Chapter 66 10,000 catties of iron ore per month

Lu Yuan followed Tang Ying to the Tang Mansion.

When Tang Ying came back, the people of Tang Mansion were naturally happy.

Tang Wang's face also showed a rare smile: "Baby, you married into your husband's family, do you miss us?" ”

"Yes, what I think about most is my mother and brother."

Tang Ying hugged her mother and lied to her.

Tang Wang's family was as happy as if someone had been fed a mouthful of candy, and his eyes were full of smiles.

Tang Wenyun next to him also laughed, glanced at Lu Yuan, and thought that his lovely sister had returned to the man in front of him, and he suddenly felt some indescribable loss in his heart.

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and saluted Tang Wenyun with tea.

And here, Tang Ying has hugged her sister-in-law Yu: "I think more about my sister-in-law, good sister-in-law, you are so capable, my brother is pregnant with a son again." ”

Lu Yuan secretly laughed, and whispered to Tang Ying, who got up and straightened his sideburns: "You said the wrong thing just now, it should be your brother who is capable!" ”

Tang Ying turned his head and glared at Lu Yuan, and punched Lu Yuan.

This way.

Yu was so coquettish by his sister-in-law Tang Ying, and he also smiled and showed his teeth: "I have people from my mother-in-law's family, and I still talk so sweetly, just like when I was in the boudoir." ”

And Tang Ying didn't care so much, and was still tired of being around Yu's side: "Good sister-in-law, don't you only like my brother's sweet words to you, and don't like me to talk sweetly to you?" ”

Tang Wenyun couldn't help coughing when he heard this: "Tang Ying, mother is respectful, don't be so big and small." ”

Yu Shi also seemed to be shy with joy or anger.

On the contrary, Tang Wang's smiled at this time: "It's okay, it's okay, I like my daughter like this, I can see that your Lu family has not lost her." ”

Tang Ying stuck out his tongue at his brother.

Because Tang Wang's words were looking at Lu Yuan.

Therefore, Lu Yuan smiled and replied: "What my mother said is that Tang Ying is also as capable as her sister-in-law, she is a virtuous and polite person, but she returned to the Tang Mansion and returned to her daughter's original appearance, in order to please your mother, this is her filial piety." ”

When Lu Yuan said this, Tang Wang was very satisfied.

And Yu was also very satisfied, after all, Lu Yuan secretly praised himself when he said this.

Tang Wenyun was also very satisfied, and said in his heart, you Lu Yuan can also speak, and praised my sister and my wife.

Only Tang Ying, who has been with Lu Yuan for a long time, is the smartest, and knowing the meaning of Lu Yuan's words, he couldn't help pinching Lu Yuan and said in a low voice: "Lu Lang, what are you talking nonsense." ”

"What am I talking about, can't you do it?"

Lu Yuan replied in a low voice.

"Ignore you."

Tang Ying pouted at Lu Yuan, and then he was tired of Yu's arms: "Sister-in-law, let's sleep together tonight, I want to whisper to you, it just so happens that I have something to ask you." ”

"Ouch, don't, you can say it now, what's the matter."

Yu pushed Tang Ying away, and took the initiative to hold Tang Ying in his arms as he spoke, caressing Tang Ying's hair like his own sister.

"I heard that Ling Zun is not in the Ministry of Industry Ren Langzhong, in charge of the Tongzhou Iron Works, Lu Lang is now planning to build an Iron Buddha Temple in Qingquan Village, by the way, ask the blacksmith to open a blacksmith shop, make farm tools for those military households or something, and now need a lot of iron ore to buy every month."

Tang Ying winked at Yu Shi as he spoke, and kept discharging.

Yu Shi gently patted Tang Ying's face: "I know what the hell you girl is thinking." ”

As he spoke, Yu pushed Tang Ying away and looked at Lu Yuan: "Uncle, how much iron ore do you want?" ”

Lu Yuan was already stunned at this time.

