Da Jin

Chapter 29 Water Palace?

Zhou Fuli also has a certain understanding of Sima Yu, this little wild dog.

When the hair is fried, you have to stroke it along the way.

Otherwise, this guy could really do something outrageous.

Sima Yu was taken aback, "Better than sugar?"

Damn, why are you so excited.

Obviously it was like this last time, hitting him with a club, and then finding an excuse to coax him, he was so stupid that he forgot.

He just swore just now that no matter what, he would rub Zhou Fuli on the ground until he obeyed.

Sima Yu blinked, "Say... let's listen."

Even if he was a little bit dissatisfied, he would not give up. He actually became an enemy. Look at how fat the enemy was. After Sima Luming got the formula of sugar, he was still in full swing.

He was already overwhelmed by the opponent, but now he has to be trampled into the mud.

Zhou Fuli straightened his body, "Your majesty of the Jin Dynasty, why does he think about making money for himself all day long? No matter how good the sugar is, it will only enrich his own pockets. Your Majesty has never thought about making Dajin under your leadership. Get rich."

Sima Yu: "..."

He said it as if it was an easy task, if there was a way to make Da Jin rich, those ministers in court would not have to worry about it every day.

Still making Dajin rich under his leadership?

Hearing it was so exciting that my heart jumped up and down.

This Zhou Fuli, every time he said something, people would forget the mistakes he made before.

Sima Yu felt that he couldn't hold on any longer, and Zhou Fuli immediately grabbed him.

Would you like to listen first?

Sima Yu: "If you don't have candy, you... you have to listen to me in everything from now on."

Zhou Fuli thought to himself, heh, he is the best at picking up dogs.

Zhou Fuli continued, "As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first choose roads. Look, if there is a road for the wool fabrics from the Garment Bureau, they would have been sold to Wei Daqi, let alone the transportation of food and materials. many benefits."

Sima Yu was so angry that he almost laughed, "That's it? Our Dajinjiang is so poor, how can we have money to build roads?"

I thought what a good way to say, Zhou Fuli not only supported the enemy but also fooled him.

Zhou Fuli smiled in his heart, "What kind of money do we need? We already have a good way to advance, but we just haven't used it."

Sima Yu stared at Zhou Fuli and swallowed, "Where is our good road?"

Why didn't he see it.

Zhou Fuli waved to Sima Yu.

Sima Yu leaned over, and immediately felt his ears itch, and Zhou Fuli's voice rang in his ears.

"Isn't the Luo River outside our Luoyang city the best road? As long as we build a few boats and drive along the Luo River, the cities along this road will be connected together."

"Think about it, take our Luoyang special products to sell in other cities, and bring back the special products from other cities..."

"People communicate with each other, the economy increases circulation, and it's not limited to cities, our ships can even sail to other countries to do business, and sell the things of our Dajin people to other countries..."

"To put it short, for example, if the fish and shrimp I raise are transported to Luoyang by the current road, they will probably die before arriving in Luoyang, but if there are boats to go by water, the people of Luoyang can eat fresh fish and shrimp. .”

"For another example, the ducks I raise are about to lay eggs, and the ducklings that hatch from these eggs can be shipped to various places by boat to speed up the eradication of locusts."

The traffic in Dajin is unimaginably poor. For example, from Luoyang to Jinling, he did not imagine COSCO, but Zhou Fuli has been in Luoyang for so many years and has not returned to Jinling once, because the traffic is so bad.

Eating wind and drinking dew on the road is not something to talk about. In many places, horse-drawn carriages are not allowed, and you have to walk on foot.

However, the cost of building roads is really huge, and Dajin couldn't afford it at all, so Zhou Fuli put his idea on the existing road of Luohe River. Such a natural road is so good, but it has not been used.

All they need now is the boat.

There are also boats in Dajin, but they are all wooden boats, they can't travel far, and they can't hold much stuff.

