Facing His Royal Highness King Xin, who had a stern face, Niu Er swallowed and spat.

"Yes, yes. It's my quilt. Niu Er replied timidly.

"Haven't you learned to answer your superiors' questions to stand upright and have a loud and clear voice?" Zhu Youzhen's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

"Report to His Royal Highness, this is my quilt." Niu Eryi was excited, instinctively raised his head and stood upright, and shouted loudly.

"Very well, this is what Lonely looks like." Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly to all the teenagers.

"You must always be in this state, this is the style of my palace."

Zhu Youzhen turned his head to stare at Niu Er, and slowed down his voice: "Let's talk about it?" What's the deal with quilts? ”

Faced with the inquiry of His Royal Highness King Xin, Niu Er, who had a military posture at the beginning, replied loudly: "Report to His Royal Highness King Xin, the quilt is the water I deliberately sprinkled because it is ......"

Speaking of this, Niu Er's voice involuntarily became quieter.

"Because of what?" Zhu Youzhen deliberately raised his voice and asked.

Of course Zhu Youzhen knows what Niu Er is for, isn't it just for the convenience of plastic surgery? It's not like I haven't seen it in my previous life.

King Xin's re-inquiry stimulated Niu Er, and he shouted loudly: "Report to King Xin, I sprinkled water for the convenience of plastic surgery." Report complete. ”

After Niu Er finished speaking, the courtyard was silent for 3 seconds, and then burst into laughter. In the laughter, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but laugh.

"Stand upright!" Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly. The teenagers reflexively stood upright.

Seeing the reaction of the teenagers, Zhu Youzhen was very happy, and the foundation of the military had been preliminarily laid.

"Please take a break." Zhu Youzhen issued an order, and there was no childishness on his face. He exclaimed, "Isn't it funny? I don't think so. ”

"Niu Er is out of the ranks." Zhu Youzhen pointed to the position beside him, "Stand here." ”

Looking at Niu Er's posture of running out of the ranks, Zhu Youzhen nodded secretly. In a short period of time, Niu Er has begun to take on the posture of a soldier.

Waiting for Niu Er to stand up in front of the teenagers, Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly: "The quilt is not right to sprinkle water, but Niu Er's serious mood to win, Lone appreciates it very much." Those of us who believe in the palace must have this desire to win, the means to win and the determination to win! ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at the thoughtful teenagers, and shouted loudly: "Niu Er, is it comfortable to cover the wet quilt?" ”

"No, it's uncomfortable." Niu Er was obviously a little embarrassed.

"Be louder. Is it comfortable? Zhu Youzhen yelled at Niu Er with a dissatisfied face.

"It's uncomfortable." Niu Er's face was straight and he roared loudly.

"Good." Zhu Youzhen turned to the teenagers.

"Is Niu Er stupid?" Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly.

The teenagers were stunned.

"He's not stupid. So why would he prefer to cover an uncomfortable wet quilt? Without waiting for the teenagers to answer, Zhu Youzhen followed and answered on his own.

Zhu Youzhen glanced at the teenagers opposite and looked at their enlightened expressions. He yelled loudly word by word: "Cover the wet quilt, that's because Niu Er wants to win." He wants to win, he is determined to win, he wants to be number one among you! This kind of thinking of his is very good, and Lone appreciates this kind of thinking of his. ”

"Niu Er, I promise you a wish. As long as you can get the first place at the end of the month. Lonely will give you a nice name. ”

Seeing the envious teenagers in the queue, Zhu Youzhen added loudly: "You are the same." As long as you can take the first place twice in a row, Lone will also give him a name. ”

Hearing the exciting news of King Xin's name, the teenagers finally couldn't help but discuss.

After waiting for a while, when the teenagers finished chattering, Zhu Youzhen said loudly: "Niu Er's spirit is commendable, but the practice is not advisable. Niu Er, punish you for running 3 laps around the martial arts arena and doing 50 push-ups. In the future, whoever sprinkles water on the quilt will be severely punished. ”

After Zhu Youzhen left, the teenagers' training momentum was completely stimulated by his precepts.

After eating and drinking enough and scientific exercise, the teenagers' bodies grew like blowing, and their muscles slowly took shape.

Under the auspices of Wang Chengen, the acceptance of the Zheng family has come to an end. Zheng Yingtai was very cooperative, and he summoned all the immediate family members of the Zheng family to the capital.

Zhu Youzhen appreciated Zheng Yingtai's acquaintance. He's still irritating about the same thing now, there are too few talents!

The foundation of the Xinwang Mansion is too little, and there is too little talent reserve.

In this era of low literacy rate, it is really troublesome to find talents, not to mention that Zhu Youzhen also holds the title of a vassal king. The vassal king is an aura of isolation, and the literati who have a little longing are isolated.

In the past two years, there are only a few old children who have been willing to come to the door to serve, and there is not even a single Xiucai. This made Zhu Youzhen feel very depressed.

Maybe this is related to the fact that the Xinwang Mansion has not yet been officially opened, but in any case, this result makes Zhu Youzhen feel very helpless.

Zhu Youzhen, who was helpless, could only accept reality. He could only arrange for Chu Tianxing's two brothers, Ma Jiang and Xu Yunlong, to take three literate little eunuchs to follow the Zheng family caravan to the grassland. There is no mission on this trip, just to explore the way.

The most unexpected thing for Zhu Youzhen was that the Zheng family had no wool reserves at all.

There was no wool, which made Zhu Youjian's wool spinning plan have to be postponed again.

The Zheng family hoarded the most grassland commodities, and it turned out to be cattle, live cattle.

In recent years, the bulk goods that the Zheng family exchanged from the grassland were all kinds of cattle, sheep, horses and all kinds of furs.

Of all the goods, horses sell the best, and even bad horses can be sold quickly. The second is all kinds of furs, needless to say the cherished furs; Even ordinary cattle and sheepskin have a good market.

Among the other goods, sheep can only be killed for meat, and wool has no other use than wool felt. Therefore, the livestock with the most on the grassland are the things of the least value to the Zheng family.

Each time it was smuggled, the Zheng family caravan would only exchange a small amount of live sheep for meat along the way. When entering the side wall, the remaining live sheep of the caravan will be given as gifts to the border troops along the way.

Cattle are good livestock. It's just that the cattle in the grassland are too strong to be directly used as farming cattle. In the Central Plains market, the difference between the value of cultivated cattle and beef cattle is more than 10 times.

The huge value gap makes it a great loss for cattle sold from the grasslands for long distances to be sold as beef cattle.

In recent years, the Zheng family has domesticated cattle before selling them. The cycle of the Zheng family's goods sales is mainly backlogged here.

When the Zheng family raised funds this time, the horses and fur were easy to handle, but the cattle were difficult to handle. I can't bear it. So at this time, the Zheng family hoarded the most cattle.

Getting this information, Zhu Youzhen was very curious.

It is said that the cattle of the grassland can only be milked and eaten meat, and cannot be used as farming cattle.

Looking at the Zheng family's business records and seeing the Zheng family's cycle of cattle training, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but shake his head, the cycle was too long. But even this cycle is worth it.

"Well, it's no wonder that grasslands have never been included in the traditional Chinese context. The benefits that grasslands can provide are simply too small. Zhu Youzhen suddenly realized.
