"Your Majesty, this is the conclusion given by the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry after reading the drawings!"

At this moment, another guard stepped forward and handed over the fold.

Emperor Xia groaned: "Read! ”

The guard said cautiously: "The divine craftsmen said that the structure is not complicated, the difficulty is how to ensure the uniformity of all the parts, and they guess that His Highness the Ninth may have used new weights and measures. ”

"But as long as you give half a year, you can completely reproduce the fire gun and find a way to mass production!"

"Where's gunpowder?" Emperor Xia muttered.

The guard replied: "Regarding gunpowder, we have indeed prepared a lot according to the recipe, this thing is easy to be damp, flammable, and explosive, but if you want to achieve the power of the earth-shaking thunder configured by His Royal Highness the Nine, I am afraid that it needs to be further explored, Your Majesty, why don't you invite His Royal Highness Nine back to the capital and ask him for guidance?" ”

Emperor Xia snorted lightly: "Please come back?" Do you think he'll come back? ”

The guard paused: "This ......"

Emperor Xia waved his hand and said: "Okay, put aside other things first, about the Xiao family's seizure of the family and the extermination of the clan, you will get a charter as soon as possible, remember, I would rather kill than let go, I will cut the grass and eradicate the roots!" ”

"No!"

……

Seven days later, Cangzhou City.

Qin Yun said goodbye to Ji Wusheng, Zhao Yuzhi and others who were sent all the way.

As famous young talents of the Ji family and the Zhao family, under the arrangement of the elders in the family, they naturally want to get closer to Qin Yun.

Especially the Ji family, although Ji Qing did not go to the capital this time, he asked Ji Wuming to take the words back, if anyone dared to make eye contact with Qin Tianmei again, he would chop whom!

And it was these words that saved the Ji family from the purge brought about by the Qin Tian rebellion.

It is said that after Qin Yun and the others left, hundreds of people from the Xiao family in the capital were directly arrested and put into the prison, and their heads were collectively cut off at the entrance of the vegetable market on the second day.

And the Xiao family's hometown is supervised by Jinyi Wei, and all the heads within the five suits are on the ground.

Just the Xiao family is in turmoil, and there are tens of thousands of severed heads!

The entire Great Xia, and even the neighboring countries, were talking about Qin Tian's rebellion. Even if Qin Yun rushed to Cangzhou, he had heard about it.

"Your Highness, the inferior rank and others have been sent here, Marshal Ji sent three thousand elites to act as His Highness's private soldiers, and the marshal asked the humble post to pass on the message, and his Han Weilong's 30,000 black armor army has gone north to fill in the line in accordance with the will of the imperial court!"

"It is said that the Heavenly Wolf Tribe has been moving in the Hexi Corridor recently, and Marshal Ji has no choice but to temporarily stay in Longxi to prevent the counterattack of the Western Regions Protector!"

Ji Wuxian handed over three thousand elite talismans.

Qin Yun took it with a smile: "The marshal has a heart!" ”

Ji Wuming arched his hand: "Your Highness, take care!" ”

On the other side, Shen He was holding something in his hand next to the Shen family.

"Your Highness, this is the map that Shen Shangshu gave you, which includes the details of the islands south of Qiongzhou, but there are no big ships going to sea in Great Xia, these are all left by Da Zhao back then, and the specific situation is unknown now."

Qin Yun: "Thank you Lord Shen on my behalf, and send him chilled lychees next time!" ”

Shen He looked at the carriage behind him: "Your Highness, you must treat Miss Shen well, the lord said that if His Highness is undecided, he will send someone to the capital to find him." ”

"But don't think about money, the court is poor, and it is the limit to be able to help His Highness reduce taxes for three years!"

Qin Yun: "This old man, why is he not even willing to give a little dowry." ”

Shen He lowered his head and was silent, took out another map from his cuffs, and said in a low voice: "This is the iron mine found in the east of Qiongzhou, the imperial court here does not know about it, but it was discovered by the Shen family, and my lord asked His Highness to keep a low profile!" ”

Qin Yun's eyes lit up, good father-in-law, he was worried that there was no iron mine to develop.

Although there is one in southern Yunnan, Qin Yun's development goal is obviously not over there.

Although he is now the king of Zhennan, southern Yunnan, western Sichuan, Luochuan and Qiongzhou are under his jurisdiction, and even Luochuan's taxes have to be handed over to the imperial court.

As for other places, they are mostly undeveloped mountains and barren land, and there are many Tusi tribes entrenched in Qiandi, and Qin Yun has no time to take care of them now.

The road to Qiongzhou needs to take the waterway from Cangzhou, take the road to Tongzhou, first go east and then go to the sea from Yuzhou to Qiongzhou.

When Emperor Xia learned that Qin Yun specifically wanted a piece of barren island land, he thought that Qin Yun was deliberately showing weakness, so he simply waved his hand and gave it to him directly.

But this also led to Tongzhou and Yuzhou becoming an obstacle for Qinyun to connect western Sichuan and southern Yunnan.

Of course, these problems are not big, as long as Qiongzhou develops, whether it is by commerce or pure force, Qin Yun believes that sooner or later, the land of these two states will be in the bag.

