Chapter 188 Lake Tour and Discussion
After a while, the two came to a large garden.

"Your Majesty, this is the garden of the mansion, Fairy Lake..." Bai Wan'er couldn't help but question.

"The lake in the mansion leads directly to Fairy Lake. There is a painting boat on the lake. Mr. Li can take a boat trip on the lake with me."

As expected, the prince is very wealthy. He has his own private yacht and direct access to tourist attractions.

It’s nice to be powerful!

Bai Wan'er sighed as she followed Xiao onto a large and gorgeous boat.The servants on the ship were already ready.

The boatman pushed the pole, and the boat left the shore, cut through the clear water, and sailed towards the vast misty waves in the distance.

Bai Wan'er sat in the cabin with Xiao Hongye, drinking tea and tasting exquisite refreshments.

The cabin door is wide open, the windows on both sides are open, the breeze is blowing, and the beautiful scenery outside is unobstructed.

Bai Wan'er was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery at all, and was concentrating on being vigilant.

When Prince Ming invited him to enjoy the scenery, it was not out of pure kindness.

If I had known this, I would have confessed my identity in the first place, and now I might have been rewarded and gone far away.

It's hard to ride a tiger!

"Master Li, what do you think of the scenery here?"

"Very good."

Xiao Hongye said with a smile: "Young Master Li has read a lot of poems and books, and when you see this beautiful scenery, don't you want to compose a poem?"

Bai Wan'er's hand shook and the tea in the cup spilled out.

At this critical moment, the only poem that can come to my mind is "The moonlight is bright in front of the bed, I suspect it is frost on the ground." It also praises the lakes and mountains, and it feels like ghosts just thinking about it.

Bai Wan'er lowered her head and thought for a while, then said, "I'm not good at poetry. The master who teaches me said that we, the scholars, should learn more about the ways of governing the world, in order to be on the right path."

Xiao Hongye nodded.

"This Master does have some knowledge. Reading and learning how to govern the world is indeed the most important thing for the court and the people. I wonder if Mr. Li has achieved success in his studies. What do you think about this?"

Bai Wan'er cursed in her stomach again.King Ming is really difficult to deal with.

Bai Wan'er lowered her head and thought for a while: "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. Zhonghua is just a little scholar. He doesn't have any knowledge. It's insignificant."

It was really tiring to say this, Bai Wan'er drank the tea in the cup in one breath.

Xiao Hongye narrowed his eyes: "Master Li, there is no need to be humble or afraid. We are not in court at this moment. We are just talking casually, but there is no harm in saying it."

Xiao Hongye clung to the topic.

Bai Wan'er gritted her teeth: "I'll tell you what I think. If I say something wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Master Li, just speak freely."

"I think the best thing about our country is that it is prosperous and the people are strong."

"Why isn't the imperial court clear and the people happy?"

"Only when the people have money can they have enough food, warm clothes, and peace of mind. If the court has money, it can tax lightly. If it has money, it can build national defense and expand its territory."

Xiao Hongye's eyes flashed with brilliance: "Then what can we do to make the country rich and the people strong?"

"The court's money comes from taxes. When the people are rich, the court will be rich, so we must first make the people rich."

“How do people get rich?”

Bai Wan'er waved her hand: "If you want to be rich, build roads first."

Xiao Hongye lowered his head and thought for a moment, then asked, "Why do you say that?"

"My lord, I haven't been to many places, but I know that wherever there are big rivers and ships are prosperous, the local people must be richer, and the local taxes must be higher."

Xiao Hongye nodded: "Indeed."

"This is because……"

Bai Wan'er gave Xiao Hongye a lesson on market economics.

He speaks eloquently, explains things in simple terms, and combines the current events he has seen with a clear and logical analysis.

As expected, he is indeed an ace marketer, and he has not lost his cooking skills.

Xiao Hongye listened with great interest. Except for asking for the meaning of some words he didn't understand, he almost didn't interrupt Bai Wan'er's speech.

