Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, we know what kind of virtue this kid is. If Zhu Tao is allowed to be the prince, he will definitely be interested, but let him be the prince? Tsk..."

Although the time we spent together was not too long, in fact Zhu Yuanzhang has seen through Zhu Tao's whole heart.

If Zhu Tao were to be the prince, he would be Daming's biggest playboy, and Zhu Tao would definitely be happy, but at the same time, Zhu Tao would definitely completely shut down his talents and learning, and would never interfere with anything related to power.

As for being a prince.

Impossible, you can't just let him be the emperor, let alone a prince.

Only then did Zhu Biao heave a sigh of relief. If Zhu Tao was caught off guard by Zhu Yuanzhang because of his words, then his crime would be too great.

But people like Zhu Tao who have no desire for power at all, as long as they are treated well, they will definitely be Daming's biggest pillar!

"Is it because you don't care about power that you can better unite the hearts of the people?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the villagers and muttered to himself.

After all, Zhu Tao did not rely on his status to coerce the villagers and servants, but instead made the villagers and servants loyal to him.

Zhu Yuanzhang also tried this kind of heart-to-heart exchange before he ascended the throne and founded the country, so he made many brothers, got many adopted sons and nephews, and relied on them to conquer the world.

However, after becoming the emperor, everything changed. In the imperial court, all civil and military officials were cautious, and even Xu Datang and the two closest brothers gradually drifted away.And he himself became more and more suspicious, always thinking about the division of power, thinking about saving Zhu Biao's property, and thinking about eliminating those people and things that would become hidden dangers.

It wasn't until meeting Zhu Tao, an unrelated son, that he finally found the long-lost feeling in this big house.You don't need to be on guard against anyone, you just need to think about what you want to eat, and then let Zhu Tao treat you if you are sick, and ask Zhu Tao for advice if you have a problem.

Comfortable!
Only Zhu Tao, Zhu Yuanzhang is absolutely unwilling to suspect that he has a heart of disobedience, even if Zhu Tao really rebelled, Zhu Yuanzhang would let him escape by feigning death, or send him away, away from the capital, or let him become a courtier, as Zhu Biao's arm .

Zhu Tao quickly finished prescribing the medicine for Empress Ma, and asked Linger to rest with Empress Ma in the consulting room, and then returned to the yard.

"Brother, can you make a batch of these treasures and sell them to your brother?" Zhu Di came over and hooked up with Zhu Tao, wanting to get a batch of arms.

"Fourth brother, you dare to buy and sell this, and you don't want your head?" Zhu Tao quickly refused.

"Fourth brother, I can still make this set of things, but I can only match some for my father and your house. As for making a big deal, even if my father is Zhu Yuanzhang, I will definitely die."

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard: "No, no."

Silly boy, your father and I are indeed Zhu Yuanzhang, but I will not shout for such a trivial matter.

"Young master, I also have a little bit of experience with ordnance, but I have never seen such powerful gunpowder. Could it be that you have improved it?" Liu Bowen asked curiously.

The smell in the air made him understand that these ordnance are indeed gunpowder products, but the main killing effect of gunpowder in the army is to ignite. This is the first time he has seen that gunpowder can have such a great power.

"This thing is called yellow powder, which is different from the black powder in the past." Zhu Tao took out a little yellow powder: "This is obtained from the optimization of black powder."

Liu Bowen dipped his finger in a little bit, and found that the black gunpowder he usually saw was quite different: "Young master is really talented and knowledgeable. If this thing is used in the battlefield..."

But Zhu Tao hurriedly stopped him: "Mr. Liu, don't say such things again. If the emperor knows that I invented yellow gunpowder here, I'm afraid my best ending will be in the forbidden palace."

Even, according to Zhu Yuanzhang's personality, it is not impossible to kill people and silence them, Zhu Tao complained in his heart.

"Don't worry, Tao'er...Your Majesty is not that kind of person!" Zhu Yuanzhang said quickly, he didn't want himself to be a tyrannical monarch in Zhu Tao's eyes all the time.

"Father, you don't need to comfort me. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang didn't move me out of face at the beginning, in the future, the workshop will research yellow powder weapons, and accidents will often happen. Especially if there is a big news, then Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely take advantage of these opportunities to kill me. .”

"Is this thing prone to accidents?" Liu Bowen heard Zhu Tao's meaning and asked quickly.

But think about it, if such a powerful thing can develop its application weapon without cost, it would be too childish.

"That's right, if this thing is not well controlled, it wouldn't be surprising to blow up the whole workshop." Zhu Tao recalled the accidents he had heard about yellow powder, and then thought about the current artisan technology.

"Tao'er, you can no longer study these dangerous things in the future." Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly became serious, and he realized that Zhu Tao actually developed such a dangerous thing with his own hands. If he was not careful, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Yes, Young Master (cousin)!"

"In the future, you must never take risks!"

"Your safety is more important than anything else. Yellow powder is good, but don't do it again."

Everyone was also aware of the seriousness of the problem, and tried to persuade them.

"Don't worry, I'm controlling the dose." Although Zhu Tao knew that nothing would happen to him, after all, he followed the operation manual he got at the sign-in and controlled the dose, but he was so concerned by so many people all of a sudden. I still feel very warm in my heart.

Zhu Tao asked Old Tang to direct the crowd to continue the exercise, including tunneling and firefighting techniques. Everyone watched it wonderfully, and at the same time they all had an idea.

If Zhu Tao becomes the chief general in the frontier army, he may easily be able to build a strong fortress!
"Binoculars with yellow gunpowder, Tao'er, you are going to become Gongshuban, no, it should be said that Mozi is more suitable!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with emotion.

If you talk about the most famous ordnance inventors in the cold weapon era, then the first ones must be Gongshuban and Mozi.

"Then I can't compare. Gongshuban directly invented the saw and improved production efficiency. If I want to compare with him, I must at least promote the assembly line."

"Assembly line?" Everyone heard a new term, but they couldn't guess what it meant based on the context.

Zhu Tao clapped his hands, "That's right! You can use an assembly line to produce telescopes, which can improve production efficiency a lot, and make the women and children in the village earn a share of the money!"

"Tao'er, do you mean that telescopes can be made faster?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

Zhu Tao thought for a while. There are not many jobs in the village now. Most of the children and women are busy at home weaving fishing nets and baskets, but these things make too little money. They can be arranged to build a telescope factory!
