Daming: At the beginning, recognize Zhu Yuanzhang as grandfather!

Chapter 40 Just When I Foreshadowed Meeting You

"Has Lan Yu gone to see our eldest grandson?"

In Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang put down the memorial in his hand, frowned and looked at the Guo brothers.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Guo Zhen replied cautiously.

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, then let out a soft snort in his nose, and asked again: "Then what did he say to our eldest grandson?"

Guo Zhen replied: "It's nothing special, just chatted about some homework, and then General Lan gave His Highness his saber!"

"Oh?"

Zhu Yuanzhang let out a sigh, then waved his hands: "Go back first."

"Retire from humble position!"

The Guo brothers bowed their hands and retreated.

After the two left, Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a thoughtful expression...

……

In the past few days, two things have become popular in the capital.

The same is the refined salt sold by the Salt Transport Department, and the same is the wine sold at the No. 58 Datong Street shop.

This was completely in Huang Xiongying's expectation, just like a dam breach, as long as a hole is opened, the hole will get bigger and bigger, and finally bleed thousands of miles away.

Needless to say, the Salt Transportation Department, those officials in charge of salt affairs have become skilled. With such good quality salt, how could they not sell it?

Under their operation, refined salt was quickly spread among the elite circles of the capital.

A thousand catties of refined salt is simply not enough to sell.

Although the price kept going up, powerful people still sent people to inquire, hoping to buy more, and some even personally came forward to greet Han Yong, asking him to save some for himself as soon as he had the goods.

These dignitaries are not short of money, but good things.

Therefore, the sale of refined salt is not a problem at all, but the biggest problem for the salt transportation department is whether Cao Guogong can continue to supply such high-quality refined salt?

In the wine shop, since Huang Xiongying started this free tasting, the quality of the wine has quickly been spread by word of mouth.

Especially after Sapphire came to the winery, the children of the rich and powerful began to come to buy wine.

Once spread to ten, ten to hundreds, the wine in shop 58 spread like a virus.

It can be said that overnight, the dignitaries of the capital all set their eyes on the refined salt from the Salt Transport Department and the wine from Shop No. 58 with envy.

Because of these two things, they have greatly improved their quality of life.

Early in the morning.

In front of the shop at No. 58 on Datong Street, there was a long queue of people.

These aren't for drinking these days.

They were all servants of high-ranking officials and noble families, and they were ordered by their masters to buy wine.

Among these people was Chan'er, the servant girl of Xu's residence.

Because she was already managing the business with Miss San on Datong Street, Xu Zuhui also ordered her to bring some wine for him.

"Shopkeeper, storekeeper, I came first!"

"It's obviously me!"

"I've been queuing since the third watch!"

"Line in line, do you know who my master is, who dares to join my team?"

"..."

The wine was sold out before sunrise.

Because Huang Xiongying's wine has not yet been produced on a large scale, and many soldiers were given free drinks before, and a large jar full of sapphire was also given away, so the current production capacity is seriously insufficient.

But this also has an advantage, that is what later generations call hunger marketing.

Those servants who didn't buy it watched eagerly, and refused to leave for a long time. They repeatedly told the shop assistants that they must reserve it for themselves tomorrow.

Some people didn't know where they heard it, saying that the owner was in the store, and even wanted to force their way in to find the owner to make a reservation.

Fortunately, they were all blocked.

Early in the morning, Huang Xiongying was woken up and was very angry.

Originally, Huang Xiongying calmly drank tea in the private room of the shop, practiced calligraphy, studied rhythm and so on, but now he can't.

Now that the wine's reputation has been spread, there is no need for him to stay here any longer, he can just leave it to the Guo brothers to take care of him, and slip back to the small courtyard by the Qinhuai River by himself, where it is really comfortable.

Seeing that the noisy people outside the door had almost left, Huang Xiongying breathed a sigh of relief.

Now he only wants to make money to develop Fangshan, and he doesn't want to get involved with these dignitaries.

Looking at Zhou Ji who cheated before, to Li Jinglong, the god of war, to Lan Yu, who will soon be killed by Emperor Hongwu, none of these dignitaries made him feel at ease.

Putting on a white robe, Huang Xiongying gave some instructions to the Guo brothers, then went out, wanting to go back to the small courtyard by the Qinhuai River.

Who would have thought that as soon as he went out, he ran into Chan'er who was still waiting here.

Chan'er didn't buy wine, she was very depressed, she wanted to go back to her shop absent-mindedly, she glanced at it unintentionally, thinking she was wrong, when she looked again, she was stunned.

"Zhi... bosom friend, no way!"

Chan'er muttered to herself like a demon, and suddenly cried out excitedly.

"Ahhh!"

"Miss' bosom friend, it's really you!"

While shouting, Chan'er rushed towards Huang Xiongying who wanted to slip away.

???

Huang Xiongying frowned when he heard the sound and looked at Chan'er who was rushing towards him.

Where did this crazy girl come from?

I seem to have seen it somewhere, oh yes, the girl I met when I wanted to set up a shop last time...

What?
Just because I said a few words about their young lady last time, I still hold grudges till now?

Huang Xiongying didn't want to entangle her any longer, so he quickened his pace.

"Young master, they called you, why did you run away?"

"What are you doing running so fast?"

"Don't run away, my lady has always wanted to find you!"

Hearing this sentence, Huang Xiongying ran even faster, which made Chan'er terrified, she held up her skirt and chased after her.

The last time I scolded Miss' bosom friend away, this time, I finally met him, no matter what, I can't let him run away again!

