Chapter 109 Zhu Yuanzhang Wants the Formula!
The engagement matter has finally come to an end.

In Li Xiao's heart, it was as if a stone had fallen to the ground. It was okay to do it, and he had all the face.

The matter between himself and Ningyun is already a matter of iron and steel!
During this period of time, Li Xiao handed over all the mistakes in the saltworks to his old father-in-law, and after handing in the recipe together, he was happy and at ease.

I get tired of being with Zhu Ningyun all day long.

Appreciate the flowers and the moon, compose poems and make pairs, so happy!

But Zhu Di got the salt mountain, and quickly organized people to expand the size of the salt mountain. Snowflakes and white salt really fell like snowflakes and were produced.

After Beiping opened China and France, businessmen transporting grain from all over the country came to Beiping in an endless stream.

There is no other reason, it is because of this snowflake white salt.

The quality of this statement is excellent, the price can be sold, and the profit is amazing!
Pull it back and sell it to wealthy businessmen, not to mention the high price, and the supply is in short supply.

For a while, Snowflake White Salt became a hot item in the Jiangnan generation, and its price was skyrocketing.

Jiangnan is a land of wealth and prosperity, where wealthy businessmen gather and comparisons are common.

Now that this kind of salt is produced, if anyone can't eat it, it can't be on the table. The grade is too low, and a catty of salt can be sold at an exaggerated price of 20 taels of silver.

As a result, more and more businessmen saw the benefits, and more and more grains were shipped to Peiping.

It completely exceeded Zhu Di's budget, and immediately ordered the temporary establishment of multiple granaries before storing the incoming grain.

The entire granary in Beiping is about to explode! !
Such movements naturally reached the ears of the then crown prince Zhu Biao.

Seeing that the whole country's grain is being transported to Beiping, the tail is too big to drop, so it is impossible to continue like this.

If this continues, I am afraid that the salt tax will not be collected in the coming year.

Fortunately, most of the good salt in Peiping was sold to wealthy businessmen, and had nothing to do with the common people.

But we can't just let this develop. If all the food is transported to Beiping, then other places need to use Kaizhong to raise food. I'm afraid they won't be able to raise even a single grain of rice.

After discussing with Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stopped Beiping's self-opening policy.

Ying Tianfu.

Palace, Hall of Mental Cultivation.

In the grand hall, there was an old man in casual clothes holding a book, teaching a young man with questions and answers.

The old man's name is Zhu Yuanzhang, and he is the current emperor!
The Hongwu Emperor who started with a bowl and won the country.

Time is a ruthless pig-killing knife. Even a generation of heroes like Zhu Yuanzhang should end in his later years.

At this time, his aged face was covered with wrinkles and his hair was graying.

After the death of Empress Ma in the 15th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang's head turned white overnight, and he killed many people in a violent temper.

The old brothers from back then are hardly around now.

As people get older, they gradually begin to let go and feel sentimental about the past.

After that, Zhu Yuanzhang handed over almost all the affairs to Zhu Biao, the next generation heir of Ming Dynasty who he carefully cultivated.

And he is also happy to be leisurely, playing with birds and teaching his grandson in this Hall of Mental Cultivation all day long.

The boy he is currently teaching is named Zhu Yunwen, the eldest son of Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao had two concubines, Chang Yuchun's eldest daughter Chang and Lu Ben's daughter Lu Ben who participated in politics in the Yuan Dynasty.

The Chang family died while giving birth to Zhu Yunxi, and Zhu Biao helped Zhu Yunwen's mother, the Lu family, to be upright, and made her the princess concubine, and the Lu family became the master of the East Palace.

As a result, Zhu Yunwen became a descendant.

In the tenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Biao began to help Zhu Yuanzhang manage the government, which won Zhu Yuanzhang's satisfaction.

Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a farmer, and he has a kind of old farmer's thinking. He has the deepest affection for his first son Zhu Biao, which is unparalleled.

