Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 61 Compete with the emperor for profit
However, Xue Youzhi had to pay a corresponding price for having trouble with the family several times in a row.On Emperor Chengqi's desk, there was a pile of memorials that he used as a protective umbrella for unscrupulous merchants by arresting innocent people indiscriminately.Emperor Chengqi knew that the prefect of Jinling cooperated with merchants to organize long-distance races, which earned the court a lot of money.But I don't know what this umbrella means.

"Xu Qing, take a look." He tapped the fold with the tip of his pen.

Xu Ze stepped forward, flipped through every book at random, and then threw them all outside the door.

Emperor Chengqi: "..."

"Total nonsense."

"...Mmm." Emperor Chengqi nodded.He didn't believe it at first, but why is Xu Ze so popular?
Xue Youzhi is not Xu Ze's person.

Zuo Xiang Haizhi, who had been sitting below and was almost drowsy, suddenly opened his eyelids, "Your Majesty, I accidentally heard that many people in the south of the Yangtze River were blatantly digging for mine veins. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't know that I did it half a year ago. The fugitive slave was caught yesterday and was holding this object in his hand. I dare not lie to the emperor, and I only found out that I got it from Taihua Mountain through lynching, and all of it will be sent to the south of the Yangtze River." Hai Zhi held a golden piece in his hand. Give the stone to Changshun.

How could Emperor Chengqi have the time to think about what Xu Ze was thinking.Who doesn't know that Haizhi has been in love with each other for decades, relying on the old and selling the old to fool around, and rarely deliberately targeting anyone or anything.Suddenly saying these words today, it is obvious that some people have forgotten what Dayue's last name is.

Duke Liang's Mansion
The news of the little brothers and sisters in Jinling did not spread widely in the capital, but it miraculously reached the ears of the Gu family.In particular, I heard that they changed their names and surnames. The male was admitted as a scholar, and the female business was very big.After the two left Gu's house, their lives went smoothly.There are people of all moods.

Just because of this news, Gu Changxi and Gu Changyu went back to their natal home at the same time, and asked Gu Zheng and the old lady to explain whether they were quietly supporting Cheng Han and Cheng Fu's siblings behind their backs.Especially Gu Changxi, not long after she got married, she spent only a lot of money. After learning about Gu Changyu's dowry list and the gift list for hiring Zhu Ting, she complained to Gu Zheng.Why are these little girls and concubines able to earn so much from the Gu family.

In the marriage, she took away nearly half of the property of the Duke's Mansion, so it stands to reason that she should be grateful for her father's love.However, she has never been a generous person, and she is not very happy when others drink some of her leftover vegetable soup.

Because in her eyes, the Gu family will belong to her and her brother in the future, and every penny that the Gu family spends is equivalent to paying for her and Gu Yanyun.

The old lady smiled and comforted her: "They are all my younger brothers and sisters, and they will not be your help in the future." She tried to wink at Gu Zheng so that he would not deny it.

Zhu Ting, Gu Changyu, Aunt An, and Aunt Lin who were present all understood what the old lady meant, and were secretly surprised that she had such a face. Today, the Gu family is behind the scenes to help.

Gu Zheng was not as simple as the old lady thought. First of all, they only had news that the two siblings were in Jinling, but they didn't know any more details.Furthermore, the water in the south of the Yangtze River is deep, so how the little brothers and sisters gained a firm foothold in Jinling at such a young age is worth studying in itself.

With his limited memory, this pair of children doesn't like to deal with people, and they don't like to talk too much. If they don't have a good appearance, their sense of existence is probably not as good as Gu Yanyun's housemaid.He didn't think they could have such a great fortune by their own abilities.So not only would he not follow the old lady's wish and admit them, but he would also be careful.

You know, if they did not follow the right path, and the Duke's government rashly recognized them, it would be a huge hidden danger for themselves.

"It is an indisputable fact that their brothers and sisters violated the family rules and were expelled from the family. I only regret that I didn't kill them with my own hands. How could I waste a grain of rice. The accounts in Madam's hands are clear. If you don't believe it, just go and check."

