Hu Sanshe said with a smile, but suddenly heard a voice, "Nephew Hu Xian, come here!"
Call yourself nephew?
Hu Sanshe was a little startled. He felt that the laws in front of the army were strict, so he came to Dingyuan specifically to take charge of the military camp. It stands to reason that those who are qualified to call him nephew are not in Dingyuan, so who is this?
He turned his head and happened to see a majestic face with sharp edges. Hu Sanshe trembled. Looking to the side, he saw a handsome and gentle boy with his head lowered. Next to him was a boy of twelve or thirteen years old.
The kid was squinting at him from the corner of his eyes, smiling and looking evilly.
Hu Sanshe knew all three of them!
It’s over!
He felt a buzzing in his head, his legs felt weak, his palms were sweaty, and he was about to kneel down.
Before he could kneel down, Zhu Ying came over, reached out and grabbed Hu Sanshe, "Brother Hu, don't be so polite, my dad wants to have a good chat with you!"
Zhu Yingren was very strong, so he grabbed Hu Sanshe and pushed him down opposite Zhu Yuanzhang.
At this time, Hu Sanshe's hands and feet were trembling, his heart was beating wildly, his soul was about to fly, his lips were trembling, and he was speechless.
Zhu Yuanzhang, however, took his time and said to the waiter with a smile: "When we meet, our uncle and nephew will go get your best wine... I will send it to you from my eldest nephew."
Hu Sanshe couldn't feel that something was wrong, brewing wine privately was a capital crime! He wanted to defend himself, but Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were majestic. Under his gaze, he couldn't say a word. He just trembled and wanted to bury his head in the ground.
At this time, the waiter brought the wine over. Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed the wine jar and poured a bowl for Hu Sanshe without any explanation!
"drink!"
Hu Sanshe held up the wine bowl with trembling hands, and kept spilling the wine. Lao Zhu didn't care about anything, just watched and let him drink.
In desperation, Hu Sanshe could only take a sip, but she choked and coughed.
Lao Zhu chuckled and said: "You are a kid after all! This grain wine is much better than fruit wine, why are you still coughing? We don't even know that your kid has such a way to make a fortune. Does your father know?"
father!
Hu Sanshe finally regained his consciousness and hurriedly shook his head, "I don't know, I don't know! He doesn't know anything!"
Hu Dahai wasn't involved, so it's not too bad!
Zhang Ximeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled: "Then you are quite unfilial! You are quite unfilial to make a fortune by yourself and leave so many uncles and uncles aside, even your father is kept in the dark. You are quite unfilial!"
Hu Sanshe was so frightened that he could only say repeatedly: "Death penalty, death penalty!"
Seeing Mr. Hu being scolded like a grandson, the restaurant owners all realized that something was wrong.
Judging from this tone, these people did not take Hu Dahai seriously. He must be a general in the Zhu family army.
Getting involved with Hu Sanshe is just a small fight. If you want to really make a fortune, you have to look at those big shots!
If the generals in the army are willing to get involved, this business will be huge.
The boss rolled his eyes and immediately asked the waiter to go to the back. After a while, several jars of fine wine were brought out. The boss personally held them in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
He bowed and smiled in apology, "Sir, when you uncle and nephew meet, I have nothing else but some fine wine, so I want to show my respect!"
Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "He sent all this?"
"No, it's not from Mr. Hu." The boss's voice was a little trembling. He was also betting on a big fortune!
"It's not his? Is it yours?" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his voice.
The boss gritted his teeth and said cruelly: "To tell you what to say to your lord, I just heard your lord's blame, saying that Mr. Hu made a fortune on his own... In fact, it's easy to make a big fortune. Naturally, it's not just the ones who deliver wine to small restaurants.
Mr. Hu is alone. There are many others. Their wines are better and their brewing techniques are also proficient. They just don’t have enough food... If you are willing to help, not only the business in Dingyuan, Chuzhou, Hezhou, and even Jiangnan will be improved.
It’s ours!”
The owner of the restaurant raised his head and said sincerely: "You only need to nod your head, and I will take care of the rest. I guarantee that you will make a lot of money!"
