Gou in Daming, I was overheard by Zhu Yuanzhang

Liu Hong hurriedly followed Zhu Yuanzhang.

After sending Zhu Yuanzhang back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he came to look for the second emperor's grandson Zhu Yunqi.

Liu Hong reported in detail the conversation between His Majesty and Zhu Yunxie.

Liu Hong's description is vivid and vivid.

Zhu Yunqi seemed to see His Majesty's disappointment and Zhu Yunxi's frustration.

His Majesty said to Zhu Yunxi again, "Seek more blessings for yourself, and do it for yourself".

Zhu Yunxi is feeling uncomfortable now, unable to go up or down.

He said a lot of rhetoric about sharing worries for the country and solving problems for the court, and he couldn't get down from power.

It seems that Zhu Yunxi is really going to bite the bullet and get on with it.

Zhu Yunxue bit the bullet and went down, which obviously brought disaster to the Lan family and Chang family who fully supported him.

There are other families of generals, many of whom are on Zhu Yunxi's side.

They also agreed to attend tonight's party, and like Lan and Chang's family, they also bought shares.

Since they bought shares, they must believe that Daming Salt Industry can make a lot of money.

Naturally, these families of generals will definitely bet on Daming Salt Industry.

These families of military generals have received too many rewards because of their great achievements.

Now, it's their turn to spit some out.

At that time, these generals will definitely complain to Zhu Yunxi.

At that time, it will be really lively!

After His Majesty left, Yang Pu and Fang Xiaoru looked at Zhu Yunxi.

Zhu Yunxi had a look of worry and regret just now, but now he looks happy.

"By the way, Master Fang, Hongji, tonight, do you want to participate in the event together?"

Fang Xiaoru still doesn't know what's going on, and doesn't know what activities to participate in.

Yang Pu smiled and said, "Lord Fang, Wang Qingxuan, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, held a banquet in Jixian Building, one of which was betting."

"The bet is whether Daming Salt Industry can make a profit."

Fang Xiaoru thought of Qiu Zhanke's gambling game in Hangzhou.

At that time, Yan Wang Zhu Di, Li Jinglong and Qiu Zhanke all believed that they would win.

Who knew that these few lost all their money.

Now the doctor of the Ministry of Rites actually used the name of holding a banquet to engage in a gamble against King Wu.

Although he didn't understand how King Wu's Daming Salt Industry made a profit, Fang Xiaoru believed that the final winner must be King Wu.

Not for anything else, because King Wu's talents are astonishing.

He established Daming Salt Industry, he must have his own way to make money.

As far as the Daming Institute of Science and Technology is concerned, he was not in favor of it at the beginning.

Because the education he has received since he was a child is: everything is inferior, only reading is high.

Improving weapons and tools is only the work of craftsmen, the level is too low, and it is not worth mentioning compared with the great ambition of self-cultivation, family governance, and world peace.

But Wu Wang obviously has a great talent, but he doesn't show it at all.

Obviously, the king of Wu once angered the talented Xie Jin because Xie Jin looked down on the so-called "extraordinary skills and obscene ingenuity". "Skillful and obscene" is disrespectful to our ancestors.

After thinking about it carefully, Fang Xiaoru had to admit that what King Wu said was very reasonable.

It's just that the civil servants of the imperial court only read the books of sages and sages, and coupled with the low status of craftsmen, they looked down on them from the bottom of their hearts.

King Wu established the Daming Salt Industry, which is responsible for its own profits and losses. He said that he wanted to reduce prices and increase supply so that the common people could eat good salt.

This moved him very much.

Combined with the matter of helping Luo tenants in Songjiang Mansion, I feel that King Wu still has the feelings of family and country with compassion and compassion for the world.

I don't know how much better this is than those hypocrites in the court who keep talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality.

"Master Fang, Hong Ji, how about a gamble at night? A small gamble is fun, but a big one hurts the body." Zhu Yunxi chuckled and said, "Big bets hurt their bodies!"

