Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 114 The Correct Usage of Jin Yiwei
Zhu Yunxi was listening enthusiastically to Lan Yu's bragging, when he suddenly heard the bad old man calling him, he felt unhappy.

Lan Yu hastily pushed her nephew and motioned for him to coax old Zhutou.

"good!"

"Go and sit with your grandpa. When you have time later, uncle and grandpa will tell you about fishing in the sea!"

"Oh!"

Zhu Yunxi reluctantly sat next to Lao Zhu, but Lao Zhu didn't speak, but just tapped the plate of shrimp with his chopsticks.

Lan Yu almost burst out laughing when she saw this scene, did this old Zhutou overturn the vinegar pot, the nephew just grilled a shrimp for us, is it so sour?

Zhu Yunxi looked at Lao Zhu in puzzlement, thinking what does this mean, could it be that he asked me to grill shrimp for him?

hum!

Let you always scare me with a whip, so I won't grill shrimp for you!

While chatting with Lan Yu, Lao Zhu stole a peek at Ni Sun, and seeing that he only cared about eating prawns for himself, and didn't care about himself as a bad old man, he felt uncomfortable for a while.

"Let's think about it just now, Zhu Yunxi is still young, we're afraid he won't be able to hold on, so let's enroll your thousands of adoptive sons in the Habayashi Guard..."

"Grandpa, you eat shrimp!"

"we……"

Zhu Yunxi didn't give Lao Zhu a chance to refuse at all, and directly stuffed the shrimp into his mouth.

"Let's talk business!"

"Grandpa Huang, talk slowly, and grandson will grill shrimp for you!"

"Sapphire, where did we just talk about?"

"You just said that you should try to finish the fight before winter, and don't delay until the twelfth lunar month, which will only increase the damage of soldiers!"

"oh oh……"

Lao Zhu pretended to have suddenly realized, and continued to discuss the details of the Northern Expedition with Lan Yu according to Dasun's reminder, and never mentioned the matter of reforming the Habayashi Guard.

Although Lao Zhu didn't mention it anymore, Zhu Yunxi still didn't dare to take it lightly, he picked up a plate of shrimps and put them all in Lao Zhu's bowl, for fear that the narrow-minded grandpa would say anything about Habayashi Guard to scare him .

Lao Zhu and Lan Yu finalized the strategy of the Northern Expedition and ended the dinner. Not only did he personally send Lan Yu outside the palace, but he also specially ordered Zhu Yunxi to send Lan Yu out of the palace.

"Yunxi, send your uncle and grandpa off for us, and then you can go back to the palace and do your homework."

"okay!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this was the case, he agreed happily, and rushed forward, pestering Lan Yu to tell him what he hadn't finished bragging about just now.

Lao Zhu watched his grandson keep inquiring about Yu'erhai, and couldn't help showing a helpless wry smile on his face.

The reason why he prefers the prince Zhu Biao is that he hopes that he, the Emperor Wu, will rule the country, and then hand it over to Zhu Biao, the Emperor Wen, to rule the country.

However, seeing that Ni Sun is so interested in military affairs, maybe Daming's successor is Emperor Wu again!
No!

I have to find some great Confucian students to teach, even if I can't teach this child to be a humble gentleman like his father, I can't make him think about fighting all day long.

Just who to turn to?

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu couldn't help feeling troubled, and even faintly regretted it.

Because he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of a few great Confucians who should be used.

"Ugh!"

"If I had known today, we wouldn't have killed so hard these years..."

On the other side, Lan Yu and Zhu Yunxi walked to the gate of the palace, when Lan Yu was about to get into the carriage, he suddenly grabbed his hand and handed him a waist card.

"Nephew, take this card with you. If you need money in the future, you can go to your uncle's house to get it."

"Uncle and grandpa have already told the people in the house that you can take as much as you have in the account!"

Zhu Yunxi was very moved when he heard the words, but he is not short of money now, so there is no need to take the Sapphire brand.

"Grandpa, I'm rich now. I just made 1 taels of silver a while ago. It's enough for me to spend a long time!"

Sapphire stared with round eyes and said displeasedly.

"What is that little money enough for? It's not enough to build a doghouse!"

"We give you the badge and you take it, why are there so many nonsense!"

"But there is one thing I have to tell you, our money is not for you to spend carelessly!"

"Uncle and grandpa estimate that your grandpa will be short of money in a while. If he is really short of money, you will take the lead in donating money to the court to show your loyalty to the country!"

"Others donate [-], you donate [-]. Others donate [-], you donate [-]!"

"If the silver at my uncle's house is not enough, you can take our cards and borrow them from the house of another general, Xungui, and then my uncle will pay them back for you!"

In fact, this is just Lan Yu's wishful thinking. Zhu Yuanzhang is such an arrogant person, even if he is short of money, he will not let others donate money.

When Zhu Yunxi saw Lan Yu say this, he no longer refused, and he also gave full play to his subjective initiative to think, if he gave the money earned by the bookstore to the imperial court as military expenses, would he be able to move the old man to tears?
However, this idea was stifled by him as soon as it arose.

My own palace has not yet been built, and the palace on the fief has not yet been seen. There are so many places waiting for money, where can I get spare money for the court?
Early the next morning, as soon as Zhu Yunxi came to Dabentang, he saw Zhu Gui running over with a smile on his face.

"Eldest nephew, you are rich again!"

"How to get rich?"

"We haven't started selling the second volume yet, where's the money..."

Zhu Gui interrupted Zhu Yunxi and explained with a smile.

