Chapter 556: No, I can’t stand it anymore!

"That's not right. The Shen family has so much money, but it has been emptied out?" Zhu Sha didn't believe it at all. How could he, the richest man in Daye, not know?

If Shen Wanqian hadn't flattered his father, he would have captured Shen Wanqian long ago.

This old guy is always rich.

"The Shen family does have money, but it's not like you don't know what happened two years ago. Everyone pushed back the wall, and all the Shen family's properties were robbed. Let's take advantage of Yangzhou.

In the early years, at least one-fifth of the Shen family's property belonged to their family. Now, one-tenth is pretty good.

You can ask these yourself.

In one case, the Shen family spent millions of taels of silver helping their father build the city wall.

At that time, the Shen family was almost depleted.

It happened to be a big disaster and the imperial court ransacked the house. I don’t need to tell you about it, right?

Although I later saved the Shen family and the profitable business was still there, it was still not as good as before.

Then I helped the victims, purchased Fengyang local debt, and built roads and bridges.

Including recruiting soldiers, most of it was paid for by myself.

Last year alone, I was completely out of pocket, and that includes my own business.

The most important thing is that I have to make offerings to the palace every year, which you also know.

Of course, to say that it's so tight, it's not like that.

I can still get tens of thousands of taels of silver.

If second brother needs it urgently, I will order someone to help."

Tens of thousands of taels of silver are of no use, he can find a way to get it together.

If you can get three to five million taels in one breath, that's another matter.

However, Zhu Jun's expenses were indeed high. This can be found out. Especially in the palace, where his father and mother lived, the annual tribute was more than 100,000 taels.

I don’t know how much the prince has.

In his opinion, the prince secretly must have taken the lion's share, maybe two to three hundred thousand taels.

Thinking of this, Zhu Hao said hypocritically: "Old Liu, look at what you said, the second brother can still ask for your money? But if you turn around in the future and the second brother asks you to borrow money, you can't be stingy!"

Zhu Jun's chest thumped loudly, "Don't worry, second brother, I can't even borrow money from my brothers. I have money, so I'll just give it to you!"

Only then did Zhu Sha feel satisfied. With this excuse, it would be easier to borrow money in the future. With the Shen family's ability to make money, they would be able to earn hundreds of thousands of taels by the end of the year or next year.

He estimated that by then, he would be almost able to become a vassal, and with the money, he would be able to flex his muscles.

And this cheap maid probably also asked for the recipe for Dingding.

By then, the sky is high enough for birds to fly, the sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and no one can stop him!

Deng was a little anxious, why did this guy still follow his words?

She kept reminding Zhu Jun with her feet.

Zhu Jun might have gotten a little angry, so he took off her shoes and scratched the soles of her feet.

"Ah!" Deng exclaimed.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Zhu Shangbing looked at his mother who was blushing in surprise.

Zhu Sha also frowned, "Why are you yelling after breakfast?"

Deng was strong and calm, "I ate too quickly and got burned by the porridge!"

"Sister-in-law, slow down!" Zhu Jun said with a smile.

Deng looked at the smiling Zhu Jun and thought to herself, this bad guy is still holding her feet.

"Yeah!" Deng responded.

Zhu Jun also let go of his hand and said to himself: "Don't look at anything that's not polite, don't hear anything that's not polite, don't say anything that's not polite!"

But Deng's feet are unexpectedly beautiful.

Zhu Jun cursed himself secretly, is this something good-looking or not?

Deng took back her feet, and her brows were full of spring.

"Mom, I'm full!" Zhu Shangbing burped.

Mrs. Deng wiped his mouth and said, "Go out. You have to tell Uncle Six before you leave!"

Zhu Shangbing walked up to Zhu Jun and said, "Uncle Six, are we going back to Beijing today? Can I ride in a carriage with you?"

"Okay, you go outside and play for a while first!" Zhu Jun touched his head.

Zhu Sha on the side was disgusted again.

Looking at Zhu Jun and the others, they seemed like a family, and he seemed like an outsider.

He simply put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm full too!"

But Mrs. Deng was silent and ate very slowly.

Seeing that she had no intention of leaving, Zhu Sha did not urge her. Instead, he glanced at her and waved to Zhu Shangbing, "Son, follow dad!"

Zhu Shangbing didn't think much and left with his father.

As soon as they left, Mrs. Deng breathed a sigh of relief, then gave Zhu Jun a beautiful look, "You are so courageous!"

"You are brave!" Zhu Jun said with a half-smile.

"Humph, that doesn't remind you not to be fooled by him. It's better for you to join in stupidly, and you'll have a lot of money, right?" Deng said in a slightly coquettish tone: "If you can't spend all the money, give it to me.

I have some money to spend!"

"Okay!" Zhu Jun nodded, "I will give you three thousand taels of silver then!"

Mrs. Deng was overjoyed, "Are you really willing to give up?"

"It's a complete show!" Zhu Jun said with a smile.

Only then did Mrs. Deng react and spat at him, "I thought you really planned to raise me!"

"Don't dare!" Zhu Jun shook his head repeatedly, "Go out as soon as you are full, so as not to..."

"The slower I eat, the better, so he won't doubt me!" Deng smiled and then snorted, "Give me my shoes back!"

After saying that, she handed her feet over and asked Zhu Jun to put on shoes for her.

Zhu Jun was motionless, this was impossible.

Seeing that Zhu Jun was indifferent.

Deng sighed quietly. This man seemed stupid, but he was smarter than anyone else. He estimated that even if he couldn't finish it, he could still turn Zhu Shazhi around.

Everyone underestimated him!

However, this is fine. The smarter and more powerful Zhu Jun is, the safer he will be.

As long as he can protect himself and his children, what if he surrenders to him?

"Uncle, sister-in-law, please!" Deng actually ducked under the table, then looked up at Zhu Jun eagerly.

Zhu Jun was stunned.

This woman is simply deadly.

Compared with the methods of seducing people, the women in her family are several levels behind her.

He followed the fair jade neck down and felt immediately embarrassed.

Deng didn't seem to notice, but became more and more bold.

Zhu Jun hurriedly put the shoes on the table, stood up, and said, "Take it yourself!"

Seeing Zhu Jun run away, Deng couldn't help but laugh, "He has a thief's heart but not his courage!"

She held the shoes and raised the corners of her mouth slightly. Although she felt despicable, so what?

Don’t women deserve to live?

However, if you want to win Zhu Jun, there is still one biggest problem, and that is Guanyin Nu.

She knew that Zhu Jun avoided her not only because she was his former sister-in-law, but also because she was a Guanyin slave.

Zhu Jun is known to love his women, so as long as Zhu Jun secretly accepts him, he is not afraid of him leaving her.

So next, if you ask for forgiveness from Guanyin Nu, only if Guanyin Nu forgives you can you go one step further.
