Iron Dynasty

In the afterglow of the evening, Zhao Long's face was flushed with red clouds.

After returning from Bowen Academy, he smiled and said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, many students in Bowen Academy have been agitated by the announcement to surpass Lu Tong's people."

"Well, these students do need some motivation. By the way, you will post this in each college tomorrow."

These days, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu followed Xiao Ming every day. He was always an observer outside of the school. After a long time, he also knew a lot of words. He looked at the paper that King Qi handed over.

On this paper are more detailed incentive measures, including scholarships, scientific and technological innovation awards, progress awards, outstanding contribution awards, and other titles. Behind these awards is a precise list of what awards will be received.

And what surprised him most was the Extraordinary Contribution Award, on which Xiao Ming wrote a set of the Qingzhou City House of Generals, three thousand taels of gold.

Putting away the reward regulations, Zhao Long bowed and left, his heart beating. This regulation is not only for the Bowen Academy, but also for the entire fief. As long as someone reports their scientific and technological achievements to the government office, the government office Will assess.

"If I can get the Great Contribution Award, ten wives will be enough." Thinking of such delicacies, his saliva would flow down.

It's just that when I secretly imagined in my heart, I suddenly recalled that King Qi looked a little unhappy at the sunset just now, I don't know why?

The sunset glow is beautiful, especially under this pure sky, the sunset glow on the horizon is like the colorful colors in the glass ball.

Only in Xiao Ming's eyes, this beauty is very dangerous, at least for his fief.

As the saying goes, the morning glow does not go out, and the evening glow travels thousands of miles, which means that the morning glow will rain, and the evening glow will be sunny again.

Now Qingzhou is basically sunset, which also means that Pang Yukun’s prediction may come true, and Qingzhou may face a drought this year.

Since ancient times, the areas of He. South, He. North, and Mountain. East have been drought and locust plagues. There have been many chaos in history due to the disasters in these three areas.

During the Kuomintang rule, Henan suffered a severe drought from July 1942 to the spring of 1943, followed by a locust plague, which eventually led to a major famine in Henan.

At that time, famine spread throughout the province, and countless people starved to death.

Recalling the **** archives, Xiao Ming couldn't help but feel a chill in his back. The drought was at the time of the frontline fighting against Japan, and this added to the disaster.

And now the blood wolf tribe is looking at it. If the state is merged, the Jizhou generation will cause chaos due to drought and no food. At this time, the situation in the country that has just been restored by him will probably take a sharp turn.

It's just that he is a man, not a god, and he has nothing to do with this natural and man-made calamity. What's more, Bingzhou is the fief of King Liang, and Jizhou is the fief of King Yong. He can't intervene, nor can he intervene.

Now it is heaven's blessing to be able to protect his fief from disaster.

"It's raining, no matter how beautiful the sunset is, I can't eat it as a meal." Xiao Ming muttered to himself.

Because of this incident, Xiao Ming went directly to the Chamber of Commerce the next day to personally supervise the purchase of grain.

"His Royal Highness, the lower officials have already explained that they will exchange goods and prepare to purchase a large amount of food."

Li Kaiyuan hurriedly explained that Xiao Ming was working on food.

"It's not enough. Let all the ships of the Chamber of Commerce go down the Yangtze River to purchase grain. The grain in the north has never been enough to eat. We can only start from the south.

Xiao Ming thought about it all night before going to the south to buy grain reserves.

Li Kaiyuan now knows why Xiao Ming wants to purchase food on a large scale. He knows the importance of this issue. He suddenly said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, there is someone in the Chamber of Commerce that you might want to meet. If he nodded, we should not have food in Qingzhou. There will be problems."

"Who?" Xiao Ming was taken aback.

"His Majesty, this Jiangnan is rich in the world, but there is a Cao family, but a rich Jiangnan. Now, some people from the Cao family are planning to purchase glass mirrors from the Chamber of Commerce, saying that they will visit His Highness later. In that case, it is better to see your Highness now. they."

"Cao Family?" Xiao Ming frowned.

Although he has produced a lot of goods since last year, the Cao family has never been in a hurry and seems to care about the profits of these goods.

Can the Cao family finally couldn't help it?

After hesitating, he said: "If this is the case, let him come."

Li Kaiyuan nodded and went out immediately. After a while, he led a young man in a white robe with silk and satin to walk in.

"Cao Zhengyang pays respects to His Highness!"

Seeing Xiao Ming, the young man in the white robe was graceful and polite, neither humble nor humble.

"Cao Zhengyang? The concubine of the Cao family asked a concubine to come to see the king. It seems that the Cao family has never put the king in their eyes." Xiao Mingduan sat on the chair with a calm expression and slight dissatisfaction.

He deliberately tested this Cao Zhengyang.

Cao Zhengyang left Lin'an seven days ago and arrived in Qingzhou today. This time he was appointed by his family to come to Qingzhou.

Hearing this, he said indifferently: "It is said that His Royal Highness is the dragon and phoenix among the people, the role model of the Great Yu Kingdom. I didn't expect that His Royal Highness will also divide the people by his concubines. It's a pity, it's a pity that I thought His Highness was different.

"Bold, your highness is honorable, how can you allow you to criticize at will, if you knew that, the mirrors in this chamber of commerce are not sold to you." Li Kaiyuan angrily said.

Xiao Ming stretched out his hand to stop Li Kaiyuan who was about to continue cursing.

"In Qingzhou, the king naturally does not distinguish between his concubines, but among the powers of the great Yu country, he often regards his concubines as his esteem. If he goes to other places, he must use his concubines to show respect. You think you will wear a high hat to the king. Will the king be fooled?" Xiao Ming sneered.

Cao Zhengyang suffocated when he heard the words, and he continued: "His Royal Highness is smart. It is not that the Cao family despises His Highness, but that his father heard that His Highness is wise, and the eldest brother is ill in bed, so he is forced to come here~www.ltnovel.com~ Just tell the truth." Xiao Ming stood up and said, "This king doesn't like circling around. Let's go, what do you want when you come to Qingzhou this time?"

"His Royal Highness is quick to speak, if this is the case, Cao will not hide it, presumably his Royal Highness knows that the Cao family has been serving under the Chu King."

Xiao Ming nodded, "Isn't it?"

Cao Zhengyang said: "His Royal Highness, for a businessman, business has no borders. What a businessman pursues is only real money, so please don't treat the Cao family as the dog and horse of the King of Chu."

As soon as he said this, Xiao Ming's brows frowned, because such words shouldn't be said by a businessman from Great Yu Country.

"This is the country of Da Yu. What is it that businessmen are not powerful dogs?"

"Yes, it is true in the country of Da Yu, but the difference lies in this. His Highness is prepared to use business to rejuvenate the country, and perhaps he can create a free country for businessmen.
