Chapter 842: Harvest with a sickle
figured out that Du Jinning really wanted to give himself the money-making Jingdezhen kiln, Zhao Yu still couldn't believe it.
In this world, does anyone really think that they have a lot of money?
"Why, exactly? You're going to give me the kiln? Zhao Yu didn't want to guess Du Jinning's thoughts, so he asked directly.
If Du Jinning doesn't say it now, she will use this matter to compensate him in the future, and he won't be so easy to speak.
As an emperor who relied on seizing the throne, he hated it most when someone played tricks on him.
Although Du Jinning also has means in private, she prefers to be a frank and unrestrained person and do things beautifully.
She said calmly: "Brother Huang, you also know the affairs of my family. My three older sisters are married, and life is not bad; My mother was born in a peasant family, and she was used to being frugal all her life, and the money I left her was enough for her to live the rest of her life with plenty of food and clothing. ”
"As for myself, I have the food and princess's mansion you gave me, a few tea gardens, a few bookstores and flower shops, and a hundred percent of the kiln shares, and I am not a person who lives a luxurious life and covets enjoyment, so this money is enough for me to spend. Even if I have children in the future, I will do my duty as long as I raise them. As for what kind of life they want to live, they will naturally earn it themselves, are they still waiting for me to leave them a fortune? ”
She smiled: "What's more, he still has money and property." Isn't it his responsibility to raise his wife and children? I don't have to worry about not being able to eat. ”
Zhao Yu couldn't laugh or cry when he said this.
As the only eldest princess of the Great Song Dynasty, can he, as the royal brother, still make his righteous sister unable to eat? Do you want to talk about it so tragically?
However, what Du Jinning wanted to express, he understood.
Sure enough, Du Jinning continued: "For money, I am content with long-term happiness, and I don't want to put myself in danger because of this." If it weren't for the fact that I wanted the Great Song Dynasty to make more money from foreigners and make the Great Song Dynasty more prosperous, I wouldn't have bothered to ask people to fire any blue and white porcelain and pastel porcelain. Wealth is very moving, and if I keep the mouth of the kiln in my hand, there will definitely be people who will stumble on me and kill me. I'm not cowardly, I don't think it's necessary. ”
She looked at Zhao Yu: "So the younger sister wants to give these kilns to the imperial brother." But the hard work of letting people experiment for a year or two also cost me a lot of money, I don't want to make money, I can't let me lose money, right? That's why I asked the royal brother for a hundred percent of the shares. ”
This honest and unceremonious remark made Zhao Yu laugh.
After laughing, what came up was full of emotion.
Like the Gu King who was raised, he fought all the way to the present, and his surroundings were full of calculations all the time. Therefore, a loyal minister like Qi Bokun, who is dedicated to the country and his goodness, will make him feel precious.
And now, among the few courtiers, there is another Du Jinning. Although Du Jinning is a woman, Zhao Yu has always regarded her as his humerus's minister. It used to be because of her ability, but now she has added a piece of her pure heart.
Although Du Jinning has a little bit of his own careful thinking about the kiln, this careful thinking is said frankly, the more Du Jinning's sincerity and fairness are revealed, and it is more real and credible.
The words of those who are full of righteousness and morality are false. How can people not have the slightest selfishness?
"Okay, I accepted the birthday gift you sent." He said.
Du Jinning was delighted: "Thank you, Brother Huang." ”
Zhao met that her expression was sincere, and she didn't fake it at all, and she was very happy in her heart, and made up her mind to write down this love, and when Du Jinning encountered something in the future, he would make compensation.
The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear.
Wu Zheng watched from the side, admiring Du Jinning more and more.
He admired Du Jinning for not being greedy for money, and even more admired her broad-mindedness and the world.
Ordinary people, even if they know that giving the kiln to Zhao Yu not only avoided disaster, but also won the emperor's favor, they may not be able to make this determination. Du Jinning is a young girl, but she is much stronger than many men.
On the way back to the capital from Zhuangzi, he couldn't help but repeat the old words with Zhao Yu: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Ning Guo, she is really dedicated to the good of the Great Song Dynasty." Only such a person can wholeheartedly think about the people and the people. Now that the rice is about to be harvested, the minister proposed to let the eldest princess be the chief farmer, I don't know what the emperor wants? ”
"In this matter, I have to seek Ning Guo's opinion first. If she doesn't object, I'll announce it to the courtiers when the rice crop is out. Zhao said.
Wu Zheng was immediately overjoyed.
Zhao Yu said that he was announcing it to the courtiers, rather than submitting it to the courtiers for consultation, which shows that he made up his mind not to consider the opinions of the courtiers at all, and to directly announce the result by strong means.
The current emperor is not the emperor of the past.
In the past, what the emperor wanted to do, it had to depend on the face of the family, if the family objected, what he wanted to do might not be approved; But now the family is weak, and the emperor has a word. As long as he has made up his mind, the courtiers cannot oppose his decision at all.
Although Zhao Yu said this, the rice yield has not come out, and it is still too early to mention this matter. Even if he wants to give Du Jinning an official position, Du Jinning has to really show his results. If the yield of rice is not seven stones, even if it can be six and a half stones, it is not easy for him to directly put an official position on Du Jinning's head.
So he had to wait for the rice to come out.
Half a month passed in a flash, and soon it was the day when the rice was opened.
Knowing that the eyes of the entire capital were staring at the 500 acres of rice fields, Du Jinning reported the harvest time two days in advance. Early this morning, Wu Zheng also led several officials from the Ministry of Industry to the scene. In addition to him, there were also people in the palace. But this time it was no longer Gonggong Jin, it was changed to Gonggong Wu.
Gonggong Wu is the first person beside Zhao Yu, because he is loyal and strong in martial arts, he has never left Zhao Yu.
But today, Zhao Yu actually sent him to Zhuangzi, which shocked the officials present.
"Princess." As soon as Gonggong Wu arrived, he didn't care about the officials who came up to greet him, called Du Jinning aside, and explained softly, "The emperor was going to come in person, but he was worried that the yield per mu of rice would not meet expectations, and you would be under too much pressure, so he sent the old slave over." You know the emperor's emphasis on high-yield rice. ”
"Thank you, Brother Huang." Du Jinning arched his hand in the direction of the palace, and smiled at Gonggong Wu, "The imperial brother is all for my good, I understand." ”
Because she has to walk around the ridge today, she is wearing men's clothes today. Even if it is a bow, it does not feel disobedient at all.
Gonggong Wu also knew that Du Jinning was a very clear person. The drum does not need a heavy hammer, Zhao Yu's mind, Du Jinning can understand it at all.
He didn't say much and asked, "When will it start?" ”
