Hu Yanzhuo went to Fuhu Army and witnessed the strict appearance and strong combat power of Fuhu Army with his own eyes, and his heart was even more shocked.
Especially the 10,000 Iron Cavalry of the Fuhu who were armed to the teeth.
The configuration of four war horses on his own was not even the elite Western Army of the Song Dynasty's imperial guards.
But Hu Yanzhuo did not expect that the Fuhu Iron Cavalry, who had just formed an army, had tens of thousands of good horses.
A large army of 100,000 and a cavalry of 10,000, such a prosperous army is enough to tie the Western Army.
The power of military and horse exercises is still firmly in Yue Fei's hands. The handling of Qingzhou government affairs is mainly Hua Rong, and the consolidation of the magistrate is supplemented. Wang Lin is still a hand-off manager.
What he lacks the most now is time.
It takes time for a new army to be formed and to form combat effectiveness.
To support such a large army, it requires a lot of money, materials and food as support, which also takes time.
The silver left by Murong Yanda was consumed half of the money left by him on the 10,000 Iron Cavalry of Fuhu.
The six states under his jurisdiction have a population of less than 2 million. Although the territory is large, the income tax is limited.
It is a dream to rely entirely on the court to provide the supply. The current Song Dynasty court cannot afford to offer too much money to the Fuhu Army.
The Western Army alone had already made the Song Dynasty difficult.
Therefore, for Wang Lin, Murong Wan'er, who operates trade overseas, seems very important.
Although Meng Yulou is also a good businessman, both the overall situation and the means are not on the same level as Murong Wan'er.
After repeated consideration, Wang Lin had already developed the idea of cooperating with Murong to build a Bohai business.
Leave the business to Murong Wan'er, concentrate on making money.
He needs a lot of money, piles of food and grass, and more advanced military equipment, all of which require money.
Without money, preparing for war is just empty talk.
The gold and silver mineral reserves on the front line of Qingzhou in Laizhou are abundant, but unfortunately these are all under the jurisdiction of the Song Dynasty, so it is difficult for Wang Lin to get a piece of the pie unless he rebelled by the Song Dynasty court now.
Therefore, Wang Lin hid in the mansion and stayed in his doorstep for the past two days, thinking about how to make money.
To be honest, Wang Lin seems more pragmatic than many time travelers are keen on developing glass cement, improving firearms and artillery, and even promoting the advancement of the steam industry era.
After all, he is not a technical engineering man.
Not to mention that he knew nothing about the technical principles of the above-mentioned epoch-making machine products, even if he gave him a ready-made drawing, he could not make steam engines or airplane cannons.
The main reason is that there is no time to farm and slowly develop.
The Jin people are about to invade in full swing. Once the war begins, what can he do if he builds one or two cannons? It will not change the overall situation at all.
Because of this, he had more time left in Meng Yu's building invisibly.
He occasionally becomes a little pragmatically close to the new business concept of this era, and he needs someone to discuss it.
Meng Yulou was born into a merchant family and has seen many business transactions since childhood. Some details can still give Wang Lin some new ideas.
In fact, in Meng Yulou's opinion, his family is already very rich.
It is not an exaggeration to say that Bohai Business, which was reorganized by the Wang Family Business, is making money every day.
In her heart, the wealth accumulated by the Wang family is enough for generations of descendants to worry about food and drink.
How could she know that what Wang Lin needed to support was a huge army. The court was unreliable and needed to pay for it herself.
She is just a very realistic little woman.
She has no ambitions and does not know how to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting. As long as she can make some money for her family and then give birth to children for her husband, she will be satisfied.
But although Wang Lin stayed in her room for so much time and refused to leave, she was happy, but she gradually became uneasy.
After all, there are so many sisters in the family, this will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among others.
Of course, at least so far, Wang Lin's back house is still in harmony.
The current women are very smart, knowing what to do and what not to do, and controlling the right measure.
In fact, compared with the powerful and powerful people of the Song Dynasty, Wang Lin's back house was nothing at all.
There are many beauties in the mansion, such as Pang Chunmei, Li Ping'er, and Yi Cui Siqin beside Han Yan, who are still virgins. The one who is taken over by Wang Lin in the mansion is still just Yan Xijiao.
...
After living in the mansion for a few days, Li Qingzhao took the initiative to leave Qingzhou and go to her hometown, Jinan Mansion.
Han Yan repeatedly advised her to stay and it was useless, and Li Qingzhao's attitude was very firm.
Han Yan knew that Li Qingzhao didn't want to stay in the Wang family, but she was worried about giving the people a real person.
Many people used to say that she had an affair with Wang Lin, but now she is divorced from Zhao Mingcheng. If she stayed in the Wang family for a long time without name, she would definitely be discussed behind the scenes.
Han Yan also found out that Li Qingzhao's hometown, Jinan Prefecture, no relatives can surrender to her. How can she live by going to Jinan alone?
Sooner or later it will be a dead end.
Han Yan felt that she couldn't bear to let her go.
So Han Yan asked Wang Lin to persuade him.
After hearing Han Yan's words, Wang Lin was actually a little surprised: "Is Mr. Yi'an in our mansion?"
Han Yan clumped her eyebrows: "Husband, don't you know? Zhao Mingcheng colluded with his concubine two days ago to drive Qingzhao's sister out of the house and wrote a book on divorce. When I saw that she was homeless, I brought her to the mansion for the time being.
live."
