"Lu Ban, Ou Yezi, Li Bing, greet the lord."

"No need to be polite!"

Ning Fan's attitude was very easy-going, and there was even a hint of respect in his eyes. Although these three were not in the temple and were not heroes in expanding the territory, each of them promoted the historical process of China.

In that brilliant 5,000-year civilization, monuments were erected one after another, which was enough for him to respect them!

"Today, the king respectfully invites the four of you to join us in planning a great undertaking."

"From now on, Lu Ban will be the director of our Huainan Engineering Bureau, and Li Bing, Ou Yezi, and Li Chun will be deputy directors, who will oversee our three-year major infrastructure project in Huainan."

"The well-being of millions of people in Huainan depends on you."

"I dare not!"

The four of them all showed a touch of humility, and Ning Fan smiled and looked at Li Bing and said, "Mr. Li Bing, from now on, you will be responsible for the Huaishui Southward Project. No matter whether you need manpower, money, or equipment, you will be given priority. If you can't solve it, find me!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Mr. Li Chun, after Li Bing has planned the drawings of the Huaishui Southward Project, he will start to build bridges. The king requires that all the important roads to be dredged be connected by bridges."

"No matter the cost, no matter Cost, through all the major roads. "

"Yes!"

"Master Lu Ban, from now on, you will be in charge of the Engineering Bureau. All new inventions or equipment that can be developed can be developed regardless of cost, including but not limited to agricultural tools, equipment, military equipment, and even some strange inventions. "

"In addition, this king plans to build an engineering school to gather talents from all over the world to train craftsmen. "

"At that time, I will rely on you. "

Ning Fan drew a big and round pie, and Lu Ban and the other four were overjoyed and bowed respectfully: "Your Highness is wise, and we will do our best."

With the addition of Lu Ban and the other four, Ning Fan seemed to have unloaded a heavy burden. In the past six months, in order to plan the infrastructure of Huainan, every major plan had to convene the entire Huainan team to discuss and study together.

Now, with Lu Ban and others in charge, he can be a hands-off boss again.

"Your Highness!"

"Hehe, my Highness, we've made a fortune."

"The Lu family is bleeding."

Ning Fan had just finished dealing with the infrastructure development and had just returned to the palace when Shen Wansan rushed in. The fat man relied on Ning Fan's doting and became more and more unruly.

However, Ning Fan was also happy to indulge him. After all, it was the palace's treasure plate, and the fat man had strength!

"Okay, let's see what you can do."

"Tell me, how do you make money?"

Shen Wansan grinned, leaned forward and whispered: "Guess how much we got from the Lu family?"

"Hehe, the price of grain has been rising all over the country these days, three to five times higher than usual. One million dan of grain must be worth one million taels of silver, right?"

"More than that!"

Shen Wansan's face was about to burst into laughter, leaned forward and said: "In the past few days, in order to quickly collect grain on the market, the Lu family has invested regardless of cost. The price of grain has increased five times compared to usual."

"Hehe, they are really rich!"

Ning Fan showed a playful look on his face, looking at Shen Wansan: "Did you attract the attention of the Lu family?"

"No!"

"Very good, in that case, I can accompany them well Playing around."

"Tell me, how much did you get this time?"

"More than 1.3 million taels."

"Hiss!"

Ning Fan's face also showed a touch of shock, and he whispered: "One stone of grain is one tael and three hundred coins, haha, what a big hand."

"Your Highness, the people have suffered these days, and we can't drag it on any longer."

"Well!"

Ning Fan nodded, pondered for a moment, and whispered: "Send a message to all branches of the Han Grain Bank, starting tomorrow, sell potatoes and sweet potatoes at a low price. I want to see whether the Lu family's grain is piled up in the warehouse to mold or sold at a low price."

"Yes!"

Shen Wansan's eyes were bright. During this period of time, he had already transported the potatoes and sweet potatoes harvested in the capital to the north of the Lijiang River, and the major granaries in Huainan were also frantically transporting grain to all parts of the country.

Enough to make the Lu family despair.

"Your Highness, I have something to worry about."

"Speak!"

"Nowadays, the common people cannot afford the food on the market. If we replace it with potatoes and sweet potatoes, will the common people be willing to buy it?"

"Hehe!"

Ning Fan shook his head: "When you can't even fill your stomach, you can eat leaves and grass roots, so how can you not eat potatoes and sweet potatoes?"

"Besides, I have developed many ways to eat potatoes and sweet potatoes!"

"Roast, boil, and even fry."

"Nowadays, potatoes and sweet potatoes are so cheap, even cheaper than grains, so ordinary people are naturally more willing to pay for them."

"Don't worry, I have prepared a killer move for the Lu family."

Seeing Ning Fan's confident look, Shen Wansan was relieved and nodded gently.

"Is there any movement from the Hu family?"

"Your Highness, the Hu family's salt business has been completely defeated by our Ming Dynasty Salt Business. Although they used a lot of clumsy means, they were helpless after we strengthened our defenses."

"Besides, the second son of the Hu family is still in our hands, so they dare not move lightly."

"When a dog is desperate, it will jump over the wall."

Ning Fan smiled faintly, but he didn't care. Now, whether it was the Hu family or the Lu family, the overall situation had been determined and there was no storm. They couldn't win by words. If they really wanted to use force, Dayu's four borders were stable now, so they were naturally more vulnerable.

"Okay, go down and prepare!"

"Don't be careless. This is related to the foundation of the people. We must ensure that the people in all places will not go hungry."

"Yes!"

Shen Wansan took a big step down, and Ning Fan became more and more calm. In less than two years, he had grown from a useless young man who was not well-versed in the world to an old man who was good at chess... young talent!

In a word, don't be timid, just do it!

If you want Huainan and Dayu to embark on the road of becoming a great power, ordinary means will not work.

In a blink of an eye, the sun set in the west. Ning Fan finished dealing with all the trivial matters and was ready to get off work. The night market in Zhuquefang is now gradually rising. After the curfew was abolished, the night life of the entire Lingzhou City has become colorful.

However, it is still in the construction stage, and it is only a small-scale trial operation. Everything is developing steadily and orderly.

Villa.

Xiaolongnu sat in front of the dressing table. She looked more beautiful than before, and there was a hairpin on her head, which made her look more charming.

With the sound of the door being pushed open, Xiaolongnu had already noticed Ning Fan's arrival, but she did not turn back.

"Long'er."

Ning Fan came forward from behind and hugged Xiaolongnu, with a touch of tenderness on his face.

The night was destined to be restless. Ning Fan was a hardworking person, and even more a diligent person. He was thinking about practicing all the time. He wanted to become stronger!
