At the end of April, Zhao Defang's charter was finally finalized, and after it was presented to the emperor, the emperor immediately approved it. In less than three days, more than half of the people in the capital knew that the official family was going to gather people to start repairing the history books.

Of course, they definitely don't have a chance to repair books, that is, they follow the chores and learn to learn. These ten places are in the hands of Zhao Defang, the king of Chu.

As a result, the palace became lively in an instant, and the people who came to see Zhao Defang were one after another. The number of posts received in the past three days is the total number of posts in the past three months. Zhao Defang didn't care about it, and handed it all over to Jiao Wanwan. Jiao Wanwan was a little embarrassed, thinking about it, she pushed it all away, anyway, Zhao Defang was busy, and she didn't have time to see her, Jiao Wanwan's excuse was also ready-made, she was pregnant, and she couldn't work hard.

At the beginning of May, Zhao Defang made it clear that he wanted these ten places, yes, but he had to participate in the competition. He is also not favoritism, and all students in the world, as long as they want to, can participate in fair competition.

As soon as the news came out, the whole capital became lively. By the way, Jiao Wanwan also made money. Zhao Defang originally said that her bus couldn't make a lot of money, but she didn't expect that she could have dozens of taels of silver every day.

When Zhao Defang was busy with the competition, Jiao Wanwan was looking at the account book and smiling, striking while the iron was hot, the big guys already knew the storage of the bus at this time, so by the way, they would develop a few more routes. By the way, the bus stop signs should also get a few more, it is best to stick a copy at the city gate, which car takes which route, where to stop, what time will there be, and it is also convenient for the people who enter and leave the city.

"I didn't expect to make a lot of money." Zhao Defang glanced at her account book, was a little surprised, and asked, "How many routes are you going to open now?" ”

"Eight, adding up to fourteen, we didn't often go out shopping before, I calculated, some places have more people to go, some places have fewer people, more places have to arrange a few more routes, and places with fewer people will arrange less. You say, if I give you another idea to make money and let the court take charge, will the official write me a reward? ”

Jiao Wanwan suddenly thought of a good idea, and Zhao Defang raised her eyebrows: "It depends on what a good idea is and how much money you can make." Furthermore, what reward do you want? ”

"Isn't that what I meant for our son? Your title can only be given to Wo Ran, but we don't have only one son, are we? So, I want to plan more for them. Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, Zhao Defang stretched out his hand and nodded her forehead: "You, think too much, just a way to make money, where can you let the official family give a knighthood, if the title is easy to earn, then you still use desperate work to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions?" If it is enough to make money, then wouldn't the merchants just have to give all their property to the official family? Think less about this uselessness, rest well when you are free, and strive to have another white and chubby girl. ”

Jiao Wanwan pursed her lips: "It also depends on how much you can earn, and whether you can bring a good reputation to the imperial court." Merchants make a lot of money, but who can say that they are all working hard for the people? My idea is to make the people grateful and make the court make money, not to mention much, at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year! In three or five years, millions of taels have passed, how much silver can the treasury get in a year? ”

Zhao Defang couldn't help but be surprised: "Hundreds of thousands a year? What business is so profitable? ”

Look at her ledger: "You don't want to drive this bus business all over the country, do you?" ”

"Of course not." Jiao Wanwan pursed her lips, don't look at what she said on her face, she was quite confident, but she was also a little bottomless in her heart. Logistics is indeed very profitable in modern times, but first of all, there is that condition, a large population, the country's population of more than one billion, is dozens of times better than the Great Song Dynasty, or even nearly a hundred times. Second, in fact, this condition should be said to be the most important, because before this condition, the logistics industry was not very developed. There is online shopping in modern times, and the Great Song Dynasty even had to have a pass to enter and exit the capital.

So Zhao Defang didn't believe it, and Jiao Wanwan didn't dare to mention it, so she laughed dryly: "No, but if it's this, maybe it can work." Why don't we also get a sea trade caravan? This also makes money. ”

Zhao Defang frowned slightly: "The official family has the meaning of forbidding the sea." ”

Jiao Wanwan's hair was about to stand on end: "Why?" ”

"The Japanese invaded ......" Zhao Defang paused before saying, Jiao Wanwan frowned, this is another reason. The Ming and Qing dynasties also said that the forbidden sea was to prevent aggression, and on the surface, it did have a certain effect, but in fact, the danger was far greater than the benefit.

Seeing Jiao Wanwan frowning, Zhao Defang raised her eyebrows: "But what do you think is wrong?" ”

"Naturally, it is inappropriate, closing the country and shutting down the country, resting on one's laurels, and banning the sea is the root cause at all." Jiao Wanwan said indignantly, looking at Zhao Defang: "If the official family really wants to propose a ban on the sea, you will definitely oppose it to the end." ”

"You talk about it first, what good can it do if you can't help the sea." Zhao Defang asked with a smile, and poured Jiao Wanwan a cup of tea. Looking at her own Wanniang, she seems to be very slow about things in the court, but sometimes what she says is really interesting.

