From then on, whenever the grandfather and grandson met and talked about Li Di, they would treat Li Di as a joke.
Little did Li Di know that he had become the laughing stock of an unscrupulous grandson.
Kou Zhun rested in his house for one night and was carried into the palace the next day.
Kou Ji has been staying at the house.
After Chunwei's imperial list was posted, for nearly half a month, new scholars visited their mentor.
Make a home visit within the first three days.
That is to say, you have to be a disciple under the examiner.
If you visit someone after the first three days, it is purely out of courtesy.
Kou Ji recruited more than fifty disciples under his first ranking.
Li Di collected more.
On the contrary, Ma Yuanfang, who has been out of officialdom for a long time, has recruited the fewest disciples.
After Kou Ji had been busy for half a month, fewer people came to visit him, and he started to get busy with other things.
For example, the Ministry of Industry encountered obstacles when promoting new equipment.
As well as the warehouse problem of depositing money in Yizijiaozi Shop.
The obstacles encountered by the Ministry of Industry when promoting new equipment all belong to the government. If Kou Ji cannot handle them, they can be thrown into the palace and handed over to Kou Zhun and others.
It is relatively simple to handle.
But the warehouse problem of Yizijiaozipu is more troublesome to deal with.
As Yizijiaozi Shop continues to develop, the money saved in the shop increases day by day.
The dozen or so warehouses rented from the Fengzhuang warehouse are not enough for Yizijiaozi shop to store money.
Kou Ji must build a new warehouse for Yizijiaozipu.
A newly built warehouse must not only meet the most basic security requirements against theft, but must also prevent many people from knowing about it.
Kou Ji originally thought of setting up three warehouses, one in Jiangning Prefecture, one in Bianjing City, and one in Sichuan Prefecture, to store the money saved by Yizijiaozipu in three places to avoid being wiped out by others.
But after careful consideration, I felt it was inappropriate.
Saving money in three places will certainly help you avoid being noticed.
But the safety factor is not high.
Corruption among the managers of the three warehouses is difficult to avoid.
It is also difficult to allocate the manpower to guard the warehouse.
If there is a rebellion, or if some people in charge of the army want to take it by force, it will be difficult for Kou Ji to take care of it.
So Kou Ji finally decided to set up two warehouses, but the locations of the two warehouses were located in Bianjing City and Leizhou respectively.
One inside and one outside, radiating across the country.
It goes without saying that a warehouse must be set up in Bianjing City.
At any time, as long as Yizijiaozipu wants to develop, it must set up a warehouse in Bianjing City.
One is to facilitate the development of Yizijiaozipu.
Secondly, it is also to be able to come up with enough money at any time to cope with the changes that may happen to Yizijiaozipu at any time.
Another warehouse was chosen to be located in Leizhou, which means there is great meaning in it.
Leizhou is adjacent to the sea.
He was not taken seriously by the princes in the court, so he was always in a state of semi-development.
There are very few people in Leizhou, and there are many places where there is no human habitation for tens of miles.
There are often rogues and bandits.
The above three points are the reasons why Kou Ji values Leizhou.
Kou Ji could send a group of people there and secretly build warehouses in Leizhou under the pretext of helping Kou Li develop Leizhou and make contributions.
During the day, they were laborers building warehouses.
At night, they can be any bandit in Leizhou and wipe out the local rogues and fierce bandits in Leizhou.
Then after the warehouse was built, he stayed in Leizhou in the name of a rogue and a fierce bandit.
He is called a bandit, but he is actually a tough soldier.
Based on the attitude of the princes in the imperial court towards Leizhou, as long as those fierce soldiers did not make any shocking noise in Leizhou, the imperial court would not care about them at all.
Even if someone reveals that the imperial court wants to destroy them, they can escape into the sea overnight and become invisible.
Of course, Kou Ji's warehouse in Leizhou was also a temporary warehouse.
But how long this warehouse will exist depends on when Kou Ji enters the inner court.
It will always exist before Koji enters the inner court.
As long as Kou Ji did not enter the inner court and handed over the money to Zipu, there was a danger of being robbed and used.
The money from Yizijiaozipu was robbed, but it actually didn't matter.
But as a result, Yizijiaozi Shop lost its credibility and caused a wave of bank runs.
That's a disaster.
A disaster that could shake the Song Dynasty.
Kou Ji had an idea in his mind, so he secretly sent Kou Zhong to Baozhou and recruited a group of people to do this.
While Kou Ji was busy working on Yizijiaozi Shop, the imperial court was not idle either.
After spring.
