Chen Jing and the others nodded in unison.

Kou Ji said indifferently: "If one private school can't be accommodated, then build a few more." Children here can go to school, both male and female. I don't need to worry about books, and I don't have to worry about my husband's restraints, I'll take care of it myself. ”

Chen Jing and the others stared at Kou Ji with a look of astonishment.

Thought Kou Ji was joking with them.

Liu Heng and the others also looked at Kou Ji with a stunned face, thinking that Kou Ji had lost his mind.

Under their gaze, Kou Ji continued: "The cost of books, the cost of hiring a gentleman, Kou Fu can pay in advance. When the textile workshop has made a profit, it can be deducted from it. ”

The group was even more shocked when they saw that Kou Ji didn't seem to be joking.

Chen Jing got up excitedly and saluted Kou Ji: "The Kou Gong Department is really kind to the grass people and others. Even if the grass people and others die, I am afraid it will be difficult to repay your kindness. ”

Wang Tiansheng and the others got up and expressed their positions one after another.

bluntly said that Kou Ji was their great benefactor.

Kou Ji didn't take their compliments to heart.

He asked Chen Jing and others to build a private school, and it didn't contain any calculations, it was purely because he saw that the children among the people were deserted, which was strange and uncomfortable, so he asked them to build a private school and let those children go to school.

Chen Jing, Liu Heng and the others didn't know Kou Ji's thoughts.

Chen Jing thought that Kou Ji was simply pitying those children, and Liu Heng and the others thought that Kou Ji had some calculations.

After Chen Jing and the others finished complimentingly, Wang Tiansheng hesitated: "Kou Gong Department, for the dolls to study, the cost is huge, and those female dolls are ......."

Before he finished speaking, Kou Ji waved his hand and said, "Even if the female dolls don't need to learn much advanced knowledge, it's always good to know some words." Literate female dolls, wherever they go, are better than illiterate female dolls. ”

When Wang Tiansheng heard this, he didn't speak again.

Kou Ji was right.

Literate dolls, both male and female, are better than illiterate dolls when they walk out the door.

Although it cost more money, it was not his Wang Tiansheng's.

Kou Ji doesn't care, what does he care?

After deciding this matter, Chen Jing, Wang Tiansheng and others told the news to the people when they were drinking soup.

One by one, the people were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

If it weren't for Kou Ji and Liu Heng and others fleeing outside the North City Gate, it is estimated that the people would kowtow to him in unison to thank him.

One or two people kowtowed to Ko Ji to thank him, and Ko Ji could not care.

But when hundreds of thousands of homeless people kowtow to him, the joy will be great.

After Kou Ji and his party fled back to Bianjing, the goose-feather-like snow fell flutteringly and fell to the ground, a white expanse.

The group made a free place in a wine shop in the city to hide from the wind and snow.

In the liquor store.

Mu Chong stared at Kou Ji suspiciously, and asked, "Kou Gong, you have invested so much money for the children of those ordinary people to study, for what?" ”

Qian Lele smiled happily: "What else can you do for it...... The Ministry of Kou Gong is accumulating virtue and doing good. ”

Meng Weizhong snorted coldly, "You know a fart......"

The smile on Qian Le's face was a little stiff.

After Meng Weizhong scolded Qian Le, he didn't bother to pay attention to him, but looked at Kou Ji with a deep face and said, "I guess the reason why the Kou Gong Department spends a lot of money on the children of those ordinary people to study is to keep them and let them take root outside Bianjing City.

Now that some of the textile workshops outside the city have been built, they have begun to produce more, and after the completion of other textile workshops, the output will be even more.

Although the Ministry of Kou Gong gave the first few batches of fabrics to the people to make clothes.

However, with the current scale of the textile workshop, before the New Year's Festival, it can not only weave enough cloth for those people to buy clothes, but also weave a large number of fabrics that can be used for sale.

In the future, more fabrics will be produced in the textile workshop for us to sell.

At that time, that's when we make money.

But those people are farmers after all, and if the court returns their land to them at the beginning of spring next year, some of them will definitely return to their hometowns to farm.

Some people have finished planting and may come back.

But some people will stay in the countryside and try to survive.

I'm afraid there aren't too many people who are really willing to stay outside the city to help us.

But after the private school was built, it was different, even if those people went back, they were reluctant to bring their children back, and they would still come back to help us do things.

This is the genius of the Ministry of Kougong. ”

After Meng Weizhong said this, the others looked at Kou Ji with a stunned expression, they didn't expect Kou Ji to calculate so deeply.

Even Kou Ji himself was a little stunned.

He didn't expect that a thing he did casually could be interpreted like this.

