In the blink of an eye, it’s New Year’s Eve.

People came to the palace early and asked Zhu Jun to enter the palace early.

Lao Zhu was a man who valued family very much. On New Year's Eve, everyone in the capital must go to the palace for reunion.

After the Chinese New Year, the first day of the first lunar month is a national holiday, and it only lasts for one day.

Special search.

And on this day, Lao Zhu would usually have a banquet with all the ministers and then get very drunk.

It's not so much a holiday for others as it is a holiday for himself!

The whole palace of Prince Wu was also decorated with lanterns and festoons.

Everyone put on new clothes and were very happy.

However, Zhu Jun had a lot to do today. After getting up early, he first went to deliver rice and oil to the victims over sixty years old.

In his time, he would have been too lazy to pick up the connection, but in the great cause, it was a boon that was truly implemented.

Everyone was grateful, kneeling and kowtowing, which made Zhu Jun feel embarrassed!

It feels like a show!

Then, the lucky kids who are under fifteen years old are given lucky money, ten coppers per person. Although it is not much, it is enough for them to buy some snacks and have a happy day.

After walking around for a while, it was noon, and Zhu Jun had become addicted to the leader's inspection tour.

There are still many problems that can be discovered.

“The lives of the villagers are still a bit poor, so we should try to improve their living standards as much as possible.

The roads should also be widened, don't worry about money.

There are twenty or thirty people living in a place as big as a palm. How many people will die if water breaks out?

In the future we will establish a vassal state, but not now. Now that they have settled down, let them take root here.

Let’s talk about it in the future.

There are fewer wells, so make two more, and make the outside higher, so be careful of those little ones falling in.

After the New Year, they will be allowed to plant the land in the spring, and the seeds will also need to be arranged.

Collective contracting and collective harvesting will be done according to the common share system as mentioned before.

We don’t charge them rent, we are self-sufficient in food, and with such a large land, when the autumn harvest comes, our palace’s finances will be easier!”

Zhu Jun walked and talked all the way, while Li Jiba followed behind and took notes all the way.

When they returned to the palace, everyone was hungry.

Looking at the problems I found, there were dozens of them.

There are too many things he wants to do, but execution is still too slow. Li Jiba has too many things to take care of and is too busy to do all the work.

Niu 56 likes to read scripts every day. I don't worry about loyalty. He is just straight-forward and cannot do such detailed work well.

"There are still too few people available!" Zhu Jun sighed. There were many people in the house, but there were only two who could be used. Those who were capable could not believe it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Li Shanren came over and said, "Your Highness, are you going to the palace to celebrate the New Year this afternoon?"

Zhu Jun came back to his senses, "Well, but I want to celebrate the New Year with everyone in the palace first, and then go to the palace to celebrate the New Year with my father and the others!

Do you want to go to my sister’s house to celebrate the New Year?

If so, just go with your brother-in-law, and my father won’t say anything during the Chinese New Year!”

Li Shanren shook his head: "No, I just want to ask how many people there are. I want the kitchen in the back row to cook. Prepare the dishes and chopsticks in advance to avoid losing etiquette."

"We will prepare as many chopsticks as there are people in the palace, prepare rich dishes, and treat everyone well," Zhu Jun said.

Li Shanren nodded and immediately resigned.

On weekdays, he was still the head of the Endeavor Hall, but after he came out of the Endeavor Hall, he became the steward of the palace. With his methods, in just a few days, he had a complete picture of the situation inside and outside the palace.

Of course, he doesn't care.

For example, the money and keys of the treasury, daily purchases of the palace, etc.

Unless Zhu Jun personally authorizes it, he will never ask about it.

Xun Busan wanted to fight, but was treated submissively by him and followed him to do things.

After Li Shanren left, Xun Busan said aggrievedly: "Your Highness, he has done all the slaves' work!"

"Useless thing, you have been in the house for so many years and he has only been here a few days? How can you still feel aggrieved!" Zhu Jun slapped him with his backhand, "Listen to me, I don't have idle people in my house, you

Either learn from Li Shanren, or stand in front of me in the future!"

Xun Busan covered his head and did not dare to say a word. He originally thought that he was the number two person in the palace, but as the number of people in the palace increased, he became the last one.

No, he must struggle, rise, and become His Highness’s right-hand man!

"Yes, I understand!"

After giving Xun Busan a lesson, Zhu Jun snorted, dropped the bowl and chopsticks, and left the mansion.

Wait until the middle of the day, and everything that is supposed to come will come.

There were two or three tables of people sitting in the hall, while the outer courtyard was full of tables, with the servants and guards of Prince Wu's Mansion sitting there.

Zhu Jun is sitting on the main seat, with Zhu Jingyan on his left, Li Yanxi on his right, then Li Shanren, Li Qi...

The reason why Zhu Jingyan is here is that Zhu Jun specially invited him. It is his consistent style to be a good person and send Buddha to the West!

For this, Zhu Jingyan was extremely grateful.

On the other table, sat Li Jiba's brother and sister, and Niu Wuliu's family.

Shen Dabao's family, Cai Guan, and Sunu'er also sat at the third table.

Niu Liu's family members were all ordinary people, but with so many important people sitting around them, they were all so nervous that they didn't even dare to breathe while sitting there.

Sunnu'er and Su Xiaoxiao were extremely grateful. Given their identities, what qualifications did they have to serve at the table and celebrate the New Year in the main hall?

After all, isn't it because of Zhu Jun's respect and love?

Zhu Jun raised his glass and stood up, "Today is the 30th of the New Year. I would like to say a few words. For some reason, everyone gathered in the mansion.

No matter what your status was before, from now on, you are members of my Prince Wu's Mansion and my relatives and friends, Zhu Jun.

I hope that everyone will be friendly and respectful, and that everyone will work together to live a prosperous life.

Come, let’s all drink together!”

Immediately everyone raised their glasses and said, "Thank you, His Highness King Wu!"

Zhu Jingyan was heartily happy to see that Zhu Jun had made such great progress and had the air of a master of a palace.

Li Yanxi didn't say much, and Zhu Jun didn't judge people based on their status, which was very characteristic of His Majesty.

He himself didn't like red tape, but the more he looked at Zhu Jun, the more he appreciated it.

Li Shanren also had many praises in his eyes. Looking at Zhu Jun was like seeing the young Zhu Yuanzhang in the past, especially the profile, he looked very much like that person.

Later, Zhu Jun took the wine and went to the outer hall to toast other servants and thank them for their hard work over the past year.

These servants had never received such treatment before. They were all flattered, but looking at Zhu Jun's sincere smile, they felt warm from the bottom of their hearts.

They are just slaves, so what qualifications do you have for His Highness to treat them so favorably?

Seeing this scene, Li Yanxi couldn't help but nod in praise. He couldn't help but glance at Li Shanren and found that he was also looking at him. The two of them smiled tacitly.

When Zhu Jun turned back and announced the start, everyone used their chopsticks.

The atmosphere was thick, and Zhu Jun's actions invisibly brought everyone closer.
Chapter completed!
