The King of Chu was walking a little staggering, but fortunately there was the chief servant Jiang Xiangfu beside him. After the King of Chu, the Zuo Tu Zhaoshu followed him. Seeing him, Huang Xie immediately understood why the King of Chu came so quickly. This was simply the Jing Party’s plan. First, let the honest Gongshujian offer the water wheel, and then test it in front of the Lingyin’s mansion, and finally invited the King of Chu...

Huang Xie felt an ominous feeling, but it was useless to regret it at this point. He could only step behind the King of Chu, and then he asked the King of Chu to reward Xiong Jing more to end the matter as soon as possible.

When Huang Xie thought to himself, he entered the city with Gongshujian. Ji Lingjun, who was standing next to the water wheel, bowed to the King of Chu, and said, "Tell the King: This is the white dragon water wheel built by Prince Jing. When Gongshu doctor saw that it came out of the water and entered the dragon, the water was white, so it was called a white dragon."

The workers on the water wheel did not stop under the supervision of Ji Lingjun. Xiong Yuan walked closer and the sound of water rustled, and the splashed waves hit his Zhu Shang, and half of his body was wet. Chang Jiang hurriedly advised: "King, the water is very cool, I'm afraid..."

"No obstacle." The summer is hot, and Xiong Yuan, who was soaked by water, not only did not feel uncomfortable, but felt a cool feeling.

"King, the water truck with a single water truck comes out ten times that of orange steak. If it is used to irrigate the fields, the corn in our Chu Kingdom will be abundant." Yu Yin not only had water on his body, but also had water on his hair and beard, but the old man didn't care at all, and he told him loudly as soon as he saw the King of Chu.

"How valuable is the water truck?" Xiong Yuan was king for 25 years. Although he was entrusted to the imperial court for all matters, he was definitely not aware of government affairs. Water trucks are good, even if a single person comes out of water, it is ten times more expensive than a tangerine. No matter how good the people can't afford it, it's useless.

"King, Prince Jing said that if it is made on a large scale, the single person can be as low as less than 300 coins, the double person can be only 400 coins, and the ox drives six hundred coins." Gongshujian and Xiong Jing chatted for a long time in the morning, remembering a lot of things.

"Below three hundred coins?" Everyone was moved by the hearing. The cost of buying clothes for a commoner every year is almost three hundred coins. The water wheel is exquisitely designed and has a dragon-like body. Everyone thought it was necessary to have a gold medal, but who expected it would only cost three hundred coins.

"Three hundred coins... cough cough... Three hundred coins can?" After the lesson from the last crossbow, Yin Dao, the worker behind Huang Xie, wanted to speak but stopped. As the Zuo Tuan Zhaoshu of the Jing Party, did not believe that this price could be used to build a water truck. He only asked the King of Chu not to go into it. Unexpectedly, the King of Chu was very confused and asked in a deep voice.

"Prince Jing said: Ordinary workshops may cost more than a thousand yuan, but they only cost 300 yuan, but they must be made on a large scale." Gong Shujian mentioned the word "massive manufacturing", but his tone was not firm.

"What is large-scale manufacturing?" Of course, Xiong Yuan cannot understand the modern industrial term, but this is the condition of 'no three hundred coins'.

"I... don't know." Gongshujian was stunned for a long time and found that he couldn't explain what 'mass manufacturing' was, so he had to answer. "Please call Prince Jing to ask."

"I also ask the king to summon Prince Jing. The drought is approaching, so we should build water trucks quickly to help all the people." It rains in early summer, but there are many droughts in summer and autumn. Yu Yin was thinking about the millet and wheat in the fields, hoping to build a mansion and build a water truck immediately so as not to stop the farming season.

"Summon Jing'er to the court tomorrow morning." Xiong Yuan turned his head and ordered Chang Jiang. As soon as this said, Huang Xie's heart beat suddenly, but fortunately he did not faint - heart disease is a genetic disease, Huang Xie was born into a royal family and his heart was not good.

"Yi." Chang Jiang bowed and agreed.

