Thank you for the reward that the book friend spear is still around! By the way, let's declare that the positioning of this book from the beginning is a cool text and no abuse

On the other side, Fan Jia glanced at the crowded Su Market after watching Zhao Wuxian's car drive away, his eyes gloomy. He was probably the first to notice that wheat flour was sold in the market, and he had already sent someone to observe and find out the price, transportation and other matters.
Because, he understands, this is a business that is more than ten times more profitable. It's just that after asking his own millet merchants, he learned that this kind of wheat flour, which is as fine as clay, will never be made if he is pounded by his subordinate concubines, so what new process must have been used by Zhao Wuxian, it is difficult to say that it is related to the more than ten Lu potters who bought it!
So, after Fan Jia returned to the craftsman's workshop in Qitao City, he beckoned the city officials who belonged to Fan's family to come over and instructed: "I look at the people of the Zhao family, it seems that the ingredients are mixed, and you must find out how this wheat flour is made......
In a small township of 100 households, even if all the harvested wheat is made into flour, there are only 10,000 stones, in exchange for hundreds of thousands of stones of grain.
But if you wait until all the Zhao clan's territories start to make this kind of goods for sale, and the other five Qings still don't know how to get it, then the problem will be serious.
While most of the doctors only focus on how the chefs can make delicious dishes out of wheat flour, Fan Jia sees through the food behind this strange thing.
If Liuqing starts a war, he will inevitably need to gallop hundreds of cars, leather cars, and tens of thousands of armor. The battlefield is from Hexi to Chaoge, from Jinyang to Luhun, feeding grain for thousands of miles.
When the time comes, the expenses inside and outside the army in the front and rear, the rewards for retainers and strategists, the cost of materials such as glue paint for weapon maintenance, and the expenses for maintaining chariots and armor, etc., will be consumed every day, and the daily cost will be 100 gold!
The ancient art of war clouds, eat one stone of the enemy, and be my twenty stones! What Zhao Wuxian is doing now is exactly that, he exchanged a small amount of wheat flour for a large amount of corn, cattle and horses from the Jin Guoshi doctor. When he accumulates a lot, Su Zhi can be used for ten years, and the horse can be equipped with a thousand chariots, it will be extremely difficult for the Fan clan to quickly defeat the Zhao clan!
So Fan Jia ordered again: "In addition, send some more people to wait near the left side of the palace, every time on the day of the Yi city, there will be people from the countryside who come out, and it is good to buy them with money, if not, tie one back!" Fan and Zhao have been hostile for a long time, and Yu Ke can't let Zhao Wuxian sit on the ground and make money! ”
……
In the early morning of the next day, on the way back to Chengxiang, it was still Wang Sunqi who stood on the railing for the royal Rong and Zhao Wuxian.
Since his sister Wei Xianjian revealed his identity, Xiao Tong Ao has been treated like a soldier, he was allowed to pedal a car, and Wang Sun Qi taught him how to drive. But his eyes have been restless, from time to time he looked at the well where An Bu was walking on the side of the car, and then turned his head to look at Zhao Wuxian, and stopped talking......
"The car has two wheels, a single wheel, the car stands on the people, the front of the four horses, the horse that drives the wheel is called the service horse, and the two sides are called the horse. Yu Rong should control the horse with eight bridles in his hands, just as the poem says, the reins are like a group, and the two horses are like a dance; The two suits are together, and the two horses are like hands. ”
Although he had been taught by Wang Sunqi once, Zhao Wuxian still listened carefully.
The chariots of the Spring and Autumn Period in China were chest drives, which were much more advanced than the neck drives of Egypt and Greece in the same period. This is probably because the pre-Qin chariots were mostly heavy and could even be used to charge into battle, rather than light vehicles like Egypt and the Hittites, which could only be used as archery platforms.
But maybe it's really a specialization in the art industry, Zhao Wuxian is good at archery, and his swordsmanship is rough, and he can't do well in the art of control, no matter how he learns it.
There are also several chariot and wheel people in Chengxiang, and after Zhao Wuxian popularized junior high school mechanics to Ji Qiao, he made a certain transformation of a newly made chariot. For example, there is an extra reinforcing rod on the wheel, which reinforces the axle and makes the long hub that is easy to be caught by obstacles shorter.
Subsequently, he used this new form of carriage to compete with Wang Sunqi, but he changed horses three times, and was thrown far away all three times.
Zhao Wuxian thought it was strange at the time, in terms of performance and speed, it should be that the newly made car was better, why did he lose?
He asked: "Wang Sun taught Yu to control, but his skills were not fully awarded to me?" ”
Wang Sunqi replied: "The mastery of the subordinates has been taught to the gentleman, but once the gentleman controls himself, he is often useless in the right place. As a royal person, the most important thing should be that the body of the horse is unified with the car, and the heart of the person is coordinated with the temperament of the horse, so that the man and the horse and the carriage can be integrated and run fast and far. ”
"Now the gentleman, once he is left behind by his subordinates, desperately wants to catch up with me, and if he is in front of me, he is afraid that he will be overtaken by me. When you're ahead or behind, all you think of is me, so how can you coordinate with the horses? The reason why this gentleman is also after. ”
Zhao Wuxian suddenly realized, indeed, he paid too much attention to winning and losing, and if he couldn't concentrate on anything, it would only backfire. But he is also helpless, his mentality of urgency and suffering from gains and losses is probably because he knows the direction of history.
The six Qings are fighting, just like the six horses are fighting, the Zhao family is now in a backward state, and the result of failure in this competition is likely to be the loss of all the territories, the loss of the powerful position, and the loss of his sister Ji Huan......
Therefore, Zhao Wuxian desperately tried to find a way to increase the strength of the Zhao family, and these farming methods and industries he arranged in Chengxiang would inevitably be dedicated to Zhao Yang after the winter solstice and fully promoted in the Zhao family's territory. He also entered the Qiqi Palace by currying favor with Marquis Wu of Jin, trying to increase the influence of the Zhao family in the palace.
But now it seems that it is important to concentrate on the first piece of land at hand.
Zhao Wuxian is not a full-time emperor, so he can drive an emergency without spending too much time inside. On the contrary, it was the little boy Ao, who seemed to be quite talented in this, so Zhao Wuxian asked Wang Sunqi to shift his attention to Ao, and strive to cultivate a good royal Rong.
Jing is silent and has nothing to say all the way, which is a common thing. But Zhao Wuxian found that in the past, Xiao Tong Ao, who had a detached personality and kept talking, was also a little silent, and only replied with only when Wang Sunqi was teaching, which was a strange thing.
"Isn't it true that the two of you got along for a day and were brought into a stuffy gourd by the well?"
While resting in the house, Zhao Wuxian pointed at the little boy Ao and Jing and made fun of him.
Jing thought all the way that the messenger of the gentleman Shuqi would come to Chengxiang tomorrow night, and threaten him with his sister's life, so he has always been a little distracted. Especially in front of Zhao Wuxian, he was so ashamed that he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
So he confessed and left, saying that he was going to the back to stop the procession, and beckoned the soldiers to sit down and drink water and rest.
Zhao Wuxian didn't care, what he was most satisfied with was this, he was diligent, low-key, and loved the soldiers like a son, and the two were in order, and his Xu was like a forest. If he wants to promote another pawn commander one day, Jing should be the best candidate, but unfortunately, his background is a bit low.
From yesterday to today, because Jing has always been by his side, he didn't find a chance to talk to Zhao Wuxian alone, and he always wanted to talk and stopped along the way, so anxious.
At this time, when he saw the well leaving, he found an opportunity to come over, saying that he had something important to report.
