I'm really not doing business

Chapter 319 Killing Japanese pirates?Enough wine!

In terms of thermal insulation ability, the strongest thermal clothing is leather jacket, followed by feather jacket, and finally cotton.

The reason why leather jackets are frost-resistant is that they have a wide range of applicability. For example, in humid conditions, the warmth retention capacity will not drop significantly, and both feather jackets and cotton will harden to varying degrees. For example, leather jackets are naturally windproof, while feather jackets and cotton are windproof. The ability is extremely weak; for example, the warmth of leather jackets does not depend on the fluffiness, while down jackets and cotton need to be removed and washed regularly to ensure the fluffiness of down and cotton.

Playing cotton is a physical activity.

Fur, linen, silk, down and wool are all better textile raw materials than cotton. However, these items are very outstanding in certain aspects, but the cost is higher and the balance is poor. Cotton is the most balanced.

The reason why Zhu Yijun still wants to promote cotton is not only about balance, but also because cotton is cheap.

Cotton is an extremely drought-tolerant plant. Calculating the guaranteed wheat harvest as a unit, cotton only needs 2.56% water to obtain [-]% of the harvest. In saline-alkali land where no grass can grow, cotton also has extremely strong vitality, and its yield is only less than that of a standard field. About [-]%, if irrigation can be ensured, the yield will only be reduced by [-]%.

However, most of the causes of saline-alkali land are water shortages, and it is basically impossible to ensure sufficient irrigation. The production of saline-alkali land has been reduced by [-]%, which is already an extremely high figure.

Just like the last time Zhu Yijun went to do farming and mulberry farming, he saw that cotton can be grown in the desert land. The purpose of promoting cotton planting is just to give the people one more crop and one more source of income.

Food and clothing are the basis of human life.

Because of the experience in promoting sweet potatoes and potatoes, the promotion of cotton has become simpler. The main promotion direction is not Songjiang, but Shaanxi and Shaanxi Xingdusi. The reason why it is promoted to Shaanxi and Shaanxi Xingdusi (Gansu) There are historical reasons as well as natural endowments.

Around the time of the Shang Dynasty, cotton was introduced to China. At that time, it was called Baidie, Zhibei, and a kind of silk coin.

It was during the Song Dynasty that the word cotton appeared for the first time. Before that, it was written as Mian. Before the Song Dynasty, most cotton was grown in the Western Regions and Yunnan and Guizhou. It was not until the end of the Song Dynasty that cotton began to be planted in the hinterland of the Central Plains.

When promoting the planting of cotton in Shaanxi and Gansu, there was still no Western Region in the Ming Dynasty. If there had been, then Zhu Yijun would have planted cotton in the Western Region to increase the imperial court's economic control over the Western Region.

Wang Chonggu is really good at doing business. You must know that Baoqisi is in Xiyuan. Wang Chonggu dare not infiltrate into Xiyuan, because that would make Zhang Siwei second. Wang Chonggu did not have any intelligence sources during the court discussion. , fully supports His Majesty’s transfer of Huafang investment into the cotton spinning industry chain, because he has a keen sense of the trend.

Zhu Yijun, Wan Shihe, and Zhang Xueyan discussed many investment matters in detail.

The sky has begun to get hotter, with the scorching sun in the sky, mist evaporating from the ground, the leaves and flowers drooping, and the cicadas chirping vigorously, telling everyone with their noise that the scorching heat has arrived. Zhu Yijun was sweating profusely in the martial arts room, staring at The tip of the wooden sword in front of him, and the target of his sparring, was naturally the second best player in the youth group, Luo Sigong.

"Bang bang!" The wooden swords were swung with the sound of dragon roar, and they collided together. Zhu Yijun was not paying attention, and was hit on the right shoulder by Luo Sigong. Although he was protected by iron armor, the shock still caused Zhu Yijun to hurt. Luo Sigong He is already a young man and his hands are extremely strong.

"You win!" Zhu Yijun put away his Qijia waist sword and ended today's sparring. He had never relaxed in his martial arts practice during the summer training period, but he was never injured again. After all, he had Iron Hun Armor and could only Tired to the point of exhaustion.

Luo Sigong was disrespectful and showed no mercy.

"Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty." Luo Sigong still knew what he was doing. After fifteen rounds of sparring, Luo Sigong won a total of five times. The last time, His Majesty let him go, and Luo Sigong didn't lose so ugly.

Zhu Yijun did not hold back. Wang Yaozhuo worked hard until midnight yesterday, and he got up early this morning. Zhu Yijun was really weak at this point.

"Today is as usual, one roast goose for each person." Zhu Yijun took off the goose and announced the reward. Every seven days, twenty sparring partners would get one roast goose for each person. He would never give more or less.

He watched the empress dowagers of the two palaces, Wang Yaozhuo and others talking and laughing. Even if he was not angry at all, he would be exhausted. They were sitting in the pavilion, drinking iced sour plum soup, and the more they looked at them, the more angry they became. Zhu Yijun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw Zhu Yili!
Empress Dowager Li doted on King Lu very much. After King Lu begged him to practice martial arts, Empress Dowager Li finally issued an edict to give King Lu four days of rest. Today happened to be Zhu Yixuan's rest day.

"His Royal Highness King Lu, Your Majesty calls His Highness King Lu to come and practice sparring." Zhang Hong walked up to King Lu, bowed his head and said.

Zhu Yirui pointed at himself, looked at the emperor in horror and said, "I want to compete with my brother?!"

"Your Majesty said so." Zhang Hong nodded and said.

"Stomach hurts!" Zhu Yili rolled his eyes, stamped his feet, and ran away.

Zhu Yijun looked at the kid's back and could only shake his head helplessly. King Lu was resting today, so it seemed that he couldn't be beaten.

Zhu Yijun walked over, and Wang Yaozhuo served Zhu Yijun a bowl of warm pear sugar water. Once, Wang Yaozhuo was curious and tasted His Majesty's must-have drink. The taste was very similar to a big bowl of tea, and it was not iced. A bowl of tea is similar to horse urine, but a large bowl of iced tea is from Guojiao!

Your Majesty's specially prepared pear sugar water is a bit sweet and a bit salty at the same time. It tastes like horse urine with sweet and salty taste at the same time. It is very unpleasant to drink. However, Your Majesty said that after a lot of exercise, you need to replenish sugar, water and salt. No matter how difficult it is, You have to drink it. Zhu Yili hates this special pear sugar water. Every time he drinks it, it feels like drinking medicine.

After Zhu Yijun drank the pear sugar water and took off his armor, he planned to go to Peking University Camp to parade the military horses.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the Ministry of War!" A small yellow gatekeeper handed the memorial from the Ministry of War and a newspaper to His Majesty the Emperor.

The contents of the Ministry of War memorial and the Tang newspaper are the same thing. In April, the guardian of Satsuma, Shimazu Takahisa, raided Ryukyu, attacked Kume Island, captured a total of 120 Kumeshi people, and burned the Ryukyu capital. Naha Port, the seaport of Rifu, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. A total of three merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty heading to Ryukyu were robbed, and the rest either defeated the enemy or escaped because of the size of the ship.

The Ryukyu King Shangjiu asked the Ming Emperor to garrison troops.

"Xuan Zeng excuses me, Wang Guoguang." Zhu Yijun did not remove his armor and went to the Wenhua Hall. He could wait for a while to parade the military horses and deal with the urgent national affairs first.

After the emperor left, Empress Dowager Li looked at Wang Yaozhuo and said with a frown, "It's been three months since the wedding. Is there still no movement in your stomach?"

"Your Majesty said there is no rush." ​​Wang Yaozhuo felt the terrifying pressure that caused the birth, and she wanted to have it too. Wasn't this because her stomach was not living up to expectations?After the wedding, there will not be too much pressure for one to three years, but after three years, without any movement in his stomach, Wang Yaozhuo is in danger. After all, Emperor Xuanzong once killed Hu Shanxiang because he had no heirs. It's ruined.

This sentence of "not in a hurry" was the reason why Zhu Yijun gave Wang Yaozhuo some excuses.

"After all, the emperor is already married and is now in charge of the government. When the child is older, his parents will no longer have to take care of it, which will make him annoying." Empress Dowager Chen handed Wang Yaozhuo a step next to him and asked Wang Yaozhuo to come down. .

In fact, Wang Yaozhuo also knew why there had been no movement. It was not easy to have pleasure if it was too greedy. If there was indeed urging, then we should not be so greedy anymore.

