Great Emperor's Grandson of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 27 Assimilated European Descendants

"Potatoes and corn? Young Master actually knows about these things?"

Hearing this, Hu Shang suddenly looked surprised.

He actually doesn't know what corn is.

Because at this time, the Italian explorer Columbus was not born at all.

Since no one went on an ocean expedition, the Europeans naturally had a way to obtain corn seeds in the American continent.

But as a businessman, he didn't want to expose his shallowness.

So even if he didn't know what corn was, at this moment, he still pretended to understand it very well.

"I'm afraid I know more than that. Judging from your appearance, you should be from Europe, right? Can I ask how you came to Ming Dynasty? By boat or by land?"

Seeing the surprised look on the other person's face, Zhu Congxin also smiled softly.

He did not realize that he had made a common-sense mistake.

After confirming that it was indeed possible for the other party to obtain potatoes and corn, I couldn't help but inquire about the other party's business route.

However, seeing that he could see his origin at a glance and asked about his business path, the Hu merchant couldn't help but feel embarrassed: "Back to you, young master! My ancestors are indeed from the continent of Europa. "

"But when it comes to the younger generation, it has actually been a long time since we returned to our hometown."

"As for how the little ones came to the Ming Dynasty, to tell you the truth, the little ancestors were actually captured."

"That happened about 120 years ago. At that time, my young ancestor was considered a prominent figure in Europe. But then, Brother Meng came, bringing countless Mongolian cavalry, flattening our hometown and taking us as prisoners. Caught Dongtu”

"After that, we moved around several times and lived near Yingtian and became residents here. Over the years, we have been relying on the craftsmanship passed down from our ancestors."

Yes!

He is the descendant of a prisoner of war!

Although the appearance still retains many European characteristics, on the inside, he has actually been assimilated into an out-and-out Chinese.

And a Chinese who has lived in the East for many years naturally has no possibility of crossing the Eurasian continent.

"The ancestral craftsmanship? You mean the refining of these colored glazes? So you can't get me potatoes and corn?"

Zhu Congxin looked disappointed for a moment.

Feeling depressed, he even kicked the glass beads on the ground with a look of disdain.

But at this moment, the Hu merchant was obviously no longer in the mood to care about his products.

"You actually know how to make colored glaze?"

He asked with his mouth wide open and a look of shock on his face.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt a little regretful.

Because the moment he said these words, he was actually asking for it.

With similar expressions, there were also the servants beside Zhu Congxin, and Zhu Mei, who had just arrived from a short distance away.

"What colored glaze? What kind of refining of colored glaze? What on earth are you talking about? Could it be that these things are actually artificially refined? Are you kidding me?"

At this time, a cute-looking light yellow lizard appeared on Zhu Kai's hand.

It was something he bought from a pet dealer.

The price is not expensive, only one tael of silver.

It can be regarded as high quality and low price.

However, compared to the secret of glass refining, this kind of thing is obviously not on the table.

"This kind of thing has been around since the Western Zhou Dynasty! What's so strange about it?"

However, facing their exclamations, Zhu Congxin showed a lack of interest.

In fact, from the moment he saw Hu Shang, he had already thought about using Liuli to open another timeline.But unfortunately, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Because after verification through the search engine, he found that the refining of colored glaze had actually developed to an extremely perfect level in the Yuan Dynasty.

But just like the previous dynasties, these technologies are still only in the hands of some powerful families.

Therefore, even in the Ming Dynasty, colored glaze was still an extremely precious treasure to the ancients at that time.

Of course, this may also be because the technology at that time was relatively backward.

But no matter what, the idea of ​​creating a new timeline with it is definitely impossible to realize.

Even if a noble family intervenes, he may not be able to make too much money from it.

Just like Zheng He during the Chengzu period of the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, he went to the West three times and brought back many craftsmen who knew how to make colored glaze for Zhu Di.

However, just when Zhu Di was filled with joy and ready to make a fortune from this, aristocratic families from all over the world took the lead in releasing a large amount of colored glaze, directly turning this extremely precious object into a common daily necessities.

Otherwise, the strength of the Ming Dynasty back then would have probably been three points stronger.

But unfortunately, Zhu Kai and others must not be able to understand all this.

At this moment, they all felt that Zhu Congxin was showing off!
Especially Zhu Xi.

[That’s Liuli! 】

【A treasure rarer than pearls! 】

[What do you mean there is nothing surprising? 】

[What the hell are you talking about? 】

He couldn't even help but shout secretly.

However, in order not to expose his ignorance, he finally suppressed his desire to complain.

"If you don't think it's strange, just give me the solution! I'll give it to my father in a moment!"

He said unconvinced.

Originally, I just wanted to dismantle Zhu Congxin.

But the next moment, Zhu Congxin pointed directly at Hu Shang opposite: "I have no use for this person. If you want the formula, wouldn't it be over if someone brings him into the palace?"

"This is what his ancestors did. They have been doing it secretly for more than 100 years! He doesn't know how much furniture he has saved."

"But one thing I have to remind you! There are quite a few people who know how to refine this stuff now. If you want to steal food from their mouths, you may have to work harder."

"Don't let the stalls be spread out but you can't catch anything."

That Hu merchant was dumbfounded.

It was only at this moment that he finally realized that the two children in front of him were actually princes who ran away from the palace!
【It's over! 】

【It’s all over now! 】

[If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have come to answer the sky in the first place! 】

【it's good now!I didn’t make any money, but I even got myself involved! 】

While lamenting, he even had the urge to beat himself up.

But now it's obviously too late to regret it.

"Come here! Get this yellow-haired fanzi down for me!"

Hearing that this person was the key to refining colored glaze, Zhu Kai shouted arrogantly to the left and right.

The next moment, a group of secret guards swarmed in, frightening the surrounding pedestrians and frightening several police officers who were patrolling by themselves.
