Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Seeing that Zhu Tao can handle this matter in his own way, Zhu Di no longer worries about him.

He took out a silver note of 1 taels and slapped it on the table, and said to Zhu Tao: "Cousin, I can't ask for your thirty oil presses for nothing. The Guoshang Division has plenty of money. If you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it for nothing. I still get it."

Now that this is the case, Zhu Tao has no reason to refuse. He put away the bank note and expressed his gratitude to Zhu Di.

The two discussed the purchase of black beans again, and besides the first batch of 50 catties of black beans, Zhu Di ordered another 300 million catties of black beans with Zhu Tao.

Now Zhu Di has almost become Zhu Tao's God of Wealth. This cousin who works in the State Commerce Department brings good news to him every time he comes.

After the business negotiation was over, Zhu Tao cooked himself and cooked a few special dishes, and the two had a good time drinking.

After Zhu Di left, Zhu Tao thought about the conversation just now.

He was thinking that human nature has never been greedy enough, and this Zhang Bofu might come again, and the time interval will not be very long.

Even though he thought about it this way, Zhu Tao did not expect that Master Zhang would come so quickly, and he would come again after only two days.

However, this time he didn't bring any entourage or guard of honor, Qingche Jian came to Zhujiazhuang by himself, walked straight into the yard, and didn't regard himself as an outsider.

If it weren't for the presence of Old Tang, he would have been dealt with by these anti-thief agencies long ago.

After seeing Zhu Tao, the two sat down as guests and hosts. Old Tang still served tea politely, and then withdrew.

Seeing Zhang Bofu coming here again, Zhu Tao knew it must be used to extort money, but asked in a pretentious manner.

"Master Zhang, we haven't seen each other for two days. Why are you here again? What business are you doing this time?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Bofu didn't regard himself as an outsider at all, drank a sip of tea, and said something very calmly.

"Brother Zhu, I don't have enough money to spend now, so I can only come to you to play the autumn wind. I heard that your oil-pressing workshop makes tens of thousands of taels of silver every month. Last time you took 500 taels to kill me. Send it away, now that I think about it, I feel that you don't consider me a friend!"

Zhu Tao suddenly felt helpless, if Zhang Bofu was a little reserved last time, then he would simply grab it now, taking shamelessness to the extreme.

But he is not a soft persimmon, and he can't be pinched casually by others, just to say it directly.

"Master Zhang is so arrogant! According to the current market price, one tael of silver can buy four hundred catties of rice, and 500 taels of silver is the salary of a second-rank Beijing official for five years. You think I'm not enough friends, so what can I do?" Friends enough? Will I give you my workshop?"

Originally, it was inevitable that Zhang Bofu came to blackmail this time. He never thought that this young owner named Zhu Tao would dare to resist.

Although he is only a fifth-grade doctor, he is Dai Wang's brother-in-law at any rate. Wherever he goes, others will give him some face. After thinking about it, he couldn't get angry and shouted.

"Zhu Tao, you boy, don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine. Now I'm here to discuss with you. When I'm in a bad mood, even if you give me another 5000 taels, 5 taels, I'm afraid it will be useless!"

Zhu Tao waved his hand and looked at him with disgust, as if he didn't want to say anything more to him.

This gesture, which seemed to drive away or see off the guests, directly made Zhang Bofu angry. Before leaving, he smashed a teacup to show his anger.

This bowl is not some precious blue and white porcelain, if it is dropped, it will be dropped, Zhu Tao is not angry.

When Old Tang was cleaning up the debris, he was a little annoyed and said.

"Master, why are you so calm? This bastard doesn't care who is behind him. I'll beat him up first. Not everyone in our Zhujiazhuang can come here to act wildly."

But Zhu Tao shook his head, and said to Old Tang: "Old Tang, you don't have to be too angry. This tea bowl has actually foreshadowed the fate of Mr. Zhang. It will be broken into pieces. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. A few days later." It can probably be verified within."

Old Tang was a little puzzled, how could it be so simple for a fifth-rank official and the prince's brother-in-law.

But for Zhu Tao's words, he never doubted, he believed what Zhu Tao said, just wait and see.

Sure enough, this Zhang Bofu was not a good person, he couldn't blackmail Zhu Tao, and after returning, he thought that the villain would sue first.

Zhu Tao wanted to act according to his plan, but unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang acted faster than him.

In the value room of the cabinet, the three chief assistants and six ministers were all discussing Zhu Tao's newly invented oil press, and Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked a question.

"Shen Aiqing, we heard that you sent an officer to Zhujiazhuang to conduct a field inspection of the oil press workshop. Yes, it is right to take a good look at it. Then you can tell us about the situation of the inspection. Bar."

Shen Meizhuang was also unlucky. Since Zhang Bofu came back, he hadn't said anything to him. He had always been ambiguous, so he didn't have any first-hand detailed information here, so he told Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Bofu, the doctor of household department, is waiting outside at this moment. Would you like to call him in and ask him to report this matter in detail?"

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly remembered that this Zhang Bofu was the brother-in-law of his No. 13 descendant Wang Zhugui, and he was rewarded with an official position because he really couldn't pass the exam. He was a little displeased, but he still said.

"Okay, then call him in, let's hear what he has to say!"

This Emperor Zhu thought very clearly, if this person was sincere in doing things and could analyze clearly, even if he had no fame, he would use it again in the future.

After Zhang Bofu came in, he first performed the grand ceremony of the monarch and his ministers, and then began to perform. He burst into tears and burst into tears: "Your Majesty, it's terrible, that Zhu Tao from Zhujiazhuang, he wants to gather people to rebel!" , Your Majesty, please send troops to exterminate immediately, so as to avoid future troubles."

Zhu Yuanzhang was almost out of breath, Tao'er was so lazy that he didn't get up before noon, you let him rebel?I'm afraid it's not appropriate to give it to an emperor for nothing.

However, he still asked patiently: "You said that Zhu Tao is going to rebel, but what evidence do you have? You know, in our Daming, false accusation is a third-class crime. You are still the prince's in-law, so you can't just say anything!"

Zhang Bofu cried again with snot and tears: "How dare I lie, Zhu Tao gathered more than 2000 people in Zhujiazhuang under the pretext of cotton spinning and oil extraction, and called it a workshop. In fact, he secretly forged weapons. I also heard that he has a large number of experimental fields to grow food, isn't this just hoarding food and rebelling?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't listen anymore, suppressed his anger strongly, and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure you have real evidence for what you said? Rebellion is not a trivial matter!"
