"Can Your Highness give the way this pastry is made to the concubine?"

Li suddenly became interested and asked directly.

"Hmm, what does Concubine Ai think?"

is an old husband and wife, and Zhu Gaoxian immediately understood what Li meant.

This girl is now in charge of the affairs of the palace, and she also has a business mind, and she will definitely see the business opportunities of this Shaqima!

"If this kind of pastry can be mass-produced and sold to some powerful or wealthy merchants, it should sell very well!"

"It's just too simple, if you can concentrate more on the style and production method, maybe you can really open a separate shop to sell this kind of pastry!"

Li pondered and said what he thought.

"Why is it so difficult for you to get a shop that specializes in pastries?"

"There are a lot of pastries and snacks here in this king, all of which are very simple, but no one else has ever seen them!"

"If you are really interested, go back to this king and give it to you, and you can figure it out for yourself!"

When Zhu Gaoxian heard this, he immediately laughed.

It seems that her princess really has the potential to be an entrepreneur and do business!

Don't underestimate food, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the closest to the lives of the people, and they are also indispensable four aspects, as long as you can work hard in these four aspects, if you want to build a business empire in the shortest possible time, it is not impossible!

Regarding Li's ideas and attitudes, Zhu Gaoxian is still very supportive!

Most of his time has to be spent on retreat and cultivation, so these things can only be done by the Li family!

"Thank you, Your Highness, concubine!"

When Li heard this, he was naturally overjoyed!

......

Ying Tianfu!

The first batch of potatoes, corn and other grain products from Shandong have finally been delivered!

Above the court, when Zhu Di and a group of ministers saw the basket of potatoes and corn, their faces were also full of excitement!

"Your Majesty, can Huguang and other places get some grain seeds of corn and potatoes for promotion and planting?"

"Ying Tianfu hasn't planted it yet, when will it be Huguang's turn?"

"Besides, the land of Jiangnan should also be the first area to start promoting!"

"You are wrong, it is said that this potato is not planted in a place, even in the barren land of the north, it can also be planted, and it should be promoted from the north!"

“......"

For a while, many officials in the court quarreled over where to promote planting first!

"Alright, shut up for me!"

"This is the court of the Ming Dynasty, do you really think it's a vegetable market? Can you still look like an official?"

Zhu Di reprimanded with a straight face and a very dissatisfied tone.

Hearing this, the officials with blushing faces and thick necks who were arguing suddenly quieted down, but there were still seven disagreeable and eight dissatisfied in their eyes!

"Xia Yuanji, you are the head of the household, come on. "

Zhu Di directly named Xia Yuanji's name at this time.

This old boy didn't agree with the fourth child to promote potatoes and corn in Shandong at the beginning, and now what?

When I look at the potatoes and corn, my eyes are about to glow green!

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this corn can be promoted in the south and other places, and potatoes are mainly placed in barren places, for example, it is more appropriate!"

"After all, potatoes don't pick the ground, and this corn still has certain requirements for the land!"

"After the imperial court basically grasps the cultivation situation in various places, it will be more secure to decide to promote it to other regions!"

Xia Yuanji said his thoughts!

"Well, you're right, so let's go along this line!"

"The matter of corn and potatoes will be handed over to your household department, if anything goes wrong, it is your responsibility Xia Yuanji, don't blame me for the trouble that will make you when the time comes!"

Zhu Di nodded in agreement, and at the same time warned Xia Yuanji.

"Command!"

When Xia Yuanji heard this, he hurriedly agreed.

"Your Majesty, in addition to these grains, His Royal Highness King Qi has also dug salt pans in Shandong, and it is said that a large amount of refined salt has been produced!"

At this moment, the officials of the Ministry of Industry also spoke.

"Well, I have known about this matter for a long time, and King Qi mentioned this matter to me in a letter before. You can rest assured, although this method of making salt is the King of Qi's, but the refined salt made by this one, I will send someone to negotiate directly with the King of Qi!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he waved his hand directly.

In fact, Zhu Di has long known that the current output of refined salt in Shandong is actually only enough to supply the market in Shandong, and after a period of time, when the output of the fourth side comes up, he will take the initiative to hand over the agency of salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River to the imperial court!

The word agency, including agency, was also invented by Zhu Gaoxian!

Because in the later period, after the output of refined salt from Zhu Gaoxian's side was high, he was also ready to export salt products, and there was an agent!

And it was from that time that the Ming Society began to reform the commercial tax, of which the salt merchant tax was the most important part!

However, Zhu Di also knows very well that the collection of business tax is an inevitable thing!

In the past, it was often said that businessmen were lowly people, especially the literati and doctors of the Manchu Dynasty, who regarded businessmen as the lowest profession, but is this really the case?

