Emperor Hongji sighed, and he put his hands behind his back.

Looking at his son-in-law.

Liu Wenshan can not be trusted.

But...... Can't you trust your own son-in-law?

He put his hands behind his back and was silent for a long time.

It seems that the officials have seen His Majesty's emotional fluctuations.

Someone couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty ......"

Emperor Hongzhi only glanced at the man lightly, this is an imperial history, and he has some impressions.

This person's face showed a little anxious, obviously ...... He was worried about the imperial court.

But......

Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "I have been waiting for these four months!" Four months later, I will remove Liu Qing's family from office, and if it still cannot be relieved, I will raid the trading market. Do you understand? ”

Fang Jifan breathed a sigh of relief.

He guessed that His Majesty would not poison him.

Really......

Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Erchen, thank Your Majesty for your grace, Your Majesty is discerning, just like a ......"

"Stand down!" Emperor Hongzhi glared at Fang Jifan with a pale face.

Take your protégé to sing against me, and don't dare to obey the edict when the deadline is due, you two masters and apprentices, do you want to rebel against the sky?

If I don't knock you today, it's good, who wants to hear what you are like the sun in the sky, get out, I can't see it.

Fang Jifan's face was resentful, but he was busy; "Then, the retainers will retire, and Your Majesty should pay attention to the dragon body...... Ah, without further ado, quit, quit. ”

Come out of the temple of heaven.

Liu Wenshan is still in a dream.

He didn't know why he had the courage to do so.

Come to think of it, this is what my teacher gave me.

Looking at his teacher, Liu Wenshan was so moved that he almost cried.

Who is it, teaching by word and deed, teaching oneself knowledge, and teaching oneself the truth of life.

And who is it, always at a critical moment, to stand up and speak for himself?

In this world, who else is there besides the teacher?

"Teacher......" Liu Wenshan couldn't help himself with excitement: "Student...... Did you get it right? ”

Fang Jifan almost wanted to smash this guy's dog head, and when he encountered this kind of guy who lacked a string in his brain, Fang Jifan was also very convinced, and he really wanted to kill him.

But...... looked at Liu Wenshan's expectant face, the cautious and eager to be recognized.

Fang Jifan put his hands behind his back and said: "Well, yes, as a teacher, I like your little temper, how to teach you on weekdays, how to teach you on weekdays, the husband must stick to his heart, but also for heaven and earth, for the common people, for the peace of all generations!" It seems that you have learned a little noble sentiment for your teacher, and you will work hard in the future. ”

Liu Wenshan's face was overjoyed, he was in the hall, and the tears that had not yet fallen, at this moment, they were all falling in an uproar, he choked up, and said intermittently: "Student...... Follow the teachings of your teacher and ...... today Yes...... Being able to stick to one's own principles is really a good teacher's teachings, and students serve their teachers...... It is not as good as the teacher's case, and it cannot be compared with the teachers and brothers, and from then on, the students ...... Students must catch up, as the teacher said, to be a person who benefits the country and the people, and has the world in his heart, even if it is death, it is to destroy the three tribes, destroy the nine tribes, and punish the ten ......."

Fang Jifan immediately said: "Enough, don't talk this nonsense, the eldest husband should be down-to-earth, it's useless to say these words, in the future, you will say such nonsense as the Ten Clans, and kill you for the teacher, a dog-like thing!" ”

Fang Jifan almost fled.

People like this can't be provoked.

What the hell do you give this guy on weekdays...... What is indoctrination?

Sure enough, it's cool to brag for a while, but the that can be bragged is responsible, maybe one day he will be killed by these protégés.

A group of turtle sons, don't your conscience hurt if you pit your teacher like this?

………………

The pilgrimage ends.

An inconspicuous Hanlin, frowning, walked out.

He was alone, didn't pay attention to anyone, just silently, in the flow of people, pacing slowly.

Today's court meeting is really shocking.

Wang Bushi tried hard to recall every detail.

According to the theory of the Wealth of Nations, the sudden rise of pig iron is that there is a huge demand in the market, and under this huge market demand, such a terrible situation will occur.

But the question is why there is such a huge demand in the market all of a sudden.

Who has such a large financial resource to frantically buy pig iron, even if the price has doubled, can not satisfy this huge appetite.

Where else could there be but West Mountain?

Demand......

The surge in demand must be something that Xishan is secretly tossing.

Coupled with the fact that the old city housing is constantly being shorted, it is obvious that this may have a huge relationship with the old city.

Liu Wenshan argues on the basis of reason, and it is certainly not simple.

Because, what demand brings is the expansion of the scale of production, and to a certain extent, in the Wealth of Nations, huge demand, soaring prices, is actually not a bad thing.

This means that the production capacity has skyrocketed.

That is to say, if they are given four months, the invisible hand of the market is very likely to adjust supply and demand, even after four months, there will still be an imbalance between supply and demand, but it will definitely not be so tense.

