Chapter 197 Since you have brought it to our door, how can we not accept it?
Kangxi pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth: "Why are you interested in this again?"
Yinzhen scratched his head in embarrassment: "To be honest with you, Khan, I originally wanted to confront those ignorant Mongolian princes. But after I finished speaking, I realized that according to the perspective of being prepared for danger in times of peace, our Qing Dynasty is indeed under attack from all sides!"
"I am not talented enough to share your worries like you brothers. I have no choice but to find a good teacher and learn a little from him."
"and……"
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Kangxi hurriedly asked: "And what?"
"Uh, nothing, my son just has some concerns." Yinzhen stretched out his right thumb and index finger, and made a gap that couldn't be smaller: "Well, you know, Lord Dai is rigid and stubborn, and he is not good at interpersonal relationships. So when he was framed a few years ago, no one helped him..."
There was a lot of nonsense, the main idea was that he was afraid that Dai Zi would be harmed again. If he and Dai Zi became master and apprentice, he would go to the Ministry of War from time to time...
"Hehe, I can't say anything else, but at least no one will commit crimes against the wind and harm our firearms research experts."
[At the same time, I know more, and it’s good to have some inspiration~]
[The key point is the sudden inspiration.]
Yinxuan's eyes were wide with anticipation, and he pulled Kangxi's dragon robe sleeve with a smile: "My son only has this little hobby, Khan Father, please approve it! Good Khan Father, you are the most benevolent monarch and loving father in history who loves your son the most."
"Row!"
Kangxi agreed immediately without hesitation.
cough cough.
He was praised in public but had his inner scars exposed so many times that he felt a little sick.
Afraid of being slow, the brat began to mutter in his mind again about the series of foolish things he did in his later years, when he aimed to become the most benevolent emperor in history, but ended up being kidnapped by his reputation.
Nani?
Yinzhen was stunned: He had prepared a series of ways to act like a spoiled child, but before he even started, his father Kangxi announced that he had compromised?
The prince saw his doubt and smiled: "Eighteenth brother is doing so much for the country and the people, Khan Ama is so happy that he can't wait to interfere."
That's gunpowder!
Even you have to say that it is epoch-making and will change the world's war landscape.
This is something that both my father and I dream of.
It's because you are so secretive, and your fourth sister's questioning made Khan Ama worried, and he was afraid to keep his face, so he didn't allow anyone to try to get you to say anything in any way.
Now that you've brought it to our doorstep, how can we not accept it?
Yinxuan didn't know the twists and turns here, and he smiled and bowed to the prince: "Thank you, Prince, for your kind words."
The prince touched the top of his head lovingly and said, "We are brothers, Eighteenth Brother, there is no need to be so polite."
Yin Xuan reiterated with a serious face: "I'm not being polite. The second brother of the crown prince uses folk slang to say that you don't need an awl to sew the soles of shoes - it's really good."
The prince felt a little uneasy when he heard the compliment, so he quickly changed the subject: "Brother, we are friends, and I am respectful. Since I am so much older than you, isn't it my duty to take care of you?"
"It is my Eighteenth Brother who is clever and proposed the method of competition. He made my Second Brother and Khan Ama realize the necessity of developing firearms and also shut up those conservative Mongolian princes. He has made great contributions to the country and no reward is too high."
Kangxi nodded and said "indeed".
Then the father and son spent a long time picking and choosing among the tributes from the Mongolian princes and nobles, and Yinxuan returned with a full load again.
On the way, when he looked at the Mongolian princes who were trying to get close to him, he smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I don't know much, so I asked people to sort out your wishes and hand them over directly to Khan Ama."
"After he discusses this with the fourth sister, there should be a clear answer. There is no need to worry, and no need to thank me!"
After being left out for a long time, the Mongolian princes finally got some reliable information:...
So the fundamental reason why they were taken for a walk for so long was to vent the anger of the Eighteenth Prince and establish his authority?
The goal was achieved, Yinxuan was so happy that he didn't care how dejected they were.
He only ordered Xiao Luzi to pack up his things quickly and be careful when returning.
Xiao Luzi smiled and said, "Master, I have told you many times. How dare I forget? I have already collected all the gifts and rewards you have received and have recorded them in a book."
There is nothing wrong with it, except that there are too many things.
There were twelve more horse-drawn carriages, which was more than double the number when they came.
There was no other way. The Thirteenth Prince, in the name of the Emperor, had visited many princesses and daughters of the royal family. He supported them in various ways and naturally received countless thanks. The honest Thirteenth Prince always said on the spot that it was all thanks to the Crown Prince and the Eighteenth Brother.
Especially my eighteenth brother.
Otherwise, he would not have made this trip, at least it would not have been so grand and would not have benefited almost all the princesses and daughters of the clan.
Out of gratitude, everyone inevitably prepared generous gifts, and Yinxuan, who was thanked profusely, made a small fortune.
It took up most of the twelve carriages.
The rest were just the princesses of the time repaying their younger brother for his kindness.
It is also sad to say.
When the Royal Thermos Bottle Factory was first built, no one took it seriously. They were just grateful to Xiao Shiba for being so thoughtful and not forgetting their married sisters.
Who would have thought that after the Qing newspaper, microscope and other propaganda, people would be as afraid of water as a tiger. No matter how much they tightened their belts, they had to buy a thermos?
Thermos bottles of various colors, of high, medium and low end, have entered the wedding market just like mirrors and combs.
It has become a must-have item for betrothal gifts or dowries.
The market is vast, and because of the technology and the identity of the owner, it has never been copied. It has become a unique business, and the speed of making money is terrifying.
Of course, the dividends distributed to the princes and princesses are gradually becoming considerable.
After receiving the first dividend of 500 taels per person, the princesses all cried.
According to the Qing Dynasty rules, the Gulun princesses born to the empress were only given 400 taels of silver and 400 hu of rice per year. The Gulun princesses who were demoted to foreign vassal states were only given 1,000 taels of silver and 30 rolls of silk per year.
Princess Heshuo only had a pitiful three hundred taels.
After pacifying Mongolia, the amount increased to four hundred taels of silver and fifteen rolls of silk per year.
The one cent dividend that Yinxuan received during the past six months was used to distribute the annual salaries of most of the princesses except Princess Kejing.
It really provided timely assistance to the poor princess and was icing on the cake for the already wealthy princess.
How could the princesses not feel warm in their hearts?
And their good brother said: As long as the factory doesn't go bankrupt and they are alive, the dividends will always be there.
It's not a one-time deal, but the younger brothers' continuous help and care for their older sisters.
Besides being a caring sister, shouldn’t she also prepare some good things for her brother?
Unable to refuse such kind invitation, Yinxuan had no choice but to accept them all.
Then his luggage grew bigger and bigger, and he became more and more helpless. When he told other brothers about it, they just laughed at him for not knowing how lucky he was and told him to stop showing off.
Yinxuan had no choice but to write this sweet little burden on a piece of paper and send it to his fourth brother.
