Su Fu hadn't heard of bicycles, let alone seen bicycles, so he said, "......What does the emperor mean?"

Li Zicheng didn't know whether Su Fu was pretending to be stupid or afraid of new things, so he said leisurely: "Don't hide it from Su Dong, this kind of bicycle has appeared in Xining, and it can travel forty miles per hour, and if it is a young man with good physical strength, he can exercise up to two hundred miles for five hours a day......

"Two hundred miles?" Su Fu almost exclaimed, if he could travel two hundred miles in a day, it would be of great help to business.

Li Zicheng told Su Fu that the bicycle is a kind of machinery that only needs simple maintenance and does not need forage for war horses; The bicycle will not get tired, maybe in one day, the speed is comparable to that of a war horse, but if it is a few days, even ten days, half a month, it is the best war horse, and it is not as good as a bicycle.

Su Fu didn't speak, he had been listening carefully, as pious as a schoolboy.

If these words were not from the mouth of the emperor, he would never believe it......

After Li Zicheng finished speaking, he reacted and said carefully: "Your Majesty, is there really a bicycle in the world?" ”

Li Zicheng smiled lightly: "In Xining and Lanzhou, bicycles are no longer unusual, even ordinary businesses and large households will have bicycles at home!"

Su Fu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the grass people...... How can grass farmers produce bicycles? ”

Li Zicheng said with a smile: "In Nanjing, Su Dongzhu was the first person to come into contact with bicycles, I wonder if Su Dongzhu believes what I said?" ”

"Believe, believe!" Su Fu said one after another, the emperor said goldenly, who would dare not believe it?

"If you want to produce bicycles, you have to buy a complete set of production technology for bicycles," Li Zicheng said: "According to its actual value, it can be worth at least 50,000 taels of silver, but it is ......."

Su Fuxin said: 50,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, this is just the purchase of technology, if you want to produce bicycles, you also need plants, labor, materials, etc......

Li Zicheng understood in his heart that in a completely unfamiliar field, investing tens of thousands or even 100,000 taels of silver at one time does require courage, even if Su Fu is extremely rich, he will not think about future gains, so he said: "Those who study technology also need silver to eat, but he has already sold the technology in Lanzhou, and he will sell it in Beijing in the future, so the owner of the technology said that it only needs 10,000 taels, which can be regarded as making some contributions to the development of the Jiangnan economy and helping the people get rich." ”

"Ten thousand taels?"

"Don't think that I am selling technology cheaply," Li Zicheng said: "I have conditions to buy technology with 10,000 taels of silver." ”

"Please make it clear to the emperor!"

"First, the owner of the Soviet Union and his relatives, regardless of whether they are officials in the future or not, are not allowed to participate in party struggles and must not donate money for people with ulterior motives."

"The grass people obey the holy oracle!"

"Second, the people must not be exploited, the eight prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River have not implemented the "Land Law", that is to say, the people who lack land have not benefited from the new dynasty Huaxia, the manufacturers in Jiangnan have the responsibility to provide a job for the people, the remuneration can not be too low, the court will formulate relevant laws in the future, the merchants want to eat meat, and they have to give the people a little soup, they work hard for the merchants, and the merchants must at least ensure that they live better than the surrounding farmers!"

"This ......" Su Fu didn't dare to agree for a while.

Li Zicheng said: "Not only the proprietor of the Soviet Union, but also the laws of the imperial court, and all the merchants in the eight prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River must be implemented!" It depends on whether the owner of the Su takes the lead in enforcing the laws of the imperial court. ”

Sufford's brain was racing fast.

Although he is extremely rich, he is a businessman after all, and the status of a businessman in Daming is extremely low, and the merchant is only stronger than the humblest ordinary military household, and even the lowly peasant is not as good.

On weekdays, when I met officials, they were all inferior, but today I was a guest in the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, talking face-to-face with the emperor and planning for the future.

What surprised him even more was that although he was born into a merchant family, his understanding of merchants seemed to be inferior to that of the emperor, who was born in the army, and the emperor said a lot of new words in his mouth, which he had never heard of.

What made him feel most incredible was that the emperor told him that merchants were not the most profitable industry, and that if they opened factories and produced all kinds of novel goods, the profits were far greater than the income of ordinary merchants......

"I have no one, and I am superior to everyone"!

This is the wise saying of the business, and it is also a secret that is not passed on, how many people can do it?

The emperor sold bicycle production technology at a price of 10,000 taels of silver, saying that it was half sold and half given away, but was there any ulterior behind it?

If the emperor used means, that is, to ask him to donate tens of thousands of taels of silver, could he still refuse?

It's just 10,000 taels, and the bicycle production technology is also sold! Such an emperor is really incomprehensible!

After going back, you must be cheeky to ask Mu Qingshan for advice, Mu Qingshan has followed the emperor since Xining, if there is any merchant in this world who knows the emperor best, this person must be Mu Qingshan!

Su Fu suddenly remembered that the emperor was still waiting for him to talk, and hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The grass people are willing to abide by the laws of Huaxia and listen to the emperor's teachings!"

Li Zicheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, obviously it was a chance to give Su Fu a fortune, and it was like a fate! But the overall situation has been decided, and his mood has also relaxed.

Li Zicheng and Su Fu talked for a long time, from the prospect of bicycles to the development direction of the country, from the nature of the "special zone" in the south of the Yangtze River, to the people's way of life, he finally told Su Fu that an excellent and responsible businessman should not only pursue the greatest economic benefits, but also create huge social benefits for the society and the country!

