Chapter 205 I Have Gained Benefits

Whether it's true or false, he did a great job in this round of scenes today.

Which Majesty doesn't want him to be majestic, so that ordinary people will tell the truth when they see him, and dare not tell lies?And like Shen Cong, after standing in the court hall, he completely evolved his villainous heart, and was able to make major moves that benefit the country and the people. This is simply the highest level of flattery.

It shows that you ruled well and governed well!

In addition, this is also a time to retreat.

Now that the iron ore is exposed, it is obviously impossible to keep it, at least not all of it!Instead of waiting for the court to speak, it is better to take the initiative by yourself, first to gain a good impression, and second, to gain more benefits.

Can Yue Huang take it away in vain?

Of course not, at least a lot of things must be rewarded!Shen Cong won't be too bad.

Yue Huang's expression was really shocked.

The country of Yue lacks iron, and this iron mine can be said to be of great significance. He originally thought about how to take it back so that it would not be too ugly, but now Shen Cong showed up on his own initiative.

Huaiyuanhou said in a low voice at this time: "Your Majesty, don't feel embarrassed, this iron ore should be taken back to the country, and this iron ore will be used to make weapons at that time, and it will be of great use!"

Emperor Yue...

He didn't feel embarrassed at all, he just hesitated how to reward him.

However, Huaiyuan Hou said so, which made Yue Huang look at him with admiration. Yue Huang asked: "Mrs. Shi Zi also has a share in this Xishan. Don't you want to make your beloved daughter suffer?"

Marquis Huaiyuan chuckled, "What are you talking about, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Yue originally thought that he was going to say next, this is all for the country and the people, where there is a loss, there is no loss, but Su Tang followed up and said: "Your Majesty will still make Luo Luo suffer, and he will definitely make up for it!"

Emperor Yue...

There is no one else who is such an upright courtier!
Originally, the atmosphere in the hall was dignified, but when Marquis Huaiyuan interrupted him like this, everyone couldn't laugh or cry, and for a while, the oppressive atmosphere dissipated a lot.

The Emperor Yue took a few breaths and said, "As Marquis Huaiyuan said, the iron mine matter is the lifeblood of the country. Since you have a patriotic heart, Shen Cong, I can't discourage you from your enthusiasm, but this iron mine is yours after all. I can't bear to take it all away from the family business, so let's do it, I will take back [-]% of the [-]% of the shares in your hand, and leave [-]% to you. I will take back [-]% of the [-]% of the shares in the hands of Mrs. Qi. Every year, a part of the iron ore mined by the imperial court in Xishan will be allocated to you according to this ratio, as long as you don't use it to make weapons, I will not limit your use!"

Shen Cong was overjoyed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Although it is only [-]%, but now he is hugging Yue Huang's thigh, who will dare to despise him in the future?This [-]% iron ore may not make much money, but this status will make it easier for him in the future.

Su Luo also knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The Emperor Yue has already made a conclusion, and there is no need to refuse at this time, not to mention that there is only half of the iron ore, and it will not be a big deal, so there is no need to worry about being jealous.

It's just an extra penny.

The Emperor Yue said again: "Su Luo, you bought the shares with 1 taels of silver back then, and I don't want you to lose money. Now, I will give you 3 taels of silver!"

3 taels!
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded.

The officials of the Ministry of Households were frowning, the treasury is not full, His Majesty waved his big hand and opened his golden mouth, how will they fill the hole at the end of the year.

Probably because the Minister of the Household Department was too worried, the Emperor Yue said: "These 3 taels, 1 taels will go from the treasury, and 2 taels will go from my private treasury!"

The servant of the Ministry of Finance had a good-looking complexion, and hurriedly knelt down pretendingly: "Your Majesty is really a Mingjun!"

The people below also fell to their knees, all singing praises.

Yue Huang waved his hand, then looked at Shen Cong: "Baron Shen, get up!"

male, baron?

Shen Cong was at a loss!

Yue Huang said: "Baron Shen's donation to Xishan this time is a great contribution to Sheji. I will give you the title of Baron of Xishan and five hundred households in the city!"

Shen Cong was stunned, and he kowtowed heavily until Prime Minister Bai reminded him to thank him: "What kind of people are you, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Yue Huang smiled kindly: "From now on, I will call myself a humble minister!"

"Wei, I thank Your Majesty Long En!" Shen Cong said, and kowtowed again.

Male prince, the baron is the lowest among all the titles, and the five hundred households are also the least, but no matter how low he is, he is still a noble. Since then, Shen Cong has been among the ranks of nobles.

Moreover, this baron can be passed on from generation to generation, that is to say, from now on, his son and grandson will all be barons as long as they do not commit heinous crimes.

Even though Shen Cong was calm, he also felt a little dizzy at the moment and couldn't believe it.

Before Su Luo proposed cooperation, he had hinted that the iron mine might not be able to be kept in the future and would be taken away by the imperial court sooner or later, but he would definitely not lose money and would definitely get some benefits.

Shen Cong thought, this benefit is probably also gold and silver, and if you give him a salary or something, it will be insane.

After all, he was a merchant in the first class and was expelled from the genealogy. He must have no weight in Yue Huang's heart. He never thought, never thought that there would be such an opportunity.

Not only did he take [-]% of the shares, he also got the title of Baron.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, although the Shen family has a big business, but if they don't rely on Baixiang, as long as they meet an official, they will be inferior to others.But now, he is a Baron!

Although there is no specific position, this title can already make him stand out from most people.

This day's court meeting began with a chill and ended with joy and sorrow for several families.

Shen Cong was finally left alone by Emperor Yue.

Although Wei Jiuzhong and Wei Jing were worried in their hearts, they must not show it on their faces at this time, and retreated with everyone.

When there were no other officials in the hall, the Emperor Yue asked, "What method did they use to force you to write a confession?"

Shen Cong keenly discovered that Emperor Yue used them.

Shen Cong knelt on the ground and said, "I don't know if Your Majesty knows that I have been expelled from the Shen family, and my family tree has also been removed. Master Yu promised me that as long as the matter is completed, I will not only return to the Shen family, but will also be able to return to the Shen family." Take over the position of the Patriarch of the Shen family! This minister was very excited, but just now he saw Tian Yan in the main hall, and suddenly realized that this minister is not a broad-minded person. Since they don't want me, why should I suffer? What about nostalgia?"

Emperor Yue originally wanted to ask him if he wanted to go back to the Shen family, but when he heard this, he gave up.

Repaying grievances with virtue is the virtue of a gentleman, but how can everyone in the world be like this!After all, Shen Cong was born as a merchant, and he did not make mistakes in matters related to the country and society. This is already commendable, and he can't ask for more.

Moreover, regarding the matter of the Shen family, Emperor Yue has also investigated in the past two days and found out that Mrs. Shen cannot tolerate him. If he really goes back, most of the iron ore in his hands will be taken back. At that time, as his son, Still have to follow, from this point of view, it's better to be alone.

"I know, you step back!"

……

On the carriage outside the palace gate, Bai Zhi was nervously waiting for the news.

She should have been waiting at home, but she really couldn't wait to see Su Luo fall into the dust. For such a big crime, even if she didn't die in the first place, she could only live on in the future.

After today, let's see how she still frightens herself in front of her!
