Chapter 1182: Teacher-Student Love

It's a trick!

The duke felt dizzy.

It's like getting drunk.

With that slightly smoky feeling, some hallucinations began to appear in front of his eyes. He seemed to see that there seemed to be a holy light in the sky, and many angels were singing hymns.

Blood still trickled out from his wrist.

He said with difficulty, "What opinion do you have on Ming's ships and their navy?"

Wang Xizuo bowed and replied, "This is a group of robbers, a group of lunatics, they are cruel, disrespectful, and a group of shameless heretics. But... most of their ships are not equipped with enough firepower, and their artillery is crudely made. , their sailors are ragged, yellow and thin... yes, your Excellency, they are vulnerable, and... their administrative system, like a bloated giant with mud feet, looks huge, but in fact, it only centers on the emperor, Whoever controls their emperor can bring them to their knees."

This is a very fresh insight.

Of course, Wang Xizuo has been in Daming for a long time, and of course he has great foresight towards Daming.

Especially when mentioning Daming, Wang Xizuo gritted his teeth.

The duke was silent for a moment, his eyelids were barely lifted.

The barber watched his bleeding, murmuring.

The Duke said, "Give in?"

"Yes." Wang Xizuo said confidently, "Their capital is only a hundred miles away from the port. As long as they can destroy their navy and occupy their port, this port is called Tianjin. If the capital advances and captures their emperor, then the entire Ming Empire will be captured without a fight. They... have innumerable wealth there, and their emperor hides innumerable treasures in the palace city..."

Then, Wang Xizuo took out a sheepskin map from his clothes, he took it out, and opened it.

The Portuguese governor and priests on the side came forward one after another. This is a map that couldn't be more detailed. In the map, it clearly recorded the deployment of troops, mountains and rivers in the entire Daming capital area...

The Portuguese governor thought about it, but soon he regained his composure.

An attendant brought the map to the Duke. The Duke lay down and saw the map slowly unfolding in front of him. He stared at the map with deep eyes, and then he took a long breath.

Seeing this, the barber at the side immediately said, "God, the devil in your body is still not dispelled, we should carry out further treatment."

The barber looked serious, and he took out his razor. The sharp razor was still bloody, but the next moment, the razor slammed into the Duke's wrist and cut another hole.

This time, the incision was so huge that the flesh turned outwards. It was an old wound that had gradually congealed blood, and suddenly, like a river flooding, fresh blood gushed out.

The duke felt that his strength had grown.

But...he must be healed to fight against the devil.

In his mind, scenes of hallucinations began to emerge. He saw light, saw countless ships, galloped on the ocean, but couldn't see countless wealth, saw...

He tried to calm himself down, and then said, "Okay, very good, you did a good job, come here, give him thirty gold coins, from now on, you will be my personal consultant, if... if we can Conquer Ming, and you will get double rewards."

An attendant has already taken out a small bag, and there is a pleasant sound of jingling inside.

Wang Xizuo took the small bag of gold coins and hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Excellency, I am willing to serve you."

Here are thirty Spanish gold dollars, um... quite a lot, worth at least a few hundred taels of silver.

Wang Xizuo put the bag in his arms, and left the luxurious room respectfully.

The moment he walked out of the room.

The Duke said to the clerk, "In my name, please write a long letter to the king. He needs to know everything that happened here immediately, and... this map..."

After he said these words with difficulty...

At this moment, although the devil was lost in his body, his own life seemed to be lost as well.

The priest at the side whispered in the Duke's ear, "Your Excellency, this person is not worthy of trust..."

"I know." The Duke said hard, "These... are a group of exiled liars and thieves. I... how could I trust such people, so... I rewarded him with thirty 'piastres' ', and, promise to reward him with more when we succeed, gold coins, the whip of God...cough...cough...will drive him to do anything."

The priest nodded, he held the holy book, and agreed with this.

The Duke's blood began to coagulate again.

Looks like the wound wasn't big enough.

The barber proceeded to bleed him.

...

When Wang Xizuo came out of the governor's mansion, he was holding a bag of gold coins in his hand, but at this moment, suddenly, the bell rang.

Suddenly, someone started singing a hymn.

Wang Xizuo turned his head and looked at the huge mansion. At this moment, he couldn't help scratching his head...

It seems... a quarter of an hour after I became a personal consultant, I lost my job again.

...

The duke's head was covered with a shroud embroidered with a cross.

The priest led a group of children, holding candles, and began to sing hymns mournfully.

Duke's face

On the ground, at the moment when the shroud was covered, the blood was as miserable as white paper. He opened his blue eyes wide, but unfortunately, those eyes had lost any color.

