The group of talents that Zhu Ao began to cultivate in private in his early years, including his research team, is a kind of people who will not be disclosed to the public, and now it can be said that everyone is a cash cow in Zhu Ao's hands, and they can be regarded as top talents! For this group of people, Zhu Ao has strict restrictions, but he will not treat them badly, and even his family members can follow them!

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew through the simulator that there was still such a group of people, but he was not going to snatch people from under Zhu Ao, after all, the throne was ready to be passed to him, so why bother to destroy the relationship between father and son? .

Now Zhu Yuanzhang is waiting, and after everything is arranged, he will go to Ganzhou to have a showdown with the old fourteenth!

In the study, Zhu Ao looked at the match order that Li had just handed over, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Now there are more and more merchants from all over Daming who order matches, and on the basis of the existing scale, it should be possible to expand the production capacity by about 30%!"

"In addition, the number of orders purchased by the vassal kings is also the largest!"

"But ......"

Li reported on the production and sale of matches, showing a look of embarrassment.

"But what?"

Zhu Ao suddenly frowned.

At present, the sales of matches can be said to be all over the Ming Dynasty, and he does not want any problems to arise at this juncture!

Although the unit price of matches is low, it is precisely because of this that ordinary people can afford to buy them, and the amount is also a large amount of silver profits!

Moreover, it is much more convenient to use methods such as fire folds when using matches!

The only drawback may be that we must always pay attention to moisture-proof and waterproof!

However, even if it is unusable in water, the problem is not big, after all, it is not worth a few dollars, and ordinary people will not feel sorry for those boxes of matches!

In this case, the popularity of matches in the Ming Dynasty is an inevitable result!

"His Royal Highness King Yan took away a batch of matches and a batch of cement before, saying that the silver will arrive in the next two days......"

When Li Shi said this, he paused again! Zhu Ao naturally understood what she meant, and immediately frowned.

When these vassal brothers were looking for their own purchases before, he had already said in front of him, even if he was a brother, he had to pay off the money and goods, so that no one owed anyone! Zhu Di had the idea of wanting to take credit before, to put it bluntly, it was a white wolf with empty gloves, so how could it be so easy to sell his goods for money, and then pay for the goods?

At that time, he refused!

All along, all the caravans sent by the vassal kings wanted to buy goods, and they came with cash, and everyone was relatively safe with each other.

Even if there are occasional special circumstances, it can be understood that the payment is two days late, but basically it does not take more than three days, and you will feel that you will make up for all the insufficient payment! After all, no one is like a stiff relationship because of this money, and the rules set by Zhu Ao at the beginning are broken!

Since the Li family deliberately took out this matter to talk about it, it means that the fourth Zhu Di's arrears this time have been seriously overdue!" "How much silver?"

Zhu Ao asked with a frown.

"It's not a lot of silver, only 20,000 taels!"

"But if you set this precedent, I'm afraid of ......"

Li reminded with a wry smile.

Accustomed to seeing the big scene of hundreds of thousands, millions of taels of silver, these 20,000 taels of silver, the Li family really can't look down on it!

What she is entangled with is that once such a precedent is opened, she is afraid that everyone will follow the same example, and the arrears will be more and more!

This is tantamount to these vassal kings putting the cost of the goods on Zhu Ao's head! They sold the goods in a short time, and it is good that they can return the money in time! But if it is delayed, the capital chain will have to be broken!

"In this way, there is no need to urge this money, but tell the people below that if the payment is not made up, no one will want to pull the goods away from us again!"

"Even the vassal king is treated the same, if there is any problem, let the other party come directly to this king!"

Zhu Ao pondered for a moment, and then commanded directly to the Li family.

"Got it!"

When Li heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief! What she was afraid of was that Zhu Ao remembered the brotherhood between the vassal king, and she couldn't pull this face to urge the payment! Since Zhu Ao said so, the original worry did not exist! As for the problem of going directly to King Su?

Do they dare?

If you really want to get involved with King Su, then you don't have to do business in the future! Even if those vassal kings come in person, I'm afraid they won't have this face, right?

After accompanying the Li family to deal with the accounts, Zhu Ao walked out of the study directly, and saw Geng Qing coming over.

"Your Highness, there is news from Yingtian, saying that the thirteen princes have changed their titles to acting kings, and their fiefs have also been changed to Datong, and they are about to become vassals!"

Geng Qing reported directly to Zhu Ao.

Zhu Ao didn't look too surprised when he heard this, Zhu Gui, the acting king in history, was originally the king of Yu, and he was renamed the acting king in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, and he was the same domain!

Not far from Beiping Mansion, this old thirteen went to be neighbors with the fourth!

Within the year, the thirteenth Zhu Gui should be in the same domain, and it seems that Zhu Gui's life trajectory has not changed!

After the acting king Zhu Gui became a vassal, it was almost the turn of Zhu Chang, the old sixteenth king of Qingqing!

History records that King Qing Zhu Chang was in the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu in Ningxia, and now the timeline has shifted and been postponed for two years, probably next year!

For Qingwang Zhu Chang, Zhu Ao didn't have much feeling, his friendship with this younger brother since he was a child could not be considered good, or his relationship with all the vassal kings was actually very weak, and he even had conflicts with them when he was a child!

Before, he also had some opinions on the affairs of Xingqing Mansion in Ningxia because the old man asked Zhu Chang, and felt that the old man might want to use Zhu Hao to reduce the military power in his hands!

But now it seems that this is not the case!

What's more, now that he is still in charge of Hanzhong Mansion and Xi'an Mansion, Zhu Ao doesn't care if Zhu Chang's domain will pose any threat to him!

After all, the current Hamiwei is still in the hands of his Su King Zhu Ao!

The trade routes of the Hexi Corridor are also in the hands of his Zhu Ao, like 867!

Even if Zhu Chang really arrived in Ningxia, his sense of existence is not high, so he can only be a little transparent!

"Have you seen any recent movement from the vassal kings?"

Zhu Ao motioned to Geng Qing to say as he walked.

"I haven't heard of anything about it. Now basically all the vassal kings are busy doing business with us, and nothing special is happening!"

"But...... Over there in Beiping Mansion, the monk you ordered to keep an eye on has been going in and out of Yanwang Mansion quite frequently recently!"

Geng Qing thought about it and reported truthfully to Zhu Aoyu.

The monk of Beiping Mansion naturally refers to the Daoyan monk Yao Guangxiao.

Frequent entry and exit of Yanwang's Mansion? It seems that this fourth brother is a little anxious! When he was in Yingtianfu back then, he had seen Yao Guangxiao, and he also confirmed at that time that this monk was still a bit of a Taoist, but not much!

The so-called proficient in Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are actually just some skins!

Ordinary people may be surprised by him, but here in Zhu Ao, it is really not enough to see! I don't know if this monk's Taoism has improved after so many years???

In fact, Zhu Ao didn't take Yao Guangxiao to heart, with his existence, this 'black-clothed prime minister' still wanted to assist Zhu Di, the king of Yan, to ascend to the throne, that was impossible! The master and servant chatted while walking, and unconsciously came to the martial arts arena where Zhu Zhanfeng usually trained!.
