Just praise without spending money.

If praise can bring a sharp weapon like a four-wheeled carriage, Kangxi can't wait to give Yinzhen and others a thumbs up every day.

But Yinzhen is not stupid.

He squinted his eyes and stared at Kangxi: "Ama, you shouldn't be so thick-skinned, you think you can take the carriage away with just a thumbs up... right?"

Kang Cheeky Xi blushed slightly.

He clenched his fist and coughed forcefully near his mouth: "Is that kind of person I am?"

Brothers: ...

Although everyone didn't speak, everyone's eyes were filled with big question marks. Aren't you such a person?

Kangxi: ...

If it weren't for so many palace guards watching, he would have to teach these sons a lesson.There was a 'gentle' smile on Kangxi's face, and he hummed softly in a nasal voice, and all the brothers in front of him straightened their backs in an instant, for fear that Khan Ama would think about it and settle accounts later.

Of course Yinzhen didn't care.

Settle accounts after autumn, settle accounts after autumn, at most you beat my ass... He directly stretched out his fingers and rubbed them lightly, and asked cheerfully by the way: "Khan Ama, what do you plan to pay for the design and production of this four-wheeled carriage?" How to pay?"

If you don't sell it to me, you plan to sell it to someone else?

Kangxi raised his eyebrows, but before he could speak, Yinfeng stepped forward and picked up Yinzhen without mentioning it, and covered his mouth with his hand: "Nonsense! Khan Ama, the ministers are happy to do something for the Qing Dynasty." After some contribution, I voluntarily hand over the carriage to Khan Ama."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" Yinzhen struggled.

"Oh?" Kangxi looked at Yinfeng with great interest.

Yinfeng took his time.

He stuffed Yinti into Yinti's hands, then changed the subject and said, "It's just that the Zizhi Tongjian mentioned the world's major affairs, and there is nothing better than rewards and punishments. Rewarding one person makes the world happy, and punishing one person makes the world fear." , if two things are not lost, nature is perfect.” [Note 1]

This means that there is nothing more important in the world than the distinction between rewards and punishments.Needless to say what Yinfeng said, everyone present knew it well, and all the elder brothers stared at Kangxi.

Kangxi was so happy that he laughed out loud.

He glared at Yinfeng angrily: "Is it true that I will lose your reward? It's just that the four-wheeled carriage has not been driven on the road, and I don't know how..."

"My son is willing to give it a try."

Yinzhen managed to break free, and hurriedly raised her little hand and shouted, "My son! My son."

Yinti pressed his head angrily: "What are you going to do, kid? What will you do if something happens then? I'd better let Elder Brother Ben go up and have a try today!"

"My servant disagrees. Eldest brother is a man of gold and gold, so how could he be in danger easily." Guerjia's guard stepped forward and cupped his hands: "My servant is willing to give it a try."

"No! My minister is willing." Chen Tingjing was also eager to try.

"No! Mr. Chen doesn't know martial arts, so I'd better give it a try!" Even Nalan Mingzhu was eager to try.

For a while, the scene became a mess.

Jingui's princes were the first to be excluded, not to mention the delicate and frail Da Fujin. She pouted slightly and looked at this scene sadly. The elder brother looked funny, and stretched out his hand to squeeze her palm: "Don't worry! After the test is successful, are you still afraid that you won't be able to turn later?"

"This is different..." Da Fujin muttered in a low voice.She looked enviously at the courtiers who spoke, wishing she was a man.

This four-wheeled carriage can seat four to six people.

To be on the safe side, Kangxi let Nalan Mingzhu and Chen Tingjing go up, but the other two seats were reserved for two guards with high martial arts skills just in case.

When everything was ready, he asked everyone present to return to Zhuangzi.Kangxi ordered the coachman to drive the carriage outside the door. From slow speed to fast speed, from running straight to sharp turns, he had to check the condition of the axles every time. After more than ten times of testing, he stopped in satisfaction.

Kangxi blushed.

Unable to suppress the restlessness in his heart, he circled the four-wheeled carriage three times, and couldn't help but praise several times: "Good! Good! It's really great!"

