After the earth-shattering uproar, Chen Zhengtai died down for a while.

In fact, the entire Chen family has been anxious, not because of the scolding war and fine porcelain.

But at this moment, the research institute of the University Hall and Erpigou Jianye here sent a large number of people to explore outside the Guan.

Prairie ...... The Chen family established a lonely city in Shuofang, relying on the financial resources of the Chen family, this Shuofang was finally a lot more lively, and with the laying of wooden rails, Shuofang became more and more prosperous.

In this place, there are already 50,000 households.

A large number of people noticed that the days in the depths of the grassland were far more comfortable than those in the Guannai.

Most of the people in the customs do not have land, and even if they do, this land is limited, although it is changed to new grains, it is just enough for an old snack to drink.

But in the grassland, the reclamation order has been issued, a large amount of land has been turned into grain fields, and the same Yongye field policy has been implemented in the Kannai, but it is ...... The conditions are much broader, no matter who comes to Shuofang, they will provide 300 acres of land as Yongye land.

Even...... Grain breeds, pig breeds, chickens are also available.

Not only that, but there are also a large number of pastures here, so that the price of meat is much cheaper than that of Kannai.

The Chen family has invested a lot of construction here, and because of the lack of manpower, the salary of the craftsmen is more than double that of the Guannei.

According to some estimates, if you add the population of various gathering areas and pastures, the household registration of the Han people has reached 80,000 in a place outside the Guan.

The Chen family has begun to set an example, half of them have begun to migrate to the depths of the grassland, and a large number of people have also piled up a large amount of grain and surplus meat in the barns in Shuofang City, because they can't eat it for a while, so they have to be pickled as a reserve. Countless furs are also continuously transported into the customs.

In Shuofang, a large number of copper and iron ore and coal mines have been excavated, especially coal, the quality is much better than that of Juxian, and the quality of iron ore is also incredible.

Thereupon...... Along this area, the later Ordos, a city once famous for its mineral outputs, has now begun to build one workshop after another, using wooden rails to connect with the city.

Of course, there are many people who have difficulty having faith here.

After all, many people know that this is the prosperity brought by the Chen family, and the wealth accumulated by the Chen family in the customs is continuously transmitted to Shuofang, such development is only temporary, and when the wealth of the Chen family is exhausted, the good days outside the customs will naturally end.

There are many people who think this way.

Can ...... now All the Chen family, as well as the people in the research institute, have been tossed by Chen Zhengtai and are afraid.

A large number of geological surveys began outside the Guan, and at the same time, the latest maps were drawn up differently, and a large number of people were sent to explore the situation of various parts of the grassland.

Meanwhile...... An ambitious plan is on Chen's desk.

The wooden rail still needs to be laid, but it is no longer to connect Shuofang and Chang'an, but to Shuofang as the center, laying a horizontal wooden rail about a thousand miles long, this track, starting from Daijun in Hebei, has continued to the border of Tubo.

In order to secure the project, a lot of labor is required, and at the same time, it is necessary to ensure that there is no destruction of the grassland along the way.

Not only that, but the wooden track from Chang'an to Shuofang has begun to be overwhelmed because of the increasing frequency of exchanges, so it ...... There are two options at the moment, one is to continue to lay new wooden tracks and add lines. The other option is very violent, laying the rails directly.

The institute has blown up, crazy ...... There are too many problems here, where does Datang have so much steel, and even extravagance to lay this steel on the ground.

How can we ensure that this steel is so valuable, that such a valuable thing will not be destroyed?

In addition to this, steel rails were laid, but they were used to transport horse-drawn carts, so ...... When will the cost be paid for?

In addition, there are many other problems, such as uneven terrain and how to lay steel to ensure that the seams are seamless.

After a long time, the research institute finally came up with a list, and it was Chen Zhengkang who sent the list, this person is already Chen Zhengtai's closest relative, and he is a cousin, and the reason why he is called to send it is also for a reason, Chen Zhengtai has a very perverse temperament recently, and he has taken the wrong medicine, so everyone dare not provoke him, and it is most suitable for Chen Zhengkang to come, after all, it is a family.

Chen Zhengkang cringed and carefully sent the list to Chen Zhengtai.

Chen Zhengtai looked at it, and then handed it to Wu Yu on the side.

Wu Yu said: "To build the railroad tracks, it will cost 19.4 million yuan, 13 steel smelting workshops of the same scale as the Erpigou Iron and Steel Workshop need to be built, and more than 39,400 craftsmen and laborers need to be recruited; It is necessary to develop Shuofang Mine on a large scale, with at least six iron mines and three coal mines. There is still a need for large-scale acquisition of logs in the Kannai; Seven workshops of the same scale as the two Pigou mechanical workshops are required. Need ......"

Wu Jue read word by word.

Chen Zhengkang trembled in his heart, in fact...... This list was sent as a result of preliminary discussions, and after this list was drawn up, everyone knew that this plan was too expensive, and it might sell the entire Chen family, and they could only barely make up such a number.

