I Raised A Sick And Weak Prince

Lu Huan also knew in his heart that it was not a way to stay awkward like this. If he insisted blindly, he would push people away one day.

At least, people are still by their side now.

The current imperative is not to think about it, but to find the outsider who is said to be able to channel spirits.

But with Lu Huan's current power, even if he heard of the existence of such a magician, it would be difficult to find where the person is in a short time. He can't bear to look slowly and look for it. If he wants to find it earlier, he must use some strength.

There are many soldiers in General Zhen Yuan’s barracks, and the eyeliner on the general’s mansion is also all over Yan Country. Maybe it can help him find it as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, after sending Suxi away that day, he went to Zhen Yuan General Mansion again.

In recent days, General Zhen Yuan has deliberately cultivated Lu Huan, and he called this boy together every time he discussed matters with the Ministry of War.

Recently, General Zhen Yuan had a very headache.

The conscription, which took more than two months, has ended, and the conscription is imminent. But in recent years, the treasury of Yan Country has been empty and has manpower, but the treasury cannot afford the food and grass of the army.

General Zhen Yuan also knew the emperor's dilemma, external and internal troubles. If this grain must be taken out of the treasury, it will inevitably be aggravated this year.

Yan Country’s tax is not light, and even since last winter, salt tax has been levied.

If the decree is issued again and it continues to aggravate, I am afraid it will intensify the riots/turmoil and the people will not survive.

And if these food and grass are taken from the pockets of those rich officials, it will inevitably trigger a group of capital forces.

What decision is made will affect the whole body, which is really a dilemma.

He rubbed his eyebrows, and said to Shangshu, Lu Huan, and several other counsellors in the military camp: "Today, the Throne Room was in a quarrel in the court. The prime minister was afraid of touching their interests, so he resolutely disagreed with the fundraising. Now that the prime minister's family is the only one, the emperor will inevitably turn to the prince's side. The old man is not afraid to continue arguing with him, but is afraid that the time will drag on and the northern border will really be unstoppable, and the consequences will be disastrous!"

Several advisers were also worried.

Lu Huan thought about it and asked, "General, how long is the current grain and grass in the army still enough? Is March enough?"

There has been a long war on the northern side. Since ancient times, there has not been a three-month end to the war. This time, if you want to completely encroach on the neighboring country, the army that is going to be stationed for at least one and a half years, so General Zhen Yuan and others Talents have such a headache.

Shangshu of the Ministry of War replied: "There are still some folk righteous men who send grain and grass, plus the original ones, it will last about four months."

So that is, within four months, at least the next four months of food and grass must be raised.

This is not a simple matter.

Although there are many wealthy businessmen in Yan Country, these wealthy businessmen still communicate with neighboring countries and will not easily do anything good.

What's more, many wealthy businessmen are making money from war, wishing Yan Country to be dazzled by war.

Lu Huan thought about the farms where he and the ghosts and gods belong. It is now June. By this autumn, the total output must have already exceeded 2,000 kilograms. These farms can feed a group of people in a short time, but For the army's food and grass subsidies during the war, it is still too small.

If you want to solve the current predicament of Yan Country's northern army, you must find a wealthy businessman who can afford these grains, and barter with them.

But those wealthy businessmen are already rich in the enemy's country, what do they need?

After the discussion in the General’s Mansion that day was over, the others turned around and left. Lu Huan stayed for a while. He told General Zhen Yuan that he wanted to try to see if there was a way to get food and grass, but he wanted to exchange something with the general. Go find someone.

General Zhen Yuan now has admiration for this young man, thinking that he is indeed resourceful, because he was too prejudiced before.

But even so, he still felt that it was impossible for Lu Huan to do such a fantastic thing on his own.

But young people, ambitious is a good thing.

On the contrary, he added a bit of appreciation in his heart, patted Lu Huan on the shoulder, and said: "The old man will send someone to do what you ask for, but you can do your best for problems in the military."

Although General Zhen Yuan had a bit of a military attache's stupid temper, he still kept his promises. After he promised Lu Huan, he sent someone to find the Dao chief who Lu Huan said he heard could bring the spirit back to life.

It's just that he and Lu Huan didn't know if they could find it.

...

Suxi found that Zai Zai suddenly became busy, as if he was hiding something in his mind, and eagerly wanted to do it, several times more diligent than before.

