"Your Majesty, Mr. Song is here."

"Let him in."

The box door was pushed open, and Song Jue walked in: "Your Majesty, brother-in-law, why are Jin Han and Xiao Yu here?"

"They happened to come over to watch the fun, so I let them come over and sit down and chat." The emperor laughed.

"Are you here to see foreigners?" Song Jue smiled and pulled up a stool to sit down. "Xiaoyu has never wanted to see the emperor, and felt too much pressure. Why did the emperor drag Xiaoyu here?"

"It's not that I haven't met before. Anyway, sooner or later we will know our identities. I happened to meet today, so I called the two of them over to have a chat." The emperor smiled casually, and it was not on purpose. It was just a coincidence that he let the two meet. come over.

"That's interesting, but I'm afraid that Xiaoyu will find a way to escape later." Song Jue laughed.

"How do you say that?" the emperor asked curiously.

"The minister went to Jin Han to discuss going to sea before, and Xiao Yu was afraid that he had heard too much, so he ran away quietly. A few days ago, we had a family dinner at the dealer's house, and my father and brother-in-law chatted for a while, and Xiao Yu was also a little restless. It was still Jin Han. Take the initiative to take people away, today is even bigger, with the status of the emperor and brother-in-law, I am afraid that Xiaoyu will run away again," Song Jue teased and looked at Lu Siyu, "Xiaoyu, you will not run away again later, right? "

"Uncle—" Lu Siyu whispered.

"Why, I'm not right?" Song Jue smiled, "Don't worry, we won't let you know what you shouldn't know, and you don't have to worry about hearing what you shouldn't hear. Besides, Your Majesty It will prove that the emperor trusts you if you say some important things that are not rumored in front of you."

"That's not it," the emperor chimed in, "A manly man, what does it look like to cower? You have been with Jin Han and Song Jue for a long time, so can't you learn more about their cheekiness?"

"Your Majesty, I'm doing business for you. How can you do business without thick skin?" Song Jue retorted.

"Isn't I praising you? Can't you hear it?" The emperor laughed.

"I really can't tell," Song Jue shook his head, "Thick-skinned is not a good word."

"Didn't you say that you can't do business without a thick skin?" The emperor looked at Song Jue and teased with a smile.

"How can this be the same? Of course I have to be thick-skinned when doing business, but can this matter be publicized? Wouldn't it be embarrassing for the emperor to say it?" Song Jue kicked the ball back with a smile.

"I was deceived by you when I was young." The emperor shook his head helplessly, but he kept smiling. Obviously, this kind of thing happened not once or twice, and he didn't care about Song Jue's attitude. Instead, he enjoyed it very much. , "I heard that Song Chen was deceived by you many times?"

"Isn't it because that kid is too stupid, he will become smarter if he is cheated a few more times." Song Jue said with a smile. With such an attitude, it is obvious that he has cheated his son quite a lot.

Lu Siyu listened, and probably understood why Song Chen was a shy child in front of him, but he still liked Song Jue. It was probably because he was cheated by Song Jue too many times since he was a child. The majesty of Song Jue's father had long since disappeared No, don't blame him or anyone.

"Bring Song Chen over next time, I haven't seen him for a long time." The emperor smiled.

"Alright, but that kid Song Chen is always playing with Yunyun and Lele recently, and he seems to be very busy all the time," Song Jue said, looking at Lu Siyu, "Xiaoyu, you know that Xiaochen and your two younger brothers are here What are you doing?"

"Uncle—can you have some snacks?" Even with the emperor present, Lu Siyu couldn't help complaining.

"What's wrong?" Song Jue was at a loss.

"Recently, Xiaochen has been supervising Yunyun and Lele's studies, and occasionally being the teacher of the two children, and he has worked a lot harder than before." Zhuang Jinhan said from the side, these things are natural for him who often goes to Lu's house I know everything clearly.

"Really? That kid is so stupid, how can he still be a teacher?" Song Jue obviously didn't believe Zhuang Jinhan's words.

"It's true, Xiaochen is very nice and takes good care of Yunyun and Lele. With Xiaochen here, I feel a lot more relaxed." Lu Siyu said, Song Chen always comes to their house recently, and it's almost time to rest at night. Then he was taken back by the servants of Song Jue's family.

After Lu Siyu knew that they had been studying, he didn't say anything more, but occasionally taught some math problems and some simple physics knowledge that didn't belong to this era.

Because the number of times is small, and step by step, the three children did not doubt anything, and what they learned at this time is relatively complicated. The gentleman's six arts are not only about six things, but they are only taught a little, and no one will doubt anything. As for whether the three children will use it reasonably in the future, it depends on them.

"It seems that I really don't understand this son more and more." Song Jue said with emotion.

"Uncle is too busy." Lu Siyu said seriously, this is not an excuse, but Song Jue is really busy.

"Yeah, I'm really too busy," Song Jue said with emotion, and suddenly looked at the emperor, "Your majesty..."

"Don't talk about it." Before Song Jue could finish speaking, the emperor said the words of refusal.

