Jia Hu, a fan of wealth in the Red Chamber

On this day, Jia Hu received news that the fleet led by Xu Hu had returned, and this time, of course, they returned with a full load.

Jia Hu was overjoyed, pulled Wei Jiang, and went straight to Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs, where Jia Hu specially bought for Xu Hu and his group to organize goods and rest, not too far from the capital.

Before going out, Qingyue was summoned, "Go and send a message to His Majesty, just say that Xu Hu and the others are here, and Boying and I will go to pick up the good things first, so we won't wait for him, hahahaha."

Qingyue looked helpless.

Wei Jiang shook his head, "You, why bother to be angry with him, be careful to make him angry and throw us a lot of political affairs."

Jia Hu raised his chin, "He dares! Believe it or not, I'll make him bankrupt in minutes!"

Wei Jiang: ...

This threat really hit Shen Tuqian's weakness, he was used to having money in his hand and speaking hard, so he really wouldn't be happy to let him be under the control of his courtiers again.

"Let's go, let's pick some good ones first." He said, and got into the car first.

Wei Jiang shook his head, there was really nothing he could do about it.

"My lord, my lord." Xu Hu immediately greeted Zhuangtou when he heard Wei Jiang and Jia Hu coming.

Looking at the flattened grain drying field full of various large and small boxes and all kinds of bags, Jia Hu's mood was very bright. These are all money.

He patted Xu Hu on the shoulder, and said with satisfaction, "Not bad, you guys have worked hard, everyone work harder, and when the work is over, everyone go to Qingfeng to receive the reward!"

A group of dark sailors who were "built" by the sea breeze and sunshine applauded loudly.It is said that the boss is stingy and loves money, but in the eyes of these men, their boss, when they should be generous, is extremely generous.

"Dahu, pick out a few good things from the things you brought this time. Lian'er will be married at the end of the year. Give him some good things as a betrothal gift." This is why Jia Hu will come here in person. The reason for the trip, what diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and more to make some head jewelry, but it is very good.

Not only would it be useful for Jia Lian to get married, but also Daiyu, Jia Yue, even Jia Cong, Lin Yu, Wei Yan, and Wei An could prepare more for them, so as to save them from having to travel around when they needed it in the future. looking for.

As Jia Hu's younger brothers and sisters, how could they not have some good things?

"Second Master Lian is going to get married? That's good. It just so happens that we got some big corals in that place called Australia this time, which are half the height of a person. When we get them back, it's good for decorations or jewelry." They are extremely cheap. Besides, we found the kind of kangaroos that the uncle mentioned there, and we got two pairs back, and it would be interesting to take out a pair to add."

As he said that, he found out the few intact large corals they got from a pile of goods.

Looking at the red coral, which is nearly half a person tall, Jia Hu's eyes shined brightly, "This whole plant doesn't need to be made into jewelry. I think I can find an old craftsman and ask him to make this coral into a bonsai. Adding colorful pearls on it, it must be very interesting."

As soon as these words came out, Wei Jiang stopped, held his forehead, and said helplessly, "Then you have to ask them to do more, otherwise, you will not be enough."

Jia Hu was stunned for a moment, tears streaming down his face in an instant, he had forgotten that there are so many elders in the family, if one is given away, the others cannot be left behind.Don't give it away if you want to, if one of them sees it, the crime will be even greater, and you can't afford to hurt it.

Seeing Jia Hu drooping his head, Wei Jiang seemed to see someone's invisible tail also drooping down, mourning the babies who flew away before they got their hands.

Wei Jiang had no intention of comforting him at all, he went to the pile of boxes and picked out the things he liked, tsk tsk, the quality of the things that Xu Hu and the others got this time is really good, there are so many good things.

It's no wonder that now the annual maritime trade accounts for nearly [-]% of Yuanfeng Commercial Bank's income, and there are more and more people coveting their maritime commercial route. If the three of them were not of high enough status, this fruit would soon It was taken away.

Some people also want to build their kind of sea-going ships, but unfortunately, the ship-building technology has always been in the hands of a few people, and those people's imitations have never been successful.

It is precisely because of this that every time they go to sea, many merchants try their best to get on their merchant ships and go to sea to do business. Although they have to pay some commissions to Yuanfeng Commercial Bank, they earn more money.

