Brother Jiu feels that he is very self-aware.
"Khan Amma, you just said yesterday, 'A ruler is short, an inch is long.' Military affairs are the son's shortcomings, so the son will not compete with his brothers. You see, the son is not very attentive to other tasks. I can think of these bits and pieces on weekdays, but there are no big achievements, but small achievements continue. This is the strength of his son..." Kangxi couldn't help laughing and said: "You are so shameless, you just talk about it, and you haven't seen anything yet. Now, I just think about the credit!" Brother Jiu said: "You are not here, son, why are you being so polite..." At this point, he looked at Kangxi and said: "At the moment, potatoes are feasible, but corn is not. Poor, coupled with the mature cowpox vaccine, as the prince said yesterday, a prosperous age can be expected, and Khan Amma will become one of the most powerful emperors in history. I don’t know how to praise Khan Amma in future history books..." Kangxi He shook his head and said: "You haven't done anything yet, but you are thinking about success!" Brother Jiu said: "Khan Ama, you are here, what else do you have to worry about? It's all right." Kangxi was silent, and he promoted variolation back then. When I was growing up, the biggest obstacle I encountered was that mature seedlings were too expensive and young seedlings were too dangerous.
Only if a vaccine that is safer and cheaper than the mature vaccine is launched can the vaccine be really popularized. With a prosperous population and high yields of food, a prosperous age can be expected.
He looked at Brother Ninth and said, "You gave the credit for promoting grain seeds to Brother Four, don't you regret it?" Brother Ninth shook his head and said, "What do you regret? Let your son inspect the crops all day long. My son can't stand running around. With his body, if he loses ten or eight pounds, he will lose his weight. My son knows his shortcomings, can't bear the hardship, and has no patience. He doesn't count on this contribution anymore... " At this point, he gave a thumbs up and said: "My son thinks that Khan Amma is the most powerful. Confucius made a plan to teach students according to their aptitude. Khan Amma, you are teaching your son according to his aptitude. Everyone can show their strengths and do their best. Bit, isn't this great!" Kangxi hummed and said, "When you can still talk, you know how to coax people. Do you want anything else?" Brother Jiu was silent for a moment, thought about it carefully, and said : "But my son is not short of anything, he is not short of money, he has both children, and his errands are quite good. Why don't you pay the bills first, and I will let you know when my son needs anything in the future!" In fact, he lacks a title.
But Brother Jiu felt that he would be a fool to say what he wanted at this time. Even if the imperial father nodded, he would still be at a disadvantage.
On the contrary, if he is so coquettish, when the emperor pays for his merits, he will get a double share. Ha ha! Brother Jiu felt that he had touched the pulse of the emperor's father.
The emperor's father also had a bad temper. He was not willing to give anything to others. If others stopped asking, he would probably just give it to them.
Brother Ninth's spirit became more and more relaxed. Kangxi was also speechless with such an unmotivated look. He paused and said, "I heard that besides milk, you are doing other things like goose?" The North Institute is right in front of Changchun Garden, and the news about the Fifth North Institute has never stopped. .
Before, Kangxi thought it was food and drink. Now that we know that milk is connected to smallpox, what is the connection to the goose?
After hearing this, Brother Jiu immediately became energetic and said: "I haven't thought of telling Khan Amma yet, but my son has discovered an excellent thing to keep out the cold, which is duck down and goose down. Clothes made of this are not as warm as big sweaters. But it should be warmer than a small sweater, but the smell is too strong, so I can't use it for the time being. My son is waiting for the weaving master from Jiangning to come to Beijing. At that time, in addition to the wool factory, we will see if there is also a down farm for cleaning. Grease-treated down is just like cotton and can be used to make clothes, quilts, etc." Kangxi just asked casually, but he didn't expect any follow-up.
He looked at Brother Ninth and felt a little proud in his heart. Brother Ninth should let him do this. Economical and frugal.
This goose down and duck down are all poultry waste, but they can still be used. He looked at Brother Ninth and said, "Do you have a plan? Is it going to be linked to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" The wool factory that Brother Ninth mentioned before was going to be linked to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Well, it will save trouble to buy duck and goose down directly from the imperial village." Kangxi was quite pleased after hearing this and said: "If duck and goose down are really useful, then they can be included in military supplies in the future! "In this way, even if it is not exported, the sales and use of duck and goose down can be guaranteed.
Brother Ninth is not very interested in that. Anyway, he is left-handed and right-handed. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has made several amounts of money, so he can do whatever he wants.
When Kangxi woke up, he felt strange and digressed. He asked: "How sure are you of using cowpox as a vaccine?" Brother Jiu trusted Shu Shu in his heart and said: "More than 50%!" Otherwise, Fujin would not take action.
My own Fujin acted much more cautiously than I did. Kangxi nodded and told Liang Jiugong: "Pass Fusong in." Liang Jiugong responded and brought Fusong in.
