Chapter 487: Divide the Spoils
Cao Feng looked at Zhou Heng with bright eyes, and his words completely shocked him.
At first, he felt that he had no soulmate and could not be recognized by everyone, so he rested on his laurels, grounded himself in the mansion, changed the layout of his home, and wore strange clothes, all to express these differences.
And today's Zhou Heng's song made him see his direction.
"Thank you Zhou Yuan for the on-demand broadcast, let Cao Feng solve his confusion today, and I will go to Taichang Temple tomorrow to report on my work."
Zhou Heng nodded, this person is a sound idiot, but he just wants more people to understand him, but being an official is not just about being self-congratulatory, you have to understand the sophistication of people, after all, Qu Gao and Widow are lonely and self-appreciative.
"Fifth Master Cao, prepare well, I went to Taichang Temple tomorrow, I hope to keep my original intention, maybe you can find a different beauty in others, I will leave for the time being."
Cao Feng didn't stay longer, he knew that Zhou Heng and they had a lot of things, so he personally sent Zhou Heng out of Cao's mansion and stood in front of the door for a long time.
Zhu Yunmo sat in the car for a long time and didn't speak, and Zhou Heng looked at Zhu Yunmo, who was so silent, and was a little puzzled for a while.
"What's wrong with Shizi?"
Zhu Yunmo shook his head, "It's okay, it's just a little emotional, maybe people have grown up and their horizons have become different, looking back on this year, I didn't originally want to get rid of the teachings of Confucianism, pretending to be sick and stupid, and a day of confusion."
Now, when I return to the capital again, I am busy with the affairs of Beishan and Huichun Hall every day, and I often go to see the imperial grandmother, and slowly I find that my mood has become different. ”
Zhou Heng was a little surprised, he didn't expect Zhu Yunmo to reflect on his changes so deeply, but it was true, when he first met Zhu Yunmo, he was so frightened or cautious everywhere.
Now I can still go with the Queen Mother to help Cao Feng get an official position, stand up for Xiu'er, go to the palace to complain, and play with the emperor, which is really a huge change.
"Well, we now have silver, people, and industry, so we naturally want to do something different, by the way, how has Zhu Xiaochang been recently, is it apprenticed to Xu Ge?"
Zhu Yunmo glanced at Fang Hua, who was sitting outside, leaned closer to Zhou Heng and said:
"Two days after we went to Beishan, Ning Wangfu set up a thank-you banquet, and the Xu family and the Wen family invited many people from the court to watch the ceremony, and the movement was not small, but the apprenticeship was apprenticeship, even if he participated in the imperial examination, what happened to him could not be washed clean, and now I don't care about these."
Zhou Heng raised his eyes to look at Zhu Yunmo, it seems that this kid has really let go of a lot.
"Well, Wen's arrangement for Zhu Xiaochang to apprentice to Xu Ge Lao, just to let Xu Ge Lao recommend him to participate in the imperial examination, I also understand this step, since the prince doesn't care, then I will train Mingyu well, this kid's strategy has made great progress, poetry and arithmetic, not to mention unparalleled, but also few opponents."
Zhou Heng's words made Zhu Yunmo a little surprised, and he was immediately interested.
"You mean Xue Mingyu, the younger brother of Boss Xue?"
Zhou Heng nodded, "That's him." ”
"Why didn't I know that he had this knowledge, he wasn't the one who managed those cashiers and pharmacies on the cabinet of the Rejuvenation Hall before, and he actually wanted to participate in the imperial examination?"
Zhou Hengyi raised his chin.
"Why can't it, don't look at who his master is, with my careful teaching, how can you not progress."
Zhu Yun glanced at him, "It's best to be able to compare, and win him in the things that others care about the most, this is called a blow, just like the poetry meeting in the Prince's Mansion, I think the biggest blow to Zhu Xiaochang in the first twelve years was on that day!" ”
Zhou Heng smiled and didn't speak, in fact, he also thought so, Mingyu's weakest thing is that he has been practicing for a few months now, and there should be no big problem, and the rest of the poetry and arithmetic will not lose points, and there will definitely be a top three competitiveness.
At this moment, Zhu Yunmo bumped into Zhou Heng and asked:
"What's the matter, are we going back to your house, or are we going to Beishan?"
Zhou Heng thought about it for a while, everything in front of him was almost explained, Beishan really needed to go over and study the hot air balloon.
