I really just want to lose my fortune

After that, Qin Ge took Yang Yuhuan around the port again, looking at some novelties from the West.

On the way, Qin Ge kept thinking about how to use Da Vinci to bring out the best of Da Vinci.

Arabic numerals, it's better to pass on such a convenient thing as early as possible. Qin Ge doesn't know anything else, but elementary school mathematics is still okay.

Da Vinci's biggest role may not be to bring industrialization ahead of schedule, but to establish a knowledge system.

"Our village borrowed a donkey from your village, so now we have to pay back ten donkeys?"

At this moment, Qin Ge's thoughts were interrupted by a quarrel.

Qin Ge took Yang Yuhuan's wrist and walked towards the direction of the quarrel.

"Ten heads, what we borrowed is just one." A villager said: "Now these are normal profits, and we earned them!"

"If you bought a donkey from me, I wouldn't say anything, but you borrowed it. After you borrowed the donkey, it grew stronger and gave birth to a litter of young ones. Isn't it immoral for you to return only one donkey?" After the villager finished speaking, he rolled on the ground: "Don't buy his donkey, it's not his, it's ours!"

"Why are you unreasonable? When we borrowed, we had a lot of mortgages. If we lose weight and get sick, we will take the risk." The donkey seller said with black lines on his face: "Now the good thing is coming, Are you still in good spirits?"

Yang Yuhuan tugged at Qin Ge, and said to Qin Ge: "I think what they both said makes sense..."

"This kind of thing is actually the most difficult to break." Qin Ge felt a little headache.

This is often unclear in later generations, let alone now.

law?Calling the police is sometimes not that useful, and in the end it is mostly mediation.

The price difference cannot be made up by the government, otherwise it will be endless.

If soldiers are allowed to suppress it, it will definitely lead to dissatisfaction among the people.

If the people are dissatisfied, taxation, corvee, etc., will be as difficult as heaven.

Originally, the state had improved and they could start collecting taxes normally, but these people didn't have so much concept of paying taxes before, and now there are a lot of messy things, which are not enough for Liu Bowen to worry about.

"Why is this disrupting the market ignored?"

"The law and order in Daqin is very poor."

"I thought it was just us."

"No matter what, let's watch the fun."

Seeing that the embarrassment was thrown abroad, Qin Ge felt even more headache.

Soon, a scholar led someone to rush over, he understood the reason and moved him with emotion, in the end the donkey borrower not only got a donkey, but also got some profit, so he gave up.

"Let's go back." Qin Ge glanced at the foreigners who were watching the bustle, and said to Yang Yuhuan, "Well, are you going back so early?"

"It's getting dark." Qin Ge said dumbfounded, "I've been out for a long time."

"Okay." Yang Yuhuan said reluctantly.

…………

The next day, Qin Ge summoned Liu Bowen.

"My lord." Liu Bowen saluted Qin Ge.

It can be seen that Liu Bowen didn't sleep well last night.

Talents have been recruited, but this does not mean that they can do things from the beginning, they still need to be trained and taught how to do it.

Qin Ge is not enough, so he can only be trained by Liu Bo, Wen Pang, and the actual combat.

"About people's livelihood issues, I went to have a look yesterday. The treatment on the pier is acceptable, but I think it can be improved, otherwise a small illness or disaster can kill those workers. They help carry, there is no one Guarantee or something." Qin Ge said: "The follow-up of the miracle is really troublesome, Bowen has worked hard."

"Heh, this is what the sect should do."

Seeing that Qin Ge went out for a private interview, Liu Bowen was relieved.

There are many protagonists who care about big things, but not many people care about such trivial things.

"As for the guarantee, there is really no way to give it." Liu Bowen sighed.

"Could it be that if those workers get sick or get hurt while moving things, they will be responsible for the consequences?" Qin Ge frowned.

"My lord is benevolent, but other people may not think so." Liu Bowen said: "If their injuries are compensated by businessmen, it is very likely that workers will be injured collectively or intentionally."

Qin Ge nodded, Liu Bowen was worried about cheating on insurance!

The law at this time is not perfect, and that kind of situation may really happen, and then it will be a bunch of bad things for the government.

"Then how about raising the wages of the workers?" Qin Ge said.