Moreover, once the boat is built, Zhou Fuli can also develop the riverside into a rich and colorful Qinhuai culture, of course it will not be a flower boat.

Think about it, a row of drainage mills, a row of big boats on the Luohe River, that kind of beautiful and prosperous scene makes people yearn for it.

Maybe it can also use this to develop Luoyang into an economic center.

If you want to get rich, build roads first, or waterways.

Zhou Fuli said, "As long as you control the waterway, Sima Luming can't rely on you if he wants to sell the sugar to other places."

"Extend a little bit more, the waterway can make the whole Dajin extend in all directions, what kind of scene will it be?"

"This kind of thing that benefits Dajin is much better than sugar."

Sima Yu's eyes twinkled, and he even licked his lips.

Damn, if what Zhou Fuli said is true, he still has a formula for sugar. Sugar can make Sima Luming rich, but he can make the whole Dajin rich. For His Majesty of Dajin, what can he do? Much more recognizable than this.

Sima Yu asked, "Can we repair such a boat?"

Zhou Fuli nodded, he knew the principle, and together with the group of skilled craftsmen in the Craftsman Division, it must be possible to research it.

When Sima Yu left, the smile on his face never stopped, "Tsk tsk, Zhou Fuli, I will give you whatever you want in the future."

Zhou Fuli thought in his heart, ah, that was not the attitude just now.

Sima Yu was thinking as he walked, he had to find a way to stop Zhou Fuli from swaying left and right.

But how can we make Zhou Fuli steadfastly lean to his side?

After sending Sima Yu away, Zhou Fuli also breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't think that he is going smoothly now, but he is very clear that no matter if he offends Sima Yu or Sima Luming, his good days are coming to an end.

It's just that he doesn't know yet that a certain little wolf dog has come up with a particularly flamboyant way to help him make choices.

Day two.

Zhou Fuli went to Zhiqin Hall very early.

Because the little emperor not only asked two young father-in-laws to guard outside Taifu's mansion, but also sent two outside Sima Luming's mansion.

If he and Sima Luming intend to meet in the future, it is estimated that Sima Yu can kill him immediately.

On the second day, the rewards for providing Da Jin with new crops and increasing grain production also came down.

Zhou Fuli was assigned to Shangshu Province among the three provinces of Shangshu under Zhongshumen.

This is the same as what Sima Yu discussed yesterday. In order to achieve the "road" of Dajin to the world, one must be able to directly control the craftsman to help him study how to build ships. This is not a matter of a day or two, so one must be able to use the craftsman for a long time manage.

Now, Zhou Fuli has two official positions, one is the Taifu, and the other is the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

What Zhou Fuli didn't expect was that besides the original Mo Sinan who was originally in the Ministry of Industry, there were also some students who became officials early because of this credit and were also transferred to the Ministry of Industry.

Sima Yu spent a lot of effort in order to achieve this. If he hadn't made great contributions this time, those prime ministers and assistants would definitely not have easily agreed.

Zhou Fuli said in his heart, this is good, but it will be convenient for future affairs, otherwise he would have to persuade the officials of the Ministry of Industry to cooperate, wasting time.

Now, Sima Yu can be regarded as elated, he can now speak in front of these prime ministers and assistant ministers.

only……

The next day, when the rewards were awarded in the court hall, the queen mother Zhao Xuanying actually participated and sent someone to tell her that someone was missing from the list of rewards.

Sima Yu was dumbfounded, what do you mean?Missed someone?impossible.

But he understood right away, the queen mother also asked people to carry several baskets of cucumbers, loofahs, watermelons, potatoes, and wheat to the palace.

The father-in-law spoke very politely, "These are all planted by the Empress Dowager in the palace. I saw His Majesty introducing these things to the officials yesterday, so I didn't want to disturb them, so I let the young one bring them today."

Sima Yu's face turned dark, it was not clear that this was to share the credit.

Looking at Zhou Fuli, why did the queen mother plant these things?Where did the seeds come from?

