Queen Ma knew her husband's virtue, so she took her husband's hand and said softly.
"If those weapons were not made by Xiao Gu, but if they were made by another country, and Your Majesty wants to buy them, how much do you think the other country will ask for them?"
Hearing this, Lao Zhu didn't say anything.
First, he guessed that other countries would definitely not sell it.
Because if you sell it, it may pose a threat to your own country.
Even if it were to be sold, it would definitely be at a sky-high price.
Anyway, if it were him, it would definitely be impossible to sell it to others.
Foreigner: No, no, no, we originally wanted to sell the gun to you, Emperor Qianlong, but they didn’t like it and didn’t buy it at all.
Empress Ma said softly: "Just think that you used the gold to buy those blueprints. If you take good care of them, maybe you can come up with better guns?"
"Yes or no?"
If you want the chef to make better dishes, then you have to pay enough.
If you give someone a piece of tofu, no matter how good their cooking skills are, they still can't make meat.
Lao Zhu nodded. After the girl said this, he felt more comfortable.
"My sister is right. In this way, it seems like we are getting an advantage."
"This little Gu is a good person. It is my Zhu family's luck to have such a talent serve as an official in the Ming Dynasty. It is God who protects the descendants of my Zhu family."
It was true that he felt distressed after being given so much gold, but it was also true that he was not angry. After all, he is a gentleman who loves money and gets it in a wise way.
If you love money openly and honestly, it's better if you don't just plunder people's fat and people's anointing.
When Gu Chen left Beijing, almost half of the people in the court came to see him off.
Of course, under Lao Zhu's massacre, even if everyone came, only a few people would come.
But as a troll, it's really good that he can still have such good popularity.
Han Yike sighed: "There is no one in the court now. Apart from the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Personnel, you also have to serve as the Ministry of Rites, which is hard work."
In all dynasties, how could any official hold the job of so many ministries?
Apart from his Ming Dynasty, I'm afraid there will never be anyone else, right?
"Yes, I am still going the same way as a dandy like Mr. Li."
Bao Chuan glanced at the Li family father and son not far away, and said something meaningful.
"Brother Gu, I'm really sorry for you. It's a pity that the officials of the Ministry of Rites are vacant. We are busy with business and can't do without people. I can't go with you."
The road is full of mountains and rivers, and I don’t know how this kid will deal with people.
His voice was not particularly low, and the Li family and his son, who had good hearing, could hear him clearly.
"Hey~"
Li Jinglong couldn't bear his bad temper. He was about to step forward to argue, but his father grabbed him tightly.
He said unhappily: "Dad, why are you stopping your son? Didn't you hear those nerds saying bad things about me?"
The nerd still calls himself a gentleman, if you have the ability, come and speak to him.
Look at whether he can move his fists!
"Is he right?" Li Wenzhong let his son go, and then warned with a stern face: "Remember the lesson of the hunting ground, and don't get along with Mr. Gu again."
"do you know?"
Li Jinglong could hide the incident at the hunting ground from others, but not from his own father.
After dealing with a few followers, what else do you not know?
Gu Chen was just a slippery loach, and he wanted to suffer a loss just because of his own son.
I'm afraid, it will be a bit difficult, and there is a high possibility of encountering backlash.
"I know, Dad."
Thinking of the smell on his body that day, Li Jinglong felt a little uncomfortable on his face.
Guo Chong here smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, although you are not at home, I will definitely teach Brother Hao well and I will not slack off for a day."
Of course, teaching is incidental, and eating is the top priority.
Gu Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Sure, as long as Brother Hao can win the imperial examination in two years, then Master Guo can eat up all the food in my family."
This big man from Shanxi shouldn't be too good at eating. He can eat eight bowls of pork noodles with soy sauce in one meal.
Fortunately, fortunately, his family does not lack this kind of noodles.
The people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate's reluctance to part with Gu Chen was mainly reflected in the secret cabinet in the courtyard.
Now that Gu Chen is gone, it will probably take a long time for the cabinet to be opened.
The New Year is coming soon. Who doesn’t look forward to celebrating the New Year with a year-end bonus?
"Master Gu, you should come back early, we will miss you."
"Yes, Mr. Gu, the Metropolitan Procuratorate can't do it without you."
"Master Gu, without you, we have no backbone."
"Yes, Mr. Gu, do you have anything to say to us?"
They seriously suspected that Mr. Gu had forgotten about the year-end bonus.
But as literati, they need to save face, and they are embarrassed to say it directly.
"Virtue!"
Seeing how reluctant they were to leave, Gu Chen guessed what these poor workers were thinking.
He smiled and dug around in his arms, then took out the key to the private cabinet and handed it to Han Yike.
"Teacher, please help me. Let's give everyone a point during the Chinese New Year."
Seeing that the year-end bonus is over, everyone looks at me and you, we are all very excited, feeling that we can have a good year again.
Han Yike looked at the key in front of him, but did not reach out to take it.
"I can't figure out the abacus and can't do this job. Let the young people do it."
When Guangxi comes up in the future, he will always promote his own people to the top.
If you want to be a high-ranking official, you must have good popularity. Popularity is accumulated.
Starting from now on, his official career will be smoother in the future.
"become."
Gu Chen didn't know what the teacher was thinking, so he just thought the teacher thought it was troublesome, so he handed the key to Yu Min, which was equivalent to handing over the matter to him.
"I can only share half of it, and the remaining half is to reimburse my foreign business partners."
I can earn 20 million by traveling on a business trip, but other partners don't have this luck.
Even if Lao Zhu asked them to pick it from the private treasury, they would not dare to take the gold.
So, you still need to keep some as a spare.
After all, fines are not issued every day, so it depends on God’s reward.
When Li Jinglong saw that these civil servants were only talking to Gu Guangxi from beginning to end, he smiled and nodded and ignored him and his father.
"What are you so arrogant about?"
"bookworm!"
He didn't even understand where these nerds got their noble energy.
When it comes to money, it's better to live at home.
When it comes to power, it's not as good as one's own.
You're so good at it, do you think it's a big deal to get a Jinshi?
Oh, no.
It seems really serious.
People really rely on their own abilities, but he relies on his father.
During the first half month when Gu Chen and Li Jinglong were on the road, they managed not to disturb or talk to each other, and they treated each other as if they were nothing.
But there are so many delicious dishes here at Gu Chen's side. It's just a cabbage, but he can make all kinds of dishes.
Xiao Lizi looked at the dried meat and cabbage soup in his pot, and then smelled the vinegary cabbage next door, and instantly felt that his appetite was gone.
The personal attendant prepared a meal for him and delivered it to him respectfully.
"Young Master, would you like to have a meal?"
After Li Jinglong stared at his entourage for a while, he took him and whispered instructions.
"Can our cook know how to cook Gu Kuaikou's dish?"
The attendant shook his head honestly. He had just asked the cook.
The cook said that he had never seen this recipe before and there was no such dish in the restaurant.
"Young Master, how about we just make do with it?"
How can you have so many demands when you are away from home?
