Chapter 65
Those people noticed the prince's cold gaze and quickly turned around to pretend they didn't see anything, but Huo Lingzhi told them to invite Dr. Zhen over.
Huo Lingzhi still felt that it was too slow for him to carry Luo Zining, and the bumps on the road would make the toxin spread quickly, so it was better to go back to the yard and wait for the doctor to come.
In order to better treat Huo Lingzhi, the courtyard assigned to Dr. Zhen was very close to Huo Lingzhi's main courtyard.
Dr. Zhen arrived soon, and he hurriedly checked Luo Zining's pulse, "The princess has been overworked recently, drink some calming tea and rest more."
When Dr. Zhen saw Huo Lingzhi being so nervous and kept asking him, it reminded him of some rumors he had heard at the mansion recently.
The prince almost crazily wanted to get his male concubine pregnant, and the male concubine also prayed to God and worshiped Buddha almost crazily every day, hoping to conceive a child.
At the beginning, he thought it was just people spreading the rumors without thinking, but now seeing the prince's appearance, and the princess's blushing and embarrassing face, his jaw almost dropped from shock. Could it be that the rumors are true?
Dr. Zhen said to Huo Lingzhi with a tangled face and tactfully: "My lord, whether or not you have children is determined by the heavens, and you can't force it, let alone a man, who can't conceive even more.It's a waste of effort."
Luo Zining: "???!!!"
Huo Lingzhi: "..."
The atmosphere between the three of them became weird and awkward, but at this time, Huo Lingzhi already knew that Luo Zining was really teasing him, and it really wasn't poison.
He turned his head to look at Luo Zining, Luo Zining wanted to teach Huo Lingzhi a lesson, so that he would not be so surprised to doubt him in the future, who knew that the car overturned.
He hurriedly got up to see Dr. Zhen off: "You go back first, he always likes to think wildly, don't mind, don't mind."
After sending the person away, he turned his head and saw Huo Lingzhi looking at him, which made Luo Zining shiver uncomfortably.
"My king likes to think wildly? I want you to have a baby?" Huo Lingzhi asked him to come over, "But I haven't even tried, how do I know you won't be able to conceive?"
"Why do you always scare me with such a tone?" Luo Zining walked over and sat on the barbecue grill: "Do you still think about it? But I'm going to find my lover."
"Isn't there no lover?" Huo Lingzhi was in a good mood now.
"I didn't have it before, but I can find one in the future. There are so many strong young men of seventeen or eighteen years old, can't I just find someone to vent my anger?"Originally, he had the upper hand, and he couldn't let Huo Lingzhi overwhelm him again.
"Just looking for young men? Do you like men that much?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
Luo Zining was dumbfounded by this question, yes, why did he only want to find a young man?Why not find a little girl?Why is there no option for a little girl in his options?
Is he really gay?
impossible?Why hasn't he been tempted by any man before?But thinking about it carefully, he has never been tempted by any little girl.
So what has he been doing for the past twenty years?Why haven't you talked about love, and haven't had a crush on it?
He carefully recalled his life before the time travel. His body functions are normal, but every time he solves it by himself, who is he hallucinating?
It seems that there has never been a specific person, but after careful consideration, he often likes to solve things by himself in front of the mirror. He doesn't like others, but he actually likes himself?Is he so narcissistic?
Luo Zining instantly felt like he was a pervert...
But apart from these, when his peers are busy falling in love or secretly in love, he is playing games, reading novels, researching, eating, drinking and having fun, and gathering together with a group of friends to play foolishly, and he has no time at all.for love...
Now when Huo Lingzhi asked him that he only thought about boys and not girls, he was stunned, and he began to reflect, maybe he was really gay.
He went to see Huo Lingzhi again, but did he like Huo Lingzhi?I don't like it that much either... At least never thought of falling in love with Huo Lingzhi or doing very intimate things, but when Huo Lingzhi kissed him, felt very happy.
But do straight guys feel good when they are kissed by another guy?wrong!Straight men will never be kissed by another man!Straight men don't allow this to happen!Even if it happened, he would just feel sick to his stomach.