Because Sima Yu would never go to Qingning Palace, and no one dared to mention the Queen Mother in front of him, Sima Yu surprisingly didn't know about it.

The officials were also very surprised that the Queen Mother actually participated in this matter?

Zhou Fuli only felt a burning gaze staring at him.

Zhou Fuli thought, the mother asked him for seeds later, can he not give it?He not only has to give, but also has to give in full.

It's just that I didn't expect that when Sima Yu was at his happiest, the Empress Dowager would come out and challenge him. The women in this palace really dare not underestimate him.

In fact, Zhao Xuanying didn't expect that, she just sensed something was wrong with her intuition, and then ordered people to go to Zhou Fuli to ask for seeds, and then she would let people plant whatever Zhou Fuli and the others planted.

I didn't expect to have this effect in the end. If Sima Yu monopolizes the credit for Dajin, it will be quite detrimental to her.

Sima Yu seemed to be floating in the sky when someone poked him down with a pole.

His face was so dark that he looked at the baskets of crops on the temple, none of which grew as well as what they planted, but what could he say?At this time, it is too stingy to say that these are nitpicking.

Zhao Xuanying actually shared part of his credit so abruptly.

Zhou Fuli watched his heart with his eyes, nose and nose, and saw nothing.

When he went to court, Zhou Fuli was blocked.

"Do you have to explain? Where did the Empress Dowager's seed come from? Why didn't I know that you and the Empress Dowager have such a good relationship?"

This Zhou Fuli is swaying too much, look, what are these things, what does the book say?Hong Xing out of the wall?

It is estimated that Daxue Zong knew that he described it like this, and as a teacher, he would feel ashamed.

This is a real scumbag.

Sima Yu thought to himself, it's a good thing he is magnanimous, otherwise everyone would have thought that Zhou Fuli belonged to the other party, and he would have grabbed him and whipped him with a small whip dipped in salt, until his clothes were ripped apart.

Zhou Fuli: "..."

Well, that's embarrassing.

"Tomorrow we will start our "Roads Connecting the World" plan." Zhou Fuli could only change the subject.

Sima Yu stared at Zhou Fuli, "You didn't tell anyone else about this time, did you?"

With a cautious look.

"Zhou Fuli, you must always remember that you are on my side. I will prepare a small leather whip right now. If you dare to join the enemy this time, you must be whipped."

No, no matter what, he had to make Zhou Fuli fully realize this.

As long as you are with him, you can talk about anything and discuss everything. If you join the enemy, he will destroy it with his hands.

Zhou Fuli stroked Sima Yu's hair, and then continued to teach.

This little wild dog also barked fiercely, and became obedient every time he finished brushing his fur.

……

Zhimo stood at the gate of the palace with a basket in his hand. He waited for Zhou Fuli at the gate every day. The guards guarding the palace gate also knew him and would not embarrass him, but it was impossible to let him in.

When Sima Yu left the palace, he saw Zhimo Xiaozhengtai.

Sima Yu left Zhou Fuli in the palace like a thief. He was going to go to the craftsman himself. This time the matter was very important. He had to go to the craftsman to give orders, and he had to listen to Zhou Fuli for everything.

Seeing Zhimo poking his head into the palace, he couldn't help but stop, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Zhimo replied, "The little sage said we would eat cucumbers today, but I have been waiting for a long time, why hasn't the little sage come out yet?"

Sima Yu thought to himself, Zhou Fuli was detained by him for a reason, so why come out so soon.

Said to the guard, "Let him in."

Zhimo was let go, and then started picking cucumbers with a basket.

This little guy is a perfectionist, and he insists on picking cucumbers that are juicy and just the right size.

Unknowingly, I walked to Qingning Palace.

When Zhao Xuanying went out for a walk accompanied by several old mothers, she saw a child picking cucumbers in her field.

Her Qingning Palace is in charge of the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard, so no one dares to come here.

