Lao Si and Lao Liu, who were waiting for Lao Wu in the distance, looked at Hu Xiang's performance with cold eyes, but they all felt something strange.
"Where is the sun coming out? Mr. Hu decided to start a new life in the new year?" Lao Liu chuckled softly.
"Impossible, dogs can't change from eating shit." Lao Si said flatly.
"But this dog really doesn't eat shit today." Lao Liu said with a smile.
"That's the problem." Lao Si said solemnly: "The dog doesn't eat shit anymore, what is it going to eat instead?"
"That must be something tastier than poop," Lao Liu said lightly, "You can't just want to eat poop, right?"
"Haha, you can't tell." The fourth child's smile turned cold and he lowered his voice and said, "Anyway, I always feel that something is wrong with this old dog. You have to keep an eye on him."
"Okay." Lao Liu nodded. The Jinyiwei 'Pure Clothes Sect' in the fourth brother's hand was broken, and now he can only count on his own 'Dirty Clothes Sect'.
At this time, Lao Wu and Hu Weiyong finished their pleasantries and rushed back happily. The three brothers walked side by side to Fengtian Hall.
Although the fourth and sixth children felt that something was strange, they did not disappoint the fifth child. They patted him on the shoulders, smiled and congratulated him: "Now I finally got what I wanted!"
"The medical career of Ming Dynasty depends on the fifth brother!"
"No, I can't do it alone." Lao Wu quickly pulled his fourth brother and sixth brother and said, "You have to help me, otherwise I will go bankrupt and not be able to fill the hole every year."
"I can only help you fight." The fourth child said very self-awarely: "What you want is probably our family's God of Wealth."
In fact, he didn't know how rich Lao Liu was. He only knew that the original shares he invested in Shibo Company had already made dozens of times the profit in just a few years. So the prince's salary was suspended, and he
My family's life was not affected at all.
"I beg you all." Lao Wu smiled sarcastically, but looked at Lao Liu.
"No problem, I'll give you some advice later." Lao Liu laughed. The medical system can't make money, it's a big joke. The only thing to note is that it's too ugly to eat.
"Hey, that's good." After taking Lao Liu's reassurance, Lao Wu immediately stopped worrying, and started planning with Lao Liu confidently to develop Ming's medical business.
Although the fourth child didn't quite understand it, he liked it very much, especially the way the fifth child shone.
The three brothers walked and chatted until they came to Fengtian Hall.
Then I saw green-robed officials standing in front of the palace, thousands of them...
"Hey, is it so lively?" The brothers called a busy Guanglu Temple official and asked him: "What is this for?"
"Back to Your Highness, these are the county magistrates from all provinces in the country who have come to Beijing to report on their duties. Your Majesty will have a banquet for them at Fengtian Palace at noon." The official replied hurriedly and respectfully, and then hurriedly prepared for the banquet.
"Did Father talk about this last night?" The fourth child scratched his head. "I was drunk and confused..."
"I didn't know." Lao Liu shrugged. "I was just bullying...oh no, I went to make out with Lao Qi."
"I, I'm worried about what happened today..." Lao Wu whispered: "Father didn't listen carefully to what he said. He just remembered that he asked us to come to Fengtian Palace to accompany guests today."
"Anyway, just stay with me." The fourth child laughed. The fifth and sixth children nodded and said, "Exactly, I'll accompany anyone."
The three of them passed through the magistrates and stood under the golden platform in front of Fengtian Hall.
~~
After a while, Boss Zhu appeared on the golden platform with a happy face.
After the restrained county magistrates paid their respects, Zhu Yuanzhang and Yan Yuese ordered them to stand up, Fang said: "Don't be nervous, we are the ones who should be nervous."
"..." The magistrates looked at each other, wondering what kind of medicine the emperor was selling.
"The reason is very simple. There are all kinds of civil and military officials in the world, such as prime ministers, ministers, envoys, prefects... There are no less than a hundred official positions, but you magistrates are the only ones who are called the parents of the people." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said:
"And all the people in the world are our subjects. The fate of our children is in your hands. How can I be careless when I see you?"
"Haha..." The magistrates laughed appropriately, but they felt quite satisfied that the emperor could praise him so highly.
"So we must treat you old parents to dinner, and beg you to be kind to our people." Zhu Yuanzhang said, and he really cupped his hands and said:
"Please, everyone! As 'old parents', you must love and care for the people and make decisions for the people!"
"I obey the order!" All the magistrates and counties hurriedly leaned forward to accept the order.
"Okay, get up." After Zhu Yuanzhang asked them to get up again, he pointed to the Fengtian Palace behind him and said: "But you have also seen that the Fengtian Palace has limited space. It can hold up to thirty tables and seat three hundred people for dinner.
"
"But what if there are over a thousand of you and you can't sit down?" He sighed in a pretentious manner: "I can only tolerate some of you and eat the meal standing up."
"Ah..." The county magistrates were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that they could do anything other than just a meal... They obviously didn't understand Boss Zhu's ability to make a living.
"Oh, this won't work." Boss Zhu looked confused again: "The Fengtian Temple is still too small. There are so many people who can't even stand. Some people have to stand outside the temple to eat..."
"..." In the hearts of the magistrates, thousands of grass and mud horses galloped past.
"Then who can sit and who can only stand? Who has to eat outside?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought hard again, and then asked Lao Liu under the golden stage: "King Chu, what do you think?"
"My son..." Lao Liu rolled his eyes and said to himself, "I'll just stand and watch." He is a very clever person and would rather offend the old thief than offend the magistrate of the world. He said casually: "I suggest setting up banquets in the east and west side halls. There is not enough space to match the hall.
That’s okay. It’s the first day of the Lunar New Year and our family is inviting guests to dinner. How can we let the guests eat standing up..."
"..." The magistrates and counties looked at His Highness the King of Chu who spoke for them with gratitude, and thought to themselves that it was really three people who became a tiger. What kind of monster was such a good King of Chu being rumored to be like?
"Stop pretending to be a good person here!" Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Lao Liu, ignored his suggestion and said: "We thought of it, let's distinguish it according to the ranking of your outside inspectors!"
So Boss Zhu decided to visit the top 300 magistrates and sit down to eat in the palace.
Afterwards, three hundred people stood in the hall to eat.
The remaining four hundred people could only stand outside the hall and eat...
For a time, the peaceful New Year atmosphere in front of Fengtian Hall disappeared, and all the magistrates and counties fell into a low pressure.
Those 600 magistrates from other counties were almost crying. They thought they were here to have a royal banquet to honor their ancestors, but they didn't expect that they couldn't even get into the Jinluan Palace, so they could only eat dinner outside the palace. The ancestors were almost embarrassed.
.
Those who entered the palace and ate standing up were not happy either. They had never eaten standing up before when they were so old. If this was spread back, they would definitely become the laughingstock of the county.
Those county magistrates who were able to enter the palace and sit at the table, although they were secretly happy in their hearts, saw that their colleagues looked like dead mothers, so they could only grimace and share the sorrow with their colleagues.
Lao Liu shook his head when he saw it. You have to do this all day long on New Year's Day. Aren't you afraid of not having a butthole when you give birth to a son?