Because of this, everyone thinks that as long as such a thing is sent, Chen Zhengtai can only retreat in the face of difficulties.

This ambitious plan is supported by a lot of money.

Therefore, Chen Zhengkang has been mentally prepared, after Chen Zhengtai reads it, he will definitely be furious, scold him for being so expensive, and then scold him again, and finally drive him out, and this matter will be stopped.

After Wu Jue finished reading, he raised his eyes and looked at Chen Zhengtai: "Teacher, what do you think?" ”

Chen Zhengtai pondered for a moment and said, "It's much cheaper than I imagined." ”

Chen Zhengkang: "......"

He suspected that he was having auditory hallucinations.

Chen Zhengtai then said: "I didn't expect to save so much money, I thought it would cost at least twenty or thirty million yuan." I think this is good, it's really hard for everyone, these days, I'm afraid there is no less hard work. Zhengkang, although you are my cousin, I am the king of the county given by the imperial court, and the Chen family is also my master, so I will rely on the small seller to say, you have done a good job, this plan seems to be feasible. Preliminary work should be carried out immediately, and a test site should be built for verification, and in addition to that, ...... Wu Jue...... I think about it, you have to find a way, study the principle of boiling water more, do you remember boiling water? ”

"I remember." Wu Jue thought for a while and said: "When the boiling water is boiled, the force is generated, just like a windmill and a waterwheel, how can it ...... Teacher...... Any thoughts? ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Think about it, windmills and waterwheels...... can be pushed by wind and water, but these two, the only bad thing is that they can't do without wind and water, but since we can get the same thing by boiling water, can we boil water in a carriage? ”

Wu Jue's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say: "I understand what my master meant, boiling water in the carriage, and there was a breath, and this gas pushed the car forward, right?" ”

Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but look at Wu Jue jealously: "That's probably what it means." ”

This person is really smart and wicked, can he not make people envious, jealous and hateful?

"The principle is one thing, but how can such a small force be pushed? I have to think of ways from other directions, but in my spare time, I can learn from the people in the research institute, and maybe I can get some inspiration from it. ”

Compare notes......

Chen Zhengtai can already imagine that it may be Wu Jue who was fighting with those nerds in the research institute in the early stage, and after a period of time, it was Wu Jue who beat these nerds on the ground.

"It's hard for you."

Chen Zhengtai then looked at Chen Zhengkang and said: "You have to think a little more, go back and tell the research institute, start preparations immediately, use all the manpower and material resources, don't worry about money." ”

Reality and imagination are really different!

Chen Zhengkang almost knelt down and howled, Your Highness, don't be like this.

But Chen Zhengtai looked relaxed, at this time he really treated money as dung.

You know, the Chen family is casual, and they will earn two million yuan, and there will be more in the future.

This is thanks to that Zhu Wenye, if it weren't for him, he really wouldn't have this confidence.

Chen Zhengtai said: "Go get busy." ”

"Whoa." Chen Zhengkang obediently agreed, after all, he didn't dare to talk more, so he saluted and went.

……

In the study, Wu Jue looked puzzled, in fact, for her, she was not in a hurry about the car that Chen Zhengtai explained, she had probably read the physics books in junior high school, the principle was ready-made, and the next thing was how to make this power usable.

It's just that she is puzzled: "Teacher, after spending so much manpower and material resources, only one will be cultivated, is it worth it?" ”

Chen Zhengtai's eyes widened: "How can you say that so much manpower and material resources have been spent?" ”

Immediately, he patiently explained: "Did the mines we dug out, the workshops we built, and the craftsmen we trained disappear out of thin air? No, no, they haven't disappeared, it's just that this money has become people's salaries, minerals, roads, roads can make transportation convenient, and people have salaries, they have to have food, clothing, shelter and transportation, after all, they still have to buy my family's car, buy the rice we grow and the meat we breed in Shuofang, and after all, we still have to buy our family's cloth. When the money is spent, it does not disappear out of thin air, but is transferred from one shop to another, and from this person to the next shop. So we spent 20 million yuan, but in essence, we created countless values, but what we got was more usable steel and more convenient transportation, so that it could provide us with more help in the grassland. Got it? In this grassland, there are countless Hu people, they are more suitable for the grassland than us, we want to encroach on them, we must use their strengths and avoid weaknesses, give full play to their strengths, hide their weaknesses, to put it bluntly, use money to kill them. ”

Wu Jue was thoughtful, she seemed to be beginning to have some understanding, and said, "I see, so ...... In doing anything, you can't care about temporary gains and losses, and the wise man thinks far-sightedly, that's the truth, right? ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "This is not a wise man's foresight. It's because, if I only have ten dollars in my hand, all I can think about is where to fill my stomach tomorrow. But if I have a hundred, a thousand, I have to think about what I should do in the coming year to make more profits. If I have all the might, let me think of my children...... How to get my shade. But what if I have a million, a ten, or even tens of millions? When there is such a huge wealth, then the consideration should not be the immediate gains and losses, but the well-being of the people of the world, in the process of seeking the world, and can benefit my family, why not? ”