He couldn't help but walked over and asked, "Whose kid are you, why did you come here?"

Zhimo saluted politely, "I'm Zhimo, the little sage's book boy. Our little sage wants to eat cucumbers, so I'll pick some cucumbers back home."

Zhao Xuanying: "..."

what is pat cucumber

Perhaps Zhimo, a big and well-behaved child, is not dangerous, so he couldn't help but say, "What would you do to shoot cucumbers?"

Zhimo nodded, he watched his mother make it several times, and he even made it for the little bench and them.

When passing by the garlic and chili field just now, he also pulled out some condiments and put them in his basket.

Confused, Zhimo actually entered Qingning Palace and started making cucumbers for Zhao Xuanying.

He was also a little confused, not knowing why this happened.

When Zhao Xuanying ate the cucumber, she was also conquered by the taste. She used to pick some small cucumbers to eat from time to time, and found it very crisp, but she never thought that she could eat it like this.

In order to thank Zhimo for taking pictures of cucumbers, Zhao Xuanying specially invited Zhimo to eat watermelon.

"Is it delicious?"

As a result, Zhimo stopped eating after a few mouthfuls, and shook his head, "It's not as delicious as our little sage's, and it's not sweet enough."

This baby is honest.

Zhao Xuanying was taken aback for a moment, she thought it was very delicious, the weather is hot recently, her favorite thing is to eat watermelon.

After Zhimo was sent away, Zhao Xuanying always cared about Zhimo saying that the watermelon she grew was not tasty.

But the child should not tell lies, and called a nanny, "Go outside and pick two big watermelons and come back."

In fact, the watermelons she grew were not as delicious as those grown by others. The watermelons grown by Zhou Fuli's group of students were all grown under his supervision.

When Zhao Xuanying ate the new watermelon, she really stopped talking. She thought they all tasted the same, but the one grown by others was too sweet.

When Sima Yu returned to the palace from the Department of Craftsmanship, he saw Sima Hehua rolling on the ground, crying, with dust rolling all over his body like a rubber ball. It is estimated that there is no need to clean the place today.

"My watermelon was stolen, the two biggest watermelons in my field."

He dragged people to look at his big watermelon every day, but when he went to look today, there were only two stalks that were still dripping.

At that time Sima Hehua started rolling on the ground, he rolled back from the ground, crying so sadly.

Sima Yu's face also darkened, he knew the two big watermelons, they were originally from the field he and Sima Hehua planted together.

He couldn't bear to eat it, it was so pleasing to look at.

So it was stolen?

In the palace, someone dared to steal his watermelon?

Then the two of them caught thieves everywhere with green eyes, and felt suspicious when they saw anyone.

Of course they dare not go to Qingning Palace.

The next day, Zhao Xuanying wanted to eat watermelon again, and yesterday's watermelon was really unforgettable, so she called the old lady to let her go out to pick watermelon and come back.

As a result, the old mammy was embarrassed, "The watermelon we picked yesterday belonged to His Majesty, and His Majesty had a quarrel last night."

Zhao Xuanying: "..."

It's so hard to die, how did you get his.

If this was known, her face would be lost.

She is a dignified queen mother, picking a watermelon in the palace is justified, but...

Zhao Xuanying thought for a while, "Zhiqin Hall also has Zhao's children, I will ask clearly later, and pick the ones from their fields."

It can be done.

The old lady was right, Sima Yu and Sima Hehua almost broke up the palace.

Stealing things in the palace is big or small.

But after searching for a long time, neither of them caught the thief.

Then the two looked at Qingning Palace with green eyes: "Could it be..."

They even asked Longqing Palace, but there was no result, and now only Qingning Palace is left.

Sima Yu glared at Sima Hehua, "Go."

Sima Hehua straightened his body, so he could go as he wanted, and no one could steal his watermelons, which were the two largest watermelons he had grown in a year.

It's just that Sima Hehua ran back trembling before he walked into Qingning Palace with his back straight.