As far as he knew, the iron factory in Tongzhou was the largest iron factory in the imperial court today, and I don't know how many iron mines were transported to Tongzhou every year.

And now the father of the sister-in-law in front of him is actually in charge of the Tongzhou Iron Works!

If it weren't for Tang Ying speaking now, he wouldn't have known it.

Lu Yuan looked at Tang Wenyun and hurriedly made his eyes, meaning that he didn't know, he only knew that Tang Ying came back to help him do this, but he didn't say that he wanted to get through the state iron factory.

Tang Wenyun just smiled: "It doesn't matter, the officials of this Tongzhou Iron Works have always carried iron ore to sell, just like this cao boat transported into Beijing, since ancient times, some people have brought private grain into Beijing to sell." ”

Only then did Lu Yuan understand that daring to love this fake public and private matter was not a new thing in the Ming Dynasty, so he had no choice but to reply: "This depends on how much my sister-in-law can give?" ”

"I heard my father talk about iron ore, and now it is mainly sold to Jin merchants, but since my uncle wants it, I will sell it to my uncle for 10,000 catties every month, and it is better to sell it to my uncle than to let these iron ores out of the customs."

Yu Shi smiled.

10,000 catties?

Lu Yuan almost didn't dare to believe this number.

If there are 10,000 catties of iron ore raw materials every month, your own steel plant will not have to worry about raw materials, and you will not have to worry about equipping a larger army.

Lu Yuan hurriedly thanked Yu.

But at the same time, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Yu's words just now, sure enough, the dispute between the Ming and Qing dynasties was not so simple, the court officials didn't talk about buying and selling, and the Jin merchants also sold the iron ore to the customs.

The Ming Dynasty could not do an economic blockade of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the powerful productive forces cheapened the foreign enemy.

Businessmen are profit-oriented, and even many people regard doing business to make money as justifiable, thinking that as long as they don't break the law, they can do it, but sometimes businessmen's heavy profits can really cause disasters to society.

After all, human society is not an animal world after all, it can't just be the law of the jungle, if you want to avoid war, you have to maintain a basic balance, the gainers must be restrained, and give up some benefits to let the losers survive, at least obey the interests of the whole country, so as to maintain stability and obtain peace, otherwise once the rules are destroyed because of the crisis of survival, at that time, it doesn't matter if you come legally or not, just whether you are worth being robbed.

Lu Yuan has no time to condemn this society now, all he can do now is to strengthen himself.

Therefore, Lu Yuan's heart is more joyful now.

Tang Ying was even happier than Lu Yuan, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows at Lu Yuan and asked, "Lu Lang, how is it?" ”

"By example, I can do it when, tonight, or when I take a nap?"

Lu Yuan said with a low chuckle.

"I'd better wait until you write me a poem."

Tang Ying snorted.

"Poetry, poetry, is poetry so important, I'll let you have enough poetry in the future."

Lu Yuan said a word and continued to drink tea.

And here Tang Ying also continued to be coquettish to Yu's family, and Yu's also smiled: "It's only been a few days since I got married, and I know that I think about my husband's family, and my mother really raised you for nothing." ”

"What's the matter, I think about my mother and sister-in-law every day."

Tang Ying pouted.

Tang Wang's family was also overjoyed, called Tang Ying over, took him into his arms and screamed heartily.

Lu Yuan looked at this scene, but some tears of envy welled up in his eyes.

But when he thought about the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, when Jiannu slaughtered Linqing, he was not envious.

Lu Yuan stayed in the Tang Mansion for a long time, and because the Tang Wang family was retained, he and Tang Ying spent the night in the Tang Mansion.

Tang Ying really wanted to sleep with Yu.

Naturally, Lu Yuan couldn't accompany him.

"Lu Yuan, how about you and I sleep tonight, let's talk?"

Tang Wenyun walked over to Lu Yuan at this time and asked with a smile.
