Vol 2 Chapter 911: Game (three shifts)

Lu Dapop's face turned blue and his eyes breathed fire!
I don't know what magic Gu Jiu used to make Zhou Shian resign to teach at Shanhe Academy.
It's so angry!
It was hard to win over a talent, and was pried at the corner on the way. This matter is uncomfortable on anyone.
Master Lu couldn't get angry at Zhou Shian, so he could only be sullen in his life, sullenly ignored.
Zhou Shian knew he was wrong.
"I have been taken care of by adults over the years, and I feel that I am within five years. If an adult is sent, no matter when and where, I will never refuse."
Master Lu suppressed his anger, "You can't wait. I'll talk about resigning in two years?"
Zhou Shian shook his head, "I have wasted too many years, and I can't continue to waste it."
It is said that being an official is a waste of time!
Master Lu wanted to get angry, but finally sighed again and again.
"Really no longer consider it?"
"Betrayed the cultivation of adults, please forgive me."
Zhou Shian made up his mind to teach at Shanhe Academy.
Even ten cows, never want to bring him back.
Master Lu waved his hand, "Fine, nothing, the twisted melon is not sweet. The official doesn't force you, but don't forget to come and take a look. Although you are not in officialdom, the affection between you and me is still there."
"Thank you, sir!"
Zhou Shian felt relieved.
"When are you going to move to Shanhe Academy?"
"Move in tomorrow."
"So anxious?"
"I want to settle down earlier and write a book at ease."
"Alright! Now that the decision has been made, there is no need to procrastinate. Tomorrow I will let the housekeeper move for you."
"No trouble. The college will send someone over tomorrow to help move."
"The college is a college, and the official is the official. In short, I will arrange someone to help you move tomorrow."
"Thank you, sir." Zhou Shian responded helplessly.
After settling down in the academy, Zhou Shian closed the door without being disturbed and began to concentrate on writing.
I have lived for most of my life, experienced all kinds of ups and downs, and have a lot of things to say and write.
Looking at the gray beard in the mirror, Zhou Shian felt that there were not many days left, and he dared not waste a moment. I can't wait to write everything I want to write in one breath.
...
Master Lu couldn't get rid of his anger.
He gave Gu Jiu a greeting and wanted to talk to Gu Jiu.
Being a man can't be tasteless.
Gu Jiu received the post and threw it aside.
She ridiculed: "Master Lu intends to ask questions, why don't you think that he cut the beard from my hands in the first place."
That year, Gu Jiu personally came forward to persuade Zhou Shian to teach at Shanhe Academy.
Zhou Shian agreed, but before signing the agreement he was fooled by Master Lu, and he went to the Ministry of Science and Technology as an errand.
At that time, Shanhe Academy was thirsty for talents, and it was a bit shabby to have Yang Yuanqing, a Sanyuan Gong, supporting the facade.
At the beginning, Gu Jiu was very angry.
This time, Master Lu also tasted the taste of being intercepted.
Xu Yousi asked, "Does the princess want to see Master Lu? People from the Lu Mansion are waiting for news in the concierge."
Gu Jiu picked up the greeting card again and glanced at it. "It's rare that Master Lu gave a greeting card. Of course, if you want to see you, you have to sweep your bed to welcome you. Tell the servants of Lu Mansion that this princess will be waiting for Lu in Xiaozhu three days later. My lord."
...
The three-day period came in an instant.
Master Lu took a four-wheeled carriage to Xiaozhu in the mountains.
It is late autumn, and the leaves are falling yellow.
The wheels crushed the leaves, making a crunching noise.
Master Lu closed his eyes and rested.
He didn't open his eyes until the carriage drove into Xiaozhu.
"My princess is waiting in the flower hall, my lord, please."
The first time Master Lu came to Xiaozhu, curiosity was inevitable.
Pavilions and pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, reveal exquisite luxury everywhere.
When he arrived at the Flower Hall, the glass windows on three sides shocked Master Lu.
"My lord, please, my princess is waiting inside."
Master Lu walked into the flower hall and smelled the fragrance of tea.
"The princess is in great interest!"
"My lord comes to the humble house, and the room is brilliant. My lord, please sit down!"
Gu Jiu stood up to greet him.
The maid makes tea, and the maid plays the piano.
The sound of the piano is melodious and refreshing.
Master Lu drank a fragrant tea and made good tea.
"Zhuangzi in the south has set up two tea hills. Tea is not the best. You can drink new tea all year round."
"I have long heard that the princess has bought several Zhuangzi in the south, but I didn't expect to buy Chashan."
When Gu Jiu mentioned adding water to the teapot, she said unhurriedly: "In the past few years, the southern region was drought, and the quantity and quality of tea had both declined, and the price was still unsatisfactory. Many tea merchants had difficulty operating and had to sell their assets to tide over the difficulties. At that time, I had some spare money on hand, so I bought two tea hills and hired people to grow tea and pick tea. The tea industry seems to be profitable, but the investment is huge. The advantage is that it can provide job opportunities for most of the local population and let the local people Make a hard money."