After another two months of tossing, the matter of turning the ban into national law and abolishing officials sitting in sedan chairs finally came to an end.
Kou Zhun and the others were extremely tough on turning the ban into national law.
Several confidential laws were officially written into the laws of the Song Dynasty under the tough attitude of Kou and Zhun.
The punishment for those who break the law is far more severe than the punishments reported before.
Anyone who leaks secrets will be killed without exception.
At worst, it can only behead the evildoer, but at worst, it can implicate three clans and cause disaster for three generations.
After several laws were promulgated, the whole country was in an uproar.
Civil servants and scholars rushed to Bianjing like crazy, hoping to use their efforts to get the court to abolish these laws.
Kou Zhun and the other three did not allow them to continue causing trouble.
After hundreds of bloody heads were hung at the market entrance at the west city gate, no one made a fuss about this incident again.
Those civil servants and scholars still want to guide the people to cause trouble behind their backs.
But Kou Zhun and the other three took the lead and dispatched soldiers from the post station to run around every corner of the Song Dynasty with copies of several laws and regulations, telling the world word for word the new laws and regulations set by the court.
All the people.
Those civil servants and scholars had just finished confusing the people, but before the people could cause trouble, the rumors were self-defeating.
The decree implemented by the imperial court this time did not touch anyone's interests.
It only caused obstacles for civil servants and scholars to write books and establish theories.
Civil servants and scholars relied on rumors to incite the people to cause trouble, but when the court announced the truth of the matter to the world, the people naturally would not blindly follow it.
The imperial court killed another group of people as a warning.
Naturally, those civil servants and scholars could not continue to cause trouble.
They can't use the secrets of the imperial court to write books and make a name for themselves. It just lacks a way to become famous. They don't have to risk their lives to go against the imperial court.
But they were still unhappy in their hearts, and secretly made things difficult for Kou Zhun and the others.
At this time, Kou Zhun and the others issued a decree approving the abolition of sedan chairs, and only then did civil servants and scholars wave the flag.
In their eyes, the reason why Kou Zhun and the others agreed to abolish the sedan chair was that they were submissive to them.
Give them the steps.
They walked down the stairs naturally.
After the two troublesome matters were dealt with, it was already May.
The whole court and the public were silent.
Just when everyone thought they could relax for a few days.
Zhu Neng's memorial caused an uproar.
"I am asking the imperial court to depose the general as a supervisor and hand over the power of forging ordnance to the Ministry of Works..."
Zhu Neng gave a very good reason.
The Ministry of Industry has new iron!
Armor and weapons are forged from new iron, far superior to iron!
New rail is cheaper!
When Kou Ji learned the news, he sat in the recliner and was stunned for a long time.
"Why did Zhu Neng become such a vanguard?"
Kou Jike clearly remembered that during the Spring Science Examination, Ma Yuanfang urged Li Di to quickly resolve the matter of turning the ban into national law and abolishing sedan chairs, so that he could be the vanguard and report to the court.
Depose the general prisoner.
Now Ma Yuanfang hasn't submitted the letter yet, but Zhu Neng has taken the lead?
The power of the generals to forge ordnance was secretly controlled by the warriors.
If Ma Yuanfang writes to the imperial court, he may request that the general be deposed from his power to supervise the forging of ordnance.
That is to use civility to defeat force.
Although it may offend Wu Xun, civil servants will definitely come forward to support Ma Yuanfang.
You, Zhu Neng, are a martial artist, and you have written to the imperial court to remove the general from his power to supervise the forging of ordnance.
Not only will you offend Wu Xun, but the civil servants will not treat you well either.
Are you fighting alone?!
Kou Ji couldn't sit still, so he stood up and walked around the yard for a long time. He summoned Kou Zhong and ordered: "Send someone to the Zhu Mansion and tell Uncle Zhu that I have something to ask him to come over."
Narrative."
Kou Zhong agreed, went out of the yard, and summoned a diligent man to go to Zhu's Mansion to invite Zhu Neng.
Not long after.
Zhu Neng's hearty laughter sounded outside the main hall of Kou Mansion.
"Hahaha... Nephew, why do you want me to come here? Is it because you are greedy?"
After the sound fell to the ground.
Zhu Neng walked into the main hall of the Kou Mansion with steady steps like a black bear.
When Kou Ji saw Zhu Neng, he stood up, walked up to Zhu Neng, and sighed: "Uncle Zhu, how could you poke that hornet's nest?"
Zhu Neng was stunned, scratched his itchy head with his hand, and said unexpectedly: "You came to me, wasn't it because you were greedy?"
