Fu Yuanling pointed to the simple map of Shangjing drawn by himself on the booklet, leaned on Xiao Jiuqi's arms and whispered: "You see, Shangjing is so big, with a population of millions, what a business opportunity this is. In the past, the Fu family made a small amount of money in Shangjing, but now as long as the five families of Nie Wuyan and Jiang Yi are tightly tied together with the business alliance, then the business of this piece of Shangjing is all in my hands. When the fourth brother really has that day in the future, we will give this piece of foundation to the fourth brother to start the first step to deter the courtiers, the court has a large tax revenue account, and the fourth brother's household department has money and grain, and our great cadre will inevitably come to a prosperous era. ”

When the time comes, Xiao Jiuqi will not be able to hide the master of the high fortune and be hidden by the bird's bow, pave the last step for the king of Chu, and send him to Qingyun Peak, and they can also retreat with their whole body and be a free couple.

Xiao Jiuqi had never thought about such a distant thing, the farthest thing he thought about was to help his fourth brother ascend to the storage position, and the closest thing he thought about was the war in Northern Xinjiang.

His daughter-in-law has thought of helping his fourth brother build a prosperous world?

Xiao Jiuqi looked at Fu Yuanling, and suddenly felt that his heart was pounding hard, as long as he thought about that scene, the people of Daqian had surplus food in every household, they had enough food and wore new clothes, they had children in the family to go to school, men could marry daughters-in-law, and women had rich dowries, it seemed really good.

Shengshi, the old man of his family has been working hard all his life to build a prosperous dynasty.

"Is it that easy?" Xiao Jiuqi asked dreamily, he didn't know how to do business, but there were many families doing business in Beijing, and he didn't see anyone with such a big tone as his daughter-in-law.

"Of course it's not easy." Fu Yuanling looked at the map he drew with his own hands, "It's a big job, but this alone can't rely on this, this can only feed the people, but it can't let them have more surplus wealth." ”

Xiao Jiuqi looked confused when he heard this, "Then what should I do?" ”

Letting him lift a knife to kill the enemy is as simple as chopping a melon, but he really doesn't understand much about this.

"For example, the people plant mulberry and raise silkworms, and the silk spit out by silkworms can be made into silk, and the silk can be made into clothes, which forms a line, planting mulberry and raising silkworms to build a brocade workshop, and the brocade produced by the brocade workshop can be sent to the embroidery village to make clothes, and the clothes will be sold to the people. Moreover, when the time comes, the imperial court can establish a brocade workshop to train female embroidery workers, so that women can grow and improve the national embroidery skills, and it will be profitable for silk to be exported overseas in the future. Moreover, the gradual popularization of cotton and silk among the people will promote the birth of all kinds of textile tools, such as iron collars, slingshots, spinning wheels, the increase in demand for these things will promote the development of iron smelting, and gradually form a huge market, when the people have support, the court has taxes. ”

Xiao Jiuqi was addicted to listening, "What else?" ”

Fu Yuanling looked at him and said with a smile: "That's more, in addition to this, there is also the vigorous promotion of the seaport, which will make the manufacture of Daqian ships more and more prosperous." The government-run workshops of Daqian are mainly engaged in boats, warships, and troop carriers, while the shipbuilding workshops of our Fu family are mainly engaged in the manufacture of ships and pleasure boats, and now they are mainly engaged in the manufacture of seagoing ships. However, as the laws of the seaports became more and more perfect, the whole shipbuilding workshop was a huge money-making tool, and the people of the coastal area would benefit. ”

Fu Yuanling took the red date tea soup handed to her by Xiao Jiuqi and took a sip, "Besides this, have you forgotten our mine in Southern Xinjiang?" Nowadays, the Holy Lord attaches great importance to ore smelting, and the hardness of the ore found in southern Xinjiang is better than that of Daqian, in addition to this, I heard that the emperor has ordered the officials of Daqian to dig more barren mountains and try to find more ore to smelt. Once the method of smelting gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin ores is improved, it will promote the smelting industry of Daqian. There are a lot of steelmaking methods passed down by the people, and the Fu family has collected more than a dozen, among which the steel-filling method feels promising. ”

"Steel-filled method?"

Fu Yuanling nodded, "The so-called iron and steel, with soft iron bending plate, is to trap pig iron in the middle, seal the mud and refine it, and forge it into the order, which is called group steel, also known as steel filling." It's just that although he has obtained the method now, he has not yet been tested, so he needs the support of the imperial court. After all, now that the imperial court is controlling mines and smelting more and more strictly, there is always a way to use it. ”

Xiao Jiuqi looked at his A-Yuan with a complicated expression, "How do you know so much?" ”

"The more places I walk, the more things I see, and the more books I read, the more I naturally see. It's just that I'm just talking about it now, and I haven't put it into experimentation yet. Fu Yuanling sighed, "Look, these are big businesses, once they are spread, it will be more than a day of money." ”

Xiao Jiuqi didn't sleep much this night, his mind was full of Fu Yuanling's words, and he lost sleep again.

Sitting up in the middle of the night, looking at A-Yuan, who was sleeping soundly, he was in a trance as if he was dreaming.

They are all people who grew up eating food, how can there be such a big gap.

He also read a lot of books, but compared to the books Fu Yuanling read, it seems that the books he read have all entered the belly of a dog.

Xiao Jiuqi remembered that no matter where Fu Yuanling opened a shop, he would ask the local steward to collect books, especially ancient books.

In the past, he thought it was just for Fan Daru and his wife, but now that he thinks about it, his face hurts.

In the past, when he went to find Fu Yuanling, she was either reading the account book or holding the book, she didn't pay attention to it at the beginning, but now she thinks about it, and her face hurts even more when she thinks about it.

While he was busy causing trouble, his daughter-in-law was studying ancient books.

So now she can talk about the Tao, but she is like a waste, and her eyes are shining with golden light.

Xiao Jiuqi pondered for a night, feeling that he had accumulated several lifetimes of blessings, probably so that he could meet her.

Otherwise, how could he marry such a good daughter-in-law.

Therefore, his fourth brother is destined to sit in that position, otherwise wouldn't his daughter-in-law's business experience only be held in his stomach?

No way!

Xiao Jiuqi can't help with anything else, but this one can!

Xiao Jiuqi, who had been decadent all night, finally figured it out at dawn, and happily pondered that this was called a match made in heaven!

When Fu Yuanling opened his eyes in the morning, he saw Xiao Jiuqi sitting stupidly, with a weird smile on his face, and he was almost shocked.

It's scary to wake up early in the morning without sleeping.

"Why did you wake up so early?" Fu Yuanling slowly sat up and asked.

Hearing this, Xiao Jiuqi turned his head and looked at Fu Yuanling, "Daughter-in-law, Ah Yuan, I figured it out, don't worry, what you want to do will come true." ”

Fu Yuanling: ?

What's crazy about this early morning?

Xiao Jiuqi didn't know that Fu Yuanling didn't expect him to go on the same line, so he helped Fu Yuanling to get up, and said happily: "I'll go to the fourth brother today, I have to let the fourth brother know how hard you are." ”

Fu Yuanling was dumbfounded, what does this have to do with King Chu?
