Chapter 140: Two Secret Recipes
"This..." Everyone was shocked.
How did the king of Chu tell his spring dream.
There are so many people here, is it appropriate for you to say that?
Xiong Huai then sighed and said: "It's a pity that when the fairy and the widow returned to the Chu Palace, they saw that the Chu Palace was really simple, and they were unwilling to step into the Chu Palace. β
"However, before the fairy left, he told the widow that as long as the widow built a glass crystal palace in the Chu State, the fairy would be willing to go down to earth again and achieve a hundred years of good relations with the widow."
Qu Yuan quickly linked the construction of the Crystal Palace with the mobilization of the army, and asked Chi Chi: "What the king means is to use the construction of the Crystal Palace as a pretext to hide the purpose of borrowing money, and then use the army to cook rice in the Chu State in the name of being unable to repay the money, so as to sell flour to various countries." β
Xiong Huai hesitated for a moment, he wanted to say that the matter of the Crystal Palace was not an interface, but after thinking that there was no shadow of the glass yet, it was better not to scare them.
So he nodded and said: "Yes, the widow plans to borrow money from the nobles in the name of building the Crystal Palace, and then in the name of lack of money, use the army's rice to sell flour to pay off the debt, one is to collect finances, and the other is to quickly promote flour." β
"Only after flour is recognized by everyone, the nobles in various places will take the initiative to grow wheat in their own territories, and the common people will follow suit when they see that wheat is profitable."
The crowd nodded.
It has been a long time since the state of Chu and other countries called on the people to plant winter wheat, but it has been difficult to see results.
The root cause of this is that Maimi has not been recognized by everyone.
It is human nature to indulge in leisure and to hate hard work.
If there is a bumper harvest in the autumn and after paying taxes, the remaining grain can still be enough for the whole family, so why do the common people have to work hard to grow unpalatable wheat and rice, is it just to prepare for natural disasters that may occur next year?
So the situation is similar in all countries, in the spring and summer, all the fields will be planted with corn, and after the harvest, the people will so-so and casually plant some wheat and rice for emergencies.
In addition, the countries themselves do not pay enough attention to winter wheat, and after the autumn harvest, it is generally the time when war breaks out, and frequent wars and large numbers of people are transferred, which makes it more difficult to promote winter wheat.
The rulers don't pay attention to it, the people don't recognize it, even if there is a black technology of winter wheat, wheat and rice can still only be used as relief food.
After agreeing on the plan to promote flour, Xiong Huai said to Ejun: "Xianqing, the purchase of wheat should be sooner rather than later, the widow hopes that Qing can set off in these two days, and immediately rush to various countries to buy wheat and rice, I don't know how much principal Qing needs." β
Ejun thought for a while and said: "King, now Maimi is relatively lowly in all countries, and Weichen only needs 20,000 gold as the capital to buy Maimi in the hands of civilians in various countries and return. β
Xiong Huai thought about it, and in order to prevent it, he simply handed over all the money in the Taifu to Ejun, so he waved his hand and said proudly: "Well, the widow will give Xianqing 30,000 gold, and be sure to buy back the wheat and rice from all countries." β
E Jun saluted and said, "The minister receives the order." β
Then, after Xiong Huai let everyone disperse, he left Zhaoyu and Jiya behind.
After only Zhaoyu and Zunya were left in the hall, Xiong Huai's eyes flashed with a frenzy, and said, "Can the two virtuous people know what the widow left the two of them to do?" β
Zhaoyu and Jiya glanced at each other, and saw their own guess from the other party's eyes, and there was only one thing they had in common, one was Sikong and the other was Zuo Gong, both of whom were responsible for the affairs of the hundred workers.
Zhaoyu said calmly: "The king has a hundred things to explain to the minister. β
Xiong Huai stagnated.
Old treacherous and cunning, can you still make the widow pretend to be a coercion happily, can't you be smarter!
According to what is said on TV, at this time, you should not bow down in unison: Are you stupid!
Xiong Huai shook his head, like a fanatical believer, and said: "The dream that the widow just said is actually only half of what he said, and the remaining half is very important, so I have to explain to the two virtuous ministers separately." β
Zhao Yu was already startled, and looked at the King of Chu in surprise, could it be that the King of Chu really had a spring dream last night.
Reminiscent of the legend that Wu Ding Fu said.
Could it be that the king of Chu has taken a fancy to his daughter!
Zhao Yu said angrily: "King, according to the ancient etiquette handed down from ancient times, the same surname is not married, please don't be rude." β
He sighed lightly and said regretfully: "King, the eldest daughter of Weichen has been married, and the younger daughter is under the age of ten, and she will have to wait a few years before she can reach her." β
βΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·β
Xiong Huai looked at the two people who had been slow to get on the set and didn't know where to go, he was speechless for a while, and could only sneer: "The two virtuous people misunderstood the widow, and the widow left the two of them, but there is one thing to say, that is, last night in the dream, the fairy asked the widow to build the glass crystal palace, and the widow refused on the grounds that it cost a lot." β
"After the widow's hard work, the fairy finally gave the widow two secret recipes to support the widow in building the Crystal Palace."
Glass Crystal PalaceΒ·Β·Β·
As soon as Zhaoyu heard that the king of Chu really wanted to build a crystal palace, he was in a hurry, this year the glass is less than gold, to build a palace made of glass, how much does it cost, even if his old life is opened, I am afraid it will not be built, and then the people will be hurt and the money will be lost, and he will inevitably lose his life.
"This..." Zhaoyu's face was full of disbelief, and he immediately said: "King, the dream realm is illusory, and it must not be taken seriously. β
Unlike Zhaoyu's attitude, he has doubts in his heart, and he looks sure on the surface.
As the leader of Chu Mo, whether he believes in the ghosts and gods or not, he must show a very sure appearance.
Because of Mozi's teachings, Mozi pays attention to heaven and ghosts, and hopes to use the will of heaven to restrain the king and the ghosts and gods to restrain the people, so as to achieve the goal of the great rule of the world.
For this reason, after hearing Zhaoyu's answer, he immediately retorted: "Although not all the things in the dream realm are true, they may not all be false. In the past, King Wen dreamed of flying bears and won the Taigong, and Emperor Wu Ding dreamed of gods and got Fu said, when the Yellow Emperor had a goddess of heaven, there was a goddess who came to help the Yellow Emperor to break the Chi You ("The Classic of Mountains and Seas"), how can this matter be said to be ethereal. β
Zhao Yu looked at the tooth and was immediately furious, but he also knew that the tooth was defending the doctrine of the Mo family, and if he argued with him about whether there were ghosts and gods, he would definitely not be able to compete with him, so he could only salute the state of Chu and say, "Please check carefully." β
Seeing this, he also knew that the matter of building the Crystal Palace was really not a good thing, so he took a step back and said: "King, didn't the fairy give the king two secret recipes, as long as they are verified, if the secret recipe is true, then the fairy is naturally true, if the secret recipe is fake, then the things in the dream are naturally fake, the matter of the crystal palace, please don't mention it again, Weichen would rather die than be called." β
