How to Be a Male Queen
Chapter 107: February 2 Iron Ore
【Little son is a wishing tree】
While eating, Xiao Shizi turned back into a human form.
Just now, the lion opened his mouth and ordered a table of dishes, and there was nothing missing. Qu Shui even secretly added two dishes. The guy who was angry because he was poured with ginger water just now was alive and kicking in the blink of an eye.
——Hey, a guy with a simple brain circuit is so easy to satisfy!
The little prince who was recovering heartlessly greeted His Highness King Ping, "Let's eat together!"
His Highness Prince Ping was reading the letter, when he heard Xiao Shizi speak proactively, he immediately put down the letter, and sat next to Xiao Shizi with the corners of his mouth raised.
Jian Hao wondered, "Why don't you sit across from each other today?"
His Highness King Ping picked up the silver chopsticks and said without changing his face: "This way we can get closer to Haohao."
Jian Xiaoshi frowned, pinched His Highness Prince Ping's face with his greasy paws, and muttered, "You seem fake today."
His Royal Highness Prince Ping's face was stained with oil, showing a ferocious expression, coupled with the extremely low noise, "Did Haohao finally see it? I am an evil ghost who specializes in eating wolf cubs..."
Jian Xiaoshizi suddenly showed an expression of seeing a ghost - His Royal Highness Ping Wang today must be a fake!
His Highness King Ping held Xiao Shizi into his arms, his chest shook, and he let out a deep laugh.
Xiaoshizi: ...
——Unexpectedly, you are such a prince!
Xiao Shizi turned surprise into motivation, and swallowed a table of meat, vegetable, vegetable, soup, and water into his stomach with a click, deliberately leaving only two bowls of soup for His Highness King Ping, euphemistically saying: Ghosts like to drink soup.
His Royal Highness King Ping pampered him, even though he was hungry, he still enjoyed it.
After eating, Xiao Shizi lay on the soft couch, rubbed his bulging belly, and secretly looked at His Highness Ping Wang.
Qin Yuan had already discovered his little trick, but he didn't expose it.
In order not to let Xiaoshizi blame himself, His Royal Highness Ping Wang patted his head and said: "I will go to a country gentleman's house to have a banquet later, it is my grandfather's old friend, it is convenient to eat less at this time .”
Only then did Xiao Shizi heave a sigh of relief, and turned around and muttered, "You didn't say it earlier."
His Royal Highness Ping patted his forehead, and handed him a letter, "The An family boy sent someone to send it."
"Give me the little yogurt?" Xiao Shizi got up from the couch and couldn't wait to take it apart.
He squeezed the envelope and shook it, and three stacks of letter paper fell on the couch. Xiao Shizi suddenly smiled, "I know there is more than one—huh? Who else wrote to me besides Xiaolizi? Is it the prince's cousin?"
Jian Hao opened it suspiciously, and the first thin letter was written by An Muxi without even thinking about it. This guy usually doesn't talk much, but he writes letters even more.
The second letter was written by Li Shu, five pages were profusely written, Jian Hao happily put it aside, planning to read it later.
The last letter was neither thin nor thick, with a total of three pages, signed "Brother, Yu".
His Royal Highness Ping Wang said: "The letter was sent by Uncle Qi Wang, so it is naturally much faster than ordinary post stations. Jian Yu may have something urgent to discuss with you."
Upon hearing this, Jian Hao quickly turned back to the first page and read it quickly.
His Highness King Ping purposely sat a little far away, not intending to pry into the private affairs between their brothers.
Xiao Shizi didn't have such a taboo, and reported while reading, "My brother said that he would come to Lingnan to hunt birds and add a dowry gift for Jing and his sister-in-law. He asked me to tell you about it."
——Ever since Jian Yu tried his best to protect each other at the queen's birthday banquet last time, Jian Hao never called him by his name directly.
"What do Haohao think?" His Highness Prince Ping asked lightly.
