Chapter 520
The next day.

Yang Reform hurriedly put the letter to Zhou Kui into an envelope, preparing to send a letter to Zhou Kui.

Although Zhou Wan'er interceded, Yang Reform did not ask Zhou Kui to do it himself, but he had to go out and arrange someone to do it. The responsibility and credit had to be piled on his head, otherwise, Yang Reform really didn't know Sending someone to Hainan to plant rubber, thinking of the long production cycle of rubber, Yang Reform can only be discouraged. More than six or seven years.

"Mate, send this letter to Mr. Zhou Kui as soon as possible. In addition, send another 30 silver coins to Mr. Zhou as money to continue buying land..." Yang Reform packed up the letters and sighed. With a sigh of relief, he gave the letter to Wang Chengen. This is the only way to grow rubber in Hainan Island. Now, there are no carriages with rubber tires. You have to find a suitable opportunity, so how can you speak up if you rashly designate to go to the "ends of the earth" to find something?
"Your servant obeys..." Wang Chengen replied.

Thinking about this troublesome matter, Yang Reform could only sigh. There was nothing anyone could do about it except for the help of aliens.Not long after, Wang Chengen finished his explanation and came back.

"Big Companion, let's go to Liulizhai, and we haven't been there for a while." Yang Reform said again, since the industrialization is going to start, there will naturally be many things to do, and it is impossible to be idle.

"The servant obeys..."

……

Yang Reform did not jump into the carriage as before, and left. When he got to the side of the carriage, Yang Reform took a closer look at the carriage. He looked at the wheels, where they were in contact with the ground, and they were covered with iron...

Previously, Yang Reform didn't think there was a big problem, but he liked the carriage quite a lot, but now, he felt awkward no matter how he looked at it.

"Your Majesty..." Wang Chengen reminded seeing the emperor staring blankly at the carriage with an awkward expression.

"Well, companion, why do I find this wheel more and more awkward the more I look at it? This iron roll is rolling on the ground, no wonder it's so bumpy and ear-piercing..." Yang Reform looked like he was looking for trouble with this wheel.

"Uh..., Your Majesty,... this wheel rolls on the ground and deals with water, mud, and stones. If it is not made of iron, it will not be strong, and it will be moldy when it rains. Therefore, this carriage wheel must be strong. It has to be covered with iron." Wang Chengen quickly explained that although he was a little surprised by the emperor's question, it was also reasonable. The emperor had been thinking about the carriage for the past two days, so it was natural for him to pay attention to the carriage.

"Oh, there's another thing to say!..." Yang Reform looked suddenly enlightened.

"...It would be great if I could find something softer to replace it. I won't feel bumped when I ride in a carriage. If there is something to replace it that doesn't make harsh noises, that would be even better. I always feel that this carriage When the cobblestone road is crushed, the sound is so ear-piercing that I always feel uncomfortable..." Yang Reform said again.

"..." Wang Chengen was really stunned this time. He didn't know how to start a conversation. He had to be soft, not intrusive, and silent. If the wheels of the carriage had to be durable, he had to be strong. Requirements, if you count not being afraid of water, not growing mold and rotting, and not afraid of being pricked by stones, is there such a thing in the world?
"...Your Majesty, there doesn't seem to be such a thing. It must be soft, silent, durable and not afraid of grinding. The carriage is so heavy that it has to be pressed on it, and it must not be afraid of being pressed. If you use this thing to make The surface of the wheel must not be afraid of water, must not grow mold, and must not be afraid of being pierced by stones..., Your Majesty, I have never heard of such a thing..." Wang Chengen really couldn't imagine what it was .

"Well, I haven't heard of this thing before, but thinking about the size of the world, there must be such a strange thing. In this way, you can send a message to Fu Mingde and say that I am quite dissatisfied with the wheels of this carriage now. , this wheel is old and the sound is harsh, I don't like it, let him change it, let him find something that can replace it... As for what to do, it's just like what the big partner said..." Yang Reform said smoothly I met the request, it was a fault-finding, and I also approved a project for the rubber issue.

