Canglang Pavilion is located in the south of Suzhou City, which was originally the pool hall of Sun Chengyou, the envoy of Wu Yuezhong Wu Jun Festival in the Five Dynasties. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Su Shunqin bought it with 40,000 yuan in the early Song Dynasty, moved flowers and trees, surrounded mountains and water, covered an area of 16 acres, made it more spectacular, and changed its name to Canglang Pavilion. In the Southern Song Dynasty, it was the residence of Han Shizhong, and it was more than 600 years at this time.

Canglang Pavilion is a water ring garden, and it is unique in Suzhou gardens to see the scenery before entering the garden. At this time, it is the early spring season, it is February in the south of the Yangtze River, as soon as you enter the garden, the spring flowers are everywhere, the spring breeze is blowing, the spring water is long, you stay between the pavilions and pavilions, the clouds and trees smoke and reeds, the pink walls and tiles, it is really the scenery everywhere at will.

Such a grand place, even the emperor and princesses have never seen, the royal garden pays attention to an atmosphere, and the Jiangnan garden, the square inch of the land also has a cave, everywhere can be seen exquisite, a grass and a tree, a pavilion and a pavilion, a stone and a water are all carefully carved, which makes people feel happy.

As soon as the three princesses arrived here, they immediately fell in love with this resort, and if they had to return to the north, they would definitely buy it and take it for themselves. As soon as they entered the garden, the three princesses excitedly walked around hand in hand, and Yang Ling and Gu Dayong also accompanied the emperor to wander around.

Finally, when he arrived at the southernmost part of the Canglang Pavilion, Gu Dayong pointed to the three-story small building like a fairyland Qiong Building under the shade of bamboo and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this place is called Kanshan Tower, and this is your residence."

When he arrived in such an elegant place, even Emperor Zhengde seemed to be contaminated with a bit of elegance, he nodded with a smile and said: Concubine, what do you think of this? ”

Tang Yixian also praised: "This garden is full of scenery, exquisite, wherever you live, it is like a paradise fairyland, and the name of paradise on earth in Suzhou and Hangzhou is really worthy of its name."

Yang Ling smiled, turned to Gu Dayong and asked, "Father-in-law Gu, has the residence of the three princesses also been arranged?" ”

Gu Dayong said with a smile: A princess lives in the Lotus Flower Water Pavilion. When the emperor's residence is settled, the old slave will go immediately."

Zhengde said with great interest: "I don't need to arrange, I haven't seen enough of the grand scenery in this garden, Xian'er, let's walk around." Dayong, you go and arrange the residence of the three princesses, Yang Qing also lives in the Canglang Pavilion, you can settle them together."

Emperor Zhengde took Tang Yixian's hand with great interest, and the two walked side by side to the depths of the forest where flowers and trees were sparse and bamboo trees were cultivated.

This garden is surrounded by water on three sides, but the water is outside the garden, the garden is famous for its mountain scenery, everywhere is a variety of rare trees, even if a random stone next to the path is carefully selected, placed appropriately, make people forget the vulgar.

Seeing the emperor and the imperial concubine leaving, Gu Da straightened his waist and praised with his big fingers: "Grandpa Guo still understands the emperor's thoughts, the emperor is satisfied with this garden, the emperor is happy, and our family is happy."

Yang Ling smiled and said: "Yes, I don't know how much money my father-in-law spent, go back and report the amount to me, and I will pay the bill."

It turned out that Yang Ling did not just temporarily requisition this garden, but bought it with silver. Gu Da shook his hands with a hearing and said, "Guogong is polite, a small garden." Why do you want to hide from the Guogong, the garden here has become a monk's house, so it is very easy to buy, it doesn't cost a few pennies, do we still divide each other with the Guogong? ”

Gu Dayong said, took out a real estate deed from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Yang Ling's hand with a smile, a famous garden through the ages, which became the Yang family's industry.

Yang Ling pushed a few sentences, then smiled and took the land deed into his sleeve, he knew that Gu Dayong was in charge of maritime affairs in Jiangnan, no matter foreign businessmen, domestic businessmen, and super-rich families, they all had to deal with him, but they didn't want to be greedy, and the silver they received was also piled up, scraping his oil and water, Yang Ling was not uneasy.

Seeing that Yang Ling accepted the deed, Gu Da smiled with the folds on his face, the one who received the gift was happy, and the one who gave the gift was not happy? This world is sometimes impossible to guess with common sense.

Gu Dayong asked cautiously at this time: "Grandpa Guo, when the emperor came to Suzhou and Hangzhou this time, is he going to walk around and enjoy the scenery of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, or does he have ulterior motives, do you think our family needs to pay attention to something?" ”

Yang Ling smiled slightly, walked along the corridor with Gu Dayong, wandered among the landscapes, flowers and plants, and walked along the bamboo forest path to a Yaxuan "Cui Linglong", which hung a couplet at the door: "The autumn color enters the forest and the red is dim, and the moonlight passes through the green and exquisite."

