Chapter 428 Zhou Chen returns to Beijing! Wool is a good thing!

Jinling imperial capital.

The new law on examination was successfully implemented.

With the presidency of Chen Qiao, the Right Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the assistance of Jian Yi, the Minister of Personnel, the implementation of the new law was not hindered too much.

Zhu Gaoxu, the prince of Han, only needs to take charge of the overall situation and solve some gentry who are not very eyebrow.

However, a person's sudden return to Beijing brought considerable trouble.

This person is Zhou Chen, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, and the Prince of Han has always been optimistic about the financial and taxation talents.

Because of the sheep herding plan proposed by Zhu Gaoxu, Zhou Chen was ordered to go to the border of Peking to preside over the implementation of the sheeping plan.

However, because of His Majesty's victory in the Northern Expedition, the Ola tribe, who originally intended to spy on the Central Plains, was directly beaten to the death of the tribe and the race. Even the Northern Expedition Army made a concerted effort to directly kill the entire northern desert grassland and recover the Lingbei Province in one fell swoop!

Since that's the case, the shepherd plan has no meaning.

After all, the imperial court recaptured the Lingbei Province and established the General Secretary in Lingbei. Naturally, it was necessary to follow the example of the former Yuan Dynasty to govern Lingbei. Then it would not implement this "Sheep Shepherd Plan" and destroy the ecological environment of the Mongolian grasslands by itself. Wouldn't that shoot yourself in the foot?

Therefore, the Shepherd Plan was urgently stopped by His Majesty the Emperor.

Zhou Chen was very embarrassed at this moment. After all, he had already done a lot of work in the early stage and purchased a large number of wool from the grassland.

Relying on the strong financial resources of the Ministry of Revenue and the strong support of Xia Yuanji, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhou Chen could be said to have experienced the pleasure of the rich spending money, smashing the wool into a shortage of goods recognized by the tribes and ethnic groups on the grassland, and they all sold it to the Ming Dynasty at high prices through mutual markets.

In this way, the first step of the shepherd plan is successful.

The price of wool soared. Nomadic barbarians will naturally give up raising war horses and raise various goats and sheep in large quantities when they see it profitable.

Zhou Chen needs to wait for time, then take the second step, and then spend money to increase the price of goats, so the shepherd plan can basically be completed.

At the same time, during this waiting period, he was also buying wool. No matter whether it was a Mongolian barbarian or not, as long as you take the high-end wool to the market, you can sell it at a high price!

What Zhou Chen wants is to let the barbarians of the grassland achieve such common sense. As long as you raise sheep, you can make huge profits and tempt them to raise sheep wildly through profits!

After several months, the shepherd plan was implemented very smoothly.

After all, as long as you are rich enough and you can make it hard with money, nothing is wrong!

And the feeling of using money and food to calculate a country is really fascinating.

Zhou Chen never thought that one day he would be able to defeat a country with money and food economy like Guan Zhong, the sage prime minister of all ages!

If this great plan is really done, then Zhou Chen will be destined to be well-known for his successors and will be remembered forever!

However, just when everything was ready, Zhou Chen was completely stunned by the imperial edict from His Majesty.

Damn it, a lot of money has been spent, and the purchased wool has piled up like a mountain. You fuckingly told me that the plan was terminated and I won’t continue to do it?

Then I, Zhou Chen, have become a sucker and a scapegoat?

After all, this project cost the imperial court a lot of money, but his mother's failure was not enough. Then Zhou Chen not only failed to do so, but he was guilty of his crime!

Zhou Chen was labeled as a Han Wang party member. Once he could not fill in the huge amount of money spent in the early stage, Zhou Chen would be impeached and killed by those gentry and become a tragic victim!

Although the sheeping plan was proposed by King Zhu Gaoxu of Han, the emperor was the one who finally decided to implement the sheeping plan.

However, His Majesty the Emperor will not make mistakes, and even if he makes a mistake, he will not admit it.