"Stop. Who are you waiting for?" The King of Chu left the palace, and the men in the palace were surrounded and guarded. Unexpectedly, a crowd of people came from the corner of the street in the dark, so the guards naturally shouted, and the sword and halberd were aimed at the visitor.

"Don't drown Yingdu! Don't drown Yingdu..." Rumors confused the crowd. The crowds running from the city heard the sound of water at the corner of the street. Before they reached the foot of Ling Yin's mansion, they stepped on deep water. These people were even hurried and scared, and rushed over in a mess and just stopped by the palace guards.

"Who wants to flood Yingdu?" Under the sword and halberd, all the people came to kneel down, and the driver Cai Bao stepped forward and asked.

"The villain heard that Prince Jing subdued the six dragons of Huai River to the imperial court. Now that the six dragons spit out water, Yingdu will disappear in a moment..." The caller's voice was very loud, probably hoping that Prince Jing could hear it so that he could stop the six water dragons. Huang Xie's face changed when he heard this, and he felt his legs were weak; Zuo Tu Zhaoshu smiled, and this time he finally avenged the auspicious revenge last time - after tomorrow, Prince Jing subdued the water dragon generals all over the city, and the people of Chu firmly believed that he was the king of the Daxing Chu State.

"Stop." Xiong Yuan also showed a faint smile on his face, but the smile flashed and he immediately ordered the water truck to stop.

After the arrival of the King of Chu, the people of the water trucks were all exerted. Now, the six water trucks finally stopped. They could not hear the sound of water. The people who petitioned outside immediately shouted loudly, "Prince Jing... Holy King" said endlessly.

"The people are frightened, I am guilty of my crime." Xiong Yuan seemed to blame himself, "Chang Jiang! I will give me wine and food to comfort me."

"Yi." Chang Jiang promised again. After his king's order, the faces of the people in the Yin Mansion changed drastically. Once these half-true and half-false common people who were deceived by rumors were given wine and food, the rumors that Prince Jing subdued Liulong would spread throughout the Chu State. The spread of rumors was not scary, but what was scary was the attitude of the King of Chu. Maybe, the King of Chu would make Prince Jing the crown prince tomorrow morning.

"What if the king sets up a prince Jing tomorrow morning?" Huang Xie, who was outside Shouying City, was most worried about the prince's name, and Li Yuan, who was most worried about the prince's name, was restless and walked back and forth in the atrium. Huang Xie was unwell on the road and rested as soon as he entered the palace. He could only discuss with Zhu Guan.

"If the king set up Prince Jing tomorrow morning, we can do nothing." Zhu Guan drank a muffled wine. He really didn't expect that the Jing party would spread rumors and cause trouble. 'Uns subdued the six dragons of Huai River... Yingdu was not in a moment...'. It was a pity that they could think of it, and he murmured: "The Jing party is all pedantic nobles. Today's plan must be guided by experts."

"A master's advice?" Li Yuan was also a smart person. He heard this and said, "Is it not Ji Lingjun? Yang or Zhao's people?"

"Jun Ji Ling? It's just a lustful person. Zhao State does not know the nature of the Chu people and cannot think of such a plan." Zhu Guan has always disdained those vassals. "Today's affairs, Gongshujian will first give a car to the front of the palace, and then ask the king to go out of the palace to inquire. Then he rumored the common people in the city and asked the people to worship each other. Tomorrow, the king will not make Prince Jing the eldest son, but will only ask him to supervise the construction of a water truck of three hundred coins..."

As the saying goes, accomplishing things with power, in Zhu Guan’s opinion, today’s momentum is not enough to establish a eldest son, so he just now advised the lord not to worry.

"Supervising the construction of a water truck of three hundred coins?" Li Yuan was not present in the afternoon, he was just listening to people retelling today's events.

