I Am the Grandson of the Second Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Earning 100 Million Taels at the Beginn

"Why are you back, you brat! Is your injury better?"

Jinling, Imperial Palace Shangshufang.

Zhu Pangpang was still approving the memorial when he suddenly heard footsteps outside. He looked up and saw several guards walking in carrying a soft couch.Half lying on it was a person smiling and looking at him, it was his unlucky son.

Zhu Pangpang was also very excited to see his son whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

When he heard that his son was seriously injured, he was also very worried, and wanted to go to Beiping to see his son for the first time.

But as the prince of a country, the old man is not at home, and he has to bear the burden of the whole country. If he goes to Beiping, there will be chaos if there is no one in Jinling.

"If I don't come back, you are sure that you can suppress the chaos that will start in a few days!"

Zhu Zhangui, who was helped down by several guards and his father, laughed and teased.

"I can't help this little thing, are you doubting your father's ability, or doubting your father's ability!"

Zhu Zhangui laughed, "Can I even doubt it?"

"You stinky boy."

"By the way, you're back. Who did you hand over to the north side? I'm afraid Xia Yuanji won't be able to suppress those people!"

Thinking of what his son was going to do when he came back, Zhu Pangpang was a little worried that the people left behind by his son might not be able to hold him back.

"I asked Ji Gang to go. There are some young people in the north. Although it is difficult to deal with, a Jinyiwei commander is enough."

"The main force of our imperial court is still in the south. If I don't come back to shake the field in person, I'm afraid you will be bored to death!"

Zhu Pangpang nodded in agreement.

What would happen next, he knew very well in his heart that many of the parents of the second generation were loyal to him.

If he was the one to do it, those second-generation parents would probably come over to bother him every day.

"Your uncle, how are you going to deal with it? After all, he is the leader of this matter. If you don't handle it well, I'm afraid the people below will make a fuss!"

Zhu Zhangui smiled mysteriously at his father when he heard the words.

"Don't worry, Uncle, I will make arrangements and definitely satisfy him!"

The morning of the first day of October.

Zhang Kejian walked out of the tent in the yard, looked at the rising sun in the east, ignored the ruins around him, and stretched himself refreshedly.

I don't know what happened these few days, it seems like his house has been hit by an earthquake.

Either the east house collapsed, or the west house caught fire. In just a few days, apart from the yard reserved for my sister, only the hut and kitchen remained intact.

Zhang Kejian didn't dare to live in the yard reserved for his sister, so he and his family set up a tent in the yard.

People complain once or twice when they are unlucky, but it is normal for Zhang Kejian to be unlucky.

If one day is not unlucky, maybe he is not used to it.

"Brother Zhang...Brother Zhang...have you gotten up, hurry up, it's time, let's read the imperial edict!"

The imperial edict is the way the emperor's court announces government orders and promulgates the court's policies to benefit the people.

Under normal circumstances, it is published by the imperial court, and then distributed to various prefectures and counties, and posted on the conspicuous notice board of the county government. There are special scribes or officials to explain the imperial edicts and policies to the people. …

In order to determine the day when the imperial court will take back the treasure, Zhang Kejian has been running to the palace every day for the past few days, sticking to Zhu Pangpang like a dog skin plaster.

Zhu Pangpang shook his head repeatedly at the beginning, not knowing what to say, but later he was so entangled that he couldn't help it, so he told him that the imperial court would announce the imperial edict on the first day of October.

As for the content to be announced, Zhu Pangpang was scared away by saying that the court secrets should not be asked indiscriminately, and if he dared to ask indiscriminately, his head would be chopped off.

That is to say, Zhang Kejian is still needed, otherwise Zhu Pangpang really wants to send him to the Jinyiwei to enjoy this little brother-in-law's appearance as a jerk these days.

"I'm coming!"

With the help of his wife and concubines, Zhang Kejian put on his best clothes, washed himself up, and walked out of the half-collapsed hole in the wall.

As for the gate, well, it collapsed last night and hasn't had time to clean it.

Nearly a hundred nobles surrounded Zhang Kejian in a lively and happy crowd, and walked towards the notice board at the entrance of the palace.

They will not wait at the gate of the county government office.

That's where the untouchables wait, and these noble children will not stay with those dirty untouchables and tarnish their identities.

Regarding the arrival of this group of people, the guards guarding the palace pretended not to see them, and silently stuck to their posts.

