My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 361 Get rich overnight

  Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi.

  Seeing Zhang Anshi's happy appearance, he couldn't help feeling suspicious.

  He collected himself and looked at Xia Xuan and the others.

  He has an impression of Xia Xuan. This person... seems to be Xia Yuanji's son.

  So Zhu Di's eyes inadvertently swept towards Xia Yuanji's direction.

  Xia Yuanji immediately looked like he had nothing to do with himself, and his eyes fell to other places, as if to say: This has nothing to do with me.

   And seeing many young military officials screaming.

   Everyone's reaction is also different.

  There are people like Zhang Anshi who are so inexplicably happy from ear to ear.

   There are also Yang Rong who have such meaningful faces.

  Zhu Zhanji looked like he had nothing to do with him. This was what Yang Xueshi did, so he still cuddled up to Zhu Di intimately, and his face regained his composure.

  As for that Scholar Yang who was pushed out...

  Yang Pu, as Shao Yin in charge of the Railway Department, was actually very calm.

  He is very clear that these are unlikely to bring any lethality. From the beginning to the end, this matter is the decision of the emperor and Wei Guogong.

  Even if he is now the scapegoat, it will not do any harm except to add more weight to him in the hearts of the prince, grandson, and Wei Guogong.

   Even, if His Majesty is so angry because of this, he will directly decree to dismiss him from his official position, and there will be no harm. At worst, he will return to his hometown to study for a few years, and then re-conquer in the future.

  Zhu Di paced around and said in his mouth: "Qing and others are buying and selling land. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. How can he break his promise and get fat now? Since it is a business, is there a contract?"

  Xia Xuan and the others felt chilled after hearing this, so why don't you talk to us about the law?

   But at the moment, they have no possibility of backing down, Xia Xuan and others had no choice but to say: "Although the contract is signed, it's just...just..."

"Just what?" Zhu Di stared at them, a little angry: "I just feel that I have suffered a loss, and I want to break the contract, so I went to the king to make a fuss! You are all shady ministers, and you have received the grace of the country. An Neng in this way?"

   "Thousands of deaths..."

  Xia Xuan and others hurriedly kowtowed.

Zhu Di was furious and said: "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust, the ancients said that no one can stand without faith. I ordered you to serve the emperor and grandson, and I already have high hopes for you, but you are like this. What do you want? No, isn’t personal faith also gone?”

   "You keep talking about persecution. This scholar Yang is a scholar of Zhan Shifu, and your father and brother are also in the royal class and have high positions. How can he coerce you? What a nonsense and presumptuousness!"

  Zhu Di was furious.

  Although Xia Xuan and others had a plan, they did not expect this result.

   After all, they are young and inexperienced. Now that His Majesty has scolded them all, they are already scared out of their wits.

  When Xia Yuanji, Jin Chun and the others heard this, their hearts also turned cold.

  They didn't expect such a hooligan like Zhu Di.

   Originally, Yang Pu was brought out because he wanted to try his best to preserve the face of the East Palace, and try not to provoke Zhang Anshi as much as possible.

  How could he have imagined that His Majesty actually came up with a fake show and made a fuss about Yang Pu.

  How did Yang Pu persecute you? Why did Yang Pu persecute you?

   This is pretending to be confused!

  However, at this time, you still have nothing to do with him.

  Because His Majesty began to hold the banner of faith, standing on the high ground of morality, killing your own fair trade, and with the guarantee of the contract, it is impossible to refund the money.

  Xia Yuanji and the others couldn't hold back any longer. When they saw Xia Xuan and the others again, they all responded out of fright and shook their heads in their hearts.

   Zhu Di said at this time: "Xia Qing's family..."

  Xia Yuanji hurriedly stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the minister is here."

  Zhu Di pointed at Xia Xuan and said, "Is this your son?"

  Xia Yuanyoshi said: "It's the dog."

  Zhu Di said: "He keeps saying that someone forced him to take his family property. As a father, don't you know about this?"

  Xia Yuanji had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Slightly...knows a thing or two."

  Zhu Di said: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are people who are extorting and blackmailing like this. It is really appalling. What's more, the person who blackmailed is the Minister of the Ministry of Erhu. You are the minister of the country. Since you know it, why don't you play it?"

