On the possibility of Wang Ye falling in love with a school tyrant

As soon as Gu Xian finished praising Fu Donglou, the people from Fu Donglou arrived at Prince Rui's Mansion.It didn't matter if Bo Junhe went to court early in the morning and then went to the barracks for training, Fu Donglou didn't care, he didn't come to see him at all.On the contrary, the spinning machine brought by Fu Donglou enjoyed an emperor-level treatment. Because the machine was too wide and it was a rare thing, the people below were afraid of breaking it, so they asked Gu Xian to open the middle door of Prince Rui's mansion before giving it to him. get in.

"It looks like the wooden shelf you made seems to be a loom?" Gu Xian carefully looked at the spinning machine and pointed to the shaft where the spindles are placed, "Ordinary loom spindles are placed horizontally, yours But it’s placed vertically, so what’s the point?”

Gu Xian grasped the point at a glance, which made Fu Donglou look sideways.

"Unexpectedly, Your Highness knows how to weave. My spinning machine can drive eight spindles at the same time. In this way, the output of one machine is more than eight times that of other merchants' looms." The Gu family is a scholarly family, Fu Donglou Originally thought it would take a lot of talking to let Gu Xian know what he was doing, but now it seems that he really underestimated Wang Taiqing of Dachu.

"It's a good profit, and it saves a lot of wages." Gu Xian nodded, "He has a clever mind and a bit of talent."

"Not only does it save labor and money, but the yarn spun by this machine is much finer and tighter than the existing looms. Your Highness can find a skilled weaver girl to come and have a try."

"You are quite spiritual in business, and you will be a good housekeeper in the future."

Although Gu Xian affirmed the spinning machine, he still didn't pay enough attention to it.Fu Donglou didn't want the palace to be a backer to support him in business, not just to open a small shop to earn pocket money, he had to have Gu Xian's full support.

"Your Highness, if I say that this spinning machine can help His Highness conquer the battlefield and dominate the world, what does His Highness think?"

"Oh? That's rather strange. I've never heard of people who ruled the world by weaving." Gu Xian went back to the house and ordered tea, "I'd like to listen to some high-level lectures."

Not being kicked out of the palace immediately is enough to see Gu Xian's heart. Fu Donglou has a good impression of Gu Xian, so he bowed and said slowly: "Everyone in the world, from the emperor to the common people, Clothes are needed, but where does the cloth come from? First, silkworms are raised to grow hemp, and then the yarn is spun and then woven into cloth. If there is no cloth in the world, wouldn’t people have to wear naked clothes, or just live in leather and leaves? So It is said that cloth, like salt and grain, is the lifeblood of the national economy."

"Something makes sense." Gu Xian took a sip of tea, but his eyes fell on the jade pendant on Fu Donglou's wrist, his handsome phoenix eyes were lowered to cover the expression in his eyes.

"Your Highness, please think, if my spinning machine is put into use, the cost of cloth in my cloth shop will be lower than that of others, and the price will naturally be cheaper. If the quality of my cloth is better than others, there is still a cloth shop Can you compete with me for business? There are only a few people in the world who can afford Su embroidery and Shu brocade, and more ordinary people use the most common Songjiang cloth."

"How about taking the world with cloth?"

"If I expand the cloth business to the north of the Yangtze River and let the people of Yan use my cheap cloth, and the soldiers of Yan also use my cloth to make cloth armor, will the cloth merchants of Yan still have a way to survive? Many cloth merchants went bankrupt one after another, and many workers could not afford to eat, which naturally added hidden dangers to the country of Yan. Second, if one day my Great Chu and Bei Yan went to war, I would no longer sell cloth to the country of Yan, and the people of the country of Yan would wear What? What do the soldiers of the Yan State wear? This battle will last for one month and two months, but if it lasts for three to five years, the entire Yan State will probably have no clothes to wear.” Fu Donglou’s method was combined with the acquisition of Jiangbei at a low price. Textile raw materials are outright dumping monopoly plus economic colonization.

"Wonderful, the idea is good, but I'm afraid it won't be as effective as you think when it is implemented." Gu Xian clapped his hands and smiled, "You also said that this is just a spinning machine, no matter how much yarn there is, it cannot be woven into cloth It is also useless, if you want to swallow all the cloth houses in Beiyan by yourself, you will need a lot of cloth. And if you want to cause serious damage to a country, cloth alone may not be effective."