It has already been explained above, as long as these second generations don't make loud noises or enter the imperial gate without permission, let them do as they please.

Just show kindness and let them enjoy the warm sunshine outside for a while longer.

The second generations came to the notice board and saw that the edict had not been posted yet. Although they were as anxious as a cat scratching, they still pretended to be calm.

Time gradually passed, and the sun was rising in a blink of an eye.

Just when the second generation couldn't keep their clothes on, a group of guards in Jinyi strode out from the palace with swords.

The leader of a hundred households, holding an imperial list in both hands, strode forward with a serious expression at the front of the line.

"I'm coming…"

Seeing the imperial list, some guys who were not good at nourishing energy directly broke their kung fu, and shouted excitedly.

"Shut up, you idiot, making noise outside the palace, you want to be punished!"

Those who understood the rules quickly glared at those who shouted and reprimanded them.

Those guys immediately covered their mouths and nodded embarrassingly.

The Jinyiwei Baihu who came did not look at the people present. After their subordinates surrounded the notice board, they strode forward and posted the edict issued by the imperial court on it.

Looking at the edict being posted, the second generations craned their necks and widened their eyes, trying to see the contents clearly.

However, due to the presence of Jin Yiwei in front of them, and their indulgence all the year round, they couldn't read the words clearly at a distance of five or six meters.

They wanted to squeeze forward to have a look, but the cold-faced Jin Yiwei standing in front of them made them fearful.

Others are afraid of Jinyiwei, but Zhang Kejian is not.

He is the prince's brother-in-law, the prince's concubine's younger brother, and the emperor's grandson's uncle, but his background is tough.

Besides, he and Jin Yiwei are also considered relatives.

His nephew married the niece of Jin Yiwei's commander, so he and Ji Gang are still brothers.

"Come on, little brother, let me go and have a look!" He reached out and patted Jin Yiwei who was standing in front of him. …

The Jin Yiwei didn't stop him, and stepped aside to get out of the way.

When working as an errand in the capital, it doesn't matter if one's ability is strong or weak, but one must have a good eye for tricks, otherwise it will be very difficult to get ahead.

Here in the capital, there are big figures everywhere, and throwing down a brick at random can knock down a whole bunch of court officials.

Any young man brought here may be the nephew of a high official.

Besides, he also knew Zhang Kejian, and he was the toughest person in the Ming Dynasty's backstage. Except for the emperor, as long as Zhang Kejian did not commit rebellion, everyone would give him a little favor.

Therefore, in this case of not violating the rules, it is okay to give the other party a little privilege.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Kejian is so unlucky to be able to get along so well. Apart from his strong background, his handling of people is also a plus.

Even if the other party is just a small Jin Yiwei, he will greet him politely and thank him.

That is to say, this guy is really unlucky, otherwise, with his tact, he is definitely a good hand in business.

"Stop, you are not allowed to go in!"

Seeing that Zhang Kejian had entered, the other second generations also wanted to slip in through the gap.

It's a pity that the guards in Jinyi gave Zhang Kejian face, but they didn't necessarily give them face, so they were stopped directly with cold faces.

A group of guys who wanted to sneak in, seeing that this little Jin Yiwei didn't show face, although they were very upset, they had no choice but to retreat.

Jin Yiwei and the others couldn't afford to offend them.

Although as their fathers, they are not afraid of this little Jinyiwei, but they can't stand him cheating on you behind their backs.

How many officials have clean buttocks?
If they are caught by others, and all the scandals of the parents in the family are revealed, not only the old guys in the family will be sacked, but they will also be imprisoned.

At that time, let alone rich and beautiful women, it is hard to say whether they can save a dog's life.

Zhang Kejian, who was close to the notice board, glanced at the friends who were blocked by Jin Yiwei, and a sense of pride was born in his heart.

What is face?This is called face.

What is status?This is called status.

Although he Zhang Kejian is an unlucky guy, but he Zhang Kejian will be reincarnated!

The brother-in-law is the crown prince, the elder sister is the princess concubine, and the nephew is the grandson of the emperor. This status, this position, this luck, uh... luck is not mentioned.

If you didn't do something important to save the world in your previous life, you wouldn't even think about being reincarnated into this family as a man, or reincarnated as a dog at home, you'd have to wait in line by lottery.

With his chin raised slightly, Zhang Kejian, who was proud of himself, came to the side of the notice with three steps, shaking the folding fan of Erotic Palace.

