Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and asked without any expectation, "How is it?"

Lu Wei responded, "The one we just saw was indeed a colleague we know. We went into the shop and chatted with him for a few minutes. We didn't dare ask too many questions, but we confirmed through indirect inquiries that he was indeed on duty here. This shop owner must also be his business informant."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, which had calmed down, began to beat wildly again. He sighed in disbelief, "So... this little wolf cub really did this!?"

"That's about it." Lu Wei said with certainty.

"no……"

"This little wolf cub..."

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly couldn't speak clearly and fell into deep thought again, frowning and trying to sort out his thoughts.

"Little wolf, cloth, Beiping, helping the people..." Zhu Yuanzhang's mind flashed with the image of his grandson who had made a great splash that day. He was surprised, yet puzzled. "He wants to help the people, so why is he picking Beiping to help? Is he spending his own manpower and resources to build up the reputation of the fourth brother? Wouldn't it be in his best interest to focus on Yingtian Prefecture first? Or is it..."

While thinking, Lu Wei added, "Oh, by the way, Old Huang, that colleague in the shop...seems to have connections with the Coal Transport Bureau in Beiping Prefecture."

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows furrowed even tighter.

His expression became indescribable. "Coal Transport Bureau? Why is it related to the Coal Transport Bureau again? Isn't that the company that Little Wolf Cub set up to transport and store useless coal to the provinces, prefectures, states, and counties of the Ming Dynasty?"

Speaking of this.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fixed, as if he felt he had grasped something. He stood there in a daze, not saying anything, but quietly thinking.

for a long time.

He then had a bold idea.

"The Coal Transport Bureau has coal storage points in every province, prefecture, state, and county in the Ming Dynasty. They can transport coal through land and water transport across the country, and they can also transport other things, such as this kind of cloth!"

"If the little wolf cub had done this, he wouldn't have just sent it to Peking to sell... So... couldn't he have secretly shipped this fabric to coal transport companies across the country and then sold it to the people?"

"Perhaps, it's not just in Peking, but also south of Peking!"

"This guy once said, 'Secrecy is the key to success.' If this kind of thing were known early on, it might be difficult to push forward. Doing it quietly would actually result in less resistance. Perhaps...is the so-called coal shipment to heat people across the country a cover? Or is the fabric shipment the real deal?"

"Pretending to build a plank road while secretly attacking Chencang, this little wolf cub likes to use this trick."

The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the style of Zhu Yunhuan.

Thinking of this, my heart started beating wildly, and my heart felt like a huge wave was surging and I couldn't calm down.

However, at this moment.

Lu Wei, standing beside him, timidly poured cold water on him. "But, this... Old Huang, to achieve this, Your Majesty must first be able to produce so much cloth, right? I just took a look, and there's quite a lot of cloth being sold in this shop. There's so much in Peking alone. If every province, prefecture, state, and county in the country sold this much, how much cloth would be produced?"

Being reminded by Lu Wei.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze for a moment. He felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured down on his head while he was still feeling warm.

There was silence in an instant.

Ok……

He had to admit that what Lu Wei said made a lot of sense.

Spinning and weaving are both time-consuming and labor-intensive tasks. That little wolf cub has only been on the throne for a short time. No matter how hard you try, it is impossible for him to produce so much cloth to supply the entire Ming Dynasty!

"Could this be a coincidence? Or is it because we don't dare to find out too much information that it looks strange?" Lu Wei asked tentatively.

Zhu Yuanzhang said nothing.

Looking at the people coming and going at the shop door, he was silent for a long time.