As for His Highness the King of Han, if you want him to admit his mistakes on his own, it would be better to wipe his neck!

So, Zhou Chen was panicked. Since the Shepherd Plan was urgently stopped, he was in panic all day long and was extremely depressed.

It was not until His Highness of the Han Dynasty returned to the capital that Zhou Chen hurriedly arranged the work and then rushed back to the capital without stopping.

What a solution? If His Highness the King of Han does not save him, Zhou Xun will undoubtedly die.

But Zhou Chen was just the head of the Ministry of Revenue after all, and after returning to Beijing, he was not qualified to attend court. He could only turn to his immediate superior, Xia Yuanji, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

After listening quietly to his little brother's complaints, Lao Xia took him directly to find the culprit. The prince of Han, who was dealing with government affairs at this moment.

After all, this "Sheep Shepherd Plan" was proposed by you, Zhu Gaoxu, and Zhou Chen is also your Zhu Gaoxu's hardcore Han Wang Party. Now he is about to face a disaster because of your Zhu Gaoxu. You will not fail to save him, right?

However, Old Xia was very smart, and he also invited Jin Zhong, Minister of War and Jian Yi, Minister of Personnel.

After all, the three giants have always had good friends and the governance philosophy is the same, so everything should be advanced and retreated together.

The Shepherd Plan has caused too much deficit in the Ministry of Revenue. If this hole cannot be filled, Xia Yuanji may also be implicated.

Although Lao Xia didn't care much about this, he cared about money and food very much.

No matter what method you, King of Han, use this huge sum of money, you have to make up for it!

After listening to Xia Yuanji's request quietly, Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Zhou Chen, who was full of decadence, and was immediately amazed and crying.

He thought something big happened, so the three giants came together, but the result was just because of such a small thing.

"Hengru, you are still too young and you can't get enough time to cultivate Qi!"

"What a big deal, are you so decadent?"

When the three giants looked at each other, Zhou Chen's eyes lit up and his face was full of hope.

"His Royal Highness, does he still have a chance to turn things around?"

"Yes!" Zhu Gaoxu took a leisurely sip of tea and said with a smile: "You can continue to buy wool. If you can collect as much as you want, the hole will be filled sooner or later..."

Everyone: "????"

What?

Continue to acquire?

I'll buy you uncle!

Do you think this hole is not big enough, right?

If you continue to pay for money to buy wool, don’t say that Zhou Chen will definitely die, Xia Yuanji will also resign!

And the most important thing is that if you take the money from the court to do such meaningless things, it is even more uncomfortable than killing him, Xia Yuanji!

"His Highness, the Sheep Herding Plan has been stopped by the emperor. It is meaningless to continue to buy wool. Instead, it is not easy to spend money to buy those useless wools, which will only increase the financial burden of the court. There is no money in the treasury, Your Highness..."

Unexpectedly, Lao Xia began to cry for poverty on a daily basis.

Zhu Gaoxu felt a little headache when he heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand and interrupted, "No, who told you that those wools are useless?"

"Yes, those wools have a fishy smell, so no one uses them in the Central Plains. As long as the odor is solved, these wools are excellent warm materials, and the clothes made of them are more warmer than cotton clothes!"

Four people: "!!!"

hiss……

Remove the smell of smell!

There is indeed no disadvantage to wool!

After the four of them were a little stunned, they instantly reacted and looked at King Zhu Gaoxu, Han, with fiery eyes.

If he really had a way to remove the smell of the wool, then the wool would not only increase the court's financial income, but also make warmer clothes. By then, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty would no longer be trapped by the times when they fought in all directions!

This wool is a great thing that can be achieved in one fell swoop!

Lao Xia took a deep breath and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, Your Highness, I dare to ask about this method to remove the smell of mutton, you..."

"I can give it to you, but you three need to agree to one thing!"

Zhu Gaoxu showed a kind smile, which made the three giants feel a little scared.

"I dare to ask your highness, what's going on?"

"Slave trade!"