When Su Fu left the Qianqing Palace, it was already dinner time.

Li Xiangjun and Zhou Qingrou sent delicious meals, the number of portions was not much, only six dishes and two soups, but they were very exquisite, which showed that they worked the meal.

The second daughter is used to sitting and eating with Li Zicheng, but Liu Ru is standing aside, she is completely a female slave in the palace, no matter how Li Xiangjun and Zhou Qingrou persuade her, she just refuses to enter the table.

Li Zicheng understood in his heart that although Liu Ru was "voluntarily" staying in the palace to serve herself, she was afraid that she would not be able to let go of Qian Qianyi's feelings for a while, and now it should still be a stage of love and hate, and she couldn't be in a hurry, so she said lightly: "Since Miss Liu stays in the palace, don't treat yourself as a guest, sit down and eat!"

Liu Ru glanced at Li Zicheng, and didn't know what to do for a while, sit down, that is to classify himself into the same category as Li Xiangjun and Zhou Qingrou; If he refused, he sat down at the table, and he saved Li Zicheng's face.

Li Zicheng is the emperor after all, she is an orphan girl from a courtyard, what can she do to the emperor? Even Qian Qianyi, a soft bone, gave himself up......

Anyone in the world can be offended, but the emperor can't be offended!

This Li Zicheng is also really, he eats when he eats, what kind of "eating with beauty"?

Li Xiangjun saw that Liu Ru was hesitant, so he got up and took her little hand, and chuckled: "If you are a sister, the emperor's golden mouth has been opened, do you want to resist the decree?" ”

Liu Ru didn't expect Li Xiangjun to raise the matter of dining to the level of the holy decree, so he secretly glanced at Li Zicheng, let Li Xiangjun pull him to the table, and sat opposite Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng saw that Liu Ru kept a straight face, and estimated that she might be thinking about Qian Qianyi, so she was bored, hurriedly had dinner, and threw away the bowls.

At this time, it was a hot day, Li Zicheng wanted to bathe as usual, Li Xiangjun said casually while cleaning up the dishes: "I want to clean up the dishes, Sister Qingrou will prepare hot water, if my sister prepares refreshing clothes first, I will wait for the emperor to bathe in a while!"

Liu Ru was taken aback, she was very smart, she naturally understood the meaning of the word "waiting", she was stunned for a while, hurriedly grabbed the bowl, and said: "Sister Xiangjun, the sister is clumsy, I'm afraid the service is not good, the emperor wants to blame, let the sister clean up the dishes!"

"Isn't my sister willing to serve the emperor?" Li Xiangjun smiled lightly and pushed Liu Ru away, "Sister, don't be afraid, there is always a first time for this kind of thing......"

Liu Ru didn't speak, just twisted her body and wore it to Zhou Qingrou's side like a butterfly, "Sister Qingrou, my sister has just entered the palace, I don't know where the clothes are, and I don't know the emperor's preferences, my sister will go to boil water, and my sister will serve the emperor to bathe in a while!"

Regardless of whether Zhou Qingrou agrees or not, she has already flashed out.

Li Zicheng not only shook his head and sighed, "Her heart is still not here!"

Li Xiangjun put down the dishes he was cleaning up and said, "Does the emperor want to drive her out of the palace?" ”

Li Zicheng smiled faintly and said, "Let it be, if her heart is not here, I will allow her to leave the palace." ”

Li Xiangjun learned from Liu Ruyi's appearance and gave Li Zicheng a roll of his eyes, "This is not the emperor's temperament!"

Li Zicheng laughed, "Xiangjun, my heart has always been on national affairs!"

"The slave knows!" Li Xiangjun smiled, winked at Li Zicheng's beautiful eyes, and said: "So, these little things, just leave them to the slave maid, the slave maid will send the younger sister to the emperor's dragon bed!"

"Why is Xiangjun so sure?"

"If it's my sister, I just can't wipe my face for a while!" Li Xiangjun didn't say anything about the earrings, but she knew in her heart that Liu Ru had inadvertently left herself in the palace from the moment she accepted the earrings.

It's not that she doesn't want to, but she lacks an opportunity, a reason to convince herself!

If the emperor is strong, she will definitely not resist!

Li Zicheng was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Xiangjun, why did you do this?" If Miss Liu serves me, you will have one more opponent!"

Li Xiangjun sighed leisurely: "Will there be fewer women in the emperor?" There are seventy-two concubines in three palaces and six courtyards, and there are 3,000 beauties in the harem...... There are so many concubines in the emperor, and I don't care if I am a sister!"

Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Xiangjun is a faint monarch who regards me as absurd and shameless? ”

"Whether the emperor is faint or not has no direct relationship with the number of women in the harem, the key is whether these women involve too much energy and mind of the emperor, and whether they consume the emperor's ambition!"

Li Zicheng couldn't say anything against it for a while, and he couldn't help but be impressed by Li Xiangjun, and let himself admit women into the palace, and he said it so high-soundingly.

Li Xiangjun said with a smile: "For example, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, there are many women in the palace, and Empress Xiao, who once wandered the Turks, is included in the palace, but who can deny that she is a wise and martial emperor?" ”

"Those who know me, Li Xiangjun also!" Li Zicheng got up, patted Li Xiangjun's little face, and asked her to clean up the dishes quickly, and then clean up her body, and she will go to bed tonight!
