Chapter 233: The fire truck is useless.
Baochan nodded and smiled: "Now that Lord Ye has taken over Yizhou, Dongba County and Yizhou will naturally become one family. I believe that Yizhou under Lord Ye's governance will be as stable and prosperous as Dongba County, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment."
"This is my dream and goal. Whether I can achieve it or not, I still need Miss Baochan's guidance and help."
"I am ignorant, how dare I teach Lord Ye?"
"I have heard for a long time that Miss Baochan is extremely virtuous. I believe that this is true. It is only natural for you to give me advice."
Ye Kun smiled.
Lu Yu was very sensible and had left long ago.
Ye Kun and Baochan were chatting, and it was very warm and interactive.
After finishing a cup of tea, Baochan smiled and said, "Master Ye, it's getting late. I dare not stay for long. Please make yourself at home."
Ye Kun was not polite, he took Xie Baochan's hand and said with a smile:
"I came all the way here and just sat down, and you are so cruel that you want to chase me away?"
Xie Baochan blushed and whispered:
"When the flowers bloom and the moon is full, I will serve Master Ye. The beautiful scenery is right in front of us, why should Master Ye be in such a hurry?"
"Miss Baochan is right."
Ye Kun nodded and smiled, then asked:
"On the wedding night, will Miss Baochan test me again on poetry? If she does, I will go back and write a few more poems as a backup. Otherwise, I won't be able to enter your bridal chamber."
Baochan smiled and said, "If Lord Ye is willing, it would be best if he could write a few more poems."
"Okay, I'll go home and recite the Book of Songs, Chuci, Daya and Li Sao. When the time comes, please give me your guidance, Miss Baochan."
Ye Kun smiled, clasped his fists and said goodbye.
Baochan walked her out of the embroidery room and bowed affectionately to say farewell.
Ye Kun bid farewell to Xie Tong and returned home with Zhuge Feng.
But after returning home, I was confused and couldn't sleep.
No wonder, Ye Kun has been away from women for two whole months since the army set out.
I fell asleep in the middle of the night, still lost in thought.
the next day.
Ye Kun summoned officials and senior craftsmen at all levels in Yizhou to visit the many samples brought by Lao He and demonstrate the effects in the farmland outside the city.
Waterwheel, plow, hydraulic hammer for automatic water pumping, tricycle, flatbed cart, wheelbarrow, human-powered wheelbarrow suspended plow...
There are also practical small items such as stone mills, abacus, washboards, and Luoyang shovels.
The officials of Yizhou were dazzled and overwhelmed by what they saw.
Especially the hydraulic hammer that pumped water automatically opened the eyes of Yizhou officials. In their eyes, this thing was more magical than the Dujiangyan Irrigation System.
In fact, this is a device that uses the impact and pressure of water flow to deliver water. The Dading Kingdom already has it, but Yizhou does not.
Ye Kun made further improvements and adjustments, resulting in better results.
There is also a kind of unpowered water turbine pump, which Ye Kun has not had time to make.
The practical functions of various products were demonstrated throughout the day.
The officials in Yizhou had a new understanding of Ye Kun - this guy loves to play and knows how to play!
Ye Kun issued an order in public: "From today on, I appoint Lao He as the head of all craftsmen, responsible for the production technology of all craftsmen's workshops. Lao He will not be responsible for administration and finance, but only for technical research and development."
Officials at all levels clasped their fists together and called him "Sir He".
Old He grinned: "I am Mr. Ye's student. This was all done under Mr. Ye's instruction..."
This guy is not interested in being an official, he just wants to do research and invention.
With the arrival of a large number of craftsmen and technicians, Ye Kun personally led a team to investigate and coordinate with all parties. He demarcated a huge area in the river valley twelve miles east of Chengdu, dug three artificial canals, and built a large-scale water power workshop.
Ye Kun firmly believes in and adheres to the proposition that science and technology are the primary productive forces.
After selecting the site for the hydraulic workshop, Ye Kun handed over other matters to the officials in charge and Lao He.
There are still three major things to do, directly copying Zhuge Liang's homework on governing Yizhou.
