(ps: I don't ask for a monthly pass for a day, and I have been blown up on the monthly pass list one after another, so I am verbose, ask for a monthly pass!) ）

The warm and pleasant spring has rolled over unconsciously, the hot and hot summer thief head crawled over, after a few thunderstorms, the red flowers like flames bloomed in the fields of Qujing, graceful and colorful fluttering in the wind, exuding a mysterious intoxicating fragrance, more than two hundred years in advance of the Qujing land decorated with purple and red. After a few days, the bright red flowers gradually climbed all over the mountains, forming a sea of flowers, which became more and more brilliant and magnificent.

It is not only this evil flower that appeared in the land of Qujing in advance, but also corn, peppers, pumpkins, potatoes and sweet potatoes and so on that have recently been introduced to the Central Plains. They have all tried to plant some of them more or less, and the resistance and doubts are far less than the evil flowers.

In this way, the prosperous era of sweet potatoes or the prosperous era of Kangqian, which was advocated by later generations, also appeared in the land of Yunnan in advance under the instigation of the wings of the demon moth of Lu Fatzi.

Of course, Rome can not be built in a day, and seeds can not take root and sprout, blossom and bear fruit in a day. It is precisely because of this that Li Shuzu, who is hated by the poor people, has a little time and opportunity to die and struggle.

In early April of the seventh year of Kang Mazi, Lu Fatzi, who had just returned to Qujing after his marriage in Kunming, encountered a major test, and An Shiji, the eldest son of Anmin, who was in Tuzhizhou and Da Tusi, was instigated and bribed by Li Shuzu, and deliberately instigated the Yi people to forcibly occupy the land of the Han people in Qujing, and there was a dispute and brawl between the two sides, and a baby (slave) of An Min Tusi died mysteriously in the brawl, which led An Shiji to lead the campfire (a semi-militarized Yi armed organization under the tusi control) soldiers to Qujing City, demanding that Lu Fatzi hand over the murderer, Otherwise, you will have to go into Qujing City to find the murderer yourself.

If you want to change to another county order, you will already be paralyzed by fright when you encounter such a scene, and the six gods have no owner, and let Li Shuzu, the boss, seize the handle and take it away. But what Li Shuzu and An Shiji never dreamed of was that less than half an hour after An Shiji's people rushed to Qujing City, the army of Wu Sangui's right town arrived at the scene under the leadership of Wang Jing, the deputy general of Yunnan, and quickly maintained the order, and at the same time, Lu Fatzi also sent Li Tianzhi and Fang Shiyu to arrest two subordinates from Li Shuzu's mansion and escort them out of the city to An Shiji.

Of course An Shiji didn't do it, and he refused to admit that these two Li Shuzu's subordinates were murderers, but at this time, An Shiji's half-brother An Shixian stood up and took a group of children to testify, insisting that these two subordinates were the real murderers, and also pulled out the beneficial Yi people to testify that these two subordinates were present at the time and were suspected of committing the crime - by the way, An Shiji's younger brother An Shixian and Geng Juzhong both had a common hobby, That is, he likes to work against his brother, and he dreams of bringing down his brother and replacing him.

And in history, because of this bad temper, An Shixian was also sentenced to a bloody prison (bloody lockdown) by An Shiji after inheriting the position of Tusi!

Of course, history is history, under the influence of the wings of the demon moth of Lu Fatzi, An Shiji was really caught off guard by his younger brother this time, and in a fit of rage, An Shiji almost wanted to tear An Shixian's heart apart, but what caught An Shiji off guard was still behind, in the chaos, An Shiji suddenly discovered that the real murderer who killed the baby - who is also An Shiji's confidant - actually disappeared mysteriously! At the same time, Wang Jing also came forward to say hello, and asked An Shiji with a smile if he wanted to continue to make a big fuss, whether he wanted to invite Pingxi Wangfu to investigate, and whether he wanted to invite An Shiji's father, the current Tusi Anmin, to assist in the investigation?

Asked with a smile, Wang Jing also quietly showed An Shiji a waist card - An Shiji's waist card of a henchman who was ordered to kill people, and the sweat on An Shiji's forehead also flowed down at once - Wu Sangui is different from Shang Kexi, Geng Jimao, and Kong Youde, who do not massacre the Han people, but they have always been killed in dealing with Tusi, four years ago, Wang Yaozu, the Tusi of Eastern Yunnan, took advantage of Wu Sangui's conquest of Shuixi to raise an army and rebel, and once threatened Kunming City, as a result, Wu Sangui quickly returned to the division, but Wang Yaozu's whole clan was killed! None of the big and small toasts who followed Wang Yaozu were spared, and all the families were killed by Wu Sangui to the point of blood, including the babies in swaddling clothes.