"Brother, hard work!"

After greeting Baihu of Jinyiwei who were posting the notice, Zhang Kejian slightly raised his head to look at the half-posted notice.

This notice has a lot of words, and they are all written in the vernacular.

This is the tradition of the old Zhu family.

In order to prevent the officials below from interpreting the policies of the imperial court indiscriminately and fooling the people in the name of the imperial court.

So Lao Zhu had a big brain hole, and wrote all the notices announced to the people of the world in vernacular.

In this way, not only the illiterate ordinary people can understand it, but also officials cannot write articles in it. …

This notice is said to be an announcement of the imperial court's policy, but it is actually more like a review.

At the beginning, I talked about Lao Zhu's good intentions in publishing the treasure banknotes, and then said that because of the negligence of the economy, the imperial court printed recklessly when they lacked money, which caused the collapse of the economy, and made the people of the world bear the consequences.

For this, His Majesty today expressed deep apology on behalf of the Zhu family, and made a promise that this phenomenon will never happen again in the future.

The Zhu family must resolutely stabilize the court's economy and ensure that the people of Ming Dynasty will not be implicated by the court's mistakes in the future.

Immediately afterwards, I said that the new official currency of Ming Dynasty will be released next year, and explained that the new currency will be linked to gold and silver.

For every currency issued, the imperial court would own the reserve gold and silver of those currencies.

Zhang Kejian glanced at all the above contents.

How the imperial court explained that it has nothing to do with him what currency is issued, he just wants to know what ratio the imperial court is willing to use in exchange for the original treasure banknotes.

In the end he finally found what he was looking for.

The last paragraph of the tell is written like this.

Due to the mistakes of the court, the people of Ming Dynasty suffered losses.In order to make up for the people all over the world, the imperial court decided to use gold, silver and copper coins to take back the issued banknotes.

Due to the different market prices in various places, the imperial court decided to exchange the ratio of five qian silver for the banknotes issued by the Ming court after careful consideration.

This ratio is the result of Zhu Zhangui's deliberation and the people in the world can accept it.

In fact, the officials under him also proposed to reduce this ratio even further.

After all, the market price is so low, and the court uses this ratio to exchange for precious banknotes, which is no different from being taken advantage of.

In this regard, Zhu Zhangui directly reprimanded him.

The mistakes of the court made the people pay the bill. What is the use of a dynasty that only knows how to suck the people's blood and eat the people's flesh?

Zhu Zhangui was even strict on the spot.

Even if the entire Ming royal family eats bran and swallow vegetables, they must make up for this money.

This is the wrong thing that Lao Zhu's family did. Now that they have done it, they must have the courage to bear it. Although money is very important, but if they lose the hearts of the people, it is useless to ask for money.

Once the court loses popular support, there will be endless turmoil, and the court will have to spend more money to deal with these turmoil.

It's fine if it can be settled, but if not, the entire dynasty will collapse.

Zhu Zhangui's reprimand silenced the officials who dealt with the matter.

Once again, they saw in Zhu Zhangui that cruel and tyrannical old Zhu who was extremely kind to the people.

They understand in their hearts.

Zhu Zhangui will become the emperor in the future, and he will definitely be a very good emperor to the people.

Because Zhu Zhangui has the people all over the world in his heart, he is always concerned about whether they suffer, whether they are bullied, whether they are fed and clothed.

But for officials and major families, such an emperor is not necessarily a good emperor.

"Hahaha, get rich, get rich!"

Seeing the recovery price set by the imperial court, Zhang Kejian couldn't hold his breath all of a sudden, and laughed loudly with his hands on his hips and his head raised.

The second generations who were anxiously waiting outside Jinyiwei shook their fists hard when they saw Zhang Kejian's snot bubbles coming out of his nose.

"Brother Zhang, what is the price?" You asked loudly, worried. …

It's a pity that Zhang Kejian is in ecstasy now, and he can't hear his shout at all, and the people outside are scratching their ears and cheeks in anxiety.

Later, Jinyiwei Baihu, who was still standing next to Zhang Kejian, coughed a few times, reminding Zhang Kejian to check, and Zhang Kejian came back to his senses.

Wiping the snot bubbles from Le's nose, Zhang Kejian pointed out two fingers to the second generation who were looking forward to him.

"2:1, two coins for one tael of silver!"

