On this day, Liu Zheng was still working on his drill bit for mine salt. The craftsmen in the fine iron workshop had already built the mold and would soon be able to produce it on a large scale. This also made him relieved. The backbones mastered the process very quickly.
It seems that in half a month, the mine salt will start mass production.
The issue began to cross his mind again.
Why establish the world?
He chuckled and looked at his Silver Beach City, which was being built at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Salt?
Is this considered the foundation of the world?
Recently, Zheng Yueru has been negotiating with the Baiya Army. Fei Ge sent letters several times but did not say the specific results. But who wouldn’t be tempted by something like refined salt? Obviously, Baiyajun was also very interested, and also very cautious. The last letter only said that Du Biao would come to Yinzhou in person to discuss with Liu Zheng on a certain day, and Liu Zheng was still waiting.
Unexpectedly, he first waited for news from Fengming Tower.
"My lord, there's a troublemaker here at Fengming Tower!"
The servant said so.
"What?"
Liu Zheng couldn't laugh or cry, ruining the scene? In the current Yinzhou, does anyone dare to ruin their own situation?
Xiao Wang, the servant, looked depressed: "Sir, tell me, tell me...she is a woman who will not leave after entering Fengming Tower. She made several students cry because of her. Isn't this ruining the place?"
For a woman to enter the Flower House, it was really shocking in this era.
Liu Zheng rode back without saying a word.
He originally thought that Xiao Wang's words were a bit exaggerated, but as soon as he walked into Fengming Building, he saw a red-faced student who ran out with runny noses and tears.
Liu Zheng was stunned.
The manager of Fengming Tower immediately came up to him: "Sir, what should I do?"
At one glance, Liu Zheng was happy.
A woman who looked plainly dressed was sitting in the Fengming Pavilion. She was facing this talented scholar from Yinzhou. She had a glass of wine and some fruits in front of her. What surprised Liu Zheng was that although this woman was not as refined as Shen Manqing. , not as elegant as Zheng Yueru, not as delicate as Chen Ruoshi, but still has a unique temperament of her own... If I had to say what it was, two words popped up in Liu Zheng's mind - aura!
His whole body seemed to be full of spiritual energy!
That spotless face and those spiritual eyes, at a glance, could make people ignore her beauty that could captivate a country.
Yes.
You no longer notice what she looks like, which is an amazing feeling.
She seems to be the kind of fairy who stepped out of a painting, unstained by the mortal world, and her eyes are so clear that people cannot bear to blaspheme. At this moment, she was sitting there with a calm expression on her face, but her eyes could not help but sparkle with curiosity about the world.
Liu Zheng was stunned.
"Master, Master?"
The shopkeeper shouted several times.
Liu Zheng shook his head: "No need to worry about her."
The shopkeeper looked bitter, and Liu Zheng did not go over there, but came to his exclusive private room again.
Fengming Tower is particularly lively today.
"You, you, you...my senior brother Zhou is so talented, how can I allow you to be so humiliated?"
Several scholars were furious.
The girl smiled faintly: "Did I make a mistake? That Zhou Liang was only five years old when he was studying. Now he is thirty-eight years old. He is still white. He spends all his time in flower houses, neglecting his wife and children, and not touching the fertile farmland. He borrows money to eat and drink, and he also wants to be a fan. My head is my companion! What is the use of such a scholar?"
Someone said angrily: "You, you... yellow-haired girl, do you know that this book was written by Mr. Hou of our state? How can we, the literati, write all the books for the sake of rice!"
Others echoed.
A scholar should have the pride and character of a scholar! If you choose this path, no matter how difficult life is, you must stick to it! I would never go to the ground with a hoe. I would rather go to school hungry than lose my pride!
How can you dig into the ground in one day?
Scholars should study, drink, and find followers!
Liu Zheng's eyes widened... Is that what the poem meant? Can it still be interpreted this way? These scholars are so shameless, right?
really.
The woman smiled mockingly: "If you, young master, really mean this, then it's bullshit!"
"puff……"
Liu Zheng still couldn't hold it back and spit out a mouthful of soju.
The entire Fengming Tower became angry and cursed. This Young Master of the Liu family has a far-reaching reputation. Who wouldn’t praise him? Who wouldn't be angry if you lead an unruly land and make it rich step by step, but it becomes bullshit in your mouth? But the woman still smiled faintly and took a sip of wine, showing no fear.
Liu Zheng laughed.
Quite angry with myself.
"Everyone, no matter what, you should not deviate from today's topic!"
"Yes, girl, please tell me, can you handle my young master's issue?"
"If you can't, then forget about the money for today's drink!"
A group of people reacted, and the shopkeeper also came over and said with a sneer.
The woman smiled softly: "Why establish a world? It depends on what kind of talent your Mr. Liu is! Now it seems that the talent of a rich man is more than enough. The talent of a prince is not enough. The talent of a king, haha..."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place would explode.
Unexpectedly, this woman chuckled and said, "Can I waive the money for drinks today?"