That year, An Shiji's father An Min and his mother Lu family Tusi were also lucky, afraid that Wu Sangui's military might did not dare to follow Wang Yaozu to make trouble, so they escaped the disaster of annihilation, otherwise, on the way back to Yunnan from Guizhou, Wu Sangui's Yi'an family and Yilianglu's family were the first two targets! It is precisely because of this that the An family and the Lu family did not dare to provoke Wu Sangui, the killing god, and trembled under Wu Sangui's silver power, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air.

However, compared with the Guizhou Shuixi toasts, the toasts in Yunnan are really much luckier, under the butcher's knife of Wu Sangui, the Shuixi toasts who dominated the southwest for hundreds of years in the Ming Dynasty and once besieged Guiyang to the point that there were only more than 200 people left in the city, but they were killed by Wu Sangui for hundreds of years and did not ease their breath.

Gossip is far away, to get back to business, An Shiji is not a stupid person, after seeing the waist card shown by Wang Jing, An Shiji immediately understood that if the matter continued to make trouble, not only would he not be able to reap any benefits, but he would get caught up in the fire and trap himself. At that moment, An Shiji immediately made a decision and accepted the conditions offered by Lu Fatzi with a smile on his face, that is, he determined that the two subordinates in Li Shuzu's mansion were murderers, and asked Lu Fatzi to severely punish him according to law, and at the same time paid out of his own pocket to give the baby's family a little bereavement, and left Qujing City with the team, leaving his younger brother An Shixian and Lu Fatzi to burn yellow paper in Qujing to worship their brothers, and the Han-Yi dispute that Li Shuzu had finally provoked also subsided.

Wang Jing and An Shixian of course did not help Lu Fatzi in vain, when Li Shuzu was still puzzled and couldn't understand why Lu Fatzi could predict the prophet, Lu Fatzi contributed money and technology, and Wang Jing went out to work together to build a glass workshop, and finally produced the first batch of finished products - 25 glass mirrors the size of a basin, and more than 60 pieces of glassware.

On the day of the output of the finished product, Lu Fatzi deliberately took the product to the most famous small monument in Qujing City to be exhibited, and the whole city of Qujing was a sensation, and the whole government of Qujing Mansion was a sensation, and countless soldiers and civilians rushed to visit the small monument. And when they saw the clear image reflected in the glass mirror made of amalgam, no one was dumbfounded, no one was full of praise, and they all said that this is a priceless treasure of great value. It was also a coincidence that a few merchants under the command of the Harmony Horn in Tibetan Province happened to pass by Qujing, and when they saw such a strange treasure, they scraped together six thousand taels of silver on the spot, bought a glass mirror and four glasses, and prepared to take them to Tibet Province to present to the Harmony Horn. And the surrounding Lu family toast, Anjia toast and Longjia toast also spent a high price, buying three glass mirrors and more than a dozen glasses and bottles from Lu Fatzi, so that Lu Fatzi and Wang Jing made a lot of money and made a fortune.

The big bosses carefully held the glass mirror and the glass and left happily, Lu Fatzi and Wang Jingye, the two big bosses, smiled crookedly, among the two main raw materials for making glass, quartz sand Qujing has, how much to want, the cost is almost zero, high-purity soda to dry the seaweed and burn it, at the same time, the market can also buy caustic soda for steamed bread, it is really not good It can also be extracted from the ashes of plants and trees, and the cost is pitifully low, and then remove the labor cost and fuel cost, Lu Fatzi and Wang Jing's profits are huge, It's enough to make the whole world red-eyed and crazy.

After three days of exhibition, he sold two glass mirrors and seven or eight glasses and glass bottles at sky-high prices to the toast bosses, and Lu Fatzi left five glass mirrors and five glass products, and the remaining fourteen glass mirrors and other glass products were all handed over to Lu Fatzi's uncle Qin Chuanwu, so that the Daheng firm founded by Qin Chuanwu could be transported to other places for sale. Among the remaining things, four glasses and one glass bottle were all given to An Shixian by Lu Fatzi to repay his kindness as a traitor, and An Shixian, who was about to stretch out his claws in his throat and eyes, thanked him for his kindness and left happily, which also laid the foundation of the decades-long alliance between Lu Fatzi and An Shixian.

