Seeing Song Jiu take away twenty future personal students like an old hen, Liu Yi said: "Your Highness, are you asking too much?"

You should know that there are so many officials from the Ministry of Works and the Third Department. It is too difficult for Xiao Songjiu to think of increasing the output of one million kilograms of pig iron a year with just one Xiao Songjiu.

Zhao Kuangyi opened the two paintings. These two paintings were made of meat buns and dogs. There was no return. Fortunately, the painter was cheap. The final draft was confirmed and there was no need to make drafts or modify them. It didn’t cost much money to draw them again. Liu Yi took a look and said, “It’s so beautiful.”

“It’s beautiful, Afang Palace is even more beautiful.”

"Your Highness, it cannot be compared with Afang Palace."

"I know, otherwise he would have dragged it out to behead him and made public. I mean the cost. I estimate that the cost of a double rainbow bridge is at least 5,000 yuan. If a large amount of iron is used, it may reach 10,000 yuan and 20,000 yuan. I don't know how large it wants to build a college. The cost is 5,000 to 20,000 yuan. I estimate that the cost of this store is at least 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, or even 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. It is only four to five of the twenty paintings, but the cost will reach more than one million yuan. What method do you think he used to collect so much capital?" This bet is difficult to make public, but very few people cannot hide it. For example, the Zhao brothers will not hide it from Zhao Pu, and Zhao Kuangyi will not hide it from his confidant Liu Yi. Zhao Kuangyi is better than Zhao Kuangyin.

Zhao Kuangyin treated his heroes, that is, his confidants, and even strict with him. Therefore, that night, the shadow of the jade axe appeared arrogantly on the window... and the handover was smooth afterwards. However, Zhao Kuangyi was different. He treated his confidants well from beginning to end, including Zhang Yi and others.

“It’s hard…”

"It's not very difficult, it's almost impossible to achieve. I plan to tempt him by twenty children of generals. One person gets an average of two to three thousand yuan. This is not easy, but this money may not be enough to build his main store."

"Your Highness wants to say..."

"But you see that he looks very confident, why? This is the same as when he designed a crane. He has the money for a crane, but he can't get the money for dozens of cranes, and it turns out that he has successfully realized it. Some of his material learning must have been used in the middle. It's still very difficult. Seeing that this house is not beautiful, how can it be built? I asked my official to move his grave for him. If it is successful, it is a good word, if it is not successful, the deceased will be buried in peace, and let me fight to death. Does the official have the face to meet people?"

"yes."

"And he repeatedly talked about using iron. Why can the houses of this bridge be built in strange ways? It is probably related to the large amount of iron used. However, the court's iron is not enough. How can he allocate him 300,000 and 400,000 kilograms of iron a year? Without iron, this bridge and house still cannot be built. But he can figure out how to increase the iron production. What's the harm of giving him the extra iron? And with this effort, it is not too Menglang to move the grave again."

Liu Yi understood that Song Jiu wanted to fulfill the bet. When time comes, he had to invest the money. He had to make a mistake and failed. He had countless difficulties before him, and this was just one of the levels. If he couldn't get through this level, it would be meaningless. If he was cruel, he would be executed for the crime of deceiving the emperor. If he was tolerant, he would cancel the bet as soon as possible, so as not to make a laugh for thousands of years and avoid causing a lot of trouble in relocation.

"Your Highness is wise."

"What a wise man, I am ashamed. When that strange man came to the capital, I was also the prefect of Kaifeng at that time, but I didn't hear any noise. I let the boy watch him leave in a daze. I don't know which country this person comes from. Is it better to those countries than our China (China refers to the country of correctness). Unfortunately, the world is not determined, otherwise the envoy would be sent to the West to take a look."

"The two kings may not be. I have asked those who are trying to find out. They have also said that there are many ancient and developed civilizations in the West. Because of the endless war, many civilizations have been urged to be destroyed and lost."