These people are worried about the status of merchants, and after the imperial court also increases the commercial tax, they directly encroach on the interests that originally belonged to them!

This Manchu Dynasty civil and military, who dares to say that he has no business in private?

Some of them are secretly supported, and some of them are related to each other, anyway, they make a lot of money one by one, but they don't want to pay taxes to the court yet!

Therefore, whenever the issue of collecting commercial taxes is mentioned, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty must be in opposition!

In the past, when the old man Zhu Yuanzhang was in power, he didn't look down on businessmen at all, and that was because Zhu Yuanzhang was once oppressed by businessmen, and he felt that businessmen were not good people in his bones!

But who would dare deny the importance of businessmen to a country?

Especially after seeing the prosperous scenes of later generations, Zhu Di clearly realized that these businessmen are proper fat sheep!

Of course, Zhu Di also knew what this official meant when he proposed that King Qi had produced refined salt.

It's nothing more than the salt-making formula of the red-eyed people!

To put it bluntly, I just want him Zhu Di, to be the old man, to ask for his son's formula!

If there was no national sports system, Zhu Di might have really done this, but now how could he grab the formula of the fourth child?

"Okay, if it's okay, just retreat.!"

After Zhu Di finished speaking, he got up and walked out of the hall directly.

A group of officials can also see that Your Majesty deliberately doesn't want to talk more about Zhu Gaoxian, the King of Qi!

Whoever doesn't know how to get up again, is looking for his own death!

"Lao Geng, you take it easy, make up your mind and hit the prince, I don't know why I don't have my head!"

Xia Yuanji reminded the officials of the Ministry of Industry just now lightly, and then turned to leave.

......

Zhu Di got off the court and returned to the imperial study, and the originally tense face gradually showed a smile.

Because everything is moving in the best direction!

Although the effect is not obvious now, the speed of development in Shandong has been significantly accelerated under the conscious promotion of itself!

Moreover, he did not have a northern expedition for the time being, nor did he levy grain in a large area across the country, which obviously allowed Shandong to recuperate, and its development will inevitably become more and more rapid!

You must know that in the original history, Shandong was actually the province most affected by the Northern Expedition!

Because of the drought, Shandong was already miserable enough, but because of the imperial court's northern expedition, it was necessary to supply food, and at the same time, because of the matter of moving the capital to Beiping, the Grand Canal had to be dredged!

These tasks basically all fell on the people of Shandong!

During the Yongle period alone, the number of people in Shandong who sent grain to the north was as high as tens of thousands!

You know, these hundreds of thousands of people are young and strong laborers!

It seems that the Northern Expedition is indeed a waste of money and labor, and the five expeditions to Mobei are such a feat, don't do it, if you have to go north, then bring the fourth kid with you, and solve the problem at one time!

"Your Majesty, the Qi Palace's side sent someone to send a brocade box!"

Just when Zhu Di was still thinking about when it would be appropriate to go to Shandong, Gonggong Li suddenly came in with a brocade box!

This is also what Zhu Di has explained before, but whatever is sent from the Qi Palace, it must be sent to him as soon as possible!

"Hmm, bring it to me!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he immediately perked up!

Seeing this, Gonggong Li didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent it to Zhu Di with a smile!

Now many people also know that as long as it is a tribute sent by His Royal Highness King Qi, His Majesty the Emperor will like it very much, who would dare to slack off?

Zhu Di took the brocade box and couldn't help but get excited.

"I don't know what the fourth kid sent to me this time?"

Zhu Di, who was full of anticipation, directly opened the lid of the brocade box, but after seeing the contents inside, he was directly stunned!

"What's this?"

"Pastries?"

"Well, it looks pretty good, the fourth kid, nothing else, but he is very particular about eating!" (Read the violent novel, go to the Feilu Novel Network!)

"But all this time, I haven't seen this kid eat fat, not like the boss, and he grows fat when he drinks water!"

Zhu Di looked at a few pieces of shaqima in the brocade box, and muttered unconsciously!

East Palace.

The crown prince Zhu Gaochi, who had just left the early dynasty, was eating breakfast.

But at this moment, he suddenly sneezed several times in a row!

"Strange, why do you always feel like someone is talking about me behind my back?"

Zhu Gaochi touched his nose and said suspiciously.

"You didn't get a cold last night, did you?

Zhang looked at Zhu Gaochi's appearance and couldn't help asking.

"No, I have to go to the imperial study to help the old man work after eating, how can I have the time to see any imperial doctor?"

"If you go late, you may have to be scolded by the old man!"

Zhu Gaochi waved his hand helplessly.

"Prince, this is a brocade box sent from the Qi Palace!"

