Chapter 45: Six Hundred Miles Urgent!

"Seven-three?"

"That's right, Huang Gongzi seven, I'm three!"

Li Jinglong said with a smile.

Huang Xiongying glanced at the white silver in front of him, then looked at Li Jinglong, and said, "Cao Guogong, it's okay to divide the account five or five." ”

"Eh, what's that going to do?"

Li Jinglong said with a smile: "The salt is made by the son, I just run errands, I can get three percent, I feel very unhappy, or I will take two percent!" ”

Huang Xiongying smiled and said:

"Cao Guogong understands the righteousness, and it really makes the grass people not know what to say, so according to Cao Guogong's meaning, seven or three points."

To be honest, Huang Xiongying really didn't expect Li Jinglong to lower his profile so much.

is so sensible that he has to have a little good feeling.

No wonder Zhu Yunwen liked him so much later, this person's behavior and speech are indeed very comfortable.

Seeing Huang Xiongying agree, Li Jinglong sat down with a smile: "Huang Gongzi, the Salt Transportation Division sent someone over this morning to urge salt, do you think it's time for us to expand production?" ”

Huang Xiongying nodded: "That's what I mean." ”

"Otherwise, Cao Guogong, you go and help find a site, and we will start producing refined salt on a large scale!"

"Don't bother!"

Li Jinglong waved his hand and said: "I have a lot of places at home, I will let people sort out a venue when I go back, the venue is certain, let's hurry up and produce, every grain of salt is silver!" ”

Li Jinglong's eyes lit up as he spoke.

Huang Xiongying can see that Li Jinglong is a person who loves money, and he is willing to share it with himself, and this vision and mind are still good.

How can a war become a waste of snacks?

"Okay, then there will be Lao Cao Guogong!" Huang Xiongying said with a smile.

"Where, where can I make money with Huang Gongzi, it is my honor Li Jinglong!" Li Jinglong replied with a smile.

Huang Xiongying looked at Li Jinglong with a smile and said, "Do you want to make a lot of money?" ”

"Yes!"

Li Jinglong nodded without hesitation.

Huang Xiongying narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Have you heard of Huai'an Mansion?" ”

"Of course I do!"

Li Jinglong replied without hesitation: "The Ming Ancestral Mausoleum is there, how could I not know!" ”

"Oh-"

Huang Xiongying nodded, he forgot about this stubble, after Zhu Yuanzhang unified the world and established the Ming Dynasty, he built an ancestral mausoleum on the west bank of Hongze Lake in Huai'an in the nineteenth year of Hongwu, and posthumously sealed and reburied his grandfather Zhu Chuyi, great-grandfather Zhu Sijiu and Gaozu Zhu Bai63 emperors and queens.

"What are you asking Huai'an Mansion for?"

Li Jinglong looked puzzled.

Huang Xiongying said: "There is another piece of land in Zhuqiao Town, Huai'an Prefecture, I want you to help me take it down." ”

"Ground?"

Li Jinglong was even more puzzled: "What are you doing to get a piece of land so far away?" ”

Speaking of this, Li Jinglong couldn't help but think of Fang Shan that Huang Xiongying wanted to try to take from Zhou Ji before, although Fang Shan didn't birds, but it was also close to Jingshi, which was more or less useful.

Now he went to Huai'an Mansion and returned to Zhuqiao Town, from Jingshi to there there for 400 miles, and to go there that piece of land, isn't it purely rich and landless to spend?

Looking at Li Jinglong, who was puzzled, Huang Xiongying smiled and said, "There are good things in that field!" ”

"What's good?"

The more Li Jinglong listened, the more confused he became, how could this Huang Xiongying stay in Beijing, how did he know that there were good things in the field four hundred miles away? And what is a good thing, worth running four hundred miles?

Huang Xiongying smiled and said, "You'll know when you go!" ”

In fact, Huang Xiongying's Huai'an Province, which later belonged to Jiangsu Province, has the world's largest salt mine.

