I don't want to be king

Chapter 552 Inventions and Creations

The two school captains led their horses out from the stable at the entrance of the alley. After Kuanliang waved at them, he went straight to Wang Xiaoshuan and said with a smile, "You don't need to be on duty today?"

Wang Xiaoshuan looked up and down the food shortage and asked, "Are you promoted again?"

Duan Liang said, "Don't interrupt, I'm asking you something."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "I will rest this week, and I don't need to go to the barracks."

"It's a hot day, if you don't stay at home, what are you going out for?"

He gave him a blank look and said, "I haven't taken a day off in the past two months, and it's too late to envy you. You still don't know how to cherish it."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "You also answer me, have you been promoted again?"

Duan Liang raised his head and said, "Your Excellency, I have taken the post of general."

Wang Xiaoshuan was dumbfounded and said, "This is a real job. After a while, maybe he can be released to lead the army."

Duanliang said, "It's not so easy to lead the army. I guess it needs to be practiced."

Wang Xiaoshuan pulled him to a cool place, and asked, "Who did you get as a disciplinary inspector?"

"What do you mean I gave it to whom?

That is what I can give to whoever I want? "

Duan Liang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Be careful what you say in the future, how human you are."

"Okay, don't be picky, who did Mr. He give this position to?"

Wang Xiaoshuan put it another way.

Without enough food, he said narrowly, "Do you want to guess?"

Wang Xiaoshuan shook his head and said, "If you can't guess, you should just say it."

Duan Liang said, "It's Zhou Xun."

"Zhou Xun?"

Wang Xiaoshuan jumped up and said, "She's a bitch.
woo woo woo."

The mouth was directly covered by the food shortage.

Seeing that he stopped yelling, Duan Liang let go of his hands and said, "If you want to jump, go home, don't stay here, people will see it, and think what's going on."

Wang Xiaoshuan gasped for a long while, then glared at Duan Liang, "It took so much effort, it almost choked me to death, I was just curious, Zhou Xun was not a fast arrester, he was from the yamen, it has nothing to do with the army what."

Guanliang said indifferently, "It is because she has nothing to do with the army that she is suitable to be the picket leader. She doesn't need to care about anyone's favor and bend the law for personal gain."

"Master He is really wise,"

After Wang Xiaoshuan finished speaking, "Then where are you going now so that we can have a drink together?"

"Give you momentum?"

Quanliang immediately guessed his purpose.

Wang Xiaoshuan said with a smile, "Brother, you know me well. Now go to Futai Restaurant, and I'll call that kid Fang Pi."

Fang Pi didn't think much of him, so he took the broken food with him, so that Fang Pi wouldn't lose face.

"Not today."

Suanliang shook his head.

"why?"

Wang Xiaoshuan looked at the two captains next to him in puzzlement, "You don't look like something is wrong."

If something really happened, he wouldn't just take two captains with him.

Duanliang said in a low voice, "Today I'm going to be on duty at Yongwang's Mansion."

"Prince Yong's Mansion, isn't that?"

This time, Wang Xiaoshuan covered his mouth before the food was cut off.

The name Prince is still taboo in Ankang City.

Duanliang rolled his eyes, the meaning is obvious, you are smart.

"Okay, I won't tell you any more, I'm leaving, let's settle things by myself."

"and many more,"

Wang Xiaoshuan quickly stopped him, "I just want to ask you something, what background does Guo Cong have?"

"Guo Zhao's son?"

Seeing him nodding, Duanliang said angrily, "The more you fucked up the more you turned around, this kind of shit can be taken seriously."

"that is not what I meant,"

Wang Xiaoshuan smiled and said, "Ye Chen's shopkeeper, Zhang Shun, and Fang Pi's Zhou Jing, are all flattering. If they don't know the details, it's not like this, right?"

Duanliang casually said, "Then why don't you ask Fang Pi directly?

What are you messing with me? "

Wang Xiaoshuan said anxiously, "Let me tell you the truth, I will take 100 taels of silver from someone, and if you tell me the truth, I can also explain to him, don't you think so?"

Duan Liang sighed, "You, if you want to make money, hurry out of the capital camp, don't make mistakes, otherwise if something happens in the future, not only will you be unlucky, but you will also implicate Wei Yishan, why bother?"

Wang Xiaoshuan said with a sneer, "Don't worry, nothing I do is out of line. If I get discovered, it's no big deal. At most, I won't do it."

