Poor family mother and son

"Heh! General Tuo Fan, this is a new military rank specially created for me!" Chu Qing sat cross-legged on the couch, with grilled shrimps with asparagus and garlic and fried squid with sauce on the table in front of him. Peel the shrimp.

Beside their legs, there are three copies of the imperial decree, all of which are open and placed in one place at random.

"Mother, do you agree with that joint edict?" Xiaobao asked.

Chu Qing gave Xiaobao a sip of apple cider vinegar, which was made by his mother herself, and then said: "It looks like the content is a contract, but it was issued to me in the form of an imperial edict. Can you say I don't agree?"

I don't know if Xiao Bao's mouth was twisted by the sourness, or his lips curled up in disdain: "If you don't agree, can you wrap a cannonball with the imperial decree and return it?"

Chu Qing: "..."

Chu Qing patiently taught her son: "Son, during puberty, the body's hormones are relatively unbalanced, and it's normal to be irritable, it's just..."

Xiaobao touched his smooth little face: "I don't even have a pimple, how can you tell that I am unbalanced?"

Chu Qing: "..."

Chu Qing didn't care at all about the emperor's sarcasm about Chu Qing's childish means of revenge, such as using the seven and a half miles of land as "Tuo Fan", even putting his own fief in a place of exile.

It is enough to have a place and a famous name. Even if we are "the duke of the state", we are also the duke of the state, aren't we?
Just get the benefits, and you don't have to take anything else to heart.

However, Chu Qing still wrote a thick letter to the emperor with a "sincere heart". In the letter, he praised the emperor first, just like the emperor's imperial edict praising Chu Qing.

Anyway, it's business boasting to each other, and then saying that they are busy relocating the population, so they won't return to Beijing to thank them.

As for the "joint edict", which is actually the emperor's "cooperation contract", Chu Qing also replied: as long as the money is in place, everything is easy to talk about.

The main content of the "Joint Edict" was that the emperor said that the sea salt farm was still needed, and that he would continue to open it in a cooperative form with Chu Qing, but he did not specify what form it would take.

"Daxuan has well salt, rock salt, and lake salt, and there is no shortage of them. Doesn't the salt field in Linyang County belong to him?" Xiaobao asked, "The emperor really wants salt?"

Chu Qing pointed to the salt jar: "There is a lack of refined salt, but this is not the original intention of the edict, the emperor is reluctant to give up the Chu family who can help him gather resources;

The sea salt field can only be regarded as an entry point for the emperor;

Look, after he reads his mother's reply, he will slowly and continuously cooperate with our family on more projects, such as cement. He also has to build bridges, roads and city walls, right?

For example, glass, there must be a lookout window on the city wall, and it is best to block the wind, right?

Look, he will definitely want everything by then! "

Xiao Bao said, "Yes? That's not acceptable! You can rent it, buy it, or pay in installments, but you can't get it for nothing!"

Chu Qing agrees: "Mother also means the same thing, don't give, don't borrow, only rent and sell, if the emperor is more ambitious in the future and wants to use our cannons, we can rent them, and even pack the cannons with people. ;

However, in the short term, as long as the country of Vos ceases to exist, the emperor will not discuss such a sensitive transaction with our family. "

Xiao Bao put the peeled prawns into Chu Qing's mouth: "Actually, I think the timing is just right...how about us..."

Just to put it bluntly, Xiaobao is not serving Chu Qing's meals here for nothing!

Seeing clearly that his eyes were wide open, Xiao Bao chuckled: "I want to do it once and for all!"

Chu Qing enjoyed Xiao Bao's feeding and fed him another sip of apple cider vinegar by the way, so sore that Xiao Bao's nose and eyes wrinkled together, Chu Qing then said: "

Son, we can challenge the emperor now, but once we get through the famine stage and the people will not starve to death, our family's strength is still weak;

We can prolong the time for us to develop and grow only if there are interests to restrain us. It is estimated that the emperor thought so too, so he "condescended" to discuss cooperation with us, and this is what my mother would like to see. "

Xiaobao: "Then... what if he also grows stronger?"

Little Treasure's worries are not superfluous, but it is not an easy task to eliminate the technological gap of hundreds of years in a short period of time.

So there is no need to worry about Daxuan's growth.

There is another key question - Chu Qing has successfully contained the war between the two countries, so will he be able to return to his own world?
However, how to judge whether it is considered to calm the game world?Do I need to stay here for ten years to verify, or is there another way?
unknown.

But in any case, it is necessary to live in peace with Daxuan, and there is no need to worry too much, so he answered clearly: "It is difficult to develop and grow with the current productivity of Daxuan;

From the perspective of various interest groups, it is also difficult to let them promote the rapid development of the country;
It's like a fisherman's fish basket. If there is only one crab in it, it can easily crawl out, but if there are many crabs in it, no one can get out;

Isn't that what our mother and I have experienced for so many years?
Fortunately, there is a little black-bellied crab beside my crab who is helping to build a ladder, paving a good logistics channel for my mother, so that my mother not only comes out, but also eats a big-bellied melon! "

This is Chu Qing's greatest feeling.

No matter how Chu Qing realizes the knowledge in his head and how many new gadgets he makes, he cannot do without the support of a strong logistics system. Only by communicating with the north and the south and trading things early can Xiaobao make the Chu family rich and strong .

Xiao Bao scratched the back of his head embarrassingly: "I did it unintentionally, I originally wanted to go out into the rivers and lakes and recruit more people;

What I was thinking at the time was that you are a woman and have an official status, there may be many eyes staring at you, and how many people are secretly stumbling you, someone must do some dirty work for you;

Unexpectedly, the logistics were brought up. "

Chu Qing's nose was sore: "Son, mom sees you like this, it's quite uncomfortable. You should be a pure and happy sunny boy, but now..."

Forget it, stop talking, Chu Qing rubbed her nose, suppressing her emotions.

What can I say?It's me, let the child experience murder and arson too early, let the child become cruel and ruthless too early, this should not be something a child should bear.

But what else?
Back then in Wukeshu Village, she didn't help deal with the Donglun bandits, and hid with her children like any village woman...

Maybe he can survive, but in that case, if the village is looted by bandits, will he still hire Chu Qing as a cook?

With no livelihood, where should the two of them go and what should they do to make a living?
After meeting Jie Chi's mother and son, until now, Chu Qing has not told Xiao Bao what happened in the "duplicate", so he can't think about it with Xiao Bao.

Now, since the war between the two countries has been prevented, let alone talk about it, just wait for the result.

It is clear that when an adult looks back on the past, he still feels that the past is unbearable; if Xiao Bao knows that the truth of time travel was caused by him, can the child still face the past 12 years?
Seeing her mother feeling a little lonely, Xiao Bao comforted her: "Mom, don't think so much, no matter what kind of life, as long as I can be with you, as long as my mother can discipline me, it's a good day!"

Then he used his feet to pick up the imperial edicts, held them up high, and teased him clearly: "Mr. Yong'an, the boy is not disrespectful. It's really inconvenient for the boy to have shrimp juice in his hands!"
