Chapter 1566: Generals die in a hundred battles
Fang Jifan was completely confused.
He really couldn't understand that the prince's thinking could jump so much.
If you talk about Newton, you can understand the truth of this mechanics from the process of apple falling.
After all... this is a very reasonable thing. You will find what you observe and what you will find in the end.
But Zhu Houzhao... was observing a book that was completely inseparable, but she had such wonderful ideas. Fang Jifan had to admit that Zhu Houzhao must be a madman.
But in this world, madman and genius are always among the front lines.
Seeing Zhu Houzhao dancing, Fang Jifan couldn't accept it for a while.
Zhu Houzhao continued: "The question now is how to calculate, but there is no hurry. Those guys from the calculation academy are a little stupid, but... it's not impossible to use. Lao Fang, I have something to do, so let's go first, and then... by the way, there's another thing..."
He was about to run away, but then he stopped and looked at Fang Jifan seriously and said, "The dividends of the business must be paid to me quickly, which will be of great use."
When Fang Jifan heard Zhu Houzhao talk about silver, he was immediately alert: "What does Your Highness want silver?"
Zhu Houzhao looked as if she was a natural person and said, "Where did the talents come from without money? Who will do research for you?"
OK, that's the truth.
Any research investment requires people first, and people need a lot of financial resources. With the conditions of being able to concentrate on research, spend their entire lives, and study the principles of all things. Then... naturally, it will attract more people to devote themselves to this mathematics.
Zhu Houzhao said: "It was only in your book that I realized that the people in this world value the most. Without silver, they cannot be used. After all, there are too few people who are proficient in math. Only more and more people are proficient in math. Only those stupid people can be driven to calculate, and smart people who stand out from it can open up new directions like me. In short, I need silver, and I will use it."
Seeing Zhu Houzhao's imperative look, and stretched out his hand to him, Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't speak so bluntly. Just say you're short of money. Why bother asking for money like this? I'll go back and check the account. The prince's money is a lot of money. Your Highness, you have to save some money. Please note... we earn hard-earned money..."
The word "money" fell, but Zhu Houzhao had run away.
This guy...
Fang Jifan shook his head.
Your Highness, isn’t it just that he is so anxious?
Fang Jifan hummed the song, thinking that he had triggered such a huge butterfly effect with a verse, just like the Spring and Autumn Period, which brought great changes to the world. Fang Jifan's heart was fulfilled and relieved.
【.】 So I returned to the west with a cheerful mood.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Wang Jinyuan came up to meet him: "Young Master, Zhou Tanzhi is here to raise pigs."
"Oh..." Fang Jifan said in a calm and gentle manner: 'Let him raise him thirty or fifty, he raised well, this is his, he didn't raise well, and I'll go to clean him up personally. Oh, by the way, this Xishan Amusement Park can add another project, called the Minister of the Ministry of Rites to raise pigs, collect tickets, and see what you want to see. There is nothing rare in the world, but this one has not been there since ancient times. You plan the site and use bamboo fences to surround Zhou Tanzhi, the dog and his pig, set up an observation deck nearby. The taller the better. The distance is not far or near, so that people will sell telescopes nearby."
If it were in the past, Wang Jinyuan would have jumped up happily when he heard this.
In fact... it is not profitable to just watch this, but... the operation of this amusement park is essentially about innovating. Only by constantly launching new projects can we attract a large number of people. After they come to visit the Minister of Rites to raise pigs, they cannot go back immediately. They may not be sure, and they will want to experience flying balls or pick strawberries. If they are hungry, they must go to a restaurant for a simple meal. When they are thirsty, there are also people selling sugarcane water and herbal tea along the street. In short, they can always find ways to pay for money.
But today, he seemed a little nervous and whispered: "Young Master is so wise. He actually... can have such a good idea. Even if he has been in eight lifetimes, the villain can't think of it. However... but... not only Zhou Tanzhi, but also the Grand Tutor Wang Ao, came, saying yes... saying yes..."
When Fang Jifan heard this, he narrowed his eyes... he immediately gritted his teeth. Wang Ao obviously wanted him to be unable to get out of Taiwan.
Zhou Tanzhi raised pigs, this was His Majesty's will, and... he did make a mistake.
But Wang Ao is the Grand Tutor, he is not at fault and has a great reputation. If he also comes to raise pigs with Zhou Tanzhi, it will inevitably make people think that this must be Fang Jifan bullying the old minister.
Although Fang Jifan's reputation was already very bad, he didn't care about such an extra charge.
But this is not good after all.
Fang Jifan is a shameless person.
If His Majesty came to ask... what should he answer?
