Chapter 1754 Killer
This Liu Kuan is panicking.
Now how can I take into account the loss of my high-level pick-up.
Once the Ottoman news was exposed, the world was in an uproar. Now everyone believes that the skyrocketing prices in Xishan New City all come from the Ottoman conspiracy.
In this way, the people who rushed to raise the price in the first place are very likely to have something to do with the Ottomans.
This is a major crime of treason. If you still scold Fang Jifan for lowering the price and cause unrest in the world, it is almost the same as telling others that you are in collusion with that damned Li Zheng, and you may have colluded with him.
Isn't this a joke about the fate of the family?
Then Li Zheng escaped, but where could Liu Kuan escape to?
What Liu Kuan is most worried about now is not the price of the mansion in Xishan New Town. What he feared was precisely the impeachment memorial sent up earlier, but no one should link this impeachment memorial with the Ottoman conspiracy!
The dissatisfied people in the court before had the same thoughts.
Nowadays, everyone is in danger, and when their lives are at stake, they don't care about anything else.
Zhu Houzhao said: "So, Fang Qing's family are good people?"
When he asked this question, many people nodded their heads one after another. They were afraid that others would see their strangeness, so they all hurriedly said: "What your majesty said is extremely true. It is well known that the Duke of Zhen is dedicated to serving the country. This is the leader of all officials in the world." A role model too."
"Reducing the price of the mansion has benefited the common people. What a feat this is, it's not as good as a minister."
Fang Jifan felt ashamed to receive so many compliments!
I am able to accumulate such a good reputation, of course it is inseparable from my dedication to serving the country and the people, but...their praise is too heavy, and what I have done is nothing more than what I can do. As the saying goes, the greater the power, The greater the responsibility, the truth in the world is nothing more than this.
Zhu Houzhao's mood was different, but he was a little panicked.
These days Fang Jifan is allowed to do things, the fief is given, and everything is up to him. I am in the palace, I just turn a blind eye and close one eye. Fang Jifan is selling mansions there, but who knows, this guy actually came. A jump sale.
There is nothing wrong with jumping off a building for a big sale.
The only question is... the silver?
Didn’t it be agreed before that the land in Chenzhuang area would increase by tens or hundreds of times?
But now Fang Jifan has gained a good name, but... his expectations for Zhu Houzhao are not very satisfactory.
As for the other officials, although they praised Fang Jifan in their mouths, they couldn't help being despised in their hearts.
Fang Jifan, this bastard, puts so much land away, giving people a house for nothing, and it is almost useless. I don't know if this **** has changed his sex, or he wants to buy people's hearts.
Speaking of which, this is really a prodigal son.
Let’s see how long you can sell your house for three taels of silver.
Zhu Houzhao looked uncomfortable.
He is a bit of an amateur, so he looked at Fang Jifan and said: "I heard that you are selling mansions at a low price in Xishan New City to benefit the people, and the people are praising your kindness."
Fang Jifan immediately said: "Your Majesty often said to my ministers that it is very pitiful for the people to live without a fixed place. Your Majesty is so worried about this that... Worry became sick. I know that Your Majesty is sick these days, and the reason for the illness is also here. .Your Majesty loves you. He is the Lord of the Town, and he is a cabinet scholar. He must share his worries for His Majesty. Xishan New City has indeed invested a lot of money and has recruited a lot of manpower. The scale of this new city is larger than that of the previous new city. , is even more grand. What I did was because I was deeply influenced by His Majesty’s love for the people, so I did my best. If the people praise the minister, it might as well be said that the people are praising Your Majesty.”
Fang Jifan paused, and then said: "Just like the common people today praise Wei Zheng, it is because there is a wise emperor like Tang Taizong that there are famous ministers like Wei Zheng. I am ashamed to say that, of course, I am not as good as the ancient virtuous ministers." , but Your Majesty's benevolent heart far surpasses the sages of all previous dynasties, this is the fortune of the soldiers and civilians of our dynasty, and the blessing of the common people."
Zhu Houzhao blushed.
He doesn't want to have a heart of benevolence, he wants money.
After holding back for a long time, the emperor remained silent.
At this time, among the hundred officials, many people looked at Fang Jifan with different eyes.
They were shocked suddenly.
Fang Jifan is so inviting to buy people's hearts, could it be that His Majesty...
That's right, His Majesty must be unhappy at this time, no wonder His Majesty is taciturn today.
Unexpectedly... some people have a heart of gloating.
Zhu Houzhao remained silent.
Fang Jifan became impatient, looked up at Zhu Houzhao and said, "Why doesn't your majesty say anything?"
Zhu Houzhao then glared at Fang Jifan and said: "Xishan New City, the price is so low, there is no profit, if so... If so, I... I am also very pleased, but I have recruited so many craftsmen, how can I support them?"
As soon as His Majesty said this, there was an uproar in the hall.
dare to love...