After Bai Wan'er finished speaking, she drank a glass of water.It was so exhausting.It is really difficult to replace the concepts of market economics with the words of this world.

It's been a long time since I've challenged myself to express such difficult words.

After Xiao Hongye listened, he lowered his head and thought carefully, occasionally looking at Bai Wan'er, with a pair of phoenix eyes shining brightly.

"it is good!

"Xiao Hongye suddenly stood up, walked up to Bai Wan'er, and patted her on the shoulder.

"What Mr. Li said is really enlightening. Mr. Li will definitely be the pillar of the country in the future. I will definitely recommend him to the emperor."

Bai Wan'er's body tilted, and Prince Ming's hand was quite strong.

"Your Majesty is ridiculous. I only heard what others said, so I came up with these ideas. There are many knowledgeable people in the world."

Bai Wan'er smiled and declined, saying that she was not a good minister, so don't delay the country's construction plan.

"Young Master Li is so humble. What he just said can not only hit the shortcomings of the times, but also be far-sighted. It is indeed a rare and good strategy for building a country."

Xiao Hongye raised the wine glass in his hand: "I would like to give you a drink, sir."

Drinking again!

Bai Wan'er sighed softly.

In this world, no matter whether they are monks or demon cultivators, even the Butterfly Immortal would persuade them to drink.Now I meet another one.

"I'm too drunk, so just have this drink." Bai Wan'er said something ugly beforehand.

Xiao Hongye was slightly startled, then he went ahead as a sign of respect.

Bai Wan'er also drank the wine, which was spicy in her mouth and she couldn't help but frown.

Bai Wan'er asked: "Your Majesty, I have to visit a famous teacher. I don't know when I can leave?"

"No rush." ​​Xiao Hongye stood up and walked out, "Today, let's enjoy the scenery of the lakes and mountains here."

Then Xiao Hongye took Bai Wan'er to enjoy the scenery and chat.

Bai Wan'er brought the topic to Li Mansion several times, but Xiao Hongye easily steered the conversation away.

The other party is a good negotiator, a good social person, and a high-ranking prince.

Bai Wan'er gave up after trying several times and could only look for another chance.

Xiao Hongye happily swam the lake and got off the boat with a slightly depressed Bai Wan'er.

As soon as the two landed ashore, they saw Princess Qinghe walking quickly.

"Uncle Wang took Mr. Li to the lake, but he didn't ask Roy to come. It's really partial."

Xiao Hongye said helplessly: "You were frightened yesterday. You should have a good rest in the house today. What are you doing here?"

Dong Luoyi glanced at Bai Wan'er and said coquettishly: "Thanks to Mr. Li's thoughtful care yesterday, Roy is fine. Today I want to thank Mr. Li for saving his life."

After saying that, he bowed and saluted.

Bai Wan'er quickly raised her hand to stop: "Princess, you don't have to, I should do it."

"Okay, the banquet has been prepared in front, let's take a seat." Xiao Hongye took the lead and walked forward.

Bai Wan'er grimaced.

I still want to accompany you, why is it endless?I am really afraid of King Ming. When I am with him, my nerves are always tense.

"Master Li, let's sit down together. What did you and Uncle Wang say when you were admiring the lake just now?"

Dong Luoyi walked beside Bai Wan'er and talked with a smile.

Bai Wan'er would not repeat what she and Xiao Hongye said before leading the topic to something that the little girl was interested in.

It was easy for Bai Wan'er to deal with Princess Qinghe.

Xiao Hongye, who was walking in front, twitched his lips when he heard what Bai Wan'er said and Dong Luoyi's charming laughter behind him.

Li Zhonghua is indeed an extraordinary person. Not only is he far-sighted, but his ability to coax people is also top-notch.

How could such a person be a scholar trapped in a study?It is still necessary to investigate carefully, not to miss out on the talented people, nor to let go of the dangerous people.