"What are you doing in a daze? If you don't warm up, the fire will go out." Huo Lingzhi reminded him.
"Why don't I come? You sit over there and eat." Seeing that he didn't respond, Huo Lingzhi tugged on his sleeve and told him to wait over there.
Luo Zining came back to his senses, "Don't worry about it, I said I'll bake it myself, so don't bring up all the topics just now."
"Okay." Huo Lingzhi didn't want to mention that either, he was too destructive and angry, and he still wanted to have a good relationship with his little princess, and he didn't want irrelevant people to disturb them.
But he thought that the next topic between the two of them was tenderness, but Luo Zining talked to him about business matters.
"The batch of ginseng wine and tiger bone wine that Boss Cheng made before sold well," Luo Zining whispered to him, "Because I told Boss Cheng to spread the word about this wine.For aphrodisiac, more and more people are buying it, so the supply exceeds the demand, so I plan to open a pharmaceutical factory.β
Huo Lingzhi: "...is it really aphrodisiac?"
Luo Zining glanced at Huo Lingzhi, "Do you still need to be strong? You are already very strong."
When Luo Zining was hugged by him before, he was touched at a close distance, which frightened him. It is estimated that he would not be able to reach twenty centimeters, so there is really no need to strengthen his yang.
"That's a gimmick, if you don't care about it, you don't know." Luo Zining said with a smile: "Anyway, if you add aphrodisiac to it, it will definitely sell like crazy. This is called a marketing strategy, you don't understand."
Huo Lingzhi shook his head helplessly, "It seems that you have suffered from this before?"
"I don't, don't talk nonsense!" Luo Zining looked at the roasted leeks in his hand as he spoke, and hurriedly explained: "I love leeks, not for strengthening yang, but because leeks are delicious."
Huo Lingzhi smiled and said nothing, "I understand, but you don't need this king anymore."
"I don't need anything! That's physical work. My lord, you're not strong enough, why don't you let me do it." Luo Zining thought for a while, and if he let himself be the attacker, it doesn't seem to be impossible. Huo Lingzhi has such a good figure...β¦
"When you become the prince and I become the princess, you can do the physical work again." Huo Lingzhi refused him mercilessly.
Luo Zining was so angry that he couldn't speak. After holding back for a long time, he couldn't change the status quo, so he decided to change the topic, "The medicinal materials in the city were all from various villages and counties, and some people in this city who know medicinal materialsPeople went up to the mountains to dig it, and they dug it back and sold it to the drug dealer in the city, and the drug dealer gave it to Boss Cheng to sell it outside."
Huo Lingzhi nodded: "You want to build a pharmaceutical factory, and take the medicine picked by those people directly into the pharmaceutical factory, and then sell it to the winery?"
Although Luo Zining holds more than half of the shares in this winery, he provided the secret recipe and stills, and Boss Cheng paid for it, so when the winery was built, all the bricks used in the winery were bought with money.
If he opened another pharmaceutical factory, Boss Cheng would have to buy all the medicinal materials needed by the winery from the pharmaceutical factory.
"I plan not only to collect the medicinal materials from the mountains, but also to build medicinal fields and grow the medicine myself. These medicines can not only be sold in wine, but also ensure the daily medicine of the people in the city. I plan to open a hospital in the future."Luo Zining talked about the general plan for the future: "I told Dr. Zhen before that I want him to recruit more apprentices. They don't need to be proficient in every aspect. They can be divided into many categories, such as medical doctors and foot doctors.The foot doctor will be turned into a hospital at that time, and whoever gets sick can go to that department for medical treatment. So in the future, a medical school will be built, and Dr. Zhen will be the dean of the medical school and the hospital."
Huo Lingzhi listened carefully, this matter is easier said than done, but they have the right and money, so let his little princess do whatever she wants.
Luo Zining pushed the tested vegetables and meat skewers onto the table between the two of them, and said while eating: "I met with the drug dealer in the city before, he is very nice, quite intelligent, and not a profiteer,It can be used by me. I am going to give him this pharmaceutical factory to open."
As Luo Zining said, he took a bite of the meat skewers, and he squinted his eyes because of the long-lost smell of cumin.
