Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 429: The false friendship between father-in-law and son-in-law (please subscribe!!)
Oh shit!

It really comes to whatever you want.

This Lao Zhu is really petty, but after holding it in for so long, this Lao Zhu is probably going to be exhausted.

It would be nice to meet.

Ouyang Lun thought for a moment, then nodded, "Let's go, let's go see His Majesty the Emperor."

Um! ?

Seeing that Ouyang Lun agreed so readily this time, Wang Zhong was stunned for a moment.

You must know that every time Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see Ouyang Lun, he always asked him to call Ouyang Lun, and every time Ouyang Lun would come up with various excuses not to see Zhu Yuanzhang, so every time Wang Zhong had to fight with Ouyang Lun in a battle of wits and courage. Just fine.

So Ouyang Lun was so cheerful today, which made Wang Zhong a little confused.

"Eunuch Wang, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"

Ouyang Lun stood up slowly, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the outside of the clan's mansion.

Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, was walking back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, holding a thick stack of memorials in his hand, with a dissatisfied look on his face, "What on earth does Ouyang Lun want to do! Ah!"

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"This matter is settled. If I want to enjoy it now, if I delay it, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you and me to explain to His Majesty!" Ouyang Lun said with a smile.

"The military expenses for the Northern Expedition can be paid out of internal funds, but what about the money you will spend to build the palace, buy a car and buy a 055 drive in the future?" Zhu Biao shook his head again, "No, if brother-in-law Ouyang is gone, the red flag carriage and 055 drive will probably become A swan song that will never be produced again.”

"Thank you, Prince Consort." Wang Zhong felt a little better after hearing Ouyang Lun's words.

"Um, am I really the kind of person who is difficult to deal with?" Ouyang Lun said in surprise.

"This" Zhu Yuanzhang's momentum suddenly waned by half, but he still said harshly: "Houses, cars, 055 drives, these are all things that we enjoy outside of ourselves. We don't need them. If this guy Ouyang Lun does anything random, we will still kill him." he!"

"Ok!"

"Don't we have a port in Ming Dynasty? Wouldn't it be better to use this money to dredge rivers and repair the original docks and ports?"

"It's okay." Wang Zhong shook his head, "In that case, let's go, Prince Consort. Are His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince waiting?"

"Your Majesty, please be happy!" Ouyang Lun patted Wang Zhong on the shoulder, "It's not polite to come back but not return. If you give me such a big gift, I will definitely return the gift. I will let Zhou Bao choose from my private treasure house later. Several gifts were delivered to the prince’s residence.”

"Father, I have recently read the files of the Ministry of Household Affairs. With the putting into use of the Hong Kong Village Trade Zone, it is expected to attract foreign businessmen to invest up to 100 million taels, and earn 50 million taels of silver from exporting abroad. And this is just This year, it is expected to maintain a high growth rate of 10% every year in the future," Zhu Biao said slowly.

"Yeah, let's go, let's go now!"

"Prince-in-law, let's not waste any more time. Your Majesty and His Royal Highness are both waiting."

"Ahem, the Za family will not betray His Majesty. Of course, I would like to thank the Prince Consort for his appreciation."

When I arrived outside the clan's mansion, I found a group of people standing at the gate, including an imperial physician carrying a medicine box, a fair-skinned and beautiful woman, an actor in costume, and a tailor holding a ruler. They also had good wine, good food, and rare treasures. A lot of exotic treasures were carried
"Eunuch Wang, did you bring this all?" Ouyang Lun also saw such a big battle for the first time.

"The military expenditure for the Northern Expedition is only 10 million. We can just use it from our own funds." Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.

"What, so many? Why didn't you tell us earlier?!" Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised.

"Ahem, the prince-in-law is the most intelligent person in the world. If we want to satisfy the prince-in-law, the Za family must be fully prepared." Wang Zhong said helplessly.

"My son... I just saw this." Zhu Biao reluctantly picked up a memorial and said.

When Zhu Biao heard Zhu Yuanzhang's roar, he frowned, slowly put down the writing brush for reviewing the memorial, and said: "Father, when brother-in-law Ouyang called out to attract investment and open up the market, didn't you also agree? Why? Are you starting to question Ouyang Lun’s brother-in-law again?”

"Yes." Wang Zhong nodded without any hesitation.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's angry look, Zhu Biao was quite helpless at the moment, "Father, are you really willing to kill brother-in-law Ouyang?"

After hearing Zhu Biao's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger not only did not subside, but became even more angry, "We agreed to this at the time, but Ouyang Lun didn't tell us that he would spend millions of taels to build an unknown small town. Fish Village!”