Previously, he walked his short legs to and fro between the official government office, Imperial College and the official residence all day long, but now he is so busy that he has no time to drink and eat. Most of the time when Suxi went online, he was either in the farm or in the government office. .

Often when Suxi went offline, he was still flipping through the case files. When Suxi went online, it was already the second day. He hadn't slept, and there was no trace of unfolding on the bed.

Suxi didn't know what his fundamental purpose was. He thought he was busy raising food and grass, and she sighed that Zai Zai really is a good boy for the country and the people.

Suxi thinks that it is a good thing for him to have ambitions and ideals, and does not bother him, but feels a little distressed about the blackness under his eyes and the red blood in his eyes.

And once Suxi found that the cub was so busy that he hadn’t slept for two days, and some shallow green stubble appeared on his chin——

Suxi:...

Suxi was frightened.

Wait, isn't it a cartoon style? Do you want to be so realistic? !

However, Zai Zai changed into an official uniform and went out soon, shaved off the green stubble, and recovered the soft and sweet bun cub again. Suxi was relieved.

She didn't realize until this time that most of the semester had passed on her side, and it had been almost a year in the game.

I used to accompany Zai Zai for his fifteenth birthday that night at King Ning's Mansion, and within a few months, Zai Zai will be sixteenth birthday in the blink of an eye... I don’t know this second year’s birthday, Zai What surprises Cub wanted.

However, it is gratifying that in the few days after returning from the barracks, the awkwardness between Zai Zai and her finally disappeared.

Suxi couldn't figure out why Cub's mood was volatile and unpredictable in those few days. He could only explain it as a bad mood for a few days every month.

She is like this, so is the cub, it's normal.

Fortunately, Cub Cub returned to normal after only a few days.

Suxi enthusiastically began to sew and repair the cubs, changing the quilt from spring to summer for the cubs. When autumn came, he changed the cubs to thicker quilts for autumn. In short, was very careful not to Let the cub catch a cold.

Zai Zai was still happy, looking at her, her eyes were dark and translucent, but occasionally there were some complicated and eagerly dark meanings in her eyes, which made Suxi a little bit unable to understand.

...

The time here in Suxi did not pass as fast as in the game. For her, it was just another month of raising cubs.

The first thing she does every day after school is to go online to say hello to the cubs, and then one person and one cub, across the screen, one is studying hard and the other is busy.

Suxi was tired of learning, so she took Zai Zai to go shopping in the street market. Although Zai Zai had a lot of things to deal with in the government office, she always put her first, but whenever she wanted to play, Zai Zai put everything away. Behind him, in this way, Zai Zai is not a completely good official.

Su Xi felt that she was accompanied by cubs and was more serious when studying. Before the end of the semester, she had already finished the homework for several subjects of this semester. When she turned to the last page, Suxi was a little surprised.

Only the main task in the game is a bit confusing.

The mission to unlock the cub’s life experience and find the Changchun Temple nun. don’t know if it’s not the time or what. Suxi took the cub to Changchun Temple twice, digging through every piece of bluestone floor tiles inside and outside Changchun Temple. didn't find the nun who might be npc.

The system's explanation for this is that there are other main tasks that have not been completed before, and it will not be revealed until Task 2 and Task 6 are completed.

So Suxi had to give up first.

The task of two thousand kilograms of food has been achieved since last year. This year, it is a long-term accumulation task, and it is not anxious. Suxi estimates that the growing farms of Zai Zai should be able to achieve this goal after the autumn harvest this year. .

As for making million three dollars--

She was thinking about how to get to know the richest man in Yan country through other channels.

Originally, according to the route planned in the game, when the hydrangea was thrown in the market that day, Zai Zai could get in touch with Wansan Qian in that side mission.

But goddamn it! That side mission was completely killed by the cubs!

As a result, until now, Wansanqian has not appeared in the vision of her and Zai Zai.

Suxi is a little messy in the wind, I don’t know why Zzi is so repulsive to approach his harem. Since he is going to be the emperor at last, he must have taken Long Aotian's script, but Zzi has made Long Aotian a meditation. Ascetic young monk.

This matter was too urgent, so Suxi calmed down and accompanies the cubs to go around the three places of the farm official’s Imperial College.