Just now he saw the Empress Dowager holding a sword in one hand, poking a wooden man several times, and then the wooden man's head fell off.

Horrible, he's a kid and he'd be scared to pee.

In the end, the two watermelons also became a headless koan.

In the days that followed, students like Zhou Fuli would bring a basket to Zhiqin Temple every day, and pick some melons and fruits from their field after school every day.

When the watermelon is ripe, I have to take the boss back with a watermelon.

But even so, they couldn't finish it.

Sad people.

Cucumbers and loofahs can be kept as seeds when they are old.

But when the watermelon is too ripe, it will turn sandy and become unpalatable.

They used to cut watermelon into pieces with a knife, but now they eat watermelon with each person holding one and digging with a spoon.

There are also those potatoes and wheat, which I didn't realize when I planted them before, but now that they are harvested, I suddenly realize that they have planted so many.

In the past few days, even the classes of the other university sects have not been attended, and they are all harvesting food, and even the little father-in-law and the little maids in the palace are all mobilized.

As for the extra watermelon, give those old officials door-to-door. It’s not enough to sell them for money, just keep the melon seeds for them.

For a while, eating watermelon became popular in Luoyang Gongxun's family, and they also felt the benefits of this watermelon in the hot summer.

The imperial court also specially planned to set aside land to grow watermelons, which was in the village of Zhou Fuli's other courtyard.

Later, even the village was renamed Watermelon Village, and watermelon became the biggest feature there.

Those potatoes and wheat are also stored away, waiting to be turned into seeds next year to expand cultivation.

It's not over until the work is done.

And Zhou Fuli and Sima Yu were not idle, they ran to the side yard every day.

Jiang Zuosi even built a construction site there for shipbuilding, but it was time-consuming and bumpy to go to and from Luoyang every day.

Another major event happened in Luoyang City. I don’t know when, men carrying burdens and selling “maltose” began to walk from house to house.

sugar?

When everyone found out that it was sweet and sticky, and how many times cheaper than other candies, the whole Luoyang went crazy.

Every family is guarding to buy candy every day.

They couldn't afford it before, but now they can. It's not that they suddenly became rich, but that the price of sugar suddenly reached an acceptable level for them.

Especially the children, who kept running behind the man carrying the burden, it was extremely lively.

Zhou Fuli still met with Sima Luming, but this time Sima Yu was also there.

Right at the gate of the Golden Temple.

Sima Yu had a sullen face, he wanted to see how these two shameless people chatted before.

In front of him, I still don't believe that I can talk about a flower.

Sima Luming looked more open and upright, right at the gate of the Golden Palace, with an open and frank look.

Sima Luming said, "Last time I got the formula of sugar from the teacher, but I forgot to ask the teacher if I need anything?"

Zhou Fuli glanced at Sima Yu, looked at others, and then looked at yourself. You have gained so many benefits, and you never thought of paying back one or two.

Zhou Fuli wanted to say that it would be fine to share some of the profits with him, but he really couldn't open his mouth, hey.

Seeing that Zhou Fuli did not speak, Sima Luming said, "The students see that the teacher often travels between Luoyang and that other courtyard, and the road is bumpy during the period. Why don't you let the students build this road, which is also convenient for the people."

Zhou Fuli was stunned for a moment, the road construction cost not a little bit, even if it was selling sugar, it is impossible to make so much money in a short while.

This Sima Luming is really a big hand.

Perhaps what he values ​​is not only the immediate interests.

Such a person is born like a ruler.

Zhou Fuli thought for a while, "That's fine too."

After all, the formula is his.

Luoyang is actually not far from his other courtyard. The main reason is that the road is too difficult to walk, and the carriage is difficult. If there is a better road, it will not be too late even if you start from the other courtyard to go to court.

After Sima Luming left, Sima Yu said sourly, "I can also help you build the road."

Zhou Fuli asked, "Are you rich?"

