It is said that Jia Cong didn't care about it, relying on the confidence that he didn't know where it came from, he had to hand over the business in Beijing to Zhu Tong, and he patted his ass and ran away. Jia Huan was not very relieved, and ran to Qin Keqing and whispered, "Second sister-in-law Liu, this person is not one of ours." ”

Qin Keqing said with a smile: "I have my own measure, and it doesn't hurt to let him take care of some daily things." ”

Liu Xianglian also tugged her arm and whispered: "I'm just afraid that Mr. Zhu is a fool in his bones, and he will learn our method and pass it on to Bai Lingen in the future." ”

Qin Keqing said: "Those who will pick out Mr. Newton's masterpieces from a pile of serious books to read must not be a conservative person." Besides, I think Cong'er also has the heart to pass on something to others. Liu Aiyun has almost learned there. ”

Jia Huan said: "Brother Liu has known each other for so many years, and he knows each other well. Besides, the Xue family and our family are on the same line. ”

Qin Keqing took a sip of tea: "This is called upstream and downstream." The Xue family is the upstream source and downstream agent distributor of our family and the prince of Beijing, and the Bai family is the logistics port. If the Bai family can improve efficiency, it will be beneficial to our family and the Xue family. Do you see that Cong'er didn't reveal anything about the water solubility? In my opinion, Cong'er's trick is very good. Zhu Tong is finally willing to stay in our family, we have an excellent talent; If he wants to go back to the Bai family, it is also good to bring our management model to the Bai family and integrate the upstream and downstream management methods. If Beringen refuses to use him greatly, he will definitely not be able to stand the grievances on that end and run back sooner or later. If he is willing to use him, he will be the most advanced in the management of the Bai family, and he will be able to hold the power, and Zhu Tong himself must owe us a favor, and he will also have great benefits with us. ”

Zhu Tong was looking at the simple picture frame of the internal process left by Jia Cong not far away, and said with a smile: "Can't you go out and say this?" The voice of the shopkeeper Qin is not small, and the students can't hear it if they want to. ”

Qin Keqing smiled: "They are what they want to tell me, why did I go out?" ”

Zhu Tong Nai said: "Don't say anything else, students will not abandon the master and leave because they can't be reused for a while." ”

Qin Keqing said: "I'm not talking about reuse, you still don't understand it at this time." When you get used to the effective operating model, and then let you use the backward model, you will not be able to stand it. I'm used to being here, and then I can't stand it when I look at the ones in the Liu family's timber shop. You will naturally understand this in the future. ”

Jia Huan pouted: "Sister-in-law, why can't I understand some of the words you said?" ”

Qin Keqing glanced at him: "Didn't you be too lazy to listen to that meeting?" ”

Jia Huan pulled her sleeve: "Good sister-in-law!" Teach me! ”

Liu Xianglian hurriedly said: "She has a body now, and she has to teach Zhu Tong." ”

Jia Huan said: "One sheep is also herded, and two sheep are also driven, so let's go together~~"

Qin Keqing smiled and nodded his forehead: "You have to learn, just follow Mr. Zhu, don't be lazy." ”

Jia Huan nodded repeatedly.

From that day on, he followed Qin Keqing with Zhu Tong. Every day in his spare time, he often talked about "species evolution", "social evolution", and "class change", and slowly poured many truths that Jia Cong smuggled from later generations into Zhu Tong's ears. How did Zhu Tong know what the hell he had planned? It sounds very reasonable, new and interesting, and the more I listen, the more I love to listen.

On the other end, Jia Cong ran back to Taiwan Mansion as if he was playing with his life, and went straight to Xiao without even changing his clothes. Xiangguan, unkempt and unkempt, he didn't stop the reads from knowing the door. In the middle of the road, I met Lin Daiyu and Jia Tanchun standing under the corridor and didn't know what to argue, Jarvis occasionally interjected a sentence to help the shelf, but said: "The three of you pause for a moment and come over together." ”

Daiyu Tanchun didn't pay attention to him, and then he recognized that he came and said in unison: "You came back just in time!" ”

Jia Cong waved his hand without waiting for the two of them to speak: "Come to the creek together, there is something important." ”

Daiyu Tanchun said in unison: "We are also here for important matters!" ”

Jia Cong was helpless, and arched his hand: "Two sisters, let's discuss this first, and then I will say that you guys are good?" Come on, come on! Without waiting for the two of them to speak, they picked up their feet and walked, walking as fast as a gust of wind.

The three of them had no choice but to follow.

