Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 172 - Chapter 170

in the evening.

Zhen Wu first took the book from Zhu Yuying from his fourth sister, flipped through it briefly, and found the letter hidden inside, Zhen Wu was a little delighted.

It's strange to say that he never thought that he is so rational and someone who has always been restrained in dealing with emotions, would be aroused by Zhu Yuying, a little girl.

There is even a sweet feeling of being in love.

Zhen Wu couldn't help sighing.

Sure enough, as long as he is a man, even if he can control him, he will be overwhelmed when he expresses his feelings to a beautiful and cute girl. If he is not broken through, it can only show that the girl is not beautiful enough.

Zhen Wugang was about to read the letter, but was interrupted again. He received a letter from Xu Miaoyun.

He put the two letters together.

What about that first?
The next moment, Zhen Wu slapped himself, what was going on, it was like a flop, and then he picked up Zhu Yuying's letter and read it.

After Zhen Wu read all the two letters, he felt a little upset. Zhen Wu was smart, and he could guess from the lines that Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun had agreed, but Zhu Yuying's marriage could not be done on his own.

At this moment, he knew that if there were no accidents, that lovely and submissive girl would be the one who would accompany him for the rest of his life.

With a smile on the corner of Zhen Wu's mouth, he picked up the pen and wrote down a line of large characters on the paper.

Feeling unacceptable, going deeper.

……

After Zhen Wu knew the reply from the Yan Palace, he calmed down a lot in the following days, and no longer took the initiative to do some inquiring actions. He just quietly waited for Zhu Di to calm down at home so that he could be released back to the barracks.

It's just that he is used to staying in the military camp, and when he is at home, he is a little itchy when he is idle.

So Zhen Wu began to take the initiative to find something to do.

First of all, I have studied for a few days, Daming's current brewing technology.

Now there is distillation technology, but the distillation technology is different from what he remembered. He called the craftsmen over, improved it according to his own ideas, and then asked the craftsmen to build the improved equipment.

The craftsmen are all in the army, and there is nothing to say about their craftsmanship.

On this day, Zhen Wu was thinking about whether to send someone to go to the mountain to pick some jujubes, when Old Wang and Shi Leng came over together.

Lao Wang is now the shopkeeper of Leng Nuan Pavilion. He used to be a carpenter. When Zhen Wu made the music box, he asked Lao Wang to help him carve it. Later, the music box became popular, and Zhen Wu played some tricks to bring Lao Wang to his house.

Old Wang is an old master, now over 40 years old, and his name is Wang Gui. This time he and Shi Leng came here to repay the bill.

In the past, when Zhen Wu was not at home, sometimes Er Xian listened to his account, and sometimes San Yong listened to his account.

But it happened that Zhen Wu was at home this month, and the two virtuous and three brave would naturally not take on this matter again. Speaking of which, Zhen Wu really didn't care much about this, but I heard from family members that the income of Leng Nuan Pavilion was very good. He took out a sum of money and asked Sanyong to buy some more fields.

Neither Wang Gui nor Shi Leng were outsiders, so Zhen Wu led them directly into his study.

Zhen Wu looked at Leng Nuan Pavilion's ledger and found that the business was doing really well. Zhen Wu asked a few simple questions, and Wang Gui answered them one by one with a smile.

The current Cold and Warm Pavilion is no longer what it used to be. It mainly focuses on children's toys. There are not only traditional toys such as Huarong Road and chain locks, but also many novelty toys. Many of the ideas are provided by Zhen Wu. Zhen Jin and Zhen Huo are said to be more Capable and flexible, he is also developing various new products, so every time a new product is launched, there will be a wave of buying.

Many merchants from other places also signed contracts with Lengnuange, and sold goods from Lengnuange to other places. Therefore, Zhen Jin and Zhenhuo have also been on business trips to other places, and they know more and more merchants, which can be regarded as a firm foothold in business.

After a brief understanding of Wang Gui's side, Zhen Wu turned his attention to Shi Leng.

After Shi Leng came back from Liaodong, Zhen Wu asked Shi Leng to open a Leng Nuan Ge branch with Shi Leng's advice, which mainly focuses on fur clothing, but the business has not improved much.

