Chapter 20 Fooling the King Duan into the thief ship
"What Lin Xian's nephew said is extremely true."
Lin Mu's words made Liu Jiangbai seem to have an understanding, and King Duan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Bachelor Chang's face turned red at this time, Lin Mu's words completely ruined his excuse, if the arithmetic was equal to mathematics, he would be embarrassed today.
It's just that to his surprise, Lin Mu didn't ask a similar question, but said: "Since Master Chang is proficient in the subset of scriptures and history, then the pair should not bully Chang Shi." “
"It's nature." Master Chang breathed lightly, he was confident that he was still not afraid of Lin Mu.
Lin Mu continued: "Then Lin has a pair, please tell me right, Shanglian, Wangjianglou, Wangjiangliu, Wangjianglou Wangjiangliu, Wangjianglou Wangjiangliu, Jianglou is eternal, Jiangliu is eternal." “
"It's... Let me think about it for a moment. Fine beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Bachelor Chang's forehead, and he wanted to go to the toilet in a hurry, and secretly scolded Lin Mu in his heart for being vicious and poisonous.
Seeing this, King Duan couldn't help but show a sneer, he knew that this Chang Bachelor's stomach was empty, but it was just the eyeliner in the palace.
Thinking of this, he felt more and more that Lin Mu was becoming more and more cordial, so he said angrily to Master Chang: "Don't you go back to the house, isn't it embarrassing enough?" ”
Master Chang couldn't wait to find a rat hole to get into, and glanced at Lin Mu resentfully, and he turned around and left in a gloomy manner.
"Hahaha...... Joyfully! Liu Jiangbai suddenly laughed at this time, and he said to Lin Mu: "Congratulations to Lin Xian, nephew, from today onwards, you will be the palace attendant." “
Zhao Ji is happier than Liu Jiangbai, he was bored to death after coming to Jiangning for a year, and now that he meets such an interesting person as Lin Mu, he is like picking up a treasure.
"Lin Shi, are you willing to preach for this king?" Before Lin Mu could speak, Zhao Ji was a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, he was just an idle king, and he didn't have any power in his hands.
Lin Mu is used to being cheeky, so naturally he will not refuse this good thing: "Thanks to His Royal Highness's love, Lin Mou is disrespectful." ”
"Good, good, good." Zhao Ji's eyebrows fluttered excitedly.
Liu Rumian's intestines are now repentant, today's Lin Mu gave him a new understanding, he walked in front of Lin Mu, "Brother Lin, Rumian is wrong, I hope that Brother Lin can teach Rumian regardless of his past suspicions." “
Liu Jiangbai also persuaded: "Nephew Lin Xian, if you like to follow the back of your ass when you pee, now you can't bear to ignore him?" ”
Although he is extremely strict with Liu Rumian on weekdays, Liu Rumian is his only son after all, and he still looks towards Liu Rumian from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Mu knew that Liu Jiangbai would intercede, he said: "Mistakes can be changed, good is great, since Uncle Liu has also spoken, I will teach you." ”
"Thank you, teacher." Liu Rumian, who was still a little wilted just now, suddenly became alive.
Liu Jiangbai is down-to-earth now, his goal has been achieved, thinking that there are still many government affairs to deal with, he said: "Your Highness, the lower officials still have important matters, so they will retire first." ”
Zhao Ji still wanted to see the shuttle loom, and didn't want to go back immediately, so he said: "Duke Liu doesn't have to accommodate this king, and this king and Rumian will go back later." “
As soon as Liu Jiangbai left, Zhao Ji and Liu Rumian seemed to have taken off the shackles, and Liu Rumian said: "Teacher, can you let the disciples see the shuttle loom?" ”
Zhao Ji was also bright-eyed, they had already heard Liu Jiangbai say about this matter, but they didn't have time to see it with their own eyes.
Lin Mu was very helpless when he looked at the two of them, but he was relieved to think that the two were only fourteen years old, and they were junior high school students in contemporary times.
"Yes." Lin Mu got out of the way and let the two enter the weaving mill.
