Volume 5 Chapter 538 The Power of the Great Ming!
For the eldest grandson Wuji, things have developed to this point, which is quite what he expected.
Whether it was Da Ming to regain the market with new things, or what he planned to use commercial means to play bundle sales, even if the eldest grandson Wuji did not expect the exact details, he also guessed the general direction.
Of course, this is actually not difficult to guess, from the time when he didn't hide it, the fool guessed that Da Ming would definitely react.
The reason why the eldest grandson Wuji was like this at the beginning was actually to see how Daming would deal with it.
For now, not bad.
But if that's all there is, it's not enough.
"Let's go, let's take a look inside." The eldest grandson Wuji said with a smile, "I have long heard that Daming is rich in all kinds of things, and today the old man should take a good look and observe." ”
As he spoke, the eldest grandson Wuji raised his legs and left.
When Puxi heard this, he also followed.
Judging from this detail alone, you can see the gap between Puxiruo and the eldest grandson Wuji.
It was only a moment's work, and the eldest grandson Wuji grasped the situation.
Of course, from this point of view, the Ming court is still too soft, there is no internal competition, and everyone's growth is slightly too simple.
And after the eldest grandson Wuji and they went away, Xu Jingzong deliberately fell behind, Li Qinjian saw this and was about to greet Xu Jingzong, but Chu Suiliang greeted him at the right time and asked some questions.
This Chu Suiliang is also a human spirit, and when he saw this, he immediately walked forward while making an inquiry, so that Li Qinjian had to follow. Seeing that Li Qinjian kept looking back at Xu Jingzong, Chu Suiliang smiled and said: "It's okay, our county guard likes to hunt for curiosities the most, and these strange things in Daming must have dazzled him."
We'll talk about ours, and he'll follow later. ”
"This ......" Li Qinjian saw Xu Jingzong and those businessmen mixed together, muttering something, and had to shake his head at the moment, and said, "Okay then." ”
No, in addition to Chu Suiliang, there are many officials in the two states here, and Li Qinjian can't put them all aside.
And Xu Jingzong's side, he was really not idle, and after communicating seriously with a group of businessmen, he followed with a spring breeze on his face.
As for this little trick of the Ming Dynasty, he really didn't take it seriously.
Long ago, he had agreed on a response with his eldest grandson Wuji.
And after he left, those businessmen also discussed together for a long time, and in the end they could be regarded as having a good conversation.
As far as they are concerned, as long as they can make money, the business is the same as whoever does it, and after all, they are going back to Datang to do business, and it is not good to offend the eldest grandson Wuji.
Therefore, when Xu Jingzong gave them a solution, everyone recognized it.
And the eldest grandson Wuji saw Xu Jingzong follow, and immediately smiled: "Speaking of craftsmanship, Daming is indeed ahead of many people, and this is also worth learning from my Datang." ”
"The county guard is right." As soon as Chu Suiliang saw the reaction of the eldest grandson Wuji, he immediately understood, and he also echoed, "But my Datang's craftsmanship has also developed rapidly recently, and I heard that not long ago, Chang'an General was the supervisor to develop black powder to help his Datang destroy its Xue Yantuo in a war." ”
"That's just military." The eldest grandson Wuji waved his hand and said, "Militarily, my Tang Dynasty is the dominant one in the world.
Who dares to hide its edge in the whole world?
But when it comes to people's livelihood, Daming is still stronger. ”
Puxi listened to the two of you, you and me, and I wanted to vomit, how could there be such a brazen person in the world?
Isn't that just forcing me to speak? But there is no way, no matter how disgusting Puxi Ru is, he still has to speak: "The Duke of Qi has a reputation, the old man heard that Taohe County has also been developing an industry recently, and with the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, this industry is only afraid that it will grow by leaps and bounds in a short period of time." ”
"Hey." When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he sighed and said with a smile, "In the end, it is still two years behind the Ming Dynasty, and the gap in time is not so easy to catch up." ”
Hearing him say this, Wan Qipu, who was in charge of the safety of today's market opening, smiled on the side and said, "This Qi Guogong of the Tang Dynasty is self-aware?" ”
He already has a big personality, and he doesn't have so many rules in Daming, so he made the eldest grandson Wuji angry with a casual sentence.
I'm humble!
Humble understands?
Of course, this breath can only be suppressed in the bottom of my heart, and it is not easy to attack.
"General Wan Qi is going to talk nonsense!" When Puxi heard this, he scolded him. Of course, the mouth is scolding, but the heart is also secretly cool.