Fusong had met Shengjia before, and he was less reserved and more respectful. This is not an outsider. In terms of being a grandnephew of the family, he is also an in-law of the ninth elder brother.
Kangxi asked Fusong carefully about the pox cow and pox man. Fusong described the appearance of the pox cow, and also told the story of the cowherd.
The spots on the cowherd's hands were caused by a pox-contaminated cow a few years ago. After that, if a cow got pox, the owner would send him to take care of it, so as not to leave it to others.
Kangxi nodded, looked at Fusong and said: "Brother Jiu recommended you to take charge of this matter. You go back and hand over all the errands at hand today, and then lead someone to take charge of this matter!" This was to suspend Fusong's master of ceremonies.
The main reason is that I can no longer go to the Prince's Mansion. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens. The three children in the Prince's Mansion couldn't bear the consequences.
Therefore, during this period, Fusong could not go to the prince's mansion, and he had to keep a distance from his ninth elder brother. Although Brother Ninth has been vaccinated against pox, who knows whether the pox on this animal will be transmitted again.
Fusong understood what Kangxi meant and looked at Brother Jiu with hesitation. He knew that the Ninth Prince's Mansion was empty and short of manpower.
If Gao Yanzhong is still here, he can stand up. Gao Yanzhong is not here, and it makes people worry if he leaves again.
Brother Jiu saw his hesitation and said: "Don't worry about the palace. There are vacancies in the ceremony. It's time to make up for the vacancies. Just let Khan Ama point out two old people to come down." His prince's palace was originally full of three people. For the ceremony, one is from the fifth grade and two are from the sixth grade.
Before, there were only two people, Zhang Tingzhan and Gao Yanzhong, but now only Zhang Tingzhan, who works part-time, is left. Fusong then looked at Kangxi and said, "This slave has received the order." Although Fusong's move was somewhat disrespectful, Kangxi was not annoyed... Ninth Prince and Fusong came down from the imperial court.
Brother Jiu finally let go of his worries and said to Fusong: "Don't rush, but don't delay too long. Your sister is reluctant to let Fengsheng and the others vaccinate against pox." Fusong said with some dismay: "Within half a year, I will It's hard to go to the prince's mansion." Brother Jiu asked: "Does it take that long? The variola lasts for seven to ten days, and the cowpox vaccine should be about the same." Fusong said: "It's better to be careful. Fengsheng and the others didn't vaccinate against pox. , it won’t be good if it gets something on it.” Brother Jiu said, “Don’t be so embarrassed, half a year of forbearance has passed, this time I have made a contribution, I can’t say I can get a big reward...” Even if I don’t return, If you are a clan lord, you can also reward a civilian lord.
At noon that day, Brother Jiu brought Fu Song back for lunch. Shu Shu was only happy for Fusong.
But when she heard about the infection, she became worried. She looked at Fusong and said, "Be careful, be careful, take more precautions, wear a mask, wash your hands more often, and don't rub your eyes." Fusong said, "Don't worry, sister, I will take good care of myself." Yes." Brother Jiu also said: "The imperial doctor is here. Fusong doesn't need to do everything. At most, he can act as a clerk or something, so don't worry too much." Shu Shu nodded, but how could he not be worried?
But now, I can only force myself to stay calm. Fusong had lunch and went back to the Prince's Mansion. Now that Gui Yuan is doing odd jobs beside him, he will hand over the general affairs of the Prince's Mansion to Gui Yuan first.
Even if someone points out the ceremony from outside, it's still not as safe as the old man. The next day, Qingxi Bookstore issued a new appointment.
Cao Yueying, who was walking in the Hanlin and South Study Rooms of the Inner Court, was appointed as the Sixth Grade Ceremony Officer of the Ninth Prince's Mansion. When Brother Jiu got the news, he was drinking tea and almost choked.
He Yuzhu hurriedly took the handkerchief, wiped it for him, and said: "Master, is this person inappropriate?" Brother Jiu shook his head and said: "What's the matter with Khan Ama? Is this a place for Buddhist scriptures? Is this always arranged?" A person who goes through the motions. Although this person is not a Jinshi, he is walking in the inner court specially recommended by the learned scholars..." Such a person will have to leave after being unable to stay in the Prince's Mansion for two years.
Brother Jiu is not very happy with this choice. One Hanlin, another Hanlin. What he wants is someone who can do things like Gao Yanzhong.
But now that the transfer order has been issued, there is no way to go back. Back at the elder brother's place, the ninth elder brother complained to Shu Shu: "He is an old Hanlin again. He is not watching me study again, right?" Shu Shu was impressed by the name and said: "It's from Cao Zhizao's family. Nephew?" Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Well, I guess this clan has some connections. The two of them are not from the same place of origin, but it's hard to tell. There was chaos in the past few years. If it weren't for Cao Yin's help, Khan Amma would not choose Cao Yueying like this..."* Fill in the chapter that was missing a few days ago.
The next update will be around 12 noon on May 14th. Welcome to the Qidian app.
