Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

"Shuozhen? Why are you here?"

"How is your study going?"

Looking at Chen Shuozhen who suddenly appeared, Li You felt a little strange.

After Chen Shuozhen followed Mou Bin to study in Jinyiwei, the chances for them to meet were actually not many.

Li You thought about it carefully, the last time he saw this first empress was when he was treating Pei Ju in Sun Simiao's medicine hut.

Calculating the time, it has been almost half a year.

Chen Shuozhen saluted slightly, and then said: "Back to the lord, Shuozhen has been studying with Master recently, and recently traveled far away, to the south of the Yangtze River."

"When Shuozhen came back, he met a group of strange people."

"Shuozhen felt that they were not bad, so he boldly brought them back."

Hearing this, Li You instantly understood.

This group of people must have been arranged for him by the system.

He smiled slightly and said, "Is there someone named Wu Leichuan among these people?"

"Ah, the prince knows these people?"

Li You called out Wu Leichuan's name at once, which surprised Chen Shuozhen.

Because it was Wu Leichuan who took the lead in this group of people.

When Li You used the card just now, the reasonable identities of these people in Datang appeared in Li You's mind.

These people are a vaudeville troupe wandering all over the country, and what Li You calls science is the basis of their juggling.

They have relied on these methods for many years, but they have never been reconciled in their hearts.

They don't want this knowledge to be buried, but they always run into walls in the process of imparting knowledge.

Of course, after hearing that Li You's new teaching in Chang'an was similar to what they had learned, they went to Chang'an together.

It was purely "accidental" that Chen Shuo could predict these people, but they also left a deep impression on her.

Li You smiled slightly and said, "Their information was also given to me by Jin Yiwei, and you also know that my new study is to recruit these capable people and strangers."

"By the way, Xiao Shuo really has to go to school!"

Hearing this, Chen Shuozhen was also surprised.

"Me, can I go too?"

"Aren't all the students in the new school from the Imperial College?"

"And I have to follow Master!"

Chen Shuozhen was actually somewhat curious about the new learning, especially after getting in touch with Wu Leichuan for a period of time, she felt that the new learning was miraculous.

However, the previous selection conditions for new students also made Chen Shuozhen somewhat discouraged.

So when Li You said that she was going to school too, it would be a lie to say that she was not moved.

But at the same time, Chen Shuozhen also remembered her oath, she was going to be the woman of Jinyiwei.

Just when heaven and man were at war in her heart, Li You said, "I'll just tell him about Mou Bin. From now on, when you don't have any tasks, you can go to school during the day and follow your master at night."

"The situation in the future may change dramatically. If you want to become an excellent Jinyiwei, it is not enough to just learn the existing knowledge."

"But this will be more difficult, Xiaoshuo really willing!"

Li You said while smiling, his face full of encouragement.

Chen Shuozhen did not disappoint Li You's expectations, she nodded heavily and said: "Shuozhen, I will definitely not disappoint the prince's expectations!"

"As long as he can help the prince in the future, Shuozhen is not afraid of suffering."

From that day on, Li You's new school had a vice principal named Wu Leichuan, 25 teachers, and a little girl named Chen Shuozhen.

After completing the handover, Li You entered the palace and asked Li Shimin to go to Hexi again.

At this moment, Li Shimin was also enjoying the snow scene leisurely.

Seeing Li You coming, Li Shimin asked easily: "Your, why do you have time to enter the palace today?"

Li You didn't hide it and said: "Father, my son wants to go to Hexi again, please give permission."

"Why go to Hexi again? It's just your fiefdom, don't worry about it so much."

Li Shimin also came here as a prince, so he naturally understands how the fiefdom should be managed.

Generally speaking, it is enough to send someone from the palace to collect the rent. Except for those with special resources, there is actually no need to go to the fiefdom.

It is precisely because of this that sometimes, when the emperor entrusted the land, he did not delineate the actual place, but just said a number.

Then the Ministry of Households estimates a rent based on this amount and gives it to the blocked person.

In modern terms, this act of conferring land is actually just raising wages.

It seems that there is a reward in kind, but in fact it is only money and food.

Li You pretended to be a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "Father, you also know that Wang Xuance's caravan borrowed a lot of money, and they didn't bring back all of it last time."

"Didn't they both go to Kuangdao Zhechong Mansion now? I don't worry about the money, so I have to go there myself!"

Li You said so on the surface, but what he thought in his heart was not the same thing at all.

[Hey, Li Er, what do you know. 】

[Labor and capital went to Hexi not for the money at all, am I still a little short of that now. 】

[This time I went to put down the steel workshop. 】

[I have read it in the system. The design output of this steel workshop is not small. If it is not placed in an area close to the collection of raw materials, the shipping fee alone will be a considerable expense. 】

[Besides, do you know how troublesome it is to acquire such a large piece of land in Chang'an? 】

[Last time, I had my eye on Fangshi, and I haven't dared to come to talk about it yet. 】

【…】

Li You's complaints continued, but Li Shimin's attention was already on the steel workshop.

Since his Modao Army plan was postponed indefinitely, what he has been thinking about day and night is to increase Datang's iron production.

And now, Li You is also going to open a steel workshop.

According to the surprises that Li You's past workshops brought him, Li Shimin subconsciously realized that the output of Datang iron might take a leap.

It is very likely that all of his Modao Legion weapons will come from this steel workshop.

Knowing Li You's purpose, Li Shimin was secretly delighted.

He didn't poke it out, and agreed with joy.

Just when Li You was about to leave, Li Shimin couldn't help but speak.

"You'er, if you encounter any difficulties during your trip to Hexi, you can report them to the imperial court."

"I must let them give priority to your affairs."

Li You thanked you again.

[Not bad, today I finally look like a father. 】

[But look at his excited face, why do I always feel that he has tricked me. 】

[Actually, it’s not that I don’t want to say this, it’s just that the incident at the steel workshop was too shocking, I’m afraid his small body won’t be able to handle it. 】

[Forget it, let's wait until the steel is shipped back to Chang'an. 】

[At that time, if you have the real thing, you won't be afraid that he won't believe it. 】

After bidding farewell to Li Shimin, Li You embarked on a trip to Hexi again.

However, what Li You didn't expect was that his trip to Hexi this time was not peaceful at all!
