Lord Fourth, Madam Has Tricked You Again

Chapter 705: Buying jewellery to make a woman happy

For the next three days, the prince was talking about selling officials day and night.

Whoever made him owe too much, his minions couldn't pay it off.

Seeing that the thirteenth master was paid by the fourth master for help.

The tenth master was still paid by the eighth master and the ninety master.

The most unbelievable thing is that the honest and charming San Ye was actually paid back by Kangxi.

But the prince, the temperament, none of the servants dared to pay him back or lend him money.

Because he usually misrepresents a lot of money from his officials.

Sometimes under the guise of borrowing money, but never repaid it.

Who would dare to help him, wishing to hide far away.

Fortunately, in the Qing Dynasty, there were still a lot of turtles, so poor that only money was left.

In addition to those merchants, I want to be an official in the family.

Just like officials who are incorruptible, the poor at home only have a reputation, and I can't wait for a business at home.

Or they may be forced to fish some oil and water, and finally begin to decay.

Therefore, the prince sold ten official positions within three days.

It's not sold to salt merchants, or to cloth merchants and pharmacists.

In the end, a total of 1.1 million taels of silver were sold.

Not only helped him pay off the debts owed by the court.

He also paid off the external debts for him.

There is still a surplus of tens of thousands of taels of silver left, but this business is doing well.

The debt-free and light-weight prince only wanted to relax, but did not expect the future.

If he is free, he is still thinking about giving the Fourth Master a trip.

He called several officials under the door who really owed money, and ran to Kangxi's residence, kneeling and crying.

That's it. After hearing this, the Eighth Master also joined in the fun.

Order people to go to the Qing Palace, kneeling and crying likewise.

Moreover, people staged a farce of suicide.

However, it is not waiting for the farce to begin.

Wei Dongting, a great red man in front of Kangxi, really couldn't bear the debt and hanged himself at home!

Early the next morning, Kangxi could no longer turn a blind eye.

He called all the princes and ministers to go outside the palace.

The so-called Daqi refers to officials of rank 4 and above, all standing outside the gate of Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi was sitting on the steps, supported by the yellow Luogai umbrella by the minions, looking down at the courtiers underneath.

Liang Jiugong said with his throat: "Early dynasty, rise to dynasty!"

The ministers began to kneel.

Upon seeing this, Kangxi did not yell, but said like Hong Zhong: "Under normal circumstances, I would not call you up. But what happened recently is really outrageous!"

Hearing this, one by one, no one would dare to get up, for fear that they would be named after a while.

"It's just to recover the debts. Ten elder brothers appeared on the streets to sell property and flog the court order officer. Officials were crying poor in our Qianqing Palace. Even Wei Dongting, who had accompanied me to pacify San Francisco and recover Taizhou, was unable to pay the debts. I committed suicide. I would like to ask you what you thought of the national treasury when borrowing money. You are the citizens of the Qing Dynasty, and the national treasury is the root of the Qing Dynasty!"

As soon as this was said, the ministers buried their heads lower.

Kangxi glanced at the one with the black hat down.

Directly named: "Old ten, you, as a elder brother, owe so much money to the treasury, what did you do?"

"Back to Huang Ama, the children have already paid off!" Ten princes replied aggrievedly.

"I don't care if you pay it off or not, you just answer me, what did you do with the money, this time if it wasn't for the fourth child to recover the treasury, do you still owe it?"

"How can I borrow money? I have to take care of the expenses of the mansion. I should be more decent, so I can't lose your face. Moreover, I don't pay it back by myself, but borrow money everywhere. Yes." Shi Ye frowned back.

"A year is nearly twenty thousand taels of salary. Your mother gave you a lot of money during his lifetime. I and she also gave you a few pieces of Zhuangzi. You are still crying poor here! Speaking of shame, what else is more than It would be even more embarrassing to be a seller on the streets of the capital, and to slap the court commander. You have read all these years for nothing."

"Erchen can't read books originally, but some people can read more, and they owe more than their sons?" Shi Ye said angrily.

Finally, he glared at the back of San Ye in the front row.

"Who are you talking about here!" Kangxi's voice became louder.

"Third brother, didn't he owe 400,000 taels of silver? That's much more than that of your princes. Not only did you not mention him, you also made an exception to pay him back with your own money. Your princes pooled money to repay it without any effort. You worry about it a little bit, but you are still talking about children here." Shiye said with his mouth flat.

That looks really like a son complaining in front of the old father.

Wronged Baba narrated the pitiful way the old father was partial to his brother.

"What are you like, I'm ashamed to ask me, I will tell you in front of the big guy today. Three elder brothers have gathered a group of well-learned scholars and compiled dozens of books. Among them, "Gu Jin "Book Collection" covers everything from astronomy to geography, including people, animals, insects, literature, music, etc. There is also a book on astronomy, mathematics, music and theory, which has also been compiled and will be printed soon. "

The printing at this time was not as good as the modern one, but it was much stronger than before, and it belonged to movable type printing.

It replaces traditional copying or printing plates that cannot be reused by using movable metal or clay blocks.

The method of movable type printing is to first make the positive negative text model of the single characters, then select the single characters according to the manuscript, arrange them in the dial, and print with ink.

After printing, remove the font and save it for reuse in the next typesetting.

"In the past, he had always spent his own money to compile books. It was really impossible, so he explained the reason to me. Not only will I have to pay him back the money, I will also ask the Ministry of Household to allocate money to him every month. He is dedicated to literary works."

"Look at you again. You will be wandering around in the capital all day long, either buying jewelry to make women happy, or buying a place to listen to theaters. I heard that you also bought two theaters in the capital. You want to be in theaters all your life. What's the matter with staying inside! I am ashamed to be on par with the third child now, I haven't asked you yet, what is the crime of whipping the court commander that day!"

At this time, the ten masters were silenced by Kangxi.

Originally, he was uneasy and felt that Kangxi was partial.

I'm all right now, I'm afraid I will be punished.

Where is the confidence to speak?

"Huang Ama, the tenth brother is this temperament, please forgive him this time." Jiu Ye raised his head and spoke for Shi Ye.

"Fuck, he must be allowed to stay in the clan man's house for three months!" Kangxi ordered directly.

"Huang Ama, my son is wrong, and I must learn from my third brother in the future!" Shi Ye heard that he was going to the clan's mansion, and he couldn't straighten his back.

Kangxi was really easy to feel soft about his son.

But it's also for the kind that has been around since childhood, or the kind that is promising.

Kangxi didn't have any resignation at all about the straw bag like Shi Ye.
