It is not uncommon to have pets in the palace, Zhu Cijiong has seen a lot of cats in the harem, and when it comes to the season of estrus, the entire harem is full of ghosts crying and howling wolves, which is annoying.

For this reason, he also asked the old eunuch in the palace, which probably means, what is going on, is this my harem or a zoo, how do you raise so many cats?

As a result, he was stunned by the answers.

It turned out that raising cats in the palace turned out to be Emperor Taizu's intention, and the old eunuch was afraid that he would not believe it, so he specially dug out the relevant records in the "Taizu Record".

Sure enough, it recorded that Emperor Taizu asked people to raise cats in the palace, and Taizu also said: "The descendants grew up in the deep palace, and I am afraid that they will not know humanity and give birth to heirs by mistake." So that the cat's peony chases each other, and its vitality is aroused. “

This means that Emperor Taizu was afraid that future generations would live in the deep palace for a long time, and did not understand the process and importance of inheritance, so he especially raised some cats for them to observe.

What made Zhu Cijiong even more dumbfounded was that, according to the old eunuch, his father Zhu Youxiao especially likes to raise cats, and even likes to seal cats, many cats in the harem are officials of his father's title, there are special eunuchs and palace maids to serve, and there are also Yu Lu, ordinary eunuchs and palace maids have to be honored as "a certain master" when they see it!

Nima, there are many cats in the harem who are still his father's "favored ministers" for a long time, and he can't be provoked, and since then, Zhu Cijiong has never cared about keeping pets in the palace.

However, why did his eldest son suddenly raise a dog again, isn't it good to have a cat?

Thinking of the huge size of the husky as an adult, Zhu Cijiong always felt a little unsteady in his heart, this husky will be an adult in three or five years at most, and when the time comes, is it safe for a big child with a half-human height husky?

He couldn't help asking: "Mingyue, why did you suddenly think of letting Yu'er raise a dog, isn't it good to have a cat?" “

Qin Mingyue looked at her son lovingly, but a meaningful sentence burst out of her mouth: "The cat is too docile, and the dog is a little wolf." “

Well, an emperor really can't be docile like a cat, like his father is a good example, let Mrs. Fengsheng be a powerful blessing in the palace, and indulge Wei Zhongxian to do nonsense outside the palace, in history, he was not a descendant of the generation, and the entire Ming Dynasty was also greatly injured by Wei Zhongxian's tossed vitality, and finally left a mess to his younger brother Zhu Youzhen, as a result, his younger brother was killed!

If you have a dog, you can raise a dog, Zhu Cijiong actually doesn't hate pets, and even likes it a little bit, and he is even more curious about the legendary family demolition dog.

Seeing that his son was having fun, he couldn't help but walk over, squatted in front of his son, and asked with interest, "What's its name?" “

Zhu Hetou is also about a year and a half years old, and he can already understand some simple words, someone may have asked him this question, and when he heard this, he immediately replied in a milky voice: "Foodie." “

As soon as the husky who was called a foodie heard Zhu Hetou call his name, he immediately raised his head, glanced at his little master, and stared at Zhu Cijiong vigilantly and barked a few times, then lowered his head, and ate the jerky in two bites, as if he was afraid that Zhu Cijiong would rob it!

Seeing this, Queen Qin Mingyue raised her hand to summon the palace maid with the wooden plate, pinched a piece of jerky, and said to Zhu Cijiong: "Your Majesty, this foodie is smart, if you feed it something, it will immediately wag its tail at you." “

Before she could finish her words, the foodie husky had already come to her, wagging his tail vigorously and trying to curry favor.

Seeing this, Zhu Cijiong took the jerky and said tentatively: "Foodie, come here." “

The foodie husky turned his head and ran towards him, his tail wagging even happier.

Zhu Cijiong lowered the jerky a little, and it immediately stood up, took a bite, and devoured it.

This thing is really smart, coupled with that cute appearance, the more Zhu Cijiong looks at it, the more he likes it, he accompanies his son, holds the jerky, and feeds it one by one.

This husky may be when he was growing his body, he ate an amazing amount of food, and after eating nearly a pound of jerky, his little belly was bulging, and he was still asking for it vigorously, and he really lived up to the name of a foodie.

