Give me a break!

Just kidding?
Expand the territory!

And brought back so much money.

Whoever gets angry is a fucking fool.

Don't even mention teasing him.

Because of this incident, if the old man were here, the third brother would point at the old man's nose and yell. The old man would definitely greet him with a smile, right?

Who can not like such things and such people?
Who can resist someone who not only expands territory but also brings back countless wealth?
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said:
"Boss..."

"Don't do this nonsense."

"Regardless of what the Third Brother is thinking about this matter, or whether it's just a bad taste."

"Anyway, for us, as long as we can achieve the results we need and want."

"Are the others important?"

"Others are out there fighting for their lives, but although we are also having a hard time in the court, at least we don't have to worry about our lives, right?"

"It's just a little bit of bad taste. I just want to have some fun with our brothers. It's no big deal."

“I can understand that!”

"After all, we won the battle and created unprecedented achievements."

"It's impossible that we don't even have this much tolerance."

"If that's the case, wouldn't it be laughable if you tell others about it?"

"If the old man knew, do you believe he would dare to run back from Mobei without stopping to beat us up?"

As he spoke, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but laugh from the bottom of his heart.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaochi's originally silent expression instantly became restrained, and was replaced by an excited smile.

Don’t say anything else.

This makes sense.

This is also why Zhixiao guessed that the bastard Zhu Gaosui did it on purpose.

When he explained the reason to Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, there was no anger on his face, but rather the real reason for his smile.

In fact, in such matters, Zhu Gaosui's little bad taste is completely harmless and not a big deal at all.

"Hahaha……"

"Not bad, not bad!"

"Old Second is very insightful. His behavior and thoughts are really surprising and gratifying to me."

"Then we have to think carefully about what to do about the third brother's return this time."

"Which point should we use as a breakthrough point to start the action? Or should we just find an opportunity to make full use of it and proceed on multiple fronts at the same time?"

"Do you have any decision or idea in your mind about this, Lao Er?"

Zhu Gaoxu was slightly startled, turned his head and looked over, saying:

"no!"

"Boss, are you swollen?"

"Multiple threads are running at the same time, you are probably still asleep!"

"We want to make the Ming Dynasty better and more powerful."

"It's not that we are just putting the Ming Dynasty in danger right away, doing something stupid that will destroy something before it can be rebuilt."

"You've become a big fat man by eating one bite. Aren't you afraid of indigestion and suffocating yourself to death?"

"Do you really think those court officials are all idiots? It's not that easy."

"We've agreed on this before, one step at a time. Have you forgotten?"

"I'm telling you... Boss, put away your little thoughts and don't joke with me. This joke is really not funny at all."

"You want to die, I won't stop you."

"But I don't want to die. I don't want to be cannon fodder."

"Either you take it step by step, or you play it yourself."

"Anyway, you know all about the plans and plots."

"You can do it yourself!"

"You decide what to do. If you can participate, then we will. If you can't, I absolutely value my life and will never fool around with you. I definitely can't bear such a big pot, and I don't want to bear it."

As soon as these words came out.

The prince's face became embarrassed at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, he reacted instantly in his heart, realizing his own loss of composure and the danger and impracticality of such a thought. Then, without the slightest hesitation, he waved his hands repeatedly and said comfortingly:
"Hey, hey, hey."

"Please don't. Please don't."

"Second child"

"Aren't we just thinking about it, asking questions, and discussing it?"

"You guys, can you not react so strongly? Besides, there are only two of us brothers here, no one else."

"It's not like you really have to do it that way, nor is it that you have to do it that way."

"I said it wrong. I thought too much. Just change it."

Zhu Gaoxu's expression did not lessen when he heard this. His cold eyes stared at the prince who was trying to comfort and appease him, and he said solemnly:
"Boss"

"Don't blame me for my big reaction to this matter."

"Don't say you have to do it, or that it's just a thought."

"I tell you."

"You shouldn't even have such thoughts."

"The seriousness of this matter is self-evident. You know it better than anyone else. What we are doing and planning is like walking a tightrope on a cliff. There are abysses all around. If we take a wrong step, the result will be crushed to pieces, with no possibility of survival."

"So don't tell me what I'm going to react to."

"The beginning of everything has always been from such an idea, a cluster of things."

"I can be more relaxed and nonchalant about other things, but in this matter, even the normally nonchalant me and the third brother are so serious. We will never cross the red line and will not think too much about this matter."

"For this reason, I also hope that you can put away your self-righteous thoughts."

"If you want to die, I won't stop you, but I hope you don't take me and the third brother with you, otherwise..."

Having said this, Zhu Gaoxu stopped talking and did not continue speaking.

However, the threats and warnings contained in these seemingly gentle words are extremely explicit and unmistakable.

to this situation.

The Crown Prince knew that he was in the wrong and that it was his fault in this matter, so he could only smile awkwardly. He did not dare to say too much about the matter, nor did he dare to debate it with Zhu Gaoxu.

"Okay, okay, okay." "Second brother"

"In this matter, I know I was wrong. That's enough!"

"I will never make the same mistake again, and I will never think about this matter again. I will just follow our plan and carry it out step by step."

"That's fine, isn't it?"

Seeing that everyone had said almost the same thing, and they were all smart people, they could clearly feel from the prince's expression and words that he had a deep understanding of the matter and admitted his mistakes. Naturally, Zhu Gaoxu did not dwell on the matter too much or get too entangled with it.

