My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 306
Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan were furious in their hearts. Xu Jingchang has cheated people not once or twice... This time, he directly treated them as fat pigs and slaughtered them to wipe them clean.

This was something that the two of them could not agree to no matter what. Why should the family fortune accumulated so hard be taken away in a few words?
But unfortunately, Empress Xu is here. To a certain extent, this person's deterrence is much greater than Zhu Di... You can still reason with your father, but if you meet your mother, then ask yourself Fu it.

Empress Xu doesn't care about those messes. The property controlled by the two bastards is too big, which is not the blessing of Ming Dynasty, nor their blessing.

"Xu Jingchang, tell me, what should I do?"

Xu Jingchang said: "Auntie, do you think it's okay to take out the properties of King Han and King Zhao, auction them off in batches, or hand them over to merchants, maybe run by their subordinates... As for the bank, it will be transferred to the household department , led by the imperial court, and then set up several banks and banks. As for the residence newspaper, it is also split up, current affairs, poetry, leisure, novels, business news... Anyway, they are divided into categories and sold... As for What to do specifically, we will draw up a detailed charter later, anyway, it won’t hurt King Han and King Zhao.”

Empress Xu smiled and nodded, "You have always been meticulous and careful in handling things, and I have nothing to worry about, so let's do it this way." After finishing speaking, Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di, "What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Zhu Di was dumbfounded, you've got your eyes peeled, why are you asking me?
Zhu Di also simply said: "You can decide this matter. In short, the whole family, don't hurt your peace."

Zhu Di is also interesting. When the trouble has come to this point, you say don't hurt your peace, isn't that nonsense?
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't fight, Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San wanted to join forces to kill Xu Jingchang, and by the way, Zhu Gaochi would be hacked into pieces.

It's been several years, and finally I can see clearly that Xu Jingchang always stands with the boss at critical times, including the queen mother, who also favors the boss.

Suppressing us is nothing more than to stabilize the position of the boss.

"Mother, the baby is not feeling well, so I will take my leave first." Zhu Gaoxu turned around and left.

Zhu Gaosui was not as tempered as his second brother, so he could only say: "Queen, my son has to sort out the family property and hand it over. From now on, my son will be a pauper."

The guy was wronged and left, leaving only Xu Jingchang, Zhu Gaochi, and Empress Xu.

Empress Xu pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let's go, there is no need to be afraid...Jingchang, go and prepare some dishes, let's drink together."

Xu Jingchang didn't dare to neglect, even Zhu Di could eat, and his aunt's treatment must be much higher than Zhu Di's.

Replaced with new dishes and good wine, pushed the cup to change, and drank.

While drinking, Empress Xu snorted, "These two bastards are short-sighted, thinking that my mother has harmed them. But they don't know that it is not their blessing to be rich in the enemy's country for no reason. Listen to me If you split up earlier, you can still be a prince of Taiping, so as not to harm yourself."

After Empress Xu finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Zhu Gaochi, "Boss, the queen mother and your father are not young, one day you will ascend the throne and become emperor, you can beat and scold these two younger brothers... Only other brothers can kill, that's all."

Zhu Gaochi nodded quickly, how dare he have the thought of killing brothers!
Empress Xu looked at Xu Jingchang again, "Nephew, when you wrote to me for help, I hurried to Beijing... Maybe you still have hatred in your heart, or maybe you forgot... Auntie doesn't want to ask any more questions, but I just ask you For my aunt's sake, don't provoke them, and please hold your hands high to keep the Zhu family's face."

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Auntie, I have put aside everything in the past. Sitting in this position, if you don't even have this kind of heart, then get out as soon as possible. And... this time, the properties of King Han and King Zhao will be split up. I am not harming them, and I am not worried that their property will be too large and affect the court. I am not helping His Royal Highness maintain the reserve position... You really misunderstood me, this time I am doing it for the good of King Han and King Zhao."

When Empress Xu heard this, she couldn't help showing a hesitant expression.

"Nephew, you didn't lie, did you?"

Xu Jingchang said: "How could it be? I'm planning to clarify the matter with King Zhao of Han. They need to open up the situation."

Empress Xu thought for a while, then said with a smile: "Nephew Jingchang, let's put it this way, if you can make the second and third children accept this matter happily, it will be considered that my aunt owes you a favor."

"Add me!" Zhu Gaochi also added: "Cousin, this time I have seen the suffering of the people, and I also feel that as a heavenly family, I shouldn't occupy too much wealth and want extravagance... I have no fear What the second and third child mean, if you can explain the matter clearly, I would be very grateful."

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's a trivial matter, nothing to worry about."

Xu Jingchang is taking everything, and Empress Xu and Zhu Gaochi are dubious... Xu Jingchang's level is clear to them, but this kind of heart-wrenching matter can be expected to be forgiven. Zhu Lao Er and Zhu Lao San are not fools.Even a fool will not be angry.

How capable are you, Xu Jingchang?

We are very skeptical.

