Chapter 57

After Zhang Hao was troubled by Zhang Li, he went to the palace. He was busy today. Zhang Li was being helped by walking at this moment, and he was also cursing, saying that he wanted to deal with this bastard.

When Ding Yu heard this, he just smiled and dealt with Zhang Hao. What a joke. Zhang Li is no match for Zhang Hao at all. He can't beat him even if he doesn't listen to reason. He still dealt with him?

After Zhang Hao returned to the palace, he arrived at the Danfang. At this moment, Lu Fang was reciting a memorial for Jiajing. Zhang Hao was sitting behind and continued to write with a brush. Jiajing couldn't see him writing, so he spoke, "Can you write those words well? After all, you are a count. The words are so ugly. How can you write memorials in the future?"

"Ah, is it ugly? Is it okay? It's improved compared to yesterday, look?" Zhang Hao said, picking up the paper and asking Jiajing.

"If you don't read, practice your calligraphy well. From today on, sit there and practice your calligraphy without any trouble. Don't lie there and sleep!" Jiajing waved his hand and said. This morning, Jiajing also read what Zhang Hao wrote last night, but still couldn't read it.

"I'm not busy, I'm busy!" Zhang Hao said and sat down.

"What are you busy with??" Jiajing looked at Zhang Hao without understanding.

"Make money, Your Majesty, that 10,000 taels of silver cannot be lost. It will probably start this afternoon!" Zhang Hao looked up and looked at his decisive expression.

"You, okay, I'm too lazy to care about you, but as long as you get here, you have to practice calligraphy!" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and warned.

"Okay!" Zhang Hao nodded helplessly and said, "I still have to deal with Jiajing's words, otherwise I will be dealt with.

At noon, Zhang Hao went out for dinner. Now they had built a simple shed. At this moment, his subordinates also brought bricks and tiles to start building a factory.

Jiajing probably never thought that Zhang Hao would build a factory in the palace, but no one reported this to Jiajing.

That afternoon, the custom-made wooden lattices were also delivered. Zhang Hao started to buy a lot of lard outside and let the soldiers start boiling. After making them for an afternoon, he finally got the soap out. However, it has not cooled yet, so they still need to wait for them to cool down. When they are cooled, they can be used.

Wei Hao also customized a lot of oil paper to package the soaps. Next, Zhang Hao also made the soaps, which can also make money.

On Jiajing's side, Jiajing didn't see Zhang Hao for an afternoon, and couldn't help but say to Lu Fang: "Why did this kid go? No one can be found, and he didn't come for an afternoon?"

"I don't know this, why don't I go and look for it?" Lu Fang was stunned for a moment and said to Jiajing.

"Don't look for him, you kid, look at it. The money will be spent in a few days. If it is spent, it's nothing. I'm worried that I might be deceived!" Jiajing waved his hand and said worriedly.

I still feel sorry for Zhang Rong, as if I have indulged Zhang Hao, but I can't stand it even if this kid is talking about it every day, and I can't stand it either.

Until the evening, Zhang Hao was very happy to see the soaps ready. Then he called his subordinates to take a shower, and Zhang Hao was still watching from the side.

"Wipe this on your body to see if it's useful!" Zhang Hao took out a piece of soap and handed it to his subordinates for use. The subordinates immediately picked it up and used it. As soon as they applied it, bubbles began to appear.

"Rinse it with water!" Zhang Hao said to them, and they began to wash it with water.

"Hey, it's so slippery, it feels very clean and fragrant. Sir, this is a good thing!" One of the soldiers said in surprise.

"Of course, it's a good thing. Bathing can be cleaner and can also remove stains. Think about it, you haven't taken a shower for many days, and after using this, it's more comfortable!" Zhang Hao stood there and said proudly.

"Sir, this must be a good thing!" Li Mingdan looked at Zhang Hao excitedly and said.

"Brothers, don't worry, our brothers from Thousand Households will do this in the future. I will give you wages. If you don't work, do this anyway. Don't underestimate this. From now on, I will give you money every month. Although it may not be much, it will definitely be comparable to the salary of your Jinyiwei!" Zhang Hao stood there and said happily.

When those people heard this, they were even happier. This was the money, and their salary was not much. Ordinary soldiers of the Jinyi Guard only cost more than ten taels of silver a year, which was barely enough for the family. Now Zhang Hao actually said that doing this would exceed their salary.

"Sir, don't worry, we will definitely do it!" Chen Shi said excitedly.

"Well, okay, by the way, these things should be sold to the father-in-law and the palace maids as soon as possible, and let them use them first. If they use them well, there will naturally be people using them. In addition, we also need to buy them outside and tell the merchants outside that this has come out of the royal family. The things from the royal family are all good things. Is it priced? Well, one or two silver dollars a piece of soap. We will make soap in the future. Now we sell soap first!" Zhang Hao stood there and said to his subordinates.

