Chapter 214(1/2)

Zhang Lai's fate

Zhu Qi murmured the "self-sounding bell" several times, and after a while he waved to Zhu Yunxi.

"Come on, come here!"

Zhu Yunxi walked over happily when he heard this, but before he could ask what he was doing, Zhu Qi took his collar and turned around and kicked his butt.

"Are you stupid?"

"Your grandpa celebrates his birthday, and you actually send a bell!"

"What's wrong with sending the clock? This is also a filial piety!"

"You still have the face to ask!"

"bell!"

"end!"

"Sending a bell is sending the end!"

When Yang Xinlu and others kicked Zhu Yunxi in Zhu Qi, they already realized the problem and thought that they almost caused a disaster!

At first they were just interested in appreciating the magic of this thing, but they actually forgot that the name of this thing was a taboo.

"Thank you for the reminder of King Jin!"

King Jin waved his hand indifferently when he heard this.

"The three gentlemen are so serious. You are all knowledgeable. It is normal for you to not understand royal taboos."

"Since I am lucky enough to meet you, I will definitely remind you."

Zhu Yunxiu also reacted at this time, but he was still a little dissatisfied.

"Uncle San, you underestimate Grandpa the Emperor too much. Grandpa the Emperor is not that superstitious person!"

"Besides, I spent more than 20,000 yuan in order to study this thing, and it was almost as expensive as I could to build a workshop!"

When Zhu Qi heard this, he was so angry that he kicked his eldest nephew a few more times. The brat didn't think about it. If his grandfather was not superstitious, how could he ask him to find Zhang Lai?

But when he mentioned the workshop, a smug smile suddenly appeared on his face. His eldest nephew was amazing. He only spent 30,000 taels of silver to build a workshop, and sold it for 600,000 taels.

Although 300,000 of them were given to the palace, he left only 300,000, which was ten times the profit!

Besides, the money given to the palace is not a loss. There are so many winds blowing for him every day. Even the old man is so kind and heartless, he will be blown away, hahaha!

"Don't worry about the tens of thousands of taels of silver. Didn't Uncle San have tens of thousands of taels of silver here? Uncle San doesn't want the money anymore. Keep it for yourself!"

"In short, this thing must not be used as a birthday gift!"

"If you successfully develop this item, you can just carry it into the palace at any time. Never mention the word "send"!"

Zhu Yunxi asked unwillingly when he heard this.

"What if I change this item to a name?"

"For example, self-sounding watch?"

“Do you send a meter?”

Zhu Qi frowned and pondered for a while, feeling that this seemed to be a solution. The structure of this thing is so exquisite, it obviously took a lot of effort from my eldest nephew. It would be a pity if it was abandoned.

However, before Zhu Qi could figure it out, the three old men standing beside him shook their heads together.

"inappropriate!"

"This thing is a thing that can be heard after all. Your Majesty is old, and the most taboo thing is time..."

"If you present this item to Your Majesty, wouldn't you remind Your Majesty at all times that there is not much time left?"

After Gao Ming said this, he saw Zhu Qi looking at him with an unkind look, and hurriedly bowed and apologized.

"Your Highness calmed down, the people said irresponsible..."

"Mr. Gao's words should be paid attention to in the future. Please say less of these taboo words."

Yang Xinlu and Qin Hengbo smiled at each other when they heard this. It is unknown whether these words violated the old emperor's taboo, but at least they violated the taboo of His Highness King Jin.

From this we can see that the reputation of King Jin's Xiaodu is really good, and it is countless times stronger than other princes and vassal kings.

The King of Jin really doesn't like to listen to such words. Sometimes when he subconsciously thinks of his father's age, he will feel ache in his heart and even feel panic.

Although he knew that that day would come sooner or later, he hoped not to come forever.

"Let's change a birthday gift, if not, change it to something I bring."

"Is that broken stone?"

Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.

"Then I'd better think about something else. If it really doesn't work, change the clock and remove the function of time reporting and timing, and see if this set of machinery can do something else..."

Zhu Qi was also a little angry when he saw Zhu Yunxiu being so stubborn.

"It's up to you!"

"But if I know, you offer this to your grandfather, and see if I don't break your legs!"

Zhu Qi threatened Zhu Yunxi and left with his entourage.