"Making money?" Lao Zhu couldn't help but chuckle and sighed to himself: "Yes, no one doesn't love money, so let's take a look at your drinks!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand to grab the wine jar and tore open the seal. The aroma of wine wafted out instantly. Lao Zhu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "This wine is clear and refreshing, with a mellow aroma. It looks like a good wine from Laojiao... What do you think, sir?"
Zhang Ximeng poured a bowl, looked at it, and said, "He is indeed a good brewer. I'm just afraid Mr. Hu can't make it!"
Hu Sanshe was so frightened that he could not speak. He could only lower his head as he could not care about his boss.
The boss nodded quickly, "Sir, you really have a good eye. There is no shortage of good winemakers now, but there is no food. Now as long as Mr. Hu is willing to help get food, half of the profit from the wine produced will naturally belong to Mr. Hu."
If you are willing to help, you can naturally follow Mr. Hu’s instructions!"
"Oh!" Lao Zhu smiled, "What? We also have a share?"
The owner of the restaurant bowed deeply and said with a smile: "Of course, you are much better than Mr. Hu!"
"Can you tell?"
The boss nodded and said almost flatteringly: "I can see that although you are wearing ordinary clothes, you are naturally noble and natural. In addition, you are powerful and handsome. He must be a general in the army? I would venture to guess, you
Is it General Xu Daxu, or General Tang Hetang?"
Lao Zhu couldn't help but laugh, "You have pretty good taste? Do you know both Xu Da and Tang He?"
"This... I just heard about it, I admire it in my heart, and I wish I could meet it with my own eyes."
Lao Zhu continued to laugh and said: "Are you trying to drag them into trouble? You think Mr. Hu can't protect you, right?"
Seeing that Lao Zhu's tone was not kind, the restaurant owner was so frightened that he waved his hands quickly, "My lord, I don't mean that... I just feel that good wine has been indispensable since ancient times. Heroes in the military, who doesn't like good wine? Little one.
I just want to serve you generals!"
"Really? How much money are you going to spend on the service? Just now you said 50%, is that too little?" Lao Zhu asked with a smile.
"Less! Sure enough, it's less! The guy is not sensible, and I am willing to honor him 70%, 70%!" The boss quickly changed his words and showed full sincerity.
Lao Zhu laughed loudly, glanced at Zhang Ximeng, who had been silent, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, they are willing to give us 70%!"
Zhang Ximeng has nothing to say to this boss who has thrown himself into a trap and is too smart.
He could only sigh: "It seems that my lord is indeed much more prestigious than the Yuan Ting officials. After all, they are only willing to give 30% to the Yuan Ting officials, and they still have to kneel down to receive the reward. The lord can get 70% while standing.
First of all, Timur and the others will be crying!"
"snort!"
Lao Zhu suddenly slammed the table and growled: "Seventy percent! We want ten percent! Not only do we want profit, but we also want life!"
After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up directly and walked out angrily.
The boss and the waiters were left dumbfounded. Who was this person? What did they say wrong?
Not satisfied with 70%? It’s life-threatening!
Who do you think you are?
Superior?
Zhang Ximeng patted Hu Sanshe on the neck and sighed: "Let's go and wait for the Lord to be punished!"
Lord!
As soon as these two words came out, the restaurant owner paralyzed. His whole body was shaking without saying a word, and a wave of warmth flowed out of his body. He was so scared that he peed!
Zhang Ximeng was too lazy to talk nonsense and let Zhu Ying pull Hu Sanshe and walked out. As soon as he got outside, guards came over. Zhang Ximeng directly ordered: "Go, seal this restaurant, and no wine inside is allowed to flow out.
We also need to keep an eye on the personnel accounts, which are all important evidence!"
The guard agreed and went as ordered.
Zhang Ximeng followed Zhu Yuanzhang closely and went straight to the county government office.
The county magistrate of Dingyuan is named Wang Kai, who is considered to be a fellow villager of Lao Zhu. He followed Lao Zhu when he left Haozhou, and was later assigned to Dingyuan as the county magistrate. It has been two or three years now.
Zhu Yuanzhang still took good care of his hometown people, and even planned to transfer Wang Kai to Yingtian to serve as the prefect of Yingtian.
