In the hall, the eyes wandered, and there were few words. Exactly: What's wrong with the first encounter of the eye waves? Gloomy mimosa. Do you know about it? The soul dreams are looking forward to getting up early in the sedan car.

Aunt Sun moved the lotus step lightly, and saw the two maids of Zijuan and Snow Goose hiding at the moon gate, pulling the flower branches and quietly looking inside.

When Aunt Sun got closer, she was immediately startled by the two maids. Seeing that it was Aunt Sun, I was relieved.

Aunt Sun smiled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Snow Goose covered her mouth and giggled, and Aunt Sun was relieved, and then said, "The master is awake and is about to see him come back to life." ”

Zijuan said: "Auntie, why don't you wait a while, I'm afraid that the girl hasn't talked enough with the fourth master of Jian." ”

"Then I'll wait a little longer."

in the hall.

Li Weijian put Luo Pa away carefully, and caught a glimpse of the skirt next to the flowers, and said, "I heard that there are children of the Lin family coming to disturb the door?" If my sister can't speak, then I'll send her away. ”

Daiyu shook her head and said, "That's not necessary. With the previous experience, the person who came back this time was extremely responsible, and I was afraid that he was bent on passing his stepfather's name. ”

"Uncle Lin has agreed?"

Daiyu said, "Father doesn't value these ...... Let's talk about the heart of the belly. He is looking at his duty now, but he knows if he is not pretending? The fourth brother doesn't have to bother, his father has already taken care of it. ”

"That's good."

There was a light cough outside, and Aunt Sun was about to come in slowly, and said slightly: "Resurrection, the master is awake, and he will be resurrected this time." ”

"Oh?"

Mo said that it was Li Weijian, and even Daiyu hurriedly got up and asked, "Father...... Are you okay? ”

Aunt Sun said: "Doctor Sun changed the prescription, and the two pairs of medicines went down, and sure enough, he woke up." ”

Without further ado, no one knows how long Lin Ruhai can last, Li Weijian hurriedly followed Aunt Sun to visit Lin Ruhai.

In the warm pavilion of the main room at the back, seeing the June day, the doors and windows were closed, and the smoke cage was raised. Li Weijian entered the inside, and smelled the strong smell of urine. Compared with the previous time, Lin Ruhai was a little clearer, his face was dull and yellow, and he was afraid that the toxins in his body would accumulate and keep coming out of the epidermis.

"Uncle Lin!"

Lin Ruhai caught a glimpse of Li Weijian, and a smile appeared on his face: "Resurrection is here, sit." ”

Without working for the helper, Li Weijian pulled over the stool and sat down next to the bed. Lin Ruhai couldn't sit down at this time, so he only raised his body slightly, looked at Li Weijian and said: "Don't say anything about greetings, I don't have enough energy this time, and I don't know when I will wake up next time." ”

"Yes."

"Resurrection...... The title of uncle has to be changed. ”

Li Weijian and Lin Ruhai glanced at each other, and suddenly their hearts cleared, and they got up and solemnly shook their hands to the ground: "My son-in-law has seen my father-in-law!" ”

"Yikes!" There was an exclamation behind him, but Daiyu, who was not at ease, chased to the door of the warm pavilion, and when she heard this, she was immediately ashamed, and hurriedly hid her face and left.

Lin Ruhai seemed to be really lacking in energy, because he only bowed his head slightly, so he said hoarsely: "Yu'er is still young, and I am afraid that I will have to complete the marriage with Fusheng in addition to filial piety." Because I thought about it, I made the following arrangement—"

Li Weijian leaned closer and listened to Lin Ruhai's arrangement......

The family wealth is scattered, and most of it is taken to Rongguo Mansion? But more than 100,000 taels of silver, how could Li Weijian care?

After Lin Ruhai said it, seeing that Li Weijian didn't care, he couldn't continue to explain the words, and sighed: "I have been an official for several years, and I don't want to be worthless in the eyes of resurrection." ”

Li Weijian hurriedly said: "Money has a price, but sincerity is priceless. The son-in-law cheekily begged Ken to be willing to be willing by his teacher, not for his father-in-law's family business. ”

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I knew that resurrection was affectionate and righteous, so I was relieved." After a pause, he said: "I have been a eunuch for several years, and although my family wealth is not much, I always have some old and old ones. Although people take tea and cool it, there are always people who will sell me a few thin noodles. ”

As she spoke, she looked at Aunt Sun, who took out a black wooden box from the cage and opened it, revealing a stack of letterheads.

