.,

And now Li Zheng is back.

In the past few years in Ottoman, apart from reading the Four Books and Five Classics, he was most interested in reading the books brought from the Western Mountains bought from the caravan, especially The Wealth of Nations.

Of course, for Li Zheng, the Wealth of Nations theory is nothing more than a trick, like a small trick. Such tricks will not bring benefits to the country. A truly benevolent monarch should practice benevolent government and rule of virtue.

But this still couldn't stop Li Zheng's enthusiasm for The Wealth of Nations.

The more he read, the more he knew about Xishan and Fang Jifan's overturning methods.

Readers are proud.

Even to the point of arrogance.

This is not because they are born this way, but... the sense of superiority given to them by the Four Books and Five Classics for hundreds of years makes them feel contemptuous of anyone.

Li Zheng, who has learned about Fang Jifan's methods, is naturally a little more arrogant

What's more, today he was beaten by that dog surnamed Fang.

Another gentle sweep.

Li Zheng suppressed the anger in his heart, took a sip of tea, and continued: "Record all the gold and silver that can be used, and tell them that they are in urgent need of cash now, and don't care about personal gains and losses at this time. This is for Osman. His Majesty the Emperor's service will be rewarded for meritorious deeds at that time, and they must be enshrined as princes and ministers. All their money and food must be estimated. If it is not enough, those immovable assets will be temporarily pledged to the bank. In a word, the old man wants Cash, inexhaustible cash."

After a pause, he continued: "This time... the old man also transferred a batch of money and food from Osman. This batch of gold coins entered the customs with the caravan and will arrive in half a month. Your Majesty attaches great importance to this matter and is waiting Good news for us."

This scribe is also a Confucian scholar, but he is an Algerian. He has a tall nose and deep eyes. He is appreciated by others because of his fast learning of Chinese literature, so he is called here.

After listening to Li Zheng's words, he was terrified and couldn't help asking, "I don't know the servant, what are you going to do?"

"That's not something you need to know, but... have you ever heard of tulips?"

tulip……

The scribe was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly understood something: "You mean...mean...but...it's not right..."

Li Zheng smiled: "You must be thinking that we have so much gold and silver in our hands, but tulips are not in our hands. You are wrong, do you know that there is one thing that is naturally tulips?"

"I don't know what?" the scribe asked in surprise.

"The mansion!" Li Zheng said confidently: "The mansion is a dead thing. Whoever strikes first can push it up. After all, useful mansions are limited. Once they are pushed up, they will inevitably lead to a rise. At that time, We have already entered at the bottom price, and others will rush in one after another, as long as it rises all the way, what if we suddenly sell at a high level?"

The clerk obviously had to be more cautious, and he said cautiously: "Master, I'm afraid this matter still needs to be considered. This Zhen Guo Mansion is not a trivial matter, and it is definitely not something that can be provoked easily. We are a dragon in the river, how can we deal with local snakes?"

"This is the interesting thing." Li Zheng smiled disapprovingly: "Actually, once the sale is made, the old man has already predicted in advance how the Zhen Guofu will deal with it. Just wait and see, Fang Jifan is just a three-legged cat. After all, he didn't study much, but he just learned some heresy techniques. I have written a charter for the specific details and submitted it to His Majesty, and His Majesty also praised it very much, thinking that there is a lot to do. Think about it, I What a sage the emperor is, he still thinks this strategy is very sure, so he ordered me to come here."

After Li Zheng said this, he looked very proud, as if he had foreseen Fang Jifan's crushing defeat.

After hearing this, the scribe felt a little more at ease in his heart.

When he thought about it carefully, what he was afraid of...was nothing more than the Zhen Guo Mansion and the Duke of Zhen Guo.

But isn't Emperor Suleiman wise enough? Since he thinks it is feasible, and has given the current Li Shilang such trust, so that he can act alone and act according to circumstances, then... it must be because he has great certainty.

"Then Chen Zhuang, have you ever investigated it?" Li Zheng couldn't help asking when he saw that these scribes were all convinced.

"Chenzhuang? This place is the fiefdom of the Duke of Zhen. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty gave him a ten-mile fiefdom of Chenzhuang. It is small, but it is at the feet of the emperor after all. Now... the Duke of Zhen has invested countless Yinzi entered Chenzhuang and built many buildings. It is strange to say, but in fact...many people have gone to inquire. Everyone thought that this building was a house, but the building was very tall and magnificent, but it It's completely different from ordinary houses."

The clerk paused, and then said: "What's more interesting is that someone checked the layout of these buildings, but found that these houses are not suitable for people to live in at all. Many people shook their heads secretly when they heard about Chen Zhuang They would never buy it. It is not a place where people live... As for the others, I don't know, but... If Li Shilang saw those buildings with his own eyes, he would be surprised by them. Daming’s pagoda is even taller.”