Sima Yu's face turned dark, he didn't slap people in the face, he didn't swear at others, "If you give me the formula of sugar, I can afford to build roads."

This baby is still thinking about Tang, so she probably won't have that chance.

Sima Yu thought, Sima Luming is too courteous, he can either rape or steal, the key is that Zhou Fuli seems to like it.

Oh, he is not rare.

Then he sneaked closer to Zhou Fuli, "Zhou Fuli, I actually have a lot of good things in my collection, why don't you go and see what I bought and I'll give you something."

Zhou Fuli glanced at Sima Yu, and wondered if he would be able to say such things when he grew up, when he really settled in that position.

What you say when you are young is not true after all.

Compared with Sima Yu, Sima Luming is obviously much calmer and more sophisticated, but there are too many things that Zhou Fuli can't see through. Facing Sima Luming, Zhou Fuli is like looking at people through a veil. You can only see the most perfect Mr. Pian Pian forever.

And sometimes perfection is the scariest thing, such as himself.

On the other hand, Sima Yu, although his temper was as bad as Er Gouzi's, at least he could feel a little sincerity of youth.

Zhou Fuli shook his head. He knew that it was not enough for Chicheng to hand over his life to the other party just by relying on this.

Now Sima Yu is in the trough of his life, and he has a little dependence on him, but when he gets out of the trough, people will have completely different ideas in different situations.

Zhou Fuli didn't dare to gamble.

It's just that not making a choice may not be a good thing, and you may lose more.

Next, Zhou Fuli, Sima Yu, and his students got busy.

Sima Luming also started to build the road according to his promise.

What Zhou Fuli wanted to build was an iron ship.

The draft is deep, the load is heavy, and the operation is stable.

Dajin's current boat is too light to travel in the river for a long time.

It is said that a broken ship has three thousand nails, and an iron ship needs more iron.

All the documents are in order, but with Sima Yu conveying the news, it is not difficult for the old emperor to pass through.

No one is worried, what can be armed with iron to make a ship.

Many things happened during this period. For example, Zhou Fuli gave them a small bench and a duck for each of them, and asked them to take them home to raise themselves, and their family members could eat the eggs after laying.

The little bench and the others hugged the duck and smiled like a flower.

"We chased ducks and caught locusts, and the Luoyang county government rewarded us with such a large piece of silver, my mother said to keep it for me to marry a wife." Xiaobanseng smiled.

Tie Dan also said, "My sister married Lincun, and the people in Lincun are very happy, because they all know that I was rewarded by the Luoyang county magistrate. My mother told them specifically, and my mother said that they would not Dare to bully my sister."

What's more, after the autumn, all places in the imperial court received a group of ducks from the boss, which can be regarded as an increase in revenue for the national treasury.

People from Daliao also came several times one after another, and each time they came to order thermal clothing.

Now the weather is starting to cool down, and the air is very comfortable.

Sima Yu and Sima Hehua took out their woolen sweaters and put them on again, showing off terribly.

The fish and shrimp in Zhou Fuli's fish pond and shrimp pond have also grown big and fat.

What I have to say is that the locusts they caught with the small bench alone were not enough to feed the fish. In addition to the small bench, they later chased ducks to kill locusts, so they had no time to catch locusts.

Zhou Fuli asked people to start buying locusts at a very low price. In Zhou Fuli's view, he made a lot of money.

A large number of locusts were purchased, and many surrounding villages took action and began to manually catch locusts. They probably never thought that locusts would be sold for money one day.

For the common people, this is also an additional benefit.

Zhou Fuli received as much as he had, and the amount of locusts he needed was very large.

One is to feed the fish and shrimp, and the other is to feed his thousands of ducks at that time.

Because when winter comes, there will be no live locusts.

In places like Dajin, the ducks were returned to the imperial court before winter, and the imperial court sold these ducks to rich families for meat.

For Zhou Fuli's thousands of ducks, he decided to kill some of the male ducks and save the female ducks to lay eggs. In fact, the money for the eggs alone was more than the money needed for feeding the food.

