Chapter 114 Where the Yellow Crane Breaks the Smoke
When Qin Lei went back and told Guan Tao about this, Guan Tao smiled and said: "The prince has understood how to make the best use of people, but don't forget the other one, he has ill intentions and knows the sky more than he knows the sky." ”
Qin Lei nodded and smiled: "I also want Mr. to mention his face." As he spoke, he came to the kang and sat down cross-legged. Pick up a map on the small table and look at it. This is exactly the one that the pavilion Tao showed to Shi Meng yesterday.
Qin Lei compared on the map while looking at it, and after a while, he muttered: "The Chu State should also be added, there are more opportunities in the south than in the north." ”
Guan Tao said with a sad face: "Having said that, we don't have any money." One million is a huge amount of money, but it is extremely difficult to open so many stores at the same time. If you want to expand to the Chu State, just to open up the joints and make good places, the cost is indispensable, and it is really stretched. ”
Qin Lei tapped his finger on the map and said resolutely: "I can find a way to solve the problem of money, but the sooner the network is laid, the sooner it will be effective." If we start later than others, we can't follow the steps like others, otherwise we will never get ahead. ”
Guan Tao smiled helplessly: "As long as the prince can borrow another 500,000 taels, his subordinates will vomit blood and handle the affairs of Nanchu for you." ”
Qin Lei looked at the obviously haggard Pavilion Tao, and couldn't bear to say: "Things can't be done, Mr. should pay attention to rest." ”
Guan Tao rolled his eyelids and said, "Before His Highness finds a helper for his subordinates, I'm afraid his subordinates will be even busier." ”
Qin Lei sat on the futon and said depressedly: "Talents are rare, and loyalty is even more rare!" ”
Guan Tao thought of someone and smiled at Qin Lei: "Can the prince get Qin Qi's idea back." ”
Qin Lei clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful, anyway, the training over there is almost over, so let them come back together." I'll tell my father about it in a hurry. Then he asked earnestly: "Sir, how do you say Lone should recruit talents?" Next time, I can't find anyone. ”
Guan Tao pondered for a moment and pondered: "Your Highness is bold and generous, and it is easy to win the hearts of martial artists. ”
Qin Lei squinted his eyes and smiled: "You are a museum pottery, scolding me for not having a few drops of ink, so that the literati can't look down on it, isn't it?" ”
Guan Tao sat up straight and said solemnly: "Martial arts can make His Highness strong, but only Wen can make you stable." If this problem is not solved, the prince will inevitably be prosperous and declining in the future. However, now, several His Royal Highnesses, as well as the Prime Minister's Mansion, have opened their doors to accept guests, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Corporal Lixian is not an exaggeration, and it is difficult for a great talent to take the initiative to vote for us. ”
Qin Lei also got up seriously and said respectfully: "Please teach me, sir." ”
Guan Tao said: "There are three ways to choose, one is to learn from the Li family, abolish literature and martial arts, and support the army for self-respect, so that you can develop your strengths and avoid weaknesses, accumulate strength in a few years, and protect yourself." ”
Qin Lei shook his head and said: "There is more than enough self-preservation, in other words, it is not enterprising enough." And I have a different identity from the Li family. The future emperor can tolerate the behemoth Li family, but it is impossible to accommodate the brothers who are too big to lose. ”
Pavilion Tao twisted and said: "The second one, it's very simple, Your Highness has heard the story of Lu Meng's 'Shibei Three Days'." Your Highness only needs to study hard from now on, and with your talents, I believe that in five years at most, you will be able to impress the scholars. ”
Qin Lei lost his energy all of a sudden, and he didn't want to think: "I have a headache when I read a book, if I insist on reading hard, I will definitely fall asleep in less than a quarter of an hour." This trick doesn't work, let's talk about the third one. ”
Guan Tao knew that Qin Lei was so lazy that he came up, and it was useless to say anything, so he held back the persuasions such as 'there is nothing difficult in the world, and the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle', and said again: "The third one requires great financial resources, great courage, and great perseverance, all of which are indispensable. But as long as he can persevere, after twenty years, His Royal Highness can replace Prime Minister Wen. ”
Qin Lei suddenly came to his senses and said happily: "I have all these conditions, let's talk about it quickly." ”
Guan Tao almost pulled off his beard, and he bared his teeth in pain and said: "Your Highness's skills are getting deeper and deeper, but you still have to pay attention to sending and receiving freely, so as not to be injured by mistake." ”
The two laughed together, and Tao Cai said solemnly after passing through the hall: "The third rule is to cultivate the school and invite Mr., so that some intelligent children who can't afford to read have the opportunity to learn the Four Books and the Five Classics." Twenty years later, the natural fragrance of peach and plum, these people have received the great favor of His Highness, and they will inevitably be your supporters. If he really has the ability to implement this policy for ten years, the rule of the Great Qin officials can be cleared, and Prime Minister Wen's network can be self-defeating. If you persist for another ten years, the national strength of Great Qin will definitely be unparalleled in the world, and great things can be accomplished, and the world can be determined! ”
Qin Lei arched his hand and sighed: "This is the old man's strategy to seek the country. Mr. Zhenguoshi also. Suddenly remembering something, he asked: "Is this also mentioned in Mr.'s "Zou Discussion on the Reform of the Qi State"?" ”
Guan Tao knew Qin Lei's worries, and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Shangguan is good at calculation, but his vision is slightly inferior, and he is a little anxious for quick success. Besides, the subordinates who were waiting to be officials lined up. He wouldn't use this thankless method. ”
Qin Lei pondered: "This matter is a hundred-year plan, it needs to be considered in the long run, and running a school is a pure money-burning business, if you don't calculate it well, how much money is not enough to fill this black hole." In this way, you write a note and present it, and let's discuss it. After thinking about it, he added: "It must match our development plan, and don't be rash." ”
Guan Tao nodded and took orders, and the two of them carefully took stock of the first batch of stores to be opened from scale to budget. This kind of thing seems simple, but every link needs to be carefully scrutinized, and it often leads to many new questions. Time passed like a stream, and even dinner was sent in by Qin Surabaya.
