I Will Be King in Troubled Times Chapter 144 Signs of an Adult Man
The two of them who have the joy of fish and water, their movements, demeanor, words and expressions have changed significantly.
Maybe the person concerned is not yet conscious, but the bystanders are clear.
After sprinkling dog food for two days, Wang Xuan went to see the foundation of the factory repaired.
"Do you want to go with me?" asked Wang Xuan.
"I'm not going, I'm going to finish the handkerchief this day. ”
On weekdays, Qing'er rarely becomes a female celebrity, and this sudden change made Wang Xuan a little in a trance, as if he had returned to his original green years.
Out of the door, Yang Tao, Zhou Xiao and Song Yi were all waiting outside the door, and when they saw Wang Xuan come out to salute, they headed southwest.
"How difficult is it to level the rocks?"
On the way, Wang Xuan asked about the site, which is a prerequisite for building a factory.
"There is something special about the cliff side, near the west side of the sea is mostly soft sand and gravel, and near the east side is a huge rock block that gradually rises in height. The current solution is to blow up the rocks at the top and use them to fill the sand and gravel at the bottom. ”
Zhou Xiao explained the current situation, and they were doing research there for the past two days.
"It will take a few days for the explosives to arrive, so let's get the gravel from the canyon and use it first. The Ministry of Construction has issued drawings for the specific construction plan, and in order to adapt to local conditions, we will make appropriate modifications after on-site inspection, and then evaluate the materials and costs. ”
"Yes. ”
Half an hour later, the crowd came to the cliff.
Most of the construction here are women and children, young and young.
"The young men and women are carrying stones in the valley, and the women and children cannot do it. ”
After listening to Song Yi's explanation, Wang Xuan was relieved.
"Who is in charge of security?" Wang Xuan asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, it is the minister who is in charge. ”
"You, too, the mayor of a town is concerned about safety, reasonableness and legality. I would like to mention that not only construction safety must be guaranteed, but also health and safety must be guaranteed. ”
"Yes, I don't dare to forget. ”
Whether it is an official sent by the Government Council or a staff member elected by the Song clan, everyone is very touched by Wang Xuan's statement.
Again, the master who always puts the well-being of his subjects in mind will not be much worse.
Wang Xuan took a look at the roughly marked construction site, about the size of a football field, it is enough to deal with a hundred acres of stevia, after all, this industry is to be laid out on the island and carried forward.
"The cliff should be cut off to prevent the cliff from falling. In the west of the factory, rainwater drainage measures should be taken to avoid heavy water rushing into the factory in the rainy season, destroying the equipment and polluting the finished product. In addition, to build a reservoir nearby, the factory uses a lot of water, and although there is no shortage of water here in Xinsong, it is difficult to store water. ”
Wang Xuan circled around and pointed out the precautions one by one, how many counts, and it is always good to take fewer detours.
In addition, the auspicious salary standard has already been formulated, and the new Song cannot be special. ”
Zhou Xiao said: "Your Majesty is relieved, we have calculated the profits and costs of the factory several times in the past few days, and initially set the minimum monthly salary at five gold coins, which is slightly higher than that of Jixiang City. ”
Five gold coins, a little more.
The New Song Dynasty was isolated from the world in the past, and there was no place for money, so it was only after re-communicating with the outside world in the past two years that it paid attention to money again.
Now is no longer the era of barter, that kind of day has long been swept into the garbage heap of history with the arrival of Wang Xuan.
But the starting point is a monthly salary of five gold coins, and for the new Song Dynasty, it is not easy for the poor to suddenly get a huge amount of money, which is probably not a good thing.
However, Wang Xuan did not express his opinion, since the new Song Dynasty thought that five gold coins were appropriate, then five gold coins would be fine.
He was reluctant to interfere in local governance, lest it be self-defeating and make it impossible for the localities to let go of their hands.
Moreover, you should bear your own responsibilities.