Huo Lingzhi looked at him like a cat: "Is it so delicious?"
"Taste it, and you'll know after a taste." Luo Zining let him eat, and then continued, "The boss of the drug dealer will definitely not be able to afford the money. I decided to borrow the money first."Giving it to him is like giving him a loan to open a factory, and he will return it to me when he makes money, but that piece of land is mine, so I can't give it to him, and he has to collect rent every month. If he dares to betray meIf you donβt do something, or deliberately increase the price of materials, he may be driven away from the land by me at any time.β
Huo Lingzhi took a sip of the barbecue, and it was indeed different and delicious, but Luo Zining's words were more attractive than the barbecue, "You gave him the factory? You don't even buy shares?"
Luo Zining pointed to himself and Huo Lingzhi: "What are we? We are rulers, not businessmen. Although you haven't become emperor yet, I know you will be able to sit in that position sooner or later.Have you ever seen an emperor who opened a factory by himself? The whole world belongs to the emperor, so let others do the work, and we can just sit and collect taxes.
And there is a reason for me to do this. I do this to let everyone see that whoever we want to be rich will be able to become rich, and whoever we want to have nothing will be able to have nothing. Who will dare not listen to us then?if?With rights, how much money do you want?."
"How do I listen, it doesn't look like I'm going to be the emperor, but you are going to be the emperor." Huo Lingzhi had heard his father say before that as a superior, he can give his subordinates ten thousand yuan.The power over people can also cause him to fall into the bottom of the valley and never recover. It is easier to manage if everyone lives in fear of the superior. Unexpectedly, Luo Zining also knewIn this regard, he is quite capable, but he is too kind, so he still can't be this superior person.
"It's meaningless for you to say that. If every time I say a word, you have to think about the meaning of what I say, and then misinterpret my thoughts, then it's meaningless." Luo Zining gave him a reproachful look: "Before youDo you think that I just want to open two factories and earn some money? Now that I say we are the rulers, do you feel that I am ambitious and want to make you emperor? Let me tell you, II've never thought about it this way, we are husband and wife, no matter how much I do, I can't do without you as the backbone, don't you think?"
"Don't talk about those hypocrisy, you know whether I'm your backbone or not," Huo Lingzhi poured himself a glass of wine, "Don't talk about husband and wife, even brothers, father and son may kill each other for power.I am afraid that you will kill me for rights, how can I love you if I die?"
Luo Zining almost choked himself to death. He was terrified when he heard the first half of his sentence. It turned out that Huo Lingzhi had been guarding against him all along. Who knew that he was at a loss when he heard the last sentence. Huo LingzhiIn the end, is this love brain?
The reason why he was afraid that he murdered his own husband for the sake of power was because he was afraid that he would not be able to continue to love him after death?
This, this, how does this make him answer the phone?
"I won't do that, you're dead, who will love me, don't you think so?" Luo Zining didn't know how to explain, so he could only follow his words.
"Are you sure you want to hand over the medicinal material factory to someone else? Are you afraid that Boss Cheng will not be happy?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"What is he not happy about? I gave him the wine business, but I have no way to invest in medicinal materials. The winery relies on my secret recipe.
In addition to the medicinal material factory, the owner of the cloth shop, I also plan to let him open a factory, and others will also open factories. If they grow bigger, I will collect more taxes." Luo Zining said.
"Where do their employees come from? New recruits from outside? You promised to give them houses for the new recruits. If these factories are not under your control, how will the houses be divided?" Huo Lingzhi felt hisThe little princess is sometimes smart and sometimes stupid.
"This is indeed a problem. I want to develop the local economy. I can't hold all the business in my hands. I have to support some other businessmen to make money." Luo Zining said.
"You can't just do half of things. You also said that we are the rulers. What you want is population growth, fiefdom prosperity, and social stability. If you want to quickly achieve your goals, you must sell all the factories and businesses in the city.Itβs easier to manage if everything becomes official, and you are the official.β Huo Lingzhi gave him advice: βYou just treat the drug dealer or the owner of the cloth shop as your official, and the factory director as an official position, and you accept your fate.They go to be factory directors, they use their technology to start making money, their technology can be kept secret, and you give them a salary.β
"But this can't go on for long. Only when the factory is theirs and the business is theirs, they will find ways to make more money. If they wait for me to pay them wages every month, then they will not be motivated to work.You're going to die." Luo Zining argued with him: "I want to make the fief more prosperous, so I have to let them do it."
