Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 655 Generosity

  Zhu Houzhao's thinking is different from that of his father.

  He is a subversive by nature and never cares about the constraints of rules.

  The so-called ancestral law, in fact, the ancestral law has long been revised beyond recognition by the descendants. Otherwise, if you are greedy for a few taels of silver, you will peel the skin and fill it with grass. Emperor Hongzhi has the ability to try it, and the world will be in chaos.

   It can be seen that the law of the ancestors is a basket. When you need it, take it out and use it. When you don’t need it, who cares about your **** ancestors.

If Emperor Taizu Gao had a spirit in the sky, he would look at the descendants shouting the law of the ancestors, and at the same time, hey, why is it different from Lao Tzu's original law? Not very live.

  Zhu Houzhao didn't like Fang Jifan's one-acre three-acre land in hiding in the farm all day long. He was a man with big ambitions, so he set his mind on the desert.

Fang Jifan’s farm is in the desert. You are lazy, Fang Jifan. The Tatars are here to rob you again. Daming has many barriers. With the barriers as a cover, the Tatars can’t break in. If they can’t take away the food, they will rob you of Fang Jifan. You continue to eat and wait to die.

   I have to say that this incentive is very powerful.

  When Emperor Hongzhi heard Zhu Houzhao's bluff, subconsciously, he felt a little displeased, brat, talking nonsense here again.

  In a blink of an eye, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes suddenly darkened.

  This... is quite interesting.

He smiled slightly and said: "So, that's fine, then, let's give the farm in Mobei to the Princess Mansion. This is what I bestowed on Xiurong, and it is Xiurong's dowry. Fang Jifan, don't be disgusted. "

   Save money.

Anyway, Mobei does not belong to me. The reason why Ming Dynasty didn’t take Mobei was because of Ming’s modesty. When Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Wen were there, they chased the Mongols and rubbed them on the ground like chasing rabbits. , If you want the land in Mobei, you have already got it.

  But the reason why I didn't take it was because there was no way to gain a foothold.

  Now, didn’t you, Fang Jifan, say that the lump in Mobei can grow food? Then go plant it, the ones that grow out will all be surnamed Fang, if my gentleman says it, it will be hard to catch up with four horses.

  Fang Jifan was happy. In the later generations, Mongolia is a good place. I don’t know how many cities with per capita GDP beat the mainland. There is no other reason...there are mines.

   What coal, oil, all kinds of rare metals are too numerous to enumerate, and the reserves of gold mines and copper mines are also amazing.

This desert is known as east forest, west mine, south agriculture and north animal husbandry. To the east is the huge branch of Daxing'an Mountains, with dense forests. Agriculture can be cultivated in the south. With the appearance of sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes, the output is amazing. The mines are exhausted, and grazing can be done in the north.

  Gold mines...copper mines...

Right now, the development of coal mines does not make much sense for the time being, because although coal has begun to be popularized, after all, the demand is not large, and there is no need to take coal from the desert, the cost is too high, but... gold mines and copper mines are different. …fucking currency, oh yeah, and there's another place with a massive silver mine.

  No matter how much you dig, you can never find too much of this thing.

Fang Jifan probably remembered the location of some mine veins, because in his last life, he had been to Inner Mongolia. Many cities in Mongolia have become their own pillar industries because of different minerals. The trucks from Yulin to Baotou are almost endless. , watching Fang Jifan salivate.

Fang Jifan looked bitter: "Your Majesty, this... the desert does not belong to Ming Dynasty. Didn't Your Majesty draw a big pie for my minister? It won't work. After thinking about it, I'm too disadvantaged. My son's heart is small." , I just like wives and children on the kang, your majesty will give me some land to provide for my sons and ministers to take care of me."

   Pension…

  As soon as Fang Jifan mentioned the word "pension for the elderly", Emperor Hongzhi refused to follow. If you provide for the elderly, what will the prince and grandson do? Who told you to have too many ideas, thinking about retirement now, it's so worthless.

  Emperor Hongzhi said decisively: "I have already opened the golden mouth, why didn't you say it earlier, now that the golden mouth is full of water, it is too late. In the future, if there is something unhappy in your heart, say it earlier."

   "..." Fang Jifan said in his heart, you said it yourself, I didn't force you to do this.

At this time, the big mouse had already eaten its milk, and immediately felt satisfied, so it fell asleep. The woman of Li Ertou's family was overjoyed, seeing that the big mouse was so cute, still hugging her, Xiao Jing Unceremoniously taking the big mouse back, Li Ertou's family said: "He likes to eat my milk, and he falls asleep after eating, benefactor, come and take a look, take a look."

  She is very happy that she can serve her benefactor. In order to prove that she is capable of doing things, she repeatedly wants to prove something.

  Fang Jifan was a little embarrassed, so he had to give her a thumbs up: "I didn't say anything, good tits."

The face of Li Ertou's family was flushed, and he seemed excited. Li Ertou was originally a poor and settled family. Fortunately, he entered Xishan, and his life was prosperous. Now, the baby is born, and the Qingwa house is also built. Fang Jifan was full of gratitude.

