Hearing Liu Jin talk about business, Zhu Houzhao immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Old Liu, that telescope you made is really good. The soldiers in the border town severely injured the little prince with this telescope. My father
…My father heard about this when he went to court.”
Originally, Zhu Houzhao wanted to say that he was the father, but he immediately changed his words. It seems that this old Liu still doesn't know his identity. It's better if he doesn't know his identity, so he won't have so many rules and regulations when getting along with him.
cautious.
"Severely injuring the little prince?"
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately became energetic. After traveling to the Ming Dynasty, he finally made some contribution to this country. No matter what future generations say, at least for now, the neighbor in the north is a real wolf, and he wants to be killed from time to time.
Buckle up and plunder.
Basically, every time the border town is visited, the border town area is in flames. Everywhere it passes is like a locust passing through the border. No grass grows, and corpses are everywhere. They burn, kill, and loot with all possible means.
"Yes, because a telescope discovered the little prince's movements in advance, he set up an ambush, killed tens of thousands of enemies, and severely wounded the little prince. It was really very satisfying, but it was a pity that I was not there, otherwise I would have had to use the knife.
Fall, kill three in and three out."
Zhu Houzhao was talking and gesticulating. When it came to this matter, he was very energetic.
"In the future, I will be like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. They are like a fierce warrior and an iron horse. They can swallow thousands of miles like a tiger. Yuan Jia hastily sealed the wolf in Xu. I won the hasty visit to the north and will definitely kill all these Tatars."
When Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao, he was also shocked. He thought of Zhu Houzhao in history. This was really his character and personality. He was restless and did not play by the rules. He liked military affairs and force, and his cheap father Hongzhi
The Emperor is the absolute polar opposite.
One is the model emperor whom the literati like most, and the other is the emperor who is disliked by the literati and loves to wield swords and guns.
"Um, what does this have to do with you coming to see me today?"
Liu Jin shook his head slightly in his heart, and then returned to the topic.
"Of course it does matter. Can you mass-produce the glass used in this telescope?"
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he put away his majestic general appearance and immediately asked with a smile.
"It's okay, what's wrong?"
Liu Jin replied weakly, as if someone was paying attention to his good things, and looked at Zhu Houzhao with vigilant eyes.
"It would be great if it could be mass-produced."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately smiled happily, then put his arm around Liu Jin's shoulders and said, "Old Liu, what do I do to you?"
"Not so good~"
Liu Jin saw Zhu Houzhao's posture and really couldn't understand what he wanted to do.
"Well... the main reason is that we have just met each other not long ago. You may not know that I am the most loyal person. As long as it is a friend that I recognize, I am definitely the most brotherly."
Zhu Houzhao was slightly startled, and thought for a moment that he and Liu Jin had only known each other for a short time, and the number of times they had met was pitiful. Then he rolled his eyes and said, "Look, wasn't it that I was thinking about introducing you just now?"
My wife is here, don’t worry, I will definitely introduce you to a few beautiful, virtuous, and virtuous ladies from famous families to be your wives."
"Am I loyal enough and a friend enough?"
"Ahem~ Enough, enough, tell me, what's going on?"
Liu Jin couldn't help but cough a few times, and was quite speechless about this Zhu Houzhao.
"I think this glass is definitely a profitable business. We can make it into many things, such as glass wine glasses, wine bottles, and magnifying glasses. It can also be made into various accessories.
Something like this can definitely be sold in large quantities and you can make money by keeping it."
"Old Liu, let's work together on this business. We can make 50-50 profit."
Zhu Houzhao smiled, and then he became like a shrewd businessman, carefully considering the glass-related products.
"Everyone knows that this glass will definitely make money, but why should I partner with you? I can't make money myself."
Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao with a vigilant look and said.
"Well, Lao Liu, there's endless money to be made in the world. It's so boring for you to make money alone."
"The two of us are friends and brothers. It's fun to make money together."
Zhu Houzhao was speechless for a moment, then he rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "What's more, how can you do business without a backer? As long as you do business with me, no one will dare to trouble you, and you can make money in peace and quiet."
When he said this, Zhu Houzhao also straightened his chest, as if the sky was first and he was second.
"Are you sure that no one will cause trouble for us? This is the foothold of the emperor, and there are so many powerful people. What is your family's background? How dare you say such a thing."
Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao carefully, and even though he already knew his identity, he still pretended not to know and asked.
"My family has a strong background. No one dares to mess with me when doing business in this capital. You can rest assured."
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said.
"I don't think you are someone who is short of money. Why are you suddenly thinking about doing business to make money?"
Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao in disbelief, then touched his chin and said.
"Ah, I am very poor."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately paused, and then said: "My family is quite rich, but it is all my father's money, not my money. The pocket money I can receive every month is pitiful.
And you may not know that when I spend any money, people will stare at me and make irresponsible remarks in front of my father. Oh, it’s so annoying, so I just want to make some money by myself, and there is nothing to say when I spend my own money.
That’s it.”
Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao also seemed a little annoyed. Although he was the prince and had a fixed amount of money, food, etc. every month, he was the prince of the East Palace. There were a lot of people to feed in the East Palace, and there were many places to spend money.
.
Moreover, his cheap father, Emperor Hongzhi, was a standard good emperor. He had always been thrifty. Even Empress Zhang had to weave her own cloth and wear patched clothes. Although he was a doting prince, he was very frugal in all aspects of his expenses.
It won't be too long to wait.
Another reason is that the ministers in the court are all staring at Emperor Hongzhi's family of three. Almost every day someone writes to Emperor Hongzhi to be diligent and frugal, not to be extravagant and wasteful, to refrain from extravagance and to be frugal, etc.
"Last time my father wanted to build a garden, he was scolded by a lot of people, which made my father half angry. In the end, the garden was still not completed. I don't want to be like my father, so I must learn to make money from now on.
, in this case, you can spend it however you want when you have money."