Walk into the room, only to see the window is bright and clean, concise name, the mahogany furniture is decorated with bamboo patterns, and the room hangs a couplet: "the flute of the wind fence, the flowing water is the sound of the piano".

The two walked to the room and sat on the two official hat chairs, and Yang Ling said: "The emperor's Nanxing this time is to suppress King Ning's rebellion, and now that King Ning's rebellion has subsided, of course the emperor wants to visit this paradise on earth."

Gu Dayong heard that the emperor was just coming to Suzhou and Hangzhou for a tour, and his expression suddenly relaxed, but he heard Yang Ling say again: "However, my father-in-law must also know that the emperor is becoming an adult, working hard and ambitious, and the emperor has implemented a new policy in the court, and the whole country has a new atmosphere." So don't you see him coming with the imperial concubine and princess, the emperor is most concerned about the exhibition in Jiangnan, especially in Suzhou and Hangzhou."

Gu Dayong immediately became nervous again, now he is the eunuch of Suzhou Town and the governor of the maritime yamen, if the emperor is not satisfied with his government affairs, this fat difference will have to be handed over. Gu Dayong hurriedly said nervously: "So, I don't know what situations the emperor is concerned about?" I hope that the prince of the country will mention more."

Yang Ling said with a smile: "Naturally, weaving, porcelain, silk, tea mulberry, and shipping are the top priorities related to the national economy and people's livelihood." How are you doing now? What is the yield? How profitable is it each year? There are still problems, and so on. Naturally, you have to arrange those weaving workshops or something, and the emperor will definitely go to see them."

Gu Da panicked, hurriedly stood up, and said helplessly: "Our family doesn't know that the emperor will come to Suzhou and Hangzhou to inspect these things, and everything will be prepared in the future, how can this be good?" ”

Yang Ling saw that he was in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Why should Grandpa Gu be in a hurry? In this way, tomorrow I will accompany the emperor to walk around the city, appreciate the customs and folklore of Suzhou, I will drag it for you for three or two days, you take advantage of this effort to prepare, all kinds of information must be prepared and memorized, the emperor must answer the question like a stream, the emperor sees that you are doing errands with your heart, and will be more appreciative."

"Yes, yes, yes. Okay, good," Gu Da said hurriedly, turned around and wanted to run out of the door, but suddenly thought that the three princesses had not yet arranged, which really made him anxious.

Yang Ling saw his panicked appearance, so he stood up with a smile and said: "Father-in-law, you are running an errand in Suzhou and Hangzhou, this is the first stop of our Ming Dynasty facing overseas, you can't just provide the emperor with the economic situation in Suzhou and Hangzhou, you have to learn more, and even the products and operations of other places, and put forward some unique suggestions to the emperor, I believe that this maritime yamen of the Ming Dynasty, except for your father-in-law Gu, there is no second person who can shake it."

Gu Da patted his head and said: "Yes, I can't just take care of my own one-third of an acre, the emperor's vision is in the whole world, thank you for reminding Grandpa Guo."

He took out a large volume of silver tickets from his sleeve, stuffed it into Yang Ling's hand, and said, "Our family will immediately gather people to make various preparations, bother the national government, and accompany the emperor to visit the city for a few more days." This bit of silver, please take it, if you see something interesting in the city, you can buy some at will, our family has to be busy with this matter, we can't follow it with you, everything is in trouble with Guogong."

Hand played, providing the latest hand novels to read

"You're welcome, what else do we have to share with each other", Yang Ling said with a smile: "Father-in-law, go and get busy, leave the affairs in this garden to me, after a while, I will arrange Jiang Bin and others to arrange guards around the Canglang Pavilion, and go to place the residence of the three princesses, rest assured, with me, greet the emperor, the princess, and the princess, no one will say that you will be slow."

Gu Da said with gratitude: "It's really ...... for the prince to treat me, and I don't thank you for my kindness!" ”

He clasped his hands into fists, knocked twice at Yang Ling, and as soon as he lifted the placket of his robe, he rushed out in a rage.

Yang Ling watched him leave with a smile, then raised his legs and walked out of the "Cui Linglong", walking along the corridor, the bamboo swaying, the new branches spitting green, and the flowers blooming, which was beautiful. Walking on the water-attached corridor, twists and turns, light and deep, there are many leaky windows on the corridor wall next to it, all kinds of pattern panes, none of them are the same, it is really ingenious.