Of course, the locusts are still flying all over the sky now, so there is no need to worry about this.

Zhou Fuli was still drawing blueprints. At this time, a group of children on the small bench rushed over with a basket.

"Little saint, little saint..."

Zhou Fuli was taken aback, what's the matter?

As a result, a group of children handed the basket in front of Zhou Fuli, "Ducks and ducks have laid eggs, lots and lots of eggs."

"Except for the hay on the duck pen, we picked up a lot by the river."

Zhou Fuli: "..."

It seems that these children have one more thing to do in the future, helping to pick up duck eggs.

Baskets of duck eggs look very nice.

Zhou Fuli waved his hand, "Today we eat omelets."

Thick egg cakes are especially suitable for duck eggs.

A group of children all smiled.

Especially when they ate the omelette, each child's eyes widened.

The small bench held an omelet in one hand, "It's... really delicious."

It is glutinous and fragrant after a bite.

Zhou Fuli thought, no, even in modern times, this omelet is extremely popular.

A bunch of kids eat like little squirrels.

When Sima Yu came, he saw this scene.

Zhou Fuli rolled his eyes and invited Sima Yu to eat omelets.

His ducks have started to lay eggs, and once they lay eggs, they can't stop. These ducks that have been eating locusts are probably very good at laying, even if he and these children can't finish eating every day.

He has to sell his duck eggs to Sima Yu. Sima Yu's children's fund needs eggs, and they can also be sold to the imperial court. When spring comes, they will be hatched into ducks, which will be another army to exterminate locusts.

Sima Yu looked at the eggs in the basket while eating the omelette, "Why are these duck eggs so big?"

The little bench stuffed its mouth, "Yes, we raised it."

Zhou Fuli said, "Not bad, I sold it to you at a cheaper price, and I will use the money to buy locusts."

Although he bought locusts cheaply, but the quantity was large, and he spent a lot of money. Now is the time to reap the benefits.

These ducks grew up eating locusts, and it cost nothing at all. Now they are laying eggs. These eggs are not cheap, and Zhou Fuli's duck eggs are as big as two others.

Sima Yu thought for a while, "Sell it to the imperial court. I'll have someone collect it when I go back. The ducks hatched from your eggs grow fat, so it's a waste to eat them like this."

Zhou Fuli's ducks are now legends, because it is impossible for other people to raise them to grow so big. Everyone around Luoyang knows that if the ducks hatched from these duck eggs, they will probably rush to buy them.

Zhou Fuli glanced at Sima Yu, and he could think of this level, not bad.

He said, "Just let them connect with Uncle Zhang."

In fact, he is not good at negotiating prices with the court, so Uncle Zhang is different.

Zhou Fuli was no longer worried about where the duck eggs were going. He was naturally happy and asked, "Why are you here?"

"The shipyard has built the frame of the ship according to your drawings. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Sima Yu now spends more time in the shipyard by the river than Zhou Fuli.

Zhou Fuli thought about it, he had to go and see.

When they left, Sima Yu even took an omelette and ate it as they walked, not paying attention.

When he came to the shipyard, Zhou Fuli could see the huge monster in the river.

They all went into the water.

Although it has not been covered yet, it still makes people feel the heaviness in it.

In fact, the people in the Craftsmanship Division were even more excited than Zhou Fuli, and they wanted to build the boat sooner.

Don't underestimate the craftsmen's pursuit of these things.

"Never thought that iron can float on water."

"It's the first time I've seen such a big ship. We actually built it by ourselves. I didn't dare to think about it before."

"Look at this deck, there are more than a dozen people standing here."

"It didn't shake at all in the river water. Those boats used to shake uncomfortably when standing on it."

From a distance, people from the craftsman department could be heard discussing excitedly.

Zhou Fuli walked over, "Has the hull been painted with tung oil?"

"According to your request, I painted two layers, with a layer of green paint in between."

