Chapter 1052 Expectations
In early July, after a long journey, the recruits from the Heihuo Central Camp arrived at the military camp.
Yinglei is not far from Jingu Garden, Li Coach Academy, where they will carry out long-term training.
After the training is completed, it will be handed over to the first-class officer in the city and continue the training.
Shao Xun, sitting in the mountains of Jinguyuan, could see the new recruits who were training from afar.
There were also a group of old Dengs sitting next to him, plus some young officials. The latter was specially called by him, including Huan Wen who was about to go to Nanyang to take office, Yin Hao, the chief clerk of the Taipu Temple, Yuan Dan, the left attendant of the Qin King, Youlexuan, the right attendant of the Yan King, Cui Jinghua (Shangdang Tunliu Cui family), etc.
He had already understood the attitude of the old Dengs.
There are all kinds of thoughts inside, and there may be resentment, but when it comes to actual actions, it is mostly obedient, and at most it is bargaining. But Shao Xun still wants to know about the young people's attitude.
As for a simple conversation, you can talk about anything without being bound by the monarch and ministers, commonly known as bragging.
"Your Majesty just talked about the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River-" Shangshu Ling Chu Hu said, "It's a different kind of interest to look at it from me. The small bridge flows, the flowing water, the walking people at dusk, the yellow dogs greet the door, the smoke grows from the fields, and the quiet and peaceful hometown feelings come to your face. People live in the house. Here, your mind is calm and you can concentrate on studying."
"If you have the time to study, it is better to think about how to manage your family business." Shao Xun said: "If you don't have family business, your descendants are afraid that they have to work among the fields and ridges. How to manage your school?"
Chu Hui smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right."
Shao Xun continued, "I just asked, "I went to Jiangnan, what is your career? I have been talking for a long time, but I just talked about my feelings, but there was nothing. Take Jingzhou where I am about to attack as an example, and you can wait for details. Think carefully, if there is a manor, how to start operating it."
"It's just that Ren Tu came from." Wang Yan stroked his beard and interrupted.
"Yifu, Mrs. Guo should talk about this matter. She is better than you." Shao Xun said.
Pan Tao, Yang Jizhi and others all laughed, but the others did not dare to laugh.
Shao Xun said, "Today I will talk about it. You can refer to it in detail. No matter what, if I manage my industry in Jiangxia or Jiangling, one of them is silk."
"It's not only thick silk and silk, but also exquisite silk, satin, and even thread blankets. I heard that Qinghe County has a skilled Weaver Girl who never married her forever, but she has gained a lot, which is enough to support her. Jiangxia and Jiangling are all over the world. It is suitable for sericulture, which is a great source of wealth.”
"The second one is the citrus. What a pity, my power is overwhelming, and there are no prefectures and counties to pay tangerines to this day." When I said this, I felt helpless.
"Your Majesty, it's actually not without a solution." Huan Wen listened on the side and said, "As long as you spend money to get the clues, you can get citrus from Jingzhou and send them to Beijing at a fast horse."
Shao Xun smiled with relief. After all, the son-in-law was still filial to his father-in-law.
However, he waved his hand and said, "I have led a million troops to go south to attack Jingzhou. Why do you need to get money right? But Yuanzi was right. Citrus is easy to rot and must be transported quickly. Not something that ordinary people can enjoy. But you can think of a way, do you have a strategy? "
The king of a country is "greedy" and asks the three officials whether there is a way to preserve fruits in the south. It doesn't sound very concise, but this is a simple conversation. You can even tell ghost stories here and discuss the mystery of a woman's body.
Wang Yan didn't understand these things, so he shut up.
Pan Tao looked around and smiled and said, "My family has a method, which is treasured and kept, and it will not be leaked. Today, Your Majesty asked about it, and I said it. You can first use salt to pick up the fruit, then use lotus leaves and mud heads. Seal it, from autumn to the second winter, and it can be eaten. In addition to salting, there is also a method of sweet and vinegar. Take pears as an example, peel them and cut them into pieces, place them in pear juice, then pour honey, and use mud to make them with mud. Seal the jar mouth and can also be eaten for a long time."
After saying that, he said, "Even if my family relies on this method, we can also eat the reality of summer and autumn in the middle of winter."
After hearing this, Shao Xun was solemn and said, "I know the method of salt and sweet sourness, but it is very rare to keep it for more than a year. Can you let the Shaofu learn this method and recommend it more?"
"I will ask someone to offer this method when I go back." Pan Tao said.
Shao Xun looked at everyone and smiled and said, "If you make a big profit with this method in the future, you will have to offer Yang Zhong a gift."
"It should be." others said one after another.
Shao Xun said: "Sweet salt and sweet sour are not as good as fresh fruits. But now that things have come to this point, there is no other way. If your descendants are unwilling to learn the classics, they can study them at home. One day, there may be a new method, which can Save for longer."
After storage for a long time, there is a possibility of long-distance transportation, which can become a long-term transaction.
"Your Majesty, I have also heard that Jingzhou has black plums, which is of better quality than the northern region. It has the 'Plum Fried', which is always famous."
"There are also crabs, or they can be packed with felt blankets and hung on the post horse. When passing the official letter, you can send the crabs on the way. In this way, the official letter is delivered, the crabs are also arrived, and the postmen will make a profit."< br>
"Didn't you hear that Jingzhou can grow tea?"
"There may be medicinal materials. There are many in Jingzhou, such as Mother Bell, Gardenia, Orange Peel, Shilongrui, etc."
Shao Xun laughed while listening, and said, "Look. I didn't mention this topic just now, and you'll have nothing to say."
Everyone laughed.
