Emperor Chongzhen was really surprised: "Who will send 300,000 taels of silver tomorrow?"

Zhu Cixuan's mind was running rapidly, and he was about to organize a language to explain to his father. Chongzhen immediately became suspicious. He looked at Zhu Cixuan up and down: "Son, you won't be thinking about your grandpa again."

After all, it was his own son. Chongzhen actually knew Zhu Cilang. This surprised Zhu Cilang, but at the same time he became a little nervous: "Yes, my grandfather said that he would give 300,000 taels of silver tomorrow and donate silver to the court to help the court."

"Nonsense," Chongzhen thought about it and it was his son's destruction: "Say, what's the handle your grandfather has fallen into your hands. I heard that the Xishan Glass Factory had just made some profits, and your grandfather finally made some money. You can trick him into it, and who will I leave this glass factory to take care of in the future?"

Chongzhen knew that Zhu Cilang, the glass factory, had no time to manage it. This brat was busy training and wanted to fight immediately, and even Jiannu from Liaodong ignored it.

This is good news. My Ming Dynasty was the world that I got on the back of a horse. Chongzhen was actually very pleased that his son could have such blood.

In prosperous times, benevolent monarchs are needed, and in troubled times, we need emperors who can fight and command all directions. Either you have the ability to know people, use some powerful generals like Yue Fei.

But Yue Fei was a good general who was hard to produce in a thousand years. There was no such talent in the Ming Dynasty. Even if there were, Chongzhen was not at ease. Now his son is very good at fighting, which made Chongzhen very pleased.

But Xishan Glass Factory must have a personal management, and its government affairs are so busy. Who is Xishan giving it to? Only Zhou Kui is the most suitable management for Zhou Kui.

If it is handed over to outsiders, such as Zhao Datou of Xishan Glass Factory, they will not seek merit but not make mistakes, and the glass factory will never grow and grow in their hands.

It’s different to give Zhou Kui. The profit of Xishan Glass Factory is linked to its own performance. The higher the profit, the more money you share, the more you pay, and Zhou Kui will naturally do his best.

However, the son must have caught Zhou Kui and forced him to donate money again. In this way, Zhou Kui still has the intention to focus on the glass factory.

It would be fine if you cheat others once or twice, but if you cheat for a long time, Zhou Kui will eventually find that no matter how much money he earns, he will work for the old Zhu family. Sometimes the money he earns is taken away by open and guns before he can get warm.

Zhu Cilang had no choice but to tell him: "Father, I really can't blame my son. My grandfather made a mess of Xishan glass factory, and almost couldn't even pay the wages of the craftsmen."

Chongzhen was stunned, and then realized something was wrong, and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

"My grandpa, it was him who maliciously hoarded glass and raised the price. Father, you don't know that he dared to sell three taels of silver for three feet square glass, and the retail price in Beijing was as high as five taels. A large amount of glass was unsold, and the Xishan Glass Factory almost collapsed."

this...

This was beyond Chongzhen's expectations, but it was not surprising to think about it carefully. Zhou Kui was so stingy that it was extremely stingy, which was very similar to what he did. The glass would rather be smashed into his own hands than to sell it at a lower price.

This time, Chongzhen couldn't help but sigh: "Three taels of silver are really too much."

"It's not just an excessive matter. My father, Xishan must not be left to my grandfather for handling. My son has dared to inform Zhao Datou that all the glass will be at fifty cents from now on, and the price will never increase."

Chongzhen was shocked: "Never increase the price? Then, there will be profits."

Zhu Cilang smiled slightly: "There is still half the gross profit, and the stockpiling of goods in Xishan has been snatched up and the orders are also half a year later."

Chongzhen took a deep breath and his son was still a business item. However, this kid should not be too indulgent at a young age, and he would have to beat him up frequently after all.

"Hmph, even so, you can't force your grandpa to donate 300,000 taels. I ask you, what are you doing."

After all, this kind of thing can't be hidden from Chongzhen. Especially when you brought Zhou Kui to the imperial prison, someone from the Jinyiwei must have told Chongzhen.

Although Zhu Cixuan, as the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei, actually took charge of the Jinyiwei, after all, the Jinyiwei belonged to Chongzhen. Most of them were loyal to Emperor Chongzhen, rather than all of them were loyal to Zhu Cixuan.

This is also one of the reasons why Chongzhen was relieved to hand over the Jinyiwei to his son for handling. In fact, since Zhu Cixuan had the Hu Ben Army, he did not like to use Jinyiwei very much. It is because many of the Jinyiwei were Chongzhen's loyalty. Zhu Cixuan always had too many concerns when doing some things.

"My son has put my grandfather in the imperial prison for one day."

"What, you ignorant son!" Chongzhen angrily slapped the table: "What's your grandpa's guilt?"

Zhu Cilang was not afraid of fear: "With embezzlement of military rations, his heart is punishable!"

Chongzhen's head buzzed, and he knew what it meant to embezzle military rations. Zhu Cilang did not hide anything at all, and told Chongzhen everything. Chongzhen's face turned pale. Now he no longer felt guilty about Zhou Kui, but was angry.

"Father, this matter has passed. And my grandfather has basically turned over all the money that he has greedy over the years. If my father still wants to punish him, he may lose face with our royal family. Father, you should take this matter to your son to deal with it."

Chongzhen clenched his fist tightly and punched the table. He did not hate Zhou Kui, but all the officials in the Ming Dynasty: "Is this officialdom so unbearable? They dare to embezzle military rations. This is found out, and those who have not found out, how much are these officials greedy for..."

Zhu Cilang didn't have a specific number of greed for him. He could only remain silent, and he couldn't say such things. After all, he had to check Fan Yongdou and swallowed 10 million. If he found out, Zhou Kui's fate would not be better.

After a while, Zhu Cilang sighed: "Father, you cannot generalize everything by any means. Sometimes, maybe it is also because of the officialdom. My grandfather has made contributions to the court."

This is enough. Zhou Kui has indeed made contributions at present. Without the money he donated, Liaodong would have been in chaos.

Chongzhen closed his eyes gently and sighed tiredly: "I can not pursue the case of the father-in-law, Pu Yuquan, the death penalty."

Zhu Cilang deeply agrees with this old thing Pu Yuquan. As long as Zhou Kui's case can be settled, Chongzhen will not be punished.

On the second day, Zhou Kui really wrote a letter saying that he would donate 300,000 taels of maternal property to the court. Chongzhen was very resentful and still praised the selflessness of the country's father-in-law on the surface. He made all the civil and military officials unable to come to Taiwan, and the country's father-in-law donated money with great wealth. Isn't this slap us in the face?