Lin Ruhai said: "After resurrection has entered the officialdom, there is always a time when the horse stirrup is short. If you encounter something difficult, you can hold this letter and ask for help, which may be of some help. ”

Li Weijian knew in his heart that Lin Ruhai had passed on all his political resources to himself. He is proud of his youth, and he seems to have friends all over the world, but in fact, his foundation is the most shallow, and he can't even compare with the nobles who are out of luck. Now it seems to be full of flowers, but when there are setbacks in the future, how many people are really running for it?

Half of these dozen letters responded by then, and Li Weijian had room to turn around. The preciousness of this is difficult for outsiders to understand.

Because Li Weijian solemnly took it, and then got up and said: "Thank you father-in-law for taking care of you." ”

Lin Ruhai waved his hand and said, "I have sent out the last recital, but I don't know when the saint will give marriage." Yu'er will always be raised in Rongguo Mansion in the past three or four years, and if she is resurrected, she must take care of it more. ”

"The son-in-law is provincial, that is, the father-in-law doesn't say it, and the son-in-law doesn't dare to be careless."

They are all human spirits, and they have long known the decline of Rongguo Mansion, and the hundreds of thousands of white silver coins are dazzling. If you learn about the marriage between Daiyu and Li Weijian, who dares to guarantee that the Rongguo Mansion will not have the intention of eating out of the household?

Li Weijian checked those letterheads in front of Lin Ruhai, and most of them were sent to local prefects and imperial envoys in the court, and the highest ones were only from the third grade. Looking at his connections, he is not as good as his mentor Yan Xiyao, but such courtiers are the mainstay of Dashun, and after a few years, he can't be said to have changed his body, and he has become the Yanyan princes in the court.

After the inspection, Li Weijian really didn't see the letterhead sent to Jia Yucun, hesitated, and asked, "Father-in-law, why don't you see the letterhead sent to Jia Fuzun?" ”

Lin Ruhai frowned and said: "This person in Jia Yu Village can share wealth and prosperity, but not hardship." ”

This sentence breaks the mystery! As for why Lin Ruhai recommended Jia Yucun that day, Li Weijian was not stunned, and he never asked. This government and the opposition officials, capable ministers have the usage of capable ministers, and villains have their own usefulness for villains.

I heard Lin Ruhai say again: "I heard before, Jia Yucun seems to have gone through Chen Hongmou's door, and he can't say that he will be of great use in the past few years." Resurrected as an official in the inner government, he does not have to deal with him, this person's heart is unpredictable, and he should not be guilty when he rises. ”

It turns out that it has long been hooked up with the new party of the first and auxiliary lines! Li Weijian was immediately relieved, with Jia Yucun's temperament of drilling camps, where would he let go of such a big thick leg as the New Party? I vaguely remember that this person in the play was on the rise, and later he copied the Rongguo Mansion, which seems to be a ride to the new party.

At that moment, Weng and his son-in-law had a secret conversation, and Lin Ruhai Yin advised, and there seemed to be some resentment when they came. Lin Ruhai never broke the secret words in Yan Xiyao's letterhead, and Li Weijian was a second monk who was confused.

Because Lin Ruhai was seriously ill, Li Weijian was not good at staying in the Yansi house. When she returned to the inn at the end of the day, Qingwen led Xiangling, who had red eyes, to find her.

"Slowly, what's going on?"

Xiangling only cared about sobbing, and Qingwen said: "The fourth master doesn't know, Aunt Zhen has not been very good since she got on the boat, and at first she said that she was seasick." Who wants to have a high fever today-"

"Can you invite Lang Zhong?"

"Please, it's just that Lang Zhong said that the clouds and mountains are foggy, and he only said that Aunt Zhen lost both yin and yang, and said that this time I am afraid that it is dangerous."

Li Weijian frowned secretly. That Aunt Zhen has lived a hard life for more than ten years, only relying on the strength of looking for her daughter, and now she has found Xiangling, and her heart is complete.