"The princess always seems to be able to take labor issues into consideration when doing business."
Gu Jiu smiled softly: "A market cannot be supported by aristocrats alone. Only when Xiaomin has money in his hands and is willing to spend money on consumption, the market will grow bigger and the profits will grow. High. Whether it is tea, meat, or cloth, it depends on the quantity. Quantity requires population support. Similarly, the court must collect taxes, and must count on the small people to have grain and money. After all, the court has no skills. Collect a penny of tax from the noble family."
This is too shameful.
Master Lu coughed slightly, "The drawbacks of tax collection are problems that have been accumulated over hundreds of years and cannot be solved overnight."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "I understand the truth. The founding of the motherland requires the support of the family, so he acquiesced to the family without paying taxes according to the old rules, and tacitly agreed that the family could hoard fields and raise slaves. The advantage is that the Zhou Dynasty was stable and all opposed. The power is wiped out. The downside is that over time, it will inevitably drag down the court's finances. When wars, famines, imperial ills accumulate, internal and external troubles, the dynasty is at its end. This is also the fundamental reason why any dynasty cannot escape the fate of 300 years. "
In summary, land mergers are serious and the gap between rich and poor is huge.
The people who cannot survive can only rebel and seek a way out.
Master Lu looked solemn, "Does the princess have a good plan?"
"Didn't the adults have seen it? Since the interests of the aristocratic family can't be touched, then find a way to give Xiaomin a way to survive, and let him have an extra way to make money."
Gu Jiu looked at Master Lu with a smile.
Master Lu raised his eyebrows, "This official didn't expect the princess to talk shallowly."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Although I don't have much contact with adults, I can trust the character of adults. Even if the adults tell your majesty, I don't need to worry. Your majesty always knows what I'm doing."
"Therefore, the princess's industry can expand rapidly and has never been suppressed by the court."
"This princess is not only doing business, but also solving the plight of the people. What reason does the court have to suppress the industry under my name?"
Master Lu laughed, "The "Shanhe College Newspaper" published by Shanhe College often publishes some taboo articles, but it has never been suppressed by the Press Department. Obviously because Shanhe College upholds free schooling, it has won your majesty's intention. The so-called taking it from the people and using it for the people not only benefited the students of Guangzhou University, but also saved the princess from disaster."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "Master Lu sees far-reachingly, and this princess seems unable to refute."
Master Lu raised his eyebrows, "Madam runs Shanhe College, really to avoid disaster?"
"Accurately speaking, running a college can serve multiple purposes. It can not only avoid disasters, but also discover talents and provide an ideal place for children to study."
"Yet it costs two million dollars every year."
"worth it!"
Master Lu shook his head again and again, "How big a return does it take for a million taels of investment per year to be considered'worthy'? It's not so much about digging for talents, it's about reserving talents."
Gu Jiu filled the teacup with water, "My lord came to the door today to defeat the princess?"
Master Lu shook his head again, "This official is assessing how ambitious the princess really is."
"Oh? Then dare to ask, do you have an answer?"
"The princess is subverting the dynasty." Master Lu said loudly, "Compared to the rebellious anti-thief, it is more harmful."
"No!"
Gu Jiu's face was calm, and was not frightened by Master Lu's words.
"The dynasty is continuing the old road of the previous dynasty, and I am trying to find a new way."
"Your new path may bring the dynasty to the point where it will never recover."
"My princess remembers that the adults didn't say that when they were in front of your majesty. The adults have clearly said that you can try a new path. Why is it becoming stubborn and conservative today?"
Master Lu laughed, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the princess."
Gu Jiu listened quietly.
"The princess wants to find a new way, which means that there is only one way for you and His Royal Highness to go."
Gu Jiu nodded, without denying, "This road has already seen the light of day."
Master Lu thought about it and said: "This official dare to guess that the reason why your majesty changed his mind is mostly because of the son."
Gu Jiu was noncommittal.
Master Lu shook his head and smiled, "What is the attitude of His Royal Highness King Qin?"
Gu Jiu didn't rush to answer. Instead, he asked, "What's your position to ask this question?"
Master Lu said of course: "Identity as an important court minister."
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows, "Not your Majesty's confidant?"
"He is not only the confidant of this majesty, but also a heavy court minister."
"One day in the future, there will be a change of people in the palace, what will the adults do?"
"Of course it is to do one's own duty."
"What is the point?" Gu Jiu kept asking.
Master Lu said with a serious face: "As a courtier's duty, protect your majesty's great Zhou Jiangshan."
Gu Jiu laughed, "The attitude of the princess is the attitude of His Royal Highness Qin."
Master Lu was obviously a little surprised.
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "I know what the adults are thinking. Liu Zhao is not as conservative as the adults think. He can listen to the opinions of others."
"Because of this, this officer is worried. I am worried that if I take too much steps, I am eager to achieve success, and I will eventually burn myself."
"Thank you for your reminder. I will reflect on myself from time to time and strive to move forward in small steps."