   Without Fang Jifan, in this hungry world, would we be where we are today? Maybe he died of starvation, the whole family is grateful to Fang Jifan, even if they have a little favor, they feel more comfortable.

Emperor Hongzhi had already got up, and now he couldn't care about Fang Jifan. Seeing that Longsun was breathing evenly and fell into a deep sleep, his heart became hot. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that he hadn't seen enough. Looks happy, since that's the case, then please invite this woman into the palace to feed the grandson of the dragon."

  …

  Actually...Fang Jifan really wanted to say something, the baby is not picky eater, he is satisfied with drinking water and milk, and he is also very peaceful.

   Of course, there is no need to say this.

Emperor Hongzhi said again: "The grandson of the dragon is still young, and Concubine Fang needs to take good care of her now. This grandson of the dragon should be fostered in the palace temporarily, and raised in Qianning Palace. The empress dowager is afraid. If she knows, she will also take care of her at this moment." I'm so happy, nine times out of ten, I can't bear to look at this grandson every day, the child is in the East Palace, if he shuttles back and forth between the two palaces, it will be very inconvenient."

   "..." Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt that his son was getting farther and farther away from him.

He opened his mouth to say something, thought for a while, and looked at the gratified mother, and knew that if he stayed in the East Palace, the mother would feel as uncomfortable as if she had lost her flesh. As for the empress dowager, she would definitely... Difficulty sleeping, whatever.

  Fang Jifan was secretly happy. It seems that the reclamation of Mobei must be done quickly. I don’t know if a lot of corn and potatoes have been planted in the desert. Let Zhang Xin go to Mobei as soon as possible. Zhang Xin is the most reliable.

  After leaving the Zhen Guo Mansion, Fang Jifan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said in his heart, he is really tired. Having a baby is indeed a very urgent matter, so he should go back and have a rest.

  He was just about to leave, no, isn't this his lair? Why did you say goodbye.

  But Zhu Houzhao also came out, and said indignantly: "Obviously looks like Ben Gong, Lao Fang, but you..."

  Fang Jifan rolled his eyes at him: "It's not like that."

   "What?" Zhu Houzhao was about to jump up: "Didn't you see, those eyes, that nose..."

  Fang Jifan took a meaningful look at Zhu Houzhao: "I see, it looks like Your Majesty, because Your Majesty is more powerful. Whoever is more powerful, Your Majesty or the Crown Prince, is who Long Sun looks like. Others, I have no opinion."

   "..."

  Fang Jifan thought of Concubine Fang: "Your Highness, go and see my sister."

  Zhu Houzhao just pulled himself together, and muttered: "What about my son, I am my real father, but it seems that I have nothing to do with him." As he walked, he sighed.

  Fang Concubine rested in the silkworm room. The irony is that the effect of the stinky pockmark soup did not appear until after the operation. Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao entered the silkworm room together while the concubine Fang was asleep.

  Seeing Concubine Fang's appearance, Zhu Houzhao's first reaction was pain.

It really hurts. During the operation, Zhu Houzhao didn’t feel much, but after the operation, he thought of himself on Concubine Fang’s belly, cutting the skin layer by layer, ripping open the stomach, and propping the affected mouth... After that, stitches, stinky pockmarks The effect of the soup, I think...is very limited, but from the beginning to the end, Concubine Fang gritted her teeth and survived.

   It's all... for the kids.

   Thinking about it, if it wasn't for this, Concubine Fang might not be able to survive no matter what.

  Thinking about it this way, Zhu Houzhao really took a closer look at this concubine that his parents forced for him. She was born very well, very young, and younger than herself. It is amazing that a girl of this age can have such faith.

Zhu Houzhao stepped forward, stroked her forehead, smoothed her messy hair, and said: "I always think highly of myself, and think that I am brave, and most of the others are cowards, but this concubine Fang, Her courage really makes me admire, a good saddle matches a good horse, only such a woman is worthy of me."

   "Hey..." Fang Jifan sighed: "Your Highness, show some face."

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Don't interrupt. I just admire Concubine Fang, don't you?"

   Fang Jifan nodded: "If Longsun knows that his mother is so difficult, he must be grateful for his mother in his heart. When Longsun grows up, I, as an uncle, must tell him about this matter in detail."

Concubine Fang seemed to have heard something, and had a slight reaction. Her face was pale, and she lost a lot of blood, making her almost in a state of life and death. She didn't know whether she could survive, but she only knew that she had done countless terrible In this dream, she couldn't wake up, but for some reason, the word "Longsun" sounded in her ears, her eyes opened slightly, and she had some strength. She raised her eyes and saw Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao. She tried her best: "Where is the child... Where is the child?"

  Fang Jifan hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, the child is safe and sound asleep now."

"That's good, that's good..." Concubine Fang showed a somewhat gratified smile, she stared at Fang Jifan and said, "Brother, you have to take good care of him, if anything happens to me, you must take good care of him, brother... "

  ...

   My health is failing, I will take a break during this period, and then I will resume five shifts, and, for the missing chapters, I will recover at a certain period of time.
