Zhang Xiaobao said that Wang Juan wrote that from time to time, Wang Juan would stop and put forward his own ideas.
Li Xun also listened. This matter is also related to him. At the beginning, he had worked hard and used his own clan to beat people. Luzhou's business also had his shares, as well as the production of Shiwan Dashan. Have to find a market.
"Provide medicinal materials to tribes that oppose other people in the local area, so that they can better heal their injuries. If the situation requires, we can even send a small group of our doctors in Luzhou, just ten. In the past, we provided internationalist assistance. Kind, but be careful not to hurt yourself."
Zhang Xiaobao now talked about medicinal materials. Li Xun nodded in agreement. He likes to hear Zhang Xiaobao say such things. It feels great, but it is actually a lot of bad water.
Wang Juan wrote down Zhang Xiaobao’s words and put forward his own suggestions, “I think we should also ship the injured locals to Luzhou by boat. One is to promote mutual understanding, and the other is to cultivate goodwill between both parties. The other party understands that our Datang is peace-loving and our people are kind-hearted."
"Yes, write it down." Zhang Xiaobao agreed with Wang Juan.
Li Xun looked around, looked at Zhang Xiaobao, and then at Wang Juan. Seeing that the two people were talking, they were sincere emotions in their eyes, and he wondered if he had misunderstood the two of them just now. They were actually willing. Help the people there.
"One more thing needs to be added, that is, once the local people are sent to Luzhou, don't let him know too much, especially the prices. Okay, let's move on to the next one."
Zhang Xiaobao added one more time, which is regarded as passing this article.
Li Xun shattered the suspicion that he had just born in his heart. The kind of very hard, the sun is still the same, and the ru water is still the same. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan have not changed, which is not bad.
When Zhang Xiaobao was about to continue talking, he coughed and became thirsty. He just ate pickles and steamed buns. He didn't drink any soup. He ran to the place where the workers boiled hot water and brought a pot back, poured three bowls, and drank. One bite, then said:
“Reinforcement gives us the same peace-loving Xinyuan Island tribe’s weapons. You can pay for it first, don’t make a profit. It’s just a capital, forty perks for an iron knife, 80 perforations for a two-stone iron bow, and reinforcements for cement. , Help them build good fortifications, remember to pack them up, don’t learn from Japanese, transport them all into lumps.
Gunpowder, gunpowder, don’t need to give it to them, it’s troublesome to operate, and it’s easy for them to accidentally blow themselves up, but our people pay attention, we must bring firearms, send gunboats to follow, and go to the beach when in danger. "
"Okay, let me add that the craftsmen in Luzhou should also provide arrows, each counts two hundred words, the cost, and the local tribesmen make their own arrow shafts, which is also a technical cooperation." Wang Juan said to Zhang Xiaobao. Write it down and add it.
Li Xun listened, and began to feel sorry for the people on the island. Let you unite to resist. Now it’s alright. Don’t even think about taking advantage of it. What kind of iron sword is worth forty, and you can pay back the capital. Many people will die, and the rest are all pro-Tang.
Thinking of the dead, Li Xun also said, "It’s better for people to have fewer dead spots. God has the virtue of being good, and can teach them, let them know the etiquette, understand the honor and disgrace, and help them live a good life. I am willing to invest in shares. , Established Sino-Ocean Assistance Fund, Xinyuan Island Branch.
Give them the hope of a better life, purchase their labor resources at a high price, and produce ten catties of copper ore, which can be exchanged for a hundred cents per catty of cotton products, with a small profit. "
When he said this, Li Xun mustered a lot of courage and didn't make himself blush.
"Yes, your Royal Highness is really a good man with a common heart. It's better to smelt copper directly on the island in the future to produce rough billets and carry them back for finishing."
Zhang Xiaobao is very satisfied with Li Xun who can say such things.
The three people got together and thought about it one by one. When the sun shines through the clouds and shines on the three of them, it seems that there is a golden light, and the hot three keep drinking water.
Feng Changgong stood watching from a distance, hoping to see something. For example, something happened in Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s home, the business lost money, etc. After watching for a long time, he didn’t get any results. He told the people who followed him. : "Go back, the dream chaser is coming soon, go to meet him."
…
In the Sihai Academy, what Zhang Xiaobao just mentioned is happening at this time.
Yamamoto stood on the pier by the sea and directed a group of people to load loose cement onto the ship. At this time, the cement had already appeared in small pieces of coagulation, but it was not serious, and it could be crushed by hand. Thanks to praise In the inner courtyard of the Zhangwang family of the county, they were afraid that the cement would be too dry and the dust would affect the health of others, so they sprayed some water, not much, and the effect was not very good, but they were in good spirits.
Where did Yamamoto know that others were kind to help, and he didn’t know how to save the cement. He covered half of his face with his sleeves and narrowed his eyes. Being able to figure out how to make it is a great accomplishment."
