Chapter 925 The way of teaching children (first update, please subscribe)
After Zuo Zongtang withdrew, Emperor Zhu continued to flip through the documents on the table as usual. After dealing with a few documents, he finally set his sights on Zhu Youlin, sitting behind a small desk beside him. , this would have done the homework.

"You Lin, do you know why you did this as a father?"

Putting down the book in his hand, Zhu Youlin thought for a while and said.

"The land in the imperial capital must be worth tens of thousands of gold in the future. The reason why my father asked Zuo Xiang to buy the land is because Zuo Xiang deserves extra rewards for my hard work and great achievements in Ming Dynasty,"

"Well, You Lin, remember that even if you are an emperor, you need to win over people's hearts, not to be an independent monarch. The so-called ruthless king means that the laws of the country are ruthless, but human feelings must be considered... "

Being an emperor is also very helpless. After all, the emperor also needs to win over people's hearts, and more importantly, he needs to understand human nature... As for human feelings!The same has to be taken into consideration.

"The child understands."

Nodding his head, Zhu Xianhai asked again.

"anything else?"

"There is also a warning."

Zhu Youlin said.

"After the construction of the national capital, it will inevitably cause the price of land to skyrocket. Whether it is investing in land or building commercial buildings, the profits will be more than a hundred times. Money is moving people's hearts. It is inevitable that some officials will have crooked ideas..."

After a pause, Zhu Youlin said again.

"Just like when a railway station is being built, there will always be people who buy land near the station in advance and make huge profits from it, and the prosecutor's office always investigates and cracks down on this, and there are still people who try their best. Father asked Zuo Xiang to buy land, since it is a reward, he is also a police officer, which means that rewards and punishments are clearly defined."

Looking at his son who analyzed his intentions one by one like a little adult, Emperor Zhu laughed.

"There is indeed an intention in this regard, but it is more about rewards. As for the police... Zuo Zongtang is a person who knows the general situation, and he will not be greedy for that little thing."

Youlin is still too young, and his ideas are still immature, but it's okay, he has plenty of time to learn by himself.

……

The black BMW car was galloping on the park-like Chang'an Avenue. Zuo Zongtang, who was sitting in the car, closed his eyes, thinking about what His Majesty said.

"Your Majesty is so generous, how can I repay His Majesty..."

Pursing his lips, Zuo Zongtang's mood was naturally agitated.

Although he knew that such a reward was His Majesty's way of winning people's hearts, it would be a lie to say that he was not excited.

What is the land outside the first phase planning area of ​​​​a thousand acres of empire?
It is wealth!
It is the family business of the Zuo family for generations!

As a commercial use, from then on, the Zuo family will benefit from it inexhaustibly.

In addition to being grateful, Zuo Zongtang certainly knew that His Majesty was also reminding him that the construction of the imperial capital would never allow anyone to profit from it.Your Majesty who deserves the reward will not be stingy with the reward, but if someone stretches out his hand, then... don't blame the law of the country for being ruthless.

After all, it is His Majesty!
While sighing in his heart, Zuo Zongtang understood what he should do. In the process of building the imperial capital, one must not be soft-hearted.

The car soon drove into the Zuojia mansion in the new urban area in the southwest. This house covers an area of ​​3000 square meters. The mansion built three years ago has been called "Xiangfu" since the day it was built. The two-lane alley in front of the gate is also known as "Xiangfu Lane". After the car enters the courtyard, the car just stops in front of the house, and a servant comes forward to open the door.

"Master, the young master is back!"

The butler's words made Zuo Zongtang laugh out loud.

"Haha, Xiaowei is back? Why did he have time to come back!"

Zuo Zongtang, who didn’t have a son until he was 34 years old, naturally loves his eldest son very much. Unlike others, Zuo Xiaowei was interested in military affairs. He liked to study the art of war when he was young. After he came to Nanhua, he was admitted to the Army Academy , he is 30 years old, and now he is a lieutenant colonel in the army. He has been serving on the northern border of Shanxi.

As soon as he entered the door, Zuo Zongtang saw his son whom he hadn't seen for half a year, and said with a smile.

"Xiaowei, how did you have time to come back, you haven't come back for half a year, your mother misses you very much!"

"Father is an unfilial child, which makes father and mother worry!"

Zuo Xiaowei quickly replied.

"Well, your mother is a woman's opinion. As a soldier, it is also a duty to defend the country's borders. Let alone half a year, it is a year. That is a very common thing. Your response this time is..."

Probably not a vacation.

Now is the time of war, how can soldiers take vacations?Even vacations are short vacations.

"Father, the boy is passing by Yingtian."

His son's words made Zuo Zongtang's heart thump, and he looked at his son and asked.

"Going to the front line."

"Um,"

Nodding his head, Zuo Zongtang didn't say anything, he also fought the Taiping Army on the battlefield for many years.

"Father, my boy is an empire and a soldier, how can I sit idly by during this war, so my boy asked the military department to go to the front line..."

"I know."

Zuo Zongtang nodded and said.

"As a soldier, you always have to go to the front line. When will you leave?"

When he learned that his son was going to leave tomorrow, Zuo Zongtang didn't say anything but nodded slightly.

"Go, go and accompany your mother first."

...The next morning, unlike usual, Zuo Zongtang did not go directly to the Executive Yuan, but ordered the driver to drive towards the pier, from where Xiaowei was going to join the army today.

Along the way, neither father nor son said anything, Zuo Xiaowei said as he looked at his father who closed his eyes and said nothing. "Father, has Xiaoxun written a letter recently?"

Xiao Xun is the third child of Zuo Zongtang's family. He is a naval officer and entered the fleet after graduating from the Naval Academy.

"Well, I received two letters earlier. The Zhenyang Fleet is in the Mediterranean Sea. It's almost like a vacation. Speaking of which, you have been on the Shanxi border for the past few years. There are deserts everywhere and the border. It is much harder than him. .”

Zuo Xiaowei laughed at his father's words.

"Army, you always have to suffer. Xiaoxun was clamoring all day long to see the world, and now his wish has come true..."

The father and son deliberately did not talk about the war, but talked about brothers and sisters, and they talked more about family affairs.

Finally, when the car arrived at the pier, there was already a sea of ​​people. The pier was crowded with soldiers and people who came to see him off. Tell the driver to stop.When Zuo Xiaowei was about to get off the car, Zuo Zongtang said.

"Xiaowei."

Zuo Xiaowei, who had just got out of the car, quickly bent down and supported the roof of the car to look at his father.

"When you're on the front line, don't worry about being a father, just serve the country faithfully!"

"Kids know!"

Nodding his head and smiling at his father, Zuo Xiaowei turned around and left, looking at his son's back, Zuo Zongtang couldn't help but heaved a long sigh with some reluctance in his heart, and spoke after a while.

"Let's go!"

When the car drove away, he looked away again, as if he wanted to find the familiar figure from the green...