Coming to the loom, Zhao Ji asked: "Lin Shi said, what is the reason for the spring of this shuttle loom?" “
At this time, Lin Mu took out a spare spring from the corner and showed it to the two: "A spring is simply a mechanical part that uses elasticity to work. “
After that, Lin Mu pinched the spring, and the spring was compressed and quickly returned to its original form.
Zhao Ji and Liu Rumian saw the spring for the first time, and immediately let out an exclamation of amazement, "Liu Fu Yin said that no craftsman in the Hua Dynasty can forge this small spring, is this true?" “
"Seriously." Lin Mu explained: "Forging this kind of spring requires elastic steel and multiple processes, and I don't know the process of forging it. “
"Does the teacher know the method of forging?" Liu Rumian asked, and Zhao Ji also looked at Lin Mu at this time, hoping to know the answer.
Lin Mu nodded noncommittally.
Zhao Ji and Liu Rumian showed a hint of excitement in their eyes, it seemed that their Lin Mu's ability was just the tip of the iceberg.
But thinking of something, Zhao Ji sighed slightly, "It's a pity that my father disdains Western learning, otherwise Lin Shi would only be able to do business in Jiangning with such talent." ”
In a few words, Lin Mu saw that King Duan was inclined to change the law, and it is estimated that because of this, he was driven out of Lin'an and opened a mansion in Jiangning.
In the Hua Dynasty, Lin'an is the capital, and Jiangning is the second capital, the status is second only to the capital, the Hua Dynasty will be the royal family mainly in captivity in these two places, although they are all captive, but a south and a north can also see the difference.
"Your Highness, why should you lament, commerce can also strengthen the country." Lin Mu Zhengse.
Liu Rumian remembered that his father had repeated Lin Mu's words, so he said: "What does the teacher mean by industry and prosperity? ”
"Exactly." Lin Mu showed a teachable look, he said: "Commerce is the economy, the economy is the lifeblood of the country, now the Western powers come to the Chinese Dynasty to do just business, such as today's cloth, the import of a large number of cheap foreign cloth has caused the Chinese Dynasty cloth industry to be in jeopardy, if you can't resist the dumping of foreign cloth, the Chinese Dynasty weaving industry will inevitably decline." ”
After a pause, he continued: "Once this happens, it will inevitably cause the outflow of silver from the Hua Dynasty, and from then on, the Hua Dynasty will become poor, and the West will become rich, and if it continues, the country will be poor and the people will be weak, and it will be difficult to maintain the army, and then the Hua Dynasty will only be reduced to the flesh of others." ”
Zhao Ji suddenly broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and he said urgently: "What can I do about this!" Now the Jin Dynasty in the north is eyeing the tiger, and there are Xiyi crossing the sea outside, hey! It's a pity that the ancestors of the Hua Dynasty taught that the princes could only eat, drink and have fun, and could not do anything. ”
"Why should Your Highness be arrogant, if Your Highness has the ambition of strengthening the country, it may not be impossible to strengthen the country?" Lin Mu had a plan.
In the Chinese Dynasty, the imperial family was forbidden to participate in the government affairs, and they enjoyed inflated official positions and vast fertile land, but they could only eat, drink and have fun, and at the same time, it was strictly forbidden to associate with officials outside the captive land, which can be said to be basically equivalent to social waste.
However, although there are many regulations governing the clan, there is no prohibition on the clan from doing business, after all, the princes of the Chinese Dynasty are very high, and they can be clothed and fed without doing anything, and no one is willing to do this hard work.
"What do you think about Lin Shi?" Zhao Ji heard the sound outside the strings.
For Lin Mu, Zhao Ji is undoubtedly an aspiring young man in the Chinese Dynasty, he said: "Industry is the curve to save the country, why not Your Highness and the lower officials for the Hua Dynasty to establish a general industrial system like the West, so that if the Chinese Dynasty is in trouble, you can turn industry into national strength at any time." ”
Zhao Ji's heart was moved, and he finally found that there were more interesting and meaningful things besides eating, drinking, and having fun, "What do you want this king to do?" ”
"Xia Guan is preparing to establish the Lin family's firm, and I hope His Royal Highness can be named." Lin Mu was cautious and tentative.
"I see, it's a trivial matter." Zhao Ji patted his chest, he didn't know that he was fooled by Lin Mu into getting on the thief ship.