Seeing that Xiangling was crying like a tearful person, Li Weijian said: "Okay, I happen to know a famous doctor, so I will immediately invite me to treat Aunt Zhen." ”

Xiangling hurriedly knelt down and said: "Thank you to the fourth master, Xiangling has nothing to repay, and in this life she is willing to be a cow and a horse to repay the kindness of the fourth master." ”

Li Weijian waved his hand and said, "That's it." You're someone close to me, so why don't I care about such a thing? ”

At that moment, Wu Haining walked through the Yansi Yamen, and invited Xu Daye, a famous doctor in Jiangnan, to come over and treat Aunt Zhen, not only yin and yang, but also qi and blood were extremely weak.

Xu Daye said: "The lady of the Zhen family, this illness comes quickly, wait for me to take two pairs of medicines and stabilize it for the time being." After that, it is necessary to raise it for one or two months, especially the food supplement and medicinal diet. ”

Xiangling hurriedly asked: "Doctor, my mother may go to Jingshi?" ”

Xu Daye twisted his beard and said: "I'm afraid it's not easy to move, so I have to raise it well." ”

"It's-"

Li Weijian offered the consultation money and ordered Xu Daye to be sent back to the inner house of the Yan Division. secretly summed up in his heart, Aunt Zhen's illness, Xiangling is afraid that it will be difficult to return to Beijing.

But Xiangling's temperament has always been soft, and she is used to being obedient, so she really can't afford to be at home. Leaving this mother and daughter in Jiangnan, it is said that they will not cause trouble, and they must always be left to take care of others.

It's a pity that Hongyu is not around, with Hongyu here, this matter will be handled properly. Now in addition to Xiangling, there are still Xiu Ying and Qingwen left, Xiu Ying is a simple man, with a body of martial arts, and she can't do it if she has no backbone; Qingwen has a temper, but her thoughts are on her face, and she has no scheming.

After thinking about it, Li Weijian ordered the three maids to tell him about it, and then said: "Xiangling's mother and daughter are afraid that they are going to stay here, and I plan to send the three of you to Sister Lin together." Needless to say, Xiangling, the two of you, one is to take care of Aunt Zhen; Second, she also took care of Sister Lin for me. ”

Xiangling was full of gratitude, Xiuying, a little unhappy that she couldn't accompany her, but Qingwen heard the sound outside the strings.

"Fourth Master...... You and Miss Lin. ”

Li Weijian smiled and bowed his head: "Keep the clouds open and see the moon." It's not easy to publicize this matter, so don't spread it. ”

Qingwen smiled and said: "Congratulations to the fourth master for getting what he wants, Miss Lin is the housewife, I am willing to do it." Fourth master, rest assured, I will take care of Miss Lin, and I will definitely not be bullied. ”

The matter was settled, and at night Li Weijian called Xiuying and Qingwen respectively, and left a thousand taels of silver for Qingwen, and several people spent it from Qingwen; and carefully explained Xiuying's simple girl. Qingwen dared to quarrel, every time she was obviously reasonable, but she was able to argue so much that she didn't pay attention to herself, Li Weijian explained to Xiuying, and tried not to quarrel if she could do it!

With Daiyu on the left and right, Lin Ruhai had already sent the concubine away, leaving only Aunt Sun who didn't cause trouble. Jia Lian will not be right and wrong for no reason, staying in the inner house of the Yan Division, and the most people who can come to the door to find trouble are the distant relatives of the Lin family. With Daiyu's support, which onion is the distant relative of the Lin family?

The two daughters only responded, but they were full of reluctance to give up Li Weijian, how could Li Weijian be reluctant? At night, she was going to be slept together and absurd, Xiuying replied shyly and never refuted, but Qingwen couldn't bear it, so she put on her clothes and fled.

The next day, Li Weijian led people to the inner house of the salt division early in the morning, and never saw Daiyu, but only asked Aunt Sun to tell her about it, and Aunt Sun only said that Li Weijian left someone to take care of Daiyu because she was supposed to take care of Daiyu.

Li Weijian didn't see it with a cheeky face, and after placing Aunt Zhen and the three maids, he took Bitong to board the ship and set off, all the way to Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture.

………………………………………………

Daming Palace, Imperial Garden.