"It's not enough for the time being. Merchants value profits. The Daqin is not limited to the coast of Jiaozhou. For a little profit, they are likely to go to the port of Yangzhou, so we will not be able to keep these merchants." Do better, let them not care about these small profits."

"But, I just want to increase the ten boxes of ten Wen to ten boxes of fifteen Wen. How many days will it take to reach Yangzhou?" Qin Ge said, "Can't they figure it out?"

"My lord, this is human nature." Liu Bowen said: "They can't see the profit we made in Jiaozhou, but if the price is raised on this transportation, their reaction will definitely be very fast."

Qin Ge touched his chin, and suddenly thought of his previous shopping habits.

No matter how cheap things are, as long as they don't include free shipping, he won't buy them.

Other people's homes are obviously more expensive, but as long as the postage is free, Qin Ge will choose the more expensive ones, and even comfort himself by saying that the quality of this one is good.

"Also, although Yangzhou is in war, the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and they are much richer than us," Liu Bowen said.

Qin Ge nodded. If it was Guangzhou and Shenzhen in later generations, he would really not be afraid of that side, but this time really couldn't compare.

"However, the prince's starting point is good. I will try my best to add some doctors to the port, as well as some people who handle these things." Liu Bowen said.

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble Bowen." Qin Ge nodded.

"That's why the lord sought out his disciples?" Liu Bowen asked curiously.

"Ahem, actually, I want to do some research..." Qin Ge said cheekily, "If the research is successful, it may greatly increase our transportation capacity."

"How much does it cost?" Liu Bowen immediately became vigilant: "My lord, if Daqin has just been established for about 20 years, Bowen will not stop him from doing whatever he wants, but if we need too much money, we can't afford it now. "

"After research, can it be quickly put into production? After production, can it be quickly put into war?"

"What we are doing now is all to prepare for future wars. If we can't improve our combat power in a short period of time, I'm afraid we won't be able to invest a lot of money for the prince."

Looking at Liu Bowen's appearance, Qin Ge seems to have heard: Your Majesty, the spectacle is detrimental to the country!

Although this kind of thing is beneficial for the future, there are too many examples in the contemporary era. If a king's thinking is too advanced, it may even drag down the entire era.

"I don't need much for the time being, just a small factory." Qin Ge said quickly: "People, I need some craftsmen, preferably capable craftsmen."

"That Da Vinci is very talented. We can use a lot of western knowledge now, especially Arabic numerals. If we use this well, we can save a lot of effort in statistics."

"This..." Liu Bowen looked confused.

Obviously, Jiaozhou's finances are still too poor.

"My concubine said that the Yang family can support some money." Qin Ge said.

"Huh, okay, but if you want to solve the problem fundamentally, you still have to work hard at the shipyard." Liu Bowen said helplessly: "There are half of the people from the Ministry of Industry there, and it is said that there are still a lot of funds in it, all of which are research projects. ship."

"Defining Da Vinci as a boatman, or a disciple of a certain craftsman, he can use the funds of the court to study."

"I can't go to sea now, and the money used to go to sea can't be moved for the time being. This is also a good thing."

"Speaking of which, can't we just take the shipyard into our pocket?" Qin Ge said.

"No, all the lords are still listening to the court's order on the surface. This shipyard is the same as Pan Feng's camp. There are no soldiers or special instructions to move unless the lord uses weapons. But to use weapons here, the lord's Dayi is untenable. For this shipyard, the prince still has to find a way within the rules." Liu Bowen said.

"Yeah." Qin Ge nodded, expressing his understanding: "Then help me find a way, how to stuff Da Vinci in, and let him have funds."

"As long as what he studies is really beneficial to shipping." Liu Bowen said.

Qin Ge said that something like a steam engine must be beneficial to shipping!

The Flying Dutchman used steam on the ship at that time, and the speed of the ship was really fast.

"Okay, then I'll let him study the spinning machine first." Qin Ge said: "When the time is right, I'll send him to the shipyard. When the time comes, I will ask Huang Chang to send more people. We must protect him. Let him be bullied."

"Is this Da Vinci really so powerful?" Liu Bowen was a little surprised.

"Some explanations are not clear. In short, this person even has the ability to move the entire Great Qin forward." Qin Ge said.