"Uh" Zhu Yuanzhang's face was filled with black lines, and after a moment he roared: "Even so, it cannot be a reason for Ouyang Lun to avoid death!!"

"Prince-in-law, you manage your time so well!" Wang Zhong was on the verge of tears. He originally thought that there would be no need to spend a lot of time today, but it turned out that Ouyang Lun was eyeing everything he had, and His Majesty was anxious to see Ouyang Lun. , he didn’t dare to delay.

"This" Wang Zhong was speechless.

"Please call me a master of time management. Life is short, so use every minute and every second so that you won't feel any regrets when you think about it when you get older." Ouyang Lun said with a smile.

With that said, Zhu Yuanzhang threw a thick stack of memorials on the Long Case, "Biao'er, you see for yourself, how long has it been since then? There are memorials everywhere impeaching Ouyang Lun, that is, Ouyang Lun. If it were another person, I’ll probably stay in the prison for now!”

"Ahem." Ouyang Lun coughed twice in embarrassment, "Since you have brought them here, my lord, let them stay in the clan mansion first. When I come back after seeing His Majesty, I can enjoy them all. These are all It was carefully prepared by your father-in-law, it cannot be wasted.”

He couldn't help complaining in his heart. Every time he came to call Ouyang Lun, Ouyang Lun could give out a lot of reasons. Either he was feeling unwell, he didn't have suitable clothes, or he was hungry, etc. Wang Zhong also practiced this again and again. Only among them can we be so well prepared.

Ouyang Lun looked at the dull Wang Zhong and asked curiously.

He was really afraid that if he said something wrong and made this "living father" unhappy, then His Majesty would blame him, and only he, Wang Zhong, would be scolded and suffer.

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right!" Wang Zhong could only agree helplessly.

Then, Zhu Yuanzhang said with fierce eyes: "Even his head fell to the ground!"

"Isn't he just Ouyang Lun? Just kill him. As an emperor, how can we be coerced?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.

"Building a small fishing village near the sea in the south into a trade zone? Throw millions of taels of silver at your fingertips. Does he really think that the Ming Dynasty's treasury can be squandered by him now!!"

"I don't know whether it's a threat or not. What I know is that if Ouyang's brother-in-law is gone, your military expenses for the Northern Expedition will be gone." Zhu Biao shook his head.

Zhu Biao was sitting on the dragon chair reviewing memorials.

"My lord, if you don't want to work with His Majesty anymore, you can come to me. I think you are capable enough to do many things, and I will give you a high salary!"

At this moment, there was a sound outside the hall.

"The Minister of the Ministry of Finance, the Imperial Order of the Clan, and the Prince Consort Ouyang Lun have arrived!!"

The words fell.

Ouyang Lun, led by Wang Zhong, stepped in. "My son-in-law Ouyang Lun pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Ouyang Lun saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Haha, Ouyang is here! Excuse me quickly!" Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stepped forward to support Ouyang Lun, "There is no need for these red tapes between our father-in-law and son-in-law!"

Um! ?

Zhu Biao was stunned when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction to Ouyang Lun.

His father, who had just been complaining to him about Ouyang Lun and yelling to kill him, immediately put on a new face when he saw Ouyang Lun. This face became so slippery!
Ouyang Lun was also a little confused at the moment. He didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude today to be so affectionate.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Ouyang Lun was calm on the surface, but he was wary in his heart.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty's words are really frightening to my son-in-law!"

Ouyang Lun said.

"It's okay, you'll get used to it from now on!" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take it seriously and still greeted you with a smile. "In the past, we had some prejudice against you, and some things happened, which led to some misunderstandings between our father-in-law and son-in-law. Last time in the clan, We drank in the house and had a frank conversation with our husband. Many things were made clear, so naturally we have to take back those prejudices! "

That day when the clan was drinking, they were quite candid. Both of them were injured, Zhu Biao murmured in his heart.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. I am very touched!" Although I don't know what kind of medicine Zhu Yuanzhang is selling in this gourd, I will cooperate with the performance first. "My son-in-law also reflects on it every day. I have made many mistakes in the past, and I will definitely improve in the future!"

"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "Then you still call us Your Majesty?!"

What else would you call your Majesty?

Ouyang Lun was stunned for a moment, then realized, "The emperor's father-in-law!"

"A good son-in-law!"

"Emperor's father-in-law!"

"A good son-in-law!"

The two actually hugged each other.

