Datang Longya

Chapter 489

Looking at the triumphant Gong Shupo, Leng Feng was sweating profusely, three arrows?Or is the power reduced by half?
This one
Leng Feng scratched his head: "Mr. Gongshu, you may not know about that."

Gong Shupo looked at Leng Feng impatiently: "I don't know what?"

Leng Feng shrugged: "After my improvement, the eight-ox crossbow can now shoot five arrows in the previous time period, and in terms of power, it seems to have increased by [-] to [-] percent."

The combination of the pulley blocks made the eight-ox crossbow, which required the exhaustion of several strong men to operate, become two strong men.As for these two strong men, there is still one pulling string and one card slot. If the strength of pulling the string exceeds that of ordinary people, it can be operated by one person.

Gong Shupo smiled mockingly, and squinted at Leng Feng: "Do you think I will believe your nonsense? The power of the eight-ox crossbow is huge. Correspondingly, its activation is also particularly troublesome. The rate of fire has increased by five times? The power has also increased Is it? Could it be that your eight-ox crossbow has become a master, and you can wind it yourself? Hahahaha!"

Fan Zhui wanted to laugh too, but when he saw the smile on the corner of Leng Feng's mouth, he stopped.Because of this smile, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be full of confidence.

After Gongshuo finished laughing, Leng Feng sat on the chair, pointed at the dishes on the table with his chopsticks and said, "Let's bet, if I win, I will contract Mr. Gongshu's food and drink in the future, how about it?"

There is no free banquet in the world, contract my food?Isn't that what you mean to recruit me?

Only then did Gong Shupo put away his smile, sat back on the chair, and stared at Leng Feng without blinking.

Since his ancestors, he has been hiding from the world, and in his generation, he still has no intention of being born.Public losers, if they want to pass on for a long time, they need to stay away from the court.This is the ancestral precept, and in Gong Shupo's opinion, this sentence is very reasonable.

The public loser is too famous. After being born, he may be welcomed, but after a long time, he will definitely be involved in the power vortex of the court. Once he is deeply involved, he may end up exterminating his family at any time like other families.

but
Gong Shupo looked at Fan Zhuo. Fan Zhuo was the most sensitive person. At this time, he should be asked for his opinion.

Seeing that Gong Shupo was questioning himself with his eyes, Fan Zhui shook his head.

For other people, he can completely judge his thoughts by "observing his words and expressions" and judge whether he has the confidence. However, when Duke Zong finished saying "bet", the original confidence on his face completely disappeared.Whether it's eyes, facial expressions, lips, or breathing... It's completely impossible to see his thoughts.

This is a person who can control his emotions very well, even the confident smile before was all faked by him.Facing such a person, it was impossible for Fan Zhuo to make a judgment on him easily.

Gong Shupo didn't see that Fan Zhuo couldn't make a statement, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Yes! I bet with you!"

After Gong Shupo agreed, under Fan Zhuo's horrified eyes, all the stiff facial muscles of Leng Feng relaxed one after another, and then the obvious
Laughed!

"Well, since Mr. Gongshu agreed, let's go see the new eight-ox crossbow together tomorrow, and then we'll know if what I said is true!"

After speaking, Leng Feng looked at Fan Zhui again.

Fan Zhui: "."

He had the feeling that a rabbit had entered a tiger's den. It seemed that if the two of them came to meet Duke Xun, they would be recruited by Duke Xun!

"What's your advice, Master Xi?"

Leng Feng pointed to the broken scroll of Gongshu and said, "Mr. Gongshu proved his identity with the drawings, so how is Mr. Fan going to prove it?"

Fan Zhuo nodded: "Indeed, if someone comes out and says that he is a descendant of Tao Zhugong, Duke Xing will definitely not believe it easily, so, Duke Xing, do you remember what I said?"

"for example?"

"Your plan to replace Datang's agricultural tax with commercial taxpayers should not be obvious to ordinary people!"

Leng Feng nodded. It is indeed impossible for ordinary people to deduce these things just by relying on the bank.

"However, this does not prove that you are a descendant of Tao Zhugong. Maybe you are a businessman who has been in business for several generations?"

Fan Zhui looked at Leng Feng speechlessly.
Can't you prove your identity just by this?

"I also see that you set up a bank, hoping to control all the merchants in Datang through the bank, plus your plan to replace agriculture with business. I'm sure that you intend to get rid of the five surnames from the bank network and let The five surnames couldn't keep up with the development of commerce, and stood still, or even regressed.

is this correct? "

Leng Feng looked at Fan Zhui in surprise. In fact, just by seeing his plan of Shang Dai Nong, he already thought that Fan Zhui was the descendant of the legendary Tao Zhugong.Unexpectedly, he actually saw his plan to use the bank to deal with the five surnames?

Have some brains!It seems that this big fish cannot be allowed to slip away!
Leng Feng nodded: "You are right, I have this plan!"

Hearing Leng Feng's admission, Fan Zhui was extremely satisfied!
Leng Feng picked up the wine glass and said to the two people: "Unexpectedly, today I am lucky enough to meet the descendants of the God of Craftsman and the God of Wealth. I am really lucky in my life. Let Leng give you a toast!"

The feeling of being recognized by others is wonderful, although it is a bit unpleasant, but the two of them still gave Leng Feng face, raised their glasses and drank it down in one gulp.

but
I feel that Tianxialou's spirits are just like other wines, and I swallow it without even thinking about it. The taste is extremely unpleasant!
"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Cough cough!"

Both of them coughed violently. After coughing, Fan Zhuo didn't get angry at all. Instead, he held out his thumb: "Good wine! This wine alone will make Duke Xi a rich man!"

Tao Zhugong's descendants, when looking at people and things, divided them into "can make money" and "can't make money", which is really helpless.

After drinking a glass of wine, Fan Chuan said with a smile: "Actually, our ancestors had the idea of ​​replacing agriculture with commerce, but even he himself found this idea ridiculous. Now, I have met someone who thinks the same as my ancestors. Can't help but want to see and see.

in addition"

Fan Zhui looked at Leng Feng, and said word by word: "Mr. Xi, how do you plan to face the problem that all people are open to business?"

It is no longer a year or two for merchants to be suppressed. In the final analysis, the rulers are afraid of an uncontrollable situation where "all people are merchants".All people are merchants, no one is farming, what do people eat?If there is no food tax, what will the court use?
Leng Feng smiled slightly. Li Shimin had also asked this question before. If Li Shimin hadn't been persuaded, how could he have been allowed to do this?

"In the final analysis, emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business is because agriculture is the main body of taxation, but..."
