Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 744 One Million Dollars

  Fang Jifan brought several Xu Jing and others in front of the Wang family's gate.

  Ouyang Zhi had a dull face, expressionless.

  Xu Jing laughed along with him, and was very happy to see his mentor.

  Liu Wenshan is like a transparent person.

Fang Jifan said with a troubled face: "You think that your teacher likes to deal with this Wang Ao, and I have different ways of dealing with him, civil and military, what is there to deal with. If he is not shameless, begging for nothing, he insists on calling me a good nephew, or Forcing me to call him Uncle Shi, and insisting on inviting me to sit at his house every now and then, I'm just lazy to talk to him as a teacher."

Fang Jifan sighed: "But there is nothing I can do for my teacher. He is a heavenly official of the official department. As a teacher, I have to humiliate and beg for help for you guys who are not up to date. Fortunately, Wang Ao is still kind and friendly. I don’t want this picture for my teacher." If you lose your face, there is always some comfort, for a while, all of you don’t talk, and see that the teacher and Wang Ao are talking and laughing happily."

  Xu Jingdao: "The mentor waits for the students, it's really..." His eyes are red.

  Liu Wenshan felt that the guy who didn't live up to expectations seemed to be referring specifically to himself, blushed, lowered his head, and didn't dare to look directly at Fang Jifan.

  Ouyang Zhi was silent for a long time, and said with emotion: "Students have nothing to repay for your kindness."

  Fang Jifan chuckled, and was talking when he saw an official come out angrily.

  He raised his eyes and only glanced at Fang Jifan and the others. Feelings of shame and indignation welled up in his heart. As he spoke, he quickly walked into the sedan chair not far away, got into the sedan chair, and left.

  Fang Jifan was a little confused, who is this person, so arrogant.

   Waiting for Fang Jifan to be dazed, it didn't take long before he saw Wang Ao coming quickly.

  Through the doorway of the middle gate, Fang Jifan saw Wang Aohu making a fuss, and Xu Jing said cheerfully: "Wang Butang came to welcome his teacher in person."

  Fang Jifan said: "Low-key."

  Wang Ao almost walked out of the gate, but suddenly stopped, and then stared at Fang Jifan.

  Fang Jifan laughed, and said from a distance: "Shibo, hello."

  Wang Ao's complexion changed, and his face was ashen. He stared at Fang Jifan with his hands behind his back, and suddenly said a word through his teeth: "Fang Jifan, do you still dare to come?"

  What do you mean by this...

Before Fang Ji could chew on Wang Ao's profound meaning, he saw Wang Ao suddenly raised his arms and waved: "Listen up, this son is not at all with me, catch him and give the old man a hard beat, what's the matter, the old man bear it!"

  The voice fell.

  But from the courtyard wall, many people suddenly poured out. Obviously, they were all Wang Ao's family members, old and young. All armed with sticks, they rushed out together: "Hit!"

   "..."

  Xu Jing was the first to react, and shouted: "Men, let's go!"

  Turn around to pull Fang Jifan, but Fang Jifan has already swished, and he has already run away.

  Liu Wenshan and Xu Jing, walking like flying, chased after Fang Jifan.

Only Ouyang Zhi was still standing there, and then, countless people swarmed past him, and Ouyang Zhi woke up: "Men, wait for me, and chase Fang Jifan with a group of Wang family members who are shouting for beating and killing." .

   This was Fang Jifan's most humiliating day. He was chased for several streets. If he hadn't run fast, he would have been 100% on the street.

  Fang Jifan never expected that Wang Ao was such a ruthless person. Didn’t he just ruin his job?

  Fang Jifan gritted his teeth for a while, thinking about whether to take revenge, and turned around: "Where's Ouyang Zhi?"

  Xu Jing and Liu Wenshan were out of breath, and at this moment they also realized that Senior Brother Ouyang had disappeared.

   "Senior Brother Ouyang, is he in danger?"

Fang Jifan shook his head: "No, that old man Wang Ao didn't really dare to beat people, he just put on a show to show that he is innocent and didn't collude with me. Excessive, but he knows the seriousness, this old man... Ouyang Zhi will be fine, you don't have to worry."

   "..." Xu Jing was in a daze, looking at his wise teacher, he was silent for a long time: "Then why did the teacher run away?"

   "..." Fang Jifan patted his head: "Yes, why am I running away?"

  Fang Jifan shook his head, gritted his teeth, and then sighed.

  Life is really lonely.

  ...

  Kunning Palace.

Empress Zhang burst into tears, holding Zhang Heling, who was as thin as a stick, and tears fell uncontrollably: "You are really useless, my father is alive in heaven, if I know that you are so worthless and messing around like this, I don't know what you will be angry about." Look, look at your appearance, how much suffering you have suffered, and you have left Yanling thousands of miles away, are you acting like a big brother? Yanling is uncertain now, why are you still suffering? , don’t you just have the heart? You used to... always be obedient, but why are you getting bigger and bigger, but people are confused. There are really things in this world that you dare not do..."