Without going through something, these mid-level officials are embarrassed by their responsibilities.
"This is your power, and I and the Government Council will not interfere. However, every decision we make must be investigated in advance, repeatedly demonstrated, and carefully considered before we can make a decision. ”
The auspicious officialdom atmosphere is acceptable, although it has recently been infected with some crooked winds of Great Xia, but it is all a small road, and everyone knows that it will not be on the stage.
The so-called upward and downward effect, one of the most important rules of officialdom, if a fool can't enter this door.
"After a while, technicians from the research institute will come to train you, and the selection of workers must be done well. The layout of the resort is good, and the design and construction must be strictly in accordance with the drawings. ”
The group walked around and chatted, and half a day passed.
Wang Xuan took this opportunity to re-evaluate the leadership team of the New Song Dynasty and re-plan the future of the New Song Dynasty in his heart.
On the fifth day, Wang Xuan bid farewell to the reluctant ancestor of the Song family and began to return.
"Hey, I can't drink happily tonight, happy times are always so short, sigh, sigh. ”
The old man sighed and withdrew his gaze, tightening the placket of his clothes, where there was half a bottle of 'Drunk Auspicious', a special liquor for auspiciousness, that he had stolen.
The old man's 'performance' successfully concealed the maids around him, and soon entered the stilt building.
When Wang Xuan arrived at Jixiang City, Zhao Shengrui's envoy greeted him with a cheeky face.
Guessed right, it's still that Zhuang Bi.
It's strange to say, no one in Jixiang doesn't hate him, and Zhao Shengrui also knows this, but he still lets him go on an envoy as always, which is incomprehensible.
Wang Xuan even had a bad taste that this was his cheap brother-in-law deliberately disgusting him.
"Foreign Minister Zhuang ......"
"Okay Zhuangbi, let's talk about things. ”
Half a sentence choked in his stomach, Zhuang Bi was so red that his face was red, but he couldn't have a seizure.
"The foreign minister is here for the artillery. ”
Wang Xuan knew about this, but he didn't know if those old army guns had been refurbished, so he had to postpone this topic, saying that it was getting late and he would talk about it tomorrow.
"How is the refurbishment of more than 100 artillery pieces completed?"
Qin Chao of the Logistics Department said: "A total of more than 120 guns have been renovated, which is all the inventory, and now the artillery deployed on the lake embankment is 4 inches and 25 times the caliber artillery." ”
Great Xia wants to buy a hundred doors, and now there are twenty more doors, Zhao Shengrui must hope that more than the better, but Wang Xuan does not plan to sell him.
"For the remaining twenty doors, you can talk to the representatives of Xishan and see how much they can eat. ”
Selling to Xishan is much better than selling to Wangdu.
The Qin Dynasty received the order, and he also thought that it was more appropriate to sell Xishan, so he began to prepare for the pre-negotiation matters.
When the representative heard that there was artillery to buy, he was naturally overjoyed and sent the information back overnight.
The price is naturally not cheap, this is a big killer weapon that has been tested in actual combat, and now which leader in Great Xia is staring at these cannons without eyes? If it weren't for the pressure of the royal capital, they would have come to bid a lot.
Xishan is located in the southwest border of Great Xia, adjacent to the auspicious kingdom, and the friendship with auspiciousness is caused by current events, and no one can say the reason to oppose the purchase of auspicious artillery.
After dealing with these trivial matters, Wang Xuan had a headache again, how should he live tonight.
Just when he was struggling with how to explain this to Hua'er, Qing'er swaggered into Villa No. 1, and Wang Bi personally helped move. This battle directly held back Wang Xuan's question mark.
Rarely, Wang Bi stayed for dinner, and went out for a walk with the flowers by the way.
When she came back, Hua'er was no longer the bitter and hateful look, on the contrary, she was happy, and jumped to find Qing'er and asked her to give birth to a nephew or niece for her to play with......