...

On this day, Lu Huan returned from the official office and waited for a long time under the eaves as always. When the familiar wind entangled his fingertips, there was a hint of softness on his face, which had been much reduced in recent days, and he faced him. Side humanity: "I want to discuss something with you."

Suxi tugged at his left sleeve and motioned to him to say it outright. Could it be that he was thinking of this year's birthday present a few months in advance? Little kid, Suxi thought so.

But what Zai Zai wants to say is a more important thing.

In the past few months, Zai Zai has continued to expand the farm's business. After he took up the post of Foreign Lang, the second member of the Ministry of Defense, he began to have a salary, and he had previously received a reward from the emperor, and he took a lot of silver from the old lady. There was no shortage of silver, but the farm was short of manpower, so he turned it like this. busy.

The farm gradually expanded to eight. In addition to the capital, he also set up a farm in Ningxian, Fengzhou, and Shandu.

Suxi unlocked all three places with him, and watched Zai Zai go to those three places in person, choosing to hire someone to take care of those farms.

In every farm, he used the convenience of greenhouses and cold-proof sheds to let workers cultivate in spring and harvest in autumn. Now that the end of autumn has come, the grain output has naturally far exceeded two thousand kilograms.

And these grains far exceed the output of other farms and plantations. He asked the workers to give alms to the poor people everywhere in Yan Country in an anonymous way.

Since the frost disaster last winter, many people in Yan Country have been displaced, unable to eat hot meals, and starved to death.

Although the food is not enough to solve the plight of too many people, it is also enough to make some of them survive.

This is also a piece of accumulated good deeds.

And because of this, the rumors of an "unknown benevolent rich businessman" gradually began to circulate in the market, and he was grateful to this rich businessman who helped the common people but did not show off.

This word has not yet reached the emperor’s ears, but most of the officials in the capital have heard of it. This is similar to the faceless genius doctor who saved thousands of people at Yongan Temple last winter. , It is inevitable that people will associate two things together.

But Zai Zai has been busy with these these months, and his purpose is definitely more than that.

While the entire Yan Country’s food prices are soaring and the yields of all the farms that grow crops are extremely poor, the yields of the farms he and Suxi manage are as usual, even higher than the record for the highest yield per mu in previous years——

It will naturally attract some people's attention.

Wan Sanqian, Zhong Ganping, and some other wealthy businessmen in the capital have tried every means to inquire, and even some people with bad intentions sneak into the farm outside the city to try to figure out the principle of cold shelter and greenhouse.

However, the drawings are only available here in Suxi and Lu Huan. Even if these wealthy merchants find carpenters with extraordinary craftsmanship, they cannot distinguish the kerosene lamps that have long been condensed into powder, the thickness of the kraft paper, and the amount of control of the wood. They might be self-defeating.

In other words, cold-proof sheds and greenhouses, two things advanced in the Yan Country dynasty, brought great convenience to crop planting. It is equivalent to a patented technology, only Suxi and Zai Zai have here.

If you want to expand the scale of farms, carry out mass production, and feed more people, you need more manpower and external resources.

So Zai Zai intends to recruit a starter.

He understood Suxi as soon as he said it. In fact, he wanted to chain the farms with greenhouses and cold-proof sheds, and find a cooperator who would not betray.

The candidate Zai Zai considered was Zhong Ganping.

Zhong Ganping, who started from scratch, was not a cunning and treacherous person from the day of contact. What's more, after the Yongan Temple incident, his youngest son was saved by Zai Zai, and Zai Zai had a life-saving grace for his family, and he should never repay virtue with complaints. Therefore, this person can still be trusted.

Suxi immediately pulled Zazai's left sleeve, expressing her agreement with her hands.

Zai Zai’s vision is very accurate, and he has never made a mistake in his decision-making. Suxi is very relieved to him. In addition, Zhong Ganping in the system in the column of [Meeting Heroes] is also completely and sincerely compliant. Cub cub, even more shows that there will be no problems.

In fact, the cubs have grown rapidly over the past year, and the cubs raised by Suxi, the farther they go, the less they can help them.

All the problems can be solved by yourself.

Despite this, Zai Zai had problems every time, and he still had to take her to discuss it, probably to make sure that she was always by his side.

