Daming: At the beginning, recognize Zhu Yuanzhang as grandfather!

Chapter 21

"Ah--"

Seeing Huang Xiongying and Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhou Ji's gloomy face finally smiled: "Boy, I thought you ran away, but you have the guts to come back!"

"My son has always convinced people with virtue, I give you two choices!"

"Either give us the recipes for making salt and wine, and we can let the past go, or let us beat you and this old man and throw them into the Qinhuai River to feed the fish!"

Zhou Ji was severely whipped by Zhu Yuanzhang just yesterday.

The wound on the head is still not healed.

But at this time, Zhou Ji's nostrils were turned upside down.

Very arrogant.

"court death!"

The two brothers Guo Zhen and Guo Xuan let out a low growl and stood in front of Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji was not angry, and said with a smile: "Why, do you want to beat me again? Hmph! This time, I am not afraid of you!"

With that said, Zhou Ji looked at Huang Xiongying:
"Brother Ying, how are you thinking?"

Last time he suffered a loss, but this time Zhou Ji put in a lot of effort. He brought over twenty burly men, and he was determined to win the formula in Huang Xiongying's hands.

The recipes for making salt and wine are priceless.

If he got it, it would definitely be a bountiful source of wealth, and Zhou Ji's status would also rise with the tide.

Among the descendants of these founding heroes, Zhou Ji's status can be said to be quite low, which made him unconvinced all the time. If he can succeed this time, Zhou Ji will be able to completely turn around and become famous.

No one can look down on him anymore, no one dares to point fingers at him anymore!

So Zhou Ji, regardless of the injury on his head, hurried to Huang's mansion with his troops early in the morning to block Huang Xiongying.

"Zhou Ji, Jiang Xiahou's son, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang motioned for the Guo brothers to step back, and looked at Zhou Ji indifferently: "Did you bully our grandson like this before?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ji spread his hands and said with a smile:
"Old man, don't get me wrong, I am not bullying you, I am helping you, you see, your eldest grandson is a military member and can't do business, it's useless holding a treasure in your hand, but it's different in our hands, We can achieve great things, and we will never treat you two badly!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhou Ji, with murderous intent in his calm eyes: "What if our eldest grandson doesn't give it?"

"Ah--"

The corner of Zhou Ji's mouth twitched: "Old man, don't be ashamed, remember what we said last time? If you annoy us, if you don't peel your skin, our surname will not be Zhou!"

As he said that, Zhou Ji's face became ferocious, showing a fierce look.

"good very good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, sighed lightly, and said, "Zhou Dexing gave birth to a good son!"

"Hey, pretend to be a ghost!"

Zhou Ji didn't know why, but the old man in front of him made his heart palpitate inexplicably, and immediately shouted: "Come on, tie up this crazy old man and this brat!"

Twenty strong men immediately surrounded Zhu Yuanzhang and Huang Xiongying.

"Bold!"

The Guo brothers let out an angry roar, and immediately drew back their stances to protect Zhu Yuanzhang and Huang Xiongying, while Jin Yiwei, who was hiding in the dark, was only waiting for the old man's order.

All of a sudden, swords were on the verge of breaking out, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

"What? What?"

Unexpectedly, at this time, an impatient voice sounded.

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, only to see Huang Xiongying who had not spoken the whole time stood up, walked to the middle of the two teams, and said to the Guo brothers calmly:
"Guo Zhen and Guo Xuan, right? This is your fault."

The Guo brothers were taken aback when they heard the words, and only heard Huang Xiongying say: "Even if it is a dog, you can't just beat it, let alone the son of Jiang Xiahou!"

"you……"

Zhou Ji, who just wanted to praise Huang Xiongying for his understanding, suddenly froze.

Huang Xiongying interrupted directly: "Mr. Zhou, you are really too."

"The injury hasn't healed yet, and you want to come here for a fight?!"

"Oh——" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed when he heard the words. The reason why he had the patience to talk to such little people as Zhou Ji was to see how his eldest grandson dealt with this matter.

If he wasn't there, his eldest grandson would be at an absolute disadvantage.

"Good boy, in the face of a strong enemy, stay calm in the face of danger, take it easy, follow us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was happy in his heart, and quietly became a melon-eating audience.

On the other side, Zhou Ji's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot, and he snorted heavily: "Huang Xiongying, we won't talk to you, I will give you another chance, either hand over the formula or hand over this crazy old man!" !"

Huang Xiongying chuckled lightly and said, "It's all right, you choose."

"Ok?"

Zhou Ji was stunned. He thought that he needed to use both soft and hard tactics, and he was even ready to do it. Even if you were the toughest, if he fell into Zhou Ji's hands, he would naturally have a way to make you speak.

Unexpectedly, Huang Xiongying answered so simply.

"Are you...willing to sell us the formula?"

Zhou Ji looked suspicious.

Huang Xiongying nodded and said with a smile: "Sell it as soon as you sell it, who asked Mr. Zhou to take care of me like this?"

When Zhou Ji heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he exchanged a glance with the steward behind him, and then he showed a spring-like smile:

"Brother Ying, wouldn't it be nice to be like this a long time ago, kindness makes money, I don't care about the old man beating me, hehe..."

Unexpectedly, at this time, a majestic voice sounded:

"No! We don't agree!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know when he had become sullen.

He thought that his eldest grandson would have a way to deal with this bastard, but he didn't expect that he would admit it.

This caused a burst of disappointment in his heart, and at the same time murderous aura rose up.

"Ah--"

Zhou Ji chuckled lightly: "Old man, if it wasn't for Brother Ying's sake, I would have skinned you and thrown you into the river to feed the fish today!"

Zhu Yuanzhang completely ignored Zhou Ji, pulled Huang Xiongying to his side, and asked in a low voice:
"Brat, are you really going to sell the recipe to this dog?"

Huang Xiongying nodded: "Then how about waiting for this dog to throw you into the river to feed the fish?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Yes.

When he had no power or power, he was bullied by these dogs, couldn't he just knock out his teeth and swallow it?

I still remember that time, when he was still Zhu Chongba, who was about the same age as Huang Xiongying, he watched his relatives die one by one, but he was powerless.

The greatest pain in the world is nothing more than this!

And when he was begging, he traveled across the city and across the village, begging from house to house, and every time he knocked on a door, it was a test for him, because what he faced was often just blank stares, cynicism, and for Zhu Chongba, knocking Opening that door may mean insult, but not knocking on that door will starve to death.

Now his grandson is facing the same problem as he was then.

That is the dignity of life or the pressure of survival, which is more important?

He could understand Huang Xiongying at this time too well.

So his heart ached even more. He didn't want his children and grandchildren to suffer the pain he had suffered.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Huang Xiongying, and said: "Xiongying, you have worked so hard to research those things, how can you make this dog cheap, don't worry, we will help you deal with it."

Huang Xiongying smiled and said: "Old man, do you remember that I said that I want that dog to return ten times what it took away from me!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly showed a puzzled expression.

He has always had bright eyes, but now he realizes that he can't see through his great grandson...
