Chengguo Duke's Mansion.

"It's really strange. Duke Ding is so good. Why did you think of coming to my mansion?"

Zhu Chunchen smiled a little reluctantly, and looked at Xu Yunzhen and said, "If something else is easy to say, but if it involves the government, I'll be fine."

Since Tang Guozuo and Zhu Guobi's group of honors were ordered to be seized and executed by Emperor Chongzhen. The group of honors and relatives in Beijing, whether they are on duty or not, have no fear in their hearts.

Especially for Zhu Chunchen, the emperor's methods were too cruel. The key to killing Tang Guozuo and others, he even surrounds himself, so that among the honorary relatives, the reputation of the Duke of Chengguo's mansion was greatly affected.

Therefore, Zhu Chunchen felt alert for Xu Yunzhen's visit.

Zhu Chunchen now, whether in the Beijing Guard Governor's Office or in the court, was like a transparent person, acting very low-key, for fear of being remembered by the emperor again.

no way.

The deaths of Tang Guozuo and Zhu Guobi and other honorary relatives really scared Zhu Chunchen.

On the contrary, Liu Wenbing and Wei Shitai and other honorary relatives were trusted by Emperor Chongzhen, whether in the Beijing Wei Governor's Office or in the three major camps, they all held corresponding authority.

"Who dares to take care of the affairs of the court nowadays?"

Xu Yunzhen picked up the teacup, looked at Zhu Chunchen and said, "If you haven't won the trust of Your Majesty, it's so wrong to say more. Look at Xinlehou and the others, how comfortable it is now.

He holds an important position in the Beijing Guard Governor's Office. Although he is a job guarding the house, he is deeply favored by the emperor. I am afraid that many people will go to serve in private and worship Buddha.

Unlike us, we didn’t understand the holy intentions before, and we even had much less entry in the mansion. Cheng Guogong has been having a hard time recently, right?”

As he said that, under Zhu Chunchen's gaze, Xu Yunzhen took a sip of tea and put the teacup he held on the table.

"Just tell me the purpose."

Zhu Chunchen frowned and looked at Xu Yunzhen and said, "Don't go around here with me. If there is nothing else, I'll forgive me..."

"Don't be impatient, and the Duke of the State is so impatient now?"

Xu Yunzhen smiled, lifted his sleeves, and said, "Then I will explain my purpose. I believe the Duke of Cheng has heard of what His Majesty said in recent days and the issue of bonds issued by the State Taxation Department?"

"This matter has caused a lot of controversy in Beijing, how could I not know?"

Zhu Chunchen frowned and said, "I heard that many civil officials in the court strongly opposed this matter and submitted many memorials to advise His Majesty to take back his life.

but……"

"By the way, this is the purpose of this man."

Xu Yunzhen smiled and said, "We must support this matter that the Chinese officials in the court opposed. After all, we are the great relatives of the Ming Dynasty and are at the same time as the country.

Now that the court is facing difficulties, His Majesty wants to resolve the financial crisis, he has no choice but to take out the land under the name of the imperial village as an anchor to support the bonds sold.

If we can buy a batch of bonds when the State Taxation Department issues bonds to the public, will we win His Majesty’s trust at that time?”

Looking at Xu Yunzhen's smile-like expression, he intuition told Zhu Chunchen that this guy must have something hidden, otherwise he would never give out real money and silver in exchange for His Majesty's trust with his temperament.

After all, the title of Duke Ding was hereditary. To put it bluntly, no matter how chaotic it was under the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Ming Dynasty did not perish, it had nothing to do with him.

"Tell me why you did this."

Zhu Chunchen narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the teacup, looked at Xu Yunzhen, and then said, "Don't use excuses to others, I'll be here to excuse me."

As he said that, Zhu Chunchen took a sip of tea.

This old fox is really hard to cheat.

Xu Yunzhen cursed in his heart, then laughed and said, "That is, Duke Cheng, then I will make it clear. If this matter can be done and won the trust of Your Majesty, then we will be able to cry and show our own feelings to Your Majesty.

loyalty.

Not to mention whether you can be promoted to a half-time position, but if your Majesty allows us to go to Tianjin to raise a fleet, then there will be no problem, right?

Just a few days ago, a disciple of my husband came back from Tianjin and told that Tianjin's governor Chen Yansheng had met many Western barbarians.

Many of them are Western maritime merchants.

Your Majesty attaches great importance to the matter of opening the sea, and then Chen Yansheng is even more loyal to Your Majesty. If I was not mistaken, it would not take long before the world of Tianjin would really change."

Zhu Chunchen narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into deep thought. The emperor allowed the opening of the sea in Tianjin, but it has always been lukewarm.

In addition, there have been constant turmoil in the court in recent months, which has made few people pay attention to Tianjin. However, Xu Yunzhen, who is unemployed and has many honorary relatives in private industries, has paid a lot of attention to this area.

"Silk, porcelain, tea and other things are very popular among Western barbarians." Seeing that Zhu Chunchen was silent, Xu Yunzhen leaned forward and continued.

"I have found some news before. Just from our Ming Dynasty, if we go to Nanyang, we will make ten times the profit.

If you sail a little further, the price will be even higher.

Whether we can gain the right to speak in the court is actually not important. Only this real money is true.

If we can get the permission of His Majesty, we will cooperate with the Western barbarians in the early stage, and after we understand the corresponding chart, we can do it alone.

In this way, the Nanyang area is rich in spices, which is also expensive in our Ming Dynasty. How much profit can you get when you enter and exit?"

How many of the Ming Dynasty honorables who can inherit from generation to generation are simple characters? Perhaps they are strictly restricted by the civil servants in the court.

However, private exchanges are not comparable to civil servants.

Don’t forget that there is also a group of honors and relatives in Jinling City. Who can guarantee that there will be no private communication between honors and relatives in the north and south?

"Don't rush to do this."

A trace of splendor flashed in Zhu Chunchen's eyes, and he looked at Xu Yunzhen and said, "If you want to make a fortune in a quiet voice, it is best to listen to my words.

Since it's a show, let's do the whole show. Not only should your Majesty trust us, but you should also do this business slowly.

Don’t you know why many civil servants in the court opposed Kaihai? Just those guys in Jiangnan are not good at it.”

"If you have the words of Cheng Guogong, then I will feel relieved."

Xu Yunzhen smiled and said, "Then let's wait and see for a while. As for what to do in the future, I will listen to Cheng Gong. I will follow Cheng Gong Gong, haha..."