"Ah! Your Majesty, this..." Wang Chengen stared at the emperor dumbfounded. Isn't the emperor always easy to talk to?Why is it so stiff all of a sudden?Where can I find such a thing?It was really embarrassing for Fu Mingde.It is estimated that Fu Mingde's hair will be graying rapidly.

"...Your Majesty, it's not that slaves talk too much, it's just that this kind of thing is really unimaginable, and I'm afraid it's hard to find!" Wang Chengen also began to plead for Fu Mingde, how to put it, Wang Chengen didn't want Fu Mingde to offend the emperor because of this matter. Happy.

"Hehe, it's okay, my partner should have heard of exhaustion, right? Ask Fu Mingde to try all the things that can be found in the world, all possible and impossible things. I don't believe it. I can't find this kind of thing in the world... If I can't find it, I will look overseas. In short, if I want to find it, I really hate bumps and harsh sounds..." Yang Reform laughed, and Yang Reform also looked at it. When it came out, Wang Chengen pleaded with Fu Mingde, but this time, he had to be "self-willed" for a while, and it was impossible not to get the rubber out. As for Fu Mingde's problem, that was Fu Mingde's business Well, let him have a headache.

"Here, this servant obeys..." After listening to the emperor's words, Wang Chengen agreed without hesitation. He has already interceded for what should be pleaded, and the rest is out of his control. After hearing the emperor's brute force, he understands a little , It is to try a large number of things one by one until you find the one that suits you. Although this is a deadly method, it is also the most effective method.

……

The carriage clanked all the way towards Liulizhai.

Yang Reform, who was sitting in the carriage, really felt for the first time that the carriage was uncomfortable for him, and the wheels kept making harsh noises. What is this?
Fortunately, the carriage soon arrived outside Liulizhai. Liulizhai was still busy, with many people coming and going.

Yang Reform opened the curtains and looked outside Liulizhai. A large space had been vacated. After watching, he let go of the curtains again.The carriage went straight into Liulizhai.

……

After getting out of the carriage, Yang Reform looked at the wheels of the carriage again. He didn't think the sound of the carriage was so harsh before, especially when the wheels of the carriage rolled over the stone pavement. What is tormenting people.

"Young Master..." Sun Liniang was full of sunshine, exuding infinite charm, and shouted with a smile.

"...Well, Liniang..." Yang Huaqiang responded, and then left the carriage.

After entering the house, Sun Liniang quickly took the cloak and coat from Yang Reform.

"Young Master, it's been a while." Sun Liniang said with a smile, her words were full of pride, confidence, and nostalgia.Now Liulizhai has won the world's salt production and has become an "iron crop". Now it is impossible to say that Liulizhai is the number one company in the world. It seems that the dream of the world has come true. Everything is as it is. like a dream.

"Hey... It's true that I haven't come for a while, how is Liniang?" Yang Reform asked with a smile.

"...Everything is fine, but there is something missing in my heart. When the young master comes, the one thing that is missing in my heart will be there..." Sun Liniang said with some resentment, looking straight at Yang Reform.

"Hehe..." Yang Reform laughed for a while, and then said: "...how is the matter of salt now?" One end, I will have to work on the other end later.

Sun Liniang became furious, the atmosphere that had been raised with great difficulty disappeared in a blink of an eye, and she punched Yang Reform a few times, which was regarded as revenge.

"Don't worry, my lord. The matter of salt has been opened up now. There should be no problem. The Changlu Salt Field in the north has begun to dry salt. With salt in my hands, I don't have to worry about it. Now the south is guessing that it is time to produce salt. ..." Speaking of business, Sun Liniang also spoke about the situation in a serious manner.

"Oh, that's good, Liniang needs to worry more about the salt matter, it's a very important matter, don't take advantage of it..." Yang Reform couldn't help exhorting again.