Nowadays, the fleet of Yuanfeng Commercial Bank going to sea is getting bigger and bigger.

After mourning for a while, Jia Hu had to accept the reality. Fortunately, the things were given to the elders. When the elders received the things, they would always return the gifts, and the juniors like them would not suffer.Thinking about it this way, I finally feel better.

"A lot of merchant ships went out with the fleet this time, right? Have they all returned?"

Xu Hu nodded, "This time our merchant ships are all mechanical ships equipped with internal combustion engines. They are fast and big. Before going to sea, we made an agreement with those people. If you want to go with the ship, you must buy our ship. The sea-going boats built in the factory will do. After seeing our boats, those people bought one to five boats without a second thought, and they all kept up with them in terms of speed. It’s no longer the case of disobedience to arrangements and being buried at the bottom of the sea like it did a few years ago, and it’s quite refreshing to pay for the guard.”

"That's not bad." Seeing the angry look on Xu Hu's face, he said, "This is something that can't be helped, the world is so big, it's impossible for one family to take all the good things, and it's wrong to eat alone. "

Jia Hu knew very well that no matter how much money a single person earns, what is the use?A lot of money is just a number.Fortunately, in this era, money is gold and silver, which can be seen and touched. In later generations, it is just a string of numbers printed on the bank card.

Xu Hu listened to it. To him, their Uncle Hu is an immortal in the sky. Everything he said and did was correct.

He continued: "This time we have arrived in Arabia, and several adults have already found out that there is indeed the kind of oil you mentioned under that land, and there are quite a lot of reserves."

Jia Hu was not surprised by this. The Middle East accounted for nearly half of the oil in later generations.Now that he has come, he has occupied the time, the people and the harmony. Now, he wants to create the condition of the location. Well, it's time to blow the wind in today's ears.

Xu Hu was very curious, "Master, can that kind of oil really replace coal and become the fuel for internal combustion engines?"

"Of course, it's just that after the thing is mined, it needs to be processed. Compared with coal, it is much stronger." Jia Hu answered him as a matter of course.

"But... that Arabia is too far away from us in Daqi, and the people there, what should I say? I always feel uneasy." These two problems are serious.

Jia Hu smiled mysteriously, but said nothing, Shanren had his own plan.

Wei Jiang picked out a cart full of treasures he liked, and was about to take them back to the capital for the seniority of the parents.This time going to sea, many officials and family members in the capital have contributed money to buy shares, which can be regarded as a benefit for all officials today.

Yun Shu was retained. As the chief financial officer of Yuanfeng Commercial Bank, he was the busiest at this time.

When the two returned to the mansion, Qingyue's expression came together subtly.

Jia Hu rolled his eyelids and wondered, "What's the matter? You have such an interesting expression, you really look like a cat that stole something."

Qingyue was speechless, his uncle was becoming more and more speechless.

He decided to ignore it, "A few gossips were passed on by the kid in the ethnology school, which almost made the master angry. The little guy thought the words were quite interesting."

"Oh? What are you talking about? Tell me." Jia Hu's heart skipped a beat.

"He said, daughters are made of water, and men are made of mud. When I see a daughter, I feel refreshed, but when I see a man, I feel foul and smelly."

"Puff...cough cough cough..." Wei Jiang was drinking tea, and when he heard this, he spit out immediately.

Jia Hu was very speechless. After so many years, he thought Jia Baoyu would never say this famous quote again, so he waited here.

"Did the master not drive him out?"

"Hurry up, why didn't you hurry up? Master Liu has a square temper, and he couldn't hear such words the most, so he immediately kicked the second master Bao out of the school. After the second master heard about it, he picked up the board in anger, and just beat him up. It is said that he will be a drunken person in the future, so it is better to beat him to death now, the second master Bao was beaten to death, and the old lady fainted from distress." Qingyue said.

Jia Hu shook his head, his second uncle, besides beating his son to save face, what else would he do?Back then, his meal directly ruined Jia Zhu, but now, he still wants to ruin Jia Baoyu with the same plan. Really, it makes people speechless.