Emperor Zhenghe was sitting in the pavilion, and Dai Quan presented a book.

Emperor Zhenghe took over the chapter and looked at it carefully. Wang Ziteng inspected the nine sides, and was born in Datong Yuyu, and only the month before was paid, and the court allocated 1.5 million silver to appease it, but this month it was about to make trouble again.

Emperor Zhenghe frowned secretly, such as today's generals, half of them are from Rong and Ning's two mansions, and they are about to start a war with Dzungaria, so they are the first to stabilize the word, but this investigation cannot be stopped.

He secretly thought to himself that he would have to appease these arrogant soldiers. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Yuan Chun standing aside, Emperor Zhenghe's heart moved, and he put down the song and said, "How long have you been in the palace?" ”

Yuan Chun hurriedly bowed down and said, "Back to the saint, it's been ten years." ”

"It's been ten years...... Emperor Zhenghe turned his head to look at Dai Quan, and ordered: "Yuan Chun has meritorious service and has been promoted to Zhaoyi." ”

Dai Quan hurriedly responded, and then looked at Yuan Chun with joy. Although Yuan Chun was a little happy on his face, he was extremely uneasy in his heart.

In the past two years, although the saint often took her with him, he had never been pampered, how could he suddenly rise to Zhaoyi?

Dashun inherited the Ming system, and if the woman in the palace is not a harem, she is a female official. Naturally, there is a shift between the two. The female official was favored, and it was common for her to become a concubine.

This concubine is from the queen down, divided into concubines, concubines, concubines, Zhaoyi, Jieyu, beauties, talents, servants, and ladies.

In his heart, Yuan Chun thanked Tian's grace, and was dignified as before, and served aside.

Emperor Zhenghe asked casually, "King Zhongyong has not returned?" ”

That Dai Quan hurriedly reported: "Back to the saint, the prince went to Beijing early in the morning, and he expected to delay for some hours. ”

"Hmm." Emperor Zhenghe bowed his head, threw Wang Ziteng's performance aside, and when he caught a glimpse of the next one, he hurriedly unfolded it and looked at it carefully.

This chapter is a seriously ill two Huai patrol salt imperial history forest such as the sea, the inside of the words sincere, knowing that time is short, and the two Huai salt politics are corrupt, imploring the sage to send capable ministers to cadres, quickly cut the chaos of the two Huai salt politics alienated, so that it can not be broken and not stand.

Later, he begged to marry his only daughter, and when he left, he licked the calf and expressed his affection.

Emperor Zhenghe was embarrassed. Lin Hai...... That's a courtier he trusts so much! Capable and accessible, but also mellow, but the result is two years ago, before he wants to show his strength and become seriously ill.

In the past few years, his wife died first, and his young son died again, so frightened that Lin Hai hurriedly sent his daughter to the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing, but he still couldn't prevent it!

It's wrong, just wait to sort out the salt administration, and Emperor Zhenghe still plans to use Lin Hai!

I also saw that the husband Lin Hai chose for his daughter was Li Weijian, and the emperor had mixed tastes in his heart. After thinking about it for a moment, he said, "Order the imperial doctor to go south quickly and treat Lin Ruhai." ”

If Lin Hai really does not take a holiday, Emperor Zhenghe will agree to this marriage. However, at this time, the daughter of the Lin family is still young, so she is not in a hurry at this moment.

Dai Quan responded, and hurriedly greeted Xiao Huangmen's orders.

Emperor Zhenghe copied the third chapter, but it was the cane sugar of the Guangzhou Inner Government that begged to keep the silver taels for next year.

Emperor Zhenghe frowned and said, "Why did the Inner Mansion also send the chapter?" ”

Dai Quan said with a smile: "Sage, King Zhongyong relieved the prime minister of the Inner Government the day before yesterday, and no one in the Inner Government was in charge for a while, so he had to report it and ask the Holy Man to call the shots." ”

Yes, my brother wants to lead the troops to the battle, and I have no time to pay attention to the complexities in the inner house. Emperor Zhenghe glanced at it, and the government of Guangzhou asked to keep 80,000 taels...... It's not much, it's accurate.

