Come to Daming with military supplies

As soon as they heard that even the current emperor would come here when the business opened, the merchants immediately became more confident, and those who paid for the card came here one after another.

Today's Ming Dynasty has just experienced the famous "Cultural Propaganda Regime". It can be regarded as a prosperous country and a strong people. Many businessmen are also rich in funds, but it is nothing to do just to apply for a membership card.Those who have money directly apply for a platinum card, those with less money apply for a gold card, and some people tentatively apply for a silver card. They want to see if the Immortal Bureau is as good as Yang Fu said, and then consider applying for additional funds. Better loyalty cards.

In just seven days, the number of the first batch of registered members was counted.There are more than 40 platinum card holders, with an amount of more than 80 taels; more than 40 gold card holders, with an amount of more than one million taels; and more than [-] silver card holders, with an amount of more than [-] taels.

In just seven days, more than 200 million taels of funds were raised. As soon as the speed of this kind of money was spread, the entire capital was in an uproar.You know, because of the low taxation in the Ming Dynasty, it was basically one tax for fifteen (lower than one tax for ten now).The other is that the taxation of the Ming Dynasty is not counted as commercial tax. Commercial tax theoretically belongs to the emperor's internal money (private money), but because there is no strict policy, the emperor only relies on eunuchs to collect it.So very unstable!For example, Emperor Wanli's internal funds are richer than the national treasury!Emperor Chongzhen was as poor as a dog!

Therefore, the annual tax revenue of the entire Ming Dynasty was only four to five million taels, but Shenxianju got nearly half of the gold and silver before it opened, so it is not surprising.

In the palace, Wang Zhen couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear after receiving the report from the East Factory spies.Originally, he was worried about whether Shenxianju would bring him enough money, but now it seems that there is no need to worry at all.

At the moment, Wang Zhen ordered Dongchang and Jinyiwei not to allow anyone to harass Shenxianju in the future. On the contrary, they should strengthen the patrols nearby.

Therefore, the business of Shenxianju has been brought to a higher level. No one dares to mess around here, and no one dares to eat free food here. Under a good environment, more and more people will be attracted.

After several days of preparation, the day finally arrived.

At this time, it is the golden autumn season in the capital, and the weather is cool, neither hot nor cold.On the morning of October [-]th, at the intersection of Zhengyangmen and Damingmen, it was full of people and very lively.

It was reported to the current emperor Yingzong Zhu Qizhen before, so after the early dynasty, the originally playful emperor brought a group of civil and military ministers from the imperial city to the outer city, aiming at the Immortal Residence.

Different from the usual trips of the emperor, this time Zhu Qizhen also brought the empress Qian.

This was also specially invited by Yang Chendong. In his words, this is called the emperor's family having fun with the people is the real fun.

Of course, Wang Zhen strongly agrees with this.Under the bundle of interests, the more powerful the Shenxianju is, the more he will get in the future.

In the Queen's Palace, Qian was a little excited, because she rarely had the opportunity to travel with the emperor.For this reason, she, who has never been good at dressing up, just rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find a lot of gold and silver ornaments, and then asked the maids to help them try them one by one, and finally chose a set of outfits that seemed to be solemn enough, that is, hair. Wearing a dragon, phoenix, beaded and emerald crown, a red long-sleeved gown, a red robe, a long red skirt, and a red beige. The topknot is decorated with dragons and phoenixes, and the clothes are embroidered with golden dragons and phoenix patterns.

With such a stateliness that almost caught up with the attire of the Empress Dowager, the Qian family walked out of the palace in satisfaction, arrived on the dragon chariot, and headed straight for the Immortal Residence together with the emperor Zhu Qizhen.

When the emperor travels, safety naturally needs to be carefully considered.Along the road, Jinyiwei and Dongchang's fanzi had long been covered, and thousands of people were mobilized, until the streets outside Shenxianju were filled with their figures.

Regarding this, Yang Chendong, who had already arrived at Shenxianju, did not raise the slightest disagreement.Although many people could not get close to the Immortal House because of the appearance of Fanzi, it was not originally a consumption place for ordinary people.Besides, it is said that it is to have fun with the people. There are too many people here, and the safety cannot be taken into account. If something happens, then this signboard will be completely smashed.

