Stunning beauty

Changsun House.

main hall.

Li Ziye, who harmed others and benefited himself, finally made the fourth prince Mu Bai, who had always had a calm heart, unable to sit still.

At the side, Murong saw that his brother was about to explode, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull him.

With so many people here, it's not good to fight.

"Brother Li!"

Mu Bai said with burning eyes, "I haven't competed with Brother Li for more than a year, why don't we go out and compete."

"Don't go."

Hearing this, Li Ziye refused without hesitation.

Learn from each other?

What a fart!

If he goes out, he will be beaten, and he is not stupid.

Mu Bai stood there, staring at the young man in front of him, if his gaze could kill someone, someone would have been trapped into a hornet's nest.

"Bai'er!"

On the main seat, Empress Changsun saw this and lightly reprimanded, "Don't be rude."

"Brother."

Beside Mu Bai, Murong also grabbed his elder brother with all his might, and forcibly dragged him back to his seat.

Beside Li Ziye, the eldest grandson Fengyu was drinking tea with a face full of cold sweat, not daring to say anything or ask anything.

He can't afford to offend everyone here!

Unexpectedly, he, the dignified and loyal son of King Wu, would have such a humble day.

"Professor Li."

On the main seat, Empress Changsun looked at the young man in front of her, and said seriously, "You have to think about it, it's better to settle your marriage earlier, otherwise, it is very likely that there will be troubles like your elder sister again. Meaning, you should understand."

When Li Ziye heard the words, his expression became serious, and he said, "I understand what the empress thinks, don't worry, I know this matter well."

"That's good."

Empress Changsun nodded, and didn't say much on this issue. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "Actually, I have one more thing to do when I invite Professor Li to come here today."

At this point, Empress Changsun's eyes narrowed slightly, and she said, "Previously, Li Jiaoxi suggested that Bai'er build a mining department. What's going on? I can understand the mining of oil reservoirs. What you did in Mobei has been passed down. All over the world, and the Mobei Eight Departments use crude oil to attack the city, His Majesty also intends to find oil deposits in Dashang territory and exploit them, but what are coal mines, is it worth spending so much effort to find them?"

"worth."

Li Ziye said sternly, "Your Majesty, you should know that these years, the winter has become longer and colder, and the common people are struggling to live. Although we have tried our best to speed up the production of charcoal, the supply of charcoal is still in short supply, and the price is getting higher and higher. Gao, there is no way around it, after all, the consumption of charcoal is too great, ordinary people’s houses can’t afford to burn for a winter, but if we can find raw coal mines, this problem can be solved to a large extent.”

Speaking of this, Li Ziye paused for a moment, and continued, "After the coal mine is mined, it can be used for heating with simple processing, which is very convenient. The most important thing is that the coal mine is naturally formed with huge reserves. A large-scale The raw coal in the coal mine is enough to supply the entire large business for several years, or even ten years."

On the main seat, Empress Changsun was shocked when she heard the words.

Over ten years?

On the side, the eldest grandson Nanqiao also reacted, and his mind was shocked.

She has been in business for many years, so of course she can understand how amazing what the Li family boy said.

If Li Ziye's words are true, this coal mine will become something that affects the national economy and people's livelihood of the entire Dashang.

Correspondingly, the wealth it can bring is limitless.

"I see."

On the main seat, Empress Changsun recovered from the shock, and said in disbelief, "I still didn't understand before that Li Jiaoxi had a good relationship with Bai'er, but he taught the eleventh prince how to resist Mobei's iron cavalry. , It turns out that what Li Jiaoxi has left for Bai'er has far surpassed any military exploits."

At this point, Empress Changsun stood up, bowed to the young man in front of her, and said, "This kindness, I have recorded it."

This is a great kindness, a kindness that is enough to change the structure of the court.

"do not!"

On the seat, Li Ziye jumped up in fright when he saw this, and hurriedly avoided, not daring to accept this gift, and said with a wry smile, "Empress, you are an elder. .”

"elder sister."

Beside the chief seat, the eldest grandson Nanqiao couldn't help but smile when he saw someone's frightened expression, and said, "What Li Jiaoxi said makes sense, so don't scare him."

Not far away, Murong seemed to understand something, and the turmoil in his heart could not be concealed.

It turned out that Li Jiaoxi had given such a great kindness to his elder brother.

aside.

Mu Bai stared at the young man in front of him, his gaze also became complicated.

Previously, when he proposed the establishment of the Mining Department, he did not say this.

"Little guy, why are you so generous this time?"

Beside the chief seat, the eldest grandson Nanqiao put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile, "I remember back then, when my eldest grandson's family wanted to cooperate with your Li family for a little business, you were pushing and haggling over every detail. Now, such a huge sum Wealth, give it away as soon as you say it, it's not like your style."

"I can't help it."

Li Ziye gave a wry smile, and told the truth, "The laws of Dashang do not allow private mining. Although no one knew about coal mines before, it is still a mine. I dare not take advantage of the loopholes in the law. After thinking about it, I decided to give it to the four Your Highness, Fourth Highness eats meat, how can you save some soup for my Li family?"

In the hall, Empress Changsun and others couldn't help laughing when they heard the words.

These words are very true.

"Bai'er."

Empress Changsun moved her gaze away, looked at her son-in-law not far away, and reminded, "Don't disappoint Li Jiaoxi's intentions, this matter must be done well."

"Ah."

Mu Bai nodded lightly in response.

"Then how to find and mine mines?" Eldest Sun Nanqiao asked with a smile.

"I will inform Fourth Highness in detail." Li Ziye replied helplessly.

In this era, we can only look for open-pit coal mines, it's not difficult, this baby knows how.

Speaking of which, he is really good at everything except martial arts.

Li Ziye was depressed, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to calm down his sad mood.

Sitting on the seat, Mu Bai seemed to think of something, looked at the young man in front of him, and asked, "Brother Li, how is the progress of your Flying Immortal Art?"

"No. 40 five-fold change." Li Ziye replied casually.

"So fast?" Mu Bai asked in surprise.

"hey-hey."

Li Ziye smiled, showing pride, and said, "Isn't it amazing?"

"Competition?"

Mu Bai said seriously, "You have to compete with experts more!"

"No."

Li Ziye shook his head like a rattle and said, "I can't beat you."

"It doesn't matter if you can't beat it, just try your best."

Mu Bai said seriously, "Huo Lin'er and I should be on par in strength, if you want to defeat Huo Lin'er, you must pass my level."

Hearing this, Li Ziye showed hesitation.

It seems that there is a little truth in it.

Or, make gestures?

on the main seat.

Empress Changsun looked puzzled, what Huo Lin'er?

On the side, the eldest grandson Nanqiao saw this and explained softly, "My sister is in the palace, so she may not know that the master of the third son of the Li family, Plum Blossom Sword Immortal, has an agreement with the old suzerain of the Vermilion Bird Sect. Huo Lin'er, the saintess of the Vermilion Bird Sect, seems to be betting on something, but I don't know the exact situation."

"There is such a thing."

Empress Changsun heard it and said in surprise.

She had heard from Bai'er that Li Jiaoxi's martial arts talent was actually very average, not as outstanding as the outside world said.

"it is good!"

On the seat, Li Ziye got up and said imposingly, "Hit it!"
