Geng Jingzhong wanted to recapture Quanzhou by force, but Ming Zheng naturally would not agree, so after using spies to spy on Geng Fan's movements, Zhu Jin sent Liu Guoxuan, the general soldier of the right military guard, to lead more than 10,000 troops under Hui'an City to resist the 20,000 cavalry sent by Geng Jingzhong.

Geng Jingzhong's general Wang Jin, who was in charge of the southern invasion, was nicknamed "Tiger", and when he saw that Zheng Jun's soldiers were few, he had a contempt for them, and wanted to go straight into the army, wanting to defeat Zheng's army in one fell swoop, and then recapture Quanzhou. However, Liu Guoxuan treated him sternly and did not give Wang Jin a chance to find a gap and advance, and the two sides faced each other for more than ten days, and Wang Jin had to retreat to Tuling because of the relationship between the military and food supply lines.

Wang Jin stationed troops in Tuling, and the continuous battalion was set up for more than 20 miles, and Liu Guoxuan led his own soldiers to observe closely, but was discovered by Wang Jin and took the initiative to attack, intending to kill the enemy general first. However, Wang Jin did not realize that Geng's army was actually a paper tiger in the middle of the strong outside, and was blocked by Liu Guoxuan's troops who were rapidly reinforced, and the two sides fought for a day, but Geng's army was repelled by the Zheng army, which had strict military discipline and high combat effectiveness, and suffered very heavy losses.

However, 1,000 enemies were killed and 800 were injured, and the Zheng army's strength was originally Geng Domain's less, so the Zheng army, which Tu Ling won, did not take advantage of the situation to march to the front line of Putian and Fuzhou, but only retreated back to Quanzhou after pursuing Xinghua.

Geng Jingzhong, who was unwilling to fail, saw this situation, and suddenly had the idea of fighting again, of course, he was frightened by Liu Guoxuan, and he did not dare to shake the main force of the Zheng army with a large army, so he ordered Liu Yan and other troops in western Fujian to carry out a counteroffensive against the newly occupied areas where the Zheng army had not gained a stable foothold, so the two armies frequently fought each other in Zhangpu, Nanjing and other places

"Qin She, Qin She," Zheng Kezhang was reading with Lu Fuzi, and Zheng Cong, who was shaking his head, broke in despite the waiter's obstruction. "Why are you still studying, the second uncle has already done what he said that day, hurry up and don't rush late, when will I go over and see."

"Marquis Funing, silence!" Lu Fuzi glanced at Zheng Cong, who was full of meat, unhappily, picked up the ring ruler on the side and knocked on the table. "If there is anything more important than Yuanzi's study, Duqing will talk about it later," Zheng Cong still wanted to open his mouth, but Lu Fuzi snapped. "Could it be that Marquis Funing wants the old man to report to the king?"

Seeing that Lu Fuzi was angry, Zheng Kezhang had to speak: "Second uncle, let's go out first, there is still a quarter and a half of the situation, and the rest of today's homework will be finished, no matter how important it is, it will not be too late to say it at that time." ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Kezhang also gave Zheng Cong a chance to refute, and instructed the waiter who came after Zheng Cong: "Invite the Marquis of Funing to the side to wait, and then prepare some wine, vegetables and fruits." ”

Seeing the old one's strong order, and the little one looked straight at him, Zheng Cong, who knew that he had done a bad job, was a little stupid, and had to retreat with the waiter, but looking at his appearance, he couldn't help but secretly scolded.

When Zheng Cong disappeared in the house, Lu Fuzi quietly picked up the book again, and when he saw the old man's style, Zheng Kezhang had no choice but to pretend that nothing had happened, and the two sides continued to read until they finished teaching the intended content.

After class, Old Master Lu did not get up as usual, but said to Zheng Kezang: "Yuanzi wants to set up a boys' camp, the old man doesn't say much, after all, the world is in chaos now, and it is easy to practice some military affairs with the state, but Yuanzi and Funing Hou and other people who do not learn and have no skills, the old man is very worried, Yuanzi can do it himself." ”

"Please rest assured," Tiandijun Teacher, the teacher was so concerned, Zheng Kezhang didn't dare to be careless, stood up and responded respectfully. "Fu Ninghou is indeed looking for something serious this time, as for the rest, the students have their own measure, and they will never learn from them."

"That's very good." Lu Fuzi bowed slightly, stood up and walked away under Zheng Kezang's gaze.

