"Right, after the transaction is completed tomorrow, this king still has something for you to do.”Zhu Zhi suddenly thought of something.
"Your Highness, please instruct me."
"We've earned more than five million taels this time. Take seven hundred thousand taels and send it to the capital's treasury, and two hundred thousand taels to the King Yan Residence.”
"Ah?" "Why?" Guo Ming was confused."We earned this money ourselves!"”
Zhu Zhi glanced at him and said,"Are you really not afraid that His Majesty will imprison this king?"”
If the transaction this time was only a small sum of 500,000 taels, then Zhu Zhi could just squint.
But was this five million taels a small number?
Could this number hide from the eyes of the world?
Your Liao Prince's Mansion took more than five million yuan and returned to Liaodong. Can Zhu Yuanzhang sleep soundly?
He had taken out seven hundred thousand taels to send to the capital's treasury to reassure Old Zhu. He felt that Prince Liao's son was not bad. He did not forget to show filial piety to his father after earning money.
The reason why it was sent to the internal treasury and not the Ministry of Revenue was because the internal treasury was Old Zhu's own small treasury.
The money from the internal treasury could be transferred to the Ministry of Revenue, but the money from the Ministry of Revenue could not be transferred to the internal treasury.
The meaning of sending the money to the treasury was: Even though his son was earning money, he did not forget to be filial to his father.
Who else would be unhappy to have such a filial son?
Old Zhu was also happy.
The extra 200,000 taels were sent to the territory of Prince Yan's residence because it was the territory of Prince Yan, Zhu Di.
Who would feel comfortable doing business in Zhu Di's territory and earning such a large sum of money?
Wasn't this equivalent to taking advantage of Zhu Di?
Although Zhu Di couldn't do it himself, it was better than watching others do it!
Giving 200,000 taels to the King Yan Residence was to make Zhu Di feel more at ease.
The reason why he wanted to do business in the territory of King Yan's residence was not because Zhu Zhi did not want to do business in Liaodong, but because Liaodong was too poor!
In terms of military geography, King Yan's Residence was definitely far inferior to King Liao's Residence.
Among the nine great frontier kings of Ming Dynasty, none of the princes had a fief as important as Liaodong, and none of the kings had an army as elite as the Liaodong Army.
However…Liaodong's disadvantage was also very obvious. It was poor.
Liaodong was a military town, and there weren't many civilians. Where did the merchants come from? How could he not be poor!
Therefore, Zhu Zhi could only go to Yongping Prefecture, which was closest to Liaodong, to sell glass.
However, the money given to Old Zhu and Zhu Di only added up to 900,000 taels. Was that a lot?
Many, but not enough.
900,000 taels was a huge number, but for Zhu Zhi, he had earned more than five million taels this time. He still had 4.5 million taels of silver left after giving it to Old Zhu and Zhu Di.
And the 900,000 taels that he gave out would have an obvious effect. With this 900,000 taels, Zhu Zhi had saved a lot of trouble.
If he didn't fork out the 900,000 taels, Zhu Di's heart would feel unbalanced. In the future, when Zhu Zhi came to Yongping Prefecture to discuss business, he would inevitably cause trouble.
It was the same for Old Zhu. He would suspect Zhu Zhi's thoughts. When Zhu Zhi returned to Liaodong with the money, he would order Zhu Zhi to be grounded on the spot.
The effect of gifting 900,000 taels was obvious.
First, it was Old Zhu's side. After receiving his money and filial piety, Old Zhu was naturally very happy. After that, whether it was regarding Liaodong's policies or Zhu Zhi's desire to continue doing business, the imperial court would give him the green light.
Next was Zhu Di. After receiving Zhu Zhi's 200,000 taels of silver, he would naturally welcome Zhu Zhi warmly when he came to the territory of King Yan's residence to do business again.
Zhu Zhi pursed his lips into a smile,"This time, we don't have to worry about food and clothing."”
Five million taels was enough for his future plans in Liaodong.
However, this was only the beginning.
Glass was sold once a year through hunger marketing.
Next year, he would come back to Eternal Peace Manor to sell glass. By then, the price would only be higher, not lower.
Zhu Zhi selling glass made everyone happy.
Because everyone got the benefits they wanted.
……
Although the auction only took a day to complete, this batch of silver took half a month to be transported.
After all, the number was too large, and he could not afford to make any mistakes.
The Yongping Prefect had mobilized more than 700 soldiers and 200 Liaodong Steel Cavalry that had followed Zhu Zhi to escort the silver to Shanhaiguan, the border between Liaodong and Yongping.
Outside Shanhai Pass, the 15,000 Guangning Guards were on standby. This scene almost made the Shanhai Guards commander think that the enemy was attacking the city.
It was so freaking scary!
……
Beiping, King Yan's Mansion
"Your Highness! King Yan! Something big has happened!"
Zhang Yu, the number one general of the King Yan Residence, rushed over.
At this moment, Zhu Di was enjoying the scenery by the lake with his Yan Princess Consort Xu Miaoyun. Seeing the usually calm Zhang Yu so flustered, Zhu Di could not help but frown slightly."What happened? Look at how anxious you are.”
"Reporting, reporting to wangye, Liao wangye went to Yongping fu.”Zhang Yu panted heavily as she ran too fast.
"Isn't it just that His Highness Liao King came to Peace Peace Manor? What's wrong with you?”Xu Miaoyun chuckled." It's not like the Liao King's Mansion is here with his three guards. What are you so anxious about?"”
"No, no!" "Liao Wangye even gave us money!" Zhang Yu said anxiously.”