Yang Ling walked to the lotus flower water pavilion, only to see the small courtyard in front of the pavilion flowers and trees sparse, the beech trees are lush, and there is a simple tree in the north of the window, enough for one person to hug more than enough. There are lotus flowers planted in the north stream, blue lotus clear water, gurgling ripples, Yang Ling looked at it for a long time, suddenly raised his hand and patted it, and immediately flashed out of nowhere Two people came out of nowhere and saluted him.

Yang Ling asked, "Where are the three princesses now?" ”

One of them replied respectfully, "The three highnesses are now at the fish viewing place."

Yang Ling smiled slightly and said, "Lead me forward."

The southeast and the line of the wonderful fragrance room", and through the "idle pavilion", come to the "fish viewing place", only to see a pavilion abruptly near the water, there are weeping willows on the side of the pavilion, ripples slightly. The tower is near the waves, and the shadow enters the Ming Lake, and there are just three enchanting beauties like willows swinging in the wind and watching the fish in the water.

The small pavilion is quaint, the four eaves fly like the water and the swallow wants to rise, the stream is clear and clear, like a pool of jade Jianqiongtian, the fish play is clear and rippling, the reflection of the weeping waves, Yang Ling walks to the near place, sees the beauty and beautiful scenery are suitable, and can not bear to get closer.

Among the three, Yongfu is the tallest, Yang Ling saw that she was wearing goose yellow clothes, silver and red armor, green onion and white water wave skirt, a stone green plum blossom silk, slender waist, self-portrait with water, show crow black, swaying shadow. Yang Ling was looking at herself, and Princess Yongfu, who was watching the fish by the water, suddenly felt something, and as soon as she turned her head, she met Yang Ling's eyes.

Seeing Yang Ling standing not far away, looking at her stupidly, Princess Yongfu couldn't help but bow her head and smile shyly, and her cheeks were like peaches in an instant. She bit her lip and raised her eyes to look at Yang Ling, delicate as if she was smiling, her jade fingers twisted her chest lightly, that girlish shyness, dignified and charming, it was really indescribably moving.

Yang Ling's heart shook when he saw it, and he just thought in his heart: "Princess Xiuning treats me with deep affection, this time I can't bear others anymore no matter what, no matter what royal rules he has, this time I must make clever arrangements, this mermaid, I want to decide!" ”

*********

Suzhou municipal is the first in the world, not only the river water inside and outside the city is intricate, it can be used for transportation and washing, and there are hundreds of ditches, the water flow is smooth, and the road is paved with small stones, that is, in rainy days, it can not cause wet feet, so there is a saying that "red embroidered shoes can be worn on rainy days".

"The warbler at the mouth of the Yellow Bird Lane wants to speak, and the ice at the head of the Wuque River wants to disappear. Green waves, east, west, north and south, red fence 390 bridges. "The alleys are elegant, pleasant, full of tranquility, stepping on the quiet stone road, looking at the exquisite brick carved gatehouse, the stone well with deep rope grooves, the colorful flower windows, the exquisite and beautiful courtyard and the style built by the water, it is really a rare beauty.

However, Emperor Zhengde and Yang Ling felt quite miserable, Calyx, Pujia Lane, Lotus Seed Lane, Yingxiaoli, Taohuawu, Da Liuzhi Lane, ......, who knew that these little girls who looked delicate and timid would go shopping. How can a pair of jade feet have such great strength and strength?

Zhu Gongzi and Yang Gongzi were holding a small gold-painted fan in their hands, but now they were eager for the fan to become a crutch, and their feet were about to break, but Tang Yixian and the three princesses seemed to be still in high spirits, and they had neither the intention of going back, nor the consciousness of getting on the sedan chair.

The two of them cast a helpless look at each other, young people, they can't let the inner guards who are dressed as family guards carry them away, right?

Zhengde approached Yang Ling and said with a sad face: "Yang Qing, your sister is really good." Next time, I'm going to say that I won't go shopping with them anymore."

Yang Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, your three royal sisters are not weak in their feet." The minister's legs are about to break."

The four beauties in front of them were chatting while walking, and they were full of interest. Suddenly, the two uncles who were responsible for digging out the money disappeared, Tang Yixian looked back, and couldn't help but say: "The two of you, why are you walking slower and slower."

Zhengde sighed, and was about to raise his legs to chase after him, but Yang Ling suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said to the side: "Your Majesty, look, there is a painting gallery, let's go in and let the painter paint portraits of the imperial concubine and the three princesses." Hehe, after the four portraits are drawn, we must be able to rest."

Zhengde's eyes lit up, and he praised: It was Yang Qing's tricks to chase them back, and I can't do it anymore."

When the four beauties heard that they didn't want to go anymore, they were a little unhappy at first, but when they heard that they were going to ask a painter to paint their portraits, they readily agreed.

