Zhao Zheng was surprised when he heard You Xiong's roar, it should be that the voice conveyed was not joy and happiness at all, but anger and distortion. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"What's wrong? Restoration, not happy? Zhao Zheng's gentle and immature voice came.

You Xiong recovered from his emotions just now, and hurriedly excused himself, afraid that Zhao Zheng would misunderstand: "Happy!" Glad...... Little Immortal Chief, I'm glad you can do these things for me......"

Zhao Zheng looked curiously at You Xiong, who was insincere and unsatisfied, and suddenly said: "If you have any ideas for the restoration, you can tell me, I will exonerate you because there is something that needs to be troubled for you to do." ”

"What's the matter? The Restoration is dead. ”

Zhao Zheng pointed to the sea: "I got a merchant ship, but it's not for fishing, I need you to go down the sea and do sea trade." ”

You Xiong did not hesitate at all: "When?" ”

"Spring! I'm not ready yet! Restoration, can you tell me why now? ”

"Hmmm......"

Zhao Zheng looked at You Xiong's desperately patient expression, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "But it's because ...... You feel that you live like an ant, and it is not up to you to live, die or be rich. You are reading the books of the sages, and this world and this encounter are certainly not what you want. ”

You Xiongru was hit hard, and he couldn't help it: "No, no, the Restoration is not those rotten nerds. ”

Zhao Zheng smiled: "It's because you're not that I chose you to go to Nanyang." ”

"Restoration, this way of the world is to do what you Confucianism says, if it's not that the way of the world is wrong, then it's your Confucianism is wrong."

"What the sages say is wrong? All this is treacherous, and the villain beside the Son of Heaven is troubled. As soon as he said it, You Xiong knew that he had said the wrong thing, that Shi Xianggong was the backstage of the little immortal, how could he be so reckless.

Zhao Zheng waved his hand and made his cranky thoughts: "Since the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, how prosperous has it been?" Geometry in troubled times? ”

You Xiong was blocked by Zhao Zheng's words, but he still refused to admit defeat: "It was because of Confucianism that the situation of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was over? ”

"The rule of the three generations, why did Xia Shang Zhou prosper? Five chaos and chaos, what is the chaos? ”

"That's not because of Taoism." You Xiong muttered, and then apologized for feeling inappropriate: "Little Immortal Chief, I didn't mean that." ”

"Of course it's not because of Taoism, I just hope that you will find the answer yourself, and don't limit your eyes to the sage books." Zhao Zheng scratched his head, he didn't have to turn this world upside down, but saw You Xiong so entangled, some words were not spit out and unhappy, but as the conversation deepened, he was about to face the foundation of this world, Zhao Zheng immediately stopped it, now is not the time to talk about that.

――

When he returned to the house, Sun He was already waiting there, and he was annoyed when he saw Zhao Zheng.

"It seems that a martial artist like me is not suitable to be an official, and those who are officials speak in a fog, and the people who are around are upset! The master simply didn't accompany those, and it was a big deal not to be promoted. Anyway, being able to become this official is also the smoke of the ancestral tomb, no loss! ”

"Then you are in the wrong place to be annoyed, Brother Sun, I am a Taoist priest, and I am the guy who eats in the clouds."

"Hehe, the little fairy chief is not that kind of person, or you don't retreat in the afternoon, go out with me and ride a horse."

Zhao Zheng would use the excuse of retreat and practice every afternoon, and no one was allowed to disturb him, and then quietly turned on his mobile phone to copy books.

"Let's go with the Restoration!" Zhao Zheng said.

Sun He saw Zhao Zheng exalting You Xiong like this, and also invited: "Can Brother You ride a horse?" Brother, I'll teach you today. ”

――

The three of them went to the bottom of a mountain, where a group of craftsmen were busy digging coal mines, and eight blacksmiths were in full swing to build boilers.

"Little Immortal, this is the mountain you want?" Sun He brandished a horsewhip.

"Well, I promised Master that I would go back after the beginning of spring, so I asked people to work overtime to open the mine, but there is still a little shortage of manpower."

These things are done by You Xiong, he sighed secretly, not only is there not enough time, but the funds are also a little insufficient, these eight craftsmen are the first class of good hands to go to Fujian Road, not to mention the salary, three times the starting price, the most important thing is that people are afraid of folding their lives in Guangzhou, so You Xiong has a full mortgage of eighty yuan, if the person dies, the eighty yuan salary is considered the funeral expenses, Zhao Zheng gave him one thousand taels of silver has been spent seventy-seven eighty-eight.

"It's still working on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I'm afraid it's not a low salary." Sun He looked at the busy crowd in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

"After the New Year, I want to transfer the box army and those prisoners to come over and help me open the mine."