First, Dujiangyan is the lifeblood of Yizhou's water conservancy project. Ye Kun appointed a separate Dujiangyan official to manage the Dujiangyan.
Second, Shu brocade was famous throughout the world and was one of the important pillar industries. Ye Kun set up a separate brocade official to be in charge of the production of Shu brocade. Chengdu in later generations was also called Jinguan City because of the establishment of the position of Jinguan.
Third, Yizhou had numerous salt wells that could produce salt, and a separate salt-collecting official was appointed to be responsible for collecting and refining salt.
After arranging the people for these three major events, it is time for Ye Kun to have his wedding night.
The end of March is the season when flowers bloom and willows turn green in Chengdu.
The prefect's mansion was decorated with lights and full of joy.
Xie Tong mobilized dozens of horse-drawn carriages and a sedan chair carried by eight people to send the beautiful widow Xie Baochan to the prefect's mansion.
She also brought a rich dowry, including 500 kilograms of gold, 1,000 kilograms of silver, countless silks, brocades, and rare treasures. She also brought 16 maids and two housekeepers...
Rich people are different. They buy gold by kilogram, or even by hundred kilograms!
Officials of all ranks in Chengdu came to congratulate and present gifts.
A grand banquet was held at the prefect's mansion.
Anyway, Chengdu has a lot of money, so let’s squander it!
Poor Shangguan Jifu, he was still leading his troops in the war in Guanzhong and could not attend the wedding banquet, but just wrote a congratulatory letter.
Ye Kun was drunk to 70% and then he pretended to be dead and refused to drink.
If I drink any more, I’m afraid I won’t feel strong enough in the bridal chamber.
Zhou Xuanwu also blocked the way and stopped everyone from toasting.
After the guests left, Ye Kun washed his face, changed his clothes, and went to the bridal chamber.
"Master Ye, please stay..."
Xie Baochan's study companion, Luyu, stopped Ye Kun in front of the bridal chamber again and said with a smile, "Young lady said that Lord Ye must write a poem before entering the bridal chamber."
Ye Kun was drunk and looked at Lu Yu with a smile:
"My dear sister, I have drunk too much wine and my head is dizzy. I can't write poetry. Please have pity on me and let me in."
Lu Yu smiled and said, "This is the young lady's order. I dare not let him go."
Ye Kun had no choice but to wave his hand and said, "Pen and ink are ready!"
A maid was already there, having prepared pen and ink.
Ye Kun thought about it and wrote a poem:
"Colorful sleeves are holding the jade bell attentively. Back then, I was drunk and blushed. I danced under the moon in the willow-shaped building, and sang under the wind under the peach blossom fan. Since we parted, I miss our meeting. I have been with you in my dreams for many times. Tonight, I shine the silver lamp again, but I am still afraid that our meeting is just a dream."
Luyu was a reading companion, so she was naturally proficient in writing. After reading it, she was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Master Ye, with such a good poem, you can enter the young lady's bridal chamber!"
Xie Baochan's voice came, and he said with a smile: "Luyu's words don't count. Bring it to me."
Lu Yu agreed and took the bamboo slips to show the young lady.
Baochan was deeply moved after reading it, and came to pick it up in person, holding Ye Kun's hand: "Master Ye, our meeting tonight is not a dream, please rest assured."
Ye Kun straightened his clothes and bowed, "For me, this is a dream come true."
Lu Yu smiled and said, "If this is a dream, then from now on, you will have such a good dream every night."
Ye Kun and Bao Chan walked into the bridal chamber hand in hand.
The maids set up a banquet.
Ye Kun and Bao Chan had a few drinks, held hands and said some sweet words to build up their emotions.
As the night deepened, Baochan sent Luyu and others away, and went to Wushan with Ye Kun for sex.
Tenderness is like water, good times are like dreams.
When dry wood and raging fire meet, even the fire truck will be useless!
The two of them made love for a while, talked about some private things, and then made love again...
I didn't fall asleep until the rooster crowed for the first time.
The next morning, the couple got up together, smiled at each other, and sorted each other's clothes.