Gu Xian did not deny it outright, which meant that there was something to be said about it, not to mention that the question Gu Xian pointed out was in place, which happened to be what Fu Donglou wanted to talk about.

Or to talk to smart people is to save effort.Fu Donglou secretly praised and continued: "The spinning machine I brought today was made by myself. From its design to every part, it is not faked by others. Apart from the spinning machine, I can also make it Produce high-yield looms. In addition to cloth, I can also burn porcelain to make weapons. It’s just that I can’t do it alone, and I need the cooperation of skilled craftsmen. Besides, what I think is not just as simple as unifying Beiyan.”

Before crossing, Fu Donglou had always imagined what he would do after crossing, but it's a pity that others would think he was sick if he said these thoughts.Now that he really wears it, his idea of ​​opening up cheats may be realized. Not to mention, this person who may become his backer does not seem to be repulsed, but he is still interested. Fu Donglou naturally talked more and more enthusiastically.

"Your Highness comes from a scholarly family and you are the Taiqing of the Great Chu King. You have seen many fine porcelains in your life, but have you ever seen blue and white porcelain? The background of that kind of porcelain is as white as suet jade, and the pattern is blue and purple like sapphire. I have been in China since ancient times. They traded with countries in the Western Regions and sold mostly silk and porcelain. In the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu opened up the Silk Road. In the previous Tang Dynasty, merchants also traveled by sea to the Eastern and Southern Oceans to do business with barbarian countries. The profits they gained were in the country. The business is ten times and a hundred times. If my Dachu also has a caravan that sells these exquisite porcelains that no one in the country has ever seen before, how much profit will it get? If this caravan is controlled by the state, one How much income can it bring to the treasury in a year?"

"Let's talk about weapons. When we talk about famous knives and swords nowadays, most of them use Tai'a, Zhanlu, Ganjiang, Moxie, etc. made by Master Ou Yezi during the Warring States Period as divine weapons. , Can you hear that there is any master in modern times who has handed down his works? It can be seen that the sword casting of today is not as far away as the ancients. I have studied ancient books and classics, and I have learned a method of casting swords, which can be as famous as the sword made by Ou Yezi. If This kind of weapon can arm every soldier of our Great Chu, so why worry about the invincibility of Beiyan?" Naturally, Fu Donglou couldn't directly say about high-carbon steel, chromium metal, etc., so he had to use the name of the ancients.

"You are not dreaming, are you?"

Fu Donglou was in high spirits when suddenly there was a voice behind him that he least wanted to hear - Bo Junhe came back.

The blueprint drawn by Fu Donglou was indeed beautiful, so beautiful that Gu Xian and Bai Junhe, who had only listened to half of it, were stunned when they heard it.Gu Xian was secretly thinking about the truth and falsehood of what Fu Donglou said, but Bai Junhe didn't believe that Fu Donglou could have such a great ability at all.Not to mention anything else, assuming that what Fu Donglou said is true, then who did he learn such great skills from?National teacher Mu Yan?If the national teacher really knew these things, how could Dachu and Beiyan draw a river to rule now, and they would have fought over it long ago.If it weren't for Mu Yan, who else in the world has such a talent against the sky?Not only did he have this talent, but he was also able to teach an apprentice like Fu Donglou who had been unknown for many years.This is not what idiots say dreams are.

Fu Donglou didn't even want to give Bo Junhe a straight look, let alone salute him.With a flick of his chin and a flick of his long hair, Fu Donglou said coldly: "It is said that a hero deserves a beauty. I am not a woman, no matter how beautiful or ugly I am, but I also consider myself not a bear. The prince looks down on me so much but wants to marry me. I can only say that the prince You can't be considered a hero, and you think you can only marry a useless person."

"A man has his own way of making meritorious deeds, not what kind of person he marries." Bo Jun and Bu Xihan took care of Fu Donglou, passed him and went to greet Gu Xian himself.

"I think I have the talent to help the world, but I only told His Highness Wang Taiqing these ideas for the sake of marrying into the palace. If not, Da Chu doesn't need me. I can go to find Emperor Beiyan, at least he will be Beiyan." Yan won't look down on me just because I have barbarian blood on my body, and she can't even treat me as a guest of honor." Fu Donglou may not really think how arrogant he is, but he must never lose in front of Bo Junhe, This is a matter of dignity.