"Humph,"

Quanliang said angrily, "Are you treating everyone as fools?
If you don't do this all the time, will Wei Yishan's face be bright?
What would Mr. He think of him?

You, you can't just think about yourself, you have to think about us brothers.

Alright, that's the end of my words, you should think about it carefully. "

After speaking, he took the reins from the captain, got on the horse, and galloped away.

"Hey,"

Wang Xiaoshuan looked at the three horses that were gradually going away, and said with emotion, "What happened to me today, who did I offend, nothing goes well."

After hesitating for a while, he returned to Futai Restaurant again.

Wang Xun asked curiously, "Why are you back again?"

Wang Xiaoshuan asked, "Are they still there?"

Wang Xundao, "Don't even look at what time it is, it's already past dinner time."

"Hey, you put it that way, I'm hungry right away, and I haven't eaten yet."

Wang Xiaoshuan heard that Guo Cong and others had left, so he said, "You serve me some of your signature dishes, and then come and have a drink with me."

"I'll serve you the food, drink it yourself,"

Wang Xun sighed, "My old man is waiting for me outside the city. I have to go and be scolded by him to relieve him."

Wang Xiaoshuan asked, "Where did you provoke him again?"

"How dare I provoke him,"

Wang Xun frowned and said, "It's nothing more than dissatisfaction with me. He sees the Liang family and Ye family's business in Ankang City getting bigger and bigger, and his eyes are very hot."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "You have been in Ankang City for the past few years, and you have done well. This restaurant alone can be ranked well in Ankang City."

"The key depends on who you compare with. Compared with the Liang family and the others, it's not a fart,"

Wang Xun sighed, "Originally, the Liang family didn't care about the restaurant business, but as a result, once they arrived in Ankang City, they opened three restaurants in succession!
Silk and satin shops, rice shops, and pawnshops are also blooming everywhere.

Can't compare, can't compare. "

"It's a pity that you are also a junior graduate,"

Wang Xiaoshuan teased, "No matter how big the silk and satin village is, it's useless, it's nothing more than earning more money.

You, it is not impossible to surpass them. "

What does it mean to earn a little more money?
Wang Xun felt very uncomfortable listening to it, but he didn't want to turn his face. What if the other party really had a way to surpass the Liang family's business in Ankang City?

After hesitating for a while, he said politely, "Do you have any good ideas?"

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "Brothers are clear about their accounts, so don't be so anxious."

What's more, the two are not even friends.

Wang Xun immediately understood what he meant, and gritted his teeth, "If you really have a good idea, just say it, as long as it's reliable, I'll give you 100 taels!"

"It hurts to talk about money, doesn't it?"

Wang Xiaoshuan said with a smile.

"1000 taels, don't think about more."

Wang Xun said very firmly.

"Look, brother, you are still so polite,"

Wang Xiaoshuan went straight to the side table and sat down, waited for Wang Xun to pour him tea, then picked up the teacup and said slowly, "If you want to surpass them, there is only one way, and that is to respect the prince."

"It's harder than making money."

Wang Xun put down the teapot in his hand and said, "Can you say something reliable?"

After drinking the water in the teacup, Wang Xiaoshuan said, "You said Mo Shun, Deng Ke, Huang Daoji, oh, and Li Sanniang, how did you get up?
Mo Shun was originally a refugee from Yuezhou, and his family almost starved to death on the way.

Although Huang Daoji was a native of Baiyun City, he was only a blacksmith, not much better than a refugee. If he hadn't been building roads in Sanhe with the prince, he, a blacksmith, would have wanted to sell his daughter.

As for Deng Ke, a carpenter, he was also a poor and poor family. He became a supplier by mistake. He was sent to a labor camp because he owed wages to his workers. He has to be valued by the prince, and he has been brought back to life.

As for Li Sanniang, I don't need to say more. An old woman is beaten by the men of the family every day, and she has four children.

Looking back, although these people are not as rich as your Wang family, but look, which one is not prosperous?

This Mo Shun is still an official, even if your father sees him, you have to be polite, right? "

Wang Xun looked at Wang Xiaoshuan in surprise, as if he didn't know him, "You can say such a reasonable thing, you go on."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "I went to Deng Ke's carpenter's workshop three times in a row with my lord, Huang Daoji's blacksmith shop, I went to my lord's no less than ten times in a month, Mo Shun's gunpowder workshop, and my lord even went to it. How many times.

Even Li Sanniang's garment shop, and the prince went there to encourage him to set up textiles in Sanhe.