"My lord, don't worry, it's not just Liniang who is staring at it now, those nobles are paying a lot of money to buy the stock of Liulizhai, just treating it as a hard-core crop. Many officials in Beijing have also bought it, and they are all staring at it. Who dares to buy it now? Playing tricks on the matter of salt? Even if Liniang doesn't pursue it, those people will rush up like burning their house, let alone Liniang's hand, hehehe..., not to mention the fact that the young master combines salt lessons with running a school When you get up, there are more people staring at the salt class. Those people of insight who run the school are all staring at the salt class. Whoever dares to pay attention to the salt class is just grabbing food from their bowl..." Sun Liniang said Here, I laughed proudly. I thought that the salt class would be very troublesome, but now it seems that even if there is trouble, there is no need to be afraid at all. With so many eyes and forces staring at him, there is no need for Liulizhai to come out. To remove the cover.

"Well, that's good..." Yang Reform nodded.

"... When I came, I looked at the land outside Liulizhai, and it seemed that it was all emptied..." Yang Reform said again.

"My lord, it's empty there. If you have an order from your lord, Liniang will naturally do it." Sun Liniang replied again.

"Well, yes, that place is useful..." Yang Reform nodded and said.

"My lord, what is the use of that place? Why did you vacate such a large space?" Sun Liniang asked.

"Hehe, it's nothing, just free up money..." Yang Reform laughed.

"Ah! Put the money?" Sun Liniang asked in surprise, how much money does it cost to put such a large area of ​​money?
"No, the salt merchants in the south got a lot of money, maybe 4000 to 2000 million, and 600 million were shipped to the capital. If there is no place to put the money, where will the money be put? Li Ruolian's bank, earlier Five or six million taels of silver can't fit in it, and now the cellar has been dug again, but it still can't fit that much silver..." Yang Reform said with a smile.

"Hey..., so much money is piled up here..." Although Sun Liniang has seen the world and has passed countless money, it is really surprising that tens of millions of money are piled up in front of her house!Unable to react for a while, he could only open his mouth slightly in surprise, watching Yang Reform in a daze.

"That's right, they're all piled up here. I want to open the eyes of the people in the capital to know what gold and silver are..." Yang Reform said with a smile.

"Hey, young master, why is that? Wouldn't it be enough to dig a few cellars first? It won't take long to dig a cellar, Liniang still thinks it's better to put it in the bank, in front of the public, What if..." Chinese people understand the truth of not revealing money, but Sun Liniang really can't understand why the emperor piled up money here to show off?
"It's okay, I just want to show the people in the capital and the world that I have money in my hands. As for why, it's simple, it's just for military tickets..." Yang Reform laughed.

"Military ticket? The meaning of the son is..., Liniang understands..." Sun Liniang is also a person who deals with money, and she is very delicate. Hearing what the emperor said, she immediately understood what was going on. The military ticket is paper , but it can be spent as silver, and can be exchanged for silver in full and in time.If it can be exchanged in time, the common people will naturally not mind using military tickets and paper transactions, then there will be many tricks in it... When the emperor said this, Sun Liniang immediately understood why the emperor wanted to reveal his identity.

"...Hehehe, it's good that Liniang understands, but Liniang has to deal with it quickly..." Yang Reform laughed.

"Don't worry, my lord, Liniang knows what to do." Sun Liniang understood the emperor's plan at once, there are really many ways in it!
Yang Reform laughed for a while. To start industrialization, it is very important to have the necessary silver support. It is undoubtedly better to use paper bills to pay for various expenses. After all, one silver is worth two flowers, and the industrialization evolution is successful. The opportunity is greater, and the work is more assured.

"By the way, Liniang, this time, there is one more thing. The business of going to the Japanese country will officially start. Liniang will help me find a group of reliable shopkeepers who can endure hardships to manage this trade... "Yang Reform thought about it and said.

"Okay, son, the matter of finding the shopkeeper, you have explained before. Liniang has been looking for a reliable and excellent shopkeeper. Liulizhai has also trained himself. Although it takes manpower to take over the salt production, but, after all, You can still allocate quite a few, don’t worry, my lord, they are all reliable..." Sun Liniang quickly agreed, she has been doing the job of looking for shopkeepers.

"That's good. I have to trouble Li Niang with many matters related to the establishment of the company... Among those shopkeepers, it is best to choose some young ones, who may have to go to sea and live outside of Ming Dynasty..." Yang Reform reminded .

