Chapter 312 Modern Books
Sitting at the stone table in the yard, neither of them spoke.
"Don't you have anything to ask me?" Luo Tingshan asked curiously.
Zhu Mingqing's lips twitched slightly: "If I'm not mistaken, you want to win over your senior brother?"
Luo Tingshan sighed: "You are really smart. The external situation is unstable now, so we must make preparations early."
The reason for asking senior brother to come here is to teach Huai'er more.
He also confessed his intention in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually left those students from Jiangnan behind and came here with only a servant.
Now I keep Huai'er here because I want to test her.
If he can pass, Huai'er will surely be able to get a teacher.
Zhu Mingqing had never heard of Zheng Wei's name, but since Luo Tingshan trusted him so much, and thinking about his past, he was indeed a capable person.
Teaching the future emperor is not an easy task.
Squeak——
The door opened.
Luo Huai came out holding a stack of papers.
Zheng Wei gave him three days to answer the above questions one by one, and he was not allowed to ask others for help.
Is he suitable to be his apprentice? Do he share the same political views? How will he be trained in the future?
All will be revealed in three days.
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
When Zhu Mingqing heard the news again, Zheng Wei had decided to stay.
But he never mentioned taking in disciples.
However, he also started teaching Luo Huai.
To be honest, Zheng Wei was surprised when he first saw the homework handed in by Luo Huai.
Although I know that this person must have received a good education, his intelligence and courage are reflected in the article. I think what he experienced during this period of time has indeed dealt a heavy blow to this young man.
"Mr. Zheng?" Luo Huai looked respectful but spoke in a questioning tone.
Zheng Wei smiled and said, "No problem. From today on, you will live here with me. Here is the daily class schedule. Do you have any objections?"
From classics, history, and literature to agriculture, sericulture, farming, and weaving, from top to bottom, it involves every aspect of a country's operation...
Luo Huai was shocked by Mr. Zheng's talent.
"I will definitely live up to your high expectations!" he said solemnly.
Zheng Wei laughed heartily: "You are wrong. I do not have any high expectations. As long as you can live up to yourself, that's all that matters!"
Luo Huai frowned slightly, then regained his composure in a second.
If there is no expectation, it means that the other party has not yet recognized you.
He will try his best!
Zhu Mingqing also noticed how hard the child worked. It was said that he only slept two hours a day.
"Now is the critical period for your growth. If you don't sleep well, watch out for your height!" Zhu Mingqing warned.
Without waiting for Luo Huai's response, she handed him some more books, all of which she had found in the Immortal Palace last night.
Luo Huai casually opened one of the books called The Prince and was shocked.
"These books..."
Zhu Mingqing replied, "Look at it yourself, don't let outsiders know."
It was by chance that after the fourth restoration of the Immortal Mansion, it was discovered that the room next to the bedroom had become a small study.
Some of the books inside were completely incomprehensible, and the characters were also strange. The little world spirit explained that these were the characters of the world of immortal cultivation.
And there are also some basic introductory exercises.
However, this world does not have abundant spiritual energy, so these books can only be put aside for now.
However, Zhu Mingqing also discovered some books from modern times.
For people of this era, any book they pick up is like a treasure!
As for the origins of these books, Little Jie Ling was not very clear.
Zhu Mingqing didn't care even more.
You should know that most of these modern books are related to food, clothing, housing and transportation, and there are also a small number of history books.
What Zhu Mingqing took out were nothing more than books that he had copied after making some cover-ups.
Luo Huai no longer needed anyone to worry about, and Zhu Mingqing also turned his attention to the process of collecting animals.
As for this restoration, because the Luo family has quickly established a foothold in Youzhou, every Huaxiang building has become an information point for collecting intelligence.
Many people heard that the Luo family had started collecting all kinds of animals, and they would receive one or two taels of silver for sending them as long as they were of different species.
If it is a rare species, the reward will be even higher.
One hundred thousand kinds of animals would cost at least one hundred thousand taels.
The gold mine in the Immortal Palace is being mined rapidly, so there should be no shortage of silver. However, the iron mine is also progressing rapidly, and the number of people has grown from dozens at the beginning to five hundred.
And they are all former Luo family soldiers!
The speed at which they recruit talent is truly admirable.
Zhu Mingqing also knew that without Luo Tingshan's help, Luo Huai would certainly not be able to consolidate the Luo family's power so quickly.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg.
In response to this, Zhu Mingqing estimated that the other party's spiritual honey was almost running out, so he sent someone to deliver a month's supply.
Luo Tingshan was not unaware of the abnormality, but he did not utter a single word related to spiritual honey.
Gradually, the relationship between the two underwent a subtle change.
No one asks too many questions, but if something happens to the other party, they will never stand idly by.
…
"Madam, Master Wan is back!" Wen Baolu walked into the yard in surprise.
Zhu Mingqing stood up happily: "Where are they?"
"I'm already waiting at the inn. Do you want to see me now?" Wen Baolu asked.
Of course I want to see you.
After Zhu Mingqing dressed up, he came to the inn room, and Master Wan also stood up with a smile.
"Mrs. Zhu, long time no see!"
"Master Wan, thank you for your hard work along the way!"
After some pleasantries, the topic turned to their trip to the frontier.
Mr. Wan also recounted the thrill of this incident. When they were bypassing Jicheng, perhaps someone had leaked the news, but General Xu actually sent troops to guard all the checkpoints.
However, they had limited food with them, and their roads were blocked, so they almost starved to death in the mountains.
Later, for unknown reasons, they suddenly withdrew.
Mr. Wan did not care about the danger of traveling at night, and led his team to bypass the mountain road and leave Nanxia that night.
I thought everything would go smoothly afterwards, but unfortunately, we encountered a once-in-a-century storm.
The group had to retreat back to the forest, which delayed them for another three days.
When the sugar arrived at the royal court, it caused a rush for it. Many nobles wanted to buy more, and some surrounding tribes also sent people after hearing the news.
There were constant disputes and they almost broke out into a fight.
Later, it was the eldest prince Una who stepped forward and decided to divide the 300,000 kilograms of sugar into shares, thus stopping the dispute.
In the days that followed, Mr. Wan stayed in the royal court until the business deal was settled.
In the future, the supply will be 300,000 kilograms per month.
Originally, the eldest prince Una wanted 300,000 tons, and Master Wan spat out a mouthful of tea at that time.
He understood the Ming family's production capacity, and even if he sold himself, he would not be able to supply the needs.
"Madam Ming, three hundred thousand catties a month should be enough, right?" Master Wan asked tentatively. Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, he quickly offered to help: "If we expand the sugar factory, I believe many people will come to work here."
Zhu Mingqing smiled and said, "Master Wan, there's no need to worry about the production. It seems you've made a lot of money on this business trip. Do you have any leads on the horse purchase?"