Seeing Mu Chong and the others looking at him, Kou Ji thought about it, nodded, and admitted Meng Weizhong's statement.

Mu Chong and the others looked at Kou Ji's eyes, full of admiration.

Kou Ji didn't say anything more.

The group stayed in the liquor store until the snow was a little smaller, and then they went home.

Thereafter.

Heavy snow mixed with light snow fell intermittently for three days.

The white disaster that Kou Ji and others talked about did not happen.

Kou Ji asked Kou Zhong to select a few stewards from the government and sent them to the textile workshops outside the city to help the textile workshops outside the city and establish a certain management system.

Kou Ji himself was a salted fish in the house.

Until the beginning of December.

An uninvited guest entered the Kou Mansion and asked to see Kou Ji.

After Kou Ji got Kou Zhong's gift, he went to the side hall of the mansion with a puzzled face and saw a beautiful woman who had not been seen for a long time.

Su Chan'er.

I haven't seen Su Chan'er for a long time, she has less wind and dust on her body, and more dignified and elegant on her body.

After meeting Kou Ji, there was no longer the previous gritted teeth and aggressiveness, but a quiet and elegant gift.

"The little woman Su Chan'er has seen Gongzi Kou."

Kou Ji looked at Su Chan'er, and after inviting her to sit down, he said with some surprise: "This doesn't look like you!" ”

Su Chan'er sat on the chair with her legs bent and smiled indifferently: "The little woman and the son have not met for a year, and in this year, the little woman has experienced a lot, and she has naturally matured. ”

Kou Ji said with a smile: "Is it really mature, or has it been trained like this by the master behind you?" ”

A warm anger flashed in Su Chan'er's eyes, but she said softly: "Our owner has a noble status, and I ask Gongzi Kou not to criticize him." ”

Kou Ji laughed silently: "He has a noble status, what does it have to do with me?" He's still in charge of me. ”

Su Chan'er snorted lightly, unwilling to continue to talk to Kou Ji on this topic.

With the help of Zhao Yuanyan, she has been in charge of Wanhualou for more than a year, and she is used to seeing dignitaries and nobles on weekdays.

Nowadays, even if she is humiliated in front of someone, she can greet people with a smile, and her heart can remain calm as water.

But when facing Kou Ji, Kou Ji can always say a few words and provoke the anger in her heart.

Su Chan'er stared at Kou Ji and said in a deep voice: "The little woman came to find Gongzi this time because our owner has something to discuss with Gongzi. ”

Kou Ji was stunned when he heard this, stared at Su Chan'er and said, "He doesn't plan to come forward?" ”

Su Chan'er said indifferently: "Our owner wants the little girl to replace him, so let's talk to the son first." If the negotiation is not appropriate, he will come forward. ”

Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully and said to Su Chan'er, "Then you go back." Just let your host come out and talk to me. ”

Su Chan'er was stunned for a moment, and a wave of anger surged in her chest, glaring at Kou Ji angrily.

Kou Ji turned a blind eye to her angry look, and said indifferently: "Your owner knows that it may be inappropriate for you to talk to me, but he didn't come forward himself, but asked you to talk to me."

Isn't that redundant?

He has free time to do this kind of thing, which I don't. ”

Kou Ji picked up the teacup on the table and said indifferently: "Kou Zhong, send off." ”

Su Chan'er got up suddenly, and said angrily: "Our owner is a person with status, how can anyone who wants to see it?" ”

Kou Ji glanced at Su Chan'er and waved his hand at Kou Zhong, who had entered the side hall and was about to invite Su Chan'er out.

Kou Zhong bowed and stood aside.

Kou Ji stared at Su Chan'er and sneered, "Your owner is a person with status? Am I not an identity? He is of noble status, but if he doesn't sit in that position for a day, he is not qualified to yell at me.

You go back and tell him not to put up a fight in front of me in the future.

If he wants to talk about anything, let him come to me himself.

If he refuses to come forward, then there is no need to talk about anything. ”

"Kou Zhong! Bang out! ”

Kou Zhong agreed, and dragged Su Chan'er to the door.

Su Chan'er's eyes widened, and she looked incredulous.

She has appeared in the mansions of those dignitaries for more than a year, and the one who treats her with courtesy, like Kou Ji is so domineering, she has only seen Kou Ji like this.

Su Chan'er was dragged by Kou Zhong and shouted at Kou Ji: "The status of our host family is no longer what it used to be. If you treat our host so lightly, sooner or later you will feel better. ”

Kou Ji sneered, didn't pay attention to Su Chan'er, but instructed Kou Zhong, who had already dragged Su Chan'er out of the side hall: "In the future, don't let this kind of cat or dog into the house."

