Chapter 266: Purpose
Jinmen's small calculations did not succeed after all!
With Jia Cong in charge, not to mention the rain, even the weather covered by dark clouds will not appear, not to mention that all the grain from the sea has been transferred to the Xue family's warehouse.
The people from the capital came quickly, and in the early morning of the third day after the Zhen family's fleet arrived in Jinmen, they arrived in Jinmen to take over the follow-up processing of the shipping grain.
"Master Jia, my prince invites you to the capital for a while!"
Seeing that the matter of the grain had been handed over properly, Jia Cong, who had been hiding in the cabin and did not come out, suddenly came an uninvited guest.
"Your prince is ......"
"Prince Zhongshun!"
Tut!
That's too much to breathe, isn't it?
Jia Cong just pondered for a moment, then nodded and responded: "Okay, I'll go with you to the outskirts of the capital!" ”
Well?
The person who came was confused, looked up at Jia Cong, and didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in his gourd?
"Make it clear to your prince, I'm not interested in participating in the affairs of the capital!"
Jia Cong didn't have the slightest abnormality, and said leisurely: "He should know what's going on!" ”
The people who came did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent fast horses to deliver the message, and a day later they got an accurate reply from Prince Zhongshun: meet at Jia Cong's imperial village!
This guy, do you understand......
Jia Cong didn't hesitate, took Xue Pan and the two little marquis of the Shi family, as well as the fifty Xue family guards, and rushed to the Huangzhuang outside the city at a fast speed.
"Why did the boss come back suddenly, and he didn't say a word in advance!"
When Huan San heard the news and hurried to greet him, he smiled angrily: "Isn't it, you want to have a surprise inspection?" ”
"Assault your head!"
Even if you have such thoughts, you don't need to say it directly.
Jia Cong said angrily: "I'm here, I'm making an appointment to meet here, and of course, by the way, I also want to take a look at the situation in Huangzhuang!" ”
Before Prince Zhongshun arrived, Jia Cong took his younger brother to walk around the imperial village with an area of 1,000 acres.
At this time, Huangzhuang has completely changed from when he first took over.
Perfect water conservancy and irrigation facilities, as well as spacious and solid road transportation, as well as water conservancy mills and other facilities built along the river, have basically formed a relatively complete primary industrial chain.
"When the boss planned it at the beginning, we didn't understand, what were we doing with so many water conservancy appliances?"
Huan San accompanied, his eyebrows flew and he smiled: "Now the whole Zhuangzi has benefited a lot, and those two water conservancy mills alone have saved us a lot of trouble, and we can also get some benefits!" ”
"How can there be any gains?"
Xue Pan said curiously: "Isn't it the supporting workshop that the boss said, specially for Huangzhuang's own use!" ”
"It's not that the surrounding Zhuangzi saw that it was cheap, Baba came over and wanted to use a water conservancy mill, so naturally he had to give money!"
Huan San said with a smile: "You must know that the price of simple wheat and flour that has been ground are two different things!" ”
Without waiting for Xue Pan to continue asking, he smiled and said: "There are also oil extraction and the like, with a water conservancy mill, it is similar and convenient!" ”
Jia Congle listened to his little brother's chatter, but his heart was indescribably happy.
At the moment, he has no way to make high-yield grain seeds, but he can improve production efficiency through ordinary tricks.
That is to say, Huangzhuang revolves around the production of fields, and he only uses a few rivers that run through him to make some water conservancy equipment, which helps the farmland in Huangzhuang to add a lot of added value.
As Huan San said, can the price of wheat that is only preliminarily dried compare to the price of flour that has already been ground?
It is just a simple primary processing of grain, but the benefits and benefits that can be obtained are not the same.
When these water conservancy appliances were first built, it only took a little more thought and money, but now they are constantly creating wealth.
Not only did the Zhuangzi benefit, but also the tenants in the Zhuangzi benefited a lot.
With the improvement of farmland water conservancy facilities, Huangzhuang has basically solved the problem of relying on the sky for food, and the aquatic products in the canal are enough for the tenants on the village to enjoy a little meat and oil every few days.
Of course he could do better, but he didn't have to do it right now.
Next, he will also build a private school in Huangzhuang, according to his own ideas, little by little to cultivate confidants.
Here, in the future, it will be his talent cultivation base, and of course, it will also be the last hand.
After all, it is a Huangzhuang registered in the Zongren Mansion, no matter who is angry, there is no way to rob it, and with such a base, you can completely gain a firm foothold in the capital.
Wandering around the village a few times, ignoring the surprise and smugness of the younger brothers, he was mainly concerned about the implementation of the rules and regulations of the Huangzhuang Management Office.
As long as these tried-and-tested rules and regulations can be implemented in place, Zhuangzi will be able to continue to operate smoothly unless it encounters irresistible natural and man-made disasters.
During the meal, Liu Xianglian, who heard the news, hurriedly came on a horse.
After the meeting, it was naturally lively again......
As mentioned earlier, Liu Xianglian has been promoted to the six-rank commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division because of her merits.