The flags outside the small building are fluttering, but the inside is deserted, it seems that business is not good today. At that time, it became a custom for Gusu painters to make a living from painting, and the market was very high, which gave rise to the Wumen painting school. Suzhou and Hangzhou customs, with the ability to make money, but do not care that poetry and articles are elegant things, can not touch the money and vulgarity, the price is clearly marked, that is justifiable. [Heaven's Kiss Hand-hitting]

As soon as I saw that there were many guests coming in, and they were dressed and behaved, they were obviously from a wealthy family, and the old man who was dozing off on the desk couldn't help but squint and straighten his waist, and two elementary school apprentices stepped forward to greet him attentively: "Two sons, a few young ladies, please come in, please come in, please sit down, and the little one will make you tea immediately."

Zhengde and Yang Ling grabbed a chair at the same time and sat down, then stretched out their feet and groaned and gasped. The four girls rolled their eyes at the two ungentlemanly fellows, and went to sit down at another table.

The young apprentice quickly brought the tea, and the old gentleman got up slowly and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the shop, the old decay of the drawings and seals are hanging on the four walls, you can take your own view, each fifty wen, no bargaining."

Yang Ling moistened his throat and said with a smile: "Old man, we don't want these calligraphy and paintings hanging on the four walls, I don't know if the old man is good at drawing characters ......."

A primary school apprentice next to him blurted out: "That's natural, my master is the best at drawing figures, even when Tang Yin is there, he may not be better than my master in this regard."

The old man glared at him, smiled reservedly, and said, "The portrait of the lady is also hanging on the four walls, and the two sons are ......."

Yang Ling shook his head and said: "It's not like this, we want to ask the old gentleman to draw a portrait of each of these four young ladies, do you think it's okay?" ”

The old man was a little surprised, he turned his head to look at the four girls sitting at the table, and nodded slowly: "Yes, it's just that this painted figure will take a long ......time."

Zhengde was overjoyed, as long as he could drag on this day, the longer it was, the better, and hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, as long as you paint both form and spirit, there is no problem with how long you wait."

The old man smiled and said, "This painted figure is not fifty pieces of text."

Zhengde said generously: "It doesn't matter, you say, how much silver is a piece?" ”

The old man looked at these people who were well-dressed, talked generously, and said boldly: "One hundred texts and one painting."

"No problem!" Zhengde waved his hand and said very generously: "A painting is a tael of silver!" Brother Wannian, you pay the bill."

Yang Ling laughed dryly, and said to the old man who was staring wide-eyed in surprise: "Zhu Gongzi has a problem of liking to increase the price, two silver and a painting, the old gentleman, let's start writing."

The old man was in good spirits, he really ran into a loser today, one or two silvers and a pair, so what else would he not want, the old man immediately ordered the two disciples to lay out pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and various colors of paint, and the old man hung a thing in his arms slowly on his eyes, and then walked to the back of the table and sat down, and smiled: "Which young lady paints first?" ”

Yang Ling didn't care at first, he lowered his head and drank two sips of tea, and when he looked up and saw the old man's appearance, this sip of tea almost sprayed all the tea on the opposite side of Zhengde's face, Yang Ling pointed at the old man in surprise and said: Sir, what are you wearing on your eyes? ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and before he could answer, Zhengde had already smiled and said: "This is a sage, and the old and dizzy people can wear it to see clearly and enhance their eyesight."

Yang Ling was dumbfounded, when he built the sailor, he thought that if he had a telescope, his eyesight would be several times better than that of the enemy, and he would anticipate the enemy's aircraft on the sea first, and he didn't know how much it would work, but he thought that he had not seen the glass that could be used to make a convex lens at that time, so he had to do this idea.

Who knows...... Who knew that the people already had glasses, so how difficult it was to make telescopes? If there is this thing, not only on the sea, but also on the prairie, the clairvoyant Ming army fights with an opponent with black eyes, and I don't know how many opportunities to seize.

The reason why the telescope did not come out is that no one in this era understands its principle, but Yang Ling knows its principle, but he does not know how to make glass.

Yang Ling was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked over and said, "Old man, can you put these glasses... Do you give students a look? ”

Zhengde smiled: "Do you want this thing?" Wait until you get back to the palace...... When I get back, I'll give you a few pairs."

Yang Ling was about to faint, it turns out that this thing is also in the palace? If only he had told people about the idea of a telescope, maybe someone would have reminded him that there were already materials in the world that could make this kind of clairvoyance, and that he didn't usually have the opportunity to come into contact with them, so he didn't expect to see them here by accident.

Yang Ling couldn't hold it back, so he took the glasses from the old man's hand, looked at them carefully for a long time, and confirmed that they were the lenses, so he returned them. The old man had two oval lenses, fixed with iron wire to make frames, but before the temples were visible, they were pierced in the sides of the lenses, tied with silk threads, and hung on their ears when they were used.