  Xia Yuanji's heart became cold again.

  Are you still ashamed to hold me accountable? What happened, Your Majesty, don't you know it yourself?

  But, there are some things that cannot be said on the table.

   Regarding this matter, everyone standing here is like a mirror, and everyone knows what happened. But, you just can't say it, otherwise you'd be flipping the table.

  Xia Yuanji hesitated and said: "Chen...Chen..."

Zhu Di said angrily: "Could it be that there is something hidden in it? If so, someone would dare to bully Xia Qing? This must be a shocking case, and even the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs has to be evasive and evasive, which shows how bad it is." How far."

  Xia Yuanji was stunned: "Ah...this..."

  Zhu Di said: "Xia Qing, but it's okay to say, don't worry, I won't add any crime."

  Xia Yuanji said with a wry smile: "Things... I don't understand it very well, it must be because of my messing around with others."

   "Naughty?" Zhu Di said: "It was fine to mess around with people before, but now you are messing around in front of the emperor, why... Is your son still not weaned?"

  Xia Yuanji was taken aback, bowed quickly, and said dejectedly: "The minister is dead."

  Zhu Di was satisfied now, and said to himself...how can the money given out be returned to you?

   Really think that relying on this, you want to take advantage of me?

  At the moment, he took Zhu Zhanji's hand and said, "The emperor's grandson."

   "The grandson is here." Zhu Zhanji looked innocent.

   "What do you think about such a thing? If you are me, how should you deal with it?" Zhu Di said.

  Zhu Zhanji said sincerely: "Grandpa Huang, Duke Xia is the pillar of the country, and he has always done things decently. It was only his son who made a mistake today. How can Grandpa Huang punish him?"

"As for his son Xia Xuan, he is an official of his grandson. He made a mistake because of his lax rule and improper discipline. Therefore, if he committed a crime, then his grandson is also to blame. The emperor Grandpa punishes grandson if he wants to punish him, as for Xia Xuan and others, when grandson is punished, he will go back and discipline him strictly."

   These words are very appropriate.

  Zhu Di was very happy when he heard this, he stroked his beard and laughed and said, "My grandson has the utmost benevolence and the style of Lord Mengchang. If that's the case, then we will do as you say!"

"Xia Qing's family, as well as you... It is an unforgivable crime to offend the royal family like this. I would have punished you well. If it hadn't been for my grandson's bitter admonition, I would never forgive you. Today, I read it on the emperor's face, and I also read Qing and others. First offenders don't care."

  Natsuhara Yoshi: "..."

   Zhu Zhanji said on the sidelines: "Thank you soon."

  Xia Yuanji's lips twitched quickly, but he could only say: "Thank you for your grace."

  Xia Xuan and the others also lowered their heads and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

  Xia Yuanji had a bitter face again, and tried to squeeze out a smile: "I also thank the emperor for his kind words. There is no way to repay the great kindness, but to be reimbursed to the country and die."

  Xia Xuan and the others had no choice but to continue to thank Zhu Zhanji.

  Zhu Zhanjile.

  Zhang Anshi stood aside, dumbfounded.

  Although as an accomplice, Zhang Anshi couldn't help being shocked by this shameless grandpa and grandson.

   After all, Zhang Anshi only scrapes other people's money.

   But his nephew is so shameless that he shaves off other people's money and wants to be thanked.

  It's so scary!

  Yang Rong also glanced at Zhu Zhanji strangely. He was quite shocked by Zhu Zhanji's performance today.

  This His Royal Highness, the grandson of the emperor, is so secretive at such a young age, but he doesn't know who he learned it from.

  Yang Rong secretly glanced at Zhu Di, then at Zhang Anshi.

   Jin Zhong's heart tightened, and then he let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately... I am poor and have no money!

   It can be seen that poverty also has the benefits of being poor, at least there is no such trouble.

   This little episode was resolved satisfactorily, so Zhu Di flicked his sleeves, pulled Zhu Zhanji, and walked slowly into the platform.

  In this platform, there are steam trains waiting to go.

   Afterwards, the people from the Railway Department came up to report.

  Zhu Di nodded one by one. To Zhu Di, these ceremonies are just a formality, all show and no real content.

