Chapter 449: Lobbying
As soon as Lu Hongyi went out, Yuan Can came back, and Lu Hongyi now almost regarded Yuan Can as his own brother, so he was very happy to see Yuan Can, beckoned to him, and said, "Where did you go, come to see you, you are not here." ”
Yuan Can licked his lips and said with a smile: "I went out to play for a while, what is Brother Hongyi going to do?" ”
"I'm fine, come out and take a walk." Lu Hongyi was originally going to leave, but when he met Yuan Can at this time, he was not in a hurry.
Yuan Can nodded, and was about to go in, Lu Hong grabbed Yuan Can one by one and said, "Don't you talk to me?" ”
Lu Hongyi pulled like this, and Yuan Can remembered what he promised Yuan Han, "I almost forgot, Brother Hongyi, I really have something to do with you." ”
"What's the matter?" Lu Hong glanced at Yuan Can and pointed not far away, meaning to go there and say.
Yuan Can followed, then took out the jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Lu Hongyi, saying, "Brother Hongyi, let's exchange this for you." ”
"Why do you want to give it back to me, isn't this what you have with you?" Lu Hongyi's mind was a little confused, why didn't he want this good one.
Yuan Can almost said that Yuan Han asked him to return it, "Brother Hongyi, in fact, I lied to you, really, the jade pendant fell out when you were drunk that time, I looked good-looking, and I wanted it, so I made a joke with Yuan Zhen, saying that this jade pendant was originally my belonging, but in fact, it was not at all, I just wanted it." ”
"What you say is true?" Lu Hong was suspicious, how could it be like this, obviously the jade pendant he said was his.
Lu Hongyi tried his best to control his emotions. After thinking about it carefully, Yuan Han told him the story of the sisters' rivalry, and then Yuan Can suddenly changed his words and said that the jade pendant was not his, so it seemed that Yuan Han must not want Yuan Can to recognize them.
But they have been looking for Yuan Can for more than ten years, and now they have finally found it, what reason is there not to go back.
"Can'er, do you remember what happened when you were a child?" Lu Hong no longer has the strength to stagnate, he can take a step back from Yuan Han for anything, but Yuan Can cannot.
Yuan Can didn't know what Lu Hongyi meant by asking, but he had no memory of what happened when he was a child. "I don't even remember anything when I was a kid."
"Can't remember anything about it?" Lu Hongyi asked Yuan Can.
Yuan Can shook his head. "I don't remember."
"How could you have forgotten everything, do you remember going out in a carriage when you were a kid or something?" Lu Hongyi still didn't give up, and continued to ask, maybe he could ask something.
Yuan Can smiled. looked at Lu Hongyi inexplicably. "Brother Hongyi, you're so interesting. I don't remember anything about it when I was a kid. ”
"Oh." Lu Hongyi nodded in disappointment and hung his head in frustration.
Yuan Can didn't know why Lu Hongyi was unhappy, but he just handed over the jade pendant in his hand. "Brother Hongyi, give this back to you."
Lu Hongyi looked at the jade pendant in Yuan Can's hand, then looked at the face that looked very similar to him, sighed, stretched out his hand and touched it but did not take it back.
"Brother Hongyi." Yuan Can stretched forward a little more, waiting for Lu Hongyi to take the jade pendant.
Lu Hongyi's hand froze there and it was not a matter of not taking it, but fortunately, at this time, his people happened to come to him, so he had an excuse and said: "I'm busy now, so I won't talk about this for now, and you will return it to my hands in person later." ”
Yuan Can could only watch Lu Hongyi walk away, put the jade pendant in his hand back into his arms, and then went to the shack.
"What are you doing, I'll be back now." Yuan Han glared at Yuan Can, and the jade pendant was not returned.
Yuan Can was a little afraid of Yuan Han's eyes, and explained: "I met Brother Hongyi outside, I said something and then wanted to return his jade pendant, but he refused to ask for it, because he was busy, let me return it to him next time." ”
"Oh." Yuan Han was relieved, in fact, everything is secondary, mainly those words have to be said.
After everyone returned to the city in the afternoon, Yuan Han went to the hot pot restaurant to sit down, and some of the ingredients in it should also be changed.
Cao Lao has been coming to Hong for a while, and he was supposed to live in Luo Jun's house, but Mr. Yuan refused to let him go, so he took the time to go out for a walk today, and he happened to run into it.
"Uncle and Mr. Yuan are here, sit down, we just happen to have dinner." Yuan Han greeted the two old men very warmly.
Cao Lao smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, I really want to." ”
Yuan Han smiled and said, "I've been busy for a while, and I don't have time to see you, but it just so happened that you came." ”
"Yes, by the way, what did Can'er mean when she said that you wanted to open a library?" Cao Lao was originally curious about this.