At this moment, a eunuch suddenly came in a hurry, and at the same time brought a brocade box.

"Oh, the fourth brother must have brought me a delicious meal again, hurry up and bring it to me!"

When Zhu Gaochi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up!

"Eat, eat, eat, know to eat!"

"Don't you look at it, how fat have you become?"

"If you eat it again, do you want this body anymore?"

Zhang looked at Zhu Gaochi's appearance that he couldn't walk when he saw food, and complained speechlessly.

"I, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, why can't I even eat something good?"

"Besides, this is sent by the fourth child!"

Zhu Gaochi pursed his lips disapprenorovingly, and he couldn't care about breakfast with the brocade box, so he ran directly into his study!

At the same time, the Han Wangfu and the Zhao Wangfu also received a brocade box sent back from the Qi Wangfu!

But when they saw that the brocade box was full of pastries, the brothers were speechless!

The things they give to the fourth child are basically treasures, at least real money, but every time the fourth child gives them back, it is something to eat and drink!

But it tastes really good!

Whether it is Zhu Gaoxu trying Zhu Gaosui, they will not really have any bad thoughts about Zhu Gaosui because of this, after all, they all know what kind of character the fourth child is!

No matter how much money he gave that kid, he must have used it for fiefdom governance, and his life was not necessarily good!

At the same time, in the imperial study of the Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Di looked at Shaqima in the brocade box, and there was actually the words "ready to eat" written on it, and he immediately felt interesting!

It's quite sweet!

This pastry doesn't have the outer film, and it will go bad after a while?

Zhu Di didn't care about it at first, and directly tore open the bag on the surface, ready to taste the taste of this pastry.

[The system has monitored the longevity pill!]

At this moment, the voice of the national sports system suddenly sounded in Zhu Di's mind!

"'What?'

"Where's the Longevity Pill?"

Zhu Di was even more shocked when he heard this, but if he looked closely at the brocade box, there seemed to be nothing else except for those pastries!

Where did you get any longevity pills?

[Aren't these pastries you see the longevity pill the longevity pill? It should be that Zhu Gaoxian, the king of Qi, grinded the longevity pill into powder and then mixed it into this pastry!]

The National Fortune System explained slowly.

"What? You said that there is a powder of the Longevity Pill in these pastries? Why didn't that kid just give the Longevity Pill..."

Zhu Di, who understood it, was just about to say something, but the words stopped when they came to his mouth!

The fourth child is afraid that he will be a father, and he doesn't believe in the efficacy of the longevity pill, so he won't take the longevity pill at all, so he remembered to use this method to let himself inadvertently eat the longevity pill!

After thinking about this relationship, Zhu Di's heart was suddenly full of emotion!

The fourth child, is really filial!

[Eat it out of the bag, otherwise the effect will be lost!]

The national sports system reminded at this time.

Zhu Di woke up suddenly, looked at Shaqima who had opened the bag in his hand, and stuffed it directly into his mouth in the next second!

Not to mention, the taste of this pastry is really good!

But that's secondary!

The most important thing is that there is a longevity pill in this pastry!

Soon, that piece of shaqima was eaten by Zhu Di!

[It's a pity, the effect of the medicine has been reduced a little!]

The voice of the national sports system sounded again!

"Reduced?"

"How much?"

Zhu Di was dumbfounded and hurriedly asked.

[Reduced by one percent, that is, the effect of the medicine only adds nine years to the life of the host!]

The National Movement System explained.

When Zhu Di heard this, he hurriedly shook his fingers one by one!

"And now?"

After finishing his fingers, Zhu Di asked again.

[Uh... It's the same, why don't you add a brocade box for this pastry?]

The national sports system said speechlessly.

Zhu Di: "..."

It seems that this is also a feasible solution!

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Just when Zhu Di was holding the brocade box and was about to lick it, a voice suddenly sounded!

Needless to say, the fat figure of the person who came has already explained his identity, it is Zhu Gaochi!

Zhu Di subconsciously put down the brocade box directly!

Just kidding, let Zhu Gaochi see himself holding a brocade box and licking wildly, do you want this old face anymore?

"Dad, is the food sent by the fourth child so delicious this time?"

Zhu Gaochi asked with a puzzled expression.

"Stinky boy, when did you come in?"

Zhu Di immediately knew that this kid seemed to have seen something that shouldn't be seen, and his face suddenly darkened!

"Hehe, this food, the fourth child also sent a box to the East Palace. Not only that, but the second and third children have also received it!"

"But I haven't eaten it yet, so it must be very delicious!"

Zhu Gaochi explained with a smile.

As soon as he came in, he saw the old man rubbing his fingers!

Good fellow, if he hadn't shouted, the old man would have been ready to lick this brocade box of food!