"The water wheel of Prince Jing is an ordinary craftsman who must make more than a thousand dollars, but he said he has a wonderful method, and three hundred dollars can be made. The king believed it. If he summoned Prince Jing to inquire tomorrow morning, he would ask him to supervise the water wheel." Zhu Guan said his guess, but in his heart he was very taboo about using the water wheel to create momentum. The water wheel is not a crossbow, and the water wheel implicates thousands of households. The king ordered Prince Jing to supervise the water wheel to build the water wheel. On the surface, he did not believe his words, but in fact he was building momentum for him. In time, the people of Chu all said that Prince Jing was virtuous and loved the people, so it would be natural to make him the crown prince.

"Zi Yuan sits, I must visit Gong Yin Dao quickly." Thinking of the countermeasures, Zhu Guan bowed to Li Yuan and hurried away.

"Shan, great sanity, this battle has been won!" The Academy Library, Guanzi smiled so hard that his hair was floating. He still had the same kind of marching and fighting words, saying today's affairs were a great victory. "How about Ling Yin?"

"The people in the city were trembling, fearing that the flood would flood Yingdu, and Lingyin was speechless at that time. Seeing this, the king stopped the water wheel and praised everyone for their wine and food. The people in the city thanked him." Ji Lingjun returned to the school and told Feng Guanzi and others about the events in front of Lingyin's mansion in detail, as if he had built the water wheel.

"Will the King make Prince Jing the eldest son tomorrow?" An Lingjun asked on the side. He is also one of the many vassals without fiefdoms. The difference is that because the fiefdom is in Henan, it disappeared after the war. Standing on the side of the fierce prince, you can't get any benefits, so you can only hope for Prince Jing. However, there are many twists and turns in the matter of becoming a crown prince, and he can't wait.

"The situation has not yet come, and the time has not come, so I will not establish a eldest son." Yu Guanzi is already the commander-in-chief of the Crown, and today he is the director.

"When will the momentum come?" Ji Jujun asked, and everyone looked at Feng Guanzi.

"When the people of Chu said that they would establish Prince Jing, the momentum would come." Wu Guanzi replied in a general way, and after that, he stood up and said, "Tonight, Zuo Tu Yin made an appointment, which is related to the establishment of the crown prince, and say goodbye."

"Since I see Zuo Tu, I am willing to go there." What the storm and Zuo Tu must be a big deal, and Ji Lingjun and others also want to follow him.

"The emperor has many ears and eyes, and there are not many people." Feng Guanzi smiled slightly, bowed to everyone and left.

The emperor had a fief outside the city, and the Zuo Tu Zhaoshu also had a manor in the city wall. Xiong Jing, who received the order from the king, was escorted by the palace guards at night, and Feng Guanzi came to Zhaoshu, the city wall, and met Zhaoshu, Zi.

The position of Zuo Tu was actually the leader of the eunuch of the King of Chu. In the Spring and Autumn Period, public and private divisions were separated, and the royal family was also separated from the state. The part under the royal family was under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu, and the part under the Prime Minister's Office was under the jurisdiction of the Chu State. There were also direct kings and Shaofu serving the royal family, but the Chu State's official system was different from other countries. The Shaofu was called the Dafu, and the Zuotu was the Dafu Minister.

Among the countries, the Shaofu of Qin State had the greatest power, and the Shaofu was responsible for the casting of weapons across the country. The Xiangbang was only a civilian official, only collecting land taxes and military taxes, and recording Dingkou Fu's family. The Shaofu not only collected taxes on mountains, seas, ponds, but also collected market taxes and verbal taxes. The verbal tax is the head of the people. As long as the people of a country are alive, regardless of whether they are adults or not, they will collect taxes. As a result, the Shaofu is a wealthy man, and the status and treatment of officials of the Shaofu are much higher than those of the county and county officials under the Xiangbang State.

Although the State of Chu had a title of the county magistrate to decentralize power, Shanhai and Chize made great profits, and the main palace should not be underestimated. However, when the King of Chu was ascended to the throne, he favored Huang Xie too much, and the main palace was also inserted by Huang Xie's people. He appointed Zhaoshu as the Zuotu purely for the sake of the court balance, which made it too late to change now.
