Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

There is no natural gas in Tianqi, so the floor heating that Gu Yanshu laid under the main courtyard will not be the water floor heating that everyone is used to in later generations.

On the contrary, it is somewhat similar to the kang in some areas of northern China, and it can also be said to be a common heating method in ancient Chinese palaces, earth dragon.

The principle is to lay a fire path underground, and then use the hot air flow to keep warm.

This kind of floor heating does not require high technology, and it can be laid without too much technical content.

After the apocalypse came, Gu Yanshu was located in the north, and the winter in Japan was very cold. Coupled with the impact of the apocalypse, the temperature difference between day and night and winter and summer became more and more obvious.

But at that time, Huaxia was cut off from gas and electricity for quite a period of time, and the original floor heating equipment could not be used at all.

So someone came up with this ancient way of heating.

I have to say that the effect is amazing, saving time and effort, but also enough to keep warm.

Later, even though China resumed its power supply and gas supply, people in the last days still used this method of heating.

Naturally, Gu Yanshu's residence has also been renovated with such floor heating. During the renovation and construction, Gu Yanshu not only saw the design drawings, but also went to the site himself.

When the main courtyard of the Wangfu was being repaired, the weather was already getting colder. Gu Yanshu naturally moved this kind of floor heating to the main courtyard of the Wangfu without thinking about it.

Now hearing the inquiries from the ministers, Gu Yanshu did not hide any secrets, and directly told everyone about the floor heating currently used in Prince Li's Mansion and its principles.

However, although these ministers were able to eloquently and write poems casually, they were confused and didn't know what Gu Yanshu was talking about at this time.

Looking at his expression, Gu Yanshu also noticed that the ministers might not understand.

After a moment of contemplation, I stopped talking about the principle of floor heating:

"Actually, floor heating is not a profound thing. The craftsmen who repaired and constructed the palace have also learned how to lay it. If you adults need it, just leave these trivial matters to the craftsmen."

Gu Yanshu's words can be said to awaken the dreamer.

Those ministers were still struggling with what the thermal air flow that Gu Yanshu was talking about was, and how to lay the fire path.

Now suddenly reacted:

That's right, they didn't lay the floor heating themselves, why did they have to understand the principle?

As long as there is a way to make it available at home, wouldn’t it be great?

Even if someone took it with a smile

Huayu:

"The old minister is getting old, and his body is getting weaker every year. When it comes to winter, he feels uncomfortable. In the past, five or six charcoal basins in the house were not enough. Today, when I came to Prince Li's mansion, I felt a lot more relaxed. If the old minister's home It can also be installed with floor heating, and it must be much easier in winter, I don’t know this craftsman..."

As soon as these words came out, before Gu Yanshu had time to nod his head in agreement, some of the other people sitting aside couldn't help it:

"I said, Mr. Hai, you are old, but I am not young. To be honest, I am half a year older than you! Your Highness Princess Li knows that this old minister is also in poor health. It's sad, because of the wind blowing a few days ago, it was cold, so this craftsman..."

The first half of this person's sentence was extremely rude to his colleagues, but when he turned his head to talk to Gu Yanshu, he was more polite, and even looked pitiful.

Gu Yanshu was amazed at the speed of face-changing.

However, the minister's actions and words seemed to inspire others.

Without even giving Gu Yanshu a chance to speak, they started their performance one by one.

In order to allow themselves to use the floor heating earlier, these courtiers can be said to do everything they can to fight for their own welfare.

So Gu Yanshu watched the classic drama pieces performed by different ministers in just a quarter of an hour——

Sichuan Opera changed face.

I saw these ministers first ranting against their colleagues:

What are you older?I'm a year older than you and haven't spoken yet, what's more, some say I'm a few days older than my colleagues.

Then it was miserable, getting older, in poor health, and winter was hard.

Some days ago, he contracted the wind and cold, and he just woke up from the cold last night, and so on, he just opened his mouth.

In conclusion, the core idea is that I want to ask Gu Yanshu to borrow a craftsman.

In other words, I want Gu Yanshu to give priority to lending craftsmen to them.