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the little guy who was holding Kou Ji's thigh and refused to let go. He said in surprise: "This little thing has grown up a lot. Can he make a pot of stew?"
The little guy probably sensed Zhu Neng's unfriendly aura, and glanced at Zhu Neng with his two round eyes.
Then he fell from Kou Ji's lap to the ground, swaying his white buttocks, and ran towards the back hall.
Kou Ji sighed, his tone became a little more serious, and he said, "Uncle Zhu!"
Zhu Neng withdrew his eyes from staring at the little guy and sighed: "I don't want to poke that hornet's nest, but the Dragon God's two guards will be taken out for training soon. If they can't change into some good weapons and armor, they will
After winning the battlefield, you still have to suffer a loss?"
Kou Ji said dumbfounded: "Can't you wait any longer?"
Zhu Neng curled his lips and said: "It's been half a year since the Tiger Character Army showed its power on the school field. Who knows how long it will take..."
Kou Ji sighed and said, "But if you throw a memorial into the inner court, you have offended more than half of the military honors at once."
Zhu Neng waved his hands nonchalantly and said: "Anyway, I'm not on the same side as them. If I offend you, I'll be offended. How can they still eat me?"
Hearing Zhu Neng's reckless words, Kou Jizhen didn't know what to say.
Call him vulgar, but he is delicate, a hundred times more delicate than Kou Ji.
He was said to be delicate, but he did such a reckless thing.
Zhu Neng saw that Kou Ji had a sullen face and kept his mouth shut, so he said cheerfully: "I know that you care about me, and you are afraid that I will offend those martial artists and that I will not be able to gain a foothold in the court in the future.
But have you ever thought that my foundation is your grandfather.
As long as your grandfather doesn't fall, no one can do anything to me."
Kou Ji saw that Zhu Neng was rarely so frank, so he asked seriously: "What if my grandfather falls?"
Zhu Neng was stunned for a moment, pondered seriously, and said: "It depends on how it fell..."
Others may not understand the meaning of Zhu Neng's words, but Kou Ji understood Zhu Neng's meaning in an instant.
If Kou Zhun fell ill normally, then he would just hang out in the court.
Anyway, he has made a lot of contributions to the court over the years. Even if he is ostracized and loses control of his troops, he can still live comfortably for the rest of his life relying on his achievements.
As long as he is careful in his words and deeds, trouble will not be found on him.
But if someone moves to Kou Zhun, he will inevitably run around for Kou Zhun.
If he could help Kou Zhun recover, then he would help Kou Zhun recover.
If he couldn't help Kou Zhun recover, then he would make a big fuss and seek justice for Kou Zhun.
Zhu Neng was truly loyal to Kou Zhun.
Willing to help Kou Zhun do anything.
Just as Kou Ji was about to open his mouth, Zhu Neng suddenly grinned and said, "If your grandfather falls, won't you still be there?"
Kou Ji was stunned again and again.
He didn't understand what Zhu Neng meant.
Zhu Neng's words were polite...
Or maybe he had already planned to help Kou Zhun ascend to power and follow him after Kou Zhun resigned...
When Zhu Neng saw that Kou Ji fell into silence again, he roughly guessed what Kou Ji was thinking, and he didn't explain much.
If it were in the past, Zhu Neng might have explained something to prevent Kou Ji from misunderstanding.
But after Kou Ji learned that he had stirred up a hornet's nest today, he couldn't wait to call him over. For the sake of his safety, he was not going to explain.
If Kou Zhun really resigns, it would not be bad for him to follow Kou Ji.
But the premise is that Kou Ji will have the status of a tiger guard by then.
If he didn't have the status of Yuhu, he would never obey Kou Ji's orders.
He will only help and take care of Kou Ji as an elder.
He Zhu Neng is a tiger, not a dog.
Not just anyone can control it casually.
Kou Ji smiled slightly awkwardly and said: "Uncle Zhu, you think too highly of me..."
Zhu Neng grinned but said nothing.
Kou Ji's words are actually a kind of temptation.
Let’s test what Zhu Neng meant by what he just said.
But Zhu Neng did not answer.
Seeing that the test failed, Kou Ji asked in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhu, are you really not worried about your own safety?"
Zhu Neng grinned and said, "You still don't understand your grandfather."
Kou Ji said in astonishment: "How?"
Zhu Neng said quietly: "Although your grandfather is upright in everything he does, when it comes to protecting calves, none of the civil and military officials in the entire dynasty can compare with your grandfather."
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat disbelieving.
In the previous erysipelas incident, Kou Zhun showed a righteous attitude of exterminating relatives.
