Back in the house, Yuyan smelled the wine early, hurriedly called someone to the inner kitchen to ask for some sobering soup, and helped the drunk Liu Yu into the house.

"Mrs. sent someone just now, saying that since you went to the Mansion of Qi to eat and drink, you don't need to go to her to see her this night. Just let you rest early, don't be greedy for cold, and cover the quilt at night. ”

He also told him that since he had eaten crabs, he should never eat persimmons again. Mrs. said that she should not go out to eat and drink these days, she should cultivate better, and she will go to school in Wude Palace in a few days, and she can go there to accompany her tomorrow. ”

Yuyan conveyed these concerns from her mother while serving Liu Yu and taking off her clothes full of alcohol.

It was indeed a bit too much to drink at Tian Ping's, and Liu Yu forgot whether he had said more things to Tian Ping at the wine table that he shouldn't have said.

I can't remember it clearly, but I'm in a good mood.

At the very least, it can be seen that the Taixing Emperor of the Great Shun Dynasty seems to be a pioneer, not so muddy, and at a loss in the upcoming three thousand years of great changes.

He didn't pay too much attention to the ban on religion.

As the saying goes, without Zhang Butcher, you still eat pork.

The Jesuit group had to preach, and the Holy See was biting on the issue of etiquette, and if they couldn't help it, there would be ghosts.

The ban on religion does not mean that communication with the West has been cut off. Not to mention that the Thirty Years' War has been fought, a large number of Protestant countries only think about doing business, and have little interest in missionary affairs, that is, in the Catholic Church, there is a big filial son France.

It was a Catholic country that could arrest the pope and play with it, and it was difficult to break the exchange with China. In the past, there were several academicians of the French Academy of Sciences among the missionaries sent by France, saying that they were missionaries, but in fact they were more to seize the position of the Jesuits.

In my memory, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which was closed in the previous life, also continued to communicate with France. Even Emperor Jiaqing sent a congratulatory gift to Napoleon, the first dispute in France, and the ivory miniature carved Fenyang Palace's birthday wat was full of beds.

On the way, this congratulatory gift was taken away by a British warship and returned to France, when "Your Majesty will arrive today in his faithful Paris." And this ivory miniature carving was also given to the ruling wife Josephine, Guo Ziyi, the king of Fenyang, had many sons and grandchildren, and he couldn't remember the names of his children and grandchildren when he celebrated his birthday, which was a good jackpot, but when this gift was actually delivered to Napoleon, it seemed quite embarrassing - not to mention that there were many sons and grandchildren, Josephine ...... I can't give birth to half of it.

Taking this as a lesson, we can also know. Banning Christianity is not the same as severing communication with the West.

The key is how to communicate?

Religion is also forbidden in Japan next door, but Lanxue has always existed, and at the time of the Black Ship Incident, the country had been locked off for 300 years, and a large number of samurai who knew Dutch could still be captured to be interpreters.

Liu Yu did not have a good impression of Catholicism, although it must be admitted that the missionaries represented by Matteo Ricci did start the trend of learning from the East to the West, and the half volume of "Geometric Originals" alone was enough to support the name of a "Lizi".

But now that the Jesuits are decaying and culturally aggressive, it is better to ban them.

I just don't know how to continue to maintain exchanges with the West after Dashun bans Christianity? To what extent can we communicate?

I am afraid that this depends not only on the emperor, but also on the pressure exerted by the Jiangnan gentry in the court, and the stress reaction caused by the Fujian teaching plan, I don't know how far it will go.

These things, Liu Yu is soft-spoken at this time, and it is useless to say it, only to find a way to climb up.

Fortunately, today in the Mansion of Qi State, after writing "A Brief Examination of Western Kingdoms" in a few days, he should be able to simplify in the emperor's heart.

In addition, the family background is enough, and among the group of gentlemen in the Wude Palace, it can be regarded as the big one, and there is still a chance.

When he was drinking with Tian Ping, Liu Yu thought of a way.

This method can be famous, and it can be said that it is known to the capital after it is used; You can also test the bottom line of the Great Shun Dynasty and the ability to accept new things, and it is also convenient for you to plan your own future.

It is the monarch who chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the king.

If Dashun doesn't even dare to accept new things, it shows decay.

Then it is better to sweep away some of the family's money, give up the identity of the Guogong Mansion, and go to Nanyang to do a career.

If you want to be famous, and as soon as you become famous, you must be known in the capital, and it must be a new thing, Liu Yu thought of a hot air balloon.

As long as that thing flies, the capital will know about it, and the palace will shook.

There is nothing more romantic than flying into the sky, and there is nothing more strange and ingenious than flying into the sky, this thing is enough to test the reaction of the imperial court.

The worst result is nothing more than tricks, snooping on the forbidden palace, being beaten, and having the merits of his ancestors and not dying, it is nothing more than a cheat.

Winning proves that Dashun can at least accept new things, the emperor is enlightened, and he can become famous quickly.

Lost, Dashun is rotten, can't accept new things, the emperor is a bastard, it's a big deal to break his family and run away, and go to Nanyang to do something career.

As for Daddy? It's only been a day, and I don't have so many feelings.

Thinking of this, he called the swift who was serving beside him and said, "Now the place is not locked. You go to those and ask for something. ”

"What's the matter?"

"You go and ask what the price of silk and silk in the capital is?"

Swift is a big girl, she grew up in the house since she was a child, and she has no relatives, and things like silk and satin are bought by people, and she has never been out of the house. But there are still some servants in the house, and they know the price.

She didn't know what it was for, and she felt strange, but she didn't ask much. With the lantern in hand, he went to the place where he was staying, and returned in less than two quarters of an hour.