Suxi thought of this, and looked at the thinner cub standing under the eaves, a warm feeling swelled in his heart, and couldn't help but stretched out his hand again and grabbed the cub's bun face.

Baozi's face has lost a lot of weight, and he hasn't played Q before, Suxi feels resentment.

Zai Zai was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he rubbed his face, his ears were a little red.

But after a while, it seemed that he couldn't help it, facing the void, saying every word: "I'm about to turn sixteen, and I'm not a kid anymore, you--"

He seemed a little bit angry and helpless, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't treat me as a child."

Seeing him holding a huge bun face, Suxi couldn't help laughing out of the screen when he said this.

But the cub on the screen seemed to notice that she was amused by him, frowned and looked into the void without speaking.

He pursed his lips, and his dark eyes were fixed, reflecting the extinguishing candlelight under the eaves, with complex, dark, obstinate, and unspeakable meaning.

...

Zai Zai avoided hydrangea in the market and missed that side mission, but Suxi was pleasantly surprised that after the autumn harvest, Wansanqian took the initiative to find the door.

Wan Sanqian was not the same as Suxi imagined. He turned out to be a little skinny, but despite his thin body, his expression on his face was very shrewd.

He came to the door because it was naturally a matter of the cold-proof shed and the greenhouse.

Every time Zai Zai goes back to the farm, his whereabouts are extremely hidden. So far, there have been rumors in Beijing and even Fengzhou Sanzhou. They all know that there is a wealthy businessman who saves the world, but does not know the real identity of the rich businessman.

After all, the cub cub Shenlong saw the head but not the end, and he explained to the master Ding several times afterwards, all in the form of notes.

But since this Wansanqian can become the richest man in Yan Country, he obviously has two brushes. Although he has not found out the identity of the cub, he has traced the cub's whereabouts.

So on this day, when Zai Zai was in the outer city house, Wan Sanqian came in person.

In order to show his sincerity, Wan San Qian didn't bring anyone, just a personal family member.

He wanted to buy Suxi and Zai Zai’s cold-proof shed and the blueprint technology of the greenhouse. The price offered was tens of thousands of taels of gold. This price made Suxi’s tongue stunned, and his eyes were filled with $$!

Worthy of being the richest man in the country!

But Suxi knew that if the drawing technology was given to him today, he would use this technology to earn more or even double the amount of silver after taking it away. At that time, the people of Yan Country and even other countries would be sacked.

This is the difference between him and Zhong Ganping. During the war, Zhong Ganping honestly made some money and then helped the people, while Wansanqian took the opportunity to make a big profit from the war.

I can't say that this ten thousand dollars is not enough, can only say that he is a shrewd and ambitious businessman.

It is naturally impossible for Zai Zai to give him the drawing, but he still intends to cooperate with him.

With the strength of Zhong Ganping and Zai Zai, if we want to improve the current plight of food shortage in the entire Yan country, the strength is still too weak and the arrival is too slow.

In Yan Country, only Wansanqian has such financial resources.

What's more, Zai Zai also needs the 30,000 stones, food and grass to support the war in the North.

So Zai Zai negotiated with Wansanqian and asked Zhong Ganping to operate the cold-proof shed and greenhouse, and Wansanqian contributed the farm, labor, crops, chickens, ducks, and raw materials. This model is equivalent to Wansanqian's capital investment. After the profit comes out, dividends are distributed according to the profit point.

Wansanqian is passive at the moment.

Because heard that Zhong Ganping had the most advanced technology and its output far exceeded that of other farms’ farms, wealthy businessmen in the capital and even the entire Yan Country were all eager to invest and get a share of the pie. For this vote, Zai Zai does not lack his vote.

Suxi was doing his homework while turning on the screen while watching the profit negotiations between the cub and Wansanqian that popped up on the screen, couldn’t help but smile knowingly, thinking that the cub was a small business expert even in modern times. This circle of investment Ability to leverage.

The cooperation was quickly reached. Although Wansanqian could not get what he wanted, he also understood the truth that people are not so happy.

This person and Zhong Ganping's technology will soon bring a new generation to all farms in Yan Country.

Even though this person's fundamental purpose seems to be for the people of Yan Country, he predicts that soon, this person will become the upstart among the wealthy businessmen of Yan Country.

At this moment, his participation in this capital is absolutely profitable without loss.

