Forced to farm for the princess

Wei Ruojin's eyes reflected the dazzling light, and his eyes were filled with joy, "Then what are you waiting for?" After finishing speaking, he changed hands to hold the lamp, and held Lin Heng's left hand with his free right hand, and walked towards him with a smile. walk down the street.

Lin Heng looked down at the two holding hands, and couldn't help using some strength, "There are many people here, don't get separated."

Wei Ruojin responded, and happily ran to guess the lamp fan. It was rare for Lin Heng to see such a childish side of him. He followed behind, watching Wei Ruojin happily run to guess the lamp fan.It's not difficult for lamp fans. If you guess two correctly, you will win two bird lamps and leave.

"You give me a lotus lantern, and I give you a bird lantern, just right." Wei Ruojin looked up at Lin Heng.

"I made this lotus lantern."

"I still won the bird lamp."

"Then... is it even?" Lin Heng smiled.

Wei Ruojin turned around, "Let's go shopping again." He said he was out to play, but in fact, he still put part of his mind on the small stalls on the street. The more stalls on the street, the more varieties they sell. It also shows that the lives of the people here are better.

In the evening, Wei Ruojin had a great time, and when he returned to the palace, it was already past his usual bedtime, so he quickly washed and lay down.

After having breakfast the next day, many scholars gathered at the entrance of the temporary venue. Fortunately, Wei Ruojin had arranged everything before going to play. Every time you hand in a post, you will get a number Each person sits according to the number plate.

Sitting in such an open-air place at this season is still a little cold, Wei Ruojin and Lin Heng are sitting in the middle and back row, looking at these people, they don't seem to care at all.Anyway, he was holding the hand warmer, leaning against Lin Heng tightly, and said in a low voice: "After two years, I will move it to a warmer time. The weather is really terrible."

Lin Heng just nodded and smiled, he knew that Wei Ruojin must not have thought too much at the time, it was rare that he suddenly thought of it, and he had someone to help him with the work, he did not expect it to happen like this.When the weather gets warmer, it has nothing to do with him. After all, A Jin may not have time to come to this event in two years.

The people who sat in greeted each other. It seemed that many people knew each other, but there were still a few people who had a good relationship. With just these people, Wei Ruojin saw a chain of contempt in it.

"What's going on?" Wei Ruojin approached Lin Heng and asked in a low voice.

Lin Heng shook his head, he was not quite clear.It happened that Qin Chong brought people over, and sat down after saluting to them, and said: "This is my junior brother, named Su Heng."

"Su Heng met... the two sons."

Qin Chong said again: "Su Heng has been in the south of the Yangtze River. The teacher refused to accept him, but he never let go of his homework. This time, the teacher asked him if he wanted to come to the northwest."

Su Heng pursed his lips and smiled.

Wei Ruojin nodded, she understood that this is Mr. Du's real but unknown student.

"None of the descendants here are descendants, more are offshoots, but they are closer to the main sect. And even if there are descendants, they are from some rich family." Su Heng looked around and said.

No wonder Wei Ruojin sees the chain of contempt here, which is also interesting. They are all a group of bastards who cannot inherit the family property, and there is no distinction between high and low.

Last night, Wei Ruojin saw that there were quite a lot of people playing, but today he only took half of the seats, which was much less than Wei Ruojin imagined. This is the invitation card sent by Mr. Du himself. Posts can not get in front of the owner.

As soon as Du Ming took the stage, the audience was silent. It seemed that many people knew the old gentleman. Even if they didn't, they would realize that they should stop talking when they saw others quiet down.

"Old man Du Ming is the organizer of this gathering. The weather is still cold, so everyone can drink some tea to keep warm. The next meeting will be in April next year."

Just as Wei Ruojin was about to speak, Qin Chong hurriedly said, "Teacher thinks that once every three years is too slow, it is better to once a year. Although it is more complicated, the teacher has chatted with many small vendors these days, and I heard that they can make money these days." A little money."

Well, Mr. Du said once a year, so Wei Ruojin didn't say anything else, it was all about promoting consumption anyway.The loudspeaker doesn't look that bad now, so why don't you think about asking Xiang Yi to study how to make it more perfect another day.

When Wei Ruojin turned his attention to the stage, he happened to see Mr. Du standing aside. There was a new person on the stage. After a little scrutiny, he knew that the clothes on that person were of great value.

Standing on the stage, the man hummed twice into the loudspeaker, held it in his hand and looked at it curiously, followed Du Ming's example, put it to his mouth, took out a piece of paper, and said, "I'll never give up. Jiang Wangzhen."

Wei Ruojin thought he would say a few more words, but ended up reading what was written on the paper.As for the article, it can only be said to be quite satisfactory, and there is nothing outstanding.

Wei Ruojin listened to it several times in a row, and her elation faded. She saw that Mr. Du's face was getting darker and darker. He must be dissatisfied with the people who came. People don't want to lose face like this; I didn't expect that these people only hit with an attitude of not being offended, whatever!

"Let's go, Duke Wen is piled up like a mountain." Lin Heng said.

Wei Ruojin also nodded, and the two secretly prepared to sneak out from behind; it happened that the people on the stage looked up and saw two people who were about to leave, and immediately shouted: "You two, I don't know why you are dissatisfied with my article? "

Lin Heng and Wei Ruojin froze for a moment, they didn't expect to be found out, so they had to stand up straight and said loudly: "I'm not dissatisfied, it's just an emergency at home, I need to leave, I'm really sorry."

"The two of you don't have any servants around you, so how do you know about an emergency at home? You two are simply dissatisfied with my articles."

