I receive courier in Datang

Chapter 258 The shock caused by a piece of paper

Undecided when things happen, ancient sages.

Now Li Chengqian encounters any unexplainable things, she will use the four words of ancient sages, these four words are really comfortable to use!
When Li Shaoqian took this book, his hand sank suddenly. It was too heavy, almost as heavy as such a big brick. He didn't expect that Li Chengqian had such a thick book.

Li Shaoqian asked: "His Royal Highness, there is one thing I don't understand. Why are the books of the ancient sages made of such good paper? No, shouldn't the books of the ancient sages be bamboo slips?"

Blind student, have you finally discovered Huadian?

Li Chengqian smiled awkwardly: "Haha, this book is a remade book. Of course it used to be a book made of bamboo slips, but such a book is definitely not suitable for you, and you can't understand it."

Li Shaoqian looked at Li Chengqian suspiciously, he was not sure whether what Li Chengqian said was true or not.

"Okay, I will memorize this book completely." Li Shaoqian said.

"It's not for you to memorize this book and it's over. You have to master it all. After mastering it, it will be yours." Li Chengqian said.

"Yes."

Li Shaoqian nodded. He knew the importance of this matter. To broaden his horizons, the most important thing was to go outside on a big boat and take a look.

Prince's Mansion.

When Li Chengqian was eating, he seemed to say it by accident, and asked: "Does anyone know what happened to the house with a swimming pool on the roof I designed? I heard Du He said that the house was built, but there was no People tell me."

The servants all lowered their heads and dared not answer.

Li Chengqian asked: "Xiao Ningzi, tell me."

Xiao Ningzi: "Since no one has told His Highness the Crown Prince about this, it means it hasn't been built yet."

Li Chengqian smiled slightly: "Really? This is not something easy to say. If you say that, if something happens, I will trouble you."

Xiao Ningzi almost fell down in fright.

"Your Highness, should I go find someone?" Xiao Ningzi asked.

"Go."

Xiao Ningzi hurried to find someone, and he went directly to the Ministry of Industry.

"Yan Shangshu, I don't know what's going on. His Royal Highness thinks about the swimming house. What should I do? Find out the person in charge of this house and let me go to work." Xiao Ningzi said.

Yan Lide said that it is better for him to go to this matter, others seem to be unable to bear the responsibility, Li Chengqian's anger is not something ordinary people can bear.

Yan Lide said: "Xiao Ningzi, you are suffering too. This is not your responsibility but ours. Let me go with you. I am naturally responsible for what happened."

Xiao Ningzi said: "This is not possible. You still have to sit here. If you are not here, can the Ministry of Industry do it?"

"Naturally."

The two arrived at the Prince's Mansion in a short time in a carriage. After Yan Lide entered the Prince's Mansion, like everyone else, he was surprised, the scenery here is so beautiful!

Sure enough, this glass room, they have to find time to study it.

However, the most important thing is to go find Li Chengqian again.

Not long after, he saw Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian was resting after eating. He was extremely surprised when he saw that the person who came was Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

You know, many projects are not in charge of the Minister of Industry, he only plays a coordinating role.

Even if Li Chengqian didn't have to think about it, Yan Lide was definitely not in charge of this house. What was he doing here?Is it to make it difficult for him to ask about this matter?

I'm sorry, Li Chengqian has always been the kind of person who doesn't care about things but not people. He doesn't care who did it. As long as it's not done well, he will find this person.

No matter how good this person is, others say how upright this person is, he will still take care of this person's troubles.

Being right about things and not being right about people is a necessary condition for a superior person, otherwise, it is very dangerous for a superior person to always be unable to make appropriate judgments about a person.

First of all, we must know that the world is constantly changing, and it is a kind of changing thinking to be right about things and wrong about people, and the variability of things is the essence.

Li Chengqian said: "I didn't expect Yan Shangshu to come in person, but I still have to say what I should say. Since the house is built, why didn't you tell me, I told you the construction method completely."

Yan Lide sighed, he began to recall the manufacturing process of this large building, it is indeed full of memories!