After Wansanqian left, Suxi's screen popped up to complete the task.

[Congratulations on completing task two: the grain output reached 2,000 kg, and I got to know the richest man Wansanqian. 】

[Congratulations on getting +8 points! 】

This task is the one that has been delayed the longest, but it would take a year for planting and harvesting, so Suxi feels that progress is still very smooth.

She looked at the current 62 points, feeling a little excited.

But soon, task six is about to be completed.

The sixth task is to manage the famine, to move the capital, to obtain the title of "unknown divine merchant", which initially attracted the emperor's attention.

This task itself is parallel to task two.

In the past few months, Zai Zai has been expanding the farm day and night, although the purpose is to raise the food and grass of the northern army, but it also happens to be on the main line.

As the entry threshold for investment injection and playing this ticket, Wansanqian took the initiative to hire a escort and escorted the grain to the northern front line in accordance with the requirements of the cubs the next day.

General Zhen Yuan and others were anxious for months, and the food and grass that had been pending for four months was solved in this way. In the Throne Room the next day, the matter exploded.

...

The emperor was so energetic, and his face was joyful, and said to General Zhen Yuan: "The general is indeed the pillar of the country. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do in this battle!"

The prime minister, the prince, and several other officials were not very good. Obviously, they did not expect General Zhen Yuan to actually solve the matter.

General Zhen Yuan was also shocked. Before March, Lu Huan told him that there was a way to persuade Wansanqian to send the grain and grass to the door automatically. He thought the boy was boasting about going to Haikou, and he didn't know how the sky was high and the earth was thick!

But he never expected that in these three months, when he led the other soldiers and did everything possible to raise only a few thousand stones of grain and grass, Lu Huan really persuaded Wan Sanqian to send grain and grass to the front. The return is tens of thousands of stones, and the whole year of this year’s grain and grass have been worry-free!

General Zhen Yuan was ecstatic, and he was even more sure of the recommendation of the Minister of War.

Thinking of this, he planned to ask for a position for Lu Huan's kid.

"Your Majesty, the old minister was able to successfully solve the food and grass dilemma this time. Thanks to someone in the account, the old minister wanted to seek a promotion for him."

If it were above the court, it was all Lu Huan's work to say this, I'm afraid Lu Huan will make countless enemies, it is better to let him be under his command for the time being, wait until the wings are completely full, and then try something else.

The emperor was very relaxed and happy at this time. Hearing that General Zhen Yuan said that someone under his command had merit, he thought it was meritorious in lobbying Wansan Qian, so he naturally gave the reward without hesitation.

When General Zhen Yuan said it was Lu Huan, he couldn't help but smiled and praised: "I have some impressions of this young man. The Taiwei also praised me before. At a young age, he can win both the general and the Taiwei. Appreciation, you should be truly a talent, and I will see you in the future."

Of course, despite saying so, how could the emperor remember the name of a small official at this time?

...

That night, the official ya of the Second Department of the Ministry of War immediately came to the imperial decree, and appointed Lu Huan as the captain of the riding captain, and supervising Yulin riding, from the fourth rank.

The principals of the second division were all stunned. saw that their member Wai Lang often went to General Zhen Yuan’s mansion earlier, thinking that he was just doing chores for General Zhen Yuan. After all, General Zhen Yuan didn’t like them in the Ministry of War. All of them belonged to some intrigue literati.

However, he never expected that after a few months, Lu Huan was promoted again!

At only sixteen years old, he has been from the fourth product!

The principals of the second department were envious. Even the second doctor was a little jealous. Seeing that Lu Huan was promoted to two positions in succession, now he was even higher than him.

In General Zhen Yuan's mansion, General Zhen Yuan was very happy, and set a banquet for Lu Huan, toasting Yun Taiwei and other friends one by one, and let them take care of Lu Huan one or two.

General Zhen Yuan has no children. To a bastard of King Ning's Mansion, is it because he intends to adopt it?

The old lady of King Ning's Mansion can be regarded as the distant relative of General Zhen Yuan. If she adopts, the young man who is barely related to him by blood is indeed the best candidate——

However, in the past, General Zhen Yuan was the one who looked down upon King Ning's Mansion the most!