Zhou Fuli ordered a little, so as to ensure that the boat can be used for a longer time. Of course, how long it will be used depends on the maintenance in the middle.

Zhou Fuli and Sima Yu walked onto the deck through the ladder.

Sima Yu was also a little unbelievable, even though he saw it in the morning.

Such a behemoth is actually just a ship, an iron ship floating on the water.

Even if he told others, no one would believe him.

On the deck, Mo Sinan and the others are also there. They are helping Zhou Fuli's supervisor, and they are the ones who pass information back and forth when there is a problem.

There are also many guards standing on the shore. They are not protecting Sima Yu, but are stationed here to protect the shipyard. The shipbuilding technology cannot be passed on.

Leading the team were Song Ci and Wei Chu.

Zhou Fuli began to check the various facilities one by one, feeling the smoothness.

The people from the Craftsmanship Department followed. These processes and parts were polished again and again by them, and they were made through precise calculations. If there is a problem, they know it best.

"It can be covered," Zhou Fuli said.

The ship has two floors, one for the cargo hold and one for the living quarters.

Its main function is to transport cargo. Of course, when docked, this deck and those rooms are definitely a unique and comfortable playground.

Zhou Fuli thought in his heart, even if he didn't pull the goods, he could make it popular.

The happiest thing is the people of the craftsman, because as long as the hull is successful, the upper layer will be simple.

Zhou Fuli walked towards Sima Yu who was groping along the side of the boat, "Have the helm and the sailor been found?"

Sima Yu nodded, "I've found them a long time ago, and I've given them the operating instructions you gave, and I'm studying them every day and night now."

Zhou Fuli thought, this is good.

Then out of the shipyard began to walk upstream.

Now that he was here, he also went to see his fish ponds and shrimp ponds.

Now it is full of fat and big prawns. If you feed locust powder every day, it will be strange if it is not fat.

The road here is difficult for them, and if they salvage it and send it to Luoyang, they will probably die and not be fresh. Zhou Fuli is waiting for the ship to be built. These fish and shrimp are the first batch of experimental cargo to sail.

The water in the pool is quite clear, and there are densely packed fish and shrimp in it.

It was the first time Sima Yu had seen a fish raised like this, and he doubted that he could catch it even if he stretched out his hand.

Zhou Fuli thought, next year he can breed more species and open more ponds, tsk tsk, the fishery has to keep up.

At that time, there will be rows of fish ponds by the river, rows of waterwheels in the river, and several large ships docking downstream, which will be awesome.

Adding a cover on the boat, although it is easier to say, still got into the winter.

Winter is the time when everything is sleeping, and the vegetables in the field cannot grow.

Now whether it is a village or Luoyang, there are only a few dishes that can be eaten.

But it's like this every year, everyone is used to it, at least this year's disaster year is unexpectedly good.

When Zhou Fuli came to the shipyard again, Sima Yu was already waiting for him on the ship.

It was a little cold on the deck, but Sima Yu didn't feel it at all.

The covered boat is now like a monster, a huge water monster, and he is like standing on the back of the water monster.

No matter how it feels, there is a natural high-spirited feeling.

Zhou Fuli walked up, and the wind was blowing, and he was a little surprised that Sima Yu could bear it.

Before Sima Yu could speak, Zhou Fuli said, "Let's talk in the cabin."

As soon as you enter the boat cabin, the design looks like a small food bar with a counter and fixed tables and stools.

Sima Yu was standing on the deck patronizingly, and it was the first time he came in, so he couldn't help being stunned, how could it be like this?

This is simply a beautiful snack shop.

Is there a canteen on board?Zhou Fuli's brain is so long.

Sima Yu was dazzled by the sight.

Then continue to walk forward, there is an aisle, and then see Zhou Fuli push open the door next to the aisle.

Sima Yu: "..."

This is a room.

In other words, there are rooms behind such doors on both sides of the aisle?

Where the hell is a ship, this
