"As long as it's oil. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

This was the last sentence Xiao Ming said before sending Wang Shijie away.

At present, he doesn't want to waste too much time on the four families, and the reason why he shares benefits with the four families is just to create the illusion that we are still friends with the four families.

For him, he could not tolerate the existence of a scholar gate lord in his fiefdom, because it would seriously threaten his rule.

The current drawbacks of the Great Yu State are in front of him, and he will not repeat the mistakes of the past.

Sending Wang Shijie away, Xiao Ming sent Qian Dafu to call Pang Yukun over, and now with the output of technology, there will be more and more goods produced in the equipment department and the palace in the future.

Drunken Qingzhou and Perfume He arranged it in the palace, and only the royal family participated, in order to keep it secret.

He didn't believe that other people would be so honest and wouldn't send someone to spy on the process in the Instrument Department and the palace, so he now asked Pang Yukun to officially establish the Patent Department.

The process of the Device Division will all be filed in the Patent Division, and Chen Wenlong will be personally responsible, and any individual, businessman, or official who plagiarizes patents will be sentenced to a felony and directly executed in serious cases.

Anyone who uses the patent is required to pay the patent fee.

Of course, Xiao Ming has no plans to sell patents at present, but patent regulations need to be established in advance.

At the same time, he also discussed with Pang Yukun that any private invention can be patented, so as to promote the research atmosphere of the people.

In addition to the establishment of the Patent Division, the Mineral Department was established at the same time, which was the prelude to Xiao Ming's preparation for the construction of a government-run mine, as long as the minerals were mastered, the industry was in his hands.

Pang Yukun did not have any objection to Xiao Ming's introduction of one measure after another, in his opinion, as long as King Qi was willing to do the right thing, this would be impeccable, and the remaining implementation problems were his problems.

Because the snow stopped, Qingzhou seemed to come to life, and the city suddenly became lively again.

Xiao Ming took advantage of Wang Shijie to buy edible oil, and organized the Wangfu family to make soda ash, although the method of cooking limestone and plant ash together is earthy, it is indeed the most suitable method at present.

In this kind of busyness, the days passed day by day, and on this day, a person suddenly appeared in the palace, and all the people in the palace were boiling.

"Your Highness, Li San is back." Xiao Ming, who was studying how to be able to use disposable soap in large quantities, was suddenly interrupted by the surprise cry of the pothos.

Xiao Ming dropped the brush and laughed: "Counting up the days, I said it was time to come back." “

As he was talking, he saw Li San carrying a package to him, and when he saw Xiao Ming, Li San bowed down and said, "Your Highness, the little slave is back." ”

"No courtesy." Xiao Ming smiled, he was eager to know the details of Li San's trip to Chang'an this time, so he asked, "How about talking about it?" ”

Li San handed the package to the green pothos, and he said: "Concubine Zhen Niangniang sent Liuli to tell me that His Royal Highness's perfume is very popular with the queen's mother, and the concubines in the palace also like it very much. “

Pothos' face flushed with excitement, "I said the ladies would like it." ”

Xiao Ming nodded, it was not normal for them to dislike these magical things, and he asked, "Is there nothing else?" ”

Li San smiled knowingly: "This time, the emperor Longyan Dayue personally instructed Cui Zhang, the household servant, to allocate 200,000 taels of silver to His Royal Highness at the court meeting, saying that if His Highness can be diligent in government affairs in the future, he will give this million taels of silver to His Highness in batches." “

"Slam the door." Xiao Ming was speechless for a moment, this million taels of silver was allocated by the imperial court at the time of every prince's domain.

The purpose is basically the same as the entrepreneurial capital given by modern rich businessmen to the rich second generation.

More than 100 years after the founding of the Great Chongqing State, although the north is constantly in war, but the people in the south live very comfortably, and commerce, handicrafts are also very developed, the annual tax level of the Great Chongqing State can basically be compared with the Song Dynasty in the prosperous period in Xiao Ming's view.

So the court is still rich, and Xiao Wenxuan is still slamming the door with this money, and he can't help but despise it.

At this time, Qian Dafu was also alarmed, walked over, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, 200,000 taels is not a lot, it can always alleviate the urgent need, these silver taels might as well be given to the Mineral Division, this mine needs silver." “

Xiao Ming had a headache and said: "Before you take office, you know that you want silver, and you can't give all the 200,000 taels, only half of them." “

"Your Highness." Qian Dafu said with a smile, 100,000 taels is better than nothing, after the establishment of the Mineral Division, his responsibility is very heavy, because not only coal mines, iron mines, limestone mines, and graphite mines need to be mined, but there are also other mines designated by Xiao Ming.

The 100,000 taels of silver are estimated to be snowflakes in the water, and I can't even hear a sound.

Li San gave Qian Dafu a salute and said, "Your Highness, in addition to the silver given by the emperor, this time Concubine Zhen asked the little slave to bring 200,000 taels of silver tickets to His Highness." ”

"Where did the concubine get so much silver?" Xiao Ming was taken aback.

Li San said: "Naturally, it is the credit of His Royal Highness's perfume, which is the deposit given to His Royal Highness by the mothers, and the reasons for this are all in the letter." “

As he spoke, Li San gave a letter to Xiao Ming.

After opening the letter and looking at it, Xiao Ming suddenly frowned, this silver is all customized special perfumes for the concubines of each palace, but this is not the point.

The point is that Concubine Zhen's letter mentions Empress Zhao and the crown prince, if it is mentioned Empress Zhao, it is understandable, but when it comes to the prince, it is a big problem.

Although Concubine Zhen only mentioned a few words in the letter, Xiao Ming also understood that Empress Zhao's purpose of helping her this time was not simple.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Qian Dafu saw that Xiao Ming's expression was wrong and asked.

"It's troublesome, this was misunderstood with the four princes, this king was assassinated, this time Empress Zhao deliberately pulled this king together as a support for the prince, didn't this king offend all the princes who wanted to abolish the prince." Xiao Ming handed the letter to Qian Dafu.

Sweeping his eyes, Qian Dafu frowned, "That's true, the letter said that Empress Zhao and the crown prince are sympathetic to His Royal Highness's hardships in Qingzhou, and will take out 100,000 taels of silver to Qingzhou with the emperor's silver, which outsiders will understand at a glance." ”

After thinking for a while, Xiao Ming said lazily: "Since this silver has been sent, let's not want it in vain, the most important thing now is the development of the fiefdom, if you can be left and right among the princes, it will be the best." ”

"What His Royal Highness said is that even if there is no prince, His Royal Highness is framed by the four princes, rather than letting the four princes use it, it is better to temporarily stand on the side of the prince to reap the benefits, after all, the prince is orthodox now."

Xiao Ming also thinks so, as long as Xiao Wenxuan is still there, it is almost impossible for the prince to be abolished, if he takes advantage of this time to vigorously develop, and when the prince is abolished, his fief should also be strong at that time, if the prince is not abolished, he is also willing to be a free prince, and other princes are not afraid at that time.