Li Sanniang was timid at that time, afraid of losing money, she didn't dare to do textiles, so the opportunity just passed away, otherwise she wouldn't be stuck like she is now. "

Wang Xun frowned, feeling vaguely that he had caught something, and suddenly slapped his palm on the table with a bang, "I understand!"

"You really understand?"

At the moment when Xiaoer brought up the food and wine, Wang Xiaoshuan took a piece of chicken leg first and gnawed on it sullenly.

Wang Xun poured wine for Wang Xiaoshuan himself, and said with a smile, "Brother's words awakened the dreamer.

If you want to value it with the prince, you have to set up a workshop! "

Wang Xiaoshuan nodded and said, "That's what it means, it's actually an industry, how many restaurants do you open, it's better to open a workshop.

And the prince himself said that invention and creation are the cornerstone of development.

Whether it's a textile shop or a blacksmith shop, they are all very important to the prince, even if it's a mill?
The water mill outside Ankang City, and the prince has been there several times. The shopkeeper is from Jizhou. In order to reward him for his achievements in improving the water mill, the prince directly gave him a "First Class Invention Merit" medal. Now here Ankang City, not to mention walking sideways, at least no one would dare to provoke him easily. "

Wang Xun said eagerly, "Then what kind of workshop do you think I should run?

But our family also has a workshop, and neither the prince nor the prince visited it once. "

After Wang Xiaoshuan took a sip of his wine, he yawned and said, "Your family has a blacksmith shop and a tailor shop, but have you done anything that others haven't done?

To put it bluntly, there is still no creativity, and you have to do it differently from others. "

"invent,"

Wang Xun frowned and thought for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Just tell me, I'll give you another 1000 taels."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "Do you know what the first prize in this year's invention competition is?"

Wang Xun said with a sneer, "Brother, I've been buried in the store all day, and I don't know much about the things outside."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "I don't know exactly what it is. It is probably something used on the boat. At that time, I was a judge with the prince. After reading it, I yelled yes and decided it as the first prize. Not only did I let him be the first prize." The consultant of the Jizhou Navy also gave him money to build a shipyard."

Wang Xundao, "He Wang Ye is wise and powerful, and he knows the goods."

Wang Xiaoshuan nodded and said, "So, as long as you come out with something good, the prince and I will definitely not bury you."

"So, what am I supposed to do?"

Wang Xun continued to ask.

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "We still can't invent it ourselves, so why don't we go to the Academy of Sciences and buy a patent back. Now this is called the combination of industry, education and research."

"patent?"

Wang Xun was at a loss.

Wang Xiaoshuan sighed, "You really don't understand anything?"

Wang Xun rolled his eyes at him and said, "Just tell me, your money won't be lost."

Wang Xiaoshuan said, "The artisans of the Daliang National Academy of Sciences forgot to sleep and eat, and invented a lot of good things, but if they want to make them, they need money. Our treasury is empty and we don't have that much money.

The prince thought of a way to allow the folk good merchants to buy this invention.

Or pay to cooperate with the Academy of Sciences and hold workshops together.

This is called the combination of production, education and research. "

Wang Xun's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea."

"So, your workshop still depends on the Academy of Sciences,"

Wang Xiaoshuan said unhurriedly, "The Academy of Sciences has a catalog of collaborations. If you have time, go to the Academy of Sciences for a look. If you see something worth doing, just buy it."

Wang Xundao said, "You will really lose money if you do this. You should come out and continue to do business."

"It's been said before."

When Wang Xiaoshuan thought about the food shortage, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

Did I really do something wrong?
But as the old saying goes, being an official for thousands of miles is only for money.

If he is not for money, what kind of official is he?

Thinking of this, the wine in the glass directly stuffed into the stomach.

"You came up with the idea, let's partner together,"

Wang Xun continued to pour wine for him, "I don't know much about invention contests, but I do know about the affairs of the court. Mr. Xing Keshou is investigating official corruption in front of his eyes. His old man can't rub the sand in his eyes. You can stand up for this now." , to hold up the scene for that, sooner or later something will happen, let’s come out of the Beijing camp, so as not to cause any trouble in the future.”

"You think so too?"

Wang Xiaoshuan's eyes widened.

Wang Xun said with a smile, "In terms of business, you do have some talent, but I still know a little better than you about official affairs.

You, it's over. "

Wang Xiaoshuan raised his head and sighed, "Grandma, bear, listen to you.

It's too tiring to earn a lot of money after working so hard for a whole year. "

Or do business to make money quickly.