Zheng Kezang, who breathed a sigh of relief, came out of the study, turned around and came to the side room where Zheng Cong was eating, and when he saw Zheng Kezhang coming in, Zheng Cong, who had long been impatient, dropped the wine cup, and hurriedly said: "Qinshe, the sugar liao has been handed, and the craftsman has been recruited, it took a lot of effort, if you can't make the snow sugar and rock sugar you said, how to compensate." ”

Zheng Kezhang shook his head, this Zheng Cong is really in the eye of money, last time he made it clear, even if it is not just to make sugar, it is a lot of income, and today I want to come out like this, it is just to let Zheng Kezhang give up some more benefits.

Zheng Kezhang didn't say anything to him, and threw a paper bag in his hand over, Zheng Cong was stunned: "What is this?" ”

"Second Uncle will just know if you open it and take a look."

Zheng Cong picked up the paper bag on the table suspiciously, opened it slowly, and when he saw the contents inside, he couldn't help but scream softly: "Snow Candy, it's really made, it's really much whiter than the current Snow Candy on the market, Qin She, how did you do it." ”

"This is what Yu has tested according to the method in the book in the past few days," Zheng Cong naturally will not reveal his hole cards to Zheng Cong now. "Second Uncle can taste it and see if it is sweeter than the snow sugar and brown sugar on the market now."

When Zheng Cong heard this, he ordered a few pieces of sugar into his mouth, but the sweetness did not change much, but he had just been hinted at, and the result naturally affected his judgment: "That's right, it's really sweeter, Qin She, it's a fortune now." ”

Seeing that Zheng Cong was calculating how much the new snow candy could sell for and how much income he could make in a sugar season, Zheng Kezhang smiled faintly: "Second uncle, don't talk so much about it, hurry up and take a look at your newly bought sugar house."

Zheng Cong's newly bought sugar liao is in Tianxing Prefecture, and if he travels by land, he is afraid that he will not be able to reach it in a day, so he can only take a boat to cross the Taijiang Inland Sea. Although the inland sea is far calmer than the strait, the boat that has been sitting down for more than an hour has already made Zheng Cong, who had dried himself out of the flowers, dizzy, his eyes straight, and his chest nauseated.

Finally got off the boat, Zheng Cong, who was fluttering on his feet, sat on the ground, and the servants hurriedly went to find the ox cart, waited for the ox cart, and after a bumpy half an hour, they finally saw the target.

"That's it, the eldest prince." The panting Zheng Cong was helped to the side by the servants to rest, and after the introduction of the Hou Mansion steward, Zheng Kezhang nodded and followed in, the whole sugar house seems to occupy a lot of land, but the main building is only two thatched houses, built of bamboo and wood, ventilated on all sides, one of which has a crushing roller, and the other has some pots and pans and the like, about one is a pressing room, and one is a boiling room. "Prince, please see, this is the best and latest stone press reel, which can produce two percent more sugar juice than the previous wood press reel."

"Are there any iron reels?" Zheng Kezhang interrupted the steward's self-boasting and asked directly: "In addition, what is the driving force for squeezing?" Manpower? Animal power? ”

"Iron reels?" The steward exclaimed. "How much fine iron does the eldest prince need, how can there be such luxury." Zheng Kezang frowned, and the steward of the Hou Mansion also knew that he had lost his temper, so he hurriedly corrected his attitude. "Needless to say, we don't have it, the whole of Taiwan doesn't have it, is the eldest prince wrong?"

"Well, maybe Yu was mistaken." Zheng Kezhang didn't care about the steward who said the wrong thing, just commanded. "You haven't said what drives the reel."

"The squeezing wheel is driven by animal power, and there are a few healthy cows in the sugar house for this purpose," can be in charge of affairs in the Hou Mansion, and the other party is also a good person, so when he found that Zheng Kezang's attitude was faintly different, he didn't dare to deviate from the topic. "It's just that today I know that the Hou Ye and the eldest prince are coming, and the cattle have been driven out to graze."

"Animal power?" Zheng Kezhang thought for a while, he originally wanted to use hydraulic machinery to ensure stable power, but he had no practical ability to search for the knowledge he had searched, and if he wanted to practice, it was impossible to succeed at one time, Zheng Cong's side would never sit back and watch himself waste money like this. "How much sugar can I get out that season?"

"This is the best sugar house in the Ministry of Industry, as long as it can guarantee sugarcane, it can produce 5,000 quintals of snow sugar and no less than 10,000 quintals of brown sugar and brown sugar in one season." With the current level of processing, brown sugar cannot be fully converted into white sugar, which cannot be changed even by Zheng Kezang, who has knowledge beyond the times. "When I took it down, Master Hou put a lot of thought into it."

