The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1135

[1135.Chapter 1084 Fang Jifan is born without birth]

Jifan is not born from heaven. The Japanese are coming in force.

Guests from North Korea are coming too.

It is said that it will arrive next month.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the memorial from Honglu Temple, frowned, and was speechless.

With so many people crowded into Honglu Temple in the old city, how to accommodate them is indeed a big problem.

Fortunately, most of these Japanese were descendants of wealthy families, and Powei was proficient in Chinese studies. They were easy to control when they first came to the capital. How could they be settled in the future?

In the memorial of the Minister of Honglu Temple, it was mentioned in passing that the Honglu Temple in the new city was used to entertain envoys from various countries, while the Honglu Temple in the old city had been in disrepair for a long time. Now it suddenly entertains so many people. Is it necessary to allocate some money and food? , repair it.

Emperor Hongzhi looked unhappy: “If you really want to allocate money and grain, why don’t you go to the Ministry of Household Affairs? But you gave it to me privately. What does this mean? The family and the country are not divided, but fortunately he is still an old minister.”

Xiao Jing stood aside and heard Emperor Hongzhi was sullen and noncommittal to the criticism of Honglu Temple Minister. Xiao Jing naturally understood His Majesty’s thoughts, so he smiled: “Your Majesty, he is indeed confused. Your Majesty is so frugal, and his money and expenses are huge. Your Majesty can’t find a way to blame him. But they don’t know your Majesty’s difficulties and everything.” They are all thinking about His Majesty’s inner treasury, so…how can they not worry about you?”

Emperor Hongzhi felt that it was inappropriate.

In any case, this is a minister, and although this minister is thinking about my money bag, he may not have done anything terribly wrong. He sighed: “Come on, let’s not talk about this. Oh, I asked you to check it. Warrior Bian, what did you find out?”

“Your Majesty.” Xiao Jing looked around and whispered: “This man is very popular now. Countless people applaud him. He also wrote a book of his own and the sales volume is also high. It’s very good. It’s called “Right Mind”. This means that the current situation is too impetuous, so that everyone is blinded by interests. Therefore, we teach people to have a straight mind and not be confused by the external disturbances. Not only that, but also others. He is also preparing to write a book to refute “The Wealth of Nations”. He also has a lot of complaints about the current Xincheng. Liu Gong and Li Gong are right. This person is indeed sensationalizing, but he has to be careful. As far as the slave knows, his current disciple , there are three thousand people…even…even…”

“Even what?” Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.

“Even the two uncles actually worshiped him as their teacher. They said that after listening to his class, they were enlightened and wonderful. They wished they could be his pawns and ride on the horse for the rest of their lives… Not only that, many Hanlin scholars have worked with him. He is so close that he is now criticizing the housing prices in Xincheng very much. He believes that the prices in Xincheng will be halved in the near future. Therefore, Xishan Jianye seems to be in a difficult situation. It is said that… His Highness the Crown Prince is being chased for debts. “

Emperor Hongzhi. Hearing this, his face changed: “This traitor, does he still owe money?”

Xiao Jing consciously lost his words and said with a sad face: “It is said that Captain Fang and His Royal Highness spent a lot of money to purchase land. , they support so many people, and the expenses are huge. Although they make money every day, the money is like running water.”

Emperor Hongzhi’s face turned cold: “This warrior Bian is deceiving the public with his evil words, and his sin is unpardonable. .”

Xiao Jing fell silent.

Emperor Hongzhi glared at him: “Why didn’t you say anything?”

“Your Majesty.” Xiao Jing said with a bitter smile: “I think what Mr. Li said is very reasonable. It’s not because of the warrior Bian who persuaded people to sell their properties. Because… because… this person’s hypocrisy has captured the imagination of many people, hoping to return to the way they used to be before, where they could buy hundreds of acres of land and build a mansion without any effort. Therefore, there was a group of people who seemed to be interested in it. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Captain Fang were dissatisfied, and then… the warrior Bian followed him and made a lot of noise to build momentum. Therefore… the servant felt that although this person was guilty of unpardonable crimes and deceived the public with his monstrous words, there was a problem. The root cause… is that many civil and military officials, or gentry and wealthy families have complained.”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: “Those two boys have taken too big a step. You see, they will suffer a loss now. If it cannot be withdrawn, not only will it collapse, but Xishan Bank will also be affected. All the cash in my internal treasury is still stored in Xishan Bank. “

When he thought of this, Emperor Hongzhi was heartbroken.

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao really played too much.

It is an attempt to directly build a new city and accommodate dozens or millions of refugees into this huge project. It is also hoped that a group of scholar-bureaucrats, wealthy households, and aristocratic families will foot the bill.

There is no such good thing in this world.

Although it was a series of operations by Xishan Jianye and a set of combination punches that knocked these people into confusion, but they realized afterwards that something was wrong, so… the sound of rebound naturally came out.

Rather than saying that Samurai Bian led the trend, it is better to say that countless people used Samurai Bian to vent their dissatisfaction.

They… don’t want to accompany me anymore!

