One dead person!

To Zhu Guoqiang, Fan Sanlun was just a dead person.

However, sometimes the living are more important than the dead.

Therefore, Zhu Guoqiang did not kill him immediately. Instead, he ordered people to secretly escort Fan Sanlun back to Jinan and imprison him in the dungeon of Prince De's Mansion. Of course, before that, he had to go to the Jam Room, which is the place where eunuchs were castrated.

In a word, I want to castrate him first.

"Your Majesty, why did you keep him alive? For a person like him, it would be light even if he was cut into pieces with a thousand cuts."

"Yeah, that's too light."

With a smile, Zhu Guoqiang looked at Li Jingyun and said.

"Keeping this person alive will definitely be useful in the future."

"In the future? The prince wants to use him to run the Fan family?"

"is it possible?"

Shaking his head, Zhu Guoqiang sneered.

"Even if we have him alive, it doesn't make much sense. Even if we write a report and send it to the court, the Fan family will take care of everything. When the time comes, someone will naturally stand up to speak for them and go all out. In the end,

Fan Sanlun bears all the charges..."

Shaking his head, Zhu Guoqiang sighed.

"Keeping him alive now is to wait for the future. He will definitely come in handy in the future!"

When will it be in the future?

I'm afraid I have to wait five years, five years... After being locked up in a dungeon for five years, Fan Sanlun will definitely seize the chance to survive! By then...

Zhu Guoqiang already had plans for Fan Sanlun. Just like this other courtyard, when leaving the other courtyard, he looked at the mountains of food piled up in the courtyard and gave instructions to Chen Changgeng.

"After the food is transported away, the yard will be burned down..."

Destroy corpses and eliminate traces!

This is something that must be done. As for the food, of course it must be transported back to Jinan.

Because there was too much food, it took almost ten days to transport all the food from the other courtyard. Then a fire burned everything. Even if the Fan family sent people over, they could only see ruins.

, as for the food... perhaps, it had been destroyed in the fire long ago.

But for Zhu Guoqiang, having that food not only made him relieved and no longer had to worry about food, it also allowed him to see new opportunities.

When Li Delin, who was wearing a cotton-padded jacket, walked into the Prince's Mansion, he felt as if he was in another world. As a businessman, he had lost everything - the grain store and his home. When he ran away, he didn't even have the money to take with him. He had become a

Although he was destitute, he had lamented in his heart that maybe this was retribution. After all, the grain merchant was in the business of accumulating houses. During the siege, he raised the price of grain a lot, but in the end, he lost everything in a fire.

In the past period of time, he has been thinking about what to do in the future, but no matter what he does, he needs capital. Even if he buries some money in the ground, before he thinks about it, that little money is the capital for the survival of the whole family.

It cannot be touched.

As for the grain business... it will definitely not be possible before the canal is opened.

"The common man Li Delin meets the Crown Prince."

Because in the Ming Dynasty, it was not necessary to kneel down when meeting officials, so Li Delin only had to bow his head and bow in salute.

"No courtesy, just sit down and talk."

"The common people dare not..."

Li Delin did not sit down, but stood there cautiously.

Putting down the pen in his hand, Zhu Guoqiang looked at Li Delin and said.

"Is Shichang Grain Store your business?"

"Master Hui Shi, it is indeed a common people's business, but now the grain store has been destroyed by war..."

In fact, it was you, the ruined prince, who caused it... Before Li Delin could have that thought in his heart, Zhu Guoqiang smiled.

"In that fire, the people in the city inevitably suffered casualties, and many people lost their homes and property. Speaking of which, it was all Gu's fault."

"Oh, the Crown Prince, look at what you said. If the Crown Prince hadn't caused the fire from heaven, I'm afraid that all the young and old in this city would have been killed by the slave slaves. The common people saw with their own eyes how the slave slaves slaughtered the people after the city was broken. If it hadn't been for the Master Prince,

The eighteen members of Cao Min's family would probably have died in their hands long ago..."

Li Delin's words are actually the thoughts of the people of Jinan who have survived. Perhaps they will inevitably lose their families and property in the fire, but they still know very well that without the prince's sky fire, they would have died long ago. Because of this, for

Only then will the prince be filled with gratitude.

Facing Li Delin's gratitude, Zhu Guoqiang sighed deeply in his heart, and then said.

"Li Delin, actually I asked you to come here this time because I want you to do something for me."

"Help the prince do something?"

Li Delin looked at the prince in surprise,

"If anything happens to the prince, just tell the people. The people will do their best to serve the prince and do their best for the prince."

Although he still didn't know what he was going to do, Li Delin was already ready to do whatever he wanted for the prince. Besides, having been in business all his life, he had a keen awareness that for him, this was an opportunity.

, but what the prince said next made him so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

"...Well, that's basically it. I give you food, and you sell it to the capital. The price can be slightly higher than usual, but you must avoid the price being too high and hurting the people..."

The prince asked me to do business for him!

The prince's instructions made Li Delin feel as if he had burnt incense in his previous life. He didn't know how to deal with such a good thing. After all, as we all know, what it meant to be a merchant of the feudal family, and what it meant to be a merchant in Jinan from now on.

In this world, he can walk sideways... Just when Li Delin was immersed in unprecedented excitement, he heard the prince say again.

"However, I can't ask you to do this job in the name of Prince De's Palace. Shi Chang still has your time. As for the share capital, I can lend you five thousand taels first. As for Shi Chang's share capital, the stewards of the palace and

You talk, what do you think?"

Looking at the excited Li Delin, Zhu Guoqiang emphasized.

"If I know that you are doing business outside in the name of Prince De's Palace, Guhui will immediately cut off contact with you. If you dare to do evil in the name of Prince De's Palace, you will naturally be severely punished by national law. Can you

Can you do it?”

this……

Sir, what does this mean?

Although he didn't know the prince's plan, Li Delin knew that this was a great opportunity for him to make a comeback, and how could he miss such an opportunity, so he nodded repeatedly and thanked him continuously.

"If ordinary people can do it, ordinary people will never disgrace the reputation of the palace."

"Okay, remember what you said today. From now on, you will be Gu's confidants and the people I trust most. As long as you keep this in mind, you can always stay in this house!"

Li Delin quickly bowed his head and replied.

"The grass-roots people have written it down..."

"good,"

Zhu Guoqiang nodded,
Chapter completed!
