Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Zhu Biao immediately realized that if this corn could be planted on a large scale regardless of the north and south, wouldn't it be as magical as potatoes.

"Cousin, you are really amazing. If potatoes and corn can be planted on a large scale, Daming's granary will be piled up like a mountain. Why would you worry about food?"

Zhu Tao suddenly felt a little depressed. How could his cousin, who is not very good at business, like to mess with the chief minister of the cabinet?

"Cousin, you are right. I will present all of these at the right time, but definitely not now. As I said, it should be when Zhu Di rebelled."

In fact, what he himself didn’t know was that his suggestion had already unintentionally changed the direction of Daming. Invisibly.

But Zhu Biao didn't want to talk so much with Zhu Tao, so he changed the topic: "Cousin, your popcorn is really good, make more later, so I can take it to Fen Fen and give it to my friends to try. "

Zhu Tao just smiled, but didn't take it to heart.

"If you have a friend, you can just bring it over. You can eat this thing warm, and it won't taste good when it's cold."

Just as he was talking, Zhu Yuanzhang also arrived, and as soon as he entered the door, he began to yell loudly: "Son, what treasure have you researched for Dad this time?"

Zhu Tao scratched his head, and sure enough, his own father was always in a hurry, and when he came back, he was either thinking about eating or getting some treasures.

So, he passed the popcorn plate forward and said.

"Father, this is a new snack I've researched. It's called popcorn. Try it."

Zhu Yuanzhang twisted one, put it in his mouth and tasted it, it really melted in the mouth, soft and fragrant, he thought that although a gentleman is far away from the kitchen, every time he comes to Tao'er, he can eat good food, which is comparable to the cold ones in the palace. The imperial meal is much stronger.

After Zhu Biao introduced the corn to him, he was even more surprised. He thought that the potato was already a top-notch product, but he didn't expect that there would be corn, and there might be more different crops in the future.

Having a son like Tao'er, I really made a profit.

However, this rebellious son is unwilling to come out to be an official, but he has to study, eat, drink and play every day, and be a playboy, which is really a bit, hey!

It wasn't until this time that Zhu Yuanzhang remembered his real purpose of coming here at this time, so he asked.

"Tao'er, dad came back today to tell you something serious, you have to tell me the truth, don't hide it, did you hear?"

Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said was so serious, Zhu Tao was also a little stunned. He asked what was worthy of this expression.

"Father, just tell me, I can't hide anything from you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then said: "Your mother and I have discussed it, you will soon be 20 years old, and it is time to arrange a marriage for you, is there a girl you like. "

This sentence can't be straightened out by Zhu Tao. He is still a long way from 20 years old, why is he so anxious to let himself bloom.

But think about it, even though the father is just a businessman, but the family can be regarded as the kind that has mines to inherit, and the father will feel relieved to have a big fat grandson sooner.

However, the relationship between myself and Shen Wan'er has not been that far, and I don't know if the girl has that kind of thought for me, it's too early to say.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang know that Zhu Tao had thought about so many things in such a short period of time, but seeing that Zhu Tao was silent, he didn't urge him.

After eating a few popcorns to ease the embarrassment, Zhu Tao said.

"Father, I do have a girl I like, but we don't know what she's thinking, let it be, let's take it one step at a time, and we'll talk about whether there is any fate in the future, and I won't talk too much to you for now. "

These words were exactly the same as what Zhu Yuanzhang and Lu Liangqing said. He thought to himself, this Zhu Tao really looks like our son, and he wants to go with us.

So, he didn't say any more about this, and he also thought that it would be good to let nature take its course, and let them get married if it could be done, and if it didn't work out in the future, Lu Liangqing's daughter could also be regarded as a goddaughter, and it would be fine if she was named a princess. good.

The maids around Zhu Tao all recognized as the nieces of the princess, and one more could not be too many.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly remembered that he was hungry, and quickly yelled: "Tao'er, Dad is hungry, hurry up and get the red willow barbecue, and roast more."

Empress Ma at the side gave him a blank look, and said that since she recognized Tao'er as her son, she came here to eat and drink every now and then, and the imperial dining room in the palace almost didn't need to be fired.

Zhu Tao is also used to making rice with little technical content like red willow barbecue, at least it is much simpler than mapo tofu.

After Zhu Yuanzhang ate a big piece, he belched in satisfaction, with a sense of satisfaction in his heart, eating skewers and drinking beer, and then belching when he was full. Is there anything more comfortable than this?

At this time, while drinking the black tea roasted by Zhu Tao himself, he asked again.

"Tao'er, how is the telescope going now? Can the mass production of the assembly line you mentioned be achieved now?"

Zhu Tao replied: "Father, you should have seen that factory when you came here. Now it has begun to take shape. It will be ready for mass production in about three to five days. Here is a test product on the assembly line for you to see." .”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Tao took a copper telescope and handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying.

"The appearance of this telescope is not exquisite, and the glass is the most common, because I can't make purified glass and plastic here, but I may develop it in the future. As for the effect, it is no problem to be able to see more than a mile."

Taking the telescope from Zhu Tao, Zhu Yuanzhang observed it carefully, and sure enough, the mass-produced telescope was not as good as the one he walked along.

The material seems a little rough, so I took it outside the door and tried it, and the effect is also very good, and I can clearly see things a mile away.

As something mass-produced on an assembly line, it is not easy to be able to do this.

"Okay, Tao'er, if you can form an assembly line for this telescope, how many can you make in a day? The more of these things, the better."

Zhu Tao thought about it for a while, and replied: "I don't dare to say too many things, but at least dozens of them are definitely no problem at all. When the craftsmanship is perfected, there may be hundreds of them, but I don't know how the sales will be. "