While applauding in his heart, Gu Yanshu said that old fritters who have been ups and downs in the officialdom have an Oscar per capita, and the ancients are not deceived.

On the one hand, I also know that among these people, it is best not to offend any of them.

This may be embarrassing for others.

After all, the number of craftsmen is limited, and it is impossible to lend to Lord Sun if they are lent to Lord Hai, and it is impossible to lend to Lord Shen again if they are lent to Lord Qi.

But for Gu Yanshu, it was an extremely simple matter.

When the ministers finally finished their performance, they all blinked their eyes and looked at Gu Yanshu, waiting

When he made his final decision, Gu Yanshu spoke:

"My Lord understands your thoughts, but you also know that the number of craftsmen is really limited, and they cannot satisfy you at the same time. Now there is a method in this hall, which can barely satisfy your thoughts. I don't know if you are willing to accept it."

"What way?"

"Why don't you tell me first?"

All the ministers understood the truth. Originally, the ministers were already prepared to line up. Now they are all satisfied with Gu Yanshu's words. How can there be any reason to refuse, so they hurriedly asked.

Gu Yanshu didn't hold back, and directly expressed his thoughts:

"Although the number of craftsmen who repaired the main courtyard of the palace was limited, there were more than [-] craftsmen. Why don't we draw a picture of the floor heating flue in this hall, and then send one person to each of your lords' mansions to lay the floor heating for you. That's just it. Once it comes, I'm afraid the speed will slow down a little."

"This is a good idea!"

"If everyone can use it at the same time, it doesn't matter if it's slower!"

The ministers have worked together for more than ten years. Don't look at the red faces just now, in fact, no matter who hired the craftsman first, others will not have any dissatisfaction.

Now that there is a way to get the best of both worlds, of course I don't care about the disadvantage of being slower.

After knowing that my own home can also use floor heating, someone asked about the glass greenhouse in Gu Yan Academy.

This time to repair the main courtyard of the Wangfu, Gu Yanshu built a glass greenhouse in the main courtyard.

The area occupied by the greenhouse is not large, but it is not too small, and it is relatively conspicuous in the main courtyard of the palace.

Many ministers saw it when they first entered the courtyard, just because they were worried about the identities of Qin Lu and Gu Yanshu at that time.

Gu Yanshu asked people to build that glass greenhouse because he was fed up with the days when Tianqi couldn't eat green vegetables as soon as winter came.

Although the chef in the palace is good and the meat is delicious, but if you eat too much, you will get tired.

But there are no vegetables for sale in winter. In this case, Gu Yanshu can only think of doing it himself, so that he can have enough food and clothing.

So that glass greenhouse is actually a greenhouse built by Gu Yanshu for growing vegetables.

It's just that the vegetables haven't been sown yet, and Gu Yanshu doesn't know if he can succeed.

So when someone mentioned the glass greenhouse, Gu Yanshu was stunned for a moment before giving the answer:

"That's a glass greenhouse. For example, when the weather is colder or raining, some delicate flowers and plants can be moved in, which can improve the

odds of survival. "

When the ministers heard this, they all nodded in sudden realization.

And there are a few ministers who love flowers, and they suddenly think about it:

Some flowers and plants are indeed delicate and cannot be exposed to the wind or rain. If they are crushed by snow in winter, they may fail the next day.

However, there is still some happy light. If there is no light during the day, it will be a lot wilted the next day.

For these delicate flowers, these ministers have worked hard, moving them out to shine in the sun during the day, and moving them into the house at night to prevent them from being broken by the wind.

But no matter how hard you are, you will occasionally forget because of your busy political affairs.

If the weather is good, that's all. If the weather is bad, maybe months or even years of hard work will go to waste overnight.

This glass greenhouse can ensure the light and avoid the wind and rain at the same time. Wouldn't that save them a lot of worry?

As for some ministers who are not very interested in flowers, they also feel a little moved when they think of their ancestors or wives and daughters of Xihua.

Of course, this time, these ministers did not ask Gu Yanshu for the greenhouse again.

After all, he only received the floor heating design and craftsmen from Prince Li's mansion, so it would be a bit greedy to ask for a glass greenhouse again.

