My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 239

Just after the morning court, Zhu Zhanhe was surrounded by several officials.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you sold a piece of land to Uncle Peng Cheng. Don't forget us about this kind of thing. We also bought the land of the Wangfu back then!"

Duke Ding Xu Jingchang grabbed Zhu Zhanhe's sleeve and said with a flattering expression.

"That's right, we bought no less land than Uncle Pengcheng, son, you can't favor one over another!"

The people next to him also spoke.

Like Pengcheng Bo Zhang Chang, they were tricked by Zhu Zhanhe before, and now Zhang Chang has bought the property of King Han Mansion in Beijing, so of course they want to buy it too.

"Everyone, don't embarrass me. I told Uncle Peng Cheng long ago that my mother is in charge of the property of the palace. I just sold him a favor. I really can't make decisions about the rest!"

Zhu Zhanhe bowed his hands to the surroundings, and responded with a helpless expression.

"My son, don't be humble. Who doesn't know that the King of Han is not here, you are the head of the palace, and the princess loves you the most, so as long as you speak, the princess will definitely agree!"

Xu Jingchang flattered Zhu Zhanhe one after another. Although he was the Duke of the state and Zhu Di's nephew, Xu Jingchang knew that he was far from Zhu Zhanhe, and now he was asking for help from others. Say something nice.

The others were not stupid either, and they only picked up good things to say, and they were going to praise Zhu Zhanhe to the sky.

In the end, Zhu Zhanhe seemed to be a little dizzy from the praise, and his mouth was a little loose, but in the end he said a little embarrassed: "Actually, it is not impossible to sell land, but with so many of you, my family may not have enough land? "

"My son, you are wrong. We are all sensible people. Why do you pretend to be confused? Who doesn't know that your family came to Beijing the first time and bought the most land. It is even rumored now. Except for Huangzhuang, there are only a few people around Beijing. Your palace has the most land!"

When Xu Jingchang said this, although there was a smile on his face, the corners of his mouth kept twitching, and there was distress in his eyes.

No way, it was too late for the Xu family to get the news. When they sent people to buy land in Beijing, all the better land was bought up by others, especially Hanwang Mansion bought the most. Now he can only buy it. I hope to buy a little more at a high price.

Hearing what Xu Jingchang said, Zhu Zhanhe finally stopped hesitating and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then I'll be the master for a while. You go back and ask someone to go to the palace to find my housekeeper, but at this price..."

Zhu Zhanhe stopped at the end, and then glanced at Xu Jingchang and the others.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we will definitely satisfy the palace with the price, and it will definitely not be lower than the market price!"

Xu Jingchang patted his chest and promised.

There is no way, now the land in Beijing is priceless, and they are waving around the streets with precious banknotes, but they can't find anyone who is willing to sell it. Now they have finally found Zhu Zhanhe, who has taken advantage of him, of course they must firmly grasp it. It's worth it even if you pay a little more.

"Okay, Duke Ding is really a straightforward person, so it's settled, and I will ask the palace to pick some good land for you!"

Zhu Zhanhe immediately made a decision.

Seeing that Zhu Zhanhe finally agreed, Xu Jingchang and the others were all relieved, and then there was another burst of flattery, making money, they didn't feel the slightest chill.

After finally getting rid of the entanglement of Xu Jingchang and others, Zhu Zhanhe walked to the Hall of Martial Heroes.

The Imperial City in Beijing is almost a one-to-one copy of the Imperial City in Nanjing. Even the names of the palaces are the same, but the scale is a little smaller than the Imperial City in Nanjing. If you don’t distinguish carefully, you won’t see the difference at all.

But as soon as he walked to the gate of the Hall of Martial Arts, he happened to see Zhu Zhanji walking out of the hall.

"What a coincidence, I have something to discuss with you!"

When Zhu Zhanji saw Zhu Zhanhe, he immediately stepped forward enthusiastically, pulled him aside and said.

"Brother, what's the matter with you?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked curiously.

"I heard that your family is selling land?"

Zhu Zhanji asked in a low voice.

"Brother, do you want to buy land too?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked puzzledly, you must know that Zhu Zhanji is the grandson of the emperor, and the whole of Ming Dynasty will belong to him in the future, so how can there be any need to buy any land?

"I don't need it, but someone asked me to ask, if there is any extra land in your house, how much would he like to buy."

Zhu Zhanji seemed a little embarrassed at this time, after all, it was his first time doing such a thing.

"Who with such a big face can borrow your favor?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked curiously.

"Wei Guogong Xu Qin, I have always been on good terms with him, and he has helped me before, so I can't refuse him."

Zhu Zhanji didn't hide anything, and replied directly.

"Wait, isn't Wei Guogong's family left in Nanjing? Why did he buy the land in Beijing?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked even more puzzled.

The father of Wei Guogong Xu Qin was Xu Huizu, who would rather die than surrender to Zhu Di, and finally died under house arrest.

It's just that Zhu Di didn't embarrass Xu Huizu, the eldest brother-in-law, because of Empress Xu's face. Instead, he let Xu Qin inherit the title of Wei Guogong.

But even so, the Wei Guogong family was still alienated by Zhu Di. This time when the capital was moved to Beijing, Zhu Di let Xu Qin stay in Nanjing, but brought Ding Guogong Xu Jingchang with him. This is equivalent to exile Wei Guogong’s family in Nanjing, and it will be difficult in the future. Into the core of the court.

"Although Xu Qin is in Nanjing, he still wants to come to Beijing, and their Wei Guogong family has a big business. Even if they don't come to Beijing in the future, it will not prevent them from buying a few fields in Beijing."

Zhu Zhanji explained.

Now Zhu Zhanhe finally understood, it turned out that this kid Xu Qin didn't give up, and planned to find a way to come to Beijing in the future, but it was a pity that Wei Guogong's family seemed to guard Nanjing City until the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

"Okay, since the eldest brother has come forward, I will sell a piece of land to Wei Guogong, but the price must still be based on the market price."

Zhu Zhanhe finally nodded, but he still put the ugly words to the front, after all, his brothers had to settle accounts clearly, let alone Xu Qin.

"Don't worry about that. Xu Qin's manager is in Beijing. I'll ask them to go to the palace to discuss with you tomorrow!"

Zhu Zhanji laughed. He knew that Zhu Zhanhe was short of money now. After all, Zhu Gaoxu went to Tianzhu, and the entire Han Palace was full of places to spend money.

After bidding farewell to Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanhe walked to the Hall of Martial Heroes, and saw Zhu Di was reviewing the memorial. After having a cabinet, Zhu Di's burden was much lighter, and he only needed to draw a circle on the items drawn up by the cabinet. That's it.

"Why do you have time to come to me, a big landlord?"

Hearing footsteps, Zhu Di looked up at Zhu Zhanhe and asked with a smile.

"Grandpa, what you said, I just bought a few pieces of land, how can I compare with you?"

Zhu Zhanhe said with a wry smile, he didn't expect that even Zhu Di knew about it.

"How many pieces of land? Who doesn't know now, your family's land is almost comparable to Huangzhuang."

Zhu Di put down the ink brush in his hand at this time, and said again with a hint of meaning.
