"I have objections to this proposal."

In the study, Bai Limo said so. Just now Wu Yue put forward Murphy's plan, and everyone was talking about it. Bai Limo was the first to object.

He said: "Mr. Futu has such kindness, and Baili admires it. However, this is not feasible. Opening a bookstore is a good way to cultivate talents, but if all those orphans are to be included, the cost will be bottomless. Zhen is in the development period, and the internal bank is nervous, how can we spend money elsewhere?"

"Mr. Baili is right." Meng Quan nodded, "It is very necessary to open a bookstore. There are very few teachers in Rong Zhen, and many children from large families hire idle talents as teachers. Don't misunderstand the children. If the master opens such a library and recruits students in a centralized manner, the teachers and teachers have both ability and integrity, and the students can grow each other. How can the commoners be mixed in, and even have to be raised by the government?"

The rest of the people also agreed. In their concept, there is a difference between the noble and the lowly, and the grades are distinct, and they cannot be compared. Even talented people are divided into high and low. For example, Murphy, although he is a minister, his origin is unknown, and in the eyes of the nobles, he is only a humble scholar. Wu Yue's disciples were rich or noble, and there were very few poor disciples who depended solely on their talents to learn. Because most commoners could not read books or hire good teachers, which resulted in a situation where "all talents are noble, but poor families are of the highest quality".

Murphy had a deep understanding of this, so he didn't plan to say "everyone is equal" in harmony. She looked down at her fingers and suddenly said, "My lord, has the new commercial law been announced for a few days?"

Everyone was stunned, but she didn't expect her to suddenly change the subject.

Wu Yue nodded: "It's been six or seven days."

"How did the merchants react?"

"Mostly agree."

"Futu conjecture, they are more concerned about the management rights of several commodities, right?"

"Hmph." Wu Yue sneered.

In order to facilitate the smooth implementation of commercial law, Murphy and the rest of the talented people gathered some commodities and techniques originally exclusively owned by the official government, and selected a few of them for bidding. This is tantamount to a monopoly, in which profits are self-evident. Among them, the management right of paper is the most concerned one.

Therefore, as soon as the law came out, not only Rongzhen's businessmen were surging, but even non-local businessmen were moved by it. Although they were not eligible to participate in the bidding, they had the opportunity to cooperate with the winning bidder.

"What does Futu mean by asking this? You might as well say it directly." Bai Limo frowned.

Mo Fei looked around for a week and said lightly: "In order to obtain a franchise, the businessmen must move. I wonder what kind of adults have had a sudden increase in visitors in the past few days?"

As soon as these words came out, at least half of the people in the study froze, including even the financial master Meng Quan.

In order to obtain more benefits, the merchants all come up with a trump card - bribery, which is a gray transaction that has existed since ancient times. .

A cold light flashed in Wu Yue's eyes as he quietly looked at the people in the room.

"Don't get me wrong, lords, Futu has no other intentions." Mo Fei was expressionless.

The rest of the people looked at it, and felt as awkward as they wanted. Ah, is this still called "no other intentions"? It's purely intentional!

Murphy added: "Well, in fact, Futu has been quite free recently, but the cold house is cold and quiet, and no one visits. If you adults have guests again, you might as well invite them to Futu's residence to talk about it, and also add some popularity to Futu's family."

Everyone looked sluggish, and even Wu Yue seemed to be twitching.

"Fu Tu's remarks are not a joke. Fu Tu is very hospitable." Mo Fei said with a serious face, "Of course, you can ignore Fu Tu's request. Fu Tu doesn't mind, really doesn't mind."

Can you stop saying "I don't mind" indifferently?

"It's just that if Fu Tu has no guests, he can only go to the courtyard to harass you. For all the guests who come and go, Fu Tu will also record them one by one so that you can invite them in the future."

This is the threat of Hong Guoguo!

"Cough, Futu has such a grand intention, I believe that my 'guests' are all willing to go." Meng Quan said with an unnatural look.

"Yes, yes, Futu is famous for Rong Zhen, who doesn't admire it?" The rest nodded.

"I've won the prize." Mo Fei said indifferently, "Then Futu has been waiting for the distinguished guests these few days. Sirs, please listen carefully, Futu only entertains the 'VIP' guests these days."

"Yes, I will understand, I will understand." Everyone looked very strange, and some of the corners of their mouths even twitched, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

Bai Limo frowned, and couldn't help but say, "Didn't we just discuss the school dormitory? Does Futu still insist on taking in those orphans?"

When everyone saw that someone finally turned the topic back, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, yes, this is a question, should I take it or not?" Murphy knocked on the table and thought deeply.

This time, even Bai Limo, who was recuperating well, had the urge to run wild. Is this boy today just here to play with people?