  Of course, although it is a show, but this is like a sacrifice. If Zhu Di is present, the significance is great.

  This is a great encouragement for those who participated in the railway construction, and it is also a wind direction for the subjects of the world.

  His Majesty is so supportive, then... this railway should be reliable.

   After more than an hour, Zhu Di came to the waiting room, which was empty, and all the ministers waited obediently outside.

   Zhu Di hugged Zhu Zhanji affectionately, but called Zhang Anshi to him.

  In front of outsiders, he naturally smiled at Zhang Anshi, but in private, he lowered his face.

With a sullen face, he scolded: "Don't cheat people out of money anymore! You two, after all, are the emperor's grandson and the Duke of the state. Even if you want to make money, you won't be able to squeeze out people like Xia Yuanji. If things go on like this, he has no money and is in charge of the household department. How can he not be greedy for ink? What is the difference between doing this and selling officials and nobles during the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty?"

  Zhang Anshi only said: "Yes, yes, yes..."

  Zhu Di stared at him and said, "How much money do you owe now?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "There are six million taels of government bonds issued..."

  Zhu Di immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Just for this railway?"

  Zhang Anshi quickly corrected: "Your Majesty, there are many railways, three of which are currently under construction, and two are planned."

   "It costs too much." Zhu Di said with a heartbroken face: "This thing is good, but..."

  He shook his head. After all, he didn't say what he said later, but he touched Zhu Zhanji's head and said: "Tomorrow, the East Palace will reward Xia Xuan and others with some property, one hundred taels per person..."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "I understand what Grandpa Huang means. Grandpa Huang is afraid that they won't be able to eat."

  Zhu Di smiled, and continued: "I heard that they are also in debt now, isn't it?"

  Zhu Zhanji said solemnly: "They have already been given very low interest, and they only pay back a hundred taels of silver every month. Then Xia Xuan borrowed more than 10,000 taels, one hundred taels a month, and only repaid it for ten years."

  Zhu Di: "..."

  To be honest, Zhu Di was momentarily speechless after hearing these words.

  Zhang Anshi said aside: "Your Majesty... I think... there is no need to reward. If it is rewarded, it seems like Donggong has done something wrong."

  Zhu Di stared: "Isn't it?"

   Zhang Anshi had to admire Xia Yuanji at this time.

  Xia Xuan and the others dared to make trouble, it must have been instructed by Xia Yuanji and the others, maybe the trouble was not for money at all.

   Guessing, he also knew that he would not be able to get the money back. The money passed through the hands of the Zhu family, and he still wanted to return it?

  But after making such a fuss, Xia Yuanji managed to figure out Zhu Di's temperament. Your Majesty is feeling guilty now, as long as you grasp this mentality, don't look at Xia Xuan's troubles today, but there will be arrangements in the future.

  Zhang Anshi smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, they didn't suffer a loss when they bought our land."

  Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi and said, "In private, don't say such things. Five hundred taels of silver, do you really think I don't know the price of the land?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "The minister is in Taiping Mansion and has more than 10,000 mu of land. Now...only sold more than 3,000 mu of land..."

  Just as he was talking, Yi Shiha hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, the time has come."

  Zhu Di nodded, took a deep look at Zhang Anshi, shook his head and sighed: "Live your life, put your mind on making money, and less on spending money."

  ...

  After the ceremony to go, Zhu Di didn't stay long.

  Leading all the ministers, they drove back in a mighty way.

   Qixia suddenly recovered.

  As Zhu Di arrived at Daming Gate, all the ministers naturally dispersed, and went back to the government office.

  The military officials of the young army drooped their heads one by one, like eggplants beaten by frost.

   The money was not refunded, and he was reprimanded.

  Your Majesty can decide, and everyone has nothing to do.

  When Xia Xuan was on duty, he came out of the East Palace together with Na Jin Dazhou.

  The two are brothers in need, so they complained all the way if they knew this before, so it was better not to report it in front of the imperial court, now stealing chickens is not enough.

  Jin Dazhou has a lot of money in his family, and he has a lot of land to buy.

  Buying more land means more loans.

At this time, with a bitter face, he said with a gloomy expression: "No matter what, your family only pays back a hundred taels of silver a month, while my family is miserable, one hundred and eighty taels a month, and the family has run out of cash. With my salary and some income from the family, if there is something good or bad in the middle, it will be over."