After a brief pause, Zhu Gaoxu simply sorted out his thoughts and said in a deep voice:

"Okay okay okay"

"Just as you said, let's take it step by step."

Having said this, he paused, then suddenly changed the subject, turned his head and looked back, and asked:
"That boss"

"Do you also know that we have already planned that when the third brother comes back, the first step we are prepared to take is to take that step?"

After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi was slightly startled. Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was no longer holding on to what he had said before, he relaxed a lot. His originally silent face also showed a smile at this moment. He nodded and said with a smile:

"rest assured."

"Second brother, look at what you said."

"No matter how ignorant I am, no matter how unreliable I am, I can't forget what we planned, let alone miss a single thing."

"The first step we should take is to use the wealth brought back by the third brother from his expedition to Japan to open a Ming Dynasty bank and revitalize the Ming Dynasty treasure notes, which have begun to depreciate and gradually decline, as quickly as possible."

"at the same time."

"When circulating the Ming Dynasty's treasure notes, we must be careful to prevent certain people from causing trouble."

"Then, after the Ming Treasure Notes are put into use, we will begin to leverage the influence of the Ming Treasure Notes and win over the world's wealth, and then start promoting the construction of new schools in various places, so that as many people as possible can be enlightened, and so on and so forth."

"Do we remember if there is a problem?"

"Is there any difference, or is there anything wrong with the sequence?"

have to say.

Although the prince has a big heart, he always has a lot of ideas.

But I have to admit that the prince has a really good memory.

He was able to remember so many things firmly in his mind and his answers were completely flawless. However, when it came to putting them into practice, no one could guarantee that this bastard Prince would not fail in the middle of the process or cause any unexpected trouble.

However, with Zhu Gaoxu's solemn request and reminder just now, even if the prince has more or less other people's ideas in his mind in the future, he will definitely weigh certain things carefully and will never do things so recklessly.

Thinking about it, Zhu Gaoxu raised his eyebrows, nodded with satisfaction, and said in a deep voice:

"good!!"

"The boss's memory is really good."

"So, I have been asking you to recruit people who are good at calculations and bookkeeping. I wonder how your preparations are going, Boss?"

“Is it all complete?”

"You know, the third brother will be back in Beijing in two or three days at most. That's when we'll start our action."

"The premise and starting point for everything to proceed in an orderly manner is to recruit people who are proficient in calculations, accounting, bookkeeping, and accounting. Those people are the ones who will lead the way for us."

"This is no joke."

"Ok?"

Say it.

Zhu Gaoxu's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and the smile on his face disappeared instantly, replaced by a solemn and serious look. He stared straight at the prince who was so close to him, quietly waiting for his reply.

Feeling the eyes falling on me and feeling the changing atmosphere in the pavilion.

Zhu Gaochi, however, was like a normal person, with a smile on his face. He nodded confidently and replied:
"Second brother! Second child!!"

"Just keep your heart to yourself about this matter!"

"We may forget about other things, or postpone them, but this matter is the beginning of everything. How can we forget it? How can we not do it well?"

"If I really don't do it well, not only will you not be able to get through this stage, but if the third brother who is fighting outside knows about it, I'm afraid he will point his finger at my nose and scold me."

"I'm not a bitch."

"Hahaha"

"Everything is under control, everything is ready, and we will definitely not hold you back on this matter."

Get a definite answer.

Zhu Gaoxu's originally gloomy face also gradually relaxed a lot, and the originally silent atmosphere also slowly began to warm up, no longer as solemn as before. Then he pointed to the hot tea in front of him and said:
"That's good."

"Since there's nothing else to do, let's have some tea!!"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for the 'East Wind' momentum of the Third Brother."

"We still have a few days to go, so we should prepare well. After all, the Third Brother has been away from Beijing for such a long time, running around for the entire Ming Dynasty court, going through wind and rain. We must prepare in advance and give him a good reception."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaochi naturally had no reason to object to this arrangement, and he nodded in agreement with a smile.

That's it.

In the pavilion here, the two brothers peacefully exchanged their thoughts and opinions about what to do next.

After all, in the words just said, each of them had already tested each other's bottom line and the bottom line that each other holds in their hearts, what things are acceptable and recognized by others, and what things are unacceptable and taboo to the other party.

The things they talked about and the way they spoke to each other were extremely appropriate.

The solemn and tense situation just now did not appear again, and the atmosphere in the whole courtyard was extremely relaxed and comfortable.

Time slips away unknowingly.

The two of them chatted in the pavilion for two full hours.

When the discussion was almost over, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi looked at the sky which was gradually darkening and gloomy, drank the hot tea in his hand, put down the teacup, stood up with both hands on the armrests of the chair, and took the initiative to speak:
"Second child"

"We have said almost everything we need to say today, and it's almost like we have just sorted out all the details from the past."

"It's getting late now. It's almost dark without me noticing."

"I wonder if you have anything else to say?"

"If not, we won't stay any longer."

"I'll take my leave now!"

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu did not act arrogantly and stood up from his chair. It was not difficult to see from his expression that he was very satisfied with the subsequent conversation. He then smiled and waved his hand and said:
"It's almost done."

"We have said everything that needs to be said. If there is anything else that you want to think of, let's find another time to discuss it!"

"It's really getting late, you should go back early!"

"Otherwise, I'm afraid my sister-in-law will be dissatisfied with me again soon."

"Hahaha" (End of this chapter)
