Nodding her head, Wu Mei looked at Gu Qing and said, "Actually, His Royal Highness King Jin can also understand why he has to make him laugh so hard."

"It's better to leave room for some things." Gu Qing smelled the tea.

Fan Jian walked up and said, "Patriarch, a message came from His Royal Highness Wei Wang, and today the young master skipped class again."

"Did you get into trouble?" Gu Qing asked back.

"No." Fan Jian said.

"That's good." Gu Qing shook his cattail fan.

Fan Jian looked at Gu Qing's expression and said, "Not only did he not cause any trouble, but the young master also gave His Royal Highness King Wei and King Jin an idea."

"Well, very good." Gu Qing nodded and said, "Add a few more dishes for dinner."

Sometimes Gu Qing seems to be very strict with his eldest son, and sometimes he seems to be indifferent, but in private, Gu Qing still pays attention to his son's every move, Gu Qing asked Fan Jian in a low voice, "This kid didn't continue to draw the lottery?" ?"

"No, it seems to be a very good way to make a fortune, but I don't know why the young master stopped drawing lottery all of a sudden." Fan Jian said in a low voice.

Gu Qing was quite relieved. The lottery industry still didn't want to be popular in this Tang Dynasty. It was not that he didn't think that if he opened up a lottery industry, it would not be a good thing for the whole Tang Dynasty. He could do nothing. , as long as you set up a few awards, you can attract people to spend money. This is easier than opening factories and opening sea trade, and it is also easy to take advantage of people's inferiority.

This kind of selling and buying that uses people's psychological activities is not a good thing after all. If you do it yourself, you are confident that you will empty out the wealth of many people, and then you will make others poor. It is not suitable to use this kind of money at this time. method.

Gu Xiao was thinking about the next money-making business in the academy, and now he is still losing money, thinking about benefiting from the Maritime Trade Department, but Li Zhi seemed very vigilant.

"Gu Xiao, why don't you continue the lottery draw." Zhang Jiuling asked doubtfully.

"I can't draw anymore." Gu Xiaochang sighed, "I regret it, if I really want to rely on the lottery to make a fortune, I will be targeted by the court, not to mention whether my father will let me go."

"Why?" Zhang Jiuling asked suspiciously.

"I suddenly thought of getting something for nothing." Gu Xiao said, "If I set up a huge award, what kind of consequences will it cause? My mother often warns me to be a down-to-earth person. The relationship between my family and the royal family is also complicated. It’s not so much that I don’t want to do it, but that I dare not do it, and it’s indeed a huge profit to make money by taking advantage of people’s inferiority, but I can’t bear the consequences that follow.”

Looking at Gu Xiao, Zhang Jiuling was puzzled as to why Gu Xiao could analyze people's hearts so accurately, just like Gu Xiao said that this is to take advantage of people's inferiority, everyone wants to exchange a penny for wealth, this kind of enjoyment for nothing Feelings, few people would refuse, relatively Gu Xiao can see the pros and cons of this, and can stop in time.

After thinking about it, Zhang Jiuling cupped his hands towards Gu Xiao and said, "I've been taught."

"It's nothing." Gu Xiao said with a worried face, "Instead of drawing a lottery, why don't we fall into the grass and become bandits, this is a profitable business."

"..."

"Well, I'll go back to read and leave." Zhang Jiuling shook his head again and again.

"Brother Zhang! Think about it?"

Zhang Jiuling walked faster and faster.

After returning home, Gu Xiao began to think about how to get rich after eating. He couldn't sleep until late at night. He glanced at the other bed in the room where Li Xiang was sleeping soundly. Gu Xiao quietly got up and put on a sweater. He came to the study room, looked at the dazzling array of books on the bookshelf, and was rummaging through the books on the bookshelves to find some business clues.

Fan Jian came with an oil lamp, saw Gu Xiao rummaging in the study and said, "My lord hasn't slept yet."

"No." Gu Xiao said without looking back.

Fan Jian put the oil lamp on the desk and went to the kitchen to make some supper for Gu Xiao.

Most of the books here are in simplified Chinese characters, Gu Xiao can understand some of them, and saw this book on economics at a glance. I remembered that this book was translated by Uncle Jin Wang, and it turned out to be still here. It is said that this book It's a book about how to make money.

Gu Xiao opened the book and read it under the oil lamp. The words on it were all written by his mother. If you want to say that you know these words, but you don’t know them all. When you read all the way down, you see the word transportation.

"Logistics economy and geographical economy?" Gu Xiao read out unintentionally, looking down the title all the way.

Fan Jian put the freshly made noodles in front of Gu Qing's desk, and then left in small steps without disturbing Gu Xiao who was reading attentively, all the way to the laboratory on the second floor, Gu Qing did not sleep either.

"Patriarch." Fan Jian said in a low voice, "The young master hasn't slept yet."

