Fang Yuan also likes the juggling technique very much, and thinks it is very powerful.

Princess Xiangcheng, who was well-clothed and well-fed since she was a child, rarely saw this kind of miraculous technique, and she only thought it was miraculous.

"That's it, I understand."

Compared to Princess Xiangcheng's excitement, Du Miaoyan was much calmer, even a little disappointed.

She still wanted to learn internal energy from Fang Yuan, but now it seems that there is no such opportunity, internal energy does not exist at all.

She had actually seen this kind of phenomenon before, but she didn't pay attention to it, now she saw Fang Yuan's demonstration and immediately understood it.

"It's just a trick."

"Miss Li, didn't you go back to Chang'an City with your father?"

Fang Yuan laughed.

Being so supported by Princess Xiangcheng made him a little elated.

"Hee hee, I still want to play and go back."

Princess Xiangcheng said with a smile.

It's not good to be in the palace, there are many rules, and you must pay attention to your behavior.

If something is not done right, there will be an emcee nagging.

As the eldest daughter, although she is not a direct descendant, she must lead by example.

So when she was in the palace, Princess Xiangcheng felt that she was not herself.

Outsiders commented on her being elegant, dignified and virtuous, and so on, all of which were pretended by her.

Therefore, Princess Xiangcheng didn't want to go back so quickly, and wanted to wait until the spring of next year before going back.

After returning home, they will get married, and in the future, they will live in peace and harmony, and they will no longer expect to go out to play.

"You should have fun while you are young, free, and have not yet married and had children."

"When you get married and have children, you will not only be alone in your life, but you will also have to shoulder the corresponding family responsibilities, and you can no longer play casually."

Fang Yuan suddenly felt emotional.

Before time travel, Fang Yuan was an ordinary office worker.

I don't have much social life, I just want to make money, I want to buy a car and a house to save gifts.

So life is full of anxiety, and I feel guilty when I have a little leisure time. I just want to make money and don't want to enjoy life.

The body straddled behind, Fang Yuan realized when he was lying on the hospital bed that life is not just about making money non-stop.

There are also eating, drinking, having fun, enjoying freedom, and being happy, so it is not in vain to come to the world.

"Fang Inspector actually has this understanding?!"

Princess Xiangcheng said in surprise.

She simply wanted to have fun and play like crazy before marriage.

But after listening to Fang Yuan's words, he felt very close to what he thought.

Du Miaoyan also looked at Fang Yuan in surprise, she didn't expect Fang Yuan to have such an idea.

She didn't want to get married before, and sent back all the people who came to propose marriage, not only because Du Ruhui was in poor health and wanted to spend more time with him, but also because she felt that she would no longer be herself after getting married.

She has seen many women of the same age. After marrying into a wife, she is no longer the same as before. She focuses on her husband's family and looks at her husband's face in everything. She even takes pride in having children, and even more proud of having a son.

But she doesn't want to.

Now listening to what Fang Yuan said, she seems to understand why she has never wanted to get married.

Because what I want is freedom!

"Hahaha, I'm expressing my feelings."

Fang Yuan laughed.

Naturally, I didn't expect that my casual words would cause the two girls to think so much.

At this time, it was already noon, Fang Yuan hadn't had lunch yet, he was hungry, so he didn't continue chatting with the two of them.

Chapter 91 Robbing My Money Is Killing My Parents

In the afternoon, Zhang San came back.

After investigation, it was found that there were no coal mines in the two mountains Xue Jiaoyan mentioned.

At the same time, he has arranged manpower and will officially start mining tomorrow.

So far, another plan of Fang Yuan has been implemented, coal will soon replace charcoal.

A few days later, in mid-to-late October, the weather turned even colder.

There is no snow in Liaozhou, but there is drizzle, which makes people feel cold.

At this time, some people began to sell charcoal in the market, and the charcoal seller dragged the charcoal on the road and shouted.

In the city of Liaozhou, cement roads from the south to the west of the city, from the south to the east of the city, and from the south to the north of the city have been completed one after another.

The cement road leading from Liaoshan County to Liaozhou City is also under construction, and [-]% of the planned roads have been officially completed.