There are all kinds of Western fires in Wu Xiaoxi's house. Guns and artillery models and drawings, this time I am discussing with the next person. Jia Cong came in and pointed at the man first: "Pause!" Go and call Gong Kun to come over. ”

Wu Xiaoxi was on fire: "We haven't finished talking yet, what are you suspending for?" Wait in line and wait for us to finish talking. ”

Jia Cong said: "I have to do this! ”

Wu Xiaoxi said: "Why doesn't it matter if it's my business? When he looked up, he saw that the three were coming, and he hurriedly said, "You have come just in time!" Lin Xiangye Lin Shangshu, if my ammunition depot is not completed, when will that broken house be exploded if it is not in order! ”

Lin Daiyu said: "There are already more people who have built ammunition depots for you than there are big sisters!" ”

Wu Xiaoxi said: "You are responsible for the horizontal and vertical explosion!" ”

Lin Daiyu turned her head to look at Jia Cong: "There is not enough manpower!" ”

Jia Cong stomped his feet and said, "The manpower is not enough to add money!" I don't believe that I can't attract people! ”

Daiyu said: "It's easy to say, even if we still have some money, the salary must not be too high." Otherwise, everyone will come to work, and don't you need people to farm? The price of food has to go up again. ”

Jia Cong said: "Buy food from elsewhere!" Our people will take care of you first, and if there is no one to farm, you can put off for a while and buy food from everywhere. What are you afraid of when you have money? ”

Tanchun covered his mouth and coughed heavily.

Jia Cong said: "I was about to discuss money with you, and you are all busy!" That's it, you guys are busy first, I'm about to die all the way back from the capital, go wash up first. Yan then rolled his eyes and ran away.

Several people looked at him and disappeared in the blink of an eye, so they had to look at each other a few times, and then discussed.

Jia Cong was really tired, and when he went back, he saw Jia Yu and went back to the courtyard to bathe, washed and ate half a plate of snacks and a pot of tea, where did he still have the spirit to go out? When he fell asleep in bed, he fell asleep until the next morning. Fortunately, he was young, and after sleeping enough, he was full of energy, and he packed up and rushed to Xiao. Xiangguan to go.

Because she knew that he must have something important to say today, Daiyu ordered everyone to come out early when they had free time, and after a short time, they sat in a full room.

Jia Cong said: "Colleagues, Situ Pan will write to the kings, and discuss state affairs in March of the next year, such as the imperial examination. river control, etc. I have the heart to intervene and provoke them to fight. ”

Everyone's faces changed.

Jia Cong waved his hand: "Westerners are robbing the whole world, and it is only a matter of time before they come to us." Therefore I have the heart to go out to the kings. It's just a matter of grabbing money from Westerners, and it can't be done without firearms. Today, we have two ways to make firearms. One is to buy Westerners. He then looked at Wu Xiaoxi, "Now that the kings still don't understand this, I want to monopolize the firearms sold from the West to our dynasty." ”

Wu Xiaoxi picked the corner of his eyes: "What do you mean, you want to be an arms dealer?" ”

Jia Cong shook his head lightly: "No, no, no." I want to be an arms magnate. If the kings wanted to buy Western firearms, they had to find someone to find out where to sell them. There are probably not many people on their hands who can speak Western. It's not November yet, and there's still some time to go. At this time, we must concentrate on this matter and spread the news among the maritime merchants. As he spoke, he drew a figure on the desk, and everyone looked at it as if there was an unknown thing in a circle.

Jia Cong smiled: "This one inside is an abstract octopus painting. He wrote the words "Hi Claw" on the side. "Today, there is a Western strange merchant, nicknamed Hi Claw, who is familiar with the major Western firearms dealers, and there are all kinds of dragon and snake roads, so he can buy all kinds of Western firearms. This thing is his badge. ”

Daiyu frowned and said, "Why did you choose such a strange name." ”

Jia Cong said: "The weirder it is, the more confusing it is. ”

Daiyu shook her head: "That's it, you have always been weird and weird, horizontal and vertical are just names." ”

Jia Cong continued: "If all the kings have the heart to buy firearms, they must first find someone to find a way, and the prince who has the heart to fight must be rich. If you have money, you have a big heart, and if you have a big heart, you want the best firearms. Vigorously beat the name of Hi Claw, even if it only collects a profit of one percent, it is enough for us to earn. ”

Xiaoxi nodded: "Understood." It may not work out, you can try. It's just that Westerners are willing to sell firearms to you and beat themselves? ”

Jia Cong smiled and squeezed his eyes: "Don't worry! They will. "The other way is to make your own fire. Utensil. Western firearms are now stronger than ours. I know that some firearms in the previous dynasty were stronger than those of Westerners, but I couldn't find the drawings. I've already asked Luo Tainiang in Jingzhong to get it. We also have to go faster on our own side of the R&D process. ”

Yuan Chun said: "This matter will not be done overnight. ”

Jia Cong said: "Concentrate manpower first. ”

Yuan Chun said indifferently: "People are really limited, you can't become a fat man by eating one bite, you should go to Jingzhong to make the drawings more reliable." ”

Jia Cong was helpless and shrugged his shoulders. After everyone discussed it again, Daiyu asked him if he had anything to do, and he said, "Although our affairs are all important now, we must also come out one of them." ”

Immediately the eyes of the people lit up.