After sending away An Shixian, Lu Fatzi began to distribute the remaining five glass mirrors, among which the dragon-shaped mirror was specially ordered - by heat cutting processing, of course, it had to be sent to Yanjing to send Xiao Mazi, and the two tiger-shaped mirrors were given to Wu Sangui on the one hand, and Liu Xu was sent to send the old man Shang Kexi, so as to ease the relationship between Weng and his son-in-law. And the last two round glass mirrors, one side was given to Wang Fuchen by Lu Fatzi and Wang Jing to appease the hungry wolf who was shooting green light in his eyes, Wang Fuchen accepted it unceremoniously, and took the opportunity to ask for shares, fortunately, Lu Fatzi and Wang Jing also had this psychological preparation, and promised to give Wang Fuchen a dry share on the spot, and tied Wang Fuchen to his own interests chariot, poor Li Shuzu Li Zhifu also became more and more isolated and helpless in Qujing.

The five gift glass mirrors have only the last one left, and the big and small wolves in the Pingxi palace are all staring at this last glass mirror, Wu Yingqi sent a letter to ask if Lu Fatzi's glass workshop wants to help, saying that no matter the manpower, territory and raw materials, as long as Lu Fatzi speaks, Wu Yingqi can try his best to help! Ma Bao, who was stationed in Chuxiong, sent his brother Ma Jun to greet him, and asked if Lu Fatzi had been bullied in Qujing, and if so, General Ma would immediately bring his brothers over to cut people! Hu Guozhu and Xia Guoxiang's aunt and brother were even more desperate, so they simply found an excuse and went directly to Qujing City to invite Lu Fatzi to dinner. There are also two general soldiers in Qujing Mansion, Liu Wenjin and Di Sanpin, and a garrison Xie Chun also came to ask for warmth and make friends with Lu Fatzi -- fortunately, Lu Fatzi turned his face with Li Shuzu as soon as he took office, otherwise there would definitely be one more extortionist.

In fact, the idea of playing this last glass mirror also includes Lin Tianqing, the governor of Yunnan, and Bian Sanyuan, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, as well as Cui Zhiying, the political envoy of Yunnan, and Li Yingyuan, the envoy of the inspection department, who are also itching, but Lu Fatzi is fighting with Li Shuzu Luo Circle, even if Lu Fatzi sends them, they don't dare to ask for it, so they can only honestly suppress the itching in their hearts, and just wait for the limelight to pass and then discuss with Lu Fatzi slowly. But Rao is like this, so many hungry wolves are staring at the only glass mirror, Lu Fatzi is still overwhelmed, anxious and crying and laughing, Wang Jing is also very difficult, I don't know who to please and who to offend.

In desperation, Lu Fatzi and Wang Jing had to spend a lot of money, let the craftsmen work all night, and produced a batch of glassware with relatively simple craftsmanship, which was used to send these hungry wolves away, temporarily appease them, and at the same time ensure that after the next batch of glass mirrors are produced, they will definitely be indispensable, and these hungry wolves will leave satisfied. And the last glass mirror was also given to Wu Sangui's godson Wu Guogui by Lu Fatzi to repay him for his protection and favor some time ago - of course, Lu Fatzi's move has absolutely nothing to do with Wu Guogui's beautiful daughter Wu Xiaosu, whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway.

The production of glass mirrors is so profitable, and the deputy general Wang Jingwang, who made a lot of money and couldn't even smile from his mouth, was ecstatic, in addition to pulling Lu Fatzi to burn yellow paper to worship his brothers, he also talked to Lu Fatzi about how to expand the scale of production and increase production capacity. Originally, Wang Jing's meaning was that he should take advantage of the high price that can be sold now, hurry up and make more money to sell, how much money he makes, and when he earns a lifetime of silver that he can't eat and use, he can stop and enjoy the blessings.