After meeting with the left minister of the Ministry of War Zeng Shengwu and Da Situ Wang Guoguang, Zhu Yijun went to Beidaying to parade the military horses, and then from Beidaying to Yicheng Bofu. Even though today was not the 23rd, Zhu Yijun still went.

After receiving the news, Zhang Juzheng hurried out to wait. There was no threshold in Zhang Juzheng's Yicheng residence, making it convenient for His Majesty to come over at any time.

This time, His Majesty's chariot was also driven by the elderly Yu Dayou. This old man had spent his whole life fighting against Japanese invaders. At this age, he was still working for His Majesty. Although he could not go into battle, he persuaded the warriors in the Wenhua Palace, which was of great significance.

"The Shimazu family suddenly attacked Ryukyu on the grounds that Ryukyu was too close to our Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yijun came to Wenchang Pavilion and explained the purpose of his visit.

"This is simply unreasonable! Ryukyu is a tributary vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. It pays tribute every year, and the king of Ryukyu is canonized by our Ming Dynasty. Isn't it just for the purpose of canonizing the king of Ryukyu by my Ming Dynasty? Isn't it just to canonize the king of Ryukyu? Come closer?! What's going on with these Japanese pirates?!"

Yu Dayou sat on the swivel chair, holding the armrest tightly and said: "Your Majesty, the navy of the Ming Dynasty is ready to be called upon. Those who come can fight and win the battle!"

Who said that Qi Shuai is the only military strategist in the world?Yu Dayou suffered a loss because he was too old to fight. Otherwise, he would take the Ming Dynasty Navy with him and let His Majesty the Emperor see what it means to be old and strong.

The navy of the Ming Dynasty was sharpening its swords and waiting for the day. It had been waiting for this day for a long time. Before, King Shangjiu of Ryukyu had been unwilling to agree to the conditions of the Ming Dynasty's garrison. Now, King Shangjiu of Ryukyu finally relented.

"I'm afraid that I won't have enough food reserves." Zhang Juzheng said with some worry.

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng, thought carefully and said, "The national cellar has [-] barrels."

When Zhang Juzheng heard this, he immediately said: "Heaven and Fuzhu should be blamed! How dare the Japanese pirates be so rampant!"

The core content of Zhu Yijun's New Deal is the opening of the sea, and the core content of Zhang Juzheng's New Deal is official governance. These two together constitute the Wanli New Deal, and there is also a great tacit understanding between the monarch and his ministers. For example, Zhu Yijun said that this national cellar has [-] barrels, and the Hanlin Academy's The supervisors of Hanlin and Guozijian probably didn't know what it meant, but Zhang Juzheng immediately understood its meaning.

He highly praised the shipping of grain by sea and invented the grain tank. Although Zhang Juzheng's grain tank cannot be compared with a wooden cow and a flowing horse, it is also a powerful weapon for water transportation.

Zhang Juzheng was familiar with maritime affairs, and the most important thing for long voyages was liquor, especially spirits, because they had to be mixed with rainwater to reduce the chance of getting sick. At sea, there was no way to boil water, so they were stored in rainwater and mixed with wine.

Fourteen thousand barrels of national cellars were the reserves of the Ming Emperor.

Enough with the wine, let alone the rest.

"I, the pirates in the southeast of the Ming Dynasty, were caused by Ryukyu. The Japanese pirates used Ryukyu as a springboard to flee to the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty. However, the navy of the Ming Dynasty was weak. If they were not prepared, they would be attacked by prefectures and counties, and the people would suffer." Zhang Juzheng began to chant again, He repeatedly reiterated the importance of Ryukyu to the Ming Dynasty.

Many people in the Ming Dynasty actually lacked understanding of the importance of Ryukyu and always thought that it was just an overseas island country.

"Emperor Sejong saw through this at the beginning, so he arranged to go to Ryukyu to seal the king of Ryukyu. The purpose was to strengthen political restraint." Zhang Juzheng talked about old things, Fengzhou in the Ming Dynasty.

In the 11th year of Jiajing's reign, Emperor Sejong sent Chen Kan and Gao Cheng to Ryukyu to canonize King Shangqing of Ryukyu. This was also the first time in the Ming Dynasty that the king of Ryukyu was canonized. The fundamental purpose was just two words, Jinghai. .