And the center of this salt mine is located in the town of Zhuqiao.

According to the detection of later scientists, the salt reserves there are as high as 250 billion tons, which is an incredible resource even in later generations.

Mineral salt, which can almost be said to have the shortest history of all these types of salt, was not developed until the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

Moreover, mineral salt has good purity, few impurities, and the quality is even higher than that of sea salt.

Seeing Huang Xiongying's unfathomable appearance, Li Jinglong didn't ask any more, and said, "When will I go, Huang Gongzi will send someone to inform me!" ”

"If Huang Gongzi has nothing else to do, then I will go back to make a good salt making site first."

Huang Xiongying nodded: "Cao Guogong go slowly!" ”

"Farewell!"

Li Jinglong got up and said goodbye.

"Wait."

Huang Xiongying stopped Li Jinglong and said, "The site for salt production must be large, the bigger the better!" ”

Li Jinglong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Understood!" ”

……

In the following days, Huang Xiongying handed over the wine to the Guo brothers.

Both things were handed over, and Huang Xiongying was also idle, and went directly to Zhuangzi in Jubaoshan to live.

After living in the city for a long time, it is really comfortable to live on the outskirts of the city for a few days.

But Huang Xiongying is not idle.

He wants to show the old man that he is really a good farmer!

Huang Xiongying thought about it, he wanted to do something different, after all, he came from the next generation, and there was nothing unusual about all kinds of melons, fruits and vegetables, he wanted to come out with something different.

In fact, the Xiaoice River period began at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and reached its peak in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

In the face of the great power of nature, people's abilities in this period are really minimal, like ants!

So Huang Xiongying still wants to try to change something.

Therefore, he asked Lao Xu to find a number of villagers in the local area, and he wanted to build a glass greenhouse.

The weather is cold, and in addition to keeping out the cold, you need something to eat.

Now Huang Xiongying doesn't have any magic seeds in his hands, if he had, he would have handed them over a long time ago.

So he could only think that if the glass greenhouse could be promoted before it became more serious during the Xiaoice River period, it might play a role.

Thinking of this, Huang Xiongying no longer hesitated, and just did it.

The first thing is to burn glass!

Glass had appeared in the West during this period, but it was still not fully mature, and the process of large pieces of glass had not yet appeared.

Occasionally, a small amount of glass products flowed into the Ming Dynasty, but they were all rare.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang explicitly banned the sea, and the sheets could not enter the water, so they were even more rare, and it could almost be said to be extinct.

However, Huaxia also has Huaxia glass, but it is called colored glass.

Glass is a precious ornament, people also call it five-color stone, like glass, but the process is not the same, the process of production is always in the hands of the royal family, it is difficult for the people to get, so at this time people regard the glass even as more precious than jade.

Lao Xu found someone, and Huang Xiongying started to work......

He wasn't in a hurry, because the glass shed wouldn't come in handy until winter, and it was only June, so there was plenty of time for him to pour it out.

These days, the old man didn't come to him.

Huang Xiongying estimated that the old man probably had too many things at home and didn't have time to come to him.

These days, Yingtianfu is rainy and rainy.

This year's rain seems to have gone too far, and the entire Ying Tianfu is gloomy, as if something big is about to happen.

But the current Huang Xiongying can't control so much......

After a few days of hard work, Huang Xiongying burned the first glass product.

It's simple, just a fist-sized glass ball.

However, this crystal clear glass ball, as clear as water and as hard as jade, has already made Lao Xu and a group of villagers amazed, and the divine object in their eyes was burned out with some sand.

It's incredible!

In the afternoon of that day, a carriage stopped in front of the Zhuangzi gate, and the old man came.

Before you enter the yard, you can hear the noise in the yard.