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head, feeling worried in his heart: “I hope everything is safe. This warrior Bian needs to be watched more closely.”

Speaking of warrior Bian, Emperor Hongzhi couldn’t help but become cold. He hated this person, this guy… …seems to be working against myself.

“My slave obeys the order.”

Emperor Hongzhi continued, but then sighed.

“I was wondering whether to take out the silver from the inner treasury from Xishan Bank, and I always felt uneasy.”

But then, he shook his head: “That’s it, I have been tied together by the two boys, the prince and Fang Jifan. “Well, if they can’t escape, can I escape? In a few days, Xunfang Jifan will come and knock one or two, and let him look at my money carefully.”

Xiao Jing smiled and thought to himself, even His Majesty .

Being so worried, it seems… Fang Jifan must have run out of skills. We also have dozens of acres of mansion in Xincheng. It seems… we have to find an opportunity… to sell it.

…

There is a reason why Samurai Bian is so popular.

At least Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling were extremely happy.

Because… house prices have indeed loosened.

Don’t look at Xishan Jianye’s new homes, but the prices haven’t moved at all.

But it seems that many second-hand mansions are starting to be listed in Yaxing in Xincheng, and the market prices are often one or two thousand taels lower than those sold by Xishan Jianye. This is just the beginning… More people are starting to wait and see, not daring to Take action rashly.

At this moment, everyone felt reassured.

The two brothers carried several kilograms of bacon and excitedly looked for Master Wu’s mansion.

After seeing the gift, Zhang Heling said with a smile: “Teacher, how are you doing? Hello, my student has brought you a few kilograms of bacon. Hey, the student has left it here.”

The warrior Bian said with a smile: “Come and sit down. Sit down.”

Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling put down the bacon and sat down.

The warrior Bian stroked his long beard: “The two uncles are so polite. They even brought gifts when they came.”

Zhang Heling said: “My two brothers admire you sir. This is just a small thing. Sir, students are here. I want to ask again, is the house price going to fall again?”

Warrior Bian nodded: “Of course, I don’t understand what I said?”

The two brothers looked at each other, Zhang Heling shook his head and said happily: “No, no, no, Just to confirm, actually… my two brothers also own some real estate in Xincheng, not much, just a few acres of land, but I thought that since it will fall, it is better to sell it first to save a little bit. But I just don’t feel at ease.”

Warrior Bian said, “When have I ever made false promises?”

The two brothers looked at each other and felt confident. Zhang Heling said, “If this continues to fall, will Xishan Jianye be over? There are so many people. The expenses are like running water. If no one dares to buy a house, I’m afraid…then tens of millions of people will lose their livelihood. The emperor will definitely not allow Xishan Jianye to ignore the lives of these people. By then Xishan Jianye will definitely not be able to hold on.”

Warrior Bian smiled, he always looked enigmatic: “The most terrifying thing is Xishan Bank. This Xishan Bank has lent so many loans. Once it goes down, it will definitely not be able to recover the loans. If a person violates the previous loan contract, Xishan Bank will give the money of countless depositors to Xishan Jianye. Xishan Jianye will not be able to survive, and the money will not flow back. Once people panic and a run occurs, Xishan Bank will Nine times out of ten, it will plummet a thousand miles, and eventually…”

Zhang Heling took a breath of cold air.

Then, he couldn’t help but burst into joy.

He liked to see Xiao Fang in trouble. After asking about it, he felt confident and the two brothers left naturally.

Warrior Bian still had a smile on his face, but when the Zhang brothers left, a servant boy wanted to collect the bacon. Warrior Bian pulled his face down and couldn’t help but muttered: “I’m so stingy for such a big uncle to give away two kilograms of bacon.” .”

The boy servant suddenly let out a cry.

Warrior Bian Xun looked over and said, “What’s wrong?”

The boy servant said, “Sir, this bacon is moldy and smelly, and it’s also infested with… maggots…”

Warrior Bian’s throat couldn’t help but roll, and there was a faint feeling in his stomach. An extremely uncomfortable feeling.

………

Hanlin Academy.

Many Hanlin officials winked at Wang Bushi.

Many people find it strange that this king, who is not an official, actually bought a mansion.

I heard that I bought it from a dental store and the price was much cheaper.

One breath is hundreds of acres…

It is said that… I borrowed a lot of money from Xishan Bank.

The Hanlin officials are now convinced, perhaps because of the trend caused by Mr. Wu, or perhaps for other reasons. In short, no one cares about the mansion in Xincheng, and Wang Bushi is still holding on to it.

Nowadays, many people are thinking about selling their mansion. After all… they are worried. If this continues to fall, when will it end?

What Mr. Wu said was very reasonable…

But at this moment, Wang Bushi suddenly glanced at them: “Recently, a building was opened in the new city, called Tianxinyuan. The area here is more desolate, and it only costs 23,000 taels. It just opened, are you interested? If you are interested, hurry up and buy it, you will not be deceived.”

Everyone looked at each other, but they all sneered in their hearts. At this time, they are still urging people to buy the mansion. This is It’s very harmful.
