Volume 1: Twilight Wants to Fall and Wind and Rain Chapter 20: Lu Xingzhou

In Liuxin Lake, Taixue Mansion, Su Yin sat on the old elm tree by the lake, holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand, while watching the boats in the lake taking advantage of the spring flowers to step on the lake in spring, while knocking on the melon seeds, and ending up at ease.

At this time of the year, the grass grows on both sides of Liuxin Lake and the warbler flies, the scenery is pleasant, after the lake thaws, there are more Jinwei 10,000 pieces, a handful of bait is sprinkled, you can see countless fish in Jinwei jumping over the lake, splashing ripples and dots, it is a strange scene, Taixue is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and the daughters of the brocade clothes who have never lacked fun can only find some fun here.

Su Yin really wanted to go boating on the lake, trying to throw the bait to attract countless brocade tails to compete for the first, but he was shy in his pocket, with the little copper plate in his pocket, it was impossible to even take the smallest boat, so he could only sit on the shore and watch these rich children have fun, and they were too happy.

The small boats on the lake wander back and forth, want to raft in the willow heart lake, but it is much more expensive than other places, the smallest boat lease is fifty taels of silver a day, and the larger Jiangnan Wupeng is one hundred taels, so that the price is almost doubled, and the painting boat parked by the lake is even more than five hundred taels! You must know that the five-grade officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee only earn 300 taels a year, and the Taixue Academy, which is famous for its education, is also a well-deserved champion in terms of making money.

There was a great Confucian who said to the lord of the mansion Zhou Nanxing that this move was too snobbish and damaged the reputation of the school, but the lord of the mansion Zhou Nanxing replied that the wool was out of the sheep, and the silver did not go into my pocket, anyway, these powerful children have never been deflated in their pockets, rather than letting them spend time in other places, it is better to pay for it honestly, and the annual repair of the Taixue Mansion is not a small amount.

What Zhou Nanxing said is irrefutable, and the Taixue Mansion, which occupies half of the northern suburbs of Chang'an, spends a lot of money every year. After the news of this incident, instead of being blamed, the princes and nobles who paid the silver praised it, and laughed that the lord of the Zhou Mansion had a way to make money, and if he went to business for half a year and eight years, he would be the richest man in Chang'an.

Let people pay the unjust money and smile and give a thumbs up, this is the ability of the Zhao Mansion Master.

At this time of year and the beginning of autumn, it is the most straining day for chartering boats in Liuxin Lake, not to mention that the cheap boat Wupeng is in short supply, and even the painting boat and the ship are as hot as the boat.

There are many reincarnated hands in the Taixue Academy, naturally with superior arrogance and arrogance, just imagine playing on the same Liuxin Lake, you are sitting and walking in a good mood, facing a painting boat rushing forward, not to mention that the people on the boat are still condescending to look down on you, how can you bear it?

Every year there will be such a thing happening in Liuxin Lake, there is no shortage of unlucky people who are washed into the water, for this reason, the owner of the Zhou Mansion also 'intimately' arranged for the boatman waiting on the shore to catch people, I am afraid that the son who is really not used to water will become a wronged water ghost.

If you fall into the water, you will become a laughing stock after tea and dinner in Taixuefu, and the soup chicken is small, but the face is big. If the children of the powerful who have no shortage of food, drink, clothing, and housing don't fight for a breath, is it possible to steam steamed buns?

Su Yin sat by the lake, in addition to watching the scenery and blowing the wind, just waiting for this fixed show every year.

It's lively, don't look at it, don't look at it.

The old elm tree shook violently, Su Yin grabbed the melon seeds with both hands, almost fell down, hurriedly reached out and grabbed the trunk, looked down angrily, Jiang Shuobei said with a wicked smile: "I know that your kid is here, and you are here to enjoy the show again?" ”

Su Yin jumped off the tree, and half of the melon seeds in his hand were instantly snatched away by Jiang Shuobei, Su Yin didn't care, stretched his waist and said lazily: "There are fewer people boating this year than in previous years, it is estimated that I can't wait for the wonderful drama of the little marquis of Huaiyin and the second son of Zhufu last year. ”

Jiang Shuobei peeled off the melon seeds and threw them into his mouth, and said, "Who let Mr. Xun return to Chang'an City at this juncture?" These days, the fast horses who return to the city to report the news are one after another, it is estimated that the mansion of the hundred officials of the imperial court has already exploded, and the grass house in the back mountain where Mr. Xun lives can not even see a figure on weekdays, but now it is good, the moss on the stone steps has smoothed the soles of the shoes, but unfortunately they were all stopped at the foot of the mountain, and it is said that even a few Confucian teachers went to visit together and did not see Mr. Xun. ”

Su Yin sat down on the spot and chuckled: "Let him flood the sky, I will calm down; Anyway, it's none of my business. I, ah, I'll wait for the final exam now, and then follow the instructions of the officials to go where to go, if I go to Youzhou, I have to ask the little general of our Yingyang Mansion to take care of it more. ”

Jiang Shuobei also smiled and nodded: "It's easy to say, I will bring troops to come when the time comes, so that you can personally feel how heavy the tiger head spear body of my Eagle Yang Mansion is." ”

Jiang Shuobei looked up with a smile, and at this glance, he saw a huge mast in the center of Liuxin Lake, which was half as high as the Zhengshan Mountain of Taixuefu.

He lost his mind slightly, and Su Yin followed his line of sight and looked over, and said, "General Yingyang was sealed on this big boat, right?" ”

Jiang Shuobei nodded.

The sails and boats on the willow heart lake are staggered, but in front of this giant ship, they are like children and babies.

This big ship is of great significance, it is the pinnacle of Daning's boating, but it is not a river, but a land boat!

Emperor Fengtian went on a northern expedition against the Xiongnu, and ordered craftsmen to build three land boats in Yuyang County, Youzhou, with different sizes. During the Northern Expedition, Emperor Fengtian personally drove a giant boat on the grassland, and the slaves were scattered when they saw it, and Daning was invincible!

The land boat parked in the center of Liuxin Lake in Taixue Mansion is the 'Wonding' where the Fengtian Emperor's holy drive was located that year, and it is also the largest of the three land boats, up to 100 zhang, with 1,800 giant ships underneath.

In order to drive this giant ship back to Chang'an, Emperor Fengtian took great pains to widen the official road from Youzhou to Chang'an.

Of the remaining two land boats, one is still in Youzhou, while the other was destroyed in the Northern Expedition, for which the Xiongnu paid for the lives of thousands of elite wolf riders in the royal court.

After the victory of the Northern Expedition, the Fengtian Emperor also rewarded his ministers on this boat.

Jiang Shuobei touched his nose and said, "I want to get closer and have a look." ”

Su Yin frowned and said, "Are you crazy? Where did you get so much money to charter a ship? Or are you ready to swim over? Then there is the most popular thing in Taixue this year, the little general of Yingyang Mansion is playing in Liuxin Lake. ”

Jiang Shuobei groped in his arms, took out a brand-new fifty taels of silver ticket, Su Yin's eyes widened and said, "Damn, you really have it!" Aren't you afraid that after being seen, it will be reported to the court tomorrow that your father has embezzled military salaries and enriched his own pockets? ”

Jiang Shuobei rolled his eyes and said, "You talk so much nonsense, hurry up, go or not!" ”

"Go!"
