Chapter 40 Daming Gold Bricks
Zhu Shun wanted to use this Gyeonggi Massacre to solve the hidden danger of Huang Yonggui with his foresight and foresight, and completely solve it.
When night came, this family was just an ordinary ordinary people's house, and they didn't have the spare money to go to the lamp market, except for the eldest son who was reading with candles, everyone else slept.
Zhu Shun pushed open the wooden door of the firewood house, walked out of the back door of the courtyard with Si Dike, and came to the bustling chessboard street.
The streets are full of people coming and going, and under the black tile eaves, lanterns are hung, and the illuminated chessboard street is particularly noisy and lively.
There are many Westerners living in the capital, and Zhu Shun, who is dressed as a Western gentleman, is only conspicuous in the crowd, but not dazzling.
Zhu Shun didn't walk for a long time, and he came to the door of a mansion with red walls and green tiles, crossed the two town mansions, and pulled the ringer on the door.
The doorman of the Huang Mansion was an elderly man, and the old man came over with a lantern: "Who is this Western gentleman looking for?" ”
Zhu Shun deliberately used the tone of a Westerner to say the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty: "I'm looking for Huang." ”
The old man obviously received Westerners and knew their habit of speaking: "There are several Mr. Huang, I don't know which Mr. Huang is looking for." ”
At this moment, Huang Yonggui walked out of the mansion with a burden and scolding, and there were several family members with sticks behind him: "You wait for the master." ”
"Master, if I make a comeback one day, I will definitely buy this mansion and drive you all out and starve to death."
Seeing that Huang Yonggui seemed to have been kicked out, Zhu Shun walked over and gave Huang Yonggui a big hug, and said enthusiastically: "Huang, I've been waiting for you here for a long time." ”
It's a normal person who is suddenly hugged by someone, and he will definitely be startled, Huang Yonggui is obviously a normal person, and pushed Zhu Shun away hard: "Who are you, you." ”
Zhu Shun showed a sad face: "Huang, you don't remember me, last time you said that you wanted to buy a new Western spinning machine from me, why did you forget it so quickly." ”
After saying this, Zhu Shun turned around and left.
Huang Yonggui didn't hear anything else, but he heard the words of the new spinning machine clearly, and hurriedly chased after him: "Remember, remember, why don't you remember." ”
"It's just that it's been too long, and I don't remember it clearly, what kind of new spinning machine can spin a few spindles at a time?"
Zhu Shun knew that Huang Yonggui was testing himself, pretending to be very enthusiastic, and even said with a gesture: "One hundred, the spinning machine I brought this time can spin a hundred spindles at a time." ”
Huang Yonggui was stunned when he heard a hundred spindles, swallowed his saliva, and asked with difficulty: "Many... How much? ”
Zhu Shun took Huang Yonggui's arm and walked out of the city: "The spinning machine has been brought, Huang, let's go and see what it looks like first." ”
The gates are not allowed to be opened at night, but as long as you have money in your hand, it is fine.
When Zhu Shun pulled Huang Yonggui to the city gate, the squires in sedan chairs kept coming in from the city gate, and some bureaucrats who had temporary affairs hurriedly left the capital in a carriage.
Zhu Shun pushed Huang Yonggui to the front, and Huang Yonggui, who was thinking about a hundred spindles, was distracted, and handed over the money to the general flag guarding the door.
When he reacted, he was distressed.
Zhu Shun's third uncle, Zhu Zhongli, dismantled the spinning machine as early as daytime, borrowed a cow to pull the plank, and pulled the spinning machine to the canal near the city gate.
In order not to expose the Zhu spinning factory, Zhu Shun took Huang Yonggui to the side of the canal, anyway, it was full of all kinds of merchant ships and cargo ships, and Huang Yonggui didn't know if the merchant ships were Zhu Shun's.
Zhu Shun casually pointed to a merchant ship with thousands of materials, pulled Huang Yonggui to the straw mat covered with the spinning machine, handed the third uncle a look, and pulled the straw mat open.
After a tiring day, the servants on the merchant ship had already gone back to rest with a sore back, and the owner of the ship also took all the stewards to the capital to live happily.
The canal was quiet, only the sound of the river lapping on the bank, and suddenly there was another exclamation.
Huang Yonggui had never seen such a precision spinning machine, but when he saw the frame of the spinning machine, he was instantly fascinated by the appearance of the spinning machine.
When he saw the hundred vertical spindles placed on the fixed back beam, he couldn't hold back and threw himself over with an exclamation.
Huang Yonggui obsessively stroked the water-powered spinning machine, and muttered in his mouth: "Ingenious, ingenious, there is such an ingenious thing in the world." ”
"Even if I, Huang Yonggui, die here today, I will die without regrets."
Speaking of the word death, Huang Yonggui was shocked, glanced at the silent surroundings, and remembered that he had also done a lot of things to sink people to the Yongding River, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
Turning around and seeing the Westerner standing proudly not far away, Huang Yonggui breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly scolded himself for being stupid, just come with someone, if it is an enemy, wouldn't he be finished.
If he didn't finish thinking about this, Huang Yonggui was hooked away by the strong fir texture of the spinning machine, and he thought that it would be possible to go to the temple yesterday to burn incense to the Buddha and manifest his spirit.
Now I can only explain it like this, otherwise this Westerner would not have recognized the wrong person, and he would not have been so lucky to see a spinning machine with a hundred spindles.
Huang Yonggui, who had been carried away by the water-powered spinning machine, did not have the slightest doubt about Zhu Shun's identity, but just hoped that the Buddha would bless him and not let the other party discover his identity.
Huang Yonggui tried to calm himself down, but the temptation of this hundred-spindle spinning machine was too great, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Please... May I ask the Western master, this... How much is a rack of this spinning machine. ”
Zhu Shun walked over and took a closer look at Huang Yonggui, and suddenly said in shock: "You are not Huang!" ”
When Huang Yonggui heard this, his frightened heart was about to jump out.
With just a few thousand of these spinning machines, it will be possible to monopolize the entire spinning industry in Gyeonggi.
At that time, Huang Yonggui will be the spinning king of Gyeonggi, let alone a Huang Yongfa, even the two big Jin merchants together will not have his strength.
Huang Yonggui, who had fallen into some kind of fantasy, smiled viciously: "Huang Yongfa, you wait for me, the insult I received today must be repaid a hundred times." ”
Huang Yonggui knew that this spinning machine was the real hope for his rise, so he hurriedly grabbed Zhu Shun with a smile: "Master Western, don't be in a hurry to leave first." ”
"Anyway, it's all about selling things, and it's not selling to anyone, so let's do it, I'll add another percent to the original price, how do you see it, Western master."
Hearing the addition of another percent, Zhu Shun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he reluctantly agreed: "Huang, for the sake of what you like so much, I will sell it to you." ”
"It's just that I don't want silver, I want the gold bricks of the Ming Dynasty."
