Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1513

Liu Shi despised Fang Jun.

What are you talking about in order to strengthen the Ministry of War and make it a veritable military center of the Tang Dynasty? Isn't all the high-sounding rhetoric just to cover up the fact that you are making money from it?
Otherwise, why did Baba pull his construction team back from Niuzhuji Nanshan Mine...

He is not jealous that Fang Jun makes money from the projects of the Ministry of War. There is a saying that "the right does not have to expire and become invalid", and the so-called "being an official for thousands of miles is only for money". .

He just looked down on Fang Jun's beautiful words, but he didn't want to take less of the benefits...

Liu Tianyang ignored Liu Shi, but stared at Ji Shiju closely. After hesitating for a while, he approached Fang Jun and asked in a low voice, "Erlang, why is this Japanese here? This is the highest place in the Tang Dynasty." Technology, if it is learned by this Japanese..."

This kind of worry is necessary, but Fang Jun doesn't care.

He replied softly: "What can I do if I look at it? One, it is to show trust in it, which will be conducive to long-term cooperation with it in the future. In addition, there is no core steelmaking technology and no specific blast furnace drawings. What do you think? This savage can learn just by looking at it? Hehe, you think highly of him too."

Liu Tianyang thought for a while, and felt that what Fang Jun said made sense, he had indeed overestimated the Japanese.

These short people don't even have their own writing, so they use Chinese characters to record historical facts. How can they understand the construction of blast furnaces, iron melting and steelmaking?
But after pondering for a while, Liu Tianyang still bravely reminded: "Don't be afraid of everything, just in case, if you are not careful, these Japanese people will understand it? Don't blame Erlang for being a small talker, as the saying goes, drive carefully. Even if they don't understand the Ten Thousand Years Ship, they should keep it a secret."

Fang Jun raised his eyes to look at Liu Tianyang with a serious face, nodded his head slightly, and said seriously: "You are right, in the future, any officials who are not directly under the Foundry Bureau are not allowed to enter the Foundry Bureau without authorization, let alone observe any part of the Foundry Bureau." There is a reason for this incident, and it is someone's fault, it is only this time, and it will not be an example."

I still take it for granted...

Even if others do not understand the structure of the blast furnace and the technology of steelmaking, as Liu Tianyang said, what if?
There has never been a shortage of amazingly talented people in this world. If there is such a person who understands the principle just by looking at it, and brings these technologies beyond the times to the enemy country of the Tang Dynasty, how wronged would it be?
Everything can be done with forewarning, and if not forewarned, it will be abandoned. Fang Jun felt that Liu Tianyang was very vigilant, and he wanted to set rules for the foundry bureau from now on.

Liu Tianyang was shaking with excitement...

As a domestic slave, daring to refute the patriarch's remarks is already treasonous, even if he was beaten to death because of this, not to mention that Fang Jun not only forgave his following offenses, but even accepted them completely...

Erlang is indeed a hero with a big heart and a great spirit!
In ancient times, in order to repay Zhi Boyao's kindness, Yu Rang went to the toilet on the bridge, swallowed charcoal to paint his body, assassinated Zhao Xiangzi many times, and finally committed suicide, leaving behind the eternal swan song of "a scholar dies for his confidant".

Are you not as good as an ancient man?

Liu Tianyang was so emotional that he knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice, "I am willing to die for Erlang!"

His actions made Fang Jun confused...

In his mind, as long as it is a good suggestion, it doesn't matter whether it is a domestic slave or a beggar on the street, it should be adopted.Although Liu Tianyang contradicted him, his suggestion made up for Fang Jun's negligence caused by his momentary carelessness. He had no merits, so why did Liu Tianyang react like this?

In fact, although he traveled to the Tang Dynasty, he did not fully understand some of the character habits and values ​​​​of the ancients...

Take Yurang as an example.

Yu Rang once said, "What I call this is to understand the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers." In addition to his complex of "meeting the ministers with the country's scholars, the ministers will repay the kindness of the country", he also tried to use his own actions to prove the truth of the world. Morality, integrity and loyalty.

The ancient chivalrous warriors were totally different from today's "birds die for food and people die for wealth". Their measurement of the value of life was entirely based on the spirit, and they were willing to persistently pursue and even sacrifice for some ideas and principles throughout their lives.

What they pay attention to is that the spirit must have the awe-inspiring righteousness that traverses the sun and the moon, and the value of life must have sublimation and brilliance that are higher than material desires and secularism!
Times are developing and technology is advancing, but the true meaning that people pursue is undergoing qualitative changes...

