Li Shimin

"Cui Wulang doesn't need to worry, as long as His Majesty agrees to build this road, you can let the road construction department open a cement workshop near Qingzhou, and you can start building cement roads in Qingzhou and Chang'an City at the same time!"

Li Xuan said.

Now, the more Li Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was feasible.

Luoyang is the eastern capital, and there are many big families gathered in it.As Henan Province is in the Central Plains, there are countless aristocratic families. As long as this matter is brought up, more than half of the officials in the court will agree without Li Shimin's consent.

Cui Hongmo and Zheng Mingde both looked shocked, and then Cui Hongmo's expression brightened.

On the other hand, Zheng Mingde quickly said: "Your Majesty, you can also open a cement workshop in Xingyang, so that you can build cement roads from Xingyang to Qingzhou and Chang'an at the same time!"

"This king can naturally think of this matter!" Li Xuan said calmly.

"Hey, Your Majesty is wise!"

Zheng Mingde didn't take it seriously.

How good the cement road is, I am afraid that no one in the world knows better than him.

After the two said goodbye to Li Xuan, they walked on the wide and flat concrete road in the village. Both Zheng Mingde and Cui Hongmo were beaming with joy.

As long as the cement road is repaired, what kind of expression will all those aristocratic children who laughed at them before have?

"Zheng Balang, what kind of expression do you have?"

Suddenly, Cui Hongmo stopped and asked Zheng Mingde who was beside him.

"Cui Wulang, someone first met the king!" Zheng Mingde said.

"But we are cooperating with the king at the same time!"

Cui Hongmo didn't give in at all.

"What's the matter, now we should build a concrete road for a certain Zheng's family first?"

As he said that, Zheng Mingde couldn't help jumping a few times, feeling the solidity under his feet, and his face was full of pride.

"Hmph, in a few days, a girl from a certain family will be Princess Jin!"

Cui Hongmo chuckled, stomped his feet lightly, and walked forward with a happy face.

"If there is no sister from a certain family, King Jin will not build a concrete road for Er Xingyang..."

Behind him, Zheng Mingde froze in place, his face full of depression!

Trippiff, Shuzi!

Isn't there an older girl who can't marry, what's so proud of?

After a while, Zheng Mingde sighed softly, turned his head and looked around enviously, the surrounding construction site, and the two wide and flat concrete roads that had been built, then quickened his pace and headed for Chang'an City .

Regardless of whether the City Construction Department and the Road Construction Department are a blessing or a curse to their aristocratic families, the cement road is real, and they must be the first to snatch away other aristocratic families and make a decision on this matter.

Chapter 226

……

After returning to Zheng's house, Zheng Mingde hurriedly wrote letters, especially about the two concrete roads in Li's village, which took up half a page.

Put it in a sealed long and thin post box, hand it over to the confidant servant, and ask him to send it to the ancestral home in Xingyang urgently.

Not far from the next door, Cui Hongmo was also sitting in the study of another courtyard, doing the same movements.

However, Cui Hongmo's demeanor was not in a hurry.

……

"Hahaha, Li Baoding, you bastard, you will be my master's disciple from now on!"

In the small courtyard, Li Xuan had a happy expression on his face.

Just now, Li Shimin asked Li Xiaogong to bring the imperial edict, announcing that Li Baoding will be King Huaiwei, and his previous fiefdoms and princes will remain unchanged.

The only change is that Li Baoding is no longer Li Xuan's heir, but restores his status as the legitimate son of Xiping King Li Qiong.

Regarding this change, Li Baoding couldn't tell what it was like, but facing Li Xuan again, he felt much more relaxed.

Let him be a ten-year-old boy, call Aye to a 19-year-old boy every day, and treat him like a father and son all the time, not only Li Xuan is very uncomfortable, but he is also not used to it.

Therefore, right after Li Xuan had finished speaking, Li Baoding bowed slightly to Li Xuan: "Baoding has met Master!"

"Very good!"

Li Xuan was very satisfied.

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others also had joyful expressions on their faces.

Only Li Yuan on the side, his expression unchanged, didn't know what to think about.

Inside the Li Family Village, everything is harmonious.

However, the big families in the Tang Dynasty were completely boiling with each letter!

"Interesting, what did His Majesty do to allow me to wait for the aristocratic family to pay for it and set up the Road Construction Department and the Housing Construction Department together with the imperial court?"

"Hehe, I don't know what that cement is, but it can give those majesties such great confidence?"

"Tsk tsk, first let me wait for the aristocratic family to spend the money for road construction, and then I can't intervene in the affairs of the housing construction department and the road construction department, and then divide the commercial taxes on the road equally according to the amount of money paid? Your Majesty, you want to share with me Waiting for the world's aristocratic family to make a business that is sure to make a profit?"

"Besides, after the concrete road that is comparable to slate tiles is completed, will the imperial court set up checkpoints in each city to collect business taxes?"

"For smooth and clean cement roads, whoever invests more money can decide who to pave first?"

"These things were actually created by that King Jin again. This guy, isn't it just something like that white folded cotton coat?"