"Is Zhao Mingcheng so hateful?" Wang Lin said angrily: "Things that need to be packed! What county magistrate should he come to the mansion to burn fire!"
"Husband, let's not talk about Zhao Mingcheng for now. Sister Qingzhao can't stay in the mansion. She wants to go to Jinan Mansion alone, but she has no relatives to join her. How can she survive a weak woman?"
"Then stay at our house, or buy her a house from the city and live in another place."
Han Yan took Wang Lin's hand and said, "The reason why Sister Qingzhao wanted to leave was mainly because she was afraid of gossiping behind her back. As for buying a house and living in another place, it would be even more inappropriate. Wouldn't they say that she was the one you bought in.
?”
Wang Lin smiled bitterly: "It's not the same as the left, but it's hard to do it."
Han Yan slowly snuggled into Wang Lin's arms and said lightly: "Husband, Qingzhao's sister is a talented woman, and she is unprecedented and has a very pitiful situation. I think it's better to let her stay in the house and be more educated in the future.
Our children know the words and write poems and essays."
"I don't object."
Han Yan coughed lightly: "Husband, are you pretending to be stupid with me?"
...
The maid Lan'er stood in the room and looked at Li Qingzhao with a lonely face. She wanted to speak but stopped.
She wanted to persuade Li Qingzhao not to leave Qingzhou and not to refuse the care of the prince's mansion, but she couldn't open her mouth.
After all, Li Qingzhao had just divorced Zhao Mingcheng. If she had asked her to remarry Wang Lin as her concubine, how could she agree?
The door was knocked gently, and Lan'er pushed open the door and saw that it was Wang Lin, and was overjoyed.
He immediately fell to the ground: "Lan'er has seen the envoy. Madam, the envoy is here!"
Li Qingzhao has a thin jade face.
The past two days, the sad mood has become even more heartbroken and broken.
She stood up and said to Wang Linyifu: "Qingzhao has met the envoy."
"I've met Mr. Yi An."
Wang Lin smiled and glanced at Lan'er: "Miss Lan'er, I have a few words to talk to Mr. Yi'an alone, is it OK?"
"Yes! Yes!" Lan'er hurriedly left the door and closed the door tightly for the two of them.
Given her current situation, the lonely man and the widow are alone in the room, although Li Qingzhao's free and easyness is inevitably a little embarrassed.
She calmed down, looked at Wang Lin gently with her eyes, and said quietly: "I have something to say."
"I heard from my wife that the sir wanted to go to Jinan Mansion alone, and I feel it was inappropriate. My family, the Li family, have no relatives to join. You are a woman, how can you live after going to Jinan?"
Li Qingzhao was sad and smiled faintly: "Qingzhao has hands and feet, so she won't starve to death, right?"
"Since the sir can support himself, isn't it the same to stay in Qingzhou?"
"Qingzhou is sad, Qingzhao really doesn't want to stay for a long time."
"Besides, Qingzhao is now an abandoned wife. If she stayed in the envoy's house for a long time, it would actually affect the envoy's Qingyu, which is not what Qingzhao wanted."
"Why should you care about some rumors?"
Wang Lin smiled and said, "If the gentleman is really afraid of others' words, then how about I give him a title?"
Li Qingzhao's face turned red in an instant.
She said after a long time, "What should I say about Qingzhao like this? The envoy has a lot of family members in the envoy's house. Qingzhao... has a vulgar face and is really unbearable to the envoy's kindness. Please forgive Qingzhao for not obeying his orders!"
"If you think Qingzhao is now homeless and just abandoned, you will be frivolous, or want to use your power to force me to enter the door, Qingzhao would definitely rather die than follow."
Lan'er was eavesdropping outside the door. When Li Qingzhao answered, she was so anxious that she rubbed her hands. She thought to herself: Madam, since the envoy is interested in you, why should you push and stop it like this? What's wrong with following the envoy
OK?!
Wang Lin smiled bitterly, knowing that Li Qingzhao would have been wrong.
He quickly explained: "Although I admire Mr. I am not so rude, and I will do such shameless acts at this time."
"I want to do this. My Bohai County Duke's Mansion still lacks an etiquette and a female official in charge of historical books. If Mr. does not object, from today on, how about the doctor who started my residence in the ninth rank?
He also manages Qingzhou official school affairs, and in the future, my children will teach them to the teacher to discipline him."
Li Qingzhao was stunned at first, and then she was a little happy.
If you are a female official in charge of cultural teaching, it would be great.
She can stay at the Bohai County Duke's Mansion with justification, and can also use all her knowledge, so why not do it?
She immediately realized that she had a wrong idea in the previous episode, and remembered the words Wang Lin said, "Although I admire Mr. I very much." Her cheeks were glowing, as red as two ripe apples.
He lowered his head slightly.
Seeing that although she did not agree, Wang Lin knew that she was a little embarrassed, so he chuckled, turned around and left.
Wang Lin’s arrangement surprised Han Yan and was very happy.
As a fan of Li Qingzhao, in order to solve the problem of Li Qingzhao's status, Han Yan actually did not reject Wang Lin's use of Li Qingzhao as her concubine.
It is obviously more appropriate to be a female official.
Having preserved Li Qingzhao's reputation, no one could find any reason for the censors in the court to frame Wang Lin's private morals.
