The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1623

[1623. Chapter 1543 Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness]

kindness. Emperor Hongzhi couldn’t help but sigh in his heart after hearing Fang Jifan’s words.

This is the difference between a son and a son-in-law.

All very smart.

But a person can’t wait to have his intelligence written on his face.

The other one is much better. He is very open-minded and never takes any credit or pride.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed with emotion: “Speaking of which, I was indeed wrong. I only saw the immediate benefits, and what Fang Qing’s family gained was also the benefit of the country.”

He shook his head, and then said: “Since I know Wrong, of course it needs to be corrected. The prince and the Fang Qing family should run this workshop well. From now on, I will not care about any affairs in this workshop. If you want to sell medicine and do other things, it is your own business. You are responsible for your profits and losses. “

Say it,” he looked at Fang Jifan with a deep look in his eyes.

Fang Jifan said it right.

There is nothing more important in this world than training the prince.

Silver… is the next best thing.

Speaking of which, Fang Jifan is a truly capable person. Although sometimes these ideas often come unexpectedly, they are effective.

What the prince just said touches on the essence of the emperor’s art.

Just because the prince could realize this was worth a thousand pieces of money to Emperor Hongzhi.

“I lost, I admit it, Prince…”

Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses in a daze.

He is very confused.

So, he hurriedly said: “My son is here.”

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to have figured out something important, and he felt much better. He smiled and said to Zhu Houzhao: “You are not bad.”

Looking at his father’s smile, Zhu Houzhao was… I was confused as to why I added the word “ye”.

He worked hard to sift through his memories. From the very beginning, he worked hard to run this workshop. From then on, he made a lot of money and made a bet with his father, which he also proposed.

After that… my father messed up, just as he expected.

But why?

I am puzzled.

Did your father eat the rice from his family?

Zhu Houzhao learned the lesson he learned half a month ago and said with a smile: “Thanks to the compliment from my father, I am overjoyed.”

But at this moment, Zhou Wenying had already left and returned.

He panted and ran to Zhu Houzhao and said: “Your Highness, the villain has just brought people to summon the channel dealers they have contacted for negotiation. They were also happy to learn that His Highness was back in charge of the workshop. Now, their hearts are filled with joy. It’s a good idea. Many people made decisions on the spot and wanted to place additional orders. I don’t know how many goods there are in the warehouse. I don’t know if they should be dispatched immediately to avoid everyone being anxious.”

Emperor Hongzhi and Liu Jian looked at each other at this moment.

Is this an additional order?

Just because he learned that Zhu Houzhao was back in charge of the workshop?

Zhu Houzhao said with a beaming expression: “Well done, let’s wait and receive the reward.”

Zhou Wenying said ashamedly: “Your Highness, this is nothing. In fact… the channel dealers still look at your Highness’s face. If it were someone else…”

When he talked about other people, he meant something, and then he said: “If other people, even if they are the little people who tell the truth, they are the brothers of the channel merchants, they will definitely not be willing to add new orders. They His Highness Su Zhi will always do everything possible to control production and rectify channels to protect their interests, so he will do everything possible to do it. “

With the order, it will be easier.

Zhu Houzhao summoned the people in the warehouse and ordered them to liquidate the inventory and arrange the goods to be shipped out of the warehouse.

In just a moment… he had the matter settled.

Emperor Hongzhi was also determined.

When Zhu Houzhao came back from his busy work, he saw Emperor Hongzhi and said to Fang Jifan: “Fang Qing’s family, this workshop will be handed over to you and the prince. With you here, I feel relieved.”

He gave Fang Jifan a deep look, which meant Fang Jifan understood the deep look in his eyes.

Making money is certainly a gratifying thing, but if this workshop can still grow, that would be even better.

Of course, the most important thing is to continue to hone the prince. This is an opportunity for the prince to learn more about how to be a good emperor.

Fang Jifan said in a familiar manner: “Your Majesty is really well-intentioned, and I certainly understand it. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will have a good life here and take care of Your Highness.”

Zhu Houzhao: “…”

Emperor Hongzhi laughed: “This time, I will lose. I am convinced, and I feel comfortable when I lose. I lost a bet, but what I gained was much more than what I lost in this bet. Fang Qing’s family always thinks about the country, the country, and the country. I… feel very relieved. Come here. , gave Fang Jifan the crown of five chapters, and the crown of the four seasons, as a sign of favor.”

Fang Jifan’s face froze.

Damn it…

it seems… it seems that we have reached the point where I am not, I don’t have, and I don’t want it again.

Not everyone can wear this crown gown.

Among them, the nine chapters of Gunmian are the ceremonial dress of the crown prince, which is used to worship the state, receive the title, and take in concubines. In normal times, only seven chapters of Gunmian can be worn. The same goes for the prince.

And this Gunmian Wuzhang is the prince’s ordinary dress, or it can be worn by the prince and his son when celebrating his father’s birthday and other festivals.

Therefore…Gon was given five chapters of crown crown. This was a treatment only given to a prince or a prince’s son. And if the prince wants the same treatment, he can only wear it during festivals.