"What does he do?" Gu Qing was experimenting with the rubber samples sent back by the Japanese ship.

"My lord is reading." Fan Jian replied in a low voice.

Gu Qing nodded and didn't ask any further questions. He burned the rubber with the flame on the oil lamp, put it on his nose and smelled it carefully, and it was a bit close to the smell of later generations. After several experiments on elasticity and toughness, it was a bit too soft, but it should be It is enough, thinking that after the sea ships opened up the west, maybe the oak trees can be transplanted here, but the oak trees are still too far away from the Central Plains.

After tidying up, Gu Qing withdrew his mind and said to Fan Jian who was standing aside, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest too."

"Yes." Fan Jian knew that Gu Qing didn't like being disturbed by others when he was in the laboratory. The laboratory was almost a forbidden area of ​​the Gu family, and Fan Jian could come to the laboratory for a few steps at most when Gu Qing was there. On weekdays, only his wife and Gu Qing can enter here.

Fan Jian closed the door of the laboratory. In the hearts of many servants of the Gu family, Gu Qing's ability to make such a fortune with bare hands must have something to do with this laboratory. The entire Gu family will guard the laboratory. This is the foundation of the Gu family's fortune.

Gu Qing put away the rubber and opened the secret room, carrying the oil lamp and walked all the way down. The stairs in the secret room are built in the wall, and you can walk down the narrow stairs to the basement floor of Gu’s house. Gu Qing lit a lamp here. With just one candle, the whole secret room began to brighten. Looking at everything here, I came to a file money hanging on the wall, and put a tick behind the names of Yang Guozhong and Zhang Jiuling.

I have always been demonstrating an idea, assuming that I am a butterfly, how much change this butterfly will bring to this era.

Chapter One Thousand and Fourteen

Only Gu Qing knows where his hometown is, and sometimes he fantasizes that he can return to his hometown, but the facts of so many years tell him that reality is irreversible, and sometimes he thinks that he may already belong to this era Now, my own home, my everything is here.

When my first footsteps fell in this era, when I met Sun Simiao here, I might not be able to go back. Thinking, space, wormholes, I thought about many concepts in the early years, and tried to explain them. Why did I come here, even if combined with what I have learned in half my life, this kind of puzzle can't be solved by myself or with my whole life.

Instead of torturing yourself, it is better to experience this era with your heart, to feel the ups and downs of this era. After reading the many names on this file, Gu Qing took it down and burned it to ashes with a candle after a long time.

In an ancient temple outside Chang'an City, this is the temple where Gu Qing lived for a while, and this is the Daning Temple. Tang Xuanzang stayed awake looking at the sky full of stars. He asked an old monk beside him and said, "Is there any place in the world?" Prophet?"

"Why did you say that?" The old abbot of Daning Temple closed his eyes.

"The poor monk has traveled all over the west, but he has never seen the belief in his heart. The journey was very difficult, and the poor monk doubted what he has always insisted on more than once." Tang Xuanzang said in a low voice, "Sometimes I think about what I am What is it that you have been pious to the Buddha for most of your life?"

The old abbot smiled and did not speak.

Tang Xuanzang still murmured, "Until I met Gu Qing, a man who seemed to kill people without blinking an eye, sometimes I thought Gu Qing was a devil. I thought I was not afraid of devils, but when I faced Gu Qing, I was afraid."

"What are you afraid of?" the old abbot continued to ask.

"No matter how scared I am..." Tang Xuanzang was confused for a long time, "I don't know what I'm afraid of."

The old abbot didn't answer the question.

Tang Xuanzang said again, "I feel that Gu Qing seems to be out of tune with this world. He uses his own way of life to change the way of life of many people in the Tang Dynasty. Of course, there are strange people in this world. I can only use strange people and strange people to explain Gu Qing's life." Ability, but once or twice is enough, Gu Qing seems to be ahead of each step, he seems to have known that Li Chengqian should be enthroned, and the Tang royal family cannot follow Li Shimin's back road, he seems to have known Songzan for a long time Ganbu is an ambitious person, everything is everything Gu Qing seems to know everything

"The poor monk was shaken. The poor monk didn't know whether he should continue to stick to the past. I think Gu Qing is a devil, but everything that Gu Qing brought to the Tang Dynasty is good. Sometimes I feel that Gu Qing is compassionate. Even many Tang people have a sympathetic heart, but outside the customs, he is a murderous monster. Li Shimin said when Li Shimin had a secret conversation with the poor monk, Gu Qing looked at him as if he was looking at a poor person. "

"Until now, the poor monk has seen all the mountains and rivers, but he can't see through Gu Qing, only the future." Tang Xuanzang said, "Old abbot, is Gu Qing the poor monk's demon?"

The old abbot didn't respond.

Tang Xuanzang looked sideways at the old abbot beside him, with a smile on his face, his clothes were blown by the breeze, but he remained motionless.

"Old abbot?" Tang Xuanzang called again.
