The latest website: Zhulan, "So this year's charcoal fire is expensive. If it is not controlled, the price will continue to rise."
Zhou Shuren said, "Firewood is not cheap. I saw many people selling firewood."
"Well, be more diligent a day, and you can sell several times a day."
Zhou Houfu has its own Zhuangzi, so there is no need to buy firewood. Zhuangzi will send firewood to Beijing every day.
It is conceivable how much the entire Hou Mansion consumes in one day, and the monthly payment is also a considerable amount. Without a clean and honest official family, it is not a favor, and the life is not as glamorous as it seems.
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "Many officials have advanced their salaries this month."
The salary of the imperial court has risen a few times, which is not bad, but unfortunately the winter days are difficult.
Zhulan said, "It's fine if you don't borrow money from the treasury."
Zhou Shuren snorted, "Don't even think about it."
The advance payment is already his biggest bottom line, and the emperor will not allow it. Every money in the treasury must be spent on the blade.
The last naval battle gave the emperor a sense of urgency. From time to time, he would look at the drawn coastline map. Thinking of this, Zhou Shuren had a headache. Building a defensive line requires money, or money from a bottomless pit.
In the evening, a large family had a reunion dinner in the main courtyard. The clothes were still plain, and they did not change into bright clothes. Who made the Zhouhou Mansion and the royal family a little closer!
Other officials can live a normal life after one month. The Zhouhou Mansion is still low-key. At least the emperor is relieved to see it, and Zhou Shuren is also thinking of the goodness of the emperor.
The next day, Ming Teng went to the morning court with his grandfather. After the anniversary, the Marquis of Rong An was going to officially appear in the court hall.
The end of life is about Ming Teng. When I stand in the court, I am obviously very young, but I stand in a conspicuous position. After a year of silence, Ming Teng has changed a lot. The scriptures for one year are not written in vain. Research, the temperament has become more and more stable.
The emperor was very surprised when he saw it. The court praised Ming Teng for pure filial piety, etc., and then took Ming Teng away at once.
Mr. Wen is sour and depressed. The Wen family is the mother family of the crown prince. The emperor has suppressed the Wen family several times, but instead trusts Zhou Shuren unconditionally. Everyone can feel the emperor's love for Ming Teng. Rong's surname really takes advantage!
Mr. Wen stabbed, "Marquis Zhou is very lucky."
Zhou Shuren, "Who made me have a good mother! No, who made me reincarnate?"
Mr. Wen, "..."
This old man's mouth, he should not be the meanest.
Boss Wen walked away in a huff, but the others came over to congratulate him. They all knew that the emperor wanted to reuse Rong Mingteng. There was no way to be jealous. The surname was one aspect. The clan grows bigger.
Zhou Shuren replied politely, and when the crowd left, Zhou Shuren walked slowly with his hands behind his back.
The second prince is looking up to the sky, why is it so difficult to win over the people of Zhouhou Mansion!
Zhou Shuren didn't know the second prince's depression, he was thinking of the third son, Chang Lian's life would not be easy after the winter, even if the imperial court controlled the merchants to take the opportunity to seek violence, and the aristocratic family had their own ways to make profits.
Zhou Shuren was also pleased that this was Changlian's opportunity. After enough training, it would be Changlian's capital.
After leaving the palace, Zhou Shuren saw King Qi, and when he saw that he was standing beside the carriage of the household department, he was puzzled, "Is there something for the prince to ask me?"
King Qi said, "Private matters."
Zhou Shuren didn't get on the carriage, "Your Highness, please speak."
King Qi, "Everyone in the capital knows that Houfu's winter vegetables are good, and I want to borrow a few vegetable farmers."
Zhou Shuren thought it was a private matter, "These are all trivial matters."
King Qi lowered his voice again, "Could Zhou Hou still remember the fine seed?"
Zhou Shuren reacted for a while, "Cultivate good seeds of food?"
"Yes, I heard Brother Huang say that this year is stable."
Zhou Shuren really didn't hear the emperor mention it. He didn't mention it because he wanted to wait for complete stability, "This is a good thing."
Increasing grain production is a good thing for the people, especially in the years when grain production is declining, which is a shot in the arm.
King Qi was not sure whether the emperor should give the credit to himself or to his father. It should be the father's, but when the father was unable to do what he wanted, it was the emperor himself.
After King Qi left, Zhou Shuren got on the carriage of the household department and touched it. King Qi wanted to test some of his emperor's plans, but unfortunately the emperor didn't tell him.
Not long after Zhou Shuren returned to the household department, he waited for Ming Teng, "Did you come here after leaving the palace?"
Ming Teng nodded, "Well, the emperor has arranged an errand for his grandson."
Zhou Shuren is not surprised, the emperor will definitely reuse Ming Teng, "What errand?"
Ming Teng, "The emperor asked his grandson to be in charge of the grain."
This really surprised him, he thought he would arrange for him to protect the palace!
Zhou Shuren smiled, "This is my trust in you."
"Ok?"
Zhou Shuren said what King Qi said, "If there is no accident, there will be results next year, and the efforts of these years will be successful. It's not just trust that the emperor makes you responsible."
Still very trustworthy.
Ming Teng also laughed, "A good thing that benefits the country and the people."
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "The emperor will give you some merits for nothing."
Ming Teng also wanted to understand, "The grandson will not disappoint the emperor."
Zhou Shuren said: "The Rong family is finally the emperor, just remember it."
Ming Teng nodded, "Grandson will keep his mouth shut."
He knew his identity, Marquis of Rongan, which was the royal family's trust in the Rong family.
Zhou Shuren was happy for Ming Teng, but he was sour. His achievements were all made by himself. Ming Teng is good. The emperor has to make arrangements, but he is more happy. status, you don’t need stage fright.”
Ming Teng smiled, "Grandson understands."
There are no people in the Rong family, but they are full of confidence!
In Zhouhou Mansion, Zhulan flipped through Liu Jia's selected post and said with a smile, "It's pretty good, just this one."
Liu Jia was happy after hearing this, but she was afraid that she would not have enough vision and that she would lose the face of the Rong family. "I'll go back and arrange for someone to write a post."
Zhulan smiled and nodded, "Don't be too tired to take your time."
Liu Jia understood Li waited for her daughter-in-law to leave, and said with a smile, "This child is still not confident."
Zhulan, "Take your time, who didn't figure it out a little bit."
Li said, "My daughter-in-law is sometimes in a trance when she handles the affairs of the house. I can't believe that my daughter-in-law will handle it so well."
"It's even boasting, well, you are the most powerful, and Ruzi can be taught."
Li laughed out loud and said, "I don't know what happened to Mingyun and his wife recently."
Zhulan didn't worry, "The last letter didn't say that the vegetables you planted have risen, so don't worry about the couple. I think the life of the young couple is quite enjoyable."
Mrs. Li, "It's different to have a daughter-in-law by my side."
Zhulan also laughed, it was indeed different, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about some things in the capital again, and Li suddenly said, "Prince Concubine is not too young to give birth soon."
Zhulan counted the days, "It's really fast."