Therefore, Shi Leng was a little downcast at the moment.

"You don't have to do this. There are already many people doing fur business in Beiping, and most of the merchants are exclusive, so they haven't done it for the time being. I don't blame you, but your idea is right. Now ordinary people can't buy fur shops in Beiping City. From now on, let’s look for the lower skins to buy and keep the price down, there will definitely be some profit.”

Shi Leng said in shame: "But now it's about to enter the peak season, and it's still so bleak. I'm really ashamed of the uncle's care for us brothers and sisters all the time."

Zhen Wu waved his hand.

Take care of something, in fact, don't mention it.

Only those who have been in the quagmire will know how difficult it is for people in the quagmire after they climb to a high position, so when they can help, Zhen Wu will not be stingy.

At this moment, the voice of the third child cursing and swearing sounded outside the door, followed by Shi Nuan's words of dissuasion.

"San Yong, don't go to the uncle, my brother and I can do it, how can I have the nerve to see your brother after you do this, don't be angry, let's think of a way."

Shi Nuan of Cardamom Nianhua couldn't hold back the calf-like youngest at all.

"What can I do? I want my brother to give me a warrant. If I bring someone to smash up his shop, the bullies will bully us, and I will treat our family as easy to bully."

While talking, the third child has already opened the door of Zhen Wu's study.

The third child was stunned: "Brother Wang Shushi, are you there?"

Both Wang Gui and Shi Leng stood up and said, "Third Master."

The third child nodded, and then looked at Zhen Wu anxiously, but just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhen Wu say coldly: "Whose shop are you going to smash? Who gave you the guts to smash other people's business?" ?”

"But they're bullying too much, I hit him and..." The third child was stumped before he finished speaking, Shi Nuan hurriedly grabbed the third child behind him.

The third child turned around and met Shi Nuan's pleading eyes, and the third child finally choked back the rest of his words.

Zhen Wu looked at Shi Nuan.

Shi Nuan lowered his head and called out, "Master."

Zhen Wu nodded. Shi Nuan and Shi Leng are now living in the shop. She is a young girl, so it is impossible for her to live in his house without knowing why. But after these two years, the one who dared to stand at the door with a knife and fight verbally The girl of the group of women also knows the class level.

Facing Zhen Wu, his boss, he no longer acted like he used to.

Zhen Wu looked at Wang Gui and said, "Old Wang, you should go back first."

Lao Wang responded and retreated.

Afterwards, Zhen Wu looked at Shi Leng and asked, "What's going on?"

Shi Leng was even more ashamed, and said: "There is a fur shop that also makes fur, and deliberately opened another fur shop opposite our shop, so there were occasional customers in our house, but now all of them have been robbed, but speaking of it The quality of our leather is really not as good as it is, and it’s not my fault.”

Before Zhen Wu could speak, the third child couldn't bear it anymore.

"Brother, it's not that simple. People say that our shop can't last for two months, and there are often little ruffians making troubles these two days. Don't guess it must be that bastard who made the trouble. I'll go find him trouble Is there something wrong?"

Zhen Wu's eyes narrowed, and he asked Shi Leng, "Did anyone ask for trouble before?"

Shi Leng shook his head, "Only in the past two days."

Doing business these days is different from later generations. There are not so many people doing business now, so as long as it is a business, especially the fur business, there is some background behind it.

Zhen Wu didn't trust the other party, and instead of investigating who was behind Leng Nuan Ge's business, he rashly made enemies.

At this time, the third child shook off Shi Nuan's pulling arm, and shouted anxiously: "Brother, I know what you are thinking, you guessed right, this time it's not just about the shop, the other party also said, brother you Now that King Yan is displeased, it is difficult for me to protect myself, so I am not afraid of you."

The third child was puzzled, he didn't know if his eldest brother offended King Yan?A few days ago, my mother was just summoned by the princess. In the past two days, the fourth younger sister and fifth younger sister started to go to the palace to attend classes with the princess. Does this seem to be difficult for oneself?

Why did my eldest brother rest at home for two days, and someone came to ask for trouble.

The eldest brother can bear this matter, but the third brother can't bear it either.