Wang Bushi thought of this, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Their business may have something to do with pig iron.

Pig iron is closely related to the old city.

After four months, the balance between supply and demand is reached, or is it ...... The relationship between supply and demand has been alleviated.

Their business...... It's going to be done.

Housing prices in the old city will have to fall for at least four months.

After four months, there could be a recovery, no, not a recovery, it could be a skyrocket.

No, within three months, don't be in a hurry to start, first slowly wait for the old city to be shorted in Xishan, and at that time, land prices and housing prices will fall to the freezing point, which is the best time to make your own move.

Within these three months, it is necessary to raise enough money to mortgage the house in the new city.

Do the math.

According to the rules of Qianzhuang, his real estate in Xincheng, as well as the wealth of the entire family, plus the silver that he can borrow from relatives and friends, can have more than 200,000 taels...... That's enough!

No, for the sake of safety, go back and ponder the Wealth of Nations, which is really a divine book.

To find a day off, it is best to go to the trading market and see if the fluctuations of pig iron are the same as you predicted.

Wang Bushi suddenly paced slowly.

Suddenly, someone said, "Wang Bushi? ”

Wang Bushi raised his head and looked ahead blankly, but saw a person with his hands behind his back, looking at himself.

Wang Bushi was shocked, isn't this Liu Jian and Liu Gong: "Xia Guan has seen Liu Gong." ”

Liu Jian smiled slightly and said, "You came to the cabinet with the old man, but what's the matter?" ”

Wang Bushi looked around at this time, and when he saw that he was patronizing and thinking about his thoughts, he only felt that he was following the flow of people, who expected, he didn't go out of the noon gate, but actually followed Liu Jian and came to the cabinet.

Wang Bushi said in a panic: "The lower official is dead, and the lower official is distracted." ”

"Nothing." Liu Jian shook his head: "In the future, think less about some things, people, be strong, and look forward." ”

Liu Jian looked at Wang Bushi with a sympathetic expression.

Since the return of the scum Wang Bushi in the world, even Liu Jian has heard that this poor Hanlin named Wang Bushi is mentally abnormal, pitiful, a good Hanlin Qinggui, but he has been stinking for 10,000 years, and his life has changed since then.

Wang Bushi saluted and hurried to the direction of the noon gate.

…………

Zhu Houzhao began to pay attention to the smelting of steel.

The steel workshops in Xishan, the skills of smelting steel, have indeed improved.

Especially in the process of manufacturing steam locomotives, many processes have been greatly improved.

Therefore, in order to ensure the forging of rails, Zhu Houzhao personally supervised the construction of the steelmaking furnace.

Dozens of students, holding a variety of hand-drawn drawings, continuous discussion, all aspects of the process and technical level, in fact, need to meet the needs of mass production, but at the same time, must meet the standard of steam locomotive driving, therefore, it is necessary to immediately try to build a steelmaking furnace, first trial production, in the determination of qualified, while ensuring the output of the premise, can be launched more steelmaking furnaces.

Zhu Houzhao was heartbroken for this.

finally took a leisurely time, and when he knew that Fang Jifan was taking his life to defend Liu Wenshan, Zhu Houzhao found Fang Jifan, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Old Fang, you are really amazing, this palace is convinced, I thought you were a rat who was greedy for life and afraid of death, but who would have thought that you also had this side of forgetting to die." ”

Fang Jifan's face was flat, he took a sip of tea, and then put down the teacup lightly: "People are inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather." What I'm afraid of is just dying like a feather, if it is as heavy as Mount Tai, the country of death can be the same, the country of death! ”

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan, and when he saw that Fang Jifan was serious, he still had some doubts in his heart, and then, he was happy: "The steel has been refined, and now, the daily output is 5,000 catties." ”

Five thousand catties, in the future generations, is only two tons of steel, not worth mentioning.

Fang Jifan was unmoved.

"Now a lot of pig iron has been purchased, to be honest, the palace is very painful, Xishan is now ready, to build countless steel-making furnaces, this output, after a month, can be increased by thirty times, and strive to within three months, the output can reach a hundred times, and strive for the daily output, can reach 500,000 catties, hahahaha...... It's just that...... This silver ......"

The daily output of 500,000 catties is only 200 tons.

However, this output is already very amazing, in Fang Jifan's memory, recorded in the Ming Dynasty, the steel output of Jiangxi Province is only 3.26 million catties, and Huguang is 6.75 million catties. With a daily output of 500,000 catties, it is equivalent to ten days to refine the steel output of a province.

Of course, the premise of all this is...... There is enough pig iron.

At the same time, there must be countless amounts of silver, and they must be smashed hard.

Under the current technical conditions, the output is small, but it can be compensated for by the scale, and the scale is silver!

Fang Jifan gritted his teeth: "How much silver needs to be allocated, the account is reported, how much is given, we are not short of money, we are short of steel!" ”