At this time, suddenly a small yellow door walked quickly and said to Dai Quan, who then bowed down and said, "Sage, King Zhongyong, please see." ”

"Xuan."

In a few moments, the Loyal and Brave King Long Xinghu stepped into the Imperial Garden, and this time the Loyal and Brave King could be described as in high spirits—finally leading the troops out again.

Emperor Zhenghe only glanced at it, and then teased: "The leader of the army is so happy? ”

The King of Loyalty and Courage is no longer formal, and he said hesitantly: "The saint knows me, and I have no other thoughts in this life, but I wish for the horse leather shroud——"

"Phew! The expedition is imminent, not to mention the unlucky. ”

"It's not a rush."

Emperor Zhenghe raised his chin, and the King of Zhongyong took his seat and reported: "All the members of the Wuyi battalion are ready, except for that sentry, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are ready to go." Sage, the younger brother plans to leave tomorrow. ”

Emperor Zhenghe said: "This is not busy...... When you go, there is no one in the inner government to preside over it, can you recommend candidates? ”

"This ......," King Zhongyong pondered, "The sage also knows that there are many assistant ministers in the inner government now, but there are only two people who can really take on errands. Wang Qin is older and acts more prudently; Zhao Kui is young and bolder. If these two can work together, then all the appropriate size of the inner government can be disposed of; If there is a strife, fear it...... Why don't saints choose another merit and lead the internal government to do errands? ”

Emperor Zhenghe scratched his head, this inner government is his own land, where can he let the foreign ministers get involved at will? Eunuchs can be appointed to lead the prime minister's errands, which will inevitably attract civil officials.

Then Li Weijian is a capable person, going south for a few months, and the cane sugar business is about to be rolled out. Guangdong is just the beginning, and the real big boss is still in Guangxi. If it really spreads out, ten years later, the annual income will not be 10 million, and 8 million will at least be there!

And then there was that cement business, which provoked the loyal and brave king to applaud and scold at the same time! Cement, after asking Yan Xiyao, I found out that this thing is simply a weapon for casting a city. If you build a fort in Qinghai, use this thing with masonry, and you can build a fort in a few days! Spread all the way through like this, and the siege also surrounded the Dzungar thieves to death!

It's a pity that the army is about to go out, and it's too late to prepare cement business in Shaanxi and Gansu. However, King Zhongyong had already transferred more than a dozen craftsmen from Xishan Island to stay in Xining to see if there was any opportunity to start a cement business.

After scolding, seeing that Li Weijian made 12 million taels of silver for the inner government out of thin air, it was not the fault that the king of Zhongyong only had a baby daughter, and this son had the intention to recruit Li Weijian as his son-in-law.

It is rumored that he is the God of Wealth Li, and he is really the God of Wealth!

Don't say that he is a loyal and brave king, but Chen Hongmou, the head of the dynasty, has changed his mind at this time. The day before yesterday, I saw that the officials were almost rectified, and after the fire was returned to the public, he came up with a policy of abolishing the cheap nationality.

From then on, the lowly status was abolished, and they could participate in the imperial examination, and the children of slaves were automatically separated from the slave status. There are thousands of slaves in the Jiangnan family, and all of them don't have to pay taxes.

If Li Weijian is unfortunately involved in the court dispute one day, I am afraid that the upper and lower levels will have to protect this living God of Wealth. Without Li Weijian, who will make money for Dashun?

It's a pity that Li Weijian is too old to convince the public. This time the meritorious service returned, this official position can not be moved, and the title is not easy to move, but the posthumous seal can be moved, and it is not a good reward.

Emperor Zhenghe pondered for a moment, and said: "That's it, go back and look for it in the clan, let's hold it for a while." ”

King Zhongyong agreed, and then said with a smile: "Sage, if you read the newspaper and see your brother leading the troops to the battle, you will be in a hurry to ensure that Li Fusheng is in a hurry." ”

Emperor Zhenghe smiled: "It's ridiculous, he just stays in the inner mansion, and after ten years, he will be transferred to the household department, how can he see the sky and want to lead the troops to fight?" ”

King Zhongyong said: "The sage doesn't know, Li Fusheng is thinking about being knighted, and I Dashun can only be crowned a duke, a marquis, and an uncle if he has military merits, but I'm afraid that's why I'm so concerned." ”

Emperor Zhenghe said: "Young people don't know the height of the sky, how can the confrontation between these two armies be child's play?" ”

Having said this, Emperor Kezheng and Emperor were a little relieved. Li Weijian has made great contributions repeatedly, and his family has countless assets, and Emperor Zhenghe is afraid that Li Weijian will slack off from then on, and then he will be confused by everyone. There is a pursuit of good, so that you can be driven with confidence, then Li Weijian can also do his best.