I told the emperor before, just to prove that rubber is widely used, but if it is really to be used as a surface material for hot air balloons, this will have to be experimented.
"Let's go back to the Zhou Mansion first, and then go to Beishan, Gonggong Fang wants to go back to the palace to resume his life, won't the prince follow him over to take a look?"
Zhu Yunmo was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the emperor said last night that if you think about it, this is indeed an important matter, and the more people who cooperate, the more protection, and the less risk.
Zhu Yunmo's face suddenly became nervous, and he grabbed Zhou Heng's arm.
"Forget it, don't go back to Zhou's mansion, let's enter the palace together!"
Zhou Heng glanced at him and raised his hand to pat the carriage.
"Brother Xue go to the palace, Father-in-law Fang wants to return to his life, and we will also go to the palace."
......
In the palace, Zhou Heng came to the imperial study for the first time, and he saw them either in the East Warm Pavilion or in the Yangxin Palace on weekdays.
Fang Hua followed Fang Jizhong into quickly, and after a while, Fang Hua came out again and saluted Zhou Heng and Zhu Yunmo.
"Shizi and Zhou Yuanju, please, just now the little one has already told His Majesty about today's follow-up, and His Majesty is happy!"
Zhou Heng hurriedly smiled at Fang Hua, this meaning is too obvious, at least if they are in the car, Fang Hua hears some, this is a show of goodwill, and he must appreciate it.
"Thank you Father-in-law Fang for mentioning it!"
Fang Hua didn't say much, let go of the position at the door, helped them open the curtain, the two entered the imperial study, Fang Jizhong was waiting in front of the palace, glanced at the two, put down the tea cup in his hand, and the emperor immediately raised his head.
"Here, you two come here!"
Zhou Heng and Zhu Yunmo hurriedly stepped forward to salute, the emperor saw that he was really happy, and hurriedly asked Fang Jizhong to sit, Zhou Heng looked cautious, and sat on the side of the brocade.
"I just listened to Fang Hua's reply, Zhou Heng, you did a good job, I didn't expect these veterans' bodies to recover so quickly, especially Ning Yuanhou and General Cang, the two of them have really worked hard all their lives for my Liang Jiangshan, I don't want them to be so desperate for a lifetime, and it can be regarded as helping me with a heart."
Zhou Heng chuckled in his heart, why is this so scary, it is so praised in film and television dramas, and there is absolutely nothing good about what follows, thinking of this, he quickly got up.
"Weichen is terrified, it is the duty of a doctor to treat diseases and save people, and he can't afford such praise from His Majesty!"
The old emperor didn't play tricks today, and waved his hand at Zhou Heng.
"Sit down, you're not too tired to panic, what I said is from the bottom of my heart, I really feel sorry for these old ministers, can I do something for them through you, it can be regarded as a chat of comfort, let's get down to business, what do you think about the cooperation you said yesterday?"
Zhu Yunmo instantly looked up at Zhou Heng, he didn't expect the old emperor to take the initiative to mention this matter, Zhou Heng was a little surprised, but there was no change in his expression at all.
Wechen thinks so, Fujian is far away from the capital, and it is really beyond the reach of some whips, so Wechen is ready to send someone to establish a branch of the Rejuvenation Hall in Fujian, so that the control of the rubber plantation is more convenient.
Invest in the establishment of workshops, extract latex, processing and manufacturing, this series of things, Wechen will naturally send people to manage the operation, but this rubber plantation is located in the mountains, I am afraid that there are fierce beasts, and the people sent by Wechen are some ordinary people, in case of repeated encounters with bandits, they will destroy everything.
Therefore, if His Majesty can send a team to follow the patrol around the area, as well as the delivery of finished products or concentrated latex, this will solve the biggest problem, and of course all the expenses for these people's food, drink, and Lazar will be paid from the operation.
This cooperation, Weichen and Shizi will take advantage of you, how about our 3131? ”
The old emperor looked at Zhou Heng with some doubts, in fact, Zhou Heng knew as soon as he heard this, he was taking advantage of himself, but he could really make money by engaging in such a big battle?
"That's reasonable!"
Zhou Heng secretly despised the old emperor in his heart, what he said was shameless enough, of course you took advantage of it, you must say so.
"It's naturally no problem to send a team, but how to make money in this matter?"
As soon as he heard this, Zhou Heng smiled in his heart, there is a door!