Yang Ling was amazed, returned to the table and sat down to ask Zhengde, it turned out that glasses had been in ancient China, according to ancient records, there was originally a mosquito in the rosin resin crystal, through the rosin to see, the mosquito body shape was enlarged, which attracted the attention of craftsmen, and then used natural crystal to polish the convex lens.

Zhu Hou has read a lot of miscellaneous books, and he doesn't know much about serious things, he has seen a lot of miscellaneous things, and there are many solitary books in the palace.

It turns out that as early as the Warring States Period, Mozi already contained many expositions on Mozi's study of light and flat mirrors, convex mirrors, and concave mirrors. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Heng understood the waxing and waning of the moon and the preliminary reasons for the lunar eclipse, which was also with the help of lenses.

In the Song Dynasty, there were literati who used crystal lenses to improve their eyesight, and in the Yuan Dynasty, even the Mongols knew how to use this kind of thing, and it was transmitted to Venice by a man named Marco Polo, and then spread to the whole of Europe. In the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, reading glasses were clear, but because the crystal was precious and not easy to obtain, it was used as an important gift, and it was generally given to the old minister by the emperor as a royal gift, so Zhengde knew a lot about it.

It's just that it's not easy to carry it without temples, and those ministers don't bring it when they go to court, and if they use it in the study when they return home, Yang Ling doesn't know, he can't think of asking, and no one tells him. Where can ordinary people afford this kind of thing, the old painter is still a portrait drawn by an old lady from a wealthy family, and the owner of the family gave him such an expensive good thing, by coincidence, and now it is Yang Ling.

Yang Lingxi diligently told Zhengde about the function of the two lenses to create a long-distance effect, and Zhengde was dumbfounded when he heard it. He really couldn't think of two crystals that could have the effect of clairvoyance. If it weren't for the unbearable pain in his legs now, coupled with Tang Yixian's forehand holding incense cheeks, waiting for the old man to paint her, he would have pulled Yang Ling up and rushed back all the way, asking someone to make this magical thing immediately to enjoy.

The old man seemed to be particularly good at drawing figures, Tang Yixian's portrait was drawn, it was far faster than expected, and when the coloring was finished, Tang Yixian saw his appearance leap on the paper, and his expression was as if he wanted to break through the paper, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. The three princesses were even more moved when they saw it, and Yongfu was already sitting on the seat, happily waiting for the painter to continue painting her portrait.

Yang Ling and Emperor Zhengde drank tea and chatted, and when they painted Princess Yongchun, they had already rested, so they paced in the room at will, admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the four walls. Yang Ling was looking at a landscape painting with far-reaching artistic conception and was leisurely distracted, Zhengde paced to the desk and flipped through it at will, and suddenly beckoned: "Brother Wannian, come quickly."

Yang Ling hurriedly walked over, only to see Zhengde look at the imperial concubine and sister who were concentrating on admiring the portrait with a mysterious expression, and then made a gesture to hurry over. Yang Ling leaned over to take a look, only to see two booklets on the table, one was written "Spring Water Spectrum", and the other was half-turned and half-closed by Zhengde, only to see the two big characters "Mandarin Duck" on it.

"It's the album ......", Yang Ling just said three words, Zhengde had already stopped him with his eyes, and then coughed, posing like a decent gentleman and said: Brother Nian, what do you think of this picture scroll?"

Yang Ling came to him, and Zhengde opened the album, but it turned out to be a picture of the Spring Palace. A primary school apprentice came up with a smile: "Two sons, this is my master's handwriting, it turns out that there is also a Tang Yin with the same name as my master, since that person went to Japan, this painting spring ......."

Ling's face also changed, and he said with a righteous face: "Don't talk too much, we will appreciate it ourselves."

The elementary school apprentice couldn't help but laugh when he saw the appearance of the two of them, in fact, the spring palace picture was not a thing to see in the Ming Dynasty, not only the literati liked to appreciate it, but everyone also had a pattern drawing, for the lack of sex education at that time, this thing not only played a role in teaching knowledge, but also used it to spice up the boudoir and treat some psychological diseases.

At that time, it was said that Jiangnan was the atmosphere near Jingshi, and there was no disdain for the Spring Palace map, but Zhengde and Yang Ling had different identities, and if the four beauties next to them appeared, they couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, so the two of them didn't dare to speak, and they couldn't help but be laughed at by the elementary school.

Zhengde opened the first picture, only to see a tree of spring flowers, bamboo fence across the water, the sunset is red, half of the river, a bamboo couch on the shore lies on the back of a half-naked man, a graceful woman with only a small dress on the upper body sits on the body infinitely, the artistic conception is beautiful, and there is also the poem "stop and sit and love the maple forest evening".