As for lingering in the Rongguo Mansion in the past, coveting the girls in the mansion...... Young people, who is not greedy and lustful? It's not a big deal. If Li Weijian is capable and capable, and self-denial is like Mr. Taoism, then the emperor will muttered in his heart: Don't seek fame and fortune, what do you Li Fusheng want?

Now that it is almost clear, Li Fusheng hooked up with the second girl of Rongguo Mansion, and turned his head and asked to marry the only daughter of the Lin family...... No wonder they asked for marriage. Although this matter is not new in Dashun, it is not rare. It was the daughter of the Najia family, which made Emperor Zhenghe disgusted.

There are many good women in the world, why do you want to marry the daughter of the Jia family?

Collecting his thoughts, Emperor Zhenghe said: "I'll talk about it when Li Fusheng comes back...... I thought about it, if I didn't succeed in letting him escort grain and grass, I would just mix it up with military merits. ”

King Zhongyong suddenly smiled and arched his hand: "Brother is also thinking like this. After sending grain and grass, the younger brother detained Li Fusheng in the camp to avoid a mistake. ”

Yuan Chun stood on the side, secretly thinking about the words of the saint and the loyal and brave king, thinking about turning around and always handing out the words, so that the good students in the family could make friends with Li Weijian. At this moment, he suddenly saw the saint glimpsing over, and after a brief glance, the saint's eyes were extremely sharp, like a knife piercing him.

Yuan Chun was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly lowered his head. After a while, seeing that the saint had a very happy conversation with the king of Zhongyong, Yuan Chun was secretly afraid. There are some words here, I'm afraid it won't be good to spread out!

……………………………………………………

On the Yangtze River, two official ships went down the river.

The crescent moon hangs high, and a ship behind it is brightly lit.

Bi Tong gently sharpened the pencil with a knife, and when she looked at it obliquely, she saw that there were more Latin characters on the paper, and more Chinese characters that she couldn't understand. The young official sitting at the back of the table frowned and thought for a long time, not knowing what to think.

The boat line flows into the Yangtze River from the canal, and the river does not stop for a moment, and it has passed Jiangyin by nightfall. Perhaps because of the approaching rainy season, the weather outside is hot, and Bitong feels as if he has returned to the Hao realm.

Several maids around the new owner have stayed in the prosperous Yangzhou, and now she is the only one left, Bitong can't help but feel worried, both looking forward to it, and a little afraid.

Although she was far away in the East and couldn't figure out the Oriental calendar, she knew exactly that she should have passed her sixteenth birthday. After getting along with Qingwen, Xiangling, and Xiuying for a long time, Bitong gradually adapted to oriental thinking.

In their opinion, a young official like the new master can be regarded as a dragon and a phoenix in the entire empire, and it may take a hundred years to produce one. It is a supreme honor to be a concubine for such a person, or even an outer room.

She has the most contact with Xiu Ying, who always mentions her new owner in her spare time. said how depressed the new owner was more than a year ago, and even took the risk of borrowing 3,000 taels of silver for an exam qualification!

Then the new master relied on his incomparable talent and ability, and soon won the appreciation of His Majesty the Emperor, and after the exam, because of his previous merits, he not only became an imperial official, but even a knighthood.

Bitong always listened to her mother talk about the past, and knew that it was almost impossible for an ordinary person in Europe to become a nobleman! And this kind of thing will happen in Dashun almost from time to time.

Perhaps it was adapted to the oriental aesthetics, this Zi Bitong peeked at it, and only felt that the new owner was extremely pleasing to the eye...... Maybe it's because the new owner treated Xiangling and her mother well. Perhaps, the new owner will be so kind to himself in the future?

Bitong knew she had no choice but to pray that her new master would be gentle when she went to bed...... After all, it was her first time.