Bactria was actually a dynasty in which the county system and the feudal system coexisted, somewhat similar to the Han Dynasty.

In terms of generation, Tongzhou and Yuzhou are both princes who were named by his uncles.

It's just that in their generation, the throne has been lowered to the third-class county king, but in front of Qin Yun, a first-class prince, he doesn't dare to take advantage of the elders.

Qin Yun's soldiers and horses arrived outside Tongzhou City, and the governor of Tongzhou and the king of Tongzhou, who was enshrined here, came to greet him with his whole family.

That attitude is called a passion.

The old king of Tongzhou is more than sixty years old this year, with a group of wives and concubines, and the eldest son is already in his forties.

"The minister has seen His Royal Highness King Liang!"

The prince of Tongzhou treats each other politely, and Qin Yun naturally will not hold a shelf.

"The prince doesn't have to be polite, this king is just passing by!"

A group of small county lords, county lords, and princes all looked curiously at the prince who came to the capital. In their worldview, the prince from the capital is like a rich relative from the big city.

It's their unattainable existence!

However, Qin Yun had already been prepared, taking out the candy from the carriage behind him and throwing it to these little guys.

Shen Yue, Liu Guanguan, Jiang Yingying and others also came out to meet them, and soon the atmosphere became harmonious.

What, where did the little doctor go?

Of course, she was left in the capital by Emperor Xia, and she is leading people to demolish the Liang Palace!

"Qin Yun, you big liar, you said okay to take me away, okay, you go, I'll demolish your house!"

Liu Jin and a group of brocade guards on the side looked at each other.

But now they can't afford to provoke the little doctor fairy, super first-class treatment, the palace can come and go at will, I heard that there was an unknowing concubine yesterday who scolded her, and she was thrown into the cold palace in the afternoon and thought about it.

Now she's in Shangjing, and it's a crab walking sideways. And because of the identity of the little doctor fairy, it naturally attracted the pursuit of the noble sons in the capital, and even the king of Longqing shamelessly said that he wanted to marry the little doctor fairy.

But they were all played around by the little doctor fairy with poison.

Those who want to get close to her, almost none of them have a good time, and the second prince has also eaten countless closed doors.

However, there are still people in Shangjing who have become good friends with her.

The so-called same-sex attraction, this person is Bai Wanqing, who is quite open-minded with her.

The little doctor fairy demolished the house, and she was also present.

"Sister Ziyan, it's not a way for you to demolish it like this!"

The little medicine fairy snorted lightly: "I can't be cheap, this bastard!" ”

Liu Jinxin on the side mentioned his throat, my little ancestor, alas, if you scold Qin Yun, you will scold, but you can't scold Your Majesty!

If this is heard, the little doctor fairy will be fine, but Liu Jin will have to suffer an old sin.

Fortunately, Bai Wanqing spoke in time.

"Sister Ziyan, in fact, there are still many interesting places in the capital, such as my Bai family's garden, there are many exotic flowers and plants, and there is also a treasure cage pharmacy left by the old doctor fairy."

"What is the old man doing in your house?" The little doctor muttered.

Bai Wanqing smiled: "I heard that it is a prescription that cannot be cracked by doctors in the world, and the old man of my family wants you to take a look." ”

The little medicine fairy looked at Liang Wangfu: "However, I haven't finished dismantling it yet, if I don't dismantle it today, I can't be calm!" ”

Bai Wanqing said with a smile: "You can only be happy if you dismantle it once, in case you think of Qin Yun next time, don't you have no place to vent." ”

"I have a good idea? It can not only allow you to vent the resentment in your heart, but also make Qin Yun's heart ache. ”

"What's the solution?" The little medicine fairy asked.

Bai Wanqing: "I'll help you find a special painter to draw your heroic posture and send it to Qin Yun, and send one every time you open it, so he will definitely be angry." ”

The little medicine fairy's eyes lit up: "Why didn't I think of it?" Sister Bai, she is really as smart as me! ”

"That's, why don't we go to the Bai family garden?"

"Let's go, Xiao Dezi, you continue to dismantle!"

"No!"

……

In the palace, in the imperial study, Emperor Xia was reviewing the household department, and kneeling down was a household department officer.

"Deficit, shortfall, no money...... What's the use of raising your bunch of shit? ”

"Your Majesty, Great Xia has been fighting again and again, and now the southwest can't collect taxes for at least three years, and even if we are clever women, it will be difficult for us to cook without rice!"

"Then the people will be hard again, the Northern Qi will garrison 400,000 soldiers on the border, and it will be autumn soon, so you can bear to let my soldiers wear summer clothes to guard the land?"

"Order, additional ploughing tax!"

"Your Majesty, by all means, the people are already miserable!"

At this time, Shen Wansan arched his hand.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a plan to solve the urgent need!"

"Say!"

"The imperial court should introduce a tax on the average land, that is, no longer according to the head of each household, but according to the per capita amount of land held."

Xia Huang paused: "What's the difference?" ”

Shen Wansan looked at his colleagues around him, Emperor Xia waved his hand, and the ministers retreated.
