"Ultra-thin? What is ultra-thin?"
Lao Zhu turned his head and looked directly at Chang Er. Although he had abdicated now, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, but his suppressed momentum did not diminish at all.
Chang Er's forehead was instantly covered with a layer of fine sweat, he glanced at Zhu Xiongying secretly, and then explained to Lao Zhu.
As Zhu Yuanzhang listened, his eyes became more and more weird. At the end of the sentence, it was obvious that even his outlook on life had been impacted at such an old age.
Although it was sold in the name of a place, everyone in today's world doesn't know that Chang Mansion is the private treasury of today's emperor. Chang Er's behavior is basically no different from that of an official business.
"You pighead! How can this thing be government-run?! What does official-run mean? It is to encourage people to buy these things.
The people you made trouble with this thing don’t even have babies anymore, how can we, the Ming Dynasty, still be considered shit? ! "
Zhu Yuanzhang put his hand on Chang Er's head and cursed him. His spittle flew all over the sky. He helped Chang Er wash his face after getting up early to go out. He didn't have time to wash his face.
Chang Er lowered his head. He was really his fault for this matter. Originally, the Holy Spirit just said it casually, so Chang Er had to sneak it out.
It’s okay to just take some time out and play with it yourself, but you still need to mass-produce it.
In ancient feudal dynasties, the most important resource was population, not to mention a country with fertile agricultural land like the Central Plains.
People can pay taxes, produce, enlist in the army, work... In short, all functions and normal operations of the central court depend on population.
As for Chang Er's behavior, in Lao Zhu's opinion, to put it mildly, isn't it just a matter of extermination?
"Grandpa, it was my grandson who came up with this idea."
Zhu Xiongying was on the side. Seeing that Chang Er was scolded really badly, he took the initiative to step forward and take the blame.
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said with a golden sword,
"Grandson, I think Chang Er was the one who instigated it himself!"
Chang Er admits his mistake,
"Your Majesty, I was wrong. The Holy One just mentioned it and clearly told me not to mass-produce it. I thought it was very promising, so I did it secretly..."
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his brows when he heard this, and hit Chang Er with his palm. Chang Er let out an ouch and covered his shoulder in pain.
Lao Zhu's hand was so strong that he couldn't hold back his emotions and slapped Chang Er.
However, Lao Zhu always beat his own family. To a certain extent, the Chang family was recognized by Lao Zhu as half of his own family.
"Our eldest grandson told you not to do it, why do you still do it?!
Do you think you are smarter than our eldest grandson? !
You stupid thing! Sell all these things quickly!
Just pay some money and admit it! This thing cannot be sold! "
Lao Zhu was also hard-spoken and soft-hearted towards Chang Er. He beat Chang Er from the beginning to the end. Even if it was considered as punishment, he just told him to get rid of all the things and would not pursue the case any further.
Chang Er's eyes showed hesitation. Seeing that he was still greedy for this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang said in a serious tone,
"Do you think we are joking with you?!"
Chang Er plucked up the courage and said,
"Your Majesty, in fact, this product has already been ordered in large quantities."
"Ah?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and forgot to investigate Chang Er for a moment. In Lao Zhu's mind, this thing can only be retailed, but can it be wholesaled on a large scale?
Lao Zhu's head was spinning fast, and when he smelled the smell of money, his tone softened a lot, "Who decided? The brothel?"
Seeing Master Hongwu's change of attitude, Chang Er's tone became much firmer.
"It's not a brothel, Your Majesty, it's the Delhi Sultanate. This thing can be sold abroad.
Not only the Delhi Sultanate, the Italian diplomat named Marco Polo Jr. was also very interested in this product.
I thought that these foreign envoys were in the capital and wanted to see if I could sell more, so I came to the Holy One to report the matter. "
Lao Zhu was completely confused. He could understand every word Chang Er said, but Lao Zhu couldn't understand even the words.
Shopping abroad? All the commodities that can be sold abroad are bulk commodities. How can this product, whose name makes one’s mouth feel dirty, be ordered in large quantities from abroad? !
Lao Zhu's abdication gave rise to a feeling,
It’s not that we don’t understand, it’s just that times are changing too fast!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his eldest grandson in astonishment and found that his eldest grandson's eyes were full of shock. However, compared to his own eyes, his eldest grandson's eyes had a little more understanding.
Zhu Xiongying held his forehead and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't expect to find such a big money tree by accident.
Just...I didn't expect...
This is ancient times!
Why are you having so much fun? !
"Wait, wait, wait... wait!" Zhu Yuanzhang held Chang Er backhand and asked doubtfully, "Explain this to us, why do they want to buy this thing?!"
Lao Zhu's attitude changed drastically. He was actually anxious.
If this thing can be sold in large quantities abroad, then there will be no problem. Anyway, it will not harm our own people.
Moreover, the Chang Mansion is the inner treasury of the eldest grandson, and all the money earned is the eldest grandson’s private money.
The eldest grandson has so much private money, why don't you give us some of it?
Lao Zhu was waiting for the next order, and a few gold coins flowed out from the fingers of his eldest grandson.
Chang Erfu came over, Lao Zhu frowned and shouted,
"Why are you so close to us? If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Chang Er muttered,
"Your Majesty, this matter is really not suitable for your Majesty to hear."
Zhu Xiongying secretly thought after hearing this,
Don't call me when you're having a party, right?
Lao Zhu seemed to understand something and signaled Chang Er to whisper. Chang Er leaned over and muttered for a long time. These two people were also obsessed with money and completely forgot that their behavior was unnecessary.
With Zhu Xiongying's excellent hearing, Zhu Xiongying could hear clearly even if Chang Er lowered his voice.
As Lao Zhu listened, his eyes became wider and wider.
What Chang Er said shocked Lao Zhu for a hundred years.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned red from the base of his ears. Even though Lao Zhu had a harem, he was still a traditionalist. Farming and breeding were done one by one. This was not a problem in the eyes of the traditional Lao Zhu.
Give birth!
But when he learned from Chang Er that foreign nobles were so open-minded, Lao Zhu was completely stupid.
Lao Zhu has only seen these things in the records of those stupid kings in history books.
What wine ponds and meat forests, what music and music every night...
Let alone playing around, Lao Zhu doesn’t even dare to think about it!
Chang Er had already retreated to the side, but Zhu Yuanzhang was still stunned in place. After a while, he came back to his senses and asked,
"Are the things you said true? Are they the foreign envoys?"
Lao Zhu couldn't do anything to connect those diplomats who were as docile as little sheep in front of him with the wild partygoers Chang Er said.
"Your Majesty, every word is true!"
Zhu Yuanzhang wiped his face and looked helplessly at his eldest grandson.
"Grandson, look at this..."
Zhu Xiongying said in a deep voice,
"Sell! Not only sell! It also has to sell well!"
