Chapter 196 Cheng Yaojin: Your Majesty, there is something strange in my cowshed

These craftsmen can forget anyone, but they will never forget Liu Xuan.

When they were in the most difficult time and couldn't survive, it was Liu Xuan who gave them a chance to live.

When they were starving to death, Liu Xuan recruited workers and gave them a bowl of rice.

After so many days, every craftsman in the factory worked hard and refused to rest.

Human nature is lazy.

But here, everything seems different.

You say they won't cheat or slack off?

That's naturally impossible.

Because of Liu Xuan's kindness, they would rather work more now, otherwise they will always feel uneasy.

The relationship between people in this era, especially among this group of people, is still relatively simple.

Liu Xuan nodded: "How is it? Can the hammer be hammered out?"

The man nodded: "Please rest assured, Lord. If I can't hammer it out, Lord, take off my head and use it as a chamber pot!"

Liu Xuan looked at the guy's big head and shook his head: "I don't need such a big chamber pot."

The two blacksmiths grinned and sneered.

Liu Xuan motioned them to continue, and he walked to the open space on the other side.

At the end of this place is a bamboo forest, and behind the bamboo forest is a river. The weather is getting cold, and there seem to be fewer fish in the river. If it is winter, it will freeze.

Liu Xuan looked at the flat terrain beside the woods and waved to the corner on the side.

Liu Renyuan came out happily.

"Starting from here, along the river, build some workshop-like houses, connected into a piece..."

"This bamboo forest is great, a really good place."

Liu Renyuan scratched his head: "My Lord, what are you going to do?"

"Although bamboo grows well in this area, it can only grow bamboo. Building a house by the river, if the water rises..."

Liu Xuan waved his hand: "This river is just a small one. The reason why we build houses here is to make use of these bamboos."

"Look at these bamboos, how good they are."

Liu Xuan looked at the dense bamboo forest. It would be a pity if it was not used to make paper.

"Go to the river and dig some black mud with yellow..."

"Dig a few buckets..."

"Find some pine oil..."

...

Liu Xuan said more than a dozen things in succession, and Liu Renyuan nodded and remembered them all.

This is the most critical skill for being a guard around the emperor. Li Shimin only said some words once. After all, he might forget what he said when he wanted to repeat it.

But Liu Renyuan is smart, remember to ask, that's enough.

Papermaking is not difficult.

As for movable type printing, Liu Xuan, who was once skilled in making seals, has long realized that clay seals are most suitable for movable type printing.

In the past, Liu Xuan was in the technological society of the future, and did not realize that innovation would improve productivity.

Today, Liu Xuan suddenly understood one thing, that various technologies are simply natural dimensionality reduction attacks.

Once movable type printing and papermaking are available, as long as the cost can be controlled, it won't take long for Liu Xuan to become the owner of the largest printing factory in the Tang Dynasty.

In addition, Liu Xuan's identity as Lantian Hou.

This... I dare not think about it...

...

In the palace, three big men stood in front of Li Shimin.

Although they were strong and healthy, they were trembling in front of Li Shimin.

"I'm not saying anything to you, but can you please have some shame?"

"I asked you to educate your son, but you went straight to Liu Xuan."

"Who is Liu Xuan? He is the Marquis of Lantian in the Tang Dynasty. He has so many things to do every day. How can he have so much time?"

These words confused Cheng Yaojin.

No, Your Majesty, you are too good at making up stories. It's normal for the Marquis of Lantian to spend so much time cooking and taking care of several children every day, right?

Besides, Liu Xuan has agreed to use stories to enlighten our little son. We are not in a hurry, so why are you in a hurry?

It's true that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is...

"Your Majesty is right." There are thousands of thoughts in the mind, but they don't count when they come out.

Cheng Yaojin grinned: "Hehe, Your Majesty, you are wise and brave, so naturally the princes are also very smart."

"I am different. You know, my eldest son is always causing trouble..."

Li Shimin sighed helplessly: "It's not your fault."

"Back then, I was busy fighting, and you followed me to fight all over the country, so you didn't have time to take care of your family."

"It's just that I'm angry!"

Li Shimin gritted his teeth: "I trust you the most, but your children are not very capable. I am teased by the five surnames and seven families every day. The Lu family of Fanyang is a family of poetry and books, and the Wang family of Taiyuan is also not good at talking, not to mention other families."

"You should fight for your dignity and let them see that my confidants have successors and are both civil and military!"

"Can you be a little tougher?"

After saying this, Cheng Yaojin and the other two blushed.

Li Shimin was also very angry when he saw the three people blushing and thick necks.

There is no need to fight in the world now, but Li Shimin feels that it seems to be more difficult than the days of fighting in the past.

Those civil officials are more cunning than each other.

Or these military generals are simple and honest.

"Cheng Zhijie, Niu Jinda, Yuchi Gong, the three of you, go to Liu Xuan when you have nothing to do. This method of teaching children must be figured out as soon as possible."

"I plan to go to Mount Tai next summer."

Li Shimin was full of pride. After the Fengshan ceremony, it was time to take action against the Five Surnames and Seven Families.

The timing is not right now. After all, if you take action against the core of one of the Five Surnames and Seven Families, countless officials will immediately plead for mercy.

You don't even know where these officials came from.

It's not easy to be an emperor. If you kill the Five Surnames and Seven Families directly.

Tomorrow you will find that most of the court is paralyzed.

They have students everywhere, relatives everywhere, classmates everywhere, and friends everywhere.

It's really hard to deal with the complicated relationship.

Cheng Yaojin and the other two grinned: "Your Majesty, I will go to find Liu Xuan in a while."

"Something weird happened in my house last night. I don't know what happened to the cow, it just went crazy. I told you that the feng shui of the cowshed is not good, but the national teacher just refused to go and see us..."

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Okay, okay, I know, you can leave."

Li Shimin didn't want to hear any more stories about Cheng Yaojin and the cow in Cheng Yaojin's family.

Walking out of the imperial study, Cheng Yaojin and the other two looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you say it when we were eating beef? Now he is unhappy when we say we are killing cows."

The three walked out and saw a sinister man with narrowed eyes and his hands behind his back.

"Isn't this Lord Sikong!"

"I heard that your son is very brave. He smashed 10,000 strings of colored glaze in the West Market?"

Cheng Yaojin asked maliciously.
