Du Ke, to use modern words, is a very ambitious person who goes beyond his own principles. What happened to the Wei family and the Yang family back then was indeed shameful to many people. Du Ke has never commented on this matter, but he also recognizes the Wei family's approach in his heart. 녦On the surface, ‌놋people dare to say anything. After all, the Wei family is loyal to the emperor. Who dares to slander the Wei family? Is this a slap in the face of the emperor?

Du Ke just wanted to know that the little girl kneeling inside him could say such words. Yang Haiyan came from Taifu Yang's family. If she recognized the Wei family, she would indeed be able to make a name for herself in a circle like the capital in the future. However, the Wei family considered this and saw how good Yang Haiyan was now, so they came to marry her. Duco smiled and shook his head at this kind of behavior. "Get up and talk."

Yang Haiyan stood up.

Du Ke said: "You are a smart woman. You can think about the right and wrong and the pros and cons in that situation. It is indeed wrong. I dislike women's intelligence. I have two daughters in the family, one legitimate daughter and one daughter-in-law. A concubine, whether she is a legitimate daughter or a concubine, rarely talks. She never spoke before she got married, but she still speaks more often after she gets married. How can a goddaughter talk to me like this?" To put it bluntly, when two daughters meet, they are like a mouse meeting a cat.

Yang Haiyan was stunned, did Du Ke admit his words?

Du Ke said again: "Tell me, in that situation, why would you want to use your wife as a shield?" Du Ke's tone was filled with blame and curiosity.

Yang Haiyan was honest in front of Du Ke and did not dare to play any scheming, so she said truthfully: "You have accepted Xianggong as your student. Your relationship with the Qin family has been settled. Guan Guan recognized it." In the eyes of outsiders, having a wife as a foster mother will not damage your relationship with your father-in-law. Therefore, although this is an excuse to reject the Wei family, it will not affect the Du family. Acknowledging the Wei family as a godson is equivalent to the Qin family becoming a godson to the Wei family, and since you are my husband's teacher, the Du family and the Wei family may also be implicated.

To be honest, what I want is personal reasons. 놖놊 recognizes the style of the Wei family, and... also thinks that you will help 놖 admit the matter, so... 놖 is bold. "

"Hahaha..." Du Ke laughed, "You are indeed very bold. But, your boldness is also within my expectation. Although I am surprised that you react so quickly, but for your wife, it is 놊Unexpected.”

Yang Haiyan was slightly stunned.

Du Ke said: "A woman who can think about military camp field policies, saltpeter ice making, franchise agents and other things, I think she is an ordinary woman."

Yang Haiyan is so embarrassed. Is Mr. Du's words a compliment?

"Okay, come on, what are you doing outside?" Du Ke shouted towards the door.

Qin Fang walked over with a smile: "This is what I want to say to you, so I'll come back later."

Yang Haiyan thought, Qin Fang went there on purpose.

Du Ke snorted: "They are all playing tricks on each other. Now that things have happened, let's decide this way. I will write a letter to your teacher's wife. Congratulations on accepting it. As a foster daughter, you still have to borrow this hairpin. Let me prepare another hairpin like this.”

Yang Haiyan took off the hairpin: "This hairpin was given by Mrs. Yong ‌ Hou ‌, and this is the first time she wears it. 놖I thought that Wei Ting should also have the pattern. If the master's wife... the adoptive mother is going to prepare like this I’m going to make some changes to the pattern of my hairpin. I’ll be happy to talk about it when I meet Mrs. Zi in the future.”

Du Ke nodded: "I've counted." He accepted the hairpin in front of Qin Fang. Although he was the same generation, there was still a distinction between men and women. In front of Qin Fang, doing so would cause misunderstandings. "Now let's talk about joining, the specific things, what do you think, and then we will analyze them."

Qin Fang said: "Let Yan Yan talk about this matter."

Du Ke: "I never counted on you." Why did you invite the couple to come over together?

Qin Fang shut up and realized that the teacher loved to quarrel with others.

Yang Haiyan smiled and realized that Du Ke liked Qin Fang very much, and Du Ke was so carefree and comfortable getting along with Qin Fang. "Teacher, the plan is like this. We will open a franchise meeting in every province in the name of the emperor. Then we will bid for a few selected households, and we will choose the one with the highest franchise fee. Hey, this is the first step. The second step has nothing to do with you, it’s about the winning bidder.

Each government has several counties, and the winning bidder can go to each county to manage them, so the winning bidder can set up an agency in the county..."

Our discussion lasted from morning to noon, and we didn't finish the discussion until just before lunch. Du Ke was very interested in Yang Haiyan's proposal to join, bid, and represent. He said that just the plan was not clear about some aspects, but Yang Haiyan explained it this way, It becomes clearer.

