"Mi Langjun, I came here this time. In addition to wanting to thank you personally, I also want to ask Mi Langjun for advice. Now that the Crown Prince and King Lu stand side by side in the palace, what should I do?"
Lu Zhongshu of the school affairs office sincerely asked Mi Shiyilang for advice - Xinghanhui ranked eleventh, and it cannot be said that it was Mi Shiyilang.
After all, Mi Langjun once said personally that he was Shi Yilang, right?
Again, the school affairs office was hated by people in the Wu Kingdom. What serious scholar would be willing to associate with it?
Don't be afraid of ruining your reputation.
Therefore, the school officials in the government relied on Sun Quan's secret indulgence to make false accusations and slanders that were not visible on the stage, and they were good at persecuting ministers.
But he wanted to single-handedly provoke the two parties to fight and play with the entire Wu court so that they could take advantage of the chaos.
Such a grand arrangement would be impossible for all the people in the entire school administration office to accomplish.
Lu Yi, who had tasted the benefits for the first time, could already vaguely see the huge benefits that the school affairs office would gain from this matter.
So this time, he couldn't wait to run over, just to ask Mi Langjun. To be precise, he wanted to ask the chief commander behind Mi Langjun:
What should you and others do next?
He is his mother, you so-called scholars and Confucians, you are the enemy of the officials and the people and the traitors of the country.
But what you and your family did in Jingzhou was nowhere better than our school affairs office!
What we should hand over to His Majesty is a lot of money.
what about you?
Don't pay a penny!
Can this be said to be like a dog pig?
Okay now, if you don’t help me, someone else will!
In fact, for so many years, the attitude of the school administration, represented by Lu Yi, towards the Xinghan Association has always been one of sincere cooperation, mutual benefit and mutual trust.
I was even grateful to Feng, the leader of the Xinghan Society.
After all, Feng not only pulled the school government out of crisis, but also gave him huge benefits.
There were even several reminders later, each time benefiting the school office a lot.
Not only Feng Hui's leader, but also relevant personnel of Xinghan Hui have also tried their best to help many times.
It is not just once or twice that the school office has listened to the opinions of relevant personnel of the Xinghan Association.
For example, in the early years, Mr. Ma also made suggestions and helped the school affairs office a lot.
After Mr. Ma returned to the Han Dynasty, Lu Yi felt regretful for a while, not expecting that another Mi Langjun would come to him now.
Subconsciously, even a villain like Lu Yi subconsciously believed that it was natural to discuss matters with people from the Xinghan Society.
After all, is there any better ally in the world than the Xinghan Society?
No!
Within the territory of Wu, everyone from the prince to the officials and the people deeply hated themselves and others.
This has nothing to do with whether the school government has offended them.
Just because in their eyes, they don't criticize the school affairs office, and they don't make enemies of the school affairs office.
It is not enough to show their loyalty to His Majesty and the imperial court.
It is not enough to show their integrity, loyalty and diligence, and they hate evil as much as they hate evil.
To put it bluntly, even His Majesty, under pressure, considered sending the school office out to appease the anger of the ministers.
If he and others had not worked hard to save themselves, it would be a matter of two opinions whether the Dawu School Affairs Office would still exist today.
So, if you don’t believe in the Xinghan Hui, who can you believe in?
Do you believe those guys who are like pigs?
Facing Lu Yi's earnest gaze, Mi Langjun felt a different kind of turmoil in his heart:
Isn't the School Affairs Bureau Sun Quan's henchman? The school secretary, Fu Zhongshu, actually came to ask himself such questions.
crazy?
No, it should be said, what kind of drug did the brother give to the other party?
Or... is this Lu Yi a secret work arranged by his brother in the Wu Kingdom in his early years?
It's not his fault that he thinks so, but he's used to Feng's various methods of digging holes and burying people, so he can't help but think this way.
With his heart pounding, Mi Langjun repeated:
"What's next?"
What’s next?
It's just that my brother didn't seem to tell me what to do next...
Although Mi Langjun has seen big storms, and he is still considered a relative of the emperor.
It can be said that I have never eaten pork, but I have also seen pigs running away.
But for such important matters of national affairs, one must be careful and cautious at every step. This is not the time for him to make arbitrary ideas.
After all, he has not yet reached the point where his brother seems to make a casual move, but in fact, he has to wait several years or even more than ten years before he can see the hidden conspiracy.
If you come up with an idea that seems to be to help but is actually the opposite, then you are doing something bad with good intentions.
At this time, Mi Langjun was completely convinced that his brother should have played this game of chess a long time ago, and now was the critical time to make a move.
I saw him thinking for a moment, and then slowly answered:
"The outcome of such a major matter cannot be seen overnight. The fight has already begun. In the Second Palace of Nanlu, it is impossible for either party to find a way out."