At that time, the Japanese invasion was already becoming more and more serious.

"It's rare that the gentleman said something good about Emperor Shizong." Zhu Yijun was quite surprised to hear Zhang Juzheng praising Emperor Shizong for his wisdom!
Zhang Juzheng said slightly dejectedly: "Emperor Shizong just failed to conquer the end."

Zhang Juzheng has never denied Master Dao's cleverness and his control over national affairs, but Master Dao's defeat was due to his defeat.Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng who was hesitant to speak, then waved his hand and continued to discuss the situation in Ryukyu. After the Taoist Master lost Zhang Cong, he no longer had a good minister. Without Zhang Juzheng in the court, Zhu Yijun and Li What can the Queen Mother, an orphan and a widowed mother, do in the face of a Ming Dynasty that is riddled with holes?

"Sir, why doesn't Grandpa want to fight?" Zhu Yijun asked slightly strangely.

Zhang Juzheng looked extremely complicated and said, "I can't stand it."

Military talent is already scarce, and what is even more scarce is that this person is loyal to the country. Master Dao does have Qi Jiguang, but before Master Dao failed, Qi Jiguang had not succeeded General Mingwei and commanded the Dengzhou Guard, and Yu Dayou was still running into obstacles everywhere. , hope to be recommended by others.

If the time doesn't work, you will suffer from it.

Antonio took a hydrofoil sailboat and arrived at Songjiang Prefecture Xingang, but after staying for one night, he did not return to the ship immediately. Instead, he went to Da Baoen Temple. He wanted to take another look at the Liuli Pagoda. Every time he came to Daming, he would Come here and feel the prosperity, prosperity and power of the Ming Dynasty.

"Marchus, after we leave the Ming Dynasty this time, I'm afraid we will never be able to come back here again. The arrogant Philip will never let me be the captain of a long voyage again, because I have a dagger that threatens him. Antonio looked at the majestic glazed tower, exhaled, and said solemnly.

Felipe II may be arrogant, but he will never despise any enemy. Likewise, he is very cautious. This time Antonio got twelve five-masted ocean-going ships from the Ming Emperor, and Felipe II He will never be allowed to continue to come to the Far East and continue trading with the Ming Dynasty.

As the ship owner, Felipe II just changed the captain to lead the team.

"If we can defeat him, we may not be able to see the majesty of the Glazed Tower again. Mr. Captain, be more optimistic." Marcus is Antonio's first mate, Antonio's confidant, and Antonio's guard. He hopes that his The captain can be more optimistic.

Antonio looked at his first mate and said solemnly: "The Ming Emperor's vision can see through thousands of miles of sea and clearly see the situation in Taixi. At this time, Antonio is far behind Philip in terms of strength. There is a huge gap between him and him. People are desperate in the Pacific, and the emperor of Ming Dynasty refused to give me a powerful navy because he did not think that I could win and it was not worth investing more."

"Marcus, now you have a choice. Stay here and guard Legashi. This is a civilized land. The people here are far kinder than us in the West. Even if people look at you with strange eyes, they won't do it. Your life."

"Are you going to stay?"

Marcus asked doubtfully: "Why didn't the captain stay together? The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty admired the captain's courage very much. After all, he had been coming to the Ming Dynasty for several years and then returned to Taixi. This kind of courage is not common, and the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty also The captain is required to have rich navigation experience. If the captain is willing to stay in the Ming Dynasty, there will also be a position for the captain in the ever-expanding maritime school in Songjiang Prefecture."

"Although the captain's wealth is not as good as that of Philip or the Ming Emperor, it can still allow the captain to spend his life comfortably, and he can spend his life very luxuriously."

This was Marcus' doubts. Antonio never seemed to want to stay. The Spanish envoy Legaz had obviously made up his mind to settle down in the Ming Dynasty and never planned to return to the West. In a religious country, it was against the law. As promised to God, Legaz returned to Spain to be burned alive at the stake.

"The people of the Ming Dynasty are very kind. They call us Hong Mao Fan, but they never kill us as soon as we meet. Even as long as we pay taxes, we will not face difficulties from the tax officials. In Thailand, Portugal, and A group of people who need me, people as kind as the people of Ming Dynasty." Of course Antonio hesitated, Antonio was very envious of Legaz's little life.