When the Ministry of Industry started this project, everyone was very excited. This house is really magical. Who has ever seen a house with a swimming pool on it!
Of course, everyone knows that there is a house with hot springs, which is a place for saints to cultivate themselves. They think that Li Chengqian should make a similar appearance, but this is on top.

However, after doing it well, they found serious problems.

The first point is the load-bearing problem. The roof of this house is too heavy. Are these pillars not enough? I don’t know where to start adding pillars. This was designed by Li Chengqian. If you want to increase it, it should be Li Chengqian. It's the right thing to do, but Li Chengqian doesn't seem to want to ask about this.

The second is the problem of water leakage. I don’t know why, but there are always water spots on the roof. Where did it come from?They don't know!
Therefore, the house just had to sit there and they kept thinking of ways to do it.

The most important thing is that this house was built by Li Chengqian and dedicated to Li Shimin, and there must be no mistakes in what he wants to give to the saint.

Just imagine, one day, the sage was resting in the cool air in the house, fell asleep, and a drop of water fell, what an oolong it would be!
Yan Lide said: "Your Highness, we have encountered two difficulties. One is that the roof is too heavy and we need to add pillars. The other is that the roof is leaking. The cement seems unreliable. We really can't think of a solution."

Li Chengqian thought silently, this house is indeed difficult to build, with large floor-to-ceiling windows, a wide view and is very beautiful, but there is a problem with the load bearing of this house?
It hadn't occurred to him that he wasn't a professional house designer.

Li Chengqian asked: "I don't think this matter should be difficult to solve, just add a few pillars?"

Yan Lide said: "It's not that simple. These pillars have already been built. Adding them rashly now will definitely not conform to the previous design. There may be gaps. These pillars were added for nothing."

Li Chengqian was taken aback, what does this mean?Are Baijia's pillars okay?How could he not feel right?

Li Chengqian said: "In this case, add three walls and leave only one wall to make a large floor-to-ceiling window."

Yan Lide was stunned. The best thing about this house is the large floor-to-ceiling windows on all sides. Doesn't this make sense?
He said: "This is a solution, but if this is the case, the house will not be so powerful, and the saint may be dissatisfied."

Li Chengqian said: "Not satisfied? No, he will be really dissatisfied if you can't build this house for a long time!"

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Yan Lide thought about it, and it was indeed the case. It seemed that these things had to be taken into consideration.

"Then, Your Highness, how should we solve the problem of the roof leak?" Yan Lide asked.

Li Chengqian said: "What is not leaking?"

Yan Lide thought for a while and said: "Liu Li, glass, iron..."

Li Chengqian said: "Glass glass is not good, it's too troublesome, so use iron."

Yan Lide said: "Your Highness, please clarify."

Li Chengqian said: "I heard that there is a technique called golden jade clothes, which is to beat gold continuously until it becomes a very thin paper. This paper should not leak water. If not, lay a few more layers. .”

Yan Lide opened his mouth wide and looked at Li Chengqian, he must be crazy!
The gold leaf did not come in vain!Gold leaf is a very precious thing, right?
Yan Lide said: "His Royal Highness, what you said is true? With such a design, the cost of this house will probably increase a lot. How will the money come from?"

Li Chengqian said: "Since you are doing things for me, don't talk about money. Money can make money, and I am not short of money."

Domineering!

Yan Lide had no choice but to say: "Let's go down and study right away."

"Go."

Not long after, Yan Lide found a few people from the Ministry of Industry who specialized in metal research and told them what Li Chengqian said.

They also had similar thoughts before, and they were still shocked when they heard what Li Chengqian said. It really was a great effort by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
To pave the roof with gold?If ordinary people do this, it is estimated that the roof will not be quiet at night, because they are all digging for gold!

Yan Lide asked: "Do you estimate how much this project will cost? I will send the budget to His Royal Highness the Prince and ask him to prepare the money for us."

A few people did the calculations, and it was about 20 guan. Labor and gold were all very expensive.

Breaking gold into paper requires more manpower than 01:30.

However, it seems that this process can be improved, such as putting these things in a hydraulic smasher.

With money, all problems are not a problem, they even found a piece of gold to test it first, it was really cool!

