It's not the first time Cha Wu has seen Fusu, but this is the first time I've had a close encounter, and I can't help but start to look at Fusu carefully.

"Huada probably won't be coming, let's have a table." The two waited for a while, but they didn't see Hua Zhen coming, and Che Wu spoke.

After thinking about it for a while, Fusu understood that the county guard and the supervisor Shi were born to deal with each other, and Hua Zhen probably wouldn't have attended Che Wu's banquet when he first took office.

Fusu nodded in agreement.

Compared to Fusu, who didn't like the banquet customs of the Warring States Period, Che Wu was very good at it, all the meals were in accordance with etiquette, and he also specially prepared songs and dances to cheer up.

"I heard that Gongzi intends to open a shop in Handan, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

As soon as Che Wu spoke, Fusu realized that Che Wu knew that Hua Zhen would not attend, but also invited himself and Hua Zhen together, this is the drunkard's intention is not to drink, he doesn't care whether Hua Zhen attends at all, as long as he attends, as for the purpose of inviting himself, it is probably in this shop.

Fusu shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Lord County Shou doesn't know yet, although the shop has something to do with me, it is no longer my property, and I have already sold the shop a year ago." ”

"Huh?" Che Wu was stunned, a little disappointed.

Fusu has the ability to turn stone into gold, which is well known in Xianyang, from the beginning of the prince's car and other things, so that Xianyang's merchants made a lot of money in various places, and later paper and books, all kinds of farm tools, novelty department stores, and even the food in the prince's mansion have become the most sought-after things in Xianyang. Zhao Di is now poor, Che Wu wanted to use the power of the shop to restore the popularity of Handan as the former capital of Zhao State, and get the production of Handan up as soon as possible, but he didn't expect Fusu to tell him that the shop was no longer Fusu's.

"But I should still have some affection with the shop, if there is anything about Mr. Che, you might as well talk about it first."

Che Wu's face was happy, and he had some understanding in his heart, but he didn't think about it, and said: "Handan is located in the plain, the fields are vast and fertile, and it is a good good land, but now the population is sparse, I heard that the various farm tools produced in Gongzi's shop are very helpful to increase the income of the field, and I want to ask Gongzi to order the shop to sell some ......."

"Lord Che isn't joking, is he?" Fusu was a little puzzled.

Che Wu was stunned, not knowing what Fusu meant by this.

"Bo to improve the workshop of agricultural tools, there is no difficulty in imitation, I heard that Guo Zong of Handan is a rich businessman, Zhao State's iron smelting is almost monopolized by it, and the wealth of his descendant Guo Kai is also rare in the world, how can you be willing to seek the near and far."

Che Wu smiled bitterly: "The Guo family has a good relationship with the Zhao royal family, but the Zhao country has perished, and now it is not punished even if it is the king's grace, the right to smelt iron has been withdrawn, and now it is just an ordinary merchant." Moreover, the Guo family has been moved to Xianyang. ”

Che Wu felt that this could not explain the reason why he asked Fusu, and continued: "Although it is not difficult to imitate the farm tools in the shop, but now almost all the blacksmiths in the Qin State have been recruited by the king, except for Gongzi's workshop, it is almost impossible to see a blacksmith in other places, and where are there people who imitate the farm tools of the workshop." The old farm tools in the farmer's house in Handan County are all borrowed from each other, not to mention the new farm tools produced by the Bowang Workshop. ”

"And the iron business needs to be allowed by the state, and no one in Handan has such conditions......

Fusu suddenly realized that he took it for granted that he could produce and improve agricultural tools, but ignored how many favorable conditions he brought to him as the eldest son of King Qin that ordinary people did not have, iron is a strategic material, and ordinary businessmen have no right to operate. His face was a little unsightly, but he didn't expect that he would inadvertently become the object of hatred of ordinary businessmen, but he still thought that he had given Xiling a lot of advanced business ideas, so that the shop had such good performance.

"I understand, I will ask the shop to bring some farm tools to Handan, but according to Mr. Che, the farmer does not have the financial resources to buy new farm tools."

"This matter is not difficult, Handan is already the king's land, and the policy of persuading farmers established by the Shang monarch is also applicable in Handan."

Fusu nodded, this is to use the power of the government to help the farmers use new farm tools.

"Lord Che is so loyal to the king, and he was a model for the county at that time, but what is the need, if I can do it, I will never refuse."

Che Wu held this banquet not to tie up with Fusu, but to restore Handan, and asked for Fusu, of course, Fusu did not hesitate to give Che Wu some help.

"I heard that Gongzi once presented the king with a waterwheel for irrigation, which is quite effective in fighting drought, and Zhao Di has been suffering from drought for several years, and I don't know ......"

Hearing Che Wu's words, Fusu was a little embarrassed, the waterwheel did not have the effect of drought resistance, but it was more labor-saving for irrigation. Perhaps because the foundation of the workshop is not enough, he asked Zhang Huo to study drought-resistant facilities, but there was no progress. If there is no water in the river, or if there is not enough water, the waterwheel becomes an ornament. There are eight rivers in Guanzhong, and there are water conservancy projects built for hundreds of years, and the water source is sufficient, so that the waterwheel can play a role. Fusu was not sure if the waterwheel would still work if it was moved to Handan.

"I can send a few workers over for Lord Che to dispatch, but Lord Che should listen to the opinions of these workers before building the water wheel, the water wheel has limited use, and it is not easy to build, so Lord Che still needs to do more consideration."

"Definitely, definitely." Che Wu was excited, just now he thought Fusu was unwilling, but he didn't expect to agree so quickly.

"I also have something I want to say to Lord Che." Fusu thought about it for a long time, unsure whether he should say these things to Che Wu now.

"Childe, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Che Wu's heart has been resolved, his heart is happy, and his pride is also born.

"I know the policy of the merchant king, there is a lot of discrimination against the merchants, but you yourself just said, there is something to ask the shop, you should know that the merchant and the business are not all bad things, and please ask Lord Che to give the shop more convenience in his office."

Che Wu regretted it a little, it was not what he said about heavy agriculture and suppressing business, but the king of Qin has always done this, and he shouldn't have said big things just now.

"This ......"

"I'm not asking Lord Che to take care of the shops, but I hope that Lord Che will be more lenient with the merchants, and they will also play a big role in the recovery of Handan." Fusu really wanted to explain the important role of business to Che Wu, but after all, Che Wu is the head of a county, so it's okay to give some advice by himself, but being a teacher is not qualified now.

"I won't deliberately make things difficult for merchants, but if the operation of merchants affects agricultural production, I will naturally not sit idly by." Cha Wu didn't make any promises.

"That's enough." Fusu said in a low voice.
