Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 166 Initial results, shocking Zhu Yuanzhang
Seeing Zhu Di stepping out quickly, Zhou Shixian hurriedly bowed respectfully and saluted: "Greetings to Mr. Zhu, my father wrote a letter home, and there is a letter to Mr. Zhu..."

"Give it to me quickly." Zhu Di hurriedly stretched out his hand to ask for it.

From Zhou Shixian's words, it is not difficult to judge that Zhou Lang is fine.

Zhou Shixian hurriedly handed the letter to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di opened the letter on the spot...

"Okay!" After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, shook his letter, and gave a big praise with a smile.

Xu Miaoyun was unable to move and did not come out. Standing at the door of the office room, she couldn't help laughing when she heard Zhu Di's laughter.

Don't look at Shiro during this time, it seems to be very calm.

Can be used as a pillow man.

She knew that Shiro had been worried about Fort Xining.

After all, he was the one who made the original plan.

His plan was to get Second Brother Qiu and others to gain a foothold in Liaodong, but if he failed, he would suffer heavy losses and even die without a place to bury him.

Although as a guard post on the border, the commanding general has certain autonomy.

You don't need to ask Feng Sheng for permission to fight everything.

But this time, the plan itself was a secret rivalry with Feng Sheng and a veiled dialogue.

It is a very risky provocative behavior for a subordinate to a superior to use this method to conceal the dialogue.

If you win, everything is easy to say.

Can be defeated.

Feng Sheng can use this as an excuse to target Xining Fort.

Now it seems, at least not lost.

No matter how big the loss is, as long as he wins on the battlefield, Xiningbao will win this veiled conversation with his immediate superior Feng Sheng.

outside the shrine.

Zhu Di read it carefully again, and then folded the letter, "How did your father write about his experience in the war in his home letter?"

"My father bragged about how brave he was in his family letter. In his letter to his family, he wrote that he was one against ten, but in the letter to Jiang Xianzun, it became one against a hundred..."

'Honest boy, your father knows and will beat you to death! '

Hearing that Zhou Shixian sold Zhou Lang completely, Zhu Di couldn't help laughing, and patted Zhou Shixian on the shoulder, "It's been a hard journey, go in and have a glass of water, is there any difficulty in your family? If you need help, you can tell me .”

Zhou Shixian shook his head hurriedly.

When my father left, he explained that he can learn from Mr. Zhu, and he can also ask Mr. Zhu for help when encountering difficulties that cannot be solved.

But if you can't meet something, just trouble Mr. Zhu.

"Although my father has gone to Liaodong, he still has some influence in the county. Jiang Xianzun also took special care of him. There is no trouble in the family for the time being."

Zhu Di listened patiently, and said with a smile, "Okay, we're holding a village meeting in the ancestral hall, let's go in and have a glass of water..."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhu." Zhou Shixian bowed in gratitude.

He wants to gain knowledge.

After returning, Zhu Di first arranged for Zhou Shixian to go to the office, and then handed the letter to Xu Miaoyun.

After Xu Miaoyun read it, she pointed to a certain place in the letter, "Uncle Feng almost fell, the eagle sent by Xining Fort broke its cage and fluttered its wings. Your trick has dealt him a big blow!"

"I heard from my father that Uncle Feng is very elegant and easy-going on the surface, but in fact, he has a very strong self-esteem."

Feng Sheng is planning to target Brother Qiu and others.

But Shiro was the first to use such a trick to help Brother Qiu and others to show their strength, and even had a hidden conversation with Feng Sheng in the identity of a thousand households, a subordinate to a superior.

I'm afraid this is the biggest failure and humiliation that Feng Sheng suffered after living for so many years.

Xu Miaoyun raised her head worriedly, "I hope Uncle Feng won't find out that all this was planned by you in Tuqiao Village. I always feel that Uncle Feng is not a generous person."

Seeing that Xu Miaoyun was worried, Zhu Di smiled easily and said, "Don't worry, there is a high probability that he won't know."

What happened this time, even the royal father who controlled Jin Yiwei didn't notice it.

Obviously, Zhou Lang was ignored.

Not to mention Feng Sheng.

"Go to class."

Xu Miaoyun thought about it and felt relieved.

Zhu Di sent Xu Miaoyun to the classroom, returned to the office room, and introduced to everyone: "Uncle Ba, this is Zhou Shixian, Zhou Lang's eldest son."

"Shixian, this is the eighth uncle, the fourth uncle..."

After introducing each other to everyone.

Zhu Di filled Zhou Shixian's teacup and resumed the topic just now, "Uncle Eight, what do you think about the ten war horses, should we sell them for cattle, mules, and donkeys, or keep them?"

"Mr. Zhu is such a capable person, can't he directly decide on such a small matter?" '

Zhou Shixian watched from the sidelines, wondering curiously.