The first step of this plan is to establish a product label. The name of the product label is Huangliang, and under the word Huangliang, there is also a name, which is the emperor's own character, Yuanxiang.

In other words, this product is marked with four characters: Huangliang and Yuanxiang. These four words were all written by the emperor himself. After they were written, they were carved into a seal by the Ministry of Industry and asked to be brought by Du Ke.

In the second step, a family that successfully joins will get a product label like this, and a county merchant who succeeds in joining will also get a product label like this hanging at the door of the store. That is to say, if you have a product label like this The shop in question sells 꺱bean flour and sweet potato flour, which is illegal.

The product label with the word "Emperor" was carved randomly by someone who dared to do so. This is a serious crime of decapitation. Who dares?

Therefore, the Emperor’s brand is very easy to use.

After lunch, Du Ke, Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan began to discuss the next thing.

The first test site of this plan is Renzhou, which has six prefectures, while Yunxiang County is in Hedong Prefecture, and the franchisee of Hedong Prefecture is the Qin family. Then, there are still five prefectures in Renzhou, and Du Ke needs to summon the prefect of Renzhou Prefecture to Yunxiang County to discuss the matter. Of course, the prefect of Hedong Prefecture also had to inform him, so the six prefects had to come to Yunxiang County.

Du Ke: "The place to entertain the six prefects should be arranged at the Yunxiang County Inn."

Qin Fang said: "The post has been renovated and is occupied by people. Please greet Yang County and the county government will arrange the reception."

Du Ke is worried about this. What he is worried about is: "Take the six prefectures of Renzhou as an example. Hedong Prefecture is yours, so you don't have to worry about the candidates to join, but there are still five prefectures left, and each prefecture has to choose. It's not that easy to find a good person. If there are several suitable households, then the bidding process will take more than half a month for each household. 놋‌Hundred and Twenty Mansion, if all these ‌Hundred and Twenty Mansion come down, Qin Fang, Bingyun, do you think, how long will it take?”

Qin Fang began to forget it silently.

Yang Haiyan said: "Twenty-four households per year, how about five years?"

Du Ke was slightly surprised: "Bingyun's arithmetic is good?"

Qin Fang said proudly: "Yanyan is responsible for the accounts of the military camp. But now Yanyan is teaching Shouye, and he will hand it over to Shouye in the future. The accounts done by Yanyan are very easy to understand. People like this are called 놖who know arithmetic. I understand.”

Yang Haiyan immediately said: "My husband, everything feels good when I see him, he is so good."

In the past, when Qin was placed in front of Du Ke, he still screamed, but now according to Du Ke's clothes, Yang Haiyan has recognized Mrs. Du's biological relationship, so Du Ke and Yang Haiyan are also righteous. Since he became one of his own, Qin Fang was so polite that he called him Yanyan.

Du Ke knew Qin Fang a little bit. If Qin Fang said yes, it must be good. The only advantage of Qin Fang is that he can speak big words. Therefore, Du Ke curiously said: "Go and get the accounts of the military camp." The Ministry of War also has the accounts, and it is a mess on a daily basis. How can Qin Fang, a person with no inklings, do this? I really need to understand the accounts.

Qin Fang stood up and said, "Go and get this."

Yang Haiyan: "..." I think Qin Fang is a bit arrogant.

Du Ke said: "Don't worry. Bingyun, it will take five years to join the franchise plan. I have spent five years on it. It will take two more years. What can you do?" Du Ke said. Although Ke asked this question, he had already thought of a solution, so he just tried Yang Haiyan.

Yang Haiyan judged the purpose of Du Ke's question. In front of a good official, he was willing to introduce modern knowledge. Just like when he was at the border, he knew it through novels. I can trust my character, so I dare to take the soap recipe.

Yang Haiyan thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea: "Teacher, will I be your deputy?"

Du Ke was stunned. Yang Haiyan's answer was really unexpected. "How do you say this?"

Yang Haiyan said: "놖...놖I want to go with you to the place where 놊땢 is to participate in this matter. 놖...놖 grew up in the capital, married from the capital at the age of sixteen, and married from the border at the age of eighteen. I came to Yunxiang County with my husband, 놖... 놖I want to go to the country to build a great country, Teacher, 놖I know that in the eyes of many people, a woman should take care of her husband and raise her children, and stay behind. In the house, 녦 is... 녦 is 놖hope. When 놖놋 has a child, 놖녦 proudly tells them how big and beautiful the country’s land is. We have walked through every inch of Qiguo, and..." Yang Haiyan's voice gradually faded, and she felt that she had a little fantasy. In ancient times, what woman? To be so lucky?

Du Ke had known for a long time that Yang Haiyan was a strange woman and that she should not be influenced or measured by the thoughts of ordinary women, so he was quite sure of Yang Haiyan's words. After a while, he said: "You should discuss this matter with Qin Fang." If Qin Fang has an opinion, even though he is a teacher, he is also a human being, so why bother? right?