My Koufu is not a garden of solitude, and it is not something that anyone can come in if they want to. ”

Hearing this, Kou Zhong agreed.

When Su Chan'er heard this, she trembled with anger.

Kou Ji waited until Kou Zhong dragged Su Chan'er away, and sat in the side hall as if in contemplation.

It stands to reason that Zhao Yuanyan is now planning desperately for his great cause, and he shouldn't find himself.

He wooed Wang Qinruo and Li Zheng.

Wang Qinruo's surrender gave him a think tank and tongue in the court.

Li Zheng's defection gave him some authority in the court.

He used Li Jian to snatch the three divisions that should have belonged to Liu E.

Now the three divisions and officials are in charge, and they are in charge of the promotion and scheduling of officials all over the world.

He should use the three divisions and officials to expand his results as much as possible.

When you find yourself, what do you do?

Kou Ji thought about it, but he didn't think of Zhao Yuanyan's purpose for looking for him.

Could it be that Zhao Yuanyan wants to win over their ancestors and grandchildren and take refuge in himself?

Isn't that a bit wishful thinking?

Kou Zhun is loyal to Zhao Guangyi, Zhao Heng's father and son, and it is impossible to betray the young master.

He has a good relationship with Zhao Zhen, and it is impossible for him to betray Zhao Zhen.

Kou Ji didn't believe that Zhao Yuanyan would not be able to see through this.

Even if Zhao Yuanyan can't see through it, his think tank Wang Qinruo should also see through it.

Kou Ji couldn't figure out Zhao Yuanyan's purpose for finding himself, so he didn't think about it anymore.

He slowly got up and returned to the Four Monarchs Garden to accompany Xiang Yan.

Kou Ji accompanied Xiang Yan in the house for another day.

Following.

Koji prepares to go out to see the homeless settlement outside the city.

In addition to building textile workshops, wrought iron workshops and private schools have been built in the resettlement places outside the city.

The wrought iron workshop is far more important than the textile workshop, and Kou Ji has to help the Ministry of Labor fight for power later, which is inseparable from the support of the wrought iron workshop.

So he had to take the time to check it out often.

As soon as Kou Ji got out of the alley in the carriage, he was stopped by a strong man with an expressionless face.

Kou Ji frowned, and according to the strong man's instructions, he asked the coachman in the palace to drive the carriage to a courtyard in the outer city.

Then he asked the coachman to drive the carriage back first, and he himself entered the courtyard under the guidance of the strong man.

In a conservatory in the courtyard, I saw Zhao Yuanyan resting on the soft couch.

The earth fire dragon in the conservatory was red, and Zhao Yuanyan was only wearing a single coat and lying on the soft couch on his side.

After seeing Kou Ji enter the door, he didn't speak, but just waved his hand and asked a eunuch to move a stool for Kou Ji to sit down.

Kou Ji squinted his eyes and quietly watched where Zhao Yuanyan was pretending.

There was no opening from beginning to end.

After a long time.

Seeing that Kou Ji didn't speak, Zhao Yuanyan snorted twice and said indifferently: "Kou Ji, why don't you give a salute when you see this king?" ”

Kou Ji said lightly: "The prince has something to say, but the lower officials still have a lot of government affairs to do." ”

Zhao Yuanyan narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Kou Ji, and said coldly: "Kou Ji, are you going to tear your face with this king when you talk to this king like this?" The bad things you have done, all the piles and piles, this king knows clearly, so you are not afraid that this king will play you? ”

Kou Ji rolled his eyes, he felt that Zhao Yuanyan was an idiot when he said this.

Impeaching him useful words?

Can you still get Zhao Yuanyan's turn?

Even if Zhao Yuanyan exposed all the bad things he had done, what could he do?

Everything Kou Ji has done before is either against Ding Wei or Liu E.

Now that Ding Wei has been beheaded, Liu E has been imprisoned in the palace.

The most profitable were the Manchu civil and military forces.

If the imperial court really asked Kou Ji about those things, then one of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty was counted as one, and they were all Kou Ji's accomplices.

What's more, Kou Zhun is now sitting in the inner court and controlling the authority of the world, how can he watch Kou Ji have an accident?

Zhao Yuanyan saw that Kou Ji didn't take himself in his eyes at all, an anger flashed in his eyes, he saw that Kou Ji didn't panic at all in the face of his threat, so he scolded in fear.

"Kou Ji, are you really the king of this country, why can't you do it?"

Kou Ji said nonchalantly: "No...... The prince is a nobleman of the emperor, and when the prince speaks, the subordinates naturally have to listen. ”