"No, you have already divided this house, so you have to get all of it. Not only do you have to divide it, but all the people have to live in the house you allocated." Huo Lingzhi's attitude was firm.
"Didn't you disagree with me sharing the house before?" Luo Zining also heard President Huo Lingzhi mocking him for wanting to save all sentient beings, so why are they all scoring now?
"While distributing houses to them, you can buy the houses and land of those who used to have houses. You can use any method, so that everyone will have no houses and land of their own and can only live in the house you gave them." HuoLet me tell you.
Luo Zining rolled his eyes, "The house I allocated can be lived in for the rest of my life, but it can't be bought or sold. If I'm fired, I won't have a house to live in. You mean, they all live in the house I allocated, and these people are allGot it by me?"
"Didn't you think so before?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"What I'm thinking is..." Luo Zining was thinking about the snow disaster in the future. He wanted everyone to live in a house so that they wouldn't freeze to death, and if they lived in a house, they would have a place to marry and have children.There will be more and more people, and his city will prosper. He will manage two factories, open a shop and restaurant, grow vegetables, and then engage in infrastructure and education.He collects taxes when the merchants develop on their own. I didn't expect Huo Lingzhi to be so shady. He took control of everyone as soon as he came up. This is too tiring.
"Will they be willing to sell me the original house and land?" Luo Zining felt that no one would be willing. "Although their previous house was dilapidated, they made money later. They bought bricks to repair it, and it will be good for themselves in the future.a guarantee."
Huo Lingzhi: "If it's not voluntary, I won't sell it? There are 10,000 people in this city, and only 4,000 to 5,000 houses. You say you want to build a new factory, expropriate their land, give them compensation, threatenIt's a lure, the conditions are enough, no one will disagree, as long as you don't say anything, who will think so much."
"It's not a calculation, it's for their own good. They now have food, clothing, and a house to live in. As long as they listen to you and don't be lazy or betray you, they can live a life that is hundreds of times better than before." HuoLingzhi seldom took care of these things before, but he couldn't watch his little princess fetch water from the bamboo basket and spend half a day making wedding dresses for others, "What you have to do now is to hold the entire fief business in your hands, The house is yours, and the factory is also yours. After getting everyone used to obeying you, go to a little bit of reform and let go slowly. If you let them all do it themselves and you supervise it from the beginning, they will definitely notI am willing, but if you take care of it from the beginning, slowly let go and give them some rights, and then supervise, they will feel normal.
"The situation in our fiefdom is different now. If someone doesn't listen to you and wants to go it alone, if necessary, use some tough methods, such as ransacking the house and beheading, killing chickens and monkeys."
Luo Zining swallowed his saliva: "Is this too ruthless? Will that alarm the court? Last time you killed Lin Heihu, didn't they send an imperial envoy?"
"Last time, it was because Chu Liu was from Lincheng, and the officials there also reported it, so we had to report it here. As long as our local prefects don't report it, the imperial court won't know about it." Huo Lingzhi asked him: "In the past, the magistrate forced many people to death, does the imperial court know?"
Luo Zining shook his head, feeling that Huo Lingzhi is the real ruler, his heart is too soft, just now when he said that he wants to be rich, he can make anyone rich, and if he wants to have nothing, he can let him have nothing, so he just said that.On the contrary, it was Huo Lingzhi who did it directly.
"You go to talk to them first, but the words can be gentler, say it's cooperation, give them dividends, and you will be the main decision-maker. They will definitely be happy. Isn't the boss Cheng Cheng very happy? When the time comes, you will recruitThere is also a place for the workers to settle down." Huo Lingzhi said.
Luo Zining thought for a while, and finally nodded: "I will say that the prince is the backbone of our family, but you still say that I flatter you. But I will not be tough. If I can't talk, I will say that it is the prince."Those who forced me, they don't agree, and I can't keep them, they are terrified of you."