After Zhu Qi left, Zhu Yunqi immediately asked the three gentlemen for advice on various auspicious auspiciousness in ancient times.

The three gentlemen thought that their students wanted to fulfill filial piety to His Majesty, so they naturally said everything they knew and said everything they said.

Even if they were beaten to death, they would never have imagined that after scraping their hearts and writing all the magical things they said on paper, they ran away happily.

Within a few days, a new shop suddenly appeared in the capital, specializing in selling magical objects.

For example, the stone slabs that can glow at night, the bronze tripod of Shang and Zhou dynasties engraved with the words Hongwu, the thousand-year-old Xuanwu with the words on the back, artificially made albino deer, etc.

Moreover, each item is equipped with a special story to increase the mystery of its background.

As soon as this shop was released, it immediately caused high-ranking officials and nobles inside and outside the capital to rush to grab it. In a few days, Zhu Yunyu earned tens of thousands of taels of silver.

However, the good times did not last long, and soon more "divine objects" appeared in the world, such as the Qingluan who could speak, the horned horn, the qilin with a long neck, etc.

Zhu Yunxi was shocked when he saw these things. The Ming Dynasty had frequent foreign exchanges, and even rhinos and giraffes could be seen?

He originally wanted to buy a few giraffes and throw them into Xuanwu Lake Park, but when he found out the price, he immediately gave up this idea.

However, more and more people selling divine stones on the market have had a significant impact on his business and made him very upset.

In fact, not only Zhu Yunyu was irritable, but several other stores selling "magic" were also very annoying.

The most annoying one is the Zhang Tianshi lineage of Longhu Mountain, but they do not open stores directly to wholesale like Zhu Yunxi. They have always done in-depth packaging and in-depth customization for customers.

For example, if officials in a certain place plunder too much wealth and ointment, they will send a few Taoist priests to investigate a certain place, and then create momentum in advance to warm up, saying that there will be magical things in a certain place at a certain moment.

Then one night, a red light or a sound like a huge thunder will appear in a certain place. Then, a woodcutter or hunter who has left his luck will walk into a cave by chance, or fall into a deep pool, and discover something magical.

Then he will be noticed by a Taoist, and spend a lot of money to buy it, and then present the item to a high-ranking official.

Then the high-ranking officials expressed their gratitude, built a Taoist temple on the mountain, or donated tens of thousands of taels of silver and incense money in Sanqing.

They have been playing this kind of thing for thousands of years and have become familiar with it for a long time.

But no one would have thought that a strange thing like Zhu Yunxi would appear in the Ming Dynasty, which would directly hit the price to freezing point!

Zhang Yuchu, the Tianshi of Longhu Mountain, stood at the door of a shop with gritted teeth. Next to him was an ordinary Taoist with neat clothes and burly figure.

This person is nothing else, but Zhang Lailuo, who Zhu Yuanzhang has been searching for but never met.

In fact, Zhang Lailuo is not so neat. Recently, he has been catching the sloppy Taoist in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, forcing him to no avail. He can only try to make himself cleaner.

For this reason, he not only broke the tradition of not taking a bath for several years, but even changed into a set of clothes for the first time and maintained a good hygiene habit of washing up every three days.

While Zhang Yuchu was gritting his teeth, Zhang Lai was staring at the store's plaque with interest.

"Operational small commodity wholesale?"

"It's interesting!"

"I didn't expect that there would be such an interesting emperor grandson in the Ming Dynasty, so I wanted to make friends with you."

Zhang Yuchu snorted coldly when he heard this.

"I have a big idea. I, Longhu Mountain, was almost squeezed by him and drank the northwest wind!"

"But what you said about making friends is not to cheat money and then go back to build your Wudang Mountain Taoist Temple?"

"It's not me that you just need to meet Emperor Zhu and make Emperor Zhu happy. Let him give you a Taoist temple full of Wudang Mountain! It's a trivial matter!"

Zhang Lailuo smiled helplessly when he heard this.

"If the emperor asks me the way to live, how do you ask me to deal with it?"

"If I really have the method of immortality, I don't have to be so timid..."

When Zhang Yuchu heard this complaint, he nodded to express his understanding.

"really!"

"The old emperor is old and loses his son in his later years. He must be extremely eager to seek immortality."