It is worth mentioning that the planned highways are only Liaozhou City and the road leading to Liaozhou City, and the other three counties are not in the planning.

On this day, the officials from the Ministry of Industry that Li Shimin mentioned before he left finally arrived. Cui Zhengchu, a doctor from the Water Department of the Ministry of Industry, brought four officials with him.

"Meet Mr. Cui!"

Fang Yuan brought the governor's mansion to meet him.

In terms of official position, Fang Yuan is half a level younger than him, so he has to receive him from top to bottom.

"I've seen Governor Fang."

Cui Zhengchu and others also returned the gift to Fang Yuan.

Although he is half a level higher than Fang Yuan, but Fang Yuan is the local governor and has more power than him.

"Please come in."

Fang Yuan said politely.

Enter the governor's mansion with Cui Zhengchu and others.

"Fang Cishi is really a hero out of a boy."

"When I was your age, I was just a master."

Cui Zhengchu said as he walked.

For Fang Yuan who occupies a high position at such a young age, except for members of the royal family, the rest are the sons of those big families.

"Master Cui praised me a lot, please sit down and have some tea."

Fang Yuan smiled.

At the same time, he looked up at Cui Zhengchu in his heart.

It's not because the other party praises himself, but what he means.

Cui Zhengchu now looks only 37 or 40 years old, less than [-] years old.

The main thing he said was a position from the ninth rank, compared with the current position from the fifth rank, there was a huge gap between them.

It took more than ten years to go from the ninth rank to the fifth rank, crossing more than ten small steps, and the promotion speed is comparable to riding a rocket.

Everyone sat down around the fire, and their bodies became much warmer.

The anthracite has not been made yet, Fang Yuan still uses the fire to keep warm.

Occasionally, he would choke to tears because of the heavy smoke, or make the entire Governor's Mansion full of smoke.

"Is this tea from the Royal Trading Company?"

A young official, Xiao Hongcai asked in surprise.

"Yes."

Fang Yuan nodded.

Every time Du Miaoyan stirs up new tea, she will send it to Fang Yuan first.

A few days passed, Fang Yuan could not finish the tea here, and he no longer used his side to prepare it.

“Good tea!”

"Better than the ones I bought!"

Xiao Hongcai sighed.

Cui Zhengchu and the others also sipped tea and nodded.

Now the Royal Commercial Bank's tea has been officially launched, and it is already sold in Chang'an City.

But the supply is still very small, and the supply exceeds the demand, and only some dignitaries can buy it.

And the quality is not as good as what Du Miaoyan personally delivered to Fang Yuan, it is not of the same level.

In Du Miaoyan's business plan, she divided tea into three grades: special grade, high grade, middle grade, and no low grade.

High-end and intermediate-grade tea are sold at two prices. If you want to drink good tea, you can sell it at a high price, and if you don’t have money or don’t mind, you can buy intermediate-grade tea.

Special grade is not for sale, and the quantity is very small, it is only provided to the royal family, Du Ruhui, Fang Yuan and others.

"I still have a small amount of premium tea in my house."

"Before you leave, I asked the people in the house to bring it to you."

Fang Yuan smiled lightly.

Get started on the fine tradition of gift giving.

This is what Zhao Caiying taught Fang Yuan when he was the director of Wuling County.

Zhao Caiying taught Fang Yuan at that time: In the officialdom, one must learn to give gifts, it doesn't matter how expensive they are, the most important thing is to give them.

Don't underestimate a pot of tea, sometimes you can exchange for a big news, so as to avoid a catastrophe and so on.

"Extra?!"

"Well, what's the point of this?"

Xiao Hongcai said in surprise.

He only heard of middle-grade tea and high-grade tea.

Now that Fang Yuan heard the premium tea, he immediately wanted it.

But he quickly came to his senses and looked at Cui Zhengchu, not daring to take it easily.

High-grade tea is not cheap anymore, so special-grade tea must be more expensive, which may involve bribery.

"Tea can refresh the mind and strengthen the heart. It is an important aid for us to repair the Yellow River dams."

"Prefect Fang also wants to do his part to restore the Yellow River. How can we refuse? Thank you Prefect Fang."

Cui Zhengchu said seriously.

Thanks to Fang Yuan.
