Chapter 325: Walking on the road to strengthening soldiers and enriching the country

However, his sympathy for Li Wei lasted for less than three minutes. This poor person must be hateful, and this sentence is correct. Chen Yuan didn't know where Li Wei was hateful. The next thing Renzong said made Chen Yuan very sure. At least, this hateful Li Wei was extremely hateful in the eyes of the eldest princess!

Renzong continued, "Then Li Wei's mother is really too powerful. I don't want to say anything more to her. This is how you have a better identity. I think you can talk to Li Wei and persuade his mother if you have the chance. It may be effective. As long as they promise not to mention this matter again, I will send the eldest princess back in person."

From Chen Yuan's perspective, Renzong's actions were already a good sign of a father-in-law. He personally sent the eldest princess back, which was tantamount to apologizing to the Li family for this matter with his identity! What else can I say?

Don’t say he is the emperor! Even if an ordinary family encounters such a thing, the father-in-law will come to the door to apologize in person. If he still talks about a favor, at least he will give the woman another chance, right?

Chen Yuan immediately clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is kind!"

Renzong shook his head bitterly: "Oh! My daughter is a person with pure nature and filial piety. She was only thirteen years old at the time. I was sick and bedridden. She knelt in front of the door and prayed for me. This time I heard that she was like a shrew in the end. I really couldn't believe what others said was true. But when I saw her,"

Renzong couldn't continue to say it anymore. Obviously, the eldest princess's appearance had already hurt Renzong. After a while, he continued: "Li Wei is not the kind of unreasonable person. After he knew that the eldest princess liked poetry and painting, he specially invited someone to teach him, obviously to cater to the eldest princess. I really don't understand, where is their problem?"

Seeing that Renzong stopped talking, Chen Yuan continued: "Long live, Caomin thought it might be Liang Huaiji."

Once a woman changes her mind, Li Wei will do nothing. In her opinion, your love for her is just a manifestation of your cowardice. When you learn those poems and paintings, she will only think that you are being arty.

Renzong nodded: "Well, Liang Huaiji was originally a retainer of the princess. He was the eunuch in the palace, but why didn't I see anything wrong with them back then?"

Renzong was curious, and Chen Yuan was even more shocked: "What? Liang Huaiji is a eunuch?!"

"you do not know?"

Chen Yuan really doesn’t know! If he knew, he would definitely not always use this normal model to think about the princess’s problem!

Liang Huaiji is a eunuch, which means two things. First, the Li family is too much! A eunuch cannot be really good at killing and spearing. At most, it is a virtual spiritual love. To put it bluntly, it is just some cheapness in the mouth and hands! Is this worth knowing that your Li family makes things happen all over the city?

Second, he now looked extremely despised by Li Wei. A big and thick man was stolen by a eunuch! This made Li Wei's position in Chen Yuan's heart suddenly plummet! He even didn't want to put Li Wei into the ranks of men.

Renzong looked at Chen Yuan's expression and shook his head: "Don't you believe it? I didn't believe it at first. But the eldest princess said, this is true. As an elder, I can only give a harsh lesson, but I can't do anything anymore. Do you understand?"

Of course Chen Yuan understood that at this time the eldest princess was obsessed with Liang Huaiji, and whoever touched Liang Huaiji would be the eldest princess' enemy for the rest of her life! Therefore, Renzong wanted to do it himself. Renzong would not explain it. If he didn't want to do it at this time, he could pretend to be confused. I think Renzong would not be embarrassed for himself.

But how could Chen Yuan give up this opportunity to show off in front of Renzong? He immediately said, "Long live, Caomin understands."

This time, the princess’ affairs were a trouble in the eyes of others. Everyone could hide from afar. Chen Yuan did not hide because he was different from others!

If you handle this matter yourself, you will not only win the favor of Renzong's mind, but also establish an image of being able to do things. This image is very important for Chen Yuan about to enter the officialdom!

Although he did something big in the Liao Kingdom, none of the ministers saw it. Now, I must seize the opportunity to show myself and seize every opportunity!

This matter is troublesome, but every opportunity is wrapped layer by layer with trouble and danger. Only when you solve the problem that the outer layer of it may damage your coat will the opportunity be thrown into your arms.

Liang Huaiji and Chen Yuan quickly got all the information about this person. No matter how capable you are, you can get the eldest princess from a strong man, but for the sake of your position in Renzong's mind, you can only borrow your shoulders to step on it!

This is not a difficult task for Chen Yuan. He believed that a eunuch had no love. Liang Huaiji's actions may be due to the perverted mentality of satisfying his unrealized mentality after possessing the princess.

Chen Yuan guessed very clearly that if he could, he would use money to solve the problem. But if not, he could use some extraordinary means. The bottom line is not to kill anyone.

Chen Yuan decided to find Liang Huaiji tomorrow, and clearly told him that he must leave the eldest princess now, otherwise he would be rude to him. Doing this will let the eldest princess know that once Liang Huairen has something, it has nothing to do with Renzong and Li Wei. This is the result that Renzong wants.

The eldest princess hates that she has no problem. With Renzong holding on, would Chen Yuan be afraid of this elder sister-in-law?

Renzong suddenly changed his words: "I heard from Zhao Yi that you want to take out the money and help Zeng Gongliang study his weapons?"

