Chapter 146: Opening is a good business
Ru Taisu was eventually sent out of Beijing. The reason for the official face is not to go to Suzhou to patrol the river and the imperial history, so as to flood the Jingtai Lake. Clear-eyed people know that this is to punish him in the court, taking advantage of the absence of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to impeach King Wu, and is suspected of provoking the relationship between the prince and King Wu's brothers.
After all, it is now late autumn, and the floods of Taihu Lake have just calmed down, and the next flood will have to wait until the spring flood in February and March.
What surprised the officials the most was that this resolution was actually drafted and played by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, and His Majesty Zhu Pi personally approved it. It is said that just after the end of the court that day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince galloped into the palace from outside the city, and then drafted a resolution in the cabinet in public. Although many subordinate officials interceded for Ru Taisu, the prince was still unmoved.
This is the first time that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been so decisive, and all the subordinate officials of the East Palace are surprised. His Royal Highness the Prince of Dudao, a courtier, has a very close relationship with King Wu, which is for his younger brother. Then they did not dare to say anything more.
This time the turmoil subsided.
Zhu Su returned to Bifeng Huangzhuang, closed the door and devoted himself to Zhuang construction and scientific research projects. After the cement road dried out, it almost didn't startle Shen Wang and the Shen family's craftsmen. Just a little water and sediment, it turned out to be such a smooth and smooth road? The whole body is as hard as a rock, as if a large long boulder has been mined and embedded in the ground!
This thing has a lot to offer! Shen Wang's eyes lit up when he looked at the cement road, and he couldn't wait to lie on the ground and lick two mouthfuls to enjoy it. Judging from Zhu Su's undistressed appearance of pouring cement when he was building the road, the cost of this thing is definitely not expensive.
But it can have such an effect!
What kind of cement is this, this special mother's is gold!
The craftsmen of the Shen family worked harder. The golden thigh of the Fifth Highness must be held onto.
The cement road is built out of the village for twenty miles, and the village is like a spider web extending in all directions. The craftsmen of the Shen family built a magnificent restaurant and an elegant opera garden in the planned place. Suzhou architecture is the leader of the southern style of architecture, these gardens and pavilions they are familiar with the way, more beautiful than the Fuller House on the bank of the Qinhuai River. This area, located in the east of Zhuangzi, has the appearance of a fang market.
In addition to the pavilion, the craftsmen of the Shen family also built a academy for Zhu Su. Half of the academy is at the foot of the mountain, extending to Bifeng Mountain, and higher up is Bifeng Temple. Li Wenzhong found an antique strange stone out of nowhere and stood at the foot of the mountain as the façade of the academy. There are not many houses in the college, only a large canteen, a large playground, and a horizontal building on the mountainside that serves as a teaching building. Although it is only a sketch creation, it looks quiet and peaceful at sunset, and it has a somewhat leisurely feeling.
"How does the fifth uncle want to gather popularity?" Li Jinglong looked at the neat and spacious cement street in front of him, and couldn't help but ask Zhu Sudao.
Although the road is wide and the opera garden and restaurant have been completed, there are not many people passing on this road. Except for the shopkeeper and the troupe borrowed from the Shen family, only Zhu Su and him Li Jinglong will occasionally come to see this street. At night, there is not even a ghost shadow, and it is gloomy and scary.
Isn't it pure money burning to build a tavern garden in such a wilderness?
"Mountain people have their own tricks." Zhu Su stretched out the folding fan, holding his head high, looking confident. The words "Wealth and Prosperity" on the folding fan made Li Jinglong's eyelids jump a few times.
Wu Wangye built a building in this kind of deserted suburbs to do business, and he has long become a laughing stock among Ying Tianfu. In this place, their Li family also has a part, and Zhu Su has long been in a relationship of both prosperity and loss. Zhu Su became a laughing stock, and he Li Jinglong was definitely not going anywhere.
In these second-generation circles, they only pay attention to face, and Li Jinglong is very panicked.
"When it opens in a few days, it is better to post in the name of my nephew and invite the sons and daughters of various families to support the field......" Li Jinglong gritted his teeth. I have to lose face left and right, I really can't take the initiative myself, at least make some prosperous scenes on the opening day, so as to protect some dignity for the fifth uncle.
"You have a heart." Zhu Su patted Li Jinglong on the shoulder. Li Jinglong was slightly shorter, so that Zhu Su could shoot more easily. "If you're looking for some friends, you can go to find them. It's just that there will be a lot of coming, remember to inform Shen Wang in advance. ”
"If there are too many people and the arrangements are not in place, it will be the face of your Cao Guo Mansion." As he spoke, he shook his folding fan and hummed a little tune and left.
"This ...... Too many people? Li Jinglong is like a second monk who is confused. Could it be that the fifth uncle is ready to unite with His Majesty and forcibly tie up the people in Yingtianfu?
In the blink of an eye, the opening day came. On this day, Li Jinglong was startled by the noise outside. After washing up, I went out to investigate, and almost even my eyes fell: I saw that the cement road that was cold and deserted on weekdays was full of people today. Countless carriages and pedestrians crowded on it, and there was an endless stream of sons in fancy clothes and big-bellied merchants!
"Brother Gong, isn't this a dream?" Li Jinglong asked Xu Yungong beside him with a shocked face.
"I don't think so." Xu Yungong was also shocked. After a few days of military training, he was no longer as fair as before. A moon-white robe made his face as black as the bottom of a pot. He waved his folding fan: "It must be the Fifth Highness, and what unexpected things have been done." ”
In these days in Zhuangzi, Xu Yungong has long admired Zhu Su's knowledge. Turning water into ice and using ice to make fire, all kinds of things that were previously unthinkable seemed as simple as a gesture to this Fifth Highness. I thought that the world's knowledge was in the book, and my sister must be one of the most learned people in the world. After meeting Zhu Su, I realized that there was a sky outside the sky, and he only learned in those old papers, but he was just a frog at the bottom of the well.
It is rumored that His Highness's talents and learning are taught by Godmen. Whether others believe it or not, Xu Yungong doesn't know, anyway, he himself believes it.
It's a pity that the book "Primary School Mathematics" written by His Royal Highness is too obscure, and His Royal Highness has stated that he will be qualified to learn his Gewu only after explaining this book. It took me a lot of effort to understand two or three out of ten. is as talented as Fang Xiaoru, and now he only understands four or five out of ten. Even today, he is still struggling in his little room!
The two followed the direction of the traffic and came to the theater garden, which had not been completed for a long time. I saw a huge wooden sign in front of the garden, with four big characters written on it: auction venue. Most of the crowd got off here, and there were a few tables in front of the gate to register their names, and there were people maintaining order. There was already a long queue in front of the garden.
"Are you here for the auction?" A thin man with squirrel-eyed eyebrows came out of nowhere, and his shirt was open to reveal a few wooden signs hanging inside. "I'm afraid the two petty officials are too late. This queue is so long, if the petty officials go to the back of the queue, I'm afraid they won't be able to get their turns. ”
"There are just a few more license plates here, and if the little official is interested, this will be transferred to you! Don't take advantage of you, a deck of license plates only charge you twenty taels! The thin man stretched out two fingers.