"In my opinion, more and more people in the DPRK will be involved, so why should Lu Zhongshu be anxious?"
"All we have to do is sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and secretly observe the officials to prepare for His Majesty's needs. Moreover, the more fierce the dispute between the courtiers, the more beneficial it will be to the school affairs office, isn't it?"
Stay the same in the face of ever-changing situations. Before you know your brother's next move, it's better not to act rashly.
Unexpectedly, when Lu Yi heard what Mi Langjun said, his face lit up and he nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's exactly it."
Mi Langjun’s words are well said!
The more ministers involved in this matter, the more chaotic the situation becomes, and the more opportunities the school affairs office can take advantage of secretly.
Back then, our school affairs office was very skilled at doing this.
Then Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, and then looked at Mi Langjun expectantly:
"I just don't know how long we have to wait secretly until the time is right?"
This really confused Mi Langjun.
But seeing him calmly said:
"Don't be anxious, Lv Zhongshu. I will definitely send a letter back to Chang'an about the Prince and King Lu's coexistence in the palace. I'm sure my brother will have a letter delivered by then."
Lu Yi, etc., isn’t this the sentence?
I saw him let out a long sigh of relief:
"That's good, that's good. Thank you so much, Mr. Mi Lang! Then I'll wait for the good news from Da Sima?"
"It should, it should." Mi Langjun smiled, stretched out his index finger, and pointed back and forth between the two of them a few times, "They are all helping each other!"
"Actually, this time in Jingzhou, we also found some minor problems with tariffs in several places, so we may need help from the school affairs office..."
(Chapter 1117, according to the lease agreement reached between Han and Wu, Han helped Wu build an armored cavalry army, borrowed money, equipment, and war horses. One of the conditions was that Wu needed to use customs duties as collateral)
After hearing Mi Langjun's words, Lu Yi didn't even ask what the question was. He just patted his chest and said:
"Mi Langjun, just tell me where it is. If anyone is short-sighted and dares to play tricks on the customs duties, I will send the school secretary there immediately!"
Return it if it's the other way around!
In Jiangdong, whether or how to pay taxes is not decided by the school affairs office.
But in Jingzhou...
The school government can ignore you if you commit murder and arson, but not if you don't pay the customs duties!
Don't tell your uncle which family you are from.
Even if the heads of the four major families in Jiangdong want to transport goods through Jingzhou, they still have to pay!
This is not only related to the foundation of the cooperation between the School Affairs Office and the Han Dynasty, but also the foundation of the School Affairs Office's foothold in front of His Majesty.
As long as you charge less money, the school office will be the first in front of His Majesty.
If it cannot collect money, the school office will be nothing in front of His Majesty.
Military leader?
The military leader is even simpler.
Do you think that with soldiers at hand, school officials won’t dare to come to your door?
Do you know how the school affairs office started?
It would be naive to think that since there has been no movement in the school affairs office in the past few years, it will not monitor all officials.
Who will your Majesty trust more when it comes to money and food?
"Then there's Lao Lu Zhongshu."
Mi Langjun doesn't care who will be unlucky in the next few days. Anyway, he only wants to guarantee one thing: pay taxes in full!
What kind of unprecedented harsh government?
What does it have to do with my big man?
Aren't the people who went to collect the money from your country of Wu?
What I want is you right-wingers to develop a good habit of paying taxes.
——
The fire flows in the seventh month, the eighth month is still young, and the clothes are given in the ninth month.
At the end of August, the summer heat has completely subsided, and the autumn air is crisp. This is the time when the climate in Chang'an City is most pleasant.
Feng Da Sima held the letter sent from Wu State with a strange smile on his face:
"Sun Shiwan sent people to sea again? This time it's such a big deal, there are actually 30,000 people."
Remember when we sent people to find Yizhou, there were only 10,000 people, right?
"It seems that the ambition is not small..."
As soon as he thought of this, the smile on Feng Dasima's face became wider and wider. Coupled with the weird expression, it looked like the smile of a fool in the later tram series.
The light dimmed, and someone seemed to pass by the door and poked his head. He seemed to be frightened by Feng's smile, and quickly wanted to leave quietly.
"Come back! Why are you running?"
Feng Da Sima reacted quickly and shouted immediately.
A head appeared at the door again, Hua Xiaowu's eyes rolled, and he pointed at himself, "Alang is calling me?"
I don’t know whether she accepted her fate after giving birth to the child, or whether she fell in love over time and was convinced by sleep.
In the backyard of Da Sima Mansion, with no outsiders around, Hua Xiaowu finally followed the trend and called someone Feng Alang.
Feng Dasima said angrily:
"Who did I tell you to call? Come in quickly, I have something to tell you."
Hua Xiaowu turned her head and looked around, finding no one else. She reluctantly stepped over the threshold and said slowly:
"I was just passing by and wanted to find Amei..."