Xia Xuan said listlessly: "You are worse than me? My father said that the family is in trouble, and taught me to find a way to go to my mother-in-law's house to get some money, but I can't open my mouth. My father is the secretary of the household department anyway, why is he so ignorant? …he can’t get from…”

  The two of you talked to each other, looking frustrated.

  But at this time, someone suddenly greeted them: "You two military masters..."

   But on the side of the road, a man in commoner clothes greeted with a smile.

  Xia Xuan looked up and saw that this person was obviously a merchant.

   Merchants are easy to distinguish. They are limited to wearing clothes of a few colors, and they cannot wear silk, but they have silver. Although they cannot wear silk, they often choose fabrics with excellent texture.

  Xia Xuan didn't bother to pay attention, the dignified Xia family never dealt with merchants.

  But this man excitedly came to the two of them, bowed and said: "You two military masters, aren't you serving in the young army? Haha... I'm so polite."

  Xia Xuan and Jin Dazhou looked at each other, but they were quite vigilant.

  The merchant smiled and said: "I am a merchant from Qixia... surnamed Chen, surnamed Rong..."

  As soon as Xia Xuan heard the word Qixia, Xia Xuan suddenly became furious, and said two words coldly: "Get out."

"Mr. Jun, don't be angry..." The merchant didn't back down immediately, and said with a pleasant smile: "I heard that there are many people on the side of the young army... who bought a lot of land from Qixia and other stations, haha... the news of the little one is blocked. , some rumors may not be very accurate, if there is any mistake, please ask the military master... forgive me."

  Xia Xuan's eyes burst into flames. From their point of view, if this Qixia was added with merchants, then nine out of ten she would be Zhang Anshi's lackey.

  Although everyone scolds Yang Pu, all fools know that behind the scenes of the emperor's grandson is the famous Wei Guogong. That guy has made everyone miserable.

Xia Xuan looked angry, Jin Dazhou was the son of Jin Chun, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and he was a bit more awe-inspiring than the weak Xia Xuan, he shouted: "What land, what Qixia, I don't hear these things, don't get in the way. "

  This businessman named Chen Rong, like brown sugar, refused to give in at all, adhering to the principle of not hitting smiling people with his hands, but he smiled.

  Because he knew that the two in front of him must be members of the young army, and judging by their posture, their status in the young army was probably not low.

   Otherwise, on the ground of the capital, no warrior would dare to be so arrogant on the street.

   After all, the water in the capital is very deep.

  Looks like I found the right person.

  So he continued to smile and said: "Actually, the villain is here to buy... some land."

  Jin Dazhou said with a cold face: "Looking for land, what kind of land?"

   "Of course the place near the station..."

   All of a sudden, Xia Xuan and Jin Dazhou were a little confused.

  The two looked at each other.

  Xia Xuan immediately said: "Do you want to buy?"

  The merchant hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, if the two military masters have it, we might as well have a good talk."

  Xia Xuan said: "There are some."

   "How many are there?" The merchant suddenly became energetic.

  Xia Xuan said: "Not much, only tens of mu, I have tens of mu, he also has tens of mu... But... the price of this land is low, we don't sell it, there is no... thirty taels of silver..."

  Thirty taels of silver...

  The merchant trembled all over.

  Businessman Chen Rong became excited, his face glowed red, and then... his whole blood boiled: "Thirty taels per mu?"

  Thirty taels of silver, to Xia Xuan, is considered a high point of land price.

   You know, ordinary land is nothing more than ten or eight taels.

Chen Rong only felt dizzy, but soon, he calmed down suddenly. He knew very well that some advantages cannot be taken. Those who can serve as military positions in the young army do not have a fuel-efficient lamp, and the families behind them are all Bit height weight.

  You took thirty taels of silver per mu to take advantage today, but tomorrow he will come to realize that it would be no wonder if he didn’t kill you.

  So he took a deep breath, tried his best to calm down and said: "Thirty taels, don't laugh at the two military masters, let's just ask a price for the small one, six hundred taels per mu, is this price... fair?"

  Xia Xuan: "..."

  ………

   There will be more later.