This time the rooster crowed three times, and the sky turned white. Qin Lei rubbed his astringent eyes, stretched his waist, and said to Guan Tao, who had a tired face and eyes full of: "I have to go back to sleep, you can sleep too." I really have to invite a few think tanks, and I will lose my life if I bow down in person. ”
Guan Tao nodded, forced to tidy up the scattered papers on the table, and lay down straight and fell asleep. He is no better than Qin Lei, he neglects to exercise all day long, and he is greedy for cups, and his body and bones can't stand staying up late.
Qin Lei pulled the quilt and covered him indiscriminately. He put on his shoes and went to the ground, and went out of the residence of the pavilion pottery. Qin Surabaya, who also hadn't slept all night outside, hurriedly caught up. Qin Lei saw that he was also overwhelmed, so he said kindly: "Let you take a day off and go back to sleep." ”
Qin Surabaya smiled bitterly: "This is the Shangyuan Festival, and it is a public holiday. ”
Qin Lei said 'um', and then suddenly said: "This year is over." ”
Qin Sishui took out a gold-painted red invitation card from his arms, handed it to Qin Lei and said, "Lord Wang, this is sent by the fourth young master of the Li family." ”
Qin Lei took it and opened it to see that it was an organization called Huimo Grass House, which was going to hold a lantern festival with the name of raising funds on the night of Shangyuan. Invite His Royal Highness the King of Thalong to come.
The fire on the eighth day of the new year made the carnival of the Shangyuan Festival a little out of place, so Kyoto Prefecture did not organize a lantern festival this year. Qin Lei guessed that this was probably because the young masters and ladies were unwilling to be bored to spend the Shangyuan Festival, tearing a fig leaf for disaster relief, and having fun with good intentions. He threw the invitation back into Surabaya's arms, shook his head and said, "No." ”
Qin Sishui knew that his prince was a master who said everything, and he didn't say much, so he took the invitation card in his hand and followed Qin Lei to the front hall. As he walked, Qin Lei suddenly asked, "Who did you just say sent it?" ”
Qin Sishui repeated: "Fourth Young Master of the Li family, Li Sihai." ”
Qin Lei said strangely: "Why did this little fat man find the door?" It seems that we don't have a good relationship with his family. ”
Qin Sishui nodded and said, "It's very thick." ”
Qin Lei snatched the invitation card with his hand, looked at it again, didn't see any fame, and threw it back to Qin Surabaya: "When did the little fat man come?" Why don't you know me? ”
Qin Sishui hurriedly explained: "Fourth Prince Li came here for dinner, didn't the prince order that no one should disturb your discussion with Mr. Guantao?" The little one had the audacity to stop him. ”
Qin Lei thought about it, there was such a thing, so he no longer pursued the matter. He instructed Qin Surabaya: "You go and send a letter back to Li Sihai, and say that this king will attend on time." ”
Qin Surabaya didn't mention the holiday, so he hurriedly responded and went out on an errand.
Qin Lei looked at his back and nodded with satisfaction, Qin Surabaya's broken gong is to be beaten and beaten from time to time.
He turned back to his bedroom and saw Ruolan leaning against the edge of the bed, leaning on her stomach and sleeping in her clothes. The two red candles on the table had long since burned out. It seems that she has been waiting all night.
Maybe it was too easy to get, Qin Lei always inadvertently ignored her existence. But in any case, this is always the first woman in Qin Lei's life, looking at the quiet pretty face of Ruolan who is sleeping, this girl always pays silently and bears silently, even when the two of them mix oil in honey, they never ask for anything.
Qin Lei couldn't help but feel sorry, and bent down to kiss her lightly on her smooth forehead. The girl opened her eyes and said softly, "Master, you're back." Then he arose and served. Qin Lei stretched out his arms to hug her, brought her back on the bed, and said softly: "Don't move, sleep with me." ”
Ruolan lay quietly in Qin Lei's arms, feeling his warm chest and strong heartbeat. After a while, Qin Lei let out a slight snoring sound. Ruolan dared to look up secretly.
looked at Qin Lei's well-defined face, the bridge of his nose, and the corners of his mouth tightly pursed in his sleep. Ruolan was stupid, and two lines of tears involuntarily left down her cheeks, and the girl hurriedly caught them, for fear that she would wet His Highness's clothes and disturb his good dreams.