As Jia Cong said at the beginning, with this guy's martial arts and experience in the rivers and lakes, if you want to stand out in a counterpart yamen like the Five Cities Terracotta Division, as long as you can ensure that the credit is not robbed, it is easy to become famous.
Sure enough, it has only been less than three years, and Liu Xianglian has become one of the bigwigs of the Five Cities Terracotta Division.
According to him, it is difficult for those little thieves and lawbreakers in the city to hide from his eyes, and the security situation in the area he is responsible for is the best in the entire capital.
Of course, after becoming famous, it is not without trouble.
First of all, the people of the Liu family of Liguo Gonggong found him very arrogantly, saying that they could accept him into the periphery of the family, but they had to listen to the greeting of the master's family.
The first thing is to arrange for a full five children of the Liu family branch to enter the command department of Liu Xianglian's department, and they all have to be the kind with grade authority.
Speaking of this, Liu Xianglian's heroic face was full of disdain, and she sneered: "I gave it back at that time, and it can be regarded as a complete falling out with Princess Liguo!" ”
In addition to taking a stand, saying this naturally also means to show merit......
Jia Cong originally arranged for Liu Xianglian to enter the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, but it cost some favors, in order to wait for Liu Xianglian to develop and go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.
No one is a fool, the Liguo Mansion saw the opportunity, Jia Cong had already made a plan, with the help of the platform of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, so that the promising little brother could smoothly advance to officialdom, which was his main purpose.
Of course, if Liu Xianglian behaves well, it will not be difficult to help him go further, and there are still some cards in the Rong Mansion at this time.
"Haha, brother-in-law should be so tough!"
Jia Cong raised his glass and said with a smile: "According to the current development momentum, my brother-in-law will have a better future in the future, there is no need to ruin the current good future because of the discordant relationship between the main family!" ”
Liu Xianglian is still a good person, she has a chivalrous spirit, at least she hasn't spent it in officialdom yet.
Not only that, a few days before the Spring Festival, a big fat boy was born, and some of Liu Xianglian's successors were overjoyed, so naturally they would not have a stiff relationship with Jia Cong and his party at this time, because the relationship between the main family has always been unharmonious.
To put it mildly, that is, Jia Cong's side is seriously lacking in manpower, as long as he has some ability and is more reliable, it is not polite to spend a little energy and cost to send him to officialdom.
What about the Prince's Mansion......
From Liu Xianglian's down-and-out appearance in the past, it can be known that she didn't take this strong martial arts person in her eyes at all.
If Liu Xianglian's mind is confused, she doesn't have to expect Jia Cong's side to use resources to help in the future, and the Liguo Mansion will not pay too much attention to it, and it is estimated that it will be like this for the rest of her life.
Obviously, Liu Xianglian's mind is still very sober and knows who is the real 'own person'.
Compared with the so-called scholarly family, the clan concept of the Xungui family is just like that.
After listening to Liu Xianglian's account of the situation in the capital, Jia Cong also briefly described the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, and finally said with a smile: "Our current situation is good, we have to seize the opportunity to perform well and strive to go further!" ”
Liu Xianglian was a little puzzled, Jia Cong's brother-in-law obviously had something to say, but this guy didn't mean to say it explicitly, and it was not good to break the casserole and ask the end.
After a good meal, and sent Liu Xianglian, who still had official business on her body, away, Jia Cong smiled at Huansan and said: "I don't want to Yingchun Sister Yingchun's luck is good, she has only been married for a few years and has mixed up a six-grade fate!" ”
"Yes, my sister is also envious!"
Huansan laughed and said leisurely: "She is very focused on the one who is married, and I can't wait for that kid to be admitted to the Jinshi early!" ”
Jia Cong smiled silently, if he was still in the capital, the kid who married Tanchun might be admitted to the Jinshi within five years.
Now, it can only depend on his level of consciousness and his talent for reading......
It didn't take long for him to receive a report from Zhuang Ding that a guest was visiting!
Hehe, Prince Zhongshun is finally here......
He didn't go to the door of Zhuangzi to greet him in person, but just asked Huansan to take a trip, so as not to make too much noise and save Prince Zhongshun trouble.
It's not a good thing to contact foreign officials and children with noble backgrounds in private, and spread the word, maybe Prince Zhongshun is really going to be imprisoned.
Obviously, Prince Zhongshun didn't care about the etiquette, and he was not polite after meeting, and asked straight to the point: "You kid is so positive, what is the purpose?" ”
"I want to go to the palace secret library to have a look through the relationship of the prince, and it is best to find a few books on the cultivation of spells!"
Jia Cong didn't go around in circles, and said with a smile: "Can the prince do it?" ”
This......
Prince Zhongshun hesitated for a while, not because he couldn't do it, but because he felt that Jia Cong's request was too simple.
In his eyes, the suggestions and chips given by Jia Cong were quite amazing, compared to the piles of old papers hidden in the palace, they were cheap enough to make him a little suspicious.
Gee......
Seeing Prince Zhongshun like this, Jia Cong couldn't help but pout secretly......