"Why does this old man think that His Majesty is paying attention to the white wolf?"

"The two departments are still officials from the fourth grade..."

After reading the letter in their hands, all the patriarchs of the aristocratic families either sneered or pondered.

"Patriarch, should I ignore it? Or..."

"Huh? I agree, why don't I answer! Prepare the car, the old man has to go to Chang'an in person!"

"Come here, prepare a car for the old man, the old man is going to Chang'an!"

After reading it, all the patriarchs of the aristocratic families got into the carriage one after another, brought a few guards, and hurried to Chang'an City.

The weather is so warm, it is not as cold as winter, the speed of the carriage is much faster.

It was less than five days since Li Shimin told the story of Road Jiansi and Fang Jiansi in the morning, and more than a dozen motorcades from aristocratic families have hurriedly arrived in Chang'an City.

Outside Lijiazhuang Village, there are convoys passing by every day.

Every convoy stopped for a while.

"Patriarch, it is said that the gray house is made of cement. Su Guogong even tried it with a crossbow. At a distance of [-] steps, the crossbow can only shoot a small piece of that house!"

"Patriarch, it only took five days for the general supervisor to build these two concrete roads for Lijiazhuang, and such a long cement road has already been repaired!"

"Patriarch, this kind of cement road is solid and smooth. If our family has this kind of road, we don't have to worry about rain and snow anymore..."

There is no need for Chu Suiliang and the others to introduce, when the patriarch of each aristocratic family walks around in Lijiazhuang, there will be a person in the crowd who is particularly familiar with the situation in Lijiazhuang.

Regarding this, Li Xuan was also a little puzzled.

He remembered that before this, absolutely no one watched the process of building a house on the road that would be used as a supervisor. How come so many people seemed to see it with their own eyes!

However, Li Xuan was too lazy to talk to these aristocratic tourists!

You can look at it however you like, anyway, this small village of this king is just a model room!

"Master, from Chenshi to Shenshi, a total of thirteen families have come here today!"

Inside the room, Li Baoding reported to Li Xuan with a serious face.

"It seems that the establishment of the Housing Construction Department and the Road Construction Department has directly penetrated into the hearts of these aristocratic families!"

Li Xuan laughed lightly.

"Hey, master, you don't know that there are most families in Chang'an City. Walking on the street, if you bump into a rich man, he might be the head of a certain family!" Cheng Chusi said.

"The streets in Chang'an City are so wide, why do you insist on bumping into others?"

Li Xuan looked at Cheng Chusi and asked in surprise.

"Forehead!"

Cheng Chusi was astonished.

"Master, this is just an analogy, it's just an analogy..."

"This king doesn't care about those things. I just want to know, is there any family to provide clues to the turtle grandson of King Yin Ben who is behind the scenes?"

Li Xuan said calmly.

"Master, it must be the ghost of a certain family behind the scenes. These aristocratic families are connected with each other, so they may not tell us!"

Cheng Chusi said slowly.

"When my brothers and sisters are going to turn against each other, I don't believe it. Those families are all monolithic!" Li Xuan snorted coldly.

Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and the others couldn't help but turn pale and dared not speak.

Seeing this, Li Xuan also felt a sudden change in his heart, and immediately changed the subject.

"It's been such a long time, the supervisor should have already built the chicken pens, duck pens, and pig pens that the king wanted."

"Returning to Master, the chicken pen and duck pen have been built, and the pig pen is only a few rooms away, and it can be completed!"

Li Baoding bowed his hands and said slowly.

"Didn't expect it to be so fast?"

Li Xuan was taken aback.

Forehead!

Li Baoding was also full of astonishment.

You were still talking about whether it has already been built, why do you dislike the fast construction again?

"What I mean is that those little chickens and ducks are not ready yet. Moreover, the hogs are not ready yet! The chicken pen, duck pen, and pig pen are almost ready, so shouldn't they be ready?" Are you ready for the chicks and ducklings?"

Li Xuan made a haha, and asked quickly.

"Where is Li Chang?"

"Return to Master, Steward Li is in the construction site below, watching over those craftsmen who are not working!" Li Baoding said hastily.

"Who cares about the work?"

Li Xuandao: "Let's go, let's go see the king's breeding base!"

"Yes, Master!"

Li Baoding clapped his hands in response.

When Li Xuan and the others went down, the butler Li Chang was wandering around the ground with an iron horn in his hand.

For a while, I looked at the foundation of the other courtyard, for a while, I looked at the chicken pen, and for a while, I lay down beside the cement road under construction, inspecting it seriously.

Although his temples had turned gray, the old man's legs ran very swiftly.

Li Xuan and the others chased from the east end to the west end, and finally intercepted Li Chang in the rice field!

"The villain pays homage to the king!"

Li Chang raised his head and looked shocked when he saw Li Xuan and the others.

"I don't know if Your Majesty is coming to the construction site today, but do you have any new ideas?"

"These rice fields have also been built?"

However, Li Xuan ignored Li Chang, but looked up curiously.

The [-] mu of wasteland that Chu Suiliang and Li Chang bought was completely black after being burned by the fire.