The common people couldn't come forward, which made the front of the Immortal Residence much more empty. Here, there was already a red carpet with a length of hundreds of meters on the floor. It was very eye-catching from a distance. This is what Yang Chendong did to welcome the emperor. According to the arrangement, walking the red carpet all the way to the Immortal Residence, enjoying the attention of all the eyes, the audience changed from ministers to ordinary people, and it was considered to be having fun with the people.

When the emperor's dragon chariot arrived at one end of the red carpet, Yang Chendong had already been waiting here in Tsing Yi.

Not wearing official uniforms, only wearing Tsing Yi, it seems that Yang Chendong is the only one in the whole dynasty.Others are afraid that others will not know his identity, only this young master, no matter what others think of him, he still does his own thing.

"I kneel to welcome the emperor, empress, long live, please get off the chariot and walk." Yang Chendong knelt on the red carpet and said in a loud voice.

Chapter 99 First cut

In normal times, this would be stopping the holy driver, which is definitely a serious crime.But today, no matter whether it is the guards of the palace or the ministers, no one stopped it, as if all this was so natural.

"Hehe, it's Yang Aiqing, that's it, Queen, let's get off the chariot together and see what tricks he is up to." Yingzong Zhu Qizhen seemed to be in a good mood, and amidst loud laughter, he was dressed in a yellow golden dragon suit. He helped Empress Qian onto the dragon chariot and onto the red carpet.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live." Just as he landed and stood firmly, when he landed, there were shouts from left and right.A group of common people who came to watch the scene instinctively knelt down on the ground the moment they saw the holy face. In addition, there were many people in the crowd who Yang Chendong had arranged to guide them, and they immediately shouted "Long live" Four times, its momentum is huge, far louder than the voices of those ministers in the court.

First he was shocked, Yingzong instinctively thought that there was some danger, he wanted to turn around and ran, but when he saw the voice of the people shouting long live, he smiled dumbly, and then he raised his hand very generously towards the crowd Said, "All the people are flat."

"Thank you, long live." All the people who watched the excitement got up from the ground one by one, and then looked at Zhu Qizhen with excited expressions. There was admiration in that expression, but more envy.

It seems that he enjoys this kind of gaze, Zhu Qizhen's speed is not fast, it feels like he is taking care of Empress Qian, but in fact he is enjoying this moment of much attention.

Regarding this, Yang Chendong seemed to be unaware, leading the way ahead, looking around from time to time, using his insight to observe whether there was any danger around.

Although the surrounding area has long been filled with spies from Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and a lot of people from the Security Bureau have also been sent, but they are not afraid of [-], just in case. If something really happened to Yingzong today, would he not Fleeing is about to revolt.

Fortunately, along the way, there were no accidents at a distance of hundreds of meters. Although the people were curious about what the emperor looked like, under the stern eyes of Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Wucheng Bingmasi soldiers, no one was there. Have the guts to disrupt order and make trouble.

In this way, Yingzong held Queen Qian's hand and walked slowly forward step by step. Along the way, he frequently raised his hand to the surrounding people to show his majesty as the emperor.

Just like this, when he walked halfway to the distance, shouts suddenly burst out, completely covering up the noisy discussions around him.

"In our Great Ming, the mountains are high heads; in our great Ming, rivers flow like hot blood; in our great Ming, the trees are rooted to each other; in our great Ming, the clouds hold hands! In the wilderness, jade belts are wrapped, and in the fields weaving colored silk. In the Ming Dynasty, the wind suddenly rises, and the Ming Dynasty is majestic. Shocking Roar!"

As soon as the majestic singing sounded, everyone was shocked at first, and then the guard general Fan Zhong wanted to rush out from the side to protect the emperor.Even Empress Qian was a little pale at this moment.

Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, on the other hand, was surprised at first, but after he understood what the crowd was singing, he suddenly burst out laughing, "Okay, what a mighty and majestic singing voice, with good words and good music. Yang Aiqing, is this the new song that people say? "

Yang Chendong, who was called, lamented that he was worthy of being an emperor, and his quick response and calm strength were very human.Then he strode over and said, "Your Majesty, this is the new song composed by my minister, and it's called our Daming."

"It's a good song for our Ming Dynasty, good, good, it's a reward." Zhu Qizhen was very happy when he heard the song sung by fifty male waiters from Shenxianju among the surrounding crowd. Character.

"Thank the emperor for the reward." Yang Chendong also looked overjoyed, thanking the emperor on behalf of those 50 people.