Faced with doubts, Xu Jingchang didn't talk too much. Anyway, it will be clear in two days... On the third day, people found that Xu Jingchang and King Zhao of Han joined hands, took a carriage, and ran to the Qinhuai River to listen to the Phoenix. The sun is blooming.

That's right, after cleaning up the many painted boats, there were many opera performances on the Qinhuai River. As the Flower Drum Opera in Lao Zhu's hometown, it naturally became the official opera of the Ming Dynasty Hall.

To change the name, it is called Guocui.

Xu Jingchang was able to quickly reconcile with the two kings, which is true, so people are dumbfounded. So what exactly did Xu Jingchang say to them?

pattern!

It is the word pattern!

"Hanwang Highness, look at you. What kind of business do you do? Loans, textiles, real estate... Go back 1000 years, and you have already existed. Don't you feel ashamed?"

Zhu Gaoxu only gave Xu Jingchang a big roll of his eyes, "I am most ashamed that I met you! I made friends carelessly!"

Xu Jingchang sighed again, "You still think I hurt you, don't you?"

"Hanwang, you need to upgrade your industry."

Zhu Gaoxu just rolled his eyes, not believing it at all.

"King of Han, have you ever thought about it? The business of weaving depends on the raw silk and cotton of the common people, and the non-stop work of the weavers... After all, the money that can be earned is very limited. It can only be used as a preliminary Accumulation, you can’t do it for a lifetime, why don’t you understand such a little truth?”

Zhu Gaoxu snorted and said, "Xu Jingchang, no matter how sweet your words are, it's useless. What can you do for a lifetime? Could it be that you can't do it because you are in charge of the government?"

Xu Jingchang sighed again, "Zhu Gaoxu, I'll just say the next thing once. If you don't like to hear it, then forget it. It's the same when I tell others... His Royal Highness is making big moves in Jiangxi, and I will also send people to investigate Just a moment. It’s in Pingxiang County, Yuanzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi, where there are amazing reserves of very high-quality coal, coal, you know? It’s something that can be used for heating. The quality of coal mines in Jiangxi is very good, not only for heating, but also for heating. It is also possible to smelt steel. You should know what steel means! Coal mines can be dug every day, and steel can be produced regardless of winter or summer. This thing has a wide range of uses and amazing profits. It is much more useful than silk."

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, and after a while he said coldly: "You want to trick me into tinkering with coal mines?"

Xu Jingchang snorted and said, "Zhu Gaoxu, it's hard to run a business for you for several years. I thought you really learned the essence, but now it seems that you are also a fool! The textile business is to compete with the people for profit. From the grain field Looting raw materials. Don’t look at me helping you settle a lot of things, sooner or later there will still be accidents. The scale of the textile business must be controlled. But, to do other more advanced businesses, you can’t do without the money earned by the textile industry. "

"Now you are sitting on the largest private capital in Ming Dynasty... Next you go to tinker with the coal mines. Tens of millions of people rely on you to keep warm in winter. Smelting steel, up to weapons and armor, guns and swords, down to the iron and steel of the common people The pots, kitchen knives... all fell into your hands. And the mine is set up, which affects only one county, but can earn wealth every day. The court officials will only support it. I say that, you If I don’t like to do it, there is King Zhao who will do it, and King Zhao will not do it, I will go to King Qi, but no one will do it, so I will persuade His Majesty... to leave!"

"and many more!"

Xu Jingchang kicked in and out of the door. Just as he was about to leave, Zhu Gaoxu quickly stopped him.

In the next second, Zhu Gaoxu ran up in front of Xu Jingchang, with a big smile on his face, like a beckoning cat.

"My dear brother, since you have such a good idea, why didn't you tell me earlier? I misunderstood my dear brother."

Xu Jingchang snorted coldly, "You can talk about this matter casually? Many people are asking how the imperial court plans to plan Jiangxi's land... If they know that there is such a big piece of fat, can they let it go? I can only let you go. Then you will have the strongest wealth. At this time, even if others want to grab it, they will not have the strength. Do you understand?"

"Understood! Understood!" Zhu Gaoxu rubbed his hands, and said with a naive smile: "How else can we say that we are brothers, and the boss is a bastard at all, he wants to cheat me, now it's all right, let's shoot myself in the foot. I'm going to make him cry!"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "King of Han, now that I'm here, I'll give you some things... You don't have to hold all the accountants and shopkeepers in your hands. It's best to let them out. What you need most now Those who are mining talents, those who know how to smelt, those who build roads, those who can make all kinds of exquisite machinery, and those who make weapons and firearms... These are the real treasures. You need to rely on technology, rely on real skills, Let the world look up to... By the way, how about I give you a name?"

"what name?"

"Looking up at the Iron Manufacture!"

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Your industry is called Yangwang Iron and Steel. Around steel, you have built the core of heavy industry in Ming Dynasty. You will be the king of steel, weapons, and firearms in Ming Dynasty!"