"This ......" Sun He hesitated, this mine is already Zhao Zheng's private property, and the army is a soldier of the imperial court, so the crime is big.

Zhao Zheng also knows that there is a taboo here, but if the boiler of the combined ammonia can't be done at this time, then don't think about the mass production of soda ash, and don't think about the two big money-making tools of glass and soap: "Sell sixty percent of this coal mine to the Panyu County Government, so that it will be regarded as a coal mine of the imperial court, and then transfer the box army over, which will be counted as miscellaneous labor, and I will pay the salary, and I will do it up and down, and it should not be a big problem." In addition, the sixty percent of the coal mines sold to the Panyu County Government can be converted into wages and paid to those van soldiers, and then the coal produced can be sold to me, and the sixty percent of the coal mines can also be mortgaged. ”

Sun He and You Xiong's eyes widened, this dazzling operation not only solved the problem, but also did not cost much money, the money from the sale of sixty percent of the coal mine to the government could not only be used to mortgage the wages, but also the coal money. Not to mention any taboos.

"High! The little fairy is really a good means! ”

"But in addition to mining coal, those vans also want them to help make workshops."

Sun He waved his hand: "These are not a matter, as long as there is a clear establishment." No one can fault anything. It's just that the little fairy is long, what is this workshop used for? ”

Zhao Zheng held his head high: "I have obtained a thing from alchemy, which can make crops grow faster and produce higher." Therefore, by extension, it wants to be mass-produced. "Combined ammonia can be used to make urea, and Zhao Zheng didn't coax them.

Sun He's eyes widened and he said loudly: "Why do you have to make such a twist and turn for the benefit of the country and the people, I don't believe that anyone would dare to stop this." ”

Zhao Zheng coughed dryly: "I will sell this thing." ”

――

Just after the Spring Festival, Zhao Zheng transferred Xiang Jun and those prisoners to open a mine, and Shi Miyuan helped him with it, and Zhao Guangle and Sun He helped him below.

Even if Zhao Zheng has ready-made drawings and specific operation methods, the steel used to build those boilers is not up to standard, and the temperature does not go up, and there are many impurities due to insufficient reflection. In some places, this situation will also occur because the seal is not in place, and a series of factors such as insufficient reactants for desulfurization and decarburization have seriously restricted the production of combined ammonia.

Zhao Zheng also knew that the progress of these technologies could not be rushed, but the glass and soap could not be manufactured, which would seriously affect his next plan.

In addition, Zhao Zheng needs a large amount of table salt, which is used to produce soda ash.

Leaning on the sea, there is no shortage of salt, but since the Han Dynasty, this salt and iron has always been a private patent of the imperial court, if anyone dares to touch it, it is a big crime to punish the nine clans.

So I had to ask Zhao Guangle to dry the sea salt in the name of the government, and then sell it to Zhao Zheng. Anyway, taking this opportunity, the government can collect more business taxes, and this annual assessment of officials will get a better evaluation, and Zhao Guangle is also happy to do so.

However, Zhao Zheng's purse is also withering, he has written to Zaoyang, asking Shi Songzhi to send the share of the silver mine for these three months, and now it is the New Year's Day, and he can't find a suitable person to escort him. I'm afraid that the money will be delayed until the end of the month.

But before the Lantern Festival arrived, a pair of Haohao Tangtang's convoy entered the city of Guangzhou.

The person who came was Wang Fucai, who had become a little emaciated, but became more and more energetic. led a team of more than 60 people to the outside of Zhao Zheng's mansion.

Zhao Zheng saw that it was Wang Yuanwai, his eyes were hot, and the old people of Zaoyang, as if he had seen Master Dalang Erlang and them, burst out and shouted: "Uncle Wang." ”

Wang Fucai heard that he almost fell off the horse, and hurriedly shouted: "I can't help it, I can't help it, the little fairy is breaking my life." If the little fairy doesn't dislike it, just call me Ah Fu. ”

"Ah Fu ......" Zhao Zheng read, isn't this the loyal servant in my lie to the master?

Zhao Zheng stroked Wang Fucai: "Zhao Zheng is a person in the red dust, what do you say if you don't break your life, I will call you Uncle Afu in the future, you just call me San Lang." "Looking at Wang Fucai's dust, you know that he came over just after the New Year, no matter what the reason, let him dare to enter and exit this poisonous miasma, and Zhao Zheng has to admit it.

Wang Fucai didn't dare to hold it up, but he really wanted to be close to Zhao Zheng, so he said, "Why don't I call you Sanlang Immortal?" ”
