Zhou Kui was not a fool.
He didn't have the guts to directly scold Zhu Youjian.
However, he still had the guts to scold the Brocade Guard.
In any case, he didn't have to bring back the 500,000 taels of silver.
Zhou Kui would never admit that the Zhou family had returned to its original state.
Looking at Zhou Kui, who was almost rolling on the ground, Zhu Youjian signaled Wang Chengen behind him to move a chair.
He sat down in front of Zhou Kui.
Then, he gave her a look.
The eunuchs behind Wang Chengen immediately retreated.
At this time, only Zhu Youjian, his son-in-law, and Wang Chengen were left in the room.
Zhu Youjian took a deep breath.
"Father, I'm afraid the Zhou family won't be able to return to its original state.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kui immediately made a fuss.
"Your Majesty, if even you don't stand up for this old minister, then this minister really can't live!”
After saying that, Zhou Kui put up a white silk on the beam.
Wang Chengen, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but whisper,
"Mr. President, you've been throwing away this white silk for three days. Don't hurt your arm…"
Zhou Kui glared at Wang Chengen and said sternly,
"Why do you care?"
After saying that, Zhou Kui started wailing.
"Father, Mother! This child is unfilial and will be wronged to death. This child is useless!”
Zhu Youjian said impatiently,
"We can't return the silver, but zhen has a way to let the country's father-in-law earn more silver.”
Zhou Kui's crying stopped abruptly. He immediately looked at Zhu Youjian and smiled.
"Your Majesty, I'm just a villager. Please don't hold it against me.”
"No matter what, I'm also the country's father.”
"It's better to give me such a good thing than to let those outsiders benefit!”
Zhu Youjian sighed helplessly.
"Father, from today onwards, spread a message from the capital.”
"Just say that you found a profitable business in Jiangnan.”
"I'll leave ten thousand taels of silver with you, and you'll get one percent interest every year!”
"For the first month, we are in urgent need of silver. Those who invest more than 100,000 taels will receive a monthly interest of two points and be paid off in the same month!”
Hearing this.
Zhou Kui was about to drool.
He looked at Zhu Youjian with bright eyes and asked,
"No, Your Majesty, why should we let outsiders take advantage of such a good thing?”
"How much silver do you think we lack? We still have many relatives in our hometown.”
Zhu Youjian shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"Alright, if the country's father can help me raise 20 million taels of silver, I will let the country's father take advantage of this good death.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. A mere 20…million?!”
Zhou Kui suddenly raised his head.
Twenty million taels of silver!
How many people did the Ming court have in a year?
Zhou Kui's mouth twitched slightly. He raised his head in confusion and looked at Zhu Youjian.
"Your Majesty, this business is not in Jiangnan but Liaodong, right…"
Zhu Youjian nodded slightly and said to Wang Chengen beside him,
"See, zhen said it before. This matter cannot be deceived by the country lord.”
"That's right, it's Liaodong.”
Zhou Kui was short of silver.
However, Zhou Kui was not a fool.
Liaodong had more losses than victories.
Regardless of whether or not he could repay her in the future, if the news was leaked, the entire court would skin him alive.
Zhou Kui looked at Zhu Youjian with difficulty.
Then, he smiled embarrassedly and said,
"Your Majesty, I know."
"I can set up a stall to read your fortune, but I can do business.”
"I am not cut out for that."
"Your Majesty, please issue a decree to the Jinyi Guards to restore the Zhou family…"
Zhu Youjian looked at Zhou Kui with some difficulty.
"Then I have no choice."
"Wang Chengen!"
Wang Chengen took a step forward and lowered his head.
"This servant is here."
Zhu Youjian stood up and let out a long breath. Suddenly, he shouted,
"Send the country's father to heaven on behalf of me!"
"Yes! This servant will definitely serve the country's husband comfortably!”
When Wang Chengen heard this, he immediately revealed a happy expression.
She rushed to Zhou Kui and snatched the white silk from his hands.
He casually placed the white silk on the beam.
Then, he skillfully tied a dead knot.
In the end, she even pulled him hard.
"Country Father, it's sturdy, why do you still need this servant to serve you?”
Zhou Kui raised his head with difficulty and asked Zhu Youjian,
"Your Majesty, is Your Majesty trying to kill me?”
Zhu Youjian looked at Zhou Kui helplessly and said,
"What? No, I didn't. Didn't you say that you couldn't live on?”
"Zhen is just following your wishes."
"If you don't want to die, you can leave the palace and go home now.”
Zhou Kui's mouth twitched slightly.
Go home!
Do I still have a home?
You raided my house!
Go back to the street and set up a stall to read fortunes?
It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but going from extravagance to frugality is even more uncomfortable than killing me with a knife!
You really deserve to die!
Zhou Kui looked at Zhu Youjian excitedly.
"I…I…"
Zhou Kui had just opened his mouth.
Wang Chengen, who was smiling, raised the white silk that had been placed on the beam.
Obviously, Zhu Youjian only had three meanings.
He could either die quickly, go home, or go to his own mountain.
In just an instant.
Zhou Kui suddenly felt that Zhu Youjian was not cute anymore.
He wasn't the obedient son-in-law that he could manipulate…
Zhou Kui took a deep breath.
He looked at Zhu Youjian and asked seriously,
"Your Majesty, how much silver can I get in the end?”
