Since you don't covet official positions, let's be greedy for money.

Anyway, you have to be greedy for something.

In a different place, a person who has no shortcomings in his body, no matter how capable he is, Chen Kan will not be of great use, let alone Zhu Di.

Since he has come to the Ming Dynasty, Chen Kan must worship Zhu Di, the great Bodhisattva.

"My lord, it's all arranged!"

Seeing Shi Wen push the door in, Chen Kan couldn't help but rub his eyebrows.

"They are all skilled archers and horses, led by Huang Gou'er personally, one person and two horses, and when we get to Taiyuan, it is estimated that they will also transport those things back to Beijing."

"Hmm!"

Chen Kan stood up and looked at the sparkling river outside the window by the moonlight.

After pondering for a moment, he lightly ordered: "The official guesses, those people may not be able to wait for Zhu Jixi and the official to complete the transaction, are the materials on each ship ready?" ”

"A total of nine artillery pieces, 200 guns, and 3,000 catties of gunpowder, all of which are in place, and my subordinates are still afraid that they will not come."

A trace of vicious and ruthless expression suddenly appeared on Shi Wen's face, and Chen Kanzhi frowned, and couldn't help but scold: "Can your expression be decent, this time we are the positive characters!" ”

"The subordinate official is negligent, and my lord forgives me."

Hearing this, Shi Wen once again changed back to the appearance of a group of people who were not smiling and steady.

Chen Kan nodded with satisfaction.

That's right, obviously not a villain, why do you have a ruthless expression, in case you are misunderstood by a friendly army, you will shoot it in the face, and you won't have a place to cry.

"Okay, don't be negligent, no one knows how many people will come, let the brothers be vigilant, don't die on the Grand Canal, the dead can't divide the money."

After instructing, Chen Kan waved his hand, and Shi Wen exited the room with interest.

Before leaving, Shi Wen looked at Chen Kan's back and couldn't help but shake his head.

He found that he was getting more and more unable to see through this young Shangguan, at first he thought that this was a gentleman of which family came to Jinyi Wei to mix qualifications, but later learned that it was actually a senior disciple of the Ministry of Shangshu Fang Xiaoru, and he was even equated with the senior gentleman in his heart.

But after getting along for a long time, he found that this young Shangguan did not have the arrogant and domineering temper of other gentlemen, and he was also a stick in the east and a hammer in the west.

However, this way of doing things with a stick in the east and a hammer in the west can always achieve unexpected results every time.

Say that he is not afraid of power, and when he sees His Majesty, he will also be weak-legged, and he will also pat himself on the back, say that he is a sycophant, and he will directly offend the commander and the pacification envoy in order to save those officials who can't even be named.

Sometimes I think he is childish, and sometimes I think he is scheming.

Can't see through, can't see through at all!

Perhaps, this is the reason why he can be accepted as a personal disciple by a big man of Fang Xiaoru's level.

Chen Kan stood behind the window, looking at the moonlight on the river, and the cute appearance of a cute girl with big eyes once again appeared in his mind.

With a faint sigh, Chen Kan withdrew his gaze.

Love, it's really annoying.

......

......

In the Jingshi Palace, there is another person who sighs like Chen Kan, no better than Chen Kan, who has been used to staying in Jiangnan in his past life and in this life.

Zhu Yuelan has lived in Beiping since she was a child, and she has long hated the hot and humid weather in Beijing.

Not only is it easy to sweat, but it is also easy to grow a large patch of hot prickly heat on the body, which is absolutely unbearable for a beautiful girl who is in puberty.

Zhu Yuelan has been looking in the mirror all night, and the person in the mirror has a collar button on the soft plate, revealing a white neck with white teeth and red lips upward, and his eyes are a nest of clear pools, like fifteen-year-old branches, sixteen-year-old flower bones, and the bones are thousands of years old.

But a dense convex dot on the white forehead spoils this beautiful picture.

"It's so annoying, it's annoying, I want to go back to Beiping!"

"I really want to go boating on the Yongding River, I really want to go horseback riding, I really want to go to the pill, I'm not spicy!"

"I don't know if Brother Shizi is okay in Beiping?"

"Little Zhanji, stinky Zhanji, dead Zhanji, didn't even take me to the pill, I'm angry."

"It's so hot~"

After looking in the mirror, Zhu Yuelan rolled around on the wide bed, and Mama Rong looked at Zhu Yuelan speechlessly.

It was hot, but the ice in the palace had run out of ice last month.

Although many palace people in the harem are using saltpeter to make ice, the crushed ice made every day is naturally to focus on Zhu Di first, followed by the nobles of the harem, and then it is the turn of the prince and princess.

As for increasing the purchase of saltpeter in the palace, it is even more fantastic.

Millions of people in the entire Beijing division have to use saltpeter to make ice to relieve the heat, besides, saltpeter is still a war preparation material, once a large amount of saltpeter arrives, it must be given priority to the War Bureau and the Ordnance Bureau to make gunpowder, and the landlord's family has no surplus food.

The little ice slag that was distributed to Zhu Yuelan's hand every time was gone before it was warmed up.

After rolling on the bed for a while, Zhu Yuelan suddenly jumped up and grabbed Mama Rong's hand and asked, "I heard Song Xin say that the disciple Deng took the fleet north to escape the summer, right?" ”

Mama Rong stroked her forehead and said helplessly: "Who is the disciple?" ”

"Oops, it's the last time we went to the river to cool off and stepped on shit!"

Zhu Yuelan rolled her eyes, and was very dissatisfied that Mama Rong didn't know who the disciple was.

Rong Mama suddenly realized: "Her Royal Highness the princess is talking about Lord Chen of Jinyiwei, there is such a thing, but the slave maid heard that he was ordered by Banzai to escort the King of Jin back to Taiyuan to guard the tomb of the old prince, not to take the fleet north to escape the summer." ”

"I don't care about me, he just took the fleet to go to the summer, the dead Deng, the stinky Deng, he didn't bring this princess with him when he went to the summer, and the princess took you so many delicious foods every time, it was too spicy for friends!"

Looking at Zhu Yuelan's rogue look, Mama Rong couldn't help but remind: "Your Royal Highness Princess, pay attention to your manners, if you let the female officials who teach etiquette see it, you will be punished again." ”

"Ah~ I'm going to be hot, how can I pay attention to my demeanor, I won't take me with me for the summer, and I'll wait for you to come back and see how this princess will settle accounts with you."

...

"Ahh

Chen Kan, who had just been lying down, suddenly sneezed.

Hey, is someone scolding me?

"Ahh

Two more sneezes directly spewed out Chen Kan's sleepiness.

Kimono walked out of the room and onto the deck, where it was dark, only the torch on the bow of the ship was still strong in the night.

Chen Kan looked up, and the moonlit moon didn't know when it hid in a huge dark cloud, was it going to rain?

Song Qing came with a torch and couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Chen Kan standing on the deck.

Then he bowed down and said, "My lord, it's going to rain, the road ahead is unclear, and the treasure ship can't continue to sail." ”
