In the quiet night, Wang Yuyan wrapped in a cloak and walked aimlessly on the bluestone road. I don't know what's wrong today, I'm lying in bed tossing and turning, and the more I want to sleep, the more I can't sleep.

The moon was high, the breeze was gentle, and when I came to the moon gate, I heard a rustling sound, like the sound of a tree branch breaking. Several low cedar trees were close together, and through the gap, Wang Yuyan saw a person.

His Royal Highness is diligent, it is late at night, and he is still practicing. It was the first time Wang Yuyan saw Zhao Yougong practicing, and under curiosity, she stood behind the fir tree and watched quietly. Wang Yuyan knows a lot about martial arts in the world, but Zhao Yougong's exercises are very surprising. At first glance, Zhao Yougong seems to be circling in circles, one move and one style, like an old man stumbling when it is slow, and like lightning when it is fast. Although it was some distance away, Wang Yuyan still felt a wave of heat blowing on her cheeks.

Is this the Flame Palm? What a strong internal force.

Although I don't know the detailed exercises of the Flame Palm, just looking at the strength of each of these styles, I know that this palm technique must need strong internal force to support it. A seemingly ordinary, but extremely domineering kung fu, who created this flaming palm, and why had he never heard of it before?

Zhao Yougong's figure is getting faster and faster, and Wang Yuyan's eyes are also full of energy, and even a little surprised. When she saw those leaves and dead grass turn into a ball under the operation of internal force, she opened her mouth slightly and almost screamed.

The internal force is released, turning the virtual into reality, but I didn't expect that there really is such a magical exercise in the world. In the past, Wang Yuyan had heard of the Six-Vein Divine Sword, but she had never seen it, but today Zhao Yougong showed the exercises. But it has the same effect as the six-vein divine sword.

Zhao Yougong slowly calmed down the somewhat chaotic internal force. Compared to the moves of Prajna. The Flame Palm pays too much attention to the control of internal forces, and it is precisely he Zhao who lacks in this aspect. The deep internal force does not mean that you will definitely be able to control the internal force, it seems that this flame palm needs to be studied a little more.

Feeling a faint sound of breathing, he glanced to the side, Zhao Yougong raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Come out, how long are you going to watch it?" ”

Wang Yuyan was not surprised at all. Zhao Yougong has such profound skills, if he can't detect her, it would be a little strange. He walked out from behind the cedar tree, bowed slightly, and asked softly, "Your Highness, is this the Flame Palm that Mr. Dugu often mentions?" ”

"Well, you've been watching it for so long, but what do you think?"

Wang Yuyan sniffed, maybe it was a little cold. She braced her hands and wrapped her cloak vigorously. Xiu's eyebrows frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, she said, "This flame palm seems simple, but it is quite heavy, especially outside the internal force, it is also rare. However, the slave family feels that His Royal Highness seems to be very rusty, when the internal force is outside, the breath is a little chaotic, if the internal force is poor, the cultivation of this flame palm is likely to go crazy. The slave family was pondering just now, since His Highness is not very proficient, why not try to concentrate the internal force on a single palm every time? ”

Listening to Wang Yuyan's comments, Zhao Yougong also had to secretly admire, no wonder Dugu always occupies Wang Yuyan, although this woman doesn't know martial arts, her insights into martial arts are really amazing. No matter who it is, if Wang Yuyan is on the side, his skills will definitely be able to make great progress.

The internal force is concentrated in one place, and there is no need for multiple forces, and just now I have the power of my palms, here, and there, and after practicing for a while, the internal force is a little chaotic. If you really force it to practice again, once you don't control your internal strength, you really have the possibility of going mad.

According to what Wang Yuyan said, Zhao Yougong exhaled, his legs were slightly apart, his right hand was the palm, and the internal force was slowly concentrated in the right palm. Looking at the spruce not far away, he suddenly raised his right hand and pushed it out violently, and a huge force surged out instantly. A force slowly poured in from his right palm, and his arm gradually felt warm, and then this warmth slowly spread throughout his body.