Jia Cong said: "The first thing that matters is where the big sister is." The third sister, anyone's money can be moved, and the decision to cultivate talents cannot be moved. ”

Tanchun looked at him: "Where can I move?" ”

Jia Cong said: "Now the only way to do agriculture is to start farming. There is a shortage of people everywhere, but farming is only for food. Grain can be used to buy first. But when the people find that they have little money to buy grain and more money to work, they will naturally go to work instead of growing grain. Rather we subsidize it, we have to lower the price of food in the market. ”

Lin Daiyu frowned and said, "This is not a long-term solution. ”

Jia Cong pointed at Yuan Chun and said, "Big sister, there is the long-term solution." The development of science and technology, the improvement of agricultural tools, and the production of mechanical things, so that farming no longer requires so much labor. ”

Yuan Chun said: "You said at first that the steam engine was the most important thing, and after two days, you said that the telegraph was the most important thing, and then the alternator became the most important thing two days later. Now there's another farm implement. What is most important? You have to make a sequence. Besides, we're not rich here, and I can't get that many people at once. ”

Jia Cong said: "The steam engine is the most important, the telegraph is second, and the next one is reads;." The steam engine was directly connected to the steamship and the farm vehicle. What happened to Jenny Looms? ”

Yuan Chun said: "This is quite easy. According to what you said last time, it didn't take long for a few masters to get the prototype ready. ”

Jia Cong nodded: "Give me the picture and prototype, I will take it to the capital to sell in March." As for the people, I have a lot of adults in the court, and the skillful craftsmen are hidden in the people, and I have asked Uncle Jia to ask Ma Xing to pay more attention to the collection. Craftsmen are not very valued by the imperial court, and it is easier to dig people up in the West than to go to the West. "Over there," he thought for a moment, "there is an English man named James Watt, who is quite gifted, and must try to get it." ”

Gong Kun said: "Didn't you bother the Xue family's fleet to inquire about the Western gentleman who did science the year before last?" I already have a list. He looked at Yang Heng, "General Yang, I'm afraid that I have to take a trip to the West by yourself." ”

Yang Heng smiled and said, "Please?" ”

Liu Feng said: "Since it is an extremely important person, it is okay to tie it up." You are a pirate. ”

Yang Heng clenched his fists: "Get the order of the military general!" ”

Liu Feng said: "When you come back, about the fourth girl and General Wu will also come back." When the time comes, General Wu will take a look, and only say that he caught the wrong person and saved those Western gentlemen. ”

Xiaoxi blinked and said, "Since the wrong person was arrested, aren't they going to go back to China?" ”

Liu Feng said: "If you catch the wrong person, you will naturally release them on the spot, can they still reason with the pirates?" They have no money, they have no power, and they don't understand what we say. I've traveled all the way to the West, and I don't go to the big girls to make some money, where can they go back? Besides, Miss Lin is only building a Chengtian Port at this time, and when it is built, it is also a military port, which belongs to the naval envoy. We don't have a commercial port on this island for the time being, so they have to find a ship if they want to go back, right? ”

The crowd laughed. Gong Kun pointed at Liu Feng and said with a smile: "At this table, you and Weiss look at the most honest, he is really honest, you are fake and honest." ”

Liu Feng said seriously: "I am also honest, it is the responsibility of a strategist to give ideas for the lord, just like Western gentlemen do practical yàn, purely technical, and has nothing to do with conduct." ”

The crowd laughed again.

Jia Cong Nai asked: "Mr. Gong, does Lin Xiangye have anything else to do?" ”

Gong Kun and Daiyu both said "yes", and then discussed the matter for a long time.

When the scene was over, everyone was cleaning up their things on the desk, and Jia Cong suddenly shouted: "Ah, that's right! ”

Everyone was stunned.

"I went to my father this morning to say goodbye, he said, our events are all priorities, he doesn't care about the side, but the eldest sister is not too young to get married, this is the No. 1 priority in Tianzi. He ordered me to mention it in passing. I mentioned it. Meeting! He snapped his high-five, shouted and stretched, got up and went out first.

And they all said, "It has nothing to do with me." Then they picked up their belongings and fished out.

Jia Cong said loudly outside again: "Hey, bachelors are listening~~ Red. I have all figured out the household registration of my sister and sister, and they are now free and good citizens of the capital, and if they want to propose marriage as soon as possible, they will be snatched away by others when it is late, and the dowry is rich~~~"

Red. The sleeves were guarding outside the door, and they immediately blushed when they heard the words. The crowd was again making a loud noise outside.

Only Gong Kun was left in the house, and a large pile of copywriting was still being organized, and Jia Yuanchun was still working on the list. Jia Cong, the bear child of the Red Mansion
