Chapter 29 I'm Not Interested in Silver

"Couple package," Wang Huai stared at the angry Zhu Yuanzhang and said with a smile, "I want both ways."

The old secretary Tiantuan was really puzzled that Lao Zhu got angry whenever he disagreed with this young man.

But the bottom line is getting lower every time, and I can't bear it anymore. I always adjust and endure it again.

This time even the bottom line of Ming Dynasty has been penetrated. There is no room for adjustment, right?

The little doctor deserves to die!

After Lao Zhu's long face changed color several times, he was still angry and said solemnly and lowly:

"As long as the sea remains, will you still be determined to go out? There is one thing about the Maritime Silk Road. Have you figured it out?"

Wang Huai was curious:

"I only know that if you connect to the Silk Road, you can earn 10 times the money; and if you connect to the Maritime Silk Road, you can earn 1,000 times the gold coins, because there are ships; and you don't have to worry about the pain of riding a camel. Is there anything higher?

of?"

After hearing this, even Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lao Zhu snorted coldly:

"Now that the sea route is open, Japanese pirates will not only intercept caravans, but also harm the people along the coast along the sea route."

Wang Huai nodded to express his understanding:

"Mr. Zhu... uh... I have a solution for the matter that Your Majesty is worried about."

"any solution?"

Wang Huai inspected the hall and saw everyone showing doubts, and said with a bright smile:

"I said that your Majesty can take the opportunity to form an invincible navy to escort the caravans and garrison the coastal defense line.

And I have recruited a group of talents to build a treasure ship that can sail tens of thousands of miles across the ocean. I even have a method for training troops."

Everyone looked suspicious, and Zhu Yuanzhang said doubtfully:

"Military training method? Where did you learn it?"

Wang Huai smiled calmly:

"Does Your Majesty believe me when I say I created it myself?"

The corner of Lao Zhu's mouth twitched slightly:

"As far as we know, you have never served in the military, and you have never even entered a camp. How can you come up with any method?"

Wang Huai showed a meaningful smile:

"It's said to be original, how can you enter the military camp?"

Hearing what he said, Lao Zhu felt even more confused.

This is sheer nonsense!

He was stunned.

All day long, you only spend time visiting the brothels and collecting people's wealth, and you still have time to think about how to march and fight?

Still training? What a big joke!

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't believe Wang Huai's words at all.

A minister expressed Lao Zhu’s doubts:

"Just reading "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" is just talk on paper!"

No more hiding, I’m showing off my cards!

Wang Huai smiled and said:

"Your Majesty knows what happened at Qinhuai River that night. At least six masters besieged them, and I killed half of them, and..."

Thinking of his experience with Su Yuru that night, Wang Huai paused and smiled happily.

Zhu Yunsheng couldn't help but said:

"Young, it's better to be young. I know you are like a dragon in the water. You took a girl who can't swim and hid for half a night. It's more enjoyable to get on the boat, right?"

Wang Huai said in a mean tone:

"This is also my own method. Just looking at underwater skills, who can beat it?

During this time, I only trained a captain named Ma Sanbao, and he can already lead a sailor."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the discussion he heard from passers-by on the boat, talking about Wang Huai's boat driver "three guarantees", and insisted:

"Call Ma Sanbao over some other time. We'll have to see what he's capable of. Anyway, the time is not yet ripe for this."

Wang Huai said mysteriously:

"What if I could recruit a Pirate King...er...Aquaman army from the sea?"

"The Dragon King of the Four Seas and the Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals," Zhu Biao interjected, "that's just a legend after all."

Wang Huai showed a confident smile:

"The ones who dominate the land are called Xuanjia cavalry. This group can be called the Mongolian cavalry on the sea. As long as they go to sea, I can recruit them and they will become a nightmare for Japanese pirates."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked thoughtful and shook his head slightly:

"Those are all illusory things."

Wang Huaiwei thought for a moment and decided to come up with another trump card:

"Your Majesty loves the people like his own son and has improved agriculture to an unprecedented level. Since he cares about the people so much, what if there are seeds overseas - grain seeds? Is it worth a trip overseas?"

"What kind of grain should I look at? Is it higher yielding than rice and wheat?"

Wang Huai laughed dumbly, Feng Qingyun said calmly:

“The grain yield per mu can exceed one thousand kilograms, or even three thousand kilograms.”

At this time, everyone from Zhu Yuanzhang on down was severely shocked.

"The yield per mu is one thousand catties, three thousand catties? What kind of grain is so productive? It can beat rice and wheat eight hundred miles away!"

"Don't fool us!" Lao Zhu stared at Wang Huai in disbelief.

Facing the profound gaze, Wang Huai said seriously:

"Which of the things I said were not true? Which of the bragging...er...promises I made have not been fulfilled?"

Zhu Yuanzhang confirmed again:

"Including this time?"

Wang Huai nodded and affirmed:

"Of course it's true. I've seen and eaten that kind of food."

This time.

Zhu Yuanzhang's deep curiosity was raised high, and he hurriedly said:

"What does the grain look like?"

Wang Huai touched his smooth chin and said with a recalling look:

"The corn that yields thousands of kilograms per acre is called corn. The grains on a cob are packed full. When cooked, it becomes golden and shiny, just like the sweet and yellow jade your Majesty gave me. It is fragrant and sweet when you bite it."

"Where's the three thousand catties?"

Wang Huai shook his fist and said:

"The kind called potatoes, or potatoes, are as big as my sandbag fist and grow like pebbles.

"Although it looks ordinary, it can produce three thousand pounds per acre.

Think about it, if such seeds were brought back to the Ming Dynasty, how many people would be benefited, and the people of the Ming Dynasty would have no worries about food and clothing from now on."

No one spoke in the audience.

Including Zhu Yuanzhang, he was still in shock.

Wang Huai took another dose of strong medicine and said:

"Shen Wansan's cornucopia is made of wind-milled copper. It comes from overseas. His son-in-law Gu Xuewen is under my banner now. When the time comes, I will bring him back thirty thousand kilograms, as well as boxes of silver and lumps of gold.

.....”

Come back to your senses.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but think, this guy is really capable, he knows everything about the cornucopia.

It turned out that he had planned to win over Gu Xuewen for a long time. This guy's foresight is as good as mine!

It doesn't matter whether you have money or not. If you can really bring things called corn and potatoes back to the Ming Dynasty as he said, compared to him opening the Qinhuai Tower and making money every day, it will be a contribution to the present and a benefit to the future!

Zhu Yuanzhang finally spoke:

"I'm not interested in silver."

Wang Huai was stunned, why do these words sound so familiar?

Lao Zhu continued:

"But the grain called corn and potatoes must be brought back to the Ming Dynasty! Wind-milled copper? It's yours if you bring it back!"

After saying this, Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand.

Wang Huai had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he took the opportunity to give him a slap in the face.

"Snapped!"

Everyone present was stunned. Is this a high-five?

Not only did the emperor promise, but he also gave him a high-five?

Lao Zhu couldn't help but laugh:

"You have sharp eyes and quick hands. I just made a fist, not a high-five with you."

Wang Huai squeezed his hand and prepared to hit the snake with the stick...