However, Queen Qin Mingyue didn't let it be fed, there is no amount of this product herself, how much you feed it and how much it eats, it will not be good if it dies!

Seeing that no one was feeding it, the foodie didn't start to be excited, and slowly his eyelids began to fight, and Zhu Hetou seemed to be infected by it, and he also fell asleep.

After a while, one person and one dog fell asleep one after another, Zhu Cijiong and Queen Qin Mingyue were tired of crooked for a while, and rushed to the harem non-stop, first greeted the queen mother of the two palaces, and then spoiled their children one by one, and the day passed like this.

Although the feeling of teasing children is full of happiness, state affairs cannot be ignored.

Time was running out, and seeing that the ice and snow in Siberia were about to melt, he had to devote his main energy to the big war against Tsarist Russia.

The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass first, the next morning after the dynasty, Zhu Cijiong thought of convening Sun Yuanhua, Cheng Guoxiang, Bi Maokang and other ministers to discuss the transfer of grain and grass on the west and north lines, thinking of yesterday's foodie, he thought of the development of the Siberian Plateau, such a large piece of land down, it can't be left empty, you have to find some economic growth point, and slowly develop it, otherwise, you have to put money into it every year.

Thinking of this, Zhu Cijiong simply summoned the relevant persons in charge of the royal family to discuss together, how to develop Siberia, after all, at this time, grabbing land is all for the sake of interests, and it is better not to grab it if it does not create profits by laying down a huge territory.

The emperor beckoned, and the people below naturally came quickly, and in less than half an hour, everyone arrived.

There seem to be a lot of things, but in fact, there are not many people in charge, and the relevant officials of the imperial court are also Bi Maokang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Cheng Guoxiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and Sun Yuanhua, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Zhu Cijiong only recruited three bigwigs in terms of the royal firm, namely Qin Weiming, who is in charge of supervision, Luo Yang, who is in charge of the Royal Nikxing Bank of Daming, and Xu Erjue, who is in charge of the Xinglong firm of Daming.

There were only six people in total, and there was no need to go to the special large conference room, so Zhu Cijiong directly recruited them to the private study to show his cordiality.

These people are all close to Zhu Cijiong, and everyone does not have the restraint of ordinary ministers when they sit down, and Zhu Cijiong also deliberately opened in a more cordial way: "Wei Ming, the snowy dog you gave to Wei'er is very good, how much did you buy it?" “

When Qin Weiming heard this, his face turned red, and he said hesitantly: "This, back to the emperor, this was given to me by Erjue, and I don't know how much it is!" “

When Zhu Cijiong heard this, he couldn't help but look at Xu Erjue in surprise, this kid has made progress, and his kung fu is getting higher and higher.

Xu Erjue saw the emperor looking over, and hurriedly explained: "Back to the emperor, in fact, this snowy dog is not expensive in Siberia, and you can buy a nest for ten taels of silver." “

A litter, that's not five or six, one or two pieces of silver is almost a hundred, this husky is less than two hundred yuan a piece!

Zhu Cijiong asked with interest: "Then how much will it cost to sell after buying it?" “

Speaking of this, Xu Erjue was a little energetic, he said with a little excitement: "Your Majesty, this snowy dog is in demand, at first the villain just thinks they are very well-behaved and cute, and the people of the Ming Dynasty have the habit of raising cats and dogs, I bought dozens of them and tried it, and wanted to open up a new market, at that time the price was only twenty two, as a result, it was soon coaxed to be snatched up, no matter how much came in the back, it was sold out, due to the short supply, the price has been raised, and now it has been adjusted to two hundred and two. There are still people rushing to ask for it! “

In the pet market, Xu Erjue's brain is really ahead!

The Snow Dog Husky alone has a hundredfold profit, it seems that this Siberia still has a promising future, Zhu Cijiong couldn't help asking: "In addition to the Snow Dog, what other valuable things does Siberia have?" “

Speaking of this, Xu Erjue was even more energetic, and he couldn't help but excitedly say: "Your Majesty, there are many valuable things in Siberia, such as animal skins, especially sable skins, as well as wood, as well as rare medicinal materials, as well as all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas, which are simply endless, and it is simply a natural treasure house!" “