"The classics passed down from family traditions, and they are honored." Shao Xun said: "However, there are many barbarians in the south of the Yangtze River and the situation is complicated. If you don't raise hundreds or thousands of soldiers, how can you survive? After your family goes to the south, many of the artifacts still need to be themselves. It is absolutely impossible to buy in the north without the way to make money. Among the clan, some people are studying, some people work in the fields, some people become officials, and some people are breeding goods. Only then can they be justified. "
"A clean talk, talk less about gods, ghosts, monsters, corpses, and immortals, and drinks, and talk more about the way to make money. What's wrong? From now on, I will see the Qing talks and gatherings to talk more about this. Reading and curing Industry, even arrangement, music, dance, arithmetic, and tricks are all serious things. I don’t like the sayings of gods and monsters. I don’t like to become immortals either. Remember, you and others.”
"Yes." Everyone responded.
"That's right." Shao Xun's face turned and he smiled, "Don't worry. I'm going to save the fields in the north and set up a large number of soldiers in the palace. Twenty years later, the troops in the palace will be crowded, including the chief commander of the Hu people and the court. Officials and even wealthy merchants can afford the property of Jiangnan manor. With these two million people, they can do business."
"Sometimes there are few people in Jiangnan and cannot produce so many. Then think of a way. Can you do something that can only be done by ten people? In the past, there were dozens of water pests in Jingu Garden, and you can do it with all your strength. At that time, the sound of pounding rice and grinding noodles can be heard far and near. You can start from now on. If you don’t know, you can get it from another family and spend money. Or you have some ambitions to let your nephew who is not a businessman specialize in this product and not seek people. . "I heard that among the scholars in the northern region, there are many people who have never been an official or a disciple from their birth to death, but they have no worries about food and clothing, and have a leisurely life. What's the point of such a life? Why not study it? Clever things often make money for the family. Even if you can’t do these things, making some music and dance widely spread will be beneficial to the world.”
"I am not worried that you are rich enough to rival a country. What are you worried about? Let the people of the world use better and cheaper cloths, eat food that they had no chance to enjoy in the past, there are cotton clothes in the cold winter, cold shirts in the summer, and sick Isn’t it beautiful to have cheap medicinal materials and better coffins after death, so that the world’s wealth will increase day by day? ”
"If anyone can write books and talk about the way to make money, or the production of clever things, and even arithmetic, music, dance, scenery, geography, etc., I will make it famous and give it a noble position, and the descendants' family. Yin entered the officialdom and never broke his promise."
"It is true that scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are all stone people of the country. Even so, it is difficult for workers and commerce to be the ones. Because they have a meager income, they are busy making a living, or have no one in their official position, and they are trembling. But if scholars do labour and craftsmanship, they are trembling. , business affairs will be invincible. There may be disadvantages in the process, but I don’t care, as the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."
"This is all for today's words, and I'll talk to you next time."
After that, let’s have some refreshments.
Wang Yanze clapped his hands. A moment later, a team of graceful dancers entered.
At this time, Wang Hui, the governor of Jizhou, came over and said softly: "Your Majesty, the dancer is the one who leads the dancer—"
"Forget it." Shao Xun waved his hand and said, "I don't like this."
Sample, corrupt me with a woman? Have you studied the method of selecting concubines in the ninth grade?
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Wang Hui was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, I'm Menglang."
"You are white?" Shao Xun asked.
"Yes." Wang Hui said, "My father is the former governor of Jingzhou, and the prime minister is my father."
"Oh, Wang Pingzi (Wang Cheng)'s son." Shao Xun glanced at him and said, "What is Lingzun doing in Langya?"
"Live around the mountains and rivers, expressing my secret feelings." Wang Hui said.
"I know how Pingzi can do it." Shao Xun said, "He still needs him in the old house in Langya, so it's great to stay at home."
Wang Hui smiled awkwardly.
"Where were you before?"
"I went to Jizhou, followed Meizi to do things, and sorted out the book of Dutian books."
"In the second half of the year, Jizhou has been traveling again. Are you still going?"
"If Mei Zi is busy, she is just going to be a subordinate." Wang Hui said carefully, with a little expectation and desire on his face.
Shao Xun said nothing, but nodded.
After the dance, everyone looked at Shao Xun and saw that he had no intention of lying on the topic, so they relaxed a little.
Wang Yan observed his words and expressions, so he talked about the fact that someone wrote "songshe" in Beijing.
This is still very topical and everyone is very interested.
Shao Xun waved, asked Huan Wen to sit beside him, and said, "Yuanzi, when will you go to Nanyang?"
"I will go in the next few days." Huan Wen said with a low eyebrows.
"If Fu Bao is unreasonable, don't pay attention to her. A real man should put his achievements first." Shao Xun said.
"I obey the order." Huan Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
Just say this, but if you don’t believe it, you can’t suppress the bride.
"You go there, you want to socialize in officialdom and gather with scholars—"
"I must be clean and clean." Huan Wen guaranteed immediately.
Shao Xun was stunned.
I asked you to have more relationships with people in the Nanyang officialdom. After all, transferring food and supplies requires local cooperation. Where do you want to go?
I can't tell that Fu Bao has been naughty for more than ten years, but he actually has such a way to eat her husband tightly.
"Okay, okay." Shao Xun nodded repeatedly and said, "Go as soon as possible. In more than a month, I will also travel south."
After saying that, he pointed to the people present and smiled and said, "If you don't defeat Jiangnan, they can't wait."
No matter how many cakes are drawn or how much chicken blood is used, there will always be a moment when the tide is gone.
They must be able to see the promises fulfilled in order to be at ease.
