"Old man, just look at it, trust me."

Huang Xiongying's energetic face revealed a sense of confidence, which made Zhu Yuanzhang stunned all of a sudden.

He seemed to see the young Zhu Chongba.

Thinking that at the beginning, Zhu Chongba, who had lost everything, had to bow his head in the face of difficulties, but his heart never gave in.

After going through countless difficulties, he has grown from a teenager who is overwhelmed to a person who has the confidence to overcome everything.

Just like Huang Xiongying now.

"Hmm."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slowly......

……

Seeing Huang Xiongying come back, Zhou Ji said with a smile:

"Brother Ying, the one who knows the times is Junjie, you are Junjie, let's appreciate you!"

"Since your grandchildren have already discussed it, then hurry up and write down the recipe for making wine and salt and hand it over to us!"

Huang Xiongying smiled and said, "It's not as simple as you think, if you can really see it, you can learn it, didn't the teachers you invited learn it a long time ago?" ”

Hearing this, Zhou Ji's breath was slightly suffocated, and he laughed dryly, and said, "Brother Ying is really good at joking, so what can you do?" ”

Huang Xiongying thought for a while and said, "It's getting late today, if you come over tomorrow, I'll find a way to teach you, how about it?" ”

"Hey, hey—"

Zhou Ji smiled, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes: "What if you run away tomorrow, or regret it?" ”

Huang Xiongying said: "Since you can't trust me, what do you say?" ”

Zhou Ji touched his chin, thought for a while, and said, "It's better like this, let's make a note, what do you think?" ”

Huang Xiongying nodded: "Well, there is no harm in being rigorous, okay, sure!" ”

Seeing Huang Xiongying agree, Zhou Ji's small eyes narrowed into a line with a smile, as long as the note is set, everything is easy to say.

In black and white, you can't rely on it when you want to!

And he is not afraid that Huang Xiongying will make a hindrance from it, not teach him the formula, or do anything from it.

The recipe for making wine and salt is in hand, and that's amazing.

You must know that these two things have become popular in the elite circle of Jingshi.

When the time comes, making money is as simple as snotting.

In fact, their Zhou family is not short of money.

Zhou Ji thought more about handing over the recipe for making salt to the imperial court, and he dared to guarantee that the old man Hongwu would give more rewards, and it would be no problem to add officials to the knighthood.

Because this is a major matter related to people's livelihood!

Thinking of this, although Zhou Ji forcibly pressed down the excitement in his heart, the ecstatic look on his face could not be hidden.

"Zhou Gongzi, then please wait here for a while, I'll go and prepare the note, and I'll see if it's suitable for you later."

"Good!"

Zhou Ji nodded.

He is not afraid of Huang Xiongying's tricks, after all, the note is written in black and white, and everyone can see it.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was watching from the vulture, frowned, but watched quietly.

He really couldn't understand his eldest grandson's operation......

And it didn't take long.

Huang Xiongying came out of the room, holding two notes in his hand and handing them to Zhou Ji.

Zhou Ji opened it and saw that it was written:

"Zhou Ji, the son of Xia Hou in the current Jiangjiang River, bought a copy of the liquor and salt recipes from Huang Xiongying, and Zhou Ji needs to deliver the Fangshan in the Zhou family's fief to Huang Xiongying, and the deal can be made."

"Fang Shan?"

Zhou Ji thought about it, there was indeed such a barren mountain in his home.

He Lao Tzu and the old man Hongwu are playmates in the same village, and later followed the old man Hongwu to the east and west, after the opening of the Ming Dynasty, the old emperor did not treat them badly, and the manors, fields, and mines that were rewarded were not used up for several generations.

But the founding ministers of the same generation are both dukes and kings, and his son is a Jiangxia wait.

Zhou Ji scolded the old emperor for being unfair in his heart.

"It's not too expensive to exchange two recipes for a barren mountain that is useless to your Zhou family, right?"

Huang Xiongying said lightly.

"It's not expensive."

Zhou Ji smiled.

He is not short of money or land, but the only thing he lacks is the respect of outsiders.

Now that gang of old guys who fight the world, even if he is the worst, the authority is far from the Xu family, the Chang family, the Fu family, and the Feng family.

It was Lan Yu, who was a generation shorter than his old man, and now they all climbed to the head of the Zhou family.

No wonder the old man was so angry when he saw Lan Yu taking the opportunity to lead the army to the west a few days ago.

The old man was young, and he made a lot of military exploits, taking the attack on Sichuan as an example, it would obviously be greater than Tang He's merits, but when he was rewarded, he was forced to be pressed by Tang He.