"I'm afraid I have to hand over the construction of the road to the people from the Ministry of Industry. If I take action without authorization, I'm afraid it will be a topic of discussion." Song Jue didn't say any more, but changed the topic.

"It's really inconvenient for you to intervene in this matter. I will discuss the road construction directly with the people from the Ministry of Industry, but I'm afraid I still need your help for the material problem." With people, you can take it easy."

"It's easier to find someone capable of being an official, but it's not easy to find someone capable of doing business." Song Jue shook his head. He knew the embarrassment of the emperor very well, so he didn't force it. It's just that finding someone to share the burden is easier said than done. It's not that simple.

"That's right. In the final analysis, I still don't have anyone who can be trusted or used." The emperor shook his head helplessly.

"From ancient times to the present, agriculture has been emphasized and business has been suppressed. Although our dynasty has opened up business and the status of businessmen has been greatly improved, many people still feel that farming is not as safe as farming. Those farmers are not completely ignorant, but they just don't have the courage to come out." Song Song Jue sighed.

"Only when we let them know that doing business can make money, will someone come out." Lu Siyu said.

"What does Xiaoyu mean?" Song Jue asked.

"My brother-in-law feels that many farmers are reluctant to come out and feel that farming is safe because they think they only know how to farm. But if we let them know that they have the ability to do business and can make money by doing business, some people will definitely be willing to do business, such as Uncle and Uncle, as long as they find a profitable business, they can still do their best." Lu Siyu said.

He still remembers that when he just crossed over, his uncles and uncles thought that selling charcoal was not a good business, as if they were trying to make money, but gradually, he also changed his mind, thinking that buying and selling is all about your feelings. I hope that when I started the tofu business later, I was able to handle it with ease, which proves that people in this era still have great potential.

"That's what I said, but it's not easy to do. In fact, it's not that I haven't tried to guide them to do business before, but they all ended in failure." Song Jue shook his head, apparently such an idea is not unheard of.

"It used to be the past, and now is the present," Lu Siyu said. "In the past, many people didn't have enough to eat and didn't wear warm clothes. They didn't want to give up their fields to do business. But it's different now. Since sweet potatoes After these things are planted, many people have spare time, and in this case, they will also think about starting some small businesses that can make money."

"It seems to be true." Song Jue frowned and nodded slightly.

"Does uncle feel that business is easier now than before?" Lu Siyu asked.

"Yes, yes, why didn't I think of that," Song Jue clapped his hands, "Nowadays, many people have spare money at home, and the price of sweet potatoes is much cheaper than rice, so they don't need to save money to buy food, so I am also willing to use the remaining money elsewhere, how can the business not be good!"

"Yes, in fact, now is not the best time," Lu Siyu said, "The common people are most concerned about the issue of food and clothing. This year, sweet potatoes are the most variety, and many people will get tired of it, but when corn and Potatoes began to be planted in large quantities, and there will be more varieties of food that people can eat, and corn can also be used to extract corn oil. Coupled with the spread of cotton, the problems of clothing and keeping warm will be solved. In this case, ordinary people will start Think about other issues, and the business will be better."

This is why Lu Siyu is so focused on promoting sweet potatoes and cotton. He has thought about this issue more than once. He hopes that this country can quickly solve the problem of food and clothing, so that it can make further progress.

It's just that agriculture can't be done overnight. It has to be done year after year, season by season. No matter how anxious he is, there is no way for these crops to mature and spread across the country in a short period of time.

But it will definitely get better every year.

"Xiao Yu, you really don't want to help me?" Song Jue asked again.

"Uncle—" Lu Siyu was helpless.

"That's all right, anyway, sooner or later, isn't it just a test to be a scholar, it takes so much trouble," Song Jue muttered, and then looked at the emperor at the side, "Your Majesty, or you can just choose Xiao Yu as a scholar Well, then he can help the minister."

"I only ordered one armor." The emperor looked at Song Jue.

"Oh, it seems that I will continue to be busy," Song Jue shook his head helplessly, "I almost forgot the business, the emperor came out of the palace this time for those foreigners?"

"The palace is so boring, go out for a walk, and take a look at the foreigners, but I see that there are many people around there, have you ever found out what these foreigners brought over?" The emperor asked proactively. The things in the hands of those foreigners are also somewhat interesting.

"I haven't found out yet. Those foreigners are a little strict about their things, saying that they must see the emperor before they can find out." Song Jue replied, apparently already checked the matter.

"Heh—playing mysteries." The emperor sneered, got up and stood at the window, looking at the restaurant not far away, "Let them hang out for a few more days, just say that I am busy with business and have no time to receive them, let's see what tricks they can play Come."

"It's just a few foreigners, so there is no need for the emperor to receive them in person." Song Jue said, obviously dissatisfied with those foreigners who wanted to see the emperor.

"Anyway, they have nothing to do, they have come from a long distance, so I can show some face." The emperor laughed.

Give them some face to make them play, Lu Siyu complained silently in his heart, but this attitude also made him very satisfied, if any foreigner came, they would have to spend a lot of time, and the emperor would personally receive them, the face of a foreigner is too good old?