Wei Ruojin was helpless, if he had known this was the level, he shouldn't have come in.He can earn himself the reputation of a Shuangyu son in just two years. These people are really...

Wei Ruojin flicked his sleeves, strode to the stage, took the loudspeaker from his hand, thought for a while, and his gentle voice spread all over the corner.

After two cups of tea, Wei Ruojin put down the loudspeaker, saluted to the stands and left.As soon as he left, everyone in the room started whispering, and Du Ming's face became much better.

The face of the person who called out just now became uneasy. He didn't expect to be robbed of the limelight like this. The article he read just now was really not interesting, so it's no wonder that he wanted to leave.

Even the few people who came to power just now seemed useless under that person's article.

Du Ming walked to the front of the stage and said, "The person just now is the Princess of Northwest, and also the famous Shuangyu Prince in Kyoto."

Because of Du Ming's words, there was another murmur, but it soon turned to why a man, Shuangyu, became a princess.

However, the voices of discussion were quickly suppressed, and the gathering just now continued, but this time with Wei Ruojin's pearls and jades in front, Du Ming also began to find it difficult to bear the articles and verses of these people, and regretted that he was the host this time. .

In the end, this gathering could only end in a hurry, and Du Ming was so angry that he almost lost his temper with the ten articles that were barely selected.In the end, he ordered Qin Chong to say: "Make a separate book of the young master's articles, and print out these ten articles, and send them to their home!"

Qin Chong hurriedly responded, thinking: Teacher's temper is still the same as before, not to mention that these people can write poems if they can't write poems, and their essays are even more empty, even he doesn't like it.It really doesn't give any face, I'm afraid the teacher will never host the Gathering again.

"Wait." Du Ming called Qin Chong, who was about to leave, and said, "Didn't the lord say he was rich? Then print a few more copies and let the caravan send them to their family's territory for sale! Let them have a look at their home." They have taught you something!"

"Yes." Qin Chong went to find Lin Heng immediately after he agreed.

"My lord, it's fine if it's anything else, but won't this offend all the big families?" Qin Chong is more worried about this. It's fine if they are bought by their own family, but if they are bought by others After leaving, the anger came straight to the northwest.

After hearing this, Lin Heng turned his head to look at Wei Ruojin. The old man was angry, but he didn't dare to persuade him. It would be best for him, Young Master Shuangyu, to persuade him.

"Then don't sell it. After it's printed, the family will send two copies as souvenirs." Wei Ruojin thought for a while, since it's not easy to sell anyway, then give it away.

Qin Chong looked at Lin Heng and hoped that he could say something. It's all right now. If the young master said this, he would offend others if he didn't charge money, so it would be better to sell it to others.

"Tell them, it's fine that they were selected by this gathering. There is no need to say anything else. Why did they let these people come and what kind of things they would write? They naturally know it in their hearts, so don't worry about it." Wei Ruojin smiled, looked at Qin Chong, and said, "Mr. Qin, why don't you take care of the bookstore's affairs, I'm too busy right now."

"Bookstore?" Qin Chong was taken aback.

Wei Ruojin said: "Then it's settled. From now on, you will be in charge of it. Printing books must be approved by your side. As for the helper you need, you have seen it from me. I will choose from the people who came with you." Bar."

So far, this is something that Qin Chong officially received from the Northwest Palace. It is possible that Wei Ruojin thought about it when he let him look at the engraving and printing, so he said: "Yes, my son, I will definitely do my best. "

"You are really not afraid of offending everyone." Lin Heng laughed.

"Of course I'm not afraid. Now they are the only ones begging for the Northwest's share. They really dare to try to move the Northwest. By the way, I have read the accounts in the autumn harvest report last year. Your soldiers can increase the budget." Wei Ruojin winked at him.

Speaking of this, Lin Heng joked, "Then I don't know what kind of budget Mr. Wei will add to my soldiers this time?"

"Actually, it's not too little at present. Gauze, medicine, food, etc. are basically prepared. Well, let's add two sets of clothes, two sets for winter and two sets for spring. Let's add two hundred coins per month. Although there are not many places to spend money; but in this case, we have to expand the textile workshop."

Ask Xin Yi about the specific expansion. She is now in charge of the textile workshop, and she is in charge of almost everything, it depends on how she arranges it.

However, since the group of scholars knew that Wei Ruojin was the Shuangyu son who was famous all over the capital, many people sent posts, and Wei Ruojin didn't see any of them. There might be some useful people among these people, but he didn't want to use it at this time. .Rumors gradually spread among the group of people that Mr. Shuangyu was arrogant.

When the weather gradually gets warmer, the road leading to the mutual market can also be passed through, but a checkpoint is set up at the intersection, and only two yuan is charged for a load of goods; , more than [-] catties are not allowed on the cement road.

At the beginning, some people thought that the toll was too much, but those who only went to the exchange market once were willing to pay for it. As long as they went there, they could earn at least one or two taels of silver.Such a good profit, only pay two pennies at a time, it is simply too worthwhile.This also caused more and more people to go to the exchange market. Before long, there were men pulling carts and waiting on the side of the street to help haul goods and people.

When Wei Ruojin knew about it, she laughed, people, as long as they are given the environment, they can always find ways to make their lives better; it's just that this good mood didn't last long.When I was having dinner at night, I saw Lin Heng's face was frosty, and he was covered with air-conditioning.

"What's the matter?" Wei Ruojin had hardly seen him like this, not even when the Fourth Prince died.

"Lin Kang ordered us to go to the capital immediately, and the messenger from the capital has come. It is estimated that the internal officials will come to announce the decree in a short time." Lin Heng's voice was slightly chilly.