Uncle Ba smiled and said, "Silang, everyone was really reluctant at first, but after thinking about it, war horses are not practical for us..."

War horses are not suitable for farming.

Using a horse-drawn cart is a waste of money.

"We thought about it and chose the two best horses to keep for the young people and children in the village to practice riding. If the children in the village want to join the army in the future, they also have skills."

"The rest were sold and replaced with oxen and donkeys."

"Everyone thinks so?" Zhu Di asked everyone, and after getting the confirmation, he decided with a smile, "Well, then this matter is decided like this. Since we are not busy in the near future, let's take some time to take the horse and go to Jiangning County. At the market, find a way to sell the eight war horses and replace them with donkeys and cattle."

……

The crowd built around the rural community again, chatted for a while, and then dispersed.

When Zhu Di sent Zhou Shixian away.

Zhou Shixian plucked up his courage and asked curiously: "Mr. Zhu, the issue of animal replacement just now is so small, I think you can decide it."

"You decide, and the folks will definitely not object. Why do you waste so much time and energy for the folks to discuss?"

Hearing this, Zhu Di smiled, "First of all, after discussing with Bashu and others just now, the decision made is very good."

It is impossible for him to be the leader in Tuqiao Village all the time.

Cultivating everyone's discussion is to subtly teach everyone how to think and how to make decisions collectively.

In the future, he also wants to take Miao Yun to travel around the world and visit famous mountains in Dachuan.

What's more, if the old man pushes too hard, he may have to become an official.

"Perhaps, I will have a better decision, but it may not be the most in line with the wishes of the villagers."

"When doing one thing, we should not pursue the best interests of one side, but also fully consider whether what we do can be accepted and make people feel comfortable."

"Being a person and doing things, don't try to impose your own ideas on others."

……

Zhou Shixian pondered hard, and when Zhu Di finished speaking, he thanked and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for your suggestion. Mr. Zhu, I can help you go to the livestock market in Jiangning County to find out the market and contact buyers."

"Okay! Then I will leave this matter to you."

Seeing that Zhu Di agreed, Zhou Shi seemed very encouraged, and shook his head with an excited smile.

After saying goodbye, he hurriedly left.

……

the following days.

The children were preparing for the children's exams, while Zhu Di continued to take care of Xu Miaoyun while busy with the construction of rural villages.

It's almost March.

The grain in the village was finally sold at a price [-]% higher than last year's autumn harvest.

The fifty bolts of cloth woven by the village children and aunts were also bought by the largest silk and satin shop in Jiangning County when they went to Jiangning County to sell war horses and replace livestock.

The other party also proposed.

As long as this quality can be guaranteed, there are as many as you want.

Zhu Di didn't know that this silk and satin village was a stronghold of Jinyiwei.

One of them was quickly taken as a sample and sent to Mao Xiang.

Royal Palace.

Mao Xiang hurried to the palace with a piece of pure white cotton cloth that had not yet been dyed.

Walking to the steps, I met Li Shanchang, the Korean public, who was wearing a red and purple robe, and walked down the steps in high spirits.

This Korean male has been very popular in the near future.

to the end of the year.

That is, during the period when Zhu Silang went outside the customs, Princess Lin'an Zhu Jingjing married his eldest son Li Qi.

Become a son-in-law.

After February this year, His Majesty formally consulted Wei Guogong for his opinion, and Wei Guogong insisted on resigning from the post of Zuo Dudu.

His Majesty finally agreed.

Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong was officially appointed as the left governor, in charge of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

His Majesty did not appoint the right governor, but at the same time ordered Li Shanchang, the Duke of Korea, to continue to assist Li Wenzhong.

Li Shanchang is now in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. Although he has no actual official position, his power is equivalent to that of the Right Governor.

At the same time, His Majesty added a Yushitai to Li Shanchang, the status of Yushi Doctor.

No, in the past period of time, the Han Gonggong who had retired from his job and put on coarse linen clothes again, changed into a purple robe again, and he was full of vigor.

"The next official pays homage to Han Hangong." Mao Xiang stood at the bottom of the steps, waiting for Li Shanchang to come down, and saluted immediately.

Li Shanchang saw what Mao Xiang was holding at a glance, pointed to the fur skin outside curiously, and asked with a smile, "Commander Mao, what kind of good thing is this?"

Mao Xiang didn't want to show Li Shanchang at all.

As the eyes and ears of the emperor.

He knew what happened when Fang Xizhi went to Tuqiao Village.

I also know the exposition of King Yan.

Li Shanchang's student, that is, Hu Weiyong, the right minister of the dynasty, supported the rural village community. In Yan Wang's discussion, he is a person worthy of vigilance!

But Li Shanchang is in the limelight right now, and this man has great influence among the officials.

He dare not offend.

"This is the finished cloth woven by the women of Tuqiao Village through cooperation in weaving." Mao Xiang smiled and untied the fur wrapper, "The emperor has always been concerned about every move of Tuqiao Village..."

