Chapter 171: The Fool in Lao Zhu's Eyes

An old villain, plus four little villains, put together to formulate a strategy, it must be bad out of the realm, bad out of the pattern, bad out of the style!

In the end, you don't feel bad......

"Your country is small, densely populated, and war-torn for a reason. But the defeated warriors of your country ravaged the southeast of the Ming Dynasty, committing many crimes, and they were also angry with people and gods! Fortunately, Your Majesty has been merciful and has come up with a set of strategies, it depends on whether you are willing or not. ”

Hosokawa Nakao hurriedly bent over ninety degrees and listened honestly.

"A good strategy is to make it acceptable to all parties...... First of all, the Ming Dynasty cannot sit idly by and watch its people be threatened, if it cannot solve the problem of the Japanese and crusade against your country, it is inevitable. Therefore, your country must immediately assist the Ming Dynasty and recruit the Japanese who are scattered on the sea, so that they can quickly accept Zhao'an. “

"Of course, in the case of your country, it is impossible to accommodate these people. My Ming Dynasty has a vast territory, and I can take out a piece of land in Liaodong and give them cultivation to survive, as long as I don't disturb the southeast, Daming is willing to pay some price...... If you don't have a widow, you can be given the same treasure money as a reward. ”

"For those Japanese coles, Daming also gave them a way to live, if they are still obsessed, my Daming sailor will attack at any time, and don't want to live when the time comes!"

……

Hosokawa Nakao listened carefully, and when Liu Chun finished speaking, he said one word from the bottom of his heart: "Hi! ”

God pity, he's definitely real this time!

Those overseas wandering samurai not only robbed the Ming Dynasty, but also had hatred and constant conflicts between them and the shogunate. The Muromachi shogunate, which had just unified the north and south, urgently needed to deal with these troublemakers.

The Ming Dynasty came out of the land, they helped Zhao'an, and even the Japanese had a place to settle down, is there a better solution?

"Thank you for your kindness, thank you, your lord!"

Hosokawa knelt down excitedly.

Liu Chun just said indifferently: "Noble envoy, you should know that this time it was Da Ming who made great sacrifices and concessions, what is the reason?" It is not easy to remember that you are not in the same stream as the previous dynasty, a small island country, and it is not easy to hang alone on the sea. You should know, how to repay Daming? ”

"Yes, yes! Mr. Xu told us that this time for the birthday ceremony, our country will go all out, and I also ask Lord Liu to say more good things for our country! ”

Hosokawa bowed down again, and when he stood up, Liu Chun had an extra gift slip in his hand!

Coming out of the pavilion, Liu Chun glanced at it, not to mention, there are a lot of good things, there are gold, silver and jewelry, as well as swords and folding fans, in short, they are all specialties of the Wa Kingdom.

Liu Chun just glanced at it, and asked his subordinates to send it to the Royal Bank, and after the auction, all the proceeds were sent to the internal treasury.

"Liu Chun, in fact, you don't have to be like this." Zhu Hu was very sympathetic: "You work so hard, you should take a little gift, although my father is iron-fisted to curb corruption, but this little thing you receive is nothing, really!" ”

Liu Chun suddenly said: "Your Highness, the minister is loyal to Your Majesty, loyal to the court, never greedy or possessive, even if it is a penny, it must be handed over to Your Majesty, this is the minister's duty!" ”

Zhu Hu looked Liu Chun up and down, as if he wanted to get to know him again!

"Why am I more of a bad person than you?"

Liu Chun spread his hands, "So- I don't mind if Your Highness learns from me!" ”

……

"Now that your younger brothers have entered Beijing, you have to keep an eye on them more, especially don't let them associate with that Liu Chun!" Zhu Yuanzhang faced his son Zhu Biao and admonished earnestly, "Don't talk about others, just say that your fifth brother, what an honest person, you actually told me that the Japanese people are cultivating in Liaodong, and they have to be taxed heavily, and they can't be cheapened." ”

Zhu Biao grinned and said: "The fifth brother must use money to print medical books, and he is also for the people." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, "You will say good things for them...... I asked him, you publish medical books to save people, but you can pay heavy taxes and exploit Japanese people, how should you calculate it? You, what do you say? ”

How did Zhu Biao know, when he was groaning, Zhu Yuanzhang snorted angrily: "He actually told me that Japanese people are also people?" ”

"Hahaha!"

Zhu Biao laughed loudly, he couldn't help it, "If the second brother and the fourth brother say it, some people will believe it, but if the fifth brother says this, it's really surprising!" ”

"It's a fright!" Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more angry, "Liu Chun, this kid is a bad blank, no matter how good a child is, if you follow him for a long time, you will become bad." Go back and tell Chi'er, don't always associate with Liu Chun......" Zhu Yuanzhang muttered a lot, all of which were Liu Chun's words.

Zhu Biao didn't bother to listen...... Dad, if you really hate Liu Chun, you would have cut that kid down a long time ago, why complain to me! So Daddy's words, just listen to it, what should we do, for example...... Pre-shot!

