People like Ruan Wen were of great use to the Ming Dynasty.

Fang Jifan felt most moved in his heart. To be honest, those rebellious rebellions are really hateful. If you start a rebellion, you will be fine. What should you do if you kill someone’s wife and children first? It’s inauthentic and unethical.

People like Fang Jifan who have strange views never do such despicable things.

When Fang Jifan heard that Ruan Wen vomited half a liter of blood, he couldn't help but worry, but he didn't know that the Jiaozhi envoy could still withstand it. If he couldn't, he must save him. Such a loyal person could not find him even with a lantern.

Zhu Houzhao said "Good man" and immediately fell into an embarrassing silence in the warm cabinet.

The joy that appeared below the Prince's Hall was really... something was wrong.

Immediately, everyone agreed: "Yes, yes."

Emperor Hongzhi was shocked and said solemnly: "The chaos in Jiaozhi shows that this missionary is the top priority. I will issue another order to order Jiaozhi to teach and teach the deputy envoy to teach and teach and teach, and to do my best to share my worries."

Fang Jifan said loudly: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. My disciple Wang Bo'an is different from ordinary people. With him in Jiaozhi, the court can be worry-free."

Here, Fang Jifan is the most ugly person in his eating habits.

Shengri praised his disciples as a flower, and he praised them as much as he praised them, and insisted on adding a saying that they were different from others. This is to step on others to take the lead.

Zhang Sheng felt uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly. He wanted to say something, but opened his mouth but found that he couldn't say anything. He thought about it carefully, hey, what's wrong, it's just that the recommendation he recommended was too pedantic...

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to agree with Fang Jifan's words very much, and he couldn't help but nod.

Fang Jifan mentioned Wang Bo'an, the son of Wang Hua, Wang Shouren, which made him feel more deeply impressed by Wang Shouren.

Although Emperor Hongzhi knew Fang Jifan's mentality of protecting his son, he could slowly make indirect attacks. At least, Emperor Hongzhi was already familiar with this deputy envoy of the school.

However, Zhang Sheng was a little unwilling to accept it. After all, he was the Minister of Rites. Fang Jifan pointed at him and was a bit like a mess. Zhang Sheng stared at Fang Jifan with a smile: "What's wrong with the lieutenant recently in the desert?"

“…”

First of all, the one who turned his face stiffened was Emperor Hongzhi. He would pick up any pot without opening any pot.

Fang Jifan got the desert and had already spread throughout the capital. After all, this young prince-in-law was now a big hit, and there were all kinds of rumors about him on the streets and alleys.

I heard that Fang Jifan got the desert, both inside and outside the court and the country were just a joke.

After all, a person who has done such a big thing and made such great contributions has been too perfect recently.

But because of this, this kid suddenly became frustrated and found out.

After Zhang Sheng finished speaking, some people couldn't help laughing.

Just now, everyone heard the bad news about Ruan Wen, and they were still holding their faces and pretending to be like a loss. Now that they are better, they can finally laugh happily.

Xie Qian couldn't help laughing: "Qizhao, don't make fun of this, this is sprinkling salt on the wound."

Fang Jifan was confused. Why did they always tease me like this? I didn’t seem to offend them, and I was honest and good person!

Zhang Sheng felt that he had said something, so he coughed and said to Fang Jifan with his eyebrows lowered and his eyes closed, "Sorry, sorry, the commander, I'm very sorry, it's because I didn't cover up my mouth."

From Liu Jian to Ma Wensheng, they all smiled.

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say angrily: "The land of the desert is always sunny, and the land of the desert is making fun of Fang Jifan. If you get the desert land, what's so funny? Even if it's all yellow sand all over the sky, it's still the land."

He acknowledged the unfairness of Fang Jifan and continued to say with a voice: "I have heard it recently, and the servants of the East Palace are talking in a low voice. The masters also used it to make fun of anyone like this?"

His voice rose a few decibels, and everyone stopped laughing. Everyone clearly saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little angry.

But Li Dongyang was silent for a moment and suddenly said, "Your Highness, isn't this desert soil your Highness suggesting to Your Majesty?"

“…”

Zhu Houzhao was stunned.

Is there any?

Yeah?

who I am?

Where am I?

He looked silly: "I was talking nonsense at that time. Whoever knew that my father believed it, and I forgot about it."

“…”

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but glar at this level of cheating. It turned out that you were talking nonsense at the beginning, but I did it again, but you said it was nothing to do with me, right?

When Zhu Houzhao saw his father staring at him fiercely, his scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but lower his eyes and said to Emperor Hongzhi: "My son has something to do, so say goodbye."

He saluted and wanted to leave.

Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, how lonely, boring, and how sad these ministers are, so they make fun of such unfunny jokes all day long.

Fang Jifan also learned from Zhu Houzhao's attitude and said, "My son has something to do, so please ask Your Majesty to say goodbye to me."

Emperor Hongzhi was already extremely embarrassed, so he waved impatiently: "Go and go."

Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan were busy leaving.

After leaving the warm pavilion, Fang Jifan stepped out of the palace quickly.

Zhu Houzhao chased after him.

"Lao Fang, those guys, can you bear this tone of making fun of you like this? I saw that Master Liu laughed too, and grabbed his son Liu Jie and knelt for three days and three nights, let's see if Master Liu can still laugh."

While walking, he stood up for Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan was happy: "Your Highness, don't mess around like this. It's not a good idea to bully his son. Besides, I'm not angry at all."

Zhu Houzhao was happy: "It's good if you don't get angry, hum..."

He looked out of the matter, but he seemed to be the initiator of the incident, not him.

"Do you go see my son?" Zhu Hou took care of the left and right and whispered: "Let's take a look at Xiaofan."

Fang Jifan thought for a while: "I will go tomorrow. I see that Mr. Liu and others will also say goodbye. I will bump into His Majesty later, which is not good."

Zhu Houzhao shivered and felt it made sense, so she couldn't help but nodded repeatedly: "Listen to you, let's go to Xishan and ask Mr. Wen to make some food."

The two walked out of the palace while leaving the palace.

Just after leaving the Meridian Gate, he saw Manager Yang waiting anxiously: "Young Master, Young Master..."

Fang Jifan went forward, and Manager Yang was panting and was out of breath.

"Why are you so anxious?" Fang Jifan couldn't help but frown and asked.

When Fang Jifan spoke, Manager Yang had already recovered and said, "Young Master, there is a letter from Pinglu Wei. The young master told me that if there is a letter, I will show it to the young master as soon as possible, and the student will come."

When Fang Jifan heard this, he was shocked and said to Zhu Houzhao: "My beloved disciple Jiang Chen has come to write a letter. I miss him these days, I really don't want to eat or drink."

As he said that, he took the letter.

Open the letter, which was indeed Jiang Chen's handwritten letter, thick stack, not only that, on the first page, Jiang Chen personally wrote, saying that he had discovered huge mineral veins, including two lakes and rivers in Jinsha. Not only that, two copper veins were also found, one iron ore, and another, perhaps a silver mine…”

The last few pages are not written by Jiang Chen, but a map, which roughly identifies the locations of each mining area and has detailed exploration results. In short, these are rich ores, with high taste and initially amazing reserves. They are relatively easy to mine, which is different from many mines in the pass. Many mines in the pass are not suitable for open-pit excavation, which leads to the cost of mining.

After Jiang Chen and the others found the golden sand and the first copper vein, they began to explore everywhere in the mountainous area crazily. As a result, more and more minerals were found...

So, we naturally came to report the good news.

Fang Jifan's eyes were straightened.

Of course he knew that the Baiyin City in later generations was the most important mineral base. This place was unknown in the past and no one was interested in it at all. However, with the discovery of minerals, the city was built directly. After decades of mining, countless resources were still supplying the industry in later generations.

But now, the area where this silver is located is like a land of land. There are no traces of human mining here, and there are so many natural treasures contained in that mountain.

Gold, silver, and copper, these three things, are dug out and simply melted, and they are money. As for other resources, they will also be of great use in the future.

Fang Jifan was shocked and said nothing.

Seeing Fang Jifan like this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but come up: "What's wrong, what's wrong... What happened? Is Jiang Chen dead? Lao Fang, you're so sad, you'll die if you die. Don't you have so many disciples, one or two deaths, it's okay..."

Fang Jifan only realized after receiving the letter.

His mind was a little dizzy, this was a long-lost feeling...I'm getting rich.

At present... the gold and silver in South America have not been imported into the Ming Dynasty. The value of gold and silver is extremely high. As for copper... that is even more needed by the Ming Dynasty.

Fang Jifan took a deep breath: "I want to see the emperor, I want to report the good news."

This matter cannot be hidden, and Fang Jifan doesn't want to hide it. Instead of mine secretly, it is better to be more open and upright.

Fang Jifan didn't say anything, he tightened his letter and ran towards the Meridian Gate again.

Excited...

The desert soil is finally valuable.

What gold, silver and copper bring... is not just wealth.

Just like North America at that time, the western part of North America was a desert. In addition to the no-man's land, there were a large number of Indians who were hostile to the colonists. But in the end... why did there be a movement of moving westward? There were countless colonists who were crazy and took great dangers to move westward...

Because...gold!
