Due to Nong Yesi's lack of cooperation, Chu Ze was not allowed to go back and write the memorial.

In the memorial, he carefully described the good varieties of cotton.

I have repeatedly stated that growing cotton is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

After writing it, he handed the memorial to the guards and asked them to send it to Yingtian as quickly as possible.

Zhu Ping sat aside and watched the whole process.

Holding tea in his hand, he crossed his legs like an uncle.

The guards left and Zhu Ping said: "Do you think our father will agree?"

"meeting."

Chu Ze didn’t even have to think about it.

Because in history, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who forcibly promoted cotton cultivation.

During the Song and Yuan dynasties, the promotion of cotton had no practical effect.

The status of cotton is only above that of weeds.

Not many people actually grow it.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang discovered this thing and ordered it to be planted forcibly.

Otherwise, the people of China would still have to wear cotton-padded clothes made of kapok for several years.

His crisp answer surprised Zhu Ping.

He looked at Chu Ze in surprise and said amusedly: "You quite believe in our father."

"At this point, we never doubt it."

Chu Ze walked to Zhu Xi and sat down next to him, stretching and speaking in a leisurely tone.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang is suspicious, he is also capable.

Otherwise, it will not lay the foundation of "no marriage, no indemnity, no cession of territory, and no tribute."

The reason why Ming had the confidence to say this was because he was strong enough.

Strong strength is inseparable from the wise decision-making of the monarch.

So he believed Zhu Yuanzhang would agree.

"So, you dare to build a navy in Quanzhou privately?" Zhu Xi looked at Chu Ze with a half-smile.

You look like a successful villain who finally caught your pigtails.

Chu Ze immediately retorted: "Don't talk nonsense, the emperor knows about our building a navy. Weren't you there at the time?"

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang had not yet responded to Tian.

He took some time to take a tour around Youquanzhou.

By the way, I mentioned the matter of the navy.

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed.

Otherwise, could Nong Yesi agree so readily?

Now without Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Nong Yesi would not do it.

This is a person who does not seek merit, but seeks no faults.

After being a prefect for so many years, it’s no wonder that he has no outstanding achievements.

Nong Yesi is afraid of trouble, but Chu Ze is not.

After he submitted the memorial, he plunged into the great business of growing cotton.

Although Fujian can grow cotton, someone needs to take the lead.

Let the people be willing to plant.

And plant in large quantities.

Chu Ze thought about it and planned to cooperate with local businessmen to purchase cotton.

After the people have planted the cotton, they can collect the cotton, process it into products, and sell it to all parts of the country.

As for the processing place, Chu Ze doesn't plan to care about it.

As long as they take the lead in this matter, the businessmen below can naturally handle it.

In the past few days, Chu Ze began to look for businessmen candidates again.

Finally, Chu Ze found Ding Yuquan, a well-known local wealthy and benevolent businessman.

Ding Yuquan is over fifty years old and has a son.

According to locals, Ding Yuquan earned his fortune from scratch.

Since then, he has been kind-hearted and kind-hearted.

It has an excellent reputation among the people.

Among colleagues, everyone is full of praise for the Ding family and his son.

They say they have a talent for business and are kind and honest people.

The products coming out of their hands are always of high quality and good prices, and they are good things that other partners are rushing to get.

Such a kind person will surely not betray his trust. Chu Ze approached Ding Yuquan.

When he first heard that Chu Ze wanted to see him, Ding Yuquan was confused at first.

Then comes ecstasy.

"Hurry up, pack up quickly, prepare the best tea, and welcome the distinguished guests." Ding Yuquan straightened his clothes, pulled the person over, and asked him if he was dressed appropriately.

After receiving a positive answer, Ding Yuquan went out to greet Chu Ze.

At that time, Chu Ze had been waiting at the door for a while.

Just when he was wondering why no one had come out yet, he saw the front door of Ding Mansion opened.

The vermilion door slowly opened to both sides, and a vigorous and energetic half-century-old man walked out from inside.

During the movements, the posture is strong and healthy.

Like youth.

Chu Ze raised his eyebrows and thought that Mr. Ding was quite lively.

The lively Mr. Ding rushed to Chu Ze with joy in his eyes.

When he was still seven or eight steps away from Chu Ze, he slowed down and assumed a gentle posture.

Ding Yuquan walked up to Chu Ze, bowed his hands and saluted.

"Ding Yuquan, a humble citizen, has met Mr. Chu."

Chu Ze stretched out his hand to help the person up.

"You're welcome, Master Ding. It seems that Master Ding knows our purpose of coming today?" Chu Ze looked at Ding Yuquan.

The smile on Ding Yuquan's face deepened.

He shook his head and said: "I don't know. Master Chu hasn't told this villain yet. How could I know this?"

"But we see you are very happy." And the support was huge.

Chu Ze glanced behind Ding Yuquan.

For high-profile households, the middle door will not be opened unless very distinguished and important guests are visiting.

And Chu Ze never thought that the other party would greet him with such a gift.

Ding Yuquan followed Chu Ze's line of sight and immediately understood what Chu Ze meant.

He explained with a smile: "What Mr. Chu did after he arrived in Quanzhou has already spread throughout Fujian. The fact that Mr. Chu can come to the humble house is a shining light on the walls of the humble house, so it should open the middle door. As for the purpose of Mr. Chu's visit, he said To be honest, we have some guesses, but we dare not speculate.”

Chu Ze glanced at Ding Yuquan, who smiled like a fox.

This old guy doesn't dare to speculate, he has clearly finished all speculation.

Now I'm still here pretending to be confused with him.

Chu Ze glanced at him and said with a smile: "As expected of someone who can start from scratch. He does have some abilities."

"Master Chu, please give me the reward. Please come in, Master Chu."

Ding Yuquan introduced Chu Ze into the mansion and had him served with fine tea.

After Chu Ze drank tea, he got straight to the point.

"We want to cooperate with you."

Ding Yuquan's eyes were filled with laughter.

Chu Ze built a shipyard in Quanzhou, and he was jealous at that time.

But the shipyard was monopolized by that boy from the Zuo family. He provided all the funds and gave them no chance to participate.

Although Ding Yuquan felt sorry, he didn't force himself to do anything.

I thought he had no chance to reap this benefit, but he didn't expect Chu Ze to take the initiative to send it to his door.

When he heard that Chu Ze was visiting, he guessed that Chu Ze most likely wanted to cooperate with him.

If I guess correctly, the thing he wants to cooperate with is cotton.

After all, he is a businessman. This information can still be obtained by asking.

Ding Yuquan was happy in her heart, but she was still thinking about how to make money through cooperation.

"I wonder how Master Chu wants to cooperate?" Ding Yuquan asked Chu Ze.

Chu Ze replied: "The government will take the lead. You build a factory and send people to collect the cotton. After receiving it, it will be made into finished products and sold to the outside world. How about it?"

"What about the dividends?" Ding Yuquan asked.

"Six three one. The government is six, you are three, and we are one."

This score is somewhat low.

Almost all of them contributed, and the government just paid a visit.

Chu Ze only opened his mouth.

He wants to take one?

Ding Yuquan's brows, which were relaxed just now, were now tightened. (End of chapter)