Fang Jifan paused for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, I know, since he likes to raise it, so let's raise it with Zhou Tanzhi. It seems that our signboard needs to be re-opened, and the top should write it. Watch the Taifu and the Minister of Rites raise pigs. This will have a more sensational effect. The young master decided that the tickets will increase by 20% tomorrow!"
Wang Jinyuan frowned and looked at Fang Jifan carefully and said, "Is this wrong? Young master, the villain is afraid..."
Fang Jifan snorted coldly: "Hmph, he dares to raise it, but Fang Jifan still dares to let people know that he is raising it? Get out of the way like a dog."
Wang Jinyuan could only admire the young master's courage in his heart. There was nothing he could not do.
He hurriedly laughed, agreed repeatedly, and went...
…………
When Fang Jifan returned to the house, he never thought that someone was back.
It's Liu Wenshan.
Liu Wenshan had just rushed back to the capital from the West. When he saw his mentor, he felt a lot of feelings. He bowed and said, "Mr. Teacher, students are waiting day and night, thinking about their mentors, students... I miss their mentors to death."
He actually said such stingy words without hesitation.
It can be seen that the emotions he reveals are extremely sincere.
Fang Jifan tried hard to identify the person in front of him, and then he realized that he looked really like Liu Wenshan. Suddenly, Fang Jifan couldn't help but feel moved: "Come on, come on, come on, sit down and talk. My teacher is also thinking about you. I often dream about you. Why did you suddenly come back from the West? What's the situation there?"
Liu Wenshan said seriously: "Mr., the students rushed back without stopping, not just for the Western affairs, but just got news from Franchise. The Spaniards united the German states to attack the Northern Province. They claimed that this was a new crusade. Although Jiang Chen was constantly resisting, the thief was ten times or a hundred times. Within a month, he fell into more than ten fortresses... Junior Brother Jiang knew that the distant water could not save the nearby fire, and he was determined to survive and die with the Northern Province. He compiled the letter. The students happened to be in the Western Province and received this express, so he came to see his mentor... Mentor... Save Junior Brother Jiang."
Liu Wenshan said, his eyes flushed.
Obviously... Fang Jifan misjudged the Spanish.
I thought that a crisis that spreads the entire Francisco would take ten or eight years before the Spaniards could recover, but I never expected that after three years of depression, the Spaniards finally... began to recover their vitality.
Fang Jifan listened, his face immediately tensed up, and he squinted his eyes and said, "When can Jiangchen last?" "I don't know." Liu Wenshan said worriedly: "Once the fall of the Northern Province means that our Ming Dynasty has no fulcrum in Franji, and there is no fulcrum. Moreover, the Northern Province will first recover the crisis with the assistance of the Ming Dynasty, so... attract the continuous wealth of Franji to the Northern Province. Junior Brother Jiang was there, following the instructions of his mentor, without any mistakes, and he also built many fortresses and trained a military horse. But once the Northern Province falls into the hands of Spain, this will inevitably encourage the thief, and Junior Brother Jiang is also in a state of doom."
Fang Jifan frowned and said, "When their letters came, I'm afraid that half a year had passed, that is to say... it has been nearly half a year. We don't know what happened in the northern province within this half year."
Liu Wenshan nodded in pain: "That's right now, Junior Brother Jiang is not sure about his life and death. In half a year, many things will happen. Even if we want to rescue, it will take more than half a year. Perhaps... When our Ming Dynasty rescue navy arrives, Junior Brother Jiang and the soldiers who traveled across the ocean with him... I'm afraid that it has already..."
Fang Jifan saw Liu Wenshan's face as if dead.
Obviously, Liu Wenshan has regained his rationality.
In a year, there was no time to rescue.
What's more, in order to rescue, the Ming Dynasty still needed to allocate countless money and food, dispatch elite ships, at least tens of thousands of sailors, and use countless wealth.
And paying such a high and huge price is just to rescue a group of people who may have died in battle.
I'm afraid... no one is willing to pay such a big price.
Liu Wenshan said sadly: "Mr. Teacher, the student understands that experiencing the Northern Province is a dangerous move. This northern province is lonely thousands of miles away from the Ming Dynasty. When Junior Brother Jiang went, he should have understood that he had no way out and no reinforcements. Now... the Spaniards finally took action, and the Northern Province can instantly fall into a grudge, but our teachers and students can only watch... Teacher... the student understands... "
But Fang Jifan suddenly glanced at him and said, "Save!"
Liu Wenshan looked up and looked surprised: "Save?"
"Not bad! Save it, save it even if you sell it! " Fang Jifan said gritting his teeth, his eyes full of determination.