Jian Hao put down the letter, wrinkled his face and thought for a while, finally shook his head, "I don't think this kind of thing is reliable."
Prince Ping became interested, "How do you say that?"
Xiao Shizi came up to him and said with a serious face: "Think about it, Lingnan is such a big place, how many birds can there be if you add up all the birds? People in the capital take the lead, and they can't guarantee the rich people in other places. They will also follow suit, and by then they will have caught all the birds in Lingnan?"
While thinking about the teacher's words in the environmental protection class, Jian Xiaoshizi said with his own understanding:
"If there are no birds, the insects on the trees will not be caught by birds, and these trees will probably be eaten to death by insects; the insects in the field will not be caught by birds, and the crops will not live long; and those animals that eat birds will have no food. I have to die too... I don’t know what Lingnan will look like by then.”
Although such inferences were not rigorous, His Highness Prince Ping clearly understood the deep meaning of his words, and his expression became serious.
As the actual person in power in Lingnan, he thought more about it than Jian Hao.
Once a large number of outsiders, especially powerful outsiders, flood into Lingnan, it will inevitably disturb the local people. These people range from masters to slaves, and they are used to rich clothes and fine food. The consumption of food alone is very important for the local people. It is a great burden.
Xiao Shizi shook Qin Yuan's arm, and said earnestly: "I'll write back to my brother right away, telling him not to come to Lingnan, and you have to drive back those who have already come!"
His Royal Highness King Ping nodded, and replied decisively: "Okay."
Jian Hao heaved a sigh of relief, and then opened the letters from the two friends.
In An Muxi's letter, he mentioned the climate and scenery of Lingnan, properly expressed his concern for Xiao Shizi, and told him to pay attention to diet and dressing. The writing was concise and careful, which was indeed the style of this friend.
Li Shu mentioned the matter of hunting birds in a playful tone, and by the way, gave a detailed description of Qin Chu's behavior of showing off in the capital wearing colorful feather coats, and then expressed his criticism of the extravagant comparisons among the upper class in a long space And contempt.
Jian Hao couldn't quite understand the following content, so His Royal Highness Ping Wang explained while reading.
Thinking of Qin Chu's big lantern with bird feathers showing off everywhere, Xiao Shizi really wanted to let the little wolf cub out and let her bite him into a bald man!
His Highness King Ping closed the letter and said in a deep voice, "This is the root cause."
Xiao Shizi nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's all because of Qin Chu's big lantern. It's okay for her to be smug, why did she bring someone else with her?"
His Royal Highness King Ping coughed lightly. He was referring to the extravagance of the capital that Li Shu mentioned at the end... He couldn't help shaking his head and chuckling. It seems that Haohao really hates the little princess of Xianwang's family.
Jian Xiaoshizi was still aggrieved, "No, I have to find a way, so I can't let her be so proud!"
His Royal Highness King Ping nodded, silently making mental preparations to clean up the mess for Xiaoshizi.
At this moment, he thought it was just a battle of spirits among the young boys, but he never expected that Xiao Shizi's "method" would avoid an ecological crisis without bloodshed.
***
In the following days, for Xiao Shizi, it was all about eating, drinking, and playing around, and even the little wolf cubs and cats also had fun with him.
His Highness King Ping first took them to the Yaoxian Temple to meet their mother and two aunts.
Xiao Shizi kowtowed solemnly to the three statues, put on three sticks of incense, and silently declared his family in his heart.
Walking out of the temple gate, His Highness Prince Ping deliberately asked: "What did Haohao say to mother just now?"
The corner of Jian Xiaoshi's mouth curled up triumphantly, "I won't tell you!"
Needless to say, His Royal Highness King Ping can make a good guess just by looking at his happy appearance.
After that, it is to look around for food.
If Xiao Shizi hadn't been born with a wolf nose, Qin Yuan would not have known that there are so many delicious wild animals in Gaozhou.
