Chapter 1512: Eat and drink spicy food
Emperor Hongzhi nodded and expressed his approval.
If others say this, Emperor Hongzhi will inevitably think that this person must be a flatterer and boastful person.
But Fang Jifan said he wanted to go through fire and water, and then died, but Emperor Hongzhi still believed it quite.
Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood and shut down his ministers, left Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, and asked about the business carefully. He tried hard to understand the operating principle of the business, and couldn't help but admire it.
Many people just think that people exchange goods for silver, or dig out grain from the ground for money, and even more, they make money by looting, but who would have thought that setting standards would make continuous money?
"This business road is becoming more and more interesting." Emperor Hongzhi smiled, then looked at Fang Jifan and said, "How did the Qing family come up with it?"
Fang Jifan said: "My son is by Your Majesty's side, and he is influenced by his eyes. How can he not be enlightened? My Emperor Saint..."
Emperor Hongzhi hurriedly pressed his hand: "Stop it, let's ask again, my troops will ask." He shook his head helplessly.
Emperor Hongzhi then said, "I think about it carefully now. The reason why you can do this transaction is nothing more than... it is just to use people's trust. Merchants will inevitably have many inconveniences in transactions and it is difficult to easily generate trust. Therefore, they have spent a lot of time and energy to bargain or intrigue. You have established standards, purchased widely, and finally distributed goods at fair prices. In essence, merchants trust you. The prince said just now that the purpose of the business is to bring all the cooperative merchants to make money and make money together. If you have meat to eat, you must try your best to let them eat meat. This... is the real business path. Business path is not a cunning technique. It is still credit."
Emperor Hongzhi laughed: "This credit is worth ten thousand gold. It can be seen that the prince is much more stable than before. In fact, it is not like this to be the emperor. If everyone does not get any benefits from the emperor, the country and the country will be broken. To make people loyal to the emperor, people will live and work in peace and make them believe that if they have wronged, the emperor can make them suffer. If they encounter bandits, the emperor can fight them and keep them safe. If they encounter disasters, the emperor can issue an order to provide disaster relief and not let them starve to death. Only by letting the subjects believe in these things, this peaceful and prosperous era is not far away, and this emperor will be a good emperor."
Zhu Houzhao seemed unnatural and nodded repeatedly: "What the father said is."
Emperor Hongzhi looked at him: "Why did you see you cautiously? Why, I am afraid of breaking your promise? Don't worry, just do it well, and the business has nothing to do with me. If you think what the merchants think, then do it well and make people convince you. Just as you said, a man promises a thousand dollars. Since he wants to bring these merchants to make a fortune, he must make a fortune. Okay, leave, so that you will not see me, like a cat or a mouse."
Zhu Houzhao then grinned: "What the father taught me is that my son must...do it well."
He and Fang Jifan were like children walking on the night with gold ingots. After hearing Emperor Hongzhi allowed them to leave, they rushed out of the palace, as if Emperor Hongzhi was a robber.
"It's really strange." Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say, "Lao Fang, haven't you noticed that my father is particularly generous today. I'm still worried that he has intervened again. Although he always says you don't joke every time, I know my father very well. We have earned so much money, so he is willing to do it?"
Fang Jifan looked like a wise man, looking at Zhu Houzhao with caring and mentally retarded eyes, and then said, "Your Highness, your highness, all this comes from the arrangement of the minister."
"Hmm?" Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan in confusion.
Fang Jifan said seriously: "Your Majesty's money is not your Highness's future. Although Your Majesty loves money, what he really cares about is the sustainable world. Otherwise, what should we do if we have so much money? Our business is different from other business. The court has always distrust merchants, but this Xingguo business has used it to control merchants in the world. This can not only reassure Your Majesty and all officials, but also for Your Majesty, it is also a tempering for Your Majesty the Crown Prince."
Zhu Houzhao was happy: "As long as he doesn't come and take care of this palace, we can earn money well."
Zhu Houzhao had a heartfelt desire for silver.
Maybe he was crazy about being poor.
When the two of them were talking and laughing at the Meridian Gate, they saw one walking back and forth outside the Meridian Gate. As soon as they saw the prince and Fang Jifan come out, they immediately stepped forward and bowed: "The emperor has met His Highness and Duke of Qi."
After a closer look, this person was Chen Tong.
Chen Tong has now become the Secretary of State and has a prominent position. His future is naturally limitless. After thinking about it, isn’t it because of the care of His Highness the Crown Prince and the Duke of Qi?
If I hadn't been with the prince and the Qi State, I was afraid that I would be a frog in the well for the rest of my life, and I would not know that the world is so strong that I would have the opportunity today.
After walking around the Hall of Hell, he felt very moved. Therefore, when he waited here, Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan gave a great gift, he immediately said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Qi have great kindness and virtue. They will remember it until they die. It is hard to repay the officials as ox and horses in this life."
This is a bit exaggerated.
Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan looked at each other and smiled.
Fang Jifan sighed, "Okay, don't do this. I have said it a long time ago. I have always admired you very much. If you do a good job in the business, you will be considered a reward."
"Yes, yes, the lower officials will do their best."
"Yes, that person named Liu Kaizhi, but the censor?"
Fang Jifan suddenly remembered something.
Chen Tong was stunned and then said, "He is a doctor in the Ministry of Rites. Hey, he said, this person and the lower officials used to be close friends. They were both the same year and worked together..."
Zhu Houzhao gritted her teeth and said, "Since I was a friend in the past, I never thought that I would kill my friend today. Lao Fang, don't worry, I am not such a person."
Fang Jifan shivered: "Why did Your Highness suddenly emphasize that he is not such a person?"
"I'm afraid you will misunderstand." Zhu Houzhao said.
Fang Jifan thought it was strange, but... Liu Kaizhi... was indeed not a thing.
"I'm so angry." Fang Jifan said, "What I hate the most is to be friends, and to repay kindness with grudges. Such people are not as good as pigs and dogs. After I go back, I check how much money he owes the bank. If I owe a loan, I must ask someone to urge him. If I don't have credit, it will be even more terrible. Where did the money he bought a house come from? Eight out of ten must be stolen money. Our Jiefan is jealous of evil and must ask the Beijing Office to investigate him carefully."
Chen Tong only thought that Duke Qi wanted to avenge her revenge and thanked her for her. He felt very grateful. No wonder so many people were willing to follow Fang Jifan. None of the people in the officialdom were reliable, but following Duke Qi was different. Just follow him and enjoy the delicious food and drink spicy food.
