Chapter 1545: Murder and Punishment
Emperor Hongzhi sighed, it was not unreasonable.
The blueprint drawn by Fang Jifan is much more attractive than the blueprint drawn by those Confucian scholars.
Emperor Hongzhi took a sip of tea slowly, and he relaxed, looked at Fang Jifan and said, "What about other lands?"
Fang Jifan then said, "Other lands are of course used as farmland. Your Majesty, this farmer is the foundation."
Emperor Hongzhi had a lot of expectations in his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, I'll leave it to you."
Fang Jifan was busy to accept the order.
He sent Emperor Hongzhi away, but someone came to report: "Wang Bushi, a scholar at the Hanlin Academy, asked to see Duke Qi."
Fang Jifan snorted coldly with his hands behind his back: "Is it the one Wang Bushi who claims to be very rich? I heard that this guy has made a fortune, so I can't control him anymore."
"That's right, but... but when he was outside, he told everyone that he could earn some money, and the young master would like to give him a bite of food."
"Hey..." Fang Jifan thrust his face and said lightly: "Call in."
Wang Bushi was invited in. Although he was a big man, he was full of jewels and his aura was even more powerful than following the vassal state.
After Wang Bushi came in, he immediately took off his sunglasses and saluted Fang Jifan: "I have met Duke Qi."
Fang Jifan sat with his legs raised and took a sip of tea.
In fact, Fang Jifan’s impression of Wang Bushi was not bad.
In Fang Jifan's heart, he really wanted to be polite to him.
It’s just a pity that Fang Jifan knew a truth after more than ten years of new career.
Being a human being... you must not be polite to others. The more you are polite to others, the more others are afraid.
Fang Jifan's nostrils were facing the sky and said, "What's the matter?"
Wang Bushi didn't care about this.
Well, that's what Duke of Qi is like.
He said: "A few days ago, the Xiaguan purchased some land from various prefectures, but... although it has not been converted yet, from the current trend, it is probably 20 to 30 million acres."
Fang Jifan: "..."
Fang Jifan smiled slightly and said nothing: "Oh, congratulations, congratulations."
"It's just that the Xiaguan has been thinking about it. It's useless to give it to Xiaguan. Over the years, Xiaguan has received the care of the Duke of Qi, so... it might as well... if the Duke of Qi sees something he likes, he will take it."
When Fang Jifan heard this, his face suddenly became a little cold, and he slapped the table and said, "What are you saying? Fang Jifan is always kind and generous, knowledgeable and rational, and takes the world as his responsibility. If you say such words, wouldn't it mean that Fang Jifan is forcing him to take over? Do you think you are so trash like a dog, and you will be extremely slutty. I will punish you and confiscate your 20 million acres of land."
Wang Bushi: "..."
After Wang Bushi was silent for a moment, he finally made his mind a little normal again and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, the master should punish you hard. The next month, the official will send the money and grain books to the West Mountain. The official realized that he was wrong."
Fang Jifan felt like he was hitting the cotton with one punch, and he suddenly became bored and slapped him lazyly: "Well, I know, get out."
Wang Bushi showed joy on his face, bowed again, and then said goodbye and left.
...
Looking at Wang Bushi's back, Fang Jifan was a little confused.
To be honest... this little clever guy is really good at seizing the opportunity.
A moment later, Wang Jinyuan heard the news and hurriedly came: "Young Master..."
He bowed to the ground and said happily: "The villain heard that Wang Bushi wanted to give him 20 million acres of land in Xishan. Wang Bushi should have much money, but... it was so strange. He was in a hurry to buy land. The land he bought finally came to Xishan, just to curry favor with the young master... Master, you... you are so famous. Everyone is bathing in your kindness. You have something good to send. You are so amazing..."
"Idiot, think about it again, why did he give him land?" Fang Jifan didn't raise his eyes, and still raised his legs and took a sip of tea.
Wang Jinyuan then began to think that human potential is infinite, especially under the pressure of the young master.
Soon, Wang Jinyuan said: "I heard that he has purchased a lot of land. What is he? He is just a mere Hanlin lecturer. Can he keep so much land? Even if he keeps it, his children and grandchildren will not be able to keep it from now on. Instead of doing so, it is better to give this big head to the young master. On the one hand, it can avoid these troubles, and on the other hand, it is to give the young master a favor. In this way, the other land he has on hand can be taken into his pocket with peace of mind."
Fang Jifan sneered and said, "Is it just because of this? Let me remind you again, at present, only the capital and Baoding have new cities."
