Chapter 45: Wang Leyu's brother
"Then, what should I do?" Wang Leyu asked almost subconsciously. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The day when the minerals are depleted is the end of the rule of the wooden house. This is the second time she has heard of this theory, and her brother often talks to her about this problem, that is, because of this problem in Mufu, the family has repeatedly persuaded her not to marry into Mufu.
The Wang family finally failed to prevent her from marrying into Mufu, because she had already fallen hopelessly in love with Mu Shang, and fell in love with the Mufu concubine who even had a problem with her own survival, but did everything for her family and country.
She always knew in her heart that he had never fought for the position of Tusi for himself, but for the millions of civilians living in Lijiang to live and work in peace and contentment, and he wanted to prove to the world that the meaning of Mufu's existence was not just to help the Yong Dynasty fight.
He hopes that Mufu will become truly strong, as strong as an independent country, and not be a dispensable pawn of the Yong Dynasty.
Therefore, Mu Fu's future way out is not only Mu Shang's heart disease, but also her heart disease.
"It's not that hard to do. Shen Lanying said with a smile, "If a country wants to be strong, in addition to the military, it must first have strong economic strength. The minerals dug up by Mufu are directly exchanged for currency, which is actually not cost-effective. The correct approach is to fill in the abandoned pits, build boilers on the site, and directly develop Mufu's own iron-smelting industry. The veins are continuous, so the distance between the new mine and the iron smelting line must be very close, which greatly facilitates the transportation process. At the same time, you no longer need to buy high-priced ironware from merchants, and you can even sell your goods to the Western Regions. How can there be a reason why the people's strength should not be enhanced?"
Developing an iron-smelting industry near the mining area? Wang Leyu listened to Shen Lanying's story, and her eyes suddenly lit up, this kind of development method was something her brother had never told her.
"How is it, is this a good idea?" asked Shen Lanying with a smile.
"That's great, but it's hard to actually do. Wang Leyu muttered, "The introduction of iron-smelting technology and the construction of iron-smelting plants require a lot of expenses. ”
"The current consumption is small, and the future income is large, which may not be reflected in ten years, but in another ten years, the development of Lijiang will definitely be amazing. What Mufu needs is long-term benefits. ”
Wang Leyu looked at Shen Lanying with admiration, "Your Highness, Le Yu's brother also said this, but it is not as in-depth as what you said. ”
"Your brother?" asked Shen Lanying.
In this way, the content of the conversation between the two deviated from the original trajectory.
"Your Highness, you are a brother who has never seen Le Yu, he is a god, he can immediately write a particularly good poem when he points to a scenery or an event, and it is no problem to say five words or seven words. I don't know if you've heard of him? His name is Wang Banxian. When Wang Leyu mentioned his brother, he had a bright smile on his face, obviously proud of his brother.
Shen Lanying was suddenly blinded.
What is his name? Wang Banxian'er? His father is called Wang Daochang, and his son is called Wang Banxian? How can the name of this Wang family really have a future!
Moreover, she didn't have any impression at all, this is not right, the Wang family's genealogy Sikong Yan has made her memorize! How could such a strange name not be remembered?
Wang Leyu suddenly reacted and said, "Oh, let me forget, that's his real name, his name is Yichen, and outsiders call him Wang Yichen because his real name is too strange." ”
Shen Lanying suddenly remembered such a number one person, "Oh! I remember him, when my father asked him to participate in the imperial examination with a group of candidates, he won the first place in the palace examination in one fell swoop. It's a pity to think about it now, if I wasn't too young to understand at that time, I would have gone over to meet such a person in person. ”
About Wang Yichen, it is indeed quite legendary, the Wang family has been an official for generations, but when he was five years old, he threatened that he wanted to travel all over the world and be a swordsman who robbed the rich and helped the poor, and acted chivalrous and righteous.
After becoming an adult, Wang Yichen became more and more famous because of his poetry, so big that his reputation reached the ears of Emperor Yonghui. Emperor Hui had a whim, sent him into the capital, and asked him to participate in the palace examination with all the candidates, wanting to see what level this legendary figure was.
Then the legendary deeds appeared, as soon as the title of Emperor Yonghui was read, Wang Yichen's rigorous argumentation and eloquent prose blurted out, and the words were shocking, crushing all the intellectuals in the capital, including all the enshrinements of the "Hanlin Academy".
Of course, Yongguo is relatively free-thinking, at least Emperor Yonghui did not forcibly let Wang Yichen stay in the capital as an official, but rewarded him with many treasures and let him go.
The reason why Shen Lanying remembers his affairs so clearly is because Wang Yichen has a good friendship with Sikong Yan.
"Your Highness doesn't have to feel sorry. Wang Leyu said with a smile, "Actually, my brother sent someone to send me a letter a while ago, and the letter mentioned that the princess will pass through the south, and he said that he especially wanted to meet the world-famous Princess Zhaoying." ”
Alas, it's a pity, the princess Zhaoying you want to see is dead.
Shen Lanying silently mourned for those who admired Princess Zhaoying.
She and Wang Leyu walked around the back garden, and the sun was gradually setting in the west. Wang Leyu was afraid that Shen Lanying would be thirsty after wandering around for so long, so he thought about giving her that little tea, but the surrounding maids had already been sent away, so Wang Leyu returned to the house in person.
In fact, she shouldn't have left Shen Lanying here alone, but Shen Lanying seemed to suddenly become interested in the plants in the flower garden, staring at it non-stop, Wang Leyu simply went back to the residence to get tea first.
As Wang Leyu's footsteps faded away, Shen Lanying silently put down the buds held up by her fingertips and stretched her waist widely.
Really, she has been to the Flower Grand View Garden in the imperial capital several times, what plants have she never seen? How could the back garden of Mufu attract her, she let Wang Leyu go back alone, just to stay alone for a while.
Continuing to walk along the gravel road, Shen Lanying thought about the troubles she might face in the future, while aimlessly admiring the familiar but unnamed plants around her. She walked alone, and before she knew it, she came to the end of the yard.
There is nothing here, just an earthen wall about two meters high, which stretches far away. There are ivy-like plants crawling on the walls. Just as Shen Lanying was about to return the way she came, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of green on the wall out of the corner of her eye.
It is a fruit tree, and if you look closely, you will find that the branches and leaves have been pruned.