"Hi!" Yamaji thought so too. "There are radishes and seeds that can grow ginseng, plus 10,000 thermometers bought at a high price. I hope it will succeed. By then, there will be no shortage of ginseng in our country, and it can be sold elsewhere. "
"There is no money, all the money sent by our country for consumption is spent, and we still owe ten ships of silver ore and five ships of sulfur. When the ships return to our country, they can unload the things and come back. Go back, otherwise I will be arrested later, and the people in the water and cloud will also encourage the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to prohibit other people from our country from entering the Tang Dynasty."
Yamamoto said worriedly.
If you don't have money, you can't get close to others. If you can't get close, you won't be able to learn skills. Once the boat goes, it will take at least half a year to catch up when the wind is good. During this time, you can't move around, which takes a lot of time.
Shansi also feels distressed about the money. There are indeed some people in Sihai Academy who are teaching and asking, but it is impossible to learn good technology. In the old days, you can say a few good things and send some money to learn, but now there is no one. Teaching, all good techniques are being managed.
The best technique is in the hands of the Zhang family in Sanshui County. They have stricter control and spend money to inquire about many techniques. It is said that there are no other ministries in the Tang Dynasty. It is good luck to get the technique to grow ginseng this time. Too much technology can't just be left there.
Thinking of the luck last time, Shan Temple was tempted again, and said to Yamamoto: "I think we should get in touch with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan in Baoxin County more often, and maybe we can get technology while not paying attention."
Yamamoto nodded and shook his head: "This matter is not working right now. Zhang Xiaobao is thinking about money all day long. Without money, he would never talk to us well, but many places in Datang have good places to raise them. You can send someone to learn it secretly. See if it can be used in our country."
"Well, when the ship leaves, I will arrange for someone to study, Yamamoto-kun, it is better to use other means to get some money first." Shan Temple took the matter over and put forward new ideas.
What he meant was to use economic means, either to make money directly, or to cheat. The tendency to cheat is a little bit more prone.
"No, no, don’t you have enough losses in Baoxin County? I planned to let them gamble on silver ore at a high price, and then found that there was no firewood in the refining process, and then bought the wood from the forest. After selling it to them, only a small part of the silver ore flowed out, and more of it was left by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
In the two confrontations, not only did I not earn a single coin, but also lost a lot of money. As long as Datang has Zhang Xiaobao, I will not expect to deceive others unless it is someone who is more powerful. "
This time Yamamoto vetoed it very decisively. When he thought of the two encounters, he had lingering fears. The rumors are true. Zhang Xiaobao is very proficient in money and he likes to find something for others. If he wants to come here, he knows it. Will participate, and the last remaining living expenses are also easy to lose.
"Mr. Yamamoto, Mr. Shansi, our people have just sent news that Baoxin County is going to draw a tributary from the Rushui River that flows through Xincai County. Li Xun, the son of Li Chengyi, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, is also in Xincai County. The workshop built in Cai County is the prince of Tongan County in Shuzhou."
A person hurriedly rushed to the pier and whispered as he approached Yamamoto and Yamaji.
Yamamoto’s brow immediately became a word for "chuan", indicating that the people who came to know it, and after he left, he said to Shansi: "The woodland in Baoxin County is probably bought for nothing. Once they lead the river, as long as there is not enough firewood, they can use the boat. The firewood from Xincai County will be delivered to the place soon."
"Those two thousand high-priced straws purchased this autumn are also lost?" Shan Temple also said something along the way.
"I lost it. I shouldn't have started from Baoxin County. It's not that Feng Changgong of Xincai County insists on benefiting. Otherwise, he would encounter such a thing in Xincai County."
Yamamoto regretted it. Before, he knew that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had arrived in Baoxin County. He was not convinced, so he had to try it. Now it’s good. If you lost before, you lost, but the final layout also lost. It’s too much. Aggrieved.
What they did this time was not specifically aimed at their own layout at all, they just brought it along by the way.
…
It is true that Yinheshui is not specifically aimed at the people of the Sihai Academy, but there are arrangements for the Academy to buy woodland and buy straw for futures.
Today, the sun in Baoxin County is warm, and I no longer worry about Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juanbi, who have begun to play the roles of interpreters and demonstrators again.
In the model place, I told others about the history of Gyeonggi Province. Now, astronomy and geography, I want to go over and take a look at it right away.
Two people who were not clear about the identity of the old man sighed again after inquiring. Shang Shu and the Prime Minister were different from ordinary people. Two people told them in person. The ticket is worth ten times the price, but it can be. See the emperor every day.
When the old man Bi and the three were talking and demonstrating their joy, a long row of carriages came out and rushed over. The ground was full of "black soil" accidentally leaking out.
When I was passing by here, I was seen by three old men. Old Man Bi walked closer and asked, "What is this for?"
The people in the inner courtyard of Zhang's family immediately replied: "The coal was transported from Xiangcheng. The coal is cheap and cheap. The little son and the little lady say it is useful."