Let's carry the latest talk

Flip another one, but through the screen window, a glimpse of the spring scene in the boudoir, a pair of men and women lying prone on the bed, another woman next to them is undressing Luo, the third pair is in the courtyard, a young woman is lying in the arms of another half of a beautiful woman, a man is lying on her body, that each picture is accompanied by verses, the artistic conception is also elegant and beautiful, which makes people feel immersive.

Zhengde's face was red and his ears were hot, he swallowed his saliva, cleared his throat, pointed to the booklet and said, "This, how much is it?" ”

The junior apprentice hurried over and said with a smile: "Son, there are a total of sixteen paintings in this album, and you need to ......."

He wanted to say five taels of silver, but remembering that this son was extremely generous and spent money like running water, he stretched out a slap and gestured back and forth: "Get this number."

De remained silent, turned his back to Tang Yixian and the three royal sisters and hid the album in his sleeve, stretched out a finger to Yang Ling, and then looked up at a picture of pine and plum cranes on the wall casually, and looked extremely fascinated.

Yang Ling looked at the moving painting of the Spring Palace, and flipped through the book "Spring Water Spectrum" on the table, which was indeed a Spring Palace, and hurriedly put it into his arms, took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels and handed it to the young man, his heart was pounding, and he said softly: "That's all, don't look for it."

The young man opened it and looked at it, and immediately opened his mouth and couldn't close it, these two losers are really rare. The young man didn't say a word, and immediately took out three more books from the bottom of the cabinet, and said mysteriously: "Son, there are three more books here, there are so many in total, it takes a month to paint a book, do you want it?" Three, it's still the same number".

Yang Ling felt like he was buying wool for the first time that year, he was afraid that he would be seen by the princesses, so he hurriedly took it and stuffed it into his sleeve, and then handed over a silver ticket. As soon as Zhengde pulled his sleeve, the two brothers left immediately, and walked side by side to a picture of a mandarin duck playing in the water in the corner, while looking up at the picture, Zhengde said softly: "How many more copies?" Give me two more."

Yang Ling's big sleeves were next to him, and he quietly handed over the two copies, and Zhengde hid them and threw them over: After reading those two copies, remember to exchange them with me."

After Zhengde finished speaking, the two brothers gave each other a look, tacitly laughed a few times, and then turned around and said to Tang Yixian with a spring breeze on his face: "You have finished appreciating it." Come, let me see your portrait."

At this time, Yongchun had already finished painting the portrait, jumped up and said with a smile: "Brother, where are we going to play tomorrow?" ”

De was frightened and grinned, "Do you want to come out tomorrow?" ”

Yang Ling jumped over with an arrow step, coughed and said: "Tomorrow, it's already arranged, let's go to the play, hahaha, watch the play and listen to Kunqu Opera"

********

Three days, three days later, Gu Gongxiong came to see the emperor in high spirits.

Miracles can be born at any time, and after three days of hard work, Gu Gonggong, who does not learn or know, has become an economist with a good mind and a fluent answer.

In the Mingdao Hall, Emperor Zhengde sat in the center, Tang Yixian and the three princesses and Yang Ling sat on the left and right, looking at this Gu Gonggong's chest high, talking eloquently like Zhuge Liang in the Kunhua drama he admired yesterday, Tang Yixian couldn't help but smile, and whispered that he listened to Yongfu, Yongfu saw that Gu Dayong's posture was really interesting, and he couldn't help but be embarrassed.

Do you say that even the incense burner, hemp hand towels, rattan tools, inscriptions, and framing also have rich gentry gathering factories and large-scale production? Emperor Zhengde listened intently and interjected.

In the same way, not only is the output extremely high, which can meet the large demand of Japan, Korea, Ryukyu, Luzon and even the South Seas, but the cost is extremely low, and their countries are not only unable to compare with us in terms of quality, but they are deliberately lowering prices, or they cannot compete with us, and merchants from all over the world are eager for our Ming goods."

Gu Dayong stared at a pair of red eyes that stayed up all night and memorized information, and said confidently: "In order to purchase commodities nearby, these feudal states have opened commercial offices in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Changzhou, and I have also opened a large number of chambers of commerce in the local area of Zhufu Road, focusing on providing various commodities and goods. ”

He glanced at Yang Ling and said with a smile: "Guogong once provided a new method of bookkeeping to the old slave, and sent a few bookkeepers who are familiar with this method of bookkeeping, which is much better than the traditional method, and now it has been promoted in Jiangnan, and all major merchants use this method of bookkeeping."

Yang Ling smiled and interjected: "Suzhou is the first in the world in weaving, and it is also an important source of taxes in Suzhou.

Gu Dayong lifted his spirits, this is what he is most proud of, Yang Ling can be regarded as scratching his itch, Gu Dayong said: "Suzhou weaving is exquisite, the only problem is that the supply of raw materials and output is insufficient after the opening of the sea."