Wei Jiang managed to clean up the tea that he had spewed out, and pushed the teacup a little further away, fearing that he would hear something resentful, "Didn't you say that Jia Baoyu was going to take part in the children's test? What's the matter?" Should I hit him?"

"It's not the first time he's done something like this. Didn't Xiuwen (Jia Zhu's word) get hurt back then? Otherwise, with his ability, it's not difficult to be a Jinshi." Jia Hu looked at it very much. If you don't go to Jia Zheng, you are incompetent, but you vent your anger on children, which is shameful.

Nodding lightly with her fingers on her thigh, Jia Hu fell into her own thoughts, some things, maybe it's time to proceed.

"I'll go to the study to write something first." After saying that, she got up and left in a hurry.

Wei Jiang and others are used to it. Jia Hu often thinks of something suddenly, and then writes down his thoughts and plans in the study. Every time he retreats to write something, a new trend will appear in the whole Daqi. He is the only one who can do this with his own strength.

After Jia Hu wrote this, he stayed in the study for seven days, but Wei Jiang was very anxious. This was the first time he had locked himself in the study for such a long time.

When he came out again, he was holding a stack of thick paper full of petty small letters. Wei Jiang took a look and saw "Several Plans for School Education and Compulsory Education" written on it. At the same time, there was another A set of elementary school textbooks written by Jia Hu himself for grades one to six.

Wei Jiang's head was a little big. He carefully flipped through the "Proposal Book". He was already very familiar with this kind of "Proposal Book". After all, Jia Hu wrote so many copies every year.

However, he was still very surprised by this "Education Plan".

I looked through the textbook again. There are two kinds of textbooks, one is Chinese, and the other is arithmetic. Because it is a primary school textbook, it is very easy to understand, but it is suitable for children around ten years old to learn.

"Elementary school textbooks? What about middle school and university?" Prince Wei, who had read the "plan", naturally knew that Jia Hu had divided the school into several parts, so he asked this question.

Putting down the tea bowl, Jia Hu sighed, "After all, this is just the beginning. One bite won't make you fat. Naturally, the school will start from the first grade of primary school, step by step."

Wei Jiang raised his eyebrows. It was true. Although it was a bit slow to do so, it was the safest way. "Your plan is not for cultivating talents for the imperial examination, is it?"

"That's right." Jia Hu nodded, looking into Wei Jiang's eyes, and said, "The imperial examination is held every three years, and the number of people who can take part in each examination is only [-]. The entire population of Daqi is so large. My goal of studying is fixed on the imperial examination. Everyone wants to be an official. Who will do the other things? It is better to systematically teach these people some means of making a living. At that time, everyone will get what they want and always get the credit One thing."

Jia Hu's "Plan" draws on the education system of later generations, ranging from elementary school to middle school to university. The basics of Chinese and arithmetic in elementary school are laid, and the language, mathematics, history, and biology of middle school are consolidated. It is systematic vocational education.

Most importantly, Jia Hu proposed to set up a girls' school!In this era, this concept is really shocking. Once this "plan" is released, I am afraid that those great Confucians will not agree.

Regarding this point, Jia Hu himself has no choice. After all, in this era, women can hold up half the sky. No matter how much he should learn, he dare not.

The so-called shooting the first bird, he didn't want to be the one who was beaten.

"Everything else is fine, except for the vocational education you mentioned, craftsmen, doctors, translators, business subjects, sailors... It's easy to say for translators, craftsmen and doctors, I'm afraid it's not that simple? These people pay attention to passing on from father to son , who is willing to teach others how to eat?" Wei Jiang pointed out a fact.

Jia Hu was also scratching his head on this question, "This is indeed a big problem. However, apart from these, there are other careers to choose from. I just hope that some insightful people can see the benefits of school education and change themselves. Think about it. And my "plan" is just a rough plan, and I need to discuss it with several companies."

Wei Jiang nodded, and read it carefully again. This time it took a little longer, and he carefully thought about the pros and cons. He had to admit that what Jia Hu said was true.

"School education... has a promising future. If so, I will also let the children of the Wei family go to study with you."

Jia Hu leaned in front of him and touched Wei Jiang's face with his nose. It was a very happy thing to have the support of his lover.
