Contemporary materials are so limited that spectacle frames can only be made of wood, and the shape cannot be twisted.

Fortunately, the effect is practical.

A group of embroidered girls with glasses on the bridge of their noses but wearing skirts are directly full of disobedience.

The days that followed were calm and tranquil, and everyone was busy with their work.

Song Che stayed in the study all day long, using the knowledge he learned from modern times to carry out invention experiments, of course, those high-end things will definitely not be realized, and some simple daily necessities are indeed not difficult.

As a modern time-traveler, even if you move the things in the primary school textbooks to ancient times, you can shine.

Shen Wenjun was busy making small clothes for his younger brother who was about to be born, and "in duplicate", the same style, cut two sets, saying that it was for his son in the future.

……

"Uncle, Lord He is here to find you."

The young man knocked softly on the door outside the study.

If He Qiu took the initiative to come and find it, there would definitely be nothing good.

At this moment, Song Che was using a compass ruler to concentrate on depicting the design drawings on the desk, so he replied casually:

"You go and tell him that I have gone to the countryside to inspect the mulberry fields in the past few days, and if I have free time another day, I will visit him again."

"Uncle...... Lord He, he's outside the door. ”

"Uh......" the corners of Song Che's mouth twitched.

"Whew-"

The door was pushed open, He Qiu was dressed in civilian clothes, with a calm face, and was about to step into the study, but Song Che suddenly called out to him:

"Let's start by saying that this time you came to me, is it a good thing or a bad thing."

He Qiu hesitated for a moment, but still walked into the study, closed the door with his backhand, and said coldly: "I can't come to you if it's okay?" ”

Song Che shook his head and smiled, raised his hand and made a "please" action: "There is some chaos in the house, Lord He, please find a place to sit." ”

The house was indeed very messy, with wooden shelves and confetti scattered everywhere, He Qiu walked through a pile of miscellaneous items with disgust and curiosity, and was suddenly attracted by an oval-shaped "basin", he pointed and asked:

"What is this?"

Song Che glanced at it and said casually: "Oh, this one, it's called a flush toilet, and it's still a half-finished product." ”

"Pumping ...... Toilet? What is it? ”

"It's a commode, take off your pants and sit on it, and it will flow down three thousand feet, and when you're done, press the button on the lid of the bucket, and the water in the bucket will flow down, like a whirlpool, and your ...... Uh, hehe, drained into the latrine through the pipes connected below. ”

"Hey, it's too much of a move, how convenient it is to go directly to the toilet."

"It's not right for you to say that, when the rice is eaten in the stomach, it will eventually be discharged as poop, and it is more troublesome to eat poop directly, so it is too much?"

"It's not a big deal."

He Qiu walked to the desk, glanced at the design of Song Che's strokes, and asked, "What are these two-wheeled vehicles?" ”

Song Che held up the design drawing and said with a smile: "This is called a 'bicycle', as long as you pedal it with your feet, it can run on its own, and it can travel on a flat road, faster than a horse-drawn carriage, and when I design it, I will send you one back." ”

He Qiu flicked his sleeves slightly, swept away the confetti on the guest chair, sat down and hummed softly: "I am a prefect of Suzhou, how can I ride this kind of thing?" ”

Ah, that's right, think of a state prince wearing a black veil and an official uniform, riding a bicycle to go to the church, and then matching his unpleasant face......

"I came to you today for three things."

He Qiu didn't sell it either, and said bluntly:

"First, in the Xicheng District of Suzhou, you should also know that the roads are full of potholes, the houses are dilapidated, the bridges are in disrepair, and the ditches are stinking, which greatly affects the city's appearance...... Last year, I appeased the displaced people, and the previous prefect's extravagance, which led to the financial deficit of Suzhou Prefecture, I really have no money to repair bridges and pave roads, you can help me find a way. ”

Song Che winked at him and didn't say a word.

He Qiu's cheeks flushed slightly, but he said righteously: "Business, take it from the people, use it for the people, you make so much money, you should also take out some money to give back to the people and make some contributions to your hometown." ”

Damn, after going around for a long time, dare to borrow money?

"How much to borrow?"

"You're misleading—"

"Say the number."

Engage in all these bells and whistles?

"Borrow 50,000 taels first, and repair the road and a few stone bridges on the main road in the west of the city first," He Qiu said, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, now that the Japanese are calm and all industries are recovering, I will return it to you with interest when there is a bumper harvest this autumn." ”

Song Che shook his head and smiled: "It's rare that Lord He came to visit today, since you have opened Chrysostom, it's only 50,000 taels, it's too polite to say that you borrow, so it's all a donation." ”

"You ......" He Qiu smiled bitterly: "It's really rich."

And he said:

"The second thing, I heard that Boss Song bought three salt farms in Chuzhou - the salt from the two Zhejiang provinces, the quality and price are not second, so I thought, can we cooperate, you make salt, I transit, the price is higher than Huainan, lower than Suzhou, and then wholesale to Suzhou counties, towns and towns to sell, in this way, the government, you, the people, the three parties win, why not?"

Salt is the main source of government revenue, and now that the Japanese have been pacified, the salt introduction policy has been abolished, and the government is fully qualified to monopolize it.

If the salt is granted to the governments of Huainan, it may not be as high as the Suzhou government.

"Huainan's salt can be transported to Liangzhejiang?" Song Che asked.

He Qiu waved his hand, "You don't have to worry about this, I will personally negotiate, the matter of transferring salt, all levels are very lenient." ”

Song Che was originally a little worried about this salt business, after all, he had never set foot in it, this is good, the government came directly to seek cooperation, with this backer, he was not afraid of violating the ban, just sit and collect money.

In addition, if you can fertilize the water and keep it from flowing into the fields of outsiders, why not?

Song Che readily agreed.

"This third thing may make you feel a little unpleasant."

He Qiu says:

"Zheng Xiaowei was promoted to the ruler of Xiuzhou and Huzhou because of his meritorious service in suppressing the Japanese and bandits, and was transferred to Xiuzhou a month ago.

Song Che frowned and asked, "This newcomer shouldn't have the surname 'Liu', right?" ”

"You guessed it right, he is Liu Chao, the brother of Liu Wei who was killed a few days ago."

He Qiu sighed: "I was also sorting out the case, and I accidentally learned about the relationship between Liu Wei and Liu Chao, this Liu Chao is not small, his father-in-law is Xiliang to pacify Ma Wei, holding the power of Xiliang's soldiers and horses, and playing a pivotal role in the court;

Although Liu Wei was not killed by your housekeeper, he has something to do with you. Although I am the prefect of Suzhou, I have the same grade as the system, so I can't help him. ”

Song Che frowned.

Slowly pull open the drawer next to your desk.

A golden dragon sword lay peacefully in it.

Will I be afraid?
