Chapter 244 You dare to cheat me?
Seeing Qin Zheng accept the order, Zhu Shigui smiled and said, "Congratulations, Sir Qin, congratulations, Sir Qin."
Then he said to the eunuchs in the distance behind him: "Master Qin said that he would treat us to a drink. Why don't you thank Master Qin?"
Qin Zheng was stunned. When did I say that?
But, I understood immediately.
Zhu Shigui has something wrong!
"Thank you, Master Qin!"
A group of young eunuchs expressed their gratitude.
Qin Zheng ordered: "Xiaoyou, prepare a banquet for him."
"Old Zhu, please come in!"
Wu Xiaoyou hurried to make arrangements, of course, by ordering food from the restaurant.
Inside the office.
Zhu Shigui held up the tea bowl and said seriously, "Master Qin, I am from Guanxi. If I hadn't really been unable to make a living, I wouldn't have become a eunuch. I'm afraid your trip will be in vain!"
Qin Zheng knew that something was wrong with him, but he didn't expect that Zhu Shigui was from Guanxi.
This is great: "Old Zhu, tell me about the situation in Guanxi."
Zhu Shigui chuckled: "Master Qin, I've been away from Guanxi for a long time, how can I know what's going on?"
Qin Zheng was stunned. You don’t know the situation, how dare you drink from me?
At this time, Zhu Shigui looked around the office and said, "Master Qin is indeed honest. I have never seen such a simple and shabby layout. Some people actually say that Master Qin is a corrupt official. I can prove that it is absolutely not the case!"
Qin Zheng: “…”
Damn, you want benefits, right?
Okay, you wait!
Qin Zheng smiled, took out a hundred taels of silver from his sleeve, and pushed it to Zhu Shigui: "Alright, stop being so sarcastic. You just want to exchange the information for some silver, right? Take it!"
Zhu Shigui took a look at the amount and smiled.
One hundred taels, not much.
But being able to get a hundred taels from the hands of the famous stingy god is priceless.
It’s enough to make him blow it to death!
He quickly stuffed the banknote into his sleeve and chuckled, "What does Lord Qin want to know?"
Half an hour later, Zhu Shigui, his face flushed with wine, stood up and said, "Thank you, Lord Qin, for your hospitality. I'll take my leave now!"
Qin Zheng stood up with a smile: "Let's go together!"
Zhu Shigui was startled: "Where is Lord Qin going?"
Qin Zheng said expressionlessly, "You return to the palace to answer your orders. I will go to see His Majesty. Your news is too important to be reported to His Majesty. Don't worry, His Majesty won't blame you for not reporting it!"
"Ah?" Zhu Shigui sobered up immediately.
His face turned pale.
His legs softened and he fell to his knees. "Master Qin, you can't hurt me, okay? I don't want this hundred taels, okay?"
As he said this, he quickly took out the silver note and placed it on the table.
He was sure that it was the one hundred taels that caused the trouble.
At this moment, he regretted it so much. What was he thinking? He actually wanted to trick Qin Zheng, such a scoundrel?
Snatching food from the mouth of the God of Destruction is indeed seeking death!
Qin Zheng picked up the banknote, helped Zhu Shigui up, and stuffed the banknote into his sleeve, saying with a smile:
"I was just trying to scare you. You dare to trick me? Hehehe, now I feel balanced. Your information is worth a hundred taels!"
How could Qin Zheng really take back the one hundred taels? Who would dare to provide him with information in the future?
"Ah?" Zhu Shigui looked at Qin Zheng in disbelief, almost crying. "Master Qin, do you think it's too little? I'm telling you the truth. Even if you stripped us naked today, we wouldn't have any money left. Really! When we came here, we didn't even dare to bring a penny."
Qin Zheng: “…”
groove!
Am I really that ruthless?
Seemingly, as if, almost, yes!
"Okay, I'm serious. You all misunderstood me before. I was sick at that time, really!" Qin Zheng said.
