Seeing that he was unhappy, Shen Kuo said: "It's no big deal, just watch it if you want."

Although Su Muqian wanted to watch it, but he was angry with Shen Kuo just now, so he couldn't help it now: "It's not rare."

Shen Kuo smiled and didn't say anything else.Shen Kuo and Su Muqian stayed in the room all afternoon, later Shen Kuo found a book to read.The only sound in the room was the sound of him turning the pages of the book, and Su Muqian fell asleep lying on the table.

Su Muqian didn't wake up until dinner time.Dazed, he was taken into the house, had a delicious meal, and went to bed.

Su Muqian slept enough in Shen Kuo's study in the afternoon, and was not sleepy at all at night.With his eyes open in the night, what he was thinking about was his elusive son.

……

When Shen Kuo returned to the house, he heard that Mr. Qing had been waiting here for a long time.

Mr. Qing is Shen Kuo's aide, he has always been acquainted with it, so he usually wouldn't bother him at such a late hour.Since it's here, it must be a big deal.

Shen Kuo said: "What's wrong?"

Mr. Qing said: "The price of pig iron continues to rise. The crown prince and several lords are starting to say that the weapons field has been reduced. Should we also close it?"

A truly profitable business is by no means something you can talk about on the surface.This weapon-making business is really a cash cow.To say it is the hen that lays the golden eggs is an understatement!

Every year when purchasing in the military, rich merchants and armed forces must have access.Apparently the average person couldn't buy weapons for munitions supplies.

These weapons line came into being.

And it's not just Shen Kuo, there are at least [-] arms firms in Beijing, including the prince.Shen Kuo is the most low-key and hidden inside!

The volume of his goods is not large, and he does not sell them in Daqi.It can be circulated and traded along the sea every year, and a large amount of gold and gemstones can be exchanged for good goods that are in short supply.

This time, he earned enough money to squander ten lifetimes.

But this kind of business can't see the light.

In case the emperor finds out, if a big hat of treason is taken off, his head will have to be moved.

Shen Kuo said: "How can pig iron rise so much?"

Mr. Qing said: "The pig iron we transport here is all smuggled out of the mining area. The mining area has been over-exploited a while ago, it has collapsed many times, and many people have died. Now the upper management is very strict." Dare to go out at this time. Selling that is to bring your wealth and life, wealth and wealth are in danger.

Shen Kuo said: "Since the supervision is strict, let's transport some ore from Guanzhong and other places for the time being, so as not to be stuck in the mine."

They are usually nearby, and transportation outside the city is inconvenient, and there are additional risks.And it burns a lot of money.

Shen Kuo said: "Let's keep the latest weapons first, don't ship them."

Mr. Qing nodded and said: "Although it is difficult now, when the treasure ship returns, we can solve the urgent need."

Shen Kuo remained silent.

Mr. Qing thought he was sleepy, but it was getting late when he saw the sky.After saying a few words quickly, he let go.

Selling weapons was just a profitable business for Shen Kuo before, but he happened to marry a young general.

I heard that the conditions for marching and fighting in Mobei are very difficult.Many weapons are snatched from the enemy side.And it's hard to use.

No weapons at hand, no military expenses, and the worst food, but they can show their military prestige.

After hearing this, he also admired it very much, and had another bold idea in his heart. If the Su family army were to be armed, I really don't know what it would be like.

……

Shen Kuo took Su Muqian out for a walk.

Although after walking around the capital, I found that it was mediocre.

But every time Shen Kuo called him, he came very positively.It's better to be able to come out and have a breath with the Shizi than to hide in the back house.

After getting along for a long time, Su Muqian didn't blow up as often as before.Gradually let go of his heart, and learned to make him as a friend: "If you don't become the son of the world, what do you want to do most?"

In his heart, he only felt that Shen Kuo was a mystery, doing nothing all day long.But he can still enjoy himself, which is much better than him.

Shen Kuo said: "I want to compile history books and make myself great."

Su Muqian said: "History books can also be tampered with casually?"

Shen Kuo said: "Why not?" By the way, Shen Kuo said: "Then what does Little General Su want to do?"

Su Muqian said: "I want to go back to Mobei again." He can often recall the life there, and maybe he will never go back in his life.A few days ago, I heard that the young masters of several aristocratic families strangled a cat to death for fun.

Su Muqian was very angry when he heard that.

These people only want to be happy for themselves, but take life as ordinary.Maybe compared with those people, maybe I am just a cat, cat and dog.

Poor him, he was originally a person who is willing to love and hate, but now he is forced to live the life he is now, what's the point.

Shen Kuo said: "If you want to go back, I will accompany you next time." He added: "It is inconvenient for you to be pregnant with many things now."

It was rare for Su Muqian not to speak, he came to the capital and everything was done step by step, only the cub in his stomach was an accident.

Although it is not known whether Shen Kuo's words are true or false, but having this sentence is somewhat comforting.

The two of them went out to play without a servant.

From a distance, he watched Chu Yan and Lan Ting come out to look for them.Seeing them running over in a hurry, it seemed that they were going to be out of breath.Said: "Master, I have found you."

Chu Yan has a straight personality, seeing no one around, said: "People in the palace have sent a letter saying that you have been read a book, saying that you can get 4 taels of silver every year when you go to sea with a chartered boat." Now that the national treasury is empty, His Majesty is planning to operate on the aristocratic family and take money. At this time, if one copy is taken, there is no guarantee that the emperor will not be tempted.

Shen Kuo also knew the power of it, said: "I will go to the palace."

Su Muqian looked at him and said, "Yes."

Shen Kuo immediately went to the palace and asked Lan Ting to escort Su Muqian back.Their carriage has the logo of Shizifu.Ordinary people in the capital would not provoke him, so they could travel freely without any worries.

But it was said that Shen Kuo went to the palace, and was told by his father-in-law that the emperor was discussing important matters with the ministers in the imperial study and told him to wait outside for a while.

Shen Kuo waited outside.

After a long time, I saw Prince Beicheng coming out of it.Glancing at him, there was a bit of a sneer in his eyes.The mother of this Beicheng son is the daughter recognized by the first emperor among the people.

Bei Cheng's son has been the prince's servant since he was a child.The crown prince and Shen Kuo can still maintain some superficial decency.But every time Bei Cheng's son meets Shen Kuo, he is cold-eyed.

Seeing Shen Kuo now, he said: "Someone is going to be in big trouble."

"It was written by you?" Shen Kuo narrowed his eyes.

Master Bei Cheng said: "Of course not." He is not that stupid, even if he does not deal with him, he will not use this kind of tactic, anyway, just pull out any official from the sect and he can handle this matter well.

Shen Kuo thought to himself, it's nothing if His Majesty knows about the overseas trade of treasure ships, if he knows about the weapons factory, it's over.