Your Majesty thinks it's too cheap, but why can't you say it?
So, everyone looked at Zhu Houzhao.
Perhaps, someone resonated with His Majesty, yes... Everyone thinks it's cheap.
Naturally, some people's hearts have sunk to the bottom... This is a tragedy...
Fang Jifan said happily: "Your Majesty, who said there is no profit?"
"..."
Fang Jifan's answer was shocking.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Fang Jifan smiled and said, "Tomorrow... I will earn a sum of money from this new city."
He patted his chest, swearing.
Zhu Houzhao laughed: "The price will increase tomorrow?"
Fang Jifan nodded and said: "Your Majesty will know when the time comes."
The two monarchs and ministers completely treat all officials as air!
Anyway, they are used to messing around.
No matter what he said, everyone was no longer surprised.
It's just... Fang Jifan's revelation shocked everyone.
How... How can Fang Jifan make a profit?
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Fang Jifan’s model is not going to last long. Xishan New Town maintains the price of three taels of silver, and has accumulated such a huge backlog of construction funds, but there is almost no profit. Sooner or later, it will not be able to bear such a huge financial pressure. .
But if Fang Jifan can make profits from it, it will be completely different.
Zhu Houzhao became interested, and his eyes suddenly brightened a little. For Zhu Houzhao, as long as he has money, he can talk about anything.
So he said: "Really? I will wait and see."
All the officials murmured in their hearts.
It's just that they dare not ask Fang Jifan.
When the court was about to disperse, someone caught the king, Bushi.
Wang Bushi is the richest man after all, worth tens of millions, and he always has unique insights into this business.
Especially now that he is becoming more and more extraordinary, the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose are getting bigger and bigger, and the big gold chain around his neck is getting thicker and thicker, even though he is still a Hanlin scholar, no one dares to underestimate him him.
So after the dynasty dispersed, as soon as Wang Bushi walked to the Meridian Gate, many people who had been waiting here surrounded Wang Bushi.
Someone took the lead and said: "Scholar Wang, is it possible that the price of the new city will increase tomorrow? Isn't that what the Lord Zhen Guo implied, otherwise, how can there be any profit..."
This is what everyone cares about, and everyone looks at Wang Bushi eagerly.
Wang Bushi stroked his beard, and sighed quietly. He was very sad: "Master...to this day, do you still care about the temporary rise and fall of house prices?"
"..."
This answer is a bit strange, and everyone can't understand it.
Wang Bushi took off his sunglasses, revealing his eyes, and his eyes were shining with light: "Fame and fortune, don't be so concerned about it. You can live on three meals a day without money, and you can't eat four meals even if you have money." Five meals, even if there are mountains of gold and silver in the family, I will not bring them with me when I am born, and I will not take them with me when I die. I advise you, as a minister in the court today, you should put your mind on the country, the country, and the country, just like this prince of the town."
"..."
Some people looked ashamed, while others sneered inwardly.
"The mansion in Xishan New City is neither good nor bad for the old man. The reason why he is not optimistic is because Zhen Guogong has always kept his word. Be optimistic, because... three taels of silver, no matter what, you won't suffer a loss, and you won't be fooled."
Wang Bushi looked at the faces of some people who were suffocated, but said: "Speaking of which, the old man also bought some mansions in Xishan New City..."
"What, didn't it mean that one household can only buy one set? This... this..."
"Of course." Wang Bushi said, "But I bought 10,000 sets."
"..."
Everyone gasped.
"The old man has been an official since he was named on the gold list. He has been in the capital for the rest of his life, but he needs to drink water and think about his source. Speaking of which, in the old man's hometown, the whole family, as well as the distant relatives and neighbors, happen to be tens of thousands of households. Where are the people... At this age, the old man doesn't care about gold and silver anymore. Thinking of the hardships of the people in the village, the old man can't let it go, so he casually bought some in their name, as a gift for them to move to the capital in the future. Settlement place."
Everyone gasped again.
This set costs at least dozens of taels of silver.
Ten thousand sets, that’s hundreds of thousands of taels!
But from Wang Bushi's mouth, it seems that... this house doesn't need money.
"So the old man advises you, don't always care about self-interest. Your Majesty loves the people, and Zhen Guogong has worked so hard for the people, we...we must follow suit, do our best, and do what we can. Why should personal self-interest be so important? The most regrettable thing in this old man's life is that he has earned hundreds of millions of wealth. After all... this is something that you don't bring with you when you die, so what's the use of keeping it? , Silks and satins, brocade clothes and fine food, do not bring happiness to the old man. It is precisely giving someone a meal, making them smile, and being able to benefit others for their own sake, on the contrary, it is satisfying."
"Scholar Wang, you... you... what do you mean?" someone asked.
Wang Bushi felt that he had said enough, and seemed to be impatient at this moment, and pulled his face down and said: "The meaning is very simple, don't ask this old man about the dog's business!"
…
One more is owed.