Yuan Han became interested, pulled Mr. Cao and Mr. Yuan to the inner wing, added some tea, and said, "The idea is there, but it may be a little troublesome to act." ”
"What do you mean?" Cao Lao still didn't quite understand the concept of a library.
Yuan Han explained the library to Yuan Han, and then said, "I don't know what the two elders think. ”
Cao Lao's face was a little bad when he heard this, and he said, "Yuan Han, aren't you selling books?" This is forbidden in Hongdu, don't you know? This is a rule that has been passed down from generation to generation. ”
"Do you think that's a good rule? I don't think it's good anyway, I think it's very limited, a lot of knowledge can't be circulated, good things to share with everyone, why should you collect it for a person. "How could Yuan Han, a person with new thinking, accept such feudal thoughts.
Mr. Yuan said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense. ”
"Mr. Yuan, don't be angry, listen to me, if the country is strong, the people will be safe, but the reverse can also be said that if the people are strong, the country will be strong, the quality of the masses will rise, and the overall quality of the country will rise, just like the two of you, what is the use of only you two sages in the whole Hongdu, can you turn things around? But if there were many learned people in Hongdu, the result would have been different. Yuan Han gave the most appropriate example, although there are Lu Hongyi, Luo Jun and others in this wave, but their questioning attainments are still too far from Cao Lao and Mr. Yuan.
"That's the rule, it's always been like that." Mr. Yuan said very hard, for fear that Yuan Han would not understand.
Yuan Han said: "The rules are set by people, if the rules set hinder the development of the country, can't they just be abolished?" ”
"These rules are beyond the power of you and me." Mr. Yuan's face was very ugly, although he and Cao Lao had also figured out what Yuan Can had relayed before, but it was really too difficult to act.
Yuan Han nodded and said, "I know it's not up to you and me to decide, but if the emperor agrees, it won't be a problem." ”
"How could the emperor agree." Mr. Yuan snorted, and said it too lightly.
"So it's up to you, Mr. Yuan, some things have to be widely circulated, everyone is hiding them, and in the end many good things are gone." Yuan Han is too clear about this point, is there still less technical knowledge of China's lost craftsmanship?
Cao Lao still agrees with Yuan Han's idea in his heart, the current court is actually not very strong, and there are still too many people like the Yu family, because the officials are all donated, and they don't have real talents, and these people only know a lot of money and power when they become officials, and they can't really do things for the people.
Seeing that Mr. Yuan and Yuan Han were more excited, Cao Lao persuaded: "Don't be impatient, everyone, some things have to be taken slowly." ”
"I also know, it's just that what Mr. Yuan said is so absolute that I really can't accept it, because I want to be able to change the status quo." Yuan Han Taidu also softened, because there would be no good results when quarreling.
Cao Lao then said: "Yuan Han, I don't know where you learned your thoughts, but you have to be mentally prepared, it is possible that Mr. Yuan is right, although I also think what you said makes sense." ”
"I know, but I don't know until I try." Yuan Han is a person who does not give up until he reaches his goal, "Uncle, you know me, what I say is something that you don't have in this world, such as numbers, I have no problem if you test me casually, I can calculate it quickly." ”
Mr. Yuan felt that Yuan Han was a little bragging, where is there such a confident person, some things are not to be said in one mouth, just counting it will take a long time, but Mr. Yuan doesn't know that Yuan Han is not using an abacus.
"No, just test me." Yuan Han saw that Mr. Yuan didn't seem to believe it, so he asked Mr. Yuan to ask the question.
Mr. Yuan saw that Yuan Han was so unpolite, so he said: "A person goes to the market to buy a bamboo basket, a bamboo basket costs seven yuan, he buys twenty, and then he uses the bamboo basket he bought to load vegetables, and then sells all the vegetables in the basket, each basket sells for twenty-six yuan, you calculate how much money this person makes." ”
"It's too simple, that person made three hundred and eighty dollars." Yuan Han only came out after a little calculation in his heart.
Mr. Yuan felt that it was not surprising that Yuan Han had calculated it so quickly, and said unconvinced: "This is simple, so let's do it, I'll give you another question, a person has 137,624 taels, first spent 895 taels, and then spent 58,102 taels, and others gave him 300 taels, you calculate how many taels he still has now." ”
Yuan Han almost laughed after listening to Mr. Yuan's so-called problem, she just took a pen out and calculated, "Seventy-nine thousand and twenty-seven taels, this is too simple, I can still calculate the twelve people who gave these more than 70,000 taels to our shop, each of them got six thousand five hundred and eighty-five taels of money, and there is still a little left to be negligible." ”
"Yuan Han, you can eat it." Aunt He was ready to eat and screamed outside. (To be continued......)
