Hou Xuanyan has been stranded in Suzhou for a month, and after the Northern Expedition, he rarely took a long vacation, and it was a few days of happy peace.

I don't care if I let go of the government, I have a little elixir, Jinling can sit back and relax...

But starting May Enke again, it's not a small elixir that can call the shots, this kind of thing still has to sit in the court and preside over the overall situation.

Since the birth of the imperial examination system, it has opened a way for the poor to rise, but the effect is also limited. After all, who is really poor, who has the spare money to let their children read and write. You must know that the cost of private schools in this era is not low.

The abolition of the Eight Shares is not only as simple as changing the exam questions, but also involves a change in the way of education. Although the enrollment of the medical hall and the craftsman hall is already for the children who are bitter, it is still not enough. It is already an old calendar to use the policy of fooling the people to ensure the stability of the rule, and the wisdom of opening up the people is imminent.

First change the ultimate goal - the imperial examination, and then logically change it to serve the imperial examination, teaching and educating people for the purpose of the imperial examination.

The road from Suzhou to Jinling is wide and wide, and there are smooth official roads everywhere. Walking on such a road, even the horses pulling the cart are much more cheerful and happy.

This is the first road to be built, which was tamped with loess, and in some places even stone slabs and bricks were used.

Hou Xuanyan sat in the carriage, he and Huang Ying'er and Gu Ling'er were in a carriage, and there was a car behind him Bian Yujing and two maids. Bian Yujing is different from Chen Yuanyuan, she is Hou Xuanyan's concubine, so she was brought this time. Although the status of the concubine is not high, the lord who can't stand him is too prominent, and Bian Yujing is also rising. As for Yang Fujin's mother and daughter, because they had just given birth, they were not suitable for a long journey, so they still stayed in Suzhou to recuperate.

Hou Xuanyan felt that there were still some bumps, and couldn't help but say: "It would be nice if there was cement." After finishing speaking, Hou Xuanyan was a little ashamed, not to mention cement, even if it was the soap that rotted the street in the later generations, he wouldn't be able to. Others such as gunpowder, steam engines, rubber... He didn't know anything about it.

"What is cement?" Curious baby Gu Ling'er raised her little face and asked.

"It's a kind of mud, it's very hard when it dries, and it can smash walnuts." Hou Xuanyan said casually.

"What's so great about that, walnuts don't taste good."

Lifting the curtain and looking out, there are many pedestrians on the road from Suzhou to Jinling.

Because of the imperial court's commercial tax reform, the treasury was so full that there was nowhere to spend the money, and although the war in the north cost a lot, the money obtained from the purge was enough. Hou Xuanyan, who had a lot of money, did not bury himself in the ground like the Jin merchants, nor did he squander it on building palaces, he began to pave roads and build bridges.

After the war, many refugees lost their homes, and it was difficult for them to earn a living again. In particular, it takes time to measure the land and take the population inventory, and they will inevitably not be able to distribute the land during this time, and they will not be able to sit here and wait for the imperial court to help.

Cash-for-work is the best way, and infrastructure is being built everywhere in the whole land of China. Moreover, Hou Xuanyan piloted in Suzhou, headed by the Gu family, and raised many large factories. The huge demand for cash-for-work materials provided enough orders at the beginning of the start-up of these factories. Take the "Jinsu Highway" from Jinling to Suzhou as an example, there is the shadow of the Gu family everywhere.

Walking to the Wangting, you are about to leave Suzhou, and a stone tablet on the side of the road is engraved with two tree-like signs that are straight to the sky, and Siling is written below.

Gu Ling'er got out of Hou Xuanyan's arms, clapped her hands and smiled when she saw it: "Look at it, look at it, that's our family's sign." ”

Hou Xuanyan touched her head and asked, "This sign is so special, does it mean that it will soar into the sky, and it should be straight and unbent like a ginkgo tree?" ”

Gu Ling'er pursed her lips and said triumphantly: "The master said, that's because when I saw my husband, I tied two pigtails. After speaking, he grabbed his hair with his hands, pinched out the shape of two small braids, and asked, "How is it, does it look like it?" ”

Huang Ying'er covered her stomach, her pretty face was red with a smile, and she laughed a lot with tears. Hou Xuanyan pursed his mouth like a grinning pomegranate, with a look of contempt, which is too classless.

After Huang Ying'er finished laughing, she looked at the sign and the "Siling" below, and suddenly felt a little envious. Moved his butt and rubbed it to Hou Xuanyan's side, and said coquettishly: "People also want a factory like this, I have thought of the name, just call it Sanying." ”

Hou Xuanyan was even more contemptuous, and said sarcastically: "Sanying? What about Lu Bu, what are you going to do with a factory? ”

Huang Ying'er was in high spirits, and under her crescent-like eyes, there were two teardrops hanging, but her face was full of smiles: "What makes money?" What to make money and what to do! ”

"Look at what you can." Hou Xuanyan looked at her and asked, "It takes a lot of people to build a factory, do you have any of them?" ”

"Why not? My father's old ministry has been coming to me one after another since four years ago, and now there are hundreds. Three hundred or four hundred, oops, Fan Xiong told me once, but people don't go out, they all forget, anyway, there are many people. ”

As soon as she said Hou Xuanyan, she remembered that there are indeed many old departments of Yasukuni Gonghuang Degong. Especially that Fan Xiong, who has the same physique as Hu Bawan, and his muscles are as tall as tree roots, which looks a little scary. At the beginning of Huang Yinger's adoption of the gift, these burly men wore red ribbon flowers, sprinkled sugar with a smile along the way, and made a foreign appearance in Suzhou City.

Huang Ying'er dressed him up, sat on Hou Xuanyan's lap facing him, her eyes were dripping, and she said excitedly: "Say it quickly, tell people quickly, what factory makes money?" ”

The family system that prevailed at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and all the closest henchmen and horses under the generals were similar to the family members in their mansions. These people are treated the best and the most loyal, taking Wu Sangui as an example, he has a lot of soldiers and horses under his hands, but every time he cares most about his own family and soldiers.

Huang Degong is one of the four towns, and there are a lot of soldiers in this kind of family, so letting such a group of fighting men be idle all day long is a hidden danger sooner or later, so it is really better to let them go out and do something. Thinking of this, Hou Xuanyan said seriously: "Maritime businessmen, maritime merchants are the most profitable. ”

"Good! Our Sanying factory is a maritime businessman. Huang Ying'er's willow-like eyebrows frowned slightly, and said, "What do you do with the maritime merchants?" ”

Hou Xuanyan naturally didn't have the patience to teach her to do business, and he was not very clever, and this student must be a three-minute heat. simply allowed her to go to Jinling, and let Gong Zifang, the god of wealth in Jiading, take her men to build a factory.