"You want to treason?" Bo Junhe's voice was so gloomy that he could drip water, not to mention the sharp blade-like eyes, Fu Donglou felt that he was cut to death by Bo Junhe a hundred and eighty times in just this moment .

I wasn't originally from Chu.Fu Donglou just thought about these words in his heart, he still understands that those who know current affairs are heroes.If he really choked on Bo Junhe for the sake of face, it would be a dead end.

It was also the first time for the four of Fenghuaxueyue to hear their master talking so eloquently. Just now, seeing the master pointing out Jiang Shan and scolding Fang Qiu, he was really handsome and energetic.In the blink of an eye, the prince came back and ridiculed the master, and now he is threatening the master with harsh eyes and words, the four of them feel more and more that the prince is not a good person, and the master will have a hard time in the future.

In the middle of Fu Donglou's words, Gu Xian realized that Fu Donglou's origin might not be simple. Thinking about the order of Taoist Shanshi back then, what Gu Xian had planned in his mind was beyond the imagination of others.What's more, Fu Donglou has an indissoluble connection with Chuan Guo Yuxi, and the various magical skills he said may be related to the ancient and Qin treasures hidden behind the legendary Chuan Guo Yuxi.Could it be that Fu Donglou's biological mother, Qin Yao, has already cracked Yuxi's secret?If it is true, does Mu Yan know?

Staring at the jade pendant on Fu Donglou's wrist, Gu Xian fell into deep thought.

"Believe it or not, if I hadn't been able to find a craftsman to help me for a while, I would have brought more than one spinning machine today." Fu Donglou avoided Bai Junhe and cupped his hands to Gu Xian, "Please believe me, Your Highness." I, in a few months, I will marry into Prince Rui's Mansion. Only when the mansion is good for me can I live a good life. It is useless for me to lie to His Highness. If I am a liar, His Highness will lose some money at most, but my family and life are all gone. In the hands of His Highness, is it not easy for His Highness to kill me?"

Seeing that Gu Xian didn't answer, Fu Donglou was anxious, and said: "I know that what I said just now has no evidence and it's hard to win people's trust. Your Highness can give me some carpenters, porcelain burners and blacksmiths first. As soon as the finished product is finished, show it to His Highness."

"No, I trust you alone." Gu Xian raised his head, his gentle smile was conciliatory, "Prince Rui's Mansion also has its own property, and there are many cloth kilns and kilns in it, but the making of weapons requires the supervision of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry." If you just make one or two samples first, you can use Habayashi Army’s foundry workshop. If you can really cast magic weapons, it’s not difficult for Zhuo Cheng to ask the court for your credit.”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Fu Donglou was overjoyed, and bowed to Gu Xian to the end.

Fenghuaxueyue and the others were also happy for their master, but what they thought was that the master was not afraid of not being treated by the prince, after all, the father-in-law was for the master.

After Gu Xian spoke, Bo Junhe didn't say much anymore, he just stood beside Gu Xian with his head bowed, but Gu Xian joked: "Isn't what you've been looking forward to all day long just to find a capable Wang Qing? You are picky. If what Louer said is true, his talent is far superior to being a father. You must know that those who can lead soldiers are easy to get, and those who can be ministers are also easy to get. It is those extraordinary scholars who are invincible. Whether they are saints like Confucius and Mencius or master craftsmen like Lu Ban, they are all rare treasures that will benefit future generations."

"What my father taught me is that my son can save it."

Looking at people's awareness, these words simply mean "technology is the primary productive force".Fu Donglou spontaneously sublimated Gu Xian's words, and met Bo Jun's complicated eyes with extreme awe.Look, your father is facing me, hehe.

"This matter needs to be discussed in detail later. Didn't you come today to inquire about famous gifts? Speaking of this, there is one thing I have to mention." Gu Xian pointed to Fu Donglou's braid tied behind his head. Fa, "Although it is said that the crown ceremony should be held at the age of 20, but seeing that you are about to get married, you must use the crown at the wedding, and it is not impossible to perform the crown ceremony at the age of 16. Fu Xiang is busy with official duties and has no time to take care of it. I'm an idler, so I have to take care of it for you."
