Chapter 47 Revealing the Secret

"Eunuch Wei's great kindness will never be forgotten by my nephew."

"I know that my nephew, you are a person who values ​​friendship. Come and have a drink with us."

Zhang Zongxian quickly picked up the wine glass and said:

"My nephew has a drink for his uncle."

After the two had a drink, Eunuch Li asked Zhang Zongxian again:

"My dear nephew, I see that the county under your rule is more prosperous and lively than that of Yan'an. When I entered Qingjian County, the people I met along the way praised you as the great master of Qingtian! This is the only time I have been in that county since I came out of Beijing.

Never encountered this before”

Zhang Zongxian was very proud to hear this. You cancers of feudal society don't know what a service-oriented government is. You only know how to make money, but you don't know how to fatten first and then kill. He thought so in his heart but said:

"My father has always taught me that as an official, I have to make decisions for the people."

"Well said! Come and toast your father together. He has raised a good son."

That cheap dad taught me shit. I was born to be an official. In my previous life, I should have taken the exam to get a solid job. Maybe I would have become the county magistrate long ago.

After a few drinks, Eunuch Li asked again:

"I think that Taiping is your property!"

Zhang Zongxian's heart skipped a beat when he heard the name Taiping. Didn't the old eunuch fall in love with him?

"It's the property of my concubine's family. My nephew just helps take care of it."

"My dear nephew, you are overly worried. I saw that Taiping Bank was losing money in lending money. Is there anything special about it?"

It’s not like you vampires only know how to suck blood and don’t know how to feed back, then the common people are almost rebelling after being sucked by you. If we don’t let the common people increase their productivity and produce more food, how can we survive the Xiaoglaihe incident.

"Hey, after my nephew took office, he received an official document from the court asking for a tax increase. Half of the land in Qingjian County is in the hands of the vassal king, and the officials are already squeezing the people to the point of being overwhelmed.

If we want to raise taxes, we are afraid of causing a civil commotion! My nephew cannot increase taxes in the name of exchanging land deeds. He also lends farm tools and cattle to hope that the people can produce more food.

My nephew watched the stars at night and found that winter will be colder every year, and summer will be drier every year! This is also to prepare for the severe drought in the coming year."

This guy can also watch the sky at night. He was very surprised and looked at Zhang Zongxian a lot. He has no outstanding temperament!

Zhang Zongxian, on the other hand, sat there calmly, looking like a master. He was thinking to himself that you are a country bumpkin. Not only can I observe the stars at night, but I also studied Eastern and Western astrology in order to pick up girls. I can fool you by talking about it.

And I can not only predict the weather but also the future.

Eunuch Li is also an old man, so how could he believe that he could observe the sky at night? So he thought of teasing him a few words.

"My dear nephew can watch the sky at night, so can you see if it will snow in the next few days? I need to rush back to the capital as soon as possible!"

This question stupefied Zhang Zongxian. All he knew was about predicting fortune, not the weather! Fortunately, in his previous life, the Internet was developed, so Zhang Zongxian began to boast that in order to predict celestial phenomena, he needed to build the Seven Star Altar, and he had to build it three days in advance.

Bathing and fasting can predict success.

And his ability to observe the sky at night was also learned from the lineage of Zhuge Wuhou, who was very particular about not revealing the secrets of the sky at will.

Then he started to cheat, telling how he became the descendant of Wuhou. Once he was drinking with his friends, and a beggar came to beg for a drink. The friends wanted to drive the beggar away.

But Zhang Zongxian discovered that although the beggar was wearing tatters, it could be vaguely seen that it was a seven-star Taoist robe.

I felt that this beggar was not simple, so I immediately asked the store owner to arrange for the beggar to eat and drink happily in the backyard for three days. After that, I never saw the beggar again.

It wasn't until Zhang Zongxian was observing filial piety after his father died of illness that the beggar suddenly appeared at his house, and then told him his origins and took him in as his apprentice, teaching him how to govern the country and bring peace to the people, as well as astronomy and geography to predict bad luck.

Until he was about to take office after the period of observing filial piety. His master set up an altar to ask the sky to predict his bad luck. As a result, his master was casting a spell on the altar and suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground. When he rushed to the altar to help his master, his master had already

Unconscious.

When his master woke up, he said that he had stolen a secret that led to the end of the world. He also said that in two years, a new emperor would board the plane, and the Ming Dynasty would usher in three major catastrophes. One was the increasingly cold weather, and the other was the Jurchens.

Use shamanic magic to bring trouble to Liaodong, and thirdly, overseas demons are coming.

The Ming Dynasty has been in existence for more than 200 years. If it cannot withstand these three major disasters, the building will surely collapse.

And Zhang Zongxian is the one who deserves the disaster.

After saying this, his master died.

Eunuch Li was stunned for a long time and didn't say anything.

Zhang Zongxian smiled smugly in his heart and said, the routines of this martial arts novel are really powerful. Looking at Eunuch Li's performance, you can tell that he has been deceived.

Eunuch Li knew that Wan Li was in poor health, but he said that he died in two years. Zhang Zongxian was so bold! Aren't you afraid that word would spread that his family would be confiscated and his family would be exterminated?

If Wanli dies, wouldn't the current prince be the emperor? Could it be Prince Fu?

Eunuch Li asked carefully

"My dear nephew, did your master say who will be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in two years?"

Zhang Zongxian didn't say anything and just wrote the word "school" on the table in a mysterious manner.

This shocked Eunuch Li. Although he was illiterate, he still knew the name of the master he served.

Zhang Zongxian also showed off information about his past life while under the influence of alcohol.

Eunuch Li calmly erased the word "school". He was thinking in his mind whether this boy knew what he was doing in the palace. But this time he left the palace, it was a last-minute decision. He went very fast and did not delay on the way.

He was the one who sent the letter to this boy from the Wei Dynasty, and he even found someone to read it to him. There was nothing said in it!

Could it be that his master really stole the secret? Otherwise, how could such an ignorant person do such a thing in less than three months? Someone must have taught him!

Those who read the books of sages do not have such abilities as him.

What’s more, this guy is very shady and can predict bad luck, which is a rare talent!

With the calculation in mind, Eunuch Li began to change the topic to the milk wine today.

"My dear nephew, you must also know why I am here."

"My nephew knows"

"Then tell me the truth, how many kilograms of this wine can be delivered to the capital every month?"

Zhang Zongxian knew that this was the real drama. He immediately revealed the distribution plan he had thought of:

"This heavenly milk can supply the palace with twenty kilograms of thirty-year-old wine every month, thirty kilograms of twenty-year-old wine, and fifty kilograms of ten-year-old wine.

In addition, I will send to Eunuch Wei and my uncle separately 40 jins of 30-year-old wine, 60 jins of 20-year-old wine, and 100 jins of ten-year-old wine."

This is not a small amount. The total amount of wine given to them based on the set retail price is nearly 23,000 taels.

Eunuch Li was very satisfied with Zhang Zongxian's assignment. The two continued to have a good time drinking and talking.
Chapter completed!