"Oh ho ho ho..."

In an instant, the second generations turned into apes, not caring that they were beside the palace, jumping and screaming excitedly.

Jin Yiwei, who had finished posting the notice, stepped aside, and the group of people rushed forward excitedly, seeing the sentence of the imperial court's exchange ratio for treasure notes, their whole body twitched with excitement.

"Brothers, let's get rich!"

A guy who invested a little less than Zhang Kejian roared excitedly, and then roared loudly:
"Tonight, the largest Tingxiang Pavilion in the capital, I will reserve the venue for you. You can choose whichever you want, and you can play however you want. As many as you want, I will order a few for you!"

"Oh ho ho ho..."

The second generations were beating their chests excitedly, and then regardless of looking at them as if they were idiots, Jin Yiwei, with their shoulders crossed and their backs on their faces excitedly singing silver tunes, and regardless of the fact that it was early in the morning, they went side by side to Tingxiang Pavilion .

After these guys left, the palace gate became quiet again.

A team of brocade guards came out carrying a soft sedan chair.

Zhu Zhangui came to the side of the notice, glanced at the direction where wolves were still howling faintly in the distance, and asked the hundred households of Jinyiwei who were saluting respectfully.

"Where are they going?"

"Back to Your Highness, it's Tingxiang Pavilion!"

Zhu Zhangui nodded slightly.

He looked at the location of Tingxiang Pavilion.

"My dear uncle, for the sake of helping me so much, I'll ask someone to come late for a while, so you can enjoy it again!"

The door of Tingxiang Pavilion, which had just closed for business, was kicked open, and soon there was the sound of drums from afar, women's silver bell laughter and men's laughter.

The notice issued by the imperial court was announced by the whole country on the same day.

As early as early September, this edict had already been formulated.

Afterwards, Jin Yiwei was sent to all counties across the country, and under the supervision of banks, chambers of commerce, and local officials, they were uniformly posted on the first day of October.

Most of the common people behaved very mediocrely when they got the news.

The reason for this is that they themselves have no money.

Even if there are precious banknotes, in order to prevent depreciation, they will be exchanged for money or items as soon as possible, and they will not be kept in their hands for long.

Although the imperial court's policy is good, it doesn't mean much to them.

Even if there is a little stock, it was sold to those greedy guys a few days ago.

Those who are really happy are the small and middle classes, who are the main members of the banknote holders.

The big households above didn't respond much to this. Out of distrust of the imperial court's money, they would spend it as soon as they got it, just like the people at the bottom.

What they really store in their homes are gold and silver items, which are the hard currency that preserves value.

Apart from the joy of the small and middle class, there is another group of people who are also very happy.

That's the guys who are receiving the news and want to take the opportunity to send a fortune. …

Some made a small investment, and some, like Zhang Kejian and others, invested all their wealth in it.

Now that the imperial court announced the purchase price, those small investors, while happy, regretted that they didn't make up their minds to increase their investment.

And those who put all their wealth into it shouted excitedly, people who didn't know thought they had passed the Juren exam.

They are really, really hard.

The family members didn't understand, their parents scolded and reprimanded them, and the neighbors ridiculed them, all thought they were fools.

When others think about it, how could the imperial court be so kind and pay a high price to take back useless waste paper? Isn't this a brain damage!
Every night, they looked at the piles of useless treasures, praying in their hearts to God, to let themselves bet on the treasure this time.

Now that God favored them, they finally turned around.

Those who used to look down on them, laughed at them, ridiculed them.Now the eyes suddenly changed, looking at them, from the sneering eyes at the idiot at the beginning, to looking at the god of business.

Even those neighbors who used to ridicule them have already licked a dog's face at this time, and came up to flatter them.

But they dismissed it, just hummed lightly, then turned and left with three steps.

Yesterday's me you love to ignore, today's me makes you unattainable.

30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, I turned around this time, and I want to get all my lost dignity back.

Yes, to get back all that was lost, and to intensify it.

That damned yellow-faced woman actually taunted me when I needed comfort the most, and kicked me out of the room, so that I could only sleep with my maid in my arms in the cold night.

No one can bear such a great humiliation.

Humph.

Yesterday's cause today's fruit!

My net worth today, Er Huanglian Po is no longer worthy of it.

Don't blame me for being cruel, I am striding forward, but you are still standing still, you and I are not in the same family now, we are no longer from the same world.