Your Majesty, what does this mean?

I give myself such treatment, but I am just a prince.

Is it too ostentatious?

Fang Jifan was heartbroken.

He was very familiar with the pig butcher’s technique. Before killing the pig, he would give it a good meal and let it relax for a while, then tie it up, seal its throat with a knife, and bleed it.

Is this considered a good meal?

“Aiya…” His mental words only lasted for a moment. Fang Jifan waved his hand without hesitation: “Your Majesty is so kind, how dare I accept it… This goes beyond etiquette. How dare I wear a crown, even if it is my father?” King, I don’t dare to wear it easily. Your Majesty must not do it. I must not accept it. I am ashamed and ashamed.”

He looked at Fang Jifan waving his hands quickly, with a look of sincerity and fear.

Emperor Hongzhi was overjoyed. He laughed heartily: “This is your strength. You have finally learned to be open-minded and not take fame and fortune to heart. But if you refuse, I will still give it…”

He glanced at Zhu Houzhao glanced at him and

said

meaningfully: “The prince and you are like brothers. I can’t teach him, but he is willing to listen to your teachings. I just want to let the prince know that people should be more humble.”

After that, Emperor Hongzhi stood up: “It’s getting late, I should go back to the palace. Here, the prince has learned something, and I have also learned a lot. Liu Qing, Li Qing, let’s go.”

Liu and Li Er The man nodded.

I have to say that they were sincerely convinced at this time.

The truth that the prince just said may seem simple, but in fact it is more advanced than the simple emperor’s mental skills.

Of course, these words cannot be said to the outside world. To the outside world, it is inevitable to say some high-sounding words such as etiquette, justice, integrity and shame.

But isn’t that what the art of mastering people is all about?

The two of them followed Emperor Hongzhi out of the palace.

But Chen Tong was anxious.

Your Majesty is leaving, why don’t you call me.

What does this mean?

He didn’t know what to do next.

Chen Tong’s face was green and white, and he finally mustered up the courage to catch up: “Your Majesty…”

Emperor Hongzhi stopped and looked back at him: “Ah… what’s the matter?”

Chen Tong’s face was red with embarrassment, and he didn’t know what to say for a moment. That’s good. However, Emperor

Hongzhi

just glanced at him indifferently: “Why are the Qing family silent again?”

“Is it…is this minister…also serving His Majesty?

Look at this Chen Tong.

What a tragedy…

He also served as the Minister of Hubu, and Chen Tong had always been valued by him in the Hubu.

Originally, this time, I wanted him to show his face in front of His Majesty, who knew…

He shook his head…

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Chen Tong with a playful expression, but said: “Stay in the Ministry of Finance…”

Chen Tong continued to watch carefully. Looking at Emperor Hongzhi, he looked expectantly.

Emperor Hongzhi said, “What’s the use of staying in the Ministry of Husbandry?”

Chen Tong: “…”

Emperor Hongzhi said calmly: “If you were in the Ministry of Husbandry, how much money would you save in my treasury?”

“My lord… “

Sir…” Chen Tong suddenly felt sad, angry and humiliated.

“You might as well stay in this workshop and learn what economics is. It will be of great benefit to you.”

Emperor Hongzhi dropped these words lightly and left.

Chen Tong knelt here alone, as if he had been struck by lightning.

Staying here…

what’s going on?

I am the Minister of Household Affairs, and I am in a temple position.

So…when can I return to the household department?

If His Majesty had not remembered him, there is a high probability that His Majesty would never remember him in the future.

Then… wouldn’t he stay in this workshop for the rest of his life?

As soon as Emperor Hongzhi left, he couldn’t help but burst into tears and cried: “It’s an unreasonable disaster, it’s an unreasonable disaster.”

As he said this, he was about to cry again.

Having reached this stage, I originally thought that if I took another step forward, my future would be even brighter.

How could I have known that after going out with His Majesty, I would end up in this situation.

How miserable.

He burst into tears, dripping down his clothes.

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao sent the emperor back respectfully and saw him mourning here.

Fang Jifan was annoyed. He was always the most direct towards this kind of people, so he stepped forward and gave him a slap in the face.

It was just that he was gentle and slapped with his palm, but Chen Tong was still caught off guard and was stunned: “You…why did you hit someone? It’s so humiliating…”

Fang Jifan bared his teeth and said: “You bitch, this is the rule of this workshop. I can beat whoever I want. Why are you crying here, eating my food, and dare to ruin my fortune? If I can’t beat you to death, what are you looking at?” What are you looking at? Pour some tea.”

Chen Tong stared at Fang Jifan, his eyes bursting into flames. It’s really unreasonable. Today… today…

his old face twitched, anger overflowing on the surface.

But suddenly… this angry and distorted face suddenly squeezed out a smile, and his voice instantly became gentle: “Okay, okay, Duke Qi is really good-natured. I have admired him for a long time. I honestly told you nothing about pouring tea and water.” , I’m afraid that the lower official can’t do it, so Duke Qi might as well give him other errands out of consideration for the lower official.”