"Hey, what's this stinky boy doing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang unconsciously, the wrinkles on his face melted, every time he went to see his eldest grandson, it was when he was the most relaxed, and every time, his eldest grandson could surprise him, which he was looking forward to.

These days, he is indeed busy.

finally took some time, and Zhu Yuanzhang came over.

With a little expectation in his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang walked into Zhuangzi with Jiang Xuan, and as soon as he entered Zhuangzi, he saw Huang Xiongying building a shed in the open space in Zhuangzi, directing people to be busy.

Serious grandson, so handsome!

Zhu Yuanzhang watched with a smile on the side, and looked at it for a while, but he didn't know what they were busy with.

"Xiongying, what are you busy with?"

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, which made Huang Xiongying turn his head.

"Grandpa!"

Huang Xiongying suddenly showed a happy expression and said with a smile: "I miss you to death!" ”

"Hey!"

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned: "Your little mouth is really smeared with honey, do you really miss us?" ”

"Then can there be a fake?"

Huang Xiongying stepped forward with a smile and held Zhu Yuanzhang's hand: "Let's go, grandpa, I'll take you to see a good thing!" ”

"Oh?"

While Zhu Yuanzhang was curious, he couldn't stop smiling between his eyebrows, and let Huang Xiongying take him.

Entering the room, Huang Xiongying took a glass ball and put it in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"What is this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened suddenly, took the glass ball in Huang Xiongying's hand, and looked at it carefully, it was crystal clear, as clear as clear water, and as solid as jade.

"How's that, do you like it?"

Huang Xiongying asked expectantly.

didn't want to, but Zhu Yuanzhang's brows suddenly furrowed, and his voice became low: "Eldest grandson, you make money just to buy these useless things?" ”

Huang Xiongying: "......"

The old man's focus is really different from ordinary people.

Before Huang Xiongying could explain, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry, and said in a deep voice: "I like a fart!" What's the use of this? Can you eat it? If you have two money, you will buy this glass back, do you want to please us? We'll tell you, you don't have to! ”

Looking at the old man who was obviously suppressing the anger in his heart, Huang Xiongying couldn't help but feel a little emotional, the old man is really simple, it can be seen that the old man has a lot of status now, but it is really not easy to maintain such an original intention.

Huang Xiongying didn't want the old man to be angry, so he said: "Grandpa, don't be angry first, this thing was made by your grandson." ”

"Huh?"

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Huang Xiongying with some incredulity: "You made it?" ”

Huang Xiongying nodded and said, "If you don't believe it, you can come with me to take a look." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly, followed Huang Xiongying suspiciously, and then entered a small warehouse.

The scene in front of him made Zhu Yuanzhang stunned.

I saw that on the floor of the warehouse, there were many kinds of glass products.

At a cursory glance, there are at least dozens of them.

These are all Huang Xiongying's test samples during this time, there are large pieces of glass, and there are also glasses of different shapes and colors.

Zhu Yuanzhang was dazzled, and the shock in his eyes could not be concealed.

It seems that the eldest grandson is not lying!

He really made it!

However, he also knows that this glass is very expensive to sell outside, especially for those powerful people to buy back for decoration, how can it be so easy to make so much?

If you sell all these things, it's worth a lot of money!

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked in disbelief: "Are these really made by you?" ”

Huang Xiongying nodded and said, "Otherwise, what do you think?" I bought them all? Grandpa, this thing, I can make as much as I want! ”

This glaze, which is regarded as a treasure by the people, can be manufactured in large quantities?

Zhu Yuanzhang's cognition has been subverted.

Huang Xiongying naturally saw the old man's doubts, and immediately said: "Grandpa, in fact, this is not really Liuli, he just looks very similar to Liuli!" ”

"Not Ruri?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Huang Xiongying in disbelief, he hadn't seen such a thing as glass, but just now, he couldn't tell the difference for a while.

It's exactly the same.

