Chapter 24(1/2)
Fang Zhengyi looked up and immediately saw three people looking at him with burning eyes, and quickly called him.
"Eat! What do you think of me doing?"
"Tian Thunder!Tian Thunder!" Li Yuanzhao shouted excitedly.
"There is no heavenly thunder! How can you believe in the affairs of gods, ghosts, and monsters? Let's have a meal! After the meal, I will take Mr. Li to visit the scenery of my Taoyuan!"
Although Fang Zhengyi's expression on his face was relaxed, his mood was a little heavy.
This damn old Li! I won’t have so many worries if I don’t mention this!
I was so fucking to help the disaster when I came here to travel! I finally had two years of peace and prosperity, would I have to help the disaster?
Emperor Jing looked at Fang Zhengyi deeply with a scrutiny in his eyes, and then continued to lower his head to eat.
For a moment, the dining table fell silent and no one spoke.
After the meal, the four of them walked out of Qingchang Tower, and they all knew that they did not mention the floods of Jianjiang.
Seeing that there was some dismal incident, Fang Zheng smiled and said, "You guys came here in just a few days."
"The Japanese official is now free and has nothing to do. It happened that the noble prince is here. I personally took the three of you to take a closer look at Taoyuan County."
"If you buy something you like, you might find some new business opportunities!"
Emperor Jing also suppressed his worries and said curiously: "Mr. Fang, Li has two things that have always been unclear. I would like to ask Magistrate Fang to answer the questions."
"Speaking?"
"First, why don't Taoyuan County keep such a chance to make money by itself but just ask him to hand it over to Li."
"Secondly, Li looked around the country, and no official could think of Fang County Magistrate so polite to merchants. Why is this?"
In fact, Emperor Jing wanted to ask about these two things last time, but he didn't care about it even when he came and went in a hurry.
Nowadays, merchants in this world are a low-key business, and no one can look down on them. Fang Zhengyi's attitude is really rare and he has no airs.
"Haha! Old Li has vision! Because I am such a warm-hearted person!"
Emperor Jing: "............"
Boasting yourself is causing you to be so yes! Guo Tianyang curled his lips disdainfully.
Fang Zhengyi continued:
"There is no other reason for giving it to you. It is entirely because there are too few people in Taoyuan County who are wise and wise. The officials in Taoyuan County can still take care of you. When you go to other places, you are afraid that you will be eaten without any residue!"
"Secondly, the importance of this merchant is no less than that of a farmer and a farmer. Lao Li, you should also understand this truth!"
"It's like rice is only worth a few cents in the hands of farmers. If you get it into the county and make peach blossom fan wine, you will be worth a hundred times the price!"
"It's like the porcelain you sell from the south that you sell can be transported to the north and your value will double!"
"This all depends on the flow of merchants, which is called resource allocation! Only when the resource allocation is in place can everything be maximized, so do you think merchants are important?"
"Of course, this is only a small part of the reason. Although the outside world despises merchants, my Taoyuan County definitely does not have this atmosphere!"
"A batch of new buildings are being built on the south side of Taoyuan County. Are you interested in getting one? If the money is not enough, the county can also provide a loan!"
"I can't guarantee anything else, Taoyuan County is definitely the best choice for living and elderly care!"
He seized the time to ask Lao Li to buy a house in Taoyuan County and tried to tie him to Taoyuan County. Fang Shao's little abacus made a fuss.
Who are you a businessman? Guo Tianyang said angrily: "Businessmen are not engaged in production. If merchants are encouraged, will they go to business all over the world be confused?"
"Huh?" Fang Zheng was stunned.
Aren’t you a fucking businessman? Which end are you standing on?
Seeing that Fang Zhengyi's expression was a little awkward, Guo Tianyang knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly remedyed it: "This has been the truth since ancient times!"
Fang Zhengyi sneered: "Since ancient times, I have used silk cloth tortoise shells to write, why do you still use paper?"
"Since ancient times, we have been planting slashes and fire, why do we use plows and oxen now?"
"Is it right since ancient times? Is it right to be conservative? Everyone in the world becomes a businessman and the world is messed up, and then all the world is scholars and the world is not messed up?"
"Not everyone has the ability to study, nor everyone has the ability to be a businessman."
"Is this a contradiction between a person who can both farm and become a businessman, and who can both study and farm?"
"Old Guo! You are a businessman and your brain is too rigid!"
"Why is my Taoyuan County so rich? It is because everyone in the world despises merchants and only this county attaches importance to it, so Taoyuan County can be today!"