"Father, Liu Chun plans to invite all foreign envoys and businessmen to participate in the banquet before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and auction some goods by the way...... Father, do you want to go and see it? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled angrily, "I have so many affairs, isn't it just to sell something?" It's also worth seeing! What could be so strange! Don't go! ”

In the evening, the troika appeared at the back door of the auction hall, and Lao Zhu jumped down from the middle carriage and looked inside...... I saw the brilliant lights, the figures shuttling, talking, playing and singing...... "This, this is the Qinglou, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately annoyed, "What does that stinky boy think?" What kind of business can I do here? ”

Without waiting for Zhu Biao to answer, at this time, Xu Zengshou and Xu Miaojin had already come over, and Xu Miaojin smiled and grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang's arm.

Xu Zengshou also bowed down and said: "This is specially arranged by Liu Chun, he said that people need clothes, and Buddha needs gold." This is done in order to enhance taste, give cultural meaning, and tap potential value......"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand again and again.

"I'm too lazy to listen, that kid is talking nonsense except nonsense. I ask you, what are you selling now? ”

Xu Zengshou hurriedly said: "There are a lot of things to sell, but Your Majesty may like this ...... the most" Xu Zengshou took out a small wooden box from his sleeve and handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"W-what the hell is this?"

Xu Zengshou said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't underestimate this thing, one or two silver!" ”

"One or two?" Lao Zhu's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.

Xu Miaojin next to him added, which made Lao Zhu feel even more incredible.

"Starting price!"

Awesome, isn't it?

Lao Zhu was eager to see the clues, and several of them were dressed in civilian clothes and quickly arrived at the VIP room in the tea exhibition area, where someone was already holding a small wooden box and explaining.

“…… Tea is unique to God and given by God...... Pu'er tea is the best in tea, the Pu'er tea in my hand is made of ancient tree spring tea, what is considered an ancient tree? Seven hundred years! More than 700 years! The tea tree has absorbed the aura of heaven and earth for seven hundred years, and every leaf that grows out has an incredible effect...... We choose the spring tea millitip fermentation made, with the two Song Dynasty court tribute tea technology, every roasted tea master, have more than 50 years of rich experience, it is no exaggeration to say, every tea, not tea, but handicrafts ......"

The people on the stage kept talking, Zhu Yuanzhang listened silently, His Majesty the Emperor has never seen such a braggadocio! Yishang is not stupid, can they be fooled?

!

Lao Zhu casually picked up the sample on the table, and suddenly found a booklet underneath.

He reached out again and picked it up and unfolded it to watch, which recorded the whole process of tea production in detail......

"On the third day of the first month of March, just after the spring rain, within two hours, such as picking tea in the mountains, you can get a pound and two taels of spring tea."

"Seventy-two-year-old tea master Zhou Ming, hands-on, after 73 days, more than 100 processes, fermentation."

"After the tea is made, it is accepted by the Chamber of Commerce, approved by the government, certified by the palace, and finally sent to the market."

"Ensure that every box of tea is a rare boutique in the world, and the Ming royal level is enjoyed!"

……

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, and he looked carefully, this thin booklet had dozens of bright red seals on it, from the private seal of the tea master, to the seal of the local chamber of commerce, and even the seal of the palace...... It's really sincere, more elaborate than the royal tea, of course, the premise is true!

"I've vouched for this, too? How come I don't know? Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened and said angrily.

Zhu Biao was very embarrassed and said: "Father, the son feels that the father is too hard, so let the son do these small things." Father's situation, this is the seal purchased in the palace, not the jade seal! And Erchen just gave Liu Chun a sample, no matter the length and width, it is different from the real seal. ”

"That's a lie!" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that his face turned blue, "You ask those barbarians, can they tell if this seal is real or fake?" ”

"I can't tell the difference!"

Xu Miaojin said honestly: "It is precisely because I can't tell the difference that I can sell at a high price!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, "High price? How tall could it be? No matter how tall I am, I will cure Liu Chun for the crime of despising the monarch's father in a while! I'm going to have to cut his head off! ”

Old Zhu snorted and said.

At this moment, the person in charge of the auction said loudly: "The first batch, three hundred and sixty boxes of the best Pu'er tea, start bidding now, the starting price: four hundred taels!" ”

"What?"

Lao Zhu is stupid, he just saw it, it's just a rotten street thing, one or two boxes are already sky-high, how dare you ask for more?

Just when Lao Zhu was surprised, in the middle of the lobby, there was a bearded businessman, standing up, shaking his big hand like a fan, and yelled excitedly: "Five hundred taels!" I'll give five hundred taels! ”

Well, the first fool was born!

Without waiting a second, the second person stood up, "Six hundred!" ”

"Six hundred and five!"

"Seven hundred!"

……

"Nine hundred and five!"

"One thousand and fifty!"

……

The sound of bidding outside is very loud, Zhu Yuanzhang's whole person is not good, he really can't understand, how can people outside be so fanatical, did they take the wrong medicine? When the price was locked at 3,800 taels, Lao Zhu could only say meaningfully: "I discovered for the first time that there are so many fools in the world!" ”