His subordinates also nodded, and then Zhang Hao ordered them to sell soap and find the father-in-laws I know and the palace maids, especially the father-in-law, who had a taste on them. If they used soap, the taste would definitely be much less and they would be comfortable.

It was not until after dinner that Zhang Hao returned to the Danfang. When Jiajing saw that he was back, he was so angry.

"Go there to fool around?" Jiajing said at Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiajing with confidence and said, "Master, I'm going to make money, I'm not fool around!"

Jiajing would believe him, and then asked, "Where is the money, where is the money I gave you?"

"Ah, here, isn't this?" Zhang Hao took out the silver notes and looked at them for Jiajing.

When Jiajing saw that there was still some, he felt a little relaxed and asked casually: "How many are left?"

"There are more than 5,000 taels left!" Zhang Hao answered seriously.

"Ah!" Jiajing and Lu Fang both looked at Zhang Hao in surprise. It was only a little over a day, and that was the only one left.

"You, you, who cheated you from your money, tell me!" Jiajing pointed at Zhang Hao and asked in a furious manner.

"No, I spent it, I bought things!" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing confused. Who could cheat his own money? Isn't that stupid, okay?

"Your Majesty, calm down, calm down, I will ask him carefully!" Lu Fang hurriedly persuaded Jiajing.

"You go and ask clearly. Who has cheated the money away? I'll take it back. Really, I'm so brave. I dare to cheat his money!" Jiajing pointed at Zhang Hao and said angrily to Lu Fang.

"Yes, yes, the emperor calms down, I will go now!" Lu Fang hurriedly persuaded him. He knew why Jiajing was so anxious, because at the beginning, Zhang Rong said that it would be fine to be a guard, but Zhang Rong ignored anything in the future. Jia Jing agreed. He had only been here for a few days and had lost so much money. Jia Jing felt sorry for Zhang Rong.

"No one cheated me of money. Really, Master, don't worry, I'm going to make money. I bought a lot of things!" Zhang Hao explained to Jiajing, how could Jiajing believe it?

Lu Fang also pulled Zhang Hao to the side and said, "Zhang Hao, how did you spend the money? Tell me!"

"Uncle Lu, making money requires capital, so I bought some things with money. Now I have the Jinyiwei and I have made it. I can take it out and sell it tomorrow. Tonight, they will take it out and sell it!" Zhang Hao explained to Lu Fang.

"Hiss, really, those Jinyiwei are also helping you sell. Are they coaxing your money together?" Lu Fang still looked at Zhang Hao with some disbelief and said.

"How is that possible? Besides, they dare not. Who am I? I am their chief. They cheated on my money and would be dead?" Zhang Hao stood there, looking at Lu Fang and said,

When Lu Fang heard this, he nodded, right. Logically, they didn’t dare either. Zhang Hao just dealt with a group of people yesterday, and now they don’t have such courage!

"Your Majesty, this sounds reasonable. Doing business requires capital. Besides, with the Jinyiwei next to me, I guess no one dares to cheat me, right?" Lu Fang said to Jiajing.

"Well, you believe what he said. If he is deceived, he may help others. If he knows that he has been deceived, will he still be Zhang Manzi?" Jiajing said unhappy at Lu Fang.

"Your Majesty, really, you just don't believe me. Your Majesty, watch me make money!" Zhang Hao was very angry. He was really not so stupid.

"Okay, okay, don't care, Lu Fang, don't ask, Zhang Manzi, you disappeared for an afternoon. Now you go to practice calligraphy. Those few words are so ugly!" Jiajing didn't want to ask anymore. If he continued to ask, he would probably be angry to death.

"Oh!" Zhang Hao nodded. He really should practice calligraphy well. Anyway, there is nothing to do, so it's better to practice calligraphy. Zhang Hao returned to his seat and started to pick up a brush and practice calligraphy. He thought that he didn't need to spend money on paper, ink, pen and inkstone anyway, and he didn't practice it. He continued to write until Jiajing was about to go to bed. Zhang Hao stopped.

"Well, I have to practice every day. It's good tonight. I can calm down and practice calligraphy!" Jiajing was very satisfied with Zhang Hao's performance tonight. He thought to himself that a fool is a fool, and doing things is to focus.

The next morning, Zhang Hao went to train his elder brother. After training, he arrived at the Jinyiwei Barracks.

"Sir, the businessman outside is very interested in our soap. Someone has bought 1,000 yuan!" Chen Shi saw Zhang Hao coming over, took out a silver note of 1,000 taels and said to Zhang Hao.

"Oh, yes!" Zhang Hao looked at Chen Shi excitedly and said, "This kid can do business, and you can contact the businessman."
