Chapter 948: Dearest and Beloved Disciple

Fang Jifan took a good time: "It's okay, it's okay, pig iron will be coming soon, then damn Liu Wenshan ......"

Fang Jifan began to grind his teeth, eager to smoke this dog-like thing to death.

You can't open such an opening.

Once the opening is opened, with this precedent, hundreds of disciples and grandchildren will all be fucking ten clans, what's the matter, will our successor clan be used as a public toilet? Come if you want to, go as soon as you say, kill my master and master at every turn, hey, I want to charge tickets.

"That damn Liu Wenshan, his character is a little despicable, but his theory may not be wrong." Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with a smile: "So, there will be pig iron!" ”

If the supply exceeds the demand, according to the experience of the ancients, it will cause prices to skyrocket.

The agricultural society pays attention to stability, whether it is soaring or plummeting, it is a huge harm to people's livelihood.

This is also the reason why a group of people led by Liu Jian hope to take extreme measures and directly raid Shangjia.

This is not to say that Liu Jian and others have lost their conscience, but once the pig iron cannot be supplied, many businessmen will hoard goods, which will inevitably lead to turmoil in the country.

Pig iron has always been the most important material for the country.

Once the imperial court's arsenal loses pig iron, then the weapons cannot be supplied to the border towns in time.

Once the price of pig iron skyrockets, the price of the people's agricultural tools will skyrocket, which is closely related to agriculture, which will lead to a large-scale reduction in grain production in the coming year.

Even if there is no big problem for the time being, for example, in the arsenal of the imperial court, there are still weapons in reserve, and the people can barely supply the demand for agricultural tools.

But in the long run, the harm to the country is huge.

The reason why the Tatars used to trade with the Ming Dynasty and repeatedly turned their faces was that even if the Ming Dynasty traded with it, it was also strictly controlled the trade of pig iron, so that the Tatars didn't even have an iron pot, and they couldn't live their lives, so they did it if they didn't accept it!

Therefore, the ancients had an old way of knowing this kind of experience, they hated the merchants who hoarded goods, and they could minimize the harm by using them.

But on the other hand, this is also a dead cycle, do not get out of this dead cycle, but whenever there is a huge demand in the market, the merchants start to stock up, they kill the sacrifice to the sky, and use strong means to maintain stability. The entire Ming Dynasty is still a pool of stagnant water.

Liu Wenshan's method is simple.

Use market methods to achieve a balance between supply and demand.

Although the merchants are profit-seeking, they can be exploited, they have a very keen sense of smell, they have a super strong sense of action, and the price of pig iron will skyrocket, they will go crazy...... Looking for the source of pig iron, in this way, once there are more and more pig iron in the market, the situation of short supply will be solved.

Zhu Houzhao listened to Fang Jifan's assurance, and nodded his head; "This palace believes in Liu Wenshan, after all, this is a guy who asks for punishment from the Ten Clans...... Ahaha......"

Fang Jifan's face twitched.

Zhu Houzhao immediately said: "Yes, I dreamed in this palace last night." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Fang Jifan many times, he couldn't keep up with Zhu Houzhao's thinking at all.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Who do you think you dreamed of?" ”

Fang Jifan shook his head.

Zhu Houzhao said happily: "You ......"

Fang Jifan's hair stood on end.

"And Xu Jing!" Zhu Houzhao hugged his brain: "Bengong can't figure it out, why did he dream of him." ”

Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Your Highness should say, why did you dream of Chen and Xu Jing." ”

"Hongu often dreams of you." Zhu Houzhao pouted: "What's so strange about this, the point of this palace is, why did you dream of him, he has been at sea for so many years, and there is no news, is he already dead, so he entrusted the dream to this palace, what is the meaning of this dream?" I have to ask Li Zhenren to interpret the dream. ”

Fang Jifan said: "My nephew, what kind of dreams can you interpret." Hey, it was His Royal Highness who reminded me, I actually remembered my dearest and beloved Xu Jing, and now I think about it, other protΓ©gΓ©s, there are few intimate ones, such as the damn Liu Wenshan. It's Xu Jing......"

Fang Jifan's eyes were a little moist.

This is my favorite disciple.

Thinking of his uncertain life and death, Fang Jifan's heart ...... Fang Jifan felt that his heart was like a prick, it hurt!

"He's not going to die." Fang Jifan said with a straight face: "He will live, he still has to be a cow and a horse for me, in order to let him go to sea, Your Majesty and we spent so much silver......"

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "That's good." However, there is still a problem with Hongu. ”

Fang Jifan glanced at Zhu Houzhao suspiciously: "Your Highness seems to have a lot of problems today. ”

Zhu Houzhao said with a bitter face: "In the past few days, Bengong has published a lot of papers, and some journals have published them, but in this issue, Bengong submitted a "Observation of Mechanical Movement", damn it, it didn't go to the front page, and the front page was actually that Zhang Xin, Zhang Xin's "On the Nutrition of Crops", which actually squeezed down the paper of Bengong. The review panel is unfair. ”

Fang Jifan couldn't help but say: "The nutrition of crops? I'll see. ”

I was about to get the latest journal to be fetched.