Old Zhu issued an edict and said: If something happens to me outside, the prince will supervise the country.

And Zhu Biao did not disappoint Zhu Yuanzhang.

Outside, he manages the government affairs tightly and orderly, the prince is friendly and kind, and has nothing to say in all aspects.

Even though all the civil and military officials of the imperial court are princelings, Zhu Yuanzhang has no defense at all about this and trusts him very much.

Inside, the brothers are respectful, and all the younger brothers obey Zhu Biao and listen to Zhu Biao's words.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very proud of having cultivated such a son.

He is very confident in his ability to train the successors of the empire.

For the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang plans to help Biaoer continue to cultivate a next generation Mingjun in his later years.

In front of Zhu Yuanzhang is Zhu Yunqi.

At this time, Zhu Yunwen recited an article to Zhu Yuanzhang respectfully.

After Zhu Yuanzhang listened, he smiled and nodded: "Yun Wen, this book is good to read, but you should not just read it blindly, you must use it in practice, and it is impossible to blindly follow the book and be flexible. Learn more from your father."

Zhu Yuanzhang was born in the grassroots, loved reading, and knew the importance of reading. During the rebellion, Liu Bowen was his professional lecturer, and he often listened to books in his spare time.

"Grandfather, grandson knows that he must work hard." Zhu Yunwen was indeed very flattering, and he said according to what Zhu Yuanzhang liked to hear, "Grandson must learn more from father."

At this time, as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang moved, Zhu Yunqi knew that he was going to tickle, so he hurriedly brought Yu Ruyi to scratch Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Grandfather, I'm coming."

"Hmm. A little left, a little left. Next."

Zhu Yuanzhang enjoyed it very much and let Zhu Yunqi tickle him.

But the itching became more and more itchy, scratching this side, the other side started to itch again.

Once he got the right position, Zhu Yuanzhang would feel refreshed for a while.

But immediately, the other place will be extremely itchy again.

After scratching for a long time, Zhu Yunwen's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he didn't dare to say that he was tired.

At this time, Zhu Biao came to see him and walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"The child has seen the father."

Zhu Biao cupped his hands, but his complexion didn't look very good. It was obvious that he had worked too much and was exhausted.

"Biao'er, you're here."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyelids and said, "Has it stopped at Peking?"

"Cough cough."

Zhu Biao coughed twice, then cupped his hands and said: "Go back to Father, the fourth brother's military ration gap has been made up, and the boy has ordered him to stop driving."

"that's OK."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Yesterday, we tasted the snowflake white salt. This salt is good. It doesn't taste bitter at all. I heard that it was made by Zhu Di's new son-in-law. What is it called? "

Zhu Biao reminded: "Li Xiao."

"Ah yes, Li Xiao."

Zhu Yuanzhang has a bad memory when he is old.

He obviously read it on the memorial not long ago, but he forgot it in a blink of an eye.

He straightened his body, signaled Zhu Yunxuan not to scratch, then looked at Zhu Biao and said: "Our fourth son, but he has found a good son-in-law, and he has such abilities."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed his hands and said with a smile: "Biaoer, you must have asked the fourth child about this, right? How is it? Have you handed in the salt making law?"

Hearing this, Zhu Biao had a bitter face and said, "Father, last time you neglected the fourth child for so long, how dare the child speak up."

Zhu Yuanzhang straightened his face and blew his beard and said: "What's the point of not talking about it? This is a great thing for the benefit of Ming Dynasty! If the people in the world can eat such good salt, everyone will praise our Ming Dynasty. Such white salt , so the price is set on the ground, and the rich can eat it, but the common people can't afford it. How can those rich businessmen enjoy it exclusively?"

ps: I recommend two new books by friends of excellent authors:

[-]. Longevity starts from the dog officer (Longevity style, the plot is smooth and beautiful, and the writing is sophisticated.)