Guo Tianyang blushed: "If there are too many merchants, there will be fewer people and time for farming, and there will be insufficient food in the world. As you said, wouldn't it be hungry all over the land!"
"Old Li! Your account is a rebellious! He looks down on you!"
Fang Zhengyi was too lazy to pay attention to him and directly complained to Emperor Jing.
"Ah! This...I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense!" Guo Tianyang's face was full of bloodshot and quickly waved his hand to deny it.
Emperor Jing quickly smoothed out the situation and said seriously: "My account is rude. When I go back, I will discipline him well!"
Guo Tianyang was immediately aggrieved like a young wife.
Oh my mother!! The dog-good guy doesn’t follow the routine and can actually throw the blame on us!
Li Yuanzhao was excited inside and almost couldn't help but clap her hands.
Interesting! So interesting! Fang Zhengichi is indeed a wonderful person!
Not only do you appreciate each other with me, but you can also argue with others.
It would be great if there was such an interesting person in the palace.
Those masters will tell themselves the truth with a stern face!
Several people continued to stroll on the street, and people kept saying hello to Fang Zhengyi on the road, while Guo Tianyang was stern and said nothing. He had made up his mind that he would never say a word if Fang Zhengyi was present!
Li Yuanzhao looked left and right and suddenly found a book stall.
I couldn't help but feel the thought of my father going back to burn his books.
Taking this opportunity, it’s better to buy two books! I finally couldn’t let Liu Jin buy them back from the public.
If it is burned, wouldn’t there be no books to read?!
So he ran to the book stall quickly, and Fang Zhengyi and others ignored him and chatted.
Li Yuanzhao ran to the book stall and picked up a book casually, and was stunned.
The title of the book reads: "The magistrate of Fang County vs. Thanos"
"Boss! What are you writing?"
When the book stall owner saw it, he was amused: "You are from another place! You don't know this, so you just bought a book and went back to have a look!"
"This book tells the story of the extraterritorial demon Thanos invading Jingguo. County Magistrate Fang collected seven infinite gems and presented them to the emperor to send troops to wipe out the devil."
"It's so wonderful! Fifty-months a book!"
"Ah? Thanos? What is the Infinity Stone?" Li Yuanzhao was stunned. Why didn't I know that this happened!
My father has also suppressed the extraterritorial demons?
It happened that a few people rushed up at this time.
Fang Zhengyi leaned his head behind him and looked at him. His old face turned red and he couldn't help but touch his nose.
I thought to myself, which bastard wrote a book about the story he made for the child!
It seems that I should take charge of Taoyuan County’s cultural industry!
Emperor Jing laughed when he saw the title of the book.
Li Yuanzhao opened the book and looked at it with disdain, "There is actually such a book! It's all in vernacular, and so much paper wasted in vain!"
Then he picked up a few books from the book stall, such as "Young Aqiu", "Martial Knight Record", "Golden Medal County Magistrate".
After reading several Li Yuanzhaos, he wondered: "Why are all plain language? How strange!"
Emperor Jing couldn't help but look sideways, and when he saw it, he was indeed like this: "Mr. Fang County! Can everyone in Taoyuan County publish a book? And this book is all in vernacular."
This era basically uses classical Chinese, written in vernacular, and it is simply insignificant to the eyes of scholars. It must be criticized, so Fang Zhengyi does not find it strange if they have this question.
Fang Zhengyi explained: "Not bad! As long as I pay for the Yinfang in Taoyuan County, I can publish a book for people! As for this vernacular, there are no scholars in Taoyuan County, so it is not easy to be able to recognize words!"
"If you have a book, it is great to learn more words. Those rude things have no meaning!"
Li Yuanzhao retorted: "So shallow! It's a waste of paper!!"
Fang Zheng was not annoyed when he laughed and smiled. This is the limitation of thinking, just like the elderly Shamatt looked down on the young man in spirit.
But the times will give the answer.
"How vulgar is the vernacular language? What is a good book? People can understand it, and they think it is useful are good books."
"If I print some Four Books and Five Sutras for them, it will only increase the troubles of the people. If those who are ambitious to learn will naturally find more advanced books."
"A few years ago, the people in Taoyuan were still refugees. All the fingers in the county that could understand words were counted. Now most people are willing to read this leisure book in their spare time. Is it okay?"
Li Yuanzhao said dissatisfied: "Of course not! Such vulgar words are not tainted by people's eyes. Besides, what can be clearly stated in a few words is written so long in vernacular!"
