Chapter 49 The Poor Emperor
Emperor Jiajing sat on the golden futon, his posture holding Yuan Shouyi unchanged. He still closed his eyes and said lightly: "What's important?"< br>
Huang Jin took a deep breath and said, "It's about Prince Yu's sugar shop."
Emperor Jiajing frowned slightly, "Didn't I let you handle it already? What happened?"
>
Huang Jin said quickly: "You deserve to die, you didn't explain the matter clearly. Just now, Meng Chong, the eunuch in charge of Prince Yu's Mansion, came over. He was ordered by Prince Yu to ask your servant to come forward to calm the matter. The servant thought that the emperor had already I asked my slave to do it, so I agreed and the result was."
Huang Jin was about to say that at the critical moment, Emperor Jiajing laughed and said, "Three children will take advantage of the situation and make progress. You continue to say, what will be the result."
Huang Jin said: "The result is that Meng Chong told My slave, as long as I can settle the matter, Prince Yu is willing to give up three-thirds of Yirantang’s profits to my slave.”
Emperor Jiajing couldn’t help laughing when he heard this, “Three sons know it. It’s good to bribe the people around me. It seems that Gao Gong is still useful. He can teach San’er some real skills and does not instill the old master’s benevolence and morality into San’er as an inviolable standard.”
"Since San'er gives you three points of profit, you can take it. My sons can't help but feel frightened if I can't see them. Being closer to you can also make them feel at ease and not think nonsense all day long. What will happen to me?"
Huang Jin said nervously: "The emperor has too much profit, I dare not take it."
Emperor Jiajing smiled and said: "How much is the power of three points? It is estimated to be only a few hundred taels of silver. Didn't you hear San'er say that this Yiran candy is a sacred item brought by Master Zhang from the paradise of paradise, and it must be of extremely high value. San'er also There’s not much to earn.”
Hearing Emperor Jiajing’s calm words, Huang Jin felt like he was going crazy. He couldn’t let anyone talk anymore?
If it was really a profit of a few hundred taels, would Huang Jinfu have to turn around and come back immediately to talk about it?
This is too much to look down on the value of the ancestor of the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies.
Huang Jin took a deep breath and said, "Emperor, the three-cent profit that Prince Yu gave to the slave is not a few hundred taels of silver, but ten thousand taels!"
Emperor Jiajing laughed again, "Look at your potential, it's just ten thousand. How much did you say?!"
Emperor Jiajing broke through the power instantly, and his sitting posture with Yuan Shouyi in his arms was instantly messed up, and he turned around and stared Looking at Huang Jin, he asked, "How much did you say? San'er's profit of three points is ten thousand taels?"
Huang Jin's neck couldn't help but shrink when Emperor Jiajing stared at him like this, "Yes, Emperor, it's enough." There are ten thousand taels, how can this slave dare to take it?”
Emperor Jiajing’s eyes couldn’t help but roll, obviously still shocked by the shocking news of the three-thirds profit of ten thousand taels.
“This little bastard actually tricked me. I’ve given you hundreds of taels of silver in the past half month, and you still haven’t told me the truth?”
Although Emperor Jiajing was scolding Zhu Zaijing, he turned around and laughed happily, "What a great son of mine! As expected of me, he has such ability at such a young age. Three points and ten thousand taels of profit!" ! Okay, okay, that’s great!”
Emperor Jiajing was dancing with excitement. Finally, after he suppressed his emotions, Emperor Jiajing said seriously to Huang Jin: “You must be dealt with harshly! A dog dares to do so! Stealing the owner's things? Is this okay? Go and get the people from Dongchang to give Yan Song a good shake and let him know who can touch and who can't touch him. If he is really old, then get out of here and don't delay me. It’s time!”
Huang Jin quickly replied: “Yes, I accept the order.”
Then Huang Jin asked in a low voice: “Emperor, I still accept Prince Yu’s three points of profit. "
Emperor Jiajing said naturally: "Take it, why don't you take it? Since Saner is filial to me, how can I not accept it?"
Huang Jin was stunned. Wasn't this for him? How come it was for Emperor Jiajing in such a blink of an eye?
Huang Jin didn't dare to ask more, let alone say more.
Huang Jin said: "My slave, please retire."
Emperor Jiajing hummed, "Go."
After watching Huang Jin leave again, Emperor Jiajing could no longer sit still. Can't go down anymore.
He stood up and paced back and forth in the monastery, the excitement on his face never stopping for a moment, and the immortal spirit of the past seemed to have disappeared at this moment. Emperor Jiajing walked to the imperial case and pulled out the budget for building the "Fourth Ring Road" of the capital listed by the Ministry of Industry. "Three million taels of silver, these bullies will spend my money, and none of them can save me any worries." . San'er is still considerate. "
The population of the capital during the Jiajing period had exceeded the city limit planned during the Yongle period, so in order to cope with the increasing population, management efficiency was increased.
In the past two years, Jing Zhaoyin and the Ministry of Industry have also begun to recommend the expansion of the capital city.
That is to build a larger outer city on the basis of the Forbidden City, the Imperial City and the existing city walls to accommodate more people, which is the "Fourth Ring Road".
But how easy is it to expand a city?
The ancient city is not the modern city of the future. In addition to meeting the daily living needs of the people in the city, the ancient city also undertook the important task of defense.
So expanding the city meant that the court had to spend a lot of money to build new defensive walls and dig new moats.
Otherwise, the new expanded urban area will not be able to play a defensive role at all, and will also become a gap for the enemy's attack.
Therefore, the worst thing that Emperor Jiajing did during this period was the expansion planning of the capital city.
Grant it, no money.
If you don’t approve it, you won’t be able to live in it.
This is really a headache.
So sometimes Emperor Jiajing wonders how I became the emperor?
Isn’t it said that the emperor is rich all over the world? Why can't you even squeeze out the money to build the city?
Now that he saw that Zhu Zaijing had made so much money from selling candies, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but become more active. He felt that this should be a good opportunity. As for how to put his son's money into his own pocket, it seemed so natural. Silky and smooth, this made Emperor Jiajing think smart.
You must know that in the original history, Emperor Jiajing's project to expand the capital was an unfinished project. He only built an outer city in the south and ran out of money. The original capital with a square shape turned into a The convex font has to be said to be very distressing.
Huang Jin took Dongchang's fanzi and headed towards Yan's Mansion without stopping.
A mighty group of people suddenly appeared on the streets of the capital, and the people along the way and the officials in the capital couldn't help but be frightened.
Is the emperor going to build a prison again?
Everyone couldn't help but feel nervous, fearing the appearance of such a big prison.
Because once such a big prison happens, there will definitely not be a few people involved in the end, and maybe there will be another river of blood.
Last year in the case of Xia Yanshoufu, it was not just Xia Shoufu who died, but a series of people.
To this day, the smell of blood in the West Market still makes people tremble when they smell it.
Now I see a mighty group of factory guards appearing on Jingshi Street, heading towards Dongcheng where dignitaries gather.
Who will be unlucky this time?
"Dongchang is handling the case, everyone is waiting to retreat!"
The powerful Dongchang Fanzi gathered in front of Yan Song's house and shouted majestically at the people watching the excitement.
Everyone around them was trembling. Has the situation really changed?