Everyone didn't expect Gu Zheng to veto the old lady's plan in such a righteous way, and they all looked embarrassed, especially Gu Changxi who came back excitedly to ask the teacher for a crime.But this answer made her even more dissatisfied. How could those two unworthy things live so well without relying on the Gu family?
As the old lady got older, she couldn't bear this kind of scene more and more, especially when she was humiliated by her own son just now.So he yelled about having a headache, and asked Madam Wei to help him back to his room to rest, not caring about today's affairs anymore.

"Auntie, do you want to check the accounts?" Zhu Ting asked neither humble nor overbearing.

After the younger brothers and sisters were expelled from the Mujinyuan, the old lady ordered people to count things and put them into the warehouse.Cheng Fu's few pieces of jewelry were also distributed to the two cousins.After Zhu Ting married in, she checked again, and there was indeed no big discrepancy.

Since Gu Changxi got married, it was the first time she was wronged at her natal family, and she was very embarrassed.Turning her face away from Zhu Ting, she wanted to act coquettishly with Gu Zheng who was sitting on the other side, but Gu Zheng didn't look at her.

Earlier, she heard the dowry members talk about Gu Zheng's love for the new wife, but she didn't believe it.Until now, she saw another kind of love in her father's eyes.This made her inexplicably afraid.She couldn't imagine what her daughter's future would be like in the Gu family after this woman took away her father's attention little by little.

Just as Zhu Ting was about to respond to Gu Zheng's gaze, a cup of tea was thrown on her head.

"what……"

"Ma'am, wipe it off..."

The servants were in a hurry.

Gu Zheng stepped forward quickly, grabbed the handkerchief from the nanny and started to do it himself, while frowning and questioning the eldest daughter, "What are you doing?"

Gu Changxi couldn't find a suitable reason, so he said forcefully: "This bitch is disrespectful to me."

Zhu Tingwo sobbed in Gu Zheng's arms, "Where did I disrespect my aunt?"

"That's right, big sister, Madam just asked you if you want to check it out, how could you just pour such hot tea on people indiscriminately." Gu Changyu had already ordered someone to fetch the medicine.

Seeing this, Aunt An urged everyone to send the person back to wash and change clothes, and wait for the doctor to come to see and treat him. The burn is not a trivial matter, even if it is not serious, it will be red, swollen and peeling.Gu Chang Xipo's position happened to be in the middle of the forehead and nose, Zhu Ting was young and newly married, it was time to pay attention to her appearance.Which line is not careful.

These words pierced Gu Zheng's heart bluntly. He brushed aside the maid beside him, and hugged the new wife who was still weeping wronged. Without even looking at Gu Changxi, he strode away from Xiangning Courtyard.

"Father..." Gu Changxi stomped his feet angrily, but it was impossible to chase after him, so he was too embarrassed to stay.She vaguely noticed that the servants around her looked at her strangely, which was a bad feeling.

On the way back to the Marquis of Weiyuan, Gu Changyu kept urging the carriage to hurry up.

"It's rare for the young lady to go back to her mother's house, why don't you stay longer?"

Gu Changyu took a deep breath, and raised a confident smile that seldom appeared, "I want to go back and write a letter to my third sister." There is such a rich girl, as long as she uses it well, she will be Gu Changyu's future support, and she will be present at the banquet in the future. The confidence of the family.

Jinling
Yan Xingsheng is a man who made a fortune in silence, and the two experimental Zhuangzi were transformed by him into almost exactly the same as Cheng Fu's requirements.It just makes people feel fresh and interesting.

Wu Ying stood by the man-made pool not far from the pig breeding area, "What is this for?" Fire prevention?

"Swimming for pigs." Cheng Fu was excited.

Wu Ying and everyone: "???"