Huang Xiongying continued: "Actually, it is not difficult to make this thing, you only need to use a special kind of sand with some things to burn it, and my grandson also discovered it by accident. ”

"These things may be worth a lot of money now, but once the technology to make them spreads, they will be worthless!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Huang Xiongying with straight eyes and asked, "Eldest grandson, what do you want to do with these things?" ”

Huang Xiongying smiled and said, "You'll know later!" ”

He can't say that he wants to make a glass greenhouse, so I'm afraid that he can't explain it clearly for a long time, or wait for the real thing to come out.

"Bastard!"

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly became angry and pointed at Huang Xiongying: "You...... Do you want to take it out and sell it to make money? ”

"You're really out of the money, you got a business license, didn't you let you play tricks to win, flies and dogs, didn't you listen to what we said? Are you a pair of donkey ears?! ”

The more Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, the louder he became, and his eyes made people dare not look directly.

This is the first time Huang Xiongying has seen the old man get angry.

Huang Xiongying smiled bitterly in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa, you misunderstood, your grandson has other uses, and he will never use this thing to collect money!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger calmed down slightly, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts looked at Huang Xiongying for a moment, and then he said: "Really? ”

Huang Xiongying replied: "Have you seen your grandson deceive you? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, but still instructed: "If we find out that you have cheated the people of their money, we will immediately take back your business registration, understand?" ”

"Grandson understands!"

Huang Xiongying nodded in response.

He could see that the old man was really angry just now, and the momentum made him a little shocked, if he really went to seek ill-gotten gains, I am afraid that the old man could smash his ass.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger also disappeared, and he said to Huang Xiongying: "We misunderstood you just now, it's not right for us." ”

"Grandpa cares about the people, and his grandson has been taught!"

Huang Xiongying said what he said in his heart, if these glass products in front of him were released at this time, they could be regarded as huge wealth, but the first thing the old man thought about was the people.

"Good grandson!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's thick palm landed on Huang Xiongying's shoulder, revealing a pleased smile: "Our eldest grandson is really a genius in the sky, salt, wine, and now this glass, you really opened grandpa's eyes!" ”

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang sincerely praised the aura on his eldest grandson, and he had to accept it.

The reason why he was so angry just now was actually more about love.

He was a thousand, ten thousand satisfied with his grandson, and he had already decided in his heart that he would hand over the Jiangshan Sheji to him.

But the more this happened, the more he didn't want his grandchildren to go astray.

He wanted his grandson to become a saint of the ages without leaving the slightest stain......

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said to Huang Xiongying: "Let's go, take us to take a good look at how our eldest grandson made it......"

……

Ying Tianfu Forbidden City, outside the Chengtian Gate.

An official who was dusty and covered with mud kept whipping his fast horse under his crotch and galloped in the direction of Jingshi.

Outer Five Dragons Bridge.

"Chirpβ€”"

When the official was running here, the fast horse under his crotch suddenly raised to the sky and neighed sadly, foaming at the mouth, his front legs were weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

The official was also swept to the ground with the fast horse that fell.

The official struggled to get up, took out a sweat-soaked six-hundred-mile urgent compendium from his bosom, held it high, and staggered towards the guards guarding the door.

"Six hundred miles expedited...... Six ......"

The official ran out of breath as he shouted with the last of his strength.

Finally, the official fell outside the Chengtianmen door.

The commander of the escort army guarding here took out the copy from the officer's hand, and when he saw it, he was immediately shocked.

I saw three feathers sticking to the envelope of the fold, and under the feathers wrote:

Six hundred miles expedited!

The commander of the escort army hurriedly shouted to the two escorts beside him: "Quick, pick him up and send him to the noon gate!" ”

The voice fell.

The two guards set up their official errands, followed closely by the commander who held up the folds, and rushed towards the imperial city.

At this moment, in the cloudy sky, a flash of lightning pierced the sky, and there was a rumbling thunder in the distance.

It's already dark in Kyoshi......