Regarding Wang Jing's rat eyes, the ambitious Fat Lu of course scoffed at it, and said: "Second Brother Wang, have you ever heard of the principle that scarcity is precious? You should always know what the price of food is in a famine year and what is the price of food in a good year, right? It is easy for us to make more prolific glass mirrors, but the price of glass mirrors has come down, what do we eat? The glass mirror was originally sold for the rich, and they bought it to show off, you made a lot of it, every household has it, and they also bought dry balls at a high price? ”

Wang Jing is quite reliable in fighting, and he is still righteous to his friends, but he is really too poor in terms of economy, so after pondering for half a pillar of incense, Wang Jing finally understood the meaning of Lu Fatzi's words, nodded first, and said: "Brother Lu is reasonable, this thing can't be made too much, so what do you say we should do?" ”

"There are two steps, the first step is to strictly limit the production of glass mirrors." Fat Lu raised two fingers and said: "We must not make more glass mirrors, we only make twenty sides every two months, even if we only buy three thousand taels on one side, we can earn 60,000 taels every two months, and it will be 360,000 taels in a year." But we can let go of the ordinary glass cups and glass bottles, and we can also teach the technology to the local people in Qujing, so that they can also make it, one is to earn more silver, and the other is to let the people and craftsmen of Qujing also follow the light, so that they can also make a little fortune, and think of our good, so as not to let them outflow the technology and cut off our financial route. ”

"Brother Lu is worthy of being a scholar, it makes sense and makes sense, so let's do it." Wang Jing nodded again and again, and then asked, "What about the second step?" ”

"The second step, of course, is to improve the technology." Lu Fatzi took out a piece of scrap from the corner of the tin-mercury glass mirror, and said with a heartbeat: "Second Brother Wang, please see, in fact, our first batch of glass mirrors is just rare, the quality is not particularly good, the glass is not transparent enough, the portrait in the mirror is not clear enough, the mercury and tin behind it are not strong enough, it will fall off after a few years, and it is not much different from the imported from the Western foreign domain, it can only be sold in the Qing Dynasty, and it cannot be sold in the West, of course, it will not earn the silver of those rich people in the West." ”

"What then?" Wang Jing asked nervously.

"Brother, I studied Western knowledge and found a better way to make glass mirrors, but I need time to experiment slowly." Lu Fatzi said solemnly: "The mirror made by this method is not only of better quality, but also has a lower cost and a more broken construction period, if we can successfully test this method, then the new glass mirror made will not only be absolutely impossible for others to learn, and it will be sold at a higher price in the Qing Dynasty, but it can also be sold to the Western foreign domain, and earn the silver of the Western soil buns, the silver of the Fusang soil buns and the silver of the Goryeo soil buns, and the silver of the whole world!" At that time, Second Brother Wang, do you say that our brothers and our children and grandchildren can still spend this money? ”

"That's right, that's it!" Wang Jing was very excited, and pressed the shoulder of the fat man Lu, "Good brother, when the second brother listens to you, you can do what you say, what else do you need to build a new glass mirror?" Even if you open your mouth, even if it is the foot washing water used by the queen mother, the second brother, I will find out if I drill a hole in the mountain! ”

"Don't worry, this thing can't be rushed, you have to test it slowly, wait slowly." Lu Fatzi smiled bitterly and said: "That's it, Second Brother Wang, I know that there is an ownerless barren mountain in the southwest of Sanchakou Fort, the mountain is full of quartz stones that can't be planted, there is a water source near the coal mine, it is a good place to engage in a glaze workshop, you go and bring some people to make a camp there, the furnace tools and everything are moved over, the raw materials are well prepared, let the craftsmen who are engaged in glaze also live there, you can let them drag their families with them, but they are not allowed to leave casually, wait for me to recruit some apprentices in Qujing, and then we will start to do it." ”

"Cheng, within three days, I'll get it all for you!" Wang Jing agreed.

"There's no need to rush it." Fat Lu shook his head and said, "Take your time, brother, I have to concentrate on preparing to deal with the imperial court in the past few days, and clean up the old thing of Li Shuzu first, otherwise I won't be able to spare time to go over to make a new glass mirror." ”

"Damn, Li Shuzu's old thing, why hasn't he died yet?" Wang Jing scolded and said: "Brother Lu, just do this, brother, I will arrange some people to dress up as Miao Zi or Yi Zi, and when Li leads the old thing out of the city, I will cut him down with a knife, so that he will always cause trouble for you." ”