There are some things that he can't say as a servant, but Wan Qipu, a martial artist, doesn't have much impact.
"No problem." The eldest grandson Wuji smiled, "By the way, this shopping is also shopping, when will the port open?" So many businessmen are still waiting.
Look at their shining eyes, coupled with the dazzling array of shops in Daming, I'm afraid that there will be signs of sweeping the entire market as soon as the market opens! ”
Although he said that, what he wanted behind the smile on his face was to see how you would end up losing face later.
Pu Xiruo looked up at the sun and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then let's go to the east gate, the preparations for the opening of the market have already been made, just wait for Qi Guogong's words." ”
Of course, that's all there is to say.
The eldest grandson Wuji was okay with this, and said with a smile: "That's okay, it's okay to open the market early, there is a business in Taoyuan City that is going to open today, and the old man, as the county guard of Taohe, should go and see it." ”
With that, the group turned around and walked towards the east gate.
And not long after they turned around, at the west gate, Li Chengqian and his party finally arrived late.
Actually, Li Chengqian should have come earlier, probably before the eldest grandson Wuji and others came over, he could arrive, but on the way here, he happened to deal with the problems encountered by Zhang Erniu, so it was delayed.
And with Li Chengqian, there is also Sun Chong, the head of the Ministry of Rites.
The eldest grandson Chong was actually deliberately brought by Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, Pu Servant and Li Shangshu and Qi Guogong of the Tang Dynasty went to the East Gate to prepare for the opening of the port." As soon as Li Chengqian arrived, the officials of the household department who were waiting here early in the morning came to report to him.
Nodding, Li Chengqian asked, "How are things going?" ”
When the household officials heard this, they immediately introduced what had happened before.
After Li Chengqian listened, especially when he heard that the eldest grandson Wuji had only taken the initiative in a moment, he shook his head slightly.
He also realized that there were still flaws in the harmonious court after all.
In the past, he thought that the more united the court of the Ming Dynasty, the better, but such a court lacked struggle, and when he met an old fox like the eldest grandson Wuji, it was really like a contest between primary school students and adults.
"Let's go, let's see." Shaking his head, Li Chengqian said.
With that, Li Chengqian led Changle towards the east gate.
And at the same time, the East Gate.
Pu Xiru was discussing the opening of the port with the eldest grandson Wuji and others.
A group of businessmen are also gathered outside the east gate at this time, they are also smart people, today is the first time that Tang Ming Industry has faced each other, and they also want to see who can have the last laugh.
Although many of these businessmen have agreed to Xu Jingzong's conditions before, if there is still a change, they are not unable to change it again.
At this moment, someone ran over and whispered in Pu Xiruo's ear, Pu Xiru heard this, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Everyone, my Royal Highness King Ming has arrived, how about you welcome His Royal Highness King Ming with this official first?" ”
"That's nature." As soon as he heard that Li Chengqian had arrived, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly came to his senses.
Speaking of which, his nephew, he hasn't seen him for more than two years since he left Chang'an in the west.
In the past few years, I really only listened to his name and did not see his people.
When everyone heard this, they also began to tidy up their clothes.
Don't look at how calm they were before, but when Li Chengqian came in person, even Xu Jingzong and Chu Suiliang were quite nervous.
Of course, the most nervous is Yang Tingshi and others, after all, today is a fight with Li Chengqian, how can they not be nervous, if they offend Li Chengqian, how should they deal with themselves when Li Chengqian ascends to the throne in the future?
"See Your Highness."
"See His Royal Highness King Daming."
……
Not long after, Li Chengqian led Changle and walked over under the protection of Liu San, Wei Chi Baolin and others.
And all the people bowed in unison.
"No need to be polite." Li Chengqian smiled slightly, "This king just passed by and heard that the trade ports of Daming and Datang are open today, so I just stopped by to take a look."
Go on and leave the king alone. ”
While Li Chengqian was talking, Wei Chi Baolin and others had already prepared a soft couch for Li Chengqian and Changle.
After saying that, Li Chengqian led Changle and walked towards the soft couch.
It seems like I'm really here to see it.
As for the eldest grandson Wuji and the others, he didn't even look at it.
On this occasion, he is the king, how can he take the initiative to condescend to greet a county guard in the Tang Dynasty?
In this regard, the eldest grandson Wuji has no opinion, but he feels that Li Chengqian is becoming more and more mature, and he does have the appearance of a king.
glanced at Li Chengqian, but it was just a glance.
As for the others, the reaction was different.