Kangxi wanted to praise his sons well.

But when he turned his head and saw Yinzhen who was giggling, the corner of his mouth twitched and he couldn't even utter words of praise.

Kangxi barely pulled himself together.

He looked around, and chose to sneak a group of sons into the study to discuss the terms—no, talk heart-to-heart.

Yinzhen was well-behaved and honest when she entered the house.

There were many outsiders there just now, but now there are no outsiders!According to Khan Ama's temperament, he might be caught and spanked after saying a few words - his eyes rolled around, and he naturally shrank to the back.

Kangxi paid attention to him from the very beginning.

All Yinzhen's little actions fell into Kangxi's eyes, and Kangxi put on a stern face: "Yinzhen, what did you do in the end? Wasn't it you who screamed the loudest and made the most noise just now?"

"..." Yinzhen's eyes darkened.

have a look!This father wanted to settle the score after the autumn before he gave the reward.With tears in his eyes, he moved forward step by step under the sympathetic eyes of his brothers, and finally stood in the first row.

Of course, Kangxi would not be able to kill Yinzhen at this time.

He asked kindly: "Who came up with this idea? Is it you Yinzhen? Or Yinfeng? Yinti? Or...?"

Yinzhen shook her head sincerely: "No."

Kangxi was even more strange now: "Could it be that there are some skilled craftsmen in the towns around here?"

Yinfeng exchanged glances with his brothers.

He took a step forward: "Ama, these four-wheeled carriages were not actually thought up by the ministers, but learned from Zhang Chengzhang."

Now Kangxi was really shocked.

He raised his brows high, and asked in disbelief, "... Zhang Cheng?"

Among the missionaries, Zhang Cheng, who is in his early 30s, is only the youngest generation. The reason why Xu Risheng recommended him is probably to prepare for the next generation.Kangxi took him to the Mulan paddock this time with the intention of intimidating... But now what Yinfeng said made Kangxi's expression change instantly.

What's more, Yinfeng continued to say: "According to Mr. Zhang, horse-drawn carriages have been circulating in their country for hundreds of years, and there are also chartered buses between cities using four-wheeled carriages."

Kangxi: ...

He had seen the countries of these foreign missionaries on a globe, and they could barely be called small and exquisite. Even a province in the Qing Dynasty was not that big, and even smaller countries could be regarded as a prefecture at best.

Such a country actually uses the four-wheeled carriage to such an extent?Before Kangxi could figure it out, Yinreng replied in a deep voice: "Khan Ama, the same is true for glazed products before, and they have become common products in the country of missionaries. They are used on the windows of almost every household... as well as pencils and erasers. , These are things we have never thought about here.”

Are paper-pasted windows better or glazed windows?

Is it better to wipe off the pencil that is used repeatedly, or is it better to use a new writing brush if you write a wrong word?

Up to now, even the carriage has been compared by them.In an instant, Kangxi contacted the traces of the Portuguese fleet entering and exiting various places in Guangdong Province. A stern look flashed across his brows and eyes, and a trace of defense rose faintly in his heart.

Of course, these things have to be done step by step.

Yinfeng felt that he would be satisfied if he could remind Khan Ama.As soon as the topic changed, he tentatively asked: "What kind of reward is Han Ama Ke planning to give Erchen and others?"

Kangxi: ...

He recovered from his thoughts and looked at Yinfeng with a half-smile: "Tell me, what reward do you want?"

You can have whatever you want in the palace.

Khan Ama talked about brothers like this, look at me, let me look at you, one by one, you can't answer what reward you want.

Kangxi thought that the sons had some bad idea in mind.

After working on it for a long time, he couldn't even let out a fart. He tapped his fingers on the table lightly: "I can't tell - I will reward you with 5000 taels of silver?"

The word money is too tacky.

From Yinrong to Yinhu, there was a hint of disdain in his eyes, but Yinzhen raised his hands high and cheered: "I want it!"

The cost of doing business last time was 1000 taels.