If you let me in, maybe there is nothing good going on. Otherwise, why is there no one else in the room?
Feng Dashima made a sound, very dissatisfied with this mistress who dared to lie to him:
"Amei has been busy working on steam engines on the Weishui River these days. I have to send someone to urge her back after dark. Where are you going to find her?"
"Go to the Weishui River..."
"How dare you!" Feng Dasima glared at his mistress, "Amei's research is at its most critical moment. If you dare to disturb her, see how I deal with you!"
The principles of steam engines are extracurricular knowledge that elementary school students can access.
But how to build a prototype—it doesn’t require high performance, just that it can move—is a problem that Amei has been trying to solve for more than ten years.
Because Feng Dashima didn't have a good solution for this.
This thing involves the issue of raw materials.
If you want to refine steel that meets the requirements, you must go through countless experiments.
He didn't want Amei, a national treasure engineer, to have an accident due to expansion or explosion when using some substandard and shoddy products.
Selfishly, he didn't want the child to lose his biological mother before he grew up.
And for Feng, the most urgent goal of the Han Dynasty in the early years was not to develop one or two new weapons, but to establish a national system capable of defeating Wei.
Because the weapons used are always people.
It wasn't until Bingzhou was captured that Xinghanhui was able to carry out large-scale steelmaking in Pingcheng and Jiuyuan. This would provide Amei with enough steel materials for her to squander.
Then there is the rubber material.
However, this problem is not a big problem for Feng.
After all, in his previous life, he was guarding the country's borders in the Northwest. He knew that there was a kind of grass produced in the Northwest, called rubber grass. He heard that the origin was still in the Tianshan Mountains.
Everyone knows that rubber trees produce rubber, but they don’t know that rubber grass is one of the three largest rubber-producing plants in the world along with rubber trees.
Just by hearing this title, you will know that rubber grass has the ability to produce rubber, and it can produce high yields without any pressure.
When he went to the local area to support his fellow villagers, Mr. Feng helped him build a small shed and cover it with membranes. The fellow villager was grateful and enthusiastically introduced him and his comrades.
It is said that this is a nursery for rubber grass. This thing is very powerful. If Nanyang does not provide us with rubber, we in the northwest will have backup strategic rubber and so on.
A lot of chicken blood was poured out, which completely activated Feng's patriotic enthusiasm, and he was able to swing the hoe very fast...
It was that experience that made Feng know that there is one last glue-producing plant called guayule.
But this, like the rubber tree, is native to the Americas, so I won’t go into details.
Feng currently does not have the ability to go to the Americas to dig rubber trees and guayule, but sending people to the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Regions to dig rubber grass is just a matter of words.
It can be said that the Dunhuang Zhang family made a great contribution to the Han Dynasty in reconnecting with the Western Regions.
Of course, digging rubber grass is not an easy task.
After all, people in this era have no idea what the use of this thing is.
Fortunately, its characteristics are still very obvious.
So after many twists and turns, people finally found the real rubber grass.
With it, you still have to plant it.
If you want to successfully plant, you must first transplant.
Daliang Prefecture is the most suitable place for transplantation.
If you want to successfully transplant on a large scale, you have to find planting experts in this field.
So Li Xu made a brilliant appearance.
Li Xu, who had already written half of the manuscript of "Xu's Agricultural Book", traveled almost all over Liangzhou and Shu in the early years, planting beans, rice, and wheat.
We also have to improve various fruits for Feng Jinzhu, such as cold melons and sweet apples.
He also had to transplant and try out various strange plant seeds collected from unknown places - such as Linyi rice and rubber grass.
Without all these years of experience, how could she have dared to say that she wanted to write a book on agriculture?
After the trial planting is successful, we have to find a way to plant it on a large scale.
Only through large-scale planting can we try to refine it, and then try to make rubber...
There are all kinds of things, how can it be easy?
Therefore, it is really beautiful to think of changing the historical trend with just one, two, three, four or five new gadgets without establishing a basic system.
Crushing the system is the right way.
It was only in the past two years that all the materials were prepared, and Amei could not wait to start experimenting with building the steam engine she had been thinking about for an unknown amount of time.
I don’t know when the prototype will be built.
I don’t know when it was improved from a prototype machine to a practical machine.
Feng doesn't have high hopes for the time being when it can be put into practical use on a large scale.
How could the ignorant Hua Xiaowu know these twists and turns?
She only thought that someone Feng wanted to cause trouble for her again.
Sure enough, you are dissatisfied with me and want to deal with me when no one is around?
Hua Xiaowu's eyes rolled again.
"Why don't you come over?"
"oh……"
"Sit next to me."
Feng Da Sima raised his chin and signaled.
"oh."
Hua Xiaowu sat down obediently.
After pondering for a moment, Feng Dasima asked:
"Does your cavalry team have spokespersons for Jiuzhen and Hinan?"