The old slave organized all the machine owners, and united the weavers who each owned a dozen or dozens of looms in the form of shareholding management, and now set up four factories dedicated to weaving. Wuhu area has also set up a professional large-scale dyeing workshop and kicking workshop, the weaving workshop specializes in weaving, the dyeing workshop specializes in dyeing cloth, and the kicking workshop specializes in pressing cloth.

Each of these factories has more than 3,000 weavers, and can produce cotton cloth and silk fabrics 450,000 horses a year, but because of the great demand inside and outside the Ming Dynasty, the supply is still in short supply, and the price is rising.

Now if you want to make more money, you can only reduce the cost as much as possible, so these factories have also specially organized some experienced old mechanics and weavers, and are studying and improving looms and spinning wheels. At present, hydraulic multi-spindle spinning wheels and three-layer looms have been developed. The cotton seeding churning truck, which originally required two people to operate, has now been greatly improved, and one person can be used for three or four people. In addition, there are a variety of special looms such as silk machines, silk machines, luo machines, yarn machines, silk machines, etc.

Emperor Zhengde was overjoyed to hear it, Yang Ling was also excited, the division of labor is getting more and more detailed, the scale is getting bigger and bigger, the technology is getting higher and higher, with the arrival of the 6 consecutive in Western countries, the demand is further increased, and the vigorous industrial production is not far away.

But the problem of raw materials is obviously more important at this time, and he hurriedly asked: "So how to solve the problem of raw materials?" If this problem is not solved, it will inevitably affect further development, you know, now that Western countries have come to China to negotiate business, the flow of goods will inevitably increase. The lack of raw materials is too restrictive."

Gu Dayong said: "Now there are rich gentry to Shandong and Henan to contact and order, set the amount of mulberry cotton planted this year in advance, pay the deposit first, and ship it after autumn." If there is a local shortage, it will be provided from other provincial roads. At the same time, the production of silk cotton still has problems such as low yield and serious loss.

Yan Song, the prefect of Hangzhou, applied for a sum of money from the maritime yamen, which was used to recruit skilled craftsmen to study the improvement of silkworm raising and silk reeling, to select excellent silkworm species for cultivation, to select excellent mulberry tree species, to study the prevention and control of silkworm diseases, and to improve the methods of silkworm breeding, cocooning, and silk reeling.

Zhengde's face also showed a look of approval, he nodded, and suddenly remembered that there were officials who impeached Jiangnan for vigorously developing industry and commerce, and the limited manpower was invested in these industries for profit, and the land was abandoned to grow mulberry, and there was a fear of harming the country and the local area.

After Zhengde asked, Gu Dayong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he only cared about studying how to show his merits, and what adverse effects on other industries did not make a sound, and he was still talking, and the emperor had no words to ask him. As soon as Gu Da turned to Yang Ling with a pleading look, Yang Ling took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this problem is easy to solve, not only Gonggong Gu knows, but even Weichen also knows very well." ”

Several princesses were about to fall asleep when they listened to these national events, but as soon as they heard Yang Ling speak, Yongfu and Princess Xiang'er lifted their spirits, and their two pairs of bright eyes poured on him.

Yang Ling Shi Ran said: "Your Majesty, the area from Shanghai to Taicang was originally a barren area, but now it has been opened up into a large cotton factory, in addition, the cultivation of cotton mulberry in Shandong and Henan has gradually become a trend, which can provide a large number of raw materials. Coupled with the improvement of the process and the reduction of the loss of the technology, it can fully meet the needs of Jiangnan weaving.

As for manpower, the Ming Dynasty now wants to develop agriculture and industry, and the population is indeed greatly insufficient, and the manpower required for cotton production is more than twice that of ordinary grain crops, and the production of sericulture is more than ten times, but it is an exaggeration to say that it has transferred all the labor force to these places.

Because the planting of rice in the south of the Yangtze River and the cultivation of cotton mulberry are not only different in terms of labor time, their labor force is also completely different, the cultivation of cotton mulberry is mainly for the old and weak women, in the case of no cotton mulberry can be planted, they can only be hired to pick tea in the tea area, other people can only stay at home and do nothing, now there is something to do, not only can earn an income for the family, its family status is also improved, it is exactly what it is. ”

"If you want to be the hegemon of the world, the industrial and commercial exhibition is the only way, it is not advisable to blindly restrict cotton mulberry, it is a fact that cotton mulberry can make money, can the imperial court force the people not to plant mulberry and cotton? You can't give up food because of choking, you have to find another solution. Gu Gonggong, now Jiangnan imports a lot of grain from Nanyang, such as Siamese rice? ”

Gu Dayong said with a smile: "Exactly, but it is not we who take the initiative to buy it, but the merchant ships of other countries take the initiative to transport it, and they need our goods, so they will bring the rice and grain to barter, which is enough for us to eat." Furthermore, we have gold and silver in hand, and we can buy them at any time when we need them. There's nothing to worry about."