But Antonio can't stay, someone needs him.

If Zhu Yijun hears this, he will definitely not agree with it. The people of Ming Dynasty are not as kind as Antonio saw, but compared with the people of Taixi, they must be standing on the moral high ground.

"Then my captain, no, my king! Then go back to the West." Marcus drew out his sword and made a beautiful sword flower. When Antonio first arrived at the port, Chen Lin and Marcus After fighting, although Marcus lost, Chen Lin was the most powerful player in the Ming dynasty.

Antonio asked doubtfully: "Why don't you want to stay?"

Marcus said with a smile: "Because my king also needs my sword."

Antonio smiled broadly, looked at the towering Glazed Tower again, and said slightly absent-mindedly: "We have a high probability of losing, but it is not without a little hope. I felt a power in Ming Dynasty. This power may allow me to lose." Powerful enough to rival Philip.”

This power was enough to change the color of heaven and earth, which was also the reason for Antonio to make up his mind.

Give it a try, what if you win?

Antonio no longer wanted to go to the tower. Even in the Ming Dynasty, except for the cleaning eunuchs and Xu Bangrui, the Duke of Wei who guarded Nanya, no one else was qualified to go to the tower to worship.

Songjiangfu Shipyard has prepared twelve five-masted ocean-going ships for delivery. Xu Fan has been preparing for delivery in Songjiangfu. Xu Fan plans to go to sea again, and the translation is left to Gao Qiyu.

Xu Fan went to Yicheng Bo to find Zhang Juzheng, asking Zhang Juzheng to persuade Xu Jie.

Xu Fan returned home and had another big quarrel with Xu Jie. Last time, because of the worse Beikong, Xu Jie's evil deeds were blocked and Xu Jie escaped by chance, but Xu Jie was still there. When Xu Fan and Xu Jie quarreled with those cheap Confucians, Xu Jie said that they only made friends through literature.

What is Xu Jie's identity? !He is the former chief minister, and he has been working with Yan Song in the cabinet for more than [-] years. He has many talents all over the world, and he makes friends through literature?Does Xu Jie believe what he said?

Xu Fan found Zhang Juzheng, hoping that Zhang Juzheng could persuade Xu Jie, and if he continued to make troubles, the nine tribes would be gone. In fact, Xu Fan was not afraid of Xu Jie's troubles. With Xu Jie's ability, what could he do?Zhang Juzheng looked at Xu Jie. What could Xu Jie do if he climbed to the sky?
Xu Fan was worried that others would blame the Xu family for dirty things.

Even if Zhang Juzheng can't persuade him, he can still get a restraining order for Xu Jie, lock him in his home, rename his home Tianlao, and treat him as a prisoner. Don't let Xu Jie go through any more troubles.

But Zhang Juzheng said that he was powerless. The last time Zhang Juzheng came to Xu Jie to fall out with him and questioned Xu Jie about Huishantang, the two of them completely cut off contact. On the other hand, Zhang Juzheng could not get a restraining order from the emperor. Besides, Xu Jie really What do you want to do? Is that prohibited by the ban?
Seeing no hope, Xu Fan planned to leave his homeland again and head to Western Europe.

The old Xu family still has to leave roots and seedlings.

On June [-], all the five-masted ocean-going ships were fully prepared and lined up in the harbor, like a giant beast crawling on the water. The two-masted and three-masted plywood ships, in front of the giant beast, It seems that it only needs a slight collision to be smashed into pieces.

This is not an appearance, but a fact, because the five-masted ocean crossing ship is an improved version and is equipped with a steel ram. If it is hit by a five-masted ocean crossing ship at full speed, the three-masted plywood ship will be smashed to pieces.

"We have tested this collision angle. When sailing at full speed, we smashed one plywood ship and tore one apart." Zhao Shizhen stood under the ship, looking up at the giant ship, and said with great pride.

Guo Rulin said with a smile: "If Captain Antonio doesn't believe it, you can move here. We salvaged the wreckage of the crashed plywood ship, as well as the torn one, and pulled it back together."

"I want to see it." Antonio said with great conviction.