It's like, it's a summed up history.

This sentence flashed in his head, and Zhao Defang seemed to have caught something. In contrast, future generations can always sum up the history of the previous dynasty, draw lessons and lessons, and continue good policies. Wan Niang seems to be able to sum up lessons and lessons, and what she summarized, it seems, not all of them were before the Tang Dynasty, it seems that many of them are things that she didn't know.

I don't know, does that mean that it is from the later dynasties, after the Great Song Dynasty?

Zhao Defang felt that his heart was about to stop beating, was it really after the Great Song Dynasty? So, where did Wan Niang come from? The world that is similar to the Great Song Dynasty is still the world after the Great Song Dynasty. In heaven and earth, there is always a source, right?

"Of course, there are benefits, one is to develop the economy, the economy is developed, the people are rich, and the society can develop better. To be a Ming monarch, the first thing you have to do is for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, right? Second, what is overseas, we can know for the first time, if the overseas development is better than ours, then we can learn immediately, if the overseas development is not as good as ours, then we can earn more money from them, maybe we can collect a few subject countries without going to war in the future? ”

Jiao Wan muttered and said, I was about to say that I was excited, there are many words, Zhao Defang has never heard of them, but before and after contacting, I can still guess a little bit of meaning.

"Am I talking too much?" After talking for a long time, seeing that Zhao Defang kept smiling and looking at her, without saying a word, Jiao Wanwan blinked, and then recalled what she just said, and immediately had the urge to escape, but just now she didn't have a brain!

Is it really a stupid three years of pregnancy? This is the first time! I reminded myself early in the morning that I had to be careful when I spoke, and I had to think about it, but as a result, every time I got excited, I forgot about it, and now it's okay, and there are more flaws, right?

"No, it makes sense, I'm listening." Zhao Defang said with a smile, reaching out to poke her cheek: "Say more?" ”

Jiao Wanwan smiled dryly, her eyes rolled a few times flexibly: "That, I suddenly can't remember, it's all said by others, I forgot which book I saw it from, it seems that I saw it when I was very young, and I probably couldn't find it, I knew it was useful, I should have kept it." ”

Zhao Defang couldn't help laughing, this girl has learned to find excuses to cover up.

"Our family Wanniang is smart, she likes to read books since she was a child, even such boring books." Zhao Defang smiled and appreciated: "Although you don't like to read this kind of book very much now, it is also very beneficial to read it occasionally, and you should read less books, don't buy these books in the future, okay?" ”

Jiao Wanwan cried with a sad face, it was already miserable without a computer, and she was not even allowed to read the script?

"You still have to read the script, maybe you can see a little bit of it?" Jiao Wanwan retorted weakly, Zhao Defang touched her chin and hesitated for a while: "Okay, I can still read the script." ”

looked at Jiao Wanwan and said meaningfully: "Sometimes, I wonder if my Wanniang is a fairy daughter from heaven, sometimes she knows a lot and is smarter than others, and sometimes, she seems to know nothing, like a child." ”

Jiao Wanwan's face turned pale, and Zhao Defang hurriedly said: "But no matter what Wanniang looks like, I like it." ”

"What, don't think nonsense, I'm just an ordinary person, I understand a lot because I like to read miscellaneous books, I don't understand anything because I am impatient to learn this, and my father and mother are spoiled, so I ......" explained a few words dryly, and immediately changed the topic: "It's time for Hua Rong to wake up now, and now he learns to say two words again, do you want to listen to it?" ”

Zhao Defang nodded with a smile: "Okay, then listen, if you are bored at home, you will take the Chinese herb to go outside, he is a boy, you don't have to be bored in the house all day, it is good to go out for a walk." ”

After a pause, he said, "I'll take him out for a walk at night, will you go?" ”

Jiao Wanwan was a little frightened just now, although she had settled down at this moment, her heart was still pounding, and she waved her hand hurriedly: "I won't go, the month is old, it's not good to walk around outside, you should be more careful with yourself with the Lotus Root, and bring a few more guards, now the Lotus Root is fat, and you are afraid that you will be tired if you hold it all the way." Don't let him eat too much of the things outside, it's hard to digest when he's young, and it's easy to get upset when he eats too much at night. ”

As he spoke, he asked the nurse to hug the nurse and watched the father and son play with a smile: "Don't play too late, come back early." Since you are going out at night, will you use dinner at home or outside? ”

Zhao Defang protected the lotus with one hand, and while watching him walk back and forth on the soft couch, he talked to Jiao Wanwan: "It's in the house, otherwise we will all go out, you eat alone, I'm afraid you'll be picky again, I'll let you eat a few more bites here, what do you want to eat at night?" Last time, I said I wanted to eat beef, I deliberately made people pay attention, and finally bought some back, otherwise, eat beef noodle soup? ”