Throwing gold is simply the happiest thing in the world!Such a precious thing turns into thin paper bit by bit under their sledgehammer, how comfortable it is!
After a piece of gold leaf paper was made, they came up with a new idea, that is to write on this paper, the effect is a bit poor, it will fall off after drying, and it cannot be moved when it is not dry.

Everyone finally understands why they used to have the technology of gold leaf paper and why they didn’t use it for writing, because it’s really not easy to use!

Soon, samples of gold foil paper were delivered. Li Chengqian held a piece of gold foil paper and was a little curious. He tried it for a while and tore it apart easily.

"This gold foil paper isn't very good, it just tore open casually! It's boring, if the current technology is not good, I have to use the metal of aerospace technology!" Li Chengqian thought to himself.

"His Royal Highness, this gold foil paper is indeed feasible, but I don't know how many layers should be laid?"

Li Chengqian thought about it, nine is the ultimate number, so why not lay nine floors.

Li Chengqian said: "Nine."

The visitor was surprised: "Ninth floor?"

"Yes, the ninth floor, what do you think?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Sure enough, it's His Royal Highness. A stranger who knows this number will be very happy."

Since nine floors are required, manpower cannot be used, and hydraulic power is used instead, which is much simpler.

Li Shimin knew about this, so he was silent. Originally, Li Chengqian was so extravagant and wasteful, he must take care of it, but the point is, the number nine is really used in his heart.

In the end, he decided to turn a blind eye and close one eye, as long as Wei Zheng didn't come to him, he wouldn't care about it.

After Wei Zheng knew about this, what he thought of was the improvement of the technology, gold leaf can be used for roof waterproofing?
This is indeed a pioneering work, although it is a bit expensive, but it is indeed a pioneering work.

He even went to find out about it.

Gold is actually the most suitable metal for this job. No other metal is as malleable as gold. In other words, gold foil paper is easier to make than iron paper.

Having said that, he has never encountered even the words iron paper put together!
Wei Zheng didn't say anything, but Kong Yingda found a chance. After he found out about this, he found an opportunity to trouble Li Chengqian.

"Golden House Cangjiao! His Royal Highness actually wants to build a golden house!"

"His Royal Highness is too inhumane to waste people and money!"

……

Many people were talking about this, and Li Chengqian smiled slightly after knowing it.

He released the news that this house was built by Li Shimin. Of course, the first thing he did was that the news had nothing to do with him.

Li Shimin was furious when he heard these rumors.

"Bastard! What is it that is ruining my reputation outside? The good reputation I have accumulated with great difficulty is gone!" Li Shimin said.

Wang De quickly said: "Sage, please calm down. It seems that the group of people from the Imperial College are doing this. Kong Yingda asked them to go out and talk about it."

Li Shimin suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "I brought him here, and I wanted to ask him why he couldn't get along with me. Wei Zheng only stopped for a few days, and then he came? This is taking turns, right?"

Wang De hurried to find Kong Yingda.

"Master Kong, the saint wants to see you." Wang De said.

"I don't know what the saint wants me for?" Kong Yingda asked.

"The saint wants to ask you something, you just need to answer it when the time comes." Wang De said.

Kong Yingda and Wang De went to Lizheng Palace.

"Kong Yingda, what did the students of Guozijian say outside recently? I have heard it a little bit. If you have any dissatisfaction with me, then come to me. Why do you want my reputation outside?" Li Shimin asked.

Kong Yingda said: "I just let them say that His Royal Highness used gold to build a house too ostentatiously, is there something wrong?"

Li Shimin said: "It's just some decorations, what's the importance? Besides, go out and listen, they are all saying that I shouldn't build this house!"

Kong Yingda was taken aback, what's going on?He doesn't even know!
Kong Yingda said: "The minister is guilty."

Li Shimin said: "You are getting old, go home to take care of yourselves, I will arrange other people for the Imperial College."

Kong Yingda reluctantly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

In fact, can he still control the Imperial College? It's just that the name is not justified.

Li Shimin began to think about how to completely separate this old guy from the Imperial College.
