"stand up!"

Zhu Jun helped Niu Wuliu up, "You have to recruit more soldiers. They must be loyal, preferably veterans!"

He felt that Yingtian was not safe. Although those people did not dare to attack him openly, but what if the other party used dirty tricks?

Just like this time, he was buried in the Xu family's ancestral grave, and his death was in vain, and it is still unclear.

"It's Your Highness!" Niu Wuliu said.

"Qinghe, you can put some clothes on yourself with the remaining silk and satin, and then find some old ladies to come and serve you." Zhu Jun said.

"No need, Your Highness, Qinghe has clothes!" Qinghe whispered: "Your Highness, although we have money now, we still have to save some money."

"Okay, you will be my little housekeeper from now on, but you have to learn this arithmetic!"

Qinghe's face flushed with excitement, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

...

At the same time, Cai Wen quickly ran into the palace.

In Fengtian Hall, Lao Zhu was reviewing the situation.

In the third year of Shenwu, Lao Zhu stipulated that the imperial court would meet twice a month, once on the first day of the lunar month and once on the 15th day of the lunar month.

On weekdays, he would crazily review memorials here, sometimes until late at night.

If Zhu Yu is here, he can help him share a lot of work.

"Long live my lord, Cai Wen, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, wants to see you!" said the eunuch Wang Gou'er.

Zhu Yuanzhang put down his pen and said, "Xuan!"

Wang Gou'er trotted over quickly and said, "Xuan Cai Wen comes to see you!"

Soon, Cai Wen came in, bowed and kowtowed three times, "I am a humble minister, Cai Wen, see your majesty!"

"If you're not supervising work outside the city, why are you running into the palace?"

Cai Wen smiled bitterly and replied: "Your Majesty, the city wall outside Yingtian Mansion has been completed. To be precise, the section supervised by Shen Wanqian was completed this morning."

A trace of surprise flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, "So fast? So the section I asked you to supervise has been completed?"

Cai Wendao: "Your Majesty, you have made millions of millions of dollars and spent a lot of money to hire workers to build the city wall. The number of workers far exceeds that of the Ministry of Works. Now that it is completed, please come to inspect and accept it."

"What a great Shen Wanqian." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "You really gave us a big surprise!"

Thinking of the bet he made with Shen Wanqian, Zhu Yuanzhang felt extremely unhappy.

However, it was hard for him to say anything as people contributed money and effort. Although he hated profiteers, Shen Wanqian was okay with it.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even care about the memorial at this moment, and walked away, saying to Cai Wen: "You also come with us, we want to see the difference between what you supervised and what Shen Wanqian supervised!"

In response to the Tian city wall, he mobilized a total of more than 200,000 people.

He was actually not as good as Shen Wanqian.

Cai Wen heard Zhu Yuanzhang's anger and said quickly: "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm being lazy, it's that Shen Wanqian paid a high price to buy the materials for building the city in order to complete the construction of the city wall as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more angry. You, a minister of the Ministry of Industry, can't rob a businessman for materials?

Still speaking plausibly here!

He suppressed his anger and said expressionlessly, "Go and have a look!"

Cai Wen didn't dare to say anything more and quickly followed.

Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang arrived at the city wall.

The entire Yingtian city wall is about fifty miles long, with the lowest point nearly five feet and the highest point nearly seven feet.

It is the first city wall in the world.

This was also Zhu Yuanzhang's plan to prepare for a rainy day, fearing that the war would fail.

With this tall city wall, it can hold on for at least half a year.

Of course, he has always had the courage to dominate the world. In two years, he will definitely press Chen Han and Da Zhou to the ground and rub them.

He looked at the majestic city wall, which was extremely beautifully built, and even every brick on the wall had patterns.

After climbing the city wall, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Yingtian Mansion.

At this time, Shen Wanqian was already waiting here.

Shen Wanqian, who was in his forties, looked particularly shrewd, with a square face and a chest-length beard. When he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Common people bow to your majesty!"

"Pingshen!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Shen Wanqian stood up quickly, and then said impatiently: "The people have lived up to His Majesty's expectations and built the city wall as scheduled. Please accept it!"

"Cai Wen, have you passed the acceptance inspection?"

"Your Majesty, I have already accepted the request and there is no problem," Cai Wen said.

"Okay." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Shen Wanqian, you beat us, tell me what reward you want!"

This is the moment Shen Wanqian has been waiting for. What he wants to do most is, of course, the Royal Merchant.

The next best thing is to seek for Lao Zhu Mengyin's own descendants.

Although it is good to have money, it is more important to have someone in the government.

At this time, although he had defeated Zhu Yuanzhang and received Zhu Yuanzhang's praise, his heart could not help but feel a little swollen and a little elated.

But he also didn't forget to be humble.

It's hard to get what you ask for, but it's easier to take it if you ask for it. "Common people don't dare to ask for rewards. These are what common people should do as citizens of a great cause!"

"We have always made clear rewards and punishments. You have spent a huge amount of money to build these more than ten miles of city walls. It is unjustifiable not to reward you!" Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "We heard that you have a son named Shen Dabao, so we went to the prince. Let’s read together!”

The prince reads with you?

Shen Wanqian was overjoyed. No matter how rich he was, he would eventually grow old and die.

The business he created will eventually be left to his son.

"The common people kowtow to Your Majesty on behalf of the dogs!" Shen Wanqian expressed his gratitude.

Zhu Yuanzhang said meaningfully: "This is what you deserve. Be a good businessman and don't be that profiteer!"

"The common people must bear this in mind."

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew very well that the reason Shen Wanqian worked so hard was just to curry favor with himself.

Shen Wanqian was a good money maker. The emperor was rich all over the world, but without money, life was difficult.

Therefore, he suppressed his unhappiness and wanted to leave this Shen Wanqian to Zhu Yu.

If Zhu Yu needs money in the future, he can get it from Shen Wanqian.

After saying that, he was about to leave, but at this time, Shen Wanqian said again: "The grassroots specially prepared a long live banquet for your majesty, please show your respect to your majesty!"

He is a businessman and likes to talk about things at the wine table, but he forgets that Zhu Yuanzhang is the emperor.

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered in his heart. Shen Wanqian thought so highly of himself that he actually wanted to sit at the same table with him. This made him, who had suppressed his anger, become furious again.

"Okay, lead the way!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Shen Wanqian was overjoyed and secretly glanced at Cai Wen.

Cai Wen also winked at him.

Soon, they came to a unique and quiet courtyard. After Wang Gouer tested all the dishes for poison, Zhu Yuanzhang took a seat.

"Sit down!" Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Shen Wanqian felt that everything was settled, and Shen Dabao was granted the title of Crown Prince, so he thought that Zhu Yuanzhang regarded him as one of his own, so after some evasion, he actually sat down.

Cai Wen also sat down, but he only dared to sit halfway next to him.

Seeing Shen Wanqian take his seat, he didn't feel anything wrong.

After Shen Wanqian poured wine for Zhu Yuanzhang, he introduced the dishes on the table to Zhu Yuanzhang in detail.

He talked and laughed happily, quoting classics, and made Zhu Yuanzhang smile all over his face.