The barber has already packed up his tools and stepped aside. As he said, health depends on the outcome of the contest between good and evil gods. Unfortunately, the noble duke, although constantly releasing harmful poison in his body Blood, but still can't resist the devil's erosion.

The barber looked regretful, this is already the ninth person called by God this year, but... what can be done about it, this is all arranged by God.

…………

In the town government.

The atmosphere today is surprisingly solemn.

The debt collector is here.

Baoding is not far from Xishan, especially now that the road has been built.

Ouyang Zhi arrived here in a short time by car.

Liu Jin also followed.

Ouyang Zhi stands here like a wooden stake.

The New Deal has reached its most critical moment.

Debt is entangled, and although taxes are increasing day by day, expenses are also increasing.

The money circulates crazily, but the problem is that if the crazily circulated silver breaks, it will be a disaster.

Ouyang Zhi led a group of people desperately, groping like walking on thin ice. What they were walking was a road they had never walked before.

Now, it's time to build the railway.

If it is not repaired, it will not work, and the voices of merchants are very loud.

You can't just kick people away after collecting business taxes from them.

Furthermore, the repair of this railway is simply beneficial to the country and the people, and it has even greater benefits for the promotion of the New Deal.

Especially Tongzhou and Baoding prefectures are constantly siphoning the population of nearby states and counties. The population is increasing, the population is getting denser, not to mention the passing of goods.

The existing roads simply cannot bear it.

Liu Jin came here because she was called back by Zhu Houzhao.

The grandson heard that he was very happy in Baoding Mansion, which made Zhu Houzhao very annoyed. You are a servant of the palace, why did you become a master?

Gu Dayong and those people used to gossip in front of His Highness the Crown Prince all day long, talking about Liu Jin's appearance outside.

Originally thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would become more and more alienated from him, so that he would become a reassuring person by His Highness's side.

But who knew, His Royal Highness... called him... called him back.

Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao entered the lobby.

sit down.

Liu Jin was sitting and knocking on melon seeds, but when he saw His Highness and the godfather coming in, he immediately jumped up, he got fatter, swallowed the melon seeds, and then said with difficulty, "I have seen His Royal Highness, I have seen the godfather. "

Liu Jin was busy pouring tea and water for Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan.

Gu Dayong, who was standing beside Zhu Houzhao, wanted to die at this moment. He looked resentfully at the chubby Liu Jin, but he still had to show a welcome.

Fang Jifan raised the teacup and took a sip of tea, "How much money can Baoding and Tongzhou raise?"

"Return to the teacher's words." Ouyang Zhi has an extraordinary bearing, which is a kind of bearing that has been experienced. "The tax money that can be raised now is only 800,000 taels."

Eight hundred thousand taels can still be raised, even if it is the national treasury, it will be overshadowed.

Baoding has money, and it is impossible to be convinced.

Fang Jifan frowned, "Baoding and Tongzhou now owe tens of millions of taels to the Xishan Bank. After this year, they will have to pay back hundreds of thousands of taels with interest."

"Yes, so I can no longer borrow money, but the railway has already been planned, and the preliminary exploration has also been done. It costs a lot, and the students really have nothing to do. I am here to ask for advice."

Zhu Houzhao crossed Erlang's legs and stared coldly at Liu Jin who was beside him. Liu Jin hurriedly forced a smile, and almost shouted "eggplant".

Fang Jifan said with a smile, "I want money, and now I think of being a teacher. You brothers, you don't have a fuel-efficient lamp."

Ouyang Zhi was expressionless.

This dog is not ashamed at all.

Fang Jifan felt that it was really difficult for him to communicate with Ouyang Zhi.

but……

He looked at Ouyang Zhi, "Then, why not raise money?"

"Fundraising?" Ouyang Zhi looked at Fang Jifan in surprise.

Fang Jifan couldn't help but slap his thigh, this bastard has really become slippery.

When you scold him, his reaction is a little slower, and when you give him an idea, his reaction is a little faster.

Fang Jifan said, "To be precise, it is to raise funds and package this railway into a business. Baoding, Tongzhou, and the capital are all very prosperous now. As long as the railway is built, there is absolutely no need to worry about it, and it will not be profitable. Teacher, think about it, think about it..."

Fang Jifan frowned, not to let people see, the huge benefits brought by the railway, how can this railway be promoted?

Although people in this world talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, in the end, everyone is realistic after all.

Now the railway in Daming is just a small section between the new city and the old city. For the local state capital, it has no imitation effect, but once the railway from Baoding and Tongzhou to the capital is built, the meaning will be completely different.
