Chapter 317: The Tiger Father Has No Dogs(1/2)
"Your Majesty, you don't know what you are like?"
Xie Xinjie "destroys his family and relieves difficulties" for the country, and does not have a salary and serves the court. This is well known.
When facing such a minister, who can blame what?
"Old Xie, I don't mean to blame you. I'm just curious. How long has the wealth been spent? Will you meet a female businessman?"
As we all know, when making money, businessmen are accustomed to meeting people to prepare dishes.
If the court moves, if they take a scheming, their purchasing power will be greatly reduced.
Xie Xinjie said embarrassedly: "Master, this matter is also blamed by the old minister.
That day, the Xue family and Liu also handed over the cash and property to the old minister, and the old minister was extremely excited.
But when I got to my hands, the old minister found that the Xue family had many industries that were very profitable. If they killed the chicken and retrieved eggs, they would get cash, but they would undoubtedly benefit even more if they continued to operate.
Also, because it is valuable, the merchants who want to buy cannot afford a lot of money for a while, so the old ministers took the initiative to keep these industries first and take action slowly to solve the weakness of our court's treasury.
Please forgive me for your sins.”
Even fools can understand this truth.
Shui Zheng also knew that even if Jie Xinjie had thought about it, he would never dare to ask the court to suffer a loss.
"Old Master Jie, what is the crime of thinking about it? But now, this flood suddenly comes, what can I do?"
Dai Quan suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the old minister has a suggestion, I don't know whether to say it or not!?"
Shui Zheng smiled knowingly: "Tell me!"
"Your Majesty, no one in the entire Zhou Dynasty can surpass you. I think Your Majesty should be kind to you."
Xie Xinjie's face changed and he quickly folded his voice: "No, no! Your Majesty, the old minister's family is now harmonious, enough food and no need to be rewarded."
Shui Zheng pretended to be angry and said, "Old Jie, I know your character. You have great efforts for the Great Zhou Dynasty. If I don't reward you, then wouldn't I be rewarding and punishing unknown people? Dai Quan, what do you think I should reward Jie Shangshu?"
"Your Majesty, Lord Jie is now in his sixties, and he is honest. I think your Majesty might as well take those untreated industries..."
Jie Xinjie secretly hated that the old eunuch and the emperor were waiting for him here!
His old legs trembled and he knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the old minister said honestly and did not dare to have any selfishness. If your Majesty had to do this, the old minister could only resign."
In addition to cash banking, Xue’s family’s industries also have cash.
The remaining value is about 800,000 taels of silver. If you reward yourself, then the emperor's meaning is not clear?
That is to let my wife spit out the wealth she had swallowed over the years. Although it changed from gray to white, how could the two old guys have the intention to do business?
Shui Zheng's face turned cold, what else should he say?
Xie Xinjie hurriedly cried: "Your Majesty, the old minister has been poor for generations, and has received the wise eyes of the emperor and worked in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so he dared not slacken at all.
Since becoming the Minister of Revenue, I feel that the treasury is difficult and ask for a salary.
All the family affairs should be managed by scoundrels. Now... I am a seven-foot man, I actually want... the wealth of my wife, the old minister... the old minister... the old minister... the woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w
At the end of his speech, Jie Xinjie burst into tears.
Shui Zheng and Dai looked at each other in full view. If they didn't know that this old man was frugal all day long, they would probably really think this guy was a beggar.
Xie Xinjie cried for a while and stopped.
He knew that if he dragged on, the pot would still have to be swung to him.
"Your Majesty, Yangzhou is different from other prefectures. It is rich. The old minister is willing to go there in person to raise funds."
"this……"
Shui Zheng was a little hesitant. He was the Minister of Revenue. If he went to Yangzhou, what else would happen?
Bah bah bah bah bah!
There was something wrong, Shui Zheng quickly interrupted his thoughts.
"Old Learn, you don't have to go to Yangzhou. I will arrange for someone to clean up, since you are determined to refuse
, I will not be this evil person. For nothing, you can take action on those industries as soon as possible! Marshal Wang’s military expenditure cannot be delayed anymore!"