"Isn't this the case in China? If Zhuge Liang's wooden carriages are there, then deal with Shu..." Zhao Kuangyi changed his words: "Of course, if he did it miraculously, even though it was difficult to enter the two palaces because of his cleverness, he might as well take an official position in the Three Divisions and let him take the position."

"Your Highness, this is the most true. If you can make him successful, what will happen if he uses the resources of a country to use? Just over ten years later, he is at his thirty years old and is a little more mature and steady. Your Highness has a wonderful idea."

The two of them couldn't help but have a lot of fun. It was not a skill to be able to make money, but this kid learned from those rough men and talked about some conscience and loyalty in the world. Although it was not very good, this was a guarantee that he would not be harsh on the people.

...

"Dr. Yan, Dr. Zhang, let the students go on holidays this day," Song Jiu said. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Although the classroom is big, more than 60 students are squeezed in one classroom. They are not children, so it is even hotter. People stand on the blackboard, and the chalk is filtered and filtered out large particles, but the dust cannot be avoided. Rubbed with a kapok wiping, they are flying into their clothes, and they are itchy all over. In addition, sweat is soothing. Students are also using chalk, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and practicing calligraphy. They are used less and expensive. They are also not very happy. Once get out of class is over, they run to the wells in the two yards in front and behind Song Jiu, and water them on their bodies. Or throw their heads into the bucket and drink the cold well water to cool down.

In my previous life, I don’t know how many students could fall down, but in this era, the physical fitness is good. Like salt, including the salt that Song Jiu ate, it can be said that they are poisonous salt, but it’s okay. At most, life is rare in the past seventy years...

Therefore, Song Jiu proposed to have a small vacation on the dog days, a holiday of more than 20 days.

"No, Song Jiu, the court was originally planning to let them be craftsmen, and the professor would be scrambled for only a few months. Seeing that you took them to settle the scores and competitions, I said for another year. Although the court did not make any statement, it was equivalent to silently looking at you for a year. Why is time relaxed? In the future, it is not only to let them be craftsmen, but also to appoint a group of people to be scribble officials. Craftsmen are simple, and they can be craftsmen with just a few words. However, small officials are so easy to do? In just one year, in this year, you often have a holiday, how many days will there be left? Now you have another holiday, no, I won't be allowed!" said Dr. Zhang.

"It's not entirely a holiday. We assign some homework for them to review at home. If you encounter any problems, you can come over to me and Zhu San for advice. Actually, I don't want to have a holiday, but this is not the Imperial College. The house is big, ventilated and cool, and I can drink ice from time to time to relieve the cooling and disinfection department."

"Song Jiu, what is the winter training in the third nine and summer training in the third and low? I am the official appointed by the court. These students are not close to me, but the other is not. In the future, they are just minor officials and will not expect them to repay me. Why do I still want to teach? If the son does not teach, it is the fault of the father. Their families are poor and their parents cannot read. It is impossible to rely on their parents to teach. If they don't teach, it is your and my fault!" said Dr. Yan.

"That's right, why did Liu Bei get Bashu, put people first, and education must also be people first. If you endure this way, not only you, but we will fall together. Whose life will be there?"

"What people-oriented? You are cultivating their lazy spirit." Dr. Yan said loudly.

The students realized that Song Jiu fought with two doctors again, but they did not dare to make a sound. They silently washed the well water and ran to the shade of the trees to enjoy the cool air.

The eldest sister and Yuping walked in together, and the eldest sister said, "Xiao Jiu, why are you arguing with the doctor again?"

Song Jiu was very angry. He made sense, but it was not reasonable in this era. And they would help them because of the fame, age and official positions of the two doctors. They endured their temperament and said the process. Yu Ping smiled and said, "Why fight for this? On the one hand, the heat is on the one hand, and the students' classes cannot be moved. On the other hand, it is better for everyone to make a compromise. It starts at Chen and ends at Si (7:00 am to 11:00 am), and then assign some homework for them to study in the afternoon. Wouldn't all the conflicts be resolved together?"