Yang Haiyan was very interested when she heard this: "You don't, right? Don't you think women should be confined to the inner courtyard of the back house?"

It was rare for Du Ke to talk about something personal about himself. This was something he had never heard from anyone before: "Speaking of which, I have never thought about this issue. Since I was born, I have gone through enlightenment, studies, imperial examinations, When entering the court as an official, every step is very orderly, so I have never thought about what a woman should do. I have only thought about it... maybe three times.

The first time was when the old lady at home asked me to marry your adoptive mother, I thought about this woman. The second time, when my legitimate daughter, your eldest sister, was getting engaged, I thought about what kind of man would suit my personality. The third time is when my concubine and my daughter are getting engaged... I really don’t have any ideas on how to position the woman. "This topic is a bit interesting. Women nowadays are indeed restricted to the back house, but..." You grew up in the capital, so you should know that there are also women in the capital who are not restricted to the back house. Poetry gatherings and poetry studios are held every year, and some of them are held by women. Can those women be confined to the back house?

Therefore, it is the woman herself, not the man, who decides whether a woman is confined in the back house. Bingyun, what do you think? "

Yang Haiyan was stunned at first, then slowly recalled Du Ke's words, and suddenly realized: "Thank you teacher for your guidance." I understood, and I also want to understand.

‌ Until now, when ‌ entered this ‌ world, they had been required to live here according to the standards of ancient women. For example, ancient women would do some small business, ‌ become husbands and raise children, etc., ‌ ‌Bian Xianyu, ‌Bian also lived like this. But after listening to Du Ke's words, I woke up. It seems that most ancient women lived like this.

But there are still other things that are not true. It is you who decides how to live your life. You do not just follow the crowd.

Back in ancient times, if one had been stuck in the back house from ten to ten years old, or one's destiny was to be eighty, one would not dare to imagine what would happen in the future. There are still fifty years, or even seventy years, and her life has just begun. Should she live up to the standards of ancient women and live up to such standards?

That obviously doesn't work. No, isn't this life wasted in vain?

‌ I have decided that when ‌‌ Qin Fang reveals his private parts, ‌ will tell Qin Fang that ‌ is going to travel. When I still have children, I can still play happily for a while. When I have children, I will... travel with my children?

Qin Fang didn't know his wife's rebellious thoughts, so he came back with the accounts of the military camp: "Teacher..."

Du Ke took the account book and immediately said: "We discussed how to use two years to complete five years' work. Bingyun said that he wanted to follow me to each government and be my deputy to do this. What happened, Qin Fang, what happened to you?"

Qin Fang opened his mouth and looked at Du Ke, and then looked at Yang Haiyan. At this time, he had an idea: "What should I do?"

Qin Fang's answer made Yang Haiyan a little interested. Yang Haiyan thought he would be right, but unexpectedly, his answer was what he should do.

Yang Haiyan thought for a while: "Why don't you get up too?" What's really going on in Yunxiang County, and with Colonel Yang and Lieutenant Lu here, you can rest assured when guarding the city. Therefore, it is okay for Qin Fang to leave for a while. However, the general guarding the city cannot leave the county at will if he has the emperor's order. Of course, if you go to a place like Linxian, it's okay to be a few miles away, but if you go too far away, it won't work. If something happens in the county town, the general who defends the city will be held responsible.

Qin Fang was moved. He had not had a good rest since he started serving in the military at the age of ten. After completing five years of military service, I had a month's vacation, but it took more than ten months of traveling back and forth from the Yongzhou military camp in my hometown. The answer is: "No, I have the emperor's orders at the moment, and I have to stay with the situation at the Taoist temple." The emperor asked him to spy on him secretly, and he could not leave.

Speaking of the Taoist temple, Du Ke said, "Wei Ting said earlier that in a few months, the fire medicine matter will be almost done."

Qin Fang's eyes lit up: "What do you mean, teacher?"

Du Ke continued: "Renzhou is the first step in the Huangliang franchise plan, and it is estimated that it will take a few months, so there is no rush. However, since the general guarding the city cannot leave the county where he belongs, I can ask the emperor to use his discretion. Use you as my bodyguard general."

Qin was so happy that he stood up and said, "Thank you very much, teacher."

Du Ke waved his hand: "Then you can all talk about how to improve the efficiency of the Royal Food Franchise Program."

Yang Haiyan said: "Although our Qi State has one hundred and twenty prefectures, in terms of states, there are twenty-two in total. We can put the situation of each state at the beginning, just like The teacher said before that the prefects of Renzhou Prefecture should be invited here personally. The prefect is the head of the prefecture, and he will recommend people with good conduct in each prefecture. We will investigate later and confirm the problem. If we let these people bid, it will be much faster.”

