This is only one aspect!.In addition, many industries in Ganzhou Prefecture have begun to make money, which can also relieve Zhu Kai's urgent financial needs!

For example, the great theater opened by Zhu Lai has already gained a good reputation!

Originally, only Ganzhou Prefecture knew about it, but now almost everyone in the northwest region and surrounding areas has heard about it!

Even in some state capitals and in the fiefdoms of neighboring feudal lords, many theaters following the trend have appeared!

Can't prevent it, can't prevent it at all!

Because of the plays written by Zhu Mei, the status of opera singers in the northwest has improved a lot, and they have become popular among everyone!

Not only that, because Ganzhou canceled the curfew, many other places also saw business opportunities!

The main reason is that the other vassal kings also started to become jealous, and basically started to copy Ganzhou's model. They may not be able to come up with ideas, but they are good at copying homework!

Even if they are not as good as Ganzhou Prefecture, as long as the general direction is correct, they will be much better than before!

These benefits alone are enough to make these feudal kings rich!

This also shows the ability of Su Wang Zhu Mei to attract money!

"Today’s lunch will not be eaten at the palace. Let the chef in the military camp prepare it. I want to go there!"

Zhu Hui walked out of the study and gave instructions to Geng Qing who was guarding outside.

Once again riding on the wind-chasing horse, Zhu Hui took Geng Qing and several other guards directly to the military camp!

It is mainly used for the production of rubber. The rubber factory is right next to the military camp!

Otherwise, the rubber factory will be safer if the army is guarding it!

"

The main purpose of Zhu Hui's"September 13" is to go to the rubber factory to see how much natural rubber raw material inventory is currently there!

At present, all natural rubber is basically provided by the rubber grass shipped from the Western Regions. Businessmen, there must be some people guessing what these rubber grasses are used for! After all, the most important thing for businessmen is profit. Although they don't know what this thing does, they must know that it is a good thing!

It’s impossible to buy Zhu Xi in large quantities!

Some people even start to think that this grass can be used as medicine, but I don’t know what diseases it is used to treat.

So many people will naturally focus on this rubber grass! , letting the army guard it is naturally the safest!

Soon, Zhu Kai led Geng Qing and others to the warehouse where the rubber was stored!

"Your Highness, the current natural rubber raw materials can only barely supply the construction of slingshots and crossbows and the research and development of rubber tires!"

"If you want to manufacture rubber tires in large quantities, I'm afraid it's not enough!"

Geng Qing said with some helplessness after counting the amount of rubber currently available.

"There is really no other way, just select a batch of rubber trees from Yunnan and start cutting them first!"

"But you have to control the quantity, and cut 10% of it a year!"

Zhu Lai thought for a while and then directly ordered Geng Qing.

Although rubber grass can provide a lot of natural rubber, the demand for Zhu Lai is too great, and this thing still can't satisfy it!

Even though it took two years Cutting the rubber tree is a one-time transaction, and the tree will definitely die, but there is nothing we can do about it! Although

Zhu Kai is a little distressed, he can only select a batch for emergency use at most! After another three years of harvesting, the remaining rubber trees can basically start harvesting natural rubber normally!

Normally, rubber trees have to wait five or six years to begin harvesting rubber, but Zhu Xi can't wait that long anymore!

All the natural rubber in the warehouse is stored in waxed wooden barrels!

After being extracted, if it is exposed to the air for too long, it will solidify quickly, so it must be fully coated with wax. The wooden barrel must be sealed and stored!

And even if it is sealed, it must be used within a short time! But if it is stored for a year and a half, it will also be broken! There is no way, with the current storage level, it will be damaged.

This is the only thing we can do!

"Will the production of rubber tires be postponed?"

"Wait until the natural rubber from Yunnan arrives? Geng

Qing asked.

"No, just use part of these existing raw materials to produce rubber tires!"

When Zhu Kai heard this, he waved his hand directly!

For Zhu Kai, the rubber slingshot and crossbow has been made anyway, it's nothing more than the quantity!

And there is no war for the time being. When the natural rubber from Yunnan arrives, It’s okay to manufacture in large quantities!

On the contrary, rubber tires are more important. After all, we are still waiting for money to invest!

After all, rubber tires can play their greatest role on cement roads, and their use for transportation can greatly improve transportation efficiency!

Whether you are doing business or transporting cement and other materials needed for road construction, with rubber tires, you can get twice the result with half the effort!

For example, materials that originally required three horses can be hauled using a rubber-tired carriage and a cement road. , it can be pulled by a horse!

Zhu Kai has already designed the carriage specifically for use with rubber tires!

Hearing what Zhu Kai said, Geng Qing naturally had no objection and started to work directly. stand up!

"Your Highness, lunch is ready!"

At this moment, Geng Qing came over to report.

In the military camp, the food is relatively simple. After all, it cannot be compared with the big fish and meat in the palace!

Fortunately, Zhu Mei is not picky. In the military camp, It's enough to have enough food and enough nutrition!

In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed in the Imperial Study Room of Yingtian Mansion.

"The news sent back by Jinyiwei today said that the Fourteenth Old Man was in Xi'an Mansion……"

Zhu Yuanzhang held the secret document that Jiang Yu had just sent in his hand, and briefly explained Zhu Yuan's confiscation of homes and families in Xi'an.

When talking about this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have any expression on his face, and there was no joy or anger in his tone!

But even so, Zhu Biao was still shocked!

This old fourteen is really courageous!

Also found hidden armors from those three families?

What about bluffing?

"Dad, although Old Fourteen is a bit crazy, his starting point is also good. It is indeed time for those nobles and gentry in Xi'an Mansion to take a beating! Zhu

Biao hurriedly said

"snort! Is confiscating homes and exterminating clans considered a beating?"

