Daming: Huddle in Beiping and be the magistrate of the county Chapter 219: Hand over one and a half million taels! Latest website: Lao Zhu waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, we will talk about this later, then
Where are the King of Goryeo and his son Wang Chang? We need to take a closer look at what this unfed wolf cub looks like..."
Zhu Di said: "Dad, Wang Yu and Wang Chang are waiting outside the palace gate right now!"
Lao Zhu said: "Bring him in!"
"Obey!"
A waiter responded and walked out quickly.
Soon, two people wearing royal robes, one large and one small, walked in timidly...
"The king of the small country of Fanbang, Wang You, meets with His Majesty the Ming Emperor..."
Originally, Lao Zhu wanted to curse Wang You, the King of Goryeo.
However, after seeing the trembling looks of Goryeo King Wang You and his son, they immediately lost interest.
After questioning a few words, they asked Wang Yu and his son to be taken away first.
Lao Zhu frowned and asked: "How can you dare to rebel against the Ming Dynasty when you are as timid as a mouse? Is it possible that the nobles of Goryeo are very bold?"
Below, Zhu Di smiled coquettishly and said, "Dad, I don't know. King Wang You of Goryeo must be scared!"
"Are you scared?"
Both Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao couldn't help but look puzzled.
Zhu Di explained: "Dad, brother, I was in Wangjing of Goryeo and asked King Wangyou of Goryeo to watch it in person, the process of being cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
In addition, there were several scribes under his command who explained the "Da Gao" written by my father himself to those Goryeo dignitaries.
As for King Wangyou of Goryeo, he also learned it..."
Hearing this, Zhu Biao's face was full of astonishment, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Goryeo King Wang You and a group of Goryeo dignitaries faced off against this black-hearted guy named Lao Si, which could be regarded as a punishment for them.
As for Lao Zhu, a trace of complacency flashed across his face.
"Very good, you bastard has some skills, but if you only rely on our "Da Gao" to govern Goryeo's royal capital and those cities near the sea, there are still some shortcomings!
We still need some talented officials!"
Zhu Di's face lit up and he quickly said: "Dad, when I went to Korea, I also brought thirty students from poor families with me from Beiping Academy.
Although these students don't have much talent, they still won't make any big mistakes because they often work as small officials in the Changshi Division of the Boy's Mansion, the wharf, the shops, and the yamen of Beiping Mansion, and manage the King of Goryeo!" Lao Zhu took a deep look at Zhu Di.
"So, you have already prepared for this?"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly explained with a smile: "Dad, I misunderstood. Before, my child just thought that with more and more shops and workshops in the house, the scribes in the house were too busy, and he wanted the academy to train
Some.
I didn’t expect that Gao Li would mess with the child without mercy..."
Before Zhu Di could finish speaking, Lao Zhu from above suddenly asked: "How much money can Goryeo earn from doing business with your Prince Yan's Mansion in a year?"
"Dad..."
Zhu Di was shocked.
After coming back to his senses, he smiled bitterly in his heart. Guo Qing's guess was indeed correct. His father would definitely not let go of the silver earned from trade.
"Dad, the goods I get from Goryeo are all at the lowest price. After they are shipped to Yingtian, they can be sold to those wealthy merchants at a price increase of two or three times...
And the goods collected from the Ming Dynasty can be sold to the powerful people in Goryeo for a price increase of one or two times... As long as there are no accidents in the sea, the money earned in a year is almost three to four million taels of silver!" "Three to four million taels?"
Hearing this, Zhu Biao's eyes flashed with surprise!
Lao Zhu's eyelids trembled slightly, "We will share two million taels of silver earned every year!"
Zhu Di's eyes widened, "Dad, baby..."
Old Zhu looked at Zhu Di quietly, "Why do you, a small Yan Prince, need so much silver?"
Zhu Di was immediately frightened, but when he thought of giving away two million taels of silver, he trembled with distress.
"Dad, although I earn three to four million taels of silver, I still spend a lot of money every year.
When I was in Goryeo, I had already promised the soldiers, generals and officials stationed in Goryeo that I would reward them with 30% of the silver I earned every year.
Also, I plan to use the money I earn to hire more civilian craftsmen in Beiping Prefecture, build more cement roads, build two elementary schools in every prefecture and county in Beiping Prefecture, and build a shipyard..." Lao Zhu remained expressionless and continued: "We remember that your Zhangjiawan Wharf can now earn you one hundred thousand taels of silver a month...and the sugar workshop you built in partnership with the Shen family. Now,
You can make a lot of money in a year...
Your farm in Beiping Prefecture, as well as the academy, wool workshop, and cotton workshop can all make a lot of money now...
As the great prince of Ming Dynasty, why do I become more and more stingy as I make more and more money?"
Zhu Di still looked aggrieved.
Zhu Biao on the side couldn't stand it.
"Dad, the fourth child and Yanshanwei have to support him!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, Dad, the child still has to feed Yanshanwei!"
Lao Zhu glanced at Zhu Biao, then continued to look at Zhu Di, and said softly: "Now that you have placed your Yanshan Guards in Korea, how will your Beiping Mansion be guarded?"
Zhu Di's face immediately stiffened.
However, that is two million taels of silver.
"Dad, two million taels of silver is only 50%, plus the 30% promised to the soldiers, generals and officials, the child only has 20% left!..."
If you take away another 10% from Guo Qing, then leave him with the remaining 10%!
Lao Zhu snorted coldly, "Those officials' salaries are already enough for them to live a wealthy life, why do they need so many rewards?"
Zhu Di said quickly: "Dad, those soldiers, generals and officials are far away from home, far away from their wives, children and children. In Goryeo, they have to guard against those Goryeo dignitaries all the time. The children certainly need to give them some hope."
