When Lao Qi left happily, the prince gave Lao Liu a "hard" blow to his brain.
"Oh, it hurts..." Lao Liu held his head and whined. It was indeed a severe punishment.
"You, why are you bullying Lao Qi all day long? You can't change someone else... No, you can't just bully others?" the prince laughed and scolded.
"I don't bully anyone, so I just deal with him." Lao Liu said in a dull voice.
"What exactly are you two having?" the prince asked curiously.
"Don't ask, asking is just a matter of deep hatred!" Lao Liu waved his hand, full of anger.
"Alas..." The prince sighed, changed the subject and asked, "Why are you back? The audit didn't go well?"
"The audit went well, but the person died." Lao Liu told the prince what happened gloomily:
"Obviously, it was Wu Liang who had people pass poison pills to Fatty Yang. Fatty Yang took the poison pills and yelled for the executioner to put on the iron and whip. He deliberately wanted to frame us with his own death."
"Then did you torture him?" The prince frowned slightly and said with his hands behind his back: "Yang Wei was a veteran of my father's time in He County, and he can barely be regarded as a hero of Conglong. If he is injured, someone will definitely borrow it.
I'm trying to blame you two, and you can't explain it."
"Fortunately, we are interrogating in a civilized manner." Lao Liu said happily: "Not only are there no injuries, there are not even any bruises."
"Really?" The prince looked at Lao Liu in disbelief. This guy had been so cruel to his younger brother, and how could he be polite to a minor official?
"How dare you fool big brother with this kind of thing?" Lao Liu said sternly, "Am I so confused?"
"Yeah." The prince nodded and said, "That's okay. If you don't have an excuse, you won't be afraid. Instead, you can use that person's death to make a fuss."
"Why bother with all that?" Lao Liu gestured and said, "It must be the one surnamed Wu. Just arrest him, beat him up and then interrogate him. If you don't say anything, beat him up again."
"What if he dies again? He is a god in the Jilongshan Heroes Temple!" The prince suddenly shook his head and said: "Moreover, his brother is still commanding the navy on Chongming Island. If we catch him, what will his brother do?
reaction?"
"Okay." Lao Liu just had a taste for words. He knew that even the old father couldn't do whatever he wanted to everyone.
"In short, after finding this step, it's enough." The prince led Lao Liu to Qianqing Palace and whispered: "I will take you to report to Father Ming. What to do next, he has to come.
Certainly."
"Hmm. The water here is too deep. Brother is afraid that I won't be able to grasp it." Lao Liu nodded understandingly.
"You kid." The prince pointed at him helplessly, hugged his shoulders and laughed.
~~
In the Qianqing Palace, the tableware has been set.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw Lao Liu coming in with the prince, he laughed and scolded: "Young man is here to eat for food again."
"I'll leave as soon as I'm done." Lao Liu rolled his eyes.
"Don't leave. Are you talking to me like this?"
"Have you ever talked to your son like this?"
"Okay, okay..." Seeing that the two men were quarreling with each other as soon as they met, the prince quickly dissuaded them and said: "It's rare to have a meal together, so please don't say a few words."
As he said this, he said to Lao Liu: "You must respect your elders."
Then he said to Boss Zhu: "You must love your children."
All I have to do is tell them directly that their father is no longer a father and his son is no longer a son.
Only then did the sixth child sit down and compete with Boss Zhu for food, which made him angry again.
But after this happened too many times, the prince also discovered that although his father cursed him a lot, as long as the sixth child was around, he could always have an extra bowl of rice.
Maybe you can only enjoy the food by grabbing it.
~~
After the meal, Boss Zhu leaned on the back of his chair, holding his chubby belly, and listened to Lao Liu's report on the accounting status of the past few days.
When he heard that a total of three million yuan of supplies had been embezzled and resold, he finally became furious and said with a face: "They dare to embezzle my money? We will strip them of their skin and grass!"
"Father skinned them, who will build my ship?" Zhu Zhen asked.
"Well..." Zhu Yuanzhang stopped talking. He had already heard from the prince how much money Shibosi made. And the money earned could be completely controlled by himself without going through the court!
What? I made an agreement with Lao Liu before that the Shipping Company will be responsible for its own profits and losses, and all the money earned will be his?
'That's right, but even he belongs to me, so of course his money is also our money!' Boss Zhu thought confidently.
Poor Lao Liu didn't know that he had been plotted by his shameless father again, and he still tried his best to persuade him: "Dad, the reason why Japanese pirates always come back is because our Japanese navy preparers actually 'connect Japanese waters'."
division'."
"So to eliminate the Japanese invasion and protect our sea territory, we have to rely on our fleet of ships. But our ships are not good enough. We have to build ships, big ships, in order to smash all those monsters and monsters into rubbish!"
"Isn't it your idea to have Bao Shipyard?" Boss Zhu nodded and said, "Okay, Bao Shipyard is under the jurisdiction of the Municipal Shipping Department, and you can do whatever you want with those people."
"Uh..." Lao Liu choked. He didn't expect the old thief to agree so readily. He thought that with the old thief's anti-corruption temper, he would have to spend a lot of words to convince him.
As everyone knows, old thieves are very flexible. If they say they embezzled twenty taels, they will skin them and remove the grass. But if there are not enough people to kill, they will not skin them first and let them work in shackles.
The old thief was so happy, but it made Lao Liu suspicious. He always felt that he had no good intentions. He asked tentatively: "Are there any conditions?"
"What conditions? No." Boss Zhu laughed and said, "My devotion to my son is unconditional."
"Thank you." Lao Liu said doubtfully.
"However, we will not move the Marquis of Jiangyin and Jinghai." Zhu Yuanzhang changed the topic again.
"Understood." Lao Liu nodded. "It was my father who put me on the altar. It's not a good idea to drag me down a few years later. It seems that you, the emperor, are too stubborn."
"Fart!" Boss Zhu glared at him. In fact, he was used to him being so disrespectful to him. He paused and said seriously: "If you have proof, we will pull him down right now and smash him to pieces! But it's not like you didn't catch him.
Do you have any evidence? We can't just deal with the hero like this, or we will be scolded by my old brother."
"But you are different." Boss Zhu smiled slyly and said to his son: "If we don't do anything, if my son fights with him, it won't be considered bullying."
"Understood." Zhu Zhen nodded happily without being pretentious. After being Boss Zhu's son for so many years, he had already realized that he was being used as a gunman.
But his gun is very expensive!
"But my son has thin arms and legs. If he fights with two brothers who have been famous for a long time, my father must give him another weapon to defend himself." Lao Liu said with a smile.
"What weapon?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flickered.
"Cannon! 'Cannon, let's blast his mother'!" Lao Liu said loudly.
