Chapter 209 The matter of fame and fortune
Chapter [-] Fame and fortune
Xuejian just made a suggestion, which is a win-win proposal for her, and she can gain fame and profit.And those who are wandering or suffering from anger have also been taken care of.

Xuejian said to old man Niu:

"Grandpa Niu, if you are sure that the characters of these two people are not bad, you should send them a letter first and let them come to our village to find you. It is better for you to come forward. My uncle has repeatedly said that I am still a child, and many things cannot be done. Come out."

Grandpa Niu immediately said:

"These two people are really nice, okay. I'll call you to have a look first, and let them help you with something if you can, and forget it if you can't."

Xue Jian nodded, and turned back to drag Princess Changsun and the two senior brothers back to a pavilion next to the pond in the backyard.Xuejian opened a small cabinet under the table in the pavilion, and there were some Four Treasures of the Study inside.Princess Changsun liked it very much and said:
"It's good, you don't have to ask someone to go back to the room to get it. Sometimes you can write down what comes to your mind."

Xue Jian responded:

"That's right, that's what I thought at the beginning. But my father said I was lazy, so I prepared it for myself."

The four of them sat down, and Xue Jian said:

"Brother, sister, let's discuss how to make this disabled soldier's home. You are all people in the court, I think this is useful for you. But how to use it is up to you, use it well. Others It is not good to say that you are doing good things for the court and the people. It means that you are forming a clique, and it is possible to station private soldiers."

Murong Xing raised his hand and slapped Xue Jian on the head, and reprimanded softly:

"As long as you are so courageous, you dare to say anything, what kind of private soldiers, do you know what it is? You can say all of this?"

Xue Jian pouted, looked at the little brother, and knew that he was reminding herself.But he also pretended to be dissatisfied and said:

"Why can't you say it? Are those who don't sit down all from my own family? I also kindly reminded them. I want these people, and I can just support them, but how can I make others feel at ease, right? I Everything here has not been laid out yet. If the two people Grandpa Niu said are reliable, then we can make more, and then we can go to Mr. Jiang’s family and Aunt Hong’s family. This Mr. Jiang’s family only charges costs. But Aunt Hong’s family is considered to be the first business. This requires the supply of goods. To make iron pipes, it needs people to do it. What I need now is people, and I can’t randomly ask for people. I To find these people to do it, one is to help them, the second is to help yourself, and the third is to help the court!"

"How can you help the court?"

Lian Quchen could figure it out, but Princess Changsun couldn't figure out how this was helping the court.

Xue Jian turned around and said:
"Although these soldiers were injured and returned home, the court gave them money, but how much money was there? How many of them were detained by officials at various levels along the way and could reach the hands of the soldiers? When these soldiers returned home, they lacked Arms and legs are short. How do you support your family and yourself? You have to rely on others to support you. In this way, there will be family conflicts, and if there are conflicts, something will happen, and if there is an accident, you will have to go to the government. In the end, it will hurt the hearts of those who have become soldiers. , then no one will take the initiative to serve in the military. Even on the battlefield, they are not so active in killing the enemy. I am afraid that I will not be able to provide for the elderly if I am injured. So, this is also a favor to the court, right? , big brother."

Lian Quchen nodded.See Xue Er said:

"Someone in your family was a soldier? How do you know these things so clearly? How can you think so much?"

Xuejian seemed to be asked.After a moment of silence, he said softly:
"Brother, isn't this kind of thing happening in every dynasty? I read about it in books, and added some of my own imagination. Is that the case?"

Lian Quchen nodded again and said:
"You are so right. This is really a hidden danger that no one in the court has thought of. But you don't plan to come forward, how can you fix it?"

Xue Jian blankly pointed at the princess, and said:
"I can't, but the sister of the princess can! Firstly, she is the princess, and she is valued by the emperor, so it's right to share the emperor's worries? Second, she is newly married and decides to do something for the people of the world, and for the sergeant. Well, yesterday my uncle told me about the princess’s sister’s father, oh, I’m sorry, sister, I brought up something unhappy.”

Princess Changsun reached out to pat Xuejian's hand and said:
"It doesn't matter. In fact, I really haven't met my father a few times. When I was ten years old, he died in battle, but he kept a side of peace for the dynasty. After that, that side also paid tribute to me. No more wars. Your idea is really good. I always talked to my grandfather about the art of war and some current affairs, but I didn’t expect to do this for the people. Okay, I’ll listen to you, and I’ll come out ahead. Just say , I said that my father wanted to do it when he was born, but he didn't have time to do it. Now that I am married and an adult, I will help my father to do this good deed. It's just Xueer, it's your idea, but the beneficiary is What about us."

Xuejian stood up, wanting to give herself some momentum to speak, but found that standing was not as tall as they were sitting, annoyed, she climbed onto the stone bench with hands and feet and stood up, said:
"I'm just young now, and I have a lot of things to do in the future. This is just one thing. The princess sister doesn't have to do it herself, you can let someone you trust to manage it, and I want to choose this address in our celebration first." Yang Mansion, this was originally your food town. From here, we will do it in every mansion in the future. The main thing is that the money can keep up. We just need to gather these people to make this iron pipe. Then we can With income, with income, they can support them. This can be regarded as making them self-sufficient. You don’t need money from the court, even you can only help a part of the start-up money. Do things for them. I promise to let them play a big role."

Lian Quchen said:
"No, at least two places are to be built at the same time. One is the capital city and the other is the Qingyang mansion. Xue'er, your new-style house can make a lot of money even if it is built in the capital city. Leave it to me, you give I have a team of people who can do this. I can write a letter and ask my people to find a place for blacksmithing first. Set up a place you called the Home of Disabled Soldiers. As long as we When I went back, I started to gather people. Then I made the first house. I promise, I will make a lot of money in Beijing, and the price must be higher. As long as it is launched in the capital, any government will come to look for it, and I am afraid that it will not be pushed out. ?”

"But elder brother, you are going to go to court. It's not good for you to show up. This will make it appear that you are making a name for yourself, and if you make money, it will appear that you are collecting money. I don't think so. These two things cannot Both of you are in the early stages. It is okay for the princess to build this soldier’s home. It is done in the name of her father. Earning a reputation is also good for you. But you are the Duke’s family, so it’s not good to make money with a big fanfare. gone."

Xuejian still thinks so.