"Hahaha, not bad, not bad." A hymn made Zhu Qizhen very happy, and when he walked next, his steps seemed to be much lighter.

"Our Great Ming has many beautiful mountains and rivers; our Great Ming has rich products; our Great Ming has the most industrious people, and our Great Ming is even more romantic now! We meet guests from all over the world, make friends from five continents, the great Ming wind blows, and the great Ming roars loudly."

Walking along the way, listening to the singing of our Daming, Yingzong Zhu Qizhen felt a little smug.

Not only the emperor, but also the officials who followed behind him felt very refreshed when they heard this majestic singing.Some officials who were originally dismissive of the so-called new song began to pay attention to it at this moment.Only then did they feel that if a piece of music is completed, it may really have an exciting effect.

"Our Ming Dynasty" was sung over and over again, and when the third time was sung, Yingzong and Empress Qian had already arrived at the gate of Shenxianju.I saw that the place was covered by red silk and satin everywhere, like a sea of ​​red.

"Your Majesty, Empress, I dare you to come forward and cut the ribbon two by two. Also, please come forward together with Lord Hu Minghu." Yang Chendong knelt down on the ground again, begging loudly.

"Cutting the ribbon? What's the reason?" Yingzong asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, cutting the ribbon means cutting off the ribbon, which symbolizes the auspicious opening of the new store." Yang Chendong replied with a smile on his face.

"It's interesting, Yang Aiqing will look at the arrangement." Yingzong also wanted to see what the ribbon-cutting was, so he agreed immediately.

The emperor agreed, and the queen naturally agreed with a nod and a smile.Empress Qian is also a generation of beauties with good conduct.Both of them agreed, and among the courtiers, Hu Wei, the Minister of Rites, couldn't refuse, so he walked up to the ribbon-cutting platform in front of the Immortal Residence, wearing a formal second-rank official uniform.

In front of a window on the second floor of Shenxianju, a young girl saw Hu Wei walking up to the stage, and immediately shouted excitedly: "Miss, miss, look, the elder is also on the stage, just stand there By the emperor's side."

"Okay, I saw it. Also, Xiaoqing, don't be surprised here, okay, if someone hears it, it should be said that our Hu family girls are not educated." Hu Yan, the young lady, pretended to be annoyed and glared at Xiaoqing, the maid beside her, and then looked at the ribbon-cutting stage with a sweet face. When she saw that there were only the emperor, queen, grandfather, and Yang Chendong on the stage, , There was a burst of joy on his face.

So many ministers refused to call, but called their grandfather to the stage. Is this implying something?

Hu Yan thought smartly, thinking that this was Yang Chendong's intentional arrangement, in order to enhance her grandfather's prestige, and at the same time express a special feeling for the Hu family, which moved her very much and regretted it very much.

Regrettably, she knew about Yang Chendong's assassination after a long time.Hu Changning knew his daughter's temperament, so he issued a strict order that no one can tell the matter.It wasn't until later when Hu Yan went to play with Yang Duo that she found out about it, and immediately cried anxiously.He even pestered Seventh Sister to go to Yangjiazhuang, and felt relieved when he saw that Yang Chendong was still alive and well.

How could Yang Duo, who came here, not see Hu Yan's meaning for the seventh brother?Immediately, he smiled and asked the seventh brother to give Hu Yan a gift, which was worthy of his worries.

After Yang Chendong thought for a while, he directly gave Hu Yan the most honorable Shenxianju Supreme Card in his hand, and invited her to attend the opening ceremony of Shenxianju.

With this card, Hu Yan is equivalent to having a privilege. Before the entire Immortal Residence was opened to the public, she had the right to enter in advance, and thus became the first place to witness the prosperity here.Today, she even took her maid Xiaoqing to the second floor of the Immortal Residence ahead of time with her card, and found the best place to watch the entire opening process.

Hu Yan is sweet with all her heart.But she didn't know that it was not because of her that Yang Chendong called Hu Wei to the stage, but because among the civil servants, Hu Wei was the oldest at 73 years old.This is based on the idea of ​​respecting the old and loving the young, so Hu Wei was invited to the stage.

In fact, Yang Chendong also wanted to invite the British public Zhang Fu to the stage. This person is also 73 years old now, but considering this person's disagreement with Wang Zhen and the others, he didn't go out of his way.