Wang Xuan left the scene with a black line on his face, and if he listened to it again, he would probably suffocate internal injuries.
Maybe it's the credit of the eldest sister Wang Bi, or maybe it's Qing'er's own ability, and in a few days, everyone recognized her (temporary) identity as the hostess.
This is a psychological identity, limited to the scope of Xiangyuan, and the outside world still does not know that the two of them are already husband and wife.
Wang Xuan is a real person, although Qing'er didn't mention it, he couldn't pretend not to know.
At the beginning of March, a blockbuster news swept the streets and alleys and fields of the auspicious kingdom.
Their beloved majesty the king is going to marry a concubine!
According to ancient customs, there are six official women of the king of a country, one wife, two concubines and three wives.
Monogamy refers to the main wife, that is, the queen.
After the throne of the palace, the same body of the king.
The second concubine refers to the two concubines, each of whom is responsible for the king's share of affairs, but is not involved in politics.
The three women refer to the female officials who are in charge of trivial chores, and their status is higher than that of concubines and lower than that of concubines.
This is a woman with a reputation as the king of a country, and the rest is completely up to personal preference.
For example, the second prince of Daxia only has one wife (main concubine) and one concubine (side concubine).
Another example is the aristocratic and wealthy businessmen of Great Xia, women can't fit together on a football team.
Wang Xuan's title to Qing'er is concubine.
The position of the queen of the main wife can only be reserved for future destined people, and it is basically insulated from Qing'er.
Wang Xuanxu is twenty-one years old, and the flowers are also eight years old, counting the days, he has been here for almost six years, looking back, only to see the vicissitudes of the world.
"Fortunately, fortunately, our king is going to have a queen!"
Some old pedants, who were sympathetic, began to weep bitterly.
It's not a show, it's a real emotional outpouring.
Since Wang Xuan's accession to the throne, the auspicious changes have changed with each passing day.
Not only is there a good way to govern the country, but also a heart that loves the people, how can the people not love it?
Now that he is about to marry a wife and have children, the Wang bloodline has been continued, which means that today's auspicious political system has been continued, how can the people not be excited?
Just like looking for a partner, the woman is not only emotionally intelligent, gentle and virtuous, but also fair-skinned and beautiful with long legs, who can resist the temptation?
Therefore, when the "Auspicious Times" published this news, the mascot was not calm.
"I was looking forward to this day, I was thinking, after the eldest princess got married, Princess Yue got married, and it should be Your Majesty's turn this round. ”
"You don't have an afterthought, what kind of strength do you still think about in the chess basket. ”
"That is, if you want me to say, Your Majesty and Miss Qing'er are childhood sweethearts, and now being together can be regarded as a long-awaited return. ”
"Affectionate and righteous, affectionate and righteous~"
"Only if you marry a wife and have children can you be a real man!"
......
Everywhere is discussing Wang Xuan's marriage to a concubine, which has become a new fashion for auspiciousness.
"Now, the mascot can talk about the king's marriage?"
Some new faces came to Jixiang, listening to everyone talk about the life events of the king of a country without scruples, not only no one stopped them, but on the contrary, they joined in the debate and couldn't help but be curious, so they asked the store.
"We don't have so many rules for auspiciousness, and the affairs of His Majesty's family are also state affairs, and everyone talking about these is also a way to show respect, and there are no disrespectful words, and you will understand after a while. ”
The merchant did not give up, and asked several people in succession, but they all received similar answers, so he could only force himself to accept this statement.
For several days in a row, he heard the people talking about the monarch's matters gradually multiplying, and he also had a more comprehensive understanding of Wang Xuan, a young man he had never met.
"This is word of mouth, it has a good reputation!"
These days, the business of beauty shops in Nancheng is particularly good.
Accompanied by Wang Bi and Dahu Xiaohu, Qing'er came here every day to do styling, trying to find the most suitable one for herself.
Although she is not the most beautiful woman in the world, she wants to be the most beautiful herself on that day!
