea. For entertaining guests, if it was two years ago, my father would not dare to spend money like this!" Cheng Chusi said with a smile,

Wei Hao nodded, knowing that Cheng Yaojin was under a lot of pressure, and his six sons needed to settle down. The key point is that his six sons were similar to him, and they were all a little tiger, but they didn't learn Cheng Yaojin's shrewdness. The only boss, Cheng Chusi, has won the true biography of Cheng Yaojin. Therefore, Cheng Chusi is also the one Cheng Yaojin likes the most at home, but he is also the one who gets scolded the most. Who calls him the boss? What did the younger brothers do? Things, he should be unlucky.

"Hao'er, Hao'er, the Crown Prince is here!" Wei Furong hurried over and said to Wei Hao.

"Ah, is the crown prince coming?" Wei Hao heard it, looked at Wei Furong in shock, then stood up and walked outside, but before Wei Hao reached the corridor, Li Chengqian came in by himself.

"Oh, uncle, who are you?" Wei Hao looked at Li Chengqian in difficulty.

"Gu just come and walk casually, it doesn't need to be so formal, I will go to see the old man later, how many of you are there?" Li Chengqian said with a smile and waved his hands.

"Well, I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The three of them also hurriedly handed over their hands.

"Well, no courtesy, let's go, go to your conservatory for tea, it's rare for Gu to come out!" Li Chengqian said to Wei Hao.

"Uncle, please!" Wei Hao said to Li Chengqian, and soon, several people came to the greenhouse, and Wei Hao made tea for the prince.

"Uncle, you don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so what kind of workshop should I buy?" Wei Hao said to Li Chengqian with a smile,
Li Chengqian smiled and nodded Wei Hao with his hand, and then said: "Who doesn't want this now? We all know that this is an opportunity to make a lot of money. If you are dissatisfied, say that the East Palace has [-] to [-] yuan. If you want to buy some, now you are also married. Now, I have a child, I can’t just ask my mother for all the money, I’ll be scolded, and besides, I’m sure there will be many children in the future, so I should buy something for them!”

He didn't tell the truth, he didn't dare to say that he had a lot of money in the East Palace. After all, there were other people here, and he knew that Wei Hao knew that the East Palace was rich.

"The three of them also asked just now. In fact, those workshops are all good. I specially selected them. You can buy them with confidence. You can buy as much as you can." Wei Hao looked at the three of them. One, said to Li Chengqian.

"Oh, that's fine, that Gu knows it in his heart!" Li Chengqian nodded and said, he still believed what Wei Hao said,
Then after they chatted for a while, the man in charge of the mansion came again, saying that Wei Yuan, the patriarch, had come over. Wei Hao knew that they were all here to inquire about this matter, and when Li Chengqian saw it, he said goodbye to Wei Hao first. , go see the old man,

After Wei Yuanzhao came over, he also inquired about this matter. Wei Hao could only tell him, and then other acquaintances came to inquire about the situation. There was no way, Wei Hao could only let the three of them go back first. He had no way to go to Juxian Tower After dinner, until before the curfew, guests always came to inquire, and Wei Hao told the truth, and they also believed Wei Hao's words.

The next day, it was the day of going to court. Wei Hao didn't go, but went to Dongcheng to see those workshops. Now those workshops are still in residential houses, and there are not many people, but the output is quite a lot. ,

Still, it wasn't enough to sell.Wei Hao called the main persons in charge of those workshops to a workshop and sat down to drink tea together. "Do you know the news?" Wei Hao looked at the craftsmen and asked.

"I know, thank you, Duke!" The craftsmen all stood up when they heard Wei Hao's question, and said to Wei Hao.

"Well, it doesn't matter. In fact, I could have given you more shares, but I can't. If you give too much, you will be killed. I'm not alarmist. After all, you can't keep such a big fortune. , such as this workshop, Lao Chen?" Wei Hao called the person in charge of the workshop as he spoke.

"Hey, my lord!" Lao Chen immediately stood up and looked at Wei Hao.

"Here you are a master craftsman, and the rest of them are all your apprentices. There are 1000 people in total. You get 300 shares. The other seven apprentices, the 100 shares, have an income of 1000 yuan a year. Including the current income, I estimate that each of you can get thousands of dollars. That’s fine. If there is too much, someone will kill you! In the future, you can also get 1000 dollars a year. I can accomplish a lot of things, and I dare not say that I am rich, but I can still do it without worrying about food and clothing!" Wei Hao said while sitting there, looking at Old Chen.

"Yes, yes, Grandpa, you don't need to explain. We know that the outside world is crazy and they are all asking for news. We also know that these shares must be very tight. If we get more, it will be really terrible. Yes, it’s not bad to be able to use about 1000 yuan a year in dividends, which is more than the money in the Ministry of Industry!” Lao Chen said to Wei Hao, and the others nodded to Wei Hao.

"Grandpa, we are also in the court. We know how dark things are inside, and I would like to thank you for thinking about us. This is the safest share. If there are too many, you What you said, if you can't keep it and don't say it, maybe you will be killed, it's not necessary,
Grandpa, don't worry, everyone is grateful to you, although it seems that there is a lot of money, but then again, how much did you give up yourself, Grandpa?We also know.If you don't distribute those workshops to the royal family, now you still have money in the Ministry of Civil Affairs? "The person in charge of another workshop said to Wei Hao.

"Ha, okay, everyone understands, I won't say more, I'm worried that you will say that your shares are less, if this is the case, I don't know what to do, I can give it to you, but, hey , as long as you understand!" Wei Hao said while sitting there, looking at them with a wry smile.