Zhu Yuanzhang: Haha, demo, I only need to use a little trick to completely defeat you. If you are too tough, I will be soft! It will make you cry!
Ouyang Lun: Tender drama? Haha, I don’t know what kind of urine you have, Lao Zhu. If you want to act, then I will act with you and see who’s acting is better!
"Emperor's father-in-law, my son-in-law heard you cursing when I just came in. Could it be that you were cursing me?"

"That's nonsense! You are our most satisfied prince-in-law, no one can scold you!"

"Thank you very much for the compliment, the emperor's father-in-law! But I heard that many officials came to my son-in-law?"

"No, no, even if there is, it's a false accusation!"

"Emperor's father-in-law, what is this thick stack of memorials you are holding in your hand?" Ouyang Lun asked curiously, pointing to the memorials held in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand.

"It's just some insignificant memorials. We originally asked Wang Zhong to take them and burn them." Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Wang Zhong, "Take them and burn them!"

"Yes!" Wang Zhong did not dare to delay and quickly took the memorial and took it to deal with.

Um! ! ? ?

Zhu Biao, Wang Zhong and others standing on the side were dumbfounded. Is it progressing so fast? What a scene of "a loving father-in-law and a filial son-in-law"!
But it always feels a little unreal, too fake.

"Ahem, father and brother-in-law Ouyang, are you looking for something serious?" Zhu Biao couldn't stand it anymore and said quickly.

"That's right." Zhu Yuanzhang separated from Ouyang Lun and asked with a smile: "Xianxiang, I heard that you have met with many foreign businessmen recently. Have you achieved anything?"

"Going back to the emperor's father-in-law, these foreign businessmen have become very interested in doing business in our Ming Dynasty, and they all expressed their intention to invest in our Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "Xian son-in-law, these foreign businessmen are not of my race, and their intentions must be different. What if they have plans for our Ming Dynasty? What should we do?"

Ouyang Lun said with a smile: "Emperor's father-in-law, today's Ming Dynasty is not weak. Don't belittle yourself. It's okay if they behave well. If they want to cause trouble, we will certainly not be lenient!"

"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "Then how valuable are they?"

"In addition to their coming to Ming Dynasty to do business can drive Ming Dynasty's own development, provide employment and tax revenue, we can also further squeeze their value." Ouyang Lun said with a smile.

Seeing Ouyang Lun's evil smile, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but shudder, "Xian son-in-law, are you trying to squeeze them dry?"

"When I was the county magistrate in Kaiping County, I raised a slogan, which is called "Kaiping makes money, Kaiping flowers bloom, don't even think about taking home a penny!" Ouyang Lun continued: "Now this sentence has to be changed, it is called Ming Dynasty making money. Da Minghua, don’t even think about taking a cent home!”

“Whether it’s the money they brought, the money they earned, or even the money they haven’t brought yet, it all has to stay in Daming!!”

When he heard Ouyang Lun's words, Zhu Yuanzhang had to admit that he was moved from the bottom of his heart.

According to Ouyang Lun, these foreign businessmen did not come to plunder the Ming Dynasty's wealth or do harm to the Ming Dynasty at all, but they were fat pigs waiting for them to be slaughtered!

Zhu Yuanzhang might have had some reasons to plunder the wealth of local wealthy people in the Ming Dynasty, and even felt a little guilty about it, such as Shen Wansan, but he had no burden at all for plundering foreign businessmen.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang immediately wanted to take action, arrest those foreign businessmen, torture them, and make them spit out all their wealth. However, this idea was rejected by Zhu Yuanzhang after just thinking about it, because he knew very well that here, On the other hand, Ouyang Lun definitely has a better way.

My "warmth tactics" are really useful! Isn’t this another way to make a lot of money!

"Xian son-in-law, hurry up and tell me the details!"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked impatiently.

Ouyang Lun came here this time to discuss this matter with Zhu Yuanzhang, so he no longer concealed it, but said directly: "If we want to achieve the goal of 'Da Ming makes money, Da Ming flowers don't even think about taking home a penny', we must first We must first attract enough foreign businessmen to come to Ming Dynasty.”

"So brother-in-law, you built the Hong Kong Village Trade Zone?" Zhu Biao seemed to have figured something out and asked with a smile.

"Yes, the Hong Kong Village Trade Zone is a trap for foreign businessmen to sneak in!" Ouyang Lun nodded and continued: "Secondly, we must let these foreign businessmen see that Ming Dynasty is full of business opportunities, so that they are willing to work in Ming Dynasty. Spend real money on investment, as long as they dare to invest the money, the money will not be able to get out! "

"What a great idea!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes shone, "What happens next? What should we do next?"

"If we plunder directly, I'm afraid it will have a bad impact, right?" Zhu Biao frowned.