Xie Xinjie quickly wiped his cold sweat.
"Your Majesty, I recommend one person and I will definitely complete the important task of disaster relief."
"oh?"
Shui Zheng was interested: "Who is it?"
"Jia Zheng!"
"Jia Zheng?"
Shui Zheng said suspiciously: "Jia Zheng is just a traitor in the government's official position, his thinking is rigid and he doesn't know how to make adjustments. How can he provide disaster relief?"
Xie Xinjie smiled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't know anything. The Jia family suddenly had many changes. The Ningguo Mansion was dead, and Jia Zheng's only son, who was born with jade, was nowhere to be seen.
The most important thing is that his eldest daughter Jia Yuanchun should have returned to the palace, but was kidnapped. If she did not commit crimes and made meritorious service, wouldn’t it be a great crime?”
"Um..."
When Shui Zheng heard this, he pondered for a long time and agreed.
Of course he knew who had kidnapped Jia Yuanchun and where he was now.
But he was not very interested in women at all. These things that seemed extremely important to the parties involved were like clouds in his eyes.
"Oh, it's a pity for those silver."
Shui Zheng sighed: "When I follow my beloved minister's request, I plan to go to Yangzhou to provide disaster relief.
Lao Jie, you will be able to help you as soon as you respond to the logistics. The situation in Yangzhou is complicated, otherwise Jia Zheng will be unlucky and talented, and it will be difficult to achieve success."
"Abide by the order!"
During this period of time, Rongguo Mansion really responded to the old saying that blessings are unparalleled and misfortunes never come in singularly.
Before Jia Zhen died, Jia Baoyu disappeared, and many of the young lady Yiying was taken away, and no one knew about her life or death.
Jia Zheng inquired from many sources, but there was no clue.
Waiting for the emperor to make decisions for him would be a flirting for the blind man, and it would be useless to wait for the blind man.
Grandmother Jia was also ill in a series of blows.
Today's Rongguo Mansion is no longer as lively as it used to be. It is also desolate and desolate during the day, and is full of ghost energy.
No one cares about the big things in his family except that they have become the laughing stock of some people.
Fortunately, during dinner in the evening, Mrs. Wang said that her brother was about to come back, which was a reassurance for Jia Zheng.
It’s dark and windy at night, and you can’t sleep.
Jia Zheng tossed and turned, thinking about how the Rongguo Mansion had reached this point. Is it really as the outside world said, because the yin is strong and the yang is weak and the long and the young are disorderly?
"Squeak!"
The door opened, and before the fifth day of the day, a servant said anxiously: "Master Zheng, wake up."
"Acai, what's the matter!"
Jia Zheng had not yet closed his eyes and was not sleepy at this time.
The servant shouted and immediately stood up, even startled the servant.
"No, Master Zheng! The father-in-law in the palace brought people into the mansion!"
"What?"
Jia Zheng was suspicious, was it because of Yuanchun?
"What's going on, please explain it clearly!"
"Yes, lord! Lai Fu and I were on the night, and a group of fierce and evil soldiers smashed the door open. The leading father-in-law said that I would like to invite you quickly, saying that he wanted to announce the order!"
"Opinion?"
Jia Zheng touched his beard: "How did you know that it was a disaster?"
"Oh, Master, I've been here for so many years, and I've never heard of the preaching of people in the middle of the night. Master, please think about the best solution!"
Jia Zheng didn’t understand, did they still understand?
When people come in the middle of the night, where is there any good things?
I'm afraid that the housekeeping service is not going to be removed?
No, I have to report to the old lady immediately!...
Jia Zheng didn't know the servant's mental activities, but he was calm in his heart: "It's a blessing or not a disaster, it's a disaster. Now that I've encountered it, I'll go and see it. You go down."
Knowing that he wanted to accept the order, Jia Zheng did not dare to neglect it. He washed it carefully and then went to accept the order without any inappropriateness.
"What? Your Majesty wants me to go
Yangzhou disaster relief?"