It's really amazing, the internal force is retracted and released freely, and in a blink of an eye, Zhao Yougong feels as if he has stepped into a new world, or a new realm.

Unloading, force, retraction, heart touched, Zhao Yougong once again to the spruce to push out a palm, this time he was not in a hurry to retract the strength, until the spruce shook slightly, then suddenly retracted, at this time only heard a click, the spruce responded to the sound of breaking into two.

Zhao Yougong was a little excited, but Wang Yuyan's heart was extremely complicated. The spruce is two or three zhang away, and it was broken with one palm, my cousin's kung fu is good, but he can't do it outside the internal force, let alone control it freely. If there is any martial function compared to the Flame Palm, it is only the Dali Duan Clan's Six-Vein Divine Sword and the Beggars' Eighteen Dragon Descending Palms.

"Wang Yuyan, you are really a martial arts genius, you don't practice martial arts, it's a pity!"

Leaving a fluttering word, Zhao Yougong stretched out his arm and went back to the house, but Wang Yuyan stayed in the courtyard in a daze, she didn't like martial arts at all, if it wasn't for her cousin, who would want to study these things? Compared with those magical and mysterious martial arts, she prefers female popularity, music theory, or poetry and songs.

Early the next morning, Zhao Yougong came to Zhang Yi and Fan Zeng to discuss the drought situation in Tongzhou, in fact, compared with the same state capital, the drought in other places in Guanzhong is more severe, but now Zhao Yougong has not bothered to care so much, as long as there is no big mess in his own acre and three points of land. If there is a drought, then the best way is to dig a well, but the terrain in Guanzhong is special, and sometimes you may not be able to dig up water for several months. Of course, there is another way to divert Fenshui and Weishui, but if it is not necessary, Zhao Yougong really does not dare to do this.

It is not difficult to dig ditches to divert Fen and Wei water, and it can also solve the immediate urgency, but the problem is that once the Yellow River floods, the dug ditches will become a deadly river that will drown itself. The Great Song Dynasty is not as good as later generations, once the Yellow River floods, it is beyond the power of manpower to stop it.

The drought in the same state capital is more severe zhòng is Baishui County, don't look at the name of the county with a water word, but Baishui County is notoriously short of water, the south of Baishui is Jinli Mountain, this mountain is divided into two Baishui River, so when there is less rain, the northern section of Baishui River will dry up, drinking water is a big problem at this time, let alone irrigation. Now in the spring planting season, the people need water to water the white ground. Even if you don't water the ground. After sowing, some should be watered.

Spring planting is very important. If the problem of spring planting cannot be solved, then let alone the autumn harvest. Recently, because of the drought, Fan Zeng has been sad, and Zhang Yi is not much better.

In the face of natural disasters, anyone is insignificant, even if a talent like Zhang Yi is a little powerful, he has a feeling of nowhere to go.

The three of them also looked dignified, and Zhang Yi frowned. sighed, "Your Highness, the safest way now is to organize the people to dig wells, but the drought in Baishui County is severe, and considering the difficulty of digging wells, I am afraid it will cost a lot." ”

Rubbing his forehead, Zhao Yougong said helplessly, "If there is no other way, just dig a well, no matter how much it costs." You have to get through this first. ”

It takes money to dig wells, especially in Whitewater County. It needs a lot of money, but Fan Zeng was not happy at all, pondered for a while, frowned and said, "Your Highness, Fan Mou has also thought about digging wells." According to previous estimates, in order to solve the drought in Baishui County, at least 160 wells must be dug, and the cost of labor is about 20,000 yuan, which is a lot of money. Recently, because of the conscription and the purchase of food, the remaining money in the state capital is simply not enough. ”

Zhao Yougong was secretly speechless, his eyes were still in disbelief, "Isn't this just digging a well, and you need so much money?" ”

Seeing Zhao Xiaojunwang's reaction, Zhang Yi explained with a smile, "Your Highness doesn't know, Guanzhong is not as deep as other places, the water level is extremely deep, there is a lot of sand, and when digging a well, you also need to fix the wall of the well, so it will cost a lot." The 20,000 guan that Fan Zhizhou said is already optimistic, if there is an unexpected situation, the cost will only be more, not less! ”

If Fan Zeng said it alone, Zhao Yougong would still doubt it, but Zhang Yi also said so, he just didn't believe it. It is not easy to know that it is not easy to dig a well in Guanzhong, but it is too expensive to spend so much. Zhao Yougong can take out such a sum of money, but it is not a way to keep him paying out of his own pocket. There will always be a time when that batch of gold will run out, and if he doesn't want to find a way, he Zhao will really have to sit and eat nothing.