"It's better to discuss it in a while." Murphy said, "Everyone disagrees, and Futu naturally needs to reflect on it. If he can think of a way to get the best of both worlds, it's not too late!"

Seeing that Mo Fei finally took a step back, everyone felt a little more balanced, but Bai Limo felt something was wrong no matter what he thought. Just now "he" definitely didn't say those words for no reason. What was he trying to do?

Yes! What does Murphy want to do? This is also the question in Wu Yue's heart. Just now, he thought he wanted to threaten the others with what they had given and received in private, in order to make them compromise, but then he took the initiative to ask those businessmen to come to see them. Wu Yue definitely didn't believe that he wanted to benefit.

Then... "What is Futu's plan?" Wu Yue couldn't help but ask at night.

"The straight road doesn't work, so I can only take a detour." Murphy replied.

After the discussion the next day, the Murphy Court welcomed the first big businessman.

This person's surname is Zhao, and his financial resources are ranked in the top five in Rong Zhenke. This time, he came to present some precious medicinal materials and jewelry, and his demeanor also showed enough humility.

"I heard that Lord Futu is very hospitable, so Mr. Zhao took the liberty to come to disturb him. It's a trivial idea, but it's not a respect."

Murphy looked at him as normal, obviously he hadn't heard anything from other people, and then looked at the gift in front of him, he said lightly: "I heard that you visited Master Qian a few days ago, did you also send these? ?"

"Uh," Zhao said with a flash of embarrassment on his face, "Your Excellency is joking, how can Lord Qian be able to meet you."

"Actually, I'm not interested in knowing what you gave other people, but you have to know that if you want to stand out in this auction, the decisions of the rest of the adults are innumerable. The final decision is me... and King Rong Zhen. ."

Zhao exclaimed: "It turned out to be an adult, the villain is really rude."

Murphy looked at him blankly.

"Oops." Zhao said with trembling heart, "The villain is confused, the adults are so favored, it is naturally extraordinary, the villain's humble gift is really impossible."

"Then don't take it."

Zhao Mou was startled and was about to say something.

Murphy said again: "I just ask you, do you want to win?"

Zhao gritted his teeth and nodded, "I want to."

"That's good." Murphy said, "I'll show you a clear path. This auction is not only to see who has the highest bid, but also to examine the reputation of the bidder."

"reputation?"

"That's right, Ruoguang speaks of reputation, does your government have the confidence to outperform the rest?"

"This..." Zhao was distressed at first, then looked at Mo Fei's calm expression, and immediately asked for advice, "I wonder what the lord can teach me?"

"A large number of refugees poured in during this time, because most of them have no place to live in the winter. Brother Zhao is kind, and I can't bear to see these people suffer from hunger and cold..."

Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Oh... what the lord said is very true, although Zhao is not talented, he also has a heart of compassion. Starting from tomorrow, Zhao will send people to make porridge and do good deeds."

"Brother Zhao is indeed an enthusiastic person."

"Zhao Mou has thanked the adults for the suggestion here, the small gift is a little light, and I will give a generous gift tomorrow."

Mo Fei shook his head: "No need, that's all, as an official, you must be honest and honest."

Incorruptible, you are too incorruptible!

Zhao Mou left with a strange look.

"Yuezhi, stick this on the gift." Mo Fei wrote the gift giver's name with a pen and handed it to Yuezhi next to him.

In the next few days, several big businessmen came one after another, and Murphy responded with this, but the proposals were different, or they wanted to help the victims, or to fund schools, or to build houses and bridges... In short, Listed a series of good deeds. Of course, she also picks people. She already knows the situation of Rong Zhen's major businessmen. She knows who is rich and unkind, who bullies men and women, and who has low character. For such a person, she usually sends them away after a few words, and does not accept gifts.

However, she accepted the gifts from the rest of the people who caught her eye, and she didn't even mean to refuse, so she inevitably left the impression of "greed for money" in the eyes of many businessmen. But soon, they realized that they were very wrong.

Recently, a lot of good people suddenly appeared in Rong Zhen. They paved roads and built bridges, provided porridge for free, and donated money to build schools... All kinds of actions were praised by the people, and at the same time, a large number of people took the initiative to donate. Zhen has a good atmosphere, and even in this cold winter, it also reveals a warm warmth.

Originally, those businessmen were unhappy because they felt cheated, but when they heard that their name was praised by everyone, they faintly realized the meaning.

At the same time, Murphy changed all the gifts he received into silver and clothing, and donated them to refugees or widows and elderly people in the name of each gift giver. As a result, the businessmen who benefited were all ashamed and admired.

The name of Floating Map, after this time, is truly famous all over the world!