In the past year, Emperor Zhu paid attention to Tuqiao Village because of suspicion, and now he pays attention to Tuqiao Village because he wants Zhu Silang to share his worries. '

Li Shanchang murmured in his heart, looking at the snow-white cotton cloth, he moved closer, holding the cloth for a closer look.

After a while, he raised his head and asked in surprise, "Is this really the cloth woven by the women of Tuqiao Village?"

It's not that he doesn't understand people in power.

Before following Emperor Zhu to conquer the world, he was also a poor scholar who was not rich.

Most of the time, they wear homemade cloth spun by village women.

He is very clear about the quality of homemade cloth.

The finished homemade cloth woven has uneven thickness and many thread ends...

In short, neither the appearance nor the quality is good.

"The quality of this piece of cloth is almost as good as the middle-grade cotton cloth in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."

The servants in his mansion make clothes, and they purchase medium-grade cotton cloth from Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

This is the case every year.

Although he does not wear this kind of cloth, the clothes made of it.

But it's clear.

"Sure, this is the cloth spun by the women of Tuqiao Village, isn't it confusing?"

Mao Xiang smiled and said, "Mr. Han, there is absolutely no confusion. This is the finished cloth spun by the women of Tuqiao Village."

"Moreover, the price is 200% cheaper than the same grade of cloth in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. For such a piece of cloth, Jiangsu and Zhejiang goods sell for 140 yuan, while Tuqiao Village only sells it for about [-] yuan."

"What about the profit? How much profit does Tuqiao Village have?" Li Shanchang asked eagerly.

' That certainly can't tell you. '

Mao Xiang slandered, but with a smile on his face, he shook his head, "We haven't found out the profits of Tuqiao Village yet."

The disappointment flashed away, and then, Li Shanchang smiled and said: "Commander Mao, hurry up and see Your Majesty."

"Han Gong, take your leave."

Watching Mao Xiang enter the imperial study, Li Shanchang murmured: "Now, the emperor desperately wants Zhu Silang to help him relieve his worries. It's time to pay attention to this person."

After speaking, Li Shanchang went straight to Hu Weiyong's official room.

……

Royal study.

Ma Xiuying is also there.

Together with Zhu Yuanzhang, he carefully looked at the snow-white cotton cloth placed on the imperial case.

Zhu Yuanzhang tugged at a corner of the fabric, and asked in surprise, "Is this really made by peasant women in Tuqiao Village? How did they improve the quality? How much do they sell for this kind of fabric? What is the profit?"

"Your Majesty, Zhu Silang gathers those who are good at spinning and specializes in spinning..."

……

"According to some unofficial historical records, the craftsmen of the Qin State made weapons like this. To make a thing, it is divided into several steps, and each person is only responsible for one step..." Zhu Yuanzhang commented.

The fourth son of a bastard must have read about this from some wild history.

In the palace, a large number of books that have not been officially recognized or recognized by famous scholars have been collected.

For example, some small people, books written by literate craftsmen.

It has been verified by the textile industry of Tuqiao Village.

Now it seems that this matter should be true.

In this way, can the craftsmen and supervisors of the imperial court try it on a small scale?
……

While Zhu Yuanzhang was pondering, Mao Xiang continued to report, "The cloth in Tuqiao Village is 140% cheaper than the cloth in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and you can buy one for [-] yuan. According to the news sent back by Jinyiwei in Tuqiao Village, their profit per cloth is . About forty percent..."

"What!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked up in surprise, "Selling it so cheap, there is still [-]% profit? Isn't their competitiveness great?"

The same goes for Ma Xiuying.

Mao Xiang nodded, "According to the information collected by Chen, Tuqiao Village has decided to plant ten acres of cotton on the village's sloping and dry land this year."

This is because King Yan was worried that the scale would be too large, and the court would be jealous.

Of course, he selectively helped conceal these contents.

Zhu Yuanzhang got up and paced back and forth, muttering softly: "Not long ago, their grain was sold at a price that was [-]% higher than that of the autumn harvest in previous years. Now the cloth is so cheap and the profit is so big."

As he spoke, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Do you know how much money they can get?"

Mao Xiang knew all of this clearly, and hurriedly replied, "Zhu Silang has already discussed a specific dividend plan with the villagers. This time, all the money will be distributed as dividends."

"Zhu Silang's family will not participate in the dividends this time. Each family can get one tael or five silver."

hiss!
Before Mao Xiang's voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang's gasped voice sounded.

Then, he started pacing again, "Ordinary farmers, the weather is good all year round, and they save food and money. It's great to save a tael of silver. They haven't really started the construction of rural villages. They just hoard food and sell fifty horses. Bu, can you share so much money?"

"Does the fourth child go to the sky now and the heifer is swollen?"

"It seems that we really should find a chance and go see it."
