Chapter 59 Make a fortune in silence, keeping a low profile is king

Go to the study room.

"You mean, Lan Yu and Xu Da had a secret talk after going to court?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly and asked in a cold voice:

"What did they say?"

A young eunuch crawled in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and reported to Zhu Yuanzhang what happened after he went to court today.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang successfully conveyed the imperial edict of conferring kings and guarding the border, Zhu Yuanzhang was also closely concerned about the reactions of civil and military officials.

"The villain didn't hear clearly, he only heard Yongchang Hou talking about something big."

"I'm still screaming that I'm not a fool!"

The little eunuch kneeling below was the horse who often gave orders to Li Jin.

"flutter!"

Zhu Biao next to him couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a expressionless face, and this Lan Yu was simply a bastard.

"Go and call Xu Da over here."

He Lao Zhu knew Xu Da's temperament and rarely interacted with others. He was an important official but also an isolated official. He Lao Zhu liked this personality.

In addition, Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang were childhood friends and fellow villagers. After fighting together for so many years, Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da naturally had a very deep friendship.

The summons Xu Da this time is not a suspicion of Xu Da, but just want to know what Lan Yu, a bastard, said to Xu Da.

Soon, Xu Da arrived at the study room.

"I'm going to call me, why don't you?"

When Xu Da saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he bowed his hand to the ceremony and asked Zhu Yuanzhang straight to the point.

Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang have worked with him for many years, so naturally they know Zhu Yuanzhang's temper and how to get along with Zhu Yuanzhang is the most suitable one.

"Nothing big is happening, but your sister-in-law hasn't seen you for several days and misses you a little. Let's have a meal together tonight."

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to chat with family, and seemed very friendly.

"Okay, I've long been greedy for the wine in the palace, but I'm embarrassed to drink it."

"It's still my sister-in-law who knows that I love drinking and I know that I have to take care of me."

"Do we just feel sorry for those pots of wine? When you go back tonight, get a few more pots!"

"Hehe, thank you for being above you. I'll be disrespectful."

....

At the dinner.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da, Zhu Biao and Empress Ma drank together. There was no such rule as the emperor meeting ministers, and it was more like a family eating together.

"Xu Da, you haven't come to see me for so long. Have you forgotten your sister-in-law?"

Queen Ma said that she blamed Xu Da, which made Xu Da blush.

"What's the matter with my sister-in-law? I've always remembered how kind to me."

"Don't you want to trouble my sister-in-law to cook? Every time I come, you cook yourself, and I really feel sorry for it."

"Okay, you don't want to be good at getting cheap."

Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted:

"Your sister-in-law will only cook in person when you come."

"Even we can't eat what she cooks."

"Come on, have a drink first."

The atmosphere seemed extremely harmonious while drinking and chatting.

It looks like a family, happy.

Halfway through the wine, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to mention it accidentally and asked Xu Da:

"We heard that Lan Yu wants to do business for you? I don't know what business it is?"

Xu Da's heart broke out and he hurriedly looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was just eating as if nothing had happened, he slowly let go of his worries and pretended to be nothing had happened and said:

"It was said that a young man mentioned a big deal to him, and he could earn hundreds of thousands a year, and wanted me to join him."

"He also said that he knew about this."

"High, do you know?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he knew what was going on.

It is certain that Li Jin's bastard is going to do business for Lan Yu again, and I don't know what business it will be this time.

"Buy and sell? We don't know."

Of course, the fewer people know about this kind of thing, the better. The kingly way is to make a fortune in silence.

After all, build high walls, accumulate grain, and become king!

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said:

"I can earn hundreds of thousands of taels a year, and there is such a good thing?"

"If we knew, we would have done it long ago, why would it be his turn to Lan Yu?"

Xu Da stared at Zhu Yuanzhang with his eyes fixed on him and asked:

"Advance, you won't lie to me, are you?"

"Want to take such a good deal to monopolize?"

"How could it be? Who are we? How can you not know?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little furious when Xu Da stared at him, but his expression was not fluctuating at all. He said seriously:

"You don't know that boy Lan Yu, you are full of nonsense and have no truth."

Xu Da looked at Zhu Yuanzhang again, nodded slowly, and said:

"It seems that Lan Yu lied to me and insisted on beating him tomorrow, and he let out such anger."

"Just beat him up, after all, they are all dukes, don't let others laugh at them."

Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded Xu Da. After all, if Lan Yu was beaten, he would definitely not be convinced and would argue with him.

At that time, the matter of his wealth making in silence will be exposed.

...

Late at night, after Xu Da left, Empress Ma couldn't help asking Zhu Yuanzhang:

"Zhongba, why don't Xu Da participate?"

"If we really make money, we can bring Xu Da with us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang did not answer, but asked:

"Did those mirrors sold last time?"

"Not yet, the auction house has just been built."

Queen Ma replied:

"But I have taken out a mirror to watch it for them many times in front of those nobles."

"The response is very enthusiastic. I believe that the day the filming starts will definitely be extremely popular."

After discussing with Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma decided to conduct an auction according to the auction method in Shanghu County.

After all, the benefits of that model are obvious. For treasures like mirrors, if auctioned, they may really be sold at sky-high prices.

These days, while Queen Ma asked someone to set up an auction house, she kept inviting high-ranking officials to visit the palace.

The purpose is only one, which is to promote her mirror products.

After seeing the mirror, those noble ladies couldn't put them down, and they could even be said to be crazy about them.

Everyone asked Queen Ma where they got it, and some people were even willing to pay three times the price to buy one.

However, all of them were rejected by Queen Ma. Queen Ma kept her mouth shut, but Ying Tian’s upper circle already knew something like a mirror.

The merchants in the city were also moved by the news and kept inquiring about the source of these mirrors, but they found nothing.

"Since that's the case, then wait until the mirror is sold out before talking about the others."

Zhu Yuanzhang decided to wait until the result came out before considering the cooperation with Li Jin.

Before this, in order to avoid being taken first, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally did not want to see others cooperate with Li Jin.

"Then let's see the results of the auction in a few days."