"So, it's not that I'm a wise man, but thanks to that Zhu Xianggong, thanks to the big and small clans in this world, they have to stuff the wealth of their ancestors for dozens of generations into my hands, I feel embarrassed myself, I desperately want to stop them, saying that I can't do it, you give too much, but they just refuse to follow, I can't say a word, they want to scold me, I don't want this money, they will show their fierceness, they have to beat me. What do you think I can do? I had no choice but to accept all the money. But simple wealth is meaningless, it is just a piece of waste paper, especially such a great wealth, if it is just hidden, wouldn't you be afraid? If it were me, I would be afraid, I would be too scared to sleep, so ...... I have to spread this wealth and use it to strengthen my foundation and benefit the world, so that I can have peace of mind. Do you really think that I have been tossing fine porcelain for so long just to get money? Wu Jue, don't think so badly about the teacher, the teacher is a person who compares himself to Zhong Leyi, it's just that some people have misunderstandings about me. ”

Wu Jue looked at Chen Zhengtai with admiration and nodded heavily: "Hmm." ”

She is an extremely smart person, not to mention that she is in a complex growth environment, so that Wu Jue has developed a kind of wariness of people since she was a child.

To put it bluntly, it is not easy to trust people.

But in the face of her mentor, she found that she had no resistance, and everything her mentor said was reasonable, and everything she said was credible!

At this time, Chen Zhengtai said again: "Next, what we have to do is to sell fine porcelain like crazy, and sell as much as we can produce." As long as it is still rising, then no one will sell in this market, and there will always be people who will buy. When a market is only bought and not sold, its price can only continue to skyrocket. The more people who buy, the more private porcelain, they will be more convinced of the value of porcelain, they will continue to believe in the porcelain to continue to rise, anyone has a lot of complaints about porcelain, will be attacked by their group, so in the future, we are in this market, we can be like a fish in water, other things, don't worry about it, just export our porcelain to the market. Don't worry about anything else. ”

………………

At this time, in the palace.

Li Shimin was quietly leaning on the bed in the dormitory of the Ziwei Palace.

The eldest grandson queen on the side gently added a high pillow to him.

In fact, the husband and wife don't like to be served by outsiders when they are alone, so whenever Li Shimin comes to the sleeping place, the eldest grandson queen will personally take care of Li Shimin.

It's just that...... Today's Li Shimin is exceptionally silent.

At this time, he was holding a lot of newspapers from recently, looking at them one by one, and even when Empress Changsun talked to him, he looked absent-minded.

After reading dozens of newspapers in one go, Li Shimin still put down the newspapers in confusion.

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, why are you absent-minded today?" ”

Only then did Li Shimin set his eyes on the body of Empress Changsun and said, "I am studying fine porcelain." ”

Empress Changsun said softly: "Then Your Majesty must have a high opinion." ”

"Nope." Li Shimin looked confused, frowned, and said: "I have seen a lot, but the more I look at it, the more I don't understand." I only know this thing, it just keeps rising, everyone says that it is reasonable, but Chen Zhengtai said that the risk is huge, let everyone be careful of the embankment, but the newspaper that can be opposite to Zhengtai Zhengfeng, but said that Zhengtai is alarmist, which is really harboring evil intentions. ”

Empress Eldest Sun subconsciously said, "I want to ...... Maybe what Chint said must have a point. ”

"That's what I think, too." Li Shimin said very seriously: "So I have always been very vigilant about this fine porcelain." But...... Now it's all over the world...... Except for the newspapers, everyone says the same thing...... This thing is bound to rise, and in reality...... It is indeed the same, at the beginning of the month, he was thirty-three, in the middle of the month to thirty-five, and almost at the end of the month, it has exceeded forty, which is clearly the opposite. Look at this study newspaper, this is an article written by Zhu Wenye, he predicted at the beginning of the month that the price would reach 40 yuan, and sure enough, it ...... He was right. Just yesterday, he predicted that by the end of next month, he was afraid that the price would break through 45 percent. ”

"Yikes." Empress Eldest Sun was startled, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Only a porcelain vase? ”

"Yes, just a porcelain vase." Li Shimin was also very puzzled, and said: "Now the whole world is crazy, think about it, you bought a porcelain vase, and it cost twenty yuan at the beginning, but as long as you hide it, it can rise by five to ten percent every month, do you think this is scary?" Those craftsmen work hard all year round, without eating or drinking, how many five or ten times can they earn? ”

Empress Eldest Sun couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and said in a tangled manner: "Then who is reasonable?" ”

"Didn't you say you didn't know?" Li Shimin shook his head, and then said with a wry smile: "I want to know, then it's fine, I'm afraid I'll have already made a fortune." It's very melancholy to think about it, I, the son of heaven, don't have much money in my pocket, but I heard that the Cui family secretly bought countless bottles, and its assets are more than three million. Although this is just a rumor, it is not groundless in the end, if this continues, isn't it that all the families in the world are extremely rich, and there is only one poor man like me? ”

As he spoke, Li Shimin sighed gloomily!