"Yes. Shanxi's Lu silk, a horse is one or two eight dollars; The silkworm blue satin in Liaodong is one or two seven coins. The rest of Hangzhou satin, Japanese satin, Shu brocade or something, are all expensive and scary. What is the third master going to do? ”

"Play."

I replied casually, I don't know which one is suitable for this silk or green satin?

"You take some money tomorrow, go over there and call someone out, and pull a horse for me, and I'll take a look."

"Yes."

On weekdays, Liu Yu doesn't touch money, he has no interest in money, and the money in the house is taken care of by swifts.

She didn't know what Liu Yu was going to do, thinking that Liu Yu was joking, but it was just a joke, so she responded.

Pulling his fingers and calculating, a hot air balloon with a diameter of 40 meters, unfolded and calculated the surface area, there are 5,000 square meters.

Simple formula.

Scary data.

The size of a silk horse is four zhang long, one foot eight wide, and the area of a silk horse is only eight square meters.

With 5,000 square meters of silk cloth, you can know that you need at least 600 silk horses for this plan.

In addition, a certain amount of alum is required to soak a portion of the silk for fire protection.

Add to that the amount of grease used for combustion, and that's another amount of money.

Just hit the cheapest silk and green satin, and it is estimated that it will cost a thousand taels?

I don't have much money on weekdays, I go to school in Wude Palace, and the court gives me some rice, but that's not enough for me to go out for a meal on weekdays. The family gave him a monthly sum of five taels of silver a month, food and clothing were all in the house, and pen, ink, paper, inkstone, car, horse, gun and medicine were also taken to the family's public account.

The mother felt sorry for this little son to give some more occasionally, but the money was enough to spend on weekdays, but the problem was that she really had to take out 1,800 taels of silver at once, and it didn't seem to be enough.

Seeing Liu Yu pulling his fingers there, muttering the amount of money in his mouth, Yuyan asked, "The third master wants money?" ”

"Uh-huh. How much cash is in the house? ”

"Sixty-three taels." Swift is like a few treasures, and said: "On weekdays, the third master treats people generously, and some girls borrow money to gamble, and the girls still have seventy or eighty taels in their hands." ”

Sixty seventy plus seventy eighty, one hundred and fifty taels?

"Why?"

"Tell me more. The third master spends money lavishly on weekdays, and when he jokes, others grabs a handful of money and rewards him, but the third master rewards silver. The third master has no input, but there are some monthly silvers every month, and Wude Palace sends some more every month, but it is not much. On weekdays, the third master is good to buy some Xiyi things, how can he keep silver between his fingers? ”

In retrospect, it was just as well. I am good to the girls on weekdays, and I am used to spending money lavishly, although the things I use are all high-quality goods, but there is no way to turn them into cash.

This is a little different from the thousand taels I need?

"Third master, if you really use money...... You can go to your wife and embezzle some. But if it is misappropriated, it is best to mention it in front of the eldest grandmother and the second grandmother. If you don't go and tell your wife quietly, your wife feels sorry for you, but you are afraid that the wall has ears, and when the time comes, someone will listen to it and chew your tongue. ”

The eldest grandmother and the second grandmother in the language mouth, that is, Liu Yu's two sisters-in-law.

In the previous life, he was an ordinary family, but at least his brother and sister-in-law still understood the affairs of the family.

Swift means to borrow money, don't borrow it secretly, say it in front of the two sisters-in-law, so as not to chew your tongue when you get it.

The youngest son secretly instigated his mother's money, and the eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law will definitely make a fuss if they know about it, which is a simple truth.

Thinking that he has to "wake up in the morning" every day, the two sisters-in-law also have to serve their mother to eat, in addition to the money in the public account, the mother has private money and dowry, and it seems that this money is also very easy to solve.

Damn, the prince is cool, at least he doesn't have to worry about money. Although his own money is all the blood and sweat of farmers in fiefdom manors, or the flesh and blood of usury, I don't know how many people have been killed, but it is really refreshing to have money to spend.

Uh-huh, I couldn't help but feel good. In a good mood, he pulled his throat and howled two sentences of the word card of "Chaoyanggou".

"Joseph, sit down, let's talk from our hearts, and know that after you get married, you will marry Mary. She got pregnant without crossing the door, and she knows that you have concerns in your heart. Who is the father of the child, you can't sleep every day and night......"

When he was singing to the end, he stretched out his hand and slapped the swift standing next to the bed.

After the crisp sound, the swift trembled, but she didn't dare to scream, for fear that a few girls outside would hear it.

"Sleep!"

Liu Yu was satisfied, rubbed his fingers, turned his head and fell asleep.

Only the red-faced swift was left standing beside the bed, at a loss.

His heart was pounding, he was holding a gauze towel to wipe his sweat in his hand, his hands were a little white, and he bit his lip, as if he was recalling the crisp sound just now, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

I just think that when the third master came back from eating wine this morning, something was wrong, and it was strange to look at his eyes, which would never be like this before.

I have long been looking forward to the water coming to fruition, and I have already sat down on the seat of this girl in the room, which can be regarded as having a future to rely on.

I had also heard those older women say a lot of things about their red faces, and they didn't understand it, but they couldn't pull their faces down.

Today is an opportunity, it seems that the third master is in a good mood, and he is enjoying the wine.

It's just that these few days are not the right time for me, but I'm afraid that after these few days, I won't have a chance......

I was ashamed, anxious, and chaotic, like a small insect crawling from the place where I was photographed just now.

I don't know how many times the scarf in my hand has been wrapped, and finally I put down the sand tent lightly, retreated, and stared at the lights and candles outside in a daze.