Qin Fang had never been in contact with these people's livelihood matters. After listening to his wife's analysis, he said: "Then we have to send people to investigate the situation of each prefecture in advance, so that when each prefecture recommends those families, it will be like right."

Du Ke nodded: "Yes, in fact, before I came to Yunxiang County, I had already sent people to various states to investigate."

Yang Haiyan never thought that Qin Fang would do things so quickly, and he would be the most popular person around the emperor.

Du Ke added: "But I don't know whether the Royal Food franchise plan will be successful this time. Before I came, the emperor had already announced this through the morning court. Do you know what are the pros and cons of this court?"

this?

Qin Fang and Yang Haiyan looked at each other, but they didn't know. Qin Fang was born in a mud-legged family and had never known anything about the imperial court. He didn't know this. Yang Haiyan is a little girl. She knows some plots and some clever tricks based on her knowledge, but if she really understands these important affairs of the court, she doesn't understand them either.

Du Ke said: "Let me talk about the advantages of the imperial court. The advantage of the imperial court is that the emperor is very powerful when he seizes the throne. The imperial court is almost the emperor's hall of speech. For example, the ministers of the imperial court are all in high positions. People who have helped the emperor in the past, such as me, Wei Ting’s father Wei Hong, and others, because of the relationship between us, in the early days, it was whatever the emperor said. Therefore, in the Huang Liang franchise plan, ‌Some people dare to be right. Even if someone dares to be right, there is a huge difference in the number of people who agree.

This is the first advantage.

The second advantage is that the emperor has three sons. The princes are still young and the factions in the court are not obvious. People like us who are the emperor have not yet taken sides, so the early court will be very harmonious. However, since ancient times, there have been several dynasties with examples of factions in the imperial court. They will wait until the princes are a little older. "

Qin Fang listened: "Are the disadvantages mentioned by the teacher the factions that will appear when the princes are older?"

Du Ke said: "Yes, but the emperor is physically strong and this kind of disadvantage is still early."

Yang Haiyan wanted to say, you don't have to worry about this. The emperor's health is really good, and he will be fine when you retire.

"I am serving as the imperial envoy this time. There are many people waiting for my joke. They naturally hope that the Royal Food franchise plan will fail. If the Royal Food franchise plan fails this time, it will probably take a long time. At this time, I will not be able to hold my head high in the capital, so this plan cannot be failed." When Du Ke said this, there was a hint of sternness in his voice.

Second

Du Ke sent someone to deliver a letter to the prefect of Renzhou.

Renzhou Prefecture: Hedong Prefecture, Anren Prefecture, Qiongli Prefecture, Liang껚 Prefecture, Dao‌ Prefecture, and Jiujiang Prefecture. When the prefect of the prefecture received Du Ke's letter, they were surprised because the imperial court had announced the imperial grain franchise plan, and the imperial envoy for this incident was Du Ke, so they were all waiting. Regarding this Royal Grain franchise plan, the imperial court has given clear regulations, but no one is clear about it. Everyone is curious about what kind of plan it is. But from the literal meaning, it can be seen that it must be related to food.

This time, the prefect of Renzhou received Du Ke's letter and rushed towards Yunxiang County without stopping.

In the past, I have never seen the two prefects of Renzhou have good friendships, but this time, when they arrived at the gate of Yunxiang County, they did not rush to the city immediately. They waited for several people to arrive before they came. From the city.

The magistrate of Anren Prefecture said: "I don't know what the specific plan is for the Royal Grain franchise plan hosted by Mr. Du this time. Mr. Liu, this is your territory, have you heard anything about it?"

Mr. Liu is the prefect of Hedong Prefecture. When he heard the prefect of Anren Prefecture ask this, he said: "Not yet, we will know the specific plan when we meet Mr. Du."

The two of them just had a verbal spat, and then the famous prefect came to the city. They went directly to the post station in Yunxiang County where court officials were received.

When the magistrate arrived at the post station, the postmaster immediately sent someone to the general's mansion to find the county government comrades. Soon, Du Ke, who was serving the general, and Magistrate Yang, who was in the county government office, passed by. However, the county government office was closer to the inn, so Magistrate Yang arrived first.

When the prefects arrived at the inn, they went to settle down in their respective houses to rest. Yunxiang County under the jurisdiction of Magistrate Yang was under Hedong Prefecture, so he went to see the prefect of Hedong Prefecture himself.

The magistrate of Hedong Prefecture took a bath and changed his clothes. When he heard that Magistrate Yang was coming so soon, he let him go.

The last time County Magistrate Yang saw the magistrate of Hedong Prefecture was at the beginning of 2016. The magistrate of Hedong Prefecture was transferred here at the beginning of 2017. When the magistrate took office, the county magistrate under his jurisdiction naturally went to see him. .