Wang Jinyuan's eyes lit up suddenly: "Oh, the villain understands. He said he was giving away 20 million acres of land, but he knew that if the young master had land, the new city would surely bloom everywhere. How much profit would there be? The so-called "will not allow others to sleep soundly under the couch. Because the benefits inside were too great, he wanted to make such a fortune with the young master. He must be uneasy when he collected the land. These 20 million acres were considered a benefit to the young master. Only the remaining land could be safely followed by the young master to build a mansion. This dog is so unlucky, he dared to sell his house."
Fang Jifan finally smiled and said, "Let him build it, it's okay. We will accept these 20 million acres of land with a smile. You can find someone to clean up Wang Bushi's land in some time. Oh, no, don't you have to find someone. There is a ready-made one. Isn't that dog thing Deng Jian here?"
Wang Jinyuan laughed: "Young Master is really wise."
Fang Jifan suddenly said angrily: "Yingming is wise, but you, Wang Jinyuan, have also secretly acquired a lot of land in secret these days."
Wang Jinyuan: “…”
"I...I..."
Fang Jifan gritted his teeth and said, "How much did he collect?"
"The villain... how much money can I have? I usually rely on salary and bounties, but I only get 300,000 taels of silver in the whole year. Although I saved some savings, the villain is very poor. The young master... I bought some land, but it is only a few hundred thousand acres. The villain has a large population... The villain has old people above and small people below..."
Fang Jifan wanted to beat him.
This dog dares to cry and be poor, as if he has treated him badly.
However, this time Fang Jifan's resurrection caused many people around Fang Jifan who learned the news early to make a fortune. I am afraid that not only Wang Jinyuan and Deng Jian, the dog-good guy, have also bought land for themselves secretly.
"Young master, the villain has something to report."
Fang Jifan knew that he was deliberately trying to change the topic and was about to scold him.
But Wang Jinyuan said, "The son of Liu Huiwen was a juren before. This time his father was imprisoned, because the Liu family was in panic. But since the trial of the Third Division, his son has begun to become active and contacted some people everywhere, saying that he would gather many gentry and scholars to write letters together... Just yesterday, his family posted a post and sent hundreds of copies to many gentry and scholars, saying that they would discuss major events together... They would gather together early tomorrow morning..."
This was important news, and Fang Jifan's eyes suddenly turned cold.
The trial of the three departments did give the Liu family a glimmer of hope.
I heard that there was no result in these trials, which gave the Liu family some confidence.
The gentry are full of anger now.
Many people had gone bankrupt before, but the remaining gentry was still in panic.
In their opinion... Liu Huiwen is like a sword. Although he did not stab the Chinese Fang Jifan, at least... this is their last weapon.
Coupled with the instigation of the Liu family, it seems... that I also want to use this to put some pressure on the temple.
This is actually just a reason.
The fundamental reason is that gentry and scholars are full of resentment and need to find a hole to vent.
Fang Jifan's face suddenly became tense, and his face was full of murderous intent: "This dog named Liu is going to murder me. This assassination taught me to make such a big fortune. I was very easy-going and uncontested and did not want to care about them more, but they dared to be arrogant. It's great, so it's great. I'll teach them to die tomorrow without a place to bury them."
Wang Jinyuan cheered up, and he knew in his heart that the young master was going to bully people again. He was shocked: "What are the young master's instructions?"
Fang Jifan's lips curled, and a meaningful smile appeared. He said slowly: "I have no instructions, I'll just give this young master a list tomorrow."
Wang Jinyuan immediately said with emotion: "Young Master is really hero..."
"Your uncle Ying!" Fang Jifan got angry and stood up and kicked him: "I didn't say anything, you're wise, you can try another word."
Wang Jinyuan was beaten, but fortunately he was already thick-skinned and felt happy. This was his young master. If it weren't like this, it wasn't the original version. He quickly nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "The villain should die, damn, the villain should be slick, it is really an insult to the Fang family... The villain knew his mistake, the young master was very careful and disliked such flattery. There are a few people in the world who don't like to listen to compliments, but the young master... He was right, sat upright, and only knew that his honest words were unpleasant. This is what the villain admired the young master the most."
Fang Jifan's body shook, hey, this is a bit interesting. If you don't succeed, you have to remember it. You may not be sure to use it in the future. As expected, there must be my teacher. Although I have achieved success in my studies, I need to know that a person's long life is the process of learning.
There is a road in the mountains of books, and diligence is the path, and the sea of knowledge is endless and hard to make a boat. This famous quote by Mr. Han Yu is actually a portrayal of someone in our place.
Fang Jifan's anger disappeared, but his eyes were narrowed. A trace of murderous intent flashed through his eyes and said, "Then let the Liu surname disappear completely tomorrow. Since they are tired of living, they will not only kill people, but also kill their hearts!"

Another colleague died suddenly. Alas... Tiger was so worried. He tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. He got up late. I'm sorry.
