My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 48
Inside the small clay pot, two Jizhi were fighting desperately.

Zhu Zhanji on the right looked relaxed, and he was sure of winning.

Zhang Zhong on the left clenched his fists, cheering for his unlined eyebrows, but he could also see that the unlined eyebrows were no longer parable.

In the end, seeing that the unibrow had been injured in many places, Zhang Zhong sighed and raised his hand and said, "I admit defeat!"

Seeing Zhang Zhong admit defeat, the audience booed, but this did not exceed many people's expectations. Zhu Zhanji's insect king was too strong before, so most people were not optimistic about the unibrow .

Xu Yingxu, who was the judge, hurriedly separated the two worms before announcing: "One eyebrow admits defeat, the winner of this year's Autumn Competition is Taisun's King of Insects!"

Following Xu Yingxu's official announcement, there was also jubilation below. Most of these people were betting on the victory of the insect king. Although the odds were a bit low, it was better than losing.

Zhu Zhanji, who is a winner, is also very happy, but at the same time, he feels empty in his heart, as if a little unhappy.

The main reason is that the King of Worms won too easily, with almost no effort, Zhang Zhong took the initiative to admit defeat, which made Zhu Zhanji feel like punching into the empty space.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhang Zhong on the opposite side suddenly clasped his fist at Zhu Zhanji, and seemed very unconvinced and said: "Grandson, although you beat me, in my opinion, no matter how powerful your insect king is, , not as good as the copper guillotine in Zhan He's hand!"

As soon as the name "Copper Guillotine" came out, the court suddenly became quiet, and even Xu Yingxu showed surprise. You must know that the reason why there was a big upset last year was because the winner was only the first time. copper guillotine.

"Zhan He has a copper guillotine in his hand?"

Zhu Zhanji stood up straight when he heard the words, and looked at Zhu Zhanhe next to him with a burning gaze.

Last year, Zhu Zhanji lost to Copper Guillotine in his Zhizhi, and that was the only time he lost the Qiuxing Competition, and he is still not reconciled until now.

"Brother, don't listen to Zhang Zhong's nonsense, how can I have a copper guillotine?"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhanhe waved his hands again and again at this time.

"Why not? I've been coveting the copper guillotine on your desk for a long time. If it wasn't for your refusal to bring it to the competition, how could it be the Worm King's turn to win the championship?"

At this moment, Zhang Zhong said again without hesitation.

"That's right, Zhan He has a copper guillotine. I have persuaded him many times, but he just refuses to bring it to the competition."

At this time Zhu Yong also stood up and confirmed.

"Second brother, since you have a copper guillotine, why didn't you take it out for the competition earlier?"

Zhu Zhanji has no doubts anymore, but he is very puzzled by Zhu Zhanhe's actions.

"Well, I do have a copper guillotine, but I don't have much interest in jizhi, so that jizhi stays with me, just for the sound of it."

Zhu Zhanhe spread his hands and finally admitted.

"Wow~"

When the people below heard that Zhu Zhanhe took the priceless copper guillotine as a sounding insect, it exploded all of a sudden, and countless people secretly scolded Zhu Zhanhe for being a loser in their hearts.

"Great, since the second brother has such a superb weaving, why don't you use it to compete with my insect king?"

Zhu Zhanji immediately suggested that it was too easy to get a one-line eyebrow just now, and now he wants to have a more thrilling competition.

"That's unnecessary. Brother, you have already won the championship. My copper guillotine has never been compared to anyone before. It must not be your opponent!"

Zhu Zhanhe shook his head without thinking.

Zhu Zhanji was unwilling to give up, and tried to persuade him several times, but Zhu Zhanhe just didn't agree.

Finally, Zhu Zhanji became anxious, and suddenly slapped the table and said, "Second brother, as long as you agree to the competition, the conditions are up to you!"

What Zhu Zhanhe was waiting for was his words, and he suddenly asked with a chuckle: "Brother, you mean what you say, and the conditions are really up to me?"

"Of course, in front of my uncle and everyone else, since I dare to say this, I will never regret it!"

Zhu Zhanji was full of enthusiasm and announced in public.

"Okay! Big brother is really bold!"

Zhu Zhanhe saw that the other party had fallen for the trick, and immediately pointed to the little palace lady behind Zhu Zhanji, "I want her as a bet!"

As soon as Zhu Zhanhe's words came out of his mouth, the audience exploded. Zhang Zhong and Zhu Yong next to him rushed forward to cover Zhu Zhanhe's mouth, but he pushed them away.

"You... what did you say?"

Zhu Zhanji's eyes widened with anger, and he was a little confused in his anger. He never dreamed that Zhu Zhanhe would raise such a condition.

As for the little palace lady Sun who was pointed at, she opened her mouth even more at this time, and she never thought that Zhu Zhanhe would drag herself to the gambling table.

"Why, brother, have you repented?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked slowly and deliberately looked at Zhu Zhanji with a contemptuous look.

At this time, the crowd of onlookers under the stage also began to "buzz", and everyone was talking about it.

After the shock, these people all cheered up. This is a good show between the grandson and the eldest son competing for a woman. It is rare to meet once in hundreds of years. Such a big gossip must not be missed!
Feeling the gazes of the people around him and Zhu Zhanhe's contemptuous eyes, Zhu Zhanji couldn't get off the horse. He gritted his teeth and was about to agree to come down.

Unexpectedly, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Second brother, you are too shameless, set a trap for big brother to jump in!"

Zhu Zhanhe was startled, and immediately turned his head to look, only to see that Zhu Zhandi came out from the crowd, stepped onto the stage and came to Zhu Zhanji's side, obviously his injury has healed.