"Don't, the background and backing of Li Shuzu's old things are not simple, and they can't be hard." Fat Lu shook his head and said, "If this method worked, the prince would have used it a long time ago." To deal with a leprosy old dog like Li Shuzu, he can only follow the rules of the court and use the methods of the court to fight him down, so that he will die without a place to be buried. Otherwise, you will only get into trouble and bring disaster to yourself. ”

"Fuck, old thing, sooner or later I'll kill your whole family!" Wang Jing scolded vulgarly again, but he didn't dare to mess around with Li Shuzu, so he had to say: "Okay, listen to Brother Lu's arrangement, don't be him." Brother Lu, do you need help dealing with him, just ask, brother, I will do my best to help. ”

Of course Lu Fatzi believed what Wang Jing said - now that Lu Fatzi's interests have been completely tied to Wang Jing, Wang Jing will certainly not watch Lu Fatzi be brought down by Li Shuzu. But asking a vulgar martial artist like Wang Jing to help in the officialdom battle really made it a little more difficult for him, so Lu Fatzi thought about it, and then said: "Then let's do it, Second Brother Wang, you let the army keep an eye on the big and small passes during this time, and see if there are any unusual characters coming in and out, especially the kind of foreigner who speaks with a Beijing accent, as soon as he finds out, he will keep an eye on me, investigate his every move, and notify me if there is anything abnormal." ”

"Cheng, brother, I have been stationed in Qujing for so many years, and I am half a snake, this matter must be done beautifully for you." Wang Jing agreed, and asked curiously: "But, Brother Lu, what are you doing to check this?" ”

"Just today, the prince of Pingxi sent me a letter in an urgent manner of six hundred miles." Lu Fatzi said with a gloomy face: "After Li Shuzu's bitch wife entered Beijing, he successfully persuaded Prince Kang to come forward and sue me in front of the emperor. ”

"Who's the Chincha?" Wang Jing was a little nervous, and said: "If you don't let the glass workshop hurry up and make a glass mirror and use it to send him away, as long as he is willing to accept it, Brother Lu, you can easily order it." ”

"I don't know what the hell this Qin Cha is doing, he actually asked the emperor not to publish his name and official position in the court newspaper and the archives of the Ministry of Rites." Lu Fatzi said distressedly: "In this way, brother, I will be much more passive, in case this Qincha is on Li Shuzu's side, or is originally a person with a white flag, then brother I will be completely passive." So I can't help it, I can only ask you for help me find this messenger as soon as possible. ”

"Oh, I see." Wang Jing suddenly realized, slapped his forehead again and said: "Wait, no wonder Wang Jizhen, the son of Boss Wang, took the initiative to ask Ling to go to Shengjing Pass today, but he was already fed with silver and women by Li Shuzu's old thing, could it be that he also helped Li Shuzu find this Qincha?" ”

"Is there such a thing?" Lu Fatzi was stunned and said in surprise: "Could it be that Li Shuzu doesn't know who this Qincha is?" What is this minister going to do? Why do you hide your identities from me and the backers behind Li Shuzu? ”

………………

When Lu Fatzi and Li Shuzu were both shocked and puzzled by the identity of this mysterious Qincha, at the same time, at the same time, under the Yuping Pass, the only way for Hunan to enter Guizhou, suddenly a team composed of more than ten people, the first one was in his thirties, with an ordinary appearance and a kind attitude, and he personally showed the customs clearance documents to the customs guards. But it is very unfortunate that today's Yuping Pass guard guard does not know a single big character, but he sees that the seal on the customs clearance document is very large, or a very noble cinnabar seal, obviously not like the customs clearance road issued by the local government, it seems to have an extraordinary origin, the sentry officer quickly saluted, respectfully asked: "This lord, don't blame, the little one is illiterate, may I ask who is your surname, where do you come from?" Where to go? ”

"My name is Yu Jackie Chan, a man with a yellow flag in the Han army." The middle-aged man replied with a smile: "I came from the capital and went to Yunnan to do some official business." ”

"Yu Jackie Chan? Where do you think you've heard the name? The sentinel scratched his head and suddenly exclaimed, "Yu Jackie Chan? My lord, could it be that you are the famous Qing official Yu Jackie Chan Yu Qingtian? ”

"The military master misunderstood." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "That is located in Jackie Chan Yu, it is my brother of the same clan, he is now the governor of Hezhou, Sichuan, and I am just an ordinary imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Because I am of the same clan as him, and I coincidentally chose the same name, many people call me less than Jackie Chan. ”
