After coming out of Linjiang Academy, Fu Xiaoguan went to Linjiang Prefecture, where his father would wait for him, and together he went to visit Lord Zhizhou and implement the mining approval.

Sitting in the carriage, Fu Xiaoguan recalled what Qin Bingzhong said just now, he didn't want to see war, everyone longed to live in an era of peace, not to suffer from the war, and not to have the pain of displacement.

However, according to past experience, wars are often not transferred by personal will, and it is always not wrong to take precautions, although those desolate people will not fight to the land north of the river, but they are afraid of the homeless people and those green forest and mountain bandits. Fishing in troubled waters is normal in a society where the law is not yet perfect.

Therefore, he hopes more and more to have a force of his own, and he also hopes more and more to be able to complete the fire faster. Research and application of guns.

There is already fire in this era. medicine, there are also fireworks, Fu Xiaoguan does not know what stage the development of firearms has reached. But according to him on the smelting of iron and fire. The understanding of the medicine workshop is preliminarily estimated to remain in the most primitive fire. The gun stage, that is, the kind that fills once with one shot.

It's about the same as the Song Dynasty in the past, if it's this kind of fire. Guns, it does not mean much in large-scale operations. The firing range is short, the accuracy is low, the filling is slow, the manufacturing cost is still very high, and on the whole there are not many advantages, and the lethality is not as good as that of a bow and crossbow.

It would be nice if the black box came with him, Fu Xiaoguan sighed regretfully.

As for the Shang Guifei and the Ninth Princess that Qin Bingzhong talked about later, if they really wanted to see them, they wouldn't be able to hide from them. Let's see it then, it's a big deal to copy another poem.

He was not surprised by the popularity of A Dream of Red Mansions, and it would be an accident if the book was not welcomed. As for the reputation gained through this book, he didn't pay attention to it, but the pricing of this book made him look at Dong Shulan with admiration.

This is priced according to the chapter, a chapter is five hundred texts, and every time it is updated, she prints the previous chapters together, which is very tricky, many people read the first ten chapters, and they have spent five taels of silver, but they have updated a chapter later, but they need to spend another five taels of silver and five hundred texts...... How much money will I make if I wait for this book to be updated? Fu Xiaoguan is difficult to estimate.

It seems that she will write to Dong Shulan to persuade her later, and the whole book is estimated to be a hundred times, and she will see others as bankrupt!

After thinking about it in a mess, the carriage stopped at the gate of the state capital, and Fu Xiaoguan got out of the carriage and saw that Fu Daguan was already waiting for him here.

"Son, this is Third Master Liu, say hello to Third Master."

Fu Xiaoguan smiled and saluted the middle-aged fat man beside Fu Daguan, and said respectfully: "Hello third master!" ”

"Don't be so angry, Fu Gongzi is now the head of Linjiang talents, not to mention that he has a good heart, just this dream of the Red Mansion is enough to make Fu Gongzi famous all over the world. Come with me and go to the backyard to meet Lord Zhizhou. ”

They walked through the side door.

Walk through a garden, through a promenade, and through a moon gate, and you'll be in the backyard.

It was very quiet, the layout was very simple, and the sun was covered by thick shade, so it went to a little bit of heat.

Liu Zhidong is about fifty years old, his body is thin, his face is slender, his eyelids are a little slack, and at this moment he is sitting in the shade of a tree reading a book, and his eyes seem to be closed.

When the three of them stood in front of him, he raised his head slightly, his eyes opened, and his gaze first fell on Fu Xiaoguan's face, which was quite sharp, but not pressing, this was coercion.

Fu Xiaoguan was still smiling, stepped forward and bowed: "Late Fu Xiaoguan, I have seen Lord Zhizhou." ”

"Hmm......" Liu Zhidong put down the account book in his hand, still looked at Fu Xiaoguan, and asked, "How many times have you written a dream in Red Mansions?" ”

Fu Xiaoguan was stunned for a moment and replied: "It was just a work of leisure in his later life, and now he is quite busy, so he wrote a little less, and it was only the twenty-eighth time." ”

"This book is okay, you can be regarded as earning a great face for my students in the riverside land. But I still want to say that there are many things about children in it, so let's write a little less. Those poems are very good, and that is commendable. Of course, the book was written by you, and I say this only because I am afraid that people will say that you will suffer from it. ”

Fu Xiaoguan bowed again and saluted, "What the adults said is extremely true, and they will naturally pay attention to it in the future." ”

"You can teach." Liu Zhidong took a sip of the teacup, and said: "I have read the mining approval you want, and this seal cannot be stamped by this government for the time being." The government thinks that with your talent and learning, writing books and talking is the way you should go, and mining is a thing that is run by the government, and secondly, it is ...... Have you not been on the wrong path when you are dabbling in it? ”

In this sentence, Liu Zhidong used the self-title of the house, which is the language of officialdom, that is, to get down to business.

When Fu Xiaoguan heard this, he chuckled in his heart, his face did not change in the slightest, and he still smiled: "What the adults said is very true, the late life thinks like this, and the matter of writing books will not be put down, but the later life also wants to make something else." Originally, I had considered selling salt, and I also went to inquire about it, but the salt introduction of Linjiang had already been drained, and this business could not be done. After thinking about it, there is still a part of this mining in the river, so I hope to take this path, and please be accommodating. ”

Liu Zhidong leaned back on the chair, picked up the account book, didn't look at the three of them again, and said lightly: "Let me put this batch of documents here first, I'll think about it again, you go back and wait." ”

"This ......" Fu Daguan was a little anxious, Fu Xiaoguan gently grabbed Fu Daguan and said, "So, Master Lao is bothered." ”

The father and son retreated, and then Liu Sanye also walked out.

Fu Daguan asked, "Is there not enough silver?" ”

Liu Sanye smiled bitterly, "It's not a matter of silver. ”

"Why is that?"

Liu Sanye looked at Fu Xiaoguan and said: "Zhang Zhice's cousin is the concubine of Lord Zhizhou, although she is a concubine, but Lord Liu's mansion respectfully calls her the third lady, which shows that she is very favored by Lord Liu. Last night, Zhang Zhicezhi's ** Zhang Peier came to see the third lady, and now Lord Liu has changed his mind...... Have you ever offended Zhang Peier? ”

What the hell is this!

Fu Xiaoguan patted his forehead and didn't answer, but Liu Sanye saw it, and he said again: "What Lord Liu said is that this batch of documents will be released to him first, this is to keep a hand, and the meaning is also very clear, I can't help you with it or not, it depends on how you deal with it, Xiaoguan." ”

……

"What do you want to do?" In the backyard of Fu's mansion, Fu Daguan asked.

"I didn't expect this little girl to be bad, let's leave it alone, I want to think of something else."

"Zhang Pei'er can do it, what do you want?"

"I don't feel it."

"You kid, when you get out of bed, you turn off the lights and roll in the bed, you naturally feel it, hey......"