Yan Xingsheng explained with a smile: "Miss said that our pigs should be able to climb mountains and water, and it would be better if they can climb trees. In addition, the pig food should also be particular, not too mixed. In this way, the pigs from Lianghexuan will have good meat quality. Better than ordinary farmhouses."

Hearing this, everyone adored Cheng Fu.It turns out that there are so many ways to raise pigs.

After seeing the pig breeding area, they went to the chicken farm again. Cheng Fu grabbed a chick and said to the workers in Zhuangzi: "Be careful of migratory birds, they may infect us with viruses brought from other places. You must remember that immediately after the greenhouse is completed, divide the chickens into small groups and keep them separately. If there is an unprovoked death, the whole nest will not be kept, and it will be burned to ashes.” The incinerator is a farm facility that was completed earlier one.

Cheng Fu saw that the guys on the Zhuangzi were hesitant, and said patiently: "Who knows what kind of disease the chicken that died for no reason is. If you eat it, there will be troubles, how will you explain it to your family? Then again, you are so greedy." Is it? Strict management does not reduce your wages and three meals, what is the matter with those sick chickens you are starving?"

Several people bowed their heads guilty.

The main reason is that they were afraid of being poor when they were young. Since they came to Lianghexuan, they have lived a decent life. A while ago, they got a lot of money that can change their fate. They are still a little unreal, and some concepts have already penetrated into their bones It hasn't turned around in a short time.

"Boss, we dare not, don't worry." The lady is so strict, but it is for their own good.

Wu Ying added, "Not only can you not eat it, but you can't give it to others or other animals."

Yan Xingsheng was rarely in a hurry, "Human life is at stake, human life is at stake."

"Yes, we know."

After the turmoil in their lives, the Cheng brothers and sisters' opinions became polarized.Coupled with the finishing work of the long-distance race, Lianghexuan no longer had frequent contacts with other partners, and was busy with its own business.The business atmosphere in Jinling has returned to what it was before the long-distance race.Lianghexuan's deliberate low-key made these three words gradually less easy to be talked about.

At the beginning of September, on an auspicious day for housewarming, the Cheng brothers and sisters bid farewell to the small courtyard of the Cheng family on Shuimen Street, and moved into the Cheng family's mansion, which was simple in appearance but extravagant in the interior.On this day, all the neighbors on Shuimen Street received a housewarming gift.But because the two brothers and sisters don't like banquets, they just invite a few acquaintances to have lunch in their new home.

Ke Xiang drank a glass of wine and got angry, "Have you heard that the court has arrested many people in Taihua Mountain. The Patriarch of the Zhou family was invited into the yamen by our prefect Xue last night, but he hasn't come out yet. I'm afraid it will be troublesome." Ke Xiang travels all over the world, he doesn't need to listen deliberately, the news will pass into his ears through the mouths of all kinds of people.

The Zhou family is also a big family in Jinling, and now the head of the family has been taken, which shows that it is not a trivial matter.Since Wu Ying left the clan, she has focused on being a law-abiding businessman, fulfilled and at ease, and now she doesn't miss the glory that the big family once brought him.Listening to this now, my mentality is somewhat similar to Ke Xiang's, just watching the fun.

"Why doesn't the Zhou family go to activities?" Wu Ying just said that, and he guessed that the Zhou family should not be active.

"What's there in Mount Taihua?" Cheng Fu blinked curiously.

"There are mineral veins around Taihua Mountain, and the imperial court has covered them for many years." Cheng Han explained to her.

It was only then that Cheng Fu suddenly realized, hehehe twice, "Competing for profit with the emperor...Jiangnan... is amazing, I admire it." Although he had known for a long time that the aristocratic family's extravagant dignity was not only dependent on the ancestral property that was shrinking year by year, but those who were not on the stage It is also the main source of income for many families to maintain their wealthy lives.But she never thought that something would happen so soon.

Privately mining mine veins is a business that loses its head at any time. It is a wise move to close and clean up the hands and tails before being discovered by the court. She also believes that someone escaped this time.And those who can't escape are mostly because of greed and not paying attention to the old Zhao family.