"This is OK..." Dr. Zhang was still unwilling to do so, but he couldn't solve it, so everyone had to give in to each other.

Dr. Yan was even more unhappy and turned his sleeves away. Dr. Zhang followed him and persuaded him, but it was always not very good to argue.

The eldest sister then stared at Song Jiu and asked, "Xiao Jiu, what's going on with that main store and Shuanghongqiao?"

Song Jiu came back with his students and in the Kaifeng Prefecture Hall, Song Jiu publicly told Zhao Kuangyi that it would also benefit the villagers who were familiar with Hezhong and his ministers. That was to the emperor's younger brother. These students were very moved and came back to spread the news. They mentioned the Shuanghongqiao and the main store. They couldn't hear clearly, and even more so, and the news quickly reached the elder sister's ears. She thought that her younger brother was sneaky during this period, as if Yu Ping was not normal. She did not ask Song Jiu, but asked someone to call Yu Ping personally and asked Yu Ping first. That was Song Jiu's elder sister, half-sister and half-mother. How could Yu Ping not let him go? As soon as the elder sister asked, Yu Ping said it and said that Song Jiu planned to open the main store.

The main store is no longer called business, it is also a business that goes on the table. But how much does it cost to become a main store from scratch? Then ask Shuanghongqiao, the painting Yuping of Shuanghongqiao knows, but I don’t know it has anything to do with Song Jiu.

Regardless of whether it was related or not, the eldest sister was anxious and took Yuping to her parents' home and questioned Song Jiu.

What Song Jiu was most afraid of was that his elder sister was worried. After listening to his elder sister scolding her, he thought for a while and said, "Sister, I have met Your Majesty, and I have really had a heart-to-heart talk with Your Majesty."

"I know, but you can't do things that are foolish."

"Not it, this is also what Your Majesty means. The Bian River is becoming more and more important, and the Hezhou is deserted. Your Majesty wants to transform and see that I know some knowledge of material things and good arithmetics, so he gave me an official position and then called me the Hezhou side, including the future main store, academies, the bridge, and other things. Don't worry."

"Is it the Emperor who asked you to make it?"

"The Emperor allows me to build them." This change means completely different, but the elder sister didn't hear it. If the Emperor wants to build it, then build it. What's wrong with building ten bridges?

"Then will you build it?"

"Sister, don't worry, craftsmen will come to help you, and I will just command and command. Do you still need me to do it yourself?"

"That's right, why didn't you say it earlier, and it made me worry bad."

"That one needs to be designed, it's too early. Maybe there will be changes in the future, so why bother to say it out." Song Jiu fooled his elder sister away, but Yu Ping stayed. She flashed her beautiful big eyes and looked at Song Jiu and said, "Jiulang, you are lying!"

PS: In the fifth year of Huangyou, the Song Dynasty spent six years to build the Wan'andu cross-sea bridge, which was 834 meters long and 7 meters wide, and the cost was 14,000 guan. The manpower was used to serve the people, and even stones were not charged, and the actual cost would be more than 70,000 guan. The Hongqiao was slightly wider than it, and the total length of the two bridges was one-fifth of its length, which seemed to be difficult. The consumption index was 3 to 2, and the future 70,000 is equal to more than 40,000 now. However, if a large amount of steel was used, the cost would be increased by more than two or three times, and the cost would be about 10,000 to 15,000 guan. If the Song Dynasty partially supported it, the cost could be slightly reduced. In the third year of Xiangfu, Cao Cheng, a wealthy businessman in Songzhou, donated 3,000 guan, took out thousands of private books, built 150 houses, and established Juyang Academy. At first, it could only be called a book house, but later the court continued to invest and took out a lot of books, which developed into the four major academies that cultivated Fan Zhongyan.
