Chapter 85: The Great Family

The prefect of Yingtian governed the eight counties in the capital. It was outside, and perhaps just a prefect, but here, it was on par with the local governor and the rank of the chief officials at the foot of the emperor, and the status was extraordinary.

At this time, in the Yousen Office, the prefect was sitting upright behind the desk, writing quickly. Although it was sunny, because the house was not transparent, there were still lights hanging on the walls.

The lights were wide and the main hall was full of lushness. The magistrate Yang Xian came in and could hardly see the face of the adult. Yang Xian bowed and said, "You have met the adult."

Brush...

The pen tip of the brush was still slight friction sounds of dragons and snakes on the paper, and the prefect did not look up.

Seeing this, Yang Xian had to stand on the side.

The second official of the Assistant Officer is the second official of the Assistant Officer. In front of the head official, there is nothing, especially in the Yingtian Prefecture Gate. There are many rumors about the prefecture Governor of the Yingtian Prefecture. The prefecture Governor has been steadily and steadily. Now that the new king ascended the throne, such an important position is still in his hands. It can be seen that the prefecture Governor is definitely a big deal.

After a long time, the pen was finally put into the pen holder. The person behind the desk sighed quietly and said, "Is Ziliang here?"

Yang Xian hurriedly said, "Yes, the official came immediately after hearing the summons from the Lord."

"Is that?" The person behind the case sneered and looked at Yang Xian with the candlelight. He picked up a document and squinted his eyes and said, "Recently, there was a case in the Tongju Hall, and someone sued the Jinyiwei for murder. Why did the Tongju Hall not accept it?"

Yang Xian explained: "This...the deceased is a rogue..."

Bang!

The people after the case slapped the table, and then the voice became colder: "The people are our parents who are food and clothing. At the foot of the emperor, there are so many people who are missing. Can you sit still? Your salary and wealth are all the people's wealth and ointment. Ziliang, you are so disappointing!"

These words are extremely serious. Even in the officialdom, even if there is an irreconcilable hatred of killing the father, which involves fundamental interests, it is impossible to "reprimand" like this.

Yang Xian was shocked and knew that the prefect was going to hit him, so he didn't dare to make a sound.

The person who came after the case threw the document and sighed, "There is a lot of chaos in Donghuamen. Yingtian Mansion wants to make a difference. I heard that some thieves from Wang Yang fled there, but the servants didn't dare to get it. Is this true?"

Of course, this kind of thing is false. Not to mention the thief Wang Yang, even the thief Xiao Xiao would not dare to go there. But this is a way of thinking. Yang Xian was able to roughly understand Shangguan’s meaning and hurriedly said, “The lower officials have heard of it.”

The person who was born after the case smiled faintly: "I also heard that this hundred households in Donghuamen exploited merchants and ate alone? Hey... Ziliang, now there is a shortage of money everywhere, the court is like this, the East Palace is like this, and the Yingtian Mansion is like this. But you also have to think about whether the Beizhen Mansion is short of money? Now only one hundred household is full, and the one who is jealous is not a family. You always look at the front of you, only Yingtian Mansion, can you get things done? Go, the New Year is celebrated every year, and you have to pass the New Year every year, Yingtian Mansion is like this, and everyone is like this."

After saying that, the man lowered his head and picked up the pen in the pen holder.

Yang Xian hurriedly said, "The emperor is leaving."

The person at the desk just nodded, focusing on his mind and ignoring him again.

…………………………………………………………………………………………

Donghuamen has been very lively recently. The places facing the streets are now being renovated, and shops are rising from the ground, just like mushrooms after a rain.

There are many people in the Hundred Houses who parked outside and came to ask about it. Although it has been spread all over Nanjing, it is best to go to Donghuamen to do business. Why? It is clear price tags. Merchants are rational. In the past, they used to do a business and used some money to make a purchase, which was a bottomless pit. No one could say how much it was. However, here, there are some things that are said to be ten taels per month, and those profitable transactions do not take a tiny ounce per month. In this way, everyone had a clear mind before doing business. After calculating how much the store rents and how much the purchase cost, they felt that it was profitable. They were moved.

In addition, after the shops are crowded here recently, the effect will emerge. At least for many Nanjing people, it is best to compare and compare things to buy things, such as Thirteenzhang Street. Everyone knows that the street sells hats on one street, so anyone who wants to buy hats has to go there. As for the sale of hats in other places, the business is much worse than the business on Thirteenzhang Street. Everyone would rather walk a few more steps to Thirteenzhang Street than patronize you.

This is how the effect came about. Donghuamen gradually became famous. With abortion, there were transactions. Seeing that others earned money, more merchants came to inquire.

As a last resort, the Hundred House Office specially set up a clerk's house and hired several scholars to serve as receptionist. Although the merchants are brave and cautious, they are also the most cautious group. Although they are jealous of making money, they have to come around to find out how the business of other shops is. I wonder if these Hundred House Office really has turned the safe money into an iron rule, and will other yamen come to check the cash in the future.

The daily abortion of the Hundred Houses is as high as a hundred people, and there are all kinds of people asking questions. Fortunately, except for the lottery draw, most of the time, there are usually a few clerks here, and only a few clerks are working. Of course, everyone dares to come because the Jinyiwei at this time was not synonymous with evil spirits like the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

Such a lively scene made Zhou Shuli very energetic. At this time, in the Haofenglou's duty room, Zhou Fang dipped in saliva, flipped through the account book, and reported in a 100, "Sir, there are more than 200 shops now, of which more than 30% of them are gambling shops and trample. After the students have converted, our monthly safe money is probably less than 10,000 taels. Excluding expenses, our 100 households will be..."

For Zhou Shuli, he had never had the time to collect money so happily.

Hao Fenglou smiled slightly and said, "How many merchants have planned to come here to buy land and do business recently?"

Zhou Shuli said: "I'm afraid there are many, especially the tram, wine shops and tea shops. There are many people now, and the dental defense team plans to open here. In Nanjing, everyone used to like to go to the Qinhuai River, but now, many are gathered at Donghuamen."

Hao Feng Louhe nodded and said, "Next month, I'm afraid it will rise again. The Chinese New Year will be in two months. Let brothers work harder, and you should work harder, and you should take more control if you need to manage."

Zhou Shuli said excitedly: "Of course. Sir, it's almost the New Year, brothers..."

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone will be able to send some money for the New Year at that time."

Zhou Shuli finally felt relieved and said, "Students have heard some rumors recently, and the new Qianhu Adult seems to be dissatisfied with us."

Hao Fenglou said lightly: "Why is this?"

Zhou Shuli said: "Our hundred households now has a daily gold dump, but the Qian households... The student asked someone to inquire a few days ago. It was reported that the Qian households were transferred to the office. Originally, he was a general of the Han Dynasty and was sent by the escort in the palace. Now that he was in office, he was pointing at our hundred households to give him some benefits, but..."

Hao Fenglou frowned: "Don't pay attention to him, let's do our own business."

What else did Zhou Shuli want to say, but seeing Hao Fenglou's attitude was firm, he could only sigh and sit idle for a while before saying, "Sir, it's almost the New Year, why don't you prepare some New Year's goods and send them to Thousand Houses?"
