"Soap stakes?" Zhao Shu frowned: "Xiao Wang has always been simple and thrifty, I'm afraid there is not so much gold and silver to invest in!" ”

Xiao Wang?!

It's all used to use this self-title, it seems that Sima Yun saw Xin Xi turn around and run, which still made Zhao Shu have some mustard for Xin Zhen, otherwise, Zhao Shu should call himself me! (The Northern Song Dynasty didn't call it so much loneliness, even the emperor only called me on formal occasions such as the last dynasty, and usually called himself me.) The prince is the same, the more formal one is to call himself Xiao Wang, and usually it is me or me. ）

Xin Zhen's brows jumped slightly: "Your Highness has misunderstood, in terms of gold and silver, Ouyang Gong has already invested 8,000 yuan plus a small shop on Renhe Street." ”

Zhao Shu looked up expressionlessly: "Oh? Ouyang Gong is also involved? ”

Xin Xi explained: "Ouyang Gong has accepted the boy as a protégé. ”

"It's favoritism!" Zhao Shu yelled.

Xin Zhen took a step back slightly, and said without humility or arrogance: "It's not favoritism, if this matter is not for the benefit of the country and the people, how can Ouyang Gong show favoritism?" Didn't His Royal Highness know that in the second year of Jiayou's tribute, when Ouyang Gong knew about the tribute, in order to avoid favoritism, he thought that Su Zizhan's "Treatise on Punishment and Reward for Loyalty" was written by Zeng Zigu, which made Su Shi the second place? ! ”

Zhao Shu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Ouyang Gongzhi is upright, Xiao Wang naturally knows, but where is your soap beneficial to the country and the people?" ”

I'm really tired, and I have to say what I said to Ouyang Xiu and them again. (The author is happy, and he can have another wave of water.) `(*∩_∩*)′）

Immediately, Xin Xi talked about the benefits of soap for the benefit of the country and the people, the improvement of people's livelihood, and the contribution to the national treasury, and even the idea that in the future, it can be sold to the Western Xia of the Liao State and even the Western Regions at a high price. (The author seems to be too upright...... ）

After listening to Xin Xi's narration, Zhao Shu's expression slowly changed, from the indifference at the beginning, to his burning eyes: "Eleven Lang, is this true?" Is it really just in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, which can increase the treasury by two million yuan a year?! Can it really be sold to Xixia in Liao at a high price?! ”

Xin Xi smiled faintly: "On the day of the final of the Football Tour Match, the kid auctioned soap in Xinjiazhuang, with an average of three taels of silver for a piece of soap, if it is sold to Western Xia and Liao, no matter what, one or two silver can still be sold." ”

"The cost is only ten cents?!" Zhao Shu's face was full of excitement, he couldn't help but be excited, this kind of economic war has precedent, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the hegemony of Qi came from this!

In particular, Zhao Shu also had the ambition to recover the rivers and mountains and expand the territory, in the original history, Zhao Shu reigned for four years, and after two years of pro-government, he launched a war against Western Xia!

Xin Zhen nodded: "Originally, the cost was only about five yuan, but if the kid wants to expand production, he will inevitably recruit people, so the cost will reach ten yuan." But in my Great Song Dynasty, the kid only plans to sell for twenty wen, or even lower! ”

"Good, good! Parity is good for people's livelihood, good! Zhao Shu's face was full of excitement: "Eleven Lang, tell me, how do you want me to buy shares?!" ”

It's good, the self-proclaimed change is me!

Xin Zhen smiled proudly: "The funds are enough with the eight thousand yuan provided by Ouyang Gong, so I would like to ask His Royal Highness to buy a shop for each of the boys in Sijing in exchange for 20% of the shares." ”

"You want me to use my power for personal gain?" Zhao Shu's eyes suddenly became fierce.

"What is selfishness? What is Gong? Xin Zhen raised his head suddenly: "If you can benefit the people's livelihood in the world, it is to use power for personal gain and selflessness!" ”

"Nonsense!" Zhao Shu snorted lightly: "Eleven Lang, you want to tell Xiao Wang about the way of white horses and non-horses?!" ”

The title has become a little king again.