Princess Li also said just now that when Tao Ranju opens, she can come to buy glass, and at that time, it will not be too late to add a glass greenhouse to her mansion.

Who is Gu Yanshu?From the changes in the expressions on the faces of some veterans, we can also see the thoughts in their hearts.

He couldn't help picking up the teacup in front of him, and used it as a cover for the corners of his lips that could not be controlled.

After a banquet, it can be said that the host and guest enjoyed themselves.

When the show was over, Gu Yanshu did not forget to ask the servants in the mansion to present this gift, which is another reason why these ministers came to Prince Li's mansion:

magnifier.

After a banquet, the ministers not only got magnifying glasses and reading glasses, but also got glass and floor heating, so they were naturally overjoyed.

Of course, the happiest among them are Mr. Pei, the chief assistant, and Mr. Wen, the scholar of the Imperial Academy.

After everyone left, Master Wen found an opportunity to speak to Gu Yanshu alone.

Gu Yanshu had just sent away a minister here, and when he turned around, he saw Wen Xuefei standing aside.

Even before he had time to stop him, Wen Xuefei had already saluted Gu Yanshu:

"Qing Xiao has already told the lower official about the matter, Princess Li's great kindness, the lower official will never forget it."

It is said that the eldest grandson and the younger son

, the lifeblood of the elderly.

Wen Qingxiao is Wen Xuefei's youngest son, and it is also Wen Xuefei's unexpected joy to have a son in his old age, so he is naturally extremely doted on.

Later, after Wen Qingxiao encountered a series of accidents, he was devastated and stayed behind closed doors. Naturally, Wen Xuefei saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.

After exhausting all means and failing to get Wen Qingxiao to walk out of the room on his own initiative, Wen Xuefei could only choose to meet Wen Qingxiao's request and let it go.

He never thought that there would be a day when his son would come out again.

Now seeing Wen Qingxiao walk out of the haze, and being entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Gu Yanshu, how could Wen Xuefei not be grateful?

"Master Wen please get up quickly, the hall actually didn't do anything."

However, Gu Yanshu felt that he was ashamed of receiving this great gift. Wen Qingxiao came out by himself and had nothing to do with him.

He hurried forward and helped Wen Xuefei up.

Wen Xuefei didn't think so:

"In the past two years, Qingxiao has been taken care of by Mr. Gu, and His Royal Highness valued him so that he can cheer up today. He deserves this worship."

When Gu Yanli was mentioned, Gu Yanshu couldn't refute it anymore, he couldn't deny the credit for his elder brother:

"Since that's the case, let Sixth Master Wen pay more attention to the newspaper in the future, which is to repay the hall."

Before Wen Xuefei could speak this time, he heard Wen Qingxiao's voice first:

"Could it be that you haven't done enough in your work, which made Her Royal Highness Princess Li dissatisfied?"

It doesn't seem like a question, but more like a joke.

Gu Yanshu raised his eyes, and saw Wen Qingxiao, who was still talking to Shoufu just now, coming from the side.

Smiling slightly, he hastily cupped his hands at him:

"No, no, the sixth son has done his best, how can he be dissatisfied?"

"If you can get such an answer from His Highness, I will be relieved."

There was also a slight smile in Wen Qingxiao's eyes.

Wen Xuefei, who was standing aside, was still thinking about when his youngest son started to be so unruly, and started to learn to interrupt rashly.

After seeing the communication between the two, Dang even knew that the relationship between the sixth son and Princess Li was always closer than he imagined.

Dang even swallowed the words that came to his lips to repay Gu Yanshu:

Since the two have such a friendship, it would not be good for him to talk about repaying.

If Princess Li needs it in the future, the Wen family will give it more convenience.

Sensing the change in Wen Xuefei's attitude, Gu Yanshu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart:

The elder brother has a very close friendship with Wen Qingxiao, and he himself has a good friendship with him.

If Mr. Wen insisted on the attitude just now, he really didn't know how to respond.

The last few people talked a little more before Wen Xuefei got up to leave.

When going back, Wen Qingxiao didn't let the people in the Wang's mansion see him off, presumably he was planning to go directly back to the Hanlin Scholars' Mansion with Mrs. Wen.