Li Zheng smiled and said: "Oh, no matter what, we still need to inquire again, and try our best to get something out of the people who build high-rise buildings."

"yes."

Immediately, Li Zheng waved his hand: "Very well, you all step back."

Li Zhengben was born with a dignified appearance, and his whole person was quite dignified and dignified. At first the scribes saw him with a bruised nose and swollen face, and thought it was funny, but after talking with him for a while, they saw that he spoke in a slow and unhurried manner, as if he was hiding his secrets, but it was also true.

Don't dare to make trouble with him.

The next day, Li Zheng went to the palace to have an audience. Unfortunately, the Emperor of Ming was ill, so Li Zheng came back from the Meridian Gate.

When we arrived at the embassy, ​​it was very lively, but there was already a long queue.

But it was because... many people came to visit when they heard that the new Ottoman envoy was going to take office.

The Ottoman country is very popular nowadays. Many people heard that under the rule of Emperor Suleiman, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, did not pick up things on the road, and did not close their houses at night. Not only that, the emperor also respected the corporals and treated Confucian scholars very preferentially. He read four books and five classics in everything. Those who have achieved fame can be exempted from taxation, and even followed the imperial examinations abolished by the Ming Dynasty. Many students can pass the imperial examinations based on what they have learned.

Ever since, this country's embassy is always a popular place in Beijing. Some people feel that there is no hope in Daming, and want to ask if some people like themselves will be treated favorably if they go there. There are also people who simply regard this place as the comfort in their hearts. Needless to say, since the beginning of trade, caravans have come and gone frequently. After all, the Ottomans occupy important places, and land trade cannot be circumvented. There are not a few people who come to win relations.

Li Zheng was happy to have a meeting with the guests, all of them were people with long scarves and Confucian trees. The other party was surprised at first and then delighted when they saw that the new envoy was actually a Han.

So they entered each other, took their seats, informed each other of their hometowns and names, talked about current news, and were happy, so they couldn't help but compose poems and Fu to express their feelings.

Li Zheng heard the most complaints, that is, the current emperor has not been in court for many days, and he complains about illness all the time, and the illness will not get better. Communicate and show a meaningful look.

After some more days, finally... There was news from Chen Zhuang.

Chenzhuang set up a new city, which Fang Jifan called Xishan New City, and began to sell some mansions.

As soon as the news came out, there was not much movement in Beijing.

After all... the vast majority of people have no interest in that barren land.

Of course... there are also people who are tempted.

When the new city was first opened, everyone thought it was expensive, but the facts have proved that the price has been rising all the way since then, and now, this place has become the heart of Daming, the most prosperous and prosperous place.

Even though they think so, there are not many people who actually take action...

Everyone is not stupid, they are all watching the wind.

Li Zheng suddenly became interested, and he immediately summoned the assistant officials and other officials overnight, and ordered: "Send down the order, try your best to use all the funds that can be transferred, as much as you want, those commercial firms, and the old man The thousands of jins of gold brought by Osman... From now on, everyone must create a momentum, and the mansion that has been released will be snatched by this old man."

Assistant officials and scribes, you look at me, I look at you, and look at each other.

They have stayed in Beijing for a long time, and they can be regarded as half local snakes. They know a little about the city of Beijing, and the owners of those business houses and caravans all have unclear relationships with the embassy.

Now that they are suddenly going to snap up Xishan New City, it seems... some...

"Li Shilang, aren't you being too reckless?" Someone couldn't help reminding worriedly.

Li Zheng smiled, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "Just wait and see the good show. Soon, you will know how the old man has pushed a thousand catties and put this place into a situation where there is no redemption."

Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they didn't dare to disobey, so they hurriedly contacted secretly.

On the next day...

Li Zheng arrived in Xishan New City in his own carriage.

I saw here... the frames of many high-rise buildings have begun to take shape, and people feel small when they are in them.

It's just...the project is not yet completed, but according to the old Xishan Jianye's rules, the sales place has opened, and some buildings have begun to be released slowly.

Li Zheng didn't get out of the carriage, but just sat in the carriage.

Through the glass window, he quietly watched the outside.

But at this time... a lot of people came. These people apparently had nothing to do with Osman, but they flocked in and surrounded the sales office.

"How many houses are there now?"

"Does the guest officer want to go and have a look first?"

"I don't want to see how many houses there are. The old man has made a round, and I will come to thirty or fifty first... Is the person from the bank here? The old man wants a loan, hurry up!"

Such a customer made the guys in the sales office dumbfounded. This tone...is it shopping for vegetables?