Zheng Kezhang waved his hand, he didn't dare to be interested in how Prince Dang stole state-owned assets: "A few points, first, these two dilapidated houses will be demolished and rebuilt, and they will be replaced with brick houses, and the stove and chimney will be repaired outside, why don't you understand?" In this way, Yu will send someone to send you a pattern later, and you can follow the map. ”

"Reconstruction? How much does it cost. "Zheng Cong didn't know when he appeared behind Zheng Kezang, and when he heard that he was going to pay money to rebuild the workshop, his face hurt." Chin She, what are you doing with such unjust money? ”

"Second uncle, if you want to produce good snow sugar, the key is to use sweet water and refreshing surroundings, this smoke will also destroy the quality." Zheng Kezhang bullied Zheng Cong and didn't understand, and explained randomly. "Second uncle, I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf, as long as I can produce good snow sugar, this amount of money is a small amount."

"Say whatever you want, the second uncle is on your thief ship." Zheng Cong cried with a sad face, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally accepted Zheng Kezang's statement. "Also, there is a first, there must be a second, all say it, the second uncle is out today."

"Second, I still have to order a batch of utensils, and I will list them when I go back, please order them here from the second uncle." Sugar production needs to control the precipitation temperature, but now there is no way to achieve temperature control, rather than looking forward to the master's control of the heat, it is better to use more convenient tools to achieve this goal, so a batch of suitable utensils must be manufactured. "Third, we will build another tofu workshop on the side, and the tofu made can be sent to the eastern capital to be sold, and it can also be added to the artisans, but the soy milk should be left behind, and it will be of great use in the production of rock sugar." Zheng Cong looked at the steward on the side, and the steward nodded to indicate that he had written it down. "Fourth, prepare another 1,000 catties of charcoal, grind it into fine powder, put it into a gauze bag for later use, and the river water and well water must be filtered through the toner bag before it can be used. Fifth, Yu will copy down the entire sugar production charter, and the second uncle asked these sugar workers to follow the charter, and there is no change in the slightest, otherwise the quality will be broken. In the end, how should the benefits of this sugar house be divided? ”

"Interests? Divide into? Zheng Cong shouted. Qin She, this is all your second uncle paying for it, and you still have to share it, it's too calculated, right? Zheng Kezhang turned around and left without responding, and Zheng Cong jumped to his feet. Okay, okay, it's a three-year-old child who overwhelms the old lady, one percent, and one percent will be given to you. ”

"Thirty percent." Zheng Kezhang gestured a finger. "At least thirty percent, if not, the rest will go to the third uncle and the fifth uncle."

"What," Zheng Cong immediately jumped up. "Qinshe, what do you mean by this, cross the river and tear down the bridge," Zheng Cong was anxious to speak, he hadn't crossed the river yet, where did he come from to demolish the bridge, but Zheng Kezhang was unmoved, and the puffing Zheng Cong held back for a long time and raised two fingers. "Twenty percent, at most two percent, if there are more, let's break up."

Zheng Kezang frowned and thought about it, this is indeed the bottom line of the other party, so he nodded: "Two achievements are two, but it must be based on words, and the rest has to send someone to supervise." ”

"Qinshe, eldest nephew, you are too shrewd." Zheng Cong didn't hesitate for a moment this time. "Okay, let's do it."

"Second uncle, I won't take advantage of you for this cheapness, I'll give you an idea." Zheng Kezhang looked at Zheng Cong for a long time. "First, the second uncle can collect some brown sugar from the Ministry of Industry to process it," Zheng Cong's eyes suddenly lit up. "Second, in fact, sugarcane bagasse and water sugar can make wine, Dongning now strictly prohibits grain winemaking, if it is done, this is also a great source of profit, and the Yiren waterman likes this sugarcane wine the most."

"Bagasse and sugar make wine?"

"How dare Yu talk in front of the second uncle, it's just that Yu Ke no longer turns the book for the art of winemaking, this craftsman or something, you have to find it yourself, by the way, after it is done, the second uncle will reward his nephew with a profit."

"Qin She, you are really the second uncle's lucky star, no, no, you are the God of Wealth." Zheng Cong had already thrown the idea of strangling Zheng Kezhang to Java just now. "Second uncle, I listen to you, but is Yichengli too much, you see, you are just empty and white-toothed, otherwise, how about Bancheng?"

"Done, then it's decided"