"Is there such a beating?"

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Biao looking so nervous, but he snorted angrily.

He could tell that Zhu Biao was probably still grateful for the life-extending pill that the fourteenth man gave him!

This kind of thing They were so anxious that they started to excuse the fourteenth old man!

However, Zhu Biao's attitude made Zhu Yuanzhang relieved.

"This...Old Fourteen is indeed a bit excessive, but there is a reason for it!"

"You also know the situation in Xi'an Prefecture. If you can't cut off the chaos quickly, I'm afraid you won't be able to rectify the chaos in a short time! Zhu

Biao said with a wry smile.

"I won’t mention this matter for the time being. This boy, Lao Shi4, has done a lot of bad things, and this is not the least of them!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said

"Dad, aren't you angry?"

Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously.

If the Fourteenth had dared to do such a big thing without telling the court before, the old man would definitely be furious and a reprimand would be indispensable!

"This brat has done a lot of things to make us angry before!"

"We really get angry so easily, we have been pissed off by him a long time ago!"

"But we can’t let him do whatever he wants, we must go to the northwest as soon as possible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly, and then mentioned the idea of preparing for the Western Tour.

"But we are worried that someone will use this matter to impeach the Fourteenth!"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but frown.

Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude reassured Zhu Biao, but the emperor's favoritism for his son does not mean that the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty can pretend that they don't know anything!

The father and son can now be said to have unified their minds. Everyone has the idea of helping the Fourteenth to the throne directly, so the reputation of the Fourteenth and the prestige in the court must be established!

But because of this matter, those censors may seize the opportunity! , once again set off the impeachment of Su Wang Zhu Lai, which will definitely directly hit Su Wang Zhu Lai's prestige in the court!

"Huh, these bastards know how to keep an eye on Zhu Yuanzhang's son every day. Why don't they impeach the real corrupt officials?"

"We know what you are worried about, but it is not the turn of outsiders to dictate matters regarding our Lao Zhu family!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he snorted disapprovingly.......

Most of the civil servants in the court actually dislike King Su Zhu Mei. If they encounter the impeachment of King Su, they will basically follow suit and add insult to injury!

Of course, this is not just for King Su, but also for all the vassal kings, including Qin King Zhu Xi, Jin King Zhu Fan, Yan King Zhu Di, etc., they are basically the same!

The most criticized vassal kings have always been Su Wang Zhu Mei, Qin Wang Zhu Xi and Yan Wang Zhu Di!

Among them, the King of Qin Zhu Xi was really a bastard, and Zhu Yuanzhang could only be angry at him for not arguing. The officials wanted to impeach the King of Qin, and even if he wanted to help him, he couldn't help and had to scold him along with him!

But King Su Zhu Mei and King Yan Zhu Di were obviously targeted!

In other words, it is also because these two vassal kings are so powerful that they have become typical examples among many vassal kings. There is a sense that even if they are as good as Lin Feng, they will be destroyed!

However, Zhu Yuanzhang is definitely an arbitrary emperor. Even if the entire dynasty is opposed by civil and military officials, as long as he is determined to put Zhu Mei in power, no one can stop him!

Not to mention that Zhu Biao, the current crown prince, is standing with him on the same front. Zhu Yuanzhang is very confident about this!

If that doesn't work, then just kill everyone in the next few years. Anyone who dares to oppose the rise of the Fourteenth will be killed directly!

As long as a group of people are killed, who will dare to stand up and object?

Anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang's reputation is just like that, and he will definitely be called a tyrant by future generations, so it would be better to directly fulfill the needs of the Fourteenth Emperor!

During the period of training Zhu Biao, he had the same idea.

There is no need to doubt Zhu Yuanzhang’s courage!

Even after Zhu Biao's death, if you look at how Zhu Yuanzhang raised the butcher's knife against Lan Yu's gang of Huaixi nobles in order to put Zhu Yunwen in power, you will know how ruthless this leader was in killing people!

"So when are you going to go find Lao Si?"

"Otherwise, let's go and you stay in Yingtian!"

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly and shook his head. He also knew what kind of temper Zhu Yuanzhang was. In other words, it was useless for anyone to stop what the old man decided!

But Zhu Biao didn't want the old man to have to worry about his own affairs at his old age. Traveling long distances!

"No, we have to go to Ganzhou in person!"

"There are some things that only we can explain clearly to Old Fourteen!"

"What's more, we still have auspicious national luck, so you don't have to worry about our 4.8!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said without any doubt.

Between father and son, one is the emperor and the other is the prince who supervises the country. One of them must stay in Yingtian!

As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day. If he and Zhu Biao are not in Yingtian Mansion for a few days, maybe It's okay, but if it takes a long time, something might go wrong!

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang went to see Zhu Mei for a showdown, and Zhu Biao couldn't explain many things clearly!

In this regard, Zhu Yuanzhang must handle it himself.!

If Zhu Biao really wants to go, he won't stop him, but he will have to wait until he has a showdown with Lao Shi and then Lao Si agrees to let Zhu Biao go to Ganzhou and Lao Si! It is not impossible for the two brothers to meet up with each other and reminisce about old times! As for whether the officials in the court will use the matter of the Xi'an Mansion to impeach the old Fourteenth, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care. He is still worried about finding an excuse!

Going to Ganzhou, if these guys really impeached the Fourteenth, he might even propose the idea of going to Ganzhou! After working in the imperial study until noon, Zhu Biao went back to the East Palace.

I directly opened the future deduction system and took a look at the current sign-in days.

"It's enough to activate the simulator of the kid Darhan!"

There was a smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

He has been thinking about this child during this time. After all, it is difficult not to be curious about such an awesome grandson!

The prerequisite is that Darhan can recognize his ancestor and return to his clan. That’s it!.