"How about this, I will lend you the principal, 100 taels of gold, how about a gamble tonight?" Zhu Yunxi said: "You each use 100 taels of gold to force them to raise the bet!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't wait for the two to agree, and shouted: "Mei'er, Lan'er, go to my drawer and bring all the gold."

Immediately take out 200 taels of gold from the system space and put it in the drawer.

Meier and Laner brought the gold over.

"Take it. If you lose, you lose. If you win, just give me the principal." Zhu Yunxi stuffed 100 taels for each of them.

The two hesitated.

"Don't give it to my mother-in-law! There is an official ladder in the book, and there is no golden house in the book!"

"After becoming an official, you can't get rich. After getting rich, you can become an official."

"You are all old and young, and you all have to support your family. Tonight, accompany me to the Jixian Building to see and see."

Speaking of this level, both of them accepted it neatly.

Fang Xiaoru felt that Zhu Yunxi was indeed different from before going to Hangzhou.

The image of yes and no promises is almost non-existent.

Especially in promoting the construction of Daming Institute of Science and Technology, it is very high-profile.

In the past, Huang Zicheng once invited Zhu Yunxi to participate in the poetry meeting, but Zhu Yunxi did not go at all.

Tonight will be Zhu Yunxi's first time attending a party.

In the final analysis, Zhu Yunxi wanted to make a sum of money through gambling as the start-up capital of Daming Institute of Science and Technology.

Along the Qinhuai River, there is a cool breeze, which is very pleasant.

At this time, compared with the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was quite prosperous, as can be seen from the lively restaurants at night.

When the capital was established, the market was very depressed due to years of war.

Zhu Yuanzhang personally set out to restore the restaurant and encouraged the diversified operation of the restaurant.

In addition to many hotels in the west of the city, Zhu Yuanzhang built many restaurants outside the Jiangdong Gate and on both sides of the Qinhuai River.

Historical Records: In the 27th year of Hongwu, with the aim of peace in the sea, and thinking of having fun with the people, the Ministry of Industry was ordered to build ten restaurants outside the Jiangdong Gate, with names such as Heming, Zuixian, Acura, Drum Belly, Laibin, and Retranslation.

Even if the fifth floor is added, everything will be done.The imperial edict bestowed civil and military officials with banknotes, and ordered the banquet to be held in Zuixianlou.The fifth floor is dedicated to drinking and singing prostitutes, imitating the stories of the Song Dynasty, but there is no official brewery to collect questions.

Zhu Yuanzhang built a total of sixteen restaurants.

These restaurants in the early Ming Dynasty were built under the unified supervision of the government, but they were independently operated by the people, and even the first floor was crowded with several restaurant owners.

Each restaurant has its own wine and food, and it is listed to attract customers. The competition is fierce.

Some wine shops also have full-time wine singers to attract drinkers.

The government only collects taxes on the business of restaurants and does not interfere.

Zhu Yuanzhang also gave money to all the officials and asked them to have banquets in restaurants, with the purpose of stimulating the revitalization of the restaurant industry.

Along the Qinhuai River, the most lively place tonight is Jixian Tower.

The entire building was taken over by Wang Qingxuan, a doctor from the Ministry of Rites.

Those who came to the banquet today included civil servants and military officials, and they were all heavyweights.

What is even more striking is that Zhu Yunqi, the second emperor's grandson, and Zhu Yunxie, the third emperor's grandson, will also be present.

In addition to those in the imperial court, many wealthy households in Beijing and China also participated.

This is a gamble with a huge lineup and wide-ranging influence!

It is impossible for His Majesty, who has always been omniscient, not to know about this kind of gamble.

But His Majesty didn't have any attitude, let alone any action to stop it.

what does this mean?
Therefore, Juxian Building has attracted the attention of the entire capital.

The banquet hadn't even started yet, but there were already a lot of good people gathered around the Gathering Building.