Xiao Shizi's favorite is a kind of lychee, because it just ripens in March, so the locals call it "March Red".
This kind of lychee was big and sweet, and he picked the ripe one directly from the tree, peeled it and threw it into his mouth, which was a hundred times better than the so-called "directly delivered by air" he ate in modern times.
Xiao Shizi eats a big plate every day.
His Royal Highness Ping Wang was afraid that he would get wet if he ate too much, so he peeled it off for him without complaint, dipped it in salt and fed it to him—it can be said that the service was very good.
Xiao Shizi only needs to raise his feet and puff his cheeks, and move his teeth to chew.
For a whole month, the couple's life was quite nourishing.
This is a pain for Haiyan and the others.
The important matters that should have been handled by His Royal Highness Prince Ping himself fell on their shoulders. The brothers watched bitterly every day to build ships, bows and crossbows, train the navy, and set up bows and crossbow camps.
They would bite the bullet and disturb His Royal Highness Prince Ping only when they encountered matters that they could not decide on their own.
For example, at this time.
"Now that all the hulls have been constructed, as long as the propellers are installed, it can be launched for sea trials." Haiyan replied respectfully.
His Royal Highness King Ping nodded, and asked, "Can the materials for the propeller be prepared?"
Hearing this, Haiyan immediately grimaced, "I prepared it at first, but I didn't expect that the bow and crossbow workshop was used more than expected, so I tightened up that side first, and the propeller was shortened."
Gu Feibai followed closely to complain, "That's not enough! The capital may have sensed something, but the news has suddenly picked up recently, and the companies I used to cooperate with all changed their minds temporarily, which made me burnt out - I'm convinced, It’s okay for the brothers to go into battle and kill the enemy, it’s really not the stuff for this job!”
Haiyan nodded repeatedly, and couldn't agree more.
Gu Feibai hugged the sword, wondering: "Speaking of which, a certain person manages such a large mine, why don't you see him so busy?"
Haiyan smiled, "Otherwise he can catch up with his wife, but you can't!"
Gu Feibai was not convinced, "Aren't you—"
Haiyan raised his eyebrows, "I already have it."
Gu Feibai glanced at He Qing, and snorted disdainfully: "I've been chasing him for more than ten years, but I still haven't enlightened anyone, how dare you say that?"
Haiyan pointed to his face.
Gu Fei rolled his big eyes.
His Highness Prince Ping let them bicker and thought to himself.
There is only one small iron mine in Lingnan, which they have hollowed out some time ago.The northwest is rich in mineral resources, but transportation is troublesome.
He was silent for a moment, and said: "It's just a small start now, and it will be used more in the future. The supply of pig iron must not be exhausted. The current plan is to find more ore veins in Lingnan as soon as possible."
Haiyan put away his playful look, bowed and said, "My subordinates have dispatched a lot of good prospectors, and there must be results in a few days - now, it depends on whether the heavens will give us this opportunity."
His Royal Highness King Ping nodded without saying much.
Jian Xiaoshizi sat cross-legged on the couch, scratching his fingers and wondering what he was thinking.
Gu Feibai looked at his leisurely appearance, and suddenly thought of all the "coincidences" when he was reading with the prince, his eyes lit up.
He straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Xiao Shizi seriously, and muttered something, "Second master, everyone said that you are a 'possessed by the god of luck', please bless us Let’s dig a big iron mine tomorrow!”
Xiao Shizi was stunned, biting his lip and looking at him.
His Highness Prince Ping frowned, and a certain image involuntarily popped up in his mind.
Xiao Shizi seemed to have made up his mind, and said with a smile: "Okay, I will fulfill your wish."
While eating, Xiao Shizi turned back into a human form.
Just now, the lion opened his mouth and ordered a table of dishes, and there was nothing missing. Qu Shui even secretly added two dishes. The guy who was angry because he was poured with ginger water just now was alive and kicking in the blink of an eye.