Yang Ling nodded, and said: "In addition, with the successful trial planting of Nanyang rice seeds, sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other materials introduced by our Daming, a large area has been planted this year. It can also be used as a reserve for grain storage. In addition, many places in the country are still barren and undeveloped, especially the gradual pacification of the northwest and northeast, and even the immigration of Nuer Gandusi, which will soon become a big granary. ”

Yang Ling smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, Daming is the only Ming in the world, each place should show its strengths, Jiangnan can make a lot of money, then let it make money, to develop industry." The inner 6 should be farming, and it will be specially exhibited for family farming, and there is no exchange.

The voices of chickens and dogs are heard by each other, the old and the dead do not get along, and the food and clothing have to be self-sufficient in various places, which is not enough. Just like the Suzhou weavers originally did the whole process from weaving to dyeing by themselves, each household has prepared all the housework, not only costs more, but also the cost and efficiency are many times worse than the current division of labor and cooperation.

Moreover, with such cooperation, the entire Ming Dynasty is more dependent on each other, which is also more conducive to local stability. It is not so easy for anyone to fight against the world and the emperor with the power of only one place. ”

Zhengde high-fived and said: "Wonderful, I am a big country, I should have the atmosphere of a big country, how can I be so small, say it well, say it well, it is this truth." ”

He smiled and said to Gu Dayong: "Dayong has always been loyal and dedicated to doing things for me, and I am very pleased. You have become a little more tempered at the same time as you are in your youth, and you have been so involved in the arrest of Maitreya that you have been punished for your mistakes, and after this setback, you have become very stable.

After arriving in Jiangnan, I am very satisfied with what you have done, and I am very happy. Great use, I give you a python robe as a token of appreciation. I work hard, Jiangnan is my pillar and must be guarded by me! ”

Gu Da was surprised, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and responded in a trembling voice: "Emperor Xie, Emperor Xie, the emperor is gracious, the old slave has done his best for the emperor, and he will not hesitate to smear his liver and brains!" ”

Sitting on a python robe, Liu Jin didn't take a lot of effort to get a python robe, Zhengde Dynasty has only Yang Ling who has this honor so far, and now he also has a python robe, this glory is the only one among the old partners of the Eight Tigers.

Encouraged by this, Gu Dayong stood up and continued to report, such as Songjiang Cloth Hosiery Factory and Jiaxing Oil Mill to jointly set up large factories, unify specifications, set prices together, and sell them at home and abroad; For example, the needs of the handicraft industry in the south of the Yangtze River have purchased a large number of coal mines from the Niutoushan Coal Mine in Hezhou in Nanzhili, the Baiyangkou Coal Mine in Changping Prefecture in Beizhili, and Pingding Prefecture in Taiyuan Prefecture, which has prompted the local mining exhibition. The prosperity of Jiangnan promoted the prosperity of the literary style, and then the papermaking workshop, printing workshop, and lettering workshop were also vigorously exhibited, etc., and the Zhengde Emperor's eyebrows danced.

Yang Ling saw that Zhengde was happy to hear it, and said jokingly: "Your Majesty, this is the benefit of banning mobility and cooperating with each other, being able to promote each other, and expanding into the territory for thousands of miles, which is really not the same as the practice of detaining the people in one place and fixing oneself in one place." You see, the Jiangnan Industrial Exhibition and the Transportation Industry Exhibition, due to the need for a large amount of iron, promoted the operation of the Yangcheng in Shanxi Province and the government-run iron training plant in Zunhua, Hebei, and the annual iron training volume can reach tens of millions of catties, and the imperial court has a lot of income.

In addition, the Fujian Ordnance Bureau built a large number of warships and artillery, and the people of Pucheng, Fujian saw that it was profitable, and there were also rich gentry who opened mines and smelted iron, and the iron they produced was of excellent quality and was especially better than the official camp, which was called "Jiantie", and was used to manufacture the Franc machine gun, the general cannon and the forged barrel of the gun, and it could not burst when it was cast. This has enriched the people and strengthened the court.

There are more such things, why can't the emperor's ambition of building immortal deeds and establishing a prestige for the ages? ”

Emperor Zhengde got up in his chair and walked forward a few steps, seeing that his face was red and his expression was excited, obviously he was agitated in his heart, he stood with his fists held high for a moment, suddenly turned around, and said to Yang Ling: "Aiqing!" I can have a world today, Aiqing has worked hard, I want to reward you with something, as long as you can say it, I can do it. Say, "What do you want?" ”