Everyone watched their noses, noses, and hearts, and they couldn't help but take a high look at this young man who has been making prominence in the capital for a year. In the future, I am afraid that they will treat each other with the capable men of General Zhen Yuan.

So, one after another went to toast.

The previous principal and doctor had to call Master Lu.

At the same time, the King Ning's Mansion also exploded. Lu Huan has moved away from King Ning's Mansion for more than a few months, and in just a few months, he actually won the favor of General Zhen Yuan, and he was promoted to the fourth rank of the military department? !

The old lady was very excited. She wanted her servants to hurry up and invite Lu Huan back, but when she thought that Lu Huan was having a party at General Zhen Yuan's mansion, she tried her best to restrain her excitement.

At this time, she did not realize that Lu Huan had determined to draw a clear relationship with King Ning's Mansion, and thought it was her wise decision to send this concubine to the court as an official, otherwise this concubine would have today!

And Mrs. Ning Wang, who had been devastated since her family's downfall, heard the news and naturally felt very hateful.

Aside from this, a message popped up quickly on Suxi’s screen:

[Congratulations on completing task six: managing the famine, moving the capital, winning the title of "unknown divine merchant", which initially attracted the attention of the emperor. 】

[Congratulations on getting points bonus +10! 】

Suxi's heart is damned, Zai Zai has been so busy these few months that she has lost so much weight. These two parallel tasks have been completed directly together. Now the points-

She counted, her eyes lit up with excitement, and she had 72 points!

Lieutenant Qi is a partial post. From the fourth rank, he is in charge of Yulin Qi. The official uniform is crimson, with a lion tattoo on it. Suxi looks like it very much. So far, Cub Cub has saved three official uniforms. She looked very fulfilled.

Tonight, Zai Zai was supposed to be socializing at General Zhen Yuan’s mansion, but I didn’t know why, but suddenly came back midway, followed by a person from General Zhen Yuan’s mansion, as if he had just told him something, which made him extremely excited. .

He wasn't sure if Suxi was or not, but he rushed back from the general's house immediately.

Suxi didn’t know what had happened to make Zai Zai so happy, so happy that the corners of his eyebrows and eyes lit up, faintly ecstatic--he has been busy day and night in the past few months, and has lost a lot of weight, as if for this moment.

Is it because of promotion?

Suxi was a little funny in her heart. She thought Zai Zai should be calm about getting promoted and getting rich.

It is not easy for Zai Zai to walk step by step from the small chai yard of King Ning's Mansion to today. She is always happy for Zai Zai to explode, but Zai Zai herself, always in honor and disgrace.

Today it was the other way around. Grandma saw him being promoted as if he saw him get another good grade in the exam. She was already used to it, but he walked fast, as if running towards the moon.

Suxi closed the door when he saw him coming in and blocked the guards outside, knowing that he should be looking for himself.

So he pulled a piece of pear blossom and stuffed it in his palm.

The sixteen-year-old boy ran through the market and rushed back, his white forehead was still covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Panting, he looked down at the snow-white pear blossoms in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were smiling unconsciously.

Immediately, he looked into the void, his eyes sparkled with ecstasy, as if he was going crazy with joy.

In Suxi's eyes, Zai Zai Baozi's face was full of unprecedented excitement, and several rows of small suns were lying on top of her head--what's wrong?

Suxi was exaggerated by his excitement and excitement, and couldn't help but smile, tugging at his hair, trying to figure out what happened.

Then he listened to Zai Zai trying his best to hold back his ecstasy, took a deep breath, and said to her: "I found someone who can help you host!"

It seemed that he was too excited, his voice was trembling.

His eyes were full of hope: "Shall we go to see that person tonight?"

Suxi:...

She breathed for a second.

She never expected that in the past few months, the cubs would be crowing up, working day and night, and even too late to eat a few more mouthfuls. She was so thin that her eye sockets were often reddened. It turned out that it was because of this.

Recently, she saw that Zai Zai hadn't studied those books about the spirits, and thought that Zai Zai had finally given up, and she was relieved.

But it turns out--

Zai Zai's obsession was far deeper than she had imagined.

...

Suxi looked at such a cub.

She looked at the cub who didn't know what was going on ahead, and whose eyes were full of longing and hope, her heart suddenly hung high.

Nothing happened yet, but her eyes were sore and her heart hurt.