Huang Xiongying was a little confused, what's going on?
Is this girl really crazy?
Didn't I just say a few words about her young lady? There's no need to pester her like this!
Chan'er desperately chased after her, coupled with the people coming and going on Datong Street, Huang Xiongying didn't get rid of her for a while.

Without any choice.

Huang Xiongying had no choice but to throw the book in his hand towards Chan'er.

pat!

It happened to hit Chan'er in the face, causing her to cry out in pain.

In this way, Chan'er's pursuit was delayed, but Huang Xiongying took the opportunity to disappear into the sea of ​​people...

After going back and forth, Huang Xiongying could not be found, Chan'er stomped her feet anxiously, and when she looked annoyed, she found the book that had fallen under her feet.

Chan'er had no choice but to pick up the book on the ground with a mournful face, opened it, and found that there were some things written on it.

But as a servant girl, she doesn't know a few big characters, so naturally she can't understand, so she can only take it back to show to the young lady...

Datong Street, the shop of Xu Mansion.

Originally, after Jiang Xiahou's accident, Xu Huizu planned to sell the shop, because his father Xu Da was the most cautious in his life, and he also knew that a big tree attracts wind.

And his younger sister, Xu Miaojin, was born beautiful and watery, and Yan Wang Zhu Di and Huang Sun Yunwen were both interested in her, but this girl was cold-tempered, and she was lukewarm towards these two, Xu Huizu felt a headache about this, so He even didn't want Xu Miaojin to go out to show his face, so as not to cause any trouble, it would not end well.

But this shop just didn't sell out.

At this time, in the shop.

Xu Miaojin looked at Chan'er who was out of breath, and couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong? You're so anxious!"

"I... I just..."

Panting for breath, Chan'er replied, "Just now...meet...meet a bosom friend!"

"what?"

Xu Miaojin was a little inexplicable, she pouted and said, "What!"

"No, no!"

Chan'er quickly waved her hands and said, "I have met Miss' bosom friend!"

"Oh."

Xu Miaojin said indifferently: "If you encounter it, you will encounter it. There is nothing to make a fuss about."

Chan'er scratched her little head in confusion: "Miss, don't you want to meet that man? I remember you said last time that he can understand your rhythm and is your bosom friend. You want to discuss something with him. Come on, why doesn't he seem to be interested now, do you know that I chased him for almost three blocks..."

Chan'er was a little aggrieved, Xu Miaojin looked at her and couldn't help laughing: "Everything, if you can't force it, if there is a destiny, you will meet, if there is no destiny, then there is no way, right?"

"Ah."

Chan'er nodded, and then said with a determined face: "You will definitely meet again!"

"why?"

Xu Miaojin was a little puzzled.

Chan'er said proudly: "Because that young master is also selling wine on Datong Street!"

"Master? Selling wine?"

Xu Miaojin once again showed a puzzled look.

"Yes!"

Chan'er continued to say proudly: "He is a handsome and heroic son, and the wine he sells, the master asked me to buy it early in the morning last night, but it's a pity that I still didn't buy it..."

Hearing this, Xu Miaojin finally showed some curiosity.

Even she has heard of that wine, because this wine is very popular in the capital recently!
Chan'er is like a little girl who loves CP in later generations. Whenever she recognizes this pair of CP, she unconsciously feels that they should be a couple. Extricate yourself.

That strong sense of substitution caused the dopamine in their minds to secrete crazily.

After hearing Chan'er's words, Xu Miaojin couldn't help laughing, and said: "Look at you, those who don't know think you are a matchmaker!"

"Miss, what Chan'er said is true!"

Chan'er was a little anxious as she spoke, and suddenly remembered something, and handed over a book: "By the way, this belongs to that young master, and it seems that there are some poems and other things written on it."

"Poems?"

Xu Miaojin took the book handed over by Chan'er, feeling somewhat curious in her heart.

Although she said she didn't care, she was curious about the son Chan'er was talking about, she was able to point out the shortcomings in her own rhythm, and she was able to brew wine that was popular in the capital.

It seems that this son is really not simple!

Thinking in his heart, Xu Miaojin slowly opened the book, just looking at it, his expression began to freeze, and he read softly:

"The dark plum smells the flowers, the branches hurt the bottom, the distant smell is like water, it is easy to see the spring green, the shore is like green, the shore is like green, the shore is like black green!"

"Nice poem!"

Chan'er on the side applauded loudly.

Although she can't understand it, it is plum blossom, spring and water, so it must be a good poem.

Xu Miaojin gave Chan'er a white look, and said: "It doesn't matter if it's flat or not, it doesn't make sense!"

With that said, Xu Miaojin returned the book to Chan'er with some disappointment.

"what?"

Chan'er took the book with some helplessness, she sounded very good, she was catchy, why can't she make sense of shit?

Reluctantly flipping through, Chan'er found that there were more.

"Miss, there's more to come!"

Xu Miaojin said: "Don't read it, the previous one is so unlevel, how can the latter one be any better?"

"But……"

Chan'er, who has already taken CP, still doesn't give up: "But I think it sounds good, miss read it to me!"

"I see you, you are fascinated by other people's skin!"

Xu Miaojin glared at Chan'er, who laughed twice.

He took the book and flipped it back.

Sure enough, there is still, but it is not a poem, but a song.

Xu Miaojin watched casually, but her expression gradually became a little intoxicated.

Seeing this, Chan'er asked anxiously: "How is it? Miss, don't just watch..."

Xu Miaojin lightly raised her jade hand, causing Chan'er to quickly swallow the words that came to her lips, only to hear Xu Miaojin spit out a few words softly:

"Ambush on all sides..."