In the midst of his thoughts, the tip of the pencil broke. Bitong's heart tightened, but she saw that the new owner did not react. She breathed a sigh of relief and sharpened it again.

Li Weijian stretched his body and put down the pencil, and as time passed, his memory really blurred. The last time he came into contact with chemistry was in a public class at university in his previous life, and now he has even forgotten some chemical symbols.

The industrial revolution is not only a power revolution, but also an all-round follow-up of physics and chemistry. Shixue barely took root in Dashun, and it was widely spread among scholars, and many scholars became scholars comparable to Xiyi. But chemistry, Xiyi didn't understand it, and he counted on the people of Dashun to study it by himself, but he was afraid that Li Weijian would not be able to see it before he died.

I don't know if the battle of Qinghai can be caught up in time, but the pace of promoting industrialization cannot be stopped. The small-volume pot camel machine and the larger volume of the steam engine are all being built in an orderly manner, and the next priority is steel, and then the chemical materials.

Hey, take your time.

Li Weijian moved his neck, and when Bitong saw this, he hesitated slightly, and then stepped forward and gently kneaded it. Li Weijian closed the closing and asked aloud, "What time is it?" ”

Bi Tong took out her right hand, took out the pocket watch from the sweat towel around her waist, opened it and glanced at it: "A quarter past eight o'clock in the evening...... Well, it's a moment. ”

"Well, it's not early, it's time to rest."

Bitong immediately said, "I'll go make the bed." ”

Bitong stepped forward, Xu was not used to Dashun's clothes, her skirt stumbled, Bitong staggered to stabilize her figure, and hurriedly went to the next cabin.

There was a faint sound of crackers outside, Li Weijian wondered in his heart, how could people on this shore set off firecrackers in the middle of the night?

At this moment, the footsteps outside were approaching, the hatch opened, and Cheng Ao was about to come in with a solemn face: "Langzhong, there is a ship two miles away to engage in battle!" ”

The sleepiness was suddenly swept away, and Li Weijian got up and said, "Do you know who is fighting?" ”

The Japanese have never been extinct, but they are so afraid to go ashore. Dashun shipping accounts for a very high proportion, and businessmen are naturally not stupid, because private shipping is also extremely developed. The ronins who escaped from the shogunate sometimes harbored the islands and reefs near the Dashun coast, taking advantage of their unpreparedness to plunder ships.

Li Weijian thought about it, no, this is on the Yangtze River, if the Japanese dare to come in, wouldn't they be shut down by the Yangtze River sailors and beaten by the dogs?

Because he hurriedly asked: "It's not a wolf, there are also water bandits on the Yangtze River?" ”

Cheng Ao was also puzzled by the second monk, and said: "The lower officials don't know why, I heard that there are some water bandits in Taihu Lake, but they are not in the climate. This Yangtze River waterway has frequent traffic and traffic, so I guess there should be no water bandits, right? ”

"How many boats?"

"It's not real in the dark, it's probably a dozen small boats besieging two big ships."

Li Weijian immediately stepped out, got on the deck, and took a single telescope from the forbidden army to look into the distance. As the ship approached, one big ship could be seen in flames, and another big ship would occasionally release its guns, and the water bandits who were shot would scream and fall into the water.

After observing the measurement, Li Weijian understood it. The two big ships were official ships, and the dozen or so that attacked were fishing boats, and the bandits had no artillery.

Li Weijian and Cheng Ao glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Mr. Cheng Whistle, this is the credit of sending it to the door." ”

Na Cheng Ao said worriedly: "You always have to protect Lang Zhong first." ”

Li Weijian was happy: "There are more than 100 forbidden army brothers on the two ships, and they are still afraid of dozens of water bandits? Cheng Whistle can always rest assured that he will do it, and I will go back to the cabin to hide for a while. ”

Cheng Ao smiled at this time, and arched his hand: "So, thank you Lang Zhongcheng." ”

"Ha, don't blame me for delaying everyone to go to Qinghai to make a fortune."

"Haha, Lang Zhong said he was joking."

This time he went south, the silver money that Li Weijian rewarded alone was worth a year's worth of money for everyone, who would dare to blame? I'm afraid that I can't wait to follow Li Weijian for a little more time.