"Hmm..." Liu Bowen nodded thoughtfully.

It's really strange that the prince's god-man entrusted his dream, even foreigners know who is talented and who is not?

"Report!"

At this moment, a soldier came to the door.

"What's wrong?" Qin Ge looked at the soldier.

"Urgent report, Master Zhang of Wudang, has become a feather..." the soldier said with some seriousness.

Liu Bowen and Qin Ge looked at each other, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes.

Zhang Zhenren, feathered?

Qin Ge thought about it. Zhang Zhenren saved his life before, and came here specially to check on himself. Why did he just leave?

Although Qin Ge and Zhang Sanfeng haven't been in contact for long, Qin Ge still respects this legend very much.

In particular, Zhang Sanfeng told Qin Ge that the correct use of his abilities saved Qin Ge from taking many detours and making many mistakes.

Liu Bowen felt his eyes go dark, but fortunately he was supported by Qin Ge.

Seeing that Liu Bowen had fainted, Qin Ge quickly used the magic of the Great Wilderness Classic to infuse Liu Bowen with internal energy.

For a moment, Liu Bowen's body burst into vitality.

The spells used by Qin Ge are more effective in healing and rejuvenating than any current internal skills.

In less than a cup of tea, Liu Bowen woke up leisurely.

"Berwen, are you okay?" Qin Ge said with a worried face.

"It's okay." Liu Bowen was also too tired recently, and he couldn't bear the shock when he heard the bad news just now.

These years, Zhang Sanfeng's help to him was not at 01:30, he chose Mingzhu, which was the way Zhang Sanfeng pointed him out.

Moreover, with Zhang Sanfeng's recommendation, he also benefited a lot from Wang Yangming.

"Master Zhang, why..." Qin Ge opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him.

"It doesn't matter. If Shigong doesn't want to leave, no one can take him away, and if he wants to leave, no one can keep him." Liu Bowen smiled wryly: "Surely, Shigong's wish has been fulfilled, right?"

"It's just that the miracle in Jiaozhou this time, I'm afraid the court will blame Shigong."

"Let's not say that Zhang Zhenren is the king's savior, just say that the old man has done so many things for the world. This credit is recorded on Zhang Zhenren's head, and this king doesn't care at all." Qin Ge said: "Bowen also once I have said that it is not the ability of ghosts and gods to conquer the world, but the one mind."

"This credit goes to Zhang Zhenren, and he can better protect Wudang. It can be regarded as fulfilling half of Zhenren's wish."

"Your Majesty, you are so generous." Liu Bowen said with emotion: "The banquet is almost ready, isn't it going to be a celebration banquet for General Gan?"

"Wait, Master Zhang passed away not long ago, you..." Qin Ge hesitated to speak.

"Master is a generous man. If it were him, he would definitely not want me to be too sad, let alone affect other things." Liu Bowen said softly: "Everyone's morale is strong now, and we just joined There are a lot of talents, it’s a happy time. If you tell everyone the bad news, I’m afraid it will dampen everyone’s enthusiasm.”

"Especially the prince, you must not show sadness. You are our spiritual leader. If the master leaves, it will be a big blow to you, and it will also affect everyone. Why don't you wait for the news to spread slowly and take it to heart. "

"My lord's heart, I believe Master understands."

Qin Ge was silent for a moment.

Is this why the king calls himself lonely?

Some things can no longer be shown on the face, let alone cry when you want to, laugh when you want to laugh.

Chapter 354

Another half a month passed quickly.

With the addition of a new group of talents, Qin Ge's handling became more orderly.

Fang La is marching towards Jiaozhou because of the guidance and instigation of Jingzhou.

The imperial court's soldiers and horses have arrived in Liangzhou, but it still takes time to integrate, and the best time to attack Dong Zhuo has been missed.

Even if there is someone like Zhuge Liang, he can't fight there right away, at least those generals have to listen to him.

King Wei didn't try his best to stop Huang Chao and Wang Xianzhi, and the rebel army had already approached Sizhou.

Yuan Shao, the king of Yan, seemed to have a tacit understanding, and has been standing still.

Especially Yuan Shao, if the imperial court ordered him to do so, he would give him a beating, and then continue to recuperate.