"Come this way." Guo Rulin took Antonio to a huge shipyard. This shipyard contained a pile of debris and a severely damaged three-masted plywood ship. The three-masted plywood ship was modeled after Taixi's flagship - Galese. Battleships and converted merchant ships have exactly the same hull structure.

Being able to smash and tear apart a ship shows how powerful it is.

"This is Galese, where the Armada is invincible." Antonio said with emotion as he looked at the fragments and the torn ship.

Antonio was lamenting the arrogance of the Ming Dynasty. A five-masted ocean crossing ship and two three-masted plywood ships were just smashed and scrapped. It was like playing games. On the other hand, he was lamenting that Taixi's shipbuilding had indeed lost its product advantage. , and finally and most importantly, he was sighing, this five-masted plywood ship is really powerful!

Whether hitting the corner is useful or not will be clear after just hitting it.

This is not a dagger that threatens Felipe II. It is clearly a nine-pound cannon that threatens Felipe II!

"My Ming Dynasty has currently deployed 24 ocean-going ships. If Captain Antonio really plans to become a pirate near the Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid it will be a thankless task. Your Majesty dares to give it because we can completely eliminate each other." The reason why Guo Rulin wanted to show Antonio the fragments , Firstly, it is a display. Antonio paid all his plantations in exchange for a reduced ship, which is extremely powerful. Secondly, it is a threat.

It was a clear threat, telling Antonio that if he stayed in Ming's sphere of influence and committed evil, Ming could really destroy him.

Antonio smiled. The Hongmaofan was one of the pirates of the Ming Dynasty. These pirates included the desperadoes who could not survive the Ming Dynasty, the Japanese pirates from the Japanese country, the Hongmaofan, the big cannibals, etc.

When there was no navy in the Ming Dynasty, these pirates were useless. Now in the waters of the Ming Dynasty, the flying coastal defense inspection water is the only weapon to harvest pirates.

I hope the sea will be peaceful. This is probably Qi Jiguang's lifelong wish. If you want to wipe out the pirates, the most important and difficult thing is to find the other party's lair, and the water-flying people can really find the lair of the pirates.

Antonio really didn't want to die. Those flying watermen were powerful enough themselves, and the navy masters they could summon were even more powerful.

Antonio and his fleet were ready to set sail. A total of 21 five-masted ocean-going ships were going out to sea. The few extra ships were sent by the Daming Navy, this time to Ryukyu.

The King of Ryukyu, Shangjiu, agreed to the Ming Emperor's request to garrison troops and provided three good ports for the Ming Dynasty's navy to garrison. Shangjiu could no longer care about whether it was about denying the wolf or about drinking poison to quench his thirst.

Shimazu Yoshihiro, the guardian of the three kingdoms of Satsuma, Osumi, and Hyuga, invaded Shuri Prefecture and burned down Naha Port. If Shangjiu hadn't run fast, Shangjiu would have been captured and taken to Japan by now!
Shangjiu couldn't wait to ask the Ming Dynasty to come to garrison, and the Songjiang Navy began to go to Ryukyu to suppress Japanese invaders, conduct regular cruises, and garrison troops.

The first step was to destroy the Japanese. Only by completely wiping out the Japanese in Ryukyu would the Japanese not be able to use Ryukyu as a springboard to attack the Ming Dynasty. This was the first long-distance voyage of the Ming Navy.

"Does Dr. Xu also want to go to Taixi?" Antonio looked at Xu Fan who was getting on the boat together and asked in horror.

"Yeah." Xu Fan sighed and shook his head and said, "It's hard to have both loyalty and filial piety. I don't want to be disloyal or unfilial, so I have no choice but to run away."

Antonio's eyes lit up and he said with great expectation: "Then, respected Dr. Xu, can you become my staff? You know, my people are very brave, but they are not smart."

"When Guo Rulin, the general manager of Songjiang Shipyard, left, he presented a barrel of Guojiao as a gift. Come, let us have a drink from this cup and wish us happy cooperation." Xu Fan sent someone to put out two glasses of wine and handed one to Antonio.

In the first year of Wanli, Guojiao was one of the flagship products of Daming Sea Trade. Xu Fan also had an identity as a wine peddler, selling Guojiao.

　The first year of Wanli was 1573. In other words, the wine sold by the emperor was called Guojiao 1573. Haha, please give me a monthly pass, ow! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
