Chapter 380 Shen Wansan used the wrong rules

Chapter 380: Shen Wansan used the wrong rules

Mr. Hu's originally uneventful but pleasant "backyard life" was temporarily suspended after Shen Wansan's troubles.

Mr. Hu didn't think much of Shen Wansan.

He was just curious.

What on earth was this bastard thinking?

How dare you visit your own door?

Do you really think that Lao Zhu didn't kill him because he was worried about his reputation?
To be honest, Mr. Hu feels magical just thinking about this possibility.

Zhu Yuanzhang, worried about reputation?

Pooh!
This is hard to say, let alone be believed.

Nowadays, not to mention old officials like Mr. Hu who have a deep relationship with Zhu Yuanzhang, even the newly promoted civil and military officials in the court know about it.

Lao Zhu's attitude towards fame is really "yes, yes, no, it doesn't matter"!

Especially when Lao Zhu wants to kill someone, issues such as benefits, tricks, comfort, etc. may all be taken into consideration by Lao Zhu.

But as for reputation, you may either not think of it, think of it afterward, or simply put it at the end and think about it for a moment.

It can be said that for a man of action like Lao Zhu, he really doesn't care about reputation, something that can only be seen after death.

Anyway, he saw very clearly that no matter whether he did well or not, there would always be people who would scold him.

Anyway, when the others are gone, will it still matter whether he is famous or not?
On the contrary, the immediate benefits are tangible and can be seen.

It is precisely because of these values ​​that are very logical and self-consistent that Zhu Yuanzhang cannot be said to have abandoned his reputation, but he can also be said to be slightly disgusted.

Precisely because he knew Zhu Yuanzhang's extremely flexible, practical and simple values, after Mr. Hu drove Shen Wansan out, he arranged for Hu Yi to go find out the news.

Nothing else, I just want to know how serious Shen Wansan's attempt to commit suicide was.

As a result, after Hu Yi was assigned this errand, he didn't move and just cupped his hands.

"Master, you don't need to go out to do these things, I already know this!"

"We can only accept it. This wealthy businessman really has no intention of restraining himself at all, and almost everyone in Manying Tiancheng knows about it."

"You don't even need to go there to ask me about it. Whenever I go out these days, I'm basically talking about this!"

Mr. Hu was startled when he heard this, and then suddenly took a breath of air.

"He...is so brave?"

Hu Yi smiled when he heard this: "Master, maybe in the eyes of this wealthy businessman, he is confident?!"

"After all, maybe he feels that His Majesty will take action or be hesitant because of the many contacts he has had in recent days?"

Mr. Hu nodded with deep understanding.

"That's right, don't tell me, then I'm afraid Shen Wansan really thinks so!"

"He has brought the local law of not punishing the public to the court and Yingtian Mansion!"

"It's just that he can't get enough of it. He treats the court and Yingtian Mansion as his hometown!"

"Dead!"

Hu Yi nodded in agreement, feeling that his master had hit the nail on the head and was absolutely right.

In fact, Mr. Hu is not the only one who can see this.

More than a thousand people in Manying Tianfu can see this.

But no one stood up!

Even the further back you go, the more taboo you get.

Because all fools know that Shen Wansan's unscrupulous and unconcealed attitude has definitely fallen into Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. At this time, if I jump out and become a fool who tears off the "Emperor's New Clothes".

Haha, do you think the emperor will thank you?

What's more, it's not the emperor who is making a fool of himself now.

It's just that the emperor will most likely take this opportunity to act cruelly.

Therefore, although there was no clear edict, the managers of Manyingtian City invariably kept their mouths shut.

Of course, if Shen Wansan came to find him, he would still have to accept the gifts that should be received.

After all, not everyone is like Mr. Hu's house. Not only does the family have a lot of property, but the palace also sends many valuable rewards from time to time, and they don't care about money and food at all.

After hearing what Hu Yi said about these things on the street, Mr. Hu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, it seems that Shen Wansan's ending is already doomed.

Then, he would just wait and see.

Nothing else to say.

In fact, Mr. Hu was not allowed to wait long. Zhu Yuanzhang summoned Shen Wansan just the day after Shen Wansan left the Hu Mansion.

Obviously, Shen Wansan's previous behavior of frantically visiting civil and military officials was indeed noticed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

But he just looked at it, quite motionless.

But after Shen Wansan even ran over to the Hu Mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't sit still.

Damn it, even the people in Weiyong's house are looking for you. How many people are you planning to look for?

Forget it, don’t wait any longer, just play the gongs and drums in person.

Shen Wansan didn't know whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. When he learned the news that Zhu Yuanzhang summoned him, he was actually quite proud.

Perhaps in his eyes, he was accustomed to running rampant in the local area, and he really thought that the law did not punish the public, but it was an unspeakable unspoken rule of officialdom.

Not to mention, Shen Wansan, as the famous richest man in Ming Dynasty, had contacted many people before.

It’s far more than just contacting people when you arrive at Yingtian Mansion.

In his opinion, he has friends all over the world and a wide network of contacts. Once he is arrested and imprisoned, the world will be excited, and Zhu Yuanzhang will have to be careful no matter what he does.

By then, can’t we sit down and talk?

Therefore, after being called to the palace by Zhu Yuanzhang, he showed no signs of timidity after respectfully presenting gifts.

On the contrary, he directly proposed the core purpose of coming to Yingtian Mansion this time - sea trade!
The implication behind the words is that he wants to get a sea trade brand seriously and then go to sea to do business.

Zhu Yuanzhang was playing with the crystal-clear, deep-green imperial green piece sent by Shen Wansan in his hand, and sat there in silence.

Neither said no nor said yes.

This is actually Lao Zhu thinking about things.

But Shen Wansan didn't know.

In his opinion, according to business rules, after making a request, he has to make a bid.

Then if Zhu Yuanzhang is not satisfied, then Zhu Yuanzhang will either make a counter-offer or discount the "goods".

Anyway, those are things to be discussed in the second round.

No matter what you do!

So, he calmly gave his "price"!
"The common people are willing to contribute money and effort to build the city wall for the entire Yingtian City in exchange. I wonder how your Majesty feels about it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly raised his head and looked at Shen Wansan as if he was looking at a psycho.

What did you just say?
Do you want to build a city wall for us?
