Just as Zhu Yuanzhang's heart sank, Zhu Gaoxu brought hope to Lao Zhu again.

"Actually, there are ways to solve this shortcoming."

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's mood was like a roller coaster, being teased continuously by Zhu Gaoxu.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's hope rekindled, Zhu Gaoxu continued: "Yesterday, the immortal told me in his dream that he could solve the problem of not being able to produce at a large scale. He asked me to go and have a look today. If there is any problem, he would solve it in the evening.

I asked you in your dream to tell me the solution."

"I got up this morning and just wanted to go there to have a look, when I was called over by Grandpa Huang. It's nothing. I'll go to the Ministry of Industry to have a look later, but my grandson doesn't have enough to eat right now and is afraid of sleeping at night.

No, the Immortal will not be able to find me when the time comes and it will ruin our Ming Dynasty's good deeds. This is my grandson's fault."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned dark. He didn't believe Zhu Gaoxu's words. This was an obvious threat.

But Zhu Yuanzhang also had no way to deal with this. The solution lies in other people's hands. If this little monkey boy doesn't say anything when the time comes, who has a temper?

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang could only say helplessly: "Today, ah no, we will give you the right to enter the palace at any time, and you don't need to inform us when you come to us. From now on, you can come to the palace to eat whatever you want, and you can do it if you don't want to move after eating."

How's it going in the sleeping palace?"

In response, Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said nothing, but just kept staring at Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu obviously understood what Zhu Gaoxu meant, and he pretended to be angry and said: "Little monkey, don't be too greedy. Do you know that this reward we give you is coveted by many people? There are such things in the world.

The power you have is no more than the amount of a palm, so just be content with it."

What Zhu Yuanzhang said is right. This reward means that you can see the emperor of the Ming Dynasty at any time. It is the dream of many people to see him more than once to communicate and express feelings.

But Zhu Gaoxu didn't take it seriously and continued to stare at Lao Zhu.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so scared by Zhu Gaoxu that he could only say helplessly: "Okay, okay, let's give you another piece of land, or give you a thousand acres of fertile land?"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't care about these things anymore.

Later, his father usurped the throne and let Zhu Di live a life of addiction for two years. When he succeeded to the throne, the whole world would be his. What would he do with the land?

As for fertile land, he just needs money now, and he can’t sell the land Lao Zhu gave him, so what does he need it for?

So Zhu Gaoxu shook his head directly to show that he was not interested.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang also had a headache. He suddenly realized that he, the Ming Emperor, had nothing to give to this little monkey cub.

He couldn't afford what the little monkey boy wanted, and he couldn't give it to others who looked down upon him. So he couldn't give him a wife at such a young age, right?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang could only ask helplessly: "Then what do you want? Give us something practical, don't give us a big mouth."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his little hand, with his five fingers tightly together, and placed it in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Looking at this gesture, Zhu Yuanzhang was confused and asked with some confusion: "What does this mean?"

"poor......"

"..."

"Come on, let's ask the private treasury to give you one thousand taels of silver."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu finally showed a long-lost smile.

Seeing Zhu Gaoxu smiling, Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that this matter had turned over, Zhu Yuanzhang talked to Zhu Gaoxu about conscription again.

"I heard that you asked Mao Xiang to recruit 10,000 new troops and select the best from them. You also said that this was my intention. Now the little monkey knows how to take advantage of us."

The so-called elite soldiers in ancient times mostly refer to strong men aged from eighteen to thirty years old.

What Zhu Gaoxu means is that not only must you be qualified in terms of age, but you must also be outstanding in other aspects.

Zhu Gaoxu had nothing to say about this, and he didn't believe that Zhu Yuanzhang was talking about him for such a trivial matter.

Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang did not make things difficult for him, but instead supported him.

"I have already issued an order to the surrounding state governments, asking them to select elite soldiers and help Mao Xiang select them. When the new recruits arrive, there is an old military camp at the hunting ground outside the imperial city. When the time comes, they will be arranged there."

Zhu Yuanzhang had been a soldier and thought very carefully about these things and had already prepared them early.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said he understood.

"Tell us what difficulties the new recruits have when they arrive. Now many ministers see your jokes and see our jokes, so you must come up with something for us."

Zhu Gaoxu understood what Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Yuanzhang allowed him to lead the army despite a lot of pressure. Although he did not discuss it with him in advance, it was not a sign of trust in him.

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang talked to Zhu Gaoxu about the matters that need to be paid attention to when leading troops.

Finally, the conversation changed and we talked about what happened yesterday.

"I heard that you arrested someone in Wanhua Building yesterday?"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded. This is not a secret. There was quite a fuss yesterday. There were many people in Wanhua Building at that time. In addition, Jin Yiwei was asked to help arrest him. Zhu Yuanzhang even knew that he took Zhu Gaochi to the brothel.

It’s not an exaggeration to know.

"That thing was done by Jin Yiwei. I didn't expect it to be dirty. We don't care what you talked to that person yesterday or how you want to deal with him. But remember, don't deal with people in the world."
