Tang Tianhao heard the news of Tang Ming's return early this morning, he immediately put down everything at hand, called the groom to drive the carriage and hurried, and from a distance, he only saw Tang Ming standing on the bow of the boat, so he waved his hand vigorously and shouted.

There was nothing polite about his own brothers, Tang Ming, who got off the boat, quickly got into the carriage, and after looking at each other with his eldest brother for a while, the two laughed at the same time.

After laughing enough, Tang Tianhao patted Tang Ming's shoulder excitedly, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, I have grown a lot taller and my body has become stronger, but I am a little tanned, but this is like a man." In the past, your little white face looked like a girl, and it didn't look majestic. ”

Tang Ming, who was still happy, heard this, and two drops of cold sweat on his cheeks instantly flowed wildly. I don't know if the eldest brother is praising him or belittling him, these are no longer important, as long as the eldest brother is living a good life, the family is safe and sound better than anything else.

Tinker and two of his attendants loaded their luggage onto the carriage and sat on it. The groom shouted, the whip in his hand was raised high, and then hit the horse's buttocks, spreading its hooves and galloping, the tall horse raised the dust in the sky and hurried to the Zheng Mansion in the city.

On the way back, Tang Tianhao told Tang Ming about the situation of his and the queen's distilled spirits during this time. With the support of the mother of a country behind her, the wine sold very smoothly, although Tang Tianhao only accounted for 10% of the dry shares, but he had made a lot of profits in the past six months.

Now that the six-month deadline has arrived, he has begun to teach the technique of making wine to the people appointed by the queen, and the handover will be completed after the beginning of spring next year, and Tang Tianhao can also retreat.

Everything was exactly the same as Tang Ming's arrangement, and he was very satisfied. But Tang Tianhao seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and seeing that this lucrative business was about to disappear in the future, he was unwilling.

"Virtuous brother! We sell this distilled spirit with the Queen, it's a good business, why did you set this rule in the first place? You see, now is the time of day, isn't it a pity that we just get out of the way? According to the current momentum, I estimate that there will be at least one year to make a good start, big brother. ”

Tang Tianhao shook his head with pity, during this time, he personally experienced the benefits of having someone behind him. I saw those officials before, he Tang Tianhao was not polite, during this time he lived in the Zheng Mansion to make wine, and those princes and nobles who came to the door saw him and had to be polite.

Even the queen mother will come to the house from time to time to take a look, sometimes the wine sells well, and when she is happy, she will appreciate a small favor, which is the glory. Tang Tianhao is also a little famous in this Nanjing city, and he is even more prosperous on the pipe surface.

This is typical of getting carried away, and performances like dealing with royalty are the easiest to take advantage of. Tang Ming looked at the eldest brother with pity on his face worriedly, and was even more convinced that the decision he made at that time was not wrong.

There are no permanent friends in the officialdom, everyone is polite to you because you are now in power, and when you make a move, these people will definitely immediately turn their faces and deny people. Worse still, they may fall into trouble or humiliate you.

"Big brother, money is something outside the body, just use it enough! The world's greatest, the most ruthless, does not belong to the emperor's family. Now it looks like the future is bright, but these are just buildings in the air, and after a little wind and waves, they will disappear into nothingness. It is a wise move to retreat, and after the younger brother has sorted out the affairs of the Ming Dynasty, we will go back to Jeju Island together and live our life as the emperor of the soil, and then the eldest brother can do whatever he wants, the water here is too deep for us to turn over the waves, not only that, but there may be capsized at any time. ”

Tang Ming has lived two lifetimes and these hundreds of years of historical knowledge, and from these experiences, he summed up such a truth. Tang Tianhao didn't understand that he didn't know, in short, he wouldn't let him sink into it again. Power and money are the most test of a person's will, Tang Tianhao has changed so much in just half a year, Tang Ming has to be vigilant.

Tang Tianhao, who was in deep thought, didn't see the worry in his brother's eyes, but fortunately, he was not too deep, not to the point where he couldn't extricate himself. Tang Ming did whatever he arranged, and he didn't object, at most, he just felt a pity in his heart, and there was nothing else.

The towering city walls rose like a huge mountain, and the atmospheric and heavy gates were open, and there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving. When the carriage approached the city gate, the groom did not slow down, but shouted loudly to warn the passing crowd to pay attention, and rushed straight into the city gate.

The carriage had the mark of Zheng's mansion on it, and the guards guarding the city saw it from a distance and did not go up to intercept it, allowing the carriage to whizz past with billowing smoke and dust. After a moment of commotion the gates were calm again, as if the carriage had never been there, and everyone was accustomed to it.

As soon as he entered the city, there were more people on the streets, and the grooms no longer dared to urge the horses, and slowly poured forward with the flow of people.

Tang Ming watched the crowds on the street, and all kinds of vendors along the street gathered into a torrent, washing away the dense crowd of customers. Such a prosperous scene is more than double that when Tang Ming left half a year ago.

It is no wonder that Zhu Di, the emperor who picks the door, can support Zheng He, an unprecedented huge fleet in the world, and at the same time, there is also the Beiping Imperial Palace that has begun to be built. In just half a year, Nanjing City has been operated so prosperously, and it is no accident that Zhu Di was able to create a prosperous Yongle world.

Zheng Mansion, this very extensive and magnificent mansion, its owner is often absent, Tang Ming can be regarded as a son inheriting his father's business, and this mansion is his foothold in Nanjing. The old housekeeper also heard the news of Tang Ming's return early in the morning, and thought that he would also go to the dock to pick up Tang Ming, but Tang Tianhao, a young man, took the lead.

At this time, he was already waiting at the gate of the house with a dozen servants, and when he saw his carriage returning, the old butler, supported by the two little servants, trembled down the steps to meet the carriage.

Far away, Tang Ming had already seen the old butler in the carriage, this old man who regarded him as his own. It was Tang Ming's second respected person in this mansion, he opened the curtain and jumped off the carriage that had not yet stopped, Tang Ming hurriedly greeted the old butler, held his hand and shouted: "Uncle Zheng, my body has been tough recently!" ”

"It's tough! The old slave can be regarded as looking forward to you, young master, let's go to the house, let's go to the house when the wind is strong outside. The smile on the old housekeeper's face was almost wrinkled into a bun, and he could still see Tang Ming in his lifetime, and he could be regarded as an old man. (To be continued.) )