After saying this, he turned around and ran away, but the turtle men didn't stop him.
"Sir, this..."
The shopkeeper looked helplessly.
Liu Zheng smiled and waved his hands, but his heart was extremely shocked. This woman's knowledge is definitely extraordinary. But this girl is definitely not the one who left that picture for herself. But it must have something to do with that person!
What talent?
Liu Zheng has indeed been thinking about this issue these days.
Which direction should Yinzhou go now? This question doesn't seem to be very necessary. Develop territory, wait for the world to be in chaos, and then compete in the world? Isn’t this the case for all time-travelers?
but.
Liu Zheng felt that things were not that easy.
For example, among the current Longyan Dynasty vassal kings who are eyeing the throne, which one does not have hundreds of thousands of troops and controls dozens of states? How can we compare our two mere states and counties with them? In a small Liangzhou, there are Chen Ping and Bai Yajun.
If the world is really in chaos, he will probably become cannon fodder and no scum will be left.
As for making guns and cannons... that's pure nonsense.
No matter how powerful Liu Zheng is, he still can't come up with those things, and he doesn't plan to do so. The impact of hot weapons on the world structure is really too great.
Today, this little girl has enlightened herself instantly.
Why establish the world?
Then it depends on you first, what kind of material it is! How big is your heart! Governing a state or county is completely different from governing a country!
"Master, do you want to send someone to follow..."
The shopkeeper asked from the side.
Liu Zheng shook his head: "Absolutely not! She will come again."
"Remember, if she comes again, all drinks at Fengming Pavilion will be free of charge!"
"ah?"
…
Look here again,
The woman in plain clothes burped as soon as she left Fengming Tower. She rolled her dark eyes and ran to another street with satisfaction. She rode on her bay-red horse and left here at lightning speed. Before leaving, Don’t forget to smile.
"The taste of this fairy brew is really stronger than dad's fruit wine!"
"Hahahaha, hahaha?"
The bay-red horse ran towards the north of Yinzhou, running for fifty or sixty miles. This side was already a main road, and the surrounding area was deserted. On that side of the road, there was a thatched hut with a flag hanging outside with the word "wine" written on it. , there are several sets of simple tables and stools placed outside the house.
As she approached, the girl quickly scolded her horse, turned over, and carefully led the horse behind the house.
"Xie'er, have you gone to Yinzhou?"
A cold voice came from the small wine shop.
"ah?"
The woman looked annoyed and smiled: "Dad, Xi'er came back to buy you a drink!"
"hehe……"
The man smiled coldly.
This Hu Xier ran into the house to please the man, came to the man, and handed him the wine in his hand.
This man was about forty years old. The light in the room was dim, but it could not hide his angular appearance. He was dressed in white, which was quite out of place in this shabby wine shop. He took Hu Xier's wine, and his stern face said, He also showed a hint of doting smile, let his daughter squeeze his shoulders, and asked lightly: "How about Master Liu?"
Hu Xier looked shy: "Who went to see him? I went to buy wine!"
The man smiled, noncommittal.
In just half a year... He originally thought that this unruly land in Yinzhou would be a lonely place for the elderly. Who would have thought that Yinzhou would suddenly become prosperous... Originally, this wine shop had not seen many people for several months. In recent months, businessmen coming and going have actually made the place lively. The fruit wine I make on weekdays is not enough to sell.
The name Liu Jiagongzi often appears in the mouths of passers-by, and most of them praise him.
Is there a bright master in Yinzhou?
At first, Qingyang Shuo scoffed when he heard this.
However, as time passed little by little, various legends came to his ears, which greatly surprised him, so he and Hu Xi'er talked more about Yinzhou matters on weekdays, so he could not avoid the Liu family master. When he heard something interesting, Qing Yangshuo drew a few pictures at random.
"Didn't you see him?"
Qingyang Shuo asked with a smile.
Hu Xier looked annoyed: "Dad, I didn't come to see him!"
Qingyang Shuo laughed loudly, stood up, and said calmly: "That's good. Let's see if Mr. Liu can deal with the issue this month. If not, we should move away from Yinzhou." What else does it mean?”
"ah?"
Hu Xier pouted her mouth and rolled her eyes around, not knowing what she was thinking.
…
Sure enough, it was just as Liu Zheng expected.
The next day, this woman came again. This time Liu Zheng was still sitting in his exclusive private room. Listening to this little girl, he attacked all the Yinzhou literati students! This woman has clear ideas, from near to far, from running the country, to safety, to people-centeredness, to people's support, and to politics.
Liu Zheng was surprised again.
Who trained this girl? Even if this little girl were to govern Yinzhou now, she would definitely be hundreds of times better than her father.
On this day, Hu Xier drank for free again.
The third day...
Not only is she free, but she also packs it.
The shopkeeper was about to cry.
Liu Zheng smiled and said it didn't matter.
he knows.
There must be someone behind this little girl.
They are waiting.
Waiting for my answer to this issue.
On this day, Zheng Yueru and Du Biao finally came back.