"It's not about selling books, it's about your emerald cabbage!"

"Yesterday, my guard went to the pawnshop to redeem the pawn. The owner of the pawnshop said that the pawnshop was burglarized the day before yesterday, and the emerald cabbage was stolen. According to the usual practice, we will pay us five times the money!"

"At that time, the emerald cabbage pawned 7000 taels of silver. Now they pay us five times the price, which is 5000 taels!"

"I asked someone to estimate it. Even if it is sold, it will only be more than 3 taels of silver, and we may not be able to find a suitable buyer. The pawnshop paid us 5000 taels, which is not a loss at first glance!"

"I've already brought back the silver, and I've brought you back the other gold and silver jewelry, as well as your broken pillow!"

"Oh……"

When Zhu Yunxi heard that he had suddenly made 5000 taels of silver, his heart didn't fluctuate at all.

After all, he is staying in the palace every day now, so there is really no place to spend money.

In his eyes, there is no difference between 1 taels of silver and 10 taels of silver, they are just a series of numbers.

"Since we are not short of money now, Uncle Thirteen, you should spend some money to repair your palace. At least it will be better than a kennel!"

When Zhu Gui heard this, he hugged his eldest nephew and said thank you repeatedly.

"Nephew, Thirteenth Uncle didn't love you in vain, I didn't expect you to remember Thirteenth Uncle's palace, woooooo..."

"Hey hey hey!"

"Let go, if you don't let go, I won't give you money to repair the palace!"

Hearing this, Zhu Gui hurriedly let go of his eldest nephew, and carefully straightened his wrinkled clothes for him, and straightened his collar.

"Although we have money now, we can't spend it indiscriminately!"

"You take 5000 taels of silver first to buy all the furniture in the palace, and then tidy up a few wing rooms."

"Look for someone to lay stones in the pond, and raise some fish in it."

"Let's not compare with Second Uncle, as long as we can get by on the outside!"

"Yeah, everything is up to the eldest nephew, and we can do whatever the eldest nephew says!"

"After the palace is repaired, you have to write a letter to your father, telling me to move out and live with you!"

"This……"

When Zhu Gui heard this condition, he dared not accept it immediately.

"Eldest nephew, I'm afraid it's not easy to handle this matter!"

"Not easy?"

"Then I won't help you build the palace, I will save the money to buy land and build a house myself!"

Seeing that his elder nephew wanted to take back the money, Zhu Gui immediately changed his mind and agreed.

"manage!"

"It must be done!"

"I'm going to ask my concubine to find a way for you!"

"If the concubine mother speaks, your grandpa will definitely agree!"

Seeing what Zhu Gui said, Zhu Yunxi showed a satisfied smile.As everyone knows, Zhu Gui is completely fooling him, thinking in his heart to repair the palace first, as to whether he can convince his father to agree to the grandson moving out...

When the palace is finished and the money is spent, can the grandson tear down the house?
……

In the next few days, while Zhu Yunxi was busy with the business of the bookstore, he was busy with Qi Tai, Zhu Zhi, and Zhu Gui rushing to draft.

With Qi Tai as a quick shooter, they wrote the book super fast. Before the second volume was released, they finished writing 99 chapters of Jin Ping Mei.

As for why there is one chapter left, it is because Zhu Yunxi intends to write it himself.

One is to enhance my sense of creative participation, and the other is to maintain the mystery of the ending.

That guy Qi Tai has the ability to never forget, if he accidentally misses the ending, what will he do to make money in the future?

The second volume of Jin Ping Mei was released, which directly caused a sensation in the capital. Before the bookstore opened, thousands of people were already crowded outside.

Although Zhu Yunxi had long expected that the sales volume of the second volume would explode and had prepared the goods in advance, he still underestimated the enthusiasm of the people in the capital for reading.

The [-] books prepared in advance were sold out in less than a day.

Then he continued to print and sell books. Just when his second volume had just sold [-] copies, the number of customers in Sanwei Bookstore dropped a lot.

Bookstore clerk Ding Hao (the former Jin Yi, whose name was changed to another fan because the big boss said the play) saw this scene, and hurried to report to Zhu Yunxi like an ant on a hot pot.

"Your Highness, something is wrong. The bookstore's sales have fallen sharply. It should be that other bookstores have copied it!"

"Today, the second volume of Jin Ping Mei only sold a few hundred copies, and the first volume only sold a dozen copies, which is a big difference from the past!"

"Let's stop sticking to our own store, distribute the books, and let other bookstores follow suit!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard the buddy's complaint, he immediately became unhappy.

"What a joke!"

"I just want to be exclusive, only in this way can the brand of our Sanwei Bookstore be launched as quickly as possible!"

Ding Hao was so anxious that he almost cried when he saw that His Royal Highness was still obsessed with it.

"Your Highness, what about the imitation of other stores, we can't prevent it at all!"

"Can't you prevent it?"

Zhu Yunxi smiled confidently, he had thought of this step a long time ago, and had prepared countermeasures in advance.

"I can't see it, can I?"

"Uncle Thirteen, send the Jinyiwei's dividends to them later, and tell them to investigate who is imitating our book!"

"I still don't believe it, I can't control this unhealthy trend!"

"I, Zhu Yunxi, want to fire the first shot against piracy in Daming!"

"Whoever dares to steal my book, I will arrest him and put him in the Jinyiwei Prison, peel his skin, constrict his tendons, hang him on the beam of the house and bleed him!"

　Hey, the monthly ticket is almost [-], so beg your cheek to see if you can get [-] to draw a prize, wow quack!
