"If my uncle wants to be rich, the best way is to go into business. You set up a caravan, and with my care, you don't have to worry about making a fortune. ”

"Your Majesty, isn't it a bit unpleasant to say that the dignified uncle went to do business?"

can understand the Queen Mother's question, Liu Hong knows that what she cares about is not that business is not good. It's Dong Pet who went into business, how to arrange his identity. After all, the dignified uncle of the country can't be a flat-headed person with a white body.

"Queen Mother, now it's not the same as before, and it's not a shame to do business. I also have a lot of caravans, and I haven't heard anyone say anything bad about this. If the queen mother thinks that my uncle has no identity, I can give my uncle a marquis, so that he will be worthy of the identity of the uncle of the country. ”

As soon as she heard that Liu Hong was going to give Dong Chong a marquis, the Empress Dowager Dong was satisfied. For the implementation of the new title, the Empress Dowager Dong also knew that the marquis was already a very high title, although there was a duke on it, but that thing was just an ornament, prepared for people who had made peerless achievements. The current dukes are all those who were renamed by the previous princes, and the others, even the current prime minister Liu Qi, are only named marquises. Therefore, Dong Pet can get a marquis, she really can't say anything.

Dong Pet saw that his official position was completely hopeless, so he pondered about getting something affordable. It's also a good thing to earn more money and enjoy life well.

"Your Majesty, do you think what kind of business my uncle wants to do, after all, I don't have much research in this area."

Dong Pet went to business with interest and avoided a lot of trouble for Liu Hong, so Liu Hong patiently explained to him, "Uncle, there are too many profitable transactions now. If you have a lot of money, you can invest in heavy industries such as steel mills and smelters. This thing, but it's faster than grabbing money. ”

"Your Majesty, it's not that you don't know the situation of your uncle's family, where can you get a lot of money. No matter how good this kind of business is, I can only watch. ”

"It doesn't matter if you don't have a lot of money to invest, we can do something with little investment and quick results."

"What is the little investment that pays off quickly?"

"There's a lot of that stuff." Liu Hong gave an example for Dong Chong, "Like a garment factory, a quilt factory, a canning factory, or something, as long as the quality of these things can be guaranteed, the army will collect as much as it has, and it will not worry about making money." ”

"Hong'er, how much money can you make from these things. Since your uncle has chosen to go into business, you have to ensure that he is rich and noble. After all, I am such a brother. ”

"Yes, yes! The queen mother is right, I will definitely let my uncle make a lot of money. Saying that, Liu Hong pondered for a moment and said, "Uncle, how about shipping, this thing is definitely a project to make a lot of money, and I am now working on this project with all my might." ”

"Shipping, my uncle has heard of this project. But this kind of sea ship is quite expensive, and with my uncle's family background, I can't afford it at all. Even if you can barely scrape together money to buy a ship, you will definitely not be able to buy the goods. ”

"It doesn't matter, isn't it just a ship, I honor my uncle and uncle, you just need to buy the goods. If you don't know what to get, you can ask Liu Zhong. As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hong felt that this was the first time that Empress Dowager Dong had ordered him to do things, and he should give more face, so he said: "Forget it, I will personally help my uncle arrange it tomorrow." ”

Hearing that Liu Hong was going to help Zhang Luo in person, Dong Pet hurriedly thanked him. And Empress Dowager Dong can be regarded as having a lot of face, and she is very happy.

Liu Hong is more realistic, since he promised others, he must do a good job. Especially here, there is also the face of Empress Dowager Dong. So I got up early the next morning, and together with Liu Zhong, I waited for Dong Pet in the South Palace.

"Uncle Zhong, this time I arranged Dong Pet, not only because he is my uncle, but also because this is the first time the Queen Mother has ordered me to do things, so this time things must be done beautifully."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Uncle Dong's affairs are very well arranged." Then, Liu Zhong said: "Now that the new type of steam ship has rolled off the assembly line, this is a high-end cargo that outsiders can't buy at a great price." Originally, Weichen still wanted to use it all to equip our own fleet, so let's give two ships to Uncle Dong Guo now. With these two ships as the base, absolutely no one can say that Your Majesty does not take care of your relatives. ”

"Oh, the steamship is off the line?"

Liu Hong was really surprised by this, although the steam engine had been invented a long time ago, but Liu Hong thought it was too polluting, so he only built a test line and sealed it. Some time ago, immigration began, and the pressure on transportation increased greatly, so Liu Hongcai opened the steam engine and wanted to build trains and railways. But unexpectedly, now that the train has not yet appeared, the steamship appeared first.

"Your Majesty, the steamship has been studying it for a long time. Now the steam engine is unsealed, as long as the steam engine is pressed to the ship according to the earlier design, it is done, and it is not troublesome at all. ”

"Oh, in that case, it shouldn't be a hassle to renovate the ship, why can't anyone else buy it?"

"Your Majesty, the main thing is that the output of the steam engine cannot go up. Most of the steam engines that are being built today are used on warships first. That is, our royal family, other civilian ships, don't want to transform them in a short time. ”

Liu Hong and Liu Zhong were talking, and Dong Pet came. In terms of business, Liu Hong is not good at it, just let him talk to Liu Zhong. Liu Hong's main thing is to help him introduce the main generals of the navy, so that he can know who to deal with.

In fact, Liu Hong can arrange for others to do this introduction. But since the Queen Mother has spoken, Liu Hong will personally help him introduce him.

Dong Pet also knew that this opportunity was rare, after all, Liu Hong personally met and introduced others on his behalf, and the importance of the representative was very different. So Dong Pet, thank you to Liu Hong.

The current supreme commander of the navy is Huangfu Gui's younger brother Huangfu Jie, that is, the father of the famous general Huangfu Song in the early Three Kingdoms. Originally, Huangfu Festival was not good at the navy, but Liu Hong did not have a more suitable candidate, considering that their family was a military attache family and had a family history, so he let him temporarily lead the navy first, and then change it when there was a suitable person.

Huangfu Festival is quite grateful to Liu Hong, after all, Liu Hong not only reused his brother, but also reused him, and also sent his son Huangfu Song to the lecture hall for further study, and he will definitely be reused in the future. Now Liu Hong personally introduced Dong Pet and said that Dong Pet will conduct sea trade in the future, so what does it mean that he still doesn't know, he must be able to help as much as he can.

Huangfu Festival is only the highest commander of the navy, and it is necessary for Dong Pet to know the specific things. Therefore, Liu Hong took Dong Pet to the Navy Special Combat Team to find Dong Zhuo.

When I met Dong Zhuo, this guy was practicing swimming. This made Liu Hong very emotional, this Dong Zhuo is really a good young man who knows how to make progress.

As soon as Dong Zhuo heard that Dong Pet was the elder brother of the Empress Dowager Dong, Dong Zhuo bowed his head. Dong Pet was very strange, and when he asked, he found out that Dong Zhuo was still close to his family.

This is a good thing, Dong Pet also pointed to Dong Zhuo to protect his sea boat, and regardless of whether they were really related or not, he directly recognized Dong Zhuo's nephew.