For example, Chu Suiliang and Xu Jingzong, both of whom knew Li Chengqian, but when they saw Li Chengqian at this time, they both had a sense of strangeness, and they were like the Tang Dynasty prince they saw when they were in Chang'an.
Another example is Cui Mingyuan, he also dealt with Li Chengqian, but Li Chengqian did not put so much pressure on him at the beginning.
Li Chengqian just sat there and didn't say anything, which made him feel a sense of oppression inexplicably.
Also having the same feeling as him is Chen Dingan, who has also dealt with Li Chengqian.
Of course, the most unbearable ones are Yang Tingshi and others, and several people are in a cold sweat at this time.
"Then let's move on." Pu Xiruo looked at the reactions of these officials in Datang, and suddenly felt that the stone that had been pressed in his heart before seemed to have been moved, and the whole person felt a lot more comfortable.
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said: "Since His Royal Highness King Ming has no intention of these trivial matters, then we naturally have to worry about His Highness." ”
Rumble!
Bang!
Collapse......
At this moment, there was a sudden rumbling sound in the distance, and there was more than one.
Everyone was immediately startled by this voice!
Following the prestige, I saw a burst of smoke and dust rising not far away, and the formation was quite spectacular!
Seeing this, Li Chengqian turned around and took out the cloth stuffed in Changle's ears, and then asked in a low voice, "Are you scared?" ”
Changle looked at the smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and asked curiously, "What is that?" ”
"That's a good thing, this year's New Year, we can see dazzling fireworks in Changle, it's much better than this gray one, it's all colorful." Li Chengqian said with a smile, "What you see now is preparing for fireworks." ”
For Changle, Li Chengqian has always felt a little indebted, but as the king of the Ming Dynasty, he really doesn't have time to accompany Changle day and night.
"Is it really colorful?" Changle was obviously attracted by Li Chengqian's words.
In fact, when it exploded just now, even if she had a cloth ball stuffed in her ears, she was startled, but as soon as she heard Li Chengqian say that, her attention was instantly diverted.
"That's nature." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
He's still very good at coaxing children.
When he was coaxing the child, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others were shocked, this movement was too big, just now, they even felt that the earth was shaking.
"Pu Servant Shot, what's going on?" Even if he is as stable as the eldest grandson Wuji, he hurriedly asked at this time.
Puxiru was also taken aback, and he didn't know what was going on.
At this moment, Li Chengqian got up and said: "It's okay, it's just gunpowder that my Ming Xin researched, and today they are just opening mountains and cracking rocks over there in order to build a gallop road."
This is also the reason why the king himself came here today, because the power of gunpowder is too great for the king not to pay attention to it.
Now that it's over there, you can continue to do it. ”
Hearing Li Chengqian say this, the eldest grandson Wuji was even more shocked.
Gunpowder?
Datang only researched black powder a few days ago, and you tossed out gunpowder in an instant?
And today, in front of the old man and others, the mountains and rocks are cracked, no, what do you mean?
"I don't know that Your Highness's gunpowder is the same as the black powder of my Tang Dynasty?" The eldest grandson Wuji asked puzzled.
He realized that something was wrong.
"How?" Li Chengqian sneered, "Qi Guogong, is this suspected that my Daming stole your Datang's black powder formula?" ”
"The ministers don't dare." The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly said, "However, the power of the foreign minister is indeed similar to the black powder of my Tang Dynasty. ”
"Humph!" Li Chengqian snorted coldly and said, "Is the black powder of the Tang Dynasty more powerful than my Ming gunpowder?" This king heard that the black powder of the Tang Dynasty can only be heard?
Can I have the power of Daming gunpowder to open mountains and crack stones? ”
"Qi Guogong is cautious!" Pu Xiruo also immediately stood up and said, "Gunpowder is developed by my Ming Dynasty, how can it be compared to your country's black powder?" ”
He was very happy at this time, before Li Chengqian came, he had been pressed by the eldest grandson Wuji, but now that Li Chengqian arrived, it was really feng shui in turn, and he came to my house today!
The previous decline, with the arrival of Li Chengqian, was reversed in an instant.
looked at Li Chengqian again, and admired it from the bottom of my heart.
Clean up these arrogant guys, it has to be my Royal Highness.
"The minister lost his words." The eldest grandson Wuji took a deep breath, and said in his heart, what if there is gunpowder, the old man wants to see the opening of the port today, how will you end up in the Ming Dynasty?
Seeing the expression of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Chengqian didn't know what he was thinking, and sneered in his heart: "This king wants to see what flowers you can toss!" ”
Immediately, Li Chengqian beckoned and whispered a few words to the eldest grandson Chong who leaned over.