Of course Chen Yuan wanted to! Sponsoring Zeng Gongliang not only benefited the country, but also had great benefits for him. Although the road to strengthening the army was huge, if it was successful, the direct and indirect benefits were immeasurable.

First of all, the army needs in the process were a huge astronomical figure. Once you sponsor a unit of Renzong's experiment to succeed, there is a good reason to take over the demands of the entire Song army.

Also, if you fight, transportation and supplies are astronomical. Of course, the biggest advantage is that when your tentacles reach the military industry, you can control a part of the army. At least you can make the Baishan Camp you are preparing to form again have the best equipment in this time and space! To some extent, Hu Yanqing and others can give priority to providing various weapons suitable for naval combat.

This is Chen Yuan's method. He did not think about becoming a general himself. He was a businessman and his best job was to do business. Some people might say that the Song Dynasty was a scholarly era, and it was very stupid to not study to do business.

But Chen Yuan doesn't think so. People should do what they are best at when they live. It is very correct to let cats catch mice. But what if you let mice catch cats? When a person has such creativity, there will definitely be many people applauding him, extraordinary! The courage is commendable!

But he only faced one result in the end, that is, becoming a laughing stock for others.

Chen Yuan will never give up what he is best at. He entered the officialdom just to make his business bigger!

Tentacle Military Industry is just his first goal and a way to explore the way. Whether it is the officials in the Song Dynasty or Renzong himself, Chen Yuan is not very clear about where the bottom line of merchant intervention is.

Zhao Yi had already opened the door for him. Now Renzong asked, just to give himself a chance. I can reach in. It depends on this time!

"Long live, although the grass people do not know the general idea, the principle that the country can only be rich is still very clear. The grass people once read the "Wu Jing Zongyao" by Lord Zeng Gongliang. Although they don't know what the effect of the battlefield is, it is always right to try it."

Chen Yuan would not brag about the power of "The General Yao of Wu Jing". Although he knew that this book led the war for hundreds of years in later generations, the more powerful the thing was, the more it had to belittle its value now. Only by making others realize how precious this item is, can he have the opportunity to take it down at the lowest price! After taking it down, the more surprises it can be given to Renzong!

Furthermore, "The General Yao of Wu Jing" is still in the stage of Zeng Gongliang drafting. Now, even Zeng Gongliang and others may not realize the impact of this book on future generations, so it seems reasonable for Chen Yuan to say this.

Renzong nodded: "Yes, I think so too. Zeng Gongliang didn't want much, just 50,000 guan. In addition, he armed an army to conduct experiments, but only 200,000 guan. I can give out the money. But those censors were unwilling to do it."

When Chen Yuan heard this, he immediately knelt down: "Caomin is willing to share the worries of the emperor! Caomin prepares for the emperor for the 200,000 yuan, so there is no need for the emperor to take out a copper coin!"

Renzong looked at him and asked with a smile: "You have made a lot of money, right?"

Chen Yuan felt that there was no need to hide his assets now. As long as Renzong believed that he had the ability to take on this burden, Renzong would give up the carry to him!

"Caomin has some capital, which is enough to support Lord Zeng's needs."

Renzong nodded: "Yes, there are many people doing business in the Song Dynasty, but like you, not many people from a poor scholar to hundreds of thousands of dollars in just two years. How much did you gain in that trip in Liao Kingdom? Can you tell me?"

Chen Yuan said: "This, Caomin brought back 160,000 guan from the Liao Kingdom. When he shared the same amount with some brothers, Caomin lost 80,000 guan. Later, Grand Master Pang rewarded Caomin nearly 40,000 guan. After Lu Xiangguo gave the coffin book to Caomin, it looked like 150,000."

Lu Yijian's coffin was far more than 30,000, but Chen Yuan knew that if he told the truth, it would be like Lu Yijian behind his back. He still had to tell the lie he should tell. But he would not be so polite to Lao Pang. This old guy is now covered by his daughter and would not be punished by Renzong for embezzling two coins.

Renzong shook his head slightly when he heard this: "It seems that the Grand Master is a bit too much. He gives you more rewards than the coffin book of the Prime Minister. Shimei, I am very happy that you are willing to share my worries, but if the merchants come to pay, I am afraid that those censors will say something about me again. Let's do this, go to the Prime Minister and ask him to write a famous post for you and recommend you to be an official. I will grant you the Guard Division and ask you to assist Zeng Gongliang in the research and development of weapons together."

The Ku Ministry's Adjudication Department is just a middle-level leader in the treasury who is responsible for assisting the management of the chief. Renzong was very skillful in this trick. If Renzong directly issued an order to let Chen Yuan intervene in the production of ordnance, those censors would definitely not let go.

But first give Chen Yuan a custody department so that Chen Yuan can blatantly pay money to work with Zeng Gongliang. No one else can say anything, but the officials pay to do business by themselves. What else do you have to say about this style?

Just like when the current Civil Affairs Director sees a poor family, he immediately takes out all his savings, what else do you think of such a censor? If you say that, it should be a praise.

Chen Yuan knew that he had taken the first step towards his goal! The Song Dynasty was originally a wealthy country, and what he lacked was a strong enough force! Can he build such a force to make the barbarians from all directions afraid? Can he use this open door to interpret a different Chen Shimei to everyone?