Xin Xi was speechless for a while, Zhao Shu, this old boy is too advocating Confucianism, not the behavior of a righteous gentleman, it is estimated that there is no play.

Thinking of this, Xin Xi immediately shifted his attention and prepared to start with Confucianism: "No, if it can benefit the private and the country, it is selflessness, even Confucius once said so!" ”

"Oh? How did Xiao Wang not know that Confucius had said such things? ”

Xin Xi smiled faintly: "The kid has been crazy for three years, and he doesn't know much about the Confucian classics anymore." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shu thought that Xin Zhen was going to admit his mistake and admit defeat, and his face gradually softened.

But at this time, Xin Zhen's words changed: "But even so, the kid still vaguely remembers that Zilu rescued the slaves of Lu in a foreign country, but did not want to reward them, so he was scolded by Confucius, the kid can't remember it clearly, I don't know if His Highness remembers?!" ”

"Hehehe...... Hehe......" Zhao Shu smiled a little weirdly.

"Your Highness, is the kid wrong?" Xin Zhen was a little puzzled.

Zhao Shu stretched out his hand abruptly and pointed at Xin Xuan's head: "Xin Shiyi, how did you learn the scriptures and righteousness of your sons?" In the Analects, it is clear that Zilu receives the ox, and Zigong redeems the people without receiving the gold! ”

In the Analects, the story is that Zilu rescued a drowning man, and the rescued person gave Zilu a cow as a token of gratitude, and Zilu accepted it. Confucius's comment on the incident of "Zilu saved the drowning of cattle" was: The people of Lu will like to save people in danger from now on.

Coincidentally, Zigong, another student of Confucius, was rewarded by the government for redeeming himself for a slave, but he refused to accept the reward, believing that it was immoral to do good deeds in return. Confucius said: There will be no one in the country of Lu who is willing to do such a good thing of redeeming one's life.

Therefore, "Zilu is persuaded by the ox to be virtuous, and Zigong is humble and stops good".

Xin Xi was embarrassed for a while, this is all due to the lack of a system!

If the system was there, wouldn't he even be able to figure out how to get a cow?

However, it is also strange that Xin Zhen was not serious about studying back then.

Smiling awkwardly, Xin Xi said: "It's all the same, it's all the same, anyway, it's selfishness that benefits the country, as Mencius said, poverty is ...... Poor is ......"

Nervous for a moment, Xin Xi even got stuck with this famous sentence.

Zhao Shu blew his beard and glared, and said loudly: "If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world!" ”

After Zhao Shu finished speaking, he was still angry, and stretched out his hand and pointed at Xin Xi: "Xin Shiyi, if you are my son, you see that the old man will not kill you!" ”

Xin Shu was slightly stunned, but his heart warmed up inexplicably, if he didn't regard himself as his own, how could Zhao Shu use such a tone to him?

Thinking of this, Xin Xi immediately said solemnly: "Yes, it's all the boy's fault, and the kid must study hard in the future!" ”

Zhao Shu was stunned, nodded and said, "You go back first, I'll look back at the store, if it's done, I'll send someone to inform you." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!" Xin Zhen was happy in his heart, but it was done.

Now, after getting the money tomorrow, we will start to build a small workshop!

Arching his hand, Xin Xi said goodbye: "Xin Xi retires!" ”

"Go, go, go!" Zhao Shu waved his hand, looking disgusted.

After finishing the business, Xin Xi suddenly remembered Sima Yun again, and his heart seemed to be stuffed with cotton.

Should I go and see her?!

Must go!

He always felt that he didn't see a clear word today, and he was afraid that Sima Yun would hide as long as he saw him in the future!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Xin Zhen turned around.

"What?"

"I don't know where Ah Xue is, I want to go and see ......" Xin Xi said very unconfidently.

Zhao Shu looked up at Xin Xi carefully, and said, "Turn left at the garden gate, turn left, turn left, then turn right, and the yard with a plum tree is!" ”

Xin Xi couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, what is called turning left, turning left, turning left and then turning right?

"Go ahead!" Zhao Shu waved his hand and walked towards the guest room alone.

Xin Zhen's face was speechless, so he had to walk towards the garden gate, and at the same time silently recited in his mind: turn left, turn left, turn left and turn right...... Yard with plum blossom tree......