"Third brother, what kind of trap are you talking about?"

Zhu Zhanji was also stunned at this time, and asked Zhu Zhanfu after a while.

"Hey, you have to ask the second brother himself about this!"

Zhu Zhandi looked at Zhu Zhanhe and grinned.

"Third, what do you mean by this? How could I set a trap for Big Brother?"

Zhu Zhanhe was calm on the surface, but in his heart he secretly cried out.

Although he didn't know why Zhu Zhanfu knew that he had tricked Zhu Zhanji?But at this time, he can only be stubborn to the end.

"Hehe, the Zhizhi sold in Desheng Building was originally found by the second brother. In other words, the Zhizhi in your hands, the eldest brother, was bought from the second brother. How could you win him?"

Zhu Zhanfu chuckled again.

"What? The weaving business of Desheng Building is all owned by the crown prince?"

When the people below heard the news, they fried the pot again immediately. Very few people knew about it, and Zhu Zhanhe had issued a gag order on Desheng Building, so almost no outsiders knew about it.

Zhu Zhanhe's face was gloomy at this moment, because he suddenly thought that when Zhu Gaosui was welcoming Zhu Di into the city at the city gate, Zhu Gaosui knew that the weaving business was his own and wanted to cooperate with him, so it's not surprising that Zhu Zhanhe knew the news .

What Zhu Zhanhe couldn't figure out was why Zhu Zhandi suddenly jumped out to ruin his own good deeds?

"Zhan He, you are really calculating!"

Zhu Zhanji finally understood at this time, and immediately looked at Zhu Zhanhe with a sneer.

He has always been conceited and smart, but he never expected that he would fall into Zhu Zhanhe's trap and was almost about to be succeeded by the other party.

Zhu Zhanhe's expression was also very ugly at this time, everyone around him was staring at him and discussing, and even many people showed disdain.

If Zhu Zhanhe can't break the situation today, not only will he become the laughing stock of the entire capital, but his reputation will even become worse than his father Zhu Gaoxu.

In the eyes of everyone, Zhu Zhanhe took a deep breath, and suddenly said to Xu Yingxu who was beside him: "Uncle, can I use my pen and ink?"

"Bring a pen and ink!"

Although Xu Yingxu didn't know what Zhu Zhanhe was going to do, he still gave instructions immediately.

Soon someone brought pen and ink, Zhu Zhanhe picked up the pen and paper, wrote a few words on the paper with his back to everyone, and turned around after folding it.

"Brother, I'm ready. When will we start competing?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked Zhu Zhanji with a bright smile.

"Zhu Zhanhe, are you confused? I buy all my weaving from you. Do you think I'm stupid enough to compare with you?"

Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Zhanhe with a strange expression, and even wondered if the other party was out of his mind?
"That's right, brother, I did sell your insect king!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhanhe nodded and admitted directly, then glanced at everyone present and said again.

"Including the woven fabrics you bought in Desheng Building, I sold them all, and I'm not afraid to tell you that I know a place where the woven fabrics have both the strength of the southern worm and the fierceness of the northern worm. In less than a month after I went there, I brought back more than 100 top-grade Zhizhi, and sold [-] to [-] sticks!"

When Zhu Zhanhe said this, he suddenly lifted up the paper that had been folded into squares in his hand, and said loudly again: "I have written the place that is rich in production and weaving on this piece of paper, anyone who gets it can find that place !"

"Boom~"

Zhu Zhanhe's words were like detonating a nuclear bomb. Everyone looked at the piece of paper in his hand with fanaticism. If there was warmth in their gaze, this piece of paper might be burned to ashes immediately!

It only took Zhu Zhanhe less than a month to earn [-] to [-] guan. If he had enough time, he would earn at least [-] guan in a year. Some well-known wealthy businessmen in the capital have a total net worth of this amount.

Zhu Zhanhe held the piece of paper around for a while, and then came to Zhu Zhanji again, put the priceless piece of paper in front of him and said: "Brother, I bet on this place, are you satisfied? "

Zhu Zhanji looked at the pieces of paper on the table, and a frenzy flashed in his eyes. As a person who is obsessed with weaving, this is obviously an irresistible temptation.

But Zhu Zhanji finally shook his head and sneered: "This is a game you must win. What's the use of betting again?"

"Brother, you misunderstood. I bet on this place. If you win, you take this piece of paper. If you lose, this piece of paper is still yours, but..."

Having said this, Zhu Zhanhe once again pointed at the maid Sun Xiao: "She must come with me!"

"Zhan He, you are crazy!"

Zhang Zhong and Zhu Yong next to him yelled when they heard the words, wishing they could stop Zhu Zhanhe immediately.

A place that is rich in high-grade knitting, not only satisfies people's love for knitting, but also brings huge profits. Tens of thousands or even 10,000+ knitting a year is enough to buy a harem!
Zhu Zhanji was also shocked when he heard Zhu Zhanhe's words, that is to say, as long as he is willing to compete, no matter whether he wins or loses, this place that is rich in high-grade weaving is his own, and the price is only a female official beside him.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help turning his head to look at the little palace lady next to him.

Although Zhu Zhanji liked this little female official quite a lot, but he had more than one female official by his side, so for him, little palace lady Sun could be a substitute.

In contrast, there is no substitute for a place that is rich in high-quality woven fabrics, which can not only satisfy his enthusiasm for woven fabrics, but also bring huge profits for himself.

The expression on Zhu Zhanji's face changed, and finally he reached out slowly and grabbed the piece of paper on the table.

It's just that Zhu Zhanji didn't know that Ningjin, which is rich in weaving and weaving, was originally found by him more than ten years later. Zhu Zhanji took his things and exchanged his future queen.
