Chapter 521: This is Impossible
Zhao Ce looked at the village chief with a faint look on his face.
When I heard him say that this matter is easy to resolve, I suddenly smiled.
"Oh? How to solve it?"
Village Chief Song said in embarrassment: "You don't know anything about Uncle Zhao."
"Our farm has a master."
"My owner said that if the charcoal you made in your family can be sold in cooperation with him, then you can use it in our village any place!"
"and……"
Zhao Ce directly interrupted him: "No need."
Village Chief Song was about to talk about the identity of the owner of the village, but was interrupted by Zhao Ce and was stunned for a moment.
"ah?"
Zhao Ce glanced at him lightly: "I said, I don't have to use the people or places here anymore."
"Starting tomorrow, I will have someone take away everything."
If the village chief had asked him to tell him about such a thing, Zhao Ce might have been a little bit
Village Chief Song said in disbelief: "Retreat?"
"When Uncle Zhao rented our land, didn't he really find a place?"
"Our village is close to the city, and the road is big enough..."
Zhao Ce ignored him and said directly to Chen Wu: "I will arrange someone to move the things here tomorrow."
"You are here to stay. After these last few kilns are out of the kiln, there is no need to burn new charcoal."
Chen Wu quickly responded, then looked up at Village Chief Song.
At first, the village heard that their master rented a place to burn charcoal in this village, and he was extremely attentive.
Later, they recruited people from their village, and everyone praised the master.
As a result, starting a few days ago, there were very few people coming to work.
Chen Wu thought that Zhao Ce asked him to supply the goods stably, so he raised some wages.
Someone came to work for two days, but then they didn't come.
Chen Wu went to several families in person, but they all said they didn't dare to come.
The charcoal in the kiln was busy, and Chen Wu really couldn't spare time.
The master happened to arrive today. When he heard that he couldn't reach an agreement, he asked them to withdraw without saying a word.
Of course Chen Wu and his group were happy.
Otherwise, I would have stayed in this village and I wouldn't know what kind of stealing things they would do.
Village Chief Song saw that Chen Wu had already made arrangements, and his face was a little bad.
He stumbled and said, "Brother Zhao, this..."
"If this happens, I can't explain to my master..."
After hearing his words, Zhao Ce said in a cold tone: "If you don't want to explain to your master, will you delay my affairs?"
"If I ruin a kiln of charcoal, do you know how much money will be lost to me?"
Village Chief Song only knew that they came to burn charcoal at the beginning.
It was only in the past two days that I heard that the expensive silver bone charcoal was burning.
He said in a little embarrassedly: "We are not intending to oppose you, uncle, it's just my master..."
"What does your master want to do? Just ask him to chat with me."
Zhao Ce was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, so he left this sentence and turned around to look at the remaining materials.
A lot of wood was transported over one after another, and charcoal was still burning in several charcoal kilns.
I have to invite more people to come and move things tomorrow.
Fortunately, I have handled the venue in the past few days, otherwise the work will be suspended.
After getting everything done, Zhao Ce left the village.
After Zhao Ce left, Village Chief Song looked at the charcoal kilns and sighed endlessly.
He called out a few young people and asked them to go into the city early tomorrow morning.
"You will go to Zhang's mansion tomorrow and tell the master the news."
...
at this time.
In the palace.
Zhu Houzhao was finishing the class and accompanied his father and several parents to handle political affairs in the warm-up hall as usual.
"I am the right governor of Guangdong to report that several Bolang aircraft ships docked in Jieshi, South China Sea, requesting to exchange trade with our country..."
A foreign ship?
As soon as he heard about these foreign ships, Zhu Houzhao immediately thought of the hot pot that he would never forget that day.
Of course, it is unforgettable to eat.
Later, when I was released, it was also very unforgettable.
Despite this, he is still looking forward to the next hot pot.
Now that he heard this memorial, Zhu Houzhao subconsciously thought of what Zhao Ce said that day that the pepper was bought from a foreign ship.
So will these ships have other better seasonings?
The cabinet has commented on this memorial. After Emperor Hongzhi read it, he had no objection and put it aside.
Zhu Houzhao saw that the few people present had no objection at all, so he directly rejected the memorial.
He picked it up with some reluctance and whispered: "Father, will you not take a closer look at this memorial?"
When Emperor Hongzhi saw that his prince actually asked about the memorial, he thought he was finally sensible and wanted to help deal with state affairs seriously.
He happily took the memorial and asked encouragemently: "Several cabinet masters have commented, may the prince have different ideas?"
While talking, Liu Jian, Xie Qian and Li Dongyang all looked at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao felt a little numb when she was watched by the few people present.
Usually, he must not dare to express his opinions at such a time.
But isn’t people living just for a bite?
Crown Prince Zhu Houzhao mustered up the courage and said, "My son thinks that since this Folang Ji people came from afar to request trade, they must have brought a lot of things on the ship that we did not have in the Ming Dynasty."
"It's better for us to accept their tribute and trade them!"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said, "What you said is indeed reasonable."
"But this matter is not feasible."
He directly wrote down the memorial, thinking that Zhu Houzhao's reason was too ordinary.
In fact, they have been discussing the matter of maritime ban recently.
The ministers argued, but in the end they didn't argue with any good results.
Liu Jian, who was standing by, said directly: "Your Highness, the implementation of the maritime ban in the Ming Dynasty is a rule set by Emperor Taizu."
Zhu Houzhao carefully interrogated: "But, doesn't Guangzhou Prefecture also open a port twice a year?"
“Since that’s the case…”
Liu Jian shook his head: "Your Highness, we are in great Ming Dynasty. It is up to us to decide who we want to accept."
"Any foreign country that comes randomly will open our gates with trade. Where is my face?"
Zhu Houzhao said unconvincedly: "Then, then don't pay tribute and allow private trade directly?"
Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "The Japanese pirates along the coast are suffering, and now there is no time for the court to take care of too much snow disasters in various places."
"It is still not appropriate to open the sea at this time."
"Okay, there is no need to discuss this matter for the time being."
"Oh." Zhu Houzhao's courage plucked up dispersed so lightly.
It seems that if you want to eat something delicious, you can only go to Yongxibo's Mansion.
Li Dongyang, who was standing by, saw Zhu Houzhao's appearance today, asked curiously: "His Prince's Highness has heard of something new recently?"
