Borrow money from Zhu Yuanzhang!
To be honest.
Although Zhu Rong appeared to be very confident about this matter, he himself was not confident.
Because Da Ming was really too poor now.
He was so poor that sometimes he could not even pay the salaries of officials.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang was considering using the money-printing technique to print Ming Dynasty notes to pay the salaries of officials.
Under such circumstances, Zhu Rong wanted to 'borrow' 100,000 taels of silver from Zhu Yuanzhang.
One could imagine how difficult it was.
If not for that, Zhao Min would not have agreed to the bet so easily.
Of course, although it was difficult, it was not impossible.
Although the Imperial Court was poor, they still had a hundred thousand taels of silver.
He did not even need to use the national treasury. Just the palace treasury alone could allocate 100,000 silver.
The palace treasury was Zhu Yuanzhang's private stash.
It was usually used for the daily consumption of the royal family.
However, it was not easy to get Zhu Yuanzhang's private money.
He had to think it through!
Therefore, on this night, Zhu Xiong did not work hard to cultivate.
Instead, he wrote and drew according to the memories in his mind. In the end, he found two reasons to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to "borrow" money.
Yes, it was like this.
It was definitely not because Zhao Min had locked the door in advance and prevented him from entering the room.
...............
The next morning!
Zhu Rong did not follow Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions to report to the Six Fan School.
Instead, he calculated the time of the morning court session and went to the palace to "borrow" money from Zhu Yuanzhang.
After all, the Six Fan School was not as attractive as the Divine Arts.
When Zhu Xiong thought of the scene where he and his wife studied the divine arts together, the Ming Divine Martial Code in his body started to circulate, and the effect of his cultivation increased rapidly.
Don't ask. If you ask, it means that you have sufficient primordial yang.
He was full of vigor and vitality, and his body was extremely strong!
They arrived at the palace with ease.
Zhu Rong arrived at the Hall of Martial Valor almost on time and told Zhu Yuanzhang the purpose of entering the palace this time.
"Borrowing money from me?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the purpose of Zhu Xiong's visit, he could hardly believe his ears.
There were still people in this world who came to borrow money from him, the emperor?
Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless. Without even thinking, he directly refused,"No!"
Even the landlord family did not have any surplus grain!
For the sake of silver, he, the emperor, was so worried that his head was about to turn white.
In the end, this little brat in front of him actually came to borrow money from him.
Moreover, he had asked for 100,000 taels.
Did he really think he was a bank owner?
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang did not even think about it and directly rejected it mercilessly.
Zhu Rong didn't give up and pretended to be pitiful.""Imperial Father, you must help this son this time. You must know that this son came to the Imperial Palace this time to make a bet with Zhao Min.”
"If I can't borrow 100,000 taels of silver from Imperial Father, I really won't be able to raise my head in the future.”
Zhu Xiong didn't directly take out the trump card he had prepared.
After all, using a trump card meant one less trump card.
If he could be thick-skinned enough to get 100,000 taels of silver from Old Zhu for nothing, then he would just lose his face.
"Haha!"
Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled.
Zhu Yuanzhang understood his son very well.
If he didn't have the confidence to win, he definitely wouldn't have made a bet with Zhao Min.
The only thing that made Zhu Yuanzhang curious was…
What trump card did Zhu Xiong have that could make him so confident that he could get 100,000 taels of silver from him?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was as clear as a mirror as he quietly watched Zhu Rong's performance.
Zhu Rong sighed in his heart. He knew that if he didn't take out something, it would be impossible to borrow money successfully.
He took a deep breath and pretended to be reluctant. He gritted his teeth and said,"Imperial Father, your son is not asking for your silver for nothing. Your son is prepared to use a treasure map to exchange for Imperial Father's hundred thousand taels of silver.”
"Treasure map?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned when he heard this. He couldn't help but become interested and said,""Oh, what treasure map? It's actually worth 100,000 taels of silver?”
"If the treasure map in your hands is really valuable, it is not impossible for Zhen to lend you a hundred thousand taels of silver to make a turnover.”
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had taken the bait, Zhu Rong did not agree immediately. Instead, he raised the price and said,
"Imperial Father, this son isn't boasting, but the treasure map in this son's hands is enough to ensure that my Great Ming won't lack money for the next hundred years.
So if you want the treasure map in your son's hands, then you can't 'lend' your son 100,000 taels of silver, but reward your son 100,000 taels of silver.”
Zhu Rong was not stupid. He had to return the money he borrowed.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to change the word " borrow " to " reward ".
"Oh, so that my Great Ming won't be short of money for a hundred years?”
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't believe Zhu Rong's words, but he became serious and said,""Is what you said true? If you can really make my Ming Dynasty not lack money for a hundred years, so what if I reward you with a hundred thousand taels of silver?”
Zhu Yuanzhang was not a stingy person.
If Zhu Rong's treasure map could really make Great Ming not lack money for a hundred years, then the money in the treasure map would be at least a few hundred million taels.
Compared to such an incredible amount of wealth, a mere hundred thousand taels was nothing.
"Imperial Father, don't worry. This son has never lied to Imperial Father. Moreover, this son doesn't dare to speak nonsense about this matter!”
"I only hope that after your son presents the treasure map, Imperial Father will not go back on his word!”
Zhu Xiong patted his chest and promised, at the same time reminding Zhu Yuanzhang of the reward he deserved.
"Don't worry, as long as your treasure map is real, Zhen will send a mere 100,000 taels of silver to your residence!”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said straightforwardly.