Zhu Houzhao said: "This palace has brought it." ”

took out a journal from his sleeve, and Fang Jifan took it.

Zhu Houzhao cares about journals very much, but he is also a very competitive person, since he hit several papers on mechanics, all of a sudden, by arithmetic, engineering, engineering papers, a large number of citations, it is all the rage.

This made Zhu Houzhao very satisfied, and on this basis, especially in the process of building steam locomotives, he published many papers, and this time, his "Observation of Mechanical Motion", which he thought was going to be on the front page, turned out to be ...... Someone robbed him.

Fang Jifan opened the journal, went straight to the topic, and when he looked at it, he understood: "His Royal Highness's paper is actually not under Zhang Xin, but...... Zhang Xin's paper is even more pleasing, you see, he believes that crops are the same as people, if they want to grow strongly, they need to provide their nutrition, what is nutrition, nutrients are also, just like why His Royal Highness is stronger than others, because His Royal Highness loves to eat beef, many people, why are they yellow and thin, this is because the people are eating bran vegetables. This idea comes out, can the review team not be tempted? Agriculture is the foundation of the country. Here, according to Zhang Xin's years of research and practice, he realized that the nutrition of crops comes from humus, which is humus and vitality, so ......"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but complain: "Speaking of which, who doesn't know that watering crops with fertilizer can make crops grow better, and he still needs to talk about it?" ”

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "This is science, the essence of science is to observe, through observation, to create a set of theories, for example, to understand the two things of humus and vitality, in the future, countless descendants can continue to study on this basis." ”

"But ......" Fang Jifan was happy: "I don't think this point of view of life force is necessarily right. ”

"Huh?" Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, he wanted to slap Zhang Xin's face for a long time, because agriculture was particularly valued by the review team, and many of the papers published by Natuntian were ranked before him.

Fang Jifan said: "Actually, I have an immature idea, the nutrition of crops may come from ...... Minerals. ”

"What mine?" ”

Fang Jifan hadn't spoken yet.

Zhu Houzhao grabbed Fang Jifan's shirt: "You say, do you want to say it?" Not to mention that the palace and you will do the math, you steal the seal of the palace and go around to stamp the account! ”

"Wronged." Fang Jifan howled.

…………

Emperor Hongzhi, as usual, watched Song Shu in the Fengtian Temple.

His life was boring.

So much so that Xiao Jing also felt that it was very boring, the emperor of other people's families.

Think about your predecessors, Wang Zhen and Wang Zhi, which one of them didn't follow an emperor who cheated his father, followed this emperor, wandering around all day long, and those days could be described as colorful.

On the other hand, when I opened my eyes every day, I didn't follow Emperor Hongzhi to say hello, and then I went to Fengtian Palace, this station, that is, seven or eight hours, it was dark, and I went home to sleep.

Is this still the life that eunuchs should live?

But he didn't dare to complain, hunched over, and stood aside cautiously.

Outside, someone probed into the brain.

Xiao Jing saw it, glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and suddenly realized that His Majesty, who was still buried in the case, tiptoed out of the Fengtian Palace, and the little eunuch hurriedly said: "Ancestor, it's not good." ”

"Be quiet, be quiet." Xiao Jing stood with his hands behind his back.

"The book of the military department was beaten by the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

"What?" Xiao Jing had a feeling of being a dog.

If Your Majesty had known, he would not have been furious.

This is a dignified book, but it was beaten by the imperial history, what kind of system is this, and it is going to make a big joke.

"Why?" Xiao Jing stared at the eunuch deadly.

The eunuch period Ai Ai said: "These days, the bureau is seriously short of pig iron, in order to prevent it from happening, the Metropolitan Procuratorate has checked the number of storage of the arsenal of the military department, and the military department says that the weapons of the arsenal can be used for a year, but who knows...... The imperial historians went to the arsenal to check ...... But it was discovered...... But I found ......"

Xiao Jing seemed to understand something: "Less? ”

"It's not just less." The eunuch froze and realized that his voice was a little louder, and lowered his voice again: "It turned out that in terms of swords, there were 19,366 knives, but the actual number was not one in ten, and there were less than 2,000, and most of them were rotten. The imperial historians have been angry, and they have beaten Ma Wensheng for a while, and now the military department is still making a lot of trouble. ”

Xiao Jing shuddered: "This matter, don't let Dongchang get involved, it's their own business, dog eats dog!" Xiao Jing said, turned his head, glanced at Fengtian Temple, and then said lightly: "Okay, you go down." ”
