Chapter 127: The Western Tour
Zhu Youxiao didn't expect a Jinshan scam to finally form such a result, and even those who were originally against the switch now turned their guns in favor of the switch. In this scam, everyone has lost a lot, and everyone wants to get the losses back, and now there is a chance to recover the losses, if anyone still stops it, it is really a water in the head, which will attract everyone's despise and rejection.
At this time, Dai Chunlin also entered Beijing. Although he didn't know why the emperor summoned him? But after he received the emperor's message to summon him, he immediately set off.
"Did Feng Qiuhuang hear about it?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
"On the way to Beijing, the grass people heard a little." Dai Chunlin said respectfully.
"Phoenix is my industry, but I have the heart to expand the category of Phoenix Phoenix. I heard that your incense powder is a must in Yangzhou, and I intend to cooperate with you to jointly develop incense powder. Of course, if you don't want to, I will not force it. Zhu Youxiao said softly.
"This ......" Dai Chunlin didn't know how to answer for a while, in this era of the world, if Zhu Youxiao forced him to hand over the formula, he would definitely not be able to refuse.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, I forgive you for your innocence!" Zhu Youxiao said softly.
"I wonder how Your Majesty wants to cooperate?" Dai Chunlin summoned up the courage to ask.
"First, you are responsible for the production and sales of the incense powder, and the distribution of the incense powder is still yours, and the price at which the incense powder is sold to me is also determined by you, but the price at which it is sold is determined by me; Second, the counter model, I allow you to rent a place in Fengqiuhuang to sell your Dai Chunlin's incense powder, and charge according to the size of the lease; The third is also the counter model, all of your Dai Chunlin's incense powder is branded with the trademark of Fengqiuhuang, and I want you to make half of the profit. Zhu Youxiao directly gave three models.
At this time, Dai Chunlin's incense powder was not yet a tribute to the imperial court, the price was still relatively simple, and the concept of "thousands of gold and five spices" had not yet been proposed, and the so-called "beauty is fragrant, and the poor man's half moon food" has not yet appeared.
"Grass elected first." Dai Chunlin replied respectfully.
Dai Chunlin's choice did surprise Zhu Youxiao, if it were placed in the next generation, 100% of people would choose the latter two. However, in this period, the latter two cooperation models are too advanced and will be unacceptable for a while. According to Dai Chunlin's understanding, the incense powder is sold to anyone, and the conditions given by Zhu Youxiao are very good, the factory price is set by Dai Chunlin himself, and Dai Chunlin did not expect that the incense powder he developed would be famous all over the country in the future.
"Are you sure?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
"Grass people are sure." Dai Chunlin nodded and said.
"Now that you're sure, we'll sign the contract." Zhu Youxiao said.
"No." Dai Chunlin said happily. Hearing that Zhu Youxiao took the initiative to sign a contract with him, he was really happy, which made him feel more secure.
"In a month's time, I will supply the incense powder you made in Fengqiuhuang, so you must hurry." Zhu Youxiao emphasized.
"The grass people understand." Dai Chunlin bowed and said.
"In addition, I want you to help the queen make a duck egg powder, which is a gift I am going to give to the queen on the occasion of Qixi Festival." Zhu Youxiao said. According to the itinerary, Zhu Youxiao will definitely not be able to spend the Qixi Festival in Beijing, but Zhu Youxiao still wants to give the gift.
"No." Dai Chunlin said.
"Of course, if you have the time, it's best to help me make seventy-nine." Zhu Youxiao felt that if it was possible, it was best not to favor one over the other, he said cheekily.
"The minister must do his best." Dai Chunlin said. Although he has also made duck egg powder, he thinks it shouldn't be a problem.
……
Regarding Dai Chunlin's matter, Zhu Youxiao informed Xiaoxiao, and Xiaoxiao handed over the rest. After the introduction of the silver phoenix, the phoenix did not alleviate the sales of the golden phoenix, and the golden phoenix was still in short supply. As long as you have a little money, you can hope to have a phoenix with a golden thread. Xiaoxiao's original plan to make a limited edition phoenix was postponed indefinitely.
And Zhu Youxiao is intensively planning the matter of the western tour, even if the civil and military officials oppose it, Zhu Youxiao is still bent on going his own way.
On the eighth day of the first month of May, Zhu Youxiao officially went on tour. This time, Zhu Youxiao did not bring many civil and military officials, mainly because Zhu Youxiao did not want to bring them, and not all of these civil and military officials wanted to go to a dangerous place like Jiubian.
Xu Guangqi and Huang Zunsu were exceptions, and they were designated by Zhu Youxiao to go with them. Zhu Youxiao agreed last year to let Zhao Nanxing return to his hometown this year, and Xu Guangqi replaced Zhao Nanxing.
Xu Guangqi was originally strongly opposed to Zhu Youxiao's western tour, and he was not even willing to accompany the western tour. Zhu Youxiao told him that this tour of the west is not only to inspect the nine sides, but also to promote new crops, which should not always be planted only in the experimental fields of Huangzhuang, but should benefit the people of the world. Xu Guangqi then agreed to follow Zhu Youxiao on his western tour.
Huang Zunsu went to take over as governor of Shaanxi. Yang Lian is an upright person, when he patrolled Shaanxi, he tried to investigate corruption, and now he has obtained a lot of evidence, at this time Zhu Youxiao is ready to remove the governor of Shaanxi.
And Zhu Youxiao was ready to let Yang Lian serve as the imperial history of the left capital. The current Zuodu Yushi Sun Wei is seriously ill, and Han Yi strongly advocated Gao Panlong to serve in this position, but was vetoed by Zhu Youxiao, Zhu Youxiao only agreed to let Yang Lian take the post, Yang Lian is also a member of the Donglin Party, but Han Yi did not insist.
On this day, Yan Siqi arrived at Shuri Castle with more than 300 warships and more than 20,000 troops. This time, Yan Siqi almost gathered all the pirates along the southeast coast. In this group of people, except for Yan Siqi, who has a sense of belonging to Daming, the rest of the pirates have a weak sense of belonging to Daming, which is why Zhu Youxiao strongly supports Yan Siqi. And only Yan Siqi has such an appeal to gather all the pirates in this area.
King Shangfeng was very happy with Zhu Youxiao's arrangement. In 1609, the Satsuma clan sent 3,000 troops to capture the Ryukyu Kingdom, and in the seven days of the catastrophe, they also captured the Ryukyu King Shoning and his royal family, and from then on the Ryukyu Kingdom became a subsidiary of Toei.
Although it was not the official dispatch of troops by the Ming Dynasty this time, Yan Siqi was ordered by Zhu Youxiao, and King Shangfeng felt that the strength of the army brought by Yan Siqi should be completely able to suppress the Satsuma Domain.
"I wonder when General Yan is going to send troops to the Satsuma Domain?" King Shang Feng asked.
"Compared with the Dongying shogunate, the disparity in power between our army and the Dongying shogunate is too great, and only the sailors can compete with it, so I decided to send troops in three days, quickly seize Fangjin, and then use the sailors to blockade the entire sea area." Yan Siqi said.
"I wish the general success!" King Shang Feng said happily. He welcomes anyone who can help him get rid of his shame.