Liu Shi and Ji Shiju didn't take Liu Tianyang's behavior seriously. As domestic slaves, shouldn't they express their loyalty like this?

No fuss...

Liu Xi was still concerned about the foundry bureau: "Master Fang, just now he said that the investment in the foundry bureau is about 4000 million yuan... I dare to ask, where did the money come from?"

In fact, what he really wants to ask is: Are you going to pay for it yourself?

If that's the case, it means that Fang Jun transfers the money from his left hand to his right hand, and tossing and tossing, the military department will owe Fang Jun a large foreign debt, and finally the entire military department must belong to Fang Jun!

Liu Shi thought to himself that with this bold personality, he might really have this idea...

Fang Jun is full of confidence: "It's not too difficult to invest in batches in two years. I plan to raise half of the money from the Ministry of War and half from the Ministry of Households. At present, Datang's business is booming, and the Ministry of Households will not always be able to pay for it." You can’t get 1000 million coins a year, can you?”

The establishment of Huating Town has regulated the foreign trade that was originally controlled by the Jiangnan gentry, and transferred it to the control of Huating Town. Moreover, because of the independence of Huating Town, merchants do not need to pay this kind of "lijin miscellaneous taxes" during transportation when they circulate goods. ", thus increasing the commercial tax by more than ten times?
Now the fattest yamen in the entire center is the Ministry of Household Affairs...

Huating Town was established at the beginning, and now it's time to reap the interest.

Liu Xi was not optimistic about Fang Jun's ideas: "Let's not talk about whether we can get 1000 million guan from the Ministry of Households every year, those bastards are all Pixiu, they just eat but don't spit...just the 1000 million guan from our Ministry of War Where did it come from?"

The Ministry of War is a poor yamen, not only has no power, but also no money...

Fang Jun glanced sideways at Liu Shi, and said with a smile, "Hehe, the Shanren have their own tricks."

Liu Shi: "..."

Just as he was about to say more, he suddenly saw an official from the Ministry of War rushing into the room and shouting, "Master Fang, something is wrong!"

Fang Jun frowned and said, "Why are you so flustered?"

The official said: "The supervisor of the young mansion, Zheng Yuwenjian, surrounded our yamen with a dozen of his men, clamoring for an explanation at the door!"

Liu Xun jumped up and scolded: "Isn't it just digging out a few of him? This old man scratched the face of this official. What else is he going to do?"

The Ministry of War and the Shaofu Supervisor have no contact with each other on weekdays, and the business of the two parties has never intersected. Now that the Shaofu Supervisor is coming to kill him, it must be because of Liu Shi's poaching in the Shaofu Supervisor.

It's just that I didn't expect this old guy to scratch himself like this, and he was still reluctant...

Naturally, Fang Jun also knew why the Shaofu supervisor came to the door, so he gave Liu Shi a look, and said, "Look at the good things you have done, you will only cause trouble for me!"

Liu Shi was holding a mouthful of old blood in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out, and almost died of anger.

Who am I for?you heartless...

Fang Jun turned his head and said to Ji Shiju: "I'm really sorry today. One thing after another, I'm afraid I won't be able to cleanse your Excellency. Later, I will arrange someone to take you back to Honglu Temple and wait until tomorrow In my spare time, I am treating you to a drink."

Ji Shiju hurriedly said: "Fang Concubine just go about his business, don't pay attention to my servant, anyway, I will stay in Chang'an for a while, I will have a chance to listen to Fang Concubine's teachings."

Liu Shi on the side was surprised, although the Japanese were afraid of Tang Tianwei, but they were savage and disobedient, how could they be so obedient to Fang Jun?
This Fang Jun seems to be more sloppy the more the club falls into his hands, the more he is trained in a smooth manner, it is really strange...

Fang Jun ordered people to send Ji Shiju back to the post house of Honglu Temple first, and he hurried back to the Yamen of the Ministry of War with his general Bu Qu and Liu Xun.

Just turning the corner of the street, I heard shouting and cursing in front of me, and when I got to the door, I saw a dozen officials from the Shaofu prison surrounded by an old man with white beard and hair but a strong body, blocking the gate of the military department...

Someone with sharp eyes happened to see Liu Shi who was following Fang Jun, and whispered to remind the old man.

The old man suddenly turned his head, not paying attention to Fang Jun who was dressed in an official robe, and cursed at Liu Shi: "You bastard, the old man told you to send those people back to the Shaofu Prison yesterday, you didn't hear that, did you?"

Liu Xun was so scolded that his face was red and his ears were red. He became angry from embarrassment and was about to fight back, but Fang Jun stretched out his hand to stop him.