Zhu Shigui: “…”
It seems to be true!
At that time, Lord Qin seemed like a madman.
It seems that the illness is cured now.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and kindly reminded him, "Master Qin, please take care of yourself. If you are sick, we need to treat you!"
After saying that, he left happily with his people.
However, next time, he would never dare to do that even if he was beaten to death.
Qin Zheng looked at their backs and felt a pain in his heart. That was one hundred taels!
Go back inside.
"Master! You guessed it right." Xia Mo Ning, who had been eavesdropping, was furious: "How could my sister do this?"
Qin Zheng: "No problem!"
I thought to myself, I already knew that serving a king is like serving a tiger!
Xia Mo Ning: "Master, I'll go with you!"
Qin Zheng shook his head: "It's not that Master doesn't want to take you, but your sister won't agree. I'm in the imperial capital, and no matter how well you do, there will always be people who say it's all my credit!"
Xia Mo Ning's eyes were slightly red: "Master, I'm sorry!"
Qin Zheng rubbed Xia Mo Ning's hair and said, "It's none of your business. Master has you as his disciple, so be content!"
"Sir, how many people should we take with us?" Wu Xiaoyou asked.
At this moment, her face was gloomy.
When has the adult ever been so angry?
But I also understand that she is the empress, who would dare to disobey her orders?
Qin Zheng: "You and Tao Yong can just follow the team. We have to keep our people in Beicheng. Lu Dong will stay and take charge!"
Wu Xiaoyou understood that the remaining special forces still had to protect the safety of the people from Hongtong County in the imperial capital.
But there are fewer people around adults!
Qin Zheng saw Wu Xiaoyou's worry and said, "The Prime Minister will go with me. He has a master!"
Xia Mo Ning was shocked: "Xia Bitu is going too? Master, how did you know?"
Qin Zheng said slowly, "If I'm not in the imperial capital and he stays here, can your sister be at ease? Besides, only if he's transferred away can we take action against Xia Jinzhong."
Qin Zheng did not hide anything from his disciple Xia Mo Ning.
As the crown prince, one must see more, know more, and experience more than others in order to be able to make plans after ascending the throne.
"Master..." Xia Mo Ning wanted to cry at this moment.
The master is caught between her sister and Xia Bitu, it's so difficult!
Qin Zheng smiled and said: "Mo Ning, work hard. When the master comes back, I hope to see my apprentice who can stand on his own!"
"Master, I won't let you down!" Xia Mo Ning said firmly.
I have already decided in my heart that I want to be the emperor, and then I can compensate my master.
She would never treat her master like that.
Qin Zheng instructed: "Mo Ning, the top priority now is not the renovation, but the department store. I can't attend the opening ceremony of the department store. But I believe that the department store will become the economic pillar of the imperial capital.
Although your sister and I have agreed that the initial profits will be used for the renovation of the Imperial Capital and Liangjin, I am worried that after I leave, someone will be interested in the small profits of the department store!"
Xia Mo Ning said, "Master, don't worry. With me here, who would dare to interfere?"
Qin Zheng shook his head: "What if it's your sister's imperial edict?"
Xia Mo Ning's expression changed.
"Xiaoyou, call Ludong!" Qin Zheng ordered.
Soon, Lu Dong walked in: "Sir!"
Qin Zheng said to Xia Mo Ning, "The first batch of goods for the department store has been delivered. But according to the agreement, each subsequent batch must be approved by me personally before it can be shipped."
Then he said to Lu Dong: "When I'm not here, the princess has the final say on the shipment of goods. Anyone's say is fine, including me."
"Yes!" Lu Dong saluted.
Xia Mo Ning understood that her master had been preparing for this long ago.
This is to restrain her sister and protect the profits of the department store!
Xia Mo Ning felt very uncomfortable.
My master is working for the court and benefiting the people, but what is her sister doing?
How could this be?