When it comes to his own generation, let alone compare with those families.

So Zhou Ji kept holding his breath.

He wanted to prove that he was no worse than those people, and it was the old emperor who looked down on their family.

He wanted to hand over the recipe for making salt to the imperial court, shocking the government and the opposition, and letting the old emperor know that he had lost his eyes all these years!

So let alone a barren mountain, even if it's real money, he won't blink an eyelid.

But the premise is that Huang Xiongying gives him these two formulas.

And Huang Xiongying pointed out that he wanted Fang Shan, if Fang Shan really had any mysteries, he Zhou Ji had a way to snatch it back, just like this time to grab the formula.

Zhou Ji took the note up and down, left and right, and looked at it back and forth, but he didn't see any problems.

Then he handed it to the steward.

The steward looked at it no less than ten times and made sure there was no problem.

"Brother Ying, then let's sign and draw a pledge!"

Zhou Ji urged with a smile, for fear that Huang Xiongying would regret it.

"Hmm."

Huang Xiongying picked up the pen, signed his name without hesitation, and pressed his handprint.

Zhou Ji also couldn't wait to sign and draw......

Sign it off.

Zhou Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face that he felt good about himself.

With this note, he is not afraid of Huang Xiongying's cheating.

In black and white, you can't run away!

"Brother Ying'er, you can go and make trouble for Fang Mountain with peace of mind, if anyone dares to make trouble, tell us, we will stand up for you!"

Zhou Ji felt happy in his heart.

If he really makes a name for himself, then it will be his Zhou Ji again.

"Then we'll see you tomorrow!"

Zhou Ji carefully put away the notes, and then took the people and left Huang Xiongying's courtyard satisfied.

After Zhou Ji left.

Huang Xiongying looked at the old man who had been watching quietly: "Grandpa, can you do me a favor?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Huang Xiongying with a smile and said, "I'll help you report to the official tomorrow morning, right?" ”

Hearing this, Huang Xiongying's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at the old man with some incredulity: "You...... You can see it all? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows and showed a smile full of force:

"You can fool Zhou Ji's idiot, but you can't fool us, there is a problem with that note, are we right?"

"Wise as a torch, no wonder Daddy often says, you are an amazing person!"

Huang Xiongying gave a thumbs up and patted a sycophant.

Zhu Yuanzhang is quite comfortable, and at the same time, Lao Huai is relieved.

His eldest grandson let him see Zhu Chongba, who had grown up, no, he was no longer Zhu Chongba, but Zhu Deyu. (Zhu Yuanzhang's original name was Chongba, and later changed to Xingzong.) After participating in the peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he changed his name to Deyu, and finally changed his name to Yuanzhang, the word Guorui. ）

At that time, although he was still at the bottom, he was determined and had endless tactics.

Just like Huang Xiongying now.

But there was one thing he couldn't figure out.

"Xiongying, what are you doing in that barren mountain of Fangshan?"

Huang Xiongying smiled and said, "As long as you help me get a business license, you will know soon!" ”

"Stinky boy!"

Zhu Yuanzhang scolded with a smile: "Are you threatening us?" ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of something, and glanced at Huang Xiongying: "You stinky boy said that you want to join the army, is it also a threat to us?" Don't lie to us! ”

"Ahem......"

Huang Xiongying cleared his throat: "It's not all, I also want to use this to intensify the contradiction with Zhou Ji." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang just wanted to teach Huang Xiongying a lesson, and even he dared to calculate, but before the words came out, he heard Huang Xiongying continue:

"But to be honest, if my grandfather really didn't help me change my household registration, I would really go to the army, because ......"

"My grandson also wants to take a look at the unparalleled soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, the momentum of the Ming Jin Ge Iron Horse, the bravest people, and the fearless Ming generals!"

Huang Xiongying is telling the truth.

When he came to the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, he didn't think about making money.

Since he was so lucky to come to this era of unparalleled elegance from the afterlife, knowing all the stories and endings, of course he wanted to witness this era and protect this era.

He wanted to see the founding fathers who climbed up from the mud legs, he wanted to see the blue jade who used his soldiers like a god but was uninhibited and was about to be beheaded by the raiders, and he also wanted to see Zhu Di, who was guarding Beiping and was ambitious......

What he wants to see more is that the son of destiny who founded this dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang!

But these people are now high up to him, and he needs to climb up step by step until he has the ability to change the entire Ming Dynasty and the entire era......

"Good! You can say that again! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang burst into a shout and pulled Huang Xiongying's distant thoughts back, he looked at Huang Xiongying with burning eyes, but immediately grinned.

"But we won't let you join the army!"