But this time, there are a full 5000 taels, and I will pick up a little bit from the tenth and eleventh brothers... Yinzhen counted with his fingers, but his heart was surging.

With Yinzhen in the lead, Yin'e and Yinzhen also chose to ask for money.Such a large amount of silver—hehe!The corner of Kangxi's mouth twitched, and his heart ached for a while.

Although 5000 taels of silver was nothing to him, but thinking that it might not be possible to get it back if it was in the pockets of the three younger brothers... Kangxi focused his attention and turned to his other sons.

Yinzhi had a thought in his mind.

Seeing what Khan Ama looked like, he plucked up the courage to ask Khan Ama to take Concubine Rong with him on his next southern tour or next year to Mulan Paddock.

Kangxi looked at him with a complex expression: "I agree."

The joy on Yinzhi's face could no longer be concealed, and he clenched his fists and gave a small cheer.

Followed by Yinyou and Yinhu.

Finding that Khan Ama is especially talkative today, the two couldn't wait to tell the reward they wanted - their Erniang is just a noble person, and Yinyou and Yinhuda never considered letting the Erniang out of the palace from the beginning , but I hope that Khan Ama can make an order to let Er Niang's family members come to the palace to meet.

Kangxi looked at the filial seventh elder brother and eighth elder brother, and his heart moved slightly.He smiled and nodded: "When I return to the palace... I will make an order."

Yinyou and Yinhu's eyebrows and eyes were completely surprised, and they couldn't help but cheered in a low voice.The only ones who did not speak were Yinreng, Yinti, Yinzhen and Yinqi.

Kangxi turned to look at the four of them.

He raised his eyebrows, quite puzzled: "You haven't figured it out yet?"

"My son—" Yin Zhen spoke with a little hesitation.

Before he could speak, Yinfeng, Yinti, and Yinqi all said in unison: "I intend/want/decided to give this wish to Yinzhen."

Kangxi: ...

The one who was more shocked than Kangxi was Yinzhen, who jumped up from the spot: "It should be my wish for Yinzhen, right!?"

Yinfeng, Yinti and Yinqi: ...? ? ?

A blush flashed across Yinzhen's face, and he faltered: "Didn't I still owe my ninth brother two wishes at that time... this... this..."

After talking about it later, Yinzhen gradually became more confident: "This is considered as one more, that's it."

Well...even if this reason can pass.

Yinfeng, Yinti and Yinqi look at me, but you are not satisfied with me.

The most reason is Yinqi.

He held his head high and put his chest on his hips: "My son is the brother of the ninth brother, and it is only natural that the wish of the son should be given to the ninth brother."

Yinti struck out with a poisonous tongue: "Fifth Brother, do you mean that the rest of us are not brothers?"

Yin Qi: ...

A drop of cold sweat broke out from the back of his head.How can this be said in front of Khan Ama?Yinqi could feel Khan Ama's dissatisfied gaze on him, sobbed and chose 5000 taels of silver.

After Yinqi was KO, Yinti stood up.

He replied complacently: "Khan Ama, as the eldest brother, I have already gone to the court, if I want to have some rewards, I will definitely get it myself, this time I will give the reward to the ninth brother. "

It was the first time Yinfeng discovered that Yinti was so eloquent.

He wiped the corners of his eyes and was quite moved: "Khan Ama, I didn't expect my elder brother to be so considerate to my brother, which made me feel guilty for a while. Ninth brother... I won't give you the reward this time!"

Um?Prince renounced?

A question mark popped up on everyone's forehead.

It was only the next second that Yinfeng turned his gaze to Kangxi.

His voice was up and down, and he said it sincerely: "Ama Khan, elder brother is really sleepy from going to court in Ganxi, so please give this wish of my son to elder brother! Please Ama Khan prepare the palace for elder brother as soon as possible. Let big brother sleep peacefully!"

Kangxi: ...

Yinti: ...

The brothers couldn't help laughing out loud.

What a prince, the second brother, is actually planning to take a drastic drudgery and kick the eldest brother out of the house!