"Don't worry, my lord. Liniang has already found a lot of people. Many of them were raised by Liuli Zhai. Although she may be a little tender in handling things, she is not afraid of hardship. The advantage is that she is young. It doesn't matter if she goes overseas. As long as she promises to let her go in a few years There is no problem for them to come back..." Sun Liniang said confidently, the emperor reminded her of this matter, she has been paying attention to it all the time, but she has selected a lot of apprentices to train, and the shopkeepers trained by Liulizhai may be fraught , may be tender, but loyalty is no problem, and it should be no problem to match those shopkeepers you have found.

"That's good. In this matter, apart from the shopkeeper of Liulizhai, maybe all major shareholders will send shopkeepers to participate in the operation. In addition to the British company, there are some people in the south who will buy shares, and Zheng Zhilong. Little, so Liniang has to hold on to this business name for me, it will be of great use in the future." Yang Reform said again.

"Don't worry, my lord, Liniang understands." Sun Liniang said ambitiously, now that the Ming dynasty has achieved it, but next, the real world will begin. Sun Liniang, who is no longer a little girl, already knows that there are more worlds overseas , Daming is not the only family in the world.

"Well, that's good. For maritime trade, I need to ask Zheng Zhilong and the others for advice. They are old sea merchants and pirates, and they know more about maritime affairs..." Yang Reform thought for a while, and then reminded road.

"Don't worry, my lord, Liniang will be counted." Sun Liniang said indifferently, now that she has the emperor's back, as the hostess of the world's number one firm, what else is there to be afraid of?How many pirates were recruited by the emperor?

"Hehehe, that's good. I'll leave the matter of maritime trade to Liniang..." Yang Reform finally felt relieved and laughed.

"Hmph..., that's all you have to do, my lord? Nothing else?" Seeing that the emperor had finished explaining the matter, Sun Liniang reminded her in a charming voice.

"Is there anything else? It seems that there is nothing..." Yang Reform was confused.But there is really no more, and there is the matter of the public carriage transportation center, which need not be said now.

"My lord, are you really gone?" Sun Liniang's face became even more beautiful, and her eyes radiated moisture.

Looking at the delicate and beautiful Sun Liniang, Yang Reform's heart was twitched suddenly, his emotions seemed to break a dam, and he was out of control all of a sudden, he picked up Sun Liniang and walked towards the inner room.

……

Coming out of Liulizhai, Yang Reform became more and more dissatisfied with the shock absorption system of the carriage, and even more bored with the sound of iron rolling on the stone road. After the previous mention of that harsh sound, his ears are now paying attention to it all the time. Those movements can be regarded as finding guilt for myself. I saw this kind of four-wheeled carriage before, but it was very close. Now I got off the carriage, and I still heard that sound in my ears.

……

"...What, Your Majesty asked the servants to use the carriage wheels? The place where the carriage wheels are grounded can't be made of iron? It has to be soft, wear-resistant, durable, not afraid of water, not afraid of being pricked, not afraid of being crushed, let alone grow Moldy..." Fu Mingde was very happy at first, because the emperor had something to pass on to him, but after hearing what Wang Chengen told him personally, he jumped up in shock.

"That's right, that's what His Majesty requested. Your Majesty said that he doesn't like the bumpy carriages, and he can't stand the sound of iron sheets crushing stone slabs. Your Majesty asks you to find a way." Wang Chengen told the emperor about this unreasonable request.

"Director Wang, you can save our family! Where can we find such a thing, Manager Wang, please ask His Majesty for mercy..." Fu Mingde was dumbfounded, and he really couldn't help it. Imagining what this is, I can only ask Wang Chengen to intercede with the emperor.

"Oh, your majesty, our family has begged for mercy, but your majesty still wants to do this, and let you go all out..." Wang Chengen said helplessly.

"Ah! Exhaustive!" Fu Mingde seemed to have grasped the straw to save his life.

"That's right, Your Majesty said that if you can't find anything at home, you can search overseas. In short, if you want to find it, our family thinks that since His Majesty said that, it probably means something. You might as well look for it and say You may not be able to find it, domestic affairs will not trouble you, if it is overseas, you can ask Zheng Huaizhong in Nanjing, he may have a solution..." Wang Chengen gave Fu Mingde an idea.
