Gou in Daming, I was overheard by Zhu Yuanzhang

In a restaurant on the Qinhuai River in Yingtian, Bai Qixiu and Wang Qingxuan, a doctor of the Ministry of Rites, exchanged cups and drank happily.

"Master Bai, I didn't expect that we would be out of the prison one day. Come, have a drink."

"Master Wang, you and I have been out of prison for more than two months, and we haven't been together. It's really a brother's lack of consideration."

"Master Wang, you've just been released from prison, so you'd better be careful."

"What Master Bai said is very true, so today, it's just you and me."

Bai Qixiu and Wang Qingxuan were directly thrown into Dianzhao Prison by Zhu Yuanzhang because they impeached Wu Wang Zhu Yunxie and blew up the statue of the Master.

After Zhu Yuanzhang set off from Yingtian, Bai Qixiu and Wang Qingxuan were kept in Jinyiwei's Dianzhao Prison without trial.

Because Zhu Yunwen supervised the country, Bai Qixiu and Wang Qingxuan did not suffer in prison.

Soon after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, he released Bai Qixiu and Wang Qingxuan and restored them to their original posts.

Bai Qixiu is the fourth rank, and Wang Qingxuan is the fifth rank.

Bai Qixiu invited Wang Qingxuan to dinner, the most important thing was that he liked Wang Qingxuan's wealth.

Wang Qingxuan comes from a large family in eastern Zhejiang, and the family has strong financial resources.

The main reason why Bai Qixiu invited Wang Qingxuan to dinner was to borrow money.

He saw an opportunity to make a fortune, which was provided by Sun Zhonglian's gambling house.

Bai Qixiu explained the purpose of his visit, and Wang Qingxuan was immediately interested.

Although Wang Qingxuan is very rich, no one thinks money is in his hands.

Sun Zhonglian's gambling shop is obviously throwing money, and it's still spending money in a targeted manner, so don't want it for nothing.

"Master Bai, I think this matter needs to be implemented. For example, does the imperial court really plan to reform the imperial examination?"

Wang Qingxuan's reminder made Bai Qixiu more than half sober.

Yes, the reform of the imperial examination system and the content of the imperial examination are all decided by Zhu Yunqi.

"Master Wang, is it possible that the Daming Academy of Science and Technology is going to propose to His Majesty a proposal to reform the imperial examination? Even, the Daming Academy of Science and Technology has already proposed it, and His Majesty has initially agreed to it?"

Bai Qixiu's reminder stunned Wang Qingxuan for a moment.

Yes, it is very possible.

Now Zhu Yunqi has something to ask from Daming Academy of Science and Technology!
In particular, Zhu Yunqi took a fancy to the firecrackers, grenades and other weapons of the Daming Institute of Science and Technology.

"Yes, Lord Bai, why do I think this is a trap? Is this a trap created by His Majesty and the Daming Academy of Science and Technology?"

"That's right, Mr. Wang's words awakened the dreamer! The Daming Institute of Science and Technology earns money from civil servants to make more firearms!"

"Just wait until the Yan army goes directly to Yingtian, and use these firearms to destroy the Yan army in one fell swoop!"

Wang Qingxuan and Bai Qixiu, you and I, complement each other and perfect each other, and they discovered a huge conspiracy!

At this time, the waiter who served the food in the restaurant laughed: "The two adults have been deliberating, what's the use? Ask the emperor directly, and you will understand everything."

Wang Qingxuan and Bai Qixiu looked at each other and laughed, yes, just ask the emperor directly!

It was still too complicated to think about the problem, but was awakened by a buddy instead.

Tomorrow, I will go to court and join other officials to ask.

That night, the civil servants were all restless like ants on a hot pot.

Some are worried about whether this policy is true, and some are flustered because they cannot raise more money.

The next day when he went to court, Zhou Jishi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood up first and said, "Your Majesty, there is a gambling house in the capital, which is opened for the Daming Academy of Science and Technology. They say that the imperial court wants to reform the imperial examination system. Is there such a thing?"

Zhu Yunwen said: "Oh, there is such a thing? The imperial examination system has always been good, why should it be changed?"

"It's just grandstanding for the gambling house to say so. Don't pay attention to it."

The civil servants were immediately relieved. It seems that His Majesty has no plans to reform the imperial examination system at all!
It seems that Daming Institute of Science and Technology is really going to throw money at the civil servants!
Qi Tai was not sure whether he should bet or not yesterday, but now he heard Zhu Yunqi's words, and he was very determined.

Many civil servants are starting to worry, can it be over soon?
Come to an end soon, hurry home to get the gold, let people hurry to the casino to place bets!

It is entirely conceivable that the civil servants must have collected all their savings over the years and invested them all.

There is always a limit to how the Daming Institute of Science and Technology can spend money.

When it reaches a certain limit, other people's casinos will close at any time and will not accept any bets.

It depends on who is faster and who strikes early!
I went early to eat meat, and late to drink soup, but in the end I had nothing.

Standing in front of the dragon chair, Zhu Yunqi felt very strange that the ministers had nothing else to say?

Since you didn't say it, it's just right.

Zhu Yunqi was really afraid that the ministers would bring up the matter of fighting the Yan army.

Because he proposed a policy of no resistance along the way, it caused a sensation in the capital.

The ministers' dissatisfaction with the "non-resistance" policy can be imagined by Zhu Yunqi.

What Zhu Yunwen was most afraid of was that those young and violent censors, once they joined hands to criticize the non-resistance policy and had to ask for an explanation, it would be really difficult to handle.

Today, the ministers have nothing to play!
Just what I want!

Sanchao!

Zhu Yunwen left after announcing.

As soon as Zhu Yunxuan left, all the civil servants in Fengtian Palace moved and ran out of the palace in a hurry.

The lower-level officials standing in the back row finally took advantage of the favorable terrain, and walked out of the hall first, walking in small steps.

The civil servants in the back all abandoned their usual restraint, striding forward and rushing out.

It was the military officer who did not move.

The military officers didn't move, but they were pushed aside by the civil servants who wanted to go out.

The military officers all shook their heads, these civil servants are really, alas, gentle and disgraceful.

Usually there are five people and six people, and when they see that it is profitable, they all show their original shape!

The military officers felt that the bet made by the gambling house was unusual, because the gambling house belonged to the Daming Institute of Science and Technology.

Last time, King Wu Zhu Yunxi made a gamble, the military officers won a lot of money, and the civil servants lost so much that they even lost their underwear.

This time, the military officials were not allowed to participate in the gamble, but only civil servants were allowed to participate.

Some military officers felt that this time, the civil servants might lose even worse!
Because of this gamble, many people thought of Wu Wang Zhu Yunxie, and Qiu Zhanke who had gone crazy and was locked up.

Will this gamble produce more Qiu Zhanke?

The civil servants rushed out of the hall, passed through the palace wall, and scattered in all directions.

After a while, people of all colors quickly gathered towards the casino with their burdens on their backs.

After a while, the gambling house was surrounded by civil servants or their relatives and servants.

Because betting needs to go through relevant formalities and certificates, and the gambling house is small and has a small number of people, it is very slow to handle.

People who lined up refused to leave, so their families delivered meals.

For two days in a row, many small businesses and hawkers have come, especially the shops selling snacks elsewhere have sent people to sell to the crowd in line.

Many years later, many small businessmen still clearly remember this incident of queuing up to place bets.

No one thought that this incident would be a landmark event in the Daming stock market in the future.

No one expected that this place would become the birthplace of the Ming Dynasty's financial market.