   As he spoke, he shook the fragile Zhang Heling: "Say it, say it, say something."

  Zhang Heling's eyes were red: "Sister... I'm so hungry."

  Empress Zhang gritted her teeth and scolded: "How can there be a brother like you? Pigs and dogs are not as good as pigs and dogs. It's nothing more than idleness all day long, but he is even more daring." She winked at the eunuch.

After a while, a table of wine and food was served. It was delicious food. Zhang Heling's eyes were shining, like a mouse that fell into a rice bowl. After eating it, he tore a chicken leg first, chewed it in his mouth, and said: " I’m so hungry, Sister, do you know? On the boat, they ate dried meat and bean sprouts first, and then they had nothing to eat, so they caught mice and ate them. On that boat, even the mice were skinny, **** it, The skin is covered with bones, and I can't eat much meat. When I returned to Beijing, I ate two bowls of porridge, but I was still hungry. Today, when I arrived at Sister's place, I really had meat to eat. I...I..."

  Queen Zhang gritted her teeth and said, "You still want to drink porridge when you come back?"

  Although he hated iron but could not make steel, and wanted to shoot this brother to death, seeing him licking the chicken legs, tears still filled his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel comforted.

  Zhang Heling said vaguely: "I'm poor, I have to save some food, otherwise the Zhang family will be ruined."

  Queen Zhang said: "I earned so much money on this trip to the sea, and the internal money is several million taels. I heard that countless sailors got rich overnight, are they still poor?"

  Zhang Heling looked at Queen Zhang meaningfully: "I didn't take any money, I gave it all to others."

  Queen Zhang didn't believe it.

Zhang Heling doesn't care about other people's understanding, but she looks very happy: "What's the point of only thinking about this little money, sister, I will make a fortune in the future, and even a hundred ships in the future will not be able to hold my gold and silver. , these **** things..." Then, he began to speak vaguely about poor ghosts, fools, and the like.

  Empress Zhang actually doesn’t expect anything else, she just wants her brother to be safe.

  Zhang Heling was in a storm, turned around and was about to run.

  Queen Zhang stopped him: "What are you going for?"

   "I'm going to meet the sailors. They have arrived in Beijing. Sister, let someone pack the food in lotus leaves and send it to my house. I will eat it at night."

   As soon as the smoke disappeared, it disappeared.

  …………

  The sailors from Tianjin Wei have arrived in Xishan one after another.

   Chen Ergou, no, Chen Hu is one of them.

  After settling down his family affairs, he set off for the capital.

All the people who appeared in the capital had completely different temperaments from ordinary people. Although they were sallow and emaciated, they looked extraordinarily energetic. The most frightening thing was that there seemed to be many things hidden in their eyes. No one knows what these sailors and sailors experienced and happened in the vast ocean, but when they landed on land, even if they tried their best to conceal their differences and their past experiences, they could not hide their differences. Ordinary people are different.

  ...

Zhu Houzhao hid in the dark room, carrying a carving knife, whistling, and carefully carving something. Fang Jifan, beside him, was choosing paper made from different recipes. Finally, Fang Jifan chose a kind of recipe. Zhu Houzhao was ingenious and handy. , and finally carved out a plate.

  The engraving block was covered with red ink pad, and it was tapped to cover the paper, both sides. Then, facing the candlelight, Fang Jifan began to look at the details of the engraving on the paper.

   "Is there a secret?" Fang Jifan stared intently.

   "Yes, take a closer look, I have hidden a lot of secret notes, I am not bragging, ordinary people want to forge, and they will definitely not be able to forge..."

  Fang Jifan nodded, very satisfied. His Royal Highness is very capable: "The ink must be specially prepared, and there must be distinctions. There must be distinctions between paper, ink, and engraving."

  Zhu Houzhao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

   "There must be a number, each number must be corresponding, how many are sent, how many numbers... use Arabic numerals."

   "Arab..." Zhu Houzhao said: "Who is Arab, he can still count, come and see in front of me."

   "..." Fang Jifan glanced at Zhu Houzhao with a mentally retarded gaze, and finally decided not to bother with him.

  Sailors have a lot of wealth, but they are grassroots after all, a group of grassroots, even if they have made a fortune now, do you feel at ease with so much gold and silver hidden in their homes?

Therefore, Fang Jifan thought of a way to build a bank in Xishan and issue banknotes. The banknotes correspond to gold and silver. In this way, sailors can withdraw cash at any time when they need cash. With nearly tens of millions of taels of gold and silver As a reserve fund, these released banknotes are naturally full of confidence. In this way, it is convenient for the sailors to carry the banknotes in their hands, and it is easy to store them. Let Xishan Bank keep everything on its behalf.

  On the other hand, for the Zhen Guofu, this is also the first financial attempt. As long as the credit is good, banknotes can be exchanged for gold and silver in full amount at any time, and the credit can be guaranteed.

  In short, it is different from the coquettish JIAN goods of Daming Baochao!