If you want money, the method of collecting taxes is estimated to be useless, and the same state capital is not Kaifeng Mansion, and you can bear it if you arbitrarily distribute some taxes in Kaifeng Mansion. But if some taxes are added to the same state capital, the already small number of merchants will become even more scarce.

You can't add taxes to it, but King Zhao Xiaojun feels that if you want to make money, you have to work these rich businessmen, and if you want to make money on the common people, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, unless you learn from bandits to rob it.

"Fan Zhizhou, how many rich families are there in our territory with the state?"

As soon as King Zhao Xiaojun's words came out, Fan Zeng's face froze, how many rich people? Could it be that His Highness is going to play that trick of robbing the rich and helping the poor?

"Your Highness, this matter must not be allowed, most of the businessmen in the same state are outside, and some local rich families have also lived here for generations, if these rich families are driven away, who will dare to come to us in the future?"

Looking at Fan Zeng's excited appearance, Zhao Yougong felt inexplicable, "Fan Zhizhou, where do you want to go?" This king said that he was going to forcibly collect money? ”

"Huh? What does Your Highness mean? ”

"Fan Zhizhou, you will be more flexible in the future, it will definitely not work to find those rich people to collect taxes and money, but you can do business with them!"

Trade? Fan Zeng couldn't get around the bend, but Zhang Yi was interested, took a sip of hot tea, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, you continue to say, how to do business?" ”

"In fact, it's very simple, we can sell whatever our state capital has, these rich families are not short of money or food, but what is lacking? It's nothing more than more convenience in doing business, and then there's a name! Zhao Yougong said carefully, "If we promise tax exemption and exemption for the border of the same state capital, or give the name of an official businessman, I think there will be many people who will be tempted." ”

In fact, Zhao Yougong's idea is not new, this is the same as the later generations of businessmen to pay money to buy a pass for one year and two years, but now it is the Great Song Dynasty, as long as it is a Song people, most of them can't jump out of the shackles of the times, so Zhao Xiaojunwang's idea is particularly novel, and even a little out of line. The smile on Fan Zeng's face didn't see much, selling officials? His Highness can think of it.

Zhang Yi is not as old-fashioned as Fan Zeng, he squinted and pondered, and then clapped his hands and applauded, "Haha, this method is very wonderful, Fan Zhizhou, please give a post to all the big families in the same state capital, and Zhang Mou can also make a deal with these people!" ”

Zhao Yougong felt a lot more relaxed, with Zhang Yi personally going to do this, I think the effect will not be bad, when it comes to pitting people, Zhang Shiping has more ideas.

Zhang Yi and Zhao Yougong both supported, but Fan Zeng couldn't either, so he had to reluctantly respond.

Shen Shi moment, staring at the warm sunshine, Zhao Yougong asked Ah Jiu and Hu Sanniang to lead the horse out of the palace, compared to the drought, the matter of the Fumin Salt and Iron Prison was more urgent.

Stepping out of the house, he was just about to get on the horse, but he heard the sound of the horse's hooves behind him, and Azhu walked out slowly with the reins of the horse.

Looking back, Zhao Yougong blinked and smiled, "Didn't you go?" ”

"Yesterday doesn't mean today!"

Yesterday doesn't mean today? If it has a deep meaning, Azhu's mind is really hard to fathom.

From Tongzhou to Fumin Town, the distance is not short, and this road needs to pass through Fenglingdu, Tongguan, Luonan County, I hope nothing happens. (To be continued!)