But it happened that at this moment, something like this happened.
Lao Zhu and Zhang Ximeng entered the county government office. Wang Kai panicked and came over to salute.
"I'm humble and pay my respects to my superior!"
Zhu Yuanzhang just glanced at him, turned his head to the side, and said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, ask him!"
Zhang Ximeng nodded and said to Wang Kai: "Did you know that Hu Sanshe sells alcohol?"
Wang Kai was stunned. How did his superiors know about this matter? However, he had a strong psychological quality. After hesitation, he immediately made up his mind. Although Zhu Yuanzhang was not allowed to sell alcohol, it seemed that this was not a heinous crime, so he admitted: "
Humble job, humble job knows!"
"Since you know, why don't you care?"
"I don't dare to care about this!"
"Why don't you care?"
"Because his father is Hu Dahai!"
Zhang Ximeng laughed and said, "So what about Hu Dahai? There are ten or twenty generals like him in the army. Is it possible that they can be allowed to corrupt the law?"
Wang Kai was silent for a moment, then took a peek at Zhu Yuanzhang, and found that Lao Zhu was still sullen and silent. He suddenly turned his head, threw Zhang Ximeng away, and kowtowed hard at Zhu Yuanzhang, his head making a thumping sound!
"Come on, Hu Dahai is not an ordinary general. He is attacking Shaoxing. It is related to the battle. If the morale of the army is shaken and leads to a disastrous defeat, I will die and I will die! For the great cause of Zhu Jiajun, I can't do it at this time no matter what."
, it has ruined a big thing! The superior, the humble one boldly suggested that no matter what Hu Sanshe did, he must wait until his father returns from Shaoxing before he can deal with it. The big thing is the most important thing!"'
Wang Kai burst into tears and banged his head on the ground, continuing to express his feelings.
"The higher one, the lower position owes the favor of the higher one, and becomes a county magistrate. The lower position is like a dog for the upper one, who has to take care of the family for the upper one!"
"You fart!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, "The overall situation? What is the overall situation? Our laws are the overall situation! Grain is the overall situation! No one is allowed to use grain to make wine, this is the overall situation!"
Lao Zhu leaned over, stared at Wang Kai, and sneered: "Listen to us! Let Hu Dahai rebel! Our laws are not child's play!"
As soon as the words came out, the sky was struck by lightning!
Wang Kai turned pale with fright and almost collapsed.
He couldn't believe his ears, how could this happen?
Just because of something like drinking, forcing a general to rebel?
Which one is more serious?
However, Zhang Ximeng raised the corners of his mouth and slightly extended his thumb. Such a powerful Zhu Yuanzhang actually said such cruel words that he would rather Hu Dahai rebelled than let the law become a child's play.
This is the real ruthless person!
Liu Futong dared to say that he and Lao Zhu were both heroes of the world, but in comparison, Liu Futong was so far behind that he even resorted to poisoning and killing, which was really not good enough.
Any team with fighting ability has rules far better than individuals.
Zhu Yuanzhang was able to take the risk of a general's rebellion and resolutely deal with his subordinates who broke the rules. What he maintained was the rules of the Zhu Jiajun and the team's combat effectiveness.
But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is not surprising that a second-grade civil servant casually hacked to death a first-grade military general, but did not immediately receive the punishment he deserved. The national code was corrupted and the rules were no longer there. Naturally, people's hearts were divided and out of control. They were completely defeated and their bones were as white as mountains.
.
Lao Zhu's attitude far exceeded Wang Kai's expectations. He was dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer. He was completely stunned and could only kneel on the ground and tremble.
At this time, Zhang Ximeng secretly said that he was naturally in awe of Lao Zhu's attitude. Yes, laws and regulations must come first.
But there is another layer inside, which Lao Zhu ignored.
Zhang Ximeng whispered: "Master, what we drank in the restaurant was not just Hu Sanshe's wine? It seems that Wang Zhixian's subordinates are not selling private wine alone. How much is involved, we still need to find out!"
Zhang Ximeng laughed and said: "It's impossible for those people's father to be named Hu Dahai, right?"
Wang Kai almost fainted just now, but after hearing Zhang Ximeng's words, he was frightened to death...
